The American Journal: Trump Boasts Of “Good” Talks With Iran & Postpones All Military Strikes On Energy Infrastructure, Iranian State-Run Media Denies Claim, Says “Trump Backed Down” - FULL SHOW - 03.23.2026
Tim Tompkins and Rex Jones dissect Trump's alleged Iran deal, dismissing it as market manipulation while warning of cascading oil crises from Strait of Hormuz threats. They condemn influencers like Xavier DeRousseau for trivializing war and criticize ICE airport deployments as incompetent overreach. The hosts accuse the administration of weaponizing sanctions to maintain hegemony, link Lindsey Graham to Epstein conspiracies, and declare Trump's MAGA movement a cult demanding blind loyalty amidst globalist economic collapse. [Automatically generated summary]
SV40, or simian virus 40, reared its ugly head back in 1960 when scientists spotted it lurking in rhesus monkey kidney cell cultures that were being held to whip up polio vaccines.
SV40, a tumor-making machine, has the large T antigen, a molecular wrecking ball that smashes into cellular control systems like p53 and retinoblastoma protein pathways, turning normal cells into rogue cancer factories.
Fast forward to 2025, and messengers from a myriad of professions are shouting from the rooftops about SV40's presence in the COVID vaccines.
This genomic integration, as the scientific literature makes clear, can lead to cancer development, immune system disruption, and more.
The sheer levels of contamination detected, up to 145 times permissible limit in some cases, are extraordinary and far beyond what should be allowed in any medicinal product.
In my work as an oncologist in the UK, I started to see a disturbing trend as early as February 2022.
Patients who had been cancer-free for many years were suddenly relapsing with aggressive explosive cancers shortly after receiving booster doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.
These three advanced cancer patients experienced remission in two cases, complete remission, and in one case, near remission for an extended period of time, years after initiating this fenbendazole protocol.
And none of them received chemo either, right?
So this was with, it was in combination.
A few were with a surgery.
Some did receive a brief dose of radiation.
But in general, this fenbendazole was linked to extraordinarily, you know, accelerated tumor reductions in a pretty short period of time with extended survival outcomes with no evidence of disease.
And, you know, we were doing our show last night, and we usually do like a three-hour broadcast on Sunday, sometimes even four hours, sometimes even longer than that.
And we cut it real early because we wanted to save it for today.
We got a lot of phenomenal clips to go through.
I know you've got a phenomenal deep dive to go through.
Let's tell the audience what we do exactly on the gray area.
This is what I believe in is kind of a radical centrism, not a spin-sitting competition or anything like that, but taking good ideas from the right, taking good ideas from the left, because ultimately you're not a donkey, you're not an elephant, you're a human being.
And we get to make decisions based off the data, based on the facts, based on what's good for our society, not what makes you feel like you're on the best sports team.
So at the end of the day, we realized when we decided to go on air and start talking about things, we had more in common than we actually had in differences.
And the thing is, it's like he says, we have far more in common than we do in difference.
That's true for all Americans.
And the thing that we've been discovering, you know, as people have come and watched our show or become a part of our community and now honored to be a part of the Infowars community formerly and to be on this broadcast here in the morning going forward, like we're finding the best people.
We're finding the best guests.
We're finding the best listeners because people want a positive solutions-based message.
And a lot of the time, it's the fear porn, it's the fear-mongering, it's this, that, or the other thing.
So that's why we do something called deep dives, which you guys are going to start seeing a little bit more, where we kind of go past the headline and we kind of cover the specifics around a particular topic.
So most shows will be like, okay, well, this war, breaking news, this war happened and this situation happened.
You know, even in like the six short months that we've been doing the show, I mean, the world has transformed radically already.
So, the cool thing is getting into it now, we've been able to track events as they happen and also look at causality, which is a thing that a lot of other people don't do.
But, you know, it is awesome to do a little bit of the news blitz coverage.
And that's also something that we're very proud of.
We find the best clips.
We give you the best breaking updates.
We've got a breaking update for you right now.
So, President Blump, President Trump, has announced that we're going to take a pause from hitting the energy infrastructure because we've been negotiating and they're very close to making a deal.
I'm going to go ahead and read you this Trump tweet.
If we can go ahead and get that punched up on screen, this is from Donald J. Trump.
I am pleased to report that the United States of America and the country of Iran have had over the last two days very good and productive conversations regarding a complete and total resolution of our hostilities in the Middle East.
Based on the tenor and tone of these in-depth, detailed, and constructive conversations, which will continue throughout the week, I have instructed the Department of War to postpone any and all military strikes against Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure for a five-day period, subject to the success of the ongoing meetings and discussions.
Thank you for your attention to this matter, President Trump.
And we'll get into that because the Iranians have already responded, according to multiple media sources, and they say they're not having negotiations.
They're not talking.
So it's market manipulation, in my opinion.
And that's what we see with all of this stuff.
I mean, the very existence of places like Kalshi or Polymarket should be illegal.
They're fighting for the existence of their nation.
Whether you agree or disagree with that, ultimately, you're not an Iranian, right?
But us sitting here in America in the lap of luxury, we're like, oh, the gas prices went up.
They're getting bombed, right?
So the priorities of us, you know, having a little bit of pain and wanting that gone because we have a much softer existence versus a nation that's been sanctioned for two decades, it's just, it's not going to work.
Well, this is not very MAGA what you're saying right now because I've been told by the president every day since the conflict started that their military has been destroyed and they've been defeated.
Trump says he's not going to hit the power anymore, but that's a war crime.
You can't use energy as a weapon, civilian energy as a weapon.
The escalation is coming.
And whether that means boots on the ground, whether it means the eventual threat or use of a nuclear weapon, whether that means the targeting of the desalinization plants, which really, this is something crazy because this makes absolutely zero sense at all.
Because at the end of the day, they thought when they went in there, took out the Supreme Leader and all of the cabinet members, they were like, okay, we got him.
They're going to negotiate.
They did not expect this.
At the end of the day, Trump didn't expect him to close the strait.
But at the end of the day, you really think about Iran in itself.
There is a strong sense of nationalism at the end of the day, and they know what they're fighting for.
For Americans, we're like, we don't want any part in this war.
And it's pretty clear across the spectrum, whether you look at the left, the right, except for the neocons, of course, that's just a whole nother story.
The thing that I take away from the Scott Besant clip, the first one that we had there, he's like, yeah, we're going to destroy all the fortifications.
Well, if you can't do it from the air already, if it wasn't already done in the first coming up to be a month of the war, then you're going to have to deploy ground troops.
And we see the 81st airborne.
We see the two Marine expeditionary fleets coming up there that are going to get involved inevitably.
I don't see how this is not a mass casualty event.
And they can say it's great.
Maybe they do take the island, whatever.
Maybe they do reopen the Strait of Hormuz, best case scenario.
But 3,000 Americans dead?
You think about numbers like that.
I mean, I just, this country is not ready for something like that.
