Time Text
Two, one.
And welcome, folks, to Truth vs.
News, all the different news channels blabbing.
You're on Sunday, January 19th, 2025. Well, that's the day before the 20th of January.
That's Martin Luther King's birthday.
And maybe something else is happening tomorrow, too.
I think there's something like an inauguration or something like that.
We want to be staying tuned for all the hot news that's coming up this week.
And be sure to watch all the hot news that we have for you that's going to bring and make some sense to what's going on.
And I will say I have the best people in the world here.
You can't find more proper scholars than these gentlemen at the very top here.
We've got Jim Fetzer, who's famous for this book here about nobody dying on Sandy Hook.
And Santee, this one holds water and the official story is plopped.
And of course, we have about 9-11 and other things.
And I could go through about 40 books of Jim's.
And they're all really awesome books that should be in your library.
And we're going to get some of Jim's good learning here on our show today.
He's got a hot stuff.
We also have Joaquin Hagopian.
He's all the way from Bali.
Actually, he's just sitting there in Bali, enjoying the sunshine with the Indonesian weather, but he's got one brain that is really engineered to get the truth out there in a way that really has an impact.
And we have Bryan Davidson, our private eye investigator out of Texas, who really knows how to check the details.
And get the story to you so it means something.
So, Jim, I guess maybe we'd rather get going with the inauguration.
Is that the best place to start?
Well, an event some may regard as even more important is NCAA football championship between Ohio State and Notre Dame tomorrow night.
Oh, I forgot that.
Planning a family event.
It should be a lot of fun.
Meanwhile, yeah, the question is...
There's no excuse this time.
The Secret Service must keep Trump safe for the inauguration.
Next week, I'll mark a triumphant return for American standards as former President Trump is set to retake his position in the White House and undo catastrophic mistakes made by the Biden admin over the past few years.
It'll take time, effort, and patience, but I know he'll get the job done.
That said, I need to implore the Secret Service and all major security involved to do their jobs.
It's no secret, some are displeased, Trump is returning to the White House.
These folks, who voted for Kamala in the hope of a brighter tomorrow, are no doubt bitter about Trump toppling their candidate.
That said, it appears the Secret Service, believe it or not, is ready to do its job.
Agent in charge of the inauguration announced the whole event is a higher threat environment.
They're activating every possible resource to keep him safe.
This includes a more robust security plan than been in the making for the past year.
It involves reportedly over 25,000 law enforcement and military.
For that matter, closed-circuit TV will keep close eyes on the event as well in case anyone's out of line.
Anyone who thinks this is overblown for a civil inauguration ought to recognize the current climate the world is seeing and how far some will go to voice their opinion.
It's a time when safety must be a top priority.
And if you need a reminder of how badly the Secret Service could blow it, let's go back to July 13, 2024, in Butler, PA. A lone gunman sought to assassinate Trump.
Coming within inches, hitting him in the head, grazing his ear, according to the official account.
But the fact the gunman could position himself at an event where the Secret Service was supposed to do its job is a scary thought.
And as we all know, the security perimeter had a wedge that left out the building where the gunman was located.
It had to be deliberate.
The author wondering whether some poor fool might try the same thing.
I'd like to say I have faith in the Secret Service, but it's hard to tell right now.
Fallout from Pennsylvania, including the Department of the Departure of the Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheadle, who appeared to have no clue what was going on, taking blame in an effort to keep pressure off fellow agents.
Not to mention rival him in attempting to strike Trump at his own golf course just a few months later in an averted assassination attempt at Coachella, California rally when an armed man tried to pass through a checkpoint.
Meanwhile, Hal Turner reports, uh-oh, seeding a narrative already, if something should happen to Trump in the next few days.
As I write, 10.13 p.m.
Eastern, Saturday, January 18th, I just got a little freaked out by the social media posting.
If something should happen to drop over the next few days, the main suspect is, here's the actual posting.
Why say something like this unless it's already planned?
Why suggest a suspect unless it's already planned?
I take this to mean they're saying of a narrative already.
In case the post were to be deleted, I'd place a screenshot here.
And of course, they're suggesting Iran.
Yes.
In whose interest is it to have Trump gone?
A particular group of identifiable people.
In whose interest is it to blame Iran?
The same group of identifiable people.
I don't like how this looks.
No, I don't like it one bit.
Meanwhile, Trump won't pre-inauguration rally this evening.
I watched a chunk of it.
President Trump pledged to act with historic speed and strength that fixed every single crisis fixing our country during the pre-inauguration rally.
He claimed that rally at Capital One Arena before even taking office.
You're seeing results no one expected to see.
Zoom in.
He pointed to a surging stock market, optimism among small businesses, Bitcoin record high.
