| Ladies and gentlemen, it is Monday, January 5th, 2026. | ||
| Here's what's coming up on the Owen Report today. | ||
| Well, no shortage of news from this weekend. | ||
| And it's all starting to tie together with foreign policy and what's happened with the Trump administration and foreign policy in the Middle East, what's happened with the Trump administration and now foreign policy in South America. | ||
| It's all starting to merge. | ||
| And we're starting to get a clearer picture of what it's all about. | ||
| Now, of course, when I present this information today, which is not even going to be my own presentation, really, I'm going to cover the reports, the news stories, the statements from people that are in the Trump administration, part of other countries, governments, or just in the press. | ||
| And I'll lay it all out with all the proof. | ||
| But then if I say it, I'm called crazy. | ||
| I'm called a conspiracy theorist. | ||
| I'm called a hater, all of this stuff. | ||
| But when someone else says it, then it's okay. | ||
| So that just shows you how we really have now moved into total cult territory. | ||
| So when Trump says his top donors are our Israel first, it's great. | ||
| When I say Trump's top donors are all Israel first, I get called names, I get attacked. | ||
| So that's just the proof right there that you're in a cult. | ||
| When two people say the same thing, but depending on who says it determines your reaction to it, that's when you know you're in a cult. | ||
| So we're going to tie all of this together with the drama unfolding now in the Venezuela situation. | ||
| And having a disagreement on policy or having a disagreement on how they're going to enact policy, that's one thing. | ||
| But to be dishonest, to not be honest about what's going on, that I can't stand. | ||
| I'm okay to have a policy disagreement. | ||
| I'm not okay with people lying about what's going on. | ||
| And there's been a lot of that this weekend, hasn't there? | ||
| But it's got to be tough to cope with everything this administration has become. | ||
| So now Trump is ranting against the president of Colombia. | ||
| The president of Colombia, Gustavo Petro, has offered a response. | ||
| We'll have that for you. | ||
| The United Nations is apparently considering all of this. | ||
| It is nice now to hear the administration, specifically Marco Rubio, coming out and basically saying F the UN. | ||
| So, all right, I do like that, but why now? | ||
| It's like, could we have done that years ago? | ||
| Couldn't we have like gotten out of the UN and told the UN to F off day one? | ||
| No, now we're doing it because they're trying to get away in the way of this foreign policy in Venezuela. | ||
| We will be hearing from Marco Rubio. | ||
| It's amazing now. | ||
| For years, we've watched Democrats fail upward. | ||
| We've watched Democrats fall upward and fail to success. | ||
| It looks like Marco Rubio is trying that path now. | ||
| And you can say he's done a good job as the Secretary of State and that's fine. | ||
| But clearly he saw an opening here. | ||
| And I don't know if it was his poll numbers going up or what, but he saw an opportunity to get out in front of the press and try to increase his chances of becoming president in 2028. | ||
| But the problem was he wasn't prepared and he embarrassed himself. | ||
| So now Rubio goes on two mainstream news interviews, basically embarrasses himself, and his poll numbers go up. | ||
| Amazing stuff. | ||
| They're talking about Greenland. | ||
| You've got jets flying over Mexico. | ||
| You've got the new interim president, Del C Rodriguez, saying some interesting things in Venezuela. | ||
| Some very interesting things indeed. | ||
| You've got the color revolution that's being led by Mossad. in Iran. | ||
| That is still going on. | ||
| Oh my gosh, conspiracy theorist. | ||
| Oh my gosh, everything's Israel. | ||
| Again, they said it. | ||
| Former CIA director said it. | ||
| The ambassador of Israel said it. | ||
| They literally come out and say Mossad is running this color revolution in Iran. | ||
| So I say, okay, there it is. | ||
| I report on it. | ||
| I get called names. | ||
| It's the craziest thing. | ||
| Tim Walz looks like his political career is finally over, but he's still not in prison. | ||
| And that's a little annoying. | ||

The cutting edge of news and analysis. | |
| The Owen Report with Owen Schroyer. | ||
| Okay, we got a couple things we're bringing in here before we get started, but let's just get out ahead of it now. | ||
| It looks like 2026 is the year of regime change. | ||
| And I don't really know how you can argue otherwise as we're watching the attempt at regime change in Iran. | ||
| We see what's going on in Venezuela. | ||
| And we'll connect all of these dots for you. | ||
| This has been a plan in place for a long time. | ||
| And I'm not going to go too heavy on the history of it and the long-term plans of it. | ||
| We'll dabble in there a little bit, just enough to prove a point. | ||
| I'm not trying to convince you of this too heavily today. | ||
| But yes, this is a long-term plan. | ||
| It's all about central banks. | ||
| And that's kind of been the issue with the central banks for a long time. | ||
| And a lot of people figured this is why the United States of America's military has been used to topple regimes from Libya to Afghanistan to Iraq, now maybe Iran, Venezuela, wherever. | ||
| It's all about getting everybody on the same central bank. | ||
| And then once you control the world finances, once you control the world's banking, you essentially own the planet. | ||
| You own the globe. | ||
| And once it becomes the digital currency, you're in it now. | ||
| You're in it now. | ||
| And if you do try to have your own currency of some sort, like maybe a Bitcoin, they'll tax that too. | ||
| And they'll find a way to claim that as well. | ||
| It's what they do. | ||
| But okay, I'm watching all of this develop over the weekend, and I'm thinking, well, this is certainly not MAGA. | ||
| And here's your proof. | ||
| Here's your proof. | ||
| Because we see the debate. | ||
| Oh, this is America first and this is good. | ||
| And as long as we're having an open discussion about what's actually happening, I'm okay with having policy disagreements and debate. | ||
| It's good. | ||
| But let me kind of change the view on this to show you that this is really not MAGA and all the people talking about how this is what they voted for and everything else. | ||
| This is going to prove it to you that that is all a lie. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay? | |
| Let's say as the first year of the Trump administration, for all intents and purposes, is, well, it's almost in the book. | ||
| I guess anything could happen in the next three weeks, the next two, three weeks. | ||
| So really, a lot is going to happen in the next two weeks. | ||
| Then we can say this is the first year of the Trump administration. | ||
| But we're almost there as far as the calendar is concerned. | ||
| So what have we gotten? | ||
| We've gotten strikes on Iran. | ||
| We're going for regime change in Iran. | ||
| We've gotten strikes on Venezuela. | ||
| We're going for regime change in Venezuela. | ||
| We've gotten more foreign aid, more foreign aid for Ukraine, more foreign aid for Israel. | ||
| We've got Netanyahu and the Israeli lobby basically running things. | ||
| And you say, that's not true. | ||
| Or you say, no, that is true. | ||
| And that's what MAGA is all about. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Well, we all know what's happened. | ||
| We've all seen what's happened in the first year of Trump's administration. | ||
| So let me prove to you that this is not what people voted for. | ||
| Let me go ahead and show you that that is complete BS and that's not what people voted for. | ||
| If we were standing here today on the 5th of January 2026, if we were standing here today and you had deep state arrests, whoever you want, the Biden crime family, Alejandro Mayorkas, John Brennan, pick whatever subject you want, illegally spying on Trump, stealing an election, creating COVID in a lab, all of it, | ||
| all the deep state corruption that we've had to deal with that we wanted to elect Donald Trump to get in there. | ||
| Some might say revenge, but it's called justice. | ||
| We're looking for justice. | ||
| The people that put Americans in prison for speech, the people that censored our free speech, we wanted deep state criminals arrested. | ||
| So let's say that actually happened. | ||
| Let's say here you are a year into the Trump administration and you've actually gotten a dozen deep state arrests. | ||
| And not only do we get the deep state arrests, because of these arrests, we have now ongoing investigations with witnesses and whistleblowers and now people cooperating into the stolen election, into the illegal spying, into the creation of COVID, into the rollout of the vaccines. | ||
| And we can go on and on and on, into the imprisonment for speech on January 6th, the Fed involvement on January 6th, all of it, on and on and on. | ||
| If all of that was happening today, if all of that had happened in the first year of the Trump administration and we're sitting here talking about it today, reflecting on it today, how many people are going to be bitter? | ||
| How many people are going to be bitter and complaining saying, I wanted regime change in Iran. | ||
| I wanted regime change in Venezuela. | ||
| I wanted to get Maduro. | ||
| I wanted to make sure that Netanyahu was taken care of. | ||
| I wanted to make sure that we were standing up against the International Criminal Court going after Netanyahu. | ||
| I want to make sure that we're protecting Netanyahu from the Israeli government in the Knesset that's going after him. | ||
| How many people would be saying that today? | ||
| Of course, the answer is zero. | ||
| So you see how Works. | ||
| Now, I suppose there might be some lone voices out there where that's always been their top priority, a Mark Levin, a Ben Shapiro, perhaps, those types. | ||
| But do you see what I'm saying? | ||
| Do you understand the mirror image I'm trying to present you here? | ||
| There wouldn't be this fracture in MAGA. | ||
| There wouldn't be this debate about what MAGA is or America First is. | ||
| People wouldn't be complaining about the first year of the Trump administration being used to drain the swamp, stop the foreign aid, going through with Doge, saving us a trillion dollars annually, arresting all the people responsible for the waste, the fraud, and the abuse, you know, the criminals, investigating where all the money went to in Ukraine. | ||
| If all of that was happening, you know, the stuff that we actually voted for, the Epstein list, if we got the Epstein list, if we were arresting the Epstein clients, all the stuff that was part of the campaign, all the stuff that MAGA wanted, all the stuff that we voted for, if all of that was happening in the first year of the administration, how many people are coming out here today complaining that we didn't get Maduro? | ||
| How many people are coming out today complaining that we didn't do enough for Netanyahu? | ||
| We didn't do enough for Israel. | ||
| How many people? | ||
| And the answer, of course, is zero. | ||
| You might have some lone voices, but we're not counting that. | ||
| No, that's what people actually voted for. | ||
| That's what people actually wanted. | ||
| But we didn't get that. | ||
| And instead, we got more bad foreign policy, more Israel-controlled foreign policy, Israel-influenced foreign policy and the foreign policy that's of Israel's best interest. | ||
| Or I guess now people might say Venezuela's best interest. | ||
| So, hey, people go out in the streets and they wave whatever flag they want. | ||
| Everybody gets their flag-waving ceremony. | ||
| The Israel loyalists, they get their flag-waving ceremonies. | ||
| The Palestine supporters, they get their flag-waving ceremonies. | ||
| Now, the Venezuelans, the Venezuelans get their flag-waving ceremonies. | ||
| Even the Mexicans, the Mexicans waving their Mexican flags out there in a protest against America, everybody out there gets to wave their flags in some sort of a victory or some sort of a stand, but not us. | ||
| Not us. | ||
| The American people have no reason to go out and march and wave flags. | ||
| They have no declaration of victory, declaration of independence. | ||
| It's everything. | ||
| It's everybody else but America. | ||
| So if you're wondering, is it really MAGA? | ||
| Is this really what we voted for? | ||
| I think the proof is right there. | ||
| If we actually got deep state arrest, if we actually brought down the Epstein clients, if we actually made arrests from the waste, fraud, and abuse exposed by Doge, if we actually did all of these things, true America first things, nobody is causing a fuss about Venezuela. | ||
| Nobody's causing a fuss about Iran. | ||
| It's not happening. | ||
| You don't have this, you won't have this split amongst the American right, the MAGA base, the Trump base. | ||
| There wouldn't be this split. | ||
| There wouldn't be this now totally vitriolic hatred between the two sides of the aisle. | ||
| None of that would be happening. | ||
| It's only happening today because we didn't get what we voted for. | ||
| It's only happening today because we aren't getting America first policies. | ||
| Nobody would be complaining if we actually did deep state arrests, Epstein arrests, Doge arrests. | ||
| Nobody would be complaining today. | ||
| There would be no fracture amongst the right. | ||
| There would be no split of the MA base. | ||
| None of that would be happening today. | ||
| You wouldn't have a big movement of people complaining we didn't arrest Maduro, complaining we didn't stand up for Netanyahu. | ||
| None of that would be happening. | ||
| But because that is happening, that just shows you this is not MAGA. | ||
| This is not what people voted for. | ||
| This is not what people want. | ||
| So then you get to the actual situation in Venezuela. | ||
| Now, for people that support it and they say, well, I like American imperialism. | ||
| I like America dominating the Western hemisphere. | ||
| I don't mind America going in there and just declaring oil rights or taking the oil or taking out a communist dictator. | ||
| From that perspective, I at least accept where you're coming from. | ||
| I at least understand where you're coming from and you're being honest about the situation that that's what it is. | ||
| Now, I might have a different opinion on that, but at least I can sit here and say, okay, well, you're coming from a place of honesty. | ||
| You're coming from a place of realness that you're saying, yeah, well, this is obviously a regime change war. | ||
| And, you know, we're obviously in there to take the oil and the gold or whatever other interest we have there. | ||
| This is American dominance. | ||
| This is American dominance and imperialism. | ||
| And I support that. | ||
| And you say, okay, well, you're being honest about the situation. | ||
| So I'm okay with that. | ||
| But if you're going to pretend like this is anything less than that, then you're just not being honest. | ||
| You're just not an honest person. | ||
| And so there's really no debating you. | ||
| You're just lying. | ||
| You're just a liar. | ||
| And if you want to deny that this isn't being influenced by Israel or Netanyahu, you're just wrong. | ||
| You're just wrong. | ||
| And you have no idea what you're talking about. | ||
| And we've got plenty of evidence that shows that that is the case, which makes this whole thing so strange. | ||
| When Trump gets out in front of people in Jerusalem and says, here are my top donors, and they all care about Israel more than America. | ||
| And this is who runs my administration. | ||
| And Trump comes out and says that, then it's okay. | ||
| It's great when Trump says it. | ||
| But then if I come out and say that somehow I'm a conspiracy theorist, somehow I'm a hater, somehow I'm a traitor. | ||
| Well, that doesn't make sense. | ||
| I'm saying the exact same thing that Trump said. | ||
| So if you react to the exact same message from Trump and from me, if you react to that same message, depending on who's saying it, that shows that you're brainwashed. | ||
| That shows that you have a cult mindset. | ||
| So we're getting a lot of that too. | ||
| So if you support American imperialism, global dominance, regime change wars and seizing oil and land or gold or whatever, okay, at least you're being honest and I can understand where you're coming from. | ||
| My concern with that is, you know, eventually the chickens come home to roost. | ||
| Eventually that will have consequences in some way, shape, or form. | ||
| And the easiest thing to point to is the destabilization that leads to the mass migration into the West. | ||
| So that's the easiest thing you can point to right now. | ||
| For the most part, we've been able to stave off a larger conflict. | ||
| We've been able to stave off a larger war. | ||
| And, you know, I don't think Trump is going to get us into World War III with all of this stuff. | ||
| I'd like to think that Trump has enough of his senses left, enough sensibility, enough wherewithal to at least make sure that his actions aren't going to trigger another larger war with China or Russia or Iran or India or Pakistan or any of these places. | ||
| I'd like to think that. | ||
| And he has a track record that that isn't going to happen. | ||
| But I'm not naive enough to think that that's a forever situation. | ||
| I'm not naive enough to think that eventually this stuff doesn't change in a heartbeat. | ||
| And you can look at world history and know that that's exactly how it works. | ||
| So that's my big concern with supporting that policy. | ||
| But at least I understand where you're coming from. | ||
| And I say, well, okay, if it benefits America, even if I don't like it, all right, I disagree, but okay, I see where you're coming from. | ||
| Now, I would still surmise that if you make deep state arrests and you cut taxes and you fix the economy and all the stuff that we voted for, if you take care of all of that stuff first and then you start to prioritize this stuff, there's probably not as much pushback. | ||
| There's probably not as much of an issue. | ||
| But since you're getting more military-industrial complex, foreign influence, foreign policy, now it becomes a bigger issue. | ||
| Now it becomes a bigger issue. | ||
| Now, we're going to have to wait and see how all this shakes out. | ||
| Maduro was, I guess he had his first hearing in court today. | ||
| You know, he says he's not guilty of being a drug kingpin. | ||
| It's very strange, isn't it? | ||
| He has like eight different outfits now. | ||
| What outfit is he on now? | ||
| He had a very nice tan suit on today. | ||
| So what is going on with him with all the outfits? | ||
| Did they let him pack a travel bag? | ||
| Looks like he took his sweet time with a travel bag. | ||
| Did he have it ready to go? | ||
| I'm still wondering if a deal hasn't been cut between Maduro and Trump. | ||
| In fact, I'd say the odds are that there was a deal struck to bring him in, but I don't know. | ||
| Nobody said such a thing, Maduro or Trump. | ||
| So I don't know. | ||
| But he's got like 10 different outfits. | ||
| He's smiling and giving the thumbs up. | ||
| It's just this giant Hollywood theater of bringing him in and a thousand agents. | ||
| You have some shock and awe on the ground when they take him, but for the most part, it was resistance-free. | ||
| So to me, that looks like there was some deal cut here. | ||
| And, you know, not that it needs to be said, but we'll say it. | ||
| The military operation in this regard was probably perfectly flawless. | ||
| And when you look at some of the video that's come out, you can even see that they weren't going for casualties. | ||
| They didn't go in there guns ablazing. | ||
| It looks like the only time they fired anything off was in response to somebody firing at them. | ||
| So they kind of came in. | ||
| Oh, somebody just fired at us from this bunker. | ||
| They basically just annihilated you a second later. | ||
| So it looks like a deal was cut. | ||
| There's virtually no resistance. | ||
| And Maduro's smiling and giving thumbs up. | ||
| He's got a wardrobe of clothes that he can bring with him. | ||
| We haven't seen his wife. | ||
| And he's in court today in a nice fancy suit. | ||
| He says, not guilty. | ||
| But again, to pretend like this isn't a regime change war, and you say, well, it's not a war. | ||
| It's an operation. | ||
| All right. | ||
| It's not a war yet. | ||
| Okay, that's fair. | ||
| And it was a successful operation. | ||
| No one can deny that. | ||
| It wasn't a years-long invasion. | ||
| It wasn't a years-long struggle session. | ||
| But I'm sure it was pretty expensive for that military presence to be there and to run this operation. | ||
| I'm sure it was quite expensive. | ||
| And maybe somebody's done the cost-benefit analysis. | ||
| And they say, well, if we take $17 trillion in gold and oil, then that'll offset the cost of all of this. | ||
| But it's funny because I see the same people talking about 17 trillion in oil that we're getting and all this gold and stuff. | ||
| And then out of the other side of the mouth, they say this is going to benefit the Venezuelan people. | ||
