joe rogan ▲ ● ▼		Organization protests in Seattle when he showed that there was these groups of masked men who dressed in military uniforms at military issue shoes.
		And they all ran around in this peaceful protest for the World Trade Organization and started smashing things and lighting things on fire and creating chaos, which allowed the police to then move in.
		Then these people all holed up in one house.
		They negotiated with the police and they were all released.
unidentified		While the labor march was large and peaceful, it was the unexpected violence that captured most of the media attention.
		Innocent bystanders walking along the sidewalk are getting tear gassed.
		And while the governor made assurances this morning things are back to normal, they're definitely not.
		The state of emergency was just an hour old.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		The state of emergency that they've been training for so long to deal with.
		Who was behind it?
		What caused it in Seattle in December of 1999?
		The World Trade Organization meeting.
		The riots, the supposed riots, and the military and police working together to keep the public safe from all that evil rabble.
		In recent years, the WTO, since its inception, has come across incredible opposition worldwide because of its obvious authoritarian implications.
		That's a hard thing to deal with when you've got highly motivated people that have real complaints and valid issues.
		How do you deal with it?
		Well, you simply call in your friends.
		Nobody was directly confronting the police.
joe rogan ▲ ● ▼		No one laid hands on anybody.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Nobody touched property.
unidentified		And they're arrested anyway, solely because the WTO comes to town.
unidentified		China and other foreign governments wander in here.
matt baker ▲ ● ▼		And now they're gassing everybody.
matt baker ▲ ● ▼		What did you see here?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Did you see any violence?
unidentified		In downtown Seattle today, the First Amendment ended at 4th and Spring.
unidentified		Not only could you not say what's on your mind, you couldn't wear it.
matt baker ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, sir, sir, sir.
matt baker ▲ ● ▼		Let's not get into a big scuffle over it.
unidentified		This man had an anti-WTO sticker on his backpack.
matt baker ▲ ● ▼		You took it off my face.
matt baker ▲ ● ▼		No protest down here.
unidentified		No protest.
unidentified		You saw what happened yesterday to your city.
matt baker ▲ ● ▼		We're not going to let it happen again, okay?
unidentified		Not allowed to have a sticker.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Not here.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		The left coast communists posing as anarchists under Delta Force direction.
unidentified		Broke windows at the gap.
		They're smashing windows at McDonald's.
		They're dumping over garbage cans.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		What's wrong with this picture?
		If the police are supposedly there to protect the public and property, then why?
		Why did state police, Seattle police, as well as the feds, stand back and allow the anarchists en masse to run around and throw bottles at police, cones, rocks, you name it, and assault private property as well as members of the general public?
		You see, the anarchists were actually given their own operations base.
unidentified		Seven days after they commandeered this downtown building, anarchists walked away without a word from police.
		Feels to me like we won.
		The building is owned by the Low Income Housing Institute, a private nonprofit that is in large part funded by the city and is now working with the city to house the anarchists.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		All started by 30 to 40 anarchists running around, burning and beating and smashing and stealing.
		And the police, like dogs at the end of a chain, a rottwater you've been slapping, suddenly had their leashes released and with wanton abandon, they rampaged out in a berserk fashion and attacked old ladies, store owners, you name it.
		And then they got to ship everybody to the FEMA center.
		That's right.
		FEMA was helping during this learning process for everyone.
unidentified		We've seen 400 people arrested.
		The facility at Sand Point were told this fall, we're told they did not create another one at Bowling Field.
		So why didn't the police department arrest the anarchists when they moved out of that building?
		Well, that's a question a lot of people are asking, especially since the West Precinct is just down the block.
		We asked the police department this weekend.
		We asked them again today.
		They still haven't returned our call with an answer.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		It's a staged, managed operation.
		These same anarchists have been using Washington, D.C. to create a state of emergency.
		For a day, they allow them to spray paint pig on police cars and attack officers.
		And then the police are released once they're at fever pitch.
		They are useful tools to neutralize the general population's ability to engage in political protest.com.
unidentified		It's Wednesday, August 13th 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.
		I think it's time of those.
		Get everybody to stuff together.
		Okay, three, two, one, let's jam.
		Okay, three, two, one, let's jam.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
		Welcome to the American Journal.
		I'm your host, Harrison Smith.
unidentified		Coming to you live this morning from Austin, Texas.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		It's Wednesday, the 13th of August, 2025, and we got a lot to talk about.
		We got a lot of goings on.
		We'll be joined by Brandon Weickert in the third hour, 10 a.m. Central Standard Time.
		He is, of course, a geopolitical analyst, and we'll be getting into what to expect with the Russia summit happening in Alaska at a military base.
		He's been pretty dead on accurate as to the developments of the Ukraine war over the last two years.
		So we're excited to see what he thinks the outcome of this will be.
		We'll talk about the Ukraine war and the potential for peace.
		But of course, the major story today continues to be the rollout of the National Guard on American City streets to deal with the out-of-control crime problem.
		People, again, having a lot of trouble wrapping their minds around this.
		Again, that's just so simple.
		Really could not be more simple.
		If you let the criminals in your city run rampant, kill and rob everybody, then somebody else has to step up and do your job for you.
		So it's really not that complicated.
		It's really not that hard.
		We've got lots of stories about this.
		People just absolutely outraged that they can't behave however they want with absolutely no repercussions.
		Now, there's going to be repercussions.
		And the point of the repercussions is to get you to change your behavior, not to impose the repercussions.
		Do you understand this?
		Do you understand?
		Like, we've got stories today about Donald Trump.
		He's going to be scooping up the homeless and throwing them into asylums.
		Obviously, I don't think that's true.
		But if it was, I guess the advice would be don't camp on the sidewalk.
		There you go.
		Problem solved.
		Just don't camp on the sidewalk.
		If you got to camp, do it outside of the city boundaries.
		Is that really so hard to do or just go under an overpass somewhere?
		Like nobody cares if people are camped out somewhere where they're not bothering anybody and they're not in anybody's way.
		It's fine.
		These people are putting up 15-person tents in the park.
		I mean, the ones in Austin, the one that me and Owen went, walked around in, they had a freaking swimming pool in their camp.
		Not exaggerating.
		I'm not being facetious.
		There was a literal inflatable swimming pool filled with water at the homeless camp.
		Okay, that's not acceptable and you can't do that.
		You can't just pop up a little hobo motel in the middle of a park where children play, you know, to shoot heroin.
		You just have to stop doing that or else you get arrested.
		So that really is like, I mean, it's just the classic meme of like the, there's a kid laying there and it looks like his head is being stomped on, but then it zooms out and it's just his own hand.
		That is, that is the Democrats at this point.
		It's just they are oppressed by their own inability to just behave correctly.
		They're being oppressed by their unwillingness to just follow basic laws and have just a modicum of respect for the people around them.
		They can't Do it.
		They can't do it.
		And it's the same across the board.
		Illegal immigration.
		Oh my God, you can't send people to Alligator Alcatraz.
		This is so brutal.
		You can't send people to El Salvador.
		You can't arrest people on the street with masked goons chasing people down and throwing them into vans.
		It's like, no, we can do that.
		And what you can do to avoid all of that is just go home.
		Okay, so you want to stay here.
		You want to break our laws.
		You want to ignore the fact that you know this is coming.
		And then you want to get mad when the inevitable consequence falls down on your head.
		Just go home.
		Just go home.
		It's unbelievably simple.
		Okay, same thing with crime.
		Just stop committing crime and you won't have to be, you don't have to worry about being thrown into prison.
		I mean, is this really so hard?
		Is this really so hard, folks?
	So, yeah, we'll touch on all of that.
	I just put some videos in there too that we'll go to.
	We've got the upcoming Russia-Ukraine summit.
	We have a lot of, we've got a lot of discussion about the inevitable reignition of the Iran-Israel conflict.
	That is to say, there's a lot of people talking right now as if the second Israeli war on Iran will erupt at any moment.
	And I guess the question I have is: what's Iran doing?
	What is Iran doing?
	Why do I just keep feeling the same thing about all of that?
	Like, same thing that we have with the likes of Beter O'Rourke and others saying, hey, when we get back into office, we're going to go nuts, y'all.
	When we get back into office, it's no holds barred, no rules, retribution.
	We're going to throw all the Republicans in prison.
	And all the Republicans are saying they're like, sure, buddy.
	And it's like, no, you take this seriously.
	What is going on?
	Why are you not taking this seriously?
	They're telling you what they're going to do, and then you're just waiting for them to do it.
	But why, though?
	And same thing with Iran and Israel.
	It's like, if I was Iran, if I was Iran.
	Oh, if I was Iran.
	Sorry, what was I saying?
	Sorry, I just went off into a fantasy world.
	Sorry, I just sound of air raid sirens, smell of napalm.
	Sorry, what was I saying?
	If I was Iran and I heard Israel is readying an imminent attack, why wouldn't you just start raining missiles down on him?
	What is happening here?
	Hey, I was looking back again at some of the early coverage that we were doing after October 7th.
	I was like, we got a lot of stuff right.
	And the predictions that I personally got wrong was because I was right.
	Is this confusing?
	In other words, early, early on, like October 9th and 10th, 2023, it was like, all right, if Israel goes into Gaza, Hezbollah is going to hit them from the north, and that's really going to like, they can't handle that.
	They can't handle this war in the south with Gaza while being attacked with full force from Hezbollah.
	Like, that's going to split their forces, and they're really going to be in trouble.
	And that would have been true if Hezbollah really launched a massive large-scale attack.
	Why didn't they?
	God only knows.
	I don't know.
	I don't know why they didn't.
	They should have.
	They should have.
	I think the obvious exclamation point of that is that their entire leadership got wiped out.
	The Pedro attack, the airstrikes.
	Why?
	I mean, why didn't you go into Israel when they went into Gaza?
	That's what you said you were going to do, and then you didn't do it.
	And then all of your leadership got murdered.
	And now the Americans are pressuring the Lebanese state to disarm you entirely.
	So it's like, okay, my prediction was that Hezbollah was going to enter into the fight in a full force way because that was, in fact, the right strategic move to make.
	They didn't.
	So I was wrong in that prediction, but they were wrong to not do the attack because now they're all dead.
	Okay, same thing.
	Same thing with Iran.
	And it's the same thing.
	It really is like this bizarre consistency of all of these various dichotomies where it's the same thing with Republicans and Democrats, where it's like, why does one side never take the initiative?
	Now, you might say, well, because if Iran just like launched a sudden attack against Israel, they would be seen as the aggressors and it would be really bad for them because they would be seen as this terrorist stage is like randomly bombing.
	But like, is that not exactly what Israel and America did to Iran?
	Right?
	There was no buildup of like negotiations that crumble and then like war gets declared and then they both, no, Israel just launched attacks against Iran and like murdered all of their military leadership and assassinated all of their nuclear scientists and bombed all of their military sites.
	And they just did it one day out of nowhere.
	So again, I mean, unless I'm missing something, it's just like, if you're Iran and you've already been sneak attacked by Israel earlier this year, and then America joined in on the sneak attack.
	And now they're, I mean, clearly their goal is your ultimate removal and destruction.
	You know, they're not going to stop.
	And so like, part of me is like, why, like, so now they've just spent the last, what, two months or so, two or three months, rearming, resupplying their, you know, air defenses in the Iron Dome, you know, recalibrating their, you know, military activity.
	They've been able to lock down Gaza to an even greater degree.
	And so if you're Iran, like, A, why did you ever let up on Israel?
	I guess to avoid America getting involved, but again, I just don't, I just don't get it.
	I don't get it.
	If I was Iran right now, I'd be launching missiles.
	I'd be taking out Haifa.
	I'd be destroying all of the Israeli warplanes that are sitting on the tarmac right now with my hypersonic, unstoppable missiles.
	Like, what?
	Okay, but they're not.
	So we're all just going to wait until Israel launches another attack against Iran.
	I don't get it.
	I just don't get it, honestly.
	Why does one side always get the initiative and the other side is always responding always, every single time?
	Again, this is like the Israelis always attack first.
	Unless, of course, something like October 7th, where Hamas attacks with Israeli permission in order to give them the ability to strike back.
	But we'll get into all of that and we'll look at where these signals are coming from that Israel will be attacking Iran.
	I mean, it's never been a question for me.
	It's always just a matter of when, not if, the war against Iran would be ginned up again.
	And we reported yesterday on the 400,000 Israeli reservists that have been called forth, ostensibly to invade Gaza.
	I'll tell you, even Gaza, I don't think you need 400,000 soldiers to take care of.
	That does sound a bit more like a Iranian operation to me.
	But we'll look into that.
	I just don't understand why all of Israel's enemies just don't do anything.
	It's very weird.
	Am I the only one?
	And same thing with like Bashir al-Assad in Syria.
	You know, if he could go back in time, if he could see the way that his country was collapsed in two weeks and taken over by actual Islamic extremists that are at this very moment oppressing and brutally repressing the Shia and Alawite and Christian communities there in Syria,
	if he could see that he would soon be ousted and end up working as an eye doctor in Russia somewhere, do you think going back in time he would have been quite so patient?
	And it really is the frustration of all of this.
	And it just goes back to anybody that studies history, it's, I mean, history is decided almost entirely by initiative.
	It's all initiative.
	It's all who does the thing first.
	Who, and, you know, the classic phrase is like, who gets their firstest with the mostest or there's some phrase like that.
	It's literally what it is.
	Julius Caesar is Julius.
	We still remember his name because he was impatient, because he was faster than everybody else.
	His armies marched faster.
	He reacted faster.
	He didn't wait for his enemies to attack him.
	So he felt justified.
	He crossed the damn Rubicon and he took over and he made himself emperor.
	And now, to this day, the leaders of Russia and Germany were named after him.
	Like that's greatness.
	Napoleon, exactly the same thing.
	Always the fastest, always acting more aggressively, always taking the initiative, never waiting for permission, never waiting for the other person to move first, just acting, acting first, forcing them to react to you over and over again.
	George Washington crossing the Delaware on Christmas.
	Was that a polite thing to do?
	Was that a fair thing to do?
	No, it was him seizing the initiative.
	It was him acting in a way that the enemy didn't expect to put him on his back foot and put him in the defensive.
	And it eventually led to the winning of the war.
	Throughout all of history, it's not about who has the most people or even who has the, you know, it absolutely has nothing to do with who has the better argument or who's actually right.
	Look at the Civil War for that one.
	No, it's about initiative.
	It's about who just does the thing to the other person.
	And for some reason, it's almost like we've been assigned roles where it's just like, okay, you're a Republican.
	That means you never do anything to seize the initiative.
	You never do anything out of the ordinary.
	You never do anything that hasn't been already well established by precedent.
	And Democrats, you get to do whatever the hell you want, whenever the hell you want, and put the Republicans on the back foot in turmoil, on the defense constantly.
	Exact same dichotomy with Israel and its neighbors.
	Again, you could say October 7th would be a reversal of that, but that's only if you start the conflict there and you don't see October 7th as just another attack in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Gaza, which of course was like, yeah, occasionally Gaza would launch a few rockets at Israel and then every couple of years, Israel would go in and like massacre thousands of them.
