Starting point is 00:00:00 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. I put on the blinders, I say I just do it. You heard it with your own eyes. But gah! All right, welcome the Young Turks live from the Polymarker Studio in L.A. In fact, Francesca is also live from the studio in L.A.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Look at this, that's amazing. I'm just pretending. Yeah, before we weren't sure, but now she's actually live. I'm actually here. Right. So it's real. It was never AI generated unless this is too, just like Kamala's plane and crowds, which is a story we're going to get to.
Starting point is 00:01:12 Lots of fun in today's show. Donald Trump has lost his mind on about 13 different counts. We're going to go through, I think, at least three of them. Yeah. And then in the second hour of the story of the show, we have some amazing stories too. The people of Texas are pissed about housing, and we have some amazing numbers for you guys about who might be at fault. Politicians, Greg Abbott, Republicans. We will talk more about that a little bit later.
Starting point is 00:01:41 All right. Frannie, what do you got for us? All right, let's jump in with this. The shameful raid and break-in of my home, Mar-a-Lago, was a travesty of justice? that made a mockery of America's laws, traditions, and principles before the entire world, the entire world was watching, and they're shocked. They're shocked. So after many years of complaining about political persecution into crimes, he probably did commit, Donald Trump is finally taking action and is going to be suing the DOJ for that raid over the
Starting point is 00:02:28 documents that I guess were not stolen. He's suing the DOJ for $100 million. That's how much they need the cash. Again, over that search back in 2022. Remember, this lawsuit comes after Judge Eileen Cannon already threw out the documents case. She just did that. Jack Smith is appealing it, who knows where it stands. But that has been thrown out. That's where it stands right now. And what that raid uncovered, if you guys don't remember, the documents in the bathroom, but more specifically, the FBI did search Mara Lago in August of 2022. They were covered more than 11,000 White House documents, including 103 classified ones. After it previously subpoenaed Trump over his remaining classified documents. But a reason to believe, he didn't turn them all over.
Starting point is 00:03:14 Again, he was indicted on 40 federal charges related to this from withholding national security information at Mar-a-Lago and obstructing those efforts to return them. Because again, he'd been warned that this was coming down the pike. This was going to be happening. He'd better return the documents. Is he sure he doesn't have him? Is he sure? And then, of course, they actually searched it.
Starting point is 00:03:35 And they did get a warrant to do that. But more about that lawsuit that his team is bringing. It's led by attorney Daniel Epstein. and alleges the DOJ's actions constituted tortious conduct tortious, tortious. Tortious. Thank you, tortious. What does that mean? That means it was a tort that you could sue in civil court over. Thank you, I thought it hasn't been due with like turtles and.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Yeah, it does sound a little Mitch McConnell, but no, it just means it's a civil suit for damages. See, that's why they, you know what? It's like he's got his own network. A torsious conduct against the former president. citing intrusion upon seclusion, malicious prosecution, and abuse of process. Epstein argues the decisions made by Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Ray were not grounded in social economic and political policy, but instead in a clear dereliction of constitutional principles, inconsistent standard as applied to Trump,
Starting point is 00:04:30 and a clear intent to engage in political persecution not to advance good law enforcement or practices. So Trump alleges that the protocol was The search was inconsistent with protocols used in routine searches of an investigative targets premise and the FBI's conduct was a severe and unacceptable intrusion that is highly offensive to a reasonable person. Apparently they should have just stood outside with like a trick-or-treat bag, rang the doorbell and was like, documents please. But no, they didn't. They actually told them they were going to search. They got the warrant they searched. Spokesman Stephen Chung characterized the lawsuit's threat in a statement Monday as Trump
Starting point is 00:05:09 continuing to fight against blatant election interference. Claiming the raid on Mar-a-Lago was illegal and unconstitutional, as are all the Democrat witch hunts that are now falling apart like a rotten house of cards. Weird, mixed metaphor there that they are, which should be immediately dismissed in order to bring unity back to our nation. Uh-huh. The funny thing about this, and here's we've got to say, you know, let sleeping dogs lie, let dismiss cases be.
Starting point is 00:05:37 because in fact, this whole thing could backfire if the lawsuit goes forward. U.S. attorney Joyce Vance noted that the civil lawsuit could actually be a boon for the DOJ, and as it would mean that Trump could be deposed in this case, and it would put a focus on why the criminal case was legitimate and Trump's criminality. The civil suit would allow the DOJ to continue discovery, meaning they'd be able to get evidence from Trump about keeping the White House documents that could ultimately bolt, bolster their case. So keep talking about it, buddy.
Starting point is 00:06:07 Keep going. Yep. So all right, now let me break down for you guys why this suit is mental. It's so dumb. So number one, they make it seem like, oh, the FBI decided to do this on their own. Oh my God, it's just unprecedented. They spent 13 hours in Biden's home. They went to Biden's Wilmington home, Robith home.
Starting point is 00:06:30 They were the University of Delaware where he had some documents. So it's not at all unprecedented. In fact, in Biden's case, he did the search. His attorneys did the search first just in case they had documents. They did find them. They turned them over to the FBI and invited the FBI to raid their home in which they did, okay? And now in Trump's case, number one, they make this absurd claim that they're like, now in order to investigate anyone, you need their consent. No, you don't.
Starting point is 00:06:58 That's not even close to true. Have you ever seen in any other criminal case? Oh, Mr. Mob person. Can we please have your consent to investigate you or perhaps go into your home and find the dead body in the basement? No, that's not a thing. You have to have probable cause and you have to go to a judge to get it. So did the FBI circumvent the judicial system and go around the judge? No, they went to a judge and they said, here's overwhelming evidence that he's keeping stolen documents in his home.
Starting point is 00:07:28 The judge was like, oh, you're definitely right. Here's the warrant. They could not have followed procedure any better. They go in, and in Trump's case, even if they asked her consent, which they actually did. It's absurd. You'd only ask someone who's among the elites, right? Someone who's very wealthy or powerful for consent. Or who understands consent.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Yeah, well, he doesn't really understand consent either. But so they did him a massive solid. They would never do you. They would never ask your consent to see if they can find illegal evidence in your home. just asked the judge and get the warrant and do it. And Trump said, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, sure, I gave everything over. And they're like, dude, we know you didn't. He's like, yeah, I did.
Starting point is 00:08:09 Well, that left him no choice. They know for a fact that he has top secret documents at Mar-a-Lago. They showed it to a judge. They got the warrant. They went in and guess what they found? Top-secret documents. A hundred classified documents, massively relevant to Iran's defenses, potential nuclear secrets.
Starting point is 00:08:28 It doesn't get any more top-secret than the document. he not only had, but was hiding from the FBI. So look, if you're a conspiracy theorist, you don't believe any of that. You think that, and they, I know, because I interact with them on social media. They're like, no, the FBI conjured all of it. They brought it in, and it's a deep state, and the judges in on it. And the judge is afraid of black people. And that's why he did this ruling when he didn't want to, and all sorts of lunatic stuff.
