Owen Shroyer exposes the Trump administration's alleged corruption, citing a $200 billion war request and plans to unsanction 130 million barrels of Russian oil while allegedly orchestrating regime change in Iran. He argues that domestic crises like airport security are ignored due to this "traitorous" foreign policy, which he claims alienates allies like Japan and Saudi Arabia as they pivot to Chinese yuan. Shroyer condemns the administration's reliance on Israeli propaganda, digital ID overreach, and shifting right-wing politics toward anti-Semitism, concluding that these actions accelerate global economic collapse and erode American trust worldwide. [Automatically generated summary]
Ladies and gentlemen, it is Thursday, March 19th, 2026.
Here's what's coming up on the Owen Report today.
It's an absolutely loaded news day.
We got clips from all over the world addressing this war in Iran.
Yes, the Pentagon, it was confirmed today by Pete Hegzeth that the Pentagon wants $200 billion now.
So the cost of this war is likely already $30 billion.
Now they're asking for $200 billion more.
That doesn't sound like it's ending anytime soon.
That doesn't sound like you've eliminated the threat and won the war.
Sounds like the exact opposite.
And of course, congressional debate, any inquiries, we won't be having that.
No, we won't be having that.
Of course, you can't get airport security.
You can't get that.
You can't get deportations.
Just simply not possible.
You can't get secure elections.
Can't pass the SAVE Act.
We just can't get these things done.
But war in the Middle East, anytime, any place, no problem.
$200 billion for the war that you've already won?
Absolutely.
No questions asked.
Whatever you need.
I don't even know how else to qualify that, to quantify that other than just complete and utter corruption.
Complete and utter traitorous corruption from the one administration we thought wouldn't do it to us, which just makes it that worse.
So we do have all of the news.
Like I said, we got clips from all over the world in regards to this.
We got news from all over the world in regards to this.
And I mean, obviously, we all kind of live in our own political spheres, bubbles, what have you.
And then you can decide how wide of a perspective you want to have as far as your politics is concerned.
I think this is a fair statement to make.
I don't think that this is just the world that I live in.
I think this is a fair statement to make.
The three biggest conversations in American politics today are Israel's influence and our foreign policy, which you could tie into the war in Iran, but we'll separate the two.
So the war in Iran, Israel's influence on our foreign policy.
Really, these two things are the same, but these are the conversations.
And then, is MAGA dead?
Is MAGA dead?
These are the biggest conversations right now in American politics.
These are the conversations getting the most attention.
This is what everybody's talking about.
And isn't that the proof?
It's like, where's the argument here?
Isn't that the proof that this administration is an utter failure?
We're not talking about mass deportations.
We're not talking about deep state arrests.
We're not talking about Epstein arrests.
We're not talking about how great the economy is and gas prices are down and cost of living is down.
We're not talking about any of that stuff.
We're talking about is MAGA dead and what the hell is going on with our foreign policy?
That right there to me, that's the proof.
Case closed, this administration, at least at this point, maybe you think it gets better from here.
At this point, it's a disaster.
And you know what?
It's funny.
Well, we'll get to it in the show, but I wake up or I go to bed and I'm like, well, at least MAGA can't get any worse than this, right?
You go to bed, well, at least MAGA can't get any worse.
And then you wake up and it's worse.
It's worse.
Every damn day, MAGA gets worse and worse and worse.
Have you had to deal with this like I have, unfortunately?
Well, maybe you haven't had to deal with debit card theft or fraud.
Maybe you haven't had to deal with doxing.
These are some of the worst things that can happen to you when people get your private information.
But maybe you deal with phishing emails and spam phone calls, scammers trying to trick you.
You've probably dealt with some of that.
It's annoying.
It's the year 2026.

Criminals and hackers and frauds trying to get your private information on the internet.
But there's a solution for you at patriot-protect.com/slash Owen.

This is what it is.
So this is why I use Patriot Protect.
And this is why I suggest you do the same.
I think it's going to become one of those things where it's just a necessity.
It's just a necessity.

On the cutting edge of news and analysis, the Owen Report with Owen Schroyer.
I got a couple things I just need to get off my chest.
I need to just kind of clear the runway a little bit before we take off because I'm sitting here today.
Well, it's about noon.
I'm having my lunch, starting to begin my final aggregation phase.
What's going to make the final cut for the show?
What's not?
You know, what can I get in in three hours?
And I'm just sitting there and I'm just like, oh, my gosh, man.
I'm just like, oh, my gosh.
It's just, it's so obnoxious.
And like I said in the opener, I mean, it's kind of a cliche.
You know, you go to bed and then you wake up.
But I mean, you know, it's like you go through the day-to-day.
You're like, well, okay, at least it can't get any worse than this.
At least MAGA can't get any worse.
At least MAGA can't sink any further.
And then you wake up the next day and you, if you're like me, you wake up the next day, you immediately start your, you know, you're back into the news, you dive right in, and it's just like, oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
They did it.
They've done the unthinkable.
They've done the impossible.
MAGA has found a way to sink lower.
MAGA has found a way to get worse every single day.
It's unreal.
It's unreal.
And then I'm really getting ready for the show.
And I'm thinking to myself, what is the best way to handle it right now?
Because I know a lot of people are kind of going through the same mental process of trying to process all of this news, trying to process how we've been betrayed.
What the hell's going on?
Where do we go from here?
There's so much gaslighting.
There's so much propaganda.
I want to at least serve as some semblance of a guiding light, some semblance of sanity making sense of it all for you.
So I feel obligated to come on here and cover the stacks and stacks and stacks of news.
And we will do that.
And I'm thinking to myself, and maybe we end up doing it tomorrow.
But I'm like, you know, because nobody's doing this.
It's like, I need to just sit down here and do a call-in show and just say, go off.
Say the theme, the question, what grade do you give President Trump?
Or what do you think the status of MAGA is?
Something in that realm.
And just take calls for three hours.
And then this is why it's like, because I have to be off at six today.
I got an interview right after the show with the best damn roofer, who's a friend of mine.
I like him.
He's on the same page as us.
And, you know, I don't want to say no to guys that I have a relationship with like that.
So I said, yeah.
But it's one of those days where it's like, you know, I just should do a four-hour show and just take calls.
So maybe we'll do that tomorrow, just like a sound-off show, and just take dozens of calls and just maybe you love Trump, hate Trump, in between, whatever, and just do that type of a show.
And then I'm sitting here, it's like, okay, it's time to actually do it.
And maybe I've even said this before, but it's funny.
You live and you learn.
I remember I was a Michael Savage listener growing up.
And I remember about once a month, about once a month, Savage would go on his show and he'd start the show off like this.
And he'd just say, I can't do it today, guys.
I can't do the news.
I can't do the politics.
And as a consumer, I mean, I wouldn't get pissed.
I'd still listen.
