Rex Jones hosts The Gray Area solo for the first time on Wednesdays, addressing U.S. Coast Guard seizures of Venezuelan oil tankers—Bella One and Sophia—linked to "narco-terrorism" funding, while criticizing elite-driven conflicts like Ukraine and Venezuela’s sanctions. He questions Trump’s absurd oil deal demand, mocks NATO hypocrisy (Starmer, Merz, von der Leyen), and scrutinizes $9B Minnesota fraud claims, dismissing whistleblower retaliation accusations as partisan. Rex debates ICE’s Minneapolis incident, defends the agent’s right to shoot but doubts excessive follow-up, and hints at Trump pardoning injuries. Previewing solo shows on Mondays/Fridays, he urges independent candidates to challenge aging leadership while teasing Aaron Baker’s anti-Zionist run and a Muslim Middle East expert for Sunday’s episode. [Automatically generated summary]
Tim is not feeling too good because of the overseas travel and just a bunch of work stuff he's had to do.
He wanted to take a day off.
And we just now added Wednesday to our schedule.
So it will just be me today relaying some cool information to you guys, talking about some pretty deep stuff, I think, and just going through the news and doing a good old-fashioned news blitz.
So I'm going to go ahead and shout out the first people in stream.
Shout out Trans Tim Kennedy.
Shout out the peoples.
Shout out Honey Badger.
Shout out Timothy Lasley.
How are y'all doing tonight?
Tim's recovering from the beating that he took.
No, man.
I mean, we just had an argument, right?
And like, we passionately disagree on that topic.
And I hope to change his mind.
I really truly do.
But it's moments like that that make the show great.
And in all honesty, like we just added Wednesday in as a new day.
It's been Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday.
All of y'all watching at this point are like core viewers.
So you know this.
Wednesday is a new day.
And we're adding it in for the new year.
I ate too much food.
That's how I'm doing Hollywood.
I ate too much food.
It's kind of sitting in my belly.
But uh, but yeah, guys, I got a good show for y'all tonight.
I got new emerging topics.
Of course, we're going to talk about the ICE incident where the lady, the white lady was in the car and the ICE agent was kind of maybe sort of in front of the car.
And then another one was there and then she ran over.
She ran him over.
She could have killed him.
She almost killed him.
I heard my dad say similar stuff on the show today.
My opinion of it.
Is still very inconclusive because, like what do I know?
Number one, like i've seen two videos right, and like when Kirk got shot, I watched that thing like 50 times, maybe more.
Right because I I was trying to figure out what happened.
But with this it's just like another horror and i'm just like well, someone else got brained I necessarily am.
I don't want to ruin my day by looking at it right now.
Right, like I mean and that's the problem with x, you know, and i'm a big fan, right like I, I enjoy the liberation of social media and whatnot and people being able to actually free speech post.
But there's a lot of like killings, gang violence assassination, beat down attack, like there's a lot of craziness that you would usually only see on, like 4chan, and I like as a kid I was like whoa, 4chan has crazy stuff on it, and now it's just x.
So you know, it is what it is and it speaks to where our society is at this point.
But I just didn't want to watch the footage for no reason.
I'd rather review it on show with you guys, because I mean she get shot in the head, so like she died right, I think she, she got to be dead.
So that happened and that's relevant, like it's a sad thing.
That happened, of course, and it's it's bad for the nation, bad for the country, but that on the domestic side of things, I don't want to call anyone's death slop, but like it'll be turned into moral and political culture slop on both sides and they'll talk about this instead of the uh United States and another insane overreach of its power which, like we frankly we, we just don't have.
And uh, just because we can do something doesn't mean that we should do it.
We are now.
We're seizing oil tankers going from Venezuela to Russia.
We're seizing them and a lot of times on the show i'm very congested today a lot of the times on this show what we discuss has to do with the local, but we also discuss a lot of international stuff as well.
And talking about the oil specifically we, we don't have that.
We don't have the right to do things like this.
Guys, and I lost my train of thought a little bit there, but i'm going to get into it all.
Just give me a second.
I'm going to get my train of thought back.
I'm tired today.
I'm tired today.
We're going to do this.
We're not going to miss a wednesday and i'm not going to miss a monday or a friday going forward into the show.
Um, I won't do it, but um yeah, go ahead and throw this up on screen, maybe i'll remember what I was talking about.
The U.S. Coast Guard sees the motor tanker Bella 1 in the North Atlantic and the stateless motor tanker Sophia near the Caribbean, both linked to sanctioned Venezuelan oil trade funding, what officials called narco-terrorism.
These pre-dawn operations under Operation Southern Spear involve trafficking or tracking through evasion tactics like name changes and hole repainting with support from UK surveillance.
Okay, I'll keep reading it.
I remember the point I wanted to make.
And I'm sorry, guys.
I'm a little bit off my game tonight.
Started the stream later than usual.
But let me say it before I forget again, because I'm just like that, guys.
That's why I'm not like S tier at this or even A tier or even B tier, really.
But we make up these names for things and we paint this like avatar Star Wars narrative around them where it's like you have one side and they got a cute like furry guy and they got like a smuggler guy and they got like a princess and there's a guy with the lightsaber and they're in like a cool little gambler ship and they're fighting a death star and it's all evil all the time, right.
And this is something to me where it's just so elementary like to understand that this is not true but by names that I i'm sure the CIA comes up with.
These is psychological warfare and it's been a really excellent psychological warfare, and it didn't start here.
It started in Ukraine and it's continued on to this point.
The ghost fleet this the, the stealth fleet the the, the phantom ships they had.
They use all this language.
This is what I was trying to remember.
Guys, my apologies.
And every time I see it I just laugh because I know there's some guy in like Staten Island or some, who's like reading a newspaper and it's like, oh they're gonna, they got a ghost fleet over there.
And people genuinely believe this garbage, because ooh, scary words, scary language, and I I my hope for the show and just my career in just broadcasting and media in general and like this is why me and Tim get along, to be honest is like we want to bring information to people.