	And of course, the fact that October 7th wasn't a surprise in the first place.
	And was Israel just granting itself the permission to do what it always wanted to do?
	So again, just where is the initiative?
	Where is the aggressiveness on the other side?
	So we'll get into that.
	We'll talk about that.
	We'll begin today, as we do every day, with our Daily Dispatch.
	All right, here it is, folks, your daily dispatch for Wednesday, the 13th of August, 2025.
	Trump's takeover of Washington law enforcement begins as National Guard troops arrive.
	On August 11th through 13th, 2025, President Trump ordered federal forces and 800 National Guard troops to take control of Washington, D.C. police department to address crime.
	Trump declared a state of emergency, citing a crime emergency, despite official data showing violent crime fell 26% and car trackings dropped about 50%.
	Yes, despite the fact that D.C. has been fudging its crime statistics, they still are sending out police to deal with the very real crime that's happening at an increased clip observable by anybody with eyes.
	Attorney General Pam Bondi declared crime in D.C. is ending and ending today and called the Justice Department's cooperation with the city government productive.
	The deployment escalated tensions, sparking protests in D.C., reflecting concerns about federal overreach, despite falling crime rates and legal authority allowing federal temporary control for 30 days.
	Again, Washington, D.C. was always meant to be a federal district.
	It was never meant to be an independent municipality.
	So I think that the correct move here is just to literally just dissolve the local government in D.C. and just actually have it taken over by an office of Congress.
	That is actually how it's supposed to be according to the Constitution, and that is how it should be.
	Meanwhile, Judge orders the Trump administration to restore part of UCLA's suspended funding.
	U.S. District Judge Rita Lynn ordered the Trump administration on Tuesday to restore part of the $580.4 million in frozen federal grants for UCLA science research.
	The freeze followed allegations that UCLA discriminated in admissions and failed to prevent anti-Semitism amid large protests last year.
	Yeah, I sort of mentioned this yesterday with Rex, and maybe we need to get into it a little bit more because this is something that I've referenced a lot, but I still don't think people know this story very well.
	That at UCLA Berkeley, there was a foreign-sponsored military attack on the Palestinians there.
	And I'm not kidding.
	It was an Israeli guy who brought over IDF soldiers to physically assault and attack the Palestinian protesters.
	That happened on UCLA campus, and absolutely no punishment was ever given to the people that started and carried out the vicious attack against peaceful protesters.
	So it's pretty far beyond just like, oh, they're anti-Semitic.
	And it's the exact opposite.
	You have peaceful Palestinian protesters breaking no laws, expressing their First Amendment, and then you have them set upon by military-trained foreigners working in a group, coordinated, sponsored, brought in from out of the city or out of state to carry out this vicious attack on peaceful protesters.
	And then the peaceful protesters get punished for it.
	Yeah, it's almost like they're the Gazans in this situation.
	Gee, it's almost like the same thing over and over.
	And of course, to me, the most frustrating part is that we take the blame for this.
	I don't know how many times I've heard since Trump got into office and started making all these cuts about the way these damn Republicans are putting everybody at risk by, you know, cutting scientific research.
	I've got friends and family where it's like, we have a friend who's a nurse and is going to school.
	I guess she's a doctor.
	I don't know.
	She's a smart lady.
	She's going to some higher level university and doing medical research into cancer or something, something important.
	And she just got her funding cut and her grants cut.
	And she wasn't working on transgenderism, right?
	She wasn't working on testing how much estrogen can be put in a Twinkie before it's detectable by taste.
	Like these weren't, these are just like normal, good things we should probably be doing as the world's foremost scientific powerhouse and industrial creative center.
	And so it's not even that these research grants are too big.
	It's not that there's a problem with the grants themselves.
	They're purely being used as leverage to get the Israelis what they want.
	So we're causing American universities and American students and American scientists to suffer hugely as Israeli extortion.
	Not because we don't actually want the things to be done, just because it's a pain point that the federal government can twist its knife into to get concessions to make it even less friendly to Palestinians who are already being beaten half to death by IDF soldiers on the campus of UCLA.
	And then all of the scientists and all of the people that see this happening turn around and go, damn those Trump supporters, those conservatives and those Republicans.
	They're just anti-science and trying to shut down research because they're just anti-intellectual.
	And it's like, we have nothing to do with this.
	We don't want this.
	We have nothing to do.
	Now, if you were talking about using that same method, that same pressure to get them to stop teaching courses about how white people are evil or stop the egregious manipulation of the incoming class demographics, maybe you have an argument.
	But we're not benefiting from This.
	This isn't us.
	We don't want this.
	We never asked for this.
	It doesn't benefit us.
	It's not for us.
	It's entirely for Israel, but they do it through Trump, so we get the blame.
	So conservatives and Trump supporters get the blame.
	And then, stupidest of all, is that Trump supporters get tricked into taking credit for this.
	So stupid.
	So you've got UCLA letting Palestinians or pro-Palestinian protesters protest on their campus.
	Israel comes in, beats them half to death, takes away all their money, forces concessions, forces them to create offices of anti-Semitism so you can have a Jewish Inquisition on the campus.
	And then Trump supporters are out there going, well, that's what you get for messing with America.
	That's what you get for messing with Trump.
	You idiots.
unidentified		You're being used as absolute puppets to your own destruction.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		All right, welcome back, folks.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		This is the American Journal.
unidentified		I'm hosting Smith.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		God, I'm a little bit disorganized today.
unidentified		That's only because my whole family's sick.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Not to play a pity party here.
		I think it may have been, I think we may have come down with something.
		Sort of a chain of events where my son swallowed a nickel or a penny or something.
		So we spent Saturday evening or Friday night/slash Saturday morning in the hospital getting x-rays.
		And I think we may have caught something there.
		My whole family is hugely sick.
		And so I'm working on about six hours of sleep over the last two nights combined trying to take care of them.
		And I'm teetering on the edge, but you should see them.
		It doesn't look good.
		And I credit my not being sick to the supplements that I take.
		I take a heck of a lot of vitamins and I just have the, I'm so close to, you know, that feeling when you're like, man, I'm real close to being sick right now.
		If I didn't take that nap yesterday, I'd be dead.
		Yeah, that was, that was 3 a.m. on Friday or Saturday morning.
		He's fine.
		He's fine, everyone, but the family is sick.
		And I credit the supplements that I take to keeping me just on this side of healthy.
		However, that being said, my brain is still stuck in first gear.
		That's how it feels.
		You know how it feels if you ever drive a manual and you get stuck in first or second gear.
		You're like, I know I should be able to go faster, but I just can't.
		I just can't.
		So I'm going to take your call today in the second hour.
		We have a lot of videos to play.
		I'm telling you, I was real close to throwing in the towel this morning.
		We're going to power through because I have a duty to fulfill.
		We're going to continue to talk about the day's news.
		And there's also just, it's just too, I mean, it's just too much news.
		It's also freaking insane.
		We'll continue with the top stories here.
		In fact, grab some more videos and show you what's going on around the world.
		I know Alex covered this quite a bit.
		British cops wore jogging outfits to elicit cat calls and then arrested some men who hit on them, according to a report.
		From cat calls to the doghouse, female cops in England went undercover as joggers, wearing tight-fitting clothes in a bid to elicit cat calls and then arrested some of the men who hit on them, according to a report.
		The Surrey Police Department created a trial task force, which lasted about a month and led to 18 arrests, like offenses for sexual assault, harassment, and theft, the Telegraph reported.
		You know, there's nothing really I can say that can elucidate this more than Alex got into it.
		It's very simple.
		They are literally criminalizing basic normal human behavior while simultaneously ignoring the vicious, repugnant crisis of rape and crime that they themselves are facilitating with their immigration program.
		The dichotomy of this, the bizarre nature of this, I mean, if you were trying to decrease the birth rates, is this not exactly what you were doing?
		If you were trying to make a people go extinct, is this not how you would treat them?
		It's already at crisis level the fact that people are just lonely.
		Like America, the UK, the numbers are staggering and horrifying.
		I don't even know what the statistics are these days, but basically, if you, you know, I mean, there's just no, there's no romance, there's no dating scene, there's no mingling, there's no societal pressure to get married and have kids.
		And so it's like, who even cat calls anymore?
		It's like, if you're cat calling women on the street, you should be given a medal.
		You should be given a medal and a trophy for resisting the psychological push to castrate you, to leave you as a gilded, a whimpering puddle begging for permission for women to look at you.
		No, you should be honking at them.
		You should be whistling at them.
		If you're close enough, you should be giving a little smack on the backside.
		All right.
		That's humanity, folks.
		That's how human beings interact with each other.
		If you think women don't like being cat-called, you're an idiot.
		Women love being cat-called.
		Try it sometime.
		Maybe they like being catcalled by some people more than others.
		All I know is back in the day, it was very fun driving around with your bros, honking at a group, honking at a group of girls walking down the sidewalk.
		You get nothing but beaming smiles back.
		They love it, folks.
		They love it.
		You know, who doesn't love it?
		The globalists, the people who want to keep you separate, people who want you to be kept in a pod eating bugs and watching AI-created VR pornography as the world slips from your fingers.
		Yeah, here's a guy who's never going to, he'll never be, never make the mistake.
		He'll never commit the crime of meeting a real woman in life.
		It's just crazy.
	It really is.
	I'm from all of the pressure already, the social pressure, the Me Too movement, the corporate pressure, the life-ending consequences of accidentally saying the wrong thing to the wrong woman and her writing an article accusing you of rape.
	I mean, it's just already it's such an impossible dating scene.
	And then now the UK government is putting pretty women on the street and then arresting people who approach them.
	And then they're advertising it, right?
	They're making news reports about this and they're telling everybody, yeah, if you see a pretty girl running down the street, don't you dare even look at her.
	She might be an undercover cop.
	This is a sting operation.
	That's crazy.
	That is crazy.
	Stop people cat-calling and harassing.
	I mean, the good news is that this program will be shut down immediately as soon as 100% of the cat callers are Muslims.
	As soon as one of these officers takes one of these jogs through the wrong neighborhood and ends up chained to a radiator underneath a kebab shop, yeah, they're going to shutter this whole operation real fast.
	Again, just illustrating the absurdity of arresting people for cat-calling women when the government sponsors a and participates in, I remind you, of all the reports of, you know, not only the orphanage providing the girls, but the police actually raping the girls themselves.
	The NHS hospitals helping to cover up the injuries done to the girls.
	So the government sponsored rape crisis.
	It's not going to be affected by arresting construction workers for trying to squeeze just a modicum of joy out of their miserable lives by whistling at a pretty girl.
	And of course, showing the competence of the girls.
	I mean, we've all read the headlines where it's the same people being like, men need to stop cat-calling women.
	We are not your, we are not objects for your sexual pleasure.
	And then the same woman will write an article going, men don't catcall me anymore, and it makes me feel bad.
	Why is this happening?
	Why is this happening?
	You know, and Alex did a video about this.
	We played in one of the first five-minute segments of yesterday's show because you saw the video of the 12-year-old girl with like nine adult police officers grabbing her and pulling her out of a McDonald's because she's broken curfew to try to eat at a restaurant as an English woman.
	How dare she?
	And that video's gone viral.
	Here's another video.
	Go to clip number 11 here.
	And, you know, a lot of the stuff that we talk about is parody level or it's beyond parody.
	But I'll tell you a little story here from back in the day, probably 10 years ago.
	I was working as a PA on a set.
	It was a concert, and there was a band from England, and they were all talking about just how ridiculous England is.
	And they're talking about skateboarding in England and how difficult it would be, or like how they shut it down.
	And it's such a stupid story.
	This is what this story makes me think of.
	And, you know, basically, I don't know if you've ever been in a situation where you like really go out of your way to make a joke that if it goes well, it'll be great.
	But if it goes badly, you're going to look like an idiot.
	You know, those situations.
	It's a big risk that you take.
	Well, I was a young man, and I was hanging out with this very cool band.
	And for some reason, all of the flight attendants on the plane that flew over with them were all there too.
	Anyway, they were all joking about or talking about skateboarding.
	And one of them said something about skateboarding in London.
	And I piped up something.
	He's like, he did an Ollie.
	I'm like, oh, that's illegal.
	Where's your Ollie lesson?
	Where's your Ollie license?
	And it was one of these things where I did an accent.
	I was being real loud.
	Could have gone real bad.
	But it went over well because the satire was accurate.
	Because the people from London were like, damn, that is accurate.
	Like, literally, you will have a police officer, oh, Ollie.
	You try to Ollie and you try to do a trick in England.
	All four wheels have to be on the ground 90% of the time.
	It's just absurd.
	But that's stuck in my mind.
	It's another one of these cliches where it's like the one time you made the whole class laugh and it just like fills you with warmth every time you think about it for the next 30 years.
	It was one of those moments for me.
	I made this very obnoxious joke, but it went over very well.
	And it landed because it's true, because the parody is true.
	And because for the last 10 years, this has been the parody of the UK is that like you have to have a license to skateboard and you can skateboard with your skateboarding license, but if you want to Ollie, you got to have an Ollie license.
	You got to apply for that and pay the Ollie fine.
	And then you can Ollie.
	But if you do a kickflip, that's going to be another, you know, it's just, it's also bureaucratic and absurd.
	And it, to me, was a joke, was an example of exaggeration, hyperbole for the purpose of comedy.
	And yet, here we are today in the year of our Lord 2025.
	And we have clip number six, man given six points on his driver license despite not having a driving license.
	Why?
	Because he was skateboarding without permission.
	Let's watch.
unidentified		I'm fine for no insurance and the six penalty points on the UK driving license that you don't have.
		And that would obviously, like, if you applied for a UK driving license, you would start with six points on that driving license.
		Okay?
		So, that's that part out the way.
		So, so if I apply for a UK driver license, this is going to affect everyone and a half points even before.
		If you apply for it in the next three to four years, then you'll still give me a license.
		Yeah, six in the first two years is an automatic bad.
		For a skateboard officer, I can't believe it.
		Okay, so here's something we're all going to do.
		Let's go to the next.
		Let's get on to the next bit, and then we can get you on your way.
		You get used to a meeting.
		Okay, soon as you've told you your vehicle's being seized today because it's on the road, it's being used without insurance.
		It's going to be seized.
		Okay.
		We'll go to the car pound.
		The only way you can get the car pound out of the car pound is if you turn up with a valid policy of motor insurance, which allows the vehicle to be used on the road.
		Okay.
		Other than that, you cannot pick up the vehicle.
		The problem you're going to find is that a motor insurance company can't provide you with insurance to carry out to use something on the road that's illegal.
		These were illegal to be used on the road, so therefore, no insurance company is going to cover you.
		So I'm just going to lose my voice.
		In effect, yes, but I can't actually say you're losing your board because you may miraculously be able to find a company that insures you, but in effect, yes.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so we just witnessed a man being fined, getting six points on his non-existent driver's license and having his skateboard confiscated for the crime of riding on a skateboard without insurance.
matt infowars ▲ ● ▼		I guess judge, jury, and executioner, right?