But as a consumer, you know, I'd be like, oh, no, I want the news.
I want the politics.
That's the savage I want.
And then he'd end up telling stories or talking about food or movies or something like that.
But I really understand it now more than ever.
And I hadn't been doing this nearly as long as Michael Savage.
But it's just like, I just, I totally get it.
It's like, who wants to go to a brick wall and just bang their head against it every freaking day of the week?
It's not very, it's not very appealing.
And that's what the news is like now.
It's just like banging your head against a brick wall every day.
I'm just, like I said before, I'm not even as upset at Donald Trump.
Like, like to a certain degree, the issue isn't even Donald Trump.
We can talk about President Trump and the decisions he's making and the betrayals and the broken promises, or maybe you think things are good.
It's like, okay, he's the president.
No.
What's more disappointing to me now, and it's not even close, actually.
It's not even close.
What's more disappointing to me now was we thought that the American right had advanced so much more intellectually, philosophically, when it comes to politics and corruption and propaganda.
And now I see that MAGA is essentially the exact same thing as the left.
Intellectually, they are virtually the same.
Now, you could say, obviously, policy, okay, it's different.
Culture, okay, it's different.
Like the different boxes and sects and stuff.
It's like, yeah, obviously there's a difference between the left and the right.
But I mean, intellectually, there's really no difference at all.
Just the left wing falls for the left-wing propaganda.
The right wing falls for the right-wing propaganda.
There's really no difference.
You might get some tiny different results.
Like, what's the real big difference between right now and Biden?
Closed border.
It's really about it.
Economically, virtually the same.
Crime, it's a little down.
It's a little better, but it's not like we've changed the world here as far as crime is concerned.
The deep state, still fully in control.
The propaganda media may be worse, but this time it's just all on the right.
That's what really hurts more than anything.
We expect our politicians to lie to us.
We expect our politicians to be dishonest, be corrupt.
We expect that.
Oh, okay.
Oh, another lying politician.
Oh, maybe it hurts a little bit.
You cared about this one more than the last, but all right.
No, it's the people.
It's the people that are going through this that turned out to be such frauds.
That's what hurts the most.
That, that to me is what the most depressing thing is.
And when you get these stories like with Joe Kent or Tucker Carlson, it just, it really just exposes that.
It just adds volume to that.
And obviously, I deal with it too.
But it's like, what happened to you guys?
Okay, another politician lied to us, whatever.
What happened to you guys?
Since when do you guys like propaganda?
Since when do you guys like being lied to?
Since when do you guys carry water for corruption in Washington, D.C.?
Like, what is that?
I mean, it's so bad, folks.
Can you even, can you even encapsulate it?
I've got a couple of things here that maybe give us an idea, but this is how bad it is.
They're sharing the poll of 100% of MAGA supports Donald Trump.
Like, they're actually sharing that.
They're celebrating this.
They're like, look at this, 100% of MAGA.
See, we're winning.
Everything's so great.
What?
Who are you?
Who are you talking to?
What world do you live in?
This is how insane it is.
So they'll share that post and they'll say, look, 100% of MAGA supports Trump.
And then their next post is complaining about all the people that left MAGA.
Like, what is wrong with them?
And it sucks for me because my pet peeve, and I've got some examples of this.
I don't know if we'll have the time today, but I've got some examples of this.
My pet peeve is that I guess I really think or I really believe, or I just, it's like an itch.
I have to scratch.
I don't like people that are misinformed.
I just don't.
You can have a different opinion than me.
That's fine.
I expect people to have different opinions.
But like, we should at least be in the same realm of what is real and what is not.
We should at least be closer upon what is fact and what is fiction.
And so I see these attacks against me today, and I usually don't reply to these on X, but I, you know, I decided I feel bad for these people.
I've got people coming out saying, oh, you know, you were a never-Trumper.
You didn't start supporting Trump till 2018.
It's like, what world do you live in?
I was one of the first people in media when Trump came down the golden escalator supporting Trump.
That was me.
I was against the neocons.
I was going viral before 80% of these people ever supported Trump.
They say, oh, people share videos of some of my old arrests.
And they say, look, Owen, he got arrested for violating a plea deal.
And it's like, dude, I didn't even have a plea deal.
This was before January 6th.
And that case got tossed by the judge.
Let's just, I can't, I can't deal with it.
I can't deal with it.
MAGA is so ignorant now.
They're so ignorant.
And they're just so willing to go along with propaganda.
I can't get it.
I don't understand what happened to them.
Trump, okay, corrupt politician.
What's new?
But you guys, you guys, what happened to you?
Why do you all of a sudden fall for lies?
Why do you all of a sudden fall for propaganda?
Why are you all of a sudden attacking right-wingers like the left did?
I get more hate from the right now.
I don't get anything from the left.
Nothing.
It's all right.
It's all right-wing hatred.
It's all right-wing disgust.
It's all right-wing propaganda, brainwashing, indoctrination.
What happened to you?
So that's all.
And we could do these games for days, but we'll read this one.
I mean, it just puts it into words from Dirachton.
Who is Daroctinus?
Nobody knows.
Some random on X named Dirachton is better than 90% of MAGA now.
It's like, oh, 100% of MAGA supports Trump.
So let me explain how this line of questioning goes.
Do you want to know how you reach that 100% number?
You either completely make it up or it goes like this.
Hi, sir.
Do you support Trump?
Yes.
Okay, one following question.
Do you support Trump?
Yes.
Well, there it is.
100% of people support Trump.
So the first question is: do you support Trump?
If the answer is yes, then they ask you the follow-up question of do you support Trump?
If the answer is no, they don't ask you the follow-up question, and that's how they get the 100% number.
And these people are sharing this communist-style propaganda as if it's real.
And they don't even blink.
They don't even think.
The president of the United States is now simultaneously claiming that he has won the war, is currently winning the war, needs help to win the war, and needs help to win the war and needs no help to win the war.
So he needs help to win the war.
He doesn't need help to win the war.
He's already won the war, but he's currently winning the war.
And the war is to destroy the nuclear program that he claimed to have already destroyed last year.
And by the way, it's not a war.
This is the insanity.
This is the absolute insanity of right-wing politics today.
It's unreal.
And then, I mean, I've got some of this, but we'll just say it right now before we get into these news stories.
Again, you want to have opinion differences than me?
That's fine.
You want to have policy differences than me?
That's fine.
But let's just live in reality together.
Can we?
Can we at least live in reality?
And it's like, we're going to sit here and pretend.
You're going to pretend like Israel doesn't have more say in our foreign policy than Americans do.
Come on, man.
Like, I just, I can't deal with you anymore.
You're not a serious person.
You don't do serious research.
You don't do serious commentary.
You don't know basic geopolitics.
You don't know the first thing about foreign policy.
You're a joke.
I don't, I can't help you.
