And let me start the timer here.
Oh, come on.
Yeah, okay.
Three, two, one.
And welcome, folks, to Truth versus News, Incorporated here on the 11th of August, 2025.
More heat in Seattle than everywhere.
And the news is hot, and we have got a hot scope for you today.
I'm Donald Gran, the host and producer, and doing everything I can to get this show out.
You can help me, by the way, if you want to put it on different websites.
Go ahead.
Anyway, I'll just let you know that I have with me one and only James Spencer who wrote this famous book here, Nobody Died at Sandy Hook, and he's defending this in court right now.
So you want to probably learn about that.
And of course, he did little books like this one here about North and Nuka 9-11.
JFK, these are just minor little incidents that happened in the world that we forgot about that he wrote a book about.
Anyway, he's great and doing, he's got a new seminar coming up.
And we have Brian Davidson.
He's a private IO out of Texas.
He's just started a new business today.
And he's doing this fantastic all over the place.
He's so sharp and insightful.
And then we have Joaquim, the author and investigator and knowing of all the things deep in the world because he graduated from West Point and been a military advisor, been there, done that.
And with that, I think we'll get going on the show.
I think we have some things going on with Trump and Putin and Russia and all kinds of things here.
You're right, Don.
And of course, Joaquin is the world's leading expert on pedophilian politics.
Meanwhile, we have cold hard land, cold, hard bargain.
Putin and Trump head off for Alaska, where they're going to meet on Friday.
The Berning Platform has some interesting observations here.
From a stalled war to a broken oil embargo, the Kremlin's leverage has never looked stronger ahead of the August summit.
Steve Witkoff's visit to Moscow has reached a striking shift, marked a striking shift in American rhetoric.
Just a couple of months ago in June and July, Donald Trump was threatening the Kremlin with new sanctions and issuing ultimata.
Now the agenda includes a Putin-Trump summit scheduled for August 15th.
That would be Friday in Alaska.
This 180-degree turn had been accompanied by leagues hinting at possible deals and a return to the thaw in relation to we last saw in the spring.
Meanwhile, biting his lip, Trump listened meekly to Putin's monologue for hours during multiple phone calls.
U.S. President Trump and Russian President Putin have held multiple phone calls and exchanged messages through intermediaries of late.
U.S. officials and people familiar with the president's interaction have told the Wall Street Journal.
Conversations were generally cordial, a senior admin official said, with Trump repeatedly expressing a desire to revive U.S.-Russian relations based on growing economic cooperation.
Putin expressed his claims and main demands, including international recognition of Russia's control over Crimea and the Donbass.
In other words, the efforts of the two leaders to resolve the crisis in Ukraine and in bilateral relations go far beyond the public sphere.
The physical part, visible part of geopolitics is far narrower than the current level of interaction.
We have a discussion now about what you have to do.
That is quite striking, where I think it's important we've been told by professional horse gamblers.
They say, never bet against the form.
Never bet against the form.
If that horse is going to die on the last quarter mile, there's no chance that in the next month he's going to show up, draft, and then do a gallant raid at the end and take the race.
That's not going to happen.
So the form on the Trump administration is basically string the public along, get the headlines, and then try to develop some last-minute leverage, or then some crazy sneak attack comes that derails the peace process.
That's happened multiple times.
So I'm going to bet 50% of my available wager on that happening.
And there's too many parties that want to derail this.
First of all, Zelensky.
Second of all, probably the British.
They're already dialed in for a long war.
And some European countries are the same.
They're well invested in a long, protracted conflict.
Yeah.
So am I going to bet against all that?
Probably not.
So I'm highly skeptical of this because one thing I don't see, Daniel, is I don't see any acknowledgement by Donald Trump about the details of the situation.
I don't see anything coming out of his mouth or any of his advisors that articulates the true nature of the situation because you can't get, there's no deal to be had if the United States, first of all, won't acknowledge that it's a co-belligerent.
All you hear from Trump is they're killing each other.
They're killing each other.
Yeah, but the U.S. is killing Russians and NATO via Ukraine as their proxy.
Russia's not killing Americans, but the U.S. and NATO are killing Russians.
So they're a co-belligerent.
So you can't have a trilateral summit.
It's not going to succeed.
You need a neutral party there to guarantee any negotiations and to be the glue that holds it together.
That would be China or that would be some other major power in good standing.
There's not very many of them left.
Yeah, there aren't many in that problem.
I wonder, Gary, if you could put that comment back up on the screen, what do you think about this?
This is interesting.
Nikos here, I believe, is, I think he's actually a Russian person, but he says that the Russians are very angry, and I mean angry at Putin for even meeting with Witkoff when they know an attack will happen soon.
I think kind of echoes what you said a while ago.
What do you think of that claim here that Russians are mad at Putin?
