The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) has historically lost mass, significantly contributing to sea-level rise, with intensified losses in West Antarctica and parts of East Antarctica, particularly from 2011–2020. However, between 2021 and 2023, driven by anomalous precipitation, the AIS experienced a record-breaking mass gain, even reversing trends in critical glacier basins like Totten, Moscow, Denman, and Vincennes Bay. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether all this hullaballoo about climate change and melting ice caps may be so much hot air. Plus segments on Israeli police beating up Hasidic Jews in Jerusalem for protesting the Gaza genocide, Donald Trump signing a ban on gain of function research and former congressman and presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich discussing the condescendingly warmongering ways of Arkansas senator Tom Cotton.

There isn't a thing that they haven't lied about in my lifetime, Vietnam.
So he found newspaper articles from like 60, 70 years ago, and he's quoting them.
He said, it was noted by climatologists that the Earth began a cooling period about the 15th century.
It was not until about 1890 that the Earth warmed up significantly.
And during a period of little more than 50 years until about 1945, crops became more abundant and the world's population more than doubled.
After about 1949, the cooling was noticeable again.
Alexander noted that the total drop since the 1940s has been about 2.7 degrees.
So why do I show you this?
Well, there's a new report.
Colin Rugg caught this.
Antarctica reverses trend and gains ice for the first time in decades, according to a new study published by the Science China Earth Sciences.
Researchers say from 2021 to 2023, the Antarctic ice sheet saw a record-breaking mass gain.
Record-breaking mass gain of ice in Antarctica.
So what this tells me is their models are all wrong.
Oh, by the way, climate change is all based on models.
So they don't know.
They didn't predict.
Nobody predicted this.
So how do they, how can you believe their predictions going forward?
It's all based on models.
And there's a thing called ClimateGate.
Whatever you do, don't look into what that was.
Don't ever look into it.
So research, so it's Tungji University.
I think that how you say that?
Where?
Yeah, Tungji University researchers say satellite gravimetry data show that from 2011 to 2020, the Arctic sheet lost 142 gigatons of ice per year.
That trend flipped.
It then flipped.
Why what?
How could that possibly be?
Things are getting warmer, I'm told.
It's hotter.
Every year is the hottest one on record.
Yeah, but there's more plants than ever.
There's more plants than ever right now.
Because of the increase in carbon in the atmosphere, that also means there's more plants, which also means, don't tell anybody, there's more oxygen.
The Earth is way greener than it was 20 years ago.
Did you know that?
By about the size of the United States, that's how much more greenery there is on the planet because there's more carbon in the air.
The trend flipped between 2021 and 2023 when the ice sheet allegedly gained about 108 gigatons of ice per year.
Most of the gains are in East Antarctica.
Scientists say much of the gains are linked to participation patterns, which could be temporary.
Well, you know what, Jimmy?
Do the jokes or no?
Yeah, wow.
It looks like blotting out the sun in the UK does help.
I stand corrected.
We suddenly get this great news if they blotted out the sun.
Yeah.
So Antarctica is actually increasing its mass of ice.
Are you trying to tell me that all the leading bow tie scientists were not only wrong, but they were identically wrong?
Well, as long as they were only identically mistaken and not identically paid off, then I guess we can forgive them.
They were identically wrong.
So here's what we're talking about.
I went and got this article.
Antarctica ice sheet records surprising mass gain after a decade of accelerated loss.
So here it, oh, we're losing, losing, all of a sudden, boom.
Abrupt gain, abrupt gain.
Why?
Oh.
Well, I thought there's more carbon in the air.
Yeah, there is.
I thought the place was like, well, we don't know what.
I guess Greta Thunberg should have went to school.
So I've been saying for a while now that the Earth has been getting cooler.
And by that, I mean it's more popular, able to talk with women and not be awkward.
A comprehensive news study reveals that the Antarctic ice sheet experienced unexpected mass gains between 2021 and 2023.
Three, temporarily reversing a two-decade trend of accelerating ice loss that has been contributing significantly to global sea level rise.
Isn't it funny that they all say that global sea levels rising, yet John Kerry, the people who tell me about it, keep buying beachfront property.
Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Al Gore, Barack Obama bought two beachside properties.
Same thing with John Kerry.
This remarkable shift, it's a remarkable shift, comes after analysis of 22 years of satellite gravitational data showing pronounced mass loss acceleration in several critical East Antarctica glacier basins.
That's my whole band.
And don't, by the way, don't come at me with that stuff explaining that it's because of the chemtrails because it happened way before they showed up.
Bill Gates has as much to do with saving humanity as your golden retriever has to do with guarding your leftovers at the table.
Okay.
He's a devil's flaccid dick in a sweater.
That's what Bill Gates is.
Well, if it did help, wouldn't they be saying how their great idea has been celebrating Bill Gates with his Nobel Prize for making the ice come back?
Researchers from the Tungi University, led by Dr. Well Wang, I wish my name was Wang, and Professor Young Song Shen have documented these dramatic fluctuations using data from the GRACE Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment satellites mission.
Their findings published in Science, China, Earth Sciences, Science, Science, China, INET, Science, provide crucial insights into science, China, sciences, Chinese Antarctica changing.
So the study identifies three distinct periods of Antarctic ice mass behavior over the last two decades.
And if you're wondering, I say decade because it's funnier than saying decade.
2002 to 2010, they had a moderate ice loss.
2011 to 2020, nearly doubled the rate of ice loss.
And then from 2021 to 2023, surprising, complete reversal with mass gain of ice, 107 gigatons per year, offsetting the global sea level rise by, I don't know, whatever that is.