It's not an oil depot in the sense of it's not a place they're drilling.
It's a transport hub.
That's where the oil gets loaded.
So by impacting the Iranian ability to put oil out on the global market, I mean, they've admitted they're lifting Iranian and Russian sanctions to try to stabilize the market desperately.
Something that Scott Bassett, the guy in the clip we just played, something that he fought for for years, Russian sanctions, increasing Russian sanctions.
All that's gone now because they knew they messed up.
And then we basically punish India at the same time where we say, well, you're importing Russian oil and we're going to have to do something about that.
And again, it's that knee-jerk reaction to where now we're making enemies because we had no long-term plans.
You can't ask a country to do one thing and then turn back and then punish them for the same action.
And then you got the double whammy on top of that of India before this conflict was going on buying very cheap, discounted, sanctioned Russian oil for like $54 a barrel, getting a discount, saying like, well, we'll get around these U.S. sanctions supply us.
We have the need for energy.
As to now, it's up to paying $94 plus dollars a barrel from Russia because that same deal ain't working no more in the modern environment.
Let's turn to how all of this is impacting consumers.
United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby is now planning, he says, to cut flights and is planning for oil to go as high as $175 a barrel with prices potentially staying above $100 a barrel through 2027.
This is according to him.
All of this could potentially mean higher prices for consumers.
What do you say to Americans who feel they were promised lower costs and now they're getting the opposite?
Kristen, I think the American people understand that in any 50, I'm not going to put a time on it, but let's just pick 50 days of temporary elevated prices.
Prices will come off on the other side for 50 years of not having an Iranian regime with a nuclear weapon.
The American people are beginning to understand, thanks to President Trump, that there is no prosperity without security.
Do you think it's appropriate for the President of the United States to celebrate the death of an American citizen, someone who's a bronze star, Purple Heart recipient, and who served in Vietnam?
Kristen, I was with the president in the green room at Davos, and there was a video playing of what may have been an illegal raid on his home at Mar-a-Largo.
They are going through his wife's wardrobe, and I watched the look in his eye, and I think that neither one of us can understand what has been done to the president and to his family.
Yeah, I think he got to the point where, you know, he had been going through legal battle after legal battle, impeachment after impeachment, and then it gets to a point where you become brittle.
And to be clear, we had always planned for this contingency.
About 140 million barrels are out on the water.
In essence, we are jiu-jitsuing the Iranians.
We are using their own oil against them.
We have a much better line of sight, to be clear, at Treasury.
When this oil goes to, if it goes to Indonesia, if it goes to Japan, if it goes to Korea, we have a much better line of sight and are able to block accounts that the oil goes into.
When it goes into China, it completely gets recycled.
So to be clear, that 14 billion number is grossly overstated.
Anything that is over a certain amount that the American people haven't agreed to is ridiculous at the end of the day, because I got potholes that haven't been fixed.
You know, I don't think it stops until we get angry enough to politically nonviolently do something about it.
I think that's what our show is about, advocating for solutions, because here's what they say.
And this has been the narrative you see like during COVID where they had like the newscast all saying the same thing about you must get the shot, like the exact same script.
They're coming out now, exact same script, short-term pain for long-term gain.
So everything you say, Tim, is not MAGA.
It's incorrect to complain about it, to want to change, to want a government that actually works for you, because you see, it's a short-term pain for a long-term gain, almost like two weeks to stop the spread.
You really have that timer that says, okay, this is the amount of time that it's going to take for the American people to be able to take with that suffering.
You don't have a timer for that.
At the end of the day, people need a solution now.
I come from New York, Connecticut, and Massachusetts.
It's as blue as you can get.
I am African American, as you can see, and 95% of blacks vote for Democrats.
If you messed up so bad during the 2020 era from 2020 to 2024, you know you messed up awful when you have a guy who was blue his entire life move towards the right and vote for Trump in the following election.
Okay.
So at that point, I thought he was going to be the solution.
That's, I just realized that's why me and Tim get along so well is we were both screwed by Trump, right?
That's why we do such a good show.
I mean, if you can get me, someone that was literally campaigning for Trump when I was 15 years old, making videos, going to protests, being here at Infowars, if you can get me to reject this administration and be outraged by it to demand a change, then like, what have you done?
You've come, we were the base.
You know, you're the independent voter that got convinced by the pro-freedom, pro-America message.
And now we have to deal with the Democrats coming back into play.
And at the end of the day, I don't want, you know, the same things that they were doing, pushing transgender and a lot of the wokeness that was happening during that time, deplatforming.
I'm telling you, when he is not president anymore and eventually they're all not president, even though he's been in the media cycle for over a decade, his political career is crazy.
He may be the greatest politician to have ever lived, but there's going to be a time after Trump.
And a lot of people that aren't actually trying to do real news, trying to do real media information, real journalism, they're going to fall by the wayside because it's just a grift.
We believe their ability to do so, but only to endure ballistic missile strikes, drone attacks, petrochemical smoke, all without a reliable means of obtaining logistical support.
The result could be a grinding war of attrition.
They talk about how far away they would be from resupply.
They wanted to be our allies in the 90s, but then tried to join NATO, right?
But when the United States had the ability to take advantage once the Soviet Union broke apart in the 90s, we were like, well, what's the easiest way to get them into capitalism?
There's somebody who said, okay, you need to stick with the program.
Otherwise, you're out.
And so when he talks about these things, he's just trying to position himself to be in his position of power, to have all the financial gains that he gets from being in his position.
All of these different things are just to stay within the ecosystem.
The thing is, Trump has this pathological need to be liked.
And ultimately, he surrounded himself with people that have always hated him the most and people that really love, supported, cared about him from a grassroots level.
I want to come in there because Trump often says this about people.
I've heard him say it about Hegseth numerous times.
He goes, You're straight from central casting, which means like, okay, so it's all an act, it's all a performance, it's all a game, it's all about perception and media perception.
And like, I was watching The Apprentice, you know, like a few months ago, and it's the same exact thing.
He wants to come out of the door and be like, ooh, it's Trump.
I think we look at 2024, and even though he ran as a Democrat initially as an independent, RFK getting about, you know, like 10% of the population, 11% of the population.
I think, and like we talked about last segment on the post-Trump era, I do think we're going to see dark horse candidates, maybe like a Massey, an MTG, maybe like a McConaughey or something like that.
And that's why I think the next guy that comes in 2028 needs to go back to that more presidential, I wouldn't say like too politically correct, but there's just a certain aura that you need to bring to the table.
I spend a lot of time watching channels like Judge Napolitano or Dialogue Works, and they'll have these like 70, 80-year-old professionals that were in the cabinet in the 20th century.
He thought it was okay when Ron Paul got attacked by a vicious leftist or Rand Paul got attacked by a vicious leftist and had his ribs broken, had like a flayed chest, basically.
He's like, I understand why that happened to you.
He like celebrates it.
And these are thugs.
They're because that's who the lobbyists want to work with.
