| In the first Trump administration, as we are seeing, in the second, you rise to the level of your sycophant, and no one is a bigger or more dangerous sycophant you rise to the level of your sycophant, and no one is a There will be accountability within the FBI and outside of the FBI, and we will do it through rigorous constitutional oversight starting this weekend. | ||

This political hack does not deserve to be in this building. | |
| He can't do the job. | ||
| He won't protect the public. | ||
| He will misuse the resources of the bureau. | ||
| He will weaponize it against the president's political opponents rather than protecting the safety, the public safety of the American people. | ||
| Adam Schiff is the worst criminal. | ||
| In Congress in the last 250 years. | ||
| I don't think the incoming president should be threatening his political opponents with jail time. | ||
| That's not the kind of talk we should hear from a president in a democracy. | ||
| Nor do I think that a pardon is necessary for the members of the January 6th committee. | ||

|
With just hours to go in his term, President Biden issuing pardons or pre-pardons. | |
| I guess you could say, for General Mark Milley, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and all Congress members and staff who served on the January 6th Select Committee. | ||
| That includes witnesses who also testified against President Trump. | ||
| Trump's AG, Bondi, confirms Epstein and Diddy docs to be released. | ||
| Exposing globalist pedo blackmail operations. | ||
| The DOJ may be releasing the list of Jeffrey Epstein's clients? | ||
| Will that really happen? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's sitting on my desk right now. | |
| You think Obama had anything to do with any of these parties that he had? | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| You got presidents. | ||
| You got preachers. | ||
| I personally didn't think he was going to commit suicide. | ||
| But the thing is... | ||
| Former record executive Suge Knight doing an interview from prison has gone public and said Obama was part of the PDT events and parties along with other politicians and other leftist leaders. | ||
| And we also know that almost all the names, people that have seen it on the Jeffrey Epstein client list are Democrats and other top globalists like Bill Gates, Prince Andrew and others. | ||
| And the attorney general just yesterday, they are set to release that. | ||
| There's been a talk. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And you know as well as I know, by you being on the same tier as him, he probably is going to kill it all. | |
| He has himself. | ||
|
unidentified
|
First of all, they're watching all the time, there's cameras, and it just so happens that one particular time there's no cameras and no one monitoring that. | |
| I had eyes on me 24-7 when I was there. | ||
| So, I mean, I knew it was impossible. | ||
| Always. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| You have one time to yourself. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nothing at all. | |
| You always want to yourself. | ||
| Always. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Always. | |
| Well, there you have it. | ||
| Kash Patel just confirmed as director of the FBI. Pretty unbelievable. | ||
| I mean, the most serious agency in our government. | ||
| I am once again asking for your financial support. | ||
| I have to tell anybody that we're living in dangerous and unprecedented times. | ||
| We're taking on Trump's movement toward authoritarianism, putting more and more power into his own hands, undermining the Congress, challenging the courts, not knowing what the Constitution is about. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No to this nomination. | |
| No to Pam Bondi. | ||
| RFK is not the best or the brightest. | ||
| He will not bring back Camelot or make America healthy again. | ||
| Chelsea Gabbard is a walking five alarm fire and must be rejected. | ||
| Must be. | ||
| Cohen is a bigger or more dangerous sycophant than Cash Patel. | ||
| I think we got to educate people that the Federal Reserve is not a public government entity. | ||
| It's a private... | ||
| The robber barons that started this country who manipulate the currency to their advantage, and that needs to be tackled. | ||
| Again, I'm not the economic guru. | ||
| I just know it's a problem, and I'll be honest with you. | ||
| I don't know what the solution is, but it needs to be addressed. | ||