Starting point is 00:08:54 But back here in the real world, if you're an actual normal human being, so this is This is all on the record, there's absolutely no question about it. What is this suing the, like if you were innocent and you sued the FBI, and they did a great injustice to you, and you sued the FBI for $100 million, your chance of winning is so small. What if you're actually guilty and they did find the documents they were looking for? Your chances are zero, zero, beyond zero. This is what Trump does all the time. And by the way, he hasn't filed a suit. He's threatened to file the suit because this is Trump 101.
Starting point is 00:09:29 Oh yeah, I'm gonna find a lawsuit against you. Hey, everybody, pay attention to me. Look at me, daddy. Look at me. I'm in the spotlight. And the second part of it is I'm going to bully you into submission. You're not going to bully the FBI in the submission, you clown. So please take it to court for the reasons that Frannie explains.
Starting point is 00:09:44 They're going to depose you and you know him, verbal diarrhea. I took the documents, they were top secret. I was going to sell him there on, right? You know, he's just going to cause himself more damage because he's a moron. Right. But on top of that, they're not going to do any of that. They're going to drop the lawsuit before, like, Or like even if they ever file it, they'll drop it before goes to court.
Starting point is 00:10:02 How do I know that he's done that dozens and dozens of times in his life? He mainly used it to bully people and attract attention. So that's who this clown is. No, I think that's a really important point. It's basically the news cycle has moved on to Kamala Harris and to Tim Walls. He's freaking out about that. He doesn't think he's going to win this, obviously, definitely not before the election. But it's like, talk about me again.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Well, yeah, but it's about a thing you definitely did. Like putting documents even in your bathroom, even if they weren't. classified like what are you doing and also this is kind of one of my favorite crimes of his because he did it all himself no this was not about you know trying to save the nation from joe biden as in january 6 which like obviously is a lie it wasn't anything about the big lie it wasn't even about hush money payments this had nothing this just him man want to keep trophy to possibly sell for clout elsewhere when he has to uh you know flee the country and not not be extradited like that's like it's just he did it to himself he just his own pride
Starting point is 00:11:04 and then he declassified them with his mind jank i don't know if you remember that yeah by the way they literally say that on social media like right wingers look there's a portion of right wingers who are now i know a lot of you on the left wing won't believe this but uh that are like hey listen i get it he's a clown but i hate the establishment i hate comla harris i hate joe biden i hate the democrats etc i'm not voting for trump i'm voting against those people and i get it I get it. At least that makes some degree of sense, right? I don't think it makes sense to vote for Trump, but I understand the logic that they're using. But the other half, they're in La La Land. They're like, of course he declassified them with his eyes. And then when you do that, and that's why the judge who was appointed by him, who every other person thinks is a total buffoon and cannot apply the law at all, including other Trump appointed judges above her, right?
Starting point is 00:11:51 Yep. Okay, no, she's the only honest judge, not intimidated by black people. But if you haven't heard that insane theory, they say that they lost 61 times in court after the 2020 election, despite the fact that they presented zero evidence, not because they presented zero evidence, because all the Trump appointed and conservative judges were afraid that black people were going to riot. And so they said, okay, forget it. Even though there's obvious evidence that the election has been stolen, I'm so afraid of black people, as all rational human beings are, that we're just going to say that there was no evidence. And we'll lie on behalf of the deep state. Look, again, if you're a lunatic, this will make a lot of sense to you. But if you're part of the, you know, the 75, 80% of the rest of the population, here he goes again. What a crazy, I mean, look, Kamala Harris is not passing you. And your answer is, remember the documents I stole? I want you to pay more attention to that.
Starting point is 00:12:45 And I want money for it. Remember how he's going to sell the secrets? Well, I didn't get to sell them. I want the money anyway. Come on, what a total loser. Give me back one or two secrets and I'll stop the lawsuit. days that really can be attributed only to himself. But on Saturday, the New York Times published a detailed report about just how terrible
Starting point is 00:13:31 the last few weeks have been for Donald Trump, for the Trump campaign, and how advisors around him are truly worried that he's not getting the message. And that they don't think that he can switch strategies, especially right now. This is the headline inside the worst three weeks of the Donald Trump's 2024 campaign. Obviously, he's real pissed about this one. This is another Maggie Haberman hit. Haberman Swan hit, used to be my best friend no longer. According to the report, he's been a terrible mood in the last few weeks,
Starting point is 00:14:04 taking it out on Harris, both in public and private, in private, or he's called her nasty on Fox and Friends in public and a bitch repeatedly in private, according to two people who has heard the remarks on different occasions. He's real pissed still about Joe Biden stepping down. didn't think it would happen because it's something he himself would never do for the good of the country not going to happen he's been disoriented according to sources the people around Trump see a candidate knocked off his bearings nothing like the man who reclined serenely on july 15th as he watched the thousands of delegates cheering him on the first night of the republican
Starting point is 00:14:41 national convention he's also pissed that the new cycle has moved on from his little ear bandage His little, you know, maxi pad on the old, the old lobes. And the polls are also not helping his mood. Trump has also peppered his advisors with questions about whether Harris can sustain her momentum, constantly asking what new polling shows. It's bad, Don, it's not good. We're going to get to a little bit of that in the next segment, but it doesn't look good. And everyone around him is like, look, why don't you just, you know, switch up the strategy.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Maybe we can take back the narrative. And according to a wealthy donor, there was a dinner earlier this month. Harrison Lefrak, the sion of a New York real estate family whose father is an old friend of Trump, asked how Trump planned to take back the narrative from Democrats and what is positive vision for the country would be. It appeared to be a request for reassurance and Trump provided none. Instead, according to the report, he criticized Harris on a range of fronts before adding, I am who I am and honestly I think he's telling the truth there again at that dinner he sort of pushed back against the idea that he had been changed since the assassination
Starting point is 00:15:51 attempt he told donors that the news media had been incorrectly suggesting he had mellowed since the assassination attempt I'm not nicer he said according to one person in attendance that's not all he's done a number of things to piss off again some of his closest donors one of those being the former the widow of of former big casino magnate, Sheldon Adelson, Miriam Adelson, who's been donating heavily to Donald Trump. He sent a series of unhinged text messages to her,
Starting point is 00:16:22 accusing her of letting rhinos run the super pack where she's sending her money. And apparently, according to the report, that actually was encouraged, the text messages were encouraged by another Trump donor, Ike Perlmutter, who is the former chairman of Marvel Entertainment, who had hoped in vain that Adelson
Starting point is 00:16:38 would actually contribute to his pack, So just petty random donor stuff that Trump's getting mired in. So that's not helping especially because they really need Adelson's money for this. So he is not doing well right now. Jank, some of the guy can't pivot. The guy cannot pivot on anything. And I think some of his closest advisors, look last week the rats were jumping ship, right? We know that Nick Fuentes, you got Joe Rogan, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:10 People who, honestly, I wouldn't want on my team at all are saying, we don't, we don't even like this election anymore. We don't like Trump anymore. Yeah, I mean, for a variety of both sane and insane reasons, I wouldn't be too worried about losing Nick Fuentes. And he hasn't. You know, Fuentes is so happy that he's a Nazi and got to go to dinner with Trump. I mean, it's just unbelievable. I mean, how are we still having a conversation about this lunatic and how we might put him back in the White House? But all right, let's get into this.