If you can't see that Israel runs our foreign policy, has more influence on our foreign policy than the average American does, then you're hopeless.
I can't help you.
Now, if you want to say, hey, that's a good thing, then fine.
If you think Israel's influence over our foreign policy is a good thing and you think Israel's enemies should be our enemies and you like American blood and treasure spilled in the Middle East for foreign interests and special interests and you like that, then that's fine.
Then that's your prerogative.
That's your opinion.
That's fine with me.
That's your policy.
I have a disagreement on that.
But to sit here and pretend like that's not what's happening, you're just not a serious person.
You're not a serious person.
You don't try to be a serious person.
You're not willing to have serious conversations.
So what good are you?
What purpose do you serve in the political discussion if you're not even interested in being on the map of the reality of the situation?
We're not interested in being independent anymore.
We're not interested in they work for us anymore.
What are we doing here?
What has this country become?
And I saw some commentary today, which I think I genuinely agree with.
I said this the other day.
It was either on my show or someone else's.
But I said, I think our next chance to salvage this, it's sad, but it's true.
I think our next shot to salvage this is probably going to be 2032.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think that's the level of damage that this administration is going to do.
They're going to destroy right-wing politics for at least two election cycles.
Hope I'm wrong.
So I think our next shot to actually do what we thought Trump would do, to actually elect someone who's going to follow through on making America great again and all the other things that come along with it.
I think that our next shot will probably be 2032.
At this point, it looks like the damage done by Trump is going to be so long-lasting that it will cost Republicans at least two election cycles.
And my only concern at that point is, because I think if we can get there, by then the right wing will be so hardened.
And by then, I think finally the foreign interests and the special interests will either be a pariah of the right wing or they will be forced to bend to our will permanently.
But that's not going to be till 2032.
My hope is that we just have a country left, honestly.
My hope is that and when we get to that point, that we just have a country left to save.
At this point, it looks like Trump just might hollow the whole damn thing out for foreign and special interests.
And I can't even believe that we have to sit here and watch the Democrats who are now going to be able to win on two things that people on the right will be just flabbergasted over.
The Democrats are going to win these elections on being anti-Israel, and they're going to win on communism.
That's what they're going to do.
And you're going to have rational people on the right that are just going to sit there and say, well, I can't deny it.
Like this from Rokana.
So they want another $200 billion for this war in Iran.
The Democrat Rokana says $200 billion would pay for free college for every American, $10 a day childcare, and 1,000 new trade schools, the 40% federal share of special needs education and a lot more.
What are we even doing here?
MAGA is now Iran first.
Now, you can disagree as far as, hey, I'm no socialist.
I don't want $200 billion in federal spending, period.
But if you had a choice to the average American, if you had a choice to spend $200 billion in the Middle East for war or $200 billion in the United States of America for infrastructure, education, whatever, what would you choose?
What would you choose?
Would you rather spend another $200 billion to get blown up in the Middle East?
Or would you rather spend $200 billion to fix our roads, fix our schools, make things a little more affordable?
What would you rather have?
And I don't think any honest person could say they'd rather spend that in the Middle East.
I think anyone that says that is a liar, a liar.
Either a liar that they care about America when really they just care about a foreign country, or they're a liar that knows this exposes that their America first MAG ideology is a lie.
So they have to say they'd rather spend it in the Middle East because you've just exposed them as a fraud.
How could any American sit here and say, no, I'd rather spend $200 billion in the Middle East.
I don't care about America.
So this is the message now that the Democrats can run on.
You can call it socialist.
It won't matter.
Won't matter.
This is the message the Democrats will run on.
They will run on the anti-Israel ticket and they will win.
They will win.
And you'll have these right-wingers sitting around here saying, oh, my gosh, I can't believe they're selling socialism.
Well, what are you selling?
Tell me, what are you selling?
More war?
More corruption?
What is it that you're selling?
Yeah, maybe if you offered them something better, you wouldn't have to worry about it.
I'm no socialist.
I'm no, I'm a minimal government guy.
Don't put that on me.
Don't you put that on me, Ricky Bobby?
Because that's what they say.
No.
But I'm a realist.
And when all the right wing has to offer is more war and more debt and no reform, guess what?
Young Americans are going to look at what Democrats are offering and they're going to say, that's a better deal for me.
And it will be socialism.
And they're going to run on the anti-Israel ticket.
And people on the right, they're going to say, this is unbelievable.
And if you haven't thought about emergency food supplies, you probably are now.
You probably are at least thinking about them now.
And if you haven't made any emergency food supply purchases, now's your opportunity with our friends at MyPatriot Supply.
This deal that they have going right now: a four-week emergency food kit plus a free one-week ammo can.
So that's five weeks of emergency food supply for the cost of four.
A great way to just have something if you have nothing, a great way to just have something.
That's the deal for my audience right now.
When you go to preparewithoen.com, that's preparewithoen.com, or you can just scan that barcode that is on your screen, and that will take you right to the site.
And the reason why I've partnered with my Patriot Supply, it's pretty simple.
They have the highest quality emergency food supplies.
It also comes in the highest quality container ready to be stored upon delivery.
Each emergency food kit has at least 2,000 calories per day, real meals made with real ingredients, no artificial flavors, no artificial colors, and a shelf life measured in decades.
So, emergency food supplies, food insurance, you can have insurance you can eat for decades.
You don't want to be caught in a situation, which happened again recently in the country with power outages because of bad weather.
The power is out, the stores are closed.
Do you have insurance?
You can eat.
You'd rather, of course, have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
So make sure you have it.
Go to preparewithoen.com or scan that barcode on the screen.
The four-week emergency food kit plus free one-week ammo can available for this listening audience, preparewithoen.com.
Sure you have food for yourself, for your family, to eat in case of an emergency.
Well, you got to wonder where this foreign policy mess is going to end up.
But I believe we are harming our foreign relations.
I believe we are losing that trust factor.
And there's a lot of polls that are starting to indicate that that is the case.
And I've been worried about this really since the start of this war.
People in every single one of the top U.S. allies now think it's better to depend on China than the United States.
The global balance of power is clearly tilting away from the United States and toward China.
Share of respondents who say it's either better to depend on China or on the United States under Donald Trump.
Canada, Germany, France, the UK all say China.
Now, you can take what you want from these polls, whether or not you believe in the accuracy of them or not.
But this is what I've been seeing.
This is the trend I'm seeing.
This is what I'm noticing in the geopolitical world.
That yes, our friends, our allies, other countries around the world look at Donald Trump now and they don't trust him.
They don't trust us.
They don't trust Trump.
They think he sold them a bill of lies and they don't like it.
And this is pushing them into the arms of China.
And so China is just sitting here welcoming it because we've pushed Russia into the arms of China, another bad political foreign policy, but there it is.
So now you've got, and again, this is Trump.
Iran attack hits Israeli oil refinery.