| Well, if we're taking all of the resource value from Venezuela, tell me how that benefits the Venezuelan people exactly. | ||
| And by the way, it's going to be the oil companies that take it. | ||
| It's going to be BlackRock that moves in. | ||
| It's the same globalist corporate enterprise that all the anti-establishment types have been complaining about for 10 years. | ||
| And now all of a sudden they love it. | ||
| Now all of a sudden they support it. | ||
| Now, again, problems require solutions. | ||
| And solutions for such a problem like this are probably extremely limited. | ||
| But let's not kid ourselves. | ||
| Even if you want to come out and you want to say it has to be BlackRock or it has to be Vanguard or it has to be State Street. | ||
| It has to be them. | ||
| It has to be the oil companies. | ||
| Even if you want to come out and say that, let's not kid ourselves here, folks. | ||
| If you really think that this operation is somehow going to massively benefit the average person in Venezuela or the average person in the United States of America, you're not paying attention to history. | ||
| You're not paying attention to recent history. | ||
| You're not paying attention to all the recent regime change wars that we have tried and failed. | ||
| And you can say, well, it's different with Trump now. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| We'll see with this. | ||
| That's what they said about Syria, but look what happened in Syria. | ||
| Now you got a former al-Qaeda leader running Syria and he's buddy-buddy with Trump. | ||
| So how do you explain that? | ||
| So either now we let the terrorists win or he was just a Mossad operative the whole time, which is the likely situation is Jolani was just a Mossad spy the whole time. | ||
| And so now they've given Syria to the Mossad agent, the CIA agent, or they just gave Syria to Al-Qaeda. | ||
| You take your pick. | ||
| Neither one is very good. | ||
| So there's your result in Syria. | ||
| Now, I don't know if they really have the apparatus in place in Venezuela for this to go as smoothly as they did in Syria. | ||
| Because you've already got opposition forming in Colombia. | ||
| You've already got opposition forming inside of Venezuela. | ||
| There will be a congressional fight over this, but I don't think it's going to have much teeth, especially since this is what the Israeli lobby wanted and they control Congress. | ||
| So I don't think there'll be too much bite. | ||
| There won't be too much teeth in that bite, but there will be some congressional pushback from this, no doubt. | ||
| But please, if you think for one second that this is somehow going to turn around the state of being for Venezuela or turn around the state of being for the people of the United States of America, well, I guess it's be, I guess it would be fair to say, let's wait and see. | ||
| But I'm going to go ahead and tell you that's not going to happen. | ||
| No. | ||
| This is all about the rich getting richer. | ||
| This is all about the haves and the have-nots. | ||
| They're going to move in. | ||
| They're going to seize the land in the Gaza Strip, just like they've been telling you. | ||
| They're going to seize the oil. | ||
| They're going to seize the gold. | ||
| And they're going to take it for themselves. | ||
| And they're going to be more rich and powerful than they've ever been because these are Trump's friends. | ||
| These are Trump's friends. | ||
| These are Trump's donors. | ||
| This is who he works for now. | ||
|

You don't matter. | |
| Now, we might see some improvement of life. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We might. | |
| Maybe even the people of Venezuela might see some improvement of life. | ||
| But that's not what this is about. | ||
| Don't kid yourself. | ||
| This is about the same people that own everything looking for more things that they can own. | ||
| And in a larger scale, this is where you really need to understand what's happening here. | ||
| This is the real big picture that people are failing to see. | ||
| And I understand why with the day-to-day, it's like constantly changing. | ||
| You know, one week you're obsessed over Tim Walz in Minnesota. | ||
| The next week, all of a sudden, you're an expert on Venezuela and its policies. | ||
| So it's hard to stay grounded on anything. | ||
| And when you're constantly shifting the sands of the ground that people are standing on, it's harder to ever see what's going on in the larger picture. | ||
| But this has never changed. | ||
| From all the debates that we've had, let's say the last six months. | ||
| And to those that have been following this show, you know, I've been saying this consistently for months. | ||
| With every big debate, with every big split, with every big fracture, one thing remains true. | ||
| The donor class is going for total control. | ||
| And the true rich, now I'm not talking about somebody that might listen to this or lives in America making millions of dollars. | ||
| You're not rich. | ||
| You have more money than the average person, and you can live a lifestyle however you like. | ||
| But in the large scale of things, you're really not considered rich. | ||
| These people have billions of dollars of liquid cash and they have billions of dollars of assets. | ||
| And when they work together congruently, they have trillions of dollars. | ||
| So it's like if there's $100 trillion of value on planet Earth, they have 90 trillion of it. | ||
| They have 90 trillion of the value, assets, cash, whatever, resources. | ||
| And then the rest of the planet has about 10%. | ||
| So you've got about 1% of 1% with 90% of the world's value. | ||
| And then you have 99.9% of the world with 10% of the world's value. | ||
| And that's only going one direction. | ||
| So that's what this is all about. | ||
| So here's what they see: they see that the world is going into a new world order, and it's not even about politics. | ||
| Like, for example, some of the coping that you've seen from MAGA in response to the Venezuelan regime change, they say, we're fighting communism. | ||
| We're defeating communism. | ||
| We've annihilated communism. | ||
| What a joke. | ||
| Really? | ||
| We defeated communism? | ||
| Do you still pay 30% in taxes? | ||
| Yes, you do. | ||
| You do. | ||
| Do you still fund a welfare state? | ||
| You sure do. | ||
| Do you still fund the foreign aid? | ||
| Yes, you do. | ||
| Is Trump going after Xi Jinping? | ||
| Is Trump going to take over Xi Jinping and capture Xi Jinping and free the Chinese from the Communist Party? | ||
| No, he's not. | ||
| So, no, I'm sorry to say this is not about communism. | ||
| Now, it feels good, and I like seeing commies get owned. | ||
| I don't mind seeing commies get dusted. | ||
| And I'm still, I'm, I'm still there. | ||
| Okay, whatever. | ||
| Screw commies. | ||
| I'm there with you. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I'm no fan of commies. | ||
| I get pissed off when the mayor of New York City says we're replacing rugged individualism with collectivism. | ||
| Yeah, that's un-American. | ||
| That disgusts me. | ||
| So, to be perfectly clear, I am no fan of communism, but I'm not going to sit here and lie to myself. | ||
| We've defeated communism. | ||
| This is about communism. | ||
| You live in a you basically live in a communist country. | ||
| Really, you already live in a socialist country, folks, and nobody's doing anything about it. | ||
| You pay 30% in taxes. | ||
| You fund and subsidize basically the entire planet. | ||
| You fund a welfare state, you are a communist. | ||
| So, no, this is not about communism and communism was not defeated, not even close. | ||
| They're not even trying. | ||
| But go ahead. | ||
| Tell me how Trump is taking on communism. | ||
| Tell me how Trump is invading China. | ||
| Tell me how Trump is going to capture Xi Jinping. | ||
| Tell me how Trump has ended the welfare state. | ||
| Tell me how Trump has ended foreign aid. | ||
| Oh, he hasn't. | ||
| So stop it with, oh, we are beating communists. | ||
| Just stop it, please. | ||
| I'd love to see us defeat communism, but we're not. | ||
| No, this is about oil. | ||
| This is about resources. | ||
| This is about globalism. | ||
| That's what this is. | ||
| This is about making sure. | ||
| It's like if you've ever seen the movie, The Kingsman, and Valentine has his list of all the leaders he has to take care of to get everybody on the same page. | ||
| That's what this is. | ||
| Maduro wasn't on the same page. | ||
| He wasn't on the same page as the Zionists. | ||
| And so they don't want him. | ||
| Maduro, not on the same page as the big corporate government. | ||
| So they don't want him. | ||
| And that's what it is. | ||
| It's the corporate government. | ||
| It's the corporate world government. | ||
| And it's the Zionist world government. | ||
| And Maduro's against them. | ||
| So he had to be taken out. | ||
| It's not about communism. | ||
| So let me get back to my point because I got off the track here. | ||
| This is all about the fact that we are going into a new world very fast. | ||
| And really, we're not sure what it means for civilization. | ||
| We're not sure what AI dominance is going to mean for civilization. | ||
| We're not sure what robotics and automation and quantum computing, combining it all with the AI, combining it all with a central bank digital currency. | ||
| This is where it's all going. | ||
| And we really don't know what that means for civilization. | ||
| We really don't know. | ||
| Some people might have some good ideas, some bad ideas, but that's where it's all going. | ||
| Now, Trump has obviously realized this. | ||
| The Trump family has obviously realized this. | ||
| That's why they're getting on the ground level in a lot of these enterprises. | ||
| And that's why they're going to make so much money as all of this is going down. | ||
| It's unreal. | ||
| So that's what this is all about. | ||
| This is all about the fact that once they want to know for sure that once we're all the way in to the quantum computing automated AI world, that they have all of their pieces on the board and they have all of their cornerstones and foundations in place where they need to be so that when we get there, they have full control, full power, | ||
| and they benefit from every single transaction you make. | ||
| And quite frankly, it is the complete opposite of what it means to be independent as an American. | ||
| And I will say this, though. | ||
| I'll be curious to see. | ||
| I mean, it looks like Trump is going for global dominance. | ||
| Now, you could say, okay, are we in the business of empire building? | ||
| Some people might like that. | ||
| Some people might not like that. | ||
| I would say I don't like that. | ||
| But I'm not going to sit here and let's say we expand the American empire to Cuba, Venezuela, Greenland, Gaza, wherever. | ||
| And now all of a sudden, this is America's empire all across the globe. | ||
| And if that does benefit my country, if that does Raise our quality of living and brings in more money than ever and benefits us, then, you know, I'm going to have a hard time complaining about that. | ||
| But I haven't seen that. | ||
| That's not the case. | ||
| That's not what's happened. | ||
| So if that happens, okay, we'll see if that's what happens. | ||
| But it looks like Trump might be going for that. | ||
| It looks like Trump might be going for global domination, building an American empire. | ||
| But then you have to ask: is this for the purpose of benefiting America or is this for the purpose of benefiting Trump's donor class? | ||
| Is this for the purpose of benefiting that other country that Trump seems to be more loyal to now? | ||
| And that's a fair question to ask. | ||
| That's a fair concern to have. | ||
| So if Trump's going to go for global domination, if Trump is going to expand the American empire, and let's call it Manifest Destiny 2026, if he's going to do that, then you are fair to ask the question: is he doing that for the American people or is he doing that for the donor class? | ||
| Is he doing that for the foreign interests and the special interests that have bought this administration and the policies thereof? | ||
| Totally fair question. | ||
| And given all the circumstantial evidence, I would say that it's more likely that Trump is doing this to benefit his donors than he is to benefit the state of our country. | ||
| But if that's the agenda here, time will tell. | ||
| But it does appear to be the case. | ||
| He's talking about Greenland. | ||
| He's talking about we need more regime change. | ||
| So this is all happening. | ||
| Now, I want to get to the news. | ||
| We do have some news. | ||
| We're going to cover some news. | ||
| We are probably going to take phone calls. | ||
| And, you know, we did a really good job. | ||
| We did a special broadcast late Friday night when the regime change was happening in Venezuela. | ||
| And we did a late broadcast on that. | ||
| And the super chats were great that night. | ||
| So we may start to lean in. | ||
| We may start to lean into super chats more, but just know we don't read those till the end of the show. | ||
| So if you've sent a super chat on YouTube, we will get to that. | ||
| If you do a rumble rant, the problem is they don't save them in my system. | ||
| So if you make a rumble rant, I just can't see it unless I just happen to see it on the screen. | ||
| But the super chats on YouTube, they do hold in my system. | ||
| So I can't go back and look at those. | ||
| So just FYI, if you're trying to get a super chat in, you go on YouTube, you send a super chat. | ||
| We will read the super chat before the end of the show. | ||
| But if you send a rumble rant, I cannot guarantee that that's going to get read. | ||
| If I see it, I will read it. | ||
| If not, there's nothing I can really do. | ||
| But we had really good super chats last weekend. | ||
| So we may go back into that. | ||
| But let's do this, take care of some business here before we get into our news portion today. | ||
| And you're hearing all of this, folks. | ||
| You're hearing all of this right now. | ||
| And maybe you're feeling a little more inclined to do some emergency preparedness. | ||
| Just maybe. | ||
| Now, I'd like to think that we're not going to see some collapse that's going to force you to eat emergency food and have full preparedness necessity here. | ||
| But if you are thinking that, mypatriotsupply.com/slash Owen is the place to go. | ||
| Now, they have a winter bundle special right now, which is for you to consider dealing with extreme cold and power outages and some of these blizzards. | ||
| We've seen that happen here in Texas. | ||
| It was a really bad one in 2020, where basically the city of Austin was shut down for weeks because of a bad ice storm. | ||
| We don't know how to handle cold here in Texas. | ||
| And it was just totally shut down. | ||
| A lot of people died. | ||
| And a lot of people died in their houses because they had no way to heat themselves and they had nothing to eat. | ||
| That was a real thing. | ||
| We had people going through dumpsters for food because a lot of the major grocery stores here had to throw out the produce and some of the food that went bad with no electricity. | ||
| People went and did dumpster diving just to get food. | ||
| That's what it was like here in Austin just a few years ago. | ||
| We don't want you to go through that. | ||
| So go to my friends at mypatriotsupply.com slash Owen. | ||
| You know, this is so cool. | ||
| Hey, you know about emergency food by now. | ||
| You know about preparedness food by now. | ||
| And hopefully you have some. | ||
| Hopefully you do have that box checked off your list that you do have some emergency food insurance you can eat. | ||
| That's a no-brainer. | ||
| I'd say that's a must-have. | ||
| But you might not be thinking about heat. | ||
| And again, if you're in Texas, most houses here, they don't have fireplaces, folks. | ||
| They don't put fireplaces in houses here. | ||
| So what are you going to do for heat? | ||
| Well, at mypatriotsupply.com slash Owen, this is an incredible product that they have. | ||
| It is called the Vezda Off-Grid Space Heater. | ||
| It's a space heater that does not use electricity or propane. | ||
| It runs on something called canned heat, which is an indoor safe fuel. | ||
| With a Vezda stashed in your closet, you know you can keep warm no matter what. | ||
| It even doubles as a stove to cook your food. | ||
| Another thing, you just don't think of these things until you get into that position, right? | ||
| Until you're actually in that position, which unfortunately I was in for a couple of weeks here in Austin, you think about, do I have clean water? | ||
| Do I have water I can cook with? | ||
| Do I have anything I can even cook with? | ||
| Do I have a fire I can cook with? | ||
| Do I have a space heater I can use indoors? | ||
| They have all of these answers for you. | ||
| They have all of these solutions for you at mypatriotsupply.com slash Owen. | ||
| Now, right now, you can get the Vezda space heater and a bunch more preparedness gear as free gifts when you order the winter survival kit for my Patriot Supply. | ||
| Go to mypatriotsupply.com slash Owen. | ||
| You can see everything that's included. | ||
| This offer will expire this month. | ||
| It will expire this month. | ||
| You can see it on the screen right there. | ||
| It will expire this month, but it is still live right now. | ||
| MypatriotSupply.com slash Owen. | ||
| All right, a couple news stories. | ||
| Maybe we'll just do some odds and ends before we get back into the geopolitics. | ||
| So I get sent this. | ||
| I get sent this before the show. | ||
| United States increasingly issuing work visas to OnlyFans models, OnlyFans models. | ||
| These are adult porn actresses, OnlyFans models. | ||
| For people that are wondering what that means, it's an adult porn girl. | ||
| That's what it is. | ||
| Now, I don't even understand how this makes sense. | ||
| United States increasingly issuing work visas to OnlyFan models based on level of audience reach, according to Financial Times. | ||
| Why would an OnlyFans model, Which is a very kind word, isn't it? | ||
| Why would an OnlyFans model need a visa? | ||
| Their work is online. | ||
| They don't need to come here. | ||
| We don't need them here. | ||
| You want to know how sick this is? | ||
| You want to know how sick this is? | ||
| Maybe it's because maybe the owners of OnlyFans are friends with Donald Trump. | ||
| Maybe because the owners of OnlyFans are huge political donors, by the way. | ||
| Yeah, look into that if you want. | ||
| Why is this getting priority? | ||
| You want to know how sick this is, folks? | ||
| As I was briefly looking into this earlier today, and I say briefly because I started to do it and I was so disgusted that I said, I'm out. | ||
| I'm done. | ||
| So I'm looking at this today. | ||
| I'm saying, well, wait a second. | ||
| What is this all about? | ||
| And I find this story that was already on my radar because when you follow news and culture and current events, you know, you see everything. | ||
| Well, there's, you know, some of these OnlyFans models. | ||
| What should we call them? | ||
| I mean, you don't want to be rude, but I mean, let's call it what it is. | ||
| I mean, these are whores. | ||
| You know, these are, these are basically prostitutes. | ||
| And hey, whatever, you choose that line of work. | ||
| I'm not the one saying it should be illegal. | ||
| Maybe it might be, it might be time to make this stuff illegal, but I'm not on that bandwagon yet. | ||
| But it's becoming increasingly, I think, a major issue that we might need to talk about the legality of all of this. | ||
| But so I'm looking into this today, and I find out, and it's this, and it's like, okay, we just hit the new year. | ||
| So there's these stories about how much these people are making, how much these young girls are making. | ||
| And there's this girl, she's like 20 years old, and she has this house where they all live. | ||
| And I guess the difference is it's no longer like the pimp running the whorehouse. | ||
| Now it's the whores running the whorehouse. | ||
| So they keep all of their money and they do great. | ||
| And so they're talking about these women that are making tens of millions of dollars as online hookers. | ||
| And now they're bringing in girls when they're 18 years old. | ||
| 18 years old. | ||
| And apparently this girl turns 18 and makes $3 million immediately afterwards. | ||
| And I'm sitting here and it's like, okay, we hear about the nature of this industry and how they groom young women. | ||
| And now it's the same, it's the same story. | ||
| It's just the girls that are doing it. | ||
| And, you know, you see all these people that attack Andrew Tate all day long. | ||
| And Andrew Tate doesn't need me to defend him. | ||
| He can defend himself. | ||
| But it's like, oh, we're going to go after Andrew Tate and say he's so bad and he's a misogynist and all this other stuff. | ||
| I'm looking at this stuff. | ||
| I'm like, where are you people attacking these American women that are luring in girls when they're 17 years old, building them up a hooker, an online prostitute infrastructure so that the day they turn 18, they can bring them into the whorehouse and make $3 million immediately after turning 18. | ||