It's Monday, February 24th in the year of our Lord 2025. February 24th in the year of our Lord 2025. | |
| And you're listening to the American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith. | ||
| Watch it live right now at band.video. | ||
| Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Welcome to The American Journal. | ||
| I'm your host, Harrison Smith. | ||
| Coming to you live this Monday morning, the 24th of February, 2025. Hope everybody had a good weekend. | ||
| I know I did. | ||
| We got a lot of news to talk about. | ||
| A lot of news happened over the weekend. | ||
| It's pretty astonishing appointments, some equally astonishing firings, and of course geopolitical news as well. | ||
| We'll get to all of it. | ||
| And I think we should start maybe with a little recap. | ||
| Of Trump's first month in office. | ||
| And luckily for us, our good friend Destiny went ahead and gave us a list. | ||
| And we'll go through this. | ||
| Now he's not happy about what's going on. | ||
| I am. | ||
| I'm just going to be trying to take notes here. | ||
| But he goes through the list pretty quickly. | ||
| We're going to have to pause it and comment on it. | ||
| It's been just a little over a month since Trump got inaugurated. | ||
| And he's achieved a lot already. | ||
| Let's go to Destiny and find out exactly how much we did. | ||
| Do we have that video? | ||
| Alright, let's go to Destiny. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So we have one month down, 47 to go. | |
| Somebody actually sent me an email. | ||
| Anyway, here's the first month of Trump. | ||
| So we pardoned all 1,500 January 6th people. | ||
| Woo! | ||
| 1,600! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah! | |
| Trump did his crypto rug pull. | ||
| He did an executive order to end birthright citizenship. | ||
| He ended all remote work. | ||
| Completely arbitrarily for federal employees. | ||
| Yeah, go back to the office. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I thought you were going to say in general. | |
| Lazy scum. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He tried to tariff Columbia, but he backed off. | |
| He backed off. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's made jokes about having a third term. | |
| Paused federal financial assistance loans. | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| I mean, this list of terrible things Trump has done, obviously making a joke has to be at the top of that. | ||
| I mean, can you believe it? | ||
| It's been one month and he's already making jokes? | ||
| This is unacceptable. | ||
| So far, everything he said has been misrepresented, but that's okay. | ||
| That's okay. | ||
| He tried to tariff Colombia and then backed down. | ||
| You mean when Colombia said they're not going to accept military flights and he said, I'm going to put tariffs on you, and one hour later, Colombia was like, actually, we're going to send planes. | ||
| Actually, we want to help and be partners in this. | ||
| Everything Trump has done so far has been a massive success, and this is pissing them off, and they have to portray it as if it's the literal opposite. | ||
| Colombia folded like... | ||
| A folding chair, like a house of cards. | ||
| But they can't say that because that would prove that Trump is successfully wielding tariff power as president to benefit the American people. | ||
| So, sorry, the last thing he said was Trump joked. | ||
| So, you know, he shows you how bad things are really getting. | ||
| Trump made a joke. | ||
| All right, let's go back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Paused. | |
| Federal financial assistance loans. | ||
| Good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Metta agreed to pay him $25 million for violating his First Amendment right. | |
| All right, let's pause that there. | ||
| Okay, so one of the bad things Trump did during his first month was Metta paid him $25 million for violating his First Amendment. | ||
| And we talk about how desperate the Democrats are these days, how they just have absolutely nothing. | ||
| This is one of those absolutely nothings. | ||
| To criticize Trump, they're claiming that Metta lost a lawsuit against him. | ||
| Okay, back to the video. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Banning him on Facebook. | |
| Revoked visas for Palestine supporters. | ||
| Oh, he opened and expanded Guantanamo Bay to send migrants to. | ||
| Blamed DEI on a helicopter crash before he knew anything about it. | ||
| Let's pause that here, too. | ||
| Blamed DEI for the helicopter crash before he knew anything about it. | ||
| You know, since that helicopter crash, there have been, like, several more major airline crashes. | ||
| Now, ironically, all of them... | ||
| We're also caused by DEI. That's kind of interesting. | ||
| Or at least they had some aspect in that. | ||
| But you'll notice that Trump did not come out and blame DEI for those crashes because they were different than the helicopter crash. | ||
| And by the way, I don't know if Destiny realizes the person he's talking about is the President of the United States. | ||
| If anybody in the country knew more about the helicopter crash than anybody else, it was... | ||
| The President of the United States. | ||
| I've been meaning to make this point. | ||
| I wanted to pause because I've been meaning to make this point, especially about this helicopter crash. | ||
| Donald Trump is President of the United States. | ||
| If a helicopter crashes in Washington, D.C., he gets to ask, whoever is in charge of that, what happened? | ||
| What went wrong? | ||
| Who was the pilot? | ||
| How did it go down? | ||
| It took us several days. | ||
| It was like a week until we finally got the name of the person, by the way, because it was a DEI sort of situation. | ||
| So they wanted to hide that because they would rather have planes fall out of the sky and dozens of people incinerated and drowned and murdered rather than admit that they're... | ||
| Asinine policies are dangerous. | ||
| So that's where their priorities lie. | ||
| But yeah, Donald Trump knew it was a DEI thing. | ||
| That's why he said it. | ||
| Because he's the president and he had access to that information. | ||
| And while the media would rather conceal that and cover that up to continue the deadly policies, Donald Trump went ahead and announced that that was true. | ||
| He hasn't made that announcement for other plane crashes because it wasn't the direct cause of those plane crashes. | ||
| So he didn't say that it was. | ||
| People seem to not recognize this. | ||
| They don't like... | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It's weird. | ||
| He calls out DEI for this plane crash, and they're like, that's just because he hates black people. | ||
| But then another plane crash is he doesn't call out DEI, and they don't go, oh, well, maybe he was just calling that one DEI because it actually was. | ||
| We're dealing with very stupid people, I guess is my point. | ||
| Let's go back to the stupid people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We did the whole 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada that he backed off from for a month. | |
| We have a Doge that was breaking into the Treasury and gaining access to data. | ||
| Breaking into the Treasury! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fired the security guards that tried to stop them. | |
| Fired everybody that sent emails opposing it. | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Shut down USA. Fired everybody that disobeyed him. | |
| That's just basically dead now. | ||
| Because it was billions of dollars in waste. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because of that confirmed today where somebody got sent home and they didn't have money for oxygen basically like an employee and now they've died as of today I think. | |
| Okay. | ||
| Oh, we said we were going to own Gaza. | ||
| We told Israel that they can kick all the Palestinians out. | ||
| We revoked Biden's security clearance. | ||
| Let's pause that there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay, let's pause that. | |
| Oh my god. | ||
| These freaking people. | ||
| These freaking people. | ||
| I don't even know what to say about this anymore. | ||
| I just... | ||
| Are we the only... | ||
| Are we literally the only ones that are consistent with our beliefs? | ||
| Maybe you don't know why I'm so flabbergasted. | ||
| Destiny thinks every Palestinian should be killed. | ||
| He's like very pro-Israel and he's very much like the Palestinians are animals, they shall be slaughtered. | ||
| And it's like, I'm against the Trump saying he wants Gaza thing. | ||
| Because I don't want Gaza and I want the Gazans to have Gaza. | ||
| But it was clearly a negotiation tactic that's been wildly successful. | ||
| I just don't get it. | ||
| I just don't get what moderates other people's behavior. | ||
| I don't understand. | ||
| I don't understand. | ||
| I genuinely don't understand. | ||
| I get that you want to score political points, so you're going to say something that you know people don't like about Trump. | ||
| But if his position is literally less extreme than yours, but you're still criticizing his, it's just how is everybody in the media so wildly dishonest? | ||
| It really is absolutely insane. | ||
| And we'll go to some clips of Dan Bongino that sort of have this same vibe. | ||
| Where it's like, all right, destiny has made his name over the last year by being the least informed but most vociferous supporter of Israel. | ||
| No idea what he's talking about in the slightest regard, but he does know that he wants Palestinians dead. | ||
| That's basically his stance. | ||
| Is Israel good? | ||
| Palestine bad? | ||
| Palestine shouldn't even exist. | ||
| The Palestinians shouldn't exist. | ||
| We should kill them all. | ||
| And Trump's like, I think America should take Gaza. | ||
| And he's like, what? | ||
| That's crazy! | ||
| So, I don't know. | ||
| It's just like, nobody believes anything. | ||
| I'm just convinced that nobody actually believes anything. | ||
| Nobody knows anything. | ||
| It's just infuriating. | ||
| And I genuinely wonder, like, are we just stupid? | ||
| Is Infowars just stupid? | ||
| Should we just be doing what they're doing? | ||
| Would we be better off if we just... | ||
| We've violated our principles at every possible opportunity. | ||
| That's what everybody else does, and they all seem to be doing a lot better than us. | ||
| So I don't know. | ||
| I don't know what to do, but it's like, are we literally the only place in the world where, like, an enemy of Donald Trump, a great champion of ours, does something that we don't like? | ||
| Are we the only people in the world to come out and go, hey, that was bad? | ||
| That was bad. | ||
| I know he's our hero. | ||
| I know he's doing a lot of great stuff, but that's a very bad and wrong position to have. | ||
| Or the flip side, Ilhan Omar or some other scheming subversive makes a good point and we go, hey, she's right about this. | ||
| No, she's correct about this. | ||
| I just genuinely don't understand. | ||
| I really don't. | ||
| But okay, it's like, I don't know if other people get what I'm saying, but this idea that Destiny, the... | ||
| Israeli lapdog is like bringing up Trump being pro-Israel as if it's a negative. | ||
| It's like just nothing these people believe means anything ever. | ||
| It's really strange. | ||
| It's very bizarre. | ||
| Well, let's go back. | ||
| Let's see what else he's done. | ||
| So far, I've heard nothing even remotely bad, nothing even arguably illegal. | ||
| So far, the only thing he's actually mentioned Trump doing is like Cutting the size of... | ||
| Cutting USAID. Being like, we don't know why. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It was the trillions of dollars being stolen from us and sent to Sri Lanka or anywhere else, anywhere around the world. | ||
| He's like, somebody's already died from that. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And how many people have died because of the open border? | ||
| You absolute... | ||
| It's just these people, man. | ||
| Let's go back to the video. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| 25% tariffs on all steel are live now. | ||
| Elon Musk is doing interviews with him in the Oval Office. | ||
| Oh my God. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We've got the... | |
| Talk's going on right now for Ukraine in Saudi Arabia with Trump and Putin. | ||
| Zelensky is not invited. | ||
| Oh, he's bringing in peace. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ukraine has been disallowed. | |
| The Associated Press is no longer into the White House press room because they won't call it the Gulf of America. | ||
| Oh, dear. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Trump had his insane tweet of, he who saves his country does not violate any laws. | |
| Oh, my God. | ||
| He quoted Napoleon, you guys. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, we dismissed all the charges against Mayor Eric Adams. | |
| Moscow's now starting on the IRS. Trump has blamed Ukraine for starting the war. | ||
| They did. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Europe is scrambling to figure out how to lead the world now without... | |
| America being involved. | ||
| Trump did an insane executive order two days ago saying that he is the law and whatever the DOJ attorney general says is the law. | ||
| That's a quote, by the way. | ||
| That's a quote. | ||
| Let's pause right there. | ||
| I don't know if you know that. | ||
| Donald Trump signed an executive order and he had just handwritten, I am the law, and then he signed that. | ||
| It's crazy, but that's where we are. | ||
| I mean, clearly he's a dictator because he wrote a note that said, I am the law and whatever the DOJ does is legal. | ||
| And he signed that, and now that's the law of the land, and that's just the way it works. | ||
| He's Hitler, and hail Trump. | ||
| That's the world these leftists live in. | ||
| It is insane, completely untethered to reality, and even an accidental basis. | ||
| And these are the people we have to share a country with. | ||
| Are we done? | ||
| Let's go back to Stephen Destiny Bonnell, who is going through a list of either normal things that... | ||
| Are good or insane delusions that he's making up, and it's hard to tell which is which sometimes. | ||
| Let's go back to the list of Trump's accomplishments. | ||
| Remember, so far I think the worst things are he told a joke and he did an interview. | ||
| I mean, these are unacceptable, but let's go back to the list. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And whatever the DOJ attorney general says is the law, which kind of goes against what the Supreme Court is supposed to do. | |
| There you go. | ||
| Good times. | ||
| That's one month. | ||
| Any one of these, I think. | ||
| It would be almost like an executive-defining thing, some of these would be, like for four years, but, you know, good times. | ||
| Yeah, it is good times. | ||
| No, it's freaking awesome. | ||
| Destiny, if Israel were to literally nuke Gaza Strip and kill two million people, I don't know if that would qualify as genocide. | ||
| Oh, but he's outraged that Trump said America should control Gaza. | ||
| Maybe that's why. | ||
| Maybe he's outraged because he would rather see them incinerated. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I'm not sure why. | ||
| All I know is just nobody can be honest about anything. | ||
| It's really shocking. | ||
| So yeah, like he said, any one of those things would be an executive defining trait. | ||
| I mean, I don't think a president has ever done an interview before. | ||
| Has the president ever made a joke? | ||
| I mean, these things are shocking. | ||
| So that's just a little brief list of what Trump's been up to in the first month. | ||
| Really, it's kind of not enough. | ||
| It's kind of not enough. | ||
| And we need to be doing more. | ||
| And I actually tweeted this out. | ||
| I'll read the actual tweet that I put out. | ||
| I think it was kind of in response to that Destiny video. | ||
| Because you have to understand. | ||
| That is how these people think. | ||
| They see what's going on in America. | ||
| None of which has been bad at all. | ||
| Nothing so far has been bad except for the... | ||
| It's only bad to the people who like... | ||
| Have jobs where they don't go into the office and never actually do anything and yet still have a $100,000 salary and they can make money on the side and they get grants. | ||
| And they, you know, so it's just like none of this has been bad at all. | ||
| One of the things that he's complaining about is peace, is the fact that Trump is negotiating with Putin to stop the war in Ukraine. | ||
| They're very angry at that. | ||
| Regardless of the reality, regardless of just the... | ||
| Basic construct of what is. | ||
| Just what is real. | ||
| Regardless of any of that, these people are convinced that Trump is Hitler. | ||
| They're convinced that Musk is Hitler. | ||
| They are insane. | ||
| We are driving them insane by doing things that are normal. | ||
| I almost kept having this realization over the weekend. | ||
| I tweeted out a few things about this. | ||
| One of these would be the fact that JustLoki on X wrote, I wasn't exactly ready for the subreddit Fed News thread that went, if I was TSCI and I got fired, I'd walk right into the Chinese or Russian embassy and start spilling state secrets because F Trump, with most of the comments being supportive or understanding. | ||
| Insane people. | ||
| In case that was confusing. | ||
| Basically on Reddit, you've got the subreddit of federal workers where they post there. | ||
| It's just a forum where they post. | ||
| And somebody posted, you know, if I had classified secret clearance and I got fired, I would take what I knew and go sell it to our enemies. | ||
| Because F Trump, F America. | ||
| And so, like, I'm not surprised. | ||
| And all the comments underneath were like, yeah, that's totally what should happen. | ||
| Yeah, we should sell military secrets to China because I got fired. | ||
| And it's like... | ||
| The fact that these things are even posted is very troubling. | ||
| The fact that comments are supportive of it. | ||
| Very concerning. | ||
| All that means to me is we have literal traitors already inside our government, probably with secret clearance. | ||
| I also, I do wonder if like... | ||
| I hope that's being taken into account. | ||
| I hope that of all the people that are being fired, they're retaining enough people to investigate and go after leaks that happen after the people get fired. | ||
| I wonder if they're doing that. | ||
| My response to this was, it's easy to see why the French Revolution got so bloody. | ||
| If you don't treat the left harshly, then they walk all over you and treat their victims like scum. | ||
| But if you do treat the left harshly, then they become insane genocidal traitors. | ||
| And that really is the situation we're in right now. | ||
| Where it's like, if you don't have a rough hand with the left, if you give them even the slightest benefit of the doubt, just like, I don't think it's a great idea, but they seem to have their hearts in the right place, we'll let them do their little charity thing. | ||
| Then they're going to eat you. | ||
| They're going to... | ||
| Cook you and eat you like a witch from a fairy tale. | ||
| They're very evil people that if you trust them for a moment, they'll slit your throat. | ||
| And we just know that the singular thing that has led most to the collapse of America over the last 50 years is just not being harsh enough with the left. | ||
| It's one of the vulnerabilities of our open society that it's taken advantage of. | ||
| The fact that we do have a system that can change. | ||
| That can morph and reform and evolve with changing of the human condition. | ||
| And that's taken advantage of by people. | ||
| And usually it's when the change starts to happen that the exploiters weasel their way in. | ||
| In other words, in the 50s when it's no longer totally necessary for women to be in the house all day because you have industrial processes that makes preparing food a lot easier and you have washing machines so you're not... | ||
| Just stuck doing necessary chores all day, every day, and housewives had a bunch of free time, and they wanted to go out and get jobs. | ||
| They wanted to not be tied down. | ||
| So as an open Christian society, we're like, yeah, let's try to work this out. | ||
| Let's figure out how to change things. | ||
| Clearly, we're not in a situation we were before. | ||
| Maybe women can have a little bit more liberty, a little more autonomy. | ||
| We can change those rules. | ||
| Instead of just allowing that process to naturally take place over a period of time, as it would... | ||
| You have bad actors come in and take this newly established sort of mood in the nation and hijack it and give us what we have now, which is third wave feminism, just the total deconstruction of nature itself. | ||
| So it's all these little vulnerabilities. | ||
| And so you give them leeway. | ||
| If you don't step on the left's neck, they will just take advantage of you and they'll destroy you from the inside. | ||
| But then if they have power for a little while, and then you seize it back like we just did, and you start treating them harshly with the harshness necessary to stop their conniving, then they think that they are the Jews in Nazi Germany. | ||
| They suddenly think that they are in a life-or-death struggle and that any means are valid and that just any deception, any murder, death, it doesn't matter anymore. | ||
| So it's like either you don't treat the left harshly, And they worm their way into your systems and destroy you from within. | ||
| Or you do treat them harshly and they go completely insane. | ||
| And literally are just like, I'm going to sell the secrets to Russia so you all get nuked. | ||
| It's like because you lost your email job? | ||
| You lost the job where you send two emails a day and get paid $100,000 a month? | ||
| I mean, this is ridiculous. | ||
| It's absurd. | ||
| And so I was... | ||
| Thinking about this, and I watched this video with Destiny, which, again, the point of it is this is what's being told to the average American. | ||
| It's like, Trump is Nazi, Trump is Hitler, everything he's doing is destroying America. | ||
| So if they ever get back into power, they're going to make 2021 through 2025 look like... | ||
| A walk in the park. | ||
| Here's how I put it on X. I said, I really, really want to push the idea that we are facing a life or death deadline with the Trump administration. | ||
| We have to go all in. | ||
| We have to crush the enemy entirely right now. | ||
| Look at what they did during Biden's administration, and that was after Trump's first administration hardly rocked the boat. | ||
| If they're ever allowed to return to power, the immigration, lawfare, and warmongering of the past will look like a sunny picnic compared to what they will do next. | ||
| They're being driven to murderous insanity, and our nation will not survive. | ||
| If they ever gain power again, we have less than two years. | ||
| Our future existence hangs in the balance. | ||
| And I'm serious. | ||
| I mean, it's been one month. | ||
| It's been a pretty good month. | ||
| There's been a lot of crazy things that have happened this month. | ||
| Absolutely everything has to be ramped up to 11. Absolutely every aspect of Trump's administration has to be more aggressive, more imposing. | ||
| We have to crush them. | ||
| We have two years. | ||
| We have to crush them entirely. | ||
| And they've got a million different little schemes that they can run. | ||
| But whether it's illegal immigration, or fixing the voting system, or eliminating their massive, unimaginably huge networks of fraud that they fund all of their little operations by, it all has to be dismantled. | ||
| It all has to be crushed. | ||
| Every one of their potentialities has to be cut off from them. | ||
| It has to, because if they ever get in power again, they'll probably re-arrest everybody from January 6th. | ||
| And then they'll arrest anybody else. | ||
| They'll arrest anybody who was happy that those people were pardoned. | ||
| I mean, you saw how lawless and insane they were last time. | ||
| If they ever get into power again, it will be just so much worse. | ||
| Just infinitely worse. | ||
| And so, you know, I'd rather not have to crush our fellow Americans, but like, look at them. | ||
| But I mean, look at these people. | ||
| Listen to these people. | ||
| You have to be crushed. | ||
| I mean, I said, what are you going to do? | ||
| With roaches, you crush them. | ||
| This is what is necessary for the sake of our country. | ||
| Hope all of the Republicans in office realize how serious this moment of time is and do what's necessary. | ||
| We'll be right back. | ||
| Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| This is the American Journal. | ||
| I'm your host, Harrison Smith. | ||
| We're going to do the daily dispatch in the first start. | ||
| We'll do that in just a second. | ||
| Just to close out what I was just talking about. | ||
| I had some great responses to my post on X about this. | ||
| Trying to drive home the fact that, like, we have two years. | ||
| We have two years, and if you don't eliminate your enemies in two years, they're going to come back with a vengeance. | ||
| I say two years because even though Trump will be in office, the moment. | ||
| They get a majority in the House or the Senate. | ||
| Everything derails to make way for their impeachment shenanigans. | ||
| I'm like, you know that. | ||
| You know that's true. | ||
| So we can't let that happen. | ||
| We have to win the midterms. | ||
| To win the midterms, we have to fix the electoral system. | ||
| I've seen a little bit of talk about that. | ||
| There was an EO about that, I believe, a little bit earlier. | ||
| So anyway, we got two years. | ||
| We got two years. | ||
| And if you don't fix everything in these two years, It's over for America. | ||
| And a couple people responded to this in ways that I think clarify what I was saying, because I completely agree with them. | ||
| Timothy Williams at Timothy BCE says, Trump is in the position of Yamamoto after Pearl Harbor. | ||
| Yamamoto said, then, I can run wild for six months. | ||
| After that, I have no expectations of success. | ||
| His attempts to invade Alaska and Australia failed and the Battle of Midway happened six months after Pearl Harbor, destroying the IJN and losing the war. | ||
| Trump's window is likewise short. | ||
| If he simply exposes the criminals and does not arrest them, they will regroup and destroy him and his Midway is likely to be a major economic crash. | ||
| Charge and arrest the globalist criminals now, otherwise Americans will discover the modern equivalent of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. | ||
| I think that is an absolutely perfect Pearl Harbor. | ||
| That's sort of where we're at. | ||
| What Trump is doing by hitting the left so hard, it's a gamble. | ||
| Pearl Harbor was a gamble. | ||
| The gamble of Pearl Harbor was we'll attack the American Navy and we'll destroy basically the entire Navy. | ||
| And it's like if this works, then the U.S. will be incapable of projecting power for years as they rebuild their entire Navy. | ||
| But if it fails, if this attack doesn't wipe out their entire Navy, then it's a suicide mission. | ||
| And then we've now kicked the hornet's nest, we've poked the bear in the eye, and the bear is going to eat us. | ||
| Okay, so that's where we're at in America, is we have launched the attack against the left, and if it's successful, then we're good. | ||
| It took them years to rebuild. | ||
| If the attack is not carried out perfectly, if it... | ||
| You know, without a resounding victory, then all we've done is given our enemies all the excuse they need to come after us even harder. | ||
| So, I thought that was a great analogy. | ||
| Fohammer762 on X said it this way, if you're going to be harsh, then you have to be harsh enough that the target is no longer capable of being a threat. | ||
| Otherwise, you invite a worse rebellion. | ||
| I mean, that's a perfect way to put it. | ||
| If you're going to be harsh, you have to be harsh enough to disable your enemy. | ||
| Otherwise, the harshness itself will inspire an even worse rebellion. | ||
| So, that's where we're at, and I hope people understand. | ||
| I hope Trump understands that. | ||
| I hope the people around him understand that. | ||
| And I really hope that gets through. | ||
| Because I think the point we're trying to make here is like, Firings are not enough. | ||
| Eliminating these parts of the government, that's not even close to enough. | ||
| For one thing, Congress could just reestablish them. | ||
| Oh, you shut down USAID? Well, now we have USAID. And it's the same thing. | ||
| Put the same amount of money. | ||
| It's all the same. | ||
| We just do it again. | ||
| It's not enough. | ||
| People have to go to jail. | ||
| A lot of people have to go to jail. | ||
| A lot of people. | ||
| And short of that, it doesn't matter. | ||
| It doesn't matter what else you do. | ||
| Genuinely, it doesn't matter. | ||
| Like, it's good. | ||
| It'll have a good effect. | ||
| You get rid of USAID. You cut off this billion-dollar siphon, stealing American taxpayer money to spread atheism around the world. | ||
| Pay for gay pride parades. | ||
| It's good to cut that off. | ||
| Fine. | ||
| But everybody involved needs to go to jail. | ||
| It's the only way this stops. | ||
| And honestly, it's... | ||
| We just gotta go all in. | ||
| We just gotta go all in. | ||
| Because if you don't actually severely punish them, like in a way that makes anybody else who was like... | ||
| In partnership with them, Elon's doing a great job, but I would like to see him get more aggressive. | ||
| Remember, we have a country to save, but ultimately make greater than ever before, MAGA. That was from Trump. | ||
| When was that put out? | ||
| Is that from today? | ||
| This is 22nd, okay. | ||
| Two days ago. | ||
| That's good. | ||
| But also, what does that mean? | ||
| Just get rid of more programs? | ||
| Again, I'm getting rid... | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
| I'm starting to rethink this whole thing. | ||
| Because the more you think about it, the more you realize, like, okay, nothing they're doing is actually crippling the left. | ||
| Cutting off some of their money supplies, but they'll get other money. | ||
| I mean, you know, BlackRock, it's not going to have any shortage of money to fund whatever the hell they want. | ||
| So it's good that the taxpayers aren't paying for it, but our taxes aren't going to go down because of that. | ||
| Maybe everybody in the country will get a kickback check. | ||
| That's their money anyway. | ||
| It's not like a gift, it's not like a boon. | ||
| It's like, here's the money we stole from you. | ||
| And by the way, everybody's getting the same amount even though the vast majority of people never contributed anything in the first place. | ||
| Dismantling these networks will have a positive effect, but to what end? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Honestly. | ||
| If you don't punish them to a degree that it freaks everybody out, so they're like, hey, I better not do that, then they're just going to do it again. | ||
| Really, it really makes no sense. | ||
| It really, really, really, really, really makes no sense if you're not arresting and punishing these people. | ||
| Because, again, it's almost worse. | ||
| Like, I have a four-year-old, right? | ||
| He just turned four. | ||
| If he's doing something I know I don't want him doing, sometimes I'll just pretend I don't see it, right? | ||
| Because if you see them do it and you don't punish them, then they're like, oh, okay, I get away with this. | ||
| Okay, so I'll just keep doing this. | ||
| But if they're doing it in secret and you just pretend not to see and they think they got away with it, but they don't know, you know, it's like, then they just think they got away with it and they think they're being sneaky and they think they avoided punishment. | ||
| But if you see them do it and then you don't punish them, they think, oh, he's not going to punish me. | ||
| I can keep doing this. | ||
| Does that make sense? | ||
| That we've caught the left doing all this stuff. | ||
| If they're not punished, They're not going to be like, ooh, that was a close one. | ||
| Wow, we almost got punished. | ||
| Maybe we should back off a little bit. | ||
| No, they're going to be like, they're going to double down. | ||
| They're going to go even more insane. | ||
| They're going to go even more aggressively after everything we own and everything we are. | ||
| They're going to legitimately start a civil war and try to kill us all. | ||
| So it's just we got to just, you got to do it. | ||
| You got to do it. | ||
| My God, we have to do it. | ||
| And I'm... | ||
| I'm a little bit not super confident that it is going to get done. | ||
| And this thing, again, we'll get to the Daily Dispatch in a second, but I know a lot of other people are sort of picking up on this too. | ||
| A four-year-old tries to store for candy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| He would be friends with my son, that is for sure. | ||
| I've never, I've... | ||
| I never knew any being could love something like my son loves candy. | ||
| It really is admirable. | ||
| All right. | ||
| USAID exposed. | ||
| Billions of taxpayer dollars wasted for decades. | ||
| USAID Agency for International Development burned through billions of taxpayer dollars on outrageous projects with no accountability. | ||
| Now Trump and Doge are putting an end to waste and fraud. | ||
| And we've all seen these lists. | ||
| So I don't want to just present to you this list. | ||
| I want to present to you the opportunities that this list represents. | ||
| In other words, I could read to you, you know, $7.9 million to train Sri Lankan journalists to avoid using pronouns he and she. | ||
| It's like, what a wasteful farce that is. | ||
| So you cut the funding. | ||
| Great, we just saved $7.9 million. | ||
| $20 million for a Sesame Cho in Iraq. | ||
| Okay, what do we think the return on investment was of that? | ||
| Obviously nothing. | ||
| So $20 million down the drain. | ||
| $10 million in food aid that ended up with Al-Qaeda-linked terrorists. | ||
| Well, that's not good. | ||
| That's not good at all. | ||
| And so they're cutting everything. | ||
| Why would you cut these? | ||
| Genuinely, why would you cut these? | ||
| Rather than reappropriate them. | ||
| That's my question. | ||
| Why would you cut these rather than reappropriate them? | ||
| Because what if instead of all these things being cut, They were all diverted and reassigned. | ||
| $7.9 million to train Sri Lankan journalists to avoid using pronouns? | ||
| What do you think Project Veritas or James O'Keefe could do with a $7.9 million budget? | ||
| Wouldn't that be the best investment America could ever make in rooting out corruption? | ||
| $20 million for a Sesame show in Iraq? | ||
| Here's an idea. | ||
| Give $20 million to me, and I'll make a kid show. | ||
| But you can air on PBS. And we'll make Sesame Street look like a hippie commune. | ||
| How about you make $20 million, and I'll remake Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, but with me? | ||
| Why is the crew laughing? | ||
| Was it that? | ||
| The elbow thing? | ||
| I'm literally Mr. Rogers. | ||
| Literally every day, the first thing I do when I get home is I take off my suit jacket and I put a sweater on. | ||
| I'm like, I've made it. | ||
| I've made it. | ||
| What color are your house shoes? | ||
| My house shoes? | ||
| They're green, actually. | ||
| My house shoes are green. | ||
| I do have a land of make-believe. | ||
| All right. | ||
| All I'm saying is why are we getting rid of all these programs? | ||
| Why are we destroying these very lucrative and apparently effective programs rather than taking them over? | ||
| I really don't. | ||
| I don't get it. | ||
| $5.5 million for LGBT activism in Uganda. | ||
| USAID was funding, I would take that money and fund the literal opposite. | ||
| Right? | ||
| How about $5.5 million for Christian activism in Uganda? | ||
| $25 million to promote green transportation in Georgia. | ||
| $25 million to promote green transportation in Georgia. | ||
| How about you take that $25 million? | ||
| Oh my god, this could be your future, folks. | ||
| This could be your future. | ||
| Give me $20 million, Trump. | ||
| I will be Mr. Rogers. | ||
| We'll do Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. | ||
| will promote American ideals. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I'm just torn because clearly what Trump is doing is good. | ||
| Clearly what he's doing is necessary. | ||
| It's just not enough. | ||
| It's just not sufficient to deal with the problem that we're having. | ||
| Problem that we've had. | ||
| Dismantling these networks is fine. | ||
| It's fine. | ||
| And we've got other stories in here, too. | ||
| I think it's towards this stack here. | ||
| But some woman wrote an article about how the entire middle class of black America, like the entire black middle class is basically everybody works for the government. | ||
| Much of the black middle class was built by federal jobs. | ||
| That may change. | ||
| There's a whole bunch of issues to get into with this headline. | ||
| But basically all of the federal government has been acting like a gigantic patronage network for the left and their voters. | ||
| And whether that's just granting their voters, because obviously the black... | ||
| Population in America votes for Democrats like 98% of the time. | ||
| So they're giving their voters cushy jobs with no requirements, lifelong health insurance, every benefit you could possibly imagine, big retirement package. | ||
| They can't be fired from it. | ||
| And it's like the easiest job in the world. | ||
| So they have just like millions of their voters on their payroll. | ||
| Because they just like find busy work for them to do or just assign them a stay-at-home job where they have to, you know, sign into software once a day and basically they get $100,000. | ||
| And that's like the people that supposedly actually have jobs. | ||
| And then you got USAID with these tens of millions of dollars going absolutely, you know, everywhere except for towards American citizens and decent people. | ||
| Why would you not want to recreate that? | ||
| I mean, clearly, this is what I don't get about a lot of people. | ||
| A lot of different groups we're talking about here. | ||
| But it's like you study the left constantly. | ||
| You figure out how they do what they do. | ||
| You realize this is the way that they've gotten total cultural monopoly on the Western world. | ||
| You identify that. | ||
| You see that that's how they did it. | ||
| And it never even enters into their mind that maybe we should do that. | ||
| Because when the left does it, they're just dishonest people in general. | ||
| And they just claim that they're feeding hungry children and then they just all give themselves a million dollar bonuses and spend the money on their friends or whatever. | ||
| But it works, but clearly it's like having an effect. | ||
| Clearly this has been the way that they've taken over the cultural paradigm in this country and everywhere we have influence. | ||
| So why would we not do that same thing over again? | ||
| But for us, like what? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't get it, man. | ||
| It really is crazy. | ||
| It really is crazy. | ||
| It's like you capture the enemy's stockpile of weapons. | ||
| And you destroy them. | ||
| Use the weapons. | ||
| What are you doing? | ||
| These are the weapons they were going to use to kill us, so we'll destroy them. | ||
| No, they're just weapons. | ||
| Just take them. | ||
| Now you have the weapons. | ||
| Now you can destroy them. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| That's the analogy right there. | ||
| That's exactly what's happening, and this is why I'm so baffled. | ||
| And a little bit confused at how to feel about it, because it's like, okay, the other side is... | ||
| We realize the other side has just massive, incredible, advanced weaponry. | ||
| Huge stockpiles of this advanced weaponry, and that's how they're beating us on the battlefield. | ||
| We're like, we don't get it. | ||
| We're the better tacticians. | ||
| We're the better fighters. | ||
| How do they keep beating us? | ||
| It's like, oh, they have this endless supply of incredibly advanced weaponry. | ||
| So then we retake the weaponry, or we capture the depot, and part of you wants to be like, oh, thank goodness. | ||
| Their weapons are out of their hand. | ||
| They've been weakened massively. | ||
| Then the commander of our army is like, yeah, let's destroy all these high-tech weapons. | ||
| Let's get rid of them. | ||
| They're bad. | ||
| No. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| They were bad because they were being used by those people. | ||
| We have the weapons now. | ||
| Now let's use them on our enemies. | ||
| What is it going to take? | ||
| Honestly, what is it going to take to get Republicans? | ||
| Any of them. | ||
| Any of them to think this way. | ||
| I genuinely have never heard. | ||
| Another outlet other than Infowars talk about this stuff in this way. | ||
| Like, it never even enters into their mind that this would be the type of thing we do. | ||
| And this goes back years, by the way. | ||
| This goes back, I mean, they're doing it right now even, but for years they've been saying, let's pack the Supreme Court. | ||
| The Democrats are going, well, we're in charge. | ||
| We're going to make three more Supreme Court justices and they're all going to be left, left-wing. | ||
| Or we're going to, you know, either expand the court or... | ||
| You know, whatever. | ||
| They keep saying they're going to do that. | ||
| They're going to do that while we are in power. | ||
| And it was probably like four years ago. | ||
| It was probably like one of the earlier, you know, episodes of American Journal where they're saying this. | ||
| I remember making this point over and over. | ||
| It's like we have a gun on our desk. | ||
| We have a gun sitting right in front of us within hands reach. | ||
| And there's somebody across the room, way over on the other side of a basketball court going, I'm going to come over there and take that gun and kill you with it. | ||
| And we're sitting here with the gun going, well, you shouldn't do that. | ||
| And they're walking over. | ||
| And they mean it. | ||
| They're going to kill us when they get the gun. | ||
| And we're just sitting there with the gun at our hand, ready. | ||
| We could pick it up and shoot at any moment. | ||
| But instead, we just sit there going, hey, you really shouldn't pick up this gun and shoot me with it. | ||
| You're getting really close. | ||
| I sure hope you don't reach out and grab that gun. | ||
| It's going to be, I'm going to be real mad if you come over here and grab that gun like you're doing right now. | ||
| And they're just like, they walk over and are going to pick up the gun and shoot us. | ||
| So I don't get it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't get it. | |
| If they say they're going to expand the Supreme Court, the only appropriate response to that is to expand the Supreme Court. | ||
| Am I wrong? | ||
| Is that not right? | ||
| Well, we have to be the principal. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We have to be the principal. | |
| Expanding the size of government can't be. | ||
| And it's like, okay, but... | ||
| Are you arguing to them? | ||
| Are you saying that to them and do they care? | ||
| Again, I don't get it. | ||
| I genuinely don't understand. | ||
| But there you go. | ||
| But there you go. | ||
| I'm just torn. | ||
| I'm just torn because it's everything. | ||
| It's everything about what Trump is doing. | ||
| It's good. | ||
| Everything Trump's doing is good. | ||
| And not enough. | ||
| Everything. | ||
| Everything he's doing is great, but not enough. | ||
| And maybe it'll come, maybe I'm just being, you know, impatient, but we don't have a lot of time here. | ||
| We don't have time for patience. | ||
| And neither does Trump. | ||
| And I've said it before, if you, and there's been a lot of discussion over this weekend about the great man theory of history. | ||
| Which is just obvious and true, and it's one of these things that the left wing dedicates entire swaths of academia to try to disprove reality. | ||
| But if you read stories about great men in the past, their one defining characteristic that they all share is impatience. | ||
| Everything's about initiative. | ||
| We've been talking about momentum. | ||
| It's initiative that is key. | ||
| What's the phrase? | ||
| The winner is whoever shows up firstest with the mostest or something or some phrase like that. | ||
| But sure, you look at Julius Caesar, the reason his name is still synonymous with leader of a country, right? | ||
| Tsar in Russia is just a change of Caesar. | ||
| Kaiser in Germany was the German form of Caesar. | ||
| The reason Caesar became a supernatural figure in human history is because he just... | ||
| Did everything faster than everybody else. | ||
| His armies marched faster. | ||
| When he thought his enemies were going to do something, he just did it first. | ||
| Same with Napoleon, same with everybody. | ||
| It's impatience that is like the key to greatness. | ||
| That's why you don't get mad at Alex Jones when he gets frustrated when things don't happen right away. | ||
| It's like, hey, impatience is literally a characteristic of greatness. | ||
| So I'm impatient, and Trump should be impatient. | ||
| We should not be waiting. | ||
| We don't have time to wait. | ||
| So he pardons all the January Sixers. | ||
| Fantastic. | ||
| That's wonderful. | ||
| It really is. | ||
| I genuinely, if he did nothing else, I'd be happy that he did that alone, and that would make it all worth it. | ||
| They should all get payback. | ||
| They should all get recompense. | ||
| I mean, if you're saying that all of these convictions are wrong, That they're all invalid. | ||
| What you're saying is that all of these innocent people have been put through torturous conditions, have their lives and families destroyed, been robbed of millions of dollars, in some cases been physically disabled. | ||
| Some people committed suicide. | ||
| You're saying that all of those people were innocent. | ||
| So all of those people are just victims of somebody else. | ||
| So who are those other people and why aren't they in jail? | ||
| Everything. | ||
| Everything Trump is doing so far. | ||
| It's good. | ||
| It's not even remotely enough. | ||
| If you pardon the January Sixers, then you need to, first of all, pay them for their pain and suffering they've suffered. | ||
| And imprison everybody involved in the process. | ||
| Every lawyer who prosecuted them. | ||
| Every judge who allowed these convictions to go through. | ||
| I say stuff like this online. | ||
| People are like, well, you just don't understand the process. | ||
| And it's like, you know what? | ||
| If we get stopped because of a process, if our enemies are able to mount resistance, fine. | ||
| But we shouldn't be the ones putting limitations on us. | ||
| We need to be pushing for the most every time. | ||
| All right, welcome back, folks. | ||
| Second Hour is on here at American Journal. | ||
| I'm your host, Harrison Smith. | ||
| Let's do your daily dispatch. | ||
| We haven't done that yet. | ||
| Here it is. | ||
| Folks, your daily dispatch. | ||
| All right, here it is, folks. | ||
| Your daily dispatch for Monday, the 24th of February, 2025. Trump celebrates Conservative Party win in Germany. | ||
| Big German elections over the weekend. | ||
| President Donald Trump celebrated on Sunday after German Conservative opposition leader Friedrich Merz claimed victory in the national election, ousting Social Democrat incumbent. | ||
| Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Trump said on Truth Social, looks like the Conservative Party in Germany has won the very big and highly anticipated election, Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. | ||
| Much like the USA, the people of Germany got tired of the no-common-sense agenda, especially on energy and immigration. | ||
| That has prevailed for so many years. | ||
| It was a great day for Germany and for the United States of America under the leadership of a gentleman named Donald J. Trump. | ||
| He added, congratulations to all, many more victories to follow. | ||
| Germany's center-right Christian Democratic Union. | ||
| One Sunday's national election with right-wing alternative for Germany finishing a strong second according to exit polls. | ||
| Of course, we covered last week the leaked documents that showed what the center-left in Germany was doing to confront this, which was their overall method was to drive the center-right party away from AFD. Meanwhile, Dan Bongino has been named the new deputy FBI director. | ||
| President Donald Trump made the announcement on Sunday and a post on his social media site Truth Social saying great news for American law enforcement and justice. | ||
| Dan Bongino, a man of incredible love and passion for our country, has just been named the next deputy director of the FBI by the man who will be the best director ever, Kash Patel. | ||
| He was a member of the New York Police Department and a highly respected special agent with the United States Secret Service and is now one of the most successful podcasters in the country, something he's willing and prepared to give up to serve. | ||
| Trump went on to promise that law and order will be brought back to America and quickly. | ||
| I think that's a good thing. | ||
| I like Dan Bongino. | ||
| I do have a few questions about it that we'll get to in just a little bit. | ||
| But that was a very significant announcement from Trump. | ||
| And of course, one of the most significant aspects of it is that nothing about this leaked beforehand. | ||
| There really haven't been very many leaks. | ||
| It's part of Trump's success is this surprise that he's able to invoke by doing all these things all of a sudden. | ||
| Meanwhile, Trump fires Joint Chiefs Chairman amid flurry of dismissals at Pentagon. | ||
| The decision to fire General Charles Q. Brown Jr., a four-star fighter pilot, upends a tradition in which the Joint Chiefs Chairman traditionally remains in place as administrations change. | ||
| President Trump fired the country's senior military officer as part of an extraordinary Friday night purge at the Pentagon that injected politics into the selection of the nation's top military leaders. | ||
| Oh dear. | ||
| Oh my gosh. | ||
| Politics in the military? | ||
| I've never heard of such a thing. | ||
| Except for General Milley and all the other ones. | ||
| Except for that the entire military has been poisoned by leftist politics recently. | ||
| And we'll tell you about this guy later. | ||
| He basically spent his entire career going in uniform and giving political speeches about Black Lives Matter. | ||
| Being like, as a representative of the American military, I, on behalf of all of us, want to apologize to black people. | ||
| And it's like, okay. | ||
| Yeah, he should be fired. | ||
| Yeah, that's good. | ||
| He should be fired. | ||
| Meanwhile, Russia's gearing up for historical peace talks with Trump team, negotiations to restart Tuesday in Saudi Arabia. | ||
| Now that a month has passed and we experience just how fast and furious the Donald J. Trump administration is moving, it's unsurprising that the eagerly awaited peace negotiations with Russia are moving at warp speed. | ||
| Some people saying that the war in Ukraine could be over as early as this week. | ||
| Because it was always a week away. | ||
| It was always about one week of talks away from ending. | ||
| It just took somebody in America who actually wanted that outcome. | ||
| And finally, we have this. | ||
| Texas DPS reported a major drop in total crossings on the southwest border from 12 months prior. | ||
| There were over 4,300 illegal crossings. | ||
| On February 21st, 2024. Fast forward 12 months, the total number of illegal crossings on the southwest border were 199. So the numbers dropped from 4,300 to under 200 because we decided to stop it. | ||
| Because we decided not to have an open border anymore. | ||
| And it was as simple as that and as easy as that. | ||
| It's also shocking that for literally years the number was up around. | ||
| 4,000 or 5,000 in this one sector, this one part of the border of just people that we know came in, not including God of Ways or any others. | ||
| So the tap is being turned off, but we're a little slow on emptying the pool. | ||