Obama's house is saved.
Thank God.
Let me summarize the findings for you.
Climate change is crap, and nobody knew what they were talking about.
How does that help?
Does that help?
Wow.
Keep your mask on, though.
Keep your mask on.
The recent mass gains appear driven by anomalous precipitation accumulation across the country.
It's anomalous.
What?
You mean like, yeah, we, you mean, so you can't keep looking at climate as if it's weather.
That's the mistake they're making.
You have to look at it.
It's why they think they can tell you anything about it.
That's what's anomalous.
Right.
Right.
So they're looking at, well, it's anomalous.
You mean anomalous like in the history of the world of Earth?
No, we didn't go back that far.
How far did you go back?
Well, we went back to 1890.
That's what we mean by anomalous.
So you didn't go back.
You went back a little over 100 years.
You know, the Earth is what, it's 6 billion years old or 4 billion years old?
You didn't go back 1,000 years or 10,000 years or 100,000 years.
You didn't go back a million years.
You didn't go back 10 million years.
You didn't go back 100 million years.
You didn't go back a billion years.
But you implied they did.
You went back a little over 100 years.
That's what you did.
You went back a little over 100 years.
And that's why you call it anomalous?
Well, what if you took the Earth's history of weather or climate as a whole?
Would it still be anomalous?
Because for the majority of life on this freaking planet, there has not been polar ice caps.
Did you know that?
Yeah.
Okay, go ahead.
What'd you want to say?
Well, what they were saying was the reason they were only going back that far was that's when we started having combustion engines.
Yes.
So that was a justification for it.
But I mean, you know, there's more ice now.
So like, what you just wasted everybody's time with that?
So, and by the way, they said this, remember they were telling us that the barrier reefs, the coral reefs are all good.
They're going to be dead in five years.
There's more than ever.
And they don't know why.
There's plenty of oil, too, by the way.
I think there's always been.
It's the second most plentiful fluid on the earth besides water.
Did you know that?
I did not know that.
It was marketing.
I thought it was lube at a Diddy party.
Come on, am I right?
I thought it was my cereal.
So here, so the recent mass gain appears to be driven by anomalous precipitation accumulation.
Despite this, though, they're still sticking with their story.
Despite this, they're still sticking.
Even though every prediction they ever made and nobody saw this coming and they all got it wrong exactly correct, exactly similar.
Despite this short-term reversal, the researchers emphasize that Antarctica's contribution to global mean sea level rise peaked in February of 2020 before declining.
So I don't know what any of that means.
So if you know what that means, let me know.
I know what it means.
It means how science works, how it should work, is you pivot when you learn the science has changed.
But how it really works is once a worldwide industry has developed around the thing, it's the same as going to war.
Hey, we don't need to do that war.
Well, the machine's already in motion.
What can you do?
While previous research has often focused on rapid ice loss in West Antarctica, this study highlights concerning instability in four key glacier basins in East Antarctica's Wilkes Land, Queen Maryland region.
What a crazy name.
Wilkes Land, Queen Maryland?
You got to be kidding me.
Is that China's China Science China China?
China Science Science China?
These glacier systems showed alarming changes between the first two study periods with mass loss intensifying during the years 2011 and 2020 compared to 2002-2010.
So alarming.
So by the way, they didn't predict them.
They didn't know why.
They don't know what's going on.
What makes this finding particularly significant is that two of these glaciers, Vincennes Bay and Denman, transitioned.
Oh, really?
Are they on puberty blockers?
They transition from states of mass balance and accumulation to intense mass loss, respectively.
Again, I don't know what this means.
It went off of Zempic, probably.
They probably did.
How should we interpret these findings in the context of long-term climate trends?
So how should we interpret this?
So how are we supposed to?
So again, the data, I guess, doesn't speak for itself.
We have to interpret it.
Yeah, I didn't ask that question how I should interpret it.
I've already interpreted it right at the top slide.
Right.
So let's see how we interpret it.
Okay.
And they're not going to tell you that for most of the Earth's history, we did not have polar ice caps.
Did you know that?
No, I didn't, but I like how it's so wordy that it's like Jordan Peterson trying to vouch for censorship on joe that's right how should we interpret these findings in the context of long-term climate trends you mean more predictions i mean how we care about long-term you mean more climate models that have been proven wrong over and over While the recent mass gain provides a temporary reprieve from the rising sea levels,
the expanding inland mass loss areas in East Antarctica, in these East Antarctica glaciers, present a concerning pattern that warrants continued monitoring.
Oh, really?
I can translate.
I can translate.
Continue monitoring means keep giving us money.
Keep giving us money to do this.
That's what it means.
So Patrick Moore says, here's the big picture of global temperatures during the past 65 million years.
Now, climate scientists only go back to 1890, but a lot of people go back 65 million years.
Which one do you think is more informative?
They estimated that so that goes back 65 million years since the asteroid cataclysm that exterminated the dinosaurs.
We are at the tail end of a 50 million year cooling period.
Oh, I did know that there was no ice.
We're in an ice age this whole time.
Did you know that?
Yes, did you know we've been in an ice age this whole time?
There was no ice in the Arctic until 3 million years ago.
Our ice just appeared at the Arctic 3 million years ago, which is a blink of an eye in the lifetime of the planet.
So here's Peter Klack.
He says a million years of geological history does not lie.
Earth is in the Holocene interglacial, a brief warm cycle with an ice age lasting 2.58 million years.
All the empires rose in this warm interglacial period, but it will end.
A return to the depths of an ice age should be our greatest fear.
Oh, should we stop drive?