They just want someone that's like dumb, controllable, and proud of it, too.
And so now I want to get into something where we look at all the problems overseas, but we're not focused on the immediate issues that we have on at home.
And one of the main things that everybody's dealing with right now is the whole TSA Department of Homeland Security.
And let me just explain a little bit what's going on with the Department of Homeland Security and give you guys a quick summary.
So, you know, the Department of Homeland Security has been not funded since February 13th through the 14th of this year, right?
And you see those lines, right?
Imagine going to the airport thinking you're going to get on your flight that sails in two hours and you actually are in a four-hour line and you miss your flight.
That would piss me off.
So, I mean, that means TSA is working, but they've been doing it without pay.
And we saw how that went last time.
So now, why DHS is not being funded is because the Republicans and Democrats are in a deadlock over the immigration policy.
It's a little different than last time, right?
So the Democrats don't want to approve DHS funding without higher limits to oversight agencies like ICE because you saw all the stuff with Minnesota, right?
President Trump posted on Truth Social, quote: If the radical left Democrats don't immediately sign an agreement to let our country, in particular our airports, be free and safe again, I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE agents to the airports where they will do security like no one has ever seen before.
Now, in a subsequent post, he said that he instructed ICE agents to be ready by Monday.
And now the president is saying that you, sir, are going to be in charge.
How is that going to work?
Are ICE agents going to move into American airports starting tomorrow, Monday?
And, you know, the ICE agents are assigned at many airports across the country already.
They do a lot of investigation, criminal investigation on smuggling airports.
But, you know, there's, I mean, there's got TSA agents covering exits, you know, people that enter through the exits.
You know, certainly a highly trained ICE law enforcement officer can cover an exit, makes people don't go through those exits entering the airport through the exits.
And stuff like that relieves that TSA officer to go to screening and to reduce those lines.
So wherever we can provide extra security, I don't see an ICE agent looking at an x-ray machine because they're not trained in that.
There are certain parts of security that TSA is doing that we can move them off those jobs and put them into specialized jobs, help move those lines.
I'm not trying to insult you in the audience, but do you not see how ridiculous this is?
They're going to have the police state, the military police people in the airport scanning your bags, patting down your wife, standing outside the airport.
And if you're like, Rex, don't sound my guy.
I have to listen to the show.
He insulted me.
This is the stuff I listened to as a kid when I was like five years old to listen to my dad talk about the police state.
That's what this is.
And you're going to tell me, Tim, that the American voting public is like, I like having ICE at the airport.
Well, and the thing that you need to pay attention to at the very beginning of the conversation, he's like, we're having a meeting about this today and we're implementing tomorrow.
I think the worst part for me is I can see the incompetence on his face, right?
He sits there and he tells you, we're kind of figuring out something right now.
But what it is, is you've got a bunch of people at the top in meetings and just having a conversation and thinking that they know how everything operates.
Let me tell you something real quick.
I know a lot of people probably work a nine-to-five, have worked in a corporation.
I definitely have.
I worked as an engineer.
A lot of the time that goes wrong in a lot of these companies is management gets together.
They think, okay, well, we know exactly how our company is run and they have no idea what the ground level looks like.
So they're like, okay, we're going to move this around.
We're going to move that around and we're going to put this person here.
So let me just cover a little bit of what that is.
So basically what this bill and what they're trying to do with that is it would make it hard for people to who are illegal to actually be able to vote.
Yes, that's documentation, like a passport, like a birth certificate.
And then how the registration changes, new voters would generally show proof to a person before registering instead of easier methods that many states are using now.
And the thing is, is why the Democrats are mad about this is because they say, well, you could block or delay a bunch of Americans from voting because there are people that don't have those documentations in place or they've lost them or they don't, or it's a lot harder for them to get that type of paperwork.
But I mean, you should have your birth certificate.
I want to touch on that at the bottom of the next hour because that's such a phenomenal point there you make.
Here's the thing.
If we don't blow it, we don't stay on air.
You got to go to the alexjonesstore.com.
You got to get the best supplements, the best methylene blue, the best metabolic ingredients, the best longevity ingredients, just the best products in general.
I'm really proud of the things that we've developed.
And now we have some of the classic products back in stock.
If you were one of the original people back in the day on the network that took our phenomenal iodine, we have that back in stock for you.
You want T3 trifecta iodine.
You want the methylene blue.
And let me tell you about two new products right now.
Could we get the power drive bundle up on the screen?
This is something that I collaborated with with Big Lee.
The PowerDrive bundle.
And what those two products are, what those two supplements are, are supplements designed to perfectly work with methylene blue.
You have methyl drive, which has highest quality, high-dose CoQ10 and PQQ to increase mitochondrial biogenesis, to increase ATP, to increase mitochondrial function in conjunction with methylene blue.
And then you've got PowerPlant.
If you miss Superman Vitality, I've got something even better.
Let me tell you about this right now.
I didn't even use any of the super strong LH fimetic herbs to make this, which rise your testosterone really quick, but quickly makes it crash down.
I use the highest quality mineral blend, high-quality boron, high-quality zinc, most bioavailable, efficacious doses combined with Redolia Rosia, also known as Goldenroot, which is literally a Viking adaptogen.
It does kind of the same thing Oshwaganda does, lowers your cortisol, increases your hormones because of that.
Cortisol is fed by cholesterol.
It switches the food source into making your hormones instead of to making the stress hormone.
People don't know, but I'm very conscious about prior to I don't really take supplements because I always had a fear around them that they would be bad.
But, you know, Rex broke it down for me and I saw and I did my own research.
I looked into the ingredients of what were in PowerPlant and essentially came to the conclusion, these are things that your body needs at the end of the day.
And for me, when I started taking it, you know, it took, it took a minute, but then I realized my body just had to get adjusted and it just completely changed.
Like my cognitive function started changing.
I felt like I had more life.
And at the end of the day, you know, you got to look at these things and understand that all of the supplements that these guys are giving to you is keeping the lights on in this place.
But at the same time, they're trying to create that 360 win in which they are giving back to the viewers themselves.
A lot of people have copied Infowars over the years.
But let me tell you right now.
30% off-site-wide, no discount code needed.
Enter to win the Ford Mustang GT500, enter to win the 2025 Ford Raptor.
Every $1 spent, 100 times the entries to win both.
And we've got the iodine 50% off.
You're part of the VIP program.
We really appreciate you.
We really love you.
We're going to be back soon.
But keep in mind, everything on the store right now is discounted, 30% off-site-wide.
If you haven't ever tried the iodine, if you haven't ever tried the methylene blue, and if you're looking for more Superman Vitality, I encourage you to check out PowerPlant and Netflix Drive.
Well, what I'm doing today, really, this was supposed to be, this was a little bit before, set up a couple of weeks ago.
This was before we had this situation with Iran take place last night.
And by the way, they're just not communicating.