| Where's the outrage? | ||
| Where is the outrage? | ||
| Again, I don't need to defend Andrew Tate, but I just defend reality. | ||
| I just look for logical consistency. | ||
| I couldn't believe when I saw this story. | ||
| And I'm saying, where are all of these people that have been ranting and raving about Andrew Tate for the last two, three years? | ||
| And I don't know if he was recruiting American women. | ||
| I never heard anything about that. | ||
| But where is it? | ||
| These are American women in their 20s. | ||
| These are like E-Lane Maxwell's. | ||
| And they're recruiting teenage girls. | ||
| And they're building them a profile so that the day when they turn 18, they can turn it on and they make millions and millions of dollars. | ||
| So I stumbled upon that when I was looking into the now, now literal online hookers are getting special treatment from the Trump administration. | ||
| You can't even make that up. | ||
| Online hookers, prostitutes, because we don't have enough of those in the country. | ||
| It's like you could argue we need more farmers, or you could argue we need more doctors, or you could argue we need more factory workers or whatever. | ||
| And these arguments have been made. | ||
| It's like, okay, who's making the argument that we need more whores? | ||
| I don't know, maybe Trump. | ||
| Maybe somebody who's worked at Trump's modeling agencies before. | ||
| We need more whores. | ||
| I was disgusted when I saw this. | ||
| I was disgusted. | ||
| So not only, I guess, the administration is prioritizing bringing in more whores because we have such a shortage of whores in this country. | ||
| I can't believe we're going to sit here as a society and let this take over to such a degree here. | ||
| And there's virtually no outrage when these girls are making millions of dollars before they even turn 20 and they're getting groomed and they're getting brought in and prepared to be a whore, to be an online prostitute the day that they turn 18. | ||
| This is so disgusting. | ||
| This is so despicable. | ||
| Honestly, it needs a criminal investigation, quite frankly. | ||
| How can that even be legal? | ||
| How can it be legal for one of these multi-millionaire online prostitutes to recruit a girl that's 16 or 17 years old and say, I need you to start posting scantily clad images on your social media. | ||
| It can't be nude yet. | ||
| Wait till you're 18. | ||
| Folks, I'm not encouraging you to go look at this stuff, okay? | ||
| Like I said, I was disgusted, but this is what they do. | ||
| These multi-millionaire online whores recruit 16 and 17-year-old girls, and they start building them a social media infrastructure so that when they turn 18, they can become a full-blown online whore. | ||
| And they say, when you're 16 and 17, you have to start posting pictures of yourself half naked, anything but nudity, bikini, shaking your ass, bending over, you know, licking on a lollipop, a banana, whatever. | ||
| As long as you just keep it clothed, we can build you this profile. | ||
| We can build you some subscribers and some followers. | ||
| And then the day you turn 18, we turn you into a full online whore and you can make millions of dollars. | ||
| How is that legal? | ||
| And where is the outrage from the American people that this is going on to our young women? | ||
| And then you see that Trump is prioritizing this and saying, hey, that's great. | ||
| Bring them in more. | ||
| need more visas for this? | ||
| That is crazy. | ||
| Why are we doing this to our young women? | ||
| And by the way, you know what? | ||
| Look, prostitution is the oldest trick in the book. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Let's not kid ourselves. | ||
| Prostitution is the oldest occupation in the world. | ||
| It's not going anywhere. | ||
| Maybe you can make it illegal, but it's not going anywhere. | ||
| Now they just made it legal as long as you're filming it so that the people that run the porn industry can make billions of dollars. | ||
| They get the government approved pimps, but, you know, the actual people out there on the streets, they're not allowed to do it. | ||
| How can we sit here and watch this happen to our young girls? | ||
| And you want to know what it's a sign of? | ||
| It's a sign of a decaying civilization, and it's the sign of a bad economy. | ||
| That young girls feel so hopeless with the future. | ||
| They don't think there's a husband out there waiting for them. | ||
| They don't think there's a legitimate living out there waiting for them. | ||
| They have no hope. | ||
| I don't know where the fathers are in this equation. | ||
| I suppose that's a mystery if they're there. | ||
| This is the sign of a decaying civilization, folks. | ||
| This is the sign of a declining empire and an economy that's so bad that women would rather become prostitutes the second, the literal second on the clock that clicks and they become 18. | ||
| They literally hop into this. | ||
| So that's just a really sad sign of where things are at right now for our country. | ||

You're listening to The Owen Report on the Wynn Network. | |
| You found | ||
| your political compass, THE OWEN Report. | ||
| By the way, I forgot to say, since it is 3 o'clock Central now, the normal show time, the normal start time for the show, we moved the show up an hour today. | ||
| I've got some family things going on today. | ||
| And instead of just canceling the show, I decided to just move it up an hour. | ||
| So we'll be signing off at 5 today, but that's why we shifted it from 2 to 5, normally 3 to 6 p.m. Central. | ||
| So that's just for today, FYI programming note. | ||
| Forgot to mention that earlier. | ||
| I want to start just picking it up and putting it down now as we enter the second hour. | ||
| This is a pretty big story for Maha. | ||
| I say a pretty big story for Maha happening here. | ||
| And it's gotten a lot of pushback, even from some of the Trump loyalists in Congress, which I would say Marjorie Taylor Greene is obviously not one of them. | ||
| The children's health defense reporting, Congress is about to wipe out your right to sue pesticide companies quietly tucked into a new spending bill. | ||
| Section 453 blocks updated health warnings and gives chemical manufacturers immunity even when people are harmed. | ||
| Cancer Parkinson's infertility, 57,000 plus products, zero accountability. | ||
| This must be pulled now before it reaches the floor. | ||
| So let's see where the pushback comes. | ||
| I've seen Marjorie Taylor Greene. | ||
| I've seen Anna Paulinga Luna. | ||
| I've seen Thomas Massey. | ||
| But this is just like what they do with vaccines. | ||
| And again, it's the donors. | ||
| So this is the donors that own Congress. | ||
| And they're paying. | ||
| They're paying their congressional slaves. | ||
| They're paying their congressional property to slip this into the bill so that they can be protected when their products cause cancer or death or anything else, just like we see with vaccines. | ||
| So how's that? | ||
| How's that for Make America Healthy Again? | ||
| Not so great. | ||
| We'll be monitoring the situation. | ||
| Into the geopolitical. | ||
| Colombia president rages. | ||
| Come get me. | ||
| I'm waiting in huge taunt to Trump. | ||
| Well, you'd think he'd be smarter than that after what we just saw in Venezuela and Maduro's similar taunting. | ||
| Colombian president Gustavo Petro issued a stark warning to Donald Trump after the capture of Nicolas Maduro sent shockwaves around the world. | ||
| He's ramped up attacks against Trump saying, come get me. | ||
| I'm waiting for you here. | ||
| Don't threaten me. | ||
| I'll wait for you right here if you want to. | ||
| He continued, I don't accept invasions, missiles, or assassinations, only intel. | ||
| Come speak here with intelligence and we'll receive you and talk face to face with facts, not lies. | ||
| Stop getting lied to by Colombian political mafias who condemned us to 700,000 deaths and made us the world's most unequal country. | ||
| It looks like Trump is just going for global hegemony at this point. | ||
| On behalf of who, you can decide for yourself. | ||
| But this is my concern. | ||
| So it's like, hey, look, if you support American imperialism and dominance and taking the oil, taking the gold and conquering land and administrations around the world wherever you want, whenever you want, then fine. | ||
| And that's certainly what this is. | ||
| Let's not mince words here. | ||
| That's what this is. | ||
| And if you support that, okay. | ||
| My concern is eventually the chickens come home to roost. | ||
| You can't get away with this forever. | ||
| And that's my concern. | ||
| That's my concern that eventually it's not going to be so smooth. | ||
| Colombian president says he's ready to take up arms in face of Trump's threats. | ||
| Well, if Venezuela wasn't really able to take up any arms or a single arm, I'm not really sure what Colombia can do. | ||
| The peace president, the peace president, the UN Security Council is having emergency sessions on this today in New York, where Maduro had trial and is in prison right now. | ||
| That's wild. | ||
| Marco Rubio issues huge warning to Cuba after Maduro capture. | ||
| They're in a lot of trouble. | ||
| So we're going after Cuba next. | ||
| I'd say that's probably inevitable. | ||
| We're going after Cuba. | ||
| I mean, I don't know. | ||
| If we turned Cuba into a state, if we turned Puerto Rico into a state, whatever, Venezuela into a state, it's like, all right, manifest destiny, American dominance. | ||
| But I think the major hiccup here for me is we can't even get our own affairs in order. | ||
| You could argue the American economy is worse than it's ever been. | ||
| And they'll say, but the stock market hit record highs today, which is true. | ||
| Tell me how many poor people own stock. | ||
| And by the way, it's reached a point now where, I mean, if you're smart enough and you have the time of day, you can get into the stock market and make a little, you can make a little, you can make a little cash, but you're not making any life-changing money. | ||
| Nobody in the middle class is making life-changing money in the stock market. | ||
| You have to have millions of dollars to be able to invest in the stock market in order to make any real money. | ||
| The best returns that you get are 50%. | ||
| So unless you're investing millions of dollars, you're not really making a bunch of money. | ||
| So you could say, well, I invested $50,000 in the stock market last year and I got a $25,000 return. | ||
| You did pretty good. | ||
| You'll be okay with that. | ||
| But that's not what we're talking about here. | ||
| We're talking about the richest people in the world. | ||
| They're the ones making all the money on Wall Street right now. | ||
| And it's all insider trading with the pumps and the dumps. | ||
| So it's like, hey, okay, we're Manifest Destiny. | ||
| We're expanding the empire. | ||
| Folks, half of the country lives paycheck to paycheck. | ||
| Half of the country puts their groceries on a credit card. | ||
| The economy is so bad now. | ||
| You go online to order a pizza delivered and you have to make it on a for-payment installation plan for a pizza delivery. | ||
| So it's like we really don't even have our own affairs in order to be going out and conquering the world. | ||
| But again, it's not for us. | ||
| It's not for you. | ||
| It's for the rich. | ||
| It's for the 0.1% of the 1% that own everything. | ||
| And they want more. | ||
| And they see stuff in Venezuela that they don't own and have access to. | ||
| So they want it. | ||
| And they see things in Cuba that they don't own and they don't have access to. | ||
| So they want it. | ||
| And they see things in the Gaza Strip that they don't own and they want to. | ||
| So they go for it. | ||
| That's what it is. | ||
| Trump sets his sights on Greenland. | ||
| He was talking about Greenland again. | ||
| He's been talking about that for a while. | ||
| President says U.S. needs Danish territory for defense from China and Russia. | ||
| Well, why do we need defense from China and Russia? | ||
| I thought we were in the peace president. | ||
| I thought it was peacetime. | ||
| Well, maybe they're not so happy about what just happened in Venezuela. | ||
| So we're going after Greenland. | ||
|

|
Okay. | |
| You know, it's funny how Mexico isn't a bigger topic here. | ||
| U.S. spy jet circles Mexico coast as Trump threatens Venezuela-style military attack. | ||
| I don't really understand what this is about. | ||
| Now, if we're going to go after anybody for narco-terrorism, it should be Mexico. | ||
| That's where all the drugs come from. | ||
| That's where all the big cartels are. | ||
| That's a fact. | ||
| But since Scheinbaum is friendly with the foreign lobby, you know, Mexico's off limits. | ||
| Well, maybe not. | ||
| A U.S. Navy plane has been spotted circling near a part of Mexico's coast after President Donald Trump threatened military action against the country. | ||
| The P-8 Poiseiden was detected on flight tracking websites conducting surveillance and reconnaissance missions off Tijuana, just south of California. | ||
| I have a hard time believing Trump is doing anything with Mexico. | ||
| It seems like Mexico is off limits. | ||
| His donors tell him that Mexico is off limits, and Scheinbaum is in good with Netanyahu. | ||
| So I don't really see this as any serious threat. | ||
| But yeah, if you want to stop the cartels, if you want to stop the drugs, then Mexico would be the country you go after, not Venezuela. | ||
| But they kind of dropped that. | ||
| They kind of dropped the whole it was about drugs thing. | ||
| And now they just admit it's about oil and regime change. | ||
| So we knew that the whole time, but yeah, they lied out. | ||
| They lied out the gates. | ||
| And then the people that called them out for it got attacked. | ||
| And then, of course, we were right. | ||
| Venezuela's new leader, Del Codriguez, is a hardline socialist who kept Maduro in power for years, and she's already making threats against Trump. | ||
| So this is not good. | ||
| This is not good for anybody involved. | ||
| I do wonder what the plan with Maduro is. | ||
| I mean, that is a crazy situation to have him imprisoned right now in New York. | ||
| And there's just nothing they can do about it. | ||
| And it doesn't seem like there's any intention with him and Trump meeting. | ||
| So what is the story here? | ||
| What is the story? | ||
| Oh, get ready for a lot of this. | ||
| Venezuelan acting president blames Zionists for Maduro's capture. | ||
| Del C Rodriguez, the vice president of Venezuela, who is now serving as acting president, accused Israel of orchestrating the United States operation that led to the capture of former leader Nicolas Maduro. | ||
| Speaking in a televised address alongside senior figures from Maduro's inner circle, Rodriguez blamed the Zionists for the events surrounding his arrest, echoing familiar rhetoric long used by Venezuela's Chavista leadership to fault Israel and its allies for international pressure on the regime. | ||
| The attack on Venezuela has undoubtedly Zionist character, Rodriguez declared. | ||
| Maduro is the only president of Venezuela, despite his transfer to U.S. custody and a ruling by Venezuela's constitutional court apporting her the interim president during his absence. | ||
| Well, there is evidence to this, and we'll get to some of that coming up. | ||
| But it's really just the larger point of emphasis that the Israeli lobby runs this administration. | ||
| Iran protests enter ninth day as Trump renews intervention threat. | ||
| It'll be curious to see what happens in Iran as Israel is attempting to overthrow that current regime. | ||
| It seems like Trump is kind of backing off of that for now and letting Israel handle it. | ||
| We'll see if that lasts. | ||
| A wave of protest sparked by Iran's failing economy, like our failing economy, has continued for a ninth day, even as President Trump renewed his threat of U.S. intervention. | ||
| So Mossad is in there leading a color revolution. | ||
| They probably want the regime to start firing at protesters so that way the United States can get involved because that's what we need so, so badly. | ||
| We're just trying so hard for that. | ||
| And I'm going to eventually, we're going to get to some of these clips here to give some extra context to these headlines. | ||
| Israeli military ordered to prepare for war on all fronts amid Iranian protests, prepare for war on all fronts. | ||
| They're already at war. | ||
| Trump and Israel have struck seven different countries so far this year. | ||
| And we're not even a weekend, just FYI. | ||
| A new long-term plan reportedly envisions a dramatic expansion of all IDF military activity, including weapons in outer space, not Jewish space lasers. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| The IDF has been ordered to prepare for a possible simultaneous war on Iran, Lebanon, and the West Bank. | ||
| One scenario reportedly includes an explosive operation against Tehran, which is currently facing widespread Israeli-backed cost of living protests. | ||
| They're going for broke, folks. | ||
| The Israeli Trump coalition is going for global domination. | ||
| And as long as Israel benefits and as long as Trump, his family, and his friends benefits, then they're just going to go ahead and do it. | ||
| They really don't care what you say or what you think or if it benefits the country. | ||
| In case you haven't noticed yet. | ||
| Just in case you were still unsure. | ||
| Tim Walz. | ||
| He's out. | ||
| Tim Walz, Democrats, 2024 vice president pick drops bid for third term as Minnesota's governor, Amy Klobuchar considers running. | ||
| And Walls in his statement today, this guy's such a clown. | ||
| So he's going to not run again. | ||
| And it's obviously because of this fraud story. | ||
| But then he declares in his quit speech that they're going to capture every single fraudster. | ||
| Now, this whole thing is ironic because there have been no new arrests. | ||
| There's been a couple detainees that got released. | ||
| There's been a lot of show. | ||
| There's been a lot of hype. | ||
| But there's been no new arrests. | ||
| There really aren't any new cases. | ||
| So basically, when this whole thing dropped two weeks ago and you had all the hype with all the fraud being exposed, there has been no real action. | ||
| There's been no real criminal investigation or charges, none. | ||
| And you might be saying, well, wait a second, Owen. | ||
| I saw Harmeet Dylan and I saw the Department of Homeland Security and the Justice Department and I saw everybody coming out and they said they made these arrests. | ||
| Folks, those are arrests from years ago. | ||
| Those aren't anything to do with this new thing, which isn't even new. | ||
| All of this stuff broke years ago. | ||
| There is nothing new to the Minnesota fraud story, except there's new videos, new reports, and new hype. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| And now I guess Walls is dropping out. | ||
| Just two weeks ago, everybody was demanding arrests. | ||
| Just two weeks ago, everybody was demanding arrests, deportations, and none of that has happened. | ||
| And where are the demands? | ||
| They're all gone. | ||
| Nobody's demanding anything anymore. | ||
| What's up with that? | ||
| I guess we really didn't care. | ||
| More radical left violence. | ||
| Again, where Pam Bonnie was supposed to shut all this down. | ||
| What happened to the investigations into Act Blue and the money laundering? | ||
| What happened to the Antifa as a terrorist organization? | ||
| What happened to going in and finding out all the fundraisers and all the organizers of the left-wing terrorism in this country? | ||
| I thought we were shutting it down. | ||
| None of that happened. | ||
| And now one of them shows up at JD Vance's Cincinnati home, vandalizing it. | ||
| Tried to break in. | ||
| And there will be more because nothing is done. | ||
| Nothing is ever done. | ||
| And the MAGA sloppers don't really care as long as they get to ride the hype train and feel important. | ||
| Federal appeals court says California open carry ban is unconstitutional. | ||
| Oh, you don't say. | ||
| A Ninth Circuit panel said the ban ran afoul of a 2022 Supreme Court ruling that required courts to evaluate gun laws based on the country's historical tradition of firearm regulation. | ||
| Oh, really? | ||
| Open carry ban is unconstitutional? | ||
| You don't say. | ||
| You don't say. | ||
| So that's nice. | ||
| 60 Minutes spikes a second story to protect the Trump administration. | ||
| They've spiked an Epstein story, and now they have spiked an illegal immigration story. | ||
| Barry Weiss, at the behest of the Trump administration, has spiked two stories on 60 Minutes. | ||
| So there you go. | ||
| Now you understand why Barry Weiss was put in. | ||
| Now you understand why Larry Ellison and Donald Trump are scratching each other's backs. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And now there's Marco Rubio. | ||
| You know, Rubio goes from a vehement anti-Trumper, deep state neocon bubble boy to now some sort of a MAGA figurehead. | ||
| And I'll give Rubio some credit as the Secretary of State. | ||
