There 72 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 3: probably never will be. But he has done the best 73 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 3: job that there is of putting all the breadcrumbs together 74 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 3: and he can tell us a cohesive narrative. 75 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 4: So I'm really excited to tell you.

The most interesting things to 78 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 4: come out of this or the fully declassified Selessenger memo, 79 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 4: and also the Angleton testimony that he gave in nineteen 80 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 4: seventy seventy five. This is a guy who's basically handling 81 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 4: the Israel file. He was working on the Castro assassinations, 82 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 4: and now we have his full testimony from this seventy 83 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 4: five hearing. Here you go. It's not going to tell 84 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 4: us exactly who shot Kennedy, but it's interesting stuff about 85 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 4: our history. 86 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: Right Well, that's you know, it's funny. 87 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 3: There's a conservative influencer YouTuber out there who recently went 88 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,119 Speaker 3: viral for saying I don't care who killed JFK's like, yeah, 89 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 3: it's interesting. I'll just say it's Benchapiro, So like, yeah, 90 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 3: I think it's interesting, but you know, it's he was 91 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 3: shot in nineteen sixty three, and it's like, yeah, but 92 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 3: you know something, Oliver Stone when we had him here 93 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 3: on the show really hit home for me. It's it's like, yeah, 94 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 3: it is history, but the reason it matters is because 95 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 3: the knife's turn of that history let us down a 96 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 3: catastrophic path, and the one that we can still rediscover 97 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 3: of JFK's basically the American University speech, the peace speech, affectively, 98 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 3: the one that got him killed, if you believe that, 99 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 3: is really a legacy of somebody who himself had seen 100 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 3: the inside of the deep state, he had seen how 101 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 3: it almost destroyed him. His presidency wanted to take a 102 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 3: different path for after the devastation of the Cuban missile 103 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 3: crisis and how that mentally affected him, a man who 104 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: literally swam miles with a life strap, a life veest 105 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 3: strap in his teeth from the bar with a broken back, 106 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 3: trying to save people who saw the face of what 107 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 3: war actually means and instead, his murder leads to the 108 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 3: war in Vietnam. I mean, the written Nixon, a decade 109 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 3: of millions dead in Southeast Asia, the prolongation of the 110 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 3: Cold War for multiple decades. So yeah, I think, Sorry, 111 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 3: mister Shapiro, I do think it's still the Yeah, it 112 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 3: matters a lot. 113 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 4: And people will wave away that history and say that 114 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 4: it's just a fairy tale about Camelot, But right, it's plausible. 115 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 3: There's great avidute. No one's saying the guy was Jesus Christ. Okay, 116 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 3: he had a lot of issues. 117 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:41,919 Speaker 1: You can go. 118 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 3: Actually, some of the best parts that the JFK files 119 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 3: for me is going and reading all those South Vietnam 120 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 3: assessments and how deeply they are. They're like, oh, Ninden 121 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 3: whatever is doing this and a previo assassination and they're like, 122 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 3: oh in this province, this governor is saying, and you're like, 123 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 3: oh my god. I mean, it's worse than I even 124 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 3: imagine in terms of the puppet mastery of trying to 125 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 3: you this fake experiment of South Vietnam the entire time, 126 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 3: and they just would not give up if anything showed 127 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 3: us how ideological it really was. So sure he was 128 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,679 Speaker 3: responsible for that, but he was starting to have different 129 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 3: thoughts there near the end, and I think that's what 130 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 3: got him killed. So anyway, let's get to the group chat, 131 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 3: shall we. This is just unbelievable. Like I said, Jeffrey 132 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 3: Goldberg the the most pre eminent neo conservative journalist in 133 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 3: the United States, There's no question, beat the drums for 134 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 3: the Iraq war, beat the drums for Obama bombing Iran. 135 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 3: Actually believe that might be his most shameful episode is 136 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 3: whenever He basically was a cutout for the Net and 137 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 3: Yahoo government to try to put pressure on Obama to 138 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: the BOMBA. 139 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 4: He wrote a cover story within six months, right to 140 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 4: bomb exact Ron. 141 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 3: This was all designed, you know, basically to push in 142 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 3: the Obama administration in a direction of wanting to bomb 143 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 3: n That's not even me saying it. Ben Rhodes and 144 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 3: others basically said the same thing. 145 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 1: At the time. 146 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 4: They're like, this is ludicrous. 147 00:06:58,920 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: Some of us. Don't forget here. 148 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 3: Jeff of course he's also written all these stories since 149 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 3: the Suckers and Losers hoax. 150 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: If you will, he could believe it if you want to. 151 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 3: I don't know what to tell you if you do, 152 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 3: But if you want to believe that that's the person 153 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 3: who wrote it. He did some famous interviews there with Obama. 154 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 3: But Trump in particular hates Jeffrey Goldberg specifically because of 155 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 3: this whole suckers and losers stories. So there's really no 156 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 3: where he said a bunch of like that Trump called 157 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 3: some veterans, that's right. 158 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 4: One. 159 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, he said that the people were killed during role 160 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 3: allegedly said that according to John. 161 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 4: Kelly, and everybody involved says that he didn't say that. 162 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 3: Except for John Kelly, who was the chief of staff, 163 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 3: who also hates Trump and can't camp in and gets him, 164 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 3: so okay, and he decided not to go on the 165 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 3: record about it until three years later. 166 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: So you can decide that. 167 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 4: Trump saying something crass about veteran tho. 168 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's possible. 169 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 3: I'm not saying it's not possible, but it's one of 170 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 3: those where, look, I just think. 171 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: It would have compied. 172 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 3: Point is Trump hates them, Trump hats all right, So 173 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 3: there's really no good reason for a national security advisor 174 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 3: to have this guy's cell phone number. And here's the 175 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 3: inside story from Jeffrey Goldberg about how this all went down. 176 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: He was all over television last night. Let's take a look. 177 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 5: The Houthis are not going to know about this for 178 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 5: another couple of hours, and you know about it, well 179 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 5: what I know about it? And I'm thinking myself, I mean, honestly, 180 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,679 Speaker 5: I'm thinking to myself, well, I'm glad that Mike Waltz 181 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 5: didn't invite a HOUTHI into the group, or a Russian 182 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 5: spy or an adversary of the United States. But put that, 183 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 5: put that aside. I'm reading this and I'm wondering, not 184 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 5: only why am I reading this, but why would the 185 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 5: Secretary of the Treasury need to know the precise attack 186 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 5: sequence of this upcoming operation. Again, I don't want to 187 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 5: talk about weapons, systems, packages, targets in any specificity, because 188 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,559 Speaker 5: you know, I just I'm trying to be I want 189 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 5: to be a responsible person and I'm more interested in 190 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 5: the decision making anyway than i am in the. 191 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 4: Actual technical details of it. 192 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,719 Speaker 5: But the thing is just very flum mixing to me, 193 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 5: because I haven't seen this kind of unseerious behavior before. 194 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 5: And you know, and the secondary defense, all due respect, 195 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 5: in that presentation seems like a person who's unseerious and 196 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 5: is trying to deflect from the fact that he participated 197 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 5: in a conversation on an unclassified commercial messaging app that 198 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 5: he probably shouldn't have participated in, and. 199 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 4: There are receipts for it, which is always the danger 200 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 4: of that. 201 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 3: So the receipts, as we said, let's go and put 202 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 3: these up there on the screen. You can't make this 203 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 3: shit up, you really can't. So Goldberg gets added to 204 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 3: this group chat. This group chat ends up having JD. Vans, 205 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 3: Pete Hegsath, Marco Rubio, Telsea Gabbert, Steve Wickcoff, Steven Miller, 206 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 3: Mike Waltz. Mike Waltz by the way, according to Goldberg, 207 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 3: and this is not disputed by the White House, who 208 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 3: says this is an authentic chain where decisions were made, 209 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 3: adds Jeffrey Goldberg. Here where the full discussion and debate 210 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 3: around bombing Yemen and the who theies is all taking place. 211 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 3: So the first message here is from JD. Vance at 212 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 3: Pete Hegsath, if you think we should do it, let's go. 213 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 3: I just hate bailing eure Ape out again. Let's just 214 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 3: make sure our message is tight here. If there are 215 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 3: things that we can do upfront to minimize risks to 216 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 3: Saudi Oil, facilities we should do, so let's go to 217 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 3: the next one. Please, Pete hexav VP share, I fully 218 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 3: share your loading of European free loading. It's pathetic, but 219 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 3: Mike is correct. We are the only ones on the 220 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 3: planet on our side of the ledger who can do this. 221 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 3: Nobody else is even close. Question is timing. I feel 222 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 3: like now is as good a time as any given 223 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 3: POTUS directive to reopen shipping lanes. I think we should go, 224 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 3: but POTAS still retains twenty four hours of decision space. 225 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 3: Steven Miller quote, as I heard it, the President was 226 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 3: clear green light, but we should soon make clear Egypt 227 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 3: in Europe what we expect in return. We need to 228 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 3: figure out how do we enforce such a requirement. 229 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: Eg. 230 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 3: If Europe doesn't remunerate, then what if the US successfully 231 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 3: restores freedom of navigation at great cost? There needs to 232 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 3: be some further economic game extracted in return. And what 233 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 3: we did not have here is that before these messages 234 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 3: there was actually some descent from JD Vance where he said, 235 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 3: quote three percent of US trade runs through Suez, forty 236 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 3: percent of European does. There is a real RISKBLIC does 237 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 3: not understand this or why it's necessary. The strongest reason 238 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 3: to do this, as Potas said, is to send a message. 239 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 3: Vance continues. 240 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: I am not. 241 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 3: Sure the President is aware how inconsistent this is with 242 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 3: his message on Europe. Right now, there's a further risk 243 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 3: that we see a moderate to severe spike in oil. 244 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: I am willing to support the. 245 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 3: Consensus of a team and keep these concerns myself, but 246 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 3: there is a strong argument for delaying this a month, 247 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 3: doing the messaging work on why this matter, seeing where 248 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 3: the economy is, etc. So a lot of things being 249 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 3: revealed there behind the scenes. Number one, there's only one 250 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 3: voice actually in the group chat, Ryan, who seems to 251 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 3: have any sense or reason, Who's like, hey, why does 252 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 3: this matter? Actually for us? It seems to matter a 253 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 3: lot for Europe. There's a little country with the name 254 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 3: I whose name is also not mentioned there about who 255 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 3: it's super important too, but not all that important for us? Right, 256 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 3: Why are we doing this? Could shoot up oil prices? 257 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 3: It's not consistent with the Europe message. And the best 258 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 3: part is that Mike Waltz in the chat is the 259 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 3: one who's like some brain dead neoliberal being like, but 260 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 3: freedom of navigation is so how important? You know, like 261 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 3: really like empire or unipolar moment type stuff. So you 262 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 3: get ideological divisions very clearly happening in the group chat. 263 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,359 Speaker 3: You get also, though, just the sheer incompetence and idiocy 264 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 3: of a person who adds accidentally a journalist to a 265 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 3: group chatal and. 266 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 4: It was Mike Waller. 267 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 3: There's no disputing this. That's why I want people to understand. 268 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 3: The NSC has come out and said this is an 269 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 3: authentic chain, and the chain of events in which it 270 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 3: happened is how it happened. Mike Wallace accidentally adds Jeffrey 271 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 3: Goldberg to this chat where he's basically lurking and watching 272 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 3: this debate happen, and then, according to Goldberg, sharing the 273 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 3: war plans or the strike package or whatever. Pete Hegseth 274 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 3: has disputed that, and we're going to get to that 275 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:42,719 Speaker 3: in a little bit. 276 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: But let's say, even if. 277 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 3: There was no classified information that was being discussed there, 278 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 3: to add accidentally a journalist to highly sensitive internal deliberations 279 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 3: over a wartime maneuver of bombing a foreign country is 280 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 3: just insane in any normal administration. 281 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: He's fired yesterday, not even fired. 282 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 3: He resigns for the good of the president and yet 283 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 3: this is where we are Ryan, So it's an show. 284 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 4: And it's it'd be one thing if he's like US 285 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 4: trade representative, right, who was apparently who was trying to add, Yes, 286 00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 4: he's national security advice. He's you got to be good 287 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 4: at that stuff, especially when you're he's in the thread 288 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 4: talking about how his opsec is on point. Yes, It's like, bro, 289 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 4: you just tweeted to a journalist or she just yeah, 290 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 4: d M. Journey that your object is tight, your op 291 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 4: sect is tight. But I will give jd vance credit, Like, 292 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 4: I think his argument is a little bit uh silly. 