This is the year that this hat is 29 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 5: no longer controversial. The hat is not edgy, the hat 30 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 5: is not provocative, it doesn't even mean anything. This hat 31 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 5: is dead. This hat is dead now metaphorically speaking. And 32 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,639 Speaker 5: this is the future. And let's look at the ledger. 33 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,759 Speaker 5: On the side of MAGA, you have Lindsey Graham, Ben Shapiro, 34 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 5: Marco Rubio, Randy Fine, Mark Levin. Apparently all of that 35 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 5: is MAGA together. They support war with Iran, Chinese students 36 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 5: and b visas, three hundred thousand deportations all year. 37 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: And then on the. 38 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 5: Other side, apparently what is not MAGA, what is kicked 39 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 5: out of MAGA, wacky crazy haters, Republican haters, democrats, third worldists. 40 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 5: You got Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Green, Thomas Massey, Andrew Tate, 41 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 5: Nick Flentis, Alex Jones, you got all these people on 42 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 5: the other side in favor of America. First, mass deportations, 43 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 5: no foreign students, no foreign workers, no war with Iran, 44 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 5: no war with Russia in Ukraine. What has become of 45 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 5: the movement. It's been inverted and it is now dead. 46 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 5: This coming Monday, and I said, fuck Islam. I said, 47 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 5: these Muslims need to go home. 48 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: Fuck them. 49 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 5: They're barbarians. Their third world is they like to live 50 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 5: in open sewage and bomb crap. You think any conservative 51 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 5: would disavow me, any of them, any Republican? You think 52 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 5: if I was known for saying that, do you think 53 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 5: I would have any trouble getting into Seapack or the 54 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 5: New York Young Republican Club GWA or the GOP. 55 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: Of course not. 56 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 5: Because Laura Lumer has access to the White House and 57 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 5: she says stuff like that. Ben Shapiro has access to 58 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 5: Trump and he says stuff like that. 59 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 2: I mean he's got a point. Doesn't mean that, right, 60 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 2: Listen and listen. I want people to be totally clear 61 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: because Nick Fuentes is trying to whitewash his image right 62 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 2: now and is being sanitized with the help of any 63 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 2: number of podcast hosts, but Tucker Carlson being one of them. 64 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 2: This is a man who says he loves thinks Hitler 65 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: is cool and denies a Holocaust and is an avowed racist, 66 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 2: hates Jews, but all sorts of other ethnic groups as well. 67 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: But he's completely correct there at the end when he says, 68 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 2: you know what, if I said all the things that 69 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: I say, if I said the things that Randy Fine 70 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 2: says and Laura Lumer says about how Muslims are discussed 71 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: and they're savages and they all need to be deported 72 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 2: and it's a horror show, it would be no problem. 73 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 2: So you are not going to be able to draw 74 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 2: the line, Like if all that hateful shit is fine 75 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 2: for all these other groups, you're not going to be 76 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: able to draw the line when it comes to Jewish people. 77 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 2: And he's one hundred percent correct about that. You know, 78 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 2: I also think, like I'm curious to your view though 79 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: on his assertion that effectively Maga is dead. I think 80 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 2: that in a sense he's correct about that, and the 81 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 2: fact that they have completely compromised any sort of moral 82 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 2: credibility that could possibly have in order to gatekeep a 83 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,799 Speaker 2: character who's an avert like Neo Dotzi, like Nick Fuentes. 84 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 2: I mean, these people support a genocide. They're you know, 85 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 2: they are implementing a refugee policy that is whites only. 86 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: They're doing mass racial profiling of Latinos, including Latino American citizens, 87 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: across the country. They're sending people to Seacott And you 88 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: think you're going to have any sort of moral standing 89 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,679 Speaker 2: to then be like, here's where we draw the line. 90 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 4: It's ridiculous. 91 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 3: I think that on the Israel issues where it's the 92 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 3: cleanest headshot. And this is also why this entire conversation 93 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 3: about trying it's like, oh, they must disavow. It's like, guys, 94 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 3: nobody more embodies no enemies to the right more than 95 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 3: the Zionist right. You can say literally anything about dual 96 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 3: loyalty for Muslims, about wanting Palestinian children to starve in Gaza, 97 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 3: about wanting and having joy, which they here's the thing 98 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 3: they say, all this shit. They're like, I get joy 99 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 3: when I see Palestinian children, you know, being killed and 100 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 3: God one of the people who has been openly going 101 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 3: after the Heritage Foundation has been increasingly making fun of 102 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 3: Palestinian women and children who are intense in Gaza, who 103 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 3: are being flooded by you know, more recent reigns, which 104 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 3: obviously is a mass spreader of disease, So you want 105 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 3: the moral authority to tone police what is or is? 106 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 3: I mean, it's like again, you know, I can't possibly 107 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 3: be lectured by the likes of Randy Fine, who said 108 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 3: he wants to New Kagaza. It's like, dude, you are 109 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 3: literally openly celebratory of deaths of women and children. And 110 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,599 Speaker 3: the same standard that you want applied to rhetoric against 111 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 3: Jews is ones that you directly use against Muslims, not 112 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 3: even really just Muslims, because it's really just anybody who 113 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 3: you disagree with period. They most openly, you know, go 114 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 3: after Muslims. So in what and by the way, then 115 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 3: also you know they talk about damage and about how 116 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 3: hurtful and hateful rhetoric and all that is. Who has 117 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 3: the most power, Who has the most power The people 118 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 3: who have openly cheered on the deaths of women and 119 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 3: of children of funding you know, much of what is 120 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 3: going on there of directing US policy. So it's very 121 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 3: obvious that you know, if you look at actually has 122 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 3: been the most harmed by hurtful rhetoric, it's you, like 123 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 3: you're the biggest people for mass murder. And yeah, I mean, 124 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 3: look on the MAGA being dead point. We have counted 125 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 3: out Trump before, and that's why I don't I mean, 126 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 3: look back in after January sixth, you could have made 127 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: a good case that people were going to move on. 128 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: Didn't work. Right. 129 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 3: Not only just won the nomination, he won the election 130 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 3: by popular vote. Right, So I'm not ready to just 131 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 3: sit here and discount their own political talent because they've 132 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 3: pulled many, many rabbits out of a hat before. Now, 133 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 3: whenever it does come to the Israel issue, and specifically 134 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 3: with the current fight that is happening right now, this 135 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 3: is something where you cannot both sides it, and I 136 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 3: think that perhaps is where he is most correct in 137 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 3: terms of it is Rubio, It is Laura Lumer, Mark Levin, 138 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 3: the pro Israel crowd which have most directly hitched their 139 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 3: wagon to Donald Trump, and more directly, they're making it 140 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 3: the direct litmus test for twenty twenty eight. Now the 141 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 3: anti Israel right, or I guess the pro America right, 142 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 3: is also doing the same thing. Part of the reason 143 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 3: that that Tucker Fuentes interview happened, I believe I have 144 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 3: no inside information, is genuinely to force a choice for 145 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 3: a lot of people who are in the American right 146 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 3: wing to be like, Okay, well what do we find 147 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 3: most offensive about what's happening here? And you know, like 148 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 3: you said, look, I mean god, you know. You know, Nick, 149 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 3: he's a very very smart guy in terms of calibrating 150 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 3: a lot of his language now currently to be the 151 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 3: most appealing to mass audience in the hopes that a 152 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 3: lot of people may forget. However, for all the people 153 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 3: who complain about him, as I have said here before, 154 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 3: he literally was working on the Kanye West campaign he 155 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 3: was dead irrelevant in a joke back in twenty twenty 156 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 3: three October seventh, resurrected his entire image because he had 157 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 3: something to criticize, to expose, and to fight against. And 158 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 3: that's part of the reason that he is in the 159 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 3: prominent position of where he is right now. And that's 160 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 3: entirely a creation, I believe, of the Zionist right and 161 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 3: of the way that they've handled themselves over the last 162 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 3: two years. It's one where if they correctly see them 163 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 3: as a threat, but they are the mirror image in 164 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 3: a lot of ways rhetorically and into the effect also 165 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 3: of destroying Maga Israel is Destroying Maga Israel, is destroying 166 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 3: the Republican Party. It already destroyed the Democratic Party. It's 167 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 3: destroying much of the Republican Party because it's about generational lines, 168 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 3: and it's not just about the actions in kaza. It's 169 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 3: fundamentally a question of who do you work for and 170 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 3: who do you care about the most? If you care 171 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 3: about this foreign nation at the expense of ours, which 172 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 3: you can directly say about Islam, but you're not capable 173 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 3: of saying it about this, well, you're a hypocrite and 174 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 3: you're the people with all the power you're directly it 175 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 3: appears you know, this is the one issue in which 176 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 3: you're willing to compromise all of your principles. 177 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: That's what makes people go crazy. 178 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 6: You know. 179 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 3: I read that quote from Tire. You may not have 180 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 3: seen it. There's a long piece and in your Times 181 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 3: about Tucker Carlson. What he says there is is he 182 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 3: was like, I was truly shocked to find out that 183 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 3: many of the Republicans who I have been friends with 184 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 3: and others do not care nearly as much about free 185 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,319 Speaker 3: speech as they allegedly, you know, pretended to over the 186 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 3: last ten years. 