1 00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: Hey, guys, ready or not, twenty twenty four is here, 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: and we here at breaking points, are already thinking of 3 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: ways we can up our game for this critical election. 4 00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 2: We rely on our premium subs to expand coverage, upgrade 5 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 2: the studio ad staff, give you, guys, the best independent coverage. 6 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:16,280 Speaker 3: That is possible. 7 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:18,319 Speaker 2: If you like what we're all about, it just means 8 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 2: the absolute world to have your support. But enough with that, 9 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 2: Let's get to the show. Let's go now to Mark 10 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 2: Cuban to Lena Khan. There's been a great war. We 11 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 2: talked about this previously where there had been efforts by 12 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 2: Reid Hoffman, the Democratic mega donor billionaire, to oust Lena 13 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 2: Khan on television. She is the FTC chair under President 14 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 2: Biden and has been very aggressive on antitrust, specifically in 15 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:50,239 Speaker 2: Silicon Valley. Well, now, Mark Cuban, who has really emerged 16 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 2: as a major kamalas surriat let's put this up there 17 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 2: on the screen, has come out in a recent Semaphore 18 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 2: event to say, quote, if it were me, I wouldn't 19 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 2: asked if she should keep Lena Khan as FTC chair. 20 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 3: Quote. 21 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 2: By trying to break up the biggest tech companies, you 22 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 2: risk our ability to be the best in artificial intelligence. 23 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 2: This fits with a general strategy by Cuban to not 24 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 2: only serve as a surrogate, but to do so for 25 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 2: a very specific purpose, in that he wants to be 26 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,479 Speaker 2: the head of the SEC under Kamala Harris. 27 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 3: Let's take a lesson. 28 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 4: But I asked you, Mark, whether you would entertain being 29 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 4: a Treasury secret or Commerce secretary in a. 30 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,199 Speaker 3: Harrison, head of the SEC, head of the SEC. 31 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 5: That's the job I would take. 32 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,119 Speaker 3: That is a man who knows exactly what he wants. 33 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 2: Because Kavudo is like, hey, are you going to be 34 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 2: the Commerce secretary? He's like head of the SEC, head 35 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: of the SEC. He knows exactly which one he's going for. 36 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 2: This is though, and it will be an interesting fight 37 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: if Kamala does win. So we had Senator Bernie Sanders 38 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 2: come out. Let's put this on the screen. He says, 39 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,559 Speaker 2: Mark Cuban is wrong. Lena Khan is the best FDC 40 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 2: chair in history. By taking on corporate greed and illegal monopolies, 41 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: Lena is doing an exceptional job preventing large corporations from 42 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 2: ripping off consumers and exploiting workers. 43 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 3: Thank you, Lena for what you are doing. 44 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: This is also interesting because I saw David Serota making 45 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 2: this point. It is now that the Republican vice presidential candidate, 46 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: Jade Vance has had better things to say about Lena 47 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: Kahn publicly, at least publicly than Kamala Harris herself, who 48 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: clearly has a disparate like billionaire coalition at the top, 49 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 2: which is very broken up about how exactly she should govern, 50 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 2: how she should have policy proposals and all that. 51 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 3: And I think this will be a flagship test for her. 52 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 3: I'm not sure which way to'll go if I had 53 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 3: to bet. I think Cuban's going to wait, yeah, well. 54 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: In the specific job that he's angling for head of 55 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: the SEC that's the Securities Exchange Commission. Gary Gensler is 56 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: the head of the SEC right now. And you know, 57 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 1: the Mark Cuban billionaire types of the world, they not 58 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 1: only hate Lena Khan also hate Gensler, and specifically they 59 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,399 Speaker 1: hate Gensler because he has been hard on crypto. He's 60 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 1: been I mean, he's just like applying the laws to crypto, 61 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: and so a lot of the you know a lot 62 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: of people in the tech billionaire world, they are really 63 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: adversarial towards Gary Gensler too, so Mark Cuban signaling he 64 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: would be you know, friendly in a lot of regards 65 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: if he was there as head of the SEC. And 66 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: you know, it's one thing if you were like, oh, 67 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: this guy's just out there freelancing like a billionaire, just 68 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: like saying I hate these you know, attacks on corporate power. 69 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 5: But he is. 70 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: He is an official Kamala Harris surrogate, and he has 71 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: made it clear in the past when he was criticizing 72 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: the approach of the SEC, which is, you know, their 73 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: approach is just literally actually enforcing the law. He was 74 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: critical of that and he was asked, effectively like are 75 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: you saying this or is the campaign saying this? 76 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 5: And he was like, the campaign told me. 77 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: She's told me to say these things, so you know, 78 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: it's yeah, it's it sucks because the best hope for 79 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: Kama from my perspective, would be that she would be 80 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: more like Obama on foreign policy a little you know 81 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: that he had the Iranian nuclear deal, he was a 82 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: little bit more adversarial towards Israel. Not over stated in 83 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: the case, but he was certainly better than Joe Biden, 84 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: and that she would be more like Biden on domestic policy, 85 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: where the FTC, the anti trust stuff, the labor stuff. 86 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 1: The I think she labor seems like she'll be, you know, 87 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: more or less where Biden was on labor as best as. 88 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 5: We can tell. 89 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: But the sec you know, skeptical approach to crypto that 90 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: she would carry over those pieces. And you know, at 91 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: this point you just have to say that in the 92 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: cases are very worrying that she'll revert to the Obama era, 93 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: very Wall Street cozy type of relationship towards Wall Street 94 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: and Silicon Valley. It makes sense in certain regards since 95 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris was Attorney General of California during the time 96 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: when a bunch of these tech companies were rising to 97 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: be the monopolistic behemoths that they are right now, and she, 98 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: you know, she did not scrutinize them whatsoever. A lot 99 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: of her donor base came from that world, et cetera, 100 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: et cetera. And so you know, on the one hand, yes, 101 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 1: the Biden Harris administration has actually been really good on 102 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: these things. In fact, we could put up D five. 103 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: The Justice Department under Biden Harris is now considering asking 104 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: a federal judge to actually break up Google and sell 105 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: off parts of its business. So they have been certainly 106 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: the most skeptical and the most tough on these you know, 107 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 1: giant tech monopolies, and a lot of other monopolies as well, 108 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: have have really tried to re establish antitrust regulation and 109 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 1: enforcement and look at these anti competitive practices that giant 110 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: companies like Google have, you know, have pursued. But but 111 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: she seems so enamored with this, like I'm going to 112 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: appeal to Republicans and I'm gonna, you know, appeal to 113 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: Wall Street strategy that I think there's a real risk 114 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: that she does not follow through on, you know, the 115 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: positive Biden direction that we've seen on these things. I 116 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 1: would be remissified and point out like, obviously Trump's biggest 117 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: backer is Elon Musk, who's one of the richest people 118 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: on the planet and is himself now at tech oligarch 119 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera. So