Starting point is 00:17:41 So I'm going to come back to the topic of how he called Kamala Harris, a bitch, apparently behind the scenes. And, you know, and there's a secret part of these conversations that I want to talk about, too, that I actually could get him in a lot of trouble, but it's not for that word. But first, let's talk about what Franny brought up. I told you guys, even when we're at the RNC, they did this entire convention around trying to make him seem nicer. And I said, it'll never work because he's not a nice person.
Starting point is 00:18:09 person, you guys are totally making this up, and he cannot control himself. So they framed four days straight of, oh, you'll never believe it. After the shooting, he's a changed man. And oh my God, he once hugged a child. I'm like, all right, okay, good luck with that, because the lunatic is going to speak. And when he does, he's going to be like, yeah, I hate everyone. I'm so angry. Comble is a bitch, right?
Starting point is 00:18:33 Like, of course, of course. Okay, so this is not a, you know, a big told you a moment. Because anybody could have seen this coming, apparently except his entire staff who were still knuckleheads and think we could change this guy. All right, now in terms of how is this affecting his campaign, it's a disaster. Now remember, Biden was at a minus 15 on approve rating. So he was in a disastrous area and Trump was coasting the victory. Now Kamala Harris is at a plus two. That's a 17 point swing for the Democratic ticket.
Starting point is 00:19:04 Okay, that's just gigantic. It's as big as any I have ever seen in covering campaigns. in terms of the swing and in that speed in about two weeks. Two weeks. Okay. So now understandable because you have a new candidate and the old candidate had massive problems, right? So now Trump all of a sudden finds himself at minus 10 on likeability against Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Oh my God, he's losing his mind because he thinks the world loves him. And he's like, Kamala Harris, have you seen her? She's a woman, a black woman. Black is actually Indian. I mean, when did she turn black? But she turned black recently. So I mean, this is great, I'm losing a her a minus 10 on likeability? Because remember, he's a billionaire theoretically.
Starting point is 00:19:48 So he surrounds himself with people who kiss his ass 24-7. And if they don't kiss his ass, he immediately fires them. He's like, did you just not kiss my ass three times? Only twice? You're fired, right? So he thinks in his world, he's the most popular guy in the world. So that's part of why he's coming a part of the seams. And he can't adjust.
Starting point is 00:20:05 He had a whole campaign built on Biden's too old. now all of a sudden his opponent is 20 years younger than him. And she's saying he's too old. He's like, ah, it does not compute, have tiny mind cannot adjust. So he's going back to his hits. Oh, she's just turned black, whatever the hell that means, right? She's nasty, which he says openly, right? Oh, by the way, we brought our nasty shirt back.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Shop t.com. Because remember he was calling the mayor of Puerto Rico nasty? And then he called like three different women in a row nasty. because that's all he ever calls women. Yes. Right? So anyway, check that out of the links down below. And so you've got all this unraveling.
Starting point is 00:20:45 But the Miriam Edelson stories are one that I found the most interesting. She's giving him, or giving the pack to help him, $18 million a week, he's going to drain the swamp. Come on, guys. The price of the West Bank. If you're Maga, Trump doesn't deny that. He brags about it. 18 million a week? You want to talk about swamp.
Starting point is 00:21:09 He's up to here in swamp. And then he has a temerity because he's Trump to go over and say, I don't like the way you run in the pack, okay? Miriam, send me more running. And I don't like the way you're running it. I want you to run it this way. Wait a minute, that's the secret I was alluding to. Nobody's even talking about it.
Starting point is 00:21:23 That's a campaign coordinating with a pack. Totally illegal. Right there. Right there. Massively illegal. And it's right there. He's sending texts saying not only get rid of your directors, obviously illegal, but here's the kind of campaign you should be running, massively illegal.
Starting point is 00:21:41 But the problem with Trump, as you know, is he floods the zone, and both with crimes and then crying. So that he'll commit so many crimes. In the minute you call him out on any, I'm the victim, just because I was illegally colluding with a massive donor who I serve and, you know, and I'm doing massive corruption with, and now illegally, I'm the victim. Yeah. So, but it's a stupid, dumb way to run a campaign. Go flout how corrupt you are. Good luck with that. business needs. Ready to press play? Get up to $2,700 when you open select small business banking products. Yep, that's $2,700 to turn up your business. Visit TD.com slash small business match to learn more. Conditions apply.
Starting point is 00:22:58 I mean, to me, the point was that NABJ conference, like that was a turning point for me. and him creating this birtherism in reverse conspiracy theory about Kamala Harris, becoming black, deciding to be black. Because when is Trump ever pivoted or ever walked anything back? Ever. He's never done it in the history of his political career and it's worked out for him. Hey, he was president for four years, right? Like that, it worked. But it isn't actually working with undecided so also don't want the drama. You're nothing but drama, you're nothing but hate, you're nothing but name calling. You have to take Kamala Harris seriously as much as you hate it because she's a woman, she's a black woman, she's a new candidate, she's young,
Starting point is 00:23:43 ah, like, right? But again, the moment that he said that about her deciding to be black, I was like, oh, this is it, because he's not going to walk this back, just like he won't walk back, Hannibal Lecter being alive. He's like, oh, they love this. Like, no, it makes you look insane. And he's like, no, they like it. They like it. More Hannibal Lecter. Right. So I, I just like this is exactly what you get. And I sort of under, you know, under my breath said, Miriam Adelson, that's the price of annexing the West Bank. Remember, Sheldon Adelson was a massive pro-Israel lobbyist. I actually saw him personally wheel out, because he was in a rascal at that point, wheel out of who? Senator Diane Feinstein's office one time. That was chilling. He gave to
Starting point is 00:24:23 both Democrats and Republicans, and specifically for Donald Trump this time around, the exchange is, oh, we want you to support Israel in annexing all of the West Bank. That's what it's going to be. So we're going to talk about Gaza a little bit. It does get worse under Republicans, even though somehow that seems unfathomable right now. Yeah, so quick note on seeing on Hannibal Lecter, and then I want to go back to how he could attack Kamala Harris in a rational way, but he just chooses not to because he's dumb. So I was wondering, what the hell is he talking about? Everybody was wondering, Hannibal Lecter, what's that about? And I think somebody figured it out. They're like, he keeps calling the undocumented immigrants Hannibal Lecter and that
Starting point is 00:25:01 they're coming in. Why? Because they're seeking asylum and he thinks that means mental asylum. That's why he keeps talking about how other nations are emptying their mental inmates, mental patients. Oh my God. And that's why Hannibal Lecter is coming in because he thinks that's what asylum means. He's so preposterously stupid guys. So he hasn't even seen sounds of the lambs. Okay, yeah. So look, we have enormous credibility here because Because we said our candidate was problematic. Joe Biden couldn't talk, couldn't walk, couldn't get a sentence out. How's he gonna run the country for four years?
Starting point is 00:25:39 We were honest about that. Are the right winger is honest about Trump's problems? Look, here's how Trump could attack common language with more honesty. He could say she's empty. And you could say, oh, I disagree with that. She did a lot as attorney general and senator, blah, blah, but it's something that could work. He could say that she's a flip flopper. That's actually kind of true, right?