187 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: I feel that way too. 188 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 3: I mean, I actually do feel more galled by a 189 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 3: Ben Shapiro or by I mean a myriad of other 190 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 3: right wing figures. The Trump administration to not only run 191 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 3: on a position of free speech, to you know, be 192 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 3: against the woke left and to say that this is 193 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 3: bad and anti American, and then to come into office 194 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 3: and directly use, you know, anti free speech measures to 195 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 3: shut down descent again over an issue, you know, of 196 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 3: a foreign country like That's why the Israel issue resonates 197 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 3: is because it's the one where people are willing to 198 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 3: compromise everything that they've ever said before in order to 199 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 3: act seemingly on behalf of this foreign power. And it's 200 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 3: what gives the cleanest hit to a Nick fuintest to 201 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 3: anybody else. And so in my opinion, you know, they 202 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 3: have nobody but themselves to blame. Why should we listen 203 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 3: to you about tone policing. 204 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: We can't. I can't deal with it. 205 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 2: I mean, as I think it would be ideal if 206 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 2: you had two political parties that both were able to 207 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 2: gatekeep actual neo Nazis. But when you have you know, 208 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: I mean listen on the on the democratic side, why 209 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 2: was Israel such a problem for democratic leadership. It's because 210 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 2: it exposed the hypocrisy of their of the distance between 211 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 2: their rhetoric about human rights right and these like humanity, 212 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 2: liberal international humanitarian values and claiming to care about democracy 213 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 2: and international on all these things, and then an active 214 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 2: genocide and they just, you know, the base looked at 215 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 2: that and it's like, this is disgusting, Like we actually 216 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 2: do believe in these international human rights values, like we 217 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 2: actually believe people should have equal rights, and we shouldn't 218 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 2: support ethno states and apartheid and genocide, and we cannot 219 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 2: understand why you would be such incredible, disgusting, murderous hypocrites 220 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 2: when it comes to this, you know, on the right 221 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 2: to go a level deeper even than in Israel. MAGA 222 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 2: is increasingly centered around Christian nationalism. So it's okay for 223 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 2: you to then say, okay, well, the Muslims have to go, 224 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 2: and the Hindus are disgusting and they have to go, 225 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 2: But no, no, no, we're to draw the line and 226 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 2: we're going to protect You can't say anything hateful about 227 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 2: Jewish people, Nick Fuentez, is the logical conclusion of the 228 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: philosophy that they have centered within the MAGA movement. Increasingly 229 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 2: centered within the MAGA movement, so when he says MAGA 230 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: is dead. I think he's absolutely right, because he is 231 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 2: part of he is like the logical end state of 232 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 2: MAGA and the fact that he is critical of. 233 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 4: Them from the right. 234 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 2: And you have Trump, who is incredibly weak at this point, 235 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 2: who just took this electoral shalacking, who is a lame duck, 236 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 2: who is an old man increasingly looking like an old man, 237 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 2: falling asleep in meetings, falling asleep while he's standing up 238 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 2: at wei White House events, whose lost control of his 239 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 2: own political party, can't even get them to vote his 240 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 2: way on the Epstein Valles as a completely one eighty. 241 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 2: Everyone is jockeying for what is going to come after Trump, 242 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 2: and so through the fact of his political weakness and 243 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 2: the exposing of the ideological fissures, flaws, hypocrisies and lies 244 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 2: of this sort of core MAGA ideology, I think Fuentes 245 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,439 Speaker 2: is absolutely right. And you know, you can already see 246 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 2: and this is part of what's happening with Marjorie Taylor Green, 247 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 2: part of what's happening with Thomas Massey, part of what's 248 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 2: happening with Ted Kruz. You can see everyone starting to 249 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 2: jockey and JD Vance obviously is starting to jockey for 250 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 2: what is going to be next. This administration is already 251 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 2: a failure. You know, there's nothing Trump could do at 252 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 2: this point to like pull a rabbit out of the 253 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 2: hat and totally. 254 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 4: Remake the economy. 255 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 2: The economy is going in headed south and probably only 256 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 2: going to get worse. None of his fifty year mortgage 257 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 2: ideas are going to pull it out of the tailspin. 258 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: They're betting massively on AI technology that's going to replace 259 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 2: you know, millions of workers in their ideal, Like the 260 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 2: whole thing is completely bankrupt and is increasingly exposed as so, 261 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 2: so you know, I listen, I've been wrong about Trump before. 262 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 2: I thought he would lose Ta Kamala, you know, so 263 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,439 Speaker 2: people should take my words with a grain of salt. 264 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 4: I've been wrong in the past, There's no doubt about it. 265 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: But I have never seen this level of weakness in 266 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: the coalition, this level of genuine sort of like foundational fissures. 267 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 2: And I've never seen someone from within the movement be 268 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 2: able to go up against Trump and get the better 269 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 2: of him. And now we have effectively like multiple people 270 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 2: who are able to do that and pull it off. 271 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Look, let's talk about Mago right again, 272 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 3: about what you were saying. Now, I mean, I think 273 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 3: that's a convenient left explanation because one of the things 274 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 3: that they dream about is that anybody who is opposed 275 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 3: to immigration is racist, right. I mean, that's literally kind 276 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 3: of been the talking point now for over a decade 277 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 3: about Trump. I personally did not believe that, and I 278 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 3: don't think that a lot of people believe that either. 279 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 3: Who supported Trump in the twenty twenty four election, people 280 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 3: wanted less chaos. There are legitimate, you know, no on 281 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 3: racial arguments to make about immigration restriction. There are a 282 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 3: lot also to make, let's say, even about Israel, anti Semitism, 283 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 3: about nationalism itself, and we talk about the intellectual airs 284 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 3: of American nationalism. Back to the early days, let's say, 285 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 3: with the Progressive Party under Theodore Roosevelt, there was an 286 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 3: explicit element specifically to fight against know nothings and the 287 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 3: other strain of racialism and anti Catholicism that was in 288 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 3: the right and instead to make it about the nation 289 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 3: centered in itself, to include the Irishman and the Scotsman. 290 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 3: As long as people were able to forego, you know, 291 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 3: their attachments to foreign nations and to buy into a 292 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 3: national civic project like you know, you're saying that's what. 293 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: Mago's alway about. I don't believe that. 294 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 3: I actually don't believe that that's really what a lot 295 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 3: of the people who voted for Trump and believed, you know, 296 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 3: America First itself as an ideology itself. Now, I think 297 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 3: Fwent does likes Magot to be this because that's what 298 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 3: he wants, right And part of what Trump has always 299 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 3: done is he's been kind of a rorshack test where 300 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 3: you could see civic nationalism if you want, you could 301 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 3: also see overt racialism if you want to. Some of 302 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 3: the actions of the administration, you know, don't necessarily make 303 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 3: the case you know that I'm making here, And that's 304 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 3: where that becomes the logical endpoint where when you start 305 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 3: to use free speech, you know, to go after people 306 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 3: who are criticizing Israel, when you are overtly just not 307 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 3: really allowing, you know, ethnocentrism itself to be a primary 308 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 3: argument for immigration instead of anything economic or to be 309 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 3: to your own benefit. That is where it validates some 310 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 3: of the Maga like of that you're talking about, one 311 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 3: that I've personally been trying to, you know, go fight 312 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 3: against now for ten years. But I'm not going to 313 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 3: sit here and say that I have been successful. I 314 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 3: think that that movement itself about competence, about civic nationalism, 315 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 3: which again I still believe validated. In twenty twenty four election, 316 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 3: a lot of people were actually on board with that 317 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 3: vision and they did win the popular vote, first time 318 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 3: Republican has done it since two thousand and four. That 319 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 3: is an extraordinary achievement. All of this is to be 320 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 3: said here is that if they want to go down 321 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 3: the rabbit hole of people who vote for Mamdani or 322 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 3: socialist Muslims, and that Mamdanni itself socialist Muslim needs to 323 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 3: be denaturalized, be deported, then don't be surprised when the 324 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 3: other side of that coin is going to be exposed. 325 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 3: When we got to start talking about do a loyalty 326 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 3: and about foreign you know, about being behold into foreign 327 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 3: ideologies or any of that, you cannot gatekeep in that, 328 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 3: you know, the better option is to basically embrace everybody 329 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 3: on the terms as Americans and to debate. 330 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: But that's not what they've chosen to do. 331 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 3: And that's also why, you know, that's why if you 332 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 3: accept that framing which the many current modern Republicans do, 333 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 3: which is to make it about foreign entanglements when it 334 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 3: comes to a Zorn Mamdani and not instead about the 335 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 3: campaign issue and the campaign related stuff itself for why 336 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 3: a lot of people voted for it, let's say, on affordability. 337 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 3: Then you do go down the ethnic rabbit hole, which 338 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 3: is to his direct benefit. 339 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,200 Speaker 1: That's what he wants more than anything. 340 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, he's it's ironic because he's talking 341 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 3: there about if I said this about most It's like, dude, 342 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure you have said all of Muslims number one, but. 343 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 2: Number two, you like, it's not like he's some lover 344 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:20,719 Speaker 2: of Arab Sermuslims and ery what. 345 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 1: Look. 346 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 3: Let me also say, I know I'm not a great 347 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 3: you know fan. I mean, I've I've made plenty of 348 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 3: comments here, and I think it's totally legitimate to talk 349 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 3: about Islamic migration or anything. 