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Well, the police says we're going to impound your board.
		You're not going to be able to get it unless you provide insurance, but nobody, no insurance company provides insurance for skateboards.
		So, how do you ride a skateboard?
		Why do you have insurance to ride a skateboard if no insurance company sells?
		So, skateboarding is illegal in the UK.
		Skateboarding is illegal in the UK because you're required to have insurance, but nobody sells insurance for skateboards.
		Therefore, nobody on a skateboard has insurance for it.
		It's illegal to skateboard in the UK.
		A million British girls raped by Muslims.
		Skateboarding is illegal.
		Cat calling is illegal.
		Praying outside of an abortion clinic silently in your head is illegal.
		Referencing the nationality of the rape gang perpetuators is illegal.
		And it goes on and on and on.
		And, you know, luckily, because the UK is being so egregious and insane these days, America is actually like coming out and saying, yeah, you know, human rights as a concept is under attack in the UK, and this is unacceptable.
		No, I think with absolutely no sarcasm or like humor in this, I genuinely think we should be delivering weapons to Ukraine patriots, the natives in the UK, and Ireland.
		There's so much of a better argument for arming the UK citizens than the Ukraine citizens, right?
		At least the Ukraine citizens have all this backing behind them.
		The UK citizens are just under attack from every possible direction.
		I genuinely think we should be bringing democracy.
		I think they need to be delivered a little bit of the good old-fashioned world police, America-style democracy to the UK.
		Again, I'm actually not being facetious there.
		I genuinely think we should be doing that.
		So I'm going to keep going on some of what's going on in the UK, but tell me again what this clip we're about to go to is, Matt.
		What am I looking at here?
		We're talking about cat calling in the UK, but this is not in the UK, is it?
matt infowars ▲ ● ▼		Definitely not.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		So, what are we looking at here?
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Should we introduce or should we just play?
matt infowars ▲ ● ▼		An old school report: cat calling's been an issue for years.
matt infowars ▲ ● ▼		And I think that if we play clip 12, we'll come in on the other side.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so this is a video from like 10 years ago, you said.
		An American news report from about 10 years ago about the topic of cat calling.
		Inside edition on cat calling from about 10 years ago.
		It's got a clip number 12 now.
unidentified		When Ashley Blankenship gets ready for her day, she mentally prepares for what often happens when she heads to work.
unidentified		She has to deal with guys like this.
matt infowars ▲ ● ▼		Wild and career guys.
unidentified		Nah, I'm just kidding.
		How are you doing, kid?
		You look beautiful.
		It always makes me feel good.
		Never am I like, oh, wow, that makes me feel good.
		I love that.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Liar.
unidentified		Never.
		Sean Lennon makes no apologies for his behavior.
		Here we go.
		He can't seem to stop.
		This is.
		Where have you been all my life?
		We caught him doing it all around Manhattan.
		Yeah.
		Oh, yeah.
		He insisted to our Lisa Guerrero that he's harmless and that women don't mind.
		If you had a daughter, how would you like it if somebody cat called out to her on the street?
		If I saw them say something out of line, then sure I'd react with a reaction that a father would.
		But if you know.
		What if they just said, oh yeah!
		I guess I would feel a little offended or, you know, get upset at that.
		Many women we spoke to say they feel offended.
		It's mild harassment.
		So today we're gonna turn the tables on the cat callers.
@gubbahomestead ▲ ● ▼		Ashley won't be hitting the streets alone.
unidentified		I'll be close by, ready to have a little chat with the cat callers.
		It doesn't take long for Ashley to get attention.
		As you might expect, guys give her the once-over as she walks by.
		Pretty soon, the cat calling starts.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Sorry, they're huge.
unidentified		That's what happens when she walks past these construction workers.
unidentified		And just around the corner, more cat calls.
@gubbahomestead ▲ ● ▼		Do you think women appreciate getting complimented like that on the street?
unidentified		Certain women do.
		They love attention.
		This guy thinks the cat call was our model's fault.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		The lady was letting out.
		So you just said that a lady was out there on a sting operation.
		She absolutely asked you.
unidentified		This guy did to tell us he was upset that we were recording the cat calls.
		You got a woman walking around looking to get looking to get talked to get somebody to say something.
		Look what you did.
		Look what you did.
		Let me ask you a question.
		Ask you a question.
@gubbahomestead ▲ ● ▼		If that was your daughter, how would you feel about men yelling at her?
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Walk around.
donald j trump ▲ ● ▼		My daughter wouldn't walk around willing to get yelled at.
donald j trump ▲ ● ▼		My daughter walk around conservatively dressed.
unidentified		All day, the unwanted comments kept coming.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		I don't want to be looking like a woman.
unidentified		He wasn't happy when the cameras were turned on him.
		Did he just say a little something to the blonde lady that walked by?
		No.
		I love you, Peter.
		Would it be rude to say something on the street to a young lady, sir?
		No.
		And if some of you guys watching this think cat calling is a great way to meet women, forget about it.
		Have you ever met a guy and gone out with a guy that cat called out to you on the street?
		100% OA.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		you you Yes, ladies and gentlemen, that is our very own clown car, folks.
		That's Sean Lynn in aka clown car.
		That is him, isn't it?
		Clown car, you got to call in.
		We got to, we, clown car, if you can hear me, I'm putting up the clown signal.
		The clown signal is going up.
		It's hitting the clouds.
		Hong Kong.
		We're sitting out the honk.
		Give us a call, clown car.
		Tell us your philosophical interpretation of cat calling and the backlash to it.
		Again, it can go too far.
matt infowars ▲ ● ▼		I wonder what would happen to like if they asked the men, like, oh, they went on the other side of it.
		It's like, have you ever gone out with a woman that you've catcalled?
		They're like, no.
		You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
		There you go.
		Like, the point of cat calling isn't to go out with the woman, it's to make her feel good.
		It's to make her feel good about herself.
		Don't you cheer at basketball games when the ball goes in the hoop?
		Feels good.
		You cheer.
		I mean, they're literally criminalizing human behavior.
		They're criminalizing human interaction.
		Is it fun to be cat-called?
		I don't know.
		I've never been cat-called.
		I can't imagine it's that unpleasant.
		But fine.
		I mean, if you really are, you know, that upset about men looking at you.
		I just, I can't even take any of it seriously.
		It's all so stupid.
		I guess we have to talk about it, though.
		Like, I have to talk about it because they're actually arresting people for cat-calling attractive women in the UK out for a jog, specifically to be cat-called.
		Wonderful.
		Absolutely wonderful.
		I think I have some more about the UK that I want to get into.
		But at the end of the day, it really is all about just an absurd imposition of these completely nonsensical and erratic rules that mean nothing.
		Again, completely off the mark, completely arbitrary, completely out of left field in terms of what they take seriously and what they treat as something that can be covered up and ignored.
		It's just completely absurd.
		And everybody's asking this, right?
		Jeffrey Miller at Primal Poly.
		Why exactly are the British elites trying to ruin British civilization by encouraging mass immigration of people who despise British people and British values?
		I'm not asking who, I'm asking why.
		What is the goal?
		What is the end game?
		The vision of Britain a century from now, what is it?
		And it's like the thing you really have to understand, and it makes everything sort of make more sense.
		And this is like you have to go to the end of the line and go, I'm just going to accept this as reality.
		So everything on the front side of this is not a surprise to me.
		In other words, if you're operating under the delusion that the people in power in America or the UK or anywhere in Europe, that they actually have the best interest of their citizens in mind and are working for their benefit or towards some sort of positive end for them, it must be just baffling what's going on.
		It must be baffling.
		It's not baffling to me.
		I don't see it as that.
		I don't see these problems as failures.
		I see them as attacks because that's what they are.
		When you understand that the elite of Europe and America despise Europeans and Americans, it's not confusing why they're acting like enemies.
		They're enemies.
		Why they're acting like conquerors of a subject people because they've conquered a subject people.
		And when you realize that's the case, everything else makes perfect sense.
		What's the future vision of the UK 100 years from now?
		It is a deracialized, bastardized, ethnic soup where nobody has any identity, nobody has any history, nobody has any collective will to do anything ever, where the people are in constant internacing fights between religious affiliations.
		So they never get together to attack those in power.
		If you want to know what the UK 100 years from now looks like, go to Bangladesh or a city in India.
		And that's the way that it's going.
		Only you'll have some remnant admixture of the European gene slowly but surely being eradicated from the population because they hate you and are committing genocide against you.
		Welcome back, folks.
unidentified		Hey, I got great news for you, folks.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		We have more evidence of the crimes of the deep state.
		I know what you were thinking.
		You're thinking, we have the idea that all of these people are doing bad things, but if only we had some evidence, if only we had, I don't know, text messages or, you know, the evidence of where the dossier came from that first inspired the FISA core warrants.
		If only we had all of that evidence and a little bit more, maybe we need a little bit more evidence.
		Maybe 10 years of just an overwhelming amount of evidence, it's not enough.
		So the good news is we have more evidence, folks.
		More evidence of more crimes committed by the same people about the same topics over and over again.
		We've got more evidence, folks.
		Aren't you so excited?
		Let's go to clip number six.
		This is Solomon describing the bombshell revelation about, did you know James Comey was leaking information to the press?
unidentified		What?
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Oh my goodness.
		This is the first time hearing about this.
		Let's watch.
sean hannity ▲ ● ▼		It is a worthwhile read.
		I'll let you sum it up.
		And then I want your conclusion on what you're finding here because to me, it's very damning.
john solomon ▲ ● ▼		Well, what you find out is that James Comey decided not to work through the FBI press office when he wanted to change the narrative in Washington, burnish his reputation against attacks from Democrats and try to sully Donald Trump's reputation.
		If you remember, Democrats were mad that James Comey let out of the bag just before the election that there might be some new evidence in the Hillary Clinton email scandal.
		Hillary blamed Comey for throwing the election.
		She blamed the Russians for throwing elections.
		She blamed everybody but herself for throwing the election for her.
		But Comey was trying to rehabilitate that.
		And so he had an intermediary, a Columbia law professor by the name of Daniel Richmond, who the FBI confirmed and interviewed.
		And Richmond said, yes, I used my relationship with a New York Times reporter named Michael Schmidt.
		He's one of the authors of the Pulitzer Prize winning package that President Trump is now suing over.
		And my goal was to improve negative stories about James Comey and to set a narrative, i.e., set the Russia collusion narrative.
		This guy worked around the official channels of the FBI press office.
		And at one point, the FBI noted: you met with James Comey.
		He gave you access to classified information.
		A short while later, you had a conversation with that New York Times reporter, and he ends up reporting something that appears to be classified.
		Did you do it?
		And he gives, I think, perhaps the most famous denial people will remember since Bill Clinton says it depends what the meaning of the word is is when he tried to obfuscate whether he had an affair with Monica Lewinsky.
		He says, I can say I don't think I confirmed the information.
		I can say with a discount that I didn't give him the classified information.
		With a discount means you got to give me some room.
		It's an extraordinary moment.
		The FBI clearly had strong suspicions that this was a potential backdoor for information, maybe classified information to get out to the media with James Comey's fingerprints on it.
		And they didn't go much further.
		They didn't put Comey before the grand jury, that we can tell.
		They didn't appear to put this gentleman, Daniel Richmond, before the grand jury.
		And like Adam Schiff, as we told you last night, here they have an eyewitness whistleblower said, I was in the room when he authorized leaks of intel.
		These end up being a dead end again.
		And it's another reminder of a dual system of justice that the Justice Department had the last six years.
		These are documents that were never given to Jim Jordan.
		Jim Jordan confirmed that to me today.
		And we're just learning eight years later because of what Cash Patel turned over that the FBI had all the evidence of how the false narrative of Russia collusion was spread across this country to the detriment of voters, to the detriment of President Trump's first campaign, and they did nothing about it.
sean hannity ▲ ● ▼		It's a credit to the FBI.
		It's a credit to Cash Patel.
		It's a credit to the people that are involved in sharing this information out with the public.
		Do you see legal jeopardy here?
john solomon ▲ ● ▼		I think if Pam Bondi goes the grand jury route, that these are people that are going to be hauled before the grand jury.
		I want to remind people: most classified information statutes have a five-year statute of limitations, but there is a provision that extends it to 10 years if it's willing and knowing.
		And there is some pretty clear evidence of a strong apparatus put in place to make these leaks occur, according to the FBI documents.
		I think a grand jury could go back and try to compel testimony and find out if it rises the level of criminality.
		Tomorrow, though, I think we're going to take people on a new destination, which is how often did the FBI get blocked in trying to investigate Hillary Clinton corruption at the Clinton Foundation?
		You're going to be shocked by the answer.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		So, again, I still didn't even get there.
		Like, the FBI knew.
		No, the FBI was doing it.
		What do you mean the FBI knew?
		They did it.
		They were the ones doing it.
		All right, welcome back, folks.
		We again just have so much to talk about, so many videos to get into.
		But I want to talk a little bit more about what's going on in the UK.
		Because it's, you know, it's a symbol.
		It's something to look for as what the future of America will be if we don't get a handle on things.
		That is, we don't wrest control back from the elite that are doing all of this on purpose.
		Should be, would actually be extremely easy to do.
		And we see the way that Trump is seeming to try to get a handle, at least on the crime situation.
		We'll return, of course, to the.
		I mean, it's like this stuff.
		You know, I should, I guess I should get into this.
		Maybe people don't know about it.
		Maybe they haven't heard about this gateway pundit, declassified memos reveal Comey's secret media mole leaked classified information to the New York Times to push for special counsel to investigate Trump in Russia hoax and you got John Solomon going the FBI knew about this you mean the FBI was the one doing this what are we what are we talking about here it's like saying the unabomber knew about
		the packages being sent well he was the one sending them the FBI was the one doing the I mean I don't get how it's being uh phrased and again it's being it's this is being treated like it's news we've known this forever so you know hopefully, something comes of this.
		Like, I really have a hard time continuing to report on more evidence for the same crimes that we've been reporting on for literally 10 years at this point.
		The same people that we know have been involved since the beginning.
		I mean, is it news that Comey was leaking?
		This is an established fact from the last time he was placed under oath and questioned by Congress, which was, I think, during the Trump administration, the first Trump administration.
		Where he's like, well, I didn't leak anything.
		I simply provided information to a friend of mine who happened to be a journalist.
unidentified		It's like.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		So, what this actually says, you know, here's the story from Mario Noffal on X. Declassified, Comey ordered FBI to help write New York Times hit piece to help New York Times write hit piece.
		The newly declassified FBI documents reveal investigators discovered the FBI Office of Public Affairs, quote, was told to assist the New York Times with the April 2017 article.
		The document states FBI employees, including Comey, either directed or otherwise authorized U.S. official assistance to the New York Times.
		The FBI did not coordinate or brief DOJ leadership or DOJ OPA about this assistance.