you know, I don't want 120 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: to make it seem like, oh, the Republicans will be 121 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 1: better on big tech. The evidence is the Biden Harris 122 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: administration has been better and more skeptical of corporate power, 123 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: more skeptical of tech in general. Then the Trump administration was, 124 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: But just from a you know, policy perspective, I think 125 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: it's a real shame that she appears to be reluctant 126 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: to let down the Mark Cubans of the world, thinks 127 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: that this is like the best political direction for her 128 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: to go in trying to cater to these you know, 129 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,720 Speaker 1: Wall Street executives and billionaires. And I don't know if 130 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: it will matter in terms of the election, but I 131 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: saw some opining from like Matt Iglesias and the like that, 132 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: you know, there weren't really any political rewards for being 133 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: more aggressive on anti trust enforcement. So the reason to 134 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: jodahs because it's a good policy, not because it works out 135 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: to be good politics. But I sort of disagree with 136 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,679 Speaker 1: that because if you look at the polling of Kamala 137 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: Harris and even of Joe Biden, to certain extending that 138 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: is very unpopular. She consistently performs better on is going 139 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: to represent the interest of the middle class, and you know, 140 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: consistently performs better on questions of who's going to represent 141 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: the wealthy and who's going to represent the average American? 142 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 5: And you know, do I think that. 143 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: People are really immersed in the details of what Lena 144 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: Khan's doing at the FTC, et cetera, et cetera. No, 145 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: but some of this breaks through. Some of this gives 146 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: a sense of Okay, they've been you know, they've been 147 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: fighting in these key regards, whether it's going after junk 148 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: fees or trying to make it easier to file your taxes, 149 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: or going after some of these big concentrations of power. 150 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: Some of that does break through. And so to just 151 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: dismiss those numbers of where she is performing better than 152 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: Trump on who's going to represent your interest over the 153 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: interest of the wealthy, I think is also to be 154 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: very selective in your analysis of the politics of this. 155 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 3: I just don't know. 156 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 2: I really don't know this whole deliverism theory and all 157 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 2: of that. I mean, yeah, it's like about how many 158 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 2: voters out there who are even thinking about middle class 159 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 2: think about the FDC. Now, I only scenario says toally wrong. 160 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 2: They're going to feel it regardless of the policy or not. 161 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 2: But are they paying attention. Evidence is probably not, so 162 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 2: I think she might be able to get away with 163 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 2: it if she does win under the Trump administration. 164 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 3: It's an open. 165 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 2: Question, Like I said, because of JD's previous comments, on 166 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 2: Lena Khan and which direction that they will decide to 167 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: go under their DOJ and their FTC. It really honestly 168 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 2: depends on which donor or whatever. So we'll see. It's 169 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 2: one of those where the actual question of it is 170 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 2: more important at a policy level than necessarily like political. 171 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 2: This is actually I mean again, it's like all I 172 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 2: was talking about this yesterday on the Johnny Mitchell Show, 173 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 2: By the Way to Connect, we were talking about economic 174 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 2: policy and all that. Unless you're very wealthy, you don't 175 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 2: really have any specific economic things to point to. 176 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 3: I've been thinking about this. 177 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: What do you mean rich people know exactly what they 178 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 2: want from the tax code. 179 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 3: Salt, that's it, salt. 180 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 2: If you're a small business owner yah tcja QBI, you're like, 181 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: you know exactly what you need to low or attacks 182 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 2: by X, Y and Z. 183 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 3: Most people. 184 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 2: If you're a W two income person and you make 185 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 2: less than four hundred thousand dollars a year, which is 186 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 2: ninety something percent of the country, both of these candidates 187 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 2: say they will not increase your marginal tax rate. So 188 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: you have nothing specific that you can point to. Maybe 189 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 2: if you work in the solar industry, you can be like, yeah, 190 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,199 Speaker 2: it's tax credit, or if you work in oil and gas, 191 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 2: you can be like, Okay, I want some stuffsdy or whatever. 192 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 3: Eventually that will filter down to me. 193 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 2: But something I've realized in like this FTC and all 194 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: that is that it is a hyper elite conversation because 195 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 2: most people don't make money, or make enough money, or 196 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 2: make money in the ways to be affected by this 197 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 2: macro condition. A lot of it is just a totally 198 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 2: elite conversation because I mean and correctly, people should not 199 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 2: know about salt or any of these other things because 200 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 2: you know, it doesn't affect your everyday life unless you're 201 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 2: what three hundred K four un k or whatever household. 202 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 2: By the way, I understand, there is one coreal I 203 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 2: want to make the salt thing. Yeah, that some Californians 204 00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 2: have pointed out to me. If you did buy your 205 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: house in n it te eighties, like a lot of boomers, 206 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 2: and then it massively increased, the property tax bill has 207 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 2: now become so high that the reduction of salt actually 208 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 2: did negatively impact them. So that might be the one 209 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 2: case where I am sympathetic on salt. 210 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 3: I'm like, I get it. 211 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 2: I get it because now you're paying a shit ton 212 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 2: of property tax in the state of California, and that's 213 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 2: no longer deductible from your overall federal tax burden. Again, 214 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 2: the data does tell us that it's massively beneficial to 215 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 2: make over one million. 216 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 5: No, it's almost exclusively a tax. 217 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 3: Menal over ninety percent. 218 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: That's why you're like, oh, I don't know how Trumble 219 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: got like I do. 220 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 5: I mean we've already seen. 221 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 3: Well we don't. 222 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 2: That's not fair because he's not back in office like 223 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 2: he says, but I'm going to have different people who 224 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 2: are in power. 225 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 3: Well, see all that works out. But I don't know. 226 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: But think about this, think about this. Okay, what are 227 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: the issues that he's flipped on? 228 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 2: Okay, by the way, so don't don't don't erase what 229 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 2: happened to the Wall Street Journal yesterday, which is that 230 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 2: expats will no longer be double taxed coming through for this, 231 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: Will someone think of rich Americans? 232 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 5: That's right, and somebody please think of these things. 233 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,559 Speaker 1: That's you know, that's really going to feel the deal 234 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: for him in terms of his election. 