350 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 1: I will talk that all. 351 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 3: Day long, as long as as long as what we're 352 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 3: trying to strive for is American values and a non 353 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 3: racialized view of the world. 354 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: Okay, that's very different. 355 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 3: But what they celebrate openly is this discussion of you know, 356 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 3: about what they celebrate openly, is this, this framework explicitly 357 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 3: around America must be a you know, Christian white name, 358 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 3: which a lot of the Islamic stuff kind of basically 359 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 3: you know, you know, tacitly embraces. 360 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: They just have a Jewish carve out for it. 361 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 3: And he's like, well, no, I don't want that Jewish 362 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 3: carve out too, So then you can't be surprised when 363 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 3: this happens, right, So in a lot of ways, you know, 364 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 3: you have your own you have only yourselves to blame. 365 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 3: And this is really where Richard Hanania, you know, I 366 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 3: have to give credit. Where do his Abeliophile defense notwithstanding 367 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 3: is which he docs has recently taken up as a cause. 368 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 3: What he says is about the groyperization of a lot 369 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 3: of Republican politics is if you openly embrace denaturalized deport 370 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 3: type rhetoric about anybody who opposes you, then it's not 371 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 3: an accident that some fuintez anti literally anti Jewish is 372 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 3: going to be openly embraced within that framework, because that 373 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 3: is the endpoint. And if that's the choice, well I 374 00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 3: think it's pretty bad and I'm out of it. 375 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it. It reminds and I don't remember 376 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 2: who said this. It might have been Actually it might 377 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 2: have been Hynnania. I'm not sure, but it reminds in 378 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 2: a sense of the rise of Trump, where you know, 379 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 2: people Fox News. 380 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 4: Or the George W. 381 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 2: Bush Republican Party would flirt with rhetoric, but he would 382 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 2: come out and say it more directly and so increasingly, 383 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 2: especially in Trump two point zero, with Stephen Miller being 384 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 2: such a central figure who is a blood and soil 385 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 2: white nationalist like once, the Ethno state is you know, 386 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 2: quite upfront about that, and that is his ideological project, 387 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 2: and it drives him day and night when you have 388 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 2: him in charge, and you have the DHS posting the 389 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 2: way they are and the videos and the social media 390 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 2: content that they put out, and the way that they 391 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 2: conduct themselves and the things that they say, And yes, 392 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 2: Laura Lumer being a close advisor and describing yourself as 393 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 2: a proud Islamophobe who is just openly racist, you have 394 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 2: embraced a racialist view of the world. That is your view, 395 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 2: That is the policy you're implementing. That is a lot 396 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 2: of the communications that are coming out. But you aren't 397 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 2: going that next step of being quite as overt or frankly, 398 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 2: quite as consistent as Nick fuent Has is. Nick fuentt 399 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 2: Has says, yes, I am an overt racialist. Yes, I 400 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 2: want this country to be for white Christians. That's what 401 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 2: we should have. And guess what, Jews are not white Christians. 402 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 4: So they're out. 403 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 2: So he is taking the more overt consistent view of 404 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 2: the ideological project that they set in motion. Now I'm 405 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 2: not I think that my own view is that you're right, Soccer. 406 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 2: I don't think that some many of the people who 407 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 2: voted for Trump. I don't think that they want an 408 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 2: overtly like neo nazi, outright racist party. I think that 409 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 2: there are many people who voted for Trump who are 410 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 2: going to be repelled by that. But that is sort 411 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 2: of that is what they have set in motion. That 412 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 2: is the logical endpoint of the ideology that, especially in 413 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 2: Trump two point zero, they have put in place and heavily, 414 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 2: heavily flirted with. So that's why I think, you know, 415 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 2: when I say I think he's right that Maggot is 416 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 2: dead because Nick Fontes and others. But Nick fuont Has 417 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 2: is sort of forcing a choosing, He's forcing a divibe. 418 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 4: He's forcing a choosing. 419 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 2: Are you going to be this overtly racialist, white nationalist 420 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 2: ethno state, blood and soil project. 421 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 4: Are you going to do that? 422 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 2: And are you going to be consistent about it even 423 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 2: when it comes to the Jews and there aren't going 424 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 2: to be any sacred ethnicities or religions or you know, 425 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 2: of sacred cows. Everybody's on the table. Or are you 426 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 2: going to be you know, some sort of a some 427 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 2: sort of a squish and believe everybody should have equal 428 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 2: rights and that we should live together in this sort 429 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 2: of like pluralistic democratic project that you know has been 430 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 2: imperfectly practiced in the US for many years. He is 431 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 2: forcing a choosing, and that's why I think when that 432 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 2: plus Trump's political weakness and like being a lame dunk 433 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 2: in all of that sort of stuff, is why I 434 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:16,360 Speaker 2: think he fundamentally is correct about MAGA being broken apart 435 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: and being dead and not meaning anything. And now people 436 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 2: are going to have to pick sides of where they are, 437 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 2: and you know, picking the Ben Shapiro side of it's 438 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 2: fine to hate everybody except the Jews. I don't think 439 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 2: that that's going to be a sustainable place to continue 440 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 2: to stand. 441 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 3: No it's not a sustainable place, and that is ultimately 442 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 3: what is fracturing all of this. You can't support a 443 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 3: literal Jewish ethno state and overtly to the point where 444 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 3: you're willing to sacrifice all of your American principles and 445 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 3: then say no, we shouldn't have an ethno state here. 446 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,399 Speaker 3: You're like, come on, okay, I mean, it's just so ridiculous, 447 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 3: and this is part of what is broken down a lot. 448 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 3: I mean, look, I find it really tragic. I think 449 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 3: it's bad, you know, and I think that I think 450 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,120 Speaker 3: it's really grim because what they don't understand is that 451 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 3: their embrace of Israel has led to this embrace now 452 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 3: overt racialism. They also don't understand that for a lot 453 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 3: of people. Let's say, if you're younger, you're twenty two, 454 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 3: you know, and you're just getting into politics, you haven't 455 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 3: you know, Crystal, You and I have been aware of 456 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,440 Speaker 3: fuintes and grew up a phenomenon or whatever for eight years, right, 457 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 3: so we remember a lot of the past, But they don't. 458 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: They actually have no idea. 459 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 3: They don't you know, they currently see Oh this is 460 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 3: very reasonable, of course, Oh calling out Trump, Well, yeah, 461 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 3: if that's the tact that we believe that we should 462 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 3: fully take it, you know, in this direction. And so 463 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 3: I fully understand how disgruntled and especially people who love 464 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 3: degenerate activity and are seething coping with the variety of 465 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 3: vices of which everybody knows that I hate, and you 466 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 3: embrace hateful politics, especially also in the age of large 467 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 3: unimp deployment and inability to meet a spouse, you're fully 468 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 3: addicted to pornography, phone, You're really in a place where 469 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 3: it does not seem society wants to help you. I 470 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,719 Speaker 3: can always intellectually understand, as I have read many books 471 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 3: of previous countries where this has happened, how this can 472 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 3: go down that direction. I don't think that that is 473 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 3: an embrace of that. I think we can just all 474 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:28,919 Speaker 3: simply understand that radical politics are a logical consequence of 475 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 3: the current conditions that we currently that we live in. 476 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 3: Part of the reason why I attack those conditions vehemently, 477 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 3: part of the reason why we talk about AI and 478 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 3: many of these other phenomena. But the problem too for 479 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 3: the Republicans is they're not really trying to address many 480 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 3: of those issues I just described as well. If anything, 481 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 3: you're probably making it worse with a lot of the 482 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 3: rise of AI. 483 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 1: So in a multi kind. 484 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 3: Of factorial way, I always look at who's in power, 485 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 3: who is to blame. 486 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: I think they're the ones to blame. Now, you know, 487 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 1: people have agency. 