When they say, I'm sure they don't mean that, when somebody says, oh, I didn't know you were talking, we were talking last night, and I'm sure they have a lack of communication, which is appropriate considering we blew up, in addition to their Navy, Air Force, every division, their radar, we also blew up all of their anti-aircraft and communications.
So they have no telecommunications.
So there is a lack of, I would imagine, a lack of coordination.
Like I mentioned at the beginning of the show, the deep dive is different than what other people are doing, in which we take a particular topic, something that has to do with something that interacts with you back at home or just a deeper context to show you.
And then oftentimes we present these people to be like, I knew that.
I knew that.
Well, the point is, I learn something new every time we go over the information because we may claim to understand the Cold War, the Petro Dollar, Brett Woods, all these things.
But until you actually go through the minutia of everything that was involved, you can't see the forest for the trees.
And that's where a lot of people are at.
They're like, well, my wallet's empty.
I'm hurting, but I'm just, I'm in the rat race.
I'm working.
I'm in that pattern, like you say.
They don't have that 30,000-foot view, that meta-level argument, the deep dive.
What I want to talk about today is specifically everything that's happening with the oil crisis.
Everyone is paying attention to the gas, but no one's actually paying attention to the supply chain and everything that's going to come and impact the average person back at home.
So let me just walk you guys through a little scenario first because this is a true story.
So last week, a farmer in Arkansas picked up the phone.
He ordered fertilizer for planting season and he called three different dealers and none of them would give him a price, right?
So urea, which is a nitrogen fertilizer, which he spreads on his fields, he puts it on everything.
And that price had jumped $70 per ton in the morning from $640 to $700, right?
So, the dealer stopped quoting because the market is moving too fast to actually commit a number.
So to get into what you're saying, we're having a little bit of technical difficulty here.
Diesel powers the supply chain.
It's involved in freight trucking, rail transport, maritime shipping, agriculture construction, and power generation in general.
So without diesel power, without the ability for these trucks to go to places cheaply to be able to deliver the food and the supplies and resources to people, you're going to see prices go up in retail.
You're going to see prices go up.
Food really go up in food.
And transportation costs in general are going to skyrocket.
So the thing that we need to pay attention to here is like he was talking about.
So diesel moves the economy.
You're talking about semi-trucks delivering things to stores.
You've got freight trains that are hauling grain materials.
You've got tractors and harvesters on farms.
Excavators on cranes that are on construction sites.
Those are also powered with diesels.
And then also the cargo ships that are moving the goods across the oceans.
So like most people drive cars that watch the gas prices, but the diesel is also on the sign.
But unless you're a trucker or you're a guy who's a farmer, you're not paying attention to the diesel prices very often.
And so when diesel spikes, the cost moves across everything.
So let's look at the straight of Harmuz.
Let's pick up that picture real quick and actually show you guys the region that's in question.
And actually, rather than doing that, I'm going to do my screen share if that's working, because this is going to be something that people want to see.
And this is something that we made on the gray area.
And this is something that we're going to be coming out with.
But this is kind of like our global risk command where you can kind of see the sequence of events.
You've got, we can jump across the map and see what happened during Operation Fury start.
But the region that I want to specifically pay attention to is the strait down here.
Everyone knows about the strait.
And this is a 29-mile-wide area in which everything is being choked out.
And I know a lot of people know this already, but it is significant at the end of the day.
You can cut back to me and we can go back to the other stuff here.
So the thing that we need to pay attention to when it comes down to the straight is specifically 20 million barrels of oil come through that region.
And then the world uses about 100 million barrels per day.
And one-fifth of that is squeezed through this single checkpoint.
So, you know, if the pipelines that bypass the straight of harmuous can handle about 2.6 billion barrels, that's the one that's not actually going through the street.
That's only that's 13% of what flows through the strait.
And if the harmuze closes, then nothing else can pass through.
And that is a big problem.
Now, the thing that we need to pay attention to is not just the oil, but the insurance itself.
Let's go to the household cost chart here because this is the thing that people need to pay attention.
These are the numbers.
I love getting into the numbers.
These are the things that you should be paying attention to because this can actually affect you back at home.
And at the end of the day, if you look at the numbers, they seem shocking, but they're also not shocking because we've already been through certain scenarios where we've experienced.
And ultimately, like the clips we played in the first hour of Scott Beset and others talking about the economy, it's like they think that they have a remote control.
They can just turn the TV off, turn it on, turn the TV off, turn it on.
And you have like this super delicate, like saltwater fish tank aquarium.
And he's like, oh, turn it off, turn it off, turn it off, turn it off.
And it's like, well, the fish are going to die and the coral is going to die.
And it's going to be disgusting green monster algae pit.
And they're like, well, you know, we control it so it's okay.
Rent is a little bit of a different situation, but we got to talk about who's profiting because somebody is at the end of the rainbow collecting the big pot of gold.
You're talking about premiums jumping up from $50,000 to $5 million.
And some people are forking up that amount of money.
You got ship owners who set sail.
Fewer ships willing to cross the strait means actually higher rates for some of the ships that are willing to risk it.
And there are some people who are like, well, I want a bag out of this.
So I'll cross the strait.
I'll risk it.
Those guys are making money.
You got shipping lines.
They add surcharges to it.
They basically say, well, we'll keep the distance.
We'll keep the difference even if the costs come lower, but you are going to pay a premium just for sailing in the first place.
We've got ports.
Ports are also charging more.
The detour routes specifically, you've got Cape Town, you've got the Los Palmas.
Those are traffic and there's higher congestions, which means there's higher congestions, means that there's more money that's going to be charged for ships going through these detour routes.
It's just, isn't it crazy?
It's just like everyone's kind of like, well, I'm going to make a little money off the top of this.
You know, it mirrors kind of exactly, again, because it is a very similar conflict, the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
There's this huge narrative, especially in the EU, less so in America, talking about Putin's got the shadow fleet.
He's got the shadow fleet.
He's got the tankers.
And what are it's not like a chaos army coming out of a portal.
It's not a shadow fleet.
It's a Russian insured tanker.
It's not insured by the West.
So, what you're going to see, I think, kind of in conjunction with the Chinese traffic and the Indian traffic through the strait is you're going to see Iran not attack ships that are insured by non-Western people going forward into the future.
You can say that's not happening now.
You can say the conflict's almost over.
We're going to be in this for months and months and months.
Yeah, we're going to be in this for the long haul.
And at the end of the day, let me just wrap this up because let me bring you back to where we started about this farmer in Arkansas who couldn't get fertilizer diesel.
So, again, we saw that the most people saw the headlines, but they were looking at the wrong number.
And so, here's what actually happens in the crisis: you got first the insurance spikes, then you got diesel spikes, then you got fertilizer spikes, then you got food prices, and then months later, actually, construction costs will be going up at some point if this continues, because all of those things are required in order to actually build housing.
Also, to do any repairs on a house, that also requires construction.
So, if you're wondering why your house costs more, why your rent costs more sometimes, some of those costs can actually come from these situations that happened for a while from a while ago.