So you've got oil refineries attacked, burning up, blowing up all over the world.
Israel and Iran attack gas facilities in a major escalation that rattles markets.
You know, this was the one, the South Pars gas field, which is on fire.
They say this supplies about 14% of the energy worldwide comes from that gas field, 14% of the oil supply.
So that's a pretty big ding.
How many oil facilities have been blown up since this war began?
You think the world likes that?
No.
Oil prices are going up all over the world.
The damage sustained to some of these facilities, it will take years to repair.
And that's if the bombing stops tomorrow, which it's not.
And this is how they view Trump now.
This is Trump's fault.
Of course, this is Trump getting drug into this by Netanyahu and Israel, but nonetheless, he let him do it.
Iran missile attack on Qatar causes extensive damage to facility housing, huge gas plant.
And that's when Trump came out.
And then there was this kerfuffle last night.
And who knows who's lying?
Maybe they're all lying.
Remember, we said this yesterday when that story of South Pars was still like, it was so bad.
Like, really?
Did that just happen?
So it was like, oh, boy.
Well, now it's confirmed.
And technically, there is no. official treaty with Israel and it would be illegal to even have one because they are not in the non-proliferation treaty.
So technically, Israel just engages in all kinds of illegal activity and gets away with it.
But we do have a deal with Qatar.
Trump signed an executive order doubling that deal with Qatar.
So this Qatar looked at it as an attack.
And then Trump is coming out and saying Israel did it and Israel did it without my permission.
And Israel is just lashing out in anger with all of these attacks.
Well, okay.
So Israel's mad, so it just kills hundreds of thousands of people and disrupts the world's oil supply.
Well, that's just Israel.
They just get to do that.
They're the victims, always the victims, entitled to act this way.
And so then Trump comes out and said, they did it without my permission.
And then all the Israeli mouthpieces come out and they say, Trump lied.
Trump knew we were going to do this attack.
Trump said we could do this attack.
We did the attack.
Trump knew it.
He's lying.
So who's lying?
Who knows?
They're all lying.
They're all liars.
It's a mess.
And you know what it all equates to?
They don't have a plan.
They have no clue what they're doing.
They are panicked.
And, you know, we got some clips from Kash Patel's hearing.
And I think it gives us an idea.
I think it confirms what our beliefs were.
That this was decided on New Year's Eve at Mar-a-Lago.
And the four-year plan to do a regime change in Iran basically got pressed in half into two years, and it had to be done before the midterms.
And so Netanyahu and the Israeli lobby applied all this pressure to Trump.
However, they do it.
I don't know how they do it, but they do it.
Maybe it's the Epstein files.
Maybe it's financial stuff.
Maybe it's the deal that they all made to get elected.
Maybe it's a combination of them all.
Who knows?
Take your guess.
It doesn't matter.
The result is the same.
So Netanyahu goes to Mar-a-Lago on New Year's, says, hey, we only got two years to do this, Donald.
You know, I don't want that video that we have of you going out.
Yeah, I don't know.
And then Kash Patel comes out.
He's asked directly.
He says, when did you know we were going to start this war with Iran?
He says a couple months ago.
So the timeline works out.
They thought they had four years to do the regime change in Iran.
Trump probably wanted to do all this stuff after the midterms because he knew it was massively unpopular.
He knew it would break campaign promises.
But okay, after the midterms, the consequences for you are a lot less.
Netanyahu goes down to Mar-a-Lago on New Year's and says, no, Trump, you work for me.
We're doing the regime change now before the midterms because you're going to get crushed.
And who knows what happens after that?
And then if you don't deliver on the regime change war that we want, then, you know, certain things will come out about you.
So they plan it and they launch it and they have no clue what they're going to do.
And at every single phase, they've failed.
They can't get the people of Iran to go out there and overthrow the government.
I mean, you should see the Fox News propaganda on that that we have.
We'll play to that in a second.
So what is so what does the world see?
The world sees that America yet again is doing Israel's bidding in the Middle East.
The world sees that yet again we have another liar in the White House.
And the average American also sees both of these things happening and is pissed off.
And the world sees the oil supply is being disrupted.
The world sees more death and destruction, more broken promises from an American president, and they don't like it.
And now they're going to China.
And now they're going to BRICS nations.
Who knows the situation with oil?
I got to be honest.
Escalating attacks on Gulf energy assets plunge Iran war into new phase.
Strikes targeting infrastructure in Iran, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia have put oil and gas facilities at the center of the conflict.
I don't think we really know how bad this is yet, guys.
I don't think we know how bad this oil situation is.
If this deal goes on for another month or two or a year, I don't think it's going to be good.
I think it's going to be so bad.
I think you could get up to $200 a barrel.
Because what are you doing?
If the war is going on and all of these refineries and facilities are getting destroyed and you've drained the strategic reserves, well, where do you go?
Oh, they've released the Russian oil.
Oh, they're going to release the Iranian oil too.
Oh, yeah.
We're at war with Russia.
So sorry, they're the only ones with oil.
Got to buy it from them.
We're at war with Iran, but sorry, they're the only ones with oil.
Got to buy it from them.
That's where this is at.
Another pull quote from that Wall Street Journal story.
America's Arab allies are now fuming that they don't seem to have any influence with the Trump administration despite heavy investments of time and money.
Welcome to the club.
We all got duped by Trump.
Trump lied to all of us, deceived all of us.
What do you know?
So here's Scott Bessant.
He's trying to sort this all out on Fox business earlier this morning.
To China, in essence, we will be using the Iranian barrels against the Iranians to keep the price down for the next 10 or 14 days as we continue this campaign.
I mean, folks, you can tell even Scott Besson is losing it.
And I'm not saying he's losing it in this interview, but I mean, you can see that is not the normal, confident Scott Vesant up there speaking from the chest authoritatively.
That's Scott Vessant, like, ah, crap, I got to carry water for this disaster administration again.
All right.
We're using Iranian oil against them.
Like, oh my gosh.
It's just, it's, it's, it's falling apart, it seems.
It's just, it's just completely falling apart.
So, uh, this is Israeli spokesperson or former spokesperson, now unofficial spokesperson, Elon Levy.
The majority of Israel's population just got an emergency alert on their phones to prepare to seek shelter.
That's over 6 million people, men, women, and children, ordered to drop everything and run.
An Iranian ballistic missile is on the way.
Now, let me just address a couple things here.
First of all, how do you quantify this?
Because America suffers from this same psychological disorder, which is basically confirmation bias.
Since when we go into these wars, for the most part, we don't really pay the price, or it's not here in our backyard, in our front yard, in our kitchen every day, like it is in other countries when we go to these wars.
So that kind of creates this illusion and this bias that it's almost like the wars don't exist, or that there's some sort of a protection entitlement or safety entitlement that, oh, we can start wars all around the world, but no one will ever touch us and they can't anyway.