488 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 3: If you're going to say overtly racist shit, be openly 489 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 3: anti Semitic, yeah, screw you. Okay, you know, nobody is 490 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 3: absolving people who hold those views. But it's also not 491 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 3: difficult to see how that it could be a logical 492 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 3: endpoint for how you end up in this right now. 493 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 3: And you know, Charlie Kirk saw that coming with a 494 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 3: lot of the Israel stuff that they were dealing with 495 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 3: over at TPUSA. It's a problem now for the entire 496 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 3: not just Republican Party. That's just a problem for the 497 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 3: nation broadly, because you know, like you were saying about 498 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 3: norms and gatekeeping, if you're willing to blow gatekeeping institutions, 499 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 3: rhetoric and all of that on behalf of a foreign 500 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 3: government for Israel, then you, in my opinion again, are 501 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 3: the person then who opened up the so called gates 502 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 3: to every you know, crazy person in America. So, because 503 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 3: you have no moral authority anymore, you have to restore 504 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 3: some sort of moral authority and civic understanding between people 505 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 3: so that we can all reagree kind of on what 506 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 3: guardrails and all that were. That's part of the reason 507 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 3: I hate the mainstream media right is because I'm like, listen, 508 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 3: I know, yeah, independent media is in some great bastion, 509 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 3: But I thought that some of the norms and the 510 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 3: things that they find offensive whatever are horrible and aren't bad. 511 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 3: But what we're living through is kind of a reformation 512 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 3: of that, and we're living with the logical consequence of 513 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 3: what I think again, a lot of these establishment people 514 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 3: propped up and they normalized you know, ethno state worship 515 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 3: and sacrificing principles on behalf of foreign government. Well, where 516 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 3: did you think it was going to go? And many 517 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 3: people were warned about this too. Ze Jelani in particular 518 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 3: has been at the forefront always about how openly embracing 519 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,640 Speaker 3: so you know, and supporting kakurrent Israeli government, Israeli policy, 520 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 3: the destruction a lot of the domestic policy which is 521 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 3: overtly on behalf of Israel, not only increasing anti Semitism, 522 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 3: undermining American values, and how ultimately the idea that we 523 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 3: should all just be treated equally is kind of directly 524 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 3: undermined by a lot of the pro Israel project. And 525 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 3: that's so when people take that seriously, that type of rhetoric, 526 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 3: they will embrace the American kind of end of that. 527 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 3: And that's scary for everyone, Jews included, but not just them. 528 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, indeed, and I mean, I want to be clear, 529 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 2: I don't think that Fuentes style neo Nazism is going 530 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 2: to succeed as a political project. I don't think it's 531 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 2: a majority coalition. But I do think it is succeeding 532 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 2: at destroying Mecca. And I think that it uh, you 533 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 2: know so, and look, put it on full display, let 534 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 2: people see, you know, what the views are, the hate 535 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 2: and the ugliness that is embraced by you know, people 536 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 2: within a validly like central racialist worldview. And you know, 537 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 2: I think most Americans, I have enough faith in the 538 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 2: in this country that I think most Americans will be 539 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 2: repelled and disgusted by you know, a group of people 540 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 2: who you know follows a guy who says that he 541 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 2: thinks Hettler's great and the Holocaust was was faked or exaggerated, 542 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 2: and that he's worried about quote unquote organized jewry and 543 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 2: you know, all the horrific things that he says about 544 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 2: every minority group. I think that will be rejected by Americans. 545 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 2: But he certainly has caused, like I said, he's caused 546 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 2: a choosing within the Republican Party. And it's probably a 547 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 2: good segue here to our conversation about Israel and what's 548 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 2: going on there. 549 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 3: Turning now to the question of Israel in the American 550 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 3: right and also, as I mentioned previously, about not just 551 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 3: the right but also the mainstream media. There was an incredible, 552 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 3: incredible exchange between Marjorie Taylor Green and Dana Bash over 553 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 3: at CNN. Dana Bash has been pretty vehemently pro Israel 554 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 3: from the beginning of the October seventh attack and has 555 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 3: consistently defended the government and made accusations around anti Semitism 556 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 3: on CNN. But here, in particular, Marjorie Taylor Green raises 557 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 3: drop site newses and Ryan Grim's reporting around Epstein and 558 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 3: Israel connection, and Dana Bash seems a gas unaware And 559 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 3: this is one of the most exposing clips I've ever 560 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 3: seen yet on the issue. 561 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: Let's take a listen. 562 00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 7: You questioned who and what country is putting so much 563 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 7: pressure on Trump to keep the Epstein files hidden, and 564 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 7: you included a picture about donations from pro Israel lobbying 565 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 7: group at APAC. What are you trying to say there? 566 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 6: Well, I think it's the question that many Americans are asking, 567 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 6: especially when we saw information recently come out and these 568 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 6: emails that the Oversight Committee that I serve on has released, 569 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,959 Speaker 6: and we saw Jeffriette Sein with ties to a hood Barack. 570 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 6: We saw him making business deals with them, also business 571 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 6: deals that involved the Israeli government and seems to have 572 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 6: led into their intel agencies. And I think the right 573 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 6: question is to ask is was JEFFREYE. Epstein working for Israel? 574 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 6: And I'm proud to say I don't take money from APAC. 575 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 6: I don't take money from any special group of people. 576 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:59,239 Speaker 6: I'm just representing my district and the American people, and 577 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 6: so that's what I referring to. 578 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 7: I just want to be clear. Are you saying Israel 579 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 7: is pushing the President of the United States to cover 580 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 7: up the Epstein files? And what evidence do you have 581 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 7: that that is? 582 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 6: Simply no, I simply asked no. I simply just asked 583 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 6: out loud. Is there a foreign government? It could be 584 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 6: any foreign government, but is a foreign government pushing to 585 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 6: keep this covered up because people just don't understand the 586 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 6: big fight against. 587 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 7: Well, you had APAC up there. It was pretty clear 588 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 7: which government you were talking about. 589 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 6: That I'm questioning that government in particular, and questioning any 590 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 6: other foreign government. 591 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 3: Oh, it's pretty clear which government. Yeah, what's wrong with 592 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 3: you talking about that government? The evidence is straight up, 593 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 3: it's right there. I mean, what's the problem with it. 594 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 3: It's just so ridiculous, and it's it's just crazy. It's 595 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 3: it's you know, I really believe that the Israel Epstein 596 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 3: connection is one of the reasons why not just Trump, 597 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 3: But a lot of the concern media was so reluctant 598 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 3: to actually go full on in the release of the 599 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 3: Epstein files. I've actually always found it a little bit ironic. 600 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 3: I've been at the story, you know, the Mosat theory 601 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 3: and all that. 602 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 1: With Epstein. 603 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 3: It was a theory now is basically confirmed in terms 604 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 3: of his acting as an agent often on behalf of Israel, 605 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 3: not just for Israel, many other foreign governments. But there 606 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 3: was you know, originally like this belief, Oh, it'll just 607 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 3: be the Democrats that are going to be implicated. Well, 608 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 3: one of the reasons why it appears he got the 609 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 3: sweetheart deal in more at least again, you know, my 610 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 3: personal theory is because of his power, broken connections all 611 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 3: across the world, Israel, Russia, Saudi Arabia, all of these 612 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 3: different governments, Mongolia, the Cote de Noir. That's what Ryan 613 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 3: and the Full Picture have revealed of the backstory behind 614 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 3: Epstein money laundering, pedophilia and all of that was the 615 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 3: pedophilia was like a thing that he did with a 616 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 3: you know, at times with the global elite. But the 617 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 3: money laundering and his connections, his ability to be a 618 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 3: power broker, perhaps at times intertweeting the two, it's not 619 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 3: a ton of evidence, you know, to support that at 620 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 3: the very least was why he was protected at some 621 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 3: level by some of the most richest and powerful people. 622 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 3: So the very fact that CNN had data Bash are 623 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 3: acting like this is new information that they'd never even. 624 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 1: Heard about before. 625 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 3: It just shows you still the information bubble that a 626 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 3: lot of the mainstream media and all of them are 627 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 3: swimming in. And it's just such a disgrace that Ryan 628 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 3: and Drops are the only people who are willing to 629 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 3: report those emails that shows like ours are the only 630 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 3: people even willing to talk about it. And you know, 631 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 3: a lot of the public is just living in They 632 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,719 Speaker 3: have no idea if they're not reading or paying an attention. 633 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 3: The New York Times will talk all day long about 634 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 3: Epstein and Trump, which is fine. I don't care publish it. 635 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 3: You know, sure, it's definitely a story. Epstein Israel is 636 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 3: also a big story. Where are you guys? 637 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: Nothing? 638 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, Ryan Graham and Martazza Hussaying on every single byline 639 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 2: with regard to the connections between Epstein and various Israeli figures, spies, 640 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 2: former prime minister, dealings with foreign governments on behalf of Israel, 641 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 2: Like they're literally the only ones who are doing this reporting. 642 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,399 Speaker 2: And then not only are the only the only ones 643 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 2: to do the reporting, then the mainstream press just pretends 644 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 2: that this reporting doesn't even exist. I mean, I actually 645 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 2: believe that Dana Bash doesn't even know that it exists, 646 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: and so she's conducting this interview like these questions to 647 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 2: Marjorie Taylor Green are some kind of a gotcha, like 648 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 2: are you insinuating that there's some Israel connection here? And 649 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 2: she's like, yes, i am, because that's been reported out. 650 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 2: So if you aren't aware of that piece, then you know, 651 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 2: Epstein is just effectively about morality, which is important. Like 652 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,800 Speaker 2: I think the you know, people want to know about 653 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 2: the sleazy behavior of politicians and global elites and the 654 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 2: way they're all interconnected and cover from themselves, and that 655 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 2: has a lot to do with power, and so I 656 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 2: don't think that that you can just dismiss that on 657 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:54,399 Speaker 2: its own. 658 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 4: But if you're not tying that in with. 659 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 2: Israel specifically, but more broadly, any other federal foreign government, 660 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 2: says Marjorie Taylor, Green represents there as well. If you're 661 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,760 Speaker 2: not tying those pieces together, then you're not really connecting 662 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 2: it to the present day and the risk and the 663 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 2: danger from this president right now, and why this should 664 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 2: be a central story and why it is really important 665 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 2: and has immediate bearing on the conduct of our own 666 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:25,240 Speaker 2: foreign policy. So it's just wild to see her living 667 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 2: in this completely different universe where any sort of Israel 668 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 2: Epstein connection is purely like fever swamp conspiracy, anti Semitic garbage. 