Well, if you understand the Russian political scene, you'll know that there's a large portion of the population that are quite hawkish.
They want to see this, A, this conflict be wound up and come to some conclusion.
But they also are really furious at having been stabbed in the back by the United States and, of course, Ukraine.
But with Ukraine, it's neither here nor there.
But the U.S. led them along last time to peace negotiations in Istanbul.
Russia sent a full delegation.
And what happened?
Surprise attack, Operation Spider's Web.
I mean, that's just a slap in the face and disrespectful to the Russian Federation.
So they regard and their foreign ministry are not fools.
Lavrov and his team know that the United States is not agreement capable.
They have to demonstrate that they're agreement capable at some point.
And they haven't done it yet.
So they'll still keep the door open.
That's the Russian policy.
Would leave the door open for diplomacy for negotiations, but they're under no illusions as to what the U.S. can do in terms of hold together with some kind of commitment.
The other problem is, you know, Trump can't hold fast to any enduring principles on all this.
There's nothing he can fall back because he doesn't have any knowledge of the conflict.
He doesn't understand the context of it.
He doesn't understand what the terms really mean.
You can tell if he did, you'd hear it from Trump at some point in the last four months, but he hasn't been briefed.
He has no understanding of it.
So he can't respect what the other side is putting on the table.
And so do any of his aides, I have not heard anything articulate or accurate coming from any of his aides.
Okay.
So I have very little confidence that we have anything different going on here than we have before.
Smart guy, very smart guy.
Meanwhile, Russians warn that there are titanic efforts to sabotage the meeting in Alaska.
As a result of the 11th-hour trip from U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witcoff to Moscow, a meeting between Trump and Putin became a reality.
And what's more, both sides now firmly believe there's an acceptable plan being negotiated that will put an end to the war in Ukraine.
What exactly the plan is, the public has not been told, which leaves plenty of space for the mainstream media to fill in the blanks with propaganda aimed at disrupting the summit and the peace process.
Besides that, there's the fact that, as expected, Ukraine has not been put in a, has been put in a secondary position out of the main discussion.
And the same goes for any of the war-mongering European leaders.
Joaquim, your thoughts.
I think that Putin is going to maintain, he's going to basically dictate the conditions of the end of this war, either with Trump folding and conceding on all counts, or he will go all the way to the Polish border and do it himself.
Putin will.
So it's like Trump enters this without any kind of bargaining chip leverage at all.
And, you know, so it's kind of just an empty gesture to kind of like inflate the ego of Trump because he wants to play deal maker, peacemaker, you know, because he's not been doing a very good job on that lately.
And so, you know, it's to save face.
That's what it's all about for Trump.
And Putin's not going to change.
He's put it out there even before he entered with his special military operation into Ukraine.
He put it all out there.
He wanted to change the security architecture with Europe so that the border nations of Russia in Europe respect neutrality, which is something that every nation has the right to demand of its neighbor.
And then he was willing to work out whatever conflict interests are not the same as Russia.
He's willing to work it out.
And he's up against, I think, a growing population within Russia.
They've supported him all along, but they're getting impatient.
It's now, what, you know, it's going to be coming up on four years, I guess.
So, you know, it's like it's got to come to an end.
So Putin is under some pressure to, you know, but he's done the war of attrition and they've done it very well because they are out of weapons and they're out of soldiers now, Ukraine.
So he's got all the bargaining chips and he should not, you know, there was writing up, you know, in the mainstream media saying something about some kind of swap of territory.
Bullshit.
He has no obligation to give Ukraine any territory back.
I hope he doesn't.
You know, those annexed regions, they need to stay Russia.
And I think he's going to hold to that.
Don't give any of it away.
Don't freeze the front line and give Ukraine whatever little they have inside the annex regions.
So that's my take on it.
And it's got to come to an end.
And Putin's feeling it.
And I think it's going to come.
But as far as Trump, he has no say in this process, really, much less Zelensky, much less Europe.
You know, they have every motivation.
String it out, keep it going.
Putin needs to just do it his way, because if he gives in to any concessions on the Europe and America's part, Russia loses, and that's no good.
Brian.
Yeah, this is sort of a ridiculous, quote-unquote, historic meeting.
Trump had given him 50 days and now he's giving him 10 days.
And now all of a sudden they had a big talk on the phone and they're going to go up there and meet.
And Putin, strangely, is sending in Kirill Dmitriev, who is a Russian, but a graduate of Stanford University, also Harvard Business School.
He's massively a part of the American establishment and he has worked his career mostly at Goldman Stacks.
He's a young global leader of the World Economic Forum and fundamentally may not be working on Putin's best behalf given the severity of the situation.
From the very beginning, all Russia has wanted is for the Americans to get off their neighboring country's soil.