So that's the idea here.
So here's Israel starting a war with Iran, and then Iran fights back and they're like, what are you doing?
How dare you?
It's like, what are you talking about?
You just killed Iranian.
You just killed how many Iranians?
3,000?
How many Iranians died in Israel's airstrikes?
3,000?
And it's like, oh, you can't attack us back.
What is that?
What is that mindset?
I don't want to see Israelis die.
I don't want to see Iranians die.
I don't want this war.
I'm against this war.
This blood is not on my hands.
But let's not pretend for one second that the Israeli leadership and Netanyahu, if anybody is the most responsible for this war, it's Israel's leadership, probably followed up by Trump.
So to that degree, we have a certain guilt.
But what is this?
We're going to start a war with you and bomb your country.
And if you dare fight back, we're going to cry and act like the victims.
If I go up and punch somebody in the face and then they start fighting back and I start crying and weeping like a little bitch, well, I'm the bitch.
I'm the one that started the fight.
That's on me.
So what is this idea?
Oh my gosh, we killed a bunch of Iranians.
We started a war.
They're daring to strike back.
What the hell is that?
And it'll be the same thing.
God forbid.
If America starts getting hit, it'll be the same attitude here.
No, this is the foreign policy.
This is the foreign policy disaster of another regime change war in the Middle East on Israel's behalf.
But folks, it's not going so hot in Israel right now.
And there's obviously a media blackout on that situation because they want the illusion of victory.
It's not going so well in Israel.
They're in bomb shelters all the time.
The airport is getting blasted.
Oil refineries are getting blasted.
Sirens are constantly going off.
Missiles are constantly hitting targets.
It is not good in Israel.
Israel is getting hit.
That is not good for Israel or the Israeli people.
And that is happening every single day.
And I get people that reach out to me just because I have a big X account.
And I have people that reach out to me and they give me these updates.
And I don't even want to say, I don't even want to say it because it's literally illegal for them to have these videos.
It is literally illegal and a punishable offense, the material that they're giving me on X, the videos that they're sending me, the statements that they're sending me.
It's illegal.
You can't do it.
You will get arrested.
So I'm not going to show it because I don't want to put these people in danger.
But I'm telling you, I've seen it.
They are constantly in bomb shelters.
The airports are a disaster.
The sirens are going off all the time.
The damage done on the ground in Israel is massive.
But they make it illegal to film it.
They make it illegal to share it so nobody can see it.
So people just send it to me.
They're like, hey, I was just able to get on this VPN and send this to you so you can see what's going on in Israel because it's illegal to share this.
So this is the games that they play.
This is how they propagandize the West and propagandize America.
And Trump is just totally a part of it now.
It's disgusting.
It's disgusting.
And then they sit here and tell you, oh, you just hate Israel.
Oh, really?
Because I don't really hear you complaining about what's going on in Israel because of this war.
I don't hear you complaining about Netanyahu's bloodlust and thirst for power and expansion and legacy in the Middle East, resulting in Israel getting bombed and attacked and Israelis living in bomb shelters.
I don't hear you complaining about that.
Is that a sacrifice you're willing to make?
Are you okay?
Hey, tell the Israelis that you're okay with them getting bombed for however long it takes.
Tell the Israelis that they need to live in bomb shelters for however long it takes and it's just totally worth it.
Let them know that's how you feel.
Let them know.
And then they do this game and it's all selective.
It's like, well, gee, why do I, I mean, folks, ask yourself the obvious question.
Why do I see these videos from these bomb shelters of Israelis dancing and cheering and having parties?
And when you look close, when you look at the details of these videos, you can actually see the people around them are like, what the hell is wrong with you?
You're sick.
We're getting bombed.
There's literally bombs going off above us right now.
And you guys are in here dancing and drinking.
What the hell is wrong with you?
You can see it in these videos.
Who do you think is filming these videos?
Why do you think these videos are able to get posted on X and nothing else?
I don't see you upset that Israeli Jews are living in bunkers and they don't know when they're going to be able to come out.
I don't see you upset that Israeli Jews can't even get out of the country because everything's shut down.
I don't see you upset that Israeli Jews are being threatened with punishment because you're not even allowed to film or share what's actually happening on the ground.
So here's Kash Patel.
And like I said, I think that this confirms that, yep, the decision was made on New Year's.
That's when they decided they were going to do this war.
And here's the Democrats getting this out of Patel earlier today.
And it really is crazy.
I'll give the Democrats credit.
And I don't think I could ever vote for a Democrat.
And I'm not really, you know, it's not like I'm attracted to any policies they offer.
But clearly, the Democrats have kind of had this moment now.
And you can see it in these hearings for the most part.
You know, the radical left, kind of the outlandish theatrics of progressives, it's kind of gone.
They've kind of had this look-in-the-mirror moment.
It's like, how did Trump get in?
How did we lose the House and the Senate?
And they kind of had this look-in-the-mirror moment.
They were like, okay, it's us.
We've gone crazy.
We've lost our minds.
Maybe the policies don't change, but we need to be a little more presentable.
We need to behave a little better.
And you can see it now.
You can see the Democrats have made that adjustment.
It's going to work for them, but you can really see it during these hearings where normally these people come off as complete, completely unhinged jackasses, and now they come off at least appearing to be normal.
But here's Representative Cohen or Senator Cohen getting it out of Patel that they planned this a couple months ago.
We can get into those details on a classify setting, but I work with my colleagues across the spectrum here to give me advance warnings so that we can reinforce it.
With that knowledge, why did you fire at least a dozen agents in Counterintelligence Unit 12 that specializes in Iran counterintelligence, which makes us much less secure and safe with this war going on from Iranian attacks potentially against our country?
As I said earlier, Congressman, I don't work on timelines when these terminations occur.
They're internal investigations conducted by the careers at the FBI that highlight unethical or inappropriate conduct, and it's up to me to make the decision.
But our Iran Threats Mission Center has never been more resourced as I've highlighted a 43% increase in counter-espionage arrest from Iran alone and 360 ongoing terrorism investigations with Iran-affiliated.
You reverse the role, and you have a Republican asking an FBI director during a Democrat administration, and you have that same series of events play out.
Republicans would be furious.
They'd say they can't answer questions.
They're avoiding any answers.
Whatever.
I don't really care too much about the details.
We'll see the results of it all.
But I think the big moment there is when he said, well, we had months.
We had a couple months' warning.
So I think that that proves the timeline.
The original goal for the Iran regime change was four years.
They were going to really start the bombing campaign after the midterms.
Once they realized that the midterms didn't look good, Netanyahu came to Mar-a-Lago, said, Trump, we got to do it before the midterms.
That's why it's so frustrating dealing with these nitwits, dealing with these nothings that are just cheerleaders that don't even live in reality.
The whole world knows Israel controls our foreign policy.