Now, we may disagree on information or what the information means, and we do strongly disagree on a lot, as you saw yesterday if you were tuned in but at the core of the show, it's about getting people information.
It's like that's that's the number one thing is providing people value, giving you that value, and I mean that.
I mean that because I would not like you to sit on your phone and watch me in the same way that you might watch.
Uh, you know, Tim Pool does good reporting, sometimes by showing like good, relevant news articles, so I don't want to diss him or use him as a bad example.
I don't want you to watch me as like uh, I don't know like a Matt Walsh or like a Daily WIRE person.
Right, I want you to watch me and have a fun time watching.
That's number one.
That also like gives you value, like we're all having fun here, like it's a fun community, a fun chat.
Uh people uh Schizoe, Crashy out sometimes people having fun.
I got old ladies reposting the stream.
Shout out to you, to you guys.
Uh, I love my grandma, I love you too.
Y'all are phenomenal.
I'm so surprised at the variety of Listeners that we have.
And I'm really proud of what me and Tim have built, right?
So, like, I just see as an overwhelming positive.
The establishment wants the pretext for a draft.
Ooh, in reference to what?
Either in Russia or South America.
Yeah.
I mean, here's the thing, right?
We're never putting U.S. boots on the ground in Ukraine, besides, of course, the CIA and the people that like run missiles and do stuff like that.
But that's all like secret and whatnot.
We'll never publicly do that ever.
We're never publicly going to do that.
The South America stuff does make me a little bit worried because I mean, Trump's bloodlust is up.
The operation, which was like a 20 or like a two-hour snatch and grab operation, it went well according to standards, right?
It went as well as it could have gone.
But now he's making statements, and we'll get into a little bit of that in the show today.
We got into more of that on the last couple of shows.
They've talked about just owning the oil.
And now the number, I believe, that they're just going to take is 30%.
So there's a lot to get into there, and it requires a lot of research.
And I want to get a guest on.
I want to get a South American or Venezuelan guest.
Number one, I want to get a caller, number one, that just can call in and talk at a high political level about these things and make it make sense to people.
And then, number two, I want to get someone, I know he's not Venezuelan, but someone like a Pepe Escobar or someone like this on the show who could really explain to us the like the feelings of the people in these places.
They really matter, right?
Because like you think about, you think about the U.S. and everyone's always like, oh, the American government was never tyrannical.
We'd rise up against them, right?
And like, maybe, maybe that is true to a certain extent.
I hope it is.
It's the stated reason why we have the Second Amendment, right?
But these South American countries have been through a lot of real revolutions to fight against imperial powers, just like we did way back in the day.
And then socialist revolutions and all kinds of things.
They have a strong populist will.
And the United States can seek to manipulate that through feeding cartels or feeding parameter groups in the area.
But I just think at this point, like we're so much the bad guy around the globe that we've almost, by telling the fake Star Wars story about everyone else, we've become the empire and they've actually, they've got that like positive social capital, whether you agree with them or not, as like the rebels.
Like the global south is rising.
BRICS is rising.
And oh, America stock market.
Kid, you don't know what you're talking about.
Every time I say something about good about BRICS or about Russia or China or India or any of these countries, like economies and just capabilities and power, I'll have someone tell me, I don't know what I'm talking about.
Like we have all the secret technology, XYZ, blah, blah, blah.
I don't buy any of that bullshit.
I don't.
Like we're still doing okay as far as like innovation and advancement goes.
A lot of that is very, very, very precariously balanced on a knife and it has to do with our resources.
If you look at Taiwan and there's other examples and our overinvestment in aircraft and aircraft carriers instead of missile systems, which like the Yamani people, the Houthis is kind of like a pejorative.
So I'm not using, I'm not trying to use it.
The Yamani people, they were able to launch missiles at our ships and they were able to make our ships move out of the way.
And then F-16 falls over the side.
So think about that.
You know, like how much that cost them?
Like quarter million or something or less to shoot the missile.
And then God knows how much that plane costs, it falls overboard.
Not only that, that's like a national embarrassment to us, right?
But we just discount that.
We move on.
We do more stuff.
We're the greatest.
XYZ.
No one's ever going to call our bluff.
And even if they called our bluff, we'd have the strongest hand in America.
Fuck yeah.
And you're just a civilian.
What are you talking about?
And like, that is the dumbest thing ever because the people in politics are civilians, quote unquote, and they run everything, right?
Like Trump was a draft dodger, right?
So like that argument, and I have, I've literally have heard that from people.
It's like, well, yeah, I mean, the commander in chief is a fucking civilian, dude.
Like, most of the time, there are a few presidents, but I mean, most of the time it's a lawyer, bro.
So, I mean, there's stuff like that that just blows my mind.
Not to get too far off into a tangent, but just the public's knowledge of Russia, China, but specifically Russia and their capabilities, and then how much we're supposed to hate them and then how much they think that they hate us.
It's crazy.
Like, I met this girl, fine girl, like, I don't know, like a year ago, just like at a friend's house for a second, right?
And she was talking about Trump and like in a positive way.
And like in Austin, Texas, you usually don't hear a girl with tattoos talk positively about Trump.
So I was like, oh, huh, like, what are your politics?
What do you think?
And it was at a point where like, you remember when Trump told Putin to like watch, like, you better fucking watch himself or something like that.
Like, he used like an F word or like a curse word against Putin.
And at that point, I started having urges like a werewolf, like trying to morph to talk about politics and to just like do like word attack.
And I realized I couldn't do it.
I realized I shouldn't do it.
I realized it would be very improper to do it because these people just don't have knowledge.
Like they don't have conception of the world or anything about the world or how it works, like governmental systems, world power, fluctuations in world power, like flashpoint events, watershed moments, all of it.
Like they, it's just all TikTok or Instagram real brain.
And then when you reach the limits of that, it's literally it's what they ate that morning.
And then it's it.
That that's it.
I don't mean to discriminate against women.
That's men and women that are politically uninformed, right?