All right, welcome back, folks. | |
| We have this video from Alex Jones about the singularity. | ||
| Let's go. | ||
| Let's pull that in if we can, please, because I do want to talk about that. | ||
| Elon Musk yesterday wrote, we are on the event horizon of the singularity. | ||
| I don't even know what this means. | ||
| I've got to be honest. | ||
| I have literally no idea what he's talking about. | ||
| I mean, I do, but it's like there's so many possible things he could be saying. | ||
| I don't even get it. | ||
| I think he's probably just pumping Grok 3, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or no? | |
| He's probably just pumping Grok 3. I think that's probably right. | ||
| Musk says humanity has reached the event horizon of AI singularity. | ||
| I think he's... | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, singularity has a couple different definitions. | ||
| And I think Alex actually points to this in this video. | ||
| Ray Kurzweil is how I have heard of singularity. | ||
| And I think that... | ||
| Probably the case for most people. | ||
| That has kind of less to do with AI and more to do with combining humanity and machines and sort of blurring the line between them, which is obviously a big globalist scheme. | ||
| And real full-fledged singularity is kind of hard to even comprehend. | ||
| I've read some good books about it. | ||
| I'll try to figure out what that book is called. | ||
| Basically, it's imagining a future in which singularity has been fully achieved. | ||
| And essentially, it means everything is interconnected. | ||
| Take the Internet of Things, where your microwave is talking to your refrigerator, and they're both reporting back to a Chinese server. | ||
| Imagine that, but every cell is connected to every other cell in the universe, basically. | ||
| Talk about total elimination of privacy entirely. | ||
| Doc Jones responds to this saying, the point of no return from future singularity or the singularity itself. | ||
| Can the singularity be avoided? | ||
| Please elaborate, Elon Musk. | ||
| Yeah, it's good. | ||
| Because when you say event horizon, right, that's the other thing. | ||
| It's like, okay, that means we haven't achieved singularity yet, but we've gone over the hill and we're now rushing downhill towards it and there's nothing we can do to slow the decline. | ||
| So lots of different possible meanings to this. | ||
| Well, let's go to this video by... | ||
| Alex Jones, he posted this saying, we are on the event horizon of the singularity. | ||
| Elon Musk said Sunday, February 23rd. | ||
| What do you think about the statement that he just made? | ||
| Here's Alex Jones. | ||
| A few hours ago, Elon Musk made a very chilling statement. | ||
| And he's obviously one of the smartest people in the world on a wide spectrum of issues. | ||
| So I really respect what he has to say. | ||
| By wide spectrum, he's really proven himself to be an expert in many different fields and areas. | ||
| And that's something that's... | ||
| Really, really rare. | ||
| And he's got the energy and clarity and focus really of a true visionary. | ||
| And so when he came out and said that we are approaching the event horizon or basically at the event horizon of the singularity, that's a big deal. | ||
| They can define the singularity different ways. | ||
| When AI becomes super hyper intelligent and things are accelerating, that's one definition. | ||
| Or to me, the singularity means when. | ||
| All the data and information in the world in any one second is known, and most of the systems we know have become obsolete. | ||
| It's generally associated in most projections with a lot of turmoil. | ||
| I would describe it as the Atlantean moment, whether you believe Atlantis existed or not, the legend or the archetype of a civilization with advanced technology that gets out of control and blows it up. | ||
| I mean, to me, I see it more of as a cascade of little singularities and accelerations. | ||
| The way I've seen history and different technologies operate, but it's true that it's all accelerating and then starts triggering faster and faster, cascades towards something similar to the singularity that Ray Kurzweil talks about. | ||
| But, I mean, Kurzweil gets pretty delusional, too. | ||
| Like, I don't believe in God yet, and I'm going to become a God, and just with paperwork and old recordings of my dad, I'm going to bring my dad back. | ||
| I mean, no. | ||
| Maybe if they scanned his brain completely and everything back then, but they didn't. | ||
| And still, it would just be kind of a copy of his dad. | ||
| So, indistinguishable from his dad? | ||
| Maybe, but certainly, you know, not his dad, even with current technology that we know of. | ||
| So, this is a big deal, though, because I really respect what Musk has to say. | ||
| I'd like to see people comment below about what you think about the words he said and, you know, the huge ramifications of it, and hopefully, Elon. | ||
| We'll respond to my earlier post saying the point of no return, event horizon of there being a singularity or the event horizon of the singularity about to happen. | ||
| You know, it's... | ||
|