Everything costs more, everything will cost more, and it will continue to increase over time because we live in inflation, we live with tariffs, and now we live with the war.
And I'm done with this deep dive, but again, this is just a very high level.
You can go very specific and go into all the granular things, but the main thing that you need to understand from all of this is we can ask for 200 billion.
And I'm just trying to point to a higher level thing here: you got to pay attention to, okay, how are they allowing us to be angry at all these other things, except for the thing that's actually affecting you back at home?
Why would just contribute to the rot of the system?
I want to close things out here with the plug.
We got a plug to stay on air.
I want you to keep in mind, like I said last time, the trifecta iodine T3 trifecta iodine is back on the alexjonesstore.com.
This is a phenomenal product.
If you are a VIP, it's half off, 30% off for everybody else.
We've always done budget premium here.
It's something that I'm proud of.
It's something I've incorporated into my own supplement stores, my own business.
I'm a manufacturer.
I'm a shipper.
I've worked in this industry all of my life.
I know exactly how much things cost.
And let me tell you right now, you're not getting a better deal.
You're not getting a better bang for your buck than anywhere at the alexjonesstore.com.

So keep in mind, every time you get something, you might end up on the show.
And I've met a lot of people that come here to be on the show.
They get to drive around the car, hang out with Alex and the crew, really have him on the show, have a great time.
This is about, like Tim said, creating a 360 win for you and us, keeping us on air, keeping you empowered with the best products, the best vitamins and minerals, the best supplements in the entire world.
And I make that claim right now because I know it's true.
I'm proud of it.
This is why I do what I do for a living.
I could never do anything else because I love it so much.
You need, you want high-quality products from the AlexJonesStore.com.

Methylene blue.
It's that magical time of the morning, whether you're getting to work, whether you're getting that workout in, having that coffee, having that breakfast.
Welcome back or welcome to the show, the American Journal X-Gray Area, Rex Jones, Tim Tompkins.
We just concluded a phenomenal deep dive where we went through the information.
We talked about diesel price increases, supply chain price increases.
We broke it down.
We laid down the law.
No one else presents that very basic, very simple information because they don't want you, the voter, to be informed.
And at the end of the day, if there's anything that we can leave in terms of value for the listeners, it is specifically just giving you the numbers and giving you the context.
And we're going to be doing more of these deep dives, by the way.
We're going to be covering a lot of different things.
Tomorrow, I want to cover about the $200 billion in all of the audience that we failed.
You know, so there's a lot of things to cover and there's just so much.
And as the situation develops, we will be monitoring it.
We'll be monitoring the situation, causality, and things breaking on the ground.
I want to get into some more topical stuff because we covered the Misfit Patriot video last night where he laughs in people's faces about the gas prices.
I tweeted about it.
It went viral.
It got like 150k hits, like 5k likes.
I tweeted about it again, the exact same video, because I just like, I keep coming back to this train wreck.
I mean, and these people that have this position where everything you just laid out, everything you just broke down, everything you just talked about, they just laugh at it.
And they like, it doesn't affect me.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter to me.
And these people think they're still going to have jobs in media after this is developed, you know, for a couple of months.
Yeah, there's nothing funny about it at the end of the day.
I mean, it's just because you're not in the situation or you probably don't have somebody close to you that's experiencing that because I bet you he wouldn't be doing that if that was his mother.
And the thing is, is about the gas prices themselves.
Like, I'm not kidding.
Like, even as just the regular average American, it doesn't feel good to see your gas go up an entire dollar and then know that that fifty, it might only cost you $30 extra or $20 extra, but imagine how many times you actually have to go and fill your tank up.
Some people, specifically even in California, they can't afford to live close to the job.
Some people I'm seeing are commuting an hour and a half to work.
Do you understand an hour and a half commute equates to you having to fill your tank up at least like every other day?
Yeah, if we can reference the Google Doc really quick, because this is really crazy, and this is a more common position than you'd think.
These people are proud of wanting to destroy a nation of 92 million people.
I addressed another clip of people criticizing my dad and others that are anti-war going, well, they don't want Iran to be destroyed.
Do you think it's good for the world for an entire country to be destroyed?
Do you think it's good for the, like that, when they blew up the oil depot, they created a toxic rain cloud that went over 10 million people and is going to go over two subcontinents?
It's extremely unlikely, but you know, as there are more radicals and extremists, and as those radicals and extremists tend to hang out at Mar-a-Lago in the White House now talking about the biblical apocalypse and the third temple and all of that, I mean, we get closer to this reality.
So polymarket odds are saying that we're going to war with Iran very soon.
So my message to the regime is do not get beside yourselves.
I know y'all see the sassy man epidemic happening in America, but don't be fooled.
We still have plenty of Republican men ready to come through with all the smoke.
Google Florida man and any date.
That's exactly who we're having on your musty behinds.
And the gag is, we're so advanced now that we could send our weakest links like white dudes for Harris, and they can still control the drone to mutilate everything y'all got going on.
We said we weren't going to take it as far as we did in Japan when we basically dropped two sons in them, but I'm not opposed to running that back.
Y'all will really feel the impact of F-A-F-O-ing, so please keep it cute.
If he walked in Gaza or he was in one of these like war-torn countries, he is not going to have this position.
I can't stand people like this.
It's like, do you not understand how good we have it as Americans that we are completely far away from all of the conflicts that happen all across the world?
You know, we have hedged ourselves against any sort of missile coming over our heads.
Like, we don't even know what it feels like.
I was walking yesterday.
I'm watching the sunset.
I'm watching kids play.
Like, not everybody gets that.
And then you've got crazy, you know, I don't even know.
The IDF took him in and they took him to that aid depot site where they never distributed the aid.
It was literally just a filming center for people.
They had all these influencers wearing like plate carrier body armor without the body armor actually in it, waddling around talking about like, yeah, all the foods here.
They're not starving.
All the foods here went on record.
Even if you look at the lowest casualty estimates, there's been mass starvation in here.
No, I was actually about to go to the sympathetic part because it's very easy for us to make a comment from the outside, but we have no idea what conversations you would have behind closed doors.
But we're living in an era now where someone like Dan Bongino, who did a show for decades, I literally, I watched Dan Bongino host the fourth hour for years.
I watched Dan Bongino Info Wars in 2012, and he's reduced to this.
And at the end of the day, like, again, maybe it's you got to get a guy who has like no family, no attachment to anything, doesn't care about anything.
Because what I'm thinking about is like, okay, even if you're a person who's like, you made the furry analogy, it's like, well, they've got other things to hurt you.
And you think about during Trump's first term, it was around somewhere between 17 and 19 trillion, and the number has just gone up and up and up and up.
There are so many off-ramps.
There are so many points where we could have just stopped this as a country or at least slowed it down.
But we continue to use our economic and military power as a sledgehammer around the world, particularly Biden and Trump.
Biden by weaponizing Swift, Trump by weaponizing the tariffs.
And now the new war, the new conflict, they started new wars.