Starting point is 00:25:58 There's a couple of other lines of attack where you go, huh? And how about immigration and crime and blah, blah, blah, because those are important issues and ones that are leaning a Republican. There's rational ways to do a normal political attack that could take her numbers down. But he won't do it because he's preposterously stupid. Instead, he's like, she's nasty. What is it? Like, of all the things Kamala Harris is nasty?
Starting point is 00:26:19 She's not nasty. I mean, she almost laughs too much. Where's the nasty? Right. Like, it makes no sense at all. He just has no other word other than the one he's using behind the scenes for women when he's when he's talking to them. And it's obvious guys.
Starting point is 00:26:34 And if you're not like that and you think, well, you're projecting it onto Trump, like, no, he can't mean it that way. Remember, he's like 200 years old. So back then, that's like a woman challenging a man when he was growing up, he's almost part of the silent generation, like beyond the greatest generation. He's so old. So when he was growing up, any woman who spoke up was nasty. So that's that's the attitude he's got in his head.
Starting point is 00:26:58 I don't particularly care that he used the B word behind the scenes. B word, whatever, okay? Okay, like I'm not particularly offended by it. If I'm Kamala Harris, I feel good about it because he looks like a misogynistic ass. So like my feelings aren't heard, but it's just terrible strategy. Yeah, especially with donors, like and especially with advisors, that's not that what you want to hear. I just quickly want to say, because one of the best parts of this entire article is speaking about J.D. Vance and apparently during a of the word creepy, right?
Starting point is 00:27:28 And how like, or not creepy, excuse me, weird. I wanted to be creepy, but how Democrats are deploying weird. And then Tim Walls are saying weird all over the place. Trump had this to say, after a donor at a roundtable discussion, asked about Democrats trying to paint Republican ticket as weird. Trump replied, not about me. They're saying that about JD. You're so hilarious.
Starting point is 00:27:50 It's JD, not me. He is kind of weird. Why would you say that about your own people? Okay. And secondly, brother, I got news for you. You're weird too. Okay. And when you say things like that, you schmuck, it signals to the Democrats, oh great, call him weird too. It'll drive him out of his mind. And then he'll pretend that Kamala Harris is in a woman. Oh, right, they did that with Michelle Obama already. Okay, so there is no end to their insanity. But the more insane they are, the more they turn off independent voters, voters that were undecided, voters that didn't
Starting point is 00:28:24 like Biden or Trump, there was a ton of what they called double haters, they're turning into single haters. Yes, they are. And that's Trump. So he could not be playing this worse, as I say all the time. If you're a right winger, you should be more mad of Trump than we are. Yeah. Because he's blowing this election.
Starting point is 00:28:41 All right, we got to take a break here. When we come back, the conspiracy theories Donald Trump has come up with, because apparently the spiral can't go down enough. So he's trying to drill through the bottom of the earth and come out the other side and go, where am I? It looks like China. Okay, all right. We'll be right back. Ashford, Eb, thanks for joining. I appreciate it. They hit the join button below as you can,
Starting point is 00:29:28 or if you want to donate, t-y-t.com slash team. We love you for it. All right, Franie, what's next? All right, one little extra Trump bit with this. We spent $100 million fighting Crooked Joe Biden, and then all of a sudden they decide to take him out and put somebody else in. She never got one vote. I hear he's going to make a comeback at the Democrat convention. He's going to walk into the room. And he's going to say, I want my presidency back. I want another chance to debate Trump. I want another chance. Okay, there you go.
Starting point is 00:30:02 There's Trump. And this is not the first time he's engaged in this weird fan fiction about how an aggrieved Joe Biden is going to come back and want to debate me because I really want to debate him because I am scared of Kamawa Hewis. And that is exactly what you saw there. Trump is truly just the copium is through the roof here. Again, defending his former opponent, President Joe Biden. But despite that, he wrote on Truth Social that actually I'm doing really well in the presidential race.
Starting point is 00:30:35 Just in case you had any questions, leading in almost all of the real polls. And this despite the Democrats unprecedentedly changing the primary winning candidate sleepy Joe Biden, midstream with a candidate Kamala Harris, who failed to get even a single primary vote. I mean, she was on the ticket, my guy, but okay. There you go again. Somehow this was never Joe Biden's decision. He didn't actually do that. He was secretly cooed and we need to rally around him.
Starting point is 00:31:06 This is the weirdest line yet. And how about them polls? Well, a new New York Times, Sienna College poll just conducted has Kamala Harris up by four points in three key swing states, Michigan, Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, so no, your campaign isn't going great. And to prove that, Donald Trump now has a new conspiracy theory about why there's so many people at Harris Walls rallies. That's because there aren't. All of this is AI.
Starting point is 00:31:39 You see the things they can do, it's all AI. So he posed to the following fake picture on truth social, or not fake, real picture, just fake conclusions. Chuck Calesto, breaking report, Harris campaign busted using fake crowd photo at campaign rally stop. So this is a picture of Air Force 2, that's right, and Detroit at a hangar, and there is a crowd there. And then on the right, apparently there's not a crowd because in the circled red, you can see there's no reflection, except distance, dog. like there's a big distance between that part of the plane and where those people, they weren't allowed to actually like get up into the landing gear of Air Force 2. You realize that.
Starting point is 00:32:28 But that apparently is part of it. But it's beyond that there is apparently AI. He also continued saying, has anyone noticed that Kamala cheated at the airport? There was nobody at that plane. And she AI'd it and showed a massive crowd of so-called followers, but they didn't exist. Now, shock, of all shocks, Donald Trump is wrong. He's wrong. Multiple news reports broadcasted the event via live stream where the crowd is clearly visible.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Photographers from the AP and many other national and international outlets captured the attendees. Local news reported that about 15,000 people filled the hangar and the crowd was spilling out onto the tarmac and cheering as Air Force 2 arrived. Also look at their hands, people. Hands are very well done. AI just can't do hands. And I will say this, it is just kind of ironic to me that Donald Trump is calling everything AI when actually tech billionaires who are putting
Starting point is 00:33:27 tons of money into AI, rolling it out, left and right in places that we don't even want them in jobs that are actually undermining real jobs right now that are using freshwater resources because AI actually happens with massive data processing centers that have to be cooled down with fresh water, oh my God, and yet we're being told to limit our energy consumption during the summer. All those billionaires are donating to his campaign. So it's just kind of rich that if there was
Starting point is 00:33:54 anyone to use AI, in fact, he has and a lot of it, it's Donald Trump, but he's got to find some angle. Okay, so there's two things here. One is the madness and the other is the politics. So on the madness front, I've been saying for a while, Biden's too old, Trump is too crazy. So it's He said, oh, well, that doesn't seem fair to Trump. Really, guys, Joe Biden's gonna come back? All right, I don't know what your excuses, but I know Mago always has an excuse. He was taken out of context, he was joking, he was drolling. He was, you know, fan fiction, whatever, he gets off on it.