And as of today, TikTok is back.
He said in reverence that Chinese-owned companies moved to restore the video app in the U.S. after Trump vowed to sign an executive order on his first day, today enforcing a ban on the platform.
What we're watching?
Trump promised during the speech that people are going to see executive orders.
They're going to make you extremely happy.
Lots of them when he takes office on Monday.
President-elect said he would visit Wildfire Ravage Los Angeles Friday.
Meanwhile, incoming Department of Government Efficiency co-leader Lynn Mosk appeared briefly on stage at the rally with his son, pledging To make significant changes and cement those changes and set the foundation for America to be strong for centuries forever.
He closed with the village people performing.
And for a reason I don't understand, their song ought to be MAGA, which is the tune of YMCA, but I've never seen him go with a mega song, which would be very, very appropriate.
Brian, your thoughts?
Well, you're right that Donald Trump is in a very precarious position.
He's threatening right now a lot of different structures that have been in place for a long time, and he's not offering a lot for each of these special interests.
If you think about big pharma, they're a huge threat.
threat.
If you think about the military industrial complex, which Dwight Eisenhower warned us about on his outgoing speech, they're being threatened.
If you think about all of the institutions, not only in the United States government, but in global governances that are Western aligned, he's a threat to their continued funding and alliances.
They're The entire lobby structure in Washington, D.C. is probably scared to death that he's not going to be able to give them what they pay to get.
And then the biggest question is, will he relentlessly prosecute those who have gone after him in the past?
Will he go after the pedophile networks?
Will there be a crackdown?
Will there be a break?
There's a lot of reasons for a lot of people, except for the modern American who's middle class or upper middle class or even lower class, who are hoping for a better economy and a smaller government.
And so when you realize that institutions are built by financial structures and motivating interests that really cannot be displaced without absolutely destroying them, then you realize that the idea of Donald Trump then you realize that the idea of Donald Trump taking the oath tomorrow could be the end of them.
So it wouldn't surprise me at all if there was a conspiracy plot similar to that to take out JFK.
I don't think they're going to try it on day one.
And with Vance backing him up, I think he'll be okay.
But the question really comes down to who's willing to risk their life and go after this to make him a martyr for this platform when there's so many good runner-up players that could step in after he takes the oath tomorrow.
So I think it's interesting to probe the question of...
Whether or not they will use their resources to assassinate him, I hope that they don't.
But more importantly, I hope Donald Trump takes office and begins to make moves in the right direction.
There's going to be things that we're not happy about, and there's going to be things that we are happy about.
But if we have our sort of wish list as to what this next four years brings us, I'm going to put...
A restructuring of the justice system at the top level of it, a battering of the FBI also near the top of it, and a crippling of the lobbyists from the military-industrial complex, the APAC complex, and pharma complex.
And if that's possible, great.
If he even accomplishes two or three of those, in the first year, I'll be happy.
Well, I have to say I'm not so optimistic as Brian is.
Everything is, you know, complete theater, of course.
And I think the best way to appraise from the outset how he's going to do in the next four years is look at his past.
Because, you know, present and future behavior really have a lot to do with past behavior.
So he did four years already, a few years ago now, and he made a lot of promises he did not keep.
I anticipate the same thing.
Presidential candidates are always promising the world, you know, and then they don't deliver.
That's the historical precedent going in.
So let's get real about that.
Yes, I hope the guy comes through for the people of America.
You know, like he's always trying to project that image.
But reality is, he's got a synagogue of Satan, Zionists all around him, ready to defend Israel at all costs.
He's been throwing his weight around as a world bully already, pissing people off in different countries.
So I can't say that I think we're going to, I mean, I hope for the best, but, you know, I just have to go on reality and I can't expect all that much because, again, this man is controlled opposition.
He's gotten a lot of trouble in the past with the pedophilia stuff and he's no different from the rest of them as far as that goes.
And so I can't think that he's going to be on his own to make his own decisions.
He will not.
Very, very interesting.
I'm cautiously optimistic.
Meanwhile, Netanyahu's Lukid Party says a ceasefire deal allows a return to fighting under American guarantee.
I don't like the sound of that.
Israeli PM Netanyahu's Lukid Party.
Said in his statement Thursday, the Gaza ceasefire deal will allow Israel to return to fighting under American guarantee.
The statement was a response to the National Security Minister Atamar Ben-Gurv, leader of the Jewish Power Party, to threaten to quit the coalition of the ceasefire were all approved.
The three-phase deal does not commit Israel to a permanent truce.
The statement from Lukud signals the U.S. has assured Israel it could resume its genocidal war after the first phase involving a 42-day ceasefire and initial hostage exchange.