Like, it's not, it's not a conspiracy theory.
Everybody knows it.
Now, this, the audio on this is really low, so just accept it.
Turkish foreign minister Hakan Fadan, it should be especially noted that the primary responsible party for this war, which has drawn our region into unprecedented crisis, is Israel.
unidentified
Bringing the crisis to resolution through diplomatic methods, it should be expressly indicated that the primary responsible party for this war that has drawn our region to an unprecedented crisis is Israel.
You know, we haven't had peace in the Middle East since Israel was formed.
You know that?
And yet we've been trying to reach peace in the Middle East by going up against every one of Israel's enemies and doing exactly what Israel advises us to do.
And it hasn't worked for 50 years.
So, you know, maybe, just maybe Israel's the problem.
I don't know.
Just, hey, just looking at what we've tried and what's failed.
We've tried to accomplish peace in the Middle East since Israel was formed in 1948.
It hasn't happened ever.
There's been zero peace in the Middle East since Israel became a country in 1948.
And the United States of America, which has been trying to accomplish every administration, thinks they're going to be the ones that figure this deal out.
And they go off of Israeli intelligence and they go off of Israel determining the foreign policy in the Middle East.
And it's never worked.
It's literally not worked one time.
And here we are again: more death, more destruction, more war, more hatred.
So, you know, after half a century, after almost 100 years of failure of accomplishing peace in the Middle East since Israel has been formed and letting Israel determine our foreign policy in the Middle East to try to accomplish peace, after it's failed for almost 100 years, you'd think we maybe would step back and say, maybe they're the problem.
Every other country on the world has figured it out.
It seems like we're the last ones to the party here.
But then again, that's maybe because we were partying on Epstein Island.
And so you just heard from Turkey.
They're meeting with the Qataris.
Same guy, by the way.
Turkish foreign minister meets Qatari defense chief.
So I'm telling you, folks, they're cutting us off.
I'm telling you right now, they're cutting us off.
They're cutting Trump off.
They don't trust us anymore.
They don't trust Trump anymore.
This thing is not going to go the way they expect it.
And we do have some clips from Trump with the new Japanese president here in a second.
And they're bragging and they're saying, oh, look, Trump got these other countries to actually engage in the Strait of Hormuz.
No, the only reason why these countries are getting involved in the Strait of Hormuz now is because they don't have any other option.
They're out of gas.
They've got like a couple days left until they're completely out of gas.
So they have to go in there and try to get oil moving through the Strait of Hormuz.
So Trump screwed all of our allies.
All the deals that Trump cut with the Gulf nation states, now they're like, I'm not so sure about this guy.
Japan, South Korea, India, we just screwed all of them.
They get the majority of their oil from the Strait of Hormuz.
Now they're screwed.
Trump screwed over all of our allies.
Trump screwed over the entire world for Netanyahu.
What does Netanyahu have on this guy?
Honestly, how is this even real?
So here we are.
Turkey pushed to include Israel's expansionist policies in Riyadh's statement.
So Saudi Arabia seems to be the only one that is maybe still sticking with Trump and not anti-Israel on this deal.
And maybe that's because some of them are in the files.
But Turkey is obviously anti-Israel.
Turkey is now with Qatar saying, hey, you know what's better for our region, right?
Qatar is like, yeah, we thought we could work with Trump.
I don't know.
And now they're sending Qatar over to Saudi Arabia to see if they can't change the situation there.
And so here is the prime minister of Qatar saying what we all know.
unidentified
Say that this war needs to stop immediately.
The aggression needs to stop immediately because everyone knows who is the big beneficiary of this war and dragging the whole region into this conflict.
Yeah, everyone except the brainwashed people in America that can't figure it out.
But you know what?
Look, I'll be nice.
I'll be nice for a second.
I get it.
I get it.
It's Black Lives Matter for conservatives, just like liberals think you're racist.
Conservatives think you're anti-Semitic.
That's all it is.
So you have these brainwashed people on the right, and they just think you're anti-Semitic if you don't support the war.
That's what it is.
And they think they're, you know, in their heart of hearts, you know, they think that they're on the moral high ground here for supporting Israel.
And that's how they look at it.
And they've been dealing with years of anti-Muslim propaganda for decades, the anti-Muslim propaganda.
They watched the Twin Towers fall.
They said it was a Muslim that did it because they hate our way of life.
So, I mean, they're just so deep in the brainwashing.
I mean, you know, it's like a guy gets harpooned in the leg and is bleeding out, and you're mad at him for bleeding out.
Well, I mean, he got hit with a harpoon.
You know, that's what this is.
So the whole world knows why this is happening in the Middle East.
Everybody knows this is all Israel.
Everybody, except the brainwashed members of the American world and the Western world that just have fallen for all the propaganda, have fallen for the Black Lives Matter propaganda.
It's the same thing.
Supporting Israel, fighting anti-Semitism.
That's Black Lives Matter for conservative.
It's the exact same propaganda, just a different flag, a different idea, same propaganda.
But it's funny because they'll sit here on the right wing and they'll say, Black Lives Matter is propaganda.
Black Lives Matter is, you know, against white people, against America's interests.
Oh, but now do Israel.
Now do anti-Semitism.
Same difference.
Except one is domestic, one is foreign policy.
So you want to see how crazy it really is?
This was on Fox News.
Folks, I mean, come on.
They're now claiming it's a good thing to get bombed.
Oh, yeah.
They're now claiming.
This is how desperate they are.
This is how unpopular this war is.
They're now telling you that Iranians want to get bombed.
You have the people who are talking to Iranians in Iran saying, you know, they're most afraid of the bombs stopping because if the bombs stop, they believe the United States might be done.
And when they have the moment to tweet, they're tweeting and saying, please don't stop because the worst thing that could happen to us is if you leave this regime in place, which means who is going to pay the price?
And now we're waiting to do the same with America and Israel.
We're trying to get free from Israel.
So this is how desperate they are.
They have all these full panels of Jews and Israelis on Fox News.
And they're now saying bombing is good and Iran wants us to bomb them.
They are sending Israelis onto Fox News panels to convince the American people that Iranians want to get bombed.
That Iranians are celebrating getting bombed.
Do you see why?
I just can't do it, man.
I mean, do you see how unreal this world is?
Do you see how unserious the political conversations are now?
This is insane.
This is like, what?
What in the hell?
I mean, you go on Fox News and they have an Israeli and a rabbi and a guy in a small hat telling you that Iranians are glad we're bombing them, telling you that Iranians are celebrating bombs going off over their head.
I mean, where do we go from here, guys?
Honestly, where do we go from here?
Tell me, it can't get more insane than this.
I mean, it cannot get more insane than this.
I'm trying to figure out what is next.
I mean, they're probably going to start imprisoning people.
I called that first.
I said, I was jailed by the left for my speech.
At this rate, I'll probably get jailed by the right for my speech.
