Rex Jones and Tim Tompkins dissect the Young Republicans’ leaked chat logs—revealing violent, racist remarks from figures like Peter Gwinta (NY) and William Hendricks (KS)—while debating whether apologies matter when intent is exposed. They contrast performative GOP elitism with grassroots urgency, critique both parties’ hypocrisy (Hunter Biden’s deals vs. Letitia James’ DOJ-funded lawsuits), and question Trump’s defense of Alex Jones amid his own legal battles. The episode also examines Ukraine’s reliance on Western tech, rare earth mineral stakes tied to the Istanbul agreement, and Israel’s potential Iran escalation, framing conflicts as resource-driven power struggles before pivoting to audience engagement and upcoming historical deep dives.

Otherwise, I would be playing like roulette right, I would just have a couple grand set aside and I would go play poker, or I would go enter a poker tournament and then like, i'd be like okay, I either win or I lose, and i'm probably gonna lose, but that's the calculation.
So while you were gone, this big news story broke about the Uh, Republican or Young Republican group chat where they're all kind of, you know, like Hitler and such things.
I mean, like you're a tall guy, you're a good looking guy and they probably came up to you And they go, hey, you know, like you can be a part of our thing.
Yeah, but it was like they have like an organization here that does like almost a little bit of punditry, but like they're on like the local grassroot levels, like those guys who just go out and get people to vote and shit like that.
You should definitely, you should definitely join the Young Republicans Club.
You know, we, we like to do a lot of things here.
And it was like the most NPC, like fake personality you could possibly like.
If you could take a textbook gang, you know, like if you could take the textbook, like, okay, pop the political people on how they're supposed to be like on a TV level, like people just roasting.
That was like, you see how, but you recognize because you're in business and you're a businessman like myself when someone's trying to sell to you, right?
And that's that's the thing, right?
Like, I remember like the second or third conversation we had because I was like, hey, we should go get something to eat and just talk, right?
Like you can just see there, they got the little red tie on, the whole get up.
And it's crazy because the way he was describing it to me, he was like, it was almost like literally like a fraternity for young people with like also girls and stuff like that.
And they have their own little mixers.
And, you know, I was just like, what in the world is this?
Well, I imagine more like an AOC, you know, like that's that's how I picture like an establishment lib establishment lib who's just trying to like appeal to that younger demographic by just like she is young.
I'll give her credit.
She got in pretty fucking early in her career.
So it's right.
It's just, it's all, it's all like one big slop fest of just, I don't understand the outcomes of these whole things.
But yeah, we'll, we'll get more into that for sure.
Well, the thing is, is like you look at a house and you see it's like 350,000 or like 400K and you're like, you look at the $2 million property that's basically a rinky-dink shack that was run down from like the 1950s.
It's like a no-brainer.
Because for a million dollars here, you get a freaking McMansion.
They came out when I was in high school to someone asked about is silver going up.
Is that silver is going up, guys?
At the end of the day, like this is my investment strategy, and do not, I'm not a financial advisor, but those hard assets, like gold, silver, like those are two staples that will be around forever.
And those are things like if the U.S. just implodes from all the debt we've been acquiring and all this fake money printing, that's the first thing that's going to defend you from anything.
All that money you have in your bank account, just well, it's hard assets that you'd want anyway, right?
Like, when I get more money, like I, I just got a big month on one of my stores.
I'm not going to disclose too much information, but I'm going to have the ability to order some uh knockout sleep support.
I'm going to reformulate it and release it to people.
It's a classic product we used to have, but I'm going to bring it back to one of my stores.
And like, when I get money, I typically order product with it, right?
That's like we've been doing that as well with this new brand that we're doing.
Yeah, we invest in physical goods that we can sell people, but you know, eventually, I think we do want people to be able to pay in like Bitcoin and stuff.
Um, as far as crypto, crypto is we're also going to talk about that with all the grifting that's happening with that.
I'm so disappointed in our country right now, but um, crypto is going to be one of those solid assets.
I was really unsure about it about three years ago, but then now like everyone's buying it, including governments.
Like, it's just it's here to stay.
uh dog is on the couch guys i'm sorry right and you know like we made this point before like they'll tie the debt to a crypto coin and then make everyone buy it yeah though i think what america will do is they'll probably create their own like probably american digital coin of some sort and then make the 37 trillion dollars just disappear by making everybody buy that coin it's it's yeah wait where's the dog i shocked the dog This actually isn't a vape.
Leaders of young Republican groups throughout the country worried what would happen if their Telegram chat ever got leaked, but they kept typing anyway.
They referred to black people as monkeys and the watermelon people and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers.
They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and landed Republicans or lauded Republicans who they believe support slavery.