According to Israeli sources, speaking to Yunnan, he had his recent understanding with the incoming Trump admin that he could restart military operation if he deemed Hamas Is violating the deal.
The good statement also said Israel got some kind of guarantee about getting additional military aid from the U.S. for agreeing to the ceasefire.
The statement said the deal allows Israel to receive weapons and means of warfare it needs, maximize the number of live hostages released, maintain full control of the Philadelphia corridor, and security buffer.
Surrounding the entire Gaza Strip and achieve dramatic security achievements that will ensure Israel's security for generations.
According to Israel Hayom, the U.S. and Israel have reached an understanding, including the unfreezing of previously delayed U.S. military aid, with the idea of a Defense Ministry official cleared to submit Comprehensive Rearmament Request for Both Immediate and Long-Term Needs.
In response to the Luka Tzema and Gurdjieff's power, Senate still oppose the deal.
This deal is a violation of all the prime minister's public commitment to his partners and the Israeli public.
It includes stopping the war, leaving the Philadelphia corridor, abandoning the Netsrip corridor, Returning terrorists to the northern Gaza Strip without insurrection and releasing hundreds of murderers with Jewish blood on their hands.
Meanwhile, the agreement includes capitulation on key factors.
Israel has agreed to withdraw fully from Gaza, leaving no troops or security, including full withdrawal from the Tel Aviv corridor.
Agree to allow Hamas to rule Gaza.
Not in the agreement, but no mechanism to remove Hamas.
Israel has agreed not to exile, release wizards, but rather let them into Gaza again.
Has waived its demand for a list of live hostages.
Has agreed to allow residents to return to northern Gaza with only symbolic security measures.
Agreed to accept dead bodies in the first stage.
All these were red lines.
For Israel, at one point, it's remarkable.
They're all being won.
The victory for Hamas is remarkable.
The reason it's happened?
Despite incredible victories on a battlefield, Israel has not offered a political program to replace Hamas or to remove them from Gaza as a governing force.
It has failed to translate IDF gains into political ones.
That has, in essence, Nullified its military achievements.
Meanwhile, Israel's far right is livid.
Jewish supremacist finance minister Benziel Smotrich, an explicit supporter of Palestinian genocide, part of Netanyahu's coalition, called the deal a catastrophe for Israel's national security.
We will not be part of a surrender deal that would include releasing terrorists.
Stopping the war and dissolving the achievements that were brought with much blood and abandoning many hostages, Moltef said.
It's a time to continue with all our might, to occupy and cleanse the entire Strip, to finally take control of humanitarian aid from Hamas, and to open the gates of hell on Gaza until Hamas surrenders completely and all the hostages are returned.
The Israeli right wing is melting down at the prospect of drunk pressure in Israel to accept the ceasefire.
This is from Muir Ettinger, grandson of the infamous Rabbi Muir Kahane, and leader of the settler terrorist group that burned a Palestinian family live in 2015. Cursed is the man who trusts in man and puts trust in the flesh of his seed.
With a photograph of Donald Trump.
Meanwhile, Kevin Barrett writes, Israel loses gossip war and its PR counterpart.
A genocide ending sees fire.
Thank you, Kevin Barrett, for joining us.
Author and political expert from Sadia, Morocco, and another author from London.
Dr. Barrett, always a pleasure.
Have you?
Hope you're safe and doing well.
We know the ceasefire may have just been announced, but you are not correspondent.
Palestinians have already been killed since the announcement just a couple hours ago.
It's not supposed to take effect until Sunday, January 20th, today.
It seems the Israelis want to continue the genocide up to the very last minute.
Your initial thoughts on the ceasefire level of optimism.
Well, it's extremely good news, of course, says Kevin, but just so disgusting the way the Zionists behave.
The Palestinian side, once the ceasefire is announced, even though it doesn't take effect until Sunday, they're not going to be going around trying to kill Israeli civilians, children, and women.
They're probably not even going to be blowing up Israeli tanks, because they're decent human beings who can get to the spirit hub.
We're having a ceasefire here.
Even it doesn't officially begin until Sunday.
But the Zionists are just cartoon villains.
They've been behaving so abominably for over a year.
It's hard to believe.
It's hard for them to stop.
They just can't resist the opportunity to commit more murders before the ceasefire goes into effect.
And you know, as good news as this is, and if it all plays out, well, God willing, then, we'll be so happy.
The most intense phase of the genocide of Palestine has ended, and inshallah, the whole genocide will eventually grind to a halt.
But we're not going to forget this, and we cannot let ourselves imagine these people are going to change their stripes overnight.
As we've seen, they're still killing people, even though the ceasefire has been announced.
What kind of people are these?
It's outrageous.