But then the person will know everything about, oh, the car, the GTR, the 3X, 9,000.
Oh my god, oh my God, this is the greatest thing I've ever seen.
And they'll know everything about everything in regards to that.
And that's cool and that's impressive.
But if you know that much about something, better be able to fix it, right?
And that's my point.
It's a lot of these people, they don't have like, they're not interested in anything that's not really surface level.
And like, that's okay for a lot of people.
And I wish I had more, like, I wish I had more regular interests, right?
I'm just like a news junkie and this is all I do and all I consume.
Really, all I care about is following world events.
And that's why I had to come back and do the show with Tim is because I had to do this.
I had to get it out of my system.
It's like a getting the monkey off your back type of thing.
It's actually, it's so relaxing to do the show.
Like, really, I have no idea.
It's, it's so relaxing because I grew up going to a studio and filming and doing reports and going live and doing Man on the Street and whatever, but I was working somewhere for someone.
I was wearing a suit and I like I had reports that I had to do, right?
Now I'm sitting here.
I'm 23 years old.
I'm chilling.
My dog's in the other room.
I'm just sitting at the desk hashing it out with you guys.
And that's super fun to do.
And if you want to see me solo going forward in the future, it's going to be Rex X gray area Mondays and Fridays.
I'm going to figure out the time.
It'll probably be more variable, but we're going to do more slop wars stuff.
We're going to do more supplement facts, supplement knowledge.
We may even like split the days up that way and do one-on-one.
Also, of course, breaking news and key topics.
I want to give those to you guys.
You should reach out to Pablo Escobar's son.
He's on X. I'm just thinking of him and Narcos.
I'm thinking of his kid in Narcos.
That would be dope, man.
Comment under my most recent post and let me know what his at is.
I would love to have him on.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
Most of social media and politics has been taken over by the military.
WWE Kabuki.
Nice camo.
Thanks, Academy, bro.
I do all my shopping at Academy.
There are a couple brands that I found over the years online where I'll order shirts from them.
I got some like polo shirts and whatnot.
I also just got like if you go to Ross or Goodwill, you can hunt for like in Austin.
There are a lot of like really nice thrift stores, which I sadly haven't been to because I just don't give a shit.
But I should go in there one day and get some more Hawaiian shirts.
But yeah, welcome to the show, guys.
Welcome to the show.
Might as well actually cover some news.
I got into it and then I started to rant, but it's because I'm having such a good time with you guys tonight.
So U.S. Coast Guard seizes Venezuelan oil tankers in dual Atlantic operations.
The U.S. Coast Guard seized the motor tanker Bella One in the North Atlantic in the stateless motor tanker Sofia near the Caribbean, both linked to sanctioned Venezuelan oil trade funding what officials call narco-terrorism.
These pre-dawn operations like Operation Southern Spear involve tracking through evasion tactics like name changes and whole repainting with support from UK surveillance and multiple U.S. departments.
Hours later, President Trump, President Trump, announced a new oil deal requiring Venezuela to buy only American-made goods like agriculture and medical supplies.
Well, Russia condemned the actions but took no further steps.
So we'll scroll a little bit down.
Got Trump.
I have just been informed that Venezuela is going to be purchasing only American-made products with the money they received from our new oil deal.
These purchases will include, among other things, American agricultural products and American-made medicines, medical devices, and equipment to improve Venezuela's electric grid and energy facilities.
Okay, I know that's probably annoying.
In other words, Venezuela is committing to doing business with the United States of America as the principal partner.
A wise choice and a very good thing for the people of Venezuela.
I didn't have to kill more of you in the United States.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
And we got more slop.
So they're gonna, they have to buy only our products, but we don't make everything or hardly anything.
30 million people.
Can we make everything for Venezuela?
What does this even mean?
And this is the thing about politics: it used to at least make some sense.
This man right here has made politics make absolutely no sense at all.
And not even to mention the Greenland stuff, guys.
Not even to mention it.
And by the way, this is a short stream tonight.
I may take a couple callers if y'all are interested.
And the problem is with callers is like we put the number up and then we have the same like four or five people call in.
And there are a ton of people that interact with the show.
Like I see, I see you, Samantha.
You comment all the time.
I see Timothy Glassley.
I've seen you comment before.
I've seen Z-Arrow effect a trillion times, man, a trillion times in Trans Tim Kennedy, Ashley Rosegold.
I mean, here's the thing.
Like, if you, if you want to come on, if you want to call in, when we do the call-in portion, maybe we can do it earlier on some days.
I really want that to be a part of my show going forward on Monday and Friday.
So I want to be big on that, guys.
And we're just, it's a chill stream tonight.
I should have put that in the title chill stream, but I said holding down the fort.
So it's close enough, right?
Okay.
That's where we're in our comments.
And yeah, shout out to you, Nimrod Pod.
Without you, I mean, James Fishback, he's going on Tucker now.
James Fishback's doing Tucker.
I think you already did Tucker.
I saw a photo of them together.
So you like, that's that's huge.
Thank you so much for doing that.
I really do mean that.
I got to put my phone on Do Not Disturb and be a professional.
Like, we'll take calls after the first 30 minutes and we'll do that into the next like hour.
I'll take about a half hour of calls and I'll take about two or three calls during that period of time.
The hard thing is, is switching for yourself, which I kind of like, to be honest, but it just makes things difficult.
But when we do call-in portion, it usually is very late on in the stream.
I chat all the time, but I don't call in yet.
No, shout out to you, Honey Badger, of course.
Yeah, very chill stream.
But we can get into more of the news, more of the information from today.
And I'm not sure if this is confirmed, but breaking in response to the tanker seizure, Russia is threatening the United States with a missile strike.
Excuse me, forgive me about that.
A military response is necessary.
An attack with torpedoes and the sinking of several American ships said, Alexei, I'm going to try to say it.
I'm going to try to say it.
Zuhuravlov. Zuhuravlov.
Zuhuravlov?
I don't know.