Starting point is 00:34:28 I don't know, you can have any explanation you like, but Joe Biden's not coming back. And the presidential candidates saying that looks weird and ridiculous. Why, what a weird thing to say. You can imagine if Kamala Harris is like, oh yeah, I'm not gonna run against Donald Trump. I think Mike Pence is going to come back and he's going to take over the ticket and I'm going to run against him. We'd all be like, she lost her mind, right? Or if she, I mean, George W. Bush is going to come back. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:34:56 Like, and we wouldn't say, oh, she was just joking. She was just trolling. She was just this. She was that. We'd say that's mental because it's mental. There's no other way to describe it. Now, on the substance of that one, ha-ha, and the substance, oh, Kamala Harris didn't get any votes. This is illegitimate.
Starting point is 00:35:14 Okay, you know, I kid around and say, hey, I got more votes for president than Kamala Harris. Which is true, right? But it comes with an enormous butt. She was the vice president on a winning ticket in 2020 where they got 81 million votes. So that's why it's a joke because it's not relevant. Yeah. The 81 million votes is enormously relevant, okay? And but that's not how any of this got decided anyway.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Look, there should have been a primary. As you know, I was in the primary. sham of a primary that Democrats had and I thought it should then the whole purpose of me entering was so they can have a real primary like if anybody could make any kind of movement against Biden I wanted all the governors in like governor Tim Walls and all the other governors because we should add a real primary but that ship sailed and it sailed because of Joe Biden he controls the DNC etc etc and he didn't want to get out until the debate so after he gets out Kamala Harris actually won the nomination now does she have an enormous advantage because
Starting point is 00:36:13 Biden endorsed her and she's already the vice president and Democrats were nervous about the transition, et cetera, of course. But she did collect those delegates. Now, I wanted someone to go win those delegates and she won them. So it was pretty easy for her to win them, but she did. I didn't win them. Mary Ann Williamson didn't win them. Governor Newsom didn't win them. She won them. So you can cry about that all day long, but it's just crying. There's, I mean, there was no laws broken, there was the best process you could have under the circumstances of a presidential candidate that withdrew way too late. So, and what happened to all of your conspiracy theories?
Starting point is 00:36:50 I thought, oh, Obamas are secretly controlling everything and that Michelle Obama was going to be the candidate. Well, it didn't happen. So, oh, all of a sudden, no, that doesn't count. So when all your conspiracy theories are wrong, that's inconvenient and we never talk about them again, right? And if the Obamas were controlling, they definitely wanted to judge Shapiro. as VP. So why isn't he the VP? Oops, there goes another one that you were wrong about.
Starting point is 00:37:12 So now when it gets to the AI conspiracy, come on guys, come on. Again, you're hardcore MAGA, you're hopeless. You believe every part of this. And you know what, who created the AI, Frannie? It was 2,000 mules sitting on their computers. And they created all the AI images, etc. Guys, there were reporters there. Okay, I know every reporter's a lie. Okay, mainstream media frames things wrong. They don't just invent crowds. They don't show up in a hangar where there's no crowd and then they say, oh yeah, there was 10,000 people there. That's not how it works. This shot is just incredible. Like, yep, that's a lot of people. Well, there's a lot of mules to create that area. Yeah, that's why. Okay, come on guys. Come on, come on. Your guy's a lunatic. How
Starting point is 00:37:58 could you not see he's a lunatic? So if you're again, if you're hardcore MAGA, you're going to believe everything he says. There was no airplane either. She actually wrote it on a unicorn and that turned into a pumpkin. Why not? Because we're making stuff up. And by the way, Josh is one of our YouTube members. And he wrote in on the earlier story we're doing about Trump. And he said, yeah, as a right winger, yes, I'd prefer a better candidate, L.O.L.
Starting point is 00:38:22 Yeah, I mean, if you're a right winger, you should be 10 times angrier than I am. Why are you making up crazy stuff? Why are you ruining any chance of winning? So, hey, look, I don't want him to win because he's a lunatic. So, but if he wants to prove that he's a lunatic for the next. three months, I'm happy to have it. Makes the choice very, very easy. Yeah, and it also preps his audience, I mean, his voters for his loss in November. Like, oh, those ballots are AI, the people are AI. Look at their hand. That photo is. Like, now that we're in an
Starting point is 00:38:54 AI, the dawn of AI, it's just another way for him to cry, you know, wolf and say that he, everyone's cheating. And it's now it's just AI. Like, watch how he'll blame AI if he does lose in November, but it's funny because the fan fiction of this entire election, it's already been written. It happened. Have we not lived in wilder times than the last month of our political lives? Like, this is insane. A lot of us didn't think it would happen. Thank God it did. I think this is where it goes. I mean, who knows? Another J6, one can only help just for the history books. No, but like, everything's already happened. So, and it's funny Because it's like, just because your candidate's not really in this and is whining and finds new ways to whine, don't blame us.
Starting point is 00:39:41 That's on your candidate. We have other things to blame our candidate for, and we can get into that now. Yeah, okay, once, the last thing here. What does it mean that she's cheating by doing AI pictures? Even if it was true, how is that cheating? Is it cheating? Maybe it's cheating on a picture, but that has nothing to do with the election. That has nothing to do with polling.
Starting point is 00:39:59 That has nothing to do with voting. But this clown thinks that marketing and media is everything. So he thinks, well, this is helping or win the media wars. So I think it's cheating. So I'm gonna start crying preemptively. Then he can't do it too. He has rolled out images that are AI with him like sitting on a stoop with a bunch of black voters. Elon Musk last week retweeted a video that was basically Kamala Harris in an AI,
Starting point is 00:40:26 Kamala Harris saying, I'm a DEI hire. So where's that? That isn't that election interference from your boy Elon? Let alone Trump, all those fan pictures of him as Rocky or Rambo where he's cut and ripped and muscular, et cetera. But you don't see us crying about that and go, that's cheating, you're helping Trump win. That's what you look like, guys. It looks effing pathetic.
Starting point is 00:40:50 Sorry, just a lot, it should be illegal. You cannot manipulate someone's voice and like roll that out. Oh, giant difference, yeah, yeah, let me be clear. So him saying are they AI the picture, which is of course mental, it's not even close to true. But that's not, who cares? He can say that all day long. Like there's nothing illegal or wrong about that. And the Trump guy's putting him as Rocky or Rambo, that's totally fine.
Starting point is 00:41:12 Nobody cares about that. What Frannie's talking about is when you make it seem like Kamala Harris said things she didn't say or Donald Trump said things he didn't say, that's unacceptable. All right. We're going to take another break? Yeah. All right. Another break. And when we come back, among other things, oh, disaster in Gaza. Okay, we'll be right back. Those lovely people just hit the join button below.
Starting point is 00:42:00 We appreciate you guys without members. We got nothing, no show at all, period. And we're not kidding, that's how it works. But with you guys, hopefully we'll stay around for a long time. All right, Randy. Okay, this is the heavy portion of the show. Let's go. Tonight anguish in Gaza following a deadly strike that hit a school in Gaza city.