So we're back to global cooling again.
Yeah.
Well, we're just going to switch back which temperature is bad.
So, by the way, mentally, we're halfway to an ice age because we're being forced to live in our caves like we were during COVID, not allowed out, becoming primitive and clannish.
But believe me, the ice age was not as bad as the vanilla ice age where they raid your village and steal your baselick for their songs.
They raided David Bowie's village.
Is that what they did?
That's what they did.
So here's from the Washington Post.
This actually made it into the Washington Post.
You ready for this?
It says scientists have captured Earth's climate over the last 485 million years.
Here's the surprising place we stand now.
So what they figured out is it's cooler now than it's been.
Here, let me show you.
By the way, if you thought it was difficult to be a scientist now, imagine how tough it was 485 million years ago.
That's got to be that nobody knew what they were talking about because nobody knew how to talk.
So here it starts up there.
Global mean surface temperature.
And it's going down.
So it was way hotter 465 million years ago, going down, down, down.
And then here's where the first mammals appear.
Still going down.
And then still going down, down, down.
The extinction of the dinosaurs.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, going down.
So we're in a cooling period.
This is where we are now.
Current geological stage.
You see.
I get it.
I'm not a climate scientist.
What does that tell you, Misha?
Does that tell you that we're in a cooling phase?
Is that what that looks like, G?
It tells me your words more trustworthy than a climate scientist who I do not trust.
A climatologist?
Why would you be able to even, look, It's not related to climate.
It's planetary bodies.
But once you could predict orbits pretty perfectly, except once there's three bodies in relation to each other, it becomes impossible to predict what will happen.
And that's just three planets.
Like something like the climate, why would you even have a model that could do that?
It doesn't make any sense that they ever thought they could model.
When I asked, we all know that 10,000 years ago, which is, again, not even a blink of an eye in Earth's time, that most of North American continent was covered in ice.
It all went away.
That was before we started burning oil.
Does that ever get in anybody's head that all went away?
Okay.
Bloomberg News, they used this graph in Bloomberg News.
You want to see what the Bloomberg News says?
This was from last December.
The 10 most intriguing science breakthroughs of 2024.
And one of them was this graph.
One of them was what they found out.
Here it is.
Bloomberg talks about it.
It says, a new reconstruction of Earth's climate shows it fluctuated wildly over the eons.
No kidding.
Scientists, but they also, you know what, if you look, if you study it, that the temperature goes up and then carbon goes up.
It's not the other way around.
It's not carbon goes up and then temperature goes up.
It's the other way.
A new reconstruction of Earth's climate shows it fluctuated wildly over the eons.
Scientists shocked the world in the 1990s with a graph of the last thousand years, just over the last thousand, using natural records to reveal temperatures shooting upwards in the 20th century.
This one goes back 485 million years before dinosaurs, before forests, and before fish started dragging themselves up onto primitive banks.
Why isn't this?
Okay.
It shows that over the last 485 million years, the climate fluctuated between hot house periods when the global temperatures can be 30 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than it is now.
That's without burning any coal or oil or natural gas, 30 degrees hotter than it is now Fahrenheit.
And an unstable ice house periods when the temperature seesaws between ice ages and more temperate phases, like we're in right now.
Did you ever hear the little ice age?
Did you know that was just a few hundred years ago and it lasted like 400 years called a little ice age?
Did you know that that was even a thing?
No.
Well, that's the ice age.
That's what we're in right now.
We're in an unstable ice house period where the temperature seesaws between ice ages and more temperate phases.
Like right now, we're in a temperate phase.
It seesaws.
Sometimes living things adapted to the hottest spells with hippos and tropical palms slowly migrating to the Arctic.
So does that mean I can have a barbecue in my backyard again and have a gas stove?
Or do I have to pipe?
Do I have to peddle a bicycle generator to run my children's light bulb oven?
You have to have an Ed Bagley Jr. set up.
When change was sudden, the fossil record shows 80 to 90% of species went extinct.
That's what happens.
Though life has never been extinguished completely on the planet, the researchers who made the plot say it has been useful, a useful test of our climate models.
They match these measurements-based approximations going back in time.
So more steep warming is coming.
The good news is the Earth will likely be a living planet for millions of years.
No kidding.
Just like George Carlin said, the planet ain't going anywhere.
I always thought that.
I always like when they're like, save the planet.
I'm like, you know, we got to save ourselves.
Like, the planet's going to be fine.
Like a George Garland joke.
Why are they saying it like this is new information?
I agree with you.
So again, I'm not a climate scientist.
Don't take your climate knowledge from me, but be skeptical of the climate narrative because I know the people who are screaming the loudest about it are certainly the liars.
Just like the people who screamed the loudest about COVID were paid liars, like Dr. Fauci, Dr. Collins, who's the goof with the bow tie and the lab coat.
Those guys are charlatans, just like Bill Gates screaming about the vaccine.
And as soon as he cashed in his stock about the vaccine, he started saying that the Cohen vaccine didn't work.
Bill Gates did that as soon as he cashed in his stock.
So the people scream, I know for a fact the people screaming the loudest about climate change are either the world's biggest hypocrites or they're just lying.
Barack Obama goes to Africa and tells the people of Africa you can't have air conditioners and cars because if everybody in Africa has an air conditioner, that the planet's going to overheat.
And then what does he do?
He gets in a private jet, flies back to his new beachside mansion in Maui.
And then he flies to his other beachside mansion on Martha's Vineyard with a million.
How many air conditioners do you think it takes to air condition his?
I'm going to say about 10 at least, probably 10.
10 giant central air units.