I'm speaking weird tongues here now.
A deputy of the Russian state, Duma.
Very interesting.
I think this is just some missile footage or whatever, fear-mongering.
Fear porn.
It's all fear porn and slop.
That's all that's available.
This is real, though.
Vladimir Putin's nuclear warning to Europe.
Russia and U.S. have early warning systems.
Europe has none.
They're defenseless.
Our tactical nukes are four times stronger than Hiroshima's.
We have more than much more.
If war breaks out, Europe will burn first.
And I mean, like, this is the truth.
we'll talk about this more if heaven forbid it comes to some sort of strike everyone should understand Russia has an early warning system, a missile attack warning system.
The U.S. has it.
There is no such developed system anywhere else in the world.
Our tactical nuclear weapons are four times more powerful than the bombs the Americans used against Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
I mean, imagine by three to four times.
We possess significantly more of them both across the European continent.
And even if the Americans were forced to deploy theirs from the U.S., we would still maintain a substantial advantage.
If God forbid it comes to that, We sincerely hope it does not.
Then, instead of what you said about minimizing the victims in reality, casualties could potentially escalate indefinitely.
That's the first point.
Second, the Europeans must also consider if those with whom we engage in such conflicts cease to exist.
Will the Americans participate in this conflict at the level of strategic weapons or not?
Will we respond if they go tactical new?
I think the answer is no.
As far as Ukraine goes, as far as Ukraine goes, as far as Ukraine goes, I mean, if we, if they attack Germany, if they attack the UK, literally, of course, I think that would be, that's Article 5, and we would have no choice.
And that's why we should leave NATO is because those countries are drawing us into a 20, 30-year Russian conflict.
That's what they want.
It's their wet dreams.
It's their fantasy.
Keir Starmer, Friedrich Merce, Ursula von der Land, the unelected head of the EU Commission, all of them.
Even Maloney, the one, oh, oh, populist obeys, whatever.
You know, at least she said that she said that no Italian boots would be on the ground in Ukraine and no one would die.
So I'm going to hurt it even more if I try to do impressions.
And it's not even going to be that funny.
And people aren't even going to appreciate it.
So I'll just, I'll try to be serious.
Here's the thing.
I look at Putin and I'm like, that's a serious leader.
And then you look at the Europeans and what they have.
They're basically us, but worse and with no motion.
Like the United States, like we're still like big pimping.
Like we still have motion and energy.
And like we're still a superpower.
And other countries recognize this, right?
Europe has been strip mined.
Europe has been stealing from other nations for centuries.
Europe is bankrupt.
Everyone hates Europe because of the colonial period and whatnot.
Of course, we were the first to rebel against their evil rule, specifically the British Empire.
But everyone's sick of dealing with this shit.
And it's going to come a time where people realize and the true documentaries come out.
Like, I'm just talking about like maybe I want to be optimistic.
I want to say five years, but I'm not even going to say five years.
I'll say 10.
In 10 years, when it's common knowledge, the truth about the Ukraine war, kind of like the Afghanistan or Iraq war, or like people were for those, and now people realize it was bad.
Like there will come a time, and this is why I'm one of the reasons why I did the show, to be honest, is because my dad is known for making predictions and is known for being right.
I would like a couple feathers in my cap as well.
This will not be forgotten.
Just like Gaza, just like the genocide in Gaza, just like all the dead Palestinian children and women that were killed on their way to get food from an Israeli-controlled aid center, that's not going away either.
But the Ukraine war, especially, that is not Going away.
And I think that'll be the thing down the line.
I don't even know what the future of America or American politics looks like.
That'll be one of the events that's pointed to as to why we need to fix the government or we need a new government.
It's going to be one of the reasons because it was such a critical time for the country coming in after dealing with COVID, wasting all that money on COVID.
Of course, COVID, bioweapon, they tried to kill us anyway, CIA plot, whatever you want to call it, whatever you want to say about it.
Coming out of that time period, it was such an incredible betrayal to the American people to give all that fucking money to that little tyrant Zelensky so that he could drive around the Eurus and Kiev or Kiev or whatever the offensive way to say it is to a Ukrainian, Kiev or Kiev.
I think it's Kiev.
I think they don't like that one.
He's probably like, like he sold his country out so he could drive a Europe, a Euras in Kiev.
And he has been sold as the Luke Skywalker figure to not just millions of Europeans, but millions of Americans too.
This is a commonly held belief.
And people don't even know that the guy is literally Kevin Spacey.
He played the Ukrainian president on TV.
And then the neo-Nazis, after the Maidan coup with the help of Victoria Newland, they installed him as president.
And now he won't leave office.
It's illegal for him to be president.
His term ended.
He's a dictator.
And like, I know a lot of y'all have heard this before.
It should be common knowledge, but like a lot of people haven't heard this before.
A lot of people are like, but the Russians are evil.
They're so bad.
They're so bad.
Yeah, Russians are evil.
Ukrainians are evil.
Americans are like the most evil.
Like we're the most bad, maybe close to China, right?
You could say like hive mind, social credit score, slave mentality versus pirate, murder, kill, like that.
Those are the two extremes, right?
So like, which one is better necessarily?
They both oppress their own people.
They both surveil their own people.
They both lie to their own people.
One group seems to be happier than the other group, right?
And both groups honestly have the same governmental system where it's the government working with the big corporations, except we lie about it and they tell the truth about it.
Isn't that nice, right?
Like if the government could just come out and say, like, we wanted to make you mad about Zoro Mamdani, but like, we're actually communists.
Like, we're doing state communism right now, but we're just, we're allowing crony capitalism to exist within that system.
It's so hilarious.
Like, I'm not against people with money.
It would be nice to have money at some point.
There was a brief period of my time where I thought that we had some money.
And oh, how foolish I was.
And if this egg, you think you have anything, this is the moment it'll be taken from you.
Just a free fact for those listening in the audience.
But like, I remember cool houses.
I remember cool trips and stuff like that.