But it's the U.S. sort of Wolfowitz doctrine that has declared that our goal is to prevent the rise of any power that can resist American hegemony and unilateralism.
And so we're the ones that have started this conflict.
We're the ones that have orchestrated the Maidan Revolution to overthrow the then democratically elected Russian leader and install a puppet government that included Zelensky.
Then we went and armed them to the teeth.
We went ahead and followed and went against everything that we had promised to do and set up all our military installations on their borders.
And fundamentally, that's the big issue.
The question is, is Putin negotiating for an end to hostilities or is Putin negotiating for an end to Western aggression toward Russia in all the Western-style attempts to weaken them?
So, the question is: Is Putin's going to ask Trump to rein in the military-industrial complex?
And Trump isn't going to be capable of doing it.
I'm not even sure anybody's capable of doing it at this particular point in time.
So, if that's the case, I guess you're just negotiating about a bunch of fluffy cloud pie-in-the-sky ideas because Trump can't control the military-industrial complex, which has decided that Russia is the big enemy and that we've got to have a big enemy.
And in order to have constant war and constant replenishing of armaments and money laundering programs, we've got to have war someplace.
So, at this particular point in time, it looks like it's going to be all Western indications are that we're going to keep up with the spending.
Trump had a chance to end it, but he chose not to go against the military-industrial complex, the World Economic Forum, and all the NATO forces that were set and UN forces that were setting themselves up on Russia's border.
So, I would say Trump doesn't have the power to negotiate anything if he doesn't have the power to shut down the military-industrial complex.
I'd like to make one more point.
Go ahead.
All that's going to happen here, regardless of what happens in Alaska, is the plan is America is going to ship their weapons to Europe, and Europe's going to, quote, buy them.
It's all on paper, you know.
Everybody's in debt, you know.
It just gets into bigger debt.
But that's the plan: American weapons are going to be used to kill Russians by the Ukraine through Europe.
That's all it is.
You know, it's no real change.
You know, this is a face-saving mission for Trump.
He's trying to make himself look relevant when he's not.
And as far as the Wilfrowitz doctrine of not allowing any other nation to rise to rival the United States, too late.
You got Russia on the one hand, China on the other.
Wolfowitz, I'm sorry, you're no longer relevant.
Isn't he dead?
Say again, yeah.
Meanwhile, Russian, this is a staggering story.
Russia intercepts adrenochrome shipment from Israel containing the blood of 10,000 children.
10,000 children.
According to a leaked report from Russian Intel, an Israeli vessel carrying the largest adrenochrome shipment ever recorded was intercepted by Russian forces in the Taurus Naval Base in Syria.
Destination, Hollywood, USA.
The cargo was labeled as medical humanitarian hate.
What Russia found inside was anything but sealed crypto canisters, military-grade cold storage units, and virals marked with serial codes linked to backsite hospitals in war zones.
Putin's adrenochrome task force briefed the Kremlin just hours after the bust.
Early estimates say the batch was refined from the blood of at least 10,000 children, many allegedly harvested from the chaos of Ukraine, Syria, and Gaza.
No doubt.
Anyone could continue to have any belief in Israel after this find is disgracing themselves.
This is horrific.
Meanwhile, Ukraine continues to hit Russia with drones.
We have the head of the Ukrainian armed forces declaring that they have hit 23,000 Russian targets announced by the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of Ukraine.
The general stress that unmanned system have become an important component of the armed forces and together with infantry and artillery. are the key to success in deterring the enemy.
According to him, in July, drones destroyed 23,400 enemy targets, FPV drones and night bombing, drones that counted for the lion's share of the damage, and their efficacy is growing.
Meanwhile, Europe backs Zolansky again.
Throughout her body, neutralize points to try and bring this long and bloody war to an end.
But what we have now in these last days, really, this whole thing started just a few days ago when Trump announced this meeting between Russia and the United States, set off a flurry of activity all over Europe and, of course, in Ukraine.
And now that you have what we're starting to see now, there's basically four various parties that are involved in this, and each is trying to exert its views and to try and get something good out of this.
You have, of course, the Russians, you have the Americans, you have the Ukrainians, and you have the Europeans.
And in some places, they overlap, and in some places, they contradict.
And in fact, we'll see that there are more contradictions on the three Western side than they are on the Russian side.
And all of this is going to come down to a big head on Friday when President Trump meets Vladimir Putin on American territory.
Now, let's back up a little bit to Friday to kind of see where the sides are, because since Trump made his comments on Friday, there's been additional comments by Zelensky.
There's been additional comments by the Europeans.
There hasn't been anything new from Russia so far, at least nothing that's been publicly announced.
But his positions are really pretty standard and static, and they have probably not changed.
And that's going to factor into this as well.
Let's take a look, first of all.
This is what President Trump said he wanted to accomplish and why he's thinking that this war can be brought to an end.