|
I don't know. | |
| I don't know if Elon Musk was just saying this to push Grok 3. Clearly he changed his profile picture to the logo of Grok. | ||
| A lot of people are saying looks like Saturn, which it does, but... | ||
| I'm fairly sure that's a picture of a black hole. | ||
| Or at least a graphic representation of a black hole. | ||
| It's kind of even funnier. | ||
| It's a black hole or a wormhole. | ||
| A black hole or a wormhole. | ||
| Okay, the event horizon. | ||
| Got it. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. | ||
| A wormhole. | ||
| Because a black hole, it's like... | ||
| Yeah, you can waste infinite time on this. | ||
| Time has no meaning when you're on X. But it could also be a reference to Saturn, which of course is intertwined with all the Satanism. | ||
| Saturn, the morning star, Lucifer, the hexagon, the six-pointed star. | ||
| It's all very, very well intertwined. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Here's some breaking news. | ||
| We actually have a lot of breaking news, but a lot of breaking news that doesn't have any real solid... | ||
| Stuff behind it? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Over the weekend, I kept hearing these things. | ||
| I was like, ooh, that's a huge... | ||
| Yeah, breaking internet rumors. | ||
| That's a great way to put it. | ||
| Yeah, I kept hearing stuff where I was like, whoa, that's a big deal. | ||
| I'll have to report on that on Monday. | ||
| And I get here this morning and I'm going through the internet. | ||
| I'm like, where are the stories about it? | ||
| Is this... | ||
| Wait, did I fall for a second? | ||
| Did this really happen? | ||
| I don't really know. | ||
| But I'll tell you what's being said. | ||
| Here's the breaking internet rumor from Johnny Midnight. | ||
| Katie Hobbs is now being investigated for bribery, fraud, conspiracy, and racketeering. | ||
| The chairman of the Joint Legislative Committee has informed Maricopa County's investigator that the Auditor General will assist in the investigation. | ||
| This comes after the Arizona Republic detailed how state contractor Sunshine Residential Homes bribed Governor Katie Hobbs and Arizona Democrats with $400,000 and in return got millions more in state money. | ||
| Controversy continues to haunt Hobbes as budget director resigns. | ||
| Now, Arizona is, well, I was going to say it's replete with corruption. | ||
| It is a very corrupt state, but then I remembered all the other states, and I realized, no, it's just a state. | ||
| It's just your sort of average, at this point, standard to be expected level of corruption in any power structure, which left us infiltrate. | ||
| So, not really that big of a surprise. | ||
| We actually have that video, but it does appear as though Katie Hobbs is under investigation, at least by the Congress or House of Representatives in Arizona, for $400,000 in returns in order to get millions of dollars from this real estate agency. | ||
| Very interesting. | ||
| Now, another major story that is just broken, I think I have this story too, actually, if I can find it. | ||
| And we've covered this literally a million times on Infowars because they sort of run the same operation over and over. | ||
| And that is that in order to increase vaccine uptake or to criticize or justify actions against anti-vaxxers, They'll make a big deal out of measles outbreaks and tuberculosis outbreaks and all these sorts of things. | ||
| And they don't tell you what's actually behind them because for the vast majority, almost 100% of the outbreaks of these long, defeated diseases in America, diseases that don't spread around without being imported in, pretty much every single one of them comes from an illegal immigrant community. | ||
| It's usually either from South America, Africa, or Orthodox Jews, actually, is where a lot of the measles outbreaks come from. | ||
| Well, there's been another measles outbreak, this time in Texas and New Mexico. | ||
| Measles outbreaks in Texas and New Mexico sicken nearly 100. Now, this would be a bizarre headline 40 years ago. | ||
| It'd be similar to saying, you know... | ||
| Flu outbreak in Texas and Mexico sickens nearly 100 people. | ||
| And it's like, there's a national headline about 100 people getting the flu? | ||
| What? | ||
| Because measles was like just kind of a normal run-of-the-mill thing that everybody got back then. | ||
| Now it's been eradicated, so 100 people getting it is big news. | ||
| But what's behind it? | ||
| Well, as Washington Post reports, 90 cases of measles, the majority affecting children under 17, were detected in Texas' South Plains, a sprawling region of the state's northwest, the Texas Department of Health and Human Services said Friday. | ||
| The spread marks a significant jump from the 24 cases reported earlier this month. | ||
| The DSHS said additional cases are likely to occur in the outbreak area and surrounding communities. | ||
| Nine other cases were recorded in New Mexico as of Thursday. | ||
| Measles, which is most dangerous to children under five, can cause fever, cough, runny nose, watery eyes, and tiny white spots called coplic spots. | ||
| As the disease progresses, some may experience a measles rash, which looks like small raised bumps or flat red spots. | ||
| There's no specific cure or treatment for the measles other than like, you know, chicken soup. | ||
| It's like chicken soup because it's not that big of a deal, actually. | ||
| The disease's comeback has occurred in tandem with the rise of anti-vaccine rhetoric propagated on social media and among public officials. | ||
| You know, and it's a great example. | ||
| This sentence is a very great example of the way the media lies. | ||
| Because is this a lie? | ||
| No. | ||
| Not on the face of it. | ||
| Not technically. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| The disease's comeback has occurred in tandem. | ||
| In other words, at the same time as the rise of anti-vaccine rhetoric. | ||
| Propagated on social media and among some public officials. | ||
| On the face of it, totally true. | ||
| Totally accurate, that sentence. | ||
| The implication behind it, utterly false. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| So, correlation does not equal causation. | ||
| And these measles outbreaks are absolutely not caused by principled anti-vaccine stances of Americans. | ||
| Don't have a vaccine program. | ||
| And so their people come in and bring diseases that we've eradicated here. | ||
| That's certainly possible. | ||
| But that's not the cause. | ||
| Our anti-vaccine rhetoric is not the cause of that. | ||
| Their poor healthcare systems in other countries are the cause of that. | ||
| And the illegal immigration is the cause of that. | ||
| And the lack of screening is a cause of that. | ||
| But this outbreak is a little bit different. | ||
| This one's actually a little bit different. | ||
| It likely came about because of illegal immigrants. | ||
| After all, if you're legal, you probably have to get all the vaccines required. | ||
| If you're illegal, you get to circumvent that control like you circumvent all the legal controls to immigration. | ||
| So it wasn't a, you know, measles doesn't just arise because you're not vaccinated. | ||
| It's a disease that has to be spread. | ||
| So if you don't have any initial contaminated person, It's not just like, oh, I didn't get vaccinated for measles, therefore I got measles. | ||
| That's not how it works. | ||
| It has to be brought in. | ||
| So it was brought in. | ||
| It had to be brought in. | ||
| Likely illegally because legal people at least are screened more than illegal people. | ||
| But this one's a little bit different. | ||
| That's how it usually works. | ||
| This one we're hearing is not exactly the same. | ||
| Let's go to clip number seven here. | ||
| The Texas measles outbreak is a little bit different than the others because this one... | ||
| It's actually happening with a strain of measles that only exists in the vaccine. | ||
| Let's watch. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right now they're reporting about 48 cases of measles in Texas. | |
| The rate is unconfirmed. | ||
| And the way that they report it is very... | ||
| They say that the individuals that have the measles are either unvaccinated or the vaccination status is unknown. | ||
| Well, of course they know the vaccination status. | ||
| They're just misrepresenting those that are actually vaccinated as being quote-unquote unknown. | ||
| It's a public health trick that happens all the time. | ||
| I do believe that the circulating case of measles is a vaccinia strain. | ||
| And so what probably happened is that it started in a vaccinated individual, recently vaccinated individual that was immunocompromised and got the measles. | ||
| That measles strain strengthens in that individual and then it passes to other individuals. | ||
| So sort of a form of antibody enhancement, vaccine antibody enhancement taking place there. | ||
| And I wouldn't disagree. | ||
| Especially the fact that they claim that the vaccine status is unknown. | ||
| Or they make a point to say, well, some of the people are unvaccinated that caught measles. | ||
| It's like, okay, if you're vaccinated and caught measles, then that means that there's something terribly wrong. | ||
| The vaccine is supposed to make you not get measles. | ||
| It's an old school vaccine. | ||
| It's not the mRNA vaccine where they say it's a vaccine, but you can still get it and still die from it. | ||
| It's just, you know. | ||
| You're less likely to, I think. | ||
| So there you go. | ||
| Measles in Texas, the outbreak likely caused actually by the vaccine. | ||
| Actually probably caused by a combo vaccine. | ||
| Because what did we report last week? | ||
| Last week it was revealed that the COVID injections cause immunocompromise. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Yeah, mostly unvaccinated. | ||
| So what... | ||
| Do you interpret from that that some of them were vaccinated, which means that either the vaccine's not working or it's a strain of measles that is vaccine-resistant. | ||
| But how did that come about? | ||
| You've got to read between the lines, and I think that's a correct interpretation from Children's Health Defense. | ||
| What it means is that the vaccinated were probably the first to get it and spread it to the unvaccinated because you're injecting somebody under a normal immune system. | ||
| Their immune system would react to measles, build up the antibodies, and become immune to it from then on out. | ||
| Instead, if you've taken the COVID vaccine and your immune system is compromised already from the constant generation of spike proteins that's overloading and exhausting your immune system and causing inflammation and a number of other downstream cascading effects, then you get the measles vaccine and a normal immune system would react to it. | ||
| Your immune system reacts to it incorrectly or insufficiently and instead enhances the measles virus inside of you. | ||
| Then it becomes able to spread even to people who have been vaccinated against the normal strain of measles. | ||
| So this is likely not just a consequence of the measles vaccine. | ||
| It's likely a combination of the measles vaccine and the COVID vaccine. | ||
| I'm just speculating, but this is what makes sense to me. | ||
| The COVID vaccine lowers your immune system. | ||
| Then you get a measles vaccine. | ||
| Your immune system doesn't act correctly. | ||
| It empowers the measles virus itself. | ||
| And now you have an outbreak. | ||
| And, you know, the problem with our modern media landscape is that if that was the case, they would never report it. | ||
| Right? | ||
| You know that, right? | ||
| Because you know what they prioritize and what they consider disinformation or misinformation or dangerous, right? | ||
| Or violence in speech form. | ||
| Because if they were to admit that... | ||
| The vaccines caused the measles outbreak, then it would cause people to question vaccines and not want to get vaccines, which, as they believe, vaccines are the reason everybody's alive. | ||
| So, therefore, to save everybody, to make everybody get vaccines, they have to hide the effect of vaccines. | ||
| In the same way, in order to get transgender bathrooms, you have to cover up the rapes that happen, right? | ||
| So we know that if that was the case, some things that, like, we will never be able to... | ||
| Point to the mainstream media and go, look, they even admit it. | ||
| They would never admit that. | ||
| They would cover that up. | ||
| They would hide that. | ||
| They would ignore that. | ||
| You absolutely know they would. | ||
| I mean, they're even being dishonest in this article as it stands, right? | ||
| They're blaming anti-vaxxers on the measloab, right? | ||
| When they know full well that is not the cause of it, cannot be the cause of it by definition. | ||
| Because you have to bring it in, right? | ||
| So that's the problem with the media landscape as we have it, as it exists now, is that... | ||
| We know they have certain things they will never mention, certain priorities or ideological stances that they will never compromise on and would rather allow planes to fall out of the sky and children to be crippled rather than admit that their vaccine program is not real. | ||
| This just in. | ||
| Thank you, Matt. | ||
| Dan Bongino says he has accepted the deputy FBI director position, conservative media personality Don Bongino. | ||
| Dan Bongino. | ||
| I always want to call him Don. | ||
| Dan Bongino said today that he has accepted Trump's appointment as deputy FBI director. | ||
| In a statement posted to X, Bongino thanked Trump, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and FBI Director Cash Patel, adding that his decision to accept the role is, quote, driven solely by a commitment to service and a belief that law enforcement and national security institutions must be strengthened. | ||
| Deputy directors traditionally have a history as career FBI agents, but Bongino has never served in the FBI. Bongino has instead touted baseless theories about the bureau he will now help lead. | ||
| Baseless. | ||
| Baseless theories. | ||
| Literally just reporting what they're actually doing. | ||
| So this is good to see. | ||
| Obviously, Dan Bongino has been very much on our side in this fight. | ||
| However, there are some questions I still have for him having to do with the state of Israel. | ||
| So we'll get to that on the other side of this quick commercial break. | ||
| In the meantime, I do want to remind people to go to thealexjonesstore.com. | ||
| Thealexjonesstore.com. | ||
| Try out the Shilajit Complex. | ||
| Am I pronouncing that right? | ||
| Chase throws me off. | ||
| Chase pronounces it completely wrong. | ||
| And it confuses me because then I forget how to pronounce it correctly. | ||
| He loves this stuff and won't shut up about it. | ||
| It is Shilajit. | ||
| Shilajit. | ||
| Shilajit. | ||
| He calls it something else, and I can never remember it. | ||
| And if you watch the Sunday night show, you saw Chase sort of raving about the Shilajit complex. | ||
| And let me just tell you, folks, a little behind-the-scenes inside info here. | ||
| He talks that same way when he's not on air. | ||
| He loves this stuff. | ||
| He can't get enough. | ||
| He's constantly trying to get people to take it. | ||
| I've resisted so far. | ||
| Maybe I will start taking it. | ||
| I think I will. | ||
| It's one of the newer products. | ||
| And I already take so many supplements. | ||
| I'm like, should I add this too? | ||
| I'm going to do it. | ||
| I'm going to add to it. | ||
| It's got ashwagandha, magnesium, black pepper, black seed extract, burdock root, and Irish sea moss. | ||
| So it's sort of a combination of these superfoods. | ||
| First you have Irish sea moss, which itself is a massive complex of all these different vitamins and nutrients. | ||
| And then you combine that with the burdock root. | ||
| You combine that. | ||
| With the ashwagandha and the magnesium and the black pepper, and you're really just, it's like stacking combo upon combo. | ||
| And I can't tell you personally how effective it is, but I'll start taking it, and I'll tell you what I think. | ||
| All I know is people I trust and people like Chase Geiser cannot get enough of this and won't shut up about it. | ||
| So there's got to be something to it. | ||
| Shilajit. | ||
| Complex, super-infused supplement. | ||
| And, of course, all the products, all of the ingredients in it, I know, have incredible nootropic or vitality boosts that you will appreciate. | ||
| And I've said it before, but I'll say it again. | ||
| If you know how InfoWars operates, and you know we only get our funding from our supporters, our customers, our lifeline, It doesn't matter. | ||
| We can't just sell ad space to a pharmaceutical company and get money that way regardless of whether we're accurate or not. | ||
| We have a very simple setup where if our audience appreciates what we're doing, they go to thealexjonesstore.com, they purchase product, keeps us on the air, and they get a great product. | ||
| And so in order, if we're just doing a crypto rug pull here, we just want to make as much money as possible and then ride off into the sunset. | ||
| Then I guess we could do that. | ||
| But we want to exist forever. | ||
| We have existed for 30 years. | ||
| And in order to establish an organization like this with longevity, we have to sell products that bring people back over and over. | ||
| is why our products are all so good. | ||