293 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 3: But he didn't understand who we're talk about exactly. He's exactly, 294 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 3: he's existent within the magnet framework. 295 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 4: If I were making the argument to not bomb Yemen, 296 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 4: I would make the same argument. Because this is to 297 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 4: those guys. I wouldn't come in and be like, well, actually, 298 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 4: the hoho Thi's are correct here right in the in 299 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 4: the sense that it is there right under the now 300 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 4: and their obligation under the Geneva Inventions to stop a 301 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 4: genocide that they see unfolding. They have told Israel to 302 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 4: continue to allow the flow of medicine, food, and water 303 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 4: into Gaza and that is their obligation on their genief conisies. 304 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 4: Therefore we should not bomb. That's not the argument I 305 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 4: would make to this gang of warmongers. I would say 306 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 4: exactly what Jada Van said. Let's couch this in the America. First, 307 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 4: we hate Europe's stuff, which and the one reason I 308 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 4: say it's such a silly argument. I understand tactically why 309 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 4: he made it. But from the silliness perspective, two things 310 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 4: A Europe didn't really have anything to do with the crisis. 311 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 4: Like Europe passively supports the US's support of Israel, and 312 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 4: half or more of those countries send weapons and depth 313 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 4: diplomatic support to Israel. So they're on the hook, but 314 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 4: they're not driving this train. The United States and Israel 315 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 4: are driving this train. But the more important point, which 316 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 4: never got discussed in this conversation over signal, is that 317 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 4: their plan has no intention of even working. Right their plan, 318 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 4: the missiles they send will blow up, they will hit buildings, 319 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 4: they will kill people like so that part of it 320 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 4: will work. But the idea that it was going to 321 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 4: get the Hoothies to stop the blockade was never discussed. Yes, 322 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 4: because it wasn't going to happen. 323 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: It's literally impossible. 324 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 3: Today was the blockade is still happening, that's right, And 325 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 3: if it was possible to bomb them out of his business, 326 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 3: then Biden would have done it, okay, and then the 327 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 3: Saudis would have done it before them. 328 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: We're not the first people to make. 329 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 4: An amazing quote from Biden when he was bombing Yemen, 330 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 4: a reporter asked him about it. Remember he said, are 331 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 4: the strikes working? 332 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 6: No? 333 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:44,479 Speaker 4: Will they continue? 334 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 3: Yes? 335 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 4: Yeah? 336 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: Okay, got it. 337 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, in his dementia addled mind, he 338 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 3: was actually honest for once. So here's the first reaction 339 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 3: here from Pete haig Seth after he lands on the 340 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 3: ground in Hawaii immediately after the story breaks. 341 00:15:58,960 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: Let's take a listen. 342 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 7: You're talking about a deceitful and highly discredited so called 343 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 7: journalists who's made a profession of pedaling hoaxes time and 344 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 7: time again, to include the I don't know the hoaxes 345 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 7: of Russia Russia Russia, or the fine people on both 346 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 7: sides hoax or suckers and losers hopes. So this is 347 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,479 Speaker 7: the guy that pedals in garbage. 348 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 4: This is what he does. 349 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 7: I would love to comment on the Houthie campaign because 350 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 7: of the skill and courage. 351 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 8: Of our troops. 352 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 7: I've monitored very closely from the beginning, and you see, 353 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 7: we've been managing four years of deferred maintenance under the 354 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 7: Trump administration. Our troops, our sailors were getting shot at 355 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 7: as targets, our ships couldn't sail through, and when they 356 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 7: did shoot back, it was purely defensively or at shacks 357 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 7: and Yemen. President Trump said no more. We will re 358 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 7: establish deterrence, we will open freedom of navigation, and we 359 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 7: will ultimately decimate the Houthis, which is exactly what we're 360 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 7: doing as we speak, from the beginning overwhelmingly. 361 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: So that's basically all he had. You can tell he's 362 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: pretty upset about all this. 363 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,959 Speaker 4: You know, he's playing a Trump He's playing he's Remindingelbert Well. 364 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 3: Actually, that's a great point, is that on television he's like, Hey, 365 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 3: by the way, you know their person who Mike Wallace 366 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 3: had this phone number for was the guy who made 367 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 3: up this story, or at least reported this story, who 368 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 3: you believe is made up. And yeah, he's messaging there. 369 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 3: But I can tell you this, inside the administration, people 370 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 3: are furious with Mike Waller. It's basic competence, like it's 371 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 3: one thing if you accidentally do it, you know, with 372 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 3: your friends or whatever. What we are told from this 373 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 3: administration is what we're firing tens of thousands of federal workers. 374 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 3: We're dozing the government to make it more efficient and 375 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 3: only the best of the best. Wilson meritocracy. I believe 376 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 3: in meritocracy. I believe in excellence. Nothing about this screams 377 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 3: meritocracy or excellence. It just screams absolute stupidity. And there's 378 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 3: a different word I could use, but I won't work. 379 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 3: Right now, here's Donald Trump's reaction, pulling the old RBG. 380 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 3: You're telling me for the first time.

I'm looking at 518 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 3: the deadest weight I've ever seen here at the top 519 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 3: of the Principles Committee. 520 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: Not to mention. 521 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 3: Somebody who is genuinely stupid, not just for doing this, 522 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 3: but listen to his messages.

It's crazy to watch, And there's 526 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 4: a lot of people kind of pearl clutching about the 527 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 4: nature of the security breach. But it turns out there 528 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 4: may actually have been like an actual breach. So Witkough, 529 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 4: who is a real estate developer. Yes, so this guy 530 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 4: not a guy that you can imagine has even two 531 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 4: factor on his phone, you know, let alone you know, 532 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 4: his phone on lockdown mode or taking the types of 533 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 4: op SEC that you would need to be doing as 534 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 4: somebody in his position and power.

It's not allowed. You 559 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 3: can't download signal on your government phone. I confirmed this 560 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 3: with multiple people who have had top secret security clearances, 561 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 3: and I was like, Hey, tell me how this is 562 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 3: all supposed to work, and they're like, dude, if I was, 563 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 3: you know, I remember I covered the Hillary email scandal 564 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 3: back in twenty sixteen. I actually wrote a story about 565 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 3: a Navy sailor who accidentally had shared photos when he 566 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 3: was on a nuclear submarine.

He was prosecuted, he served time in the brig. 569 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 3: So the people I spoke to were like, yeah, if 570 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 3: I was at whatever E three in the Navy and 571 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 3: I did this, I would be prosecuted. And these guys 572 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 3: are doing it at the highest level of government and 573 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 3: not to and then even if you're going to do it, 574 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,479 Speaker 3: be subtle about it.

It's more convenient. 579 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 3: I got everybody going to a stripe, right yeah, exactly 580 00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 3: who's going to skif they it's the weekend. 581 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 4: Right yeah? 582 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 3: Send email on your It's called high side. That's how 583 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 3: it works. 584 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: The high side. 585 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 3: You can only access we can only access it inside 586 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 3: of a skiff.

So the reason why they do it 592 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,640 Speaker 3: is because, like you said, it's more convenient. It's got 593 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 3: disappearing messages, et cetera. But you know the downside of 594 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 3: that is, as usual, what what does the hacker do 595 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:30,679 Speaker 3: whenever the system is impenetrable, you do you find the 596 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 3: weakest Like and. 597 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 4: Here he didn't mean have to find anything. 598 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 3: He just let his own stupidity and incompetence give all 599 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 3: this away. 600 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 4: And the savage the savvy cybersecurity guys will always say 601 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 4: that the problem with the system is when it becomes 602 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 4: too inconvenient for users. Yes, that's right, and you know, 603 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 4: so you'll have like, you know, the two factors. People 604 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 4: have figured that out, authenticator codes. People are basically figuring 605 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 4: that out. But back in the day when you used 606 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 4: to have like you know, PGP and downloading keys and 607 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 4: uploading this, and it became so cumbersome that people basically 608 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 4: stopped using it and went back to insecure channels. So 609 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 4: the government has these you have to be on a 610 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 4: particular laptop or that you have to be you have 611 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 4: to leave your cell phone and go into a room 612 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,239 Speaker 4: that has lead walls around it.

If you remember, 732 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 4: northern Gaza suffered the worst of the genocidal assault by 733 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 4: Israel throughout the war. It was the first place that 734 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 4: where people were displaced down to the south, and Shabbat 735 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 4: was one of the very few journalists who both refused 736 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 4: to leave and refused until yesterday to die so that 737 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 4: he could bear witness to the ongoing assault on his people. 738 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 4: There we can put up this element. There's been a 739 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 4: lot of images that have been going around of Hosam. 740 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 4: This is the moment when the ceasefire was you know, 741 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 4: finally implemented back in January and the feeling of euphoria 742 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 4: to have survived this genocidal assault. Here is another video 743 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 4: that's that's been going around, which is a young girl 744 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 4: stops him because you know, he had become a true 745 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 4: hero to so many throughout Gaza for his relentless willingness 746 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 4: to you know, run toward the fire to report what 747 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 4: was what was going on. And so here is this 748 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 4: young girl who's telling him that she had heard that 749 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 4: he had been martyred, uh and it was devastating to 750 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 4: her that hope, hope had drained from her when she 751 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 4: had heard that rumor, because you know, there would be 752 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 4: a lot of rumors that he had been killed because 753 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 4: he was put on a literal hit list by the 754 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 4: IDF before before he was finally assassinated for her, so 755 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 4: when she saw him in person to realize that he 756 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 4: was he was still there, still still steadfast, still reporting. 757 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 4: She was telling him it was giving her hope that 758 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 4: she could pursue her dream of becoming a journalist so 759 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 4: she could speak the truth. And underneath it all is 760 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 4: this this poignant belief that if the world only understood 761 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 4: what was happening in Gaza, that the world, whatever the 762 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 4: world is, that the world would step in, that the 763 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 4: that there's that there's no way that we live in 764 00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 4: a on a planet that would allow this to happen. 765 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 4: That the only explanation, the only way that you can 766 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 4: rationalize the decency of humanity is that people just don't know. 767 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 4: And so therefore you go out and you risk your 768 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 4: life to make sure that people know, and then people 769 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,080 Speaker 4: will step in and say this is wrong, this has 770 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 4: to stop. I think a lot of people, Hosam, I 771 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:27,439 Speaker 4: think towards the end have come to the conclusion that 772 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 4: that may not be true, that the world does knows, 773 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 4: nobody's going to stop it. 774 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, in your discussions with him, was he aware that 775 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,280 Speaker 3: he was going to be targeted by these Oh yes military? 776 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 4: Oh yes, they publicly they publicly announced that they intended 777 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 4: to target him in five other journalists. And what's the 778 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 4: just they were saying that the same justification that they 779 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 4: use that he's a terrorist, right, which is like he's 780 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 4: twenty three years old. He's been live streaming his life 781 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 4: since October seventh. When did he have time to do 782 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:02,399 Speaker 4: this secret terrorism?

You know, look, 814 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 3: he has very little power, he can't really do anything 815 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,360 Speaker 3: about it. But people need to understand he's a Jerusalem 816 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,840 Speaker 3: based correspondent for Fox News. He is really military, can 817 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 3: kick his ass out anytime that they want or not 818 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 3: invite him on their little press tours inside of Gaza. 819 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 3: So he's doing this at a literal risk to his 820 00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 3: life inside of Israel, considering the you know, like the 821 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 3: the animosity and the way that you'll have governments ancstoring 822 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 3: violence if they want to against any American who's inside 823 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 3: of the country and basically just hoping, you know, there's 824 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 3: enough of us out here in the you know, world 825 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,399 Speaker 3: superpower who might speak up for him or for. 826 00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 4: People to like and including twenty twenty three and also 827 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 4: twenty twenty five.