| I think he's overall done a good job. | ||
| And then the regime change operation in Venezuela goes down. | ||
| And Rubio, for whatever reason, gets you a bunch of credit for it. | ||
| He sees his poll numbers go up and he thinks now is the time for me to go on network news and do interviews. | ||
| I'm going to seize this moment and I'm going to continue to help my poll numbers go up and I'm going to make my case now for a presidential campaign in 2028. | ||
| Now, normally, if the Republican Party was healthy right now, what Marco Rubio did this weekend would actually destroy his chances of being president. | ||
| But somehow it actually increased. | ||
| Now, I remain steadfast in my belief that nobody from this administration will be able to win an election. | ||
| Nobody. | ||
| And the only way you can turn that around is if you have hundreds of deep state arrests and in all the foreign aid and in all the foreign wars and everything else. | ||
| But with every passing day, it looks like that's not going to happen. | ||
| So, no, nobody from this administration will be electable as long as that is the case. | ||
| But Rubio thinks I'm going to seize the moment. | ||
| Now, George Stephanopoulos has been a big fat nothing for a long time. | ||
| And you can't even think of a moment where George Stephanopoulos ever had a gotcha moment, right? | ||
| He's never had that moment. | ||
| He was a Clinton operative placed into the media who basically just survived in ABC network news after the Clinton administration. | ||
| That's basically George Stephanopoulos, a Clinton operator in the media who then just stuck around with ABC News for all of these years in the aftermath. | ||
| But he's not the guy. | ||
| He's not the getcha guy. | ||
| He's not the gotcha guy. | ||
| He's not the viral clip guy. | ||
| He never does that. | ||
| Nobody's scared of George Stephanopoulos. | ||
| Well, he got his first one on Marco Rubio. | ||
| This is so embarrassing for Marco Rubio. | ||
| I can't even. | ||
| So a little background. | ||
| The president of Honduras was arrested for what they were originally claiming, what they were originally claiming Maduro did as a drug kingpin. | ||
| And there was ample evidence that the president of Honduras was running all of these drug operations. | ||
| They brought him in, they arrested him, and then he got a pardon. | ||
| So for all the things that they claimed Maduro did, this president actually did, and then Trump pardoned him. | ||
| Now, this is the type of stuff that actually falls right under the purview of the Secretary of State, aka Marco Rubio. | ||
| Rubio has now embarrassed himself. | ||
| Any competence that you thought Marco Rubio had or any involvement in these matters that you thought Marco Rubio had, now you have to question everything. | ||
| When he claims ignorance during this interview with Stephanopoulos, he gives Stephanopoulos the first gotcha moment of his 40-year career, and he completely embarrasses himself as either an incompetent or an ignoramus. | ||
| Unbelievable stuff here from Rubio. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Congressional Gang evade has a history of not leaking. | |
| But you mentioned the indictment of Mr. Maduro, and of course it does detail his drug running operations. | ||
| In the same jurisdiction, the former president of Honduras was actually convicted on similar charges, yet the president pardoned him. | ||
| Here's what the vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Mark Warner, had to say about that. | ||
| He said, you cannot credibly argue that drug trafficking charges demand invading in one case while issuing a pardon in another. | ||
| What's your response? | ||
| Well, the president has the pardon authority. | ||
| He's the one that reviewed the file with the folks at the White House to make these pardon decisions. | ||
| And I refer questions to them on it because I did not involve in the pardon process. | ||
| So I can't comment. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I'm going to rewind this, but let's listen to this again. | ||
| So Rubio obviously can't answer the question because Stephanopoulos just caught him. | ||
| If logic can't be applied universally, it's not logic. | ||
| It's propaganda. | ||
| If policy can't be applied universally, it's not policy. | ||
| It's propaganda. | ||
| It's corruption. | ||
| It's persecution, however you want to say it. | ||
| So for Marco Rubio to come out here and obviously not want to address the obvious logical inconsistencies here, the practical application inconsistencies here, and then to claim like he has no idea what's going on as the Secretary of State. | ||
| This is so pathetic. | ||
| Now, folks, you have to understand, these moments are only going to get more and more obvious, and they're going to happen more and more as this administration continues to show its blatant hypocrisy on all of these issues. | ||
| Stephanopoulos came ready. | ||
| Marco Rubio thought this would be a cakewalk and then he embarrassed himself. | ||
| So listen to this again. | ||
| This is the Secretary of State claiming he had no idea whatsoever about Trump pardoning a president of Honduras for drug running, which proves that the whole thing against Maduro is persecution. | ||
| So again, listen, it has the pardon authority. | ||
| He's the one that reviewed the file with the folks at the White House to make these pardon decisions. | ||
| And I refer questions to them on it because I'm not involved in the pardon process. | ||
| So I can't comment on that because I wasn't involved in that process. | ||
| But the president outlined yesterday that he felt that in that particular case, there was unfairness and that there was unfairness in the way that that individual was treated. | ||
| And he also pointed to the fact that the party that's now won the elections in Honduras had asked for this. | ||
| And so I would point to those comments as the rationale for it. | ||
| In the case of Maduro, this should be right in your wheelhouse. | ||
| You're the Secretary of State. | ||
| So are you admitting that the president thinks so little of you? | ||
| Are you admitting that the president doesn't view anything that you have to say or think valuable that he makes these decisions without weighing your opinion? | ||
| You have no opinion on the matter. | ||
| So in other words, nobody likes you in this administration. | ||
| In other words, nobody trusts you. | ||
| Trump doesn't want to hear your opinion on such a matter that normally the Secretary of State would at least offer an opinion on. | ||
| Look, it's very simple. | ||
| This guy was indicted. | ||
| No one ever did anything about it. | ||
| And he didn't think he was under threat or that the indictment was ever going to be enforced. | ||
| It was enforced yesterday. | ||

Hernandez was convicted by a jury. | |
| I understand. | ||
| You're asking me. | ||
| The pardon authority is something that, you know, I'm not involved in in my role. | ||
| I'm not criticizing it. | ||
| I can't just comment on it because I just wasn't involved in those deliberations. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Do you support it? | |
| I wasn't involved in those deliberations. | ||
| I haven't looked at the case. | ||
| So that's his claim now. | ||
| He wasn't involved. | ||
| So what are you doing? | ||
| How are you not involved? | ||
| This is a matter of Secretary of State. | ||
| This is a matter of state issues. | ||
| And you're not involved. | ||
| So the president thinks so little of you. | ||
| The administration at large thinks so little of you. | ||
| The White House thinks so little of you that you're not even involved in these deliberations as the Secretary of State. | ||
| But I'm supposed to now think you're presidential material. | ||
| I'm supposed to think that Marco Rubio is the next candidate for president of the United States. | ||
| When Trump and this administration think so little of him that they don't even involve him in this case of international significance here? | ||
| And that's his fallback is nobody cares enough about me to ask what I think. | ||
| That's his fallback here is this administration, this president thinks so little of me that I wasn't even involved at all. | ||
| That's your fallback. | ||
| And this is presidential material? | ||
| You just got gotcha by Stephanopoulos. | ||
| First time in his 50-year career, and it's Marco Rubio. | ||
| I haven't looked at the arguments made by, you know, I've got a bunch of other things going on that are within my purview as Secretary of State and National Security Advisor, but pardons aren't one of them. | ||
| So I just, I can't comment on a case that, frankly, I'm aware of, but not deeply and familiar with. | ||
| And I don't want to comment on something that I haven't had a chance to be involved in reviewing the file and the rationale behind it. | ||
| So he knows nothing. | ||
| Amazing. | ||
| So he knows nothing. | ||
| He knows nothing of any of this and he wants to be president. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I mean, folks, this is pathetic. | |
| How is Marco Rubio being taken seriously as a candidate? | ||
| He just came out and said, nobody talked to me about this decision and I know nothing about it. | ||
| Well, gee, golly, you don't sound presidential at all. | ||
| And it sounds like nobody in D.C. has any faith in you either. | ||
| And by the way, now you can interpret this however you want, but if you look at this, it looks like when Trump is speaking of this pardon, it looks like in this video that he's giving Rubio the credit for the pardon. | ||
| Watch this. | ||
| I studied it very quickly and then I studied it in great detail. | ||
| I went to a lot of the people standing behind me. | ||
| He points at Rubio. | ||
| So let me play this again. | ||
| So, this is a press conference. | ||
| He gets asked about the president of Honduras getting the pardon. | ||
| Rubio is standing right behind him, and he says, I talked to the people behind me, points directly at Rubio and says they are the ones that helped me make this decision. | ||
| And this is Rubio saying I had nothing to do with it. | ||
| So, what's going on here? | ||
| I studied it very quickly, and then I studied it in great detail. | ||
| I went to a lot of the people standing behind me, and they felt that that man was persecuted and treated very badly. | ||
| That's why I gave him a pardon. | ||

| I studied it very quickly, and then I studied it in great detail. | ||
| I went to a lot of the people standing behind me, pointing at Rubio, and they felt that that man was persecuted and treated very badly. | ||
| That's what now that would make sense. | ||
| Trump says, I barely reviewed the file, and then I studied it in depth with who would you do that with your secretary of state? | ||
| Of course, you would. | ||
| And then Rubio comes out and says, Oh, I know nothing about it. | ||
| Well, somebody's lying or everybody's lying. | ||
| It's really sad. | ||
| Now, again, most it seems like most people in MAGA, you're kind of back to establishment, right-wing politics, neoconservatism, the Republican establishment. | ||
| You know, this is who Trump is riding with now. | ||
| But it's just like, you know, for me, the right wing loved me. | ||
| The right wing loved me. | ||
| And MAGA loved me when I was out here showing the blatant hypocrisies, logical fallacies, logical inconsistencies, and outright ignorance of the American left. | ||
| The American right loved me. | ||
| MAGA loved me when I was exposing all of that on the left. | ||
| Well, now I'm exposing it on the right, and they just can't stand it. | ||
| They just can't stand it. | ||
| They don't like it. | ||
| I'm not supposed to be doing that. | ||
| Well, sorry. | ||
| I'm loyal to the truth. | ||
| And I really don't even have an option in the matter. | ||
| And now you want to know who's setting themselves up for gotchas. | ||
| You want to know who's setting themselves up to be proven hypocrites now? | ||
| It's MAGA. | ||
| It's Marco Rubio with George Stephanopoulos. | ||
| So I never intended on entering in this fray, but here we are. | ||
| And that's what's happening. | ||
| It wasn't even over. | ||
| He said, I'm going to go on meet the press. | ||
| Let's see how that one went for old bubble boy. | ||
| Need to take over the Venezuelan oil industry. | ||
| Well, we don't need to. | ||
| First of all, let me go back up. | ||
| We don't need Venezuela's oil. | ||
| We have plenty of oil in the United States. | ||
| What we're not going to allow is for the oil industry in Venezuela to be controlled by adversaries of the United States. | ||
| You have to understand why China need their oil. | ||
| Why does Russia need their oil? | ||
| Why does Iran need their oil? | ||
| They're not even in this continent. | ||
| This is the Western hemisphere. | ||
| This is where we live. | ||
| And we're not going to allow the Western hemisphere to be a base of operation for adversaries, competitors, and rivals of the United States. | ||
| Have specific oil companies. | ||
| We also want to see that oil and the proceeds from it. | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| We want to see the oil proceeds of that country benefit the people of Venezuela. | ||
| Why have 8 million people left Venezuela? | ||
| 8 million, the single largest mass migration probably in modern history, left Venezuela since 2014, because all the wealth of that country was stolen to the benefit of Maduro and his cronies and the regime, but not to the benefit of people of Venezuela. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So maybe, maybe there's nothing here to disagree with. | ||
| Maybe what he's describing here is all accurate. | ||
| But boy, that sounds a lot like what happened to the American people, doesn't it? | ||
| That sounds an awful like our wealth was stolen and redistributed and given to the rich and the wealthy and we lost control of our own manufacturing and resources. | ||
| I mean, gee, that sounds like what's happened to America. | ||
| So, again, if we can go in and capture Maduro, why can't we capture Alejandro Mayorkas? | ||
| If we can go in here and save a foreign country that's been looted, its people have been looted and robbed and enslaved by its political class, why can't we do that to America? | ||
| Why can't we save our own country first? | ||
| So, why are we saving other countries before we save our own? | ||
| Isn't that the ultimate question? | ||
| Destabilizing 8 million migrants is the number one fear that Brazil has. | ||
| Oh, who destabilizes migrants that then flood into the West? | ||
| Again, you're describing America here, Secretary Rubio. | ||
| Colombia has, that all these countries in the region have about what's happening in Venezuela and our involvement is they're afraid of another mass migration event. | ||
| That's what they feel. | ||
| This is deeply destabilizing stuff. | ||
| And now, Secretary Noam has come out and said, yes, we will take Venezuelans into the country. | ||
| And all the Venezuelans apparently celebrating in the streets, waving their Venezuelan flags, they're not going back. | ||
| They're all staying here too. | ||
| But of course, there is no conspiracy here that Israel had anything to do with it. | ||
| There's no proof of that. | ||
| Nobody's saying that. | ||
| So don't even bother, right? | ||
| Don't even bother. | ||
| Except here is the ambassador to Israel. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What happens in Venezuela? | |
| What happens in Israel? | ||
| Everything's connected. | ||
| Iran. | ||
| First off, let me ask you this, Ambassador, your reaction when you saw what happened with the military and law enforcement operation in Venezuela. | ||
| Well, my first reaction, Rob, was to say, praise the Lord and thank you, President Trump. | ||
| A lot of people may not make the connection as to why this matters to us in the Middle East. | ||
| What they don't know is that Hezbollah is so crazy. | ||
| I'm sorry to pause this and I'll start it back off with Huggaby. | ||
| Folks, this is so crazy. | ||
| You watched these MAGA sycophants and these Israel firsters or these ignoramuses on the right. | ||
| They say, you just think Israel's tied into everything. | ||
| Folks, the ambassador of Israel is telling you Israel is tied into things. | ||
| Trump is telling you Israel is tied into everything. | ||
| Trump is telling you Israel should own Congress. | ||
| Trump is telling you that his top donors are all Israel first. | ||
| These are literally things that the administration is telling you that you love so much. | ||
| You love this administration. | ||
| You're in a cult for this administration now. | ||
| They're the ones saying this stuff. | ||
| So when they say it, you either ignore it or you love it. | ||
| But when I say it, I'm somehow the bad guy. | ||
| I'm somehow a hater. | ||
| I've somehow gone crazy. | ||
| They're the ones saying it. | ||
| I'm the messenger. | ||
| I'm showing you what they're saying. | ||
| So it's just, this has to be one of the craziest things that we've witnessed. | ||
| This has to be one of the craziest things that we've witnessed. | ||
| I can literally say exactly what Huckabee says, exactly what Rubio says, exactly what Trump says. | ||
| And when I say it, I get attacked by the right wing. | ||
| But when Huckabee or Rubio or Trump says it, they're told how great they are, even though we say the exact same thing. | ||
| And by the way, that is the psychological tell that these people are in a cult. | ||
| When somebody from outside of the cult says the exact same thing that somebody inside of the cult says and they respond differently to it, there's your proof they're in the cult. | ||
| So you just think everything's tied into Israel. | ||
| You just think everything leads back to Israel. | ||
| No, I'm telling you what the ambassador to Israel just said, and that's what he believes. | ||
| Rob was to say, praise the Lord and thank you, President Trump. | ||
| A lot of people may not make the connection as to why this matters to us in the Middle East. | ||
| What they don't know is that Hezbollah is very active in Venezuela. | ||
| There has been a 20-year partnership between Iran and Venezuela under both the two previous dictators. | ||
| The ties are deep, and Hezbollah operates in 12 different countries throughout South America. | ||
| It is not just a threat in the Western hemisphere. | ||
| So they're going to overthrow 12 countries now is what he just told you. | ||
| It is a threat to the Middle East. | ||
| So for the president to go after Venezuela, not only- And why do I care about that? | ||
| Why- Why do I care about that again? | ||
| Oh, that's right, because Israel runs our country. | ||
| Oh, no, no, that's a conspiracy theory, even though here's how I could be admitting it. | ||
| He deals with narcoterrorism and the many deaths of Americans who are killed by the poison of drugs. | ||
| It is going to make life for those of us living. | ||
| Killed by the poison of drugs? | ||
| You mean like big pharma drugs? | ||
| You mean like the COVID vaccines? | ||
| Or do you mean like free people that choose to ingest a drug? | ||
| It's their own personal choice, which I don't support that, but they are the ones that choose to do these drugs. | ||
| And that will always exist, by the way, no matter what you do. | ||
| In the Middle East, much better, much safer to take Maduro out to recognize that Hezbollah is active here, targeting not just Jewish people all over South America, but using those tentacles to ultimately reach into the United States. | ||
| This is good news for America. | ||
| Good news for the world. | ||
| Incredible. | ||
| We're taking out a bad guy in Venezuela. | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Tell me, who's done more things to harm America? | ||
| Barack Obama or Nicolas Maduro? | ||
| Ooh. | ||
| Who's betrayed the American people? | ||
| Who's committed more crimes against the American people? | ||
| Joe Biden or Nicolas Maduro? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ooh. | |
| Alejandro Mayorkas or Nicolas Maduro? | ||
| John Brennan, James Clapper. | ||
| Do you want me to go on? | ||
| Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton. | ||
| Should we just keep going down the list? | ||
| And how many of them have been arrested? | ||
| Oh, but we got a bad guy in Venezuela. | ||
| Okay, when are we going to get the bad guys in America? | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| I don't live in Venezuela. | ||
| I don't have any interest in going to Venezuela. | ||
| I don't think Venezuela should or would be our problem if we didn't want it to be. | ||
| We got the bad guy. | ||
| When do we get our bad guys? | ||
| If logic can't be applied universally, it's not logic. | ||
| It's propaganda. | ||
| And then you have, again, I'm just telling you, I could do this for days, but for the sake of time, Israel Hayom reveals that it was Israel indeed that pushed Trump towards regime change in Venezuela. | ||
| You can go look at the story. | ||
| Venezuela has become one of the most hostile countries to Israel and Zionism in Latin America. | ||
| And so the Israeli lobbyists pushed Donald Trump into doing that. | ||
| Will you restore diplomatic relations with Israel and establish Venezuela's embassy location in Jerusalem as President Trump did? | ||
| Certainly, Venezuela will be Israel's closest ally now in Latin America. | ||