I might not be the first one or they might not even hit me.
They're trying to go after Carlson.
They're trying to go after Kent.
They tried to go after Dan Caldwell.
Anybody that doesn't support Israel inside of DC, they try to arrest you.
So there it is.
I'm just like, where does this go?
Can you get crazier?
Forget about all the lies and propaganda and then all the miscommunication coming out of the White House.
Whatever.
Let's talk about the media.
Tell me, tell me how it gets crazier than tuning into Fox News and seeing a panel of Israelis and a panel of Jews telling you that Iranians want to get bombed.
Telling you that Iranians are begging America to bomb them, and they're sitting up there in their tiny hats and their Star of David necklaces telling an American Christian audience that, hey, Christians, Iranians want to get bombed.
Keep dropping the bombs.
Keep doing the killing.
Iranians love it.
They love getting bombed.
They love hearing the explosions.
They love the fact we just killed a bunch of kids at a school.
This is great.
Does it get crazier than that?
Does it get more looney tunes than that?
Does it get more insane than that?
Are we crazier than the Biden years at this point?
I mean, that is a legitimate question.
I actually say yes.
I think that we are now when they said Biden is sharp as attack and fit as a fiddle.
That's where MAGA is now.
We are at that level of propaganda.
Trump has a hundred percent approval rating.
Okay.
And Biden's fit as a fiddle and Biden is sharp as attack.
Same thing.
Same thing.
But I don't know where you, I don't know what parallel you have for people on a Fox News panel saying Iranians are begging for us to bomb them.
I don't think there's any parallel for that.
I don't even know where you go for that.
Good lord.
Okay.
The crazy continues.
I mean, folks, this is crazy.
So this is the Japanese prime minister, that new lady they just elected.
There's more war in the Middle East than we've seen in 20 years.
I just, what are we doing, man?
I can't.
I need to like, I got to get a clown outfit.
I know, I don't, I mean, who falls for this crap?
Who believes this crap?
I believe Donald Trump can bring peace to the world.
The world is on fire.
The whole Middle East is on fire.
Mostly peaceful protests.
Trump is the peace president.
It's the same thing.
Joe Biden is sharp as attack.
President Trump has 100% approval rating.
it's the same thing.
Now, speaking of peace.
So there's a new revelation happening.
It appears what's going on here is that there are some members of Iranian leadership that were having the diplomatic negotiations with Trump's envoy, who now I'm actually wondering if they weren't Netanyahu's envoy.
And Kent says all of the people that we had negotiations with in Iran to try to actually get a peace deal done, to get a peace deal done, to get a nuclear deal done.
And I'm going to have all these details in a second.
All the people that we were negotiating with to get peace done, Israel kills them all.
So now I'm actually thinking that the whole envoy of Witkoff and Kushner and the rest, they were never looking for peace.
They were going to scout, they were going to spy for Israel.
And so that they could report back to Netanyahu and say, hey, here's all the Iranians that we're negotiating with that actually want peace.
Here's who you want to kill.
That's now what I believe is happening.
I believe Israel is killing all of the Iranian leadership that was trying to reach a peace deal because they don't want peace.
They want death and whatever else it is they're looking for in Iran.
And now it looks like there's enough evidence that that's a fair conclusion to reach.
That they were the envoy was never looking for peace.
They were trying to find out who in Iran wanted peace so that Israel could then kill them.
That are killed off, like we just killed Ali Laranjani, who was a negotiator, who was eager to get us a deal.
Again, look, I've got no love for the IRGC.
I've got no love for the Iranians, but you've got to realize that in case you're cheating right now, you fought their proxies.
I fought their proxies.
I mean, I put countless of them in flex cuffs or much worse.
I've gone after the Iranians.
I was in specialized outfits that went after the Iranians and their proxies.
These are very serious people.
They're not supermen by any means.
They're humans.
But they're serious.
And if you give the IRGC a reason to take more control and they get support from the people, because again, you kill off the Ayatollah, they can say, hey, the last guy was too moderate.
So a lot of these, the points that you're making, I think, are insightful, but they're also pretty obvious if you kind of game it out for 10 seconds.
So it seems like you've got two different goals.
You've described Israel's goal as just regime change, permanent chaos, take Iran off the map as a coherent nation state, just tie them up with internal chaos, whatever the effects of that are on the rest of the world, all of them disastrous.
Then on the American side, you have the president's stated goal, which is we can't let Iran have a nuclear weapon, which they didn't have and weren't trying to build in any imminent way.
So it seems that Kushner and Witkoff are just trying to figure out who in Iran is trying to get a peace deal done to avoid a war, and then they ID them and then Israel kills them.
And I don't even think it's a stretch to reach that conclusion at this point.
And I think that that is a pretty easy conclusion to reach about Israel in general at this point, that they're not interested in peace.
And it's like, when would Israel ever be satiated in this deal, by the way?
Would Israel's lust for blood and expansion ever be satiated?
Let's say they accomplish Greater Israel.
Let's say they kill and displace a million people.
Well, then what are they going to do then?
You really think they're just going to stop?
This thing is out of control.
This thing is out of control, and it's disgusting.
It's disgusting the betrayal of Trump allowing this to continue and becoming a part of it.
It's disgusting.
It's one thing to say, hey, we're out.
Good luck.
Hey, we're out.
We're not going to get involved with your agenda.
We're not going to stop it.
Whatever.
Good luck.
It's a whole nother thing to say, hey, what do you need?
What do you need to kill more people?
What do you need to keep the war going?
What do you need to destroy the oil markets?
What do you need?
We got you.
What do you need?
Now, there's claims that during the negotiation in Geneva, that Iran was making offers as Britain was negotiating with them to turn over everything.
And also, this has been even stated with the Trump administration.
It was even stated with the Trump administration.
Now, again, if you want to say you don't trust the Iranians, okay.
But it was stated with the Trump administration.
And now this is coming out of the peace talks in Geneva that Iran said, hey, you guys can come in and here's the deal, do all the negotiations and do all the investigations, anything you want with our nuclear.
We'll even let American businesses come in and run it.
This was the offer on the table.
And this is all official.
Iran said, hey, you guys come in here, do what you want to do.
And then apparently they made the same offers at Geneva.
So what do you think happened?
What do you think happened after these offers were made by Iran to stop this war?
It was Israel that started the bombing and then that forced Trump into it.
So it was Israel that started dropping the bombs.
I mean, folks, it's all over.
The evidence is everywhere.
Israel never wanted peace.
And every time we got close to a peace deal, Israel started killing people.
And every time we had negotiators from Iran that were trying to avoid a war, Israel ID'd them and blew them off the map.
And you know what?
This is the harsh reality right here.
This is the heavy reality of why this is so depressing.
Again, I went out of the Middle East.
I don't want to get involved in Israel's affairs.