Yeah, since since since the start 830 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 4: of the war. And yes, Trey has been criticized every 831 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 4: time he stands up, and he continues to do it. 832 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 4: I wish that more journalists would would do so because 833 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 4: israel Is feels a deep sense of impunity, but not 834 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 4: a complete and total sense of impunity. And so their 835 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:53,839 Speaker 4: ability to kill more than two hundred members of the 836 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 4: media over the past year and a half plus and 837 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 4: only get criticism from US here and from Trey, has 838 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 4: emboldened them to continue to do it and to put 839 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 4: people on a list and say we're going to kill them, 840 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 4: to then kill them, and then to announce that they 841 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 4: killed them and say that they did it because they're terrorists. 842 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 3: At the very same time, Ryan, we got this from 843 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 3: the Financial Times, curious for what your reaction is. Quote 844 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:23,720 Speaker 3: Israel Ready, let's put it up there on the screen. 845 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:27,280 Speaker 3: Israel Ready's plans for the occupation of Gaza. 846 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 1: So what is military like? 847 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 3: What is distinctive of this as opposed to previous quote occupations? 848 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,439 Speaker 3: Is this like settlement or is this you know, they've 849 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 3: had invasion, they've had troops on the ground, obviously, I 850 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 3: forget the name of the corridor that they've occupied. What 851 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 3: makes this like a next step in the military campaign. 852 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 4: So what they are saying is they're going to clear 853 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,239 Speaker 4: out huge areas of it and keep everybody in the 854 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 4: sell Malwassee corridor, which would cannot hold the number of 855 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,799 Speaker 4: people that they're saying would fit in there. They have, 856 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 4: but they have also created a basically department of Ethnic cleansing, 857 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 4: a Ministry of Ethnic Cleansing that is going to facilitate 858 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,799 Speaker 4: this is what the agency says it's going to do, 859 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 4: facilitate the removal of Palestinians from Gaza. So the idea 860 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 4: would be that maybe you can't fit all of the 861 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:21,800 Speaker 4: Palestinians who are there now, well, they're going to continue 862 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 4: killing them for some period of time. They're going to 863 00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 4: continue dying of malnourishment. You know, there has been no 864 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 4: food that has gotten in since March second, and then 865 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 4: they're going to keep the rest cramped in here Now, 866 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 4: this does not account for how they plan on eliminating Hamas, 867 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:44,799 Speaker 4: which they failed to do after you know, a year 868 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 4: and a half long campaign. It doesn't account for the tunnels, 869 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 4: it doesn't account for the lack of kind of reservists 870 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:55,279 Speaker 4: and manpower. 871 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 12: On which they are having major problems with, and it 872 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:02,359 Speaker 12: doesn't account for ammunition, like they fired off so much, 873 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 12: you know it, so many tank shells and so many 874 00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 12: one five millimeter shells in this genocide so far that 875 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 12: they're running. 876 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,280 Speaker 4: You know, they've been able to replenish in the meantime, 877 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 4: but our production capacity is not unlimited, and they're firing 878 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 4: it off at a pace that is higher than we 879 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 4: can produce and that Pakistan and anybody else can secretly 880 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:27,800 Speaker 4: produce for them. So it's it's a sketch, it's an idea, 881 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:32,240 Speaker 4: and it's closer to a plan than the Israeli government 882 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,400 Speaker 4: has put out so far, which is previously has been 883 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 4: zero plan, just going to continue this until American tells 884 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 4: them to stop. But it has so many you know, 885 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 4: gaping holes in it that the only way you could 886 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 4: see it be successful is with a you know, massive 887 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:57,320 Speaker 4: scale depopulation of the of the area, which obviously is 888 00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 4: the vision, but whether or not they can achieve that 889 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 4: remains to be seen. 890 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 3: Why don't you tell us now about this uh no 891 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 3: other Land situation? 892 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:08,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, my god, yeah, put this, put this next element 893 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 4: up and and this news came out within you know, 894 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 4: it felt like an hour or two? Was that within 895 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 4: hours of a learning that our our drops dropsie colleague 896 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 4: and m kills So Hamden Ballal, the co director of 897 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 4: No Other Land, as reported by Yuvale Abraham, his his 898 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 4: co director was lynched by a group of settlers. Now 899 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 4: it appears that they did not kill him, beat him, 900 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 4: beat him ruthlessly. He was able to get into an ambulance. 901 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,840 Speaker 4: The IDF then or some security force has stopped the 902 00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 4: ambulance and dragged him out and took him to detention. 903 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 4: And as often happens, the victim of this attack becomes 904 00:43:55,719 --> 00:44:01,320 Speaker 4: the one that then literally gets interrogated and charged with 905 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 4: something related to the attack. 906 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 3: So can we put the image of him up on 907 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,800 Speaker 3: the screen just identify for people who aren't familiar with 908 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 3: the god. 909 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 4: So that's you've you've all on the far right, and 910 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,759 Speaker 4: that's uh, that's Hamden there to his to his left, 911 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 4: there bald bald headed gentleman. 912 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 8: There he was. 913 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 3: This is in the United States of America.

One of those templates specifically tells them 1085 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 3: to mention Trump's diet coke habit. This was done to 1086 00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:44,439 Speaker 3: invoke an emotional response from loyal Trump supporters, making them 1087 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,840 Speaker 3: feel as if banning soda from snap snap is the 1088 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 3: food stamps program would be anti Trump. This is an 1089 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:55,000 Speaker 3: incredibly dirty tactic meant to manipulate loyal followers. And you 1090 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 3: can actually see there's these soda bands and government over regulation, 1091 00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:00,720 Speaker 3: and it says up at the top the campaign highlights 1092 00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 3: the dangers of government overregulation. The narrative emphasizes how such 1093 00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:09,680 Speaker 3: regulation is an overreach that unfairly targets consumer choice, key 1094 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:13,880 Speaker 3: resources Trump with diet Coke image, and he goes on 1095 00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 3: to say that these influencers were texted by Influenceable telling 1096 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:21,760 Speaker 3: them to help push back against government overreach and told 1097 00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,719 Speaker 3: that they would be paid between several hundred and even 1098 00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 3: one thousand dollars for each post, attempting to turn MAGA 1099 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 3: folks against RFK Junior and Maha. 1100 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 1: Now again, whatever you think. 1101 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 3: About this whole soda thing, you might even agree, right, 1102 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 3: I suspect that you do agree. I don't fear that 1103 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:47,760 Speaker 3: you're getting paid a thousand rucks by the big soda 1104 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,440 Speaker 3: lobby to say what you think. And you would think, 1105 00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 3: you know, maybe I'm naive. I've never been paid to 1106 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:55,960 Speaker 3: post literally anything in my entire life, and so, you know, 1107 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,359 Speaker 3: I just thought that we all just post what we're thinking, 1108 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:00,160 Speaker 3: you know, and then we all make our money in 1109 00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 3: the way that we do our job. 1110 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 1: But for some people, this is their job, you know. 1111 00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,280 Speaker 3: I just thought that, at least in politics, again naively, 1112 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:08,879 Speaker 3: you usually do it by building up an audience, telling 1113 00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:12,160 Speaker 3: people what you think, criticize whatever you know. But it's 1114 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:14,800 Speaker 3: not like fashion. It makes sense that a fashion influencer 1115 00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:18,320 Speaker 3: will be paid by fashion companies, but here you're literally 1116 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:23,239 Speaker 3: watching under the table deals to post political opinions and advocacy, 1117 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 3: specifically for the purpose of trying to shape government regulation. 1118 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:29,800 Speaker 3: So it actually tells us a lot both about the 1119 00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:31,880 Speaker 3: right wing ecosystem where so many of these people are 1120 00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:34,880 Speaker 3: genuinely for sale. Also a thousand bucks what will come on? 1121 00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 1: You know you guys make that. 1122 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it goes a long way in Malaysia, not for 1123 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,160 Speaker 3: the rest. It's like, really, you're not making money elsewhere. 1124 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:44,440 Speaker 3: I know all of your people, I know how you're 1125 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,200 Speaker 3: making money. You making money, You're doing speaking fees and 1126 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:48,360 Speaker 3: all this other stuff. So I guess this fits into that. 1127 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:49,960 Speaker 3: But it's like, is it really worth it, you know, 1128 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,879 Speaker 3: being outed as a joke like this, because why should 1129 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:54,799 Speaker 3: anybody ever trust any of you ever? 1130 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 4: Again? 1131 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 3: And now you know, you just can't help but notice 1132 00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:01,759 Speaker 3: and continue about how many of these campaigns are so 1133 00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 3: obviously organized behind the scenes. Maybe whenever it applies to 1134 00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 3: a foreign country, you know, I might be noticing some 1135 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 3: of that as well. Very interesting. Everybody always seems to 1136 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 3: be on script. Sometimes the script is real and they 1137 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 3: actually believe it. But it's pretty it's just obvious in 1138 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:19,439 Speaker 3: this case, and again allegedly for some of those people 1139 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 3: hasn't been confirmed, but they haven't denied it either, that 1140 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:25,600 Speaker 3: they're being paid to do this. The policy implications of 1141 00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 3: it are actually important because there it is an ongoing 1142 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 3: fight within the MAHA movement to try and remove unhealthy 1143 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:38,680 Speaker 3: food and soda from the food stamp program. And again, 1144 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:41,279 Speaker 3: we can have a big political fight about it if 1145 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:43,320 Speaker 3: we want to, but we should at least have some 1146 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,200 Speaker 3: good faith. I would think online that these people aren't 1147 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,840 Speaker 3: getting paid to post their opinions, and they obviously are. 1148 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 6: So. 1149 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 3: Anyway, if you saw any of those accounts, you should 1150 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:53,080 Speaker 3: asking questions, ask them some questions. 1151 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:56,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, right, which other of your opinions? 1152 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 8: Yeah? 1153 00:55:57,160 --> 00:55:59,160 Speaker 4: Which other ones you've been have paid for it? Right? 1154 00:55:59,200 --> 00:55:59,640 Speaker 9: That this is? 1155 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:01,759 Speaker 1: Do you believe this is really? 1156 00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:02,080 Speaker 8: Literally? 1157 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 4: And then there's going to be a troll farm underneath 1158 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 4: all of these paid for by the Soto lobby that 1159 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 4: will be like Ian is so right, it's based? 1160 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:10,839 Speaker 6: Yes? 1161 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:14,600 Speaker 4: Great? Great? Take Yeah. On the On the policy itself, 1162 00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 4: I have an unpopular opinion on this probably you know, 1163 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:21,520 Speaker 4: I grew up on food stamps and I hate any 1164 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:24,960 Speaker 4: nanny state humiliation of the poor. I just I say 1165 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 4: I want poor people to be treated like human beings 1166 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,240 Speaker 4: like everybody else, and that if other people are allowed 1167 00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:32,880 Speaker 4: to buy terrible things, they should be able to buy 1168 00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:35,280 Speaker 4: terrible things. Now, I would say, let's. 1169 00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:36,800 Speaker 3: Start with I mean, you can buy terrible things with 1170 00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:38,360 Speaker 3: your own mind. You could buy anything you want with 1171 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:38,799 Speaker 3: your own. 1172 00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:41,239 Speaker 4: Mind, I know, because America just cares so deeply about 1173 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 4: the poor. 1174 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 3: Okay, but but this is separate argument, right, which is 1175 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,840 Speaker 3: we can care more about the poor, which. 1176 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 4: It's just about. Well, yeah, the then increase the snap benefit, 1177 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 4: you know, help help actually help people out. I don't know. 1178 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:55,840 Speaker 1: I feel very torn about it. 1179 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:58,440 Speaker 3: The food system is obviously the number one culprit here 1180 00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:00,120 Speaker 3: that the people who designed all of this in the 1181 00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:01,560 Speaker 3: first place to make it so. 1182 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 4: Stop the subsidies of the sugar industry, right, well, why 1183 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:04,880 Speaker 4: do we you both right? 1184 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:06,439 Speaker 1: And that's what I would say, would say, Okay, we'll 1185 00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 1: send the subsidies. 1186 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,000 Speaker 3: Let's make it so that the soda programs and others 1187 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 3: aren't even available in what high schools and others. I 1188 00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:14,719 Speaker 3: remember reading about the word to keep soda in high school. 1189 00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 3: It's the craziest thing I've ever seen. 1190 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:19,680 Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, that's completely insane, right. I think if you 1191 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:23,880 Speaker 4: want to use government policy to make America healthy, do 1192 00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 4: it for everybody. Yeah, I agree with that. And so 1193 00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:29,720 Speaker 4: then tax, you know, put a tax on sugar stuff 1194 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,880 Speaker 4: and take this literally, because Florida is so important to 1195 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 4: our politics, sugar gets massive amounts of subsidies. And it's 1196 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 4: not just because Florida is important. It's also because the 1197 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 4: sugar lobby then uses the money and buides off politicians. 1198 00:57:44,600 --> 00:57:47,680 Speaker 4: Just just literally get rid of the subsidy and make 1199 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,760 Speaker 4: sugar compete, Like why do we like you? Flip the 1200 00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:55,680 Speaker 4: box over and look at added sugars. It's like, really, cheese, 1201 00:57:55,720 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 4: its needs added sugars. Like cheese, its will be fine 1202 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 4: without the added sugars. Good luck. Go through the grocery 1203 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,440 Speaker 4: store and try to find something that doesn't have added sugars, 1204 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 4: like whole wheat bread. Flip the whole wheatbread over. It's 1205 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,560 Speaker 4: like added sugars, Like, oh my god, why are you 1206 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 4: adding sugar to wheat bread? 1207 00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 3: It is Look it's have I could cause your subsidized 1208 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 3: to do it. It's it's not just upsy though. This 1209 00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 3: is where it's on the consumer as. 1210 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:24,000 Speaker 4: Well, and I don't think you consumer's on. They go 1211 00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 4: into a lab and they figure out what makes your 1212 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 4: brain go big, Yes and no. 1213 00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:29,160 Speaker 3: But I mean the thing is is that if you 1214 00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,440 Speaker 3: just look at the amount of processed food that we 1215 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 3: consume now, it is just exponential compared to the past. 1216 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:35,960 Speaker 1: In fact, I think that's the right. 