Biden started Ukraine by giving them the weapons and doing the things that caused Russia to initially invade.
And then Trump has now caused the initial Israel-Iran war because we aided in the strikes.
So we're living in a world now where there is no running away from this temp.
It's the have-nots and have-yach-that's the that's the name of the game these days.
And the wealth gap and the disparity is getting wider and wider and wider and wider.
And it all started in the 80s with Reaganomics.
We started allowing people to, you know, instead of stocks, instead of companies investing in their corporations and the people that are creating the production, they're like, okay, well, we can go and buy our own stock back.
And all of the incentive has gone towards, you know, the people who are at the very top.
And the average CEO makes 400 times more than the average worker.
I'm sorry.
I apologize for every single person, whoever's out there that's struggling or going through something right now.
I don't have any words to describe.
You know, you've got a guy like Kevin O'Leary that's up there blinged out.
It doesn't even look good for one.
He's just, it's just a charade at the end of the day.
What happens when the people at home who are on TikTok watching Instagram reels or whatever, the people that like watching the Oscars or red carpet events or whatever the hell this thing is that he's at?
What happens when those people can't afford food?
What happens when these people can't afford gasoline?
What happens when these people can't afford to take care of their children and their children might starve?
They're going to look at all the people that are blinged out.
They're going to look at all people with the money.
And, you know, just like a gang of robbers or home invaders on Instagram, like, oh, you know, this guy looks like he's got a nice car, got a nice watch.
We're going to break in there.
We're going to beat up his girlfriend.
We're going to take everything he's got.
Just like that.
I'm not advocating for it.
This is the same argument with all these people that get bunkers.
Well, you know, in the post-apocalyptic world in Minecraft, in a theoretical scenario, people are going to dump gasoline down the air intake.
And the only reason why we haven't done that, Rex, is because we haven't felt the pain long enough in a sustained way where you had a lot of people losing their jobs and droves and droves and droves.
So does it have to get worse in order for us to actually speak out and do something about this?
I really hope that doesn't have to be the equation here.
And for me, I've been selling things online for five years.
I just, after 2024, after trying harder, doing more ads, doing more campaigns, the return on investment just isn't there because people don't have the money.
And if people that are running small businesses are dealing with this on the ground, if farmers are dealing with this on the ground, if people go into their jobs, seeing the inflation go up, the money doesn't go as far, you're going to have a societal collapse eventually.
And like that's always been something we've talked about on this network on InfoWars, really 30 years ago.
I've got to remember to tell you guys about the phenomenal products that we've got available at the AlexJuneStore.com because here's the thing.
If we don't plug, we don't stay on air.
And it's vital to the safety of the operation that I do so.
I want to tell you about PowerPlant.
I want to tell you about Methyl Drive.
I want to tell you about how they pair perfectly with Methylene Blue.
So keep in mind, if you've ever used Superman Vitality in the past, PowerPlant is basically the upgrade to that formula.
I didn't even use a lot of the traditional testosterone boosters to do it.
We did a safer formula, a formula that's really consistent.
You can take it long term without having to cycle off of it.
It's a high-quality mineral blend.
Everything your body needs to support optimum energy and hormone health, free testosterone, testosterone increases, combined with the powerful cordyceps mushroom.
And let me cue you in on something here.
A lot of times when people sell these mushroom coffees or these mushroom blends, what they'll do is they'll throw 10 different mushrooms in there and add a sub-efficacious dose, like 50 or 100 milligrams.
300 milligrams, Radolia Rosia, Golden Root, 300 milligrams cordyceps extract.
I believe that's a four to one or eight to one extract as well.
These are the same doses that they're used in studies.
Keep in mind, Redolia Rosia, you may not have heard of that before.
That is literally the herb, the root, the adaptogen that all the other adaptogens come from.
The Soviets studied this for their athletes.
They found that increased energy, increased dopamine, increased stress tolerance, resilience, and lowered cortisol.
And now we have that same product combined with cordyceps, combined with that mineral blend for you, the audience, for anyone looking for that athletic strength, energy, vitality boost power plant pairs perfectly with methylene blue for that.
And we've got methyl drive.
If you're a little older, if you're a little more interested in preserving your cells, making sure your cells stay healthy over time, making sure your mitochondria, the very powerhouse of the cell, stays activated and stays healthy, you're going to want the PQQ and CoQ10 and magnesium and methylation ingredients inside of ultimate methyl drive.
And let me tell you, when you take these together, it's an incredible effect.
You have reduced oxidative stress, you have increased energy, increased vitality, really increased mental stamina because a lot of these things have rapid uptake to the brain as well, especially the golden root.
Let me tell you, it's like being activated.
It's like you're on go mode, go time all the time.
But you take this in conjunction with the methylene blue.
I have had people tell me they've had the most incredible results from doing that.
So, these people that design these formulas, kind of like the bargain bin, bargain barrel formulas, like a typical pre-workout or energy drink or whatever, they're throwing the crummy ingredients that they know are going to give you that boost at a cost.
What I did is just give you everything your body already needs, combined with the two top-rated adaptogenic herbs for increasing ATP and increasing brain function.
And you were like, take a look at the back of the ingredients.
And I'm looking at it.
I don't even know half of the things that I'm saying.
And I'm like, okay, well, I'm justifying putting this in my body, and they're not even natural ingredients that my body actually needs.
And then I looked at the ingredients, compared them to something like PowerPlant.
I'm like, this is a no-brainer.
Why am I being critical of something that I, that I'm, I'm just sitting there like, oh, well, I don't want to put this in my body, but I'm putting this red bull in my body.
And again, I don't want to hear from people calling me a Qatari agent.
Is the chairman of the Joint Chiefs a Qatari agent?
Is Eric Prince a Qatari agent?
Is Tulsi Gabbers a Qatari agent?
Are things going the way we said they would go or the way you said they would go?
All you know what you call them, and they're like, I'm on radio stations, so I say their names that are just influencers online, I don't know who they are.
But it's the cat turd type people.
Like, if you question anything Trump does, you're a traitor.
You're bad.
No, I'm blocking the bad interest, trying to get him off target.
I am engaging as a constituent, the person I put in to carry out the mission we had, not the mission you have cooked up when you're going to support Lindsey Graham getting our president under his control.
I'd like it to Trump's our wife, the American people's wife.
We're married to him politically.
And then we catch somebody taking him away and taking him off to their house.
And Trump's got his legs up behind his ears and Lindsey Graham's in there with the Netanyahu double teaming him.
And we're coming over to the house saying, hey, I'll let it pass on this.
We'll go to counseling or we're into divorce.
The cat turned pulling on my shoulder went, hey, let them gangbang Trump and us at the same time.
And I'm watching Lindsey Graham and Netanyahu, you know, double team Trump.
I mean, what I'm going to say is going to be incredibly delusional and it won't happen.
What would happen is he would need to agree to some or most of the Iranian demands, actually do a show of goodwill and then work with Russia and China to build a new multipolar world.