All right, welcome back. | |
| Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| This is the American Journal and Forbes.com band.video. | ||
| RFK Jr. has made his first anti-vaccine move. | ||
| RFK Jr. has been Health and Human Services Secretary for all of one week, but he's already pressing what looks like an anti-vaccine agenda. | ||
| Mr. Kennedy never did disavow his vaccine views in the run-up to the Senate confirmation. | ||
| He merely said he wouldn't take away anyone's vaccines, but the HHS Secretary has many tools to undermine vaccines. | ||
| News reports this week he's prepared to sack members of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices. | ||
| This is the group that decides whether and how to recommend vaccines to the public. | ||
| Its recommendations helped determine which vaccines are covered under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. | ||
| That's the program Congress established to compensate individuals injured by vaccines. | ||
| Its aim is to limit litigation against vaccine makers so they'll take the high risk of developing them. | ||
| Plaintiffs can only sue if they first file claims with the special vaccine courts and are rejected. | ||
| Trial lawyers hate the system since it makes it harder to round up plaintiffs. | ||
| Even in that little sentence... | ||
| Do they not realize that they just gave all of the justification ever needed for cracking down on whatever this scheme is, whatever this conspiracy is? | ||
| And you have to understand that it's almost designed to be bad in a weird way. | ||
| So the justification is we need vaccines. | ||
| But vaccine makers won't take on the risk of giving out these products to everybody in America. | ||
| The likelihood that one of them has a bad reaction is going to be bad. | ||
| The way that lawsuits can go, you could take down a whole company with one bad reaction. | ||
| So the theory is, okay, America, the American government will pay the settlements for vaccine injuries. | ||
| Take that burden off of the vaccine makers. | ||
| To make it easier for them to actually make and distribute the vaccines. | ||
| But that's a perverse incentive. | ||
| And so the way that you get the liability protection is by getting on the vaccine schedule, the vaccines mandated for school children in the United States. | ||
| So now the vaccine makers are incentivized on getting their vaccines mandated by the government because when it's mandated, then it gets the liability protection. | ||
| Like 64 mandated vaccines in the first few years of a child's life because every one of those vaccines wouldn't be available if it didn't have the liability protection and to get the liability protection it has to be mandated. | ||
| So it's this perverse incentive structure to mandate things that are dangerous because it's things that are dangerous that need the liability protection. | ||
| It's all very wrong. | ||
| It's all very wrong and backwards the way this works. | ||
| It's also annoying that our tax dollars go to basically prop up The pharmaceutical companies and we take the punishment when they get all the benefits. | ||
| Mr. Kennedy is targeting the committee members for alleged conflicts of interest, but none of the members work for drug companies. | ||
| They're medical professors and physicians with careers studying vaccine. | ||
| But he didn't say the members work for drug companies. | ||
| He said they have conflicts of interest. | ||
| This is just a little rhetorical trick from our mainstream media. | ||
| He said that they have conflicts of interest, but none of them work for vaccine companies. | ||
| Those two statements are completely different from one another. | ||
| Those are not the same. | ||
| Those are not the same thing. | ||
| This guy told me that Jim hates dogs, but Jim has a cat. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| What? | ||
| I mean, all I'm saying is this guy's telling me he hates dogs, but the man's got a cat. | ||
| So these are different. | ||
| What? | ||
| These are different things completely. | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Perhaps Mr. Kennedy doesn't like that they've done research showing vaccines are beneficial and may have, oh no, even advocated for them. | ||
| One member advised a... | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I'm not even going to read this. | ||
| They're literally just lying and speculating and being ridiculous. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Again, it's just the same thing every single time, every single time. | ||
| This is the frustrating part. | ||
| This is the frustrating part. | ||
| It's just they do the same thing over and over and over again. | ||
| I gotta get up here every day and tell you about it. | ||
| I wish they'd stop. | ||
| I wish the American people could recognize what they're doing and not fall for it every single time. | ||
| I mean, here, what they're saying is just total nonsense. | ||
| Perhaps Mr. Kennedy doesn't like they've done research showing vaccines are beneficial. | ||
| What a retarded sentence. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Getting a little angry. | ||
| Which is just, what a retarded sentence, though. | ||
| But seriously, what a retarded sentence. | ||
| RF Kennedy Jr. is like, you know, these guys have conflicts of interest. | ||
| They might not be making these decisions based on what is best for the health of America. | ||
| They might have financial or other conflicts of interest that would make them... | ||
| Push something that's actually bad for America because it benefits them. | ||
| Instead of just listening to that and going, well, let's take a look. | ||
| What are the conflicts of interest? | ||
| Are they legitimate? | ||
| Are they valid? | ||
| Has our health been damaged because certain people wanted to get rich? | ||
| I mean, that seems like it'd be a big deal. | ||
| They don't do that. | ||
| Instead, they say they act like they don't know. | ||
| They act like they have no idea why RFK Jr. is doing this despite the fact that he told them and they reported it in their story. | ||
| They just speculate as if they need to speculate. | ||
| Like, maybe it's because they study vaccines and show that they have a positive outcome. | ||
| Oh, do you think that's what it is? | ||
| You think that's what it is? | ||
| We're not like you. | ||
| Me, Alex Jones, RFK Jr., we're not like you people, okay? | ||
| We actually like reality. | ||
| We like facts. | ||
| We want to be right about things, not just progress a despicable ideology in the face of all the evidence, okay? | ||
| If there's legitimate studies that show vaccines are totally safe, we would love it. | ||
| It would calm us. | ||
| We'd be able to accept it. | ||
| We'd have to look at it. | ||
| We'd be skeptical of it. | ||
| But if it was legit, that'd be great. | ||
| It'd be amazing. | ||
| We would love it. | ||
| What we don't do is persist in a delusion when the evidence contradicts it. | ||
| That's what you do. | ||
| So now they're taking their own delusional... | ||
| Worldview and projecting it onto RFK Jr. and speculating that maybe that's why. | ||
| Maybe it's because they proved vaccines are good that he wants to get them off the panel. | ||
| Yeah, maybe. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| Retards, man. | ||
| All of us. | ||
| Everybody in America. | ||
| They just write stuff like this. | ||
| People just accept it. | ||
| Maybe it is because of that. | ||
| No, he told you why. | ||
| It's because they have conflicts of interest. | ||
| Good lord. | ||
| Should we keep going through this article? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It's making me mad, but now I kind of want to keep reading it. | ||
| Now I'm kind of liking how mad it's making me. | ||
| Mr. Kennedy's concern about conflicts of interest is especially striking given his own ties to trial lawyers who sue drug companies. | ||
| What? | ||
| His concerns about conflict of interest is especially striking given his own ties to trial lawyers who sue drug companies? | ||
| He helped spearhead litigation against Merck over its HPV vaccine, in which he had a 10% financial interest. | ||
| So what are they saying? | ||
| He recently agreed to cede his stake to his son who works at the law firm Visner Baum that is suing the company. | ||
| So he has a financial interest in the company that he's suing? | ||
| What are they even saying here? | ||
| I don't even get this. | ||
| So... | ||
| They're saying that now they're going into a big rambling thing about a lawsuit against Merck. | ||
| They've completely changed the topic of this article. | ||
| Literally every one of these paragraphs in this entire second page is about a lawsuit from 2016 that Kennedy was in some way involved in because he's a health activist. | ||
| This is crazy. | ||
| It literally completely changed, the article completely changed what it was about. | ||
| So it starts off with a headline, RFK Jr. makes his first anti-vaccine move. | ||
| It talks about the fact that he is preparing to fire members of the Center of Disease Control and Prevention Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices because some of the people on that panel apparently have conflicts of interest. | ||
| They talk about that for two paragraphs. | ||
| And then the rest of the story is about a 2016 trial that Kennedy was... | ||
| Vaguely involved in. | ||
| What about the conflicts of interest on the CDC board? | ||
| Isn't that kind of a big deal? | ||
| Do they not think it might be a big deal that people that are mandating you take vaccines for children, for which the companies that produce them hold no liability, that they might be doing that for money rather than concern for your children's health? | ||
| Wouldn't that be it? | ||
| Don't you think that's something you should report on? | ||
| But no, they mention that in the first paragraph, and then the rest of the story. | ||
| Is about how RFK Jr. has a son-in-law that works for a law firm that's suing Merck over the HPV virus. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| What is that? | ||
| What is this? | ||
| What are we doing here? | ||
| It's not even frustrating, like, the thing these people say. | ||
| It's the fact that, like, does nobody else see what they're doing? | ||
| Does nobody else notice that they completely changed the topic of the article to two paragraphs in? | ||
| Is that not weird to anybody else? | ||
| I'm the only one. | ||

Okay. | |
| Great. | ||
| Apple says it will add 20,000 jobs and suspend $500 billion to produce AI servers. | ||
| Spend $500 billion to produce AI servers in the U.S. According to the leftist, this is another total failure of Trump's tariffs. | ||
| Trump's tariffs that are destroying the country are also simultaneously adding 20,000 U.S. jobs and $500 billion to our economy. | ||
| So there is that. | ||
| It is the Obvious reason why these tariffs are being implemented to reshore manufacturing, to reshore these companies. | ||
| And it's working. | ||
| Company to begin producing Apple intelligence servers in Texas. | ||
| $500 billion is planned to be invested in the U.S. over the next four years. | ||
| Apple Inc. | ||
| is seeking relief from U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs on goods imported from China, saying that it will hire 20,000 new workers and produce AI servers in the U.S. | ||
| The company said Monday it plans to spend $500 billion domestically over the next four years, which will include work on a new server manufacturing facility in Houston, a supplier academy in Michigan, and additional spending with its existing suppliers in the country. | ||
| The disclosure comes several days after Trump and Apple chief executive officer Tim Cook met in the Oval Office. | ||
| So there you go. | ||
| Trump Trumponomics at work. | ||
| Trump's art of the deal coming to fruition. | ||
| Strong-arming Apple and forcing them to invest $500 billion in us rather than China and getting 20,000 American jobs rather than Chinese. | ||
| So another massive success for Trump with the caveat of how many of these jobs are actually going to go to Americans. | ||
| Is there any way to guarantee that these 20,000 jobs are given to people born here? | ||
| Or was there some backroom agreement where Tim Cook was like, I'll bring 20,000 jobs, but you've got to give me 20,000 H-1B visa applications? | ||
| Nothing is as it seems. | ||
| I wish I could just see good news and be like, wow, 20,000 American jobs. | ||
| But I know too much. | ||
| But I know too much. | ||
| And I have the feeling Americans will still be busting their ass just to pay rent. | ||
| In an oil field. | ||
| Well, some Indian dude with a fake degree gets $250,000 a year. | ||
| Working for Apple. | ||
| But, you know, maybe I'm just cynical. | ||
| Maybe it'll be great and those jobs will go to all Americans. | ||
| But judging by the pattern over the last several years, not a single one of those jobs will go to Americans. | ||
| It really is insane where our... | ||
| Country is right now. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| Let's talk about Dan Bongino. | ||
| He's like one of those popular people on the right wing right now. | ||
| He was a former Secret Service agent. | ||
| However, there's some questions about his seeming popularity. | ||
| Some people in the know saying that he basically... | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| See, I don't even know if I should, but I have to. | ||
| But I have to. | ||
| I have to tell you what I think about this guy. | ||
| Because I'm like 50-50 on him. | ||
| Halftime, he's awesome. | ||
| The other half, not so awesome, I have to admit. | ||
| Like one thing, I don't even know if I, well, he doesn't like us, let's just say that. | ||
| He's not a fan of Infowars. | ||
| And it's all totally personal stuff that's just like his ego. | ||
| He's sort of very egotistical. | ||
| And he doesn't like it, let's just say that. | ||
| And to me, how you feel about Alex Jones is almost the only litmus test you need. | ||
| Everybody good loves Alex Jones. | ||
| Period. | ||
| Everybody who has achieved victory for Trump. | ||
| Loves Alex Jones. | ||
| And people who are seemingly really good on everything but don't like Alex Jones, that means they're just not good. | ||
| It means it doesn't really matter what else they think. | ||
| If they don't get Alex Jones and who he is and what's been done to him, then they don't get it. | ||
| Period. | ||
| It doesn't matter how many bombshell stories about whatever. | ||
| If you don't like Alex Jones, you just don't get it. | ||
| I can't rise from the swamps of Infowars. | ||
| Oh, so he's one of those people. | ||
| Is that it? | ||
| Did we give him a start? | ||
| Did we make his career? | ||
| is that what happened? | ||
| He's not anymore. | ||
| And I'll leave it up to you to figure out why that is. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| At the same time, he says a lot of the right stuff. | ||
| He says a lot of really great stuff. | ||
| In fact, let's go to that video. | ||
| Now, here's a little clip of Dan Bongino. | ||
| Here's the reason why. | ||
| What's happening is probably a good thing. | ||
| Here he is. | ||
| Folks, they always accuse you of what they're doing. | ||
| And because they're terrified that their tyranny's not gonna continue if Donald Trump wins, they're now doing this simple distraction technique that has appealed to useful idiots for a long time and been used by commies, socialists, Soviets. | ||
| They've used it forever. | ||
| They just blame you for exactly what they're doing. | ||
| Politico recently spoke with former intelligence officials about how on edge the idea of a second Trump term makes all of them. | ||
| Are you freaking kidding me? | ||
| Are these the same 51 intelligence officers who falsely bullshit America? | ||
| These scumbags. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Scumbags. | |
| Every single one of them. | ||
| You hear me? | ||
| Absolute scumbags. | ||
| You don't like the word? | ||
| Too bad. | ||
| That's what you are. | ||
| A bunch of scumbags. | ||
| F**k you guys. | ||
| 51 of you pieces of s**t who told America before an election. | ||
|
unidentified
|
50 former national intelligence folks who said that what this he's accusing me of is a Russian plan. | |
| During the campaign season, you want to be able to understand everything that the Russians might do. | ||
| This laptop. | ||
| That would have changed the entire course of American history. | ||
| Would have kept the border closed if Trump got re-elected. | ||
| Probably wouldn't be a Russian invasion in Ukraine. | ||
| Probably wouldn't have been an October 7th attack either. | ||
| We'd be living in a different world right now. | ||
| Because you 51 intelligence scumbags, knowing you were full of s**t the whole time, now you dare, you've got the balls to say that Trump could weaponize the spy services? | ||
| I'm demanding an investigation if Trump wins into all of these people for a conspiracy to interfere in an election and potentially worse. | ||
| And Joe Biden is going to be the first target of that investigation. | ||
| You will never, ever teach these people that deep state lawfare is wrong without exposing them to the same sets of rules they want to impose on us. | ||
| Someone did steal an election and Joe Biden was a field general in that war on election integrity. | ||
| Listen to me. | ||
| I want an investigation into this conspiracy to steal the 2020 election and no we shouldn't let it go. | ||
| I don't want to hear about oh it's time to move on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's not time to move on or they'll do it again. | |
| It's frightening. | ||
| They stole this damn thing. | ||
| They hid that laptop information. | ||
| You know it. | ||
| We know it. | ||
| I want everyone as either. | ||
| They better give depositions. | ||
| And if they committed criminal activity, I want them charged too. | ||
| The deep state is real. | ||
| It's members of the media. | ||
| It's intelligence community members. | ||
| Here's the key. | ||
| Active and retired. | ||
| It's bureaucrats within the government. | ||

|
Mr. Vindman, you testified in your deposition that you did not know the whistleblower. | |
| Ranking member, it's Lieutenant Colonel Vindman, please. | ||
| You testified in the deposition that you did not know... | ||
| Who the whistleblower was? | ||
| Per the advice of my counsel, I've been advised not to answer specific questions about members of the intelligence community. | ||
| It is saboteurs inside the Trump administration last time. | ||
| The deep state is real. | ||