| We rely on Israel's support in dismantling Maduro's crime regime and in the transition to democracy. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| The Venezuelan people deeply admire Israel and will always defend its right to live in peace without threat to its existence. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| So, when you start to see these people telling you, oh, why do you think everything's tied into Israel? | ||
| Because I follow the news and current events and what people in politics say, and they all say it ties to Israel, not me. | ||
| They say that. | ||
| I report the news. | ||
| You don't. | ||
| Mike Pompeo. | ||
| What we already knew, confirming it. | ||
| Mossad agents walking amongst the protesters in Iran. | ||
| As if we didn't already know that that was the case. | ||
| Now, I think, and I said this before, I think Trump is just so high right now that it's just, he just feels invincible. | ||
| And since he's gotten this far without getting, I guess, put in prison, he survived the assassination attempts. | ||
| He just figures, I'm just going to do whatever the hell I want. | ||
| So now that this regime change, this capture of Maduro was so successful. | ||
| Listen to what he says on the phone. | ||
| This is the first thing he said afterwards. | ||
| Listen to this. | ||
| But we can't take a chance after having done this incredible thing last night of letting somebody else take over where we have to do it again. | ||
| We can do it again, too. | ||
| Nobody can stop us. | ||
| There's nobody that has the capability that we have. | ||
| You know, when I watch that war in Russia going on and on and on, and everybody dying, it's like it's primitive. | ||
| It's primitive. | ||
| It's horrible. | ||
| And he's right about that, by the way. | ||
| I agree with that. | ||
| But so, again, if we can do it in Venezuela, why can't we do it here? | ||
| Why can't we go after our own deep state criminals? | ||
| Why can't we go after our own treasonous criminals? | ||
| Trump has been talking about the treason in D.C. for eight years. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What are we doing? | |
| Why can't we get them first? | ||
| Isn't that America first? | ||
| Now, Tulsi Gabbard is getting some heat. | ||
| I don't necessarily think it's fair, but here's why. | ||
| Now, this was Tulsi Gabbard in 2019, the first time the Trump administration was talking about Venezuela and John Bolton. | ||
| It's about the oil again. | ||
| Bolton just exposed the real motive for intervention in Venezuela. | ||
| We're in a conversation with major American companies now. | ||
| It would make a difference if we could have American companies produce the oil in Venezuela. | ||
| We both have a lot at stake here. | ||
| So that was Gabbard in 2019. | ||
| She was right then. | ||
| Now, she's getting a lot of heat because she's been silent on this. | ||
| And people are putting together compilations of all the different things she said about Venezuela and not doing regime change war there for years. | ||
| So she's getting some heat because they're saying, well, why are you saying that then? | ||
| And you're silent now. | ||
| Now, I already explained this a couple of weeks ago, but I'll re-emphasize this now. | ||
| I think, you know, I think Tulsi Gabbard cut a deal with Trump where she said that she would endorse President Trump and help him get some of the libertarian votes, some of the centrist liberal votes, so that he could win election. | ||
| And Trump would give her a position in the administration when he won. | ||
| If the exact role of national security advisor was discussed or not, I don't know. | ||
| But I think it's a pretty, I'd say it's 98% chance that that's how that transaction went. | ||
| You endorse me, I give you a role in the administration. | ||
| So I think Gabbard is just biding her time. | ||
| And I think Gabbard probably has made the decision that it makes more sense for me to stay here and stay silent and stay here and see what's going on. | ||
| Wherever I can inject or want to inject, I will. | ||
| But I might as well just stay here, monitor things, learn things, see how things are going, and at least hold my post as long as I possibly can. | ||
| And even though I might get hit with some criticism because I'm silent, I can course correct in the future when I finally get to say my piece. | ||
| So that's how I think it's going. | ||
| But yeah, she got pushed out early. | ||
| She got pushed out of the conversations early, and she's basically just sticking around as a seat holder. | ||
| I don't think she has much impact, but she is still there. | ||
| And I think that she's just waiting until it's time for her to speak her mind on these things. | ||
| But she is getting some heat for that. | ||
| I understand both sides of it. | ||
| I understand why she's still hanging around and staying silent, but I understand why people are giving her a hard time too. | ||
| But I do think she'll have the opportunity eventually to say her piece when the time is appropriate. | ||
| Now, this is something that's going to be crazy. | ||
| And I shot a video on Saturday explaining that this is going to start happening. | ||
| I said, what you're going to see is all of these world leaders that Trump is now going to posture us against, they're all going to come out and they're all going to sound like Trump when he was campaigning. | ||
| And they're all going to talk about how we have a deep state, how we have foreign and special interests that run our country and run these regime change wars, and they run it for oil. | ||
| These are all the things MAGA used to say. | ||
| These are all the things Trump used to say. | ||
| Well, now the foreign leaders like Putin and Maduro and now the Colombian president, Petro, now they're all saying it, but they're our enemy. | ||
| So now the people that Trump is going to take out of power are warning us about our own deep state and foreign and special interests that run it and that run regime change wars for oil. | ||
| This is one of the craziest things you're ever going to see. | ||
| Maduro has said it. | ||
| Putin has said it. | ||
| Now Petro is saying it. | ||
| Others will be coming out and saying it soon too. | ||
| Now, you could say they're just saying that to cater to us and maybe even propagandize us. | ||
| And yet they are right, though. | ||
| It is true. | ||
| There is a deep state that runs these wars and they're still in power. | ||
| And now the people that Trump is trying to take out are the ones warning us about our own deep state. | ||
| This is one of the craziest developments we've seen now as we enter 2026. | ||
| Now, here it is with the captions. | ||
| A clan of pedophiles. | ||
| He's saying a clan of pedophiles run D.C., folks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's hard, yes, but there's the reality. | |
| And so that they don't get out of the list, then they send us the people to kill fishermen from this city. | ||
| And now he's saying, and they're trying to distract us from the Epstein pedophile list by running regime change wars and bombing fishermen boats. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And threatening the neighbor. | |
| So anyway, for the sake of time, we'll pull that down. | ||
| But there you go. | ||
| So again, you can believe him or trust him. | ||
| I'm not telling you to, but listen to what he says. | ||
| There is a deep state in America run by pedophiles, special and foreign interests, and they run these wars. | ||
| Do you disagree with that? | ||
| Because that was a cornerstone of MAGA. | ||
| That was a cornerstone of original MAGA and of 2024 MAGA. | ||
| We all talked about the deep state. | ||
| We all talked about the pedophiles. | ||
| That was mainstream MAGA. | ||
| Now, the foreign leaders that are talking about this, Trump wants to remove them from power. | ||
| I'm not even going to bother trying to wrap my head around that. | ||
| Let's just take that for what it is. | ||
| Now, here's Trump. | ||
| What happened to Trump? | ||
| What happened to this Donald Trump? | ||
|
unidentified
|
The world would be better off with Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi in power. | |
| 100%. | ||
|
unidentified
|
As far as Assad is concerned, what about the human rights abuses? | |
| Let's talk about what you don't think they're happening now. | ||
| They're worse now than they ever were. | ||
| People are getting their heads chopped off. | ||
| They're being drowned. | ||
| Right now, they're far worse than they were ever under Saddam Hussein or Gaddafi. | ||
| And it all blew up around Hillary Clinton and around Barack Obama. | ||
| It all blew up. | ||
| Now, one thing about Assad, not a good guy. | ||
| I understand that. | ||
| We have to rebuild our country. | ||
| Our country's falling to pieces. | ||
| We have 19 trillion in debt. | ||
| We have infrastructure that's a disaster. | ||
| Our roadways, our airports, our schools, everything. | ||
| We have to start thinking about ourselves. | ||
| We're pouring trillions of dollars into the Middle East, and we have nothing for it. | ||
| We have nothing. | ||
| What happened to that, Donald Trump? | ||
| That's the Donald Trump I elected. | ||
| That's the America-first Donald Trump. | ||
| That's the goaded Donald Trump. | ||
| What happened to that Trump that tells the truth, tells it like it is, and puts America first and tells the American people how things really work. | ||
| What happened to that, Donald Trump? | ||
| I agree with everything he said, and so did all of MAGA. | ||
| Here's some more. | ||
| We're going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper, and judicious transition. | ||
| Our current strategy of nation building and regime change is a proven absolute failure. | ||
| We won't break the cycle of regime change. | ||
| We must abandon the failed policy of nation building and regime change that Hillary Clinton pushed in Iraq, in Libya, in Egypt, and in Syria. | ||
| Regime change takes chaos. | ||
| You've seen how that works over the last 20 years. | ||
| That hasn't been too good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Not a reckless interventionist globalism. | |
| We're getting out of the nation building business. | ||
| We're going to stay until such time as the proper transition can take. | ||
| So there you go. | ||
| His own words. | ||
| You can try to justify that. | ||
| He can try to justify that. | ||
| The people that still support all this can try to justify that. | ||
| I'm just showing you there it is right there. | ||
| Clearly, something has changed. | ||
| Clearly, the Donald Trump that said those things and ran on those issues is not our president now. | ||
| So you can try to figure out why, wrap your head around it, but there it is. | ||
| Here's one more for you, just to add the cherry on top. | ||
| And I could do this for an hour, by the way, but we'll just add one little sprinkle on top here. | ||
| We are finally putting America first. | ||
| Our policy of never-ending war, regime change, and nation building is being replaced by the clear-eyed pursuit of American interests. | ||
| Clear-eyed pursuit of American interests. | ||
| Well, it's definitely not clear-eyed anymore. | ||
| And I'm not so sure it's in America's interests either. | ||
| Now, you had this, which tells you whose interest it is in. | ||
| Finance industry eyes investment opportunities in Venezuela. | ||
| So it's BlackRock, State Street. | ||
| It's all the same central banks. | ||
| It's all the same donor class. | ||
| It's all the same 1% of the 1%. | ||
| It's all the same people. | ||
| And they're going to go into Ukraine after that. | ||
| They're going to go into Gaza after that. | ||
| And now they're going to go into Venezuela after this. | ||
| And Trump is giving it to them. | ||
| This is the globalists that we used to run against. | ||
| These are the globalists that we used to bang heads with. | ||
| This is the corrupt centralization of power and the corporate world government that we used to rage against and rally against. | ||
| And now everybody loves it. | ||
| Now everybody's for it. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Let's just tell it like it is. | ||
| And that's what it is. | ||
| And then, by the way, you know, it's funny there's these people because I'm always consistent here. | ||
| You always get consistency from me. | ||
| You can have at it on social media with me for a couple of rounds, and then I say, I'm not doing this on social media. | ||
| You got to come on the show. | ||
| And so there's three people now that are afraid of me. | ||
| Cam Higbee gave up after I beat him in a social media debate. | ||
| Laura Loomer, she's ghosted me now after I asked her to come on the show. | ||
| Max Nordeau, who constantly follows everything I do, probably tuned in right now. | ||
| Hi, Max. | ||
| Do you enjoy the view? | ||
| Sorry, I know it's not my best hair day, Max. | ||
| I know you're probably tuned in to stare at me and drool over me, but I didn't do my hair too much today. | ||
| So I apologize to you, Max. | ||
| You're probably having a hard time because I don't look my best today. | ||
| Sorry, it's a Monday. | ||
| All these people attack me all day long, and they're all scared of me. | ||
| None of them will face me one-on-one. | ||
| I wonder why that is. | ||
| What are you guys so scared of? | ||
| If I'm such a moron, if I'm so low class, if I'm so low brow, if I'm so low information, why are you guys running from me? | ||
| All right, aside from that little thing. | ||
| And look, I don't know. | ||
| I'd probably still get along with Laura as a friend. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But I have to say it's disgusting. | ||
| MAGA has now become exactly what the radical left was, folks. | ||
| It's the exact same thing. | ||
| It's just on the different side of the political spectrum. | ||
| They're filled with hate. | ||
| They're filled with vitriol. | ||
| They are nasty, disgusting people. | ||
| And if you want the proof, look at what they're doing to Marjorie Taylor Greene. | ||
| And I'll just pull this up for your own reference. | ||
| Marjorie Taylor Green, who is one of the last good members of Congress, but she doesn't want to put Israel first. | ||
| So naturally, Laura Loomer has to attack her. | ||
| Or she's not in the Trump cult. | ||
| So Laura Loomer has to attack her. | ||
| So she's celebrating because MTG is out. | ||
| This is a horrible day for America. | ||
| This is a horrible day for America First. | ||
| Losing MTG is a horrible day, but it's good for the Zionists. | ||
| It's good for the Israel loyalists. | ||
| So here she is celebrating that MTG is out. | ||
| And Loomer, as psychotic as she is, she's now in. | ||
| So Loomer is in. | ||
| MTG, rational, grounded, America First, she's out. | ||
| But folks, whatever. | ||
| I expect that from Laura. | ||
| Go into the replies here and look at how sick these people have become. | ||
| Look at how sick MAGA has become. | ||
| And you're going to go look at this stuff and you're going to say, this is exactly what we got from the radical left. | ||
| Exactly, folks. | ||
| The woke right is the same as the woke left. | ||
| These are the same people. | ||
| They have the same psychology. | ||
| They're under the same brainwashing. | ||
| It's just a different flavor. | ||
| It's just a different hat. | ||
| But it's the same psychology. | ||
| And so, hey, fine. | ||
| You have a political disagreement with MTG and you're glad that she's gone because she won't put Israel first. | ||
| Fine. | ||
| But folks, go look at how disgusting these people are. | ||
| Go look at how sick and psychotic these people are and the things that they say about MTG, who's one of the last good people in Congress. | ||
| It's really sad. | ||
| It's really sad. | ||
| Now, this is from 2009. | ||
| This is a documentary from Israel. | ||
| This is the president of Israel in 2009, talking about Venezuela. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hi, Abe. | |
| What we, I wanted to ask you since we met last about the Israel-Venezuela. | ||
| Because I heard voices kind of saying it's not so bad, and Latin America is not so bad. | ||
| But I'm not convinced. | ||
| You have good reason not to be good. | ||
| It is getting worse. | ||
| And little by little, as long as oil money works. | ||
| I'm told that by all experts, it's the only, except for Iran, it's the only government propagated anti-Semitism around the world. | ||
| Formally, right? | ||
| It's the first thing within the country. | ||
| So are you pressing in any way? | ||
| We've talked to Jesse Jackson, right? | ||
| It's not for Cameron, but there are other plans. | ||
| I'm going to talk about it in a minute. | ||
| Oh, there you go. | ||
| Israel has been planning to overthrow Iran and Venezuela since 2009. | ||
| There's your proof. | ||
| But if I say that, I'm crazy for thinking everything ties into Israel and goes back to Israel, even though here's more evidence, even though all the proof, all the evidence is right there in front of you. | ||
| And I'm showing it to you. | ||
| Is that not enough? | ||
| Would you like some more? | ||
| Okay, fine. | ||
| I have more from you. | ||
| This is also from 2009. | ||
| Same year, 2009, Congressman James trafficking is a democracy and is our ally. | ||
| Yes, they are. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Explain to me what you see as why you target or why you have a grudge against the Israelis. | |
| The grudge is not necessarily a grudge. | ||
| It's an objective assessment that no one will have the courage to speak about. | ||
| This may be you don't want to hear. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| And I certainly don't want to hurt you on your show. | ||
| You have one of the best. | ||
| You're fair. | ||
| But I believe that Israel has a powerful stranglehold on the American government. | ||
| They control both members of the House, the House and the Senate. | ||
| They have us involved in wars in which we have little or no interest. | ||
| Our children are coming back in body bags. | ||
| Our nation is bankrupt over these wars. | ||
| And if you open your mouth, you get targeted. | ||
| And if they don't beat you at the poll, they'll put you in prison. | ||
| They're controlling much of our foreign policy. | ||
| They're influencing much of our domestic policy. | ||
| Wolfowitz's Under Secretary of Defense manipulated President Bush number two back into Iraq. | ||
| They pushed definitely, definitely to try and get Bush before he left to move into Iran. | ||
| We're conducting an expansionist policy of Israel, and everybody's afraid to say it. | ||
| They control much of the media. | ||
| They control much of the commerce of the country. | ||
| And they control powerfully both bodies of the Congress. | ||
| They own the Congress. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Are you anti-Semite? | |
| No, I'm not. | ||
| That's exactly what they're going to say. | ||
| We have a one-sided foreign policy in the Mideast, and we've alienated Arabs who have no way of fighting. | ||
| So what they've done, and I predicted this on the House floor, is they would export violence to America, and they have. | ||
| They have no other way to fight. | ||
| I'm saying this to you right now. | ||
| Israel gets approximately $15 billion a year from the American taxpayers. | ||
| That $15 billion is $30,000 for every man, woman, and child. | ||
| People in my district are losing their pension benefits. | ||
| And he died four years after that in a car accident. | ||
| Both of those clips are from 2009. | ||
| By the way, there's a new bill on the Senate floor. | ||
| The Senate wants $5.6 billion to bring foreigners in and give them welfare. | ||
| The House wants it at $4.3 billion. | ||
| So nobody's stopping. | ||
| Nobody's stopping the importation of all these migrants. | ||
| Nobody's stopping the foreign aid. | ||
| Nobody's stopping the communism, the welfare state. | ||
| Nobody's stopping it, folks. | ||
| And there's no outrage. | ||
| Now that Trump's in power, everything's great, even though everything is still happening. | ||
| Nothing is changing. | ||
| In fairness, let me even correct myself. | ||
| The federal budget was decreased. | ||
| That is true. | ||
| The Trump administration did decrease the federal budget and the federal workers have decreased. | ||
| That is true. | ||
| That is true. | ||
| And the border crossings are at record lows. | ||
| So that is all true. | ||
| But let's not kid ourselves. | ||
| The foreign aid is still going. | ||
| The foreign wars are still going. | ||
| The migrants are still coming in and they're still getting welfare. | ||
| And now they're putting it into budget bills to the tunes of billions of dollars. | ||
| So let's just keep it all 100 here. | ||
| And these are our number one allies here. | ||
| Batar Worldwide describes itself as a Zionist movement of Zaev Jabotinsky, founded in 1923, Jewish pride, Jewish defense, Jewish sovereignty, Israel-based chapters worldwide. | ||
| And they do have chapters in America. | ||
| I've talked with their New York chapter. | ||
| So this is what they had to say. | ||
| They say, we wish upon Angelina Jolie the same fate as our women who went to Gaza. | ||
| We wish for jihad and Intifada upon her home. | ||
| She entered and will exit Gaza through Egypt, which won't permit Gazans to exit Jew-hating Jolie. | ||