William Hendricks, the Kansas Young Republicans vice chair, used the words, I'll let you do this, Tim and Nigo variations of a racial slur more than a dozen times in the chat.
Bobby Walker, the vice chair of the New York state young Republicans at the time, referred to rape as epic.
Ooh, that's interesting.
Okay, Peter Gwinta, who at the time was chair of the same organization, wrote a message sent in June that said, Everyone that votes no is going to the gas chamber.
Gwenta was referring to an upcoming revote on whether he should become chair of the Young Republican National Federation, the GOP's 1500 or 15,000 member political organization for the Republicans between 18 and 40 years old.
I got a quick little anecdote and we'll get to the story.
You know, when I was little, when I was like 12, 13 years old, my dad was like, you got to go to, you got to do some more public speaking.
I was like, I think I already know how to do this just fine.
And he's like, no, no, no, you got to go to Toastmasters.
So I went to this Toastmasters thing with a family relative and like that guy was crazy and ended up crashing out later.
That's a long story, kind of irrelevant to the discussion today.
But it's literally this event where you have like immigrant people, like Chinese people, Indian people, like Korean people that speak English as like a second or third language.
And the job is to like present a speech, right?
And then you have like these like white dudes, like these like middle-aged white dudes that wear like blazers and stuff, and they go and like lord over the immigrants because they can speak English like a lord of the flock.
That's what this reminds me of a little bit.
But replace, you know, second or third language with just plain and inexperienced.
The exchange is a part of Trove of Telegram chats obtained by Politico and spending more than seven months of messages among young Republican leaders in New York, Kansas, Arizona, and Vermont.
The chat offers an unfiltered look at how a new generation of GOP activists talk when they think no one is listening.
Listening since Politico began making inquiries, one member of the group chat is no longer employed at their job and a number another job offer was rescinded.
Prominent New York Republicans, including Reb Lee Stefanik and state Senate minority leader Rob Oort, have denounced the chat and festering resentments among young Republicans have now turned into public recriminations, including allegations of character assassination and extortion.
A liberating atmosphere.
2,900 pages of chat shared among a dozen millennial and Gen Z Republicans between early January and mid-August chronicle their campaign to seize control of the National Young Republican organization on a hardline pro-Donald Trump platform.
Many of the chat members already worked and studied government or party politics.
And one, I'm a state senator now.
I'm very important.
Yeah.
I mean, dude, it's literally like, I know a guy like this.
Like, he literally struts around all day in a suit.
So I'll give you guys a little background into like what the young Republicans are and like how that operation works.
But basically, like you saw earlier, this is a national federation.
So like there's, it's members from 18 to 40.
They kind of like operate like a frat system for the Republican Party.
That's like the easiest way to like to create an analogy for this.
So each state and each city has its own chapter that runs like independently with its own leaders.
They've got their own events.
They've got tones that are some moderate.
Some chapters are a little bit more moderate.
Some chapters are a little bit more hardline where they're just like, you know, spewing, you know, crazy shit.
But overall, they are connected under like one organization, which is the Young Republicans National Organization, which acts as like the headquarters.
Just like if you had a fraternity or sorority, there's one overarching one and they have a bunch of chapters across different colleges.
So like they work really closely with the Republican Party and they help like run campaigns.
They do fundraisers.
They do voter outreach.
And then they even technically, they're technically separate, separate, but they function as like a training pipeline for the GOP.
So it's kind of like recruiting for the next generation of Republican leaders.
And so they like, they give these like young people hands-on experience and campaign work.
And a lot of these people go into like these, you know, offices of, you know, existing GOP members and they'll run their campaigns.
They'll do a lot of the free work for these people and the behind the scenes and doing the rallies and running around and like getting endorsements.
In my opinion, what it really is, and we'll cut back to the camera for a second.
In my opinion, what all this really is, is ultimately, if you're one of these like minor political facelords, like you're like a state senator or something, you have to have like a gaggle of geese, like a gaggle of like other young dudes that look nice and are like in like nice clothes and the suits and the sports jacket because it creates like an air of sophistication.
I was at, and we had talked about this earlier, but I'll reiterate this for the people who just joined.
So, you know, probably like earlier this year, I had attended this like Republican event.
Like now I'm independent, just to clarify that, but I lean more.
But I lean more right.
So like, I was just curious about like what the political space was like and like local events and stuff.
Like I wouldn't go to a Democratic convention type of thing.
So long story short, I went to this event and the guy there, there was this, it was just a bunch of boomers just voting on a bunch of issues.
They didn't really have like they do like things on a local level for like the local Austin Travis County jurisdiction, like things that people don't really care about.
They vote on and run that stuff.
There's this one guy and he's like dressed up like to the nines.
And he gets up and he goes and gives like this speech because he wanted to get this chair at the event.