But I mean, this is, guys, if we just look at the macroeconomics, it's all about China and Russia at the end of the day.
Iran is just a secondary byproduct.
What we have been doing lately in America, and specifically what I see with Trump's strategy is, is they're trying to cut China's influence on the rest of the world.
We started with Venezuela.
Now we're going for Cuba.
And Cuba is one of those things where they're about to do a regime change.
We've cut off all of the oil.
We've cut off all the access in the Western Hemisphere for them.
I mean, Mexico started trying to send them like life care oil in order to help.
And basically, Trump was like, I'm going to tariff you.
You are on the same wavelength as me because the art of war talks about this specifically in terms of you're playing the long game.
And the thing about our country is we go in four to eight year sprints.
Xi Jinping is going to be there for probably the next 10, 20, pretty much until he dies at this point, right?
So he's able to make a decision all the way back when he first gets into power and play this game out for 20, 40, 50 years potentially and already have every single chess piece in play.
And then meanwhile, he's going to watch each president of America come in and take away the thing that the other president did, or we don't like this.
And it's just constant back and forth.
And the country cannot take this constant back and forth.
Do you know how many times you look at our laws and the administrations, they put in something in place and the next president's just like, yeah, we don't need that.
We don't need that.
We don't need that.
And they don't think about everything that happens at the end of the day.
What you just described, what Tim just described is why we have the deep state because the presidents may leave every four to eight years, but the deep state stays.
And that's why the deep state is essential for the empire.
You do not get the empire without the deep state because for this level of planning, you have to have people that always stay in black.
And everything that they need to do in order to get that power or that influence, they will do regardless of what country is involved.
Do you know they're probably like there's Israelis and Iranians and Saudis all in a room, just at the higher levels, just laughing in the back room.
You know, all these peasants are just arguing with each other and we're just making big business deals at the end of the day.
I guarantee you those conversations happen because I have conversations with people who are in those types of rooms and they say race and religion and country does not matter to these people.
But at the end of the day, you have now allowed people to be used to this level of debt and things that are in life.
And we're still not fixing the systems themselves.
We don't have any financial literacy programs that are widespread that are teaching kids at a young age.
Because if you teach people how to use money, then we won't be spending.
And America is an economy that relies on consumer spending and they want you to continue to spend money.
That's why I think we need to start doing these things from going on forward is also having segments where we talk about financial literacy and things that you can do to protect yourself at home because that is critical.
I think this administration has committed war crimes.
If you want to tell me that I'm wrong, if you want to tell me that I'm not MAGA, if you want to tell me that my opinion doesn't matter because, hey, I voted for a guy because I thought he would do things.
He didn't do the things.
I'm not allowed to criticize him somehow because you still like him.
You are in a cult.
You are on Lindsey Graham's team.
Ask yourself, do you want to be on Lady Lindsey's team?
Oh, you know, you look at the psychology of the people that are in the Epstein files and you look at the things that they're willing to do behind closed doors.
And then those same people are in positions of power and they're the ones that steer all of the macro level arguments, all the macro level decisions that have impacts on the regular person.
And, you know, it's just, it's too big.
The whole system is just too big to do something about it.
And I'm just trying to figure out, okay, well, when do we fix the system, Rex?
And then on the opposite side, you know, for me to have a standpoint where I'm like, I don't think we should be teaching kids how to change their genitalia at the age of like seven.
Like, and I'll have conversations with people back home or in the East Coast and they'll be like, or even in California and they'll be like, oh, you're just, you're just one of the conservatives.
And I think there are smart political operators who are realizing the time is now to run an independent or Republican or Democrat, an independent leaning campaign, kind of like a Kennedy or like a fishback or like whatever you want to point to.
There is real social mobility for people that want to do that.
You can build a following of people because as long as you talk about the struggle of the average man, the average man is going to hear you.
And when Trump gets up there and talks about transgender for everybody, well, I'm sorry, that farmer in your example who can't afford the fertilizer.
Ending transgender for everybody doesn't do a damn thing.
Well, here's the fundamental problem with politics.
And I just had this thought and I'm thinking about it now.
It is a club almost because in order to have the best political campaign and have the most outreach and have airtime and have the best podcast and have yourself on news, it requires capital.
And, you know, somebody who's grassroots that actually knows what it feels like to be the average American that would actually represent the things that we need doesn't have the resources to actually back it up.
And then you get, you know, you got Byron Donalds, who's got the backing of the entire administration plus a lot of the incumbents.
And then you got a fishback who clearly doesn't have as much funding to actually fight back.
Right.
So I look at it this way.
I'm like, well, we've got to create scenarios or situations where we allow, maybe there's a program of some sort where we allow candidates who actually have some merit, but also have the ability to speak the truth.
Because if it was a plan, even playing field, then it becomes specifically on, okay, like, what are your values?
What are your merits?
What are your values?
What do you believe for?
What do you stand for?
That is the critical thing here to pay attention to because just because you have a billion dollars to spend and more people know right now, the way elections work is a lot of people don't know who their candidates are.
Yeah, it's got to be a level playing field, both short and long term.
Short term, how we make that happen is we support the grassroots candidates.
We support the people on the ground because if someone's meeting everyone and shaking their hand, they care more about the person that's just doing the big super PAC ad buys.
And we see that everywhere.
I mean, look at Trump, right?
Look at 2024.
Well, you got to fight against the Democrat.
That's why I got to take the Miriam Adelson money.
I don't want anybody giving the person that's going to be the president 200 million.
It's the best service money can buy, donating to a politician if you can afford it, especially because the amount of money it costs them to sell out is basically a drop in the bucket for you if you have a billion-plus dollar net worth.
So we sit here as citizens trying to affect change in our government, wanting things to get better for the civilian population, wanting things for our children and our grandchildren.
And, you know, maybe you get it, maybe you don't.
We'll promise it to you every election, but ultimately we work for the special interests.
They're the people that pay us as politicians.
You get what you get, sucks to suck.
We reject that.
We're here promoting freedom and liberty in a political awakening and a consciousness, but we as a people stand up, stand up and say, we want our country to work for us.
There's no way they're going all out, launching everything.
If this is a war of attrition and they need to make sure that they last as long as possible, even sporadic hits where they land, just like they flattened that region in southern Israel.
I'm blanking out on the name, but where 100 people, they had 100 casualties, right?
Third thing they did is they fired an intercontinental ballistic missiles 4,000 kilometers right into Diego Garcia, the American British base.
They can reach now with these ballistic missiles everywhere in Europe, almost everywhere in Europe.
I've been warning that for years.
The fourth thing that they did is that they shut down the important maritime strait of Hormuz, trying to blackmail the world with oil terror blackmail.
Four things that they're doing in 48 hours.
And I asked the leaders of the world, the leaders of the free world, the leaders of the moderate states, what more are you waiting for?
President Trump has correctly said that Israel, the United States, and Israel in this great partnership, we're fighting the battle not only for ourselves, but for all of you.