Starting point is 00:42:25 Three rockets hit the Tabin school, killing at least 100 people. According to a spokesperson with Gaza's civil defense, there are also a lot of people who are missing, he says, a lot of bodies that cannot be identified. On Saturday night, the IDF struck yet another school this time in Gaza City, killing around 100 people. And again, many of those bodies have not been identified, as you'd heard. In fact, some of them are just in bags.
Starting point is 00:42:57 They were truly people who are blown to bits. It is the fifth strike on a school in Gaza by the Israeli military since last Sunday, according to CNN's previous reporting, again, that anti-Semitic outlet there. Here's a little bit more from their report. Israel admits they carried out the strikes, but claimed the school was more than just a shelter for thousands of displaced, Palestinians. In a statement released tonight, Israeli forces said in part, they struck terrorists operating in a Hamas command and control center embedded inside a mosque in the school compound and killed 19 militants using three precise munitions.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Sure, except even if you were to believe that, that's still 89 people or 81 people who are killed then for 19 militants, okay. The slaughter in Gaza obviously is being enabled by the Biden administration. And actually just this week, we sent 3.5 billion more dollars of the $14 billion of military aid that was approved by Congress over there. While also we're on the precipice of World War III here after Israel, which hasn't claimed responsibility for killing one of the political. leaders of Hamas, is Melhania in Tehran. But everyone, we know they did. And a
Starting point is 00:44:27 Hezbollah leader in Beirut, Lebanon. Again, we're still sort of awaiting the response from Iran. But currently, General Lloyd Austin, the head of the Department of Defense, is working very closely with Yoav Galant in Israel to brace for that imminent attack in response. Lant has an arrest warrant out for him as recommended by the international criminal court. I want to remind everyone that is the Minister of Defense of Israel, and yet our Minister of Defense is working closely with him, our Secretary of Defense. And just yesterday, the U.S. sent a guided missile submarine to the Middle East in order to brace for that.
Starting point is 00:45:12 And we are also fast-tracking an aircraft carrier strike force to the Middle East, all to defend the right to murder people sheltering in a school. So, Jank, I'm gonna kick it to you because it's been a few days. We actually had a little bit of a different response from Kamala Harris on this. It seems like she says they're working around the clock to negotiate a ceasefire. And yet here we go again. Yeah, so I'll get to the US reaction in a sec, because it's abhorrent. But first, let's talk about what happened here.
Starting point is 00:45:48 So Israel has bombed five different schools in the last week alone. So 47 killed in bombings last weekend, and then they bombed throughout the week. And so in the last one killed over 100. Sorry, guys, but I got to tell you this because it's real. And you have to know what the consequences of our actions are. Family members were trying to identify kids and other family members through body parts. Because most of them had been dismembered by the strike. So they're like they would find limbs at a time and try to piece the human beings back together
Starting point is 00:46:22 to figure out who had died. So now Israel says no, no, no, of course. Everybody's a terrorist and then we had to kill them all. And it was a very targeted strike. Well, which one is it? So if it was targeted and you killed at a minimum 81 civilians, you're saying, yeah, I didn't mind killing 81 civilians. Who cares?
Starting point is 00:46:44 They're Palestinians. Their lives don't matter at all. Imagine if Israel had killed 81 Israelis by accident or for whatever reason. Oh, my good, the outrage would have been unbelievable. In fact, when they killed, what, three of their own hostages? That was a new story for weeks and weeks, right? Because that was precious lives, Israeli lives. Whereas 81 dead Palestinians, tons of them kids, who cares?
Starting point is 00:47:08 They're just Palestinians. Let's go pick out their body parts. And so understand that that's what our bombs do. And it is our bombs. So because they said it was a precision guided missile, experts look at it and said, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a Boeing from the U.S. So now what do you think the Palestinians are going to think about us here in America? We just rushed them, $3.5 billion.
Starting point is 00:47:29 So let me do overall count for you guys. Now about 40,000 dead, 90,000 injured, let alone the people buried under the rubble. That's a number we don't know yet. And 2 million out of the 2.3 million displaced. So when is this sick form of revenge enough? If you say, oh, as long as they got 19 terrorists, I don't mind them murdering 81 innocent civilians along with them. Which actually, that's what Israel's been saying for decades now. I can kill as many civilians as I like, as long as I got one bad guy, maybe.
Starting point is 00:48:06 Because they don't value those lives, they think those lives are irrelevant. If Hamas said, oh, no, no, we got an Israeli soldier, but we killed 89 or just do the same exact numbers. You know what? We got 19 IDF guys and we murdered 81 civilians next to them. So what? Everybody would like, terrorists, right? You would all say terrorists. And I would say terrorists.
Starting point is 00:48:26 So what's Israel? No, no, they're a beloved special allies, so we're not allowed to call them the things that they obviously are. The IDF is terrorists on a global scale, a terrorist on steroids. They've literally killed 35 times the number of civilians that Hamas did. If Hamas is terrorists for killing one, Israel is not a terrorist for killing 35. Innocent civilians, I'm not talking about Hamas fighters. And this is acknowledged even with the preposterous numbers that the IDF lies about. Even if you accept that, it's a 35 to 1 ratio on civilians killed.
Starting point is 00:48:59 So do only Israeli civilians count? Or maybe it's just Western civilians. If you're Palestinian or Muslim, I know for the last two decades, At a minimum, our lives haven't counted at all, at all. And when you get slaughtered in mass, they go, so what? It's all Hamas's fault anyway. You were in the vicinity of Hamas, so we murdered you. What's the big deal?
Starting point is 00:49:22 No, that's a giant deal. That makes you the bad guys. Yeah, even worse, because it's tragic and spare us with the tragic. Every life lost is tragic, is terrible. And we've seen Kamala Harris pivot a little bit on this. We're working around the clock on a ceasefire. Are you? I don't, mm-mm, you also took out the head of the political wing of Hamas, who was actually
Starting point is 00:49:46 actively negotiating a ceasefire in Qatar in Hamas office, which actually, the United States asked the Qataris to set up so that they could negotiate with them. This was years ago. So anyone who was like, why does Hamas have an office? Because the United States was like, well, we want to negotiate work with Hamas because they're actually the government of Gaza. So please set up an office so we can just talk to them. Okay, and then the other thing I think that's been pointed out many times is that Israel knows how to do precision strikes.
Starting point is 00:50:16 We saw it on the World Central Kitchen organizers, a missile right through the roof of their convoy. We saw it with the murder of Ismail Hania, we saw it with the murder of the Hezbollah leader. They know how to take out one person. They know how to take it out. They have Gaza mapped to a T. They know where everybody lives, they've got AI systems that are actually designed to maximize civilian casualties, but they could minimize them if they wanted to. They don't because the goal is erasure. The goal is genocide and I just want to say I the pressure should never come off Kamala Harris's
Starting point is 00:50:51 campaign. She's pivoted a bit. She's saying we're working around ceasefire instead of saying I'm speaking now, thank God. But there are reports that potentially if elected she would not continue Anthony Blinken's tenure. She would not continue you Lloyd Austin, Austin senior as Secretary of Defense, that's good, because they're working with war criminals right now, wanted by international bodies. So there is a lot of work to do. Yeah. Okay, so they say, the U.S. says that they are deeply concerned about this bombing. Oh, wow, are you? We just rushed them $3.5 billion. So where is the deep concern? No, you're full of crap. You're not at all concerned. I don't care what you.