235 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 3: There's four million of them and they can vote. 236 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 1: So you've got you know, you've got his assault flip 237 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 1: flop You've got him shifting on crypto. You've got him, 238 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: you know, going to the oil and gas industry like 239 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 1: I will do whatever you want. That's not real flip flop. 240 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: You've got him promising rich people, billionaires that hey, back 241 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: me because I'm going to do the tc JA that 242 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: we know for sure he's going to do. And we 243 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: see who has been honestly most empowered in his campaign, 244 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 1: and that's Elon Musk, who is one of the biggest 245 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: UH union busters in the country. Elon Musk is right 246 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: now going to the Supreme Court to try to argue 247 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: that the National Labor Relations Board is literally unconstitutional, and 248 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: that is Donald Trump's probably biggest backer, certainly most influential backer. 249 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: So no, I mean, I'm clear eyed about where Kabla 250 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: Harris stands vis these issues and the hints that her 251 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: campaign is giving out and also the notable silence that 252 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: she won't say what she'll do on Lena. But I 253 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 1: think we also have to be clear right about Donald 254 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 1: Trump is made it manifestly evident who you know he 255 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: is catering to in his campaign and with cater to 256 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: in office, which is the same group that he cater 257 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: to in. 258 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 2: All whether he I don't disagree with anything he said 259 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 2: on the campaign. I'm saying with governance. What I do 260 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 2: know is that with chaos comes potential opportunity. Will you 261 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 2: get one hundred percent of like all the things that 262 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: you just said, Probably not. But the one thing that 263 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: I could point to is that with Trump and his 264 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 2: whole like I've made a huge mistake last time not 265 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 2: hiring enough loyalists, is that some of these loyalists have 266 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 2: very different views on the economics than Gary Kohane or 267 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 2: Jared Kushner the last time around. Will those people have 268 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 2: any empowerment in the administration, It's totally open question. So yeah, 269 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 2: I think it's one of those where in general, I 270 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: think you're probably right in terms of the way that 271 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,679 Speaker 2: it will go. But you know, we shouldn't also forget 272 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,319 Speaker 2: with the Republican Congress. You know, Trump may be pro salt, 273 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 2: but that doesn't mean that Republicans are going to bring 274 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 2: some salt back. Republicans love punishing blue states, and none 275 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: of their constituents are the ones who have to pay 276 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 2: for it. So it's little things like that where there 277 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 2: are major fights to happen. 278 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 3: All the TCJ. 279 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: The fact that you've had a surge in Republican support 280 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: in New York. 281 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true, that'd be in the House. 282 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 5: That to be in the Senate, right, but you brought 283 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 5: up the House. 284 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 3: Oh no, I was talking about the Senate. I'm saying 285 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 3: in this I mean that's where DJ. 286 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 1: But that's where like you know, that's why there's been 287 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: the Salt Caucus on the Democratic side is because New 288 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: York and New Jersey you've had genuine Republican surge. Again, 289 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: Democrats are going to win New York overall, but you 290 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: have a general genuine Republican surge, especially like Long Island 291 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: in some of these areas, and so those are like 292 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: the frontline Republicans swing district Republicans now, which gives them 293 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: disproportionate power. So no, it would not surprise me to 294 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: see them be you could pull off the sult thing, 295 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: especially because you would have some Democrats to go along. 296 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 2: But what if we had d House, our Senate, our Congress. 297 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,599 Speaker 2: That would be interesting because it's like, well, then you 298 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 2: know if it does have to pass, look something that 299 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 2: is going to go through. 300 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 3: That's another thing. Not enough people talk about this. 301 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 2: Again because most people don't know enough about tax policy. 302 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 2: The greatest most tit t fight will take place in 303 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Whenever 304 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 2: it expires, there is no world where business will just 305 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 2: let it flat fall flat impossible. There's way too much 306 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 2: money that is on the line because otherwise everything just 307 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 2: reverts back to it. So how that all goes, you know, 308 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 2: we should just prepare our audience. 309 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 3: That will be the most. 310 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 2: Important economic time in frankly a decade since that past, 311 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 2: because they'll probably re extend it for another eight years 312 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 2: and that will govern the tax regime of AI, of crypto, 313 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 2: of steel, unions of solar, like everything for what the 314 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 2: future looks like, income tax, et cetera. It's going to 315 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 2: be it's going to be a crazy fight. I'm actually 316 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 2: kind of excited for it. 317 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: We talk about polls, all right, So we continue to 318 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: await Israel's retaliation against Iran. We know that Bibi Netna, 319 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: who spoke to Joe Biden. We don't know much about 320 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: the details of that conversation at this point, or even 321 00:14:57,520 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: if it matters, given that Joe Biden barely exists at 322 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: this point, but we did get some indications from Defense 323 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 1: Secretary of Israel Yoev goalant, we can put this up 324 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: on the screen of what the attack will look like. 325 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: This is what he's threatening. He says, Israel's coming attack 326 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 1: on Iran will be deadly precise and especially surprising. They 327 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: will not know what happened and how it happened. They 328 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: will see the results. So that's what we. 329 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 5: Know thus far. Ryan and Emily covered. 330 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,479 Speaker 1: But I just want to reiterate because it's so important 331 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: that we have learned some of the most deeply disturbing 332 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: things you possibly could about the US posture viz a VI, 333 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: both the attacks on Lebanon and the forthcoming attacks on Iran. 334 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: First of all, we had reports that, you know, some 335 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: of the people were actually running midst Middle East policy, 336 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: like Brett McGirk effectively greenlit the Israeli invasion into Lebanon. 337 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: You now have bb threatening, Hey, we're going to turn 338 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: which they have been all along, but these are now 339 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: that they have actually invaded, even more credible. Hey, we're 340 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: going to turn Lebanon into Gaza, calling on leban these 341 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 1: people to rise up and throw off hesbela to so 342 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: as to avoid the genocidal fate that has met the 343 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 1: Palestinians in Gaza. So you have the US apparently green 344 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: lighting that, and you have a report that the Biden 345 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: administration is not only cool with Israel now attacking Iran, 346 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: but they are themselves considering in striking Iran directly, like 347 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: the US doing that, which is unconstitutional, not to mention, 348 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 1: not a thing that we should be doing. So that's 349 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: where things stand right now. We also have, you know, 350 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: very troubling images coming out of Lebanon. I don't know 351 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: if you all have followed this story, but there's a 352 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: UN peacekeepers that originate from Ireland that we're told to 353 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: told by the Israelis like you need to get out, 354 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: and they were like, no, we're peacekeepers. We're not going anywhere. 355 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: We're staying here. And we can put this up on 356 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: the screen, the Israeli bombs. This is from the perspective 357 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: of those Irish peacekeepers and you can see just how 358 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: close they are bombing to this UN peacekeeping force and facility. 