Stuff that now, like in my current financial situation, trying to make payroll, trying to make rent, and just like thinking about myself, my family, and my grandparents who are really struggling.
Like it's crazy how life can swing, but I don't think a person needs to be worth $700 billion.
I don't think that's right.
I think that you have to be very sick to get to that point, regardless of what your sickness is.
And hey, if it's Asperger's and you just have to have all the money in the world, like kudos to you, right?
And like, I'm happy.
Like, Elon let me back on the platform.
So like, it is what it is.
But all these people want to buy up all our media.
They want to buy up all the entertainment that we consume.
They want to buy up all our land.
They want to buy up all the education and make it mandatory for your kid to go to a public school and make homeschooling legal.
They want to promote abortion ultimately.
And yeah, so like Tim said, it just like so you can have a better future and prevent future deaths and future chaos, chaos.
And it's the right thing to do.
If you got a hedge, you got to trim it, right?
And I guess that's the modern view of the world and society writ large and what it means to be a evolved human.
I disagree.
I disagree.
And I just, I think being pro-humanity means being pro all of humanity to a certain extent, right?
Of course, people that are guilty, people that are monsters, we exclude them from that.
But people that haven't hurt anybody, people that are pro humanity, pro honestly, pro-Christ, pro-all of it.
I just like, I think being pro-humanity means being pro-Christ.
Like that, that's how we all should operate because then we would all love each other and have zero problems.
Of course, we still have some problems and we'd still fight.
But ultimately, man is made in the image of God.
We're all here for a divine reason.
It's very important that we're here and we need to respect each other and we need to see God in everyone.
No matter how hard that is to do or how hypocritical of me it is to say that it is the truth.
Right.
And that doesn't mean that you have to go out of your way to let people walk all over you.
That doesn't mean that you have to give things up to other people.
That just means that you have to help people when you can help them and be there for people when you can be there for them.
And like that, that's what I'm discovered at least about what it means to be pro-human.
And like, it's just the message of Christianity, right?
That's what it means to be pro-human.
Yeah, money right out the window.
Every power bill, water, gas, vices.
I'm a teacher.
Oh, congratulations.
Very much congratulations.
Trotskyites embedded in SENTCOM will glass the world first opportunity.
Yeah.
And you know, like I really, something I don't like about my dad's show is I hear all the time, like CENTCOM, SANTCOM, SENTCOM.
And I'm sure, like, oh, I'm sure it'll get clipped, whatever.
You know, a million times more than me.
You're a genius.
You're smart.
I know nothing.
I'm literally, I'm not in my mother's basement, but I'm in my own basement, basically, just sitting here talking to a camera.
But I don't trust any of these people.
It's like, of course, you want a military operation to happen, right?
Like, y'all love blood.
That's why that's why you have the job, right?
Me, I'm a pacifist.
Like, besides like killing a deer or something, like, I just, it's very sad, right?
I think about it.
Like, I'm a sentimental person.
I view it as snuffing out a future, right?
But these people, they view it as like securing the country, getting money for the country, making sure that we don't go insolvent.
And it's like, well, it's going to happen already, even if you seize all the resources and do whatever to them.
It's just like when Trump went to the Middle East and got those Dubai plans, right?
And it's, or not Dubai plans, excuse me.
When they gave him the plane, we're like, no, they came back.
They promised to invest like it was some crazy number, like 10 trillion or something.
But over like 10 years or something, nuts like that.
There's like horrible cedar, horrible something in the air.
cannot read out of my nose, which hurts my ability to talk.
And I will say, people say they like the beard.
The beard is annoying.
And once I get shredded, the beard is going away for a little bit.
It'll come back.
But it's just like, I don't know.
I don't know how people have like the like Duck Dynasty beard.
Like it's crazy to me.
Like the amount of stuff you'd have to do to just like, it alters your life.
You know, that's interesting.
It's nice to have hair again.
For sure.
Student loan payments on just the interest.
What is going on with the prices?
Which prices?
I did like this, though.
This is a positive thing.
This came out.
This is RFK.
But Owen retweeted it.
Shout out to Owen Shroyer.
So eat real food.
I mean, like, this is like, this is basically like, this is my diet.
Like, this is, this is literally what I'll be eating, basically.
is everything up here.
Like something that I like because it's low effort and it's very efficient.
You get a quality marinara sauce.
You get a lot of it.
And then you get the ground beef slash the ground venison, which I also have.
I got pounds and pounds and pounds of it.
I then mix the two together in kind of a one-to-one and I then cook a pound of it and I eat most of it.
I give some of it to my dog, put the marinara sauce on it, put chopped veggies in it, and then drink some milk and have some blueberries and stuff.
That's like two out of three of my meals.
I also got like some factor meals and stuff, but like just keeping it simple, keeping it high protein and avoiding like bread and crazy amounts of sugar, which I really don't need.
And it should be easy.
I got like a 30-pound weight loss goal.
Like I'm like, I'm like 225 right now or something.
I would like to see if I could be 190.
I think I definitely can be 190.
And once I get down there, I don't want to stay down there for too long.
I'll take some photos and be like, ooh, I did whatever.
I started taking a supplement and then I got in shape, which is why I'm doing it, to be honest.
I'm going to start taking exciting new product and getting really good shape, right?
And it'll be a part of that process.
But a lot of the process is diet and consistency, right?
So I'll be doing that.
And if I'm not absolutely shredded by April, y'all have license to, I don't know, hunt me down.
So I'll show you that it's possible.
And I really do like this food pyramid here.
I really do like it.
And this is basically my diet.
Yeah, I know.
I'll have some eggs.
I'll have some bacon.
I'll have some chicken.
I'll have some fish and stuff like that.
But I just, here's the thing.
I like soup a lot.
I don't know how to make a good soup.
That's one of my goals for this year is to learn how to make a quality soup.
Like a nice potato leek.
That would be so good if I could make that for myself.
Like a Central Market.
It's a place in Austin.
It's kind of like a bougie grocery store.
They got the best soups ever in there, man.