Starting point is 00:51:35 you claim you're doing about peace negotiations and how you're pressuring them. You're not. America is putting zero pressure. Now you say, oh, that's not fair. Jenk, I've seen the strongly worded statement from Kamala Harris and a little bit from Biden in the past. Words don't mean anything, guys. There's only one thing that Israel cares about and they've been very, very clear about it. Because every time Biden or Harris says some strongly worded letters, then you know how comes out and goes, ha ha ha ha, what do I care? I don't care about you idiots. Shut up and do as you're told. Okay, and he humiliated Biden, how many times, dozens of times?
Starting point is 00:52:10 So there's only one thing they care about, the money, the money. If you're sending them money, then they're fine. They don't care about your stupid words, and it's a game they're playing. It's not like Kamala Harris or Joe Biden cares. And if you think Donald Trump cares, he says, just finish them already. He's the worst of all of them. But none of them are good. They're all liars, and they all keep it real.
Starting point is 00:52:31 You see this? And then you say I'm deeply concerned, but send them a $3.5 billion check. No, you're not deeply concerned. You don't mind it one bit. And back to Israel for a second, you know, they said that in that report, 19 Hamas fighters, because that's what the IDF said. If the IDF says it, our idiot media just says, oh, IDF says it, it must be true. It's not anywhere near true, not no evidence of that at all, never presented it.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Just like with UNRRA, they never presented any evidence that they were working with Hamas. They just flat out lied about it. Even America says, well, we don't have any evidence, so, but anyway, we're gonna cut their funding anyway. So in this case, after the 19, they came out a little while later and said, yeah, we think it was 38 now, which is conveniently double of 19. Somebody just too exed it. And now their media's dutifully reporting.
Starting point is 00:53:18 Of course, 38 Hamas members killed, of course. No, BS. And if you think that Israel accidentally killed 40,000 people, sorry, but, I mean, I look, I could call you a lot of words. But let's just be super nice and say you're blinded by your preposterous bias. They're obviously killing people on purpose that are civilians. If you don't know that, you're just sounding absolutely ridiculous. Oops, we murdered kids again and again and again and journalists and human rights workers
Starting point is 00:53:52 and another school and another school. Oh, look, there's their body parts all over the fields. Oops, silly us, we're just the worst military in the world. And now the US is sending a US aircraft carrier group and a submarine. So why are they doing that? Because Israel commanded us to send our military, put our service members lives in danger. Why? Because they wanted to bomb Tehran, Beirut and Damascus.
Starting point is 00:54:19 So now they did and they murdered people in those places. They go, what do you mean? We're allowed to murder anyone we like in any country. No, that's not a thing. It is not international law, that no one is allowed to murder people in other countries except Israel. That is not a thing. So you can't go and bomb their capitals and do assassinations in the middle of their
Starting point is 00:54:36 capitals and go, what, what? They want to strike back. If they strike back, America, go send your kids to die. Give me more money, give me more money. Israel's starting this war, it's super obvious, unless you're blinded by revenge, kill all Palestinians. I'm sick of it. Fifty-seven years of brutal oppression and occupation. What is it goddamn enough?
Starting point is 00:54:57 No, more revenge, more revenge. You think it helps Israel to be loathed by the whole world? You're so blinded by your rage, you can't see straight. The whole world hates you. And it's not because, oh, they were all all these anti-Semitic, anti-Semitic, anti-Semites, anti-Semites, look, it might get you through the night, but it doesn't actually help you to lie to yourself. They don't hate you because they're randomly anti-Semitic.
Starting point is 00:55:22 They hate you because you just killed 40,000 people. right in front of their eyes. Their body parts are all over the fields. We can see it on video. There's decapinated kids. There's starving children. They look like they're out of 1930s Germany. That's what the pictures look identical. Nope, nope, nope. It's not because of all of that. It's because everyone's an anti-Semite. Okay, whatever you want, but I can't stand how corrupt our politicians are. Yeah. I don't, I'm not an Israeli. I'm not a Palestinian. I'm going to make a And the fact that we fund these massacres, one slaughter after another, and then we send them thank you checks afterwards, and then put our kids' lives in danger for this maniac,
Starting point is 00:56:08 genocidal maniac, Netanyahu, one of the worst terrorists of my lifetime. And they give them standing ovations, our politicians are pathetic and totally corrupt. But they want to end endless wars, Jank. Ha, ha, ha. Yeah, and where's the Republicans on ending wars? A lot of BS talking about, oh, no, we're the anti-war party now. Do you see how much those Republican politicians in Congress were kissing Netanyahu's ass? Yeah. Oh, like, oh, more money, can we please end you more money for more war?
Starting point is 00:56:38 Oh, you want our kids to die? Right away, go die for Net and Yahoo, go ahead. Mike Johnson, Mitch McConnell, all those, Donald Trump, the top one. Oh, yeah, oh, Miriam Aydos has given me $18 million a week. Let him annex the West Bank, move to Capitol. I'll do anything for the donors. I'll do anything for the donors. That's who that bitch Trump is.
Starting point is 00:56:55 So Trump is the worst, Kamala Harris guys, I hate to break your heart. If you're a naive kid and you don't haven't seen any politics, you think Kamala Harris is going to be your savior, on this issue, she's going to take the donor money and do exactly what the donors told her. I hate this, as my daughter says, spoil the beans, but that's what's going to happen. There's no question about it and everybody's going to pretend that she's not doing that and she's warm and cuddly because she's a Democrat. She's not. And Kamala Harris, prove me wrong.
Starting point is 00:57:24 Get the ceasefire. Get the ceasefire. I'll give you all the credit in the world. But you're not going to do any of that because you're never going to threaten their funds. A ceasefire is not going to happen. Get the embargo. Get the embargo, babe. Then we'll take you seriously. But meanwhile, speaking of that money, it's all going actually to oust some really incredible people here elected by, you know, Americans.
Starting point is 00:57:46 And so we have to just talk about this before we bounce for our first hour. Representative Ilhan Omar is facing her primary tomorrow. primary tomorrow against Don Samuels in Minnesota. And while A-Pact money actually hasn't been pouring into this race, surprisingly, it's been around. The Intercept actually got access to a private chat of donors and activists called Zionists for Don Samuels. And they are boasting about some of the last minute funding halls and also floating some wild and very anti-Semitic strategies for beating Representative Omar.
Starting point is 00:58:22 Samuels, this 24 campaign actually has been lagging against Omar in fundraising. Her $1.6 million haul in the quarter ending June 30th, dwarfed Samuels $535,000. But Wesley Bell's defeat of Bush, Corey Bush in August 6th primary, spurred a late donation boost. Minnesota posted a screenshot, or sorry, Minn, not Minnesota. Min posted a screenshot of in the WhatsApp chat showing almost $100,000 was raised for the campaign in the 24 hours after Bush's lost. Min used to work on the Don Samuels campaign, apparently no longer does.