Another point to make just quickly before we go to other guests.
The ceasefire comes in on Sunday, so it's in time for the inauguration of Donald Trump.
And this reminds me of what happened in 1980, when the Reagan-Bisch campaign timed the release of American hostages in Tehran, where the incoming Reagan admin, after having helped bring down the Carter admin, they're back-channel dealing with the Iranian government at the time.
And that didn't work out all that well for Iran.
Given the Reagan-Bush admin wasn't really any better than Carter had been, to say the least.
Nobody expected a Trump admin to really be any better than Biden.
This unexpected move, Trump pressuring Netanyahu and his evil government to get a ceasefire done, that's a good sign.
I certainly wouldn't put a faith in this crazy ultra-signist Trump admin in terms of what kind of policies they'll be pursuing.
Before we go to Sakadadu out of London, Dr. Barrett, quick, I want to put this question.
How do you assess the winners and losers of this 15-month campaign, militarily, politically, and in the sphere of public opinion between Palestinians and Israelis?
This is an overwhelming victory for the Palestinians.
Netanyahu and the Israeli government clearly announced the goals of the war, which were to completely destroy Hamas, so there would be no Hamas left when they were done.
And to free the captives by military means.
They completely failed.
The Israeli military called far more of their own captives than they rescued.
And Amos is stronger now than it was in October of 2019. And Antony Belenkin just admitted as much.
He stated publicly, Amos is recruiting more than enough to replace his fighters who are martyred.
Joachim, your thoughts.
Yeah, that's what all it's done is increase the motivation.
You know, I mean, all the children who have lost parents, you know what's going to happen, because that's the legacy of all this war and subjugation of the apartheid government on the Palestinian people, that these young people grow up hating Israel.
And ready to join Hamas as the freedom fighters or resistance movement, which is, of course, a worthy cause from their point of view.
It's called survival.
And so, yeah, I mean, I don't really expect a whole lot of difference between Biden treatment of Israel and Trump's.
Because...
The City of London money changers are in charge of both of them.
Republican, Democrat, it really doesn't much matter.
The agenda is to basically give Israel everything it needs to continue doing the genocide.
All those bombs, the 40, what, 6,000?
And you know that's a low count.
So we're talking, I mean, they've...
You know, there's so many people buried under the rubble still.
That place is completely just burnt to the ground with bombs.
There's very few buildings left.
They're all in the tents now, and they're going after them in the tents.
They have been from the very beginning.
I don't think a whole lot's going to change.
They say, okay, 42 days, we're going to not.
All you have to do is go on the history of Netanyahu.
He does not follow through on any ceasefire, and he's already made accusations that Hamas is already violating the ceasefire conditions.
So I can't, you know, unfortunately, I don't like to be pessimistic, but I'm a realist, and I look at history, and I have to say...
I don't think a whole lot's going to change.
There's going to be a lot more violence and a lot more death, probably.
Right.
History is going to record this Gaza Holocaust.
The documentaries are going to start to be produced as soon as it's over.
I think this is a very real and a very ugly situation, but from a historical perspective...
People tend to forget that wars happened well after they're done and well after they're won because the victor basically gets to set the spoil.
Right now, Israel has been doing everything they possibly can to wipe Gaza off the map, and that includes committing such atrocities as beating and murdering doctors and nurses, murdering Palestinian police, making sure the aid convoys that are heading on in can be robbed by gangs.
It's terrible.
They're shooting children in the chest and in the head so that they can't have a future and can't have a generation that rises up against them.
They make sure that the people are sick without sanitation or without medical help.
They torture their prisoners.
It's truly evil, and it's about as evil as men can commit.
And if you were to come out of World War II and the soldiers...
When they came back to America and told the things they saw, whatever they saw, we know that some of it was very, very bad.
I would say that right now what's been happening while the whole world watches, because the world's been basically accusing Israel of war crimes for quite a while, I imagine that this Holocaust will be even worse than the original in terms of the pure brutality of it.
That said, I think that the The internal structure of the Zionist regime or Israeli structures, and I look at it like there's Jews who are the people just like Americans would have a middle class, lower class, whatever.
Then there's deep staters in America who are the people that we're all totally against.
Well, for Israel, they have the Zionists and they have the hardcore Israelis that are at the top after domination and world control.
Those are the state actions.
But I think it's the Zionists that are the ones that have the truly evil motives that just have appetites that cannot be controlled.
And so we'll see if, like, the American people can possibly elect a leader to rise up against the deep state, if the Jews can elect a leader to rise up against their Zionist puppeteers at this particular point in time.
I don't have a tremendous amount of confidence that it can take place just because the power structures are so well developed.
But the good news is the educational institutions in Israel are beginning to turn on their own.