359 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 1: We know there's already been massive civilian deaths in Lebanon. 360 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 1: We know that a lot of civilian infrastructure has already 361 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: been targeted in Lebanon. So those threats of turning at 362 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: least southern Lebanon into Gaza seem like something that is 363 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 1: very very possible. Let's go and put E three up 364 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,199 Speaker 1: on the screen. This is just the latest in the 365 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: oh buttons. Very frustrated blah blah blah. US frustrated by 366 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: Israel's reluctance to share Iran retaliation plans by an administration 367 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: hopes to avoid a repeat of surprise attacks like the 368 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: killing of Hezbolah's leader. They say they've been repeatedly caught 369 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: off guard by Israel's military actions in Gaza, Lebanon. Seeking 370 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: a head off further escalation, some but hope the US 371 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 1: would learn more about what Israel's contemplating During a plan 372 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: meeting Wednesday between You'll have Golan and Defend Secretary Lloyd 373 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: Austin at the Pentagon, but Galant postponed his trip. Natannil, 374 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 1: who actually blocked him, blocked Gallant from leaving for the 375 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: US On Tuesday night, is Israel continued planning it's around operation, 376 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 1: an Israeli official said. US officials said they don't yet 377 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: have either the timing of the strike or what Israel 378 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: might target. We are the client state here, guys. That's 379 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: basically the bottom line is we feed Israel's ambitions for 380 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 1: whateverever death and destruction. They want to reek thround the region. 381 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: The most we can apparently do with the level of 382 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: impotence of Joe Biden is meekly protest and leaked to 383 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal that we are frustrated, which honestly, 384 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 1: at this point, who really cares? 385 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, who cares at all? 386 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 2: Inside Israel, they're also you know, look, there's some signs, 387 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 2: some troubling signs. 388 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 3: Let's put this up there on the screen. 389 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 2: Two people were killed in a town in northern Israel 390 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 2: after it was hit by rocket fire from Hezbola. Patients 391 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 2: were admitted to the hospital after that missile struck outside 392 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,679 Speaker 2: of Haifa, so you can see that there was a 393 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 2: failure of their aerial defense systems. You also have this 394 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 2: interesting sign of domestic consternation. Let's put this up there, 395 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 2: please on the screen. One hundred and thirty Israeli soldiers 396 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 2: declaring they will refuse to serve unless the government seeks 397 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 2: a hostage deal. Quote for some of us, the red 398 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 2: line has been crossed already. Reservists and draftees across multiple 399 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 2: military branches that they warned they will see service if 400 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 2: the hostage negotiations are not prioritized, so obviously, you know 401 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 2: that was something where they feel I think correctly it's 402 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 2: been totally abandoned. But I mean, this is not an 403 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 2: act without punishment. This is literally like an act of mutiny. 404 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: So you know, they'll be significantly punished if they do 405 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 2: go through with it, and then that could potentially raise 406 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 2: major domestic turmoil inside the country as well. 407 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 3: So not all is good. 408 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 2: You know, inside the country, there's losing a like I said, 409 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 2: hundreds of billions of shekels. They have a huge problem 410 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 2: right now with the lack of the Palestinian workers that 411 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 2: are there, with the factor they have a pay all 412 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 2: these reservists, and then those reservists are not at Imagine 413 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 2: if you had a huge percentage of the young male 414 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 2: population in the US just plucked out of the US 415 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 2: economy overnight for an entire year, it would be crazy. 416 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 2: That's what happened during World War Two. They're at that 417 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 2: at scale, they're looking at a similar level of deployment. 418 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: So it's you know, things are not good over there 419 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 2: right now. 420 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: The justification for the invasion of Lebanon and all the 421 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: attacks on Hesbolah, etc. Including the you know assassinating of Nostrella, 422 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,360 Speaker 1: which they used over eighty two thousand pound bombs and 423 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: you know, murdered a lot of civilians in the process. 424 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: Of The justification for that was, oh, we got to 425 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: get our people back into northern Israel because they've been 426 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: displaced since October seventh. That's part of why this rocket 427 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: attack on northern Israel is really significant from Hesblah, because 428 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: they're not going to be safe to go back anytime soon. 429 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: There are not still not many people who remain in 430 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 1: northern Israel, and the only real answer in order to 431 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: for your people to be safe and secure in general, 432 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: and certainly safe and secure in northern Israel, is some 433 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 1: sort of a diplomatic resolution ceasefire deal has wells firing 434 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 1: rockets because of the Israeli onslaught in Gaza. 435 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:11,640 Speaker 5: They have made that clear. 436 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: The entire time when there was a ceasefires, will also 437 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,959 Speaker 1: participated in that ceasefire, there were no rockets fired. And 438 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: so you know, the idea that you're going to secure 439 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: safety and security for your own people through more bombs 440 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 1: and more conflict and going to war with war countries. 441 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 1: I mean, how many countries have they even bombed at 442 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: this point is foolish. 443 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 5: It's foolish. 444 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: It is not is you know, going to satisfy the 445 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: desire for revenge among a large portion of the population. 446 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, these actions are very popular. The 447 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 1: you know, one hundred and thirty brave IDF soldiers signing 448 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 1: on to this refusal to serve if the ceasefire deal 449 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 1: is not negotiated. Notwithstanding, these actions in general are very, 450 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: very popular. But there's a you know, a deeply troubling 451 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: future for those people who actually care about the state 452 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 1: of Israel because in addition to this domestic mutiny in 453 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 1: some small corners, you also have a lot of people 454 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: who are just like, I don't know if I'm going 455 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: to stay here. Put this up on the screen. This 456 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: is fascinating poll of Israeli citizens. Almost a quarter of 457 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:19,360 Speaker 1: Israelis have weighed leaving the country. You have thirty six 458 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: percent of opposition party supporters who have weighed leaving the country. 