And he's just, he's he goes after the event and he comes up to me and I start talking to him and I'm asking him like, oh, and he's like, yeah, I'm part of the Young Republicans Club, you know, you should join young man.
They opened up another chapter which had like they had they were newer to the Travis County, but they were a little bit more normal.
I went to those ones just for a little bit.
But overall, I was just like, I'm not, I'm not, I don't want to be part of like the fucking, you know, boots on the ground slop that I have to just be raised into one demographic and just basically be brainwashed.
Like, I'd rather have, if I'm going to get into political, I'd rather go a different route on my own and figure it out from there.
The group chat spoke freely about the pressure to cow to Trump.
That's not how you spell cow in this sense.
The person writing this article is kind of an idiot to Trump to avoid being called the rhino, which means Republican in name only.
The love of Nazis within their party's right wing and the president's alleged work to suppress documents related to wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein's child sex crimes.
Trump's too busy burning the Epstein files based.
Based Alex Dwyer, the chair of Kansas Young Republicans wrote in one instance, Dwyer and Katie Katie or KKD declined to comment.
Maligno and Hendrix did not return requests for comments, but some involved in the chat did respond publicly.
This, the Italian guy, the fat Italian guy who's based, Gwenta claimed the release of the chat is part of a highly coordinated year-long character assassination led by Gavin Wax in the New York City Young Republican Club.
In allusion to, I got a burp, allusion to a once-obscured intercene war, which is now spilled into the open.
The logs were sourced by way of extortion and provided to Politico by the very same people conspiring against me.
What's most disheartening is that despite my unwavering support of President Trump since 2016, rogue members of this administration, including Gavin Wax, have participated in the conspiracy to ruin me publicly simply because I challenged them privately.
Wax, a staffer in Trump State Department, formerly led the New York Young Republican Club, a separate city-based group that is at odds with the state organization.
The New York State Young Republicans, he declined to comment.
Despite his allusions to infighting, Guinto still apologized.
I'm sorry.
Who are those who are offended?
Never apologize.
That's rule number one.
That's the big mistake.
He could have had a whole career out of this if you just didn't apologize.
He would have had, you know, 100,000 subscribers the next day.
And it could have become a big media figure.
He may still do that.
But the number one rule of this is you never apologize to these people.
I created during my campaign to lead the Young Republicans while I take complete responsibility.
Oh, no.
I have had no way of verifying their accuracy and I'm deeply concerned the message logs in question may have been deceptively doctored.
At least one person in Telegram chat works in the Trump administration, Michael Bartells, who, according to his LinkedIn account, serves as senior advisor in the office of general counsel within the United States Small Business Administration.
Bartells did not have much to say in the chat, but he didn't offer any pushback against the offensive rhetoric in it either.
A notarized affidavit signed by Bartell's and obtained by Politico also sheds light on the intra-party rivalry that led to the Restore Young Republican War Room telegram chat to be made public.
Bartels references Wax as well.
He wrote that he did not give Politico the chat and that Wax demanded in a phone call that he provide the full chat log.
Yes, and we have that affidavit here.
This comes from Milo Yiannopoulos.
And I believe, yeah, this is Bartell's.
It's the same thing.
So this is an affidavit, which is a sworn statement that someone makes under penalty of perjury.
But an affidavit is.
I, Michael R. Bartells of Washington District of Columbia, being duly sworn to poses affirm upon oath.
I was in the group chat.
To my knowledge, the Restore Young Republican group chat is the same group that Politico has attempted to obtain.
I was on August 16th, 2025, the executive secretary of the New York Young Republican Club.
I was demanded to provide a full log of the Restore YR chat by Gavin Wax over a dispute about related matters on August 16th, 2025.
The demand was made via telephone and, to my knowledge, was not recorded.
When I attempted to resist that demand after providing some of the requested information, Wax threatened my professional standing and raised the possibility of potential legal action related to an alleged breach of a non-disclosure agreement.
My position within the New York Republican club was directly threatened.
After this conversation, when I did not provide the logs, I was removed from access for most Young Republican communications channels, leadership chats, and his company email.
Multiple contacts also began to receive alleged details of my personal life from Wax.
After these events took place, I provided Gavin Wax' associate, Nathan Berger, with the archived logs of the group of the group text.
I did not have definitive knowledge of what happened to the logs after that point, blah, blah, blah.
I did not give the logs to Politico under penalty of perjury.
And that's him saying, hey, this is for real.
This is the facts because I'll go to court over this.
This is the truth.
So like what I get from all this, and I'll pull up Gavin Wax here.
I'll go ahead and pull that up right now.
What I get from this is it's the same political, like muck-raking, wheel and dealing stuff that's always been done, but it's done in the modern context, right?