Plus to film their great podcast and production stuff.
That equipment heats up the room.
You got to run AC.
Mark Zuckerberg says he's an environmentalist and he worries about climate change.
And then he bought a 430-foot yacht that's powered by four giant diesel engines.
But you have to have an electric stove.
You have to live in a 15-minute city living in a storage container, driving an electric scooter, eating the bugs that hit you on the face.
So we could all fight climate change.
Except they're going to keep flying around.
And then Bill Gates says, well, I buy carbon offsets.
Why would you continue?
If you really believe climate change is an existential threat, wouldn't you immediately stop flying your private jet?
Because a private jet emits more carbon than my car does in my whole lifetime.
One jet, one flight on one private jet emits more carbon than my car does in my lifetime.
So if you really thought that that was making the planet overheat, wouldn't you not buy carbon offsets?
You would stop flying in private jets.
Well, not if I'm a VIP, Jimmy.
Not if I'm more important than anything.
Well, if you're rich enough, you can still contribute to global warming and climate change.
If you're rich enough, and if you really thought climate change was real, wouldn't you just buy the carbon offsets anyway?
Wouldn't you put all your money into trying to fight it?
You're only going to do it so you could go take a private jet flight?
So those people are all liars, charlatans, and criminals.
Bill Gates is a criminal.
And of course, we know Barack Obama is also a war criminal.
So was John Kerry.
So are all those people.
Trump, Biden.
Hillary Clinton is soaked in blood and criminality.
What happened to that money from Haiti?

The Israelis are beating up.
There's a group of Jews who are against Zionism and they live in Jerusalem.
Jews have lived in Jerusalem for millennia.
Today, a lot of them are staunch anti-Zionists, living in essentially a ghetto in the center of Jerusalem.
So the people who are anti-Zionists live in a ghetto.
There were always Jews there, Jimmy, and they didn't want Zionists.
That's a historic fact.
That's right.
They did not want Zionists who were Russian and Polish people, not related to them.
And Ukrainian.
And didn't want them.
That's right.
While Israelis were celebrating Independence Day, anti-Zionist Jews gathered for a demonstration in Mia Sharim, which was brutally suppressed by so they so they got together for a protest and they were brutally suppressed.
And by the way, let's watch.
Let's watch.
We're in Mesharim, a Jewish.
So I don't know if you know it.
This is what happens when you don't take absolute control of social media.
All of your own people turn against you when they find out who and what you actually are.
Their own people are turning against them.
Here, let's watch.
He's in Sharim.
Orthodox neighborhood in the very center of Jerusalem, which has been turned into a kind of a ghetto by the Israeli state.
The core of the population of Mesharim lived here since before the Zionist state.
A lot of them are very anti-Zionist.
Today there is a demonstration done at the same time as Israel's Independence Day.
Jews are not Zionists because the Zionist ideology is not Jewish.
A Zionist ideology is against the Jewish beliefs.
Zionists are not Jews anymore.
Even if they were born as Jews, they are not Jews anymore.
Of course, we raise the Palestinian flag because, first of all, it's a symbol that we have no war with them.
We are against the occupation that they have been going through.
We are like brothers with each other.
We understand that what they suffer is our suffering also.
Every spilled blood that we see with them is hurting our heart, especially when it comes from the Jewish nation's name.
They stole the Jewish nation's name, Israel, and we are ashamed.
We are very ashamed that they do it in our name.
They have owned this land.
It's called Palestine.
They tried to remove the Palestinian name, the Palestinian tradition.
They stole the Jewish name and they steal the Palestinian land.
There is no freedom here.
There is no democracy like you see.
We cannot declare our opinions in public.
We cannot make a protest in public.
And I've personally been beaten today.
They just arrested a father and left.
Holy shit.
Fuck.
They just arrested a father and left his child in a stroller in the middle of the street alone.
*Screams*
So these are Jews beating other Jews.
These are Zionist Jews beating Hasidic Jews, Jews who have lived there for a millennia.
Well, Hasidic wasn't there for millennia, but those Jews are the ones that were there first.
They didn't turn on Israel.
They never wanted Zionists there.
And that's why people go, oh, the Jews.
That's why it's a dickhead thing to say.
Because there's no such thing as that.
There's no such thing as that.
The people that live there did never wanted this.
And they've been persecuted like they're natives.
Those are native Israelis.
Yes.
So why wouldn't you love the Israelis when they treat you this way in your own country just for having a different opinion?
That's how they think.
I mean, they might as well just live in the United States right now or Germany or England.
Because that's what's happening.
If you have a different opinion, that's what they're doing to you.
Or France, for that matter.
There's more to this.
Okay, we want the Palestinians to gain back their lands because we are not thieves.
We don't want anything to take out from them.
We want them to believe peacefully and with freedom, with complete freedom.
No apartheid, no apartheid state.
We don't want it.
Boy, you're not going to see that guy on MSNBC, CNN, or Fox News.
I'll tell you that.
You're not going to see it.
There's a bunch of people.
I don't know if it's a Catholic thing or what it is, but there is an anti-Semite thing where it's like, I think it's to tarnish you for criticizing Israel, honestly.
But you never get to see this.
No.
I didn't know the history of any of this until October 7th.
Me neither.
I guess I got to give Bibi a debt of gratitude for his little false flag he did that opened my eyes to it because I had no clue about any of it.
Let's listen to this.
This is another psychopath.
Israel's politician.
So this is an Israel Israeli politician calling for the starvation of Palestinians, children.
Literal, legit starvation.
I will starve the Gazans, yes.
It is our duty to expel the Gazans.