| So they sound like a really nice group of people that you want to ally yourself with. | ||
| James O'Keefe tells the big secret of DC. | ||
| You want to know why it's so easy to compromise these people? | ||
| You want to know why James O'Keefe and his crew are now using undercover gay men on gay dating apps to capture these videos that they get? | ||
| Here's why. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Most people in DC are gay, and the ones who are not openly are secretly gay. | |
| And I know narcissist is an overused word, but let's be honest, we have a little bit of narcissism in us. | ||
| But in Washington, D.C., and in politics in particular, people are so blinded by the love of power and they're so in love with themselves that it's almost like they're in this little psychological cocoon where they're not even paying attention to the guy across from them. | ||
| They will literally not ask me one question about myself. | ||
| These are Harvard educated people, Georgetown professors, national security people. | ||
| People with top secret clearances are sitting across from me, not asking me one question about me. | ||
| Why? | ||
| In short, they're in love with themselves. | ||
| And it creates this weird veneer where they're making it all about them. | ||
| So my undercover people, I give them a book. | ||
| It's called It's Not About Me. | ||
| And it's all about making it about the other guy. | ||
| You just express genuine interest in them. | ||
| And that's what nobody in politics actually does. | ||
| Yeah, they're all gay and they're all narcissists. | ||
| All right, I'll tell you what, a couple odds and ends here, but we've just hit the end of the second hour. | ||
| So let's close out this hour. | ||
| Let's come back, take some super chats, take some phone calls. | ||
| Second hour of the Owen Report is now in the books. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Listening to the Owen Report on the Wynn Network. | |
| It's the fastest three hours on the Internet. | ||
| It's the Owen Report with Owen Schroyer. | ||
| So what were conversations like over the Christmas break for you? | ||
| Christmas parties, New Year's parties, everything in between. | ||
| What were those conversations like? | ||
| What were people talking about? | ||
| Because from my experience, no matter where I go, no matter what social circle I'm in, they all sound a lot like me. | ||
| They all seem to be reaching the same conclusions that I'm reaching. | ||
| It's amazing how that works. | ||
| And I don't even volunteer my opinions. | ||
| But people just know, either people who know who I am or what I do or just friends of mine. | ||
| Everywhere I go, I get approached at ball games and concerts at the gym at parties, you know, Christmas, New Year's, everything. | ||
| I travel wherever it is. | ||
| They all reach the same conclusions that we reach right here on this show. | ||
| And the truth is, that's because it's so obvious. | ||
| Isn't it so obvious now? | ||
| Well, I guess maybe not for all. | ||
| I guess maybe it's not so obvious for all, but some people are still brainwashed. | ||
| That's all right. | ||
| They'll be with us someday. | ||
| They'll be with us someday. | ||
| I'll tell you what, let's do this before we open the phone lines. | ||
| Why don't we take some super chats? | ||
| The super chats, this is not something I normally do, but we did that. | ||
| We did that late transmission Friday night, Saturday morning, and the super chats were so great. | ||
| It was such a success. | ||
| We did a lot of the shit with them. | ||
| So we're going to be, I think we're going to be leaning into those a little bit more now. | ||
| And as I said, folks, this YouTube super chats, they get, I've got a little system over here. | ||
| I won't give you the, you know, the details of it, but basically when you send a super chat on YouTube, it saves in my system. | ||
| And so I can always keep it and read it. | ||
| When you give a rumble rant, if you're watching on Rumble and you give a Rumble rant, those don't stay. | ||
| So if I don't see it, it's gone. | ||
| Whereas the super chats actually stay in my system and I can go back and read them no matter what time. | ||
| I don't monitor the chat too much while I'm doing the show because it's a distraction and people are in there trying to mess with you. | ||
| So that's why I don't just lean on the chat for the whole show. | ||
| But the super chats have been good on YouTube. | ||
| So we'll probably be leaning into those normally at the end of the show. | ||
| But I think maybe since I'm going to open the phone lines after this, maybe we'll go to the super chats first today since they were just great. | ||
| They were really great in that transmission. | ||
| So let's do that. | ||
| Some people just give the super chat. | ||
| They don't even want a comment. | ||
| We'll just give them a shout out. | ||
| So thanks to Hipster Trey. | ||
| Thank you for the super chat. | ||
| Okay, here we go. | ||
| Hey, Owen Taytay from Florida. | ||
| Venezuelan vids are fake. | ||
| Oh, yes. | ||
| What is up with that? | ||
| And look, you know, hey, people make mistakes. | ||
| And sometimes when you're in a breaking news story, you want to get it up as soon as possible. | ||
| And maybe you don't do your due diligence. | ||
| And so you just see a video and you just post it. | ||
| You want to get it out. | ||
| It's breaking, whatever. | ||
| Well, it's turned out about 90% of these videos that people are posting on social media claiming it's from Venezuela and claiming it's the Venezuelan people responding to Maduro's capture. | ||
| 90% of those videos are not from Venezuela or are not even from this year. | ||
| They're sharing videos from Chile. | ||
| They're sharing videos from Florida. | ||
| They're sharing videos outside of soccer stadiums. | ||
| They're sharing World Cup celebrations. | ||
| Okay, mistakes happen. | ||
| But you know what? | ||
| None of them have even deleted one and none of them have admitted that they shared propaganda with you. | ||
| None of them have admitted that. | ||
| So what's up with that? | ||
| Making the mistake or sharing the wrong video or whatever. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| It happens. | ||
| That's all right. | ||
| I'm not too, yeah, okay. | ||
| But to leave it up and not even bother retracting or not even bother saying, hey, this was a video from something else and I misrepresented what it was. | ||
| What's up with that? | ||
| That's even weirder to me. | ||
| Making a mistake and sharing the video. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But then just not even telling people that you propagandized them? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| That's a weird one. | ||
| That's a weird one. | ||
| From player hater one, sports reference to the Trump D suckers. | ||
| They're like Joel Embiid when he said trust the process on the 76ers. | ||
| We've seen how that went. | ||
| Keep killing it, Owen. | ||
| Much love from Tucson, Arizona. | ||
| Well, you sound like you might be a disgruntled 76ers fan. | ||
| Didn't your Simmons was the top pick. | ||
| I think he's a fisher now. | ||
| I don't think he does deep sea fishing now. | ||
| I don't think he's playing in the league anymore. | ||
| He's not in the association. | ||
| So yeah, the process isn't working. | ||
| Look, let me put that into political terms. | ||
| People probably won't understand your reference. | ||
| People keep saying trust the plan. | ||
| What plan? | ||
| What plan? | ||
| There's no plan for me to trust. | ||
| You can say trust Trump. | ||
| Okay, well, I can trust Trump, but I can only go off of what I see and what he does. | ||
| I don't know of a plan. | ||
| So you tell me, trust the plan. | ||
| What plan? | ||
| They say trust the plan. | ||
| What plan? | ||
| What is the plan? | ||
| What plan have you seen? | ||
| Here's an example. | ||
| They say that Maduro was brought in because he was part of the 2020 election stolen. | ||
| Well, okay. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| I hope that's the case. | ||
| I hope that we have done our due diligence and investigating how the 2020 election was stolen. | ||
| And if it leads to Maduro, then okay. | ||
| And if we got him, then okay. | ||
| But as far as I can tell, there is no evidence of that. | ||
| The president has not said that. | ||
| None of the indictment documents are stating that. | ||
| So where are you getting this from? | ||
| Trust the plan. | ||
| What plan? | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| What plan do you know of? | ||
| Who's told you of said plan? | ||
| Did Trump say anything about Maduro being connected to the 2020 stolen election? | ||
| No. | ||
| Do the indictment documents have anything about the 2020 election in them? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| So what are you talking about? | ||
| Now, again, if this stuff comes out and that ends up being the case, then I will report on it. | ||
| And I will tell you that. | ||
| There is no evidence that I can show on this transmission that that is the case. | ||
| None. | ||
| So what am I supposed to do? | ||
| Come out to my audience and say, they're arresting Maduro for stealing the 2020 election. | ||
| Well, what evidence do you have of that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
None. | |
| Okay. | ||
| Is that what you want me to do? | ||
| So I don't know of any plan. | ||
| I don't know what plan they're talking about. | ||
| And as far as I can see, there has been no official statement or indication that this has anything to do with the 2020 stolen election. | ||
| And here's the other thing. | ||
| Folks, we already know what they did to steal the election. | ||
| You don't need to go to Venezuela. | ||
| You don't even need to look at the voting machines. | ||
| Now, you can have problems with the voting machines and you can talk about how they are corrupted or can be corrupted. | ||
| And I'm right there with you. | ||
| No, they violated the state constitution in five states. | ||
| And they violated the Constitution so that they could do mail-in ballots and that they could count illegal votes. | ||
| And then there were people that just closed the doors and just were counting the same votes over and over again. | ||
| That's how Joe Biden got 80 million votes. | ||
| So we don't even need to look outside of the country to find out where the election fraud happened. | ||
| It all happened right here. | ||
| Now, there could have been voting machine issues and other factors too, but we already know what happened right here and there's been nothing done. | ||
| So I'm sick of this thing where they say, oh, trust the plan, or, oh, this is supposed to be that. | ||
| When I have any evidence of that, I will tell you. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| But I have no evidence of that. | ||
| So I'm not going to sell something to my audience that I have no evidence of. | ||
| I'm not going to do that here. | ||
| So the day that any of these plans are revealed, the day that they come out and say, all right, Maduro was part of the steal of 2020, I will tell you that's what's happening. | ||
| But nobody has said that. | ||
| There is no official statement. | ||
| It's not in the indictment documents, and I don't know of any plan. | ||
| But I do understand why people go with this stuff because it's so unbelievable the level of betrayal from Trump. | ||
| And so it's easier to deny that there's any betrayal and to believe in some secret magical plan than it is to swallow the hard pill that Trump is not the guy we elected and he's not the same Trump from 2016. | ||
| So for some, I guess that's a harder pill to swallow. | ||
| From PFF1974, what do you think of Ryan Dawson's theory that Venezuelan oil acquisition is to prepare for Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz, thus cutting Saudi oil? | ||
| Yeah, I do think there is a connection there. | ||
| I think, though, I can't say I know too much about Ryan Dawson's theory that you're bringing up here, but I've seen some of his social media posts, understand the direction. | ||
| I think that this is also a lot to do with what's going on in the Middle East with Gaza because they want to open up a new straight through Israel as well. | ||
| And that would go with stopping the dominance of the Strait of Hormuz. | ||
| This is the same reason why they want to give Somaliland to Israel so that they can have more control over that strait and they can bomb Yemen and take control of that trade. | ||
| So I do think all of these things are connected, but I don't know if that's like the be-all end-all, but I do think all of these different things are connected. | ||
| I do think even Greenland comes into play when it comes to these trade routes. | ||
| So yes, I think this has a lot to do with global trade. | ||
| But I think for Trump right now, I think for Trump right now in this moment, while that might be some bigger picture stuff that's developing right now, I think the reason why Trump did this now, no doubt there's influence from Netanyahu. | ||
| No doubt there's pressure from the Israel first donor class and the special interests and the oil companies and everything else. | ||
| There's no doubt that pressure being applied. | ||
| But I think Trump's reason for this right now, he knows the U.S. economy is not good. | ||
| And he knows that his trade war with China has mostly been, I don't know if I would say a failure, but it's been mostly a nothing. | ||
| It's been mostly nothing, probably a net negative, quite frankly. | ||
| It just isn't going the way that he hoped it would go. | ||
| And that was a tough shot. | ||
| That was a tough bullseye that he had to hit with that trade war. | ||
| And the stars just haven't aligned for it to happen. | ||
| And I think it was going to take years anyway to try to correct that course. | ||
| So I think that's why Trump is moving in this moment, because we need the oil. | ||
| We need the energy. | ||
| We need to find new routes for trade. | ||
| We need to find new geopolitical alliances for trade. | ||
| And I think that that is why strategically Trump is going after Venezuela now. | ||
| We need the energy. | ||
| We need the oil. | ||
| The economy is not good. | ||
| The trade war with China hasn't worked. | ||
| So I think that strategically for Trump, he looks at this as an injection of oil into the markets that will hopefully give a little boost to the economy and maybe give them a little more leverage in the war, in the trade war with China. | ||
| So that's what I think is happening there to answer your question from Angel Silva. | ||
| How many drug lords has the U.S. arrested, or is there no cartels inside the U.S.? | ||
| Hey, good question. | ||
| Who receives and collects the money? | ||
| Why not go after cartels inside the U.S.? | ||
| Also, war on drugs do not decrease consumption. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All true. | |
| And the war on drugs has failed, by the way. | ||
| The war on drugs has failed. | ||
| If you want to stop the cartels, you legalize drugs and you regulate drugs, obviously. | ||
| But then Big Pharma doesn't have a monopoly on the drug market. | ||
| See how that works? | ||
| So there's your answer to that. | ||
| Folks, I'm going to come right back with your super chats. | ||
| Give me a moment here. | ||
| I'm going to come right back with the super chats. | ||
| Sorry to do this here. | ||
| Like I said, the reason I moved the show up is because I got some family stuff going on tonight. | ||
| I need to take this call real quick. | ||
| Bear with me, folks. | ||
| This will just be a minute. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ladies and | |
| gentlemen, your new home for political play-by-play, the OWEN Report. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Sorry for that. | ||
| Sorry about that. | ||
| Just had to address a quick phone call there. | ||
| My apologies. | ||
| We're right back with you here. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Back to the super chats. | ||
| From vids of Doug, OnlyFans models, streaming strippers. | ||
| That's a good one. | ||
| Streaming strippers. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I was wondering what the word for that should be: streaming strippers. | ||
| That's a good one. | ||
| We're going to stick with that. | ||
| Streaming. | ||
| What did I say? | ||
| It online hookers, internet hookers. | ||
| Streaming strippers is a little, that's a better one. | ||
| We'll go with that one. | ||
| I like that. | ||
| From Chardonnay, can you bring on Professor Zhikin Jiang? | ||
| I'm not sure I'm familiar with him. | ||
| I'll have to check on that. | ||
| But we're open for suggestions for guests. | ||
| So we'll look into Professor Jiquin Jing. | ||
| Robert Bickerstaff, thank God Charlie Kirk is out of the way to protest Trump putting boots on the ground in Iran. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Charlie was against the regime change wars pretty loudly. | ||
| But see, here's the thing, folks. | ||
| And there's a couple of accounts on X that are dedicated to this. | ||
| The one has the SpongeBob profile picture. | ||
| It says, what is the name of the account? | ||
| It's like, didn't you say this or something like that? | ||
| There's another guy that's collecting receipts on this. | ||
| Folks, a lot of these right-wingers, a lot of these Trump supporters that are in favor of the war in Iran and are in favor of the war in Venezuela. | ||
| You can go back and find their posts. | ||
| Four years ago, they were against the war in Iran. | ||
| Four years ago, they were against the war in Venezuela. | ||
| While Trump was campaigning in 2024, they were all against regime change wars. | ||
| The internet's forever. | ||
| Their posts are up on the internet right now. | ||
| So all of them were against regime change in Iran, against regime change in Venezuela, against regime change wars. | ||
| They even said it publicly, posted it, and now all of a sudden they're all for it. | ||
| So there you go. | ||
| And yes, Charlie Kirk does not have the ear of the president or the administration to try to keep them in touch with the American people on this issue. | ||
| And I think a lot of people suspect maybe that's why he's not with us anymore, quite frankly. | ||
| From Chris Holly, Michael Wilds, the lawyer doing OnlyFans Visa and his father who started the 01B visas, Leanne Wilds, are of the tribe. | ||
| You're saying they're Jewish, is what you're saying. | ||
| Well, I don't know much about them, but I'm pretty sure the CEO or founder of Owner or OnlyFans, or at least one of them, is a top donor of APAC. | ||
| I'm pretty sure that OnlyFans is responsible for a lot of APAC money. | ||
| So maybe that's why, because they make a bunch of money off of this, and that's how lobbying works, so it wouldn't surprise me. | ||
| And by the way, the number one market for OnlyFans is the United States of America. | ||
| So if the lobbyists look at that and they say, hey, our internet strippers, our social media strippers, if they can't get these visas, they can't get access to the U.S. markets. | ||
| We're losing money. | ||
| So they lobby President Trump to open the visas for the internet strippers. | ||
| And then bing, bong, bang, there you go. | ||
| And if they're funding APAC, well, then that's really all you need to know, isn't it? | ||
| Robert Bickerstaff, why is the United States ambassador saying us in the Middle East? | ||
| Well, I think he answered your own question there, didn't you? | ||
| I think that one kind of answers itself. | ||
| Ken Rose with the thumbs up. | ||
| Thank you, Ken. | ||
| See to the truth. | ||
| With you, Patriot Owens, sad about Alex. | ||
| His dog don't hunt no more. | ||
| Thank you for the kind words. | ||
| Robert Bickerstaff, first time in a while, my Christmas party conversation sounded like the opposite of Alex Jones. | ||
| What a fall from grace. | ||
| Man, we went through, we went through all of 25 without having to deal with this stuff, but I guess now it's inevitable. | ||
| So there you go. | ||
| Ben Johnson, are you willing to encourage people to vote for Democrats in order to destroy the GOP? | ||
| No, no, I wouldn't say that. | ||
| The way you phrase it, definitely not. | ||
| I'm not willing to encourage people to vote for Democrats. | ||
| No, I don't see myself ever doing that. | ||
| I don't see myself ever personally voting for a Democrat. | ||
| I don't see myself telling other people to vote for a Democrat. | ||
| Now, you know, I never say never, right? | ||
| You don't like to deal in absolutes in politics. | ||
| At least if you do, it's extremely rare. | ||
| But I had a similar question Saturday morning. | ||
| And what I said was, I don't think I could ever vote for a Democrat. | ||
| And I don't think I could ever encourage anybody else to vote for a Democrat. | ||
| But I do think this could be the first time where I myself decide to not vote in protest or maybe encourage others to not vote and protest. | ||
| But, you know, my, my, I don't know. | ||
| I can't say my stance has changed yet. | ||
| I wouldn't say it's changed yet. | ||
| My stance has always been you should vote. | ||
| You should vote because I think part of the psychological operation is to make it so that you don't vote because if you don't vote, then they'll just take away your vote. | ||