Indeed.
But going over to the next slide, this is a short stream and I'll probably end it soon.
Next like 10, 20 minutes, guys.
Following up on this, I mean, like we've talked about geopolitical stuff.
We've talked about global war.
This is still ongoing.
This continues to be a problem.
House hearing alleges $9 billion fraud in Minnesota federal aid.
A House Oversight Committee hearing revealed claims of up to $9 billion loss to fraud in Minnesota's federal programs for child nutrition, autism services, housing and Medicaid with nearly 100 federal charges already filed.
Republican witnesses accused Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison of overlooking red flags since 2018 and retaliating against over 1,000 whistleblowers, including threats and surveillance.
Oh, I'm off my game, guys.
I'm doing impressions and I'm not trying to do impressions.
They put this together really quickly on a paneled wall.
You see, that's not a staircase.
Like that, that's the back of a wall.
You see that right there?
And you could say, yeah, they have a partition up, and that's how they own and operate the business.
I'd like to see this double check before I make any final accusations, but on a preliminary basis, like, hey, we're going to set up a science center and we're going to videotape in it.
And we're going to win hearts and minds.
And like, this is what I see.
This is my point I was trying to make.
The Due Dissidence guys, Keaton and Russell, and I love them.
And I'm going on their show.
Ooh, this is an interesting tidbit.
I'm going on their show almost a week from today.
I think it's a week from yesterday that I'll be going on their show.
Or is it today?
I don't know.
I'm so unprofessional and bad.
I think it's the 13th.
I'll be on their show.
And I love them.
They're the show that they even surpass my dad and Fuentes, meaning like how much I watch them.
Like for the past two years, solid.
And before that, too, I was a listener, just not as extreme.
I've watched like two out of three of their shows during the week, and then like I'll replay them.
I played them to girls on dates.
I forced them to listen to it.
I forced my dad to listen to them.
I listen to them when I like take a shower or something, might have that on my phone, you know, wake up, go to sleep.
Like, I watch a lot of do dissident stuff, but they have a very, they have a very strong, you know, and I respect it.
And it comes from being a leftist.
And like, I wouldn't define myself as a leftist, even though I'm starting to warm up to some of these policies, like taking care of our own people for one.
It's like, oh, like, you know what?
Like, we do still have to kind of like protect the minority groups.
And they, they still kind of like maybe, maybe you're just being racist and accusing them because they're Somali.
And it's like, well, like, some places in the world like are shitty and do have people that come from a shitty background that are like known to commit like crime and violence and stuff.
And they did do the slavery thing for like a very long time.
And the ones that have come over here, I'm sure the vast majority of them have done nothing.
I'm sure they've just been fine citizens or whatever.
But to say the fraud is not massive or to minimize the fraud would just not be true.
So we're covering the story, right?
And ultimately, like, why do you put it's against the UN charter to put that many people in a localized group?
You're supposed to spread people out so they can assimilate into the native population.
And that clearly didn't happen.
And like me and Tim covered the thing on the deep dive.
Was it yesterday?
Damn, it may have even been yesterday.
Yeah, I think it was with the lady with 180, with 120 or 180,000 in a fucking lunch bag with like flowers around it, trying to bribe a juror and like giving the juror a script to allege racism.
Like if they're going to use it as a weapon, then can we not at least state that it's real would be my argument.
And I love those guys.
I really appreciate those guys.
We differ on a few things.
I agree with them on a lot.
Russell has swayed me on a lot of my positions, things I didn't question before.
But like, I'm an American.
I'm allowed to be critical of this shit.
Like they were invited in here.
These people, like they weren't here in the 80s or even the 90s, like, or some of them were, of course, but like this dude in the science center that's a panel building.
I don't trust that, man.
I don't trust that.
And calling me crazy, call me Fort Hachuko, Waka, Lakamaka, but I think that's fake.
That's my opinion.
So, you know, we differ on that.
And that's fine.
That's the beauty of having a show and being able to go on other people's show.
And you agree and you disagree.
And just like me and Tim, right?
Like me and Tim agree and disagree on a lot of topics.
And some of those topics are charged.
And we're going to figure out a way going forward.
We can have debate streams, discussion streams, because it's always great when we do that with guests and whatnot.
We want to do that with guests going forward into the future, but it's fun to do that with ourselves too.
So, and I think you guys would enjoy it as well.
The thing is, it's just like we got to figure out a way to do it that doesn't involve us fighting over this thing.
That's my pet peeve because it's in front of me.
And then like sometimes he has to use it.
And he's better at using StreamYard than me and programming some of the buttons.
So like he does have to use the keyboard and he can pull up stuff whenever he wants, just like I can.
But the issue is this is not how a setup is supposed to work.
It's supposed to be neither of us.
It's supposed to be a dude in the back or like on stream fixing the problem.
And we think we've got that situation nailed down now.
So there'll be no more fighting over the keyboard in the coming months.
Oh man, I sound terrible today.
It's my voice.
It's funny because I'm on the left, but I've been listening to Alex Ninforce for years since college and I love him.
Yeah, I mean, like, you, you got to appreciate people where they are.
And maybe I'll make this point.
That's an excellent point.
Thank you, Moshmiri.
It's funny how parched this will make you.
Let me tell you, just talking, it really gives you exhale moisture.
But it's interesting.
Yeah.
So like growing up, and maybe, you know, maybe we'll just have fun.
Maybe I'll just talk about myself.
Maybe that'll be interesting for some of y'all know my political background.
So growing up, I did not identify with either party.
I thought the government was evil.
I still think the government is evil.
I knew about CIA.
I knew about HARP.
I knew about the weather weapons.
I knew about U.S. imperialism.
I knew about how he would take over other countries to try to steal their resources or grow drugs there.
I knew that we had to dominate the planet or that that was our logic so that things didn't slip through our grasp post-World War II.
I knew that we defeated the Soviet Union, quote unquote, and that we were the superpower.