I have a couple of quotes here.
One is the professor of Holocaust history at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
And what he's saying now, Jewish history will be henceforth be stained with the mark of Cain for the most horrible of crimes, which cannot be erased from its forehead.
The second one is Roz Segal, the associate professor for genocide studies.
At the study of modern genocide at Stockton University, and he says, but the assault on Gaza can also be understood in other terms as a textbook case of genocide unfolding in front of our eyes.
So if the educational institutions are beginning to catch on, can they change the next generation to make sure it happens again?
I doubt it, but I do have hope that there are still some good people left inside the structure that are going to start to kick against.
What we as Americans would call our deep state structure, what they would call the Zionists.
Yes, yes, let us hope.
Meanwhile, journalists dragged out a press conference for confronting Anthony Blinken on Gaza genocide.
General Sam Mazzotti and Mac Blumenthal detailed Secretary of State Blinken's final press conference by confronting him on his support for the Gaza genocide.
Here we have Dropsite pleading.
Here he was speaking about it before he got hauled out.
My final word for Tony Blinken, Secretary of Genocide, and his smirking press secretary, Matt Miller.
De-censored news, must see.
Matt Blumenfeld got a press of Antony Blinken about Israel's genocide.
Three hundred reports in Gaza were on the receiving end of your bombs.
Why did you keep the bombs flowing when we had a deal in May?
Why did you allow the Holocaust of our time to happen?
Cassidy was physically dragged out of the room by a group of police.
Asking Blinken what he knows about Israel's use of the Hannibal Directive.
Willie Lowry tweets, Sam Musuni forcibly removed from the briefing room after interrupting Blinken's final press conference.
Meanwhile, Britain-Ukraine signed a hundred-year agreement.
Britain and Ukraine have signed a 100-year agreement Thursday with Britain, pledging to provide Ukraine with $3.6 billion in military aid this year.
The deal was announced during a joint news conference in Kiev at the presidential palace, where British PM Kyrstenberg joined Ukrainian President Volteber Zolansky.
Starmer is on his first trip to Ukraine since he took office.
Starmer called the agreement historic.
He said the new partnership reflects a huge affection existing between our two nations.
The partnership will include cooperation in the areas of culture, education, science, and technology.
Regarding military assistance, Sharma said Britain planned to provide Ukraine with a loan of more than $2.6 billion.
He said the loan will be paid back not by Ukraine, but from the interest on frozen Russian assets.
Starmer also was providing Ukraine with 150 artillery gun barrels and a new mobile air defense system.
In his comments, Starmer credited Ukraine's ally, particularly the United States, for contributing to the success Ukraine has had against aggression from Russia.
You say you want to pay tribute to the U.S. for the work that the U.S. has done here, the support they have put in because it's been a...
Vital component of what has been quite an incredible achievement by Ukraine.
Comments came just eight before President-elect Trump.
A critic of U.S. support for Ukraine takes office a day after the new president quick pick to be Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, told a Senate panel, the war must end.
Speaking at its confirmation hearing, Rubio called the conflict a war of attrition and a stalemate.
That must be ended.
He said the first step should be a ceasefire holding ground fighting, which has been for more than a year mostly occurring in eastern Ukraine.
He called the destruction in Ukraine extraordinary, saying it'll take a generation to rebuild.
Meanwhile, a clear indication Ukraine has lost the war.
The Ukrainian Air Force faces a crisis.
Its key personnel are reassigned to infantry roles, threatening aircraft maintenance and combat readiness.
On January 14th, aviation technician and mechanic from Ukraine's 114th Tactical Aviation Brigade appealed for public attention regarding ongoing efforts to reassign brigade personnel to infantry roles.
According to Sergeant Batali, Horjevsky, a member of the unit, the situation is dire.
Posing a significant threat to the combat readiness of the aviation brigade, as reported by galka.ifua.
The brigade servicemen released an official video statement reporting they had been informed about plans to transfer nearly all technicians to infantry roles.
to maintain the brigade's jets.
Previously, 250 were assigned from the brigade.
Now an additional 218 are scheduled for transfer.
We, the aviation and technical personnel, have dedicated over a decade to servicing MiG-29 fighters.
Since 2014, we've operated under extremely challenging conditions, ensuring combat readiness and maintaining our aircraft.
We have also successfully adapted to new aircraft provided by Western Parkers, interactively training the next generation of pilots.
Loss of aviation engineers would have grave implications for the Air Force.
Dimitro Donsav, a senior technician, warned the decision essentially amounts to the gradual dismantling of the Air Force.
He noted that while personnel had been reassigned from the brigade before, The remain technician in Maine to maintain operations, however, with these new reductions, it'll be impossible to serve as a full fleet of aircraft under brigade responsibility.