And in these meetings, he's expecting some land to be swapped.
Well, you're looking at territory that's been fought over for three and a half years with, you know, a lot of Russians have died, a lot of Ukrainians have died.
So we're looking at that, but we're actually looking to get some back and some swapping.
It's complicated.
It's actually nothing easy.
It's very complicated, but we're going to get some back.
We're going to get some switched.
There'll be some swapping of territories to the betterment of both.
Yeah, to the betterment of both.
I mean, I hear you.
That's ideally what you would like in any kind of negotiations.
But when you're talking about the bad blood between the two sides and the number of people that have been killed on each side of that line, there's not going to be anything that either side is going to come out and agree.
This is to our betterment.
When you have a situation on the ground that favors one side over the other, you've got to have some pretty big incentives for the side with the power dynamics on its favor to be able to agree to something that would come out to the benefit of the side on the weaker side of this.
Is just common sense in war.
It's been that way for millennium throughout human history, really.
And for Trump to say, hey, we want to have some land swapping.
Of course, the first question is, what is he talking about?
And there's been a lot of speculation on that because it's pointed out correctly by many that there's virtually no Russian territory that Ukraine has possession of.
So we certainly aren't talking about this tiny little sliver of a village in the Sumi or north of the Sumy area inside of Russia.
So they're definitely not talking about that.
The only thing that makes any sense at all is that he's talking about where the Russians have a foothold in the Sumy region and in two different spots of the Kharkiv region and possibly even part of the Dnipro-Petrovsk region in the east.
It could be that Russia is saying, or that Trump rather is thinking, hey, we'll swap that.
Russia will withdraw from that.
In exchange, Ukraine will withdraw from the Donbass, etc., through the administrative borders here.
That may happen because it could be that Russia says we don't really want the territory in Sumy and Kharkiv because they're pretty small.
They're not that big.
It doesn't provide any particular utility to Russia.
So I can imagine they would pretty easily, quote, swap that.
So if that's what Trump's thinking about, then probably that is something that Putin would be willing to do.
But then we get to the hard issues, and that, of course, is the four oblast into the right into the east of the country.
And that is where the problem comes in because Putin has said since June of 2024, he wants Ukraine to withdraw from all of that down to the administrative borders, which include still significant portions of the southern three provinces that Ukraine still has possession of.
Well, let's take a look now at what Trump also said about how he wants peace and what he's expecting Zelensky to do.
President Putin, I believe, wants to see peace, and Zelensky wants to see peace.
Now, President Zelensky has to get all of his everything he needs because he's going to have to get ready to sign something.
And I think he is working hard to get that done.
Yeah, see, now then you're really getting into the rub because President Trump is laying the expectation that there's going to be some territory swapped, and Zelensky is going to have to note his words there.
Zelensky is going to have to sign something.
So President Trump is expecting Zelensky to do what Zelensky has said he doesn't want to do and what Zelensky has been fighting for three and a half years not to do, and that is to validate the actual loss of the territory, whatever turns out to be the case here.
Whether that's what Putin wants or Trump's trying to get some middle ground or something, because there's apparently some idea that maybe Trump is trying to get Putin to agree to only where the line of contact is in Zaporizhia and Kirson oblast in the south, that probably won't fly.
But in any case, that may be what he's thinking.
Well, Zelensky's not having any of that.
In fact, what Zelensky said, subsequent to the soundbite we showed yesterday, he's even more emphatically against this now.
When he took a contingent on our borders, this led to a full-scale war and occupation of other parts of Ukraine.
Now Putin wants to see him the conquest of the south of our Kherson, Запорожье, full territory of Lugansk, Donetsk, Krim.
This second attempt of separation of Ukraine, we will not give Russia to Russia.
Mr. Dick Strump, on two major issues there.
The first.
The first one is that he says this, you know, I don't want just some kind of ceasefire later on.
I want an immediate and unconditional ceasefire.
That's what he's been asking for for a long time because that's what Ukraine desperately needs, both in the air, the sea, and on the ground.
That's what they want.
They want an unconditional just stop the fighting and then let's talk.
Trump's not even talking about that.
He hasn't even mentioned anything about an unconditional ceasefire.
Now, he had been said, to be fair, he had set a deadline of yes on Friday that if Putin had not agreed to an unconditional ceasefire, by then he was going to level sanctions and tariffs.
Well, that went by the wayside, just like every other deadline that Trump has set.
Recall, bears repeating, he's going to get it signed and the war over with in 24 hours.
Then it was going to be 100 days.
Then it was going to be a few days.
And then it was going to be 50 days.
And then it was going to be 10 days.
And that every one of those deadlines come and gone and nothing happens.
And that's the case again this time as well.
And now Trump's not even talking about ceasefire anymore.
Now he's only talking primarily about swapping of land.
And then I think he makes so many excellent points.