459 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 1: Similar number of secular respondents. And this matters a lot 460 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 1: from like just basic sustenance of the state perspective in 461 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: terms of Israel because the war, you know, the very 462 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: religious predominantly many of the men don't work. They have 463 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: large families, they have large birth rates, and they rely 464 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 1: a lot and also don't serve in the military, by 465 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: the way, they rely a lot on government safety net. 466 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: So if you don't have those more secular citizens to 467 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: be able to work, pay taxes, be you know, net 468 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 1: positive into paying into that social safety net, the whole 469 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: kind of program and the whole deal that they've got 470 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: going on there really falters. Not to mention, it just 471 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 1: continues this drift further and further to the more and 472 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 1: more extreme right within society that you've already seen. And 473 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: the other thing I was note worthy about this soccer 474 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: is it's not just that they've like thought about leaving 475 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: the country, like, you know, every election Donald Trump's maybe 476 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: going to get re elected, you get to certain number 477 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: of people that are like, this is it, I'm leaving 478 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: the US. 479 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 3: They never have. 480 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 1: But these are people who, by and large majority of 481 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 1: them have actually taken actions to like, let me look 482 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 1: into jobs overseas, let me look into what the situation 483 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,479 Speaker 1: would be like for my kids in school, let me 484 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: evaluate like properties, let me secure a past, you know, 485 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: a pass border citizenship in another country. So they've they've 486 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:52,199 Speaker 1: taken it seriously beyond just like, you know, going on 487 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:53,919 Speaker 1: Twitter and being like I'm going to leave right. 488 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 3: Yeah. 489 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 2: No, I mean, look, a lot of Israelis are dual citizens. 490 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 2: It's also a small country, a lot of them travel, 491 00:23:58,119 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 2: a lot of them travel a lot, a lot of 492 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 2: them have relictives, you know, all across the world, or 493 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 2: they speak multiple languages, so it's actually a lot more 494 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 2: feasible for them to be able to lead. 495 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 3: If they wanted. 496 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, the bear is way way lower, especially given a 497 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 2: lot of ties to Europe, you know, and the way 498 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 2: that the U citizenship laws work in those places as 499 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 2: long as you have relatives or whatever if you're from there. 500 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 2: So my point is that it's actually real, And what 501 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 2: you just pointed out is the biggest problem is the 502 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 2: secular Israelis are the one They're the backbone of the 503 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 2: Israeli economy and frankly of Israeli society. 504 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:27,679 Speaker 6: You know. 505 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:31,120 Speaker 2: The rest of them are basically just welfare you know, recipients. 506 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 3: They've decided that's an okay political bargain. 507 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 2: But you know, in the long run, I've always thought 508 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 2: it was very unstable and unsustainable. But after the war, 509 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 2: I just cannot imagine, you know, after World War Two, 510 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 2: like if you could consider, like if this nation state 511 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 2: survives if you had all the veterans coming back, but 512 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,719 Speaker 2: then you also had half of the population that not 513 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 2: only did not serve, but actively like was taking resources 514 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 2: away from the war effort. 515 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 3: I just can't imagine what that would look like. 516 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 2: Part of the reason we were so united is because 517 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 2: everybody had a role in the overall war efforts. So 518 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 2: I looked societally, I just have no idea how this. 519 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 2: I always thought this wasn't going to work, especially with 520 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 2: the birth rates and all that. It always seemed unsustainable. 521 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 2: But now I'm like, I have no idea how this 522 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 2: conservts survived. 523 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: And that's a real fisher In Israeli society is not like, oh, 524 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: how do we treat the Palestinians because it's a very 525 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:24,959 Speaker 1: small minority that cares about that whatsoever. It's this like 526 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 1: secular religious divide. 527 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean you can empathize, like, imagine if 528 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 2: fifty percent of the population or twenty five percent of 529 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 2: the population in the US were you know, conscientious objectors 530 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,400 Speaker 2: even more different, and not even that they were actively 531 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 2: like taking huge resources I mean from the state and 532 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 2: ruling politics through their overall population. 533 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: It's not analogous exactly, but if you think about like 534 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:50,919 Speaker 1: the divisions that were wrought that still exists in some 535 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: ways over the Vietnam War, and the fact that you 536 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 1: had you know, wealthier college kids like Donald by the way, 537 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 1: who were able to get out of service. And meanwhile 538 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: and and on college campuses. You also that's where you 539 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: have this anti war movement. And then you have people, 540 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: you know, more working class people who don't have that 541 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: option for their kids, like flee to Canada or get 542 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: some family doctor friend to say they have bone spurs 543 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: or or you know, get to ferment through college or whatever, 544 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: who are being chewed up and spit out and meet 545 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: the meat grinder that was Vietnam. And you know that 546 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: just that division created massive cleavages in American society. Like 547 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 1: I said that in some ways still remain to this day, 548 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 1: especially among older Americans. So in any case, there's no 549 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: doubt they're on the forefoot in terms of the amount 550 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: of death and destruction they're able to reak, and many 551 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 1: countries across the region they are operating with absolute impunity. 552 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: The US is not serving as it's not just not 553 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 1: serving as a check, but as actively enabling and encouraging 554 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: this direction, but there are also some deep societal fissures 555 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: and warning signs for the Israelis for the. 556 00:26:58,880 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 5: For the future. 557 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 1: That's right, let's go on and get to you. This 558 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 1: was very interesting Saga. You and Emily were flagging this. 559 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: There's a huge backlash to Fox News reporter Trey Yanks, 560 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: who has been on the ground in Israel and also 561 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 1: in Gaza, to you know, probably as much as any 562 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 1: Western reporter has, who issued a pretty compelling statement in 563 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,880 Speaker 1: favor of protection of Palestinian journalists. 564 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 5: Let's take a listen to what he had to say. 565 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 6: There are so many neighborhoods that are flattened. Palestinians that 566 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 6: are internally displaced will simply have no homes to return to. 567 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 3: And while we. 568 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 6: Get a first hand look at the destruction here, it's 569 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 6: important to remember that Palestinian journalists do not have this access. 570 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,919 Speaker 3: They have been pushed to the south. Dozens have been killed. 571 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 6: There's this false narrative about Palestinian journalists. More than one 572 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,679 Speaker 6: hundred of them have been killed by Israel since the 573 00:27:53,720 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 6: war began. And I take very few positions in the 574 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 6: conflicts that we covered, but let this be a position 575 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 6: that I take journalists, specifically Palestinian journalists must be protected 576 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 6: amid the war. The Israelis have killed journalists in drone strikes, 577 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 6: they've killed them with small arms fire, and it's unacceptable. 578 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 5: So soagrin. 579 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: This is one of those things that should be like 580 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 1: the least controversial thing ever, like don't kill the murder journalists, 581 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: including Palestinian journalists. But he's right that there's this false 582 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: narrative that exists of like, oh, well, if they're a 583 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: Palestinian and they got killed, they must have been a 584 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 1: terrorist if so facto, so we don't really care about 585 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: them and they don't even really count. So, you know, 586 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: kudos to him for saying it so clearly. There was 587 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: no equivocal language here, There was no you know, they're 588 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: being killed in blast. He directly said, Israel is killing 589 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: them in drone strikes, in these other methods, and they 590 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 1: deserve protection and we need to stop lying about who 591 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: these people are and actually stand up for journalists. 