And if you're in one of these political groups and you're a group chat with like the other heads of the young Republicans, it seems a bit foolish, but at the same time, you know, here's my thing.
The chat's bad, whatever.
Ultimately, there's going to be more hate on the people that released them and tried to make a bone off of it than the people that made the chats.
And that's the world we live in now because everyone's starting to understand the internet.
But here's the thing: like, I'm looking at people coming out as Republicans, um, and you see, like, a bunch of these congressmen, like, condemning because they have to publicly say, like, this isn't the face.
But don't you think this makes the Republican Party look bad in the eyes of like not only just Democrats, but independent people?
I can understand the perspective of people who would be like, okay, this pisses me off.
Like, this is the face of Republicans.
These people, this is how they grow.
Like, this is a small subset.
There's no way that the entire Republican demographic all talks this way in certain aspects.
Like, you're looking at a bunch of basically college kids in a group chat.
I mean, when I was in high school, I don't know about you, but like me and my friends used to say some wild shit in group chats, just like as a joking matter.
And like they would say, here's the thing.
They would say things that people would consider racist as towards to me, but like you can take lighthearted and joking because then you fire back and call them a cracker or something like that.
At the end of the day, but look, here's, here's the thing: someone fucks up, someone says something stupid, they say something bad, whatever.
Do we excommunicate them forever?
No, we don't do that.
I don't believe in that.
I believe people have a chance in free society to ultimately goof around.
If you're in politics, probably not a good idea at the end of the day, but to come after these people, like they're treated like they committed a crime.
They get a giant hit piece written about them, you know.
And like, look, here's the thing: people are profiting off of it.
They're getting career advancement that these people aren't getting because of what happened.
So, like, what I see it ultimately as you have people that are aligned.
You have like this Gavin guy in the city group, and then you have the kind of like county or country young Republican groups.
And the people in the city group who pretend that they're a part of like the same club as these guys, they take this opportunity to get ahead on their own people at the cost of their own organization.
Right.
This tarnishes the organization's name at the end of the day, but they make the calculations like, Yeah, I'm going to screw my boys for profit.
But I also, the other thing I see as a problem is let's take the macro level argument and you just think about like the frame of mind or like the whole encompassing like idea of like what these people represent.
Let's say these people do eventually get into positions of power.
There is a certain level of like maybe they grow out of it, but there's also a baseline of like biases that they could be creating for themselves that lets them dictate their policies, right?
We're having, we're having a, we're having a constructive argument here.
It's good.
It's good.
VP vice president JD Vance defended the young Republicans against the political hit piece against them supplied by Gavin Wax, calling the public outcry pearl clutching.
Vance pointed to the Democrat Jay Jones leaked text in which he fantasized about murdering his political opponents as far worse.
Yeah, I mean, like, look at this.
Here's the difference between like the real tone difference, right?
Where you got people kind of like trying to be silly, even if the content is fucked up.
And then you've got someone here that's like really like deep and dark.
Yeah, actually, I wanted to understand this text a little bit more.
So this is just JD Vance trying to provide a counter argument, just saying like the Dems are just as bad and this person's in a position of power.
But the person who's sent this text message that JD Vance is referring to, his name is Jay Jones.
He's like the former Virginia state delegate who ran, who once ran for attorney general.
And he's part of like the Democratic side.
And so these messages were sent back in like 2022 by somebody called Carrie Coyner.
And they were a Republican delegate for in the Virginia House.
And then she's basically calling him out on these texts.
And so in like this exchange, Jones just made a shocking comment about like Todd Gilbert, who was the Republican speaker of the Virginia House and his wife, Jennifer Gilbert, who is being mentioned here.
And essentially, he's just implying that Jennifer Gilbert's children should die, trying to make like a political point that like well, he's implying her children should die because only when people feel pain personally do policy.
It's like if like a white person says the N-word when singing a song, they get basically the same level of reprimanding as if the person who actually meant to say it as a derogatory frame of reference.
I don't, here's the, not to get off the weeds, but like, you know, I know there's a large population of like African Americans and black people that like really get offended by, you know, other demographics saying the N-word in a song and they're like, that's our word.
But look, at the end of the day, we've entered into an age where I talk about this a lot on various broadcasts.
I also talk about it on the gray area.
When you had the advent of Trump coming into the political scene in 2015, everything changed because before that, all the campaigns, all the elections, all the parties before, it was establishment Democrat and then establishment Republican.
And Republican was like cut taxes and then war.
And the Democrats were like higher taxes, but maybe we don't like the war so much.
And that was the dialectic.
And there, it's a uniparty.
They were the same.
When Trump came in, you asked everyone first, second, and third time he ran, why are you voting for Trump or why are you interested in Trump?
They would tell you, I want a wrecking ball for the system.
I just want someone that's going to go in there and break everything because he's different.