669 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 2: That's how she sees it, and that's I think how 670 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 2: most of the mainstream press sees it as well. Either 671 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,399 Speaker 2: that or they're just like you know, themselves, covering up 672 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,200 Speaker 2: for Israel, which is certainly possible in many cases, but 673 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 2: a lot of it is just they sort of see 674 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 2: that as ichy conspiracy that they're not going to dirty 675 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 2: their hands with, and so she sees it as some 676 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 2: like gotcha question to Marjorie Taylor Green than a legitimate 677 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 2: line of inquiry and probably maybe the most legitimate line 678 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 2: of inquiry and concern with regard to releasing the Epstein 679 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:09,320 Speaker 2: files today. 680 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: I think this is a problem. 681 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 3: I also I want to normalize because a lot of 682 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 3: Democrats are very new to Epstein, right. They always they 683 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,560 Speaker 3: never paid attention. Now that Trump is involved with their 684 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 3: frothing and they're they're like, this is great. And I've 685 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 3: noticed this with like Ezra. 686 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 1: Kleine and all of them. They see the political utility. 687 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 3: But to them it's still icky because Republicans have been 688 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 3: talking about it, I let's say, for five years, and 689 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 3: they kind of think, like you said, it's a conspiracy 690 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 3: dream guys, the Israel thing. It's real, Okay, let's talk 691 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 3: about it. Let's talk about it. It's not just you know. 692 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 3: They're like, they don't. They're so new to the story 693 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 3: that they think anybody who's talked about that in the 694 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 3: past conspiracy brain, they don't know what they're like, No, no, no, no, 695 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 3: we have the evidence. Now look at what Ryan and 696 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 3: Martaza have reported. If I had that six months ago 697 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 3: on Targer, Carlson and all that, I would have blown 698 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 3: it out. And you know I was trying to be 699 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 3: careful at the time about well, you know, in terms 700 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 3: of theories and speculation, it's over security agreements with the 701 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:04,240 Speaker 3: presidents among it's done military technology, add Barack. You combine 702 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 3: that with everything that we already had in terms of 703 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,000 Speaker 3: a lot of the evidence. There's just not even a 704 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 3: discussion at this point in terms of acting on behalf 705 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 3: of Israel. We need to get this into the bloodstream 706 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 3: of the Midas, touch folks and others, because right now 707 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 3: everything is just focused on Trump. The point, as you 708 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,439 Speaker 3: just said, is the connective tissue from yes, just Trump 709 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,719 Speaker 3: also being mentioned, but the Israel part and its potential 710 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 3: relation to foreign policy, and also of the double standard 711 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 3: that we use in terms of counterintelligence and more on 712 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 3: the issue and potentially why Epstein was able to get 713 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 3: away in the sweetheart deal with this non prosecution agreement. 714 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 3: That's how you connect the two sides of the coin 715 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 3: and Unfortunately, CNN's of the World and others still want 716 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 3: to brand that as anti Semitic. 717 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 1: No, it's just a fact. It's literally just a simple fact. 718 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 3: I also did if I would be remiss if I 719 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 3: didn't show the more recent developments in conservative media. Let's 720 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 3: put this up here on the screen. The American Conservative 721 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 3: published this. I love it from Daniel Bogslaw, who's great. 722 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,320 Speaker 3: New Farah filings, which are the Foreign Agent Registration Act filings, 723 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:07,959 Speaker 3: show plans to promote pro Israel messaging at the conservative 724 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 3: Salem Media network. So you know, people at Salem Media 725 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,399 Speaker 3: include they say, eighty two radio stations across the US, 726 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,280 Speaker 3: major websites, manages, high profile websites, town Hall, Red State, 727 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 3: influential platforms, conserving discourse. Some of the programs that are 728 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 3: featured include The Charlie Kirk Show, The USA Show, The 729 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,839 Speaker 3: Josh Hammer Show, The Right View with Lara Trump. Well, now, 730 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 3: according to the company data, the generate, you know, the 731 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 3: network generates some eighty million monthly page views, thirty seven monthly, 732 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,760 Speaker 3: so you know, it's obviously it's influential. And so these 733 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 3: new FARA documents show that Salem Media may have already 734 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,880 Speaker 3: begun integrating paid for Israeli government narratives across its extensive 735 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 3: network of platforms. This is according to this report from 736 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 3: the American Conservatives. Salem did not respond, by the way, 737 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 3: to the American Conservatives requests for comment. The Israeli government 738 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 3: retains Salem as chief strategy officer Brad Parscale, who's the 739 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 3: former campaign manager for Donald Trump, to advocate for Israeli 740 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 3: interest through a six million dollar financial arrangement. So this 741 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 3: is all directly acknowledged in FARA. But it also, by 742 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,879 Speaker 3: the way, Denesh Jsuza very recently has been attacking Tucker 743 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 3: Carls and perhaps it's legitimate, but it does, you know, 744 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 3: genuinely raise a question when you see vast amounts of 745 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 3: money like this being thrown around to Brad Parscale who's 746 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 3: working for Salem, and its potential influence on the conservative 747 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 3: landscape and discourse. So you know, that's part of the 748 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 3: reason why all of this is so important. 749 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 2: Isn't Parscale also doing some like trying to train like 750 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 2: AI chatbots to be more pro Israel? 751 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 4: Did see the story behind I see. 752 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 1: The story behind that. 753 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 3: I would I definitely would like to I would like 754 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 3: to explore it more. I hadn't seen it like fully confirm, 755 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 3: but this one I was like, oh, they have him 756 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 3: dead to rights, So yeah, if you see people from there. 757 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 3: I mean, look, it's a legitimate question. That's part of 758 00:39:57,920 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 3: the reason our business is set up the way that 759 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 3: it is primary funded. Nobody can be coming around he 760 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 3: you're saying, oh, you're getting paid by X amount interest 761 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 3: or whatever, and if your views just happen to align 762 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 3: with the advertisers, maybe that's just the way it is. Like, 763 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 3: I don't think Josh Hammer is pro Israel because he's 764 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 3: being paid by pro Israel. You know, you can say 765 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 3: a lot about the guy, but I don't think that's why. 766 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,920 Speaker 3: I think he genuinely believes it. With Danesh Thou, I 767 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 3: really don't know personally, and with a lot of the 768 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 3: others there. But at the very least, it just goes 769 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 3: to show you buying influence because they recognize or trying 770 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 3: to buy influence with brad par Scale and potentially with 771 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 3: ads and all this other stuff, specifically because they think 772 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 3: that they're losing the information war, and it's because they 773 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 3: have a reality problem. 774 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,399 Speaker 2: Let's talk more about that reality problem, because we don't 775 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,320 Speaker 2: want to lose sight of what is happening in Gaza 776 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 2: right now. Put D three up on the screen, and 777 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 2: truly horrific mass rainfall and flooding when you have people 778 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 2: who are largely still living in tents with very limited supplies, 779 00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 2: very limited to know, sanitation, soaking, wet, freezing, any ownings 780 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 2: and belongings that they still have completely destroyed, you know, 781 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 2: and this is after years of horror, so you can 782 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 2: only imagine how broken down they are and how dispiriting 783 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 2: it is now to also have these horrific floods that 784 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 2: are just I mean, it's complete, in total, complete and 785 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 2: total nightmare as winter looms. And at the same time, 786 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 2: let's put this up on the screen. This is pretty incredible. 787 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 2: Israel now is seeking a new twenty year security agreement 788 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 2: with the US, doubling the usual urn term and adding 789 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 2: what they describe as America First modifications to win the 790 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 2: Trump administration support. 791 00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:45,880 Speaker 4: Is really a US officials. 792 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 2: Told me now in the story, if you read it, 793 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 2: the two things that they mention as America First provisions 794 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 2: are number one, like the doubling of the length of 795 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 2: the agreement and the fact that they want more money 796 00:41:56,360 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 2: then they're already getting which is insane, or two some 797 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 2: sort of a like you know, military tech collaboration which 798 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 2: would further sort of entrench their interests and intertwine US 799 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 2: with them, et cetera. But to me, Sager, I mean, 800 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,360 Speaker 2: this is another very interesting fight. On the right, the 801 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 2: fact that they are pushing for this twenty year understanding 802 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 2: really indicates that they see the writing on the wall. 803 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 2: They've already lost the Democratic base. It's gone, it's over. 804 00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 2: I think it will be a central litmus test in 805 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty eight primary, there's no doubt in my 806 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,720 Speaker 2: mind about that. But on the right, they also see 807 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 2: these divisions and the writing on the wall with the 808 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 2: you know, the direction of the Republicans as well. So 809 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 2: they're trying to lock in their position as much as 810 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 2: they can because they don't have confidence that they'll be 811 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 2: able to achieve anything approaching the same level of support 812 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 2: in the future. 813 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:53,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it is. 814 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 3: I mean, the twenty year memorandum is fascinating for a 815 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:57,720 Speaker 3: variety of reasons. 816 00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 1: Now. 817 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 3: First and foremost, the reason that they want to lock 818 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 3: it in for twenty years is because they can see 819 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 3: that if they don't right now, that a future administration 820 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 3: may not do so. But second, let's actually read a 821 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:14,399 Speaker 3: lot of the agreement, because what they want is they 822 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:18,359 Speaker 3: want continued aid to Israel. But the way that they're 823 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 3: trying to sell it is the way that the Ukrainians did. 824 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 3: So you'll remember for the pro Ukraine Caucus, what they 825 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 3: kept saying was, guys, we're not giving money to Ukraine. 