1217 00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:38,360 Speaker 3: But that's not because that's not because consumers led a 1218 00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 3: movement and we're like, well, that is more processed food. 1219 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,000 Speaker 3: We're responding a bit to consumer choice. Like the truth is, 1220 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:45,480 Speaker 3: you can eat healthy if you want to, you just 1221 00:58:45,560 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 3: have need time. And the people think what people don't 1222 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:50,920 Speaker 3: have is time. And it's very cook Cooking is a 1223 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 3: pain in the ass. 1224 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 1: You can do it, you know. 1225 00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:54,440 Speaker 3: It's actually quite cheap if you want to. But the 1226 00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:56,440 Speaker 3: point the problem is that it takes a lot of 1227 00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:59,160 Speaker 3: the slow people are busy the crockpot. Yeah, you can 1228 00:58:59,200 --> 00:58:59,920 Speaker 3: crock pot it up. 1229 00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 4: It's not that hard. 1230 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:04,840 Speaker 3: But again it's about intention and brain space, which most 1231 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:07,360 Speaker 3: people are busy and they don't have the time, or 1232 00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:09,800 Speaker 3: you have two parent households who are working. I don't 1233 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:12,120 Speaker 3: blame anybody out there if you put something in the microwave, 1234 00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:14,200 Speaker 3: and even working for twelve hours a day. And let's 1235 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 3: say your husband's on a night shift and you're on 1236 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,960 Speaker 3: the day shift and you're the sole caregiver. Listen, I'm here, 1237 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:21,360 Speaker 3: I'm here for you. I'm with you. I'm not going 1238 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:24,160 Speaker 3: to lecture you and tell you, oh, it's so easier whatever. 1239 00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:27,240 Speaker 3: I totally agree we should design the system to change 1240 00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:28,240 Speaker 3: things a little bit. 1241 00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:34,840 Speaker 4: Snap should cover diapers, it should cover medicine, like SNAP 1242 00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:37,680 Speaker 4: should be Snap should be able to cover things that 1243 00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:39,800 Speaker 4: you really need. Are they not other programs? 1244 00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:40,440 Speaker 10: Well? 1245 00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:40,840 Speaker 1: Diapers? 1246 00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:43,560 Speaker 4: I know that's a big one about silent all. Like 1247 00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:45,680 Speaker 4: your kid's got one hundred and four fever and they 1248 00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,240 Speaker 4: want fifteen dollars for this bottle of tile and all 1249 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:51,400 Speaker 4: that they keep behind the lock and key, and you 1250 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 4: can't use your benefits for it. What good is being 1251 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:55,800 Speaker 4: able to but you can use soda. See that's where 1252 00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:56,360 Speaker 4: That's where I am. 1253 00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 3: Like the things that are included in that are very 1254 00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:04,120 Speaker 3: obviously part of very obviously included as part of a 1255 01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:07,479 Speaker 3: lobbying campaign that has been very successful over the last 1256 01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:08,360 Speaker 3: several years. 1257 01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:10,920 Speaker 4: So we'll return to the story. Like air, there's like 1258 01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:13,400 Speaker 4: a hot food thing. You can't get hot food, but 1259 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:16,080 Speaker 4: I thought you could. There's a loophole where I've seen 1260 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:19,080 Speaker 4: him in seven to eleven before. Well, there's various loopholes 1261 01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:21,040 Speaker 4: where if you can buy it cold but then it's heated. 1262 01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:21,920 Speaker 1: Oh that's right, that's right. 1263 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:23,280 Speaker 4: So like this, I used to be able to get 1264 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:26,440 Speaker 4: shrimp because you'd get the shrimp cold. Yeah, but then 1265 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:27,960 Speaker 4: they'll steam it for you. Yes, that's right. 1266 01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 1: Publics will do that. I think people always say, so 1267 01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 1: that was a great public that would be covered. 1268 01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:35,280 Speaker 4: But if it's already steamed, forget it. It's not for 1269 01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:35,800 Speaker 4: you for it. 1270 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 3: Let's get over to twenty three and me. I definitely 1271 01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 3: wanted to include the story in here. This has touched 1272 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 3: a nerve everywhere. So twenty three and Me. The company 1273 01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:50,480 Speaker 3: obviously very famous. It popularized the whole DNA testing thing 1274 01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:53,400 Speaker 3: to see your heritage. People found lost relatives, and there 1275 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,919 Speaker 3: were great stories ancestry dot com. Well, now we're seeing 1276 01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:00,760 Speaker 3: the downside of some decades long voluntarily millions of people 1277 01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:04,440 Speaker 3: just giving DNA samples to private companies. Private companies have 1278 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:06,480 Speaker 3: the ability to just sell it off if they want. 1279 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:09,000 Speaker 3: They don't necessarily keep your data all that secure. They 1280 01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:11,080 Speaker 3: claim that you can have your data deleted? Is it 1281 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:14,400 Speaker 3: really deleted? Well, now the company is going into bankruptcy, 1282 01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 3: and its bankruptcy means that its assets. The only valuable 1283 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:20,480 Speaker 3: thing on its balance sheet is what your DNA. If 1284 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:23,560 Speaker 3: you submitted your DNA there our own James Lee did 1285 01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:25,000 Speaker 3: a video about it. Let's take a listen. 1286 01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:28,160 Speaker 6: Heads up, if you've ever given your DNA to twenty 1287 01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 6: three and meters, you should probably go and delete that 1288 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:33,680 Speaker 6: right now. This morning it was announced that twenty three 1289 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 6: and meter filed for bankruptcy and that it's CEO and 1290 01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:39,400 Speaker 6: with Jeki was resigning. Twenty three and me is, of 1291 01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:42,080 Speaker 6: course the DNA testing company. They said that this morning. 1292 01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 6: Twenty three and me shares dropped more than fifty percent 1293 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 6: in early trading after the company filed for bankruptcy late Sunday, 1294 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:51,840 Speaker 6: blah blah blah, shareholder value whatever. Here is what's actually alarming. 1295 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 6: Quote twenty three and Me's global database has grown into 1296 01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:59,200 Speaker 6: a virtually unprecedented repository of human genetic information that can 1297 01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 6: now be sold in bankruptcy proceedings. 1298 01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:02,440 Speaker 4: That's right. 1299 01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:04,840 Speaker 6: The privacy statement of twenty three and meters says that, 1300 01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:08,959 Speaker 6: quote if they are involved in a bankruptcy merger acquisition, reorganization, 1301 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:12,880 Speaker 6: or sale of assets. Your personal information may be access, sold, 1302 01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:15,760 Speaker 6: or transferred as part of that transaction. So what does 1303 01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:18,360 Speaker 6: that mean, Well, it means that the DNA that you've 1304 01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:22,080 Speaker 6: given them could be scooped up by whoever and used 1305 01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 6: in all sorts of crazy ways, things like maybe cloning 1306 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:28,000 Speaker 6: you without your permission. Your DNA could be sold to 1307 01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:31,120 Speaker 6: malicious actors who could then use that DNA and leave 1308 01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:34,600 Speaker 6: it at crime scenes that you were never at. Of course, 1309 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:38,400 Speaker 6: bioweapons is always a possibility. I mean, okay, those are 1310 01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:42,680 Speaker 6: admittedly kind of crazy examples. Maybe they won't happen, But 1311 01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 6: then there are those mundane use cases that probably will happen, 1312 01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:50,680 Speaker 6: one of which is insurance companies using that DNA data 1313 01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 6: to deny you coverage, which is something they'd definitely love 1314 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 6: to do. So if you don't want that, here are 1315 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,560 Speaker 6: the instructions on how you could delete your data from 1316 01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:00,440 Speaker 6: twenty three and meters past time read. 1317 01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:04,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, so, actually, yesterday after the news broke, the d 1318 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:08,440 Speaker 3: twenty three meters website was experiencing problems because so many 1319 01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:11,320 Speaker 3: people were trying to delete their data. But you know, 1320 01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:13,560 Speaker 3: that's a drop in the bucket if we're being real 1321 01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:17,200 Speaker 3: of the fifteen million DNA samples that they have. Regulators 1322 01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:19,800 Speaker 3: are starting to take notice. The government of California, let's 1323 01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 3: put this up there. The Attorney General is now urgently 1324 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:26,600 Speaker 3: issuing a consumer alert for twenty three and meters customers, 1325 01:03:26,960 --> 01:03:30,280 Speaker 3: asking them to take down their genetic data. One point 1326 01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:32,480 Speaker 3: somebody made to me Ryan is that this is actually 1327 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:36,680 Speaker 3: really scary because the worst this is the most mundane 1328 01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:40,440 Speaker 3: but dystopian use case. Let's say you're a healthcare company 1329 01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:45,920 Speaker 3: and you want to decide whether to ensure somebody or not, 1330 01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:48,080 Speaker 3: or how to adjust their premiums. 1331 01:03:48,360 --> 01:03:49,640 Speaker 1: What would you do me? 1332 01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:54,880 Speaker 3: I would buy let's say, genetic repository of fifteen million people, 1333 01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:58,680 Speaker 3: and then I would cross reference your name with any 1334 01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:01,960 Speaker 3: of the samples of your relatives and see what you 1335 01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:06,280 Speaker 3: are genetically predisposed to pre diabetic. Oh, let's add five 1336 01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:08,680 Speaker 3: more dollars a month to your premium. You won't even 1337 01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:10,800 Speaker 3: notice it. You'll just think that that's your quote. You 1338 01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:15,280 Speaker 3: also have something called an LM, which would easily be 1339 01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:19,320 Speaker 3: able to use AI and others to scrub those and 1340 01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:22,520 Speaker 3: flag let's say the top ten percent of the most 1341 01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:27,320 Speaker 3: unsurable people and then do everything you can bureaucratically to 1342 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:30,200 Speaker 3: make sure that those people never become a customer of 1343 01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:33,280 Speaker 3: yours and give them a sky high premium whenever they apply, 1344 01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:36,160 Speaker 3: or let's say, deny them coverage here or there, and 1345 01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:38,960 Speaker 3: you can move things in a direction. And you know, 1346 01:04:39,360 --> 01:04:42,919 Speaker 3: if you're let's say United Health Group or Blue Cloth 1347 01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:44,800 Speaker 3: Cross or any of these other people, you have market 1348 01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 3: caps in the hundreds of billions. This isn't going to 1349 01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:49,760 Speaker 3: cost anything to be able to buy this, and the 1350 01:04:49,920 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 3: potential savings for you in the future sky. 1351 01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:57,960 Speaker 4: High, rare. Moment to be a tiny bit grateful to Obamacare, 1352 01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:01,920 Speaker 4: which really because before Obamacare there was no ceiling on 1353 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:05,120 Speaker 4: what you could charge for somebody with a pre existing condition, 1354 01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:07,920 Speaker 4: and in fact, if you were a cancer survivor, you 1355 01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:11,920 Speaker 4: could be straight up told no, we're actually not going 1356 01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:16,320 Speaker 4: to ensure you. Obamacare said you can. You basically have 1357 01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:20,800 Speaker 4: to keep it within this range and you can't move 1358 01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:23,600 Speaker 4: it much. And so, but what they will do is 1359 01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:25,800 Speaker 4: they would use this data and move the people that 1360 01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:28,600 Speaker 4: they can all the way up up to hear he'd 1361 01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:30,440 Speaker 4: be like, oh gee, why how'd that happened? And you 1362 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:32,320 Speaker 4: don't even know because it wasn't even your DNA that 1363 01:05:32,360 --> 01:05:33,680 Speaker 4: got tested somebody else's. 1364 01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:36,040 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, the craziest thing. 1365 01:05:36,240 --> 01:05:38,440 Speaker 3: And I really have complicated feelings about this one, right, 1366 01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:41,160 Speaker 3: because we all love when the Golden State killer gets caught. 1367 01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:43,640 Speaker 1: Oh that's fantastic. It's like, well, how did they do it? 1368 01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:45,400 Speaker 3: Well, they took his DNA and they uploaded it to 1369 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 3: like ten different websites, and they found his fourth cousin, 1370 01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:50,000 Speaker 3: and they worked his way down from the fourth cousin. 1371 01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:51,160 Speaker 1: Down this tree. 1372 01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:52,920 Speaker 3: And then we figured out this was the only guy 1373 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:53,640 Speaker 3: who could have done it. 1374 01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 4: And you're like, I don't know, man. 1375 01:05:56,160 --> 01:05:57,000 Speaker 1: It's pretty creepy. 1376 01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:57,560 Speaker 4: That's weird. 1377 01:05:58,080 --> 01:05:58,919 Speaker 1: He was just the first. 1378 01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,800 Speaker 3: There's been multiple killer actually, who are rapists who have 1379 01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:06,400 Speaker 3: been caught because by using this DNA database since twenty twenty. 1380 01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:09,400 Speaker 3: They're fascinating stories to read, but they do raise a 1381 01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:13,360 Speaker 3: lot of questions about privacy, et cetera. And here it's 1382 01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 3: a private company. They can do whatever they want with 1383 01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:17,840 Speaker 3: this Ryan. Yes, they have to abide by some regulation. 1384 01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:20,960 Speaker 3: You have regulators who have to approve any said sale. 1385 01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:24,080 Speaker 3: But I mean that healthcare one I just gave. There's 1386 01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:27,520 Speaker 3: nothing technically that violates your privacy about that one, right, 1387 01:06:27,600 --> 01:06:31,120 Speaker 3: it's just that it would be used for super dystopian ends. 1388 01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:33,360 Speaker 3: So it's one of those where look, I never I 1389 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:36,400 Speaker 3: never participated in one of these specifically because I was 1390 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:39,439 Speaker 3: always afraid of things like this, and so I guess 1391 01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:43,120 Speaker 3: if they really will delete your data, it's worth trying, 1392 01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:45,480 Speaker 3: you know, right now, because this is scary stuff. And 1393 01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:48,000 Speaker 3: don't forget that already twenty three and me had been 1394 01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:50,360 Speaker 3: hacked previously. Let's put it up there on the screen. 1395 01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:54,000 Speaker 3: This was just you know, a few years ago. Yeah, 1396 01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:57,480 Speaker 3: February of twenty twenty four, hackers got nearly seven million 1397 01:06:57,520 --> 01:07:00,720 Speaker 3: people's data from twenty three and meters. The firm blamed 1398 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:05,080 Speaker 3: users quote for not securing it enough. This was I 1399 01:07:05,120 --> 01:07:07,200 Speaker 3: believe it was sold on the dark web or others. 1400 01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:09,920 Speaker 3: And there's apparently been allegations that the Chinese government and 1401 01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:13,280 Speaker 3: other large data brokerages have been trying and stealing this 1402 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,600 Speaker 3: stuff now for years and years. So this is just 1403 01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 3: a wake up call really about the entire industry. And 1404 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 3: I hope that everybody pays attention. If you did submit 1405 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 3: your data to one of these, you know, maybe try 1406 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 3: and go and delete it after they've. 1407 01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:27,600 Speaker 1: Given what it is, or alert your relatives. 1408 01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:29,200 Speaker 3: I know, a lot of elderly people were doing People 1409 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:30,720 Speaker 3: were giving it as gifts because they thought it was fun, 1410 01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:32,800 Speaker 3: and I totally get it, you know, for looking back 1411 01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:34,720 Speaker 3: into it. But they're real downside here, you know, in 1412 01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:38,200 Speaker 3: terms of what this could all become, especially in the 1413 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,520 Speaker 3: age of AI. I think it's very scary filming that 1414 01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:42,920 Speaker 3: has been flagged to me by multiple different people, and 1415 01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 3: I have noticed this one hit a nerve. The twenty 1416 01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:48,120 Speaker 3: three and me people are really upset at the idea 1417 01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:51,240 Speaker 3: that their you know, most intimate thing about themselves and 1418 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:54,120 Speaker 3: their bodies, their genetics, their family could be used for 1419 01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:56,840 Speaker 3: such nefarious purposes. They were assured that this was just 1420 01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:00,120 Speaker 3: about ancestry, and now that the company's in bankruptcy, it 1421 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:03,960 Speaker 3: literally they have a fiduciary responsibility to seek the highest. 1422 01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:06,800 Speaker 4: Better I think that we should trust whatever company chairman 1423 01:08:06,920 --> 01:08:09,400 Speaker 4: she sends out to buy this data to use it 1424 01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:12,280 Speaker 4: in a way that is best for the beneficial for mankind, 1425 01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:14,320 Speaker 4: mankind and our collective betterment. 1426 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:16,640 Speaker 3: All right, yeah, movie, right, Ryan, Maybe we should just 1427 01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:20,800 Speaker 3: surrender to our Chinese overlords, which is a good transition to, 1428 01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:24,439 Speaker 3: of course, something that we uh near and dear. Here 1429 01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:26,320 Speaker 3: to the show's heart, which is the state of the 1430 01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:32,320 Speaker 3: electric vehicle market.