So they call them Gazans, not Palestinians, because the land is called Palestine.
Isn't that interesting?
It wasn't called Israelstein.
It was called Palestine.
And so we have to starve the Gazans.
There are 10 countries in the world that want them and are ready to absorb them.
So they want to kick them out of their own land.
So this is called ethnic cleansing.
Before the argument was, nobody will even take the Palestinians.
What does that tell you about them?
That's what we got to wipe them out.
Now they're saying, no, no, there's 10 countries that actually want them.
Let's get rid of them.
This is our job every day that passes here is to kick the Palestinians and ethnically cleanse Gaza and the West Bank.
Members of the Knesset, if you say in Israel, Israeli parliament, I want to starve Gazans, understand the implications of that statement.
Wasn't I clear?
It's simple.
I want to starve Gazans completely.
A full siege.
These people are psychopaths.
These people are psychopaths.
That's siege warfare, by the way, is a war crime.
You know what's so crazy about that's called collective punishment.
Go ahead.
What?
You know, the interview with Madeline Albright where, like, you starved all those kids as a worth it.
I think it was.
Yeah.
It is refreshing how they would openly say their psychotic intentions rather than our American leaders who, by the way, do all this.
They do it on the regular.
And they all like, it's not polite to say what they're really doing.
But they'll just blurt it out to a shock.
That's why I say look at Israeli news and not American news if you want to know what's going on there.
They're remarkably forthcoming about the evil shit they're doing.
Yes.
They'll say it in Israel.
They won't say it here in the United States.
Exactly.
They'll say it right on TV there.
Yeah.
He's like, hey, I want to starve all the Gazans.
I want to starve them.
Full siege.
What he's basically saying, another term for that is he's saying, I want to do a full-blown war crime.
I'm all for full-blown war crimes.
That's another way to say that.
Go ahead, Kurt.
You're going to hit every Hitler note you can hit?
Is the irony lost on you that completely?
Let's watch.
Anyone who wants to leave Gaza can leave for a humanitarian zone that we will control, a zone that we will control.
The Israeli army will distribute food in the zone.
And how will you deal with the world's criticism?
He asked.
So how are you going to deal with the world's criticism of what you're doing?
They don't care.
Let's see what he says.
Really?
We've been there before.
The world's criticism, forget about that.
We need to take care of Jews.
It's time.
So that's not, you're not taking care of Jews.
You're slaughtering and ethnically cleansing Palestinians.
That's not taking care of it.
So the trick to being a psychopath like this guy is to just say everything like it's normal.
Just say it like it's normal.
Promote it like there's something wrong with you if you don't agree.
Because that's how a mental case would say things.
That's how he's saying it.
Well, if you live in a psychopath theocracy with no constitution, it is normal.
Yeah, yep.
So let's watch a little more of that protest.
Hello!
Did you see that sign?
It said Zionism, the main cause of anti-Semitism.
Zionism.
And that's 100% right.
I agree with the Jews in Jerusalem saying Zionism is the cause of anti-Semitism.
People are like, well, there is a rise in anti-Semitism.
Like, really, you think?
I wonder why that is.
Maybe because they're robbing us of our free speech to protect Zionists.
You know, the people who are the most powerful in the United States, who need the least amount of protection, they're going to steal our freedom of speech.
They're going to deport people who are here legally on green cards who are doing everything we ask them to do to become a citizen.
They're going to deport them because they use their speech.
Of course.
So if you equate anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism, you know who does that?
Anti-Semites and Zionists.
Isn't it amazing?
Yeah.
Anti-Semitism has not risen at all.
At all.
At all.
Anti-Zionism has risen.
That's right.
And they pass these resolutions to try to pretend it's the same thing, but I know it's not the same thing because I'm watching them beat up Jews who say it's not the same thing.
All right.
All right.
All right.
Isn't it amazing how cops are cops everywhere?
Isn't it amazing?
Even in Israel and Jerusalem.
Like, they don't give.
They're a little more annually invasive in Jerusalem.
Yeah.
Boy, look at all those.
Look at all those disruptive anti-Semitic Nazis and their matching getups.
Oh, and look at the Orthodox Jews, too.
Oh, and look at the Orthodox Jews.
Do you see what he's holding?
So he's got a mock-up of the Israeli flag and he's got a swastika on it.
Yeah, it's not divided by Orthodox.
It's not that Orthodox likes it.
No, there's no, but they're no.
There's Chabad, Chabad Lubavitch.
That's the real main cult that spread a lot of stuff around.
But like I said, there's not the Jews.
There's a lot of factions here.
It really was never supposed to be like what they made it, which is a blasphemy to most of these Jews.
That's right.
So if you go along with Zionists, you're a chump.
They've pressed your racist button, so you hate people who are called Palestinians.
You equate all Palestinians with Hamas, and most Palestinians don't support him.
They barely won the election in 2006.
Most of the people alive today in Palestine did not vote in that election.
But they have to do that propaganda so you go along with literally slaughtering them and starving them on purpose.
They won't show that video of that guy in the United States on corporate news saying, yeah, no, we're going to starve them.
No, do you hear what I'm saying?
We're going to starve them.
They're not going to show that on Rachel Maddow or Chris Hayes or Anderson Cooper.
They're not going to show that on Sean Hannity.
They're not going to show that here.
And I really want to know how either party, the Democrats or Republicans, are okay with the slaughter of children.
Well, I just want to say that.
I thought they were absolutely wanting to protect children.
Well, AOC pretends she lies and she says, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are working tirelessly to get a ceasefire.
And then it just came out that they never did.