592 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 2: I'd actually shocked Fox let him put it on the air. 593 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 2: That's more what I was surprised about there. Yeah, I know, Treya, 594 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,959 Speaker 2: I started out with him, we covered the White House together. 595 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 3: I was our old friends. 596 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 2: I remember the day they got that job, and he 597 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 2: was so happy to become that foreign correspondent. 598 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 3: It's something that he always wanted to do. 599 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 2: And I think part of the reason that he's taken 600 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 2: this position not only from you know, having watched it 601 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 2: and becovered Israel for years before that. He probably knew 602 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 2: some of these folks just from reporting. He'd been inside 603 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 2: of Gaza and in West Bank multiple times before the war. 604 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 2: But he also was in Ukraine when his colleague Ben Wallace, remember, 605 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 2: was hit and actually lost his both of his legs, 606 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 2: you know, in that horrible strike. So he has been 607 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 2: present for the death and the maiming of his own colleagues, 608 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 2: and so I think he understands probably more than anybody else. 609 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 2: It's also disgusting to me how many people attacked him, 610 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 2: not only for the statement, but you know, being like, oh, 611 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 2: how many you know journalists or whatever of them are 612 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 2: actually terrorist, Like hey, why don't you strap on a 613 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 2: bulletproof vest and a helmet and you go into Gaza 614 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 2: like Trey actually has, and then you will can and 615 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 2: see it with your own eyes and then you can 616 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 2: make some comment not from New York City, and because 617 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 2: you went on a birthright trip once that you're a 618 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 2: freaking Israel expert, you know, on Palistin. And that's actually 619 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 2: why it annoys me so much, is like, you know, 620 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 2: like the day I said he's a political he does 621 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 2: his job, I think he does a pretty good job. 622 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 2: And you know, just such an anodyne statement, which again 623 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 2: he was just like, look, you can't do this.

Okay, this is like every 646 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 2: single you know reply to the thing. H yeah exactly. 647 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: So I think the one of the important takeaways here 648 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: is what you were pointing to Soccer, which is like 649 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 1: he's actually there. 650 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly, like he is there? What do you know? 651 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: And so all of the spin and the propaganda and 652 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: the bullshit that this all gets wrapped in when you're 653 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: sitting over here and watching from Afar, he does not 654 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: have the luxury of that distance exactly. And there's a 655 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: reason why journalists have had almost no access to the 656 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 1: Gaza strip, and it's because of exactly this. The more 657 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: images that are on our TV screens, the more reporters 658 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: you have that are strips of that luxury of distance 659 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 1: and spin and propaganda and you know, the dehumanization that 660 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: comes with it. The more that you get honest reporting, 661 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: even in an outlet like Fox News, like this, which is, 662 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: you know, what they're deathly afraid of. So at the 663 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: same time, you know, we've talked a lot about what's 664 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: happening in Lebanon, We've talked about this potent, you know, 665 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: very likely attack against Iran. 666 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 5: I don't want to. 667 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: Lose sight of the fact that they are actually ramping 668 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 1: up attacks in the Gaza strip, that they are appear 669 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: to be executing on that quote unquote General's plan to 670 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: once again displace everybody from northern Gaza. Remember this was 671 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 1: the very early phases of the war that this happened, 672 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: that people were forced down of ethnically cleansed out of 673 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: Gaza City and pushed further and further south. Now they're 674 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 1: basically going back to the beginning and once again saying like, 675 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: if you don't leave Gaza City and its environs, we 676 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: are going to assume that you are a terrorist and 677 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: you are a legitimate target. But at the same time, 678 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: even the people who are trying to flee are being 679 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: shot at and killed by the IDF. We have a 680 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 1: report here that we can bring you from Jeremy Diamond 681 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: from CNN. 682 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 5: Let's take a look at a little bit of that. 683 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 7: Civilians fleeing a war zone suddenly sprayed with bullets. The 684 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 7: Israeli military ordered these people to leave northern Gaza and 685 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 7: move south. With the hail of bullets they faced now 686 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 7: a testament to why so many are choosing not to 687 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 7: leave or simply cannot. Nine year old Danna is among 688 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 7: those wounded in the attack. A pink shirt smeared red 689 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 7: with her own blood after she was shot in the neck. 690 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 7: At the hospital, her mother said an Israeli drone opened 691 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 7: fire as they were fleeing south. The quad copter started 692 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 7: shooting intensively. She says, everyone was running. There were so 693 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 7: many bullets. Even my children's backpacks were full of bullets. 694 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:20,439 Speaker 7: The Israeli military decline to comment, but the attack came 695 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 7: as it ordered nearly all of northern Gaza to evacuate, 696 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 7: even as it says its renewed ground defensive is focused 697 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 7: on just one city, Jabalia, but many are trapped, like 698 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 7: fifteen year old Zam Zam. Anyone who hears my voice 699 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 7: help us, try to get us out, she pleads. She 700 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 7: says her mother was killed by Israeli forces. I watched 701 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 7: her take her last breaths, and I couldn't do anything, 702 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 7: she cries, so. 703 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: Just think about this set of circumstances. So the idea 704 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,320 Speaker 1: of is saying, if you're in almost all of northern Gaza, 705 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 1: you must evacuate. But then if you actually go to move, 706 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: you're being shot at and killed. So you're trapped in 707 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: northern Gaza even though you've been told to evacuate. And 708 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: the policy of the IDF after those force evacuations is 709 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:13,839 Speaker 1: then you're, you know, legitimate fair game. 710 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 5: You must be a terrorist if you stay. 711 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 1: So you've effectively, with your drones and your gunfire trap 712 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 1: people in northern Gaza and then turn them into a 713 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 1: legitimate targets. It's just a license for extermination, is exactly 714 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 1: what it is. 715 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's also noteworthy. 716 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,840 Speaker 2: Both Trey and Jeremy actually are in Israel. He's the 717 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 2: Jerusalem correspondent. So you know, again, I'm just going to 718 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,399 Speaker 2: take seriously what those guys actually think and say. 719 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 3: I covered the White House with both of them. 720 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 2: I think they're both like pretty credible, and I have 721 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 2: done a pretty good job on all of this, and 722 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 2: I think it's quite noteworthy, you know, to look at 723 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 2: theirs versus what Jake Tapper and Dana Bash might be 724 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:50,240 Speaker 2: saying here in Washington. 725 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 5: Very good points. 726 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 2: Let's get to the UFO update. Major new report from 727 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 2: journalist Michael Schellenberger. Let's put this up there. All this 728 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 2: everybody stick with me. The details are important. So new 729 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 2: government whistleblower reveals for the first time the quote the 730 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 2: name of an unacknowledged special access program for the unidentified 731 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 2: anomalist phenomenon. 