Just came out yesterday. 1474 01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:37,479 Speaker 3: The annual sales have now topped one hundred billion dollars 1475 01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:41,760 Speaker 3: as of yesterday. This is the I mean, twenty nine 1476 01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:46,320 Speaker 3: percent increase in overall BYD revenue just from last year. 1477 01:10:46,920 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 4: I can't even think of a car company in the. 1478 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:50,920 Speaker 3: United States because twenty nine percent increase year over year 1479 01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:55,439 Speaker 3: in its sales domination one hundred billion dollar level, huge 1480 01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:59,720 Speaker 3: percentage of those compared to last year actually being exported 1481 01:10:59,880 --> 01:11:03,599 Speaker 3: across the world, it says, quote, Unlike it's US rival Tesla, 1482 01:11:03,680 --> 01:11:06,800 Speaker 3: which sells only fully electric vehicles and reported revenue of 1483 01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:09,800 Speaker 3: ninety eight billion, China has benefited from the resurgent demand 1484 01:11:09,880 --> 01:11:13,760 Speaker 3: in China for hybrid vehicles. This is BYD specifically, And 1485 01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:16,200 Speaker 3: I actually thought, that's the most interesting thing that I've 1486 01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 3: learned about all of this is their plug in hybrid 1487 01:11:19,240 --> 01:11:22,160 Speaker 3: market is just so fundamentally different than ours. 1488 01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:22,920 Speaker 1: I looked into it. 1489 01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:25,040 Speaker 3: The farthest range of probaug in hybrid you can get 1490 01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:27,120 Speaker 3: in the United States, it's something like four hundred or 1491 01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:32,000 Speaker 3: so miles. We're talking here about cars that have thirteen hundred. 1492 01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:34,240 Speaker 3: Put the next one up there, just to show people 1493 01:11:34,720 --> 01:11:38,040 Speaker 3: plug in hybrid with thirteen hundred miles of total range, 1494 01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:38,879 Speaker 3: and we're talking. 1495 01:11:38,720 --> 01:11:41,920 Speaker 4: This is like a sedan right now. Look at all 1496 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:43,759 Speaker 4: the Alexis that can get six or seven hundred. 1497 01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:45,040 Speaker 1: Now, oh, is there I didn't. 1498 01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:45,280 Speaker 4: I don't. 1499 01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:46,800 Speaker 3: That may not have been available in the US though, 1500 01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:49,479 Speaker 3: from what I looked at a car and driver or whatever. 1501 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:52,200 Speaker 3: And you know, Toyota RAB for prime is good at 1502 01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:55,559 Speaker 3: get It's got a forty mile electric battery. It's like, okay, cool, 1503 01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:58,439 Speaker 3: these guys have three hundred electric mile battery plus a 1504 01:11:58,479 --> 01:11:59,920 Speaker 3: eight hundred miles take a gas. 1505 01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:02,840 Speaker 4: That's incredible. It means like you don't have to stop. 1506 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:03,559 Speaker 1: It's awesome. 1507 01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:07,479 Speaker 3: The point, first of all, put the caveats from a 1508 01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:09,559 Speaker 3: lot of the America firsters, like, oh, they're lying about 1509 01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:12,360 Speaker 3: their range. EPA range very different than the Chinese range. 1510 01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:13,920 Speaker 3: You have to chop thirty five percent. I'm like, okay, 1511 01:12:13,960 --> 01:12:15,880 Speaker 3: I'll chop thirty five percent off. It's still double then 1512 01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:19,000 Speaker 3: whatever we get over here. It is just obvious now 1513 01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:22,280 Speaker 3: every serious industrial person, I speak to, every serious cars person, 1514 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:24,880 Speaker 3: I speak to every serious car reviewer, and all that. 1515 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:26,960 Speaker 1: If you are interested at all in. 1516 01:12:27,040 --> 01:12:29,479 Speaker 3: Electric vehicles, the Chinese are kicking our ass. There's just 1517 01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:32,040 Speaker 3: no question about it. And their ability to have sales 1518 01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:35,479 Speaker 3: and export all across the global market is disrupting a 1519 01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:38,920 Speaker 3: core part of American industry, and we just have no 1520 01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:44,040 Speaker 3: capability yet for catch up, no plan, nothing, It just 1521 01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:48,000 Speaker 3: directly shows the difference in our two economic models. My 1522 01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:50,679 Speaker 3: friend Joe Weisenthal has a great statistic, so I actually 1523 01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:52,200 Speaker 3: want to read it to all of you. 1524 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:55,280 Speaker 4: It is let's see here, here we go. 1525 01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:57,200 Speaker 3: One of the most important facts about the world is 1526 01:12:57,240 --> 01:12:59,400 Speaker 3: that in the last fifteen years, China has become the 1527 01:12:59,439 --> 01:13:01,800 Speaker 3: global manufacturing powerhouse. 1528 01:13:01,360 --> 01:13:02,879 Speaker 4: At the cutting edge of multiple industries. 1529 01:13:03,120 --> 01:13:06,400 Speaker 3: But the Shanghai Composite stock index is scarcely above where 1530 01:13:06,439 --> 01:13:07,559 Speaker 3: it was in two thousand and nine. 1531 01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:10,280 Speaker 4: So our stocks are way up. But is our material 1532 01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:13,240 Speaker 4: life all that better? You should ask that question for yourself. 1533 01:13:13,400 --> 01:13:14,960 Speaker 4: Our meme stocks are way up. 1534 01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:16,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, Armies, Yeah, that's right. 1535 01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:17,760 Speaker 4: Let's look at how we got here. 1536 01:13:17,880 --> 01:13:18,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1537 01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:21,760 Speaker 4: In the nineteen sixties, LBJ gave a speech about climate change. 1538 01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:26,680 Speaker 4: In the nineteen seventies, Jimmy Carter put solar panels on 1539 01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:31,680 Speaker 4: the roof of the White House, though Reagan took them 1540 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:36,639 Speaker 4: off amid a massive disinformation and lobbying campaign from big 1541 01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:41,040 Speaker 4: oil and big Auto, and they and big oil and 1542 01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:44,479 Speaker 4: big Auto spent the next three decades saying, at first 1543 01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:46,960 Speaker 4: there was no climate change, and also what we need 1544 01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:52,840 Speaker 4: to do is block the EPA from even raising mileage standards, 1545 01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:55,320 Speaker 4: so like for a while in the nineties you started 1546 01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 4: to actually see mileage standards go up, so we weren't 1547 01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:01,479 Speaker 4: getting electric vehicles, but at least like you were getting 1548 01:14:01,479 --> 01:14:04,599 Speaker 4: a little bit more per gallon. And that was even 1549 01:14:04,640 --> 01:14:07,000 Speaker 4: too much of a threat to the to the oil companies, 1550 01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:10,200 Speaker 4: and so they roll that back and then we do 1551 01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:12,080 Speaker 4: an entire war in the Middle East to make sure 1552 01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:14,640 Speaker 4: we have more oil. Like that is our That was 1553 01:14:14,720 --> 01:14:19,519 Speaker 4: the American strategic approach to this recognition that a transition 1554 01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:23,720 Speaker 4: was coming. China is like, let's build up a manufacturing 1555 01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:28,200 Speaker 4: base using American no how and then build up this 1556 01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:34,320 Speaker 4: a dominant electric vehicle manufacturing capacity. And here we are, 1557 01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:38,840 Speaker 4: like they can now sell these dope cars for like 1558 01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:42,120 Speaker 4: thirteen thousand dollars even with one hundred percent tariff, they 1559 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:43,519 Speaker 4: would be able to sell them here in the US. 1560 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 4: So they're gonna have to like do a two hundred 1561 01:14:45,560 --> 01:14:49,160 Speaker 4: percent or they're market complete. I actually looked into it 1562 01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 4: because I'm curious. By the way, Yeah, let me do 1563 01:14:51,280 --> 01:14:53,599 Speaker 4: this announcement now.