If Israel wants to start a war with every single one of its country and they think that they can win it and it's better for that region, I don't want to get in their way.
Go ahead.
Not my business.
Not my problem.
Not my business.
You do you.
No.
The problem is Israel would not be able to do any of this if it wasn't for our support.
If it wasn't for United States blood and treasure and military, Israel would not be able to get away with any of this.
And that's what's so heavy about it.
That's what's so heartbreaking about it.
If we had nothing to do with it, if we didn't spend trillions of dollars, if we weren't dropping bombs, if we didn't have troops in the region, if we weren't partners with Israel, I wouldn't care.
It might be a news story we talk about.
Maybe we have an opinion on it or whatever.
I wouldn't be heavily invested.
I wouldn't be heartbroken.
Oh, good luck.
No, none of this would be happening if it wasn't for our government.
And that's why it's so heartbreaking.
That's why it's so heartbreaking.
And, you know, I've got more of that.
I've got more of that later on in the stack.
I don't know.
We're getting mixed messages.
Trump is saying they're going to put boots in the ground.
Now he's saying they're not going to put boots in the ground.
Who knows?
You know, who knows?
Everybody's having a laugh over that Pearl Harbor joke that Trump made today.
So who knows if he even means it or if it even happened.
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes.
Because the more war we start, the more peace we get.
Right.
Yeah.
The more we kill people all around the planet, the more peaceful our country gets, the more peaceful the world gets.
Yeah, except that hasn't happened once.
Oh, yeah.
Us us doing another regime change war, turning more countries in the world against us.
Yes, that will have a better life for your kid.
When we lose the petrodollar, when we lose our control over the flow of energy, when the whole world turns against us and turns to China, yes, that'll be much better for your kid, Pete.
That'll be a much better world for your kid.
Because, you know, the trajectory of America, we all agree, is downward, and yet you guys are doing the exact same thing as everyone else has.
So you're not changing the trajectory.
Oh, but that'll be good, I'm sure.
And I'm sure everyone agrees that these men died for American causes.
So now the Republicans have a problem ahead of the midterms.
How do you sell?
And that's why he goes out there and says that.
That's why he goes out there and says that these men died for us and it's for a better future because they know in the midterms, they how are you going to sell this?
How are you going to sell this war that nobody likes?
How are you going to sell high gas prices?
Well, Michelle Tafoya, who is running for Senate in Minnesota, she's on a local talk radio show and she's asked, How do you run in a midterm race when the administration is failing on all of its promises?
How do you run in the midterms when gas prices are going up?
What are some of the big issues on the minds of voters there in Minnesota?
Well, yeah, you know, look, we've all been told that the word affordability is key, and it is.
And right now, I would say, you know, look, we had gas prices at a five-year low, and we were really enjoying watching that.
And now here we are in a conflict in the Middle East, which is bringing gas prices up again.
I know it's frustrating, and I know it's hard for people.
What I would say to them is we've lost some service members over there who have put their lives on the line to protect us, to protect the region, protect America's friends in the region.
We can all, you know, it used to be during the past wars, especially World War II.
Oh, if you don't support every war, you're a bad American.
If you don't support every war, then you don't support our troops.
No, that's not good logic.
If our military has been compromised, if our foreign policy and our military decisions have been compromised and sold out to foreign and special interests, and our boys and our girls who are in the military are fighting overseas and dying for foreign and special interests, no, stopping that would be in their best interest.
Stopping that would be taking the pro-America and protecting our servicemen stance.
Of course, Michelle Tafoya, who I like, Michelle, but you know, she's like 60.
So this is all just boomerism.
It's just totally crazy.
So there she is.
She admits it.
Yeah, this whole thing is for Israel.
And yeah, we know it's not popular, but you're anti-American if you don't support it.
And then, oh, and yes, you just have to pay higher gas prices.
We're going to have to start pushing the gas here.
There's a bill, and I'm trying to determine where this is coming from.
I think it might be in the Save Act.
Oh, no.
Okay, it's a new one.
I'm just getting this.
So there's a new digital ID bill.
Oh, here we go.
A new digital ID bill.
America's newest digital ID proposal just dropped in the U.S. Senate.
Republican Senator Marshall Blackburn has introduced a new AI bill that bundles 17 different policies into one massive 291-page bill.
I just got the bill, by the way.
It's not the SAVE Act, it's a separate bill.
This is just like all these other tech bills we've been seeing: a massive digital ID framework with universal age verification being the key access to the tools.
The bill includes mandatory age verification for every existing account and freezing accounts until users verify their age.
Let me just ask you this question: Do we need it?
Is this really a necessary thing?
You know, here's the problem with government: it never gets smaller.
There's always going to be some issue, whether it's a big issue, a little issue, a serious issue, a non-issue.
There's always going to be some politician, some bureaucracy that just wants to do something.
They just have to do something.
And because they always have to do something, that something requires expansion of government.
So now they got this AI bill: age verification, AI identities.
I mean, you know, it's exactly what it is.
It's Skynet.
It's the AI takeover.
It's the end of the internet as we know it.
It's the digital ID.
It's the digital interface.
It's the digital life.
Here's the bill.
I'm sure they'll just pass it to promote innovation in artificial intelligence and safeguard children, creators, communities, and stop censorship.
And of course, it'll be used for censorship.
That's the whole purpose.
So there you go.
Here comes your AI world brought in by the Trump administration.
Here comes your big AI government brought in by conservatives.
We have to do something to stop this momentum.
We as Americans have to have this realization.
We have to have it now.
Our government is, it's beyond out of control.
I mean, it's beyond out of control.
It's beyond being too big.
It's beyond trampling our rights.
It's beyond destroying the American way of life.
We have to realize at some point, Americans are going to have to stand up and just say, enough.
Enough.
We got to pull the plug on this.
Why do you guys, why do you do this to us?
Like the automatic stop start engine.
What a nightmare.
Got rid of that.
Got rid of that disaster.
So now what are they bringing back?
Now they're bringing back like some AI auto-driving interface that they're going to make that mandatory in cars.
What are we doing?
They want to make gas engines illegal?
Stop it.
What gave you guys the idea that this is the American way to keep building a bigger and bigger and builder and bigger government until it encroaches on every aspect of our life and we can't get away from it.
We're sick of it.
Can we reverse this trend?
Can we stop the growth of government?
Can we stop the encroachment of government into every aspect of our personal lives?
Enough!
Enough!
And this is like the big moment here.
This is like the huge one.
The AI surveillance government, folks, the AI smart government.
Now they're bringing that in.
And these politicians, they're so sick in the head.
They're going to be up there clapping and cheering it on and clinking glasses about how they just passed this bill and it's some accomplishment for them and their stocks and AI and everything else are going to go up and they're all schmoozing about it.
It's out of control.
Our government is out of control.
It is beyond too big.
It is beyond corrupt.