He's quote unquote, not a politician.
He's certainly a politician now.
Now, 100%.
I agree with you there.
But that was the thinking that really fueled his rise to power because it wasn't a Democrat or Republican thing.
It was a populist thing.
And now we've really returned after a decade of Trump.
We have returned to the age of the uniparty of the establishment Democrat and the establishment Republican.
And that is what these young Republican people represent anyway.
It's the Dick Cheneys.
It's the John McCain's.
It's the Mitt Romney.
It's that spirit that's come back, right?
And these kids, they didn't fit that spirit, so they had to go.
Well, it's that, but then also you're conditioning the environment for how you want these people to behave in the system itself.
It's crazy because if you think about it, like there's there are former, there's, there's a bunch of people that are in positions of power and Congress and state legislation that have gone through like these organizations like the Young Republican Party.
And you just look at it like a mini club where there's expectations and a certain linear pathway that you have to follow in order to get into that position in power.
And it's almost like you're curating the political system from such an early age to where that's how this is.
It's like a cell culture that you're going to have.
That's what it all seems like.
And, you know, the Democrats, on the high level, you know, it's, it's very inorganic and it's manicured as well.
But like these grassroots events, it's just a bunch of like lib cards crashing out at the end of the day.
And kind of rise to rises to the top as he rises to the top.
And that's why, you know, you see like the Zorhan Mamdani stuff, that's why they have more success on that state and local level is because it is at the end of the day, it is more original.
No, so you're really the event that I went to was like, this is when I, when I say like literal boomers, I mean there's people that were like walking with canes in there.
Like it's just like all the people that vote on like your local issues and have like their own like system in which they're like they they're they represent each district.
Let's say Travis County and Austin has a bunch of little cells.
Like, you know, how, you know, when you have like the House of Republicans or how like the Congress is made up of, you've got districts.
That's kind of how the system works.
But like, I didn't get the elitist perspective.
It was like, it was a bunch of stuff that like you and I, being young people, don't really give a shit about, but they are actually macro level issues that affect that city.
And these people are kind of like steering because they're the only ones voting on that stuff.
And, but the thing in general is, is like most black people are Democratic because they were raised in the Northeast and a lot of these bigger populations.
And so like, you'll notice like the Republicans are more made up of like these boomers because they're in the more rural areas.
They've got like, they're not urbanized like the rest of it.
So it was just weird.
The where the thing that you're talking about, the elitist thing came in was that one guy who tried to recruit me and be like, hey, young man, you should definitely join our club.
We've got mixers.
You can find yourself a little conservative, pretty lady, and dance on with her.
Like it was just like, that was where I got like the elitist.
And he had like this business card that was like black metal.
Ooh, oh, yes.
And it was like gold plated.
And it just like said his whole credentials and stuff and like how to contact.
And that's the disingenuous part, but he learned that behavior, right?
Well, I mean, that's salesmanship, you know, and like whenever someone's working you, you want to get away from them generally.
Like, unless there's like mutual benefit or like symbiosis, whenever whenever someone comes up to you in a suit trying to sell you something, you're like, eh, maybe, maybe, maybe not.
Maybe calm down, especially like not necessarily selling you like a product, but selling you a service.
Like, hey, I can help you out.
You just come help me, you know, because they're trying to get something out of you.
And I do want to give love to the other guy who like was starting his own chapter.
He happened to be there and I did go to some of his meetings.
Like not all of these chapters, like I said, it's like a fraternity, right?
You've got the larger overarching organization.
And then each cell runs its own thing.
So like you can start a new chapter.
And this guy and a group of his buddies had real intentions to start like a real grassroots, like do it proper because they knew what the existing Travis County young Republicans and how it was just like a big old frat party with a bunch of like young people and just cesspool of people just trying to like get on each other and just like the melting pot of, you know, all that.
But they were trying to do like real grassroots perspective of trying to grow a branch for like the perspective of like creating real change without the slop that these other organizations were doing.
So I can't just say it's all bad.
There are good parts in it.
It's just that I don't I haven't been deep enough to really understand how the whole thing.
If you try to do it the right way, you hit a wall at a certain point because you step on somebody's toes who is making or benefiting from doing the wrong thing.
So let's take a few questions from the listeners that scroll up in the chat a little bit.
And then let's kind of, we got a couple more things to discuss here.
And we'll kind of go into free flow, talk a little supplements, talk a little current events, news, war news, stuff going on.
If you got a question for us, you want something, you want us to cover something soon, we're happy to do it.
I'm disgusted as what has happened to Infowars.
Shit makes me sick to my stomach.
Makes me sick too.
I am going to have to start at some point.
I got to get this done before the end of the year.
I have to rewatch the entire trial and I have to talk to lawyers.
I have to learn the legality, everything, the science of everything.