| So we still have a right to vote and we should execute that right. | ||
| We don't want that muscle to atrophy. | ||
| And there's a lot of countries around the world where they don't have the right to vote. | ||
| And you can respond to that and say, well, our vote doesn't count and both sides are controlled and it's all rigged. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Hey, you know what? | ||
| Fair pushback. | ||
| That's fine. | ||
| I'll hear it. | ||
| I'm not going to fight you on it. | ||
| But I still think you have to exercise your right to vote. | ||
| I think it's important. | ||
| Plus, you do have a voting record. | ||
| And if you do decide you ever want to get involved in politics, they're going to look at your voting record. | ||
| And that will kind of determine what kind of impact or access that you get. | ||
| So there is a practical reason to vote. | ||
| But no, I would say, I would say right now, I don't feel motivated to vote for anybody. | ||
| I would say right now, I mean, you could obviously still argue that the Republicans are better than Democrats. | ||
| You could argue that if it's a better of two evils, then, you know, go out and vote Republican. | ||
| And maybe that's true. | ||
| When you get issue items, that's really what's important to vote for. | ||
| We just blocked here in Austin, Texas, another increase of our property taxes. | ||
| So that was nice. | ||
| So I don't think, again, we'll see. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| Right now, I still say you should vote. | ||
| You can vote for whoever you want. | ||
| I'm not going to tell you to vote for a Democrat. | ||
| It's hard for me to tell anybody to vote for a Republican right now. | ||
| You got to make up your own mind. | ||
| But I will say right now, this could be the first election cycle where I'm considering of not voting out of protest. | ||
| Now, you think bigger picture here, and you have to say, what are the consequences of letting the Democrats get back in power? | ||
| What are the consequences of that? | ||
| And are they much worse than if the Republicans stay in power? | ||
| Do we look at it and say, we have to reform the GOP? | ||
| We have to remake the Republican Party in our image. | ||
| And if we don't, then it's worthless anyway. | ||
| These are the things we're going to have to look at. | ||
| And you're going to have to prioritize yourself. | ||
| But to me, it's pretty obvious what's going to happen in the midterms. | ||
| The Democrats are going to run on, well, they're going to run against bad foreign policy. | ||
| They're going to run against the unpopular foreign policy of every administration, by the way. | ||
| But it'll probably be specifically directed at Israel this midterm. | ||
| And then the Republicans are going to try to convince you that somehow voting for them means you're going to get all these things that you want, even though we just got through two years of giving the Republicans the House, the Senate, and the White House, and they did virtually nothing for us and everything for the foreign interests and the special interests. | ||
| So that's kind of the rock in the hard place. | ||
| It's like, is it worth crushing the current GOP establishment again? | ||
| It's like we thought we did that in 2016 with Trump, but okay. | ||
| Is it worth crushing the GOP establishment again and letting the Democrats get power for maybe four years? | ||
| And then what do they do with it? | ||
| Or do we have to just continue to keep Republicans in there even though they stab us in the back because maybe we won't have a massive invasion or massive tax increases? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| We'll have to wait and see with that. | ||
| We'll have to wait and see. | ||
| One of 1K. | ||
| If you're a younger journalist in a smaller developed state, what's a word of advice besides pattern recognition? | ||
| You know, I don't really understand the question. | ||
| So I would just give you the same advice that I've given younger people in this field forever, which is find a void and fill it. | ||
| Find a void and fill it. | ||
| Find a void and fill it. | ||
| Find a way to differentiate yourself from the rest. | ||
| But the truth is, you have to pound the pavement. | ||
| You have to pound it forever. | ||
| And for years, even you might barely see any movement. | ||
| For years, you might barely see any return. | ||
| And you're going to have to stick it out. | ||
| You're going to have to stick it out. | ||
| And you're going to have to decide that you're doing it because you love your country or you love God or you love your family or you have a major concern with a certain issue or something like that. | ||
| If you're trying to get into this business for money or for fame, then just get out. | ||
| Just get out. | ||
| Unless you want to sell out, because you can always sell out. | ||
| You can always sell out and get rich and famous and get invited on Fox News and get invited into Congress and everything else. | ||
| You can always do that. | ||
| But no, if you want to be a true grassroots journalist, if you want to be a truth teller, if you want to stand strong against the establishment, then get ready for a long time of almost no results. | ||
| And you just have to keep pounding the pavement. | ||
| You have to never give up. | ||
| And eventually you'll get your break. | ||
| Eventually you'll get that lightning bolt to strike. | ||
| Eventually you'll get that viral video. | ||
| And then what you do with that is up to you. | ||
| But that's what it takes. | ||
| You basically just have to take a million shots and just accept you're not going to be rich or famous. | ||
| And when you do it for the right reasons, it'll be okay. | ||
| It'll be okay. | ||
| Coach Sarah would love to hear you talk with Myron Gaines, Candace, Tucker, Ian Carroll, et cetera. | ||
| You all respect debate enough to not force agreement and talk facts. | ||
| I did talk with Myron a couple weeks ago. | ||
| I could easily get in touch with Ian Carroll. | ||
| I could probably get in touch with Tucker. | ||
| I don't have a direct line of communication, but I know his producers. | ||
| I know some of his family. | ||
| I maybe could get in touch with Candace. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| You know, I said this before, though. | ||
| You know, I, again, it's not that I have an issue with anybody or any one of those people. | ||
| And I don't mind disagreeing with people at all, actually. | ||
| I like it. | ||
| But what I've learned throughout my experience in the media here, the political media is, and again, it's not that it's not that I have any problem talking to them or bringing them on. | ||
| It's all good. | ||
| But it's just like, what I've learned is if you're tuning into this show, and this is how I want it, if you're tuning into this show, then you want to hear me. | ||
| You want to hear Owen Schroer. | ||
| You want to hear my opinion. | ||
| Or you want to talk to me directly with a super chat or a phone call. | ||
| Now, there are times to do interviews and there are times to do collabs and there are spaces and we will do that. | ||
| But to me, it's like if you're tuning into this show, you want to hear me. | ||
| And I, and I value that. | ||
| I respect that. | ||
| I appreciate that. | ||
| And so I'm not going to try to turn this show into somebody else's opinions all the time. | ||
| You're tuning in to hear my opinions and get news coverage from me. | ||
| And the other thing I've learned too, and this is where it's like, you see this maybe with some of the personalities you just addressed. | ||
| There's this weird thing in political media where it's like, if you talk to somebody once, all of a sudden, all of their baggage gets put at your foot, your foots, your feet. | ||
| And it's just like, what? | ||
| It's like, why is that? | ||
| And then it becomes this game of like, you have to defend them or defend yourself. | ||
| And it's like, what? | ||
| I just talked to somebody. | ||
| I just did an interview here. | ||
| I don't have to defend them. | ||
| I don't have to explain why they did this or said that. | ||
| I did an interview. | ||
| I talked to them about this. | ||
| And if you like it, you don't, whatever. | ||
| But it's like, it's this weird thing that I only see in political media. | ||
| It's like, oh, you brought this person on and this person said this one time and this person did that one time. | ||
| And I'm like, what does that have to do with me? | ||
| So it's this weird thing where it's like you talk to somebody and all of a sudden it's all their baggage is put at your feet. | ||
| So it gets a little annoying. | ||
| It's a bit of a turnoff. | ||
| But I don't mind talking to people. | ||
| I talk to people all the time. | ||
| I talk to people behind the scenes more than anything. | ||
| So we'll have some interviews here and there. | ||
| We did have fishback last week. | ||
| He's supposed to come on tomorrow. | ||
| Hopefully it works this time. | ||
| Hardy Bronson. | ||
| You were recommended two weeks ago by the Algo Vid. | ||
| You decimated the woke right vet, unable to call you on one lie. | ||
| My brother, let me tell you something about that. | ||
| Owen Rep is a breath of fresh air. | ||
| Keep on, keep on. | ||
| No sugarcoating necessary here, just facts. | ||
| Combat vet myself, commie fornia. | ||
| Thank you for that. | ||
| Yeah, why don't we go after the commies in California? | ||
| Why don't we raid them? | ||
| Why don't we raid Tim Walz with the military? | ||
| I'd prefer to see that. | ||
| You know, that's amazing from Hardy Bronson here. | ||
| It's so funny because now for people that have been following me for, you know, I've been doing political media since 2013. | ||
| I've been doing political news, political videos, media since 2013. | ||
| Obviously, was independent for a while, worked with Infowars for 10 years. | ||
| But it's funny because this kind of goes two ways to Hardy Bronson, who says he's just now finding me for the first time. | ||
| Hey, glad you're here, man. | ||
| Hope you stick around. | ||
| And people say, well, why aren't you more popular? | ||
| Why don't you have more followers? | ||
| I was nuked off the internet in 2018, folks. | ||
| You have to remember, I was there in the first wave of censorship. | ||
| They took all my social media from me. | ||
| And it wasn't till Elon Musk allowed me back on X that everything started to open up again. | ||
| And then Rumble has a nice video platform. | ||
| And now YouTube has let me back on. | ||
| Owen Report on YouTube. | ||
| But I think the YouTube thing was probably more because I was associated with InfoWars and Alex than anything else because I never had any strikes on YouTube. | ||
| So I think that was a separate issue. | ||
| And I'm not even going to talk about that again, quite frankly. | ||
| But so it's a lot of people like you that see and hear me for the first time. | ||
| And they're like, wow, where has this been all my life? | ||
| Well, I've been censored. | ||
| I've been one of the most censored men in political media since 2018. | ||
| So you're kind of dealing with that. | ||
| But now that I'm back allowed on these platforms, you can find me again and we're doing good. | ||
| We're doing good numbers. | ||
| The other thing that's funny, and this is where I think you're talking about the guest, I'm assuming Green Beret nap time. | ||
| But by the way, if you like that, my brother, I've been doing this for 10 years. | ||
| I've been doing this for 10 years. | ||
| In fact, I'm not even going to, I'm going to, I'm going to tell you this. | ||
| I'm going to, we're going to go ahead and do something. | ||
| I'm going to go ahead and make, I'm going to make this happen now. | ||
| Because we've been debating, me and producer DMT, we've been debating. | ||
| And actually, I think maybe he's kind of maybe fighting me on this, but I think it might break. | ||
| We might break. | ||
| We might break this now. | ||
| I've been debating putting all of my old content on the YouTube channel because you're going to watch my old content and you're going to be like, holy smokes. | ||
| Where has this guy been? | ||
| It's been banned. | ||
| It's been banned off the internet. | ||
| It's been gone. | ||
| Just gone, wiped out, nuked. | ||
| So we've been thinking about re-uploading all of that, which is already out there. | ||
| So we're not violating anything. | ||
| I want to be clear. | ||
| I'm not violating any policies or anything like that. | ||
| It's all out there. | ||
| I'm just not allowed to share it. | ||
| So I think we may re-upload a lot of that stuff. | ||
| And you'll get a real kick out of some of the stuff I've been doing for the last almost 15 years now. | ||
| But the other side of that is, you know, I have the Green Beret nap time guy on. | ||
| And I think that these people that don't really know who I am and all they can do is look at my X account that just got reestablished in September of 23, I believe. | ||
| So they don't really understand. | ||
| They think I'm some sort of a novice. | ||
| They think I'm some sort of like, I don't know. | ||
| I don't even know, but they don't realize that I've been in this game for almost 15 years. | ||
| They don't realize that I'm actually a trained professional. | ||
| I'm not just an influencer. | ||
| I didn't just pop up and get popular. | ||
| I come from media. | ||
| I have a media background. | ||
| And so they kind of just think, oh, I'm just some lightweight and they'll be able to get a rise out of me and defeat me. | ||
| And they just have no idea who they're dealing with. | ||
| And so, you know, that Green Beret nap time guy, he probably thought he was going to have the edge on me. | ||
| He probably didn't understand who I was. | ||
| And he learned pretty quick, though, didn't he? | ||
| I'd say he learned that one pretty quick. | ||
| That's how it's been, my brother. | ||
| That's how it's been. | ||
| Guy Guillou, thank you for the super chat. | ||
| No comment. | ||
| Just wanted to send me a super chat. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So there we go. | ||
| Let's do phones. | ||
| Let's do phones for the last 20 minutes of today's show. | ||
| Man, I love you guys. | ||
| Can I just say I love you guys? | ||
| Love you guys in the chat. | ||
| Thank you for following on Rumble. | ||
| Thank you for following on X. Thank you for following on YouTube. | ||
| Don't forget we have the audio only transmissions. | ||
| They get uploaded every day after the live show. | ||
| iTunes, iHeartRadio, and Spotify. | ||
| If you just want to listen, listen in your car, listen at the gym, whatever, just go to one of those three platforms and you can find the Owen report there as well. | ||
| So there you go. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I just love you guys. | ||
| We just have such a great time. | ||
| It's just so good to be with you guys again. | ||
| Okay, here we go. | ||
| Phone lines open. | ||
| 747-200-5560. | ||
| 747-25560. | ||
| Remember, guys, I pick up. | ||
| You're on the air. | ||
| I ask you your name. | ||
| I ask you where you're from, but you're on the air. | ||
| And just in case you're trying to call in, folks, it is really hard to call into this show. | ||
| It is really hard to get through. | ||
| When you hear somebody hang up, that means a line is open. | ||
| That's your opportunity to call. | ||
| Of course, there's a little bit of a delay there, so it's not a perfect practice. | ||
| But if you're trying to call in and you keep getting busy, signal busy symbol, that's just because the lines are filled. | ||
| It's a very hard show to get in. | ||
| I'm sorry for that. | ||
| That's just how it is. | ||
| I run this whole thing myself. | ||
| And so when you're running phone lines yourself, there's really only so much you can do. | ||
| But don't give up. | ||
| We try to take as many calls as possible. | ||
| And if you really want to get in, eventually we will get your call. | ||
| So first caller of the show. | ||
| What's your name? | ||
| Where are you from? | ||

This is Albert from Pennsylvania. | |
| All right. | ||
| What do you got, Fake Albert? | ||

|
All right, real quick. | |
| Just wanted to let you know that I like the content so far, but do you ever plan on going a little bit more vertical with your direction? | ||
| Because a lot of the talk lately, I'm not, this isn't honest critique. | ||
| It's not like a big, I love your content on, but can you go a little bit more vertical with the talking points and just more solution-oriented talking points? | ||
| I just feel that things are getting too like horizontal and too circular and we're getting too lost in the weeds. | ||
| Give me an example. | ||
| Give me an example. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, we know our government is corrupt and we know all the Israel and all this other stuff like that, but it's redundant. | |
| So what are the possible viral solutions to actually getting these situations in our generation specifically? | ||
| I don't really have any hope for, you know, the boomers and all these other older generations, but for our generation, how do we actually turn the tides to where we can actually have a place that's for us and that meets our needs and that actually. | ||
| So let me respond to that. | ||
| I think that I could say it's a fair criticism. | ||
| You say, well, you don't offer any solutions. | ||
| I disagree with that notion. | ||
| I disagree with that notion. | ||
| I don't think this is like, like, we're not doing a problem reaction solution type of show. | ||
| This is a news show. | ||
| I cover news and I do political play-by-play and color commentary. | ||
| But I think, you know, there's solutions mixed in with it. | ||
| But generally speaking, my response here is I want informed people. | ||
| I want people to be as informed as possible. | ||
| I want them to be as healthy as possible. | ||
| I want there to be an upward synchronization between information, health, and vision so that people can make better decisions, understand the world that they live in better, and improve themselves and then make better decisions politically, locally, whatever with their lives. | ||
| So I get what you're saying. | ||
| I hear that a lot. | ||
| Oh, it's just a bunch of complaining, all this stuff. | ||
| Well, look, I just cover news. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I cover news. | ||
| I do political play-by-play. | ||
| I call it as I see it. | ||
| And I just want people to be informed. | ||
| I understand that most people out there, they don't have all this time during the day to read news and keep politically informed and updated on things. | ||
| I understand that. | ||
| So if you're going to spend three hours with me, if you're going to spend three hours a day, let's say you have three hours a day to listen to political news, consume political news, whatever. | ||
| I want your three hours of investment here to be as informative, maybe inspirational, whatever it is, as possible. | ||
| So that's my solution. | ||
| I was once ignorant. | ||
| I was once blind. | ||
| I once trusted the media. | ||
| I once trusted our government. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| That was on me. | ||
| I was wrong, but I didn't know that there was other information out there. | ||
| I didn't have anybody explaining to me. | ||
| So I try to fill that void. | ||
| So that's the void I try to fill. | ||
| I don't want people to be misinformed. | ||
| I don't want people to be disinformed. | ||
| I want people to be informed. | ||
| And I understand that not everybody is like me and they can't dedicate their life to just following news and current events all day long like I do. | ||
| So that's what I do. | ||
| And then I give you three hours a day of that coverage and that breakdown the best that I can. | ||
| So I understand what you're saying, but I don't think the premise is Entirely fair to say that, oh, there are no solutions or that there's no vertical movement here. | ||
| I think we have seen vertical movement, actually. | ||
| I think we have seen success stories. | ||
| And whether you think it's good or not, like from as a young conservative Gui Wee Lou, as a young conservative, I've done with MAGA Republicans and are going to lose young conservatives that just won't vote. | ||
| So it's like, I do a pretty good job of convincing people to see the things the way I see them. | ||
| I bring the evidence. | ||
| I bring the facts. | ||
| I bring the opinion. | ||
| I bring the context. | ||
| And then you make up your mind. | ||
| So I guess if you want to say that's not a solution, then fine. | ||
| But hey, you're still here. | ||
| You still pick up that phone and hit speed dial. | ||
| So come on now. | ||
| Next caller, what's your name where you're from? | ||
| Oh, and Don, Orange County. | ||
| Yes, I was hitting speed dial. | ||
| All right, Don. | ||
| Yeah, go ahead, Don. | ||
| Hey, I want to do a quick plug for you real quick, and then I want to share a post with you that I just put on Facebook to let you know what my mindset is. | ||
| The plug I want to do for you is: over the weekend, I was up late watching YouTube and drinking some blackout smooth coffee. | ||
| Yes, sir. | ||
| And I got that same mug you have right there. | ||