Joachim, your thoughts, my friend.
Well, getting back to the Adrenochrome, there's no surprise.
Hollywood has been beating off the adrenochrome to stay beautiful off the children's blood, tortured children's blood for many years now, along with the politicians, all the, they're all doing it.
You know, Gore was caught with a suitcase full quite a few years back of adrenochrome.
It's the most despicable reality outside of sodomy against children.
They go to hand in hand, let's face it.
So it's disgusting.
And who are the biggest pushers of this stuff?
Ukraine and Israel.
The two countries that are the worst of all countries.
You know, Ukraine has forever been the most corrupt country.
It's gone down, you know, all classified for many years as the most corrupt because they have the most human trafficking, child trafficking, organ trafficking, adrenocrum trafficking, and Israel.
Same deal.
The adrenochrome and the human trafficking, the organ trafficking, they're the king of all organ trafficking in the world, Israel.
So it's just pure disgusting, not to mention what Israel is doing to the people to eliminate them off the face of the earth with the Palestinian.
And the world, I'm sure we're going to get more into it, but the world is so fed up with Israel now that, you know, we anyway.
And then on to the drone situation.
You know, they're trying to tout 23,000 targets hit, you know.
Well, first of all, the air defense on the Russian side has been able to stop, you know, at least 90 plus percent of all the rockets, all the drones, missiles, all of it.
So that's a lot of bullshit.
But the ones that have gotten through, they've been hitting here and there a few of the civilian targets, which again tells you the morality is completely different from the rest, how the rest of the world fights wars.
There are international rules about war, and one of them is you're not supposed to go against civilian targets.
Well, guess what?
Israel and Ukraine are the chief perpetrators of that rule.
They constantly are hitting civilian targets, you know.
So, yeah, and then, you know, I guess the last point with the Lieutenant Colonel Dan, who's very good, by the way.
You know, they had, again, America has no stakes.
Well, they have plenty of stakes, but they're not going to get their way come Friday.
It's going to be Putin dictating all the terms.
And if they don't go along with it, which we know that Europe is not going to, and Zelensky's still saying, no, you can't hold on to Crimea.
That's Ukraine.
You know, this guy's a nutcase.
They need to get rid of him.
You know, there was a serious talk, you know, like a week ago on how they were going to replace him with the general who's now the ambassador of Britain for Ukraine.
So we need to get a change in the supposed leader of Ukraine along with basically it's going to come down to Russian terms.
They're going to go all the way to the border.
I don't see anything getting worked out because there's talking about swapping territory.
No, it's not a swap.
It's already been a done deal from four years ago almost.
So yeah, there's not going to this.
This is all just a waste of time.
I don't even know why Putin's even going through to go to Alaska.
Not to mention the security involved.
He could easily get bumped off there.
He's not exactly in safe ground there in Alaska.
So I think the liability of Putin to go to Alaska for nothing that's going to come out of it, because the West is not willing to be real on the reality of the conditions on the ground in Ukraine.
So it's not going to, anything they talk about is not going to get followed up on because Putin's not going to concede on the main points he's been trying to drive home for four years now.
My advice would be he should send a double.
He should not go himself personally.
I agree 100%.
Brian.
Well, as for the adrenochrome article, you know, I'm a little bit careful when things originate from the People's Voice website.
To me, that's kind of on the same par with Before It's News and some of the other ones.
Just to give you some context, the People's Voice website has released over, Baxter Dimitri, particularly as the quote-unquote author, has released over 120 articles making various claims about adrenochrome.
And I'm not exactly sure that somebody can be gathering that much information while they're putting out two to three articles a day.
I took a careful look at the article and I wasn't convinced that there was anything that was verifiable within the article, except for him to say someday he'd release the information.
He made claims about Hulk Hogan exposing the adrenochrome industry and he's the one that came up with Michael Jackson.
And I mean, like I said, 120 articles just over the last couple of years with the title adrenochrome.
And so I get the feeling that there's a lot of hooks in there.
Now, it wouldn't surprise me if intelligence forces intercepted an adrenochrome supply.
The blood of 10,000 children is a pretty tall order for me.
So, just so you know, I probably wouldn't be putting that one up on your Facebook profile too quickly.
As for what's continuing to happen within Russia, I don't see.
Look, we can all agree that there's puppets everywhere.
And there's been a lot of chatter about Putin being a World Economic Forum type puppet for years.
I don't believe that that's the case anymore.
There's been conspiracies about everybody being part of the secret club.
And maybe it's true on some level that everybody is.
One thing for sure, Zelensky is a puppet, an actor.
It looks like he was basically drafted into his position by CIA and intelligence agencies.
And then when we went in and controlled the Maidan revolution, we used him as our puppet to put him into place.
I don't think Putin falls on the same level in that.