But I was at a very early age, I would say like five, six years old already starting to gain consciousness of what all this was because like this was my life.
This is all I've ever heard about, right?
That may sound like an early age to you, but my just opinion is like my earliest opinion was just the government is bad.
And grow up, Obama, first term, Obama, second term, and then we get Trump, right?
And then it becomes not just a thing of government bad and all politicians bad.
It's like we got the Lone Ranger.
It's like we got the guy that showed up who could do the job, who was Superman, who was everything we wanted more because he promised to end everything that we hated.
And like, it's an aura thing, too.
And like people will, they'll make fun of the Zoomer slang.
Like these are just terms that are, they're used in other ways or have been repurposed to mean other things, right?
Like the aura of Trump is a very real thing or was a very real thing, especially in 2016 to a degree that in the future, when people are alive, or I guess people are already alive.
That's very stupid.
When people are alive, well, they won't.
No people are alive where Trump has, Trump's still with us, is my point.
So like it'd be very interesting for people that had no experience living under Trump or around Trump's orbit or like dealing with that aura and what it meant to society.
It'll be very weird to explain to them how he captivated an entire nation for 12 years just to talk about him.
And that's what I saw, right?
And at first it was fun because we wanted to believe in him.
And then it's like, it's like you buy the biggest firecracker ever, like not even from the fireworks stand from like the like illegal hillbilly shack, right?
And you set it up and you light it and it's a dud.
And then we get the lead up to 2020 and they have the whole lineup.
They screw Bernie again, nominate Biden.
Trump runs against Biden.
I was watching those presidential debates and I was seeing the mood in there.
I was like, yeah, this isn't whatever people want to say.
Like, and I do believe the election was tampered with by the Democrats.
I think that I think that that is just a fact.
And we can look at the evidence.
We can look at Tina Peters and other people like that.
We can just look at the footage of the truck showing up and all of it.
And there's documentaries on it on the mules and whatnot.
So I'm not alleging that there wasn't fraud, but there was a reason why people were not super excited to vote for Donald Trump.
And that's because in 2020, COVID happened and the economy tanked.
Everything was like end of the world.
And he kind of quietly leaves office, right?
And we get four years of Biden.
And it's under those four years of Biden where I really started to develop my political mind because I started realizing like, what is it about the government that I hate now that it's really being actively authoritarian?
Like the vaccine mandate and him saying that 80 million federal employees have to get this shot, this experimental shot where there's no testing data on any of it, none of it.
And they have like a 96 year release clause until any of it can be released.
No, that's normal, right?
There's nothing to question there.
Yeah, 80 million people get removed.
They remove their right to affirmative consent or informed consent and made them take the shot.
Oh, no, Supreme Court shut that down.
But my point being, if that had happened, that's what would have happened.
Tens of millions, possibly hundreds of millions of people pressured into getting something because they were told that it would stop transmission.
They were told that was the number one thing.
They were told, like, you won't kill grandma if you take the shot.
And if you don't take the shot, then you're trying to kill grandma.
And that makes you the untermension that makes you the bad person.
That makes you the Lilliputian that we get to step on as a society.
And that's how you create the caste system, right?
And I witnessed that in real time.
So I know that it can be real.
And that's what really made me anti-authoritarian and really look at the government because the government should not have the power to do any of this stuff that it currently does.
And our founders certainly didn't envision it.
Like our founders probably envisioned the state governments with no federal government.
Not talking about that literal system, but the amount of power the state government has versus the federal.
Like it's beyond anything.
The United States government has mutated into such a behemoth monster.
And Joe Biden during COVID with the authoritarian restrictions and the poison shot and the war in Ukraine and the war crimes going on there and the war crimes going on in Gaza.
I mean, man, the genocide going on in Gaza, that was enough to radicalize me away from just being blindly pro-Trump to being, you know, like what I would define myself as a kid, just someone that just doesn't trust the government, right?
And then we get Trump again in 24 and I wasn't even all in.
I wasn't even that sure about it.
I nominally supported him.
But the day that he got shot, I was coming out of church and I got the news.
I went to InfoWars.
I did like a four-hour broadcast, Chase Geyser, my dad.
And like I pulled the cross out of my shirt, as unworthy and horrible as I am, and Lord have mercy on my soul for that.
Seriously, I told people to vote for him.
I told people to vote for Trump because I thought that they were shooting at him to end the wars or because he wanted to end the wars, right?
I really did believe this.
And how foolish I was.
Even if they killed him, whoever goes in, they're all going to do the same thing anyway.
Anyone that has the presidential seat is going to do this stuff anyway.
It's just their own, like, it's the same text.
It's just different font.
And Trump is just impact font.
So I just, he promised to be the priest, the peace president.
He said he wanted the Nobel Prize.
He said he wanted to stop the wars.
If he had been there, Russia-Ukraine wouldn't have happened.
I believe that.
I do believe that that may be nominally true, but I think he's more influenced by powerful donors and powerful friends and people he could play golf with, like Lindsey Graham.
And like, he doesn't, he doesn't care about me.
He doesn't care about you.
He doesn't know we exist.
And like they talk about flyover country.
They talk about the basket of deplorables.
Like that's how the people at Mar-a-Lago view us, unfortunately.
And it is what it is.
I'm sure they sit around the table and go, oh, people are suffering.
It's so terrible.
We could be doing better, but our brave warrior, he's going to fight.
Our Mr. Patel, he's going to do a better job.
Oh, yes, yes, you're going to do a better job.
And Hegseth is really nailing it as a leader.
I'm sure they sit around and do that as the mother sticks the heroin needle into her arm, as the child gets arrested for stealing from a store to feed his family, as the country collapses, as another car goes off a bridge.
I'm sure they have those conversations with themselves.
And in fact, after the operation in Venezuela, they posted themselves watching football, right?
And America time means that we're so rich and well off that we get to totally ignore anyone else's problems.
And that's what I realized with Trump over this past year.
He's here because why would he have to care?
He got the vote.
He's a second term of president.
Like he's the new Reagan figure.