| You guys, the unofficial official mug of the Owen report, blackoutcoffee.com/slash Owen. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| So I'm thinking to myself, I said, I'm actually, I actually came across the very first inaugural blackout smooth Twilight YouTube channel of Owen, you know, because that's what I was up to and drinking coffee later night, watching Harley videos. | ||
| But now the post I want to share with you, let's see where you see how I want to enter your opinion on this one. | ||
| My post is, my Venezuelan neighbor lives in a huge mansion and drives a badass agotti and has a few really bitching Harleys. | ||
| I was thinking, damn, I'm going to be, I'm okay, I'm doing fine, but I could be doing a whole lot better that maybe I need a little economic boom in my life. | ||
| He doesn't know it yet, but I'm fixing to raid his house tonight and kick him and his wife out of their damn house. | ||
| He wouldn't let me use his Bugatti. | ||
| So I just said, so I just said, how about I just take his shit and kick him out? | ||
| So tonight I'm launching a covert operation. | ||
| Maybe if I do it around dinner time, I can confiscate their event as well as meal as well. | ||
| I'm just going to liberate the fuck out of them of all their shit. | ||
| And I'm expecting a huge thank you from him and his wife. | ||
| Follow me for more financial tips for 2026. | ||
| Well, that's an extreme. | ||
| Yeah, I'd say that's a rather extreme parallel. | ||
| So I don't really know if that's the best. | ||
| I understand the case that's trying to be made. | ||
| And I'm right there along for the ride. | ||
| But I think that that's probably not the best parallel to use. | ||
| So, but you know what? | ||
| I would say my takeaway from that is that people see through the double standards. | ||
| They see through the nonsense. | ||
| They see through the hypocrisy. | ||
| They see through the say one thing and do the other. | ||
| And they're just finding different ways of expressing their frustration with that. | ||
| But there's no shortage of frustration. | ||
| So that's my takeaway. | ||
| Next caller, what's your name where you're from? | ||
|

Hey, Owen, it's Sarah from Florida again. | |
| You said Sarah, Sarah in Florida. | ||
| Yeah, Sarah from Florida again. | ||
| I talked to you a couple of days ago. | ||
| I wanted to get your take on what are our rights to this Venezuelan oil? | ||
| I'm starting to hear a lot of talk about it, and I kind of wanted to hear, you know, this, is this just a new shiny object? | ||
| Is this a new distraction? | ||
| But I'm hearing the Venezuelan oil is owed to us. | ||
| And I'm hearing that on the right like crazy. | ||
| What's your take on it? | ||
| Well, I think that's mostly just a talking point to win favor and support for basically stealing all the oil. | ||
| Now, the claim that's going to be made, and this claim has been made before, it's nothing new. | ||
| But the claim that's going to be made is that these oil companies had a deal to get access to that Venezuelan oil. | ||
| And basically, Maduro has shut them out. | ||
| Basically, Venezuela has shut them out. | ||
| Now, this is one of those issues where basically people are just going to choose sides. | ||
| Some people are going to say it's not our oil. | ||
| It's Venezuela's oil. | ||
| Some people are going to say it's the oil company's oil. | ||
| They had a deal. | ||
| Some people are going to say, well, why don't we just go take it? | ||
| Because we're Americans and we just do this stuff. | ||
| So I think you're going to get a mixed bag on that. | ||
| I would say, I would put it like this. | ||
| In my opinion, even if somebody would say, and a court would say, because ultimately this is where it's going to go, if they're going to say, okay, the oil companies had a deal and they have rights to drill or they have rights to this oil or that oil and bring it into the market. | ||
| Well, they're going to make that pitch. | ||
| Then I think the question really is: so is it our military's job then to secure the oil? | ||
| So I think that that is ultimately where this conversation goes. | ||
| I would say that if they can, they will make the case that they have a right to this oil in Venezuela. | ||
| And then the question really is, so does that mean that our military works for the oil companies? | ||
| Or should the oil companies, should the oil companies be responsible for doing it themselves? | ||
| Should they have to hire mercenaries? | ||
| Should they have to try to find a way in a court system to get the oil that they claim to have the rights to? | ||
| So I would just say, do you believe, let's say all things true, the oil companies have the rights. | ||
| So do you believe the U.S. military works for the oil companies to get that oil? | ||
| And people will even say that there's nuance to that because everybody benefits. | ||
| But really, I think that that's the bottom line here: is do you think that the U.S. military works for the oil companies? | ||
|

|
It's a war. | |
| Well, we'll see. | ||
| We'll see if this turns into a war. | ||
| But I would say if somebody came into our country and kidnapped our president, we'd probably consider that an act of war, too. | ||
| So, but we'll see. | ||
| Hasn't hasn't escalated yet. | ||
| Hasn't reached our shores yet. | ||
| And we hope it doesn't. | ||
| Next caller, what's your name? | ||
| Where are you from? | ||
| Owl Killer, call from Virginia. | ||
| Owl Killer, go ahead. | ||
| Hey, so I just want to touch real quick on what I, when I called in last week, when I was talking about an authoritarian bend on the right, what I was speaking of, it's basically going, I'm talking about like a counter to the left. | ||
| Because you saw when Mamdami got sworn in, he said, we're going for collectivism over rugged individualism. | ||
| And all you heard was chance of tax the rich, tax the rich, tax the rich. | ||
| For the first time in my lifetime, the right is saying also tax the rich. | ||
| But it's in the same sense. | ||
| They also want to silence the left in the sense that whoever gets it, it's like the left has already made this leapfrog where they're like, we're going full-blown communist and we're going to go after, we're going to go, and basically we're going to get whoever stole basically stole all the loot in the country. | ||
| And I see it arising on the right as well in the sense that people are like, hey, you guys have not like, for example, like, look at all you guys in the alternative media struggling to stay afloat, stay on the air. | ||
| Where's our George Soros that's keeping you guys funded? | ||
| All the billionaires on the right. | ||
| Is anybody doing anything for you guys? | ||
| So I see that rise. | ||
| I see an authoritarian bend on the right coming. | ||
| And I don't think people are ready for what could come about because that's in the event of like an economic collapse where both sides are going to blame each other and whoever gets in power is going to basically enslave the other side. | ||
| As far as the Maduro thing, dude, that was pretty phenomenal for nobody to get killed and for that thing to take place as fast as it did. | ||
| I kind of do see a trade-off where we're giving up on Ukraine. | ||
| We're pretty much going to let China take Taiwan and this hemisphere is ours. | ||
| I see like a tripolar world being set up. | ||
| And I think that is actually inevitable. | ||
| The rules-based international order people want to refer to that's over. | ||
| And I think this is more of a more logical step and something that's actually enforceable where we take care of our hemisphere. | ||
| Russia takes care of Europe and themselves, and China takes care of the East. | ||
| Outside of a conflict, I don't see any other possible outcome. | ||
| And hopefully it can be negotiated between all three powers because in all honesty, we are three separate powers. | ||
| And your boy Patrick Byrne again was just on Alex today saying how Maduro was rescued by Trump and was being held hostage by Cuban military people. | ||
| And Maduro is going to spoil all the votes on the 2020 election. | ||
| That's all I got to say. | ||
| This is going to be interesting. | ||
| I'll try to unpack all of that. | ||
| Look, I like Patrick. | ||
| I've met him a couple times and I think he's a good person. | ||
| I don't know, you know, I'm not going to pretend like I know about where he's getting his intel. | ||
| I could guess. | ||
| I will say this. | ||
| Intelligence agencies use people in the media to either push outright propaganda, outright fake information, or sometimes good information, good propaganda. | ||
| So that's how this stuff goes. | ||
| And I really don't even want to go too much into the weeds of that, but you can look at, you know, watch what happens with the Minnesota-Somali story. | ||
| That was an intelligence, that was an intelligence operation. | ||
| And I would say that Patrick is probably getting this information from intelligence sources. | ||
| And then it's whether or not they're right or if he can trust them, that's up to him. | ||
| But again, I can only go off of what I have. | ||
| And I have no evidence of any of that being true. | ||
| And I wouldn't even say there's any circumstantial evidence of any of that being true. | ||
| The only circumstantial evidence that I would point to is that the capturing was so successful that there was no resistance because they already cut a deal. | ||
| So I am of the belief that they cut a deal based off the circumstantial evidence of little to no resistance. | ||
| Maduro seems to have a bag packed with a bunch of different outfits. | ||
| He's giving thumbs up. | ||
| He's smiling. | ||
| But as far as this having anything to do with the stolen election, I have no real evidence of that. | ||
| If that comes to fruition, we'll report on it. | ||
| But again, I sit here and I say, if this is about the stolen election, then why aren't we going after the states that broke their own constitution with mail-in ballots and late votes and double counting and triple counting ballots? | ||
| I mean, we already had these cases. | ||
| They already came out. | ||
| So I don't understand what, you know, what the Maduro angle there is. | ||
| So I don't know. | ||
| That one doesn't make sense to me. | ||
| But I could see there being a deal made between Trump and Maduro. | ||
| What the nature of the deal is, I don't know. | ||
| As far as the authoritarian right rising, yeah, I do hear what you're saying on that. | ||
| It's kind of an inevitable thing, especially if you can't get any results politically. | ||
| So maybe you're seeing a little bit of that. | ||
| And then as far as the, you know, I see that, oh, you know, China takes Taiwan and Russia takes Ukraine. | ||
| America takes the Western hemisphere. | ||
| You know, it makes sense on paper. | ||
| It sounds good on paper. | ||
| It sounds like the puzzle piece is falling into place. | ||
| I see a lot of people saying that, theorizing that. | ||
| From my experience, these things never work like that. | ||
| From my experience, these things never fall into place like that. | ||
| So that's why I'm not really too gung-ho about that theory right now. | ||
| It makes sense on paper. | ||
| Like I said, it makes sense. | ||
| The pieces all fit. | ||
| And you can say, okay. | ||
| But I'm not so sure. | ||
| Two reasons. | ||
| One, I'm not so sure Trump can trust these world leaders, in all honesty. | ||
| And I think a lot of these world leaders have figured out how to manipulate Trump, quite frankly. | ||
| Now, we'll see. | ||
| Again, this is all a lot. | ||
| We're going to have to wait and see how this all shakes out. | ||
| But I think a lot of them realized, oh, all you got to do is gleam Trump and praise him and tell him he's the best of all time and his hair is great. | ||
| And oh my gosh, he's the greatest. | ||
| And then he just, he melts in your arms. | ||
| So they realize, you know, the path to Trump is not to resist Trump. | ||
| The path to Trump is to ingratiate Trump. | ||
| So I'm not sure if I trust any of these leaders. | ||
| But I also don't think that strategically, and I don't think, I think Trump realizes this. | ||
| I don't think strategically we can let China have Taiwan right now. | ||
| We don't have the production capacity to replace Taiwan right now. | ||
| We just don't have it. | ||
| And this is part of how the war, the trade war with China has failed. | ||
| And this effort to bring in the tariffs and bring manufacturing back has virtually been a nothing, guys. | ||
| It's been a nothing. | ||
| So I don't think we can sacrifice Taiwan right now. | ||
| And as far as Russia getting Ukraine is concerned, these are deals that Trump already tried to work out with Ukraine and it hasn't worked. | ||
| And so the longer this deal goes and these things don't working, the less I think Russia is going to be inclined to cut a deal. | ||
| I don't think Russia is going to be interested in cutting a deal with us. | ||
| So that means that Trump would be willing to sacrifice $300 billion that we spent on this Ukraine war. | ||
| And I'm not so sure he wants that. | ||
| So I don't know. | ||
| A lot of people connect these things. | ||
| The pieces all fall into place. | ||
| It just, it never works like that in politics. | ||
| And I'm just not so sure really it can work like that right now. | ||
| I just don't think so. | ||
| So no, I think this is Trump going in to get the oil. | ||
| I think this is Trump, since he can't win the trade war with China, trying to find a new way to win the trade war by getting oil access and trade routes established that he can control or America can control or American companies can control. | ||
| And I think at the larger picture, it's the special interests, mostly the special interests, but the foreign interest that are trying to get as much land and resources and energy as possible before we enter the AI world, the quantum computing world, before we dive into this stuff and what it means for civilization. | ||
| They're just aligning all of their assets and all of their resources in place before we go into this world so that they remain in power no matter what happens. | ||
| So that's kind of how I see all of that. | ||
| EW 6041, Mr. Schroyer, you offer the universal solution daily. | ||
| Deep state arrests. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| That is true. | ||
| The ultimate solution, you might say. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I think we're on the next caller. | ||
| Is this a next caller? | ||
| What's your name? | ||
| Where are you from? | ||

I just want to let I just yeah, go ahead. | |
| Yeah, I've been, you know, wanting to talk to you before and all this stuff and the other before, but on when it comes to everything that's going on, I have been using something to put names and corporations and everyone together. | ||
| I know what we're under. | ||
| I've got the info. | ||
| It's in my posts on YouTube under Rebel Studio 2, 1776. | ||
| All right, people can go check out Rebel Studio 2, 1776. | ||
| Thank you for the call. | ||
| All right, last call of the day. | ||
| What's your name? | ||
| Where you're from? | ||

Hey, I just wanted to ask what your opinion is on the Monroe Doctrine. | |
| I feel like I'm a Zoomer. | ||
| I'm not a Trump supporter, but I'm a big believer in it. | ||
| And I just wanted to see if you believe the Western Hemisphere is our domain. | ||
| Typically against foreign intervention, but I feel like in the Pacific and in the Caribbean and South Americas, we have our own jurisdiction over those areas. | ||
| I just wanted to see if there's any validity to that. | ||
| So let me, let me, I'm probably not going to give you the answer that you want, but I'll respond to it. | ||
| The Monroe Doctrine was U.S. foreign policy from the early 1800s. | ||
| And while you could say that the idea remains, and that's fair, I think that I described it earlier as manifest destiny. | ||
| I think more than anything, as manifest destiny. | ||
| But you can use the Monroe Doctrine if you want. | ||
| Either way, it's kind of the same idea. | ||
| It's like we're better than everybody else, and it's our destiny to free the world or to expand the American Empire or the Republic, whatever it is. | ||
| It's all kind of the same idea. | ||
| I think that people are getting way too, they're trying to be way too philosophical, intellectual, historical context with this stuff. | ||
| I don't really think it has anything to do with that. | ||
| I think this is just a war for oil. | ||
| I don't think it's some complicated thing. | ||
| I don't think there's some big political philosophy behind it. | ||
| Trump is not a romantic with this stuff. | ||
| Now, he might, Trump might like the Monroe doctrine. | ||
| He might, you know, I don't know if he's, he would say he's applying it here. | ||
| Trump is not a romantic of the Constitution. | ||
| Trump is, I don't think Trump romanticizes the Constitution or the Monroe Doctrine. | ||
| Now, he likes golden picture frames. | ||
| You know, he likes hanging portraits and good art and picture frames in the Oval Office, but he's no romantic of the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. | ||
| When do you hear him talking about that? | ||
| So I don't really think that's on his mind. | ||
| I think this is a war for oil. | ||
| This is a regime change war. | ||
| It's all about aligning the foreign and special interests before we go into the new world AI order. | ||
| And I just don't think it's that complicated. | ||
| I don't really think there's some grand political philosophy behind it. | ||
| I just don't see it that way. | ||
| Maybe, but Trump doesn't say that. | ||
| He doesn't romanticize it. | ||
| He doesn't pitch it that way. | ||
| I think it's all about trade. | ||
| I think it's all about business. | ||
| And that's the way I see it. | ||
| So anything else, brother? | ||

Well, if we want to put America first, shouldn't we have our own interest? | |
| Like regardless of Venezuela's own oil, shouldn't we have our own jurisdiction over these areas? | ||
| Otherwise, places like China, our own enemies will come in and take these over. | ||
| China was already taking the oil out of Venezuela and they weren't doing business with us. | ||
| So I feel like if they're not going to do business with us, we should have to intervene to so okay. | ||
| So let's say, so let's say, let's say we go along with that thought process, which, okay, I'm not pushing back on that. | ||
| My issue is I'm looking for logical consistency. | ||
| So if we're going to sit here, and this is why I get so frustrated, if we're going to sit here and talk about China and, oh, Chinese influence, or you hear now, Muslim Brotherhood influence, I'm sitting here, I'm saying, wait a second, the number one influence is Israel. | ||
| So it's like, so it's like, you know what I'm saying? | ||
| So I'm just like, how are we going to sit here and talk about, oh, all this foreign influence and we need to take control of all this stuff? | ||
| I can't even separate from the Middle East. | ||
| I can't even get the foreign lobby out of my life. | ||
| So, you know what I mean? | ||
| So I'm just looking for, it's like, I'm not disagreeing with the idea or the philosophy per se. | ||
| It's just, to me, it's not legitimate when I'm sitting here watching the Israeli lobby own my Congress and I'm going to sit here and say, I need to stop Chinese influence. | ||
| What am I talking about? | ||
| This tiny country over here owns my country. | ||
| So, you know what I mean? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Yeah, I agree with you. | ||
| I mean, I'm a huge fan. | ||
| I understand what you're saying. | ||
| I just don't think the two are mutually exclusive, right? | ||
| I think you can have, like, of course, Israel has a lot of influence, but we should try to combat the influence from China and other areas as well. | ||
| Well, that's fair. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's fair. | |
| I think that that's fair. | ||
| I think that that's fair. | ||
| And I tell you, you know, I always say it. | ||
| My big pet peeve is logical consistency. | ||
| So you're right. | ||
| You can say, hey, we can separate these two things. | ||
| And, you know, maybe we accept that one thing happens, but the other thing doesn't have to. | ||
| And so I'm fine with that. | ||
| I'm not pushing back on any of that. | ||
| But for me, my big pet peeve is logical inconsistency. | ||
| That's just my big pet peeve. | ||
| That's where I kind of generate a lot of my ideas is looking for logical consistency. | ||
| But I get what you're saying. | ||
| And, you know, you can even argue that some of these things will benefit the USA, even if we don't do these other things that prove it's logically inconsistent. | ||
| They could still benefit us. | ||
| So, but I just think we're too early. | ||
| We're too early in this process to really know what the outcome is going to be. | ||
| I just think it's too early to say. | ||
| So yeah, was the operation a success? | ||
| No doubt. | ||
| We didn't lose any equipment. | ||
| We didn't lose any lives. | ||
| That's total success. | ||
| It happened in, what, an hour or two? | ||
| So yeah, as far as that's concerned, total success. | ||
| But to say, oh, no new wars or it's, you know, let's just hope that's true. | ||
| Let's just wait and see and hope that that's true. | ||