826 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,839 Speaker 3: We're giving money to Ukraine so they can buy more 827 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 3: weapons from us. So it's actually good for your economy. 828 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,720 Speaker 3: Now obvious basically money wandering, isn't it. It's like funneling 829 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,480 Speaker 3: money to a foreign government so that they can buy 830 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,319 Speaker 3: money from your weapons industry. It's like, well, we could 831 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 3: just buy our own weapons if we wanted to, and 832 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,480 Speaker 3: then we could decide when and where it goes and 833 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 3: for what purpose. It seems reasonable if you ask me. 834 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 3: But some of the changes that they say not only 835 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 3: would change it from twenty years and make it to 836 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 3: the one hundredth anniversary of their independence, but what they 837 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 3: want to do is use some of the money for 838 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:04,959 Speaker 3: joint US Israeli research and development rather than direct military aid, 839 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,479 Speaker 3: and that would be defense tech defense AI Golden Dome 840 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 3: missile is Israeli said. The fundamental thing though, that we 841 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 3: come back to, is they still need the aid? Is 842 00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 3: for years there's been this debate does Israel even need aid? 843 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:19,240 Speaker 3: You know at this point, I mean, it's a country 844 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 3: with free health care. They have a fine economy, according 845 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,479 Speaker 3: to them, mister high tech, silicon valley nation. 846 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 1: All of that. 847 00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 3: It's like, okay, fine, So if you can afford all 848 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,279 Speaker 3: of that, and you can afford to literally pay a 849 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,880 Speaker 3: huge portion of your population to not work and to 850 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 3: worship and to read the Torah, then why am I 851 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:37,879 Speaker 3: giving you billions and billions. 852 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 1: Of dollars in order to subsidize that? 853 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 3: It seems kind of sick, right, Well, this twenty year 854 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 3: agreement is still a tacit admission. They need the weapons, 855 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:49,719 Speaker 3: and they fundamentally don't have the capacity to defend themselves 856 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:51,839 Speaker 3: if they wanted to, because a huge portion of their 857 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 3: talking point is we stand you know, we will always 858 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,280 Speaker 3: stand alone if and when we need to. No, it's obvious, 859 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 3: especially during the Iran crisis, we saw that. Look, you know, 860 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 3: in terms of their missile defense, the Iranians were able 861 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,840 Speaker 3: to penetrate it. They bombed a lot of high value 862 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 3: targets in the middle of Tel Aviv and across Israel 863 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 3: despite all of their great technology, which we're basically the 864 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,759 Speaker 3: ones running selling, and in the April attack back in 865 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:19,000 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four, I believe it was the United States 866 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 3: ended up shooting down the vast majority of the missiles 867 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 3: that were incoming to Israel. They can't actually defend themselves 868 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 3: to the degree that they would need to if they 869 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 3: ever got into a full blown war. So the fact 870 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 3: is they need the US security umbrella, and all this 871 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 3: talk of being this strong independent nation is bunk and 872 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,719 Speaker 3: it's ridiculous. Part of the reason I've also always said 873 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 3: too that and this is look, I'm a realist. Part 874 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:43,320 Speaker 3: of the reason too is also the benefit is because 875 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:47,240 Speaker 3: it creates more moral outcomes. Is would Israel have behaved 876 00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 3: in the way that it has over the last two 877 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,799 Speaker 3: years if it fully had to stand on its own 878 00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,960 Speaker 3: two feet. No, they would do what normal nations have 879 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 3: to do. Is they would have to assess, you know, 880 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,800 Speaker 3: the variety of threat actors or whatever in the region. 881 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 3: They'd have to calibrate their response to October seven to 882 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,280 Speaker 3: make sure that they could actually you know, be sustainable 883 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 3: to negotiate peace. The only reason they can act as 884 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,320 Speaker 3: belligerent as they do is because they have the backing 885 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 3: of the full backing of the United States. That's what 886 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 3: enables such all of not only just the atrocity, but 887 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:20,719 Speaker 3: they're basically like their gangsterism in the region that ultimately 888 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,319 Speaker 3: is what creates destabilization. And so their admission that they 889 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 3: can only survive really with a twenty year agreement from 890 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 3: the US undermines their entire how sovereign they are. No, 891 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:32,959 Speaker 3: they're a colony basically of the United States, like many 892 00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 3: other of our so called allies across the region too. 893 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 2: By the way, yeah, no, if they didn't have our backing, 894 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 2: they couldn't act with this level of impunity. They have 895 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:43,560 Speaker 2: to maybe actually try to figure out how to get 896 00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:47,840 Speaker 2: along with their neighbors rather than just constantly relentlessly bombing 897 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:49,240 Speaker 2: them and murdering people. 898 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:50,799 Speaker 4: Let's put D seven up on. 899 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,880 Speaker 2: The screens and indication of how their propaganda efforts are going. 900 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,800 Speaker 2: Here in the US, you've got Shi Devidi, who was 901 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 2: the infamous Columbia professor. I'm not going to get it 902 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 2: to all the law right now, but guys, if you 903 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 2: aren't familiar with this character, you can go and look 904 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 2: them up. In the way that he's conducted himself. In 905 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 2: any case, Miss Rachel said, wanting kids to live is 906 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 2: not anti Semitic. I'd say that's that's fair, and he 907 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 2: says in reply, yes, but advocating only for non Jewish 908 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 2: kids to live is. This is such a lie and 909 00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 2: a I mean, it's just so incredibly dishonest to portray 910 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:32,479 Speaker 2: Miss Rachel as only caring about non Jewish kids, only 911 00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 2: caring about Palestinian kids. I mean, this is just not true. 912 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 2: You can go look at the things that she said 913 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 2: after October seventh, you can go look at what she 914 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:45,840 Speaker 2: says all the time. She loves kids, period. She upholds 915 00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:49,840 Speaker 2: the humanity of kids, period, no matter their racial or 916 00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:53,719 Speaker 2: ethnic background, unlike this dude, by the way. And so 917 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 2: it's just unbelievable to me, the way that Miss Rachel 918 00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 2: has become this like central figure and just exposes the 919 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:08,000 Speaker 2: horror and the immoral nature of this Jewish supremacist ideology 920 00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:09,880 Speaker 2: that undergirds Zionism. 921 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, for Miss Rachel, she's like I am 922 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,360 Speaker 3: so from the beginning, here's what did Miss Rachel do. 923 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 3: She was like, what happened on October seventh was so horrible, 924 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 3: and what's happening in Gaza is so horrible, and by 925 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 3: saying that latter part, they're like, you're an anti semi. 926 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,799 Speaker 3: From that point forward, all literally all she has done, 927 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 3: and I've watched all of her videos on Gaza is 928 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,400 Speaker 3: she's like, look, I don't think that children should starve. 929 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,359 Speaker 3: I don't think they should be intentionally targeted. And she's 930 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 3: been using a lot of her platform in order to 931 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,240 Speaker 3: try and raise money for children who have been wounded 932 00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:42,000 Speaker 3: let's say, in Gaza, including videos doing them. Let's say, 933 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 3: you know, with the children who have lost limbs, what 934 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 3: exactly is anti Semitic? 935 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 1: Are wrong about that? In fact, from the very beginning. 936 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 3: She's made it an explicit point to make sure that 937 00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 3: she does talk also about victims on October seventh, and 938 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:59,040 Speaker 3: to specifically highlight the cause of children themselves. There is 939 00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 3: nothing anti so Medic about that whatsoever. So the fact 940 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:05,399 Speaker 3: that she gets attacked for talking about Palestinian children, if 941 00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 3: that alone is anti Semitism, well then yeah, I mean 942 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 3: this to our whole Fuintes discussion. 943 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:12,480 Speaker 1: That's how you get here. 944 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:15,439 Speaker 3: If you're going to say that everything, any criticism, even 945 00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:20,280 Speaker 3: elevation in this case of Palestinian children is itself anti 946 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:24,400 Speaker 3: Semitic and talking about their fate is explicitly undermining and 947 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:25,719 Speaker 3: not advocating for. 948 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:26,839 Speaker 1: Jewish children to live. 949 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:28,880 Speaker 3: A lot of people are just going to say, screw you, 950 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:30,920 Speaker 3: I can't even listen to you anymore. And you know, 951 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,279 Speaker 3: by the way, a lot of the criticism what they 952 00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 3: forgot about Miss Rachel is for her, this is an 953 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 3: issue that she deeply cares about. I've listened to interviews 954 00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 3: with Miss Rachel before. She sees her main very much 955 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:43,840 Speaker 3: in the way of mister Rogers. It doesn't take a 956 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 3: genius to see that this lady's made plenty of money. Okay, 957 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,440 Speaker 3: so it's not like she can be attacked or bankrupted 958 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:50,279 Speaker 3: or any of that. 959 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 1: She's probably what the most watched show in the. 960 00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 3: History of Netflix, something like that, billions of views on YouTube. 961 00:49:57,239 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 3: She doesn't need you know, your endorsements or any of 962 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 3: that in order to live now at this point. So 963 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 3: for her, it's a cause that she just deeply cares about. 964 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,719 Speaker 3: And all she's done is triple down on her platform 965 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 3: to try and raise awareness about the cause. And look, 966 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:14,200 Speaker 3: she still has not only a parental like grassroots following there. 967 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 3: You know, podcasts and all of them are are like 968 00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 3: jumping over themselves to trying to book miss Rachel. And 969 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 3: it's not about the Palestinian issue even then, it's about respect, 970 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 3: I think for her advocacy for children, and even mainstream 971 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 3: figures look far past that and they think that these 972 00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 3: attacks are ridiculous. 973 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 1: So I agree. 974 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 3: I think it's one of the most exposing thing that's 975 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 3: happened in the discourse. It's like, really, they're going after 976 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:39,320 Speaker 3: miss Rachel for saying children shouldn't have their limbs blown 977 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:40,240 Speaker 3: off or starved? 