Tell me, are you worried about this retribution concept playing out? | |
| So there you go. | ||
| You know, you see that and it's like, hell yeah, dude. | ||
| That is the exact guy we want on the team and going after these people from a high level here. | ||
| He's now been appointed and accepted the position of new deputy FBI director. | ||
| But there's this thing, and there's this little thing. | ||
| uh It's called Israel. | ||
| There's a little thing called Israel that just, like, I wish I didn't have to talk about it quite so much. | ||
| But it's like, it's not my fault. | ||
| It's not my fault that it's everywhere. | ||
| And that it seems like every one of Trump's appointments so far has had to prove where their loyalty lies, and it's not with America. | ||
| Now, I might be a little bit wrong on this, but I got a couple clips that have been spread around. | ||
| When it was said that Dan Bongino, and of course we've talked about this before, the way that Matt Gaetz was unceremoniously ejected from consideration, almost certainly to do with his opposition to the Anti-Semitism Act that would make parts of the gospel illegal, and only to be replaced by Pam Bondi, who is very, very ideologically beholden to Zionism. | ||
| And then Kash Patel gets confirmed, and he takes the oath as the director of the FBI and saying next to him is his girlfriend. | ||
| Very pretty girl. | ||
| She's a country singer. | ||
| And her job is a contributor to Prager University, whose CEO, Marissa Strait, I believe her name is, is an Israeli intelligence officer from Unit 8200. That's the Cyber Psychological Warfare Unit. | ||
| From Israel. | ||
| So it's like, okay, so our new director of the FBI has a long-time girlfriend, possible fiancé, who works for an Israeli intelligence operative. | ||
| Cool. | ||
| Cool. | ||
| Just why is every single one of them have one of these twists? | ||
| And then later that day, Laura Loomer comes out with an expose talking about how Ashley St. Clair Maybe running a honeypot on Elon Musk with a whole bunch of Israeli operatives involved in that operation. | ||
| And it's like, I don't want to talk about this. | ||
| Just like every day, there's like five stories about Israel infiltrating our country and blackmailing our politicians. | ||
| And it's just everywhere all the time. | ||
| It's constant. | ||
| And so then you got a thing like this. | ||
| Clip number two. | ||
| Here's Dan Bongino on Tim Pool. | ||
| Let's watch. | ||
| A year and a half after that, I'm in a green room at Fox, and I'm not going to say who because they didn't give me permission to share it, but the short story, but not who they are. | ||
| He says, you know Epstein's an intelligence asset for people in the Middle East, right? | ||
| I'm like, no, I didn't know that. | ||
| I'm like, you sure of that? | ||
| The person, let's say, is like, I'm absolutely sure of that. | ||
| That he's either a witting or unwitting asset, intelligence asset, meaning... | ||
| His plane and that island, the cameras, there's a big assumption out there that these videotapes were exclusively in the custody of Epstein. | ||
| That's a huge mistake. | ||
| The reason they wanted this story to go away is because there's an assumption like, oh yeah, Epstein had him. | ||
| No, he wasn't the only one who had him, according to this source. | ||
| These assets, that's why this blackmail story makes so much sense. | ||
| Which Middle Eastern countries they are, I don't know, but this person who's a very, very good reporter. | ||
| Aces, right? | ||
| Swore Epstein was either a witting or unwitting intelligence asset, and they may have had his plane wired up, and they're the ones who have all this stuff. | ||
| So the point is, to sum it up... | ||
| Can you imagine being surprised by that? | ||
| How do you know some of these countries aren't going to some of these power players who aren't making decisions? | ||
| Because, hey, he wouldn't want this video out there, right? | ||
| How do you know? | ||
| 100%? | ||
| I mean, let's get personal. | ||
| Oh, you don't know which country, huh? | ||
| You don't know which country in the Middle East he might have been working for. | ||
| That's what he just said. | ||
| He's like, we don't know which country. | ||
| It's like, you really? | ||
| You don't know? | ||
| You're not sure about that? | ||
| And you didn't know that there was ties to intelligence? | ||
| Deputy Director of the FBI had to be told, like, after Epstein was dead, like, oh, by the way, he was intelligence. | ||
| Like, what? | ||
| Really? | ||
| Have you looked into this at all? | ||
| Like, how are you possibly surprised by this? | ||
| And are you not embarrassed to, like, pretend that you don't know which country it is? | ||
| This is what I don't get. | ||
| It's just like, why? | ||
| Why are we pretending this? | ||
| Let's go to clip number six now because this is what I mean. | ||
| Some people have seen this and gone, well, is it really that big of a deal? | ||
| I'll show you the next clip on the other side. | ||
| I'll show you the next clip on the other side so I can expand on it. | ||
| I'll expand on all of this on the other side. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Stay with us. | |
| Brandon Weikert joins us on the other side as well. | ||
| We'll talk about the war in Ukraine and peace talks that are happening today. | ||
| Stay with us, folks. | ||
| Stay with us. | ||
| Dan Bongino has been named Deputy FBI Director. | ||
| And I'll withhold judgment. | ||
| I mean, he might be fantastic, and we'll wait and see. | ||
| I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. | ||
| People are spreading the video around that you just saw of him claiming not to know which Middle Eastern country Jeffrey Epstein might have worked for. | ||
| I think the clue might be in his name. | ||
| Name is Epstein, not Al-Bashar or something. | ||
| So I think when it comes to the Middle East, we can narrow it down quite a bit. | ||
| Epstein, not a traditionally Jordanian name. | ||
| But it's like, okay. | ||
| Why would you not say it? | ||
| If everybody knows it. | ||
| Some people probably... | ||
| I get the comment all the time where it's like, just say Jews. | ||
| And it's like, I say Jews when I'm talking about Jews. | ||
| If I'm not talking about Jews, I'm not talking about Jews. | ||
| So it's like, okay, if it's Israel, just say Israel. | ||
| It's not complicated. | ||
| It's not hard. | ||
| It's a foreign country. | ||
| If they're running the Epstein operation, what are you doing? | ||
| What are you pretending you don't know? | ||
| What really was even more concerning to me in that clip is like, how do you not know this is an intelligence operation? | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| There's a billionaire who nobody knows how he made his money. | ||
| He's got an island that Bill Clinton visits and Bill Gates visits. | ||
| And he's running a bevy of underage rape victims. | ||
| And his whole house is wired up with video cameras. | ||
| And Dan Bongino's sitting there going, wow, this guy had a, he was an interesting character. | ||
| It's like, do you need to be told that that's an intelligence operation? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| It's kind of weird. | ||
| Was he playing dumb? | ||
| Is this the whole, like, you know, I don't want to admit that I know this, so I'm going to say, like, wow, this other person told me, and this was, we couldn't believe that they said this. | ||
| They did, not me, but they said this. | ||
| Is that what's happening? | ||
| Is that kind of cowardly? | ||
| Why would you not just say it? | ||
| Again, it's not enough to really, and, you know, Ian Carroll had a response to this that I think was... | ||
| Interesting, right? | ||
| The flip side of this. | ||
| He said, y'all are hating on this clip a lot because he doesn't explicitly say Israel. | ||
| Well, he explicitly said he doesn't know which country. | ||
| Worse. | ||
| But either way, he says, I watch it. | ||
| I feel totally different. | ||
| He's about to be deputy director of the FBI, right? | ||
| He didn't imply it was a country other than Israel at all. | ||
| From how everyone was hating on it, I assume that's what he'd do. | ||
| But actually, short of naming the country, he perfectly explained that the real story of Epstein is some Middle Eastern country, which is obviously Israel, has all of his tapes. | ||
| My understanding is that he's a show for Israel, which is a bummer. | ||
| But again, are you guys sure you're not just jumping on the bandwagon and reposting this clip for views without watching and thinking about its intent and how it will be received? | ||
| I get that. | ||
| I get that. | ||
| And so it's like, okay, he's saying it without actually saying it, but it's like, why wouldn't he just say it, though? | ||
| But why wouldn't he just say it? | ||
| But that's not enough to, you know, convince me on it. | ||
| Then you combine that with clip six. | ||
| Let's go to clip six now. | ||
|

|
That's right. | |
| What cause is dear to your heart? | ||
| Cause is dear to my Israel. | ||
| The fence of Israel. | ||

unidentified
|
What is number one? | |
| Am I the wrong one for thinking that this is all sorts of messed up? | ||
| I actually thought about when I got that clip, I thought about going around the crew and just being like, what cause is dear to your heart? | ||
| What would you guys answer? | ||
| Imagine being a lot of like, well, freedom, America, family, anti-abortion, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Babies. | |
| Babies, yeah. | ||
| These are causes dear to your heart. | ||
| Dan Bongino is asked, what cause is dear to your heart? | ||
| And his immediate answer, without even thinking about it, is Israel. | ||
| Israel. | ||
| That's wrong. | ||
| Like, why is that okay? | ||
| Why do we allow that? | ||
| Why is everybody... | ||
| And Kash Patel had the same thing. | ||
| There's a video exactly of Kash Patel being asked, like, what is your priority if you... | ||
| And he's like, Israel. | ||
| It's like immediate. | ||
| The immediate reaction is Israel. | ||
| Israel is my top priority. | ||
| Israel is my number one. | ||
| That's the cause that's closest to my heart. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why? | |
| So, you know, maybe it'll be great, but it's just like there's something seriously wrong with our country right now that everybody in power loves Israel. | ||
| All right, welcome back. | ||

| I'm very happy to be joined by my guest, Brandon Weikert. | ||
| He is an author, geopolitical analyst, and educator who travels the country lecturing leaders in the U.S. military, academia, and business communities on the current trends in geopolitics and high technology research and development. | ||

| That's WeikertReport.com. | ||
| Brandon, thank you so much for joining us once again. | ||
| Thank you for having me again, Harrison. | ||
| And as always, it's a pleasure to be here. | ||
| A pleasure is all mine. | ||
| And, you know, obviously, I've been talking a lot about domestic stuff today, but let's get into the international realm, which is your area of expertise. | ||
| The latest news is that the rumors are going around that the Ukraine war could be over as early as the end of this week. | ||
| What do you think the validity of those rumors are? | ||
| Well, I think the cocaine train is about to end for Zelensky, and I think that's why he just had a big blow-up with Scott Bessent. | ||
| I was reading a Daily Mail article from this morning about he got into a screaming match with Scott Bessent, the Secretary of Treasury for Trump, because we presented him with a $500 billion deal where basically he would have to sign over a lot of the rare earth minerals of Ukraine to pay us back. | ||
| For giving him so much money over the last, you know, really the last decade. | ||
| It isn't just the last three years. | ||
| And apparently Bessent was left reeling from this because it was so nasty. | ||
| Of course, I keep telling people it's because Zelensky is going through withdrawal right now. | ||
| And I think that's a great indicator of where things are headed. | ||
| I think we will have an end to this war sooner rather than later. | ||
| I don't know if it'll be within the week, but I think that's key. | ||
| And I think another interesting point, a week or two ago, Secretary Hegseth gave a speech in which he basically poured cold water on the notion of Article 5 of NATO. And he basically was... | ||
| Mirroring what Trump has been saying, if NATO members are not paying their fair share, which under Article 3 of NATO Charter, they're supposed to be paying a minimum of 2% GDP. If they're not doing that, we're not going to have their back, and we're going to let whatever happens to them happen to them. | ||
| And so not only are we getting an end to the war, we might actually be getting an end to the cause of the war, which of course is NATO. Right, and Europe is sort of in turmoil right now trying to figure out how to deal with this. | ||
| A story from Infowars, Zelensky's $100 billion of U.S. money given to Ukraine was a grant, not a loan, which is kind of hilarious. | ||
| What it makes me think of is like... | ||
| Half the cases on Judge Judy are like disputes of whether something was a gift or a loan. | ||
| And, you know, a person can't get paid back. | ||
| And he's like, that was a gift. | ||
| No, I gave you my car's loan. | ||
| So it's like very petty almost. | ||
| Like, that was a gift. | ||
| No, it was a loan. | ||
| It's very bizarre. | ||
| This is like the geopolitical discussion. | ||
| But if the crew can bring up that Guardian headline again, this is crazy. | ||
| Furious Zelensky screamed at Trump's envoy for trying to make him sign a $500 billion mineral deal. | ||
| He was so loud it could be heard through the door in the U.S. Treasury Secretary. | ||
| So, yeah, he's pissed. | ||
| But again, you know, as we've been talking about this, clearly... | ||
| The end of the war is like the worst possible thing for Zelensky. | ||
| I mean, if this war ends... | ||
| Well, it's like Hitler in the bunker. | ||