		As part of the FBI's assistance, Peter Strzzok and Leader Page, Lisa Page, were interviewed by the New York Times in the presence of DOJ OPA officials, even though A.G. Lynch had left the department and DOJ regulations called for DOJ OPA coordination in cases of media contact with the New York Times.
		The document confirms what many suspect about FBI media coordination during the Trump-Russia investigation era.
		So you have the actual document here.
		Investigators learned that the FBI Office of Public Affairs, OPA, was told to assist the New York Times with the April 2017 article.
		According to interviews with FBI employees, Comey either directed or otherwise authorized FBI's official assistance to the New York Times.
		FBI OPA did not coordinate or brief DOJ leadership or DOJ OPA about this.
		As part of the FBI's assistance, FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page were interviewed by the New York Times concerning this article.
		And of course, they were allowed to plant information in this.
		So, I don't know.
		I mean, yes, wonderful.
		It's wonderful to see the same crime having more evidence put forward.
		Are you telling me Lisa Page and Peter Strzok were acting outside of the confines of their official duties?
		What?
		I can't believe it.
		Oh my gosh, you're telling me Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, who were caught texting each other in black and white, basically a full confession.
		It's our insurance policy.
		We're going to stop Trump from getting elected through this Russia investigation.
		I mean, when were those text messages released?
		1942?
		Like, we've had them forever.
		I'm pretty sure we've had these text messages since 2017 or so, right?
		Something like that?
matt infowars ▲ ● ▼		Well, I think that the Justice Department and the FBI and everybody who would prosecute it probably are just waiting for the Statue of Limitations to run out.
matt infowars ▲ ● ▼		That's probably it.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		That makes sense.
		So they shouldn't be allowed to do that, right?
		I mean, that's not what the Statute of Limitations is for.
		That's not what it's about.
		That should not be an option for the Justice Department.
		So the Justice Department commits crimes and then refuses to prosecute those crimes that they committed.
		Yeah, obviously.
		So I don't know.
		Maybe we need something above the DOJ.
		I don't know, some sort of Praetorian guard, some sort of imperial court that can rain judgment down upon the DOJ.
		All right, should we get into the UK or I mean, I just have so many, so many dang headlines and videos.
		Let's go to clip 15 because this is Matt Baker.
		He's talking about San Diego, but it's just a small slice of life local interest story that, of course, is simply indicative of the wider trend of civilizational collapse because we're being ruled by incompetent morons.
		In fact, we'll go to this clip of Matt Baker, then I'm going to get another clip of the DC police chief literally not knowing what the phrase chain of command means.
		Somebody posted that with a quote.
		I don't know if it was Aristotle or Plato or something.
		But it's, you know, basically the worst curse you can be under is to be governed by people stupider than you.
		And we're being governed mostly by people with average or below average intelligence that are also just hostile foreigners, admittedly, by their own words.
		But it's hard to tell.
		It's hard to tell sometimes what is malice and what is stupidity.
		At a certain point, it doesn't really matter.
		Right?
		Some I'm going through with my kids right now.
		Sometimes, you know, my son hurts my daughter by throwing something at her head on purpose.
		It's like, that's bad.
		Sometimes he's just not paying attention and spinning around and throwing toys at random, and a toy hits his sister in the head.
		And I'm trying to explain to him, it doesn't matter if you, and he's like, but I didn't mean to.
		It's like, it doesn't matter.
		You hit her in the head with the thing.
		So you got to go apologize.
		Okay.
		So, you know, it doesn't matter if it's on purpose and malice or incompetence and an accident.
		The outcome is exactly the same.
		So it should be treated exactly the same.
		And whatever punishment or reward should be exactly the same.
		So here we have Matt Baker reporting on San Diego local government just insane amounts of waste, insane amounts of manipulation and deception committed against their own people, robbing their own people blind for no discernible reason.
		You tell me, stupidity or malice.
		Personally, I don't care.
		Let's go to Matt Baker.
matt baker ▲ ● ▼		Matt Baker, Kearney Mesa, Montgomery Field at the trash can apocalypse.
		Now, whether you know it or not, San Diego, we had free trash pickup for over a hundred years.
		It was something that the city prided itself on.
		But now, in a previous year, they had put a deceptive measure, tricking the public into paying for the trash now.
		But not only are they going to do that, they're going to trash all of these perfectly good trash cans and melt them down, supposedly, and recycle them in an effort to save money and line their pockets.
		And not only are they going to be destroying the old trash cans, they're going to be making the individual homeowners purchase brand new trash cans on a three-tiered system.
		So they're going to have a tiny trash can, a medium trash can, and a huge trash can, which is actually the same trash can you're already getting.
		But don't worry, they're also going to add a nice little RFID chip to each trash can just so they can keep track of each trash can.
		Isn't that nice?
		Just to put it in perspective, there's going to be 400,000 of these motherfuckers that the city is going to be trashing and burning and melting down so that they can save the environment and line their pockets with more money for their bullshit projects.
		Just so you know, it's really important to get this out because we actually did have a small reprieve and there was a lawsuit filed for an injunction to stop the payments going out for these new trash cans.
		However, even if we do succeed, we'll still have to pay $165 million for the total of 400,000 trash cans, which are already contracted to be built at a total of how much was it, Luke?
unidentified		$162.50.
matt baker ▲ ● ▼		$162.50 each trash can.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Again, just absolutely insane.
		Homeowner challenging San Diego trash drop fee request for quick trial seek injunction.
		Instead, the planners had previously asked for an expedited September trial.
		The stipulation presented Tuesday replaces that request.
		Again, I mean, are they just stupid?
		Are they just incompetent?
		How do you waste $165 million on trash cans and change the rules and take something that was provided for free and then start charging for it and then not even provide it in the first place?
		It's just what are we doing?
		What are we doing here, folks?
		We're just watching America slip through our fingers out of the sheer incompetence.
		And again, to me, it always just goes back to the incompetence of the voters themselves.
		That, like, how do you keep voting for these people?
		How do you, why do you keep these people in charge?
		Why do you keep voting for these people, man?
		It is not good.
		It's really, really not good.
unidentified		Thank you.
unidentified		Thank you.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		People like this.
		Clip number 14 here.
		This is Cincinnati, and this goes back to the attack from, what was it, last week, two weeks ago?
		You know, the Jazz Festival.
		There was a Cincinnati Jazz Festival.
		There were people on the streets, and a group of black guys teamed up and started beating the crap out of white guys and then slammed the white woman's head into the pavement.
		And then nobody called the cops.
		People basically mostly just filmed it.
		And only because of the viral video that lit a fire under some of the Cincinnati officials to actually arrest these people.
		Because if you're a city, you're going to want to have people going out and spending money or your city's going to collapse.
		And if people instead are beaten half to death for trying to walk around in their own neighborhood, then you're going to collapse as a city.
		So like literally out of survival, they were just like forced to do something to arrest these guys.
		And yet at the same time, they came out blaming the victims, blaming racism, saying actually they said the N-word as if that's an excuse at all.
		And now they've gone completely off the deep end.
		And a lot of this stuff broke yesterday evening.
		It was just like a litany of things.
		It was like one thing after another.
		And this one might have been the most egregious.
		But I'll show you some other stories that sort of correlate with this and correspond with this.
		Let's go to clip number 14 here.
		These are black community leaders talking about this vicious and unprovoked attack against white people because they're white by a bunch of black people who almost killed them.
		The sixth one was just arrested yesterday, I believe.
		But here's what the black leadership in Cincinnati thinks is the real issue here.
		Let's watch.
unidentified		Six individuals were charged with aggravated assault, which is a felony.
		The white guy incited or urged six other people to commit a felony.
		The method by which this situation has been handled raises serious questions as to whether there's bias involved in the investigation.
		It also brings into question the possibility of a lack of integrity and whether there's something else to hide.
		Thank you.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		I mean, we want to talk about victim blaming.
		I mean, they literally just said that the victim of the beating is at fault because he incited six felonies.
		So he should be charged for being beaten up because he incited six felonies.
		So he said words.
		He was then attacked for those words.
		And they're saying he should be charged for the words that he said because apparently black people are not human beings With consciousness who can decide what to do.
		They don't have free will.
		They're just, they're like animals, right?
		And so if they hear a word or if you disrespect them or if you step on their shoe, it's not that they have a choice to make where they can determine, is this something worth going to jail for?
		Is this really worth, you know, killing a person over?
		Or are these words, and I'm a human being and I can handle it and sticks and stones may break my bones, but words may never hurt me.
		I can choose whether or not to commit violence or not to commit violence.
		They don't have that option, according to the black leadership in Cincinnati.
		I'm not the one saying this.
		I think it's the black people that should be arrested and charged for beating a man up.
		The only possible reason that wouldn't be the case is if those people are literally incapable of controlling themselves, like incapable, like, yeah.
		Are they not able to control that?
		Now, I can only imagine that the claim is that the guy said the N-word.
		Because apparently that's all it takes.
		Because apparently that word overrides the consciousness of black people and they just descend into a feral state and they can't be held accountable for that.
unidentified		I don't know.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		I don't, I mean, obviously that's not the argument she's making, but it is the conclusion you'd have to come to.
		That's the conclusion you would have to come to.
		This guy incited violence against him.
		And I think the way that that would make sense is if like, you know, it's some YouTube prank channel where they really are just deliberately going out to try to get people to attack them.
		And it's like, okay, you wanted to be attacked.
		You're filming it.
		You know, you can't be doing that.
		If somebody says something that somebody else doesn't like, and that second person beats up the first person for saying the thing, you cannot then say the person saying stuff is at fault because he incited the other person.
		Because the other person is a human being that's an adult that is responsible for their own actions, even if they hear words they don't like.
		Because they're not babies.
		They're black people.
		They're not children.
		Yeah, they begged for that beatdown.
		Dim Cincinnati city council woman claims white couple beaten by black mob deserved it.
		They deserved it.
		They were asking for it for being white and not showing the proper deference to their black bettors.
		So they were lynched in the street.
		I mean, sure, you know, Jaquan sucker punched the guy in the back of the head and slammed his head into the concrete and stood up and started stomping on his face while another person came up and drove her heel into his stomach.
		And sure, you know, the guy had to spend a while in the hospital.
		We don't even have, you know, confirmation of anything he may have said or not said.
		All we know is the outcome of the brutal and vicious assault.
		But are you really going to charge Jaquan with assault just because he brutally assaulted somebody?
		He's a black person and he heard a word he doesn't like.
		So really, it's the person who said the word.
unidentified		It's their fault.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that's the argument they're, unless I'm crazy.
		Is that not the argument they're making?
		They're blaming the victims for inciting an assault against them.
		So what should they have done is the question.
		How did this whole conflict get started?
		Was there a back and forth of words exchanged?
		Were the black people just totally silent, totally peaceful?
		This white guy comes up and is just like, what's up?
		In words?
		And they're all just like, camp mode activated.
		And they all just like go insane.
		And then they wake up from a fog, like, where am I?
		Why am I covered in blood?
		What happened?
		I was just sitting peacefully.
		I was enjoying an ice cream sandwich on the park bench when everything blacked out and I woke up and there's a guy on the ground.
		What's happening here?
		That's how they want you to think this went down.
		It's just egregious.
		It's insane.
		And they're actually treating black people like they can't control themselves, don't have free will, and can't choose whether or not to tack somebody.
		They have no choice.
		They're forced to do it by the words the guy spoke.
		Maybe the guy's a magician.
		Have we considered it?
		Maybe he's a hypnotist.
		You know, we don't know.
		We don't know how the conflict started.
		Maybe he did mind control the black people to attack himself.
		It's possible, okay?
		It have to be for him to be at fault for being beaten by a mob.
		So I don't even want to call this a lynching because most lynchings actually had a crime underneath it.
		But for all intents and purposes, it was a lynching.
		And now you have the politicians basically going, hey, this was street justice.
		And maybe that, maybe the guy who was beaten up, he should be charged.
		I think he should be charged as well.
		Because how dare he say something that got him beat up?
		I mean, again, I guess I could just mention this story and move on, but like, I feel like we don't give enough attention to stuff like this.
		It just pops up and people go, well, that's ridiculous.
		Anyway, do you see what happened over here?
		It's like, guys, we've got mobs of black people beating up white people because of their race.
		And then the black politicians coming out and saying, that white guy should have known his place and it's his fault.
		And now these poor, innocent black men are being charged with felonies because of this white guy's incitement of them.
		I mean, you want to talk about idiocracy.
		You want to talk about just pure inversion of everything.
		Here we are.
		Here we are, folks.
		So not to belabor it, not to beat a dead horse, but like, is anybody else covering this?
		Is that clip being played on Fox News over and over again?
		Or they just make these statements and everybody sort of rolls their eyes and moves on.
		Don't roll your eyes at this.
		This, like, do you think it's insane?
		Have you seen what's going on in the UK?
		Have you seen what's going on in Germany?
		This is what happens.
		A 15-year-old girl gets gang raped by Muslims and she says, you know, she calls them scumbags and she gets arrested and gets more jail time than the guys who raped her.
		So, like, don't roll your eyes at this.
		This isn't funny.
		This isn't silly.
		This is a projection of what is to come.
		You will be charged for being a victim.
		The American Journal.
		By the way, yesterday I covered the very curious video.
		The very curious video of several Hasidic Jewish gentlemen having a little barbecue in the woods after mutilating the corpse of a deer and burning it on a pallet and then walking away like it wasn't weird they were doing that.
	It was very funny.
	So I uploaded that.
	I uploaded a video of us talking about it and speculating about it.
	But apparently it's been censored on X. Sensitive content.
	Sensitive content.
	Now, there was nothing graphic or sensitive about it.
	I guess you could vaguely see the, I mean, it's basically like of like roadkill.
	You could see roadkill basically, the equivalent of it.
	But I don't, I have the feeling that that wasn't what caused it to be tagged.
	But I had people responding saying, why is this labeled sensitive content.
	Why is this labeled graphic content for me?
	Basically, showing that you couldn't see it unless you actually clicked on it and went to it.
	It wouldn't show up in people's feeds.
	And so I retweeted that saying, is anybody else getting sensitive content labels on this?
	Because when you upload a video, it gives you the option to label it yourself sensitive content, which you should do if it's something gory or pornographic because nobody wants that showing up on their feed all of a sudden.
	And some people were saying, yes, it says graphic content.
	Some people were saying it's showing up fine for me.
	Other people were saying it just says tweet not available.
	So apparently, and who knows what setting was what, but at least for some people or maybe in some jurisdictions, maybe people in the UK couldn't see it or something because of the Online Safety Act.
	I don't really know.
	It's all speculation at this point.
	But what I do know is that my very innocuous and well-meaning investigation into this video is being completely shadow banned and crushed and hamped down on.
	I didn't even upload the videos.
	Chris Paul, who's been doing a great job clipping the shows.
	I suggest you go and follow him at InfoWars 1984 at InfoWars 1984.
	He's been working very hard posting these clips.
	So please go give him a follow and a share.
	InfoWars 1984 is the handle there on X. And I encourage you to do it too.
	I mean, honestly, that is such a fantastic and powerful way to help us out.