That was a lie.
She just made it up.
She also said he was the most progressive president.
She also said that too.
Yeah, and that's she's the future of the Democratic Party.
Why?
Because she buckles to the establishment.
That's why if she was actually what she appeared to be, she would not be allowed to be in the Democratic Party.
They get rid of her like they get rid of everybody who stands up to them.
Like Desik Dennis Kucinich.
They gerrymanded her right out of the fucking district.
So finally, we're stopping the crazy bioweapons experiments.
It's not research.
There's experiments trying to figure out how to make stuff more deadly so that the Pentagon can then use it as A weapon.
I want to share this with you because it just came out today.
Jeffrey Sachs is now being quoted all over social media as saying that the COVID-19 virus was created at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.
He says he's only 99% sure.
Now, Jeffrey Sachs was the head of the Lancet study group about where the COVID virus came from.
But I already showed you that the former head of the CDC, Redfield, already said it was Ralph Barrick at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, most likely that created this virus.
So it wasn't created in Wuhan.
Who's actually here?
And I've had people come to my shows and tell me that.
Well, so the problem is, they said Barack Obama stopped that gain of function, but he didn't.
Yeah.
Here it is.
It says in 2014, the federal government put a moratorium.
The federal government, meaning Barack Obama, put a moratorium on some gain of function research, but Barrick's work was not banned.
I mean, how many ways can the government tell you that they hate you and want you to die, and they're going to lie to you at every step of your life, and they're going to do nothing for you, but it will be all.
But don't listen to the experts.
Don't do your own research.
Trust science.
Be a moron.
Don't think for yourself.
Don't ever question authority.
Do as the man on the TV says.
That's all things I heard from comedians, which makes me embarrassed to be a comedian.
Those are quotes.
I know those are quotes, by the way.
It sounds like you're being wry.
Those are quotes.
Yes.
So guess what?
Donald Trump today, I'm pretty sure this is today.
Double check me on the date.
Has stopped.
He has signed an executive order banning gain of function research.
It's not research.
It's experiments.
It's crazy.
It's psychopathic research that takes viruses and makes them more deadly and more transmissible.
Why would you want to ever do that?
Oh, because we want to create bioweapons.
Which I thought you're not supposed to do, but we're not signed on to any Geneva convention.
This is today.
So here it is today.
Today being May.
Cinco de Mayo.
Cinco de Mayo.
Here you go.
The first relates to gain of function research.
Gain of function research is a type of biomedical research where pathogens are adulterated viruses or adulterated to make them more potent or to change the way that they function.
Many people believe that gain of function research was one of the key causes of the COVID pandemic that struck us in the last decade.
What this executive order does, first of all, it provides powerful new tools to enforce the ban on federal funding for gain of function research abroad.
It also strengthens other oversight mechanisms related to that issue and creates an overarching strategy to ensure that biomedical research in general is being conducted safely and in a way that ultimately protects human health more.
It's a big deal.
It could have been that we wouldn't have had the problem we had.
A lot of people say that, sir.
If we had this done earlier.
Thank you.
So there you have it.
So finally, we're stopping the crazy bioweapons, psychopathic, crazy scientists experiments.
It's not research.
There's experiments trying to figure out how to make stuff more deadly so that the Pentagon can then use it as a weapon.
That's why Fauci was the guy funding this because he was the head of the bioweapons division of DARPA, which is the Pentagon.
And when did he get that job?
Right after 9-11.
That's why Fauci was the highest paid guy in all of government.
And that's also why he got a blanket pardon going back to 2014 because the people who actually run this country are not politicians.
The people who run this country are the donors, the people at the Pentagon, the war machine, Wall Street.
Those are the people of Big Pharma.
Those are the people who actually run this country.
And when you see a session of Congress, those politicians aren't there doing the bidding of workers or students or voters or citizens or the elderly.
They're doing the bidding of the people who actually run this country, the owners, as George Carlin put it, the owners of this country.
And there's only a handful of them.
There's only a handful of billionaires that own all the media.
Like 15, 15 billionaires have six companies that run every movie, TV show, radio show, newspaper in the country.
So.
He goes, many people believe it was this research that caused COVID.
That really sticks in my craw a little bit, Jimmy.
You know what would be a great thing for Trump to do?
Sign one of your world-famous executive orders to declassify everything relating to that and then arrest the people responsible for the crime and give them one of those trials we gave Saddam and give them the same treatment we gave Saddam.
That would be the right thing to do.
Because what they're doing right now is Trump was there when we pushed this stupid vaccine.
He just learned about this just now.
So, oh, great.
You signed it now after the soft kills were done.
That's great.
Is anybody going to be brought to justice for it?
No.
Dr. Fauci, as you are aware, it is a crime to lie to Congress.
Section 1001 of the U.S. Criminal Code creates a felony and a five-year penalty for lying to Congress.
On your last trip to our committee on May 11th, you stated that the NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain of function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
And yet, gain of function research was done entirely in the Wuhan Institute by Dr. Xi and was funded by the NIH.
I'd like to ask unanimous consent to insert into the record the Wuhan Virology paper entitled Discovery of a Rich Gene Pool of Bat SARS-related Coronaviruses.
Please deliver a copy of the journal article to Dr. Fauci.
In this paper, Dr. Xi credits the NIH and lists the actual number of the grant that she was given by the NIH.
In this paper, she took two bat coronavirus genes, spike genes, and combined them with a SARS-related backbone to create new viruses that are not found in nature.
These lab-created viruses were then to Shown to replicate in humans.
These experiments combine genetic information from different coronaviruses that infect animals, but not humans, to create novel artificial viruses able to infect human cells.