978 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:42,800 Speaker 1: Is that the extent of where we are at Natro? 979 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:44,800 Speaker 1: And yes, apparently that's the answer. 980 00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, And just before anyone chimes in like, okay, but 981 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 2: why does she only care about Gaza and Palestinians. Why 982 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:54,040 Speaker 2: doesn't she say something about Sudan. Not only has she 983 00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 2: said something about Studio, she literally also raised money for 984 00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:59,800 Speaker 2: children in Sudan. So you know, for all those people 985 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:02,399 Speaker 2: on there who only give about Sudan. By the way, 986 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,680 Speaker 2: when it's to say like why don't you care about Sudan, 987 00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 2: guess what, she also raised money for them and cares 988 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:13,200 Speaker 2: about those children as well. All right, Should we get 989 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,359 Speaker 2: a little bit into the Democrats here before we wrap 990 00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 2: the show, I've got some interesting Gavin Newsom comments, let's 991 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,120 Speaker 2: put this up on the screen. Speaking of maybe a 992 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:26,760 Speaker 2: time of choosing within parties, Newsom said this about Zoronmumdannie. 993 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 2: He said, I think Mom Donnie is very good for 994 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,839 Speaker 2: the Democratic Party. I want a broad tent. I want 995 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:34,960 Speaker 2: a big tent. I want the party of mansion to 996 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:37,920 Speaker 2: Mom Donnie. I want to be more inclusive. We have 997 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:40,480 Speaker 2: to grow the pie. It's not about scarcity. It's an 998 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:46,200 Speaker 2: abundance mindset. And I mean, I think here's my view 999 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:50,560 Speaker 2: of Gavin. I think Gavin is having a very a 1000 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:52,480 Speaker 2: big moment with the Democratic base right now. I think 1001 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:53,960 Speaker 2: right now you'd have to say it's basically like the 1002 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 2: twenty twenty eight front runner. And the reason he's gotten 1003 00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 2: such purchase with the Democratic base is because he is 1004 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,880 Speaker 2: positioned himself as this like anti Trump fighter. I did 1005 00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 2: the Prop fifty thing. He's on Twitter doing this whole 1006 00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:10,720 Speaker 2: like Trump posting type of thing. He hasn't been afraid 1007 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,000 Speaker 2: to pick a fight with the sitting president of the 1008 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:13,800 Speaker 2: United States. 1009 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,359 Speaker 4: But statements like this should give you. 1010 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 2: Pause about whether or not this guy is really going 1011 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:23,680 Speaker 2: to be the guy, because you are going to have 1012 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 2: within the Democratic base, there has been a level of 1013 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 2: radicalization where they find like the Mansions of the world 1014 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 2: that just constantly capitulate and by the way, Mansion is 1015 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 2: not like a populace. Mansion is a corporate guy. They 1016 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,799 Speaker 2: find that disgusting. And so I don't think that the 1017 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsoms of the world, who are trying to be 1018 00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 2: all things to all people and not pick a side 1019 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 2: in whether or not you're going to continue to be 1020 00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:52,640 Speaker 2: a donor party or whether you're going to confront capital. 1021 00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 2: That position of trying to be all things to all 1022 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:58,160 Speaker 2: people is not going to be sustainable going forward. And 1023 00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:00,680 Speaker 2: we all know which side Gavin Newsom is actually on 1024 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:02,439 Speaker 2: and which side he is ultimately going to pick. 1025 00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 3: Is actually kind of fascinating to see the way that 1026 00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:11,480 Speaker 3: he is grappling, like the Mamdani to Mansion thing. Think 1027 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:16,320 Speaker 3: I think Gavin, his calibration right now, is really losing 1028 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:20,800 Speaker 3: people because he did best when he was standing against Trump, 1029 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 3: right and he actually, let's give him, you know, political credit. 1030 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 3: He came out against the shutdown deal, he said it 1031 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:29,080 Speaker 3: was caving, he said it was bad. But he is 1032 00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:32,759 Speaker 3: trying to retain his ability to tap a lot of 1033 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,800 Speaker 3: the donor base and to still live in a world 1034 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:38,000 Speaker 3: where you get to raise money from all of the 1035 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 3: rich people, many of whom are also pro Israel, and 1036 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:43,759 Speaker 3: then also live in the world of political success for 1037 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:47,560 Speaker 3: a zoron Mamdania for more populis style candidates. I don't 1038 00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:49,640 Speaker 3: think that that circle can be squared. We talked about 1039 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,279 Speaker 3: the whole fuintest thing earlier. It just I just don't 1040 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:54,440 Speaker 3: think you can you can live with that anymore unless 1041 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:57,319 Speaker 3: the billionaires are literally just going to stop advocating for 1042 00:53:57,360 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 3: the stuff that they do, which you and I know 1043 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,879 Speaker 3: they'll never do, uh, and they'll just accept They'll be like, oh, 1044 00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 3: we hate Trump enough that we're willing to just back 1045 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 3: you up and you can say whatever you want. 1046 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:10,000 Speaker 1: That is actually theoretically possible. 1047 00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:12,719 Speaker 3: I wouldn't entirely put that off the table, but I 1048 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:14,879 Speaker 3: don't think that that's going to happen. So then, dude, 1049 00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:17,200 Speaker 3: you're gonna have to make a choice at a certain point. 1050 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 3: And that apac answer that was the first time I 1051 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,200 Speaker 3: actually doubted him. I was like, oh my god, wow, Yeah, 1052 00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 3: like wow, because what I respect is his talent. 1053 00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 1: He's a he is you know. 1054 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:30,280 Speaker 3: Calibration is bad in my opinion, because you don't believe anything. 1055 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,280 Speaker 3: But if I respect talent and the ability to follow 1056 00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:36,719 Speaker 3: that talent. But in that moment, I was like, Man, 1057 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:40,719 Speaker 3: your inability to be authentic or even to give a 1058 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:45,120 Speaker 3: normal answer on that was just a huge sell. And 1059 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:49,440 Speaker 3: this is another example of you know, it's constantly calibration. 1060 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:52,360 Speaker 3: Keep the donors happy, try to keep the voters happy. 1061 00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 3: Due to a certain point, you're just gonna have to choose. 1062 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 3: And by the way, I mean maybe I'm curious for 1063 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 3: what you think. I feel like the billionaires, they'll come 1064 00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:01,839 Speaker 3: home if Goavin's Alt only the nominee and he just says, okay, 1065 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:04,160 Speaker 3: screw you right now for the primary, they would come 1066 00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:06,480 Speaker 3: home because a lot of them will will you know, 1067 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,479 Speaker 3: be against Trump and they'll ultimately have fate that he'll 1068 00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,800 Speaker 3: be better on policy then let's say a more populous 1069 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 3: left style. 1070 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 1: Damn. So it's also just bad politics in my opinion. 1071 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:17,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I mean that that is a good point. 1072 00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:20,719 Speaker 2: If he, you know, postured like he was gonna raise 1073 00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,720 Speaker 2: their taxes or do whatever other thing that they're totally 1074 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,400 Speaker 2: terrified and disgusted by. But the thing for him is 1075 00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 2: his whole rise to power. The whole reason that he's 1076 00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:33,840 Speaker 2: governor of California. I mean, listen, he has political talent. 1077 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:34,640 Speaker 1: You know. 1078 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:36,839 Speaker 2: Personally he gives me theck and he's like used car 1079 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:39,759 Speaker 2: salesman vibes all over him, like greasy Gavin. That's that's 1080 00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:42,359 Speaker 2: my sense of him. But you know, he is a 1081 00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:45,440 Speaker 2: talented figure in a lot of ways. Especially he can 1082 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:46,880 Speaker 2: mix it up with Fever, who did great in that 1083 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 2: round de Santis debate. 1084 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 1: Whatever. 1085 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,880 Speaker 2: But but yeah, I mean, if he postured like he 1086 00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:53,880 Speaker 2: was going to be different in order to win the 1087 00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 2: Democratic primary, I think you're right that they would still 1088 00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:00,640 Speaker 2: rather have him than a more you know, someone who 1089 00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 2: had a more consistent track record of confronting capital. 1090 00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:04,640 Speaker 4: There's no doubt about it. 1091 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:08,200 Speaker 2: But his whole rise to power has been on the 1092 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 2: corner of the market, on the Silicon Valley donors. I'm 1093 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,239 Speaker 2: in a corner of the market, on the you know, 1094 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:14,240 Speaker 2: the Hollywood donors. I'm in the corner of the market. 1095 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:16,279 Speaker 2: I'm sure he has plenty of you know, New York 1096 00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:20,760 Speaker 2: City Wall Street type donors as well. That's really truly 1097 00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 2: his base, and so I don't think that he is 1098 00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:29,960 Speaker 2: really fundamentally capable of going against them and you saw that. 1099 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 4: That's why that APAC. 1100 00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:35,320 Speaker 2: Moment was very important because it wasn't something you can spin. 1101 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 4: There's just there's either a yes. It's a yes or 1102 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:38,319 Speaker 4: a no. 1103 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:43,680 Speaker 2: Right and increasingly a Democratic base is you know, they 1104 00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 2: see through these attempts to well, let me change the subject, 1105 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,719 Speaker 2: will let me dodge, will let me deflect. There are 1106 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:51,800 Speaker 2: some yes or no questions where you have to choose 1107 00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:53,880 Speaker 2: a side, and when it comes down to it, Gavin 1108 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,319 Speaker 2: Newsom is going to choose the side of capital because 1109 00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:58,760 Speaker 2: that is what he has always been throughout his career, 1110 00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:01,400 Speaker 2: even as I think they really appreciates the fight that 1111 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 2: he's sort of demonstrating against Trump right now. So another 1112 00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 2: pretty wild moment in New Hampshire. So Democratic Senator Jean 1113 00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:13,520 Speaker 2: Shaheen was heckled actually by the guy who is in 1114 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:18,680 Speaker 2: a primary against her daughter for an open house seat. 1115 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:22,080 Speaker 2: And Jean shahen of course was the lead Democrat in 1116 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 2: terms of negotiating the shutdown cave. This was at like 1117 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:29,080 Speaker 2: a Democratic Party function, so it's a lot of like 1118 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,120 Speaker 2: you know, of her fans and just sort of like 1119 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 2: Democratic party type, the type of people that actually go 1120 00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:36,360 Speaker 2: to the committee meetings and serve on the boards and 1121 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:38,439 Speaker 2: those sorts of folks who are in the room. 1122 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 4: But let's take a listen to that. 1123 00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 8: So let me be clu nobody wants to listen the 1124 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:50,120 Speaker 8: Affordable Care Act tax credits more than the or more 1125 00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:53,640 Speaker 8: than senator has. What did you vote for? You look 1126 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:56,560 Speaker 8: at our record, and you tell me what you've done 1127 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:57,760 Speaker 8: to protect the health. 