I know the factoids in my head, but I don't have it all laid out.
Just kind of like the Gaza issue and the Ukraine issue.
I have to have a manila folder that's like this thick.
It's just filled with like, these are the facts.
These are the, this is the argument.
This is the information.
What was done to us was very, very wrong.
But as I look into it more and as I do more research, it is a thing, as it were, like all the damning clips, they're just buried in this mountain of evidence that I have to sift through.
And that's fine.
I got to do my due diligence.
And that's why y'all watch the show is for information and for reporting and ultimately like discovery and delivery of stuff like this.
But it's just going to take a little while.
But yes, it is fucked indeed.
To what Tim was saying about the people being NPCs, these guys are not yeno.
Don't know what that means.
Thank you, Honey Badger.
We don't have a racism problem.
We have a cultural problem in America.
We have a class problem in America.
People are too broke.
That's the issue.
No one has any money.
When you have no money, they make groups of people fight each other.
Dude, like I want to get like a freaking gas station pizza.
Was the worst pizza i've ever had.
It's a little personal like to slice thing was like 15 bucks and like, in the grand scheme of things, like you would say like 15 bucks oh, but like 15 bucks in like a normal sense should get you an entire piece of pizza, that entire pizza that's like a large and actually tastes way better than this.
It was like five dollars for a lemonade gas was like five dollars and i'm like what the?
Yeah, i'm like I don't understand how people are surviving off of the wages and there's no extra money at the end of the day to be able to like make movements, to do whatever you need to outside and like people are just surviving.
Yeah, but it it really was a lot of the older people in the casinos just like fucking hitting this, hit me again, hit me again, and they're like smoking and they're in their little like little wheelchair thing, automatic wheelchair guys, just like, not even sitting in the chair, just hitting the button from the side, like just hit me up, this is gonna get me going, like it was just, it's just interesting to see, but it was an older demographic, because you can see like okay, those are the people that probably have a little bit of money right,
and the younger people are just not able to even sustain that type of thing.
Yeah, they were in power, but I mean all this accelerated really under Joe Biden, the throwback Info Wars videos Rex has been posting are making me sad.
Tell the old man we say thank you, I will.
He got.
He got a little grumpy about the one where I have him walking shirtless through the office.
He got a little grumpy about that one, but I was like look, they're like 10 years old, i'm gonna put a few of them out.
I want to see him first and i'm like all right okay, and like i'll post a few more, but like it's all, it's all fun, it's.
And the thing about Trump that's been really disturbing to see is that he's just, he's willing to make up with his enemies and just like operate on the same team with them as long as he's allowed to be the leader.
And like that, that's the real thing we notice about the Trump administration is he goes along to get along.
As long as he can be the big cheese and be important and have people kiss his butt, that's all the guy wants.
That's all that's important to Donald Trump at the end of the day.
I was fairly supportive at the beginning because I was like, hey, you know, Andrew Cuomo is a rapist and he killed grandma and he's like the worst person ever.
And hey, you know, a Democrat's going to win anyway.
Even though these people politically on paper don't make money from like a salary standpoint, you think about the amount of connections and things that they get from like pacts.
They get like a bunch of support from companies because these companies know, you know, if I can get this person on my payroll, I can decide to do whatever I want.
And I basically get my agendas pushed.
So like all these people are the same because they know they're going to make some money.
And I'm not saying everybody is like that, but there are some genuine people that might be trying to do the right thing.
But majority, they get in and then they see how much of a mess it is.
And they're like, all right, let's just fucking, I don't, I haven't got time for it.
So, damn, there are a lot of good clips for this that we could have just rolled through, but I guess we can't do that anymore because technology doesn't.
No, it's like everyone imagines they have like a little camera following them and they're like, okay, what can I do to get my moment of fame in this moment?
The problem I have with all of this is like, okay, we're roasting the Democrats right now, but like the Republicans do the same thing just in their own capacity.
Trump is literally going back and just saying, okay, we're going to do this.
And then, you know, what's happening now is the Democrats are trying to push as much, you know, chaos and showing like, oh, the Republicans are doing this and this is how they raise their people.
So that way when midterms come around, they can get their congressional seats back and then also set themselves up for like Newsome coming in like fucking 2028.
And basically the Republicans have another reset again.
I mean, this is what our founding fathers were afraid of, guys.
At the end of the day, you guys should go watch the clips that we have on it.
But like the intentions for the founding fathers, the reason why some of these people didn't want a centralized system was because they were afraid of stuff like this.
She's a complete and total disaster who tried running against Katie Hochel for governor, only got 1% of the votes in polls and quit.
She then went back to her witch hunt against President Donald J. Trump and others.
I like how it's in the quotation.