They just put a 1601 01:16:25,680 --> 01:16:28,559 Speaker 4: different date on it and did a different kind of redaction. 1602 01:16:29,040 --> 01:16:31,000 Speaker 8: I had that familiar dismal experience. 1603 01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:35,240 Speaker 11: Fifteen minutes after the sixty thousand pages of material drop, 1604 01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:37,000 Speaker 11: I get a call and somebody say, is there a 1605 01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:40,240 Speaker 11: smoking gun? And I say, well, I'm only reading the 1606 01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:45,040 Speaker 11: third document of the six So yes, after a week, 1607 01:16:45,120 --> 01:16:48,760 Speaker 11: we've had a chance to absorb and figure out what's 1608 01:16:48,840 --> 01:16:49,479 Speaker 11: important here. 1609 01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:52,360 Speaker 8: So there's a couple of things. You know, we need 1610 01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:53,040 Speaker 8: to step back. 1611 01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:55,240 Speaker 11: We're not going to get the answer in the day 1612 01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 11: people want a smoking gun, I say, don't look for 1613 01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:01,080 Speaker 11: a smoking gun, look for a fact pattern. 1614 01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:04,400 Speaker 8: Yes, okay, don't push the string of a theory. 1615 01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:07,000 Speaker 11: Look for a fact pattern, and let the fact pattern 1616 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:11,160 Speaker 11: tell you what's really going on here. And after sixty years, 1617 01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:14,680 Speaker 11: with this very significant disclosure that we got last week, 1618 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,840 Speaker 11: the story of what happened in nineteen sixty three is 1619 01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:22,960 Speaker 11: becoming clearer. Two documents came out that I think are 1620 01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:24,720 Speaker 11: really important, and they kind of set the stage for 1621 01:17:24,800 --> 01:17:26,960 Speaker 11: what we're going to learn and what we have learned. 1622 01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:29,960 Speaker 11: And you know, I want to caution you people, this 1623 01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:33,840 Speaker 11: is a very complicated story. We're talking about covert operations, 1624 01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:38,400 Speaker 11: so they're wrapped in official secrecy, they're wrapped in deceptive statements, 1625 01:17:38,520 --> 01:17:40,840 Speaker 11: and we're only learning about them many years later. But 1626 01:17:41,240 --> 01:17:43,200 Speaker 11: as we learn about them, we do see a new 1627 01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:45,519 Speaker 11: fact pattern. So that's one thing. Okay, what are the 1628 01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:48,000 Speaker 11: important documents? The first, I think is one that really 1629 01:17:48,080 --> 01:17:50,880 Speaker 11: sets the stage. It's a memo that Arthur Schlessinger wrote 1630 01:17:50,880 --> 01:17:51,719 Speaker 11: to President Kennedy. 1631 01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:52,479 Speaker 1: Is the F two. 1632 01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:53,920 Speaker 4: If we can put this out, let's put it up 1633 01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:54,320 Speaker 4: on the screen. 1634 01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:54,800 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1635 01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:57,640 Speaker 11: The whole page of this document had been secret for 1636 01:17:57,760 --> 01:18:00,800 Speaker 11: sixty two years on you can see that on the 1637 01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:03,439 Speaker 11: left and on the right it was what we got 1638 01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:06,479 Speaker 11: last week. And this is a very significant chapter because 1639 01:18:06,960 --> 01:18:10,719 Speaker 11: what's this memo? Kennedy is furious after the Bay of Pigs. 1640 01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:13,280 Speaker 11: He felt that the CIA was trying to impose their 1641 01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:16,920 Speaker 11: foreign policy on him, and he said, how could I 1642 01:18:16,960 --> 01:18:19,800 Speaker 11: have been so dumb? And he raised there's a quote 1643 01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:21,559 Speaker 11: that you'll see all the time. I want to split 1644 01:18:21,640 --> 01:18:24,240 Speaker 11: the CIA into a thousand pieces and scattered to the winds. 1645 01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:26,640 Speaker 11: He said that to a New York Times reporter who 1646 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:30,160 Speaker 11: reported it later. But when Kennedy calmed down, he said, well, 1647 01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:32,640 Speaker 11: you know what can I do? And Arthur's Lessons or 1648 01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:34,439 Speaker 11: a liberal advisor, said well, what you could do is 1649 01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:37,200 Speaker 11: you could reorganize the CIA, and he writes a long 1650 01:18:37,280 --> 01:18:39,679 Speaker 11: memo's if you want to do that, mister president, here's 1651 01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:41,600 Speaker 11: how you do it, and here's why you do it. 1652 01:18:42,120 --> 01:18:45,639 Speaker 11: And this page that was kept secret for sixty years 1653 01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:48,960 Speaker 11: really tells the why of what Kennedy wanted to do. Now, 1654 01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:52,240 Speaker 11: ultimately Kenny didn't do it right. It's a big job 1655 01:18:52,280 --> 01:18:55,080 Speaker 11: to reorganize the CIA. He had other priorities. He decided 1656 01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:57,120 Speaker 11: not to do it. But this is an insight into 1657 01:18:57,200 --> 01:18:59,880 Speaker 11: his thinking, and it's an insight into his thinking that 1658 01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:03,080 Speaker 11: the CIA didn't want anybody to know what that Why? 1659 01:19:03,240 --> 01:19:03,640 Speaker 6: What is it? 1660 01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:05,120 Speaker 4: What does it tell us? 1661 01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:06,840 Speaker 8: It tells us a bunch of things. 1662 01:19:07,240 --> 01:19:10,559 Speaker 11: What Cezenger is talking about in this passage is what's 1663 01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:14,680 Speaker 11: called controlled American sources. These are American sources that are 1664 01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:18,320 Speaker 11: we totally control CIA officers who work for the US 1665 01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:22,640 Speaker 11: government in official cover positions. And Selessenger says, you know, 1666 01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:26,759 Speaker 11: the CIA is encroaching on your foreign policy. And he says, 1667 01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:30,600 Speaker 11: at the time of year inauguration, forty seven percent of 1668 01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:34,920 Speaker 11: the State Department political officers around the world were in 1669 01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:38,960 Speaker 11: fact CIA office forty seven percent. We knew a lot 1670 01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:42,840 Speaker 11: of CIA officers took those cover positions, we didn't know 1671 01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:45,719 Speaker 11: half of they had half of them. That's in nineteen sixty, 1672 01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:48,759 Speaker 11: I mean, and it made me wonder, what's that figure today? 1673 01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:52,040 Speaker 8: And you know what Deep States probably just you know, 1674 01:19:53,600 --> 01:19:57,360 Speaker 8: it's a classified secret. So this is very sensitive stuff. 1675 01:19:58,400 --> 01:20:00,439 Speaker 11: One hundred and twenty three people were working in the 1676 01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:04,400 Speaker 11: Paris embassy were with the CIA, and in there Flessenger 1677 01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:09,000 Speaker 11: tells a very telling anecdote in nineteen sixty one, there 1678 01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:12,120 Speaker 11: was an attempted coup against French President Charles de Gaul. 1679 01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:15,760 Speaker 8: He was trying to pull out of Algeria. Algeria was 1680 01:20:15,840 --> 01:20:17,799 Speaker 8: kind of like Vietnam for America. 1681 01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:22,080 Speaker 11: It was like this intractable foreign involvement and just ultimately 1682 01:20:22,120 --> 01:20:24,840 Speaker 11: we just had to get out. But very divisive at home, 1683 01:20:25,160 --> 01:20:27,280 Speaker 11: and so divisive in fact, that the right wing in 1684 01:20:27,439 --> 01:20:30,760 Speaker 11: the French government went after de Gaul and they were 1685 01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:31,680 Speaker 11: going to overthrow him. 1686 01:20:31,720 --> 01:20:33,439 Speaker 8: And the story was that it was known that. 1687 01:20:33,520 --> 01:20:36,240 Speaker 11: The CIA station in Paris was on the top floor 1688 01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:39,000 Speaker 11: of the US embassy, and the story was the lights 1689 01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:41,960 Speaker 11: in the embassy were on all night on the night 1690 01:20:42,040 --> 01:20:45,280 Speaker 11: of the of the coup, and de Gaull always thought 1691 01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:48,679 Speaker 11: that the CIA was behind that coup. A year later, 1692 01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:52,080 Speaker 11: when a group of assassins from the same right wing 1693 01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:55,920 Speaker 11: faction try and ambush to Gaull on it when he's 1694 01:20:55,960 --> 01:20:59,920 Speaker 11: going to his country house and almost succeed. 1695 01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:02,280 Speaker 8: Unlike Kennedy, Degall. 1696 01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:04,639 Speaker 11: Had a very good driver and when the shots rang out, 1697 01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:07,160 Speaker 11: he did exactly the right thing and evaded the gunfire 1698 01:21:07,720 --> 01:21:10,879 Speaker 11: and de Gaull escaped. But de Gall thought the CIA 1699 01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:14,400 Speaker 11: knew about that attempt on his life and Degall never 1700 01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:18,560 Speaker 11: believed the official story of the assassination. So that story, this, 1701 01:21:18,920 --> 01:21:22,840 Speaker 11: this memo, that page is the origin story of the 1702 01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:27,160 Speaker 11: mistrust between the CIA, between Kennedy and the CIA that 1703 01:21:27,240 --> 01:21:29,240 Speaker 11: would endure for the rest of his presidency. 1704 01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:29,599 Speaker 9: Right. 1705 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:31,840 Speaker 1: I think it's so important for you to lay that 1706 01:21:32,040 --> 01:21:32,479 Speaker 1: out in. 1707 01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:34,720 Speaker 4: The suspicion that the CIA might assassinate it. 1708 01:21:36,200 --> 01:21:40,000 Speaker 1: So what is the decision tree that flows from this memo? 1709 01:21:40,360 --> 01:21:43,840 Speaker 3: How do we then get to characters like Angleton and Okay, 1710 01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:47,200 Speaker 3: the organization of an eventual alleged plot. 1711 01:21:47,920 --> 01:21:51,160 Speaker 11: Right, So the second most important document that came out 1712 01:21:51,200 --> 01:21:53,960 Speaker 11: it's not it's actually not one document. It was nine 1713 01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:59,120 Speaker 11: documents about four about nine documents about about James Angleton. 1714 01:21:59,240 --> 01:22:01,760 Speaker 11: And you know, so I don't go looking for one 1715 01:22:01,880 --> 01:22:03,519 Speaker 11: document that's going to tell me the whole thing. When 1716 01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:06,920 Speaker 11: you look at these documents taken together you and documents 1717 01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:09,679 Speaker 11: that have been released in recent years, you understand something 1718 01:22:09,720 --> 01:22:11,920 Speaker 11: that I just don't think people. I mean, I know, 1719 01:22:12,200 --> 01:22:15,400 Speaker 11: no one knows, and the mainstream media organizations just don't 1720 01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:18,320 Speaker 11: want to talk about it. Okay, Lee, Harvey Oswald was 1721 01:22:18,400 --> 01:22:22,240 Speaker 11: not a loan nut. He was a known quantity to 1722 01:22:22,360 --> 01:22:25,880 Speaker 11: a small group of CIA counter intelligence officers for four 1723 01:22:26,080 --> 01:22:30,000 Speaker 11: years between nineteen fifty November nineteen fifty nine November nineteen 1724 01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:33,560 Speaker 11: sixty three. We now have all of the information that 1725 01:22:33,640 --> 01:22:36,960 Speaker 11: the CIA had on Oswald's forty two documents, one hundred 1726 01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:38,360 Speaker 11: and eighty pages of material. 1727 01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:43,320 Speaker 8: And you know he was followed from beginning to end. 1728 01:22:43,600 --> 01:22:46,240 Speaker 11: There was no point in those four years, or very 1729 01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:48,960 Speaker 11: few points in those four years where top people in 1730 01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:52,400 Speaker 11: the CIA did not have Lee Harvey Oswald's home address. 