732 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 3: Otherwise known as YOUAP. 733 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 2: So the name of that program is Immaculate Constellation. 734 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 3: Why does this matter? 735 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,399 Speaker 2: The name of the report named in the report by 736 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 2: this alleged government whistle blower is specifically the name of 737 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 2: the program for quote unquote UFO retrieval that was launched 738 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 2: after two thousand and seventeen. Now, to be clear, the 739 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:40,280 Speaker 2: Pentagon is denying the existence of said program. The Pentagon 740 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 2: said that they have no record of any program known 741 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 2: as Immaculate Constellation. I will get to in a second 742 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 2: why that matters and specifically why it is total bullshit. 743 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 2: But the reason why, if you look at the overall 744 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 2: existence of this is its centers on Congress. So people 745 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 2: will remember that I was at that UFO hearing which 746 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 2: was led by a multiple members of Congress. You had 747 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 2: the testimony of Dave Grush, who was the UFO whistle 748 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 2: blower about the existence of these programs that he had 749 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 2: seen and had gone and pushed through the Inspector General. 750 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 2: Well since then, what has since happened is more ramping 751 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 2: up crystal within Congress of questions specifically around the GRUSH allegations, 752 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:23,399 Speaker 2: the DoD and the Inspector General's report. Now what they 753 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 2: have found is basically blocking at every turn, and this 754 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 2: is from the Congressmen themselves. I believe that they are 755 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 2: trying to get another hearing in the works. But the 756 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,840 Speaker 2: point is is that this report and others like it 757 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 2: from Grush giving Congressional investigators and members of Congress the 758 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 2: ability to try and to search for very specific types 759 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,359 Speaker 2: of things through FOUA, through records requests, and by having 760 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:46,240 Speaker 2: names and others. 761 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:47,799 Speaker 3: It's very important to be able to dig. 762 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 2: The historical analogy I would use is the only reason 763 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 2: that we ever learned about many of the shenanigans that 764 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 2: the CIA and the FBI were up to under the 765 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 2: Church Committee was specifically because. 766 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 3: Not advocating this. 767 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 2: But it wouldn't be the worst thing if it happened, 768 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 2: is some people broke into a FBI facility and they 769 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,399 Speaker 2: stole these documents from them. We had the names from 770 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 2: the CIA programs like what happened with the Black Panthers, 771 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:16,160 Speaker 2: like the LSD experiments and all this stuff. And thus 772 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 2: the Church Committee and members of the press and others 773 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 2: were able to use FOYA to actually go and to 774 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 2: look for what all that was. If that had not happened, 775 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 2: there is no Church Committee and there's no revelation about 776 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 2: what happened. That's why the name of this program matters 777 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 2: a lot. 778 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 1: So yeah, so Ken Klippenstein has talked to me about 779 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 1: this before because he does a lot of Foyer requests. 780 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 1: And by the way, it's also obnoxious, like you have. 781 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:39,200 Speaker 5: To have a lawyer. 782 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:41,839 Speaker 1: It's not something that's a coordinary cit the center even 783 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: an ordinary journalist without like a legal backing behind them 784 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 1: can engage in because they'll just completely stonewall you. But 785 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 1: part of the key of a successful Foyer request is 786 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: you have to be able to ask very specifically for 787 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: what you want. And so if you don't know the 788 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 1: name of the program, you'll be phishing around and they 789 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 1: can just say, no, don't have anything that meets that. 790 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 1: And so that's why knowing the name of the program, 791 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: so that you can actually make an effective foroy a 792 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 1: request that they are legally obligated to fulfill in some 793 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,720 Speaker 1: manner after some period of like fighting you in courtant whatever. 794 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 5: That's why this is important to. 795 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 3: Take a decade. 796 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I want everybody to understand this is not 797 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:23,280 Speaker 2: all going to come out like immediately. 798 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 3: Now. 799 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 2: Michael actually was on the Joe Rogan podcast just yesterday 800 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:27,879 Speaker 2: he broke some of this down. 801 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:28,840 Speaker 3: Let's take a lesson. 802 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 8: In that report, they claim that there is a that 803 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 8: the Pentagon is illegally withholding information from Congress about a 804 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 8: secret UAP program, and that secret UAP program is considered 805 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 8: a parent program of other of other programs. But it's 806 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 8: called immaculate constellation. I was told by a I was 807 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 8: I had it confirmed by a second source that this 808 00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 8: is the name. 809 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 3: I also was. 810 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 8: Told that if we revealed the name that we would 811 00:39:57,760 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 8: probably fall it get under surveillance. 812 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 4: If I wanted to spread misinformation or disinformation, if I 813 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 4: was an intelligence agent, I think I would get someone 814 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 4: to be a whistleblower. I would sanction whistleblowers. I would 815 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 4: tell them go on podcasts, go on radio shows, go 816 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 4: on television and discuss all these different disclosures, and you 817 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 4: can't tell them everything, the top secret stuff. You know, 818 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 4: some stuff you got to keep a secret. Boy, I 819 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 4: wish I could tell you, But there's more I can't 820 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,360 Speaker 4: tell you. There's a lot going on. And that's a 821 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 4: really good way. I would think if I was in 822 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 4: control of a narrative, that I wanted to be continuously slippery, 823 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 4: like this is a very slippery conversation, like you never 824 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:42,360 Speaker 4: get to the end of it. 825 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:43,600 Speaker 8: And what would be the motivation? 826 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 4: Because there's some sort of a program that exists that 827 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 4: they want to hide, and the best way to hide 828 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:56,359 Speaker 4: it is to continually bring up and then debunk these 829 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 4: fake programs. 830 00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 8: I'm comfortable saying I'm like ninety nine percent that the 831 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 8: government is hiding information. Okay, So, and the reason I'm 832 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 8: so confident of that is because Donald Trump said so 833 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 8: multiple times that they're hiding information. When I signed him 834 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:14,439 Speaker 8: in the article. 835 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 4: They probably told him that. And also they lied to 836 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 4: him about a bunch of stuff. Oh sure, didn't even 837 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 4: tell him about Chinese drones because they were he was 838 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 4: going to shoot him down. 839 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:23,400 Speaker 8: So they told him something that he says has not 840 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,439 Speaker 8: been made public to the Arian people. So so if 841 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,360 Speaker 8: that's so my view is, look, if you think it's 842 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 8: it's either a secret weapons program, that it's a government 843 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 8: disinformation program, that it's just mis sightings, then I want 844 00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 8: the government. I wanted they have an obligation. 845 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:40,800 Speaker 3: To tell us. 846 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that it's a good pushback. But anyway, I'll 847 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 2: get to a little bit now. Remember when I said 848 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,879 Speaker 2: that they had no record of the Immaculate Constellation. 