And he asked a simple question, where are you?
And it's time to heed President Trump's call, his leadership, and his vision, not merely for our sake, but for your sake.
And look, all of this conflict with Israel, Iran, the Middle East, all of it comes back to the United States and the Western societies, right?
You go all the way back to 1948 and 1947 when the UN had control over that region, specifically Britain was in control of that region after they took it from the Ottoman Empire.
They said, well, we're just going to arbitrarily cut up this region.
And then also, you know, after Europe and World War II happened, the Jews had nowhere to go.
And they basically said, well, we'll just allow them to come here and basically create a state here, but then we'll also carve it up in a specific way.
And of course, the Muslims in that area were like, we're not going to agree to this.
And that's the problem.
Instead of just fixing it and finding a resolution, what did the UN do and Britain?
They stepped away.
They stepped away and they said, well, you two guys figure it out.
And that's the worst equation because you've got here people who have been there for a while.
And then you have on this other side, people who have been genocided for a while.
And they're both angry.
They're both upset and they're looking for some sense of security.
So you allow them to kick off this negative feedback loop in which like each person is going to fight for their own interest.
And then Israel ended up carving out more than it should have.
They were wrong for that.
But at the end of the day, it was Britain and the UN that said, well, we'll make this a place for you.
But even outside of Israel, and I'm not going to take this trail too far out, it's Israel.
You look at the rest of the world and you look at places in Africa and the civil wars and the conflicts that they have.
There has always been somebody at the end of the rainbow called the colonialism that happened with the Western powers, specifically Britain and Europe and all of that stuff.
What he's referring to is there is a situation that was happening in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
There has been a region in the eastern part of that region in which a bunch of militant states have basically carved out their own little checkpoints in which there's just conflicts all the time.
We're talking about like hundreds of them, right?
But that region is specifically important because of the commodities that are located there.
You've got gold, you've got rubber, you've got some, yeah, you've got some of the most precious areas.
So, you know, that's the war that Trump was touting.
He was like, oh, I stopped seven wars.
This is one of the ones that he's saying.
But really, what the United States did was, well, we're going to work with the government and the militants to protect the gold because the gold is the most important thing.
And we're going to go in there and we're going to.
They're afraid of, okay, if we stop trying to take control and be in power, well, who's going to step in and fill that power vacuum?
Because at this point, we've set off an imbalance and a feedback loop in which I don't know if China just says, well, we'll just cooperate and we'll keep our power here.
No, if the United States decides, okay, we're not going to do anything, it allows China to come up.
It's all the nations in the world having their own sovereignty, working for their own people instead of working for these state or these transnational capital interests.
And the more information that you have, the more knowledge you have, the better things you're able to do to actually change your life.
And that's the biggest thing.
If we can give you anything from each episode where you just take one thing and you're able to implement in your life or you're able to look at it from a different perspective.
You deserve informed consent to the society that you live in, to the world that you live in, really.
And these people's job, just like with the COVID vaccine, they want to give you something.
They want to give you a situation you have to live in, and they want to give you no knowledge of how you ended up there.
We totally reject that.
That's what our show is about.
That's why we do the gray area.
We're about empowering the people.
It's all about power to the people.
Let's play clip 14, which is the protesters against Netanyahu in Israel.
You got to give people credit, man.
You got to give people credit.
This is good stuff.
We're going to go ahead and play this.
unidentified
We are here again, day after day, to protest against the war, against the war in Iran, against the war in Lebanon, against the war in Gaza and in the West Bank.
We understand that this is a misleading war because it will bring no one safety.
It will bring no one a better life.
It will just cause more destruction and more death.
And we demand to stop this forever war because the people in the entire Middle East, they deserve better.
We are here, hundreds of people.
Yesterday we were in dozens.
And this is our only way to show our leadership.
Netanyahu and Bengal and Smotage and also President Trump that we do not believe a war they're saying.
They're not fighting for the people in Iran.
They're not fighting for the people of Lebanon.
And they most certainly not fighting for the people in Israel.
And, you know, the things that they were doing in the West Bank, like the West Bank could have been a two-state, but then when they started doing the settlements, and that was something that Bibi talked about is specifically, you've ever seen that video of him talking about what he wanted to do to the Palestinian people.
I got to find that clip.
But basically, he like gets secretly recorded and he's talking about a lot of things.
And he does not like the Palestinian people.
So a lot of this stuff is old-rooted ideologies.
And they purposely were putting these settlements in the West Bank.
And it was causing issues, right?
Because if you're saying this is a region for the Palestinian people, it needs to be for the Palestinian people.
They did the thing where they withdrew all the Israelis from the Gaza Strip.
But the problem with Gaza is, well, the West Bank did it right where they had people that weren't extremists that were in power.
The problem was when they went to go vote in Gaza, you had Hamas that actually won legitimately.
And that's why Israel had a problem because Hamas clearly has a, you should see it.
But I mean, Netanyahu said that all of two, who funded Hamas, who created this organization.
At the end of the day, I think Israel as a state is going to, in some form, at least, cease to exist because of Netanyahu, because of what he's done, because of this war and the other economic factors.
I mean, if they hit their desalinization plans, if they keep getting bombed for months and months and months, Israel already had a brain drain.
They lost a ton of people in the 12-day war.
People moved away.
They said, we don't want to deal with this.
So ultimately, even if you're successful, you're going to rule over the ashes of whatever empire you're trying to build anyway.
And with the forced mobilization of troops, we talked about this as well with our guest when he came on the show.
And the thing that I hope that people can take away also from this is don't throw the baby out with the bathwater in this situation to where you lump in every single person who's Jewish or Israeli because that's also an issue too.
It's like for me, you know, I know that African Americans commit a majority of the crimes here in America, but that's only 20% of the population or 10% of the population.
It's five.
You're right.
It is 5%.
The 95% like me don't actually believe in those things and don't practice that.
I'm educated.
I've spent my time putting in the work, trying to contribute to society.
Yeah, see, you know, here's the problem with what he just said there.
He's trying to pull Europe into it, but Europe has nothing to do with this.
Like, when I say nothing to do, like Iranian, Iran does not have personal beef with Europe that they would need to like launch a missile at Rome or something like that while somebody's vacationing.
No, it's purely, it's very clear.
They're attacking the Gulf states because that's where the U.S. bases are specifically, and they're attacking Israel.
Those are the two things that they're focused on.
For you to try to think that, like, okay, that's a propaganda move right there where he's trying to incite people from Europe to actually start coming into this conflict.
This guy's five stories underground 95% of the time.
He might slink out like the ninja turtles like Master Splinter, come out of the storm drain and be like, or like It the Clown would be a better example.
Be like, oh, well, you know, they almost almost killed civilians.
We've got a lot of things going on where we give information like this and we do it for the love of the game.
So if you guys want to give us a follow, that's the only support we're looking for at the end of the day because it really just gives us fuel to keep going.