1731 01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:55,880 Speaker 8: Wow, between November nineteen fifteen, and the guy's moving all 1732 01:22:55,960 --> 01:22:56,280 Speaker 8: the time. 1733 01:22:56,840 --> 01:22:58,760 Speaker 11: He goes to Moscow, to Minsk, he comes back to 1734 01:22:58,760 --> 01:23:00,840 Speaker 11: the Fort Worth, he moves to Orleans, he comes back 1735 01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:03,040 Speaker 11: to Dallas, he goes to Mexico, he comes back to Dallas. 1736 01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:05,839 Speaker 11: Every step of the way, top people in the CIA 1737 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:09,479 Speaker 11: knew about it. So that alone is you know, that's 1738 01:23:09,520 --> 01:23:11,240 Speaker 11: another thing that sets the context. 1739 01:23:11,360 --> 01:23:11,479 Speaker 8: Now. 1740 01:23:12,080 --> 01:23:15,200 Speaker 11: I have a lot of arguments with you know, mainstream 1741 01:23:15,280 --> 01:23:18,520 Speaker 11: media generals who say, you know, they were just incompetent, 1742 01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:21,200 Speaker 11: you know, they just missed him. Okay, Well, a couple 1743 01:23:21,200 --> 01:23:23,880 Speaker 11: of things. And this is what's important about the document 1744 01:23:23,960 --> 01:23:27,360 Speaker 11: that came out last week, Angleton. This new document shows 1745 01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:31,040 Speaker 11: lied under oath to JFK investigators. And there's a very 1746 01:23:31,200 --> 01:23:35,759 Speaker 11: stark exchange in the new document which shows very clearly 1747 01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:40,439 Speaker 11: so that he lied about Oswald's involvement in one CIA project, 1748 01:23:40,800 --> 01:23:42,799 Speaker 11: but Oswald tripped many CIA. 1749 01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 8: So what Angleton was hiding and what the CIA was 1750 01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:49,840 Speaker 8: hiding was and what the story. 1751 01:23:49,600 --> 01:23:53,360 Speaker 11: Of the quote unquote Loan Gunman hides is this extraordinary 1752 01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:56,040 Speaker 11: level of interest at the top of the CIA in 1753 01:23:56,120 --> 01:24:00,280 Speaker 11: this alleged pathetic, sociopathic, you know, loser who nobody would 1754 01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:02,720 Speaker 11: ever care about, or so we are often told. And 1755 01:24:02,840 --> 01:24:07,720 Speaker 11: yet James Angleton, one of the smartest, most capable intelligence 1756 01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:12,479 Speaker 11: officers of his generation, regarded as the premier counterintelligence officer 1757 01:24:12,880 --> 01:24:16,519 Speaker 11: in the Western world, is paying attention to Lee Harvey 1758 01:24:16,560 --> 01:24:19,320 Speaker 11: Oswell for four years. The CIA has never explained this, 1759 01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:22,960 Speaker 11: so because they don't have to, because reporters from the 1760 01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:25,040 Speaker 11: New York Times don't go and say, what is this? 1761 01:24:25,360 --> 01:24:30,639 Speaker 8: You know, and and you have this weird cognitive dissonance going. 1762 01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:34,320 Speaker 11: On where, you know, people won't look at this new evidence, 1763 01:24:34,320 --> 01:24:36,000 Speaker 11: they won't talk about it, they won't cover it because 1764 01:24:36,000 --> 01:24:38,519 Speaker 11: it works like this, Well, you know, that's a piece 1765 01:24:38,520 --> 01:24:41,280 Speaker 11: of evidence that's you know, that's of interest to Morley, 1766 01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:44,280 Speaker 11: and we know he's a conspiracy theorist, so that's kind 1767 01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:46,000 Speaker 11: of tainted evident, and we don't need to think about 1768 01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:48,640 Speaker 11: it because we know for sure that Oswell killed the president, right, 1769 01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:51,560 Speaker 11: you know, it's like and so that's been going on 1770 01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:54,559 Speaker 11: for years, and so you know, nobody knows the story 1771 01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:57,840 Speaker 11: that's just coming into view. So you know, I'm saying 1772 01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:02,000 Speaker 11: somehow this is part of the JFK story. Can't You 1773 01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:05,400 Speaker 11: can't say? One question was does this change the narrative? 1774 01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:06,360 Speaker 4: No? 1775 01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:10,160 Speaker 8: One document changes the narrative, But the entire. 1776 01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:14,000 Speaker 11: Oswald file that James Angleton had on his desk when 1777 01:25:14,080 --> 01:25:18,160 Speaker 11: Kennedy left for Dallas, that changes the narrative. You know 1778 01:25:18,920 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 11: what the file shows. There were two FBI reports on Oswald, 1779 01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:26,200 Speaker 11: everything he had been doing recently, He'd gotten arrested, he'd 1780 01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:29,080 Speaker 11: gone to Mexico City, he'd come back. Two FBI reports 1781 01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:33,000 Speaker 11: saying Oswald's in Dallas. They land on Angleton's desk on 1782 01:25:33,040 --> 01:25:37,880 Speaker 11: November fourteenth and fifteenth, nineteen sixty three. Never been explained. Wow, 1783 01:25:38,280 --> 01:25:40,360 Speaker 11: So that's where we're at. And you know, will they 1784 01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:43,920 Speaker 11: will the CIA explain? You know, unlike the FBI, the 1785 01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:46,960 Speaker 11: CIA has not turned over any new documents as a 1786 01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:49,720 Speaker 11: result of Trump's order. The CIA, I would say, is 1787 01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:53,639 Speaker 11: not in compliance with Trump's order. They have JFK documents 1788 01:25:53,680 --> 01:25:56,280 Speaker 11: in their possession. So what happens with the CIA? 1789 01:25:56,760 --> 01:25:58,360 Speaker 8: You know, are they going to turn over the JFK 1790 01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:00,840 Speaker 8: documents they have in their hands. That's you know, that's 1791 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:01,559 Speaker 8: a big question. 1792 01:26:01,720 --> 01:26:03,920 Speaker 11: But with these two diacments, I mean, I think we 1793 01:26:04,080 --> 01:26:08,520 Speaker 11: see kind of the big picture of Kennedy in conflict 1794 01:26:08,640 --> 01:26:14,040 Speaker 11: with his national security establishment and CIA officers paying close 1795 01:26:14,080 --> 01:26:16,639 Speaker 11: attention to the man who supposedly killed him. And we're 1796 01:26:16,640 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 11: going to learn more about that. And it is complicated, 1797 01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:20,800 Speaker 11: but I'll tell you a little bit of good news. 1798 01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:25,720 Speaker 11: I am going to testify before Representative Luna's hearing on 1799 01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:30,519 Speaker 11: JFK on April first, and I'm going to talk about 1800 01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:33,759 Speaker 11: this and you need to slow down. And I'm hoping 1801 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:37,080 Speaker 11: that I'll have the time to explain to the task force, 1802 01:26:37,400 --> 01:26:39,800 Speaker 11: you know, what this story is and how we can 1803 01:26:39,880 --> 01:26:42,200 Speaker 11: get the rest of it. You know what's interesting about 1804 01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:44,680 Speaker 11: this story is, you know, I'm so happy to be 1805 01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:48,760 Speaker 11: here because right now, requests for interviews are running about 1806 01:26:49,320 --> 01:26:52,240 Speaker 11: two to one, three to one in favor of conservative sites. 1807 01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:55,679 Speaker 8: Oh really, yeah, right, Jesse Waters called me up. Jesse 1808 01:26:55,880 --> 01:26:56,759 Speaker 8: is my new best friend. 1809 01:26:57,520 --> 01:27:00,880 Speaker 11: I go on a show and he's like those Democrats 1810 01:27:00,920 --> 01:27:03,320 Speaker 11: they're burning down the tesla is all over the world. 1811 01:27:03,280 --> 01:27:05,559 Speaker 8: And I'm sitting there, man, I can't afford a Tesla. 1812 01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:07,120 Speaker 8: I drive a Nissan road. 1813 01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:09,960 Speaker 4: Was asking you about tesla? 1814 01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:14,519 Speaker 11: Yeah no, he didn't, So no, that was the show 1815 01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:16,360 Speaker 11: before and I think I'm going to say something to 1816 01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:18,120 Speaker 11: this I'm going to say something to this guy. And 1817 01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:19,639 Speaker 11: then he comes on and he does like a four 1818 01:27:19,720 --> 01:27:25,000 Speaker 11: minute introduction to JFK's story, and it's like, I pretty 1819 01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:27,360 Speaker 11: much agree with that, Jesse, you know, and you know 1820 01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:29,960 Speaker 11: what I realized. I think what the JFK issue does 1821 01:27:30,080 --> 01:27:32,360 Speaker 11: is it's unites the anti war. 1822 01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:35,439 Speaker 8: Base on both sides. On the left. 1823 01:27:36,040 --> 01:27:39,400 Speaker 11: You know, people remember Kennedy as an inspiring leader, wants 1824 01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:41,879 Speaker 11: to end the Cold War, wants to take the American 1825 01:27:41,920 --> 01:27:45,400 Speaker 11: Empire in a new direction. And our anti war today 1826 01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:48,360 Speaker 11: right like whatever the details of Ukraine and gods it, 1827 01:27:48,800 --> 01:27:51,679 Speaker 11: we're against those wars because we're against war in general. 1828 01:27:51,840 --> 01:27:53,920 Speaker 11: You know, we don't think there's good wars. Those wars 1829 01:27:53,960 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 11: could have been prevented and on the right, we have 1830 01:27:56,400 --> 01:27:58,840 Speaker 11: a similar sentiment. It's more about we don't want to 1831 01:27:58,880 --> 01:28:01,880 Speaker 11: spend our blood and treasure on foreigners, Okay, but it's 1832 01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:05,280 Speaker 11: anti war also, it's an abhorrence of war. That's what's 1833 01:28:05,400 --> 01:28:08,160 Speaker 11: driving the JFK story, and that's what brings people together, 1834 01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:10,000 Speaker 11: and that's why I have no problem going on. 1835 01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:10,719 Speaker 8: Jesse wat. 1836 01:28:12,439 --> 01:28:15,400 Speaker 4: Angleton's relationship with Israeli intelligence has also been getting a 1837 01:28:15,439 --> 01:28:16,280 Speaker 4: lot of attention. 1838 01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:17,240 Speaker 8: You unpacked. 1839 01:28:18,080 --> 01:28:20,479 Speaker 11: Yeah, so I talked about don't look at one document, 1840 01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:23,799 Speaker 11: look at nine documents. So the nine documents about Angleton 1841 01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:26,960 Speaker 11: tell two stories that are important. One is about the 1842 01:28:27,120 --> 01:28:31,200 Speaker 11: birth of co intel Pro. Okay, coin tel Pro is 1843 01:28:31,240 --> 01:28:34,439 Speaker 11: typically thought of as an FBI program, right j Edgar Huber, 1844 01:28:34,479 --> 01:28:37,080 Speaker 11: It's associated with jaig Gar Huber, But co intel Pro 1845 01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:42,479 Speaker 11: was really a joint CIA FBI program and which Angleton 1846 01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:45,640 Speaker 11: has counterintelligence chief, had a lot of influence on a 1847 01:28:45,680 --> 01:28:51,920 Speaker 11: counterintelligence program of the FBI. So that's one thing, and 1848 01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:54,479 Speaker 11: we can talk about how that emerged. That's a very 1849 01:28:54,520 --> 01:28:57,600 Speaker 11: interesting story that doesn't take you into the history of 1850 01:28:57,680 --> 01:29:00,120 Speaker 11: JFK's assassination, but takes you at a history of the 1851 01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:01,920 Speaker 11: repression of the left and the sixties. 1852 01:29:02,360 --> 01:29:03,320 Speaker 8: Very important story. 1853 01:29:03,400 --> 01:29:06,000 Speaker 11: Yes, And the stuff about the fair Play for Cuba 1854 01:29:06,040 --> 01:29:08,960 Speaker 11: committee that's in here, that's another story that's coming. And 1855 01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:12,679 Speaker 11: I've got another good story about CIA spies in New Orleans. 1856 01:29:12,880 --> 01:29:15,120 Speaker 8: It's very cool to be fun. So I'm going to 1857 01:29:15,160 --> 01:29:15,800 Speaker 8: tease that for you. 1858 01:29:15,880 --> 01:29:18,400 Speaker 11: But the other thing that the Angleton, the nine Angleton 1859 01:29:18,479 --> 01:29:21,560 Speaker 11: documents that came in was his very close relations with 1860 01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:25,920 Speaker 11: the Israelis, and he gave testimony. Angleton gave testimony to 1861 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:29,160 Speaker 11: the Church Committee in June nineteen seventy five. He'd just 1862 01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:31,559 Speaker 11: been fired from the ci IS eager to justify himself 1863 01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:34,280 Speaker 11: and you say it, look, I'm really I was doing good. 1864 01:29:34,320 --> 01:29:39,040 Speaker 11: And he explains his extraordinary relationship with the Israeli security 1865 01:29:39,080 --> 01:29:41,880 Speaker 11: services going back to nineteen fifty one when he and 1866 01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:44,439 Speaker 11: David ben gury and come over and make a deal 1867 01:29:44,520 --> 01:29:47,880 Speaker 11: with Alan Dulles about how the two intelligence services will 1868 01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:51,759 Speaker 11: share information. That story of Angleton and the Israeli Services, 1869 01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:54,759 Speaker 11: which I talk about in my book about Angleton, the Ghost, 1870 01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:56,320 Speaker 11: and let me plug that right now. 1871 01:29:57,280 --> 01:29:58,639 Speaker 1: Go to Lincoln description. 