Until this gum is removed from the Attorney General's office, no company will move to New York and few companies will be using New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ for going public.
So he's just roasting her.
Yeah, I mean, look, she, all right.
Letitia James just laid down the gauntlet.
She declared she'll use her office to fight against Donald Trump's administration.
Like, let's say you just go into the political system.
Do you think it's possible to go in there with like a squeaky, clean history and then not have anyone dig anything up like and be able to use that as extortion?
Someone made $190 million while the crypto markets were crashing yesterday in light of tariffs that seem to have been preempted by a very specific trader.
We're going to get into it.
I want to be clear that I'm not accusing anyone of a crime here.
Insider trading specifically relates to securities.
We've been pretty clear that crypto, especially Bitcoin and Ethereum are not securities.
So I don't even know what this is.
I think this is all legal, kind of.
I don't think it should be, as you'll see.
But the question is, what did this guy know?
Okay.
How did somebody make $190 million while everyone else was losing their shirts yesterday?
If you don't know, there was one of the biggest crashes we've ever seen in crypto.
And someone came in 24 hours before and started placing shorts against the market.
Short is just when you bet that the underlying asset is going to go down in price and you will make money on that.
Now, this all started October 9th at 1639 GMT time.
They start accumulating this Bitcoin short.
They initially put, and this is not chump change, guys.
This isn't under your couch, you know, pennies.
This is $80 million that initially gets deposited and they start placing shorts against Bitcoin.
Now, the amount is unusual, but that itself is not the unusual part.
Then we have Ethereum starts to get shorted at 349 GMT.
Interesting.
$30 million gets deposited into this account.
Immediately start placing major bets that the market is going to go down.
Why is this significant?
Well, because at 1457, this is only a few hours later, like 12 hours later, Trump posts on Truth Social that they are calculating a massive increase on Chinese tariffs.
This is due to a rare earth mineral dispute.
But the point is, nobody knew this is coming except, of course, maybe this guy, because he's already got these multi-million dollar shorts.
Now, where I think this goes from suspicious to downright diabolical is the fact that at this point, the market dips a little bit because you have these threats of tariffs.
But the person does not start closing out their shorts yet, which I think is very interesting.
If you place this huge short bet and then the president tweets something like this, you would think you would close out your order.
But not only do they not do that, not only do they not close out their short, they continue to place short bets against Bitcoin.
In fact, this person continues to short Bitcoin all the way up till 2049, 23 GMT.
Why is that significant?
Ladies and gentlemen, it's because 2049 is the last short he places, okay?
2050 GMT.
A minute later, one minute later, Trump announces they're considering an 100% tariff on China, which of course tanks the market.
And this person makes literally $190 million in 24 hours, meaning the guy was placing shorts up to one minute before Trump announces this big, huge 100% tariffs.
And then, by the way, immediately as if he knew something, we start seeing the shorts close only 30 minutes later.
So both the ETH and Bitcoin short closed 30 minutes later.
By the way, these accounts were funded by the same people.
This is the same person making these trades.
So to recap, this person not only times the same day that a big announcement was made, he makes these $110 million short against crypto.
He then also conveniently waits past the initial like tweet about tariffs until the most significant announcement, which is the 100% tariffs.
And he's shorting it up till one minute before that guys.
This is some of the most blatant crime is legal moments we've seen, $190 million.
unidentified
And the question is, is anything going to be done?
The reason why they are able to know all this information, the way crypto works, it's a little bit different than like other money markets.
Like if you're banking with an official bank, yeah, your account isn't out there.
Your bank account isn't out there for everybody to see.
But in crypto, you have a crypto wallet and the crypto wallet has an ID and that ID is basically in the system and anyone can basically take that ID and search the transactions.
And the whole purpose of that is to keep a certain level of transparency.
And the whole thing is like, the whole thing is systemized in a way where you can essentially look at who's wallet.
No matter what presidency has come into power, they've all done something to this level of grifting.
And if you just look at the Biden administration, his son was like making deals with like all these foreign countries and making like millions and billions of dollars and be like, daddy's going to go do something for you if you push this deal.
Israeli finance minister Bezazel Smotrich vowed on Tuesday there'll be Jewish settlements in Gaza despite the ceasefire deal that Israel signed last week.
The Israeli minister who also holds a position in the defense ministry that gives him power to expand Jewish settlements in the West Bank claims settlements in Gaza were necessary for Israel's security.
So we have patience, but we have determination and faith.
And with God's help, we will continue to see these series of victories and the big miracles.
Smotrich said at the event, Smotrich has been one of the leading proponents of cleansing Gaza of his Palestinian population, establishing Jewish settlements in the territory, an idea that has significant support within the Israeli government.
This is the guy that said, yes, the demolition phase is done.
That's the most expensive part of the reconstruction.