That's how that's how they positioned him to be.
And he took that deal.
It's very plain and obvious to see.
So I'm just sitting here and I'm watching the pit, as I like to call it, the rough ecosystem of all this.
And I'm looking at the online space.
I'm looking at the political space.
I'm looking at the media space.
I'm looking at all of it.
And my question is, what happens next?
Because if there's no major conflict, then the demand for conflict domestically in the United States will be so high.
We'll have some new sort of slop war that actually gets us into a real war.
And I think that that's what we'll see going forward into the next decade, going into the 2030s.
You're going to see crazy, weird things that go viral.
Like apparently, Trump invaded Venezuela because of Maduro dancing and whatnot.
Like we're going to see a lot of weirdness going forward into the future.
And I'm getting ready for it.
And the way I've made peace with it in my past actions regarding how I voted and who I've supported as political candidates is we're all propagandized.
We're all psyoped.
It's not our fault.
We're not bad people for that happening to us.
It's just like things are weaponized against us, right?
On all angles on every front.
So instead of beating ourselves up about it, let's have ultimate accountability and move forward knowing that we need to be rational political actors within our own system and try like hell to fix it if possible.
And that means supporting independent candidates.
That means supporting people like Massey, in my opinion, only tacitly.
I don't trust any of them, but it means eventually the boomers are going to die and we're going to have a fucking say in this country.
We're not going to be able to rebuild.
But they own everything.
They control everything.
They're mentally gone, but they're in charge.
And once they're gone, and once I know there's Gen X that are bad too, and God, about the millennials as well, but I trust the Gen X a lot more than the boomer.
And I think Trump is a great example of a boomer president, even though he's probably not a boomer or whatever.
I'm sure someone will correct me.
It's just enough is enough already with the old people that are okay with killing everyone as long as they get five years at a beach house.
Enough of enough or enough is enough.
But I do have a clip and I need to get through all my clips before I end the show.
I want to be professional.
This is a very short show tonight.
I appreciate y'all being with me.
Tim will be will be back tomorrow.
He needs a day to recharge.
He's been traveling a lot and working a lot on his business outside of this.
I was like, first off, like, we're just seeing video clips for the first time.
We don't know anything about the situation.
Number two, they go out there and they have to go out there and be tough and get people.
They have shown wanton disrespect for human life.
And like that, whatever you think about this being justified or whatnot, she is kind of rolling forward towards him and she may be accelerating a little bit.
So watch this.
I'll break it down.
And she is a retard for doing it 100%.
I'm not saying she's not retarded.
Look how lame of an America we have.
Okay, so you see the head behind this head?
So there's another guy in front of the car.
Okay.
So people have seen the video and are like, this guy, he wasn't even near the car, right?
He's over to the side.
This is the guy back here that supposedly gets hit.
So we'll play it.
And then literally, you can see him with his gun out.
And hey, I guess it's the clavicular defense, right?
Because it's actually, I mean, clavicular, the guy apparently he had a weapon on him, but he's just filling with his phone.
If he doesn't move, he does incur serious bodily injury, right?
So, like, but if you can reasonably get out of the way, I mean, what, what, what's what state was this in?
What state was this in?
It's very interesting.
What state?
All right.
It looks to be a place that's cold.
Whatever.
Um, yeah, I mean, I just don't like ICE.
ICE was set up in 2003 in coordination with the Patriot Act and other such programs, other things, such as FEMA.
So, I'm, I'm not the, I'm not the biggest fan of ICE in general, but I mean, if someone is on the hood of my car, or if I'm in front of someone's car and they start driving forward and I'm going to die, I'm going to shoot at them.
So, interesting case, interesting case for sure.
And then we got the close-up.
Oh, this is in Minneapolis.
This is a new George Floyd.
What the fuck?
That's crazy.
It's also, it's also tiresome.
I just, and the thing is, here, before I, before we do the close-up, it's so horrible that I could be so casual about like someone dying like that, right?
Just watch a video and be like, eh, it is what it is.
And that's the way for everyone in my generation and for probably most millennials too.
It's just, you've seen so much violence, like it just kind of doesn't mean anything anymore.
And that's a very sad thing because that means we've lost part of our humanity to this technology.
And I think figuring out how to get that back is a big deal because like this shouldn't be, it should be free and fair to post all these things, free speech, freedom of expression.
I don't disagree with any of that.
I just, it's just, man, it takes a toll on your soul and you don't realize it until after thinking about it.
And if anything did happen to him, he'd be pardoned by Trump.
So it doesn't matter anyway.
Thank you all for being here tonight.
Special episode of the Gray Area.
This is the first Wednesday we're doing.
We're doing Wednesdays every Wednesday going forward into the future.
I had to work a lot.
I am not feeling the best.
It's just allergies and whatnot.
And taking care of Rupert, got the dog back.
He was boarded for a little while.
We will be back Thursday, and we have the guest tomorrow.
I guess you should say, I guess I should say.
See, I'm tongue-tied and stuff.
That's because I'm tired, and I'm sorry about that, guys.
On Thursday, we're going to have a cool guest on Aaron Baker, I believe is his name.
He's running against Randy Fine, the biggest, meaning fat balloon Zionist in Congress, Randy Fine.
And then on Sunday, I'm going to mess up the brother's name, the Muslim gentleman, very tapped in with Middle East knowledge and knowledge about the UK.
We're going to talk to him and get his take and his opinion on Iran, Israel, Gaza, and other issues that affect the world.
Because, like we've been saying to you guys since day one, the goal of the show is to find the highest quality guests and the highest quality information.
And we're getting better with the information.
It's getting closer to highest quality.
But if we can bring on some really sizable guests starting like now, this show is going to go next level.
And I really appreciate all y'all being here with me tonight.
And not to be here with me.
I love being here with you.
I would honestly like maybe, maybe sometimes I'll just come down here and turn on the studio.
Just hang out with you guys.
Just hang out for like 30 minutes and see who shows up because it is fun to do guys.