1872 01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:01,479 Speaker 8: Yes, the go it's the Secret Life of James Jesus. 1873 01:30:01,520 --> 01:30:04,880 Speaker 11: Angleton tells this story and I had read a lot 1874 01:30:04,960 --> 01:30:07,080 Speaker 11: of these documents when I'd read all of these documents 1875 01:30:07,120 --> 01:30:09,360 Speaker 11: when I did my book, and now for the first 1876 01:30:09,400 --> 01:30:12,559 Speaker 11: time I see them and we understand the Angleton story 1877 01:30:12,600 --> 01:30:15,360 Speaker 11: with nuclarity, the birth of co intel Pro and the 1878 01:30:15,400 --> 01:30:20,240 Speaker 11: birth of US Israeli strategic relationship. Angleton, you know, like 1879 01:30:20,320 --> 01:30:22,720 Speaker 11: him or not. You know, people told me, people who 1880 01:30:22,880 --> 01:30:26,080 Speaker 11: liked him, said, this guy's a world historic figure. And 1881 01:30:26,680 --> 01:30:28,559 Speaker 11: you know, you can say he's sinister and he did 1882 01:30:28,600 --> 01:30:30,800 Speaker 11: bad things and all that, but that is not an 1883 01:30:30,920 --> 01:30:34,360 Speaker 11: unfair estimation of James Angleton. And he's at the center 1884 01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:36,840 Speaker 11: of what we're learning about the JFK story. 1885 01:30:36,960 --> 01:30:37,840 Speaker 1: This is where I am. 1886 01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:40,519 Speaker 3: This is my brain always gets so taken to about 1887 01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:43,000 Speaker 3: the co Intel Pro, like you were saying, and so 1888 01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:46,880 Speaker 3: you know, I was curious if we shed even more light. 1889 01:30:47,160 --> 01:30:49,680 Speaker 1: This gets to a bigger question. Ben Shapiro recently had 1890 01:30:49,720 --> 01:30:50,400 Speaker 1: a viral clip. 1891 01:30:50,439 --> 01:30:52,439 Speaker 3: I talked about it in your introduction before you were here, 1892 01:30:52,560 --> 01:30:55,040 Speaker 3: about where he was like, who cares who killed JFK? 1893 01:30:55,240 --> 01:30:56,760 Speaker 3: And he's like, I think it's interesting, but it's you know, 1894 01:30:56,800 --> 01:30:59,160 Speaker 3: what happened in nineteen sixty three. We're in twenty twenty five. 1895 01:30:59,280 --> 01:31:00,960 Speaker 3: And so I talked to Oliver Stone about this. He 1896 01:31:01,040 --> 01:31:02,800 Speaker 3: gave me such a poetic answer, But I want to 1897 01:31:02,800 --> 01:31:04,280 Speaker 3: ask you the same thing. Why does it matter who 1898 01:31:04,360 --> 01:31:04,840 Speaker 3: killed JFK? 1899 01:31:05,439 --> 01:31:08,400 Speaker 11: Because when JFK was killed and there was no accountability, 1900 01:31:08,880 --> 01:31:12,120 Speaker 11: the American empire took a turn. Kennedy was trying to 1901 01:31:12,200 --> 01:31:15,400 Speaker 11: steer the ship one way, and when Kennedy was killed 1902 01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:18,280 Speaker 11: and there was no accountability, the ship was steered another 1903 01:31:18,320 --> 01:31:19,800 Speaker 11: way and we never had a. 1904 01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:20,920 Speaker 8: Course correction after that. 1905 01:31:21,040 --> 01:31:26,280 Speaker 11: Because the faction that avoided accountability with Kennedy's murder and 1906 01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:30,040 Speaker 11: avoided responsibility for it, they had impunity and they could 1907 01:31:30,120 --> 01:31:34,200 Speaker 11: dominate all the policy debates that followed. And also because 1908 01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:37,120 Speaker 11: they had the secrecy of apparatus, the apparatus of secrecy 1909 01:31:37,160 --> 01:31:37,599 Speaker 11: around them. 1910 01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:38,920 Speaker 8: You know, why does it matter? 1911 01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:39,760 Speaker 4: Here? 1912 01:31:39,840 --> 01:31:44,080 Speaker 11: We are attacking the houthies, Okay, people who you know, 1913 01:31:44,720 --> 01:31:46,240 Speaker 11: post no threat to the American people. 1914 01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:51,200 Speaker 3: You know, as our vice president says secretly, chat, we 1915 01:31:51,320 --> 01:31:53,120 Speaker 3: only have three percent of the trade that moves through this. 1916 01:31:53,160 --> 01:31:53,880 Speaker 1: Why are we doing this? 1917 01:31:54,360 --> 01:31:54,559 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1918 01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:57,120 Speaker 8: And so you know, I imagine a young John F. 1919 01:31:57,240 --> 01:31:59,920 Speaker 11: Kennedy running for president and here we're bombing the hell 1920 01:32:00,000 --> 01:32:01,760 Speaker 11: out of these people seven thousand miles away, And I 1921 01:32:01,840 --> 01:32:04,920 Speaker 11: Remember what JFK said at American University. We do not 1922 01:32:05,200 --> 01:32:09,240 Speaker 11: want a pas Americana. We are not the world's policeman. 1923 01:32:09,720 --> 01:32:13,200 Speaker 11: That would be JFK's message to us today, and that's 1924 01:32:13,240 --> 01:32:17,280 Speaker 11: the relevance for Ben Shapiro right there. We do not 1925 01:32:17,479 --> 01:32:21,479 Speaker 11: want a Pax Americana. Imagine the Democratic presidential candidate saying 1926 01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:25,120 Speaker 11: that today. I think if one did, they would find 1927 01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:26,280 Speaker 11: a lot of success. 1928 01:32:26,120 --> 01:32:28,840 Speaker 4: Right And I think the fact that there was no 1929 01:32:28,920 --> 01:32:32,839 Speaker 4: accountability led to what, to me is the most salient 1930 01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:37,479 Speaker 4: fact about JFK's assassination that pretty much every president after him, 1931 01:32:37,600 --> 01:32:40,280 Speaker 4: definitely Johnson, definitely Nixon. You can talk about whether it's 1932 01:32:40,360 --> 01:32:44,479 Speaker 4: every single one whether or not the CIA or the 1933 01:32:44,560 --> 01:32:49,680 Speaker 4: Security Services killed Kennedy. Those presidents believed that they did 1934 01:32:49,880 --> 01:32:55,320 Speaker 4: or probably did. And as the person now occupying that chair, 1935 01:32:56,040 --> 01:32:59,160 Speaker 4: that changes your calculation when you're in the room with 1936 01:32:59,240 --> 01:33:03,519 Speaker 4: them talking about out how many covered agents they've got 1937 01:33:03,640 --> 01:33:05,719 Speaker 4: in the embassy, whether or not you're going to reduce 1938 01:33:05,840 --> 01:33:08,799 Speaker 4: You can hear it in Johnson's phone calls. He's terrible, 1939 01:33:08,880 --> 01:33:11,320 Speaker 4: like Chuck Schumer, saif is going to find out that 1940 01:33:11,400 --> 01:33:12,160 Speaker 4: the CIA. 1941 01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:12,320 Speaker 1: That's right? 1942 01:33:12,400 --> 01:33:14,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, He's like, oh, they're going to find It's like, 1943 01:33:14,160 --> 01:33:16,240 Speaker 3: oh my god, we're just saying this stuff out loud. 1944 01:33:16,280 --> 01:33:18,120 Speaker 1: You can hear with Nixon, you know Nixon. 1945 01:33:18,120 --> 01:33:20,200 Speaker 3: I mean not that he was a great guy or whatever, 1946 01:33:20,360 --> 01:33:22,560 Speaker 3: but you could hear the terror in him and his 1947 01:33:22,680 --> 01:33:26,160 Speaker 3: alman's voice with Hoover, like we got I. 1948 01:33:26,160 --> 01:33:27,920 Speaker 8: Tell you story. I tell a story in my book. 1949 01:33:28,160 --> 01:33:29,799 Speaker 8: Nixon calls Helms into the overlop. 1950 01:33:31,080 --> 01:33:33,600 Speaker 4: I want that report on the Van Pigs goddemmic. 1951 01:33:33,360 --> 01:33:35,840 Speaker 11: Right, and Elms is like, mister president, why do you 1952 01:33:35,920 --> 01:33:39,320 Speaker 11: lead that? And you hear Nixon say it the who 1953 01:33:39,400 --> 01:33:45,799 Speaker 11: shot John Angele Nixon thought he knew, yeah exactly. Johnson 1954 01:33:46,280 --> 01:33:49,400 Speaker 11: told Walter, one of his aides, that he thought that 1955 01:33:49,640 --> 01:33:50,719 Speaker 11: the CIA was involved. 1956 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:52,440 Speaker 8: He didn't believe the Warren Commission. 1957 01:33:53,439 --> 01:33:56,200 Speaker 11: And I always ask people, you know if Lyndon Johnson, 1958 01:33:56,240 --> 01:33:59,400 Speaker 11: who appointed the Warren Commission, didn't believe its conclusions. 1959 01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:02,720 Speaker 8: Like why should right? Right? Like, well, why is that irrational? 1960 01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:04,760 Speaker 4: Where do you come down, by the way on Johnson's 1961 01:34:05,160 --> 01:34:05,720 Speaker 4: knowledge or. 1962 01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:09,280 Speaker 11: I think the most telling thing about Lyndon Johnson is 1963 01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:12,760 Speaker 11: that within two days he said, we have to prove 1964 01:34:13,080 --> 01:34:16,759 Speaker 11: Oswald acted alone. Yes, right, I mean he's he's ordered 1965 01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:19,360 Speaker 11: his finding before the investigation has begun. 1966 01:34:19,479 --> 01:34:22,639 Speaker 8: What was he afraid of? You know, he was afraid 1967 01:34:22,680 --> 01:34:24,360 Speaker 8: that he would have to investigate. 1968 01:34:23,920 --> 01:34:26,120 Speaker 11: His own government and tear his own government apart, or 1969 01:34:26,200 --> 01:34:27,920 Speaker 11: he would have to go to war with the Soviet 1970 01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:30,040 Speaker 11: Union or Cuban and he didn't want to do either 1971 01:34:30,080 --> 01:34:30,639 Speaker 11: one of those things. 1972 01:34:30,760 --> 01:34:34,040 Speaker 8: So Oswald was the perfect solution, the patsy, the fall guy. 1973 01:34:34,360 --> 01:34:37,240 Speaker 8: It's all his fault, nothing's wrong. Let's move along, people, 1974 01:34:37,680 --> 01:34:39,120 Speaker 8: And that was the political. 1975 01:34:38,800 --> 01:34:41,519 Speaker 11: Solution, and it held and and a lot of people 1976 01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:43,160 Speaker 11: bought it, and a lot of people bought it for 1977 01:34:43,240 --> 01:34:45,919 Speaker 11: the best reasons. You know, we believe in our government, 1978 01:34:46,400 --> 01:34:48,720 Speaker 11: and you know, there's a terrible tragedy and we have 1979 01:34:48,840 --> 01:34:50,880 Speaker 11: to cope with it somehow, and there's this story. It's 1980 01:34:50,920 --> 01:34:53,080 Speaker 11: hard to believe, but you know, let's get on with it. 1981 01:34:53,520 --> 01:34:56,439 Speaker 11: And people's trust was really abused. And you know, and 1982 01:34:56,680 --> 01:34:59,720 Speaker 11: now you know, here's where the CIA inherits the whirlwind 1983 01:35:00,200 --> 01:35:04,599 Speaker 11: because their bogus story about Lee Harvey Oswald has bred, 1984 01:35:05,479 --> 01:35:08,960 Speaker 11: has bred a conspiratorial culture. Yes, you know that that 1985 01:35:09,200 --> 01:35:12,680 Speaker 11: that thrives on suspicion of government and undermines it. 1986 01:35:12,800 --> 01:35:15,479 Speaker 8: And you know that's you know, that's a terrible thing. 1987 01:35:15,600 --> 01:35:17,280 Speaker 11: And so when I go on these shows, you know, 1988 01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:21,280 Speaker 11: these the right wingers that they wanted to use this 1989 01:35:21,439 --> 01:35:23,400 Speaker 11: story to kind of beat up on, you know, what 1990 01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:25,719 Speaker 11: they call the deep state, you know, and help Trump 1991 01:35:25,840 --> 01:35:28,439 Speaker 11: do that. And the liberal media is kind of like, oh, 1992 01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:30,479 Speaker 11: you know, we hope that there's nothing in there that 1993 01:35:31,320 --> 01:35:32,360 Speaker 11: supports conspiracy. 1994 01:35:32,360 --> 01:35:34,639 Speaker 8: There is because they're you know, so irrational and stuff 1995 01:35:34,680 --> 01:35:37,280 Speaker 8: like that. You know, we got to get past that. 1996 01:35:37,760 --> 01:35:39,600 Speaker 8: You know, I agree with you, you know, and and 1997 01:35:39,760 --> 01:35:42,960 Speaker 8: and and and and with getting this record. And you know, 1998 01:35:43,479 --> 01:35:44,840 Speaker 8: kudos to Trump, right. 1999 01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:47,640 Speaker 11: I don't agree with him on practically anything, but he 2000 01:35:47,960 --> 01:35:50,840 Speaker 11: definitely did the right thing on this and you see it. 2001 01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:52,640 Speaker 11: We see it now, and we're going to get the 2002 01:35:52,680 --> 01:35:55,639 Speaker 11: benefits of it once people are a little patient, stop 2003 01:35:55,720 --> 01:35:57,680 Speaker 11: looking for the smoking gun and start looking for. 2004 01:35:57,720 --> 01:35:58,360 Speaker 8: The fact patter. 2005 01:35:58,520 --> 01:36:01,000 Speaker 1: Jeff Wall have you talk about Jack Ruby. 2006 01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:05,360 Speaker 3: That's where it all falls apart from me, where it's 2007 01:36:05,439 --> 01:36:07,880 Speaker 3: just not falls apart per se. But that's where the 2008 01:36:08,040 --> 01:36:09,759 Speaker 3: altra conspiracy starts. 2009 01:36:10,040 --> 01:36:10,200 Speaker 1: Here. 2010 01:36:10,240 --> 01:36:10,960 Speaker 4: You're not even trying. 2011 01:36:11,040 --> 01:36:13,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like, what are we doing?

So that's the organized crime part of it, 2055 01:37:56,280 --> 01:37:58,840 Speaker 11: Jack Ruby, is the organized crime component of what happened. 2056 01:37:59,520 --> 01:38:02,160 Speaker 11: You know, we can talk about like what really happened 2057 01:38:02,200 --> 01:38:05,000 Speaker 11: that day, but you know, clearly Oswall was not supposed 2058 01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:08,120 Speaker 11: to be captured alive.