Later in the day, the general staff of Ukraine issued an official statement addressing the matter, clarifying there are no plans, nor will there be, to transfer for Air Force Specialists to infantry roles on the contrary.
They say the number of tactical specialists in the Air Force has been increased.
However, the general staff acknowledge certain personnel from the Air Force, along with other branches, have been sent a train center to reinforce the ground forces, sign a significant shortage of infantry in several areas.
Despite the ongoing manpower shortage, the Ukrainian army continues to form new brigades.
Yuri!
Botasov, editor-in-chief of Censor.net, reported that President Walensky has halted the creation of new brigades.
This remains to be seen.
The situation involving the 114th Tactical Aviation Brigade is not an isolated case.
It reflects a broader trend across all Air Force units.
The majority of personnel from Guard units responsible for securing Ukrainian airfields As well as portions of air defense and radio engineering troops have been reassigned and continue to be reassigned to the Air Force Infantry Brigade established in 2023 and other units as well.
Joaquin, your thoughts?
Well, if they don't have an Air Force and it looks like with all the engineers and mechanics gone out on the front, I don't see any kind of air defense or air force in Ukraine operating any longer.
It's been negligible pretty much from the start of the war.
You know, and as far as transferring him over to the front line, they've been doing that with the children, basically, from 13, 14 on up.
You know, and what does America do?
What is the advisor, security advisor of America under Trump now?
He's saying, go after those 18-year-olds.
Well, they already went through them.
They're on the 13-year-olds now.
You know, the bottom line is Russian army is advancing all the time.
I think they're going to be pretty much done with the Donbass region, eradicating the Ukraine, you know, entrenchments there.
They're all abandoning their posts.
They're basically giving up, surrendering, and they're making advances on the field very fast now.
So I don't see even very much longer before this war is going to finally end.
And I think that there are elements within the Trump that might actually be in favor of ending it sooner than later.
Trump, of course, made the promise that within 24 hours, well, that's already, you know, everybody knows that's not going to happen.
You know, he wants to get elected, so he says lies, basically.
So, yeah, I do hope and am a little more optimistic that we have...
And end of this war, certainly faster than the one in the Middle East.
Brian?
Yeah.
Okay, so there was two stories there.
And the second story was, basically, if I'm going to isolate it, I'm going to say the Ukraine money-laundering scandal is coming to an end.
Because Ukraine doesn't have any more soldiers to be able to deploy the weapons.
And so we can't justify continuing to send military equipment on over.
So I think that we're going to shut off the faucet now.
Everybody's made as much money as they can possibly make on it.
And Donald Trump's going to theoretically turn it around.
But everybody who needed to get rich has gotten rich.
And now the people of Ukraine are just simply left as the cannon fodder.
To be sent out there to continue to justify the oligarchs getting paid that run the NGOs and all the different military industrial complex apparatus.
Remember what Lindsey Graham said about the Ukraine war.
He said that, oh, the money's not really going over there.
It's going to American military industrial contractors who are producing all the weapons.
And that's where all the profits are held.
And all we're doing is sending them over the weapons so that we can replace our inventory.
And that was my summary of what I thought he said.
Now, the first story was the reporter by the name of, I'm sorry, Sam Husseini and Blumenthal that confronted Blinken.
And one of the things that they said in there was very interesting.
Not only did they point out the atrocities in Gaza, but they mentioned the Hannibal Directive.
Now, I don't know if...
Probably most people aren't familiar with what the Hannibal Directive is, but it's a very controversial directive that's been executed in Israel since 2000. It was used in 2000, 2006 a couple times, 2008 and 2009, 2014 in Rafa and other.
It's been used a lot.
What the Hannibal Directive says is that if you see an injured...
If you, as an Israeli soldier, see an injured Israeli soldier being taken as hostage, you should shoot them so that they can't talk.
In other words, we're willing to eat and destroy and kill our own that we think we won't be able to save just so that they don't share information with Hamas.
Now, it's been used.
Many, many times in Israel's history, it's been documented pretty well that they do that, but just think about the pure insanity of something like that versus the American military, which, you know, obviously it's sort of a no-man-left-behind mindset.
Isn't that correct, Jim?
It's no man left behind in warfare.
Okay, so their position is, no, shoot him.
Shoot him.
It's pretty rotten.
And on October 7th, the majority of the dead amongst the Israelis were by the Hannibal Directive.
Israelis did their own more than the Hamas got them.
Really?
Wow.
I'm glad you picked up on that, Brian.
Well done.
Meanwhile, Trump's orders of inauguration moved inside due to dangerous...
Weather conditions.