Exactly. | |
| It's like Hitler in the bunker right now. | ||
| And let's be clear, there's a lot of Ukrainians who are literal Nazis. | ||
| So this is sort of how it all ends. | ||
| You know, the barrel of a Russian gun here. | ||
| And it's unfortunate for the innocent Ukrainians. | ||
| And there are many innocent Ukrainians. | ||
| But I would argue that Trump is probably actually the savior of Ukraine. | ||
| If you look at the peace deal that Steve Witkoff... | ||
| Who is kind of the guru for Trump on deal-making now. | ||
| I mean, he's behind a lot of the Middle East stabilization. | ||
| I suspect he's going to be dealing more with Indo-Pacific if there's an issue there, particularly with Pyongyang and North Korea. | ||
| But Steve Wyckoff is also part of the Ukraine negotiations. | ||
| And it sounds to me like Steve Wyckoff is looking at restoring the Istanbul Agreement, which was the proposed agreement that Russia wanted to do with Ukraine. | ||
| If you remember, the Russians were encircling Kiev, and the story was that the Ukrainians fought the Russian invader off of Kiev, and they were able to push back, and then, of course, the war immediately shifted against them again. | ||
| What probably happened was Putin was pulling back from Kiev in the hopes that he could get Zelensky to meet with him in Istanbul and have a negotiated settlement, and at the moment, it looked like Zelensky... | ||
| Zelensky was going to agree to the Istanbul agreement. | ||
| That's when Boris Johnson, who was the then head of the UK, and Joe Biden's people, because we know Joe Biden wasn't doing anything, he had no control, but Joe Biden's people basically threatened Zelensky behind the scenes, and Zelensky pulled out at the last minute. | ||
| Well, here we are three years later, and how many hundreds of thousands more are dead? | ||
| They're going to be getting the same deal they were getting three years ago, which actually is probably more than Putin needs. | ||
| Because let's face it, on the ground, Vladimir Putin's forces are now decisively winning. | ||
| So really, it's kind of a political cost for the Russians to come and negotiate. | ||
| And so I hope they do. | ||
| And I hope that Trump can get Zelensky to do the right thing here and make a deal. | ||
| Yeah, I do too. | ||
| And what you're saying just reflects what Trump is saying, where he says, quote, Zelensky has no cards and will not be part of the negotiations to end the war. | ||
| I mean, yeah, he's... | ||
| Admitting what is just true, that Russia holds all the cards in this negotiation. | ||
| And as you point out, they really don't even have to bring about peace. | ||
| But obviously, this war is not good for Russia, right? | ||
| They're having to spend money. | ||
| They're having to spend lives. | ||
| They don't want it to go on any longer, but they could. | ||
| But it's a possibility for them. | ||
| They're not being brought to the negotiation table out of necessity here. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And in fact, they've been displaying this new Ereshnik hypersonic weapon. | ||
| They deployed it right before, I think, Thanksgiving or Christmas of last year. | ||
| I think I was on talking with you about it around then. | ||
| And the Russians have built many orders of magnitude more of these systems. | ||
| And there is no active defense either in NATO or in Ukraine or even in the United States against the Oreschnik. | ||
| And so the notion that the Russians are at all on the back foot, yes, they bled out heavily. | ||
| And we did try to bleed them out. | ||
| I had a two-star general tell me that in 2022. | ||
| We're trying to bleed the Russian army in the field. | ||
| Well, it didn't work, General. | ||
| In fact, the opposite has happened. | ||
| The Russians are more galvanized. | ||
| I talked to people from Russia. | ||
| They say that the war effort there, it's very divisive politically, but most people want to win because they've bled so much in the war. | ||
| They don't want Putin to negotiate. | ||
| So for Putin, this really is a political problem for him. | ||
| He knows he needs a negotiation, but his people are saying, we fought for so long and so hard, why don't we keep going? | ||
| And so this is going to be the pull within Russia, that political divide. | ||
| And I don't think anybody in the West understands that. | ||
| Everybody thinks that, well, the Russians just want to negotiate. | ||
| They really don't. | ||
| It's Putin who does. | ||
| But the Russian people now are at the point where they're saying, we've given so much, let's go straight to Kyiv. | ||
| And if they really get their way, I don't think there's anything NATO could do to stop them. | ||
| And with the Oreshnik and these other weapons the Russians have built, NATO could have some real problems on their hands. | ||
| So what is NATO to do at this point? | ||
| I mean, how are they not falling in line? | ||
| It seems like they're chasing a pipe dream. | ||
| I mean, this story is from today. | ||
| And by the way, today is the three-year anniversary. | ||
| Of the kickoff of the war, the invasion, that we could have prevented at any point but decided to instead poke the bear. | ||
| The story from Reuters today. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Ukraine hosts European leaders as U.S. backing fades three years since invasion. | ||
| Ukraine commemorates three years since the full-scale invasion. | ||
| Kiev is unsure if it can depend on major ally United States anymore. | ||
| They talk about the mineral deal, obviously. | ||
| But clearly, Europe is... | ||
| We're just going to have to go it alone. | ||
| If the U.S. wants to abandon us, then we'll just have to make up. | ||
| But they literally can't. | ||
| So, I mean, what are they even doing? | ||
| I'm having trouble figuring this out. | ||
| Like, what do they think is happening? | ||
| What do they think they're doing? | ||
| You talk about not holding cards. | ||
| They're not even at the table. | ||
| So, I mean, what is this, Brandon? | ||
| What is Europe to do at this point? | ||
| Well, I think they are highlighting their impotence. | ||
| It's a very flaccid continent these days, and I think they're just proving that. | ||
| In fact, if I were them, I wouldn't even say anything. | ||
| I would continue to follow, like you said, I would get in line, because the alternative is they're going to aggravate Trump to such a point, and you're already seeing this, that he's going to basically say, we're not honoring Article 5 commitments. | ||
| And frankly, I think we should seriously reconsider Article 5. For the countries like Poland, who are spending almost 5% of GDP, I think that that is, and they've been doing it consistently, I think we, okay, we can help them because they're going to help themselves. | ||
| But the Lord uplifts those who uplift each other. | ||
| And we're, you know, the Europeans are not uplifting us. | ||
| They're taking from us. | ||
| And then they're making fun of us, you know, and demanding that we basically continue to subsidize their welfare state at the same time that they're committing continental suicide by bringing in all these third world refugees. | ||
| So unless they're going to start, you know, conscripting the most. | ||
| Muslim masses that they're bringing in from the third world to go fight the Russians in Ukraine. | ||
| I don't even know how this would work with them standing up a European army. | ||
| Right, and not to mention, especially with places like the UK who have said, you know, we're willing to put boots on the ground in UK. You know, what happens if massive unrest breaks out in that country and they've got a million soldiers overseas and nobody to defend the homeland? | ||
| They are in a... | ||
| Suicidally unbalanced position right now. | ||
| There were just the German elections. | ||
| What do you think that impact that's going to have? | ||
| The conservatives won. | ||
| AFD came in second place. | ||
| AFD is the big, you know, let's get out of Ukraine party. | ||
| But I mean, what do you think the effects that will have on the European mood, this conservative victory in Germany? | ||
| If anything. | ||
| I actually, I think that not... | ||
| I think it's an indicator that in another five, maybe ten years, certainly the European Union is no more, and probably NATO is at least in existence in name only. | ||
| There is not just in Germany, in France, all over Eastern Europe even, which does not like the Russians, but even Eastern Europeans are starting to rethink the NATO commitment. | ||
| I think that you're seeing a resurgence of nationalist politics in Europe after 80 years or 70 years. | ||
| I think the reason you're saying that is because everybody's realizing in Europe that we are the pet poodles being pulled between the Americans and the Russians, and we don't want that anymore. | ||
| And that's not going to change unless we on the continent change it. | ||
| And the way you change it is by renegotiating and getting out of these agreements that has basically turned them into a gelded class of people geopolitically. | ||
| And so I think that this is the beginning of the end for that post-war NATO and European Union alliance. | ||
| And I say thank God because these were horrible entities. | ||
| NATO was useful in the Cold War because most of the Europeans held up their end of the bargain and they were truly threatened by the Soviets. | ||
| But now, unfortunately, it seems like we in the West have become the Soviets. | ||
| And so it's time to bring the Warsaw Pact down again, I think. | ||
| Yeah, well, and it's really fascinating, the divide. | ||
| I don't know if the crew can bring up the map of the German elections. | ||
| And there is an extremely distinct line through Germany. | ||
| And on the east side is where you had most of the conservative votes and where the power block for the AFD is. | ||
| That was when Germany was literally divided between America and Great Britain and the allies and Soviet Union on the other side. | ||
| It's all the ex-Soviet areas that are voting for conservatism, not because they love Russia, because they experience communism and are more vigilant against it in the same way that, you know, all these Eastern European countries that were once under communism are now the most Christian, Western, you know, anti-communist countries out there because they experience it. | ||
| I mean, look at this divide. | ||
| I mean, it is stark. | ||
| It's not like a little here and a little there. | ||
| It is black and white or gray and blue in this situation. | ||
| It is. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, that blue area is the AFD. And I made the comment... | |
| I made the comment on Twitter. | ||
| I said, wouldn't it be ironic if Eastern Germany, the former Soviet side, is freer in reality than is the West German side? | ||
| Because that's what it's looking like. | ||
| The AFD wants Germany to be great, not in a Nazi way, which, of course, they were national socialists anyway. | ||
| The AFD is not socialist at all. | ||
| But, you know, they want Germany to be great just as a nation. | ||
| And they're not great right now. | ||
| And everybody knows they're not great. | ||
| And all they're saying is let's stay. | ||
| Let's stand up for our rights and let's stand up for our fellow Germans who are being taken advantage of by everyone. | ||
| And I don't know how anybody in Germany couldn't get behind that. | ||
| And I'm still, though, flabbergasted that anybody in America didn't get behind MAGA. I mean, it should have been 100% of the vote, but that just shows you how pernicious the propaganda can be. | ||
| The information warfare on the part of the left is very pernicious. | ||
| It absolutely is. | ||
| And, you know, it's interesting because I saw a video today of a bunch of young German people sort of celebrating communism and saying, you know, down with AFD. And you sit there thinking, okay, these people that are so vociferously and just dedicated to the cause of, like, leftism and destroying their own country and globalism, like, it's not that they actually believe that. | ||
| It's just... | ||
| In the 30s, they would have been the most hardcore Nazis. | ||
| It's just people who are vulnerable to manipulation. | ||
| Whoever holds the controls, they're going to be diehard in favor of them. | ||
| So it's an interesting thing to realize that Western Europe, through 50 years of liberalism following World War II, is now way less dedicated to Western values than the places that... | ||
| We're severely oppressed by the Soviets where, I mean, literally they banned all the churches and really tried as hard as they could to crush the Western ideals out of existence. | ||
| Well, they've grown up there much stronger than in the West where they've just slowly degraded over time. | ||
| And I wonder how much effect Vance's speech that's still just ringing around my head. | ||
| What are you fighting for? | ||
| What is Europe fighting for? | ||
| I mean, they're sort of in an identity crisis right now. | ||
| I wonder where it goes. | ||
| But in terms of Ukraine, this line from Reuters is interesting. | ||
| They say military losses have been catastrophic, although they remain closely guarded secrets. | ||
| Public Western estimates based on intelligence reports vary widely, but most say hundreds of thousands have been killed or wounded on each side. | ||
| Trump has come out and said it's millions, and he would know. | ||
| He has access to the numbers. | ||
| The fact that there are secrets is probably one of the things keeping this going. | ||
| Because if Ukraine can win and get victory, then all that cost is worth it because they won. | ||
| And hey, it was a sacrifice, but they did it. | ||
| If they lose and then all this information comes out of just how much they wasted, it's a sunk cost fallacy that Zelensky is operating in right now. | ||
| How accurate do you think that reading is? | ||
| I think you're absolutely correct. | ||
| This is exactly the thinking that got us into Afghanistan. | ||
| This was the thinking that kept us in Vietnam. | ||
| But I want to just correct one thing. | ||
| I've been talking to a lot of people in the last six weeks. | ||
| I was told by a senior intelligence officer at DIA that the numbers the U.S. intelligence community is going off of in terms of wounded and casualties Are from Ukraine's government. | ||
| That we do not actually have people on the ground confirming the Ukrainian numbers. | ||
| We're taking them at their word. | ||
| That is a very big problem. | ||
| Because according to the Ukrainians, the Russians have basically lost a billion people and 100,000 tanks. | ||
| And the Ukrainians, those plucky Ukrainians, have only lost about 10,000 people. | ||
| I'm exaggerating, obviously. | ||
| But the numbers don't make any sense. | ||
| Because the Russian military, I think they had two and a half or three million people before the war began in the military. | ||
| If you listen to the numbers from Ukraine and probably the numbers from U.S. intelligence, they've lost over a million people, whereas Ukrainians have lost maybe 80,000, 100,000 troops. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If those numbers were accurate. | ||
| So I'm actually worried that Trump is not being given accurate numbers by U.S. intelligence sources because the U.S. intelligence sources are relying solely on the Ukrainians who, as you note, are lying about what's going on on the ground. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| And, you know, there's a lot of impetus on both sides for various reasons. | ||
| I think Zelensky has personally has a very good reason to keep the gravy train rolling. | ||
| I think, you know... | ||
| You just don't want to lose a war. | ||
| You don't want to be the face of the guy that lost the war because then we see what happens to countries who lose wars. | ||
| Well, the Bandera types will probably kill him before he can even leave. | ||
| His own people will probably. | ||
| So he knows that. | ||
| So that's why he doesn't want the war to end. | ||
| And Germany and France don't want the war to end because they don't want to spend the money necessary to defend themselves when you've got the American gravy train rolling. | ||
| There's a lot of reasons, a lot of different people want this to keep going. | ||
| It seems like Trump's the only one that actually just wants the killing to stop. | ||
| These people don't even seem to take that into account. | ||
| It's very sad. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They don't care. | |
| I want to ask you about it. | ||
| Anything else about Ukraine? | ||
| I want to ask you about the purges at the Pentagon, since I know you run in those circles and ask you about that. | ||
| But if there's anything about Ukraine, we can finish up with that here. | ||
| No, I think we're getting peace. | ||
| I think peace is at hand. | ||
| And once we get peace there, we can pivot and get peace with North Korea and maybe even get a better deal with China and maybe prevent them from going into Taiwan. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| That might be too late for that. | ||
| But definitely, I think we can get a deal with North Korea next. | ||
| That would be great to see. | ||
| And, of course, there are some developments in the Middle East as well. | ||
| U.S. backs Gaza ceasefire extension as Netanyahu looks for more fronts to set ablaze. | ||
| That's the article from Haaretz, I believe. | ||
| So some interesting things going on in the Middle East right now, but nothing, you know. | ||
| Well, I do think Israel is going to strike Iran. | ||
| I think Israel is probably, it could be any minute, I think Israel is going to hit Fordow in a massive, I think they're going to use the Moabs that Trump sent them, and they're going to do a massive assault on the air defense network of Iran. | ||
| They already showed last year they can suppress the S-300 that the Russians gave the Iranians, and I think that it could be this week or in six months, but I think some point in the first half of this year, Israel is going to... | ||
| I completely agree. | ||
| Let's talk about that. | ||
| Because, you know, up until now, sort of the negotiations have been Iran has to stop its nuclear enrichment practices. | ||
| They have to stop trying to get a bomb. | ||
| But the latest development is that... | ||
| When negotiations really kicked up with Trump in office, they said, actually, we want you to dissemble your entire ballistic missile system. | ||
| That's the new demand. | ||
| It was never a demand before. | ||
| Now they hit Iran with, like, shut down one of the biggest and most profitable ventures your country. | ||
| I mean, they have literal cities underground of missiles. | ||
| Literal cities. | ||
| So this seems like an impossible thing to ask them. | ||
| It's a negotiation where you ask for the impossible. | ||
| Because you want the negotiations to fail. | ||
| That's how it comes across to me. | ||
| But last I heard, these talks just completely stalled out because they made this outrageous claim. | ||
| And then the supreme leader of Iran was just like, anybody who talks to the Trump administration is going to be, you know, in prison. | ||
| So, yeah, I completely agree. | ||
| It seems like Israel is going to hit Iran and then Iran is going to go, pardon the pun, ballistic. | ||
| I mean, they're going to go insane and bomb everything. | ||
| 100% going to hit Americans in the Middle East. | ||
| That's going to draw us in. | ||
| I mean, is there any way to avoid this conflagration? | ||
| No, because Israel has escalation dominance right now. | ||
| As soon as the Assad regime fell in Syria, the Israelis were able to go in and reclaim, or claim rather, a large section of Syria along their border, which they can now create an air corridor linking Nevitim Air Base and some of these other air bases in Israel. | ||
| To Iran. | ||
| And they can now fly safely from Israel to Iran and back without really needing to stop and refuel at an Arab country. | ||
| If you remember before the fall of Assad, they were basically blocked from doing airstrikes. | ||
| Now they can. | ||
| It's still hard for them to do it. | ||
| But they really want to hit Iran. | ||
| And I want to make something clear. | ||
| I said this to you I think a year ago. | ||
| Iran already has nukes. | ||
| This is like a dirty secret that Iran has rudimentary nuclear capabilities. | ||
| What they lacked was... | ||
| The delivery systems and they also lacked sophistication in their nuclear weapons. | ||
| Now they're reaching the point, just like North Korea about a decade ago, where they're working on miniaturization of the warheads and they're looking for better delivery systems. | ||
| And so actually what we should have been talking about for the last decade was the missiles because that was actually the real threat. | ||
| Because if you've already got nukes, you've got to find a way to deliver them. | ||
| And so in my opinion, they should have been immediately for a decade talking about drop the nuclear issue because Iran's already got it. | ||
| They should have been talking about those missiles. | ||
| But now I think this is a sign that the Israelis and the Americans understand Iran has already gotten, you know, the nuclear genies already out of the bottle. | ||
| And so now they're just trying to figure out what they can do to box Iran in. | ||
| What they should be doing is going back to the Abraham Accords of linking Israeli power with the Sunni Arab. | ||
| But it sounds like even that is off the table now. | ||
| I don't really understand what's going on. | ||
| You know, I don't really understand why they're doing the things that they are. | ||
| I do not believe we should be seeking to attack Iran directly. | ||
| I think a containment strategy for what we did to the USSR in the Cold War would work just fine in this case. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| But it's all very uncertain and very dangerous times. | ||