	It's absolutely free.
	And if you're watching the show already, yeah, why not?
	Why wouldn't you do it?
	Why wouldn't you just have your screen recorder on or just back up?
	If you see something you like, it's like, wow, that's what I always say.
	I say this all the time.
	Here's Harrison saying it.
	I'm going to clip it out and put it up on my social.
	Tag me, tag other people.
	I mean, you know, there's a way to deal with X. I think a lot of people get frustrated because they just put stuff up and, but they don't have any followers and they don't tag anybody.
	And so nobody sees it.
	You got to play the game a little bit.
	You got to tag the right people.
	If you're just starting off on X, comments.
	Comments are where it's at.
	And especially if you can be first under the gate, follow people that are big and have a lot of response.
	And when they tweet something out, have a tweet ready, fired up.
	Be the first in the comments.
	And people will like you.
	They'll click your profile.
	They'll see what else you have to say.
	There's a game to play.
	There's a way to play it to increase views.
	You're not going to start off getting a million views on a video.
	It would have to be something, it'd have to be a crazy video for that to be the case.
	So stick at it.
	Keep plugging away.
	Keep trying to reach out to people and do some research.
	If it's something you seriously want to do, you can actually make money with this.
	And if you get a million views, I think it's a million views a month and you're whatever it is, confirmed on X. We have the blue check mark.
	If you pay for whatever the level of premium subscription on X, you can get paid out for that.
	I think it's a million views a month, and you're then eligible for revenue share.
	And like some people make thousands of dollars a month just from uploading videos they don't even make.
	That could be you.
	You could be doing that.
	So big shout out to at InfoWars 1984.
	There's a couple other guys that are that are doing the same.
	I always try to retweet them.
	Basically any clip I see from this show, I try to retweet.
	And so I, and I really be better at it.
	I should be encouraging people to follow these accounts on my X. But I'm telling you now, go follow these accounts.
	Go to my X, see the videos I repost.
	Click the links on their names and give them a follow.
	Show them some support.

	Go to thealexjonestore.com/slash Harrison if you want to let them know who sent you and make sure you're a VIP member to get the maximum amount.
	I want to go now to a video.
	I mentioned this yesterday.
	I didn't get nearly as into it as I should have, but I'm glad that this TikToker covered it even better or covered it fully.
	Basically, Canada, we showed the video of Canada is issuing $20,000 fines for walking in the woods.
	Okay, now they're predicating this on climate change.
	They're also saying it's for your safety.
	They're coming up with lots of reasons.
	It's about wildfires.
	All sorts of stuff that they're saying, none of which is actually legitimate because we have some other goings on.
	I'm sorry I'm being vague here, but the video will lay it all out for you.
	But in fact, let me, I'm going to drop a different video in here.
	We'll go to this video first because this is a Canadian spokeswoman explaining this insane law that is charging people, fining people, $20,000 for merely walking outside.
	And I thought this was a joke when I first saw it.
	It was a guy filming his son just like walking through a field.
	And he's like, what I'm doing right now is illegal and I could be fined $20,000 for this.
	It's like, what?
	That's okay.
	Sure, dude.
	Sure.
	Yeah, right.
	You're being charged $20,000 for walking in the woods.
	Come on, that can't be true, is it?
	But no, it's absolutely true.
	And then we showed the video, I think, yesterday or the day before, of the guy actually being fined $20,000.
	Now, in that case, he like wanted to be free.
	He was like, no, you should find me.
	He was like, find me because I disagree with this law and I want to challenge this law.
	I can't challenge the law if I don't have standing and I don't have standing if I haven't been fined.
	So you need to find me so that I have standing to go challenge this law behind the fine in the first place.
	But it is a law.
	It's on the books and it's being enforced in Canada.
	But there's some other aspects to it that are making people think that this probably has nothing to do with climate change.
	It probably has nothing to do with wildfires.
	It probably has nothing to do with safety in your health and a lot more to do with resource extraction and population control.
	So let's go to clip 22 here.
	This is the Canadian official.
	Basically, the Canadians are outraged that they're being charged $20,000 and they're like, this is stupid.
	What does this have to do with wildfires?
	What does this have to do with anything?
	And so the Canadian government is just coming up with different reasons that they could be implementing this, right?
	Which makes you, you know, which should make you aware that the reason they're giving for doing this is not the legitimate one.
	Because they're like, oh, we're going to charge you $20,000 for walking in the woods because hiking, because people hiking causes wildfires.
	We're trying to fight wildfires.
	People are going, that doesn't make any sense.
	That's stupid.
	You shouldn't do that.
	And they're like, well, then it's about you breaking your leg.
	And what if you break your leg?
	And we can't have you breaking your leg in the woods.
	It's like, okay, so it never was about the wildfires.
	Why'd you say that in the first place?
	The point of all of it is, if they're lying, it's for a reason.
	And the reason is the cover-up of the actual purpose of the fine.
	And I'll get to the speculation in just a second.
	First clip 22 here is the Canadian government just AB testing excuses for the law they've already implemented.
	Let's watch.
unidentified		Me going for a walk in the woods is going to cause a fire.
		I can understand why people think that that's ridiculous.
		But the reality is it's not that you might cause a fire.
		It's that if you're out there walking in the woods and you break your leg, we're not going to come and get you because we have emergency responders that are out focused on a fire that is threatening the lives of New Brunswickers.
		And if you take your boat out fishing in a pond in Crown Land and you capsize, we're not going to be able to come and help you out because our first responders are focused on an immediate and serious threat to our province.
		And so it's the possibility of diverting emergency resources away from where they are really needed.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		So like that, that makes sense on its own.
		That makes sense on its own.
		You know, outside of any fines or anything, what she just said, perfectly sensible, right?
		Sensible, whatever.
		Canadian man fines $28,872 for walking in woods during wildfire ban.
		So it makes sense to me that it's like, fair warning, everybody.
		You know, if that's the way this was put, is like, fair warning, our emergency services are at maximum capacity right now.
		We do not have the manpower to rescue you.
		Fair warning, be safe out there.
		Then great.
		That makes perfect sense to me.
		I get that.
		You're fighting a big wildfire.
		You're potentially saving tens of thousands of lives.
		You can't be drawing resources away from that to go rescue some idiot that decided to capsize his boat in a lake somewhere.
		That makes sense.
		And that's as far as it should go.
		It should be a warning.
		They should say, hey, guys, you want to go in the woods?
		You're on your own.
		Do not expect the Canadian government to come rescue you.
		And then fine.
		And then if people go out and they break their leg, then they die in the woods.
		And that was the choice they made.
		They're free human beings and they made a bad decision, I guess.
		But as long as they're aware of the risk and chose to take it, that's on them as far as I'm concerned.
		You know that there's no emergency services available and you go out on a lake and you capsize and you drown, what are we supposed to do about that?
		That was a choice you made and you have to suffer the consequences.
		How does it possibly justify $30,000 fines?
		That's the disconnect.
		How could it possibly possibly justify 30, like life-crushing fines for walking in the woods?
		Okay, so what is this really about?
		I think we have an answer.
		And I'm glad this woman put it together for me.
		Clip number five.
		Let's watch.
@gubbahomestead ▲ ● ▼		Let me get this straight.
		Three provinces in Canada have banned people from going into the forest because of fire danger.
		And if you don't comply, you could face up to $150,000 in fines and jail time.
unidentified		So effective today, new fines will range from $50,000 to $150,000.
unidentified		And imprisonment in default of payment will increase from three days to up to six months.
@gubbahomestead ▲ ● ▼		A government that can bankrupt you and send you to jail for going into the forest?
@gubbahomestead ▲ ● ▼		That doesn't sound like a government that is built to serve you.
unidentified		That sounds like a government that thinks they own you.
@gubbahomestead ▲ ● ▼		So, when a forest lockdown happens near you, ask yourself: is this for your safety and the climate?
		Or does it have something to do with lithium mining?
		You know, the mineral that is used in electric car batteries that, when it catches fire, takes thousands and thousands and thousands of gallons of water to put out.
		And let's not forget governments granting corporations the right to mine on public and private lands for the greater good.
		And they can still mine during the fire restrictions.
		But what do I know?
unidentified		I'm just a conspiracy theorist.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		So, very, very, very suspicious that you have these gigantic mining contracts opened, and suddenly Canada makes it illegal to walk in the woods.
		Are they connected?
		It seems like they are because they're directly correlated to one another.
		But what do I know?
		I'm a conspiracy theorist too.
		We got some more videos to go to.
		I just dropped in the one I was talking about earlier with the DC police.
		But I think what I want to do now, let's go to clip number two here.
		This is a great video about, again, another sort of excuse using climate change, using the environment as an excuse to impose on your restrictions, limit your liberty, and slowly but surely boil the water, turn you into a slave before you've noticed.
		Let's go to clip number two.
		Now it's happening in Massachusetts.
		Let's watch.
lauren fix ▲ ● ▼		Massachusetts is quietly pushing a bill that could fundamentally change how Americans are allowed to use their vehicles.
		Yes, you are hearing that clearly.
		Senate Bill S2246, introduced by Senate Majority Leader Cynthia Cream, sets the stage for a future where the government tracks and potentially limits how many miles you can drive each year.
		This isn't a fringe proposal, it's working its way through the legislator right now, and similar ideas are being tested in other states across the country.
		This is not a federal law.
		This is a state law.
		And at its core, this is not about transportation or emissions.
		It's about power and control.
		So what is actually in this bill?
		The Massachusetts legislation proposes the creation of a new government entity.
		This is state-based, not federal, that would track every vehicle mile traveled.
		They're calling it VMT.
		And implement these policies to reduce them over time.
		In other words, less mileage allowed.
		Now, while the bill doesn't yet impose mileage caps, it does instruct state agencies to create a reasonable pathway to cut how much people drive annually.
		Translation, a government-mandated limit on personal travel is no longer hypothetical.
		It's being drafted right now.
		Now, Bill 2246 in the Senate also outlines coordination with automakers and the use of vehicle inspection data to monitor individual mileage.
		It even suggests changing to urban planning, encouraging the development of walkable neighborhoods and fewer parking options, all with the goal of getting you out of your car, whether you want to or not.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		So again, just completely outrageous and obvious what they're trying to do.
		I mean, this is not about emissions.
		The number of reasons that that's a ridiculous claim is infinite, but obviously this is part and parcel with the C40 City program and the desired plan of the Powers of Bee to limit your consumption in every possible way.
		Monitoring and limiting the number of miles that you drive, the number of flights that you take, the amount of meat that you eat, the amount you use your air conditioning.
		Of course, all of this is ridiculous on the face of it because it's all predicated on the idea that gasoline cars create extra greenhouse gases.
		They ignore the fact that electric cars at this point today in America are coal-powered since the electricity they draw on to charge their batteries comes from coal-powered fire power plants for the most part.
		And of course, that doesn't even get into the excessive pollution that's created in the manufacture of these cars.
		For example, the lithium strip mining that is likely now taking place in the fire-ravaged sections of Canada.
		So, I mean, again, just like all of this, the excuses that they're giving are not adequate to explain the laws that are being imposed.
		So, the actual reason behind them is up for question if you don't know already.
		But I'll tell you right now, it's about basic control.
		It's about control.
		That's all it's ever been about.
		That's all it's ever been about.
		It's never been more obvious.
		The cliche at this point of the globe-trotting environmentalists like John Kerry or Bill Gates with their fleet of private jets telling you, you know, 20 miles is enough this month for you driving.
		I mean, it's cliché because it's so egregious and in your face and obvious how hypocritical and deceptive these scumbags are.
		And how if they believed a single word of what they said, their own behavior would be massively different.
		Instead, they give themselves outs.
		They give themselves caveats.
		In fact, it's exactly their environmental work that puts them above such restrictions because without them, who would be doing this important work of restricting your flight time or drive time?
		Is Massachusetts planning to track how much you drive?
		A new bill sparks debate.
		Now, remember, this is perfectly in line with things that are happening like in the UK, where they're saying every car needs to have a black box installed that can be monitored in real time 24-7 by the government.
		Okay, that has to do with free speech because they just want cameras and microphones everywhere to constantly be monitoring everything you say in order to form your social credit score and determine how much carbon allotment you're provided based on your spiritual worth according to their matrix of value.
		There's a mandate in Massachusetts to drastically reduce emissions.
		A new transportation bill to get the state there has lit up social media.
		A new transportation bill to get the state there has lit up.
		My God, I mean, this is what is everybody retarded.
		What is this sentence?
		Am I crazy?
		Am I having a stroke?
		A new transportation bill to get the state there has lit up social media.
		With claims that lawmakers on Beacon Hill want to limit your driving.
unidentified		Does that sentence make sense to you guys?
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Okay, there's a mandate.
		There's a mandate in Massachusetts to drastically reduce emissions.
		A new transportation bill to get the state there has lit up social media.
		Okay, to get to the point that they're drastically reducing emissions.
		I don't know.
		I don't know, man.
		Maybe we just need to have AI write this stuff.
		As written, the bill aims to align the state's transportation plans with mandates and goals for the reducing emissions and vehicle miles traveled.
		It's the latest part of what some opponents concerned that the Commonwealth might track how much you drive.
		Back in 2021, the state passed a law that requires Massachusetts to reach zero emissions by 2050.
		Quote, this is not a goal.
		It's not wishful thinking.
		It's actually a law.
		It's actually a law.
		It's not wishful thinking.
		I mean, it is impossible to achieve.
		That's not going to stop them from trying.
		They have different metrics the state needs to meet or have to comply with.
		Craney is one of the loudest critics of the bill currently being discussed.
		Ultimately, what this is about is control and limiting transportation.
		And if you do need to transfer yourself doing public transportation, specifically vehicles, cars, and trucks, what they're trying to do is put mechanisms in place to limit mobility.
		And of course, that's exactly what it's about.
		And we know the ultimate goal is to have you not own a car at all.
		I've said a million times, car ownership is being deliberately crushed.
		And eventually everybody will have to have electric cars, but we don't have the material or the grid capacity to support every car being electric.
		So therefore, there won't be that many cars.
		You'll have about a quarter of as many cars as you have on the road now, maybe like a tenth as many cars as you have on the road now.
		Just nobody will own them.
		And there'll be autonomous driving fleets, probably with some sort of ownership stakeholder share where you can invest in a car and then you get return on investment as it's used as an Uber.
		It'll be a whole marketplace.
		But the ultimate result will be that you can't get anywhere without permission from the state.
		And that's the ultimate goal for obvious reasons.
		It's not complicated.
		It doesn't take a lot of speculation, especially since they tell you what they're doing in the first place.
		Go read the C40 cities promotions.
		They adopt these ridiculous laws, then they impose them.
unidentified		They do absolutely nothing to help the environment whatsoever.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		They do restrict your freedoms pretty severely.
		We're back on the other side with Brandon Weicher to talk about the Ukraine war and peace summit happening in Alaska.
		Always has been.
dave smith ▲ ● ▼		I gotta say, Pierce, I mean, it's like, I'm just kind of disgusted by the tone of this entire discussion.