We've played the clip before.
So like this, this Gaza situation is very tenuous.
It's a very, very tenuous thing.
And they released the prisoners and then they released the hostages.
I've been screaming this to the mountaintops since well before this even happened.
Like everyone's thinking, like they list the number of hostages and they think that all those people are alive.
You got to understand, Israel went in and basically destroyed the entire ecosystem of like food, water, everything.
This isn't like they're being kept in like a prison like here in America where they're getting like three meals a day and they're being like treated very well.
I mean, you're talking about terrorists that essentially are keeping them like underground.
And some of these people could probably easily die from some type of like disease, something that is just like the mistreatment.
Like, why are our weapons being used to commit this mass murder?
Why is it the biggest issue?
Why is it, you know, like our president, instead of focusing on America and American problems, American issues and helping Americans, he's over in Ukraine giving Zelensky hundreds of billions.
He's over in Gaza giving them, or in Israel, giving them all our weapons.
And even in our own hemisphere, this is another interesting article that I have pulled up.
We keep striking these boats off the coast of Venezuela.
The president also claimed that the strike killed six meral narco-terrorists, bringing the total number of people extrajudiciously executed by the U.S. military since the bombing campaign started from September 2nd to 27.
The Trump administration has not presented evidence to back up the allegations.
Okay, so here's the thing with these types of things.
You're talking about 27 people.
That's like a drop in the ocean in terms of the systemic problem that they have.
They're not just smuggling drugs via water.
Like they're not just going over the Gulf.
You've got land operations.
Like this stuff gets funneled through the rest of Central America.
And there's no way that this stops the problem.
What it is, is it's just an optic.
It's basically to just say, hey, I promise certain things, America first.
We're going to do these things to make everything look like we're solving the problem because we don't want these people dying from fentanyl and having cocaine overdoses and all this other stuff.
But this isn't solving.
You have to go from the country and it has to come out of the government system that's operating there to crush these organizations.
Yeah, that's that's fine, but nuclear dirty bomb, but you're talking about like the ultimate, like, just you know, fuck shit up situation where they just like there's no winning at that point.
If you're gonna go and win, you're gonna go and use like other sorts of systems that you have in place that are less nuclear.
The thing is, let's say, let's say Russia uses nuclear weapons and they let, let's say they go and bomb Ukraine, right?
Nuclear fallout.
Do people understand how far radioaction activity goes from a location of where you're bombing this stuff at?
There's nowhere in Europe, like when Chernobyl blew up, that radiation went across everywhere.
It wasn't just in that region, it was all across Europe.
So they're all in the same thing where it affects everybody and they're not going to kill their own people.
Uh, well, I mean, if I, if I'm Zelensky and I do the right thing, which is to just like surrender and just say, hey, I want to go back to the Istanbul agreement.
Uh, Donetsk, Luhansk, and Karsan can vote on whatever they're going to do and they're going to vote to join Russia.
We relinquish our claim on that land.
The neo-Nazis and his own government, they kill him.
I don't think there will ever be a case scenario where anybody's ever going to use a nuclear weapon.
We saw what happened with Japan.
Everybody was horrified.
We got to see the it's just a dick swinging contest just to see who's got the bigger the bigger gun and the bigger blow up.
But everybody understands mutual destruction.
It's just I've heard Putin say that, oh, we've got nuclear weapons and we've got these things and like we're going to use them if you attack.
Remember when Biden made that risky call to like shoot missiles into or give Ukrainians the long-range missiles and they used them to hit like certain assets in Russia.
And what did Russia say at that point?
They said, if you give them these weapons, we will basically go to war with you.
And what happened?
Everything is still the same.
And I'm positive this happened.
I'm pretty sure this happened where they did use these long-range missiles.
Just the some sort of terror attack that the Iranians do, quote unquote, weapons of mass destruction play.
Well, like, yeah, they'll say, like, either like we found the enriched uranium and they're building a bomb and we have to kill them now, which was Netanyahu's whole line, like right before the 12-day war story.
And I do comment because the thing is, is like, I'll look at your DMs.
I'm good with talking to people.
I do enjoy interacting with you guys.
So like I'm, I'm small and I don't plan on like being one of those people that just ignores a bunch of people.
So like this is a really good opportunity.
And there's a lot of you that I'll remember like however far the show goes.
We're planning on taking this very far.
So like just, I want you guys to be part of the process and follow me along with the journey because this is something that's important to me.
And it's also something that I love to do for you guys.
So yeah, give me a follow and then also follow Gray Area Talks, which is that is our main platform where you're going to find the longer form content and you're going to find the longer clips that we've done.
There'll be like 20 minute segments, 17 minute segments that you can go on there and watch some of our larger streams.
And those are typically the ones that we do on Sunday that have a little education to them.