In a post of truth social, Trump said weather forecasts, including the wind-shell factor, could take temperatures into severe record lows.
There's an arctic blast sweeping the country.
I don't want to see people hurt injured in any way.
His post continued adding, therefore, I have ordered the inauguration address in addition to prayers and other speeches.
To be delivered in the United States Capitol Rotunda, as was used by Ronald Reagan in 1985. So basically this.
Of course, it may be the weather, or it may be something else.
As Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene opined on Acts, I have personally attended countless rallies for President Trump-provoking extreme weather conditions, from cold to rain to heat.
Is there a security threat other than extreme cold temperatures?
Trump, January 20th, cannot come past enough.
Everybody, even those initially opposed to victory by President Donald Trump and the Trump admin, just want it to happen.
It's my obligation to protect the people of our country, but before we even begin, we have to think of the inauguration itself.
A weather forecast from Washington, D.C., with a wind chill factor, could take temperatures into severe record lows.
There is an Arctic blast sweeping the country.
I don't want to see people hurt or injured in any way.
It is a dangerous condition for the tens of thousands of law enforcement, first responders, police canines, and even horses.
Hundreds of thousands of supporters will be outside for many hours on the 20th.
In any event, if you decide to come, dress warmly.
Therefore, I've ordered the inauguration address, in addition to prayers and other speeches, to be delivered in the United States Capitol Rotunda, as was used by Ronald Reagan in 1985, also because of very cold weather.
The various dignitaries and guests will be brought into the Capitol.
This will be a very beautiful experience for all, especially for the large TV audience.
Others are reporting, something seems fishy about the inauguration.
Is Trump safe?
Marjorie Taylor Greene, I personally attended countless rallies.
I read that Trump broke in extreme weather condition from cold to rain to heat.
Is there a security threat other than extreme cold temperatures?
Not for him, but for the people.
Meanwhile, Iran denies any role in an assassination attempt against Donald Trump.
The Iranian president denied the Islamic Republic has ever attempted to take the life of incoming President Trump.
The FBI charged a man for allegedly playing a role in an Iranian plot to murder the former and future president.
Iranian President Massoud Pashrinkan said in an interview with NBC during Tuesday, We have never attempted this assassination bid on Trump to begin with, and we never will.
Trump was nearly killed in Pennsylvania in July when Thomas Matthew Crook shot him in the ear.
Two months later, Ryan Wesley Routh attempted to shoot Trump on a golf course in Florida.
Tehran was not involved in either plot.
In November, the Department of Justice charged Farhad Shaker for working with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard court to kill Trump.
The case relied on Shaker's testimony and the changing documents concede he is a liar.
Subsequent attempts on Trump's life's campaign claimed the former president was informed by the U.S. intel community.
Regarding real and specific threats from Iran to assassinate him in an effort to destabilize and sow chaos in the United States.
During his first term, Trump significantly escalated tension with Tehran by abandoning the Iranian nuclear agreement and placing sanctions on Iran designed to cripple the nation's economy.
During Trump's final year in office, The U.S. and the Islamic Republic almost entered into a direct war after Trump ordered the assassination of Qasem Soleimani, Iran's top general, while he was on a diplomatic mission in Baghdad at the request of the United States.
Iran responded with a missile strike targeting a U.S. base in Iraq.
The war between Iran and the U.S. is still possible during Trump's second admin, Axios, reported earlier.
There's a real possibility Iran's nuclear facilities could be bombed after Trump returns to the White House.
Pashinkian said that Iran's nuclear program is peaceful.
Iran does not seek war with Washington.
On Friday, CIA Director William Byrne reaffirmed.
Iran is not attempting to make a nuclear weapon.
Joaquin, your thoughts?
Yeah, the CIA director is saying Iran is not pursuing nuclear weapons.
I'm not sure what to believe on that.
I always thought, for deterrence's sake, that they have always been pursuing nuclear weapons.
Just to basically have something to say about Israel.
But, you know, hopefully there won't be a nuclear war.
I don't think there will be.
But, yeah, I mean, they always are looking to blame Iran.
The U.S. government, Washington, has had an axe to grind against Iran for a long time.
Just like they go after Russia, China.
I mean, it's all divide and rule, so they divide the West and the East.
It's been a long-time dynamic that's been in play for, what, 100 years now.
So, yeah, I'm not sure about...
There could be false flags blaming Iran.
I mean, you know, it seems like Trump has more axe to grind Against Iran than any other country more than Russia and China.
Really?
I don't put anything past the US as far as trying to drum up the Middle East war into a huge World War III. That's my biggest concern with Trump coming into office.
Might as well.
And, you know, it suggests it's beholden to Netanyahu and wants to carry out policies that make Israel great again rather than the U.S. Brian, your thoughts?