And yes, while I agree it's going to be a waste of time, again, Russia has the power to at least negotiate to try to get Trump to do something about the military-industrial complex.
And the question comes down to: does, I think it's fundamentally, does Trump have the power to rein anything in?
I don't care about mineral swaps or land swaps.
I don't care.
Russia's always wanted one thing, get off, get the military installations off our border.
And I just don't think that that's something that Trump has the power to agree to at this point in time.
So it wouldn't surprise me if a false flag was set up or some sort of, you know, Putin's a bad guy.
He's not going to go for it.
And Trump did his best, but unfortunately, we've got to blast him off the map is the narrative that ends up coming out of this as things get worse.
Very good.
I'd like to make one more point, too.
Go ahead.
Go right ahead, Buckingham.
Basically, we have the money changers of the world, you know, follow the money.
There's the power.
That's why we have nonstop war.
And what is done in the adrenochrome production industry is going to all the war zones around the world and take the little kids there that are being blown up, particularly, of course, in Gaza, and taking their blood and their organs.
You know, that's how the adrenochrome is captured in a lot of cases, because the children in the war zones become the victims that are adrenochrome.
So that's another point.
So, yeah, you know, I get your point, Brian, about that particular website that puts it out.
I'm a little bit leery about it myself, but they go where a lot of other, you know, don't go in exposing things too.
So I give them some credit, but I'm a little bit wary about it.
But as far as adrenochrome being a major money maker in the world that's all black market, yes, it is for real.
And it's on the war zones where it's especially collected, the blood.
Very good.
Meanwhile, Trump Badman is indeed actively involved in ethnic cleansing.
I think we've all known this right away.
Here we have the Israel Palestine News making that assertion on Gaza, war on Gaza Day, 672.
Can you believe Israeli forces killed at least 36 aid seekers.
In total, Israel killed at least 1,743 aid seekers since May 27, 2025.
Total number of Palestinians have died from malnutrition, 212, including 98 children.
That's a gross understatement.
The number is going to skyrocket.
Have no doubt about it.
Gaza death toll is going to be overwhelmingly higher than we have been told without any doubt.
Meanwhile, Israel Smotrich says he's lost faith in Netanyahu and favors, guess what?
A more brutal approach.
That's the Israeli way.
Israeli hardliner far-right finance minister Benzel Smotrich has said he's lost confidence in Prime Minister Netyah's war position on Gaza.
The far-right minister was referring to, was referring on Saturday to his objection to the gradual plan to fully occupy the enclave as he favored an immediate and sweeping carnage coupled with illegal Israeli settlements in Gaza.
The notorious minister who advocates for the forcible displacement of Palestinians from Gaza alongside its settlement said in a video in the last cabinet meeting early Friday, I lost faith that the Prime Minister Ganon wants to lead the Israeli army to decisive victory.
The war cabinet approved Prime Minister Netyahu's gradual plan to fully occupy Gaza and displace Palestinians from the north to the south, a move that has faced opposition from Israeli due to the danger it poses to the lives of captives.
Even the Israeli military, the chief of staff, has been opposed.
And Netanyahu unsurprisingly threatened to fire him if he didn't go along with it.
Joachim, your thoughts.
Yeah, that's Smolrich.
He's an animal himself.
He regards everybody else who's non-Jewish as animals, especially Palestinian.
Well, he's the animal, really.
Just look at what he's come out and said in the course of the last few years.
This guy is a savage.
He deserves not to be alive.
And, you know, for him to be like calling out Netanyahu for being too soft.
Oh, my God.
You know, the war criminal genocidal king, Netanyahu, is being too soft, according to him.
Yeah, it's a disgusting situation.
And they're going for gusto, but they're having trouble.
They're not going to win this war.
They haven't been winning.
This war of attrition, you know, Gaza is still alive.
Gaza has not moved.
They're still in there in that very closed, small little space that's in demolish.
I mean, it's like 95% of all the buildings are gone now.
It's all rubble now.
But somehow they're able to have their underground tunnel system and they're able to still maintain communications.
They still have their weapons and they're still fighting resistance.
You know, and I applaud Gaza for being able to stay in there this long.
In the meantime, we have the Israeli military running out.
The guys are deserting.
The guys are not willing to go back for a third and fourth time.
And their population is thinned out.
A whole bunch of the Israelis got out while they could.
And so there's a real war of attrition.
Israel is in far dire shape in this war of attrition than our Gaza soldiers.
So, you know, that.
But the terrible thing, obviously, is the death of all the children and the women and the civilian population of Gaza underneath the rubble.
I mean, you know, they come out with the numbers, but those are only ones that actually have bodies that can be counted.
The ones under the rubble, I'm sure, are three times, four times the amount of that quote number they're quoting.
So, yeah, I mean, it's a 2.3 million population in this 25-mile strip there, seven miles wide at the widest.