849 00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:51,360 Speaker 3: That's what the DoD is claiming. 850 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 2: Get this, So when Dave Grush came forward in twenty 851 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 2: twenty three and this Google trend should not exist, it 852 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,720 Speaker 2: just so happened that there was a massive the spike 853 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 2: of people searching Immaculate Constellation right next to Wright Patterson 854 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 2: Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio. So again, this is 855 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 2: a term which nobody knows. Nobody's out there searching Immaculate Constellation. 856 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 2: What they were worried about was that the name of 857 00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 2: that program had been leaked under Grush and they were 858 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 2: searching those people around that area for the name Immaculate Constellation. WHOA, 859 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 2: it's so suddenly and shockingly appears there in Dayton, Ohio. 860 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 2: So I think that's evidence there of something going on 861 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 2: for why we're why were so many people right around 862 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 2: this Air Force bace just searching for this miraculously, especially 863 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 2: a base. 864 00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 3: That's well known within that. 865 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 2: I think what this does is it gives us a 866 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 2: quiver into something to actually for Congress to begin looking into. 867 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:45,400 Speaker 3: And that's part of the problem. 868 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:47,799 Speaker 2: And I understand, I guess where Joe is coming from, 869 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 2: but he needs to understand what pressure that Grush himself 870 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 2: is already under. I mean, the guy's life is being 871 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 2: investigated to high hell by the US government, basically lost 872 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,320 Speaker 2: his job. There is no incentive for a lot of 873 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 2: these people to come out. 874 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,359 Speaker 5: Additionally, yeah, there's a lot of incentive to not come out. 875 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. 876 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 3: No, Yeah, they're destroying him. 877 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 2: I mean, remember they leaked that whole thing about his 878 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 2: PTSD incident and all that. Like, he has talked about 879 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,160 Speaker 2: having threats to his life. I don't know if it's 880 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 2: true or not, but that's what he says. But in general, 881 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 2: like his career has not gone well as a result 882 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:21,600 Speaker 2: of it. It's not like it has been good for 883 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 2: his personal life. Additionally, I think what it says is 884 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 2: somebody was explaining this to me, was that previously one 885 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 2: of the reasons that that UFO legislation had gone down. 886 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 2: The USAP Disclosure Act was so pressured by the intelligence 887 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 2: community was specifically to stop them from the ability to 888 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 2: uncover the very special ass program that exists. Like right 889 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 2: here and now, for everybody out there, I get it. 890 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 2: Everyone keeps saying, oh, it's coming, is coming, it is coming, 891 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 2: et cetera. I totally understand, but you have to remember 892 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 2: what the I mean. We just had Jefferson Morley on 893 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 2: about JFK. It's been sixty years and we still don't know. 894 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 2: You know, if you think about it. There were all 895 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 2: these conspiracy theories in the nineteen fifties of people who 896 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,439 Speaker 2: were saying the CIA has brothels where they're drugging people 897 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 2: and people are like, you're crazy, Like. 898 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 3: What's wrong with you? 899 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,479 Speaker 2: Twenty five years later, you're like, oh, actually, not only 900 00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,239 Speaker 2: was he totally right, it's way crazier than you could 901 00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 2: have ever imagined. If I had told somebody in the 902 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 2: street in America the CIA wanted to blow up Castro 903 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 2: with the cigar, I they would have said you are 904 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 2: out of your mind, or or make it wear though. 905 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:31,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true, these are real. This actually happened. 906 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,960 Speaker 2: If I go back to the Spanish American War or whatever, 907 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 2: and I was like, wait, maybe it's America that blew 908 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 2: up the USS main again hanged for treason. Never would 909 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 2: have happened one hundred years later. What do we know 910 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 2: it's true or it's probably true. So like I'm just 911 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:48,760 Speaker 2: saying for the incredible incredul increduluity and just the way 912 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 2: that people think about like, oh, it's just taking a 913 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:51,800 Speaker 2: long time. 914 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,319 Speaker 3: You know, it's not that easy when the government. 915 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 2: Wants to keep a secret, especially a very very tightly 916 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:58,640 Speaker 2: held one, you know here, it's they can't do it, 917 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 2: and it can take a quiet tightn I efforts on 918 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 2: behalf of the public to even you know, inch forward 919 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:04,239 Speaker 2: to getting it. 920 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 3: That's all I would say. 921 00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 5: We'll see, Yeah, we'll see. 922 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 3: I want to see. It's gonna take a while. 923 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 2: By the way, Congress, you know, after this whole election 924 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:13,880 Speaker 2: nonsense is up, let's get back and let's. 925 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 3: Get to work. 926 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,960 Speaker 1: Hey, Trump, if he knows all this stuff, like, brother, 927 00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,920 Speaker 1: you're already in trouble with the law, you may as well, 928 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:20,880 Speaker 1: you're already in trouble for classified documents. 929 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 5: May as well, just like let the people American people know. 930 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 2: If he becomes president, he should just immediately you know, sign. 931 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 5: All yeah, I mean last time. 932 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 3: Well, last time around. 933 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,399 Speaker 2: You and Mike POMPEII own his ear famously, especially about 934 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 2: the JFK thing. We're talking about this with Jefferson Morley 935 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:36,760 Speaker 2: and they're like, oh, you just can't let the public, 936 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 2: you know, know any of this stuff, and I think 937 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 2: it's just look, it is crazy Obama Trump. I mean 938 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 2: remember what Obama said. He was like, yeah, you know, 939 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 2: it's uh. He's like, he's like, there's some things that 940 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 2: are out there, but we couldn't release it to the public. 941 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 3: He said something along those lines. 942 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,400 Speaker 2: John Podesta I always talked about this, who was the 943 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:57,000 Speaker 2: chief of staff to Bill Clinton in the White House, 944 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,680 Speaker 2: Huge UFO guy. He tried for years to get the 945 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 2: CIA and others to tell him about these programs. And 946 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 2: he was the White House chief of staff with Yankee 947 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,800 Speaker 2: White security clearance, and they blocked him out completely. 948 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 1: So just evan, someone should ask Joe Biden about this 949 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:15,360 Speaker 1: and maybe maybe his half cooked brain will not realize 950 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 1: that he shouldn't be. 951 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,439 Speaker 5: Saying what it wouldn't even tell by accidentally. 952 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:20,719 Speaker 2: Biden is the ideal president for them. They're like, oh, 953 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 2: what a joke you know. It's like in the UK 954 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:24,879 Speaker 2: they have a joke called yes Minister, where the deep 955 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 2: state basically over there just jokes that the you know, 956 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,759 Speaker 2: whoever's in this yokal, who's in charge, the political guy, 957 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,319 Speaker 2: They're like, forget about it. We've seen fifty of them 958 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,240 Speaker 2: come and go. So for them, Biden is the ideal 959 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 2: president in terms of who you can just hoodwink the 960 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:39,840 Speaker 2: entire time. All Right, thank you guys for indulging that. 961 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:40,799 Speaker 3: We will. 962 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 2: If there's any breaking news over the weekend, we'll see you.