| So, true 360 win, thealexjonesstore.com. | ||
| Now, I never really made the point I wanted to about USAID and the money going away. | ||
| I got distracted by calling myself Mr. Rogers. | ||
| The point I want to make is just going through this list and just being like, where would you spend this money instead of where they're spending it? | ||
| And you can just think of an infinite number of right-wingers who do incredible work on two-string budgets. | ||
| You can just imagine what would happen if they were empowered in the way that Democrats empower their patrons. | ||
| Because they don't. | ||
| Because Republicans have a... | ||
| Well, they fell for a trick. | ||
| They fell for the small government psyop, basically. | ||
| And that's what it is. | ||
| And as a small government person, I can admit that. | ||
| Because I've seen it over the last several decades. | ||
| We keep trying to reduce the size of government. | ||
| They keep expanding it. | ||
| And all that means is that they're taking our tax money and empowering themselves and creating jobs and building networks and creating entire patronage. | ||
| Industries on the backs of our tax dollars and Republicans get nothing and have to do everything on a shoestring budget. | ||
| Everybody in the liberty movement is broke. | ||
| It's very pathetic and sad. | ||
| It's also the fault of the billionaires, if you want to know the truth. | ||
| But leftist billionaires just constantly doling out millions of dollars for their causes. | ||
| Right-wing Republicans. | ||
| Don't do that for some reason, which is why they hate Elon Musk. | ||
| He's like the first. | ||
| He's like one of the first ones. | ||
| There's some that are quietly in the background supporting the libertarian movement. | ||
| I don't want to totally discredit them, but when you see how the left sees it almost as a necessity that their billionaires just pour money back into their causes, where are the right-wing billionaires doing this? | ||
| It's very weird what they choose to spend their money on. | ||
| None of it's effective. | ||
| Regardless, you just go down this list. | ||
| $7.9 million to train Sri Lankan journalists to avoid using pronoun he and she. | ||
| What I would do, I think $7.9 is about how much Matt Baker should have. | ||
| Matt Baker should get $8 million to run for governor or create a media outlet, whatever he wants to do. | ||
| He's an activist. | ||
| The man does physical labor all day. | ||
| Works all day and then is out every single day and every weekend as an activist making speeches at city councils or just, you know, capturing on the street interviews or going and catching the migrant operations that are going on in San Diego. | ||
| Like, can we not support that guy? | ||
| How about our government as many people like that that have proven they're doing it out of sheer virtue, right? | ||
| That are doing it. | ||
| And going broke because they're doing it? | ||
| What if they got an $8 million grant from the U.S. government rather than some leftist NGO to send people to Sri Lanka to educate their media on how to avoid telling the truth? | ||
| What if we just did that? | ||
| Again, the point of this is the money's not the problem. | ||
| It's where it's going. | ||
| And if we were serious about fixing this country, we wouldn't... | ||
| Just eliminate these programs. | ||
| We'd redirect them towards where they should be going. | ||
| $20 million for a sesame show in Iraq. | ||
| We already said where that money's going. | ||
| To me, I'm going to be Mr. Rogers. | ||
| Give me $20 million, and I will create a generation of children who know how the world works. | ||
| $10 million in food that ended up with an Al-Qaeda-linked terrorist. | ||
| Okay, I would give that to Presley. | ||
| Why am I blanking on his name? | ||
| To do voter outreach in places like Pennsylvania. | ||
| Scott Pressler. | ||
| That's what it was. | ||
| Scott Pressler. | ||
| He would get the $10 million. | ||
| I think you give Scott Pressler $10 million and we never lose an election again. | ||
| I think you give him $10 million. | ||
| He creates 10,000 Scott Presslers. | ||
| We're registering people in every city in the United States. | ||
| We never lose another election. | ||
| That's where I would put that money, personally. | ||
| $5 million got sent to EcoHealth Alliance, which funded bat virus research at Wuhan. | ||
| See, $5 million, it's a little bit low, but I think you would hire lawyers to go after these people. | ||
| That's what I would do with that money. | ||
| Because you want to take the money that they're spending and then reverse it and invert it to whatever is the opposite. | ||
| So they spend $5 million to fund EcoHealth Alliance to create the coronavirus to psyop the world. | ||
| I think you spend $5 million investigating that. | ||
| You give that to a law firm and say, bring these people up on charges. | ||
| Investigate it. | ||
| We'll do whatever it takes. | ||
| $5.5 million for LGBT activism in Uganda. | ||
| I would redirect that for $5.5 million for Christian outreach in Europe. | ||
| I would try to save Europe from the atheist hell it's currently being dragged into. | ||
| Because after all, You understand, like, we're in a tricky situation because they get to pretend that their spiritual beliefs and moral framework is not religious, and so they get government funding for it. | ||
| It's sort of tricky because when you talk about LGBTQ +, or you talk about, I mean, one of the programs that I bring up all the time, and it's one of the main ones that people talk about because it makes so little sense, is actually funding atheism in Nepal. | ||
| So that's a religious belief, right? | ||
| So you've got the American government, which has this separation of church and state, but then they actually do fund their church. | ||
| It's just they don't say they worship a god, so it doesn't count somehow? | ||
| I mean, LGBT plus stuff, I mean, that's a spiritual belief system. | ||
| It is a moral framework that is contrary to other religions. | ||
| It's a religion. | ||
| It's a religion. | ||
| But they get funding. | ||
| So I say if that's the way it works, then that's the way it works. | ||
| And we should be funding our religion instead of theirs. | ||
| That's just me. | ||
| $25 million to promote green transportation in Georgia. | ||
| How about you buy everyone in Atlanta a gas car? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It's just the amount of money and where it's going. | ||
| The point, long story short, all this money should just be redirected. | ||
| If we actually want to save this country, eliminating these programs is not enough. | ||
| We need good programs that actually promote our ideas. | ||
| And I really, like, we don't have a lot of time for Republicans to come to this realization. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| And the most important one is to give me money to create a children's show. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Meanwhile, Alina Habba, the counselor to President Trump, went on Fox and Friends this past week and warned the left what is coming out soon, saying, quote, transparency is coming. | ||
| Now they're going to panic because they don't want anyone to know who was on Epstein's island, who was a pedo. | ||
| And who is probably still sitting in D.C. Alina Habbo has asked about the bombshell Epstein document that Pam Bondi is vowing to release. | ||
| Pam Bondi apparently says, I have the documents on my desk ready to be released. | ||
| I don't know why they haven't been released yet. | ||
| Hopefully it will be released maybe this week. | ||
| And we don't know. | ||
| But they are teasing it out like it is. | ||
| She says, Alina Haber, this is Trump's attorney, transparency, transparency is coming. | ||
| We had a lot of defiance, I think is the word you were looking for from the radical left, and that's because they would have rather kept us quiet. | ||
| They don't want us to expose the funding that they're getting through NGOs, through USAID. Now they're going to panic because they don't want anybody to know who's on Epstein's Island, who is a pedo, and who's probably still sitting in D.C. The reality of the situation is this. | ||
| There will be accountability, and America deserves it. | ||
| We needed to know what the drones are. | ||
| We figured that out. | ||
| We needed to know that they were okay. | ||
| We need to know about Epstein's Island. | ||
| We want to know about JFK. The days of American government hiding from American people are over. | ||
| We need transparency. | ||
| We've done that. | ||
| We'll continue to do so. | ||
| I'm excited for Pam and now Cash to get in there and clean up this mess. | ||
| Very exciting stuff. | ||
| And, you know, Trump's got it now. | ||
| He's got the team. | ||
| RFK Jr., Pam Bondi, Tulsi Gabbard, Cash Patel, they're all in. | ||
| So let's get a move on. | ||
| Let's see some arrests. | ||
| Let's see some disclosure. | ||
| Let's see some secrets. | ||
| We've been talking about it for a month. | ||
| What are we waiting for? | ||
| Let's do it. | ||
| Let's get a move on it. | ||
| Please. | ||
| Meanwhile, there's a major story over the weekend. | ||
| Trump fires Joint Chief Chairman amid flurry of dismissals at Pentagon. | ||
| The decision to fire Charles Q. Brown Jr., a four-star fighter pilot, upends a tradition in which the Joint Chief Chairman traditionally remains in place as administrations change. | ||
| See, that's a tradition. | ||
| You can call that a tradition. | ||
| It also, traditionally, and as I conceive it, is a major flaw in our system. | ||
| I'm thinking about this speech that's the beginning of a low-key song. | ||
| I can't remember who it is, but they're saying this was back in the Iraq war days. | ||
| And they're going, yeah, we have a new president, but the Joint Chiefs of Staff is the same person, and the director of the DNI is the same person. | ||
| You've got this class of permanent bureaucrats that we call the deep state. | ||
| They also call it the deep state now. | ||
| They just are in favor of it. | ||
| And it's one of the failures of our system, where we elect somebody, but in reality, the infrastructure and the people actually doing the work don't change. | ||
| That's what's different about the Trump administration. | ||
| He's coming in and actually changing those things, actually resetting the American government to be in his control, not in the control of the... | ||
| Faceless, nameless, unelected bureaucrats and military operators. | ||
| Now, President Trump fired the country's senior military officer as part of an extraordinary Friday night purge at the Pentagon that injected politics into the selection of the nation's military brass. | ||
| The problem, though, the little issue with that is that General C.Q. Brown, just fired by President Trump and Pete Hegseth, He was the wokest joint chief chairman in American history. | ||
| He repeatedly preached and practiced racial discrimination. | ||
| This is from American Accountability Foundation at the Swamp Monitor on X. And they have a whole list of these examples of this chairman in his uniform, giving speeches, making presentations, where he is promoting diversity, where he's talking about the importance of Black Lives Matter. | ||
| So this is the dichotomy, the two-tier system, where it's like Trump fires this guy, in part at least, because he was politicizing his position. | ||
| He's supposed to be this totally objective military. | ||
| He's there for the safety of the United States, of everybody, of every race, color, and creed, and belief doesn't come into it. | ||
| I mean, that's who he's supposed to be. | ||
| Instead, he's shown himself and been celebrated by the left as being political. | ||
| As supporting leftist causes and making speeches in support of these far leftist activist groups. | ||
| So they get to do it and we don't? | ||
| Is that what's going on here? | ||
| You get to politicize the position. | ||
| You get fired for that and they say the firing is political. | ||
| It's incoherent. | ||
| They're incoherent in their arguments because they're hypocrites and they're condemning Trump for reacting to what they are actually doing. | ||
| Not that Trump's doing this. | ||
| They're doing it. | ||
| Here's what Trump says about it. | ||
| I want to thank General Charles C.Q. Brown for his over 40 years of service to our country, including as our current chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. | ||
| He's a fine gentleman, an outstanding leader, and I wish a great future for him and his family. | ||
| Today, I'm honored to announce that I'm nominating Air Force Lieutenant General Dan Raisin Cain to be the next chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff. | ||
| General Cain is an accomplished pilot, national security expert, successful entrepreneur, and a warfighter with significant interagency and special operations experience. | ||
| But we can keep going down this list, right? | ||
| You've got General Brown talking about appreciating the value of diversity when it comes to airmen. | ||
| PBS reported on July 28, 2021 that General Brown had diversifying the Air Force as one of his top priorities as Air Force Chief of Staff. | ||
| In the same PBS broadcast, General Brown stated that the beauty of George Floyd's death was that it forced the Air Force to, quote, take a hard look at ourselves and that the military needs to break up the, quote, white boys club and the military needs to make sure. | ||
| That the military has a diverse set of candidates. | ||
| And so he's an anti-white racist who thinks that a career criminal overdosing in Minnesota was a great impetus for discriminating against white people in the Air Force. | ||
| It was a learning experience for him, I guess. | ||
| General Brown then advocated for checking the social media posts of potential Air Force recruits for extremist tendencies. | ||
| And we know what they mean by that because we have the official list. | ||
| Things like, you know, quoting the founding fathers. | ||
| Or flying a Gadsden flag. | ||
| Right? | ||
| So when he says we want to monitor social media for extremists, what he means is we are ideologically purging the military of patriots. | ||
| Okay, so this is the takeaway. | ||
| This is the irony. | ||
| This is the hypocrisy of the left. | ||
| The reason he was fired is because he took a non-political position. | ||
| And politicized the hell out of it, discriminated against white people, pushed far-left ideas, used ridiculous excuses to justify his anti-white discrimination, and so he got fired. | ||
| And then they're saying, this is politicizing it. | ||
| No, he politicized it. | ||
| Shut up. | ||
| Just shut up. | ||
| It keeps going. | ||
| On February 11th, 2021, People magazine interview, he stated, we've got closely managed our diverse populations, make sure their development and opportunities aren't happening by luck. | ||
| An interview with Washington Post posted on YouTube on January 25th, 2021. We've got to actually nudge and poll and actually purposely manage to ensure that we have diverse candidates for a leadership position. | ||
| Diverse means non-white. | ||
| That's all he's saying. | ||
| That's all he's saying is we have to really work and coordinate to make sure we're discriminating against white people. | ||
| So again, good riddance. | ||
| He should have never been in a position in the first place. | ||
| And if it was just one of these things, okay, maybe you could say he didn't know what he was talking about or whatever. | ||
| But the fact is, this list just goes on and on and on and on and on and it's like clearly this is what he was about. | ||
| Like this is just what he did. | ||
| He just got into this position and was like, okay, how do I discriminate against white people and benefit black people? | ||
| And politicize this position. | ||
| So, good riddance. | ||
| Goodbye. | ||
| With Pentagon purge, Trump thrusts military into uncharted territory. | ||
| The abrupt removal of six top officers has deepened concern among the president's critics who fear he intends to impose his political will on the nonpartisan institution. | ||
| Okay, but if it's not a nonpartisan, if it is in fact now fully captured by partisan interests, then how does that change your interpretation, Washington Post? | ||
| These little assumptions that... | ||
| Provide the foundation for these statements, what if those assumptions are provably and abjectly false? | ||
| Then maybe what's happening is that the problem you have, which is that you're interpreting this as Trump making it partisan, what if it's the exact opposite? | ||
| And what if you know that? | ||
| And what if you're framing it as partisan in order to make an argument dislocated and unencumbered by fact and reality, but instead just a patent psychological operation? | ||
| To add yet another little stab into the credibility of Trump. | ||
| There's another reason for people that don't like Trump to act like what he's doing is dangerous or harming tradition or making a typically nonpartisan office into a servant of Trump. | ||
| They just are putting these things out drip by drip to eventually flood the United States and flood the minds of the American people with the overall concept that Trump is hijacking nonpartisan organizations for his own ends when the reality is literally the exact opposite. | ||
| President Trump's Friday night purge of the Pentagon's top officers and five other senior officers has thrust the institution into uncharted territory with the retired general plucked from obscurity to serve as the commander-in-chief's next senior military advisor and growing alarm amongst Trump critics that the encroachment of political warfare on an organization bound by the Constitution to remain nonpartisan. | ||
| So they violated the Constitution by being partisan. | ||
| And now they've been ousted. | ||
| So I guess without your baseless assertion that these people are nonpartisan, your whole argument kind of falls apart because they are partisan. | ||
| They've been proved to be partisan. | ||
| And they all are because it's an institutional rot that it's been allowed to fester for too long. | ||
| And now Trump is correcting things. | ||
| So you're welcome. | ||
| Meanwhile, MSNBC president holds a rush meeting with Joy Reid's staff after shows cancellation leaks to the media. | ||
| The new president of MSNBC, Rebecca Cutler, held an unplanned virtual meeting with Joy Reid's staff after the show's cancellation was leaked and made public earlier this weekend. | ||
| An audio recording of the meeting about the leak was subsequently leaked to the media. | ||
| Gee, what happens when your entire organization becomes infested with disloyal scum? | ||
| This is why the left always fails. | ||
| This is why eventually, despite their aggressiveness, despite their willingness to bend the rules or outright lie, they always fail because that side just attracts bad people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So there you go. | |
| This recording was obtained by former CNN reporter Oliver Darcy. | ||
| All of our enemies are just going away. | ||
| Isn't that nice? | ||
| Isn't it crazy? | ||
| They're all gone now? | ||
| And you go back and watch an Infowars broadcast from like 2021 or 2022 or before. | ||
| I mean, there's a lot, there's probably a lot of responses, people from CNN who don't work there anymore. | ||
| Oliver Darcy, gone. | ||
| Don Lemon, gone. | ||
| Brian Stelter, gone. | ||
| Joy Reid now, gone from SNBC. So we're winning. | ||
| So I think the point is we're winning and now I'm sure Joy Reid. | ||
| We'll go the Don Lemon route. | ||
| She'll probably make a YouTube channel and get fewer views than a 10-year-old Minecraft player, which won't be a big change because MSNBC is already being beaten in the ratings by Hallmark reruns. | ||
| So that's why she's being fired, I think. | ||
| And what it represents is the end of the cultural dominance. | ||
| People like Joy Reid, We're there to push a message, to push a viewpoint. | ||
| Not because she was right, not because she was talented in any way. | ||
| She had a role to play to be the spokesperson for the insane nonsense that was tricking people in the past. | ||
| Now nobody's being tricked by that, so the people whose role that was are now being taken out as the left has decided that... | ||
| They're losing and they need to change their strategy Despite MSNBC's assurances that new roles will be available, staffers exited the meeting shaken. | ||
| The shock of learning about their show's fate, married with uncertainty about what comes next, spurred significant frustration with MSNBC brass, which came through during the Sunday meeting, while Cutler appointed more than 100 new jobs being posted this week as a sign of hope for the staffers. | ||
| For those who have worked on the readout, the meeting drove home a difficult reality. | ||
| Their show is over, and their future at the Progressive Network is certain. | ||
| Is uncertain. | ||
| Not certain. | ||
| I'd go even farther. | ||
| Their show is over. | ||
| Their domination is over. | ||
| Their worldview is over. | ||
| It's not their future at the network that's over. | ||
| It's the future of their ideology. | ||
| It's the future of the scam they've been running on the American people for the last several decades. | ||
| It's all over. | ||
| It's all going away now. | ||
| We're going to get back to normal. | ||
| We're going to have people on TV that know what the hell they are talking about and aren't. | ||
| Well, they don't. | ||
| Joy Reid inspires a visceral reaction in me with the way she looks and her hair. | ||
| So we need people that don't scare the audience. | ||
| Finally, we have this. | ||
| Hungarian PM Orban, mothers with two or more children, will receive lifetime of income tax exemption. | ||
| We will enshrine two genders in the Constitution. | ||
| Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is fired up by the new golden age with Donald J. Trump's victory and ensuring the start of the peace negotiations between U.S. and Russia. | ||
| And Orban's done something like this before, but he's just taking it even further now. | ||
| I would love to see America have a similar operation happen here. | ||
| I'd prefer that to getting rid of the IRS entirely. | ||
| Honestly, this sounds better to me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just... | |
| Just make it to where anybody with kids never has to interact with the IRS again. | ||
| Anybody without kids has to pay for the fact that they're the reason that our race is dying. | ||
| Yeah, give that money to the parents so we can actually have a future. | ||