And it's a very concentrated population density-wise.
And it's all rubble.
So, I mean, you know, I wouldn't doubt that there's a thousand people that are dead, much less all the injured people, too.
I mean, you know, yeah, it's just a dire situation.
You know, the kind of a positive thing is more and more countries are saying, okay, enough is enough.
They're feeling the pressure because the whole world, the people, the people that still have a moral conscience are able to see right from wrong, and they're not willing to back Israel, the genocide people, and America, the genocide.
So, you know, finally, they're paying lip service, the governments of Europe and a lot of the Western countries one by one are saying, okay, we'll recognize Gaza now, you know, like that does anything.
You know, they're still dying every day.
You know, that doesn't do anything.
But it's to try and, you know, the pushback of the people all over the world say enough is enough on this horrible humanitarian disaster that we're all passively watching and not doing anything about.
You know, so their resistance to the pushback is to, okay, we'll recognize Gaza or, you know, Palestine.
You know, it's kind of a horrible part of this whole theater operation.
But the people are getting sick of it all over the world.
They're reaching the limit.
Now, what's going to happen?
You know, what is Israel going to get stopped?
That's the big question.
No one's stepping up.
The Arab nations, they're not stepping up, you know, militarily.
They're not doing anything to stop Israel's carnage and America's carnage.
You know, and Trump's still full gusto for supporting Israel.
So, I mean, you know, I don't see a lot changing as far as other than the world is getting more fed up with it.
I don't see on the ground there's not that much changing.
Although, yes, Israel cannot keep it up that much longer.
The war of attrition is going to be won by Gaza.
Well, as I've observed before, there's a point in the starvation where you lose trace minerals that are indispensable to life.
And even if you're fed thereafter, you're destined to die.
And I believe that point has been crossed, by my estimate, between 400 and 500,000 Palestinians.
So we're going to have mass death from starvation here.
They're going to start dropping like flies.
And I'm sorry to say the world has just stood by passively to allow this to happen.
Brian.
You know, I want to highlight something that I think is bright out there.
And this is this whistleblower, Lieutenant Colonel Tony Aguilar.
Now, I listened to his interview with Tucker Carlson, and he sounded like one of the world's most credible men to me.
Now, whether or not that video, which is almost two hours long, is being suppressed, I can't say for sure, but it somehow is at 666,000 views, whereas Tucker Carlson's Bridget McCrone Candace Owens interview eclipsed almost 3.7 million in about the same time as the Aguilar story.
So I have a feeling that the YouTube gods are keeping the story down.
Now, in that interview, Aguilar, as a Green Beret, former Green Beret, was sent in as a civilian, given security jobs, was handed automatic machine guns, was supposed to secure the food distribution sites, and noticed rather quickly that while they're distributing food, they're not distributing water.
Now, as we know, the human body can only last three or four days without water.
And if you give them food that has to be cooked in water, it's not going to go very far.
Aguilar outlined war crimes that he observed personally, including shooting, the Israelis shooting into the people trying to get at the food.
He was sickened by it and disgusted by it, and as anybody with a moral compass ought to be.
And he was willing to come on Tucker Carlson.
Of course, shortly after that, he was skewered by all the normal Israeli propagandists and destroyed.
But I will tell you that he brought a lot of visibility to the issue.
Now, why people like Candace Owens get more traffic than a guy like Tony Aguilar, I do not know, but it just sounds to me like most Americans don't want to think about the atrocities that are taking place in Israel.
And for good reason, we get to have our nice houses and our boats and our cars and our playgrounds, and we feel nice and safe over here.
So we don't want to think about the problem as it's been developing from the very fake October 7th attack on the border, which was, in my opinion,
just nothing more than a cover and a front for a massive land grab campaign that would fundamentally reshape the borders of Israel and get rid of what they consider to be the parasites of Gaza that compete with them.
And the people of Israel and the military forces are losing their appetite for this slaughter that's taking place.
There seems to be larger and larger protests breaking out daily.
And so you hear guys like Smotris, which continue to take the hard line saying that they're going to eliminate or eradicate all the rats over in Gaza.
But on the other hand, groups like the Jerusalem Post and many of the other newspapers are becoming to say, hey, we've won this battle.
This is over.
Why are we continuing this?
Just the other day, there was a letter that was sent to President Trump that was signed by hundreds of top military officials and retired generals and others saying, hey, you've got to put the clamps down on Netanyahu because he's letting the hardliners drag him around by the shortened curlies.
And so, you know, I don't expect Trump to do anything about it, being that Adelphin gave him so much of the resources.
I don't expect Trump to ever double-cross the Israelites or the Hebrews or whatever you want to call the Jews over there.
I don't expect that that's ever going to take place.