1128 00:57:57,640 --> 00:57:59,440 Speaker 4: Care of America, And it's not. 1129 00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:01,439 Speaker 7: Done. 1130 00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:13,800 Speaker 2: So Soccer, she's like very nasty and aggressive against this guy, 1131 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 2: and it's going to be interesting to see. So, as 1132 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,920 Speaker 2: I mentioned, her daughter is running for Congress, and her 1133 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 2: daughter actually came out against the shutdown deal. So she's 1134 00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 2: on the opposite side of her mom. But at this 1135 00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 2: point in the state with the Democratic base, even though 1136 00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:32,440 Speaker 2: in that room Jean Hihen gets some support, the overall 1137 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 2: sense is like discussed over the shutdown cave And so 1138 00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:38,320 Speaker 2: I wonder if the daughter, like you know, catches some 1139 00:58:38,800 --> 00:58:41,720 Speaker 2: damage here just from being in the same family. And 1140 00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:43,960 Speaker 2: then let's put this up on the screen of this 1141 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,200 Speaker 2: the guy who was doing the heckling, who is in 1142 00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:50,280 Speaker 2: this primary with Jean Sheheen's daughter, and he talks about 1143 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 2: his own medical issues and how fundamental that has been 1144 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:58,280 Speaker 2: to his own politics. In explaining why he decided to 1145 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:01,480 Speaker 2: stand up and have this moment. So he says, Senator Shaheen, 1146 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:04,000 Speaker 2: I suffered a severe spinal injury at age fifteen. My 1147 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 2: spinal cord had to be rebundled. I had eight rods 1148 00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:08,640 Speaker 2: and four screws put in my back. Four years later, 1149 00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 2: one of the rods in my back snapped and I 1150 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:14,920 Speaker 2: had to have another major surgery. I developed a recnoiditis. 1151 00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:17,160 Speaker 2: I'm going to go with a chronic pain condition that 1152 00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:19,280 Speaker 2: I live with for the rest of my life due 1153 00:59:19,280 --> 00:59:22,680 Speaker 2: to surgery complications. The first photo shows my spine, the 1154 00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 2: second represents yours, and it's a box of wet noodles. 1155 00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:30,160 Speaker 2: I will never back down when it comes to healthcare. 1156 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:33,680 Speaker 2: So you know, the shutdown has injected another sort of 1157 00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 2: litmus test issue within the Democratic primary and within Democratic primaries. 1158 00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:41,680 Speaker 2: And what I've seen, Sager two, is it's not enough 1159 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 2: to have opposed the shutdown. Cave basically everyone who was 1160 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:47,680 Speaker 2: running for office as they oppose it, including Gen Shhen's 1161 00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:50,160 Speaker 2: own daughter. But the next level is saying that Chuck 1162 00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:52,680 Speaker 2: Schumer needs to go. And that's the one that a 1163 00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:55,760 Speaker 2: lot of candidates, including Peggy Flanagan in the Minnesota primary 1164 00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 2: that we interviewed, including I interviewed Antonio Delgado, who's Lieutenant 1165 00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:02,560 Speaker 2: governor of New York, challenge jin Kathy Hochel aoc can't 1166 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 2: come out and outright say it. That seems to be 1167 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:07,520 Speaker 2: the one that is more difficult for some of these 1168 01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:10,880 Speaker 2: candidates to fully articulate and get on board with totally. 1169 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 3: And you know this also gets the Chuck Schumer element 1170 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:15,840 Speaker 3: that you set up. Let's go to that next one 1171 01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 3: and put it on the screen. 1172 01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:18,000 Speaker 1: E four just. 1173 01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 3: About how the shutdown has left people questioning his future 1174 01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 3: more than ever. Like you have a record number of 1175 01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 3: Democrats who are speaking out specifically against Schumer's leadership in 1176 01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:31,720 Speaker 3: the House. You had Rokhanna saying that he needs to resign. 1177 01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:34,840 Speaker 3: You had multiple others in the Senate grumbling about his 1178 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 3: handling of it. You have a historically unpopular Democratic leader 1179 01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:42,480 Speaker 3: here for his handling of the shutdown. He has to 1180 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:47,640 Speaker 3: run again if he wants to in twenty twenty eight. Yeah, 1181 01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:50,360 Speaker 3: he has to run again for re election. If he 1182 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:53,240 Speaker 3: wants to, the Democrats then would have to back him. 1183 01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:56,560 Speaker 3: You have candidates explicitly like Plattner another saying I won't 1184 01:00:56,600 --> 01:01:00,360 Speaker 3: vote for the guy. So this demonstrates where's not much 1185 01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:03,480 Speaker 3: of the grassroots energy is on the Democratic Party. And 1186 01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:05,960 Speaker 3: this tying it back to Gavin, the fact that Gavin 1187 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:09,080 Speaker 3: hasn't called for Schumer's head and still kind of maintains 1188 01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 3: friendly relationship with Democratic leaders, that's just such a liability 1189 01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 3: in this anti institutional moment, Like you have to just 1190 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:18,120 Speaker 3: be willing to come out and be like, no, he's done. 1191 01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:20,920 Speaker 3: He betrayed us. He's got to go, Like there's just 1192 01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 3: only political upside to that. But because of political connections, 1193 01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 3: he can't do it with Gavin. 1194 01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:28,600 Speaker 2: I you know, I don't expect anything different with some 1195 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:31,920 Speaker 2: of these candidates who are positioning themselves as the progressive 1196 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:32,959 Speaker 2: insurgent in the race. 1197 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:33,640 Speaker 4: I'm like, I. 1198 01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:35,960 Speaker 2: Don't get it. What is the hang up here? Like 1199 01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:39,360 Speaker 2: he doesn't like you, he's supporting your opponent. Why can't 1200 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:41,560 Speaker 2: you just say, yes, we need new leadership. This guy 1201 01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:44,320 Speaker 2: has got to go. But that article is interesting because 1202 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:47,280 Speaker 2: it says effectively like everyone knows this is Schumer's last 1203 01:01:47,360 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 2: term except for him, Like he may be the last 1204 01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 2: guy to not realize that his political career is over. 1205 01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:57,640 Speaker 2: Because I mean, AOC is the most obvious potential primary challenger. 1206 01:01:57,640 --> 01:01:59,320 Speaker 2: I think she'd wipe the floor with him, but they 1207 01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 2: mentioned any number of other pat Ryan is one other 1208 01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:04,880 Speaker 2: potential possibility, Letitia James. There are a lot of other 1209 01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:09,439 Speaker 2: New York politicians who I think would handily defeat him 1210 01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:13,120 Speaker 2: at this point in a primary. So, you know, I 1211 01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:16,479 Speaker 2: think he'll probably remain on as leader because I don't 1212 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:20,000 Speaker 2: see any of the Senate Democratic Caucus that are standing 1213 01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:21,920 Speaker 2: up to say, Okay, we've got to do something different. 1214 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,600 Speaker 2: It's perplexing to me because you'd be such a hero, 1215 01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:26,880 Speaker 2: like if you're a Chris van Holland or whoever who's 1216 01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:29,800 Speaker 2: sniffing around a presidential run, you'd be such a hero 1217 01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 2: to take that position. But I don't see any of 1218 01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:33,840 Speaker 2: them doing it. So I think he'll remain as leader. 1219 01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:36,640 Speaker 2: But you know, come twenty twenty eight, I think he's 1220 01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:39,880 Speaker 2: going to be out. But you know, yeah, on the 1221 01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:42,840 Speaker 2: Gavin point, you're absolutely correct. It's one more issue where 1222 01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:45,720 Speaker 2: if he gets asked the direct question, people are not 1223 01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:47,600 Speaker 2: going to like. They're not going to like his answer. 1224 01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:50,560 Speaker 2: They don't want this Weasley crap. They want these old 1225 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 2: failed leaders gone. They want a completely new direction, and 1226 01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:57,360 Speaker 2: it's really going to advantage those who are outsiders to 1227 01:02:57,400 --> 01:02:59,720 Speaker 2: the system, like you know this guy who challenge senator 1228 01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:02,120 Speaker 2: who has you know, he doesn't give a shit which 1229 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:04,280 Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer thinks of him, or the grand Platners of 1230 01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 2: the world or whatever. They're like, Yeah, fuck that guy. 1231 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 2: It's easy for me to be able to say it. 1232 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:10,800 Speaker 2: So it's another thing that's really going to advantage outsiders 1233 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:12,360 Speaker 2: in these upcoming Democratic primaries. 1234 01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:14,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred percent. And just look to back up 1235 01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:16,840 Speaker 3: on the polling. We can end it here, e five 1236 01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:18,120 Speaker 3: up on the screen. 1237 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:18,840 Speaker 1: Just look at this. 1238 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:23,240 Speaker 3: Most Democrats think congressional Republicans compromised too much fifty five percent. 1239 01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:26,280 Speaker 3: Only thirty two percent say write them out. Only thirteen 1240 01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:30,400 Speaker 3: percent say not enough. So I mean, look, it's overwhelming 1241 01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:32,680 Speaker 3: in terms of the majority. And then put the next 1242 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:36,760 Speaker 3: one up there on the screen. Schumer apparently called the 1243 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:40,840 Speaker 3: Democratic hopefuls Andy Basheer, Josh Shapiro, and JB. Prisker and 1244 01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:43,160 Speaker 3: told them not to criticize the deal that opened reopened 1245 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:45,160 Speaker 3: the government. First of all, that's to sell on all 1246 01:03:45,200 --> 01:03:47,320 Speaker 3: three of them. If all three of them actually didn't 1247 01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:48,680 Speaker 3: do that, I had to have to go back and 1248 01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:52,200 Speaker 3: check their potential statements. But yeah, for all this talk 1249 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:55,320 Speaker 3: about how secretly he was fighting against the deal, It's like, well, 1250 01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:57,120 Speaker 3: then why are you doing that, man, why are you 1251 01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 3: calling all these hopefuls and telling them not to vote 1252 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:00,800 Speaker 3: and telling them not to criticize the deal? 1253 01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:05,560 Speaker 2: Exactly exactly, And once again, like in the Epstein block, 1254 01:04:05,680 --> 01:04:07,560 Speaker 2: got to give for Ocanna his due, Yeah, you do, 1255 01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:09,440 Speaker 2: because he was the first sound of the gates to 1256 01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:11,800 Speaker 2: say that's it, Schumer's gotta go. And then you had 1257 01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:15,040 Speaker 2: a number of other Democratic raps who followed behind him. 1258 01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 2: But he seems to have, you know, much more of 1259 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:21,120 Speaker 2: his finger on the pulse of where the Democratic base 1260 01:04:21,240 --> 01:04:24,960 Speaker 2: is than many other would be twenty twenty eight aspirins. 1261 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:27,240 Speaker 2: And I include aoc in that as well, because she 1262 01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:29,440 Speaker 2: was very when she got asked about Schumer, she did 1263 01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 2: this whole well, they all kind of suck, so what 1264 01:04:31,280 --> 01:04:34,320 Speaker 2: like sounding like Bernie's line on this thing as well. 1265 01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:37,560 Speaker 2: And you know, he's he's been the one who figured 1266 01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:41,000 Speaker 2: out Epstein was the place to push Trump and MAGA 1267 01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:44,000 Speaker 2: and then has been much more in touch with the 1268 01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 2: Democratic base in terms of their discuss with leadership. 1269 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:49,080 Speaker 3: Yep, exactly right. Okay, guys, thank you so much for watching. 1270 01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:51,680 Speaker 3: We appreciate it. We'll have a great show for everybody tomorrow. 1271 01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 1: We'll see you the