		I mean, it's like as if we're debating Sidney Sweeney or something like that, but I got a general and a professional here who are, what are we doing?
		You're just trying to insult Vladimir Putin, insult Russia.
		It's like, it's like the most childish, immature, just taunting.
		There's an actual war going on right now where hundreds of thousands of people have been dying.
		And there's a meeting coming up between the two leaders of the United States and Russia.
		As I said before, 90% of the world's stockpile of nuclear weapons.
		Let's all take this down a notch.
		Vladimir Putin has at least signaled recently that he will maybe is open to the idea of keeping the Donbass region, Donesk and Luhansk, of getting a corridor to Crimea, and of leaving some of the other territory.
		Why are we not all pushing in that direction?
		And why this constant need to make these insults?
		You know, like, I don't know.
		I'm an American.
		I don't see why I inherently have to have beef with the Russian people.
		I think my government is corrupt.
		I think their government is corrupt.
		But to sit here and be like, you guys are a gas station with nothing.
		The Russian people have a great culture and a great history.
		Obviously, the Soviet Union was a menace and we had a real problem with them, but the Soviet Union's been gone for many decades at this point.
		And I just find that the kind of nature of this just insulting back and forth to be beneath the magnitude of this conversation.
		It is undeniable that the West did a lot to provoke this conflict.
		It's just undeniable.
		Our CIA director through all of Joe Biden's term, Bill Burns, was the one who wrote the Net Means Net memo, who warned Condoleezza Rice, do not keep pushing in this direction.
		And we continued pushing regardless.
		It's resulted in this catastrophe.
		Like I said before, Pierce, I'm not absolving Vladimir Putin of any responsibility.
		He launched this war and he's responsible for the destruction.
		But for God's sake, Pierce, you start this at the beginning asking, but what's the actual plan?
		Like, what's the military plan for how you can evict the Russians?
		Nobody here has anything.
		So what do you want to do?
		Let's try to negotiate an end to this so people stop dying.
		It is the best case scenario.
		And it's our only chance to get out of this at this point is if we can work out some deal.
		So for God's sake, let's try to push toward that.
		No, with all of these wars, Pierce, you know, all the wars over the last 25 years of my life, it's always like the propaganda keeps on moving and moving and moving.
		There's a lot of bluster about who the good guys and who the bad guys are.
		But when you start the program by asking a simple question, like, what is the exit strategy here?
		What is the plan?
		No one really has anything.
		No one has anything other than maybe we could keep sending weapons and money in and this slow grind of people dying will continue.
		And Vladimir Putin will then, at the end of that, take the territory he wants.
		Let's try to negotiate an end to this nightmare that never needed to happen.
		Yeah, that's exactly what Neville Chamberlain.
unidentified		I'll come to the station.
dave smith ▲ ● ▼		Shut up.
		Just the dumbest, like, what are you?
		ADIQ, Neville Chamberlain.
		That's right.
		Appease.
		Anybody ever arguing against war is always Neville Chamberlain.
		is the one and only lesson of history, that appeasement never works and aggression is always right.
unidentified		Why don't you take some of the lessons from the...
dave smith ▲ ● ▼		You obviously don't know Vladimir Putin.
		Appeasement?
		We appease dictators all over the planet right now.
		I just said something that I actually meant that I think was more than just surface level.
		And your response is with the dumbest slogan.
		We appease dictators all over the world.
		We overthrow democratically elected governments and prop up dictators.
		What are you even talking about?
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely fantastic stuff from Dave Smith as always.
		And that's about as much respect as these guys deserve.
		And, you know, it's just, it's a powerful example of just bashing through the form, right?
		Blasting through the way the discussion is supposed to go.
		I'm supposed to say you're Neville Chamberlain and you're supposed to say, oh, never.
		No, no, I'm not.
		I would never appease the Nazis.
		Let's go to war with Russia.
		It's this absurd sloganeering that is like keeping us completely enthralled in these insane wars.
		And it's been going on my entire life.
		You're not with us.
		You're against us.
		We're going to bring him freedom.
		Weapons of mass destruction.
		I mean, they just deployed these absurd and contextless statements.
		And then people bowed to him.
		And finally, people are just going, shut up.
		Make an argument.
unidentified		Shut up.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Stop with this sloganeer.
unidentified		He means nothing.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		You're sick.
		Stop the wars.
		Stop giving me dumbass slogans to justify murdering people.

		Keep us on the air and in the fight as we seemingly inch closer to some sort of, well, I don't know, conclusion or evolution in the various wars being waged around the world by us or on our behalf.
		There's a big summit with Russia.
		We would love to see some ceasefire agreement established.
		We'd love to see peace established.
		But it's looking like while we're simultaneously making overtures about peace from European countries and NATO to Israel and Iran, it seems like everybody's preparing for more war.
		So we'll see where this inflection point takes us.
		But to give us insight and understanding about this is Brandon Weickert.

		Brandon, welcome back to the show, sir.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Thank you for having me.
		And the last time I was here, you and I were a little bit down because it looked like Trump had taken his silly pills and was starting to provoke Putin again.
		But I'm coming to you with a message of hope, which is something that I normally don't do, unfortunately.
		I'm very hopeful about this meeting between Trump and Putin in Alaska.
		I think we're going to be getting a conclusion of some kind.
		I don't want to say a peace deal.
		I don't know if it'll be a peace deal, but it's going to be a conclusion, I think, to the war.
		I think one way or the other, the war is coming to an end in the next 45 to 90 days.
		I think that the Russians clearly have won this war.
		It's a question of how much of Ukraine are they going to take.
		I think they're going to take everything up and including Odessa.
		And I think that Zelensky knows that his days are numbered.
		I think we're getting ready to remove him and replace him with Zeluzhny.
		And hopefully after that, after the Russians feel they've acquired what they need in Ukraine and we can kind of reset the tables here, hopefully we can start doing business with Russia to get joint development deals on rare earth minerals because that's a key thing for us.
		China has us by the kahonas right now because they've got all the rare earth minerals that we need to build advanced technology.
		Russia has tens of millions of untapped cubic meters of rare earth minerals as well as all the energy.
		And so we need to be talking about doing that with them.
		And if Ukraine's off the table, we can start doing that.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		What a wonderful surprise, Brandon.
		What a wonderful surprise to hear you say that.
		And, you know, I've been seeing the headlines sort of hinting that that was the case, that this might be, you know, coming to an end.
		Things are not looking so peachy for old Zelensky over there.
		And I want to get into exactly what's behind all of this.
		But yeah, part of me is just, you know, we've been sort of had the rug pulled from under us so many times.
		It's like, I'm not expecting anything to come of this.
		Even though it looks like it might be something good, I'm like, we'll see because, you know, nothing ever good happens.
		It's just, I've just got this blackbill mentality.
		So I'm very happy to hear you say that.
		I mean, what is behind this?
		I know we've got a couple stories here like this.
		Russian troops pierce Ukraine's patchy defenses in Donetsk days before Trump Putin's summit.
		This was only 21 hours ago.
		So they've broken through some major goals for them, including a push towards Dopropila, the Ukrainian battlefield monitoring group.
		A deep state reported Tuesday.
		The town is around 12 miles north of the key strategic city of Pokrotsk, sorry, and has been in the Kremlin crosshairs for more than a year.
		So basically, they're making advancements.
		Zelensky comes out and says, well, this is Russia just they want to put on a show before this Trump meeting so they can act like they're winning.
		I mean, it seems like they're winning.
		It also seems like Zelensky.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		They're winning.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Zelensky's also facing a ton of upheaval in his country, a lot of protests breaking out, corruption probes going on there.
		How much does that have to do with it?
		Why now are we seemingly closer to peace than ever before?
		What has changed in this equation?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Well, very technically, we're out of weapons.
		We can't give them any more than we've given them.
		So you'll remember a few weeks ago when Netanyahu came in to see Trump and the whole Epstein thing happened and the very odd things going on there.
		But you'll remember Trump surprised the room when he said the first night that Netanyahu was here at that dinner.
		He said, oh, we're giving weapons to Ukraine.
		And Hegseth, the Secretary of Defense, kind of looked over at him like, what?
		Because just 48 hours before that, Elbridge Colby, who's the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, did a mandated review of all of our critical stockpiles of weapons.
		And the Pentagon, apolitical, it was an apolitical assessment.
		They determined that, in fact, not only had we depleted stockpiles of key weapons that we need, but we've actually gone below what's known as war reserve status.
		And what that means is you start dipping into war reserves.
		First of all, our defense industrial base is not what it once was.
		We can't replenish those systems anytime soon.
		Second of all, if you're going into war reserves, that means there's nothing left on the shelves.
		And when we need those weapons, they won't be there.
		And so I think that is what's going on here.
		I think Trump gave one more tranche a few weeks ago of weapons to the Ukrainians.
		It wasn't as much as we promised we would give them.
		And that's a tell right there.
		And I think now we're really at depletion here.
		And I think that even Trump knows this and that he can't give any more weapons.
		And I think the Russians know this.
		And in terms of being on the ground, the Russians have not lost any territory the entire war.
		They have held on to the entire portion of the country that they covet, and they have held on to it for years.
		They have enforced, reinforced those positions.
		And now the Ukrainians have thrown everything in the kitchen sink, including the kitchen sink, at the Russians.
		And the Russians have not really been deterred at all.
		Now the Ukrainians are out of guys, and now we're running out of weapons to give them.
		So just by default, the war is coming to an end.
		Putin knows this.
		The Russians keep very close eye on these things in terms of our war reserves.
		And I think Trump is going to Elmendorf, which is the Air Force base in Alaska.
		This isn't really going to be a negotiation.
		This is going to be basically Putin saying, look, this is what I'm willing to do.
		Can you meet me there?
		And I think Trump, at the end of the day, is going to do that because he wants to do business with Russia on more important issues.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		And Ukraine is just not important anymore to well, and here's the headline from CNN just a few days ago.
		New Pentagon policy could divert weapons built for Ukraine back into U.S. stockpiles.
		Again, echoing what you were just saying about the fact that we've depleted our own reserves to a dangerous degree.
		And now we're realizing, hey, these things, these weapons were built specifically for Ukraine.
		We're like, we can't send them to Ukraine.
		We need them.
		We need them here.
		We need to keep our stockpiles at least somewhat full.
		Can we sacrifice our own safety on the altar of Ukraine?
		Now, whatever happened to the deadline?
		I'd completely forgotten about it until just now as you're talking.
		I'm like, wait, wasn't there a deadline that Trump put forward?
		And he was going to send the big missiles to Ukraine and this.
		And it was so weird.
		He always says, he's like, I talked to Putin and he's so friendly and we get along great.
		And then he bombs Kiev the next day.
		And it's like, yeah, dude, he's not going to just unilaterally stop waging A war because you're friendly with him.
		Like, what was he even thinking was going to happen there?
		So, I mean, Russia this whole time is just acting sort of in accordance with the material reality on the ground and just going, we're winning.
		We're going to keep winning until you surrender.
		Like, that's just how it works.
		So, again, whatever happened with that deadline?
		Like, didn't that pass a couple days ago?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
		A couple days ago.
		And if anything, it was obvious it was always for show.
		And I was on another program several weeks ago on Real America's Voice, and I was telling them the deadline means nothing.
		It's Trump putting on a show for NATO and for the media in the West.
		He's trying to keep them off his back.
		The reality is we're running out of stuff.
		Putin knows it.
		Trump knows it.
		Trump is not invested in this war.
		He's trying to figure out a way out.
		Putin's going to give him a way out in Alaska on Friday.
		And so we're going to see an end.
		Now, what does that mean?
		That means probably whatever survives of Zelensky-controlled Ukraine is going to be a rump state.
		But it's not going to be our problem.
		We're out.
		And this is the end.
		And I think that's why you're seeing on social media all the NAFO bots are going absolutely ape over this.
		The Europeans, I saw an article about this morning how the Europeans are having a Zoom call with Trump right now because they're not invited.
		Good.
		Good.
		We don't need them meddling.
		I did a debate a few weeks ago with Sir Michael Fallon, who was the defense secretary at the UK under David Cameron.
		And he basically admitted that the hope is that the British can deploy peacekeepers into Ukraine in order to get them shot at or killed by the Russians so they can then demand Article 5.
		So our European friends are not really our friends.
		So Trump needs to get this over.
		And I think it will get done in, I think we're going to have a deal probably very soon.
		And it's over.
		And Russia's won.
		And, you know, we need to move on from this now.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		I agree.
		You know, clearly, you know, NATO is not ready to let this go quite yet.
		I think we're very much in the realm of false flag territory trying to bring us in even more closely.
		At the same time, you have noise about Israel planning the next Iran attack.
		I wanted to ask you about that in just a little bit.
		I mean, it is very funny.
		I have the headlines here.
		Europe and Ukraine launched last-ditch diplomatic drive ahead of Trump Putin summit.
		A virtual summit will include Trump alongside the leaders of Ukraine, Germany, France, Britain, Finland, Italy, Poland, and the European NATO and European Union and NATO.
		And then Zelensky's on this Zoom call as well.
		So they held a last-minute, last-ditch Zoom call meeting.
		And that's as close as Zelensky is getting to these negotiations.
		Again, just a weird kind of setup where there's a Ukraine-Russia war and it's, you know, it's being decided at a summit between the U.S. president and Alaska in Alaska.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		At a military base in Alaska where nobody's getting in and nobody's getting out until it's over.
		And it just shows you our greatest allies.
		Again, here we go, our greatest allies.
		We can't even trust them to be in the same room because they're going to meddle and they're going to do these horrible things because they want war.
		So, no, I think that's the tell.
		I think, look, and I also think the reason the Europeans are so desperate right now is because they know that this is the diminishment of NATO.
		And that's really their only card remaining in terms of being considered a great geopolitical power.
		This is the end of Europe as a geopolitical force.
		And they're willing to go to war in order to make sure that they remain involved in global politics in any meaningful way.
		And this is it for them.
		They're not going to be involved much longer.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, which is so weird because they don't have the capacity to be involved in the first place.
		They've shut down their industrial base more or less.
		So, I mean, they aren't producing weapons.
		They don't have strong land armies.
		So it's like they're desperate to cling on to this thing that they don't even have in the first place.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		It's just crazy.
		So what I've heard is that Putin is basically just going to ask, you know, these territories that we've concert, Luluhansk and Donetsk, they need to be sovereign Russian territory and that needs to be established.
		What else is Russia demanding?
		What is the U.S. demanding?
		What are the terms of this negotiation going into it?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Well, I actually think it's interesting.
		I still maintain a lot of relationships with people in Russia.
		And one of my contacts said, look, Putin is actually being the reasonable one here because the Russian people, and we keep hearing about, oh, the Russian people are oppressed.
		Well, apparently the Russian people, the majority of them, not only support the war because so many of their kids and loved ones have been killed fighting now, they actually want Putin to go in and, quote, flatten Kyiv tomorrow.
		They want it to mean something.