So grin and bear it, and let's hope that it becomes another nation's problem because America doesn't have the appetite to get in there and do what needs to be done, which is cut ties, cut the umbilical cord with Israel.
During my show this morning on Revolution Radio, Joe Olson, acting as co-host, said he believes the reason they want to re-occupy Gaza is to destroy evidence of war crimes,
that there are mass burials there, children handcuffed behind their backs who were suffocated to death, buried alive, so many others with a single bullet in the back of the head.
He believes they want to get in there and do a complete excavation to remove evidence of war crime, basically put the bodies through wood chippers, dissolve them in acid, whatever.
And frankly, that, in my opinion, could be a motive.
Joaquin, would you contemplate such a process?
I totally agree.
They want to destroy the evidence and the evidence of genocide in the most horror way.
They are all about just covering up their tracks because they know the whole world has turned against them, as far as people with a moral conscience have turned against them.
And there's going to be condemnation.
Well, we don't even know if Israel is going to exist in the future, really.
So, yeah, it's just cover your ass at this point.
And that's what this is all about, I think.
Don, take us out.
You're muted, my friend.
You are muted, my friend.
I am muted because we still have five minutes.
Well, do another story.
Brian, would you like to add?
No, there's nothing really I want to add on this.
I consider these to be the core issues that are taking over today, but you've also got to remember that BRICS right now is doing everything it can to strengthen itself ahead of the upcoming Trump-Putin summit.
They're making moves with Putin in advance.
They're taking more photo ops, shaking hands.
They're talking about their new currencies and they're talking about the new members that are joining them.
And I would expect that BRICS is going to be used by Putin as a negotiating point to try to get the United States to back off.
I don't know how well that's going to work.
And Trump's tariff system seems to be working in the short term.
But as for all tariff systems, they work in the short term, but they don't necessarily work really, really well in the long term as other nations begin to realign themselves to do their trading.
So I would expect you to see a continued rise of the BRICS conglomerate.
And that's going to continue to threaten U.S. hegemony, and that's going to make us more like a wild dog.
Well, look at the absurdity of Trump saying he wants to get back to good relations with Russia when he's the guy who effed him up.
I mean, he had a perfect opportunity when he came in.
Putin was obviously willing.
And Trump just made one colossal blunder after another, one antagonistic move after another.
Even when Hegset cut off the flow of weapons to Ukraine, it wasn't Trump, though.
At the time, I thought he had been responsible and admired him for it.
But he reversed it.
And he's added all these sanctions on Russia cannot have normal relations with Donald Trump, Joachim.
Yeah, he's a madman.
Trump is a madman.
And he's getting really nervous about the whole Epstein files.
That's been nagging at him for months now.
And it's only going to get worse because it's not going to go away.
He's completely controlled by the people that blackmail and bribe, which means all the evil in the world that is going on, Trump's behind.
So we're not going to really see any change in Trump, except maybe he's going to flip out and start World War III kinetic-wise for the whole world to be involved.
That's a very real possibility because I think the money changers want that.
So, yeah, I don't see any real improvement going on anywhere.
You know, in fact, there seems like there's more hotspots that are boiling over now.
And as far as the rise of BRICS, we brought that upon ourselves.
We politicize economic transactions internationally, the SWIFT system.
We start imposing all these sanctions.
Countries realize their whole economies could be at stake if they had political differences with the United States.
It was a colossal blunder, and we're paying for it massively.
You can't be the bully forever.
That's right.
In the end, the dollar is already rapidly losing its preferred position in the international commercial market.
And that's going to mark the demise of quality of life right here in the U.S.
I expect inflation to skyrocket and the U.S. to collapse.
Am I too pessimistic, Joachim?
No, I think the whole West, Europe included, is both.
They're collapsing.
Western civilization is going into a graveyard.
You know, what remains, you know, it will be completely different and definitely not for the better.
That's where we're headed.
Brian, you may have.
The end is always indicated by a massive and rapid rise in inflation that drives huge quantitative easing and money printing.
And it would not shock me at all if they did what they could to bring the end about to convert us to a central bank digital currency.
I think it's all planned.
I think it's all controlled.
It's a controlled demolition.
It's a planned demolition.
And the BRICS nations are the ones that might be prepared to avoid it.
Although they are themselves talking about a style of central bank digital currency as well.
Don, take us out.
You're kidding.
I thought you were saying here in the middle of August, August 11th, 2025 in beautiful sunny Seattle where it's gorgeous.
I'm enjoying everything that the end is coming.
And I mean, the world is too beautiful a spot to trash it and do with all this political crap.
So we got to pray for peace, folks.
We can continue this show if nothing else.
So this is truth versus the news and all the heavy stuff that's hitting us right now, first hour.
And so you want to come back for the second hour because we got more for you that you're going to need to know.
Not that you're going to want to know about it, but you're going to need to know it.