So, what Donald Trump should do and what he will do are going to be completely different.
What Donald Trump should do is say, forget all these Outside interests, let's focus on our problems right here at home in America.
And we have a foggy, dark cloud over our nation right now because our media does not tell us the truth.
We cannot see the light of day through a dark black box government structure.
We have enough problems domestically to be able to keep the Donald Trump administration busy for the next four years.
He should walk away from any future conflict with Iran and Russia.
Iran has enough problems in the Middle East.
We're not a threat to Iran.
Russia doesn't want trouble with us.
The Middle East doesn't want trouble with us.
Trump should return to his original position that NATO is of no value to America.
Separate himself out from it.
Let Israel be Ukraine and Russia's problem, not ours.
We're responsible for the conflict, but that was under a different leadership, and I think the whole world tomorrow will know that things are completely different.
We need to focus on our debt issues.
We need to be able to cut back this military-industrial-security complex that funds and runs false flag operations against American citizens to get us to support, from a dumb, stupid populist perspective, the continued spending for more security and more development of the internal security.
We should walk away from all of these outer issues and focus just on ourselves.
Look, we're not sitting on any moral high ground that allows us to be Team America World Police.
The world has stopped believing in America as the moral high ground a long, long time ago.
We don't have it anymore, and there's no future value to having it.
I think the only future value to be in maintaining U.S. hegemony, Western-powered hegemony worldwide is to prevent the U.S. dollar from collapsing worldwide, which right now BRICS is coming together and possibly threatening it.
So what Trump should do, what Trump will do, what's more important to you?
All these domestic issues related to the border, related to foreign affairs, related to whatever, or do we want to see an economy crash?
So, in other words, aren't we willing to continue to be caught up in these global nasty affairs that destroy confidence in the American structure at the expense of our economy?
You know, that's a tough call for many.
Americans, from a practical, capitalistic perspective, from a moral perspective, the decision's very easy.
But we're so far in debt and we're so beholden to the British banksters and all of the Zionist banksters that are out there.
I think our country was actually sold post-Civil War when the U.S. took money from Rothschild interests and basically created a different style that we would continually have to repay them for the cost of that Civil War.
I just think that we're in so much trouble, we're going to have to break loose.
I'm not worried about the border.
I'm not worried about trying to impose new rules that say we have to stop every Mexican we see and check their ID to make sure they're legal.
In time, the criminals will be sorted out and deported if we just stick to a deportation policy and close down the border.
So I don't want to hear any chatter about we're going to run some big campaign to export all of the imports.
Let's just let those chips fall where they may, because we don't know the difference between somebody who's here legally and illegally.
And how are you going to do that?
Show me your ID.
Well, this is America.
The police just simply can't do that.
So that's my overall take on the situation.
Very, very interesting.
There's some speculation.
Trump might call for an international financial summit.
Good tip to resolve, but honestly, I think the BRICS have the high ground, financially, economically, politically.
Joaquin, your thoughts?
Yeah, they're moving to replace the U.S. dollar, that's for sure, and they're sure popular around the world.
I mean, you know, the Global South has been flocking to join BRICS, and, you know, what, Indonesia, which is a big power in the Far East here?
You know, they're now a member.
Iran's a member.
I mean, yeah, I mean, more and more nations are turning to bricks to represent their economic interests, as well as, I think, to some extent, military.
So, yeah, we have a lot of work to do if we're going to stay competitive in the world economic market, that's for sure.
The best things that Trump could do is get out of NATO, abolish the Federal Reserve, you know, and basically work on America prosperity for a change because everything has been, you know, with our focus so much on controlling the world as the world bullying policemen, we have depleted our own capability as a power.
And perhaps resolve the national debt by printing one coin worth the equivalent of the national debt and giving it to the Fed.
We need some kind of jubilee from this intent, which is insane, where Jack already recognized that it was ridiculous to be paying a consortium of private banks' interest for printing the currency of the United States when the Department of Treasury could do it for no interest at all.
Don, take us out.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, it looks like we are a target for all kinds of things here.
And our money, our world, and trying to control it.
And now with a new start coming up, boy, it looks like it's going to be, we've got to pay attention to what's going on because a lot is happening all at once here.
Headlines here that looks like Israel has just pardoned 70 inmate, not inmates, hostages.
That was on the screen here at this hour.
So there might be some breakthroughs happening on the peace side here.
Let's pray that the world sees peace in Trump's time here.
So thanks for watching this first hour of truth.
This is all that news out there.
This is News International now.
I'm Donald Garner, host, and I hope to see you coming back and sharing this with your friends, too, because this is important stuff that we're just not going to get anywhere else.
So thank you for watching.