		And so Putin actually coming to negotiate is actually kind of risking his rule because he's got the support of the Russian people for the most part.
		They want to wipe everything out now because so many Russians have died.
		But I think that what this means is that Putin is going to get the eastern part of Ukraine.
		I think he's probably going to get formal recognition from us, or he's going to work toward that for the annexation of Crimea, which occurred in 2014 under Obama.
		It's not a Trump problem.
		It's not a Republican problem.
		That was a Democrat problem, and they didn't resolve it.
		So that's what he wants.
		And I do think, though, the Russians are going to try to take everything up to and including Odessa in order to ensure that the rump Ukrainian post-war state is completely landblocked and is basically a welfare case for Europe, which it will be.
		It already is, but it's going to be now more formally.
		And there'll be a new leader.
		I think we're working.
		I think we're working behind the scenes.
		The U.S. is to remove Zelensky either peacefully or by killing him.
		One way or the other, Zeluzhny is going to take over, who's much more reasonable, I think.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		That's what I was wondering.
		So I saw these protests breaking out in Ukraine.
		I was speculating, okay, is this because USAID got defunded?
		And so whatever propaganda was keeping a lid on things isn't there anymore and people are just going out and protesting for the first time?
		Or is this like a color revolution to fix the problems from the last color revolution?
		Are we now overthrowing Zelensky in the same way that we overthrew Zelensky's predecessor?
		Like, well, what's going on?
		What's behind these protests in Ukraine?
		Do you have any insight into that?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		I think there might even be rival factions of our CIA that are fighting each other right now.
		We know that it's not a monolithic entity.
		I know several CIA guys who are very pro-Trump.
		They're not the majority, obviously, but you've got a lot of competing interests.
		Doge really did a big favor in the sense that it highlighted all of the corruption and the problems.
		But this wouldn't be the first time, Harrison, that we removed a friendly or allied leader in the middle of a war.
		We did this to Diem during the Vietnam War.
		Remember, we assassinated him and he was the leader of Vietnam.
		And, you know, this is the sort of thing we do all the time where we start killing our own guy on the ground because he's not exactly doing what we want.
		And certainly Zelensky has been pilfering our money and using it to buy real estate for him and his wife and his mother-in-law all over the world.
		Yeah, there you go, the Diem coup in Vietnam.
		So that was, I actually keep saying, and I said this in my book, there's a lot of similarities between what's going on in Ukraine right now, what went on in Vietnam.
		And that's scary, including having U.S. advisors on the ground because those guys are not just staying in the friendly part of Kiev and training.
		I think those guys are going out and fighting as well.
		In fact, I know one of them who was killed on the front lines.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		So many, so many similarities to that.
		Although it appears as though we're sort of learning our lesson from history, because as you're describing the Russian population, they're sort of engaging in this in a form of a sunk cost fallacy.
		If we spend so much money on this, we got to keep going.
		We got to spend even more because we got to get our money's worth to turn a phrase.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		But in many ways, look, look, in many ways, Russia's actually done very well in the war from a material standpoint.
		They have survived and they've thrived in the face of the economic sanctions.
		Mark Ruta, the head of NATO, admitted three months ago or four months ago, he said, look, NATO is producing in one year that which Russia produces in terms of weapons, that which Russia produces every three months.
		Before the war, this was not possible for Russia.
		Russia was just a gas station with nukes.
		Actually, Russia's a very serious country.
		It's a real country.
		And now, by the way, as my Russian friends say, hey, look, we took on all of NATO and we're winning.
		That's scary.
		That's scary.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Ukraine's ask in Alaska, a lasting ceasefire, security guarantees, and billions in Russian payment.
		That's a headline from Politico.
		Kiev is afraid to be left out of negotiations, which they are.
		While Trump might strengthen Putin just as Russia is beginning to feel the strain of war.
		It does seem like it's coming to an end.
		I want to ask you about some other geopolitical stuff with Iran and Israel in just a second.
		So as a final word on Ukraine, we're going to be watching this summit with a very distinct interest.
		We hope that a peace agreement comes out of it.
		What's your best and worst case scenario for the outcome of this summit?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		My best case scenario is this actually leads to a real end of the conflict and we can build off of that doing those deals I talked about on rare earth mineral and really working Russia into our camp rather than China's.
		The worst case scenario, look, either way you look at it, Russia's winning.
		The worst case scenario out of this is basically Trump is left with nothing and Putin is just going to march on whatever part of Ukraine he wants.
		And then from there, that worst case scenario becomes even scarier because that's when NATO could then come involved and try to get Article 5, which is what ultimately Zelensky and NATO want.
		They want us basically in a direct shooting war with nuclear-armed Russia.
		I don't think it's going to come to that.
		I think we're going to get some kind of a deal.
		And, you know, I think we're going to be able to move beyond that.
		But I think after this, I think the Middle East is going to erupt in a major war again.
		That's what I think this is.
		We'll settle the European conflict and be in the Middle East again.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		And be able to focus our time and resources on that objective.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		And another peripheral war.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		To nobody's benefit.
		And of course, through all of this, as absurd as it all is, I mean, the Ukrainians have paid this horrible price for being our puppet.
		I mean, how many of their men have been killed?
		Entire generations have been wiped out.
		More generations have fled the country, probably never to return.
		They have been, and now, as you point out, they're going to be basically consigned to being a rump state of little to no importance with no access to water and therefore their trade massively restricted.
		Some of their most, you know, important provinces given over to Russia because of the mismanagement of all of this.
		I mean, the Ukrainian people have really been screwed in this deal, haven't they?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Yo, absolutely.
		They've been screwed royally.
		It's horrible.
		It's a tragedy.
		It's a disaster of our own making, as the title of my book says.
		It literally is.
		We caused all of this to happen.
		It didn't have to happen at all.
		In fact, the Russians, and I document this in my book, and I know there's another even better book.
		I didn't know about it at the time.
		It was Scott Wharton's book.
		But, you know, Horton's book and my book both show that there were multiple attempts by the Russians to not have this go kinetic.
		And the Biden regime, I think, wanted it to go kinetic.
		Certainly the British did.
		And they thought they, as one general told me, I briefed the Pentagon pretty frequently, as you know, I had a two-star general tell me back in mid-2022 as the war was going on, don't you understand, Mr. Weickert?
		We're bleeding the Russian army in the field for free.
		And I told him, I said, it ain't for free.
		I mean, there's a lot of people paying the price for this, including the Ukrainians, especially the Ukrainians.
		And they will never be able to rebuild the way that Russia will be able to rebuild.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely brutal.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		And, of course, American taxpayers are on the hook for all of it.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Like we've got, like, we've got it, you know?
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		It's absurd.
		It's just completely ridiculous and insane.
		But we don't have too much time, but this is the story that was published yesterday.
		The next Iran-Israel war is coming.
		Both countries' strategic calculus suggests it will be even more violent.
		I think all of us saw this coming ever since the big kerfuffle a few months ago with Israel attacking Iran.
		We bombed Iran.
		And then it settled down.
		I don't think any serious person thought, well, that's it.
		It's over.
		It's like, nope, what's coming next?
		When are they going to launch the next attack?
		What do you think Israel's plan is here?
		They're trying to go into Gaza.
		They're calling up 400,000 reservists to try to deal with that.
		They're going to start a war in Iran at the same time.
		They can't even handle Gaza.
		Well, what do you think is the plan here?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Well, I think Israel's bitten off more than they can chew.
		And this is always timed with some kind of problem for Netanyahu politically.
		This is a classic wag the dog scenario, right?
		I feel like I'm watching Bill Clinton in 1998 bombing an aspirin factory because the Lewinsky scandal is breaking out in the media.
		So this is timed for his next political crisis.
		I think they're going to get bogged down in a counterinsurgency campaign in Gaza.
		It's not going to go well.
		They don't have enough troops.
		Remember, they're also tied down holding territory in Syria.
		They're also still dealing with the threat from Hezbollah in Lebanon.
		And they are trying to maintain this air corridor over Iran, which is very far away.
		So you're right.
		This is a lot of stuff they're taking on.
		Ultimately, it's going to be them calling Big Brother in America to clean up their mess, as is always the case.
		And because I suspect Donald Trump is in the Epstein files on some level, we're going to be there.
		And so I Believe probably by September-ish, we're going to have another round of conflict that will probably involve the United States even more, especially if we're drawing down from Ukraine, because God knows we're not allowed to have peace in this country.
		You know, we shift over to the next war.
		I think in probably this fall, we're going to have another outburst of violence.
		And I think that ultimately, if we can get Russia on our, you know, in a good place with diplomacy, we might be able to not have this breakout in the Middle East into a world war because Russia ultimately is sort of the kingmaker for Iran.
		If Russia is being cut into deals, not just peace deals, but the Zanzer corridor in Azerbaijan, that might prevent this thing from going into a world war.
		But we're going to be seeing massive conflict this fall.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Well, I guess we'll have to wait for the outcome of this summit in Alaska.
		And that'll really set the table for a wider geopolitical chess game.
		Stay tuned to Brandon Weickert at WeTheBrandon on X, WeikertReport.com.
		Thank you so much for joining us once again, sir.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, thank you.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		All right, welcome back.
		Ladies and gentlemen, this is the American Journal.
		I'm your host, Terry Tim Smith.
		I ask Brandon Weiert to stay with us for a few minutes to get a little further into Israel and Iran since we just barely touched on it in the last segment.
		I think it's worth a little bit more investigation considering it seems like things are, well, things are developing one way or another.
		And hopefully Brandon can shed some light as to exactly what that looks like.
		You can follow Brandon on X at WeTheBrandon, and his website is WeikertReport.com.
		And he, of course, is a regular on this show, bringing us high-level analysis of geopolitical events.
		So the latest out of Israel is they are both going into Gaza full force.
		Let's see, I have the article here.
		Zamir approves outline for Gaza City offensive.
		IDF Chief of Staff, Lieutenant General Ayal Samir, has approved the general outline for the military's upcoming major offensive to conquer Gaza City, the IDF says.
		And at the same time, it sort of seems like a foregone conclusion at this point.
		They're going to go to war with Iran as well.
		You've got foreign policy writing headlines like, will Trump take part in the next war between Israel and Iran?
		So it's not even a question to them.
		It's not speculation.
		It's a foregone conclusion.
		There is going to be a war.
		The only question is whether Trump, not even whether how much Trump will be involved in it.
		What is Israel doing, man?
		I mean, what are they thinking right now?
		They can barely handle what they've got going on in Gaza.
		The whole world seems to be turning against them.
		You've got Australia, France, England.
		They're all recognizing Palestine as a legitimate state now, which is frankly a very ironic outcome of all of this.
		If the outcome of the last two and a half or year and a half of conflict is that Palestine gets a state and the Tuesday solution comes to fruition, I mean, that would be a major twist of fate.
		What is happening?
		What is happening in Israel, Brandon?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		I really am convinced that this is a sort of a cross between, like I said before, this sort of political concern, Netanyahu's trying to stay in power.
		Shinbet, their FBI, is coming hard after him for corruption, obvious corruption.
		And so he's trying to do that.
		But there's also this very radical ideology, you call it Zionism, Lekudnik party politics, whatever, that really buys into this greater Israel project, which basically says they're going to reclaim for the Jewish people a lot of territory in the Middle East, but they don't have the numbers to do it.
		I mean, this is really just set aside whether you agree with it or not.
		This, again, this goes down to logistics.
		They don't have the numbers to actually accomplish these lofty goals, these Revanchist aims that they seem to be setting for themselves, or at least the Likud party seems to be setting.
		And I would just add this.
		I speak to a lot of IDF types.
		I've interfaced with a lot of IDF leaders, a lot of retired IDF people here in the States.
		I have yet to meet a single one of these IDF people, the leadership type, who actually believe this is a good thing that's going on.
		In fact, the IDF is very concerned that their forces, rightly, are being strained and stretched.
		And they're worried about, hey, if we strain and stretch our forces here, what's going to happen when, say, Hezbollah really comes online and starts popping off all those precision-guided munitions they've been stockpiling for a decade.
		What happens if Iran does decide to fire all these hypersonic and advanced weapons that they have that they've kind of not been doing in the last couple months?
		What happens if we really get hit hard?
		What happens if the Houthis go full bore against us with their hypersonic weapons, the Fatah II?
		So the IDF is not, despite what they're saying publicly, Netanyahu's problems were his own generals are very skeptical.
		They're going to do it because they're ordered, but they're very skeptical that they can do this.
		And I don't even know what conquering Gaza means.
		It's a broken city.
		It's like Mogadishu.
		It's completely shattered.
		What are you conquering?
		You're conquering rubble.
		So, you know, that's what's going on here, though, ultimately, is the Greater Israel Project.
		And I think they really, really, and I think to some degree, Israel's not wrong.
		They are threatened by Iran.
		But the problem is they can't really hit Iran the way they want to without U.S. backing.
		And that's where the problem comes in: what is Trump going to do?
		And as I said, I think Trump is in the Epstein files.
		I think that was a Mossad CIA operation, MI6 operation.
		And I think the president is on some level compromised by it.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		So I think we'll be there too.
		I hope not.
		And I mean, the message you get to Trump is like, dude, we don't care.
		Don't start World War III.
		Don't kill 10,000 people just to save your reputation.
		You would be a hero for sacrificing your own reputation.
		Let them release the blackmail.
		We will support you as long as we know that you're willing to take this on to stop World War III from breaking out.
		Not that we are.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Look, America first means America first.
		That's what I keep telling people.
		America first.
		It's not America, oh, and this.
		It's America first.
		So it's not in our interest.
		Bottom line, it's not in our interest to be in the middle of a Zionist versus Islamist fight.
		Let them figure it out.
		We'll go and worry about other more important things closer to home.
		That's my view.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's interesting you compare Gaza and Mogadishu.
		I guess Mogadishu is in Somalia, but Israel is engaged in negotiations to potentially deport Palestinians to South Sudan.
		So, you know, I guess it's not much of an improvement one way or the other.
		But, you know, you want to know what their plan is.
		Apparently, that's it.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, well, and even trying to possibly deport them here.
		And I hope we're not stupid enough to accept any more refugees.
		You know, this whole thing is completely out of hand.
		The establishment in D.C. is not operating in a very sane or rational manner.
		They haven't for a while.
		The only saving grace here, and I say this unfortunately, is that we have depleted our stockpiles and they won't be getting replenished anytime soon.
		So on some level, the U.S. military is going to go to the president and say, Mr. President, even if you want to go full bore against Iran, we literally can't.
		And so at the end of the day, we're going to be defeated by depletion.
		And that might actually be a good thing because it gets us out of the Middle East then.
		But unfortunately, that's where things are going because our leaders do not live in reality.
		They don't understand that the American people don't want to fight in the Middle East and we don't have the means to do it anymore.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		Right.
		And it's just, I mean, if you want to really just do the final deathblow to Israel's reputation in America, I mean, have them, you know, fulfill the plans when it comes to war with Israel.
		And, you know, there's the Greater Israel patch on the IDF uniform soldier.