Starting point is 00:58:58 But who are these people who are on this chat? Members of the Zionists for Don Samuels group hail from various locations. Some from Minneapolis, others based in New York, Puerto Rico. Some have supported former President Donald Trump and other Republicans. Others are regular Democratic donors who have expressed disillusionment with the party over Israel. You know, we're not just getting the weapons fast enough over to them. But one of those people again, Alexander Min sent this to that group chat. Hi everybody.
Starting point is 00:59:25 My name is Alexander Min. I work for the campaign. We all have the power to help get rid of the squad. And public enemy, number one, to the Jews, Israel and America, Ilhan Omar, spoken like a Republican. Even though, is he? No. Apparently, again, he no longer works for it. But the big kicker is this.
Starting point is 00:59:46 One of the participants in this group chat is named Michael Sineski. He's a wealthy entrepreneur. He helped raise $120,000 for Samuels back in 2022 via his Super PAC Make a Difference that was also used by APEC to bundle $350,000 to Samuels, an additional $350,000. And he had an incredibly messed up little thought experiment here. He sent this out to the chat. He said, quote, the bottom line is, and it's a sad. one. We need to be supportive on a presidential level of the alt-right
Starting point is 01:00:20 Christian neo-Nazis at the moment like Ukraine. Not sure what that means. To fight off the socialist Marxist anarchists who are supporting radical Islam. Nazis are better than Islamic terrorists at this moment in time for president. On a state and city level it's different as with proof proof with us supporting Richie and Federman. Richie Torres and John Federman obviously a reference to Senator John Federman, obviously in his incredible support for this genocidal regime. He was asked to respond to those insane comments by The Intercept, and he said this to them. He said, quote, well, I've mostly supported Democrats.
Starting point is 01:01:02 The rise in anti-Semitism within the party has shaken my confidence, given the stakes. I now feel that the current Republican Party, despite its flaws, offers stronger support for Israel and Jewish safety in America in regards to the presidential race. Oh my effing God, here we are the guy who is dined with Nick Fuentes, who let us remember when he was elected, Richard Spencer was hiling Hitler in like a Westin hotel. And in Jewish cemeteries, neo-Nazis were toppling headstones in celebration. Also, Tree of Life Synagogue Massacre shooter was inspired by Donald Trump. His only problem what Trump was, he didn't go far enough. But okay, sure, the Republicans will keep American Jews safe.
Starting point is 01:01:44 This is so disgusting. Yeah. So a lot of these donors are right wingers, as Francesca explained. But some of them, like the guy should quoted at the end there, said, look, in a different part, he explained, I'm a one issue voter. I only care about Israel. And then if you said to him, hey, it seems like you care about Israel more than you care about anything happening in America.
Starting point is 01:02:08 And you're just giving this money to tell someone, you should serve Israel as the legislator from Minnesota, he would say, I'm outraged. How dare you say that? But brother, I didn't say you said it. You said the only thing you care about is Israel. That's why you're giving tons of money to this person running against Ilhan Omar, and you want to eliminate her on behalf of Israel. I didn't say it. You said it. So now, if you think that was bad, I mean, look at that other quote that Francesca just read you. They don't mind working with Nazis now. Look at how much they've lost a threat. Originally, Israel was supposed to be a safe, for Jews. Now Israel has become a government detached from Judaism in any way, shape or form.
Starting point is 01:02:51 So now they say, I don't care if it keeps Jews safe. I don't care if Jews are safe at all. I'll work with Nazis, as long as beloved Israel is served. Like this, the government of Israel has taken on some life of its own where people have lost their minds. They forgot it and originally it was supposed to be a safe haven to protect Jewish people. Now they're like who we're putting Jews in dangers, who cares? Let's come on bringing the Nazis, bring in the Nazis, Israel, Israel is more important than Jews. What the hell is Israel for then?
Starting point is 01:03:23 It's so dumb. I mean, you can't lose a thread more than that and you can't lose your morality more than that. So now they're going around trying to eliminate any U.S. politician that dares to disagree with Israel. Not that is bad to Jewish Americans or Jews or anything, no, that's, they don't care. Nazis, come on in, we don't care. And by the way, how about APEC?
Starting point is 01:03:48 They eliminated Andy Levin. Andy Levin was a Jewish politician, a legislator in the House from Michigan. He was a perfectly great politician. He was progressive adjacent. He never even barely, he barely criticized Israel. He just said, I want a two-state solution. They're like, who cares? Eliminate 11.
Starting point is 01:04:09 Israel's way more important than Jewish Americans. Of course. Israel above all. That's what happens when you lose your mind. So why is, by the way, APEC not in this race? Because APEC wants to send a message to Congress that they are invincible. That if you ever go one centimeter off of Netanyahu's approved script, that they will eliminate you and you'll be done.
Starting point is 01:04:32 So everyone in Congress must serve Israel. That is Apex message. And it's, it's unquestionable. So now why not be in this race? Because they just spent $25 million eliminating two Congress people. Mission accomplished, scared the living crap out of everyone in Congress. They don't want to go to an Ilhan Omar race and lose. So they're like, they're worried about losing the Ilhan Omar because it's such a safe district.
Starting point is 01:04:59 I know she had a trouble last time, but that was based on beef on the police and not this issue. And so they couldn't find a weakness there and they didn't want to show that they were, that they could lose. But hey, I think that was smart strategy. Right now, every member of Congress will do anything to not any member of Congress. Thank God for the just Democrats and Bernie Sanders and others that are strong and defy APEC, Jamie Raskin, et cetera, right? But the rest of them, 80% of Congress would lick the boots of APEC in public and do it proudly and go, did I do a good enough job?
Starting point is 01:05:35 Including, by the ways, as you notice, Richie Torres and Fetterman, did you notice that? little Easter egg in there, how they bragged about how we have these boys, Fetterman and Torres, who are puppets, and we sick them on people. And so, well, thank you for giving away the game. Just lastly, the way they sick them on people is John Federman being, you know, sicked on the pro-Palestine slash anti-genocide demonstrators. Remember this tweet that he had, I fully agree with the White House. These protests are anti-Semitic, unconscionable, and dangerous. Add some tiki torches, and it's Charlottesville for these Jewish students. That was about the Columbia. protests. Oh no, no, no, no. But now pro-Zionist groups, pro-Israel groups love Charlottesville.
Starting point is 01:06:15 So long as it means they're Christian Zionists, right? Christian Zionists who are like, yeah, yeah, get all the Jews, you know, over to Israel so that, you know, Jesus come back and then a third of you will like perish or convert. I don't know, who cares? You convert or die. It doesn't matter. Just so that is them openly embracing it. It is disgusting. It is a slap in the face. And to all the liberal Zionists out there, look at the bedfellows that this issue has created and look at all the other American Jews who are leading the way for peace in this country. And understand, this has nothing to do with anti-Semitism. It is nothing to do with keeping American Jews safe. It has to do with propping up a murderous regime in Israel.
Starting point is 01:06:56 All right, we gotta go. We're way over time. Yes. All right. Thank you, Francesca. Everybody check her out on The Vituation Room and Francesca Furentini.com. All right, we'll be right back. I'm gonna. You know, but... I don't know.