Viruses that in nature only infect animals were manipulated in the Wuhan lab to gain the function of infecting humans.
This research fits the definition of the research that the NIH said was subject to the pause in 2014 to 2017, a pause in funding on gain of function.
But the NIH failed to recognize this, defines it a way, and it never came under any scrutiny.
Dr. Richard E. Bright, a molecular biologist from Rutgers, described this research in Wuhan as: the Wuhan lab used NIH funding to construct novel, chimeric, SARS-related coronaviruses able to infect human cells and laboratory animals.
This is high-risk research that creates new potential pandemic pathogens, potential pandemic pathogens that exist only in the lab, not in nature.
This research matches, these are Dr. Ebright's words, this research matches, indeed, epitomizes the definition of gain of function research done entirely in Wuhan, for which there was supposed to be a federal pause.
Dr. Fauci, knowing that it is a crime to lie to Congress, do you wish to retract your statement of May 11th where you claimed that the NIH never funded gain of function research in Wuhan?
Senator Paul, I have never lied.
Microphone doesn't.
Senator Paul, I have never lied before the Congress, and I do not retract that statement.
This paper that you are referring to was judged by qualified staff up and down the chain as not being gain of function.
I like that up and down the chain.
What is that?
Talk about a complete made-up term that sounds authoritarian, authoritative.
Up and down the chain.
Up and down the chain.
You mean up and down the chain of people you hired personally?
And they owe their conspirators.
And they oak, yeah, co-conspirators.
Up and down the chain of co-conspirators.
That's what it means.
Yeah.
Let me finish.
Take an animal virus and you increase its transmissibility to humans.
Right.
You're saying that's not gain of function?
That is correct.
And Senator Paul, you do not know what you are talking about, quite frankly.
And I want to say that officially.
You do not know what you are talking about.
Okay, you get one person.
Let's read from the NIH gain of function.
This is your definition that you guys wrote.
It says that scientific research that increases the transmissibility among animals is gain of function.
They took animal viruses that only occur in animals and they increased their transmissibility to humans.
How you can say that is not gain of function?
It is not.
It's a dance, and you're dancing around this because you're trying to obscure responsibility for 4 million people dying around the world from a pandemic.
And let's let's send Dr. Fax.
I have to, well, now you're getting into something.
If the point that you are making is that the grant that was funded as a sub-award from EcoHealth to Wuhan created SARS-CoV-2, that's where you are getting.
Let me finish.
We don't know.
Wait a minute.
It didn't come from the lab, but all the evidence is pointing that it came from the lab.
There will be responsibility for those who funded the lab, including yourself.
I totally totally resent the lie that you are now propagating, Senator, because if you look at the virus, because it wasn't created at Wuhan, we created it right here at University of North Carolina, Champal Hill.
All right, we're talking about Trump threatening to bomb Iran, and one person who was not upset by these threats is the Republican Senator Tom Cotton.
And in fact, he doesn't understand what the big fuss is about to the point where when he recently questioned the incoming chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan Kaine, Tom Cotton asked Dan Kaine, will you be ready to execute an order to bomb Iran?
If the president asks for military options to support what he has said publicly, that if Iran is not willing to make a deal, that there will be bombing, do you commit to provide him the best and candid advice you can about viable military options and the likely consequences of each?
Senator, I think that's what the job of the joint staff is to do, is to provide a range of options for the president to consider and then allow him to select whatever those options work best for him.
Thank you.
And finally, there's some hysteria about the prospect of the president ordering these strikes or someone like you in uniform providing him advice that it's going to lead to another forever war or another endless war.
Are you aware of operations, maybe operations against Iran, like the tanker wars in 1988, in which the forceful but discriminate application of military power did not lead to a forever war or an endless war, but rather led to peace and stability?
Yes, sir.
Those examples in our history do exist.
Maybe the Qasim Suleimani strike in 2020 as well that caused Iran to pull in its horns for the rest of President Trump's first term.
Thank you, General Kane.
Thank you, Senator.
All right, let me bring in former Democratic member of Congress, Dennis Kucinich.
When he was in Congress, he had a much different take on the prospect of war.
He was leading the charge against it.
He was the leading congressional opponent of George W. Bush's invasion of Iraq.
So, Dennis Kucinich, when you hear that from Tom Cotton, he's mocking people who are afraid of an attack on Iran.
He calls that hysteria.
And then he tries to argue that, look, we've done this before.
We've had wars with, we've had battles with Iran before and things went fine.
So what's the worry about?
What do you make of that argument from Cotton?
A couple of things.
First of all, you know, I've met Senator Cotton a few times.
He loves America.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be serving in the U.S. Senate.
And he wants to protect America.
I understand that.
The general, who we had a colloquy with, has a responsibility to follow orders.
He wants to protect America.
That same kind of thinking existed when we were told back in 2002 that Iran had weapons of mass destruction that they were going to use against the United States.
Iran didn't have those weapons, but we were lied to.
Iran didn't have the intention or the capability of attacking America.
Iran was not involved in the anthrax attack.
We found out later on, the anthrax came from Fort Dittrick, Maryland, from an army lab.
Now, let's compare that to where we are right now.
Iran doesn't have the intention or capability of attacking the United States.
Iran hasn't, you know, done, has not developed a nuclear weapon.
Our own intelligence agencies say that.
So, if that's the case, what is compelling senators, congressmen to say, yeah, go for it, bomb Iran.
People aren't thinking.
America's not at risk here unless we do bomb.