		And we've been talking about this forever.
		I mean, my argument back when I debated Michael Tracy about this before the election last year, my argument was very simple.
		It was, Israel has this Greater Israel plan.
		It cannot achieve that without the manpower of the United States.
		That is our ultimate goal, to get American boots on the ground.
		And I thought Trump was the best option because despite Kamala Harris's democratic obligations to speak out against what's happening in Israel, Trump was the one that will not commit to American boots on the ground for Israel when that's what they need.
		They don't need American airstrikes.
		I mean, they help, but what they need is the manpower on the ground to actually maintain control over Greater Israel.
		They cannot do that with the manpower they have now.
		It would require America to do that.
		And I don't think Trump is willing to put Americans in harm's way like that.
		At least I hope not.
		But this was always considered a conspiracy theory.
		And if you talked about Greater Israel, you know, you are an anti-Semite, which is shocking because as of yesterday, quote, Netanyahu says he's On a historic and spiritual mission, also feels a connection to the vision of greater Israel.
		So he just told I-24 television station in Israel that he is attached to this vision of Greater Israel and is on a historic and spiritual mission to fulfill it.
		So I guess not an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory after all, Brandon.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		No, no, absolutely not.
		And they've spoken openly about it since 1948.
		And, you know, look, my view is if you guys are going to do that, that's on you.
		It's not our problem.
		We shouldn't have any that's that's not an American problem.
		That's that's a Middle East and Israeli problem.
		And the rational thing to do would be to say we're not just going to participate in any of this.
		Good luck and God bless.
		You know, but it's not, it's not our problem.
		Unfortunately, as you're pointing out, right, they need our manpower to do it.
		And I think it's interesting.
		In 1991 in Desert Storm, the Saudis basically used us to stop Saddam.
		And I know for a fact, and I say somebody who's friendly with Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia looked at our troops as mercenaries.
		They were expendable.
		They weren't good enough because they were Christian.
		Well, unfortunately, the Zionists are viewing U.S. troops the same way.
		They want to use us basically as mercenaries, pay off our leaders, get blackmail on our leaders, manipulate them into sending our kids to go fight for not a war in our interest.
		And it's all in service to what is not necessarily an American vision or interest in the Middle East, which is creating this new ethno-state out of former Arab lands or whatever.
		And again, that's if Israel can do it on their own, then that's their problem.
		But to include us is frankly ridiculous.
		It's not in our interests.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		I agree.
		And you even have these incredibly, just to your point, I think it was Mark Levin explaining, explaining to everybody.
		Well, losing screaming, you mean?
		Yes, scream, explaining to everybody.
		Exactly.
		You know, losing one IDF soldier is like losing a thousand American soldiers.
		And it's like, why would we ever participate in something with somebody that thinks like that?
		You literally, you just don't care about American soldiers.
		A thousand of them can die, and it means as much to you as one IDF soldier dying.
		And that's your pitch for us to join you in this fight?
		It's offensive to me.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		It is.
		Well, Mark Levin is spittling and spraying the screen with his anger and his love of, look, I don't have a problem with Israel, but they need to worry about their own business and not include us in, you know, we have other interests.
		And I think it's very important to note in May, Trump had that great speech in Riyadh.
		The Arabs did these incredible business deals with the United States, specifically not bringing in Israel, which is showing you that whatever they're saying publicly, the Arabs are plotting a post-Israel Middle East, which if you're an Israeli, that's a very bad thing.
		You want to be integrated into the Middle East.
		You want to be doing business.
		You want to have them having your back.
		So the concern that I have is what you pointed out earlier.
		The ironic end point of this conflict that Israel is engaging in is that Israel's in a worse position than it was on 10-7.
		And that's the tragedy here is that their leaders have completely taken them down a really bad path that I don't know how they're going to be able to recover from.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I don't either.
		And I guess just as a final question for you, going back to what you were saying about the threats that Israel faces, I mean, they're the same threats they've always faced.
		And I'm sort of baffled, not even that I want one outcome or the other.
		I'm just thinking strategically, if I'm the leader of Iran or if I'm the leader of Hezbollah, I start hitting Israel and I don't let up until it's over.
		Because like, you know, with the last, you know, exchange where Israel and Iran were bombing each other, I mean, Israel was not doing so well.
		I mean, Iran was hitting them and it was hurting them.
		And they were, you know, for like a week or so, it was like, oh, man, this is looking bad for Israel.
		And then, you know, peace was established.
		Obviously, Israel's been replenishing its reserves.
		It's, you know, restocking its iron dome.
		So like, I guess my question is, like, what is keeping these other countries at bay?
		Why is Iran being so careful about this?
		Why didn't Hezbollah get involved earlier?
		Why isn't it really going now when it's at its most strength?
		Like, what does Israel do to keep all of these forces at bay while it continues operations in Gaza?
		What's happening behind the scenes or what am I missing here?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		The thing you're missing is Russia.
		Russia is the only reason.
		And I wrote about this two years ago at the Washington Times because everybody was asking, why hasn't Iran just followed through on their threats?
		Is it that they Can't.
		No, I think the actual answer is they are beholden to Russia for military and economic support.
		And the Russians have been keeping them on a tight leash because the Russians have been wanting to do business deals with the United States.
		But this is why it's so important what's going on in Alaska, because if it looks like the Americans and Trump go off the deep end and say, screw you to Russia, and then we don't do any deals or don't leave the door open.
		At that point, my friend, you're going to see a much different Iranian response when the next round of violence begins.
		But if we keep Russia in our tent peeing out rather than outside peeing in, we will be able to probably avoid a major retaliation from Iran because Iran has the capacity.
		Look, Iran has missile cities underground.
		Iran has, and they've been replenishing with the help of Russia their defenses.
		They've got a lot of capabilities.
		And the only reason that they haven't been able to use them was partly because Mossad did a very good job of sabotaging them at the start of the last war, the 12-day war, but also because Russia's been holding them back.
		But the moment Russia feels they can't get a deal with us, they're going to let the Iranians off the chain and let the pieces fall what they may.
		And that's going to be a very bad day for Israel because Iron Dome cannot stop hypersonic missiles.
unidentified		They can't.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Right.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		And we and we saw that evidenced with the strikes that Iran.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		From the Houthis.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Well, from the Hussains.
unidentified		Yeah.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		I mean, that's the scary thing.
		And, you know, you can cripple Israel economically by going after their three ports and their only major airport, which is Ben-Gurion International.
		And that's what the Houthis and Iranians were doing.
		You don't even need to, you know, really target anything else other than the ports and the airport.
		And you shut down their economy.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Well, they have all of their critical infrastructure in this one little triangle in Israel.
		And it's so vulnerable, which is why, again, just purely strategically, I'm just like, what is going on here?
		So that is interesting.
		So just again, just to clarify and solidify it, let's say there's two possible outcomes of the Russia summit.
		Either there's sort of a path to peace and a ceasefire and signs that things will be slowing down and coming to an end in Ukraine, Ukraine and Russia.
		And then I guess there's the outcome where there's no settlement and Trump starts sending the big missiles to Ukraine and they're bombing Moscow.
		So if peace is established or ceasefire is established, if a road to a conclusion in Ukraine is established, what's the outcome versus the war continues?
		What's the outcome when it comes to Iran and Israel?
		Just lay that dichotomy.
		I know you just did that, but real simply, which one?
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, basically, if we can get some kind of a deal on Ukraine with Russia, we can build off of that and we can basically then create connected trade deals, particularly the Zangzer corridor in Azerbaijan, which Russia wants to be a part of, I think.
		So if we can cut them into that massive deal, what that will do is it will isolate Iran, but it will divorce Russia from Iran.
		So you can actually bring Russia into our camp, but it has to start with peace over Ukraine.
		It has to start with some end of the Ukraine war because none of this happens if the war is still going on.
		So we can get that deal.
		You bring Russia into our camp.
		You flip them away from China.
		You get them isolated from Iran.
		They're making a lot of money, a lot of opportunities off of us.
		And then suddenly all the problems in the Middle East at best remain region, at worst, rather, remain regional problems.
		They don't explode into a world war.
		If we don't get a deal, though, Russia has no incentive, none whatsoever to stop the fighting in the Middle East.
		In fact, they probably want it to go more because they want us to be distracted even more from Ukraine if that war is still going on.
unidentified		Wow.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Well, a lot of writing on this Alaska summit.
		Prayers to Trump and Putin to try to get an end to this conflict.
		And people out there will mock you, what's happened to World War III?
		And it's like, it's still hovering out there.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		It's still there, man.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		It's still looming over us like a sword of Damocles.
		Thank God we haven't tripped the wire yet and caused this to happen.
		But we're still just sort of teetering on the edge.
		And there's so many forces that are against peace and have put so much work and so much effort into creating these wars.
		I worry about some sort of false flag to really drive us in deeper, especially when you got Netanyahu now talking about how actually none of the uranium in Iran was damaged and it still exists.
		We need to go in there.
		And I'm thinking, I mean, it seems like Israel's reputation is so bad.
		The American populace is so sick of wars in the Middle East.
		It would take something like, and I hate to even say it, it would take something like a dirty Bomb going off in a U.S. city blamed on Iran.
		And at that point, it would be so chaotic.
		And I mean, the fear and fright would be such a high level.
		Everybody turned to the media.
		They'd be telling you, don't worry, folks.
		We're going to go after them.
		We're going to get Iran.
		And that's how you get the next big war.
		So I think without a major false flag attack, I don't see them ginning up the public support for war with Iran.
		But I also don't see them getting away with an attack.
		So, I mean, the end of all this, I think the information war is the ultimate in that people are not falling for the slogans anymore.
		They're not falling for the talking points.
		And even if we were false flagged, I think more people would be suspicious of Israel and the United States government than they would to believe them that it was Russia or Iran.
		So I think we're winning the information war, Brandon.
		That's the real thing.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I think you are.
		Well, I think InfoWars definitely is at the tip of that spear.
		And you guys have done a lot of good work making people think for themselves.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Well, all I know is I'm going to feel real stupid if we go to war with Iran.
unidentified		Well, me too.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Well, me too.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		The bombing was bad enough.
		But at this point, I think we can say that it was controlled.
		It was largely symbolic.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		It was a chicken run.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		It was a chicken run.
unidentified		Yeah.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it was for show.
		Trump did that for show.
		If he can stay out, it's a genius move.
		If he gets sucked back in, he's taking his silly pills again.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Taking his silly pills.
		That's one way to put it.
		Brandon Weickert, thank you so much for being with us today at We The Brandon on X website, WeickertReport.com.
		Keep up the great work, and I'm sure we'll talk to you again soon.
		We'll just wait to see what happens with this Alaska summit.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		I'll see you next time.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		All right, we'll see you next time.
		Brandon Weickert at WeTheBrandon on X. Very, very good stuff.
		And again, I mean, there's just so much news comes out about all this on just a continual basis.
		And I think I want to, I think I want to go to clip number 26 now because, you know what?
		I don't even know if I can because I think it needs to be censored.
		We'll go to it, but if the people are cursing a lot, we'll have to bring it down.
		But basically, you've got this huge class of congressmen going on recess, doing this emergency break because they don't want to vote on Epstein.
		They all get on a plane paid for by the ADL and jet off to Israel where they're all shaking hands and rubbing elbows with the genociders in chief over there.
		And a lot of people are like, that's not a good move.
		They shouldn't do that.
		But on the other hand, this is what it was like if they stayed at home and actually did what they were supposed to, which is go back to their districts and talk to their constituents.
		Yeah, here's what this looked like.
		Clip 26.
unidentified		Do you have a heart?
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Brian Steele, 137.
unidentified		I want to have you address the question that was shouted about the starving children in Gaza.
brandon weichert ▲ ● ▼		Israel has a right to defend itself.
unidentified		I am sorry.
unidentified		It's genocide.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		You believe in genocide?
unidentified		I am so disappointed.
		I am so disappointed in how you represent us.
		I don't think you're the right fit for us anymore.
		Yeah!
		Just say I, stop it!
		You just don't relate to most of us anymore, and you gotta know what's stuck now.
		I think it's time.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, so, you know, if you have a choice between that and go on an all-paid, all-expenses paid trip to Israel, courtesy of APAC, most people chose the AIPAC trip.
		And it just shows you sort of what's happening in the American populace right now.
		That is, you know, far from the first example we've seen of even Republican congressmen going back to their home districts and being shouted down and called genocide supporters by their own constituents because, well, they are and they deserve it.
		So things are changing in America and it ain't looking good for the future of Israel, which means it ain't looking good for America because Israel is pretty desperate and willing to do some pretty outrageous things.
		I understand Trump is live at Kennedy Center.
		We only have a few minutes left in this program, but let's go to Trump, see what he's talking about at the Kennedy Center ahead of the Alaska summit.
donald j trump ▲ ● ▼		They came from Asia.
		They came from South America, Venezuela in particular.
		They were coming in, Trendiaragua, and the toughest people you've ever seen.
		And by the millions, and for the last three months, we had zero, zero, and zero.
		We had zero people come in for three months.
		They respect our country again.
		That's the other thing.
		All over the world, our country is respected again.
		So I also want to thank the chief of staff, Susie Wils, who's fantastic.
unidentified		She's done an incredible job.
donald j trump ▲ ● ▼		And Sergio Gore for the job he's done with personnel.
		Thank you very much, Sergio.
		Fantastic.
		In the coming months, we'll fully renovate the dated and really the entire infrastructure of the building and make the Kennedy Center a crown jewel of American arts and culture once again.
		I think we'll bring it to a higher level than it ever hit.
		Actually, it hit a certain level, but we're going to bring it to a higher level than it ever hit.
		We have the right location, and soon we will be a crime-free area.
		This is going to be a crime-free area, by the way.
		You'll be able to go out.
		People tell me they can't run anymore.
		They're just afraid.
		And they'll be running again.
		We're going to have a crime-free promise.
		It's a big statement because if one thing happens all year, Pam, you better be good because they'll say Trump did not fulfill this.
		One person gets a little injured by somebody.
		They'll say Trump did not fulfill his promise.
		No, we're going to be essentially crime-free.
		This is going to be a beacon.
		And it's going to also serve as an example of what can be done.
		We have to get rid of this cashless bail nonsense.
		If you look at New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, which is so badly run, Los Angeles, they can't get the houses.
		They can't get the people their permits to build their houses.
		They're trying to rebuild the houses from the ridiculous fire that should have never allowed to have taken place.
		They should have had the water coming down from the Pacific Northwest, but they didn't do that.
		But they can't get the permits for the people that want to build their houses.
harrison smith ▲ ● ▼		So that's true.
		I want to thank Lisa.
		I guess helping to honor the first Kennedy Center honor recipients, including Kiss, Sylvester Stallone, George Strait, Gloria Gaynor, and Michael Crawford receiving that honor with Trump there.
		Talking about his policies and how he's moving forward to make a safer America.
		And pointing out that it's the liberals' failures that have basically forced us to do this.
		And we wouldn't have to if they would just uphold the basic law and order and public safety for their constituents.