And this is as old, you know, this is an old story in history, which historian Barbara Tuchman brilliantly analyzed in her book, The March of Folly.
You know, she did a sweep of history from the Trojan Wars all the way through to Vietnam to show how leaders, wooden-headedness, she calls it, made worse the better reason and ended up attacking other countries to the detriment of the country that did the attacking, and of course, to the ruination of the people they attacked.
So this is, we have to evolve as a species here.
You know, this is about: do we have a capacity to do that?
We have to, or we're going to destroy ourselves.
And so I see even the talk about the bombing, you know, you got to think there is unity of thought, word, and deed.
When people think about it and then they articulate it, and when it's the president of the United States who's doing this, you have to pay very close attention and then they get ready to do it.
You know, there's a chance they might go ahead and bomb Iran's nuclear infrastructure.
No one's thinking about the consequences of that.
And if they are, they should share that with the American people.
Because what I did in my column in Substack was show that if you bomb a nuclear reactor or a nuclear lab, radiation is going everywhere.
If you use nuclear weapons and every one of those bombs that the B-2 bomber can carry, each one of them is 80 Hiroshima, 8-0.
What are we talking about?
You know, Presidents Obama and Biden talked about moving the B-83 bombs out of the American inventory.
President Trump kept them alive.
Again, this is not just about President Trump and who he is.
This is about who we are.
We ought to be calling our members of Congress and the Senate and saying, hey, wait, stop it.
Stop this madness.
You know, most people aren't.
If you asked most people where Iran is on a map, they wouldn't be able to find it.
But let me share some information.
Iran is a technologically advanced society.
They're part of the Persian culture, very famous for art and literature and mathematics.
90 million people, 90 million.
You know, you're talking about a country bigger than Texas, okay?
Where are we going with this?
We're actually thinking about bombing the nuclear infrastructure with nuclear weapons of a country with 90 million people.
And we don't think there's going to be any consequences to that if you bomb one place out of the over a dozen installations that are nuclear.
You're talking about radioactivity that is going to result in radioactive poison, increases in cancer, genetic defects.
And of course, the more places you bomb, the more the wider it's spread.
You know, this is a doomsday scenario we're talking about here.
Yeah, and there's one that Trump campaigned against.
What's funny about that clip of Tom Cotton mocking people who are concerned about what he calls forever wars, which he puts in quotes derisively, is that Trump campaigned against forever wars explicitly.
This is Trump back in 2020.
We are ending the era of endless wars.
In its place is a renewed, clear-eyed focus on defending America's vital interests.
It is not the duty of U.S. troops to solve ancient conflicts in faraway lands that many people have never even heard of.
We are not the policemen of the world.
And the slash up in 2020, during this most recent cycle, he explicitly criticized Joe Biden for bombing Yemen.
I look at your policies.
I see secure the borders, bring jobs back.
I look at the Democrats and many Republicans, and it's foreign war and foreign expansion.
What is that?
I think it's just a failed mentality.
It's crazy.
You can sell problems over a telephone.
Instead, they start dropping bombs.
I see recently they're dropping bombs all over Yemen.
You don't have to do that.
You can talk in such a way where they respect you and they listen to you.
Hudenas Kucinich, I mean, you're a rare Democratic politician who's tried to reach across the aisle.
And I know that there are people in Trump's base who agree with this message.
I mean, it's what they voted for, which he now seems to have completely abandoned, at least when it comes to ending the wars in the Middle East.
Well, we have to ask why.
And it's a tragedy because as you played that tape, and I'm listening to it, I'm thinking, yes, he gets it.
He understands that what America risks.
But what's happened?
What's happened is that President Trump, as many presidents have been, is open To influence by individuals who are not necessarily Americans, who don't have America's interests at heart, and who have their own political agenda.
And when you look at Prime Minister Netanyahu, he is trying to stay out of jail.
In order to do that, he's got to keep his coalition together.
His coalition are some of the most devastatingly right-wingers, hardcore Zionists who are okay with killing Palestinians and they're okay with killing Iranians.
Now, if there is a war against Iran, it will not be without consequence for people in Israel.
Iran has the ability, even if being bombed, they have a missile system that is all over their country.
They have the ability to launch multiple independently targeted missiles that they can change the direction and flight, defeat Israel's missile shield.
They have the ability to strike Israel.
And I don't have any doubt that if the United States bombs Iran, that Israel is going to pay the price.
The people of Israel will pay the price.
In addition to that, if it's a full-scale attack on a nuclear infrastructure, the radiation could reach the Middle East and Israel, Syria, Lebanon, the wider region.
People have to think about consequences here.
And one, I mean, one of the things we do with the child at the earliest age, we teach them the consequences of their action.
And no one's talking consequence here.
It's just like, well, if we can do it, we'll do it.
Really?
That's not what life is about.
You have to make decisions based on what's rational and what's right.
Now, President Trump is a celebrated deal maker.
He broke the deal in 2017 that it took six nations 13 years to construct, but he set it aside.
Iran continued with its program, not to make a weapon.
They continue with their nuclear program.
Nuclear power, just like we have nuclear power, provides energy to our communities.
But what's happened here is that the president has now decided that, you know, he's not going to negotiate, or he's going to make a non-negotiable demand, which isn't negotiation.
And while the contents of the letter that he sent to Iranian leaders has never been released, it's pretty clear from the sense of things that he's just telling Iran, you got to get rid of everything that is nuclear, your nuclear reactors, your nuclear research labs, everything else, or else we're going to bomb you, the likes of which we've never seen before.
Now, come on.
I mean, he's president of the United States.
When a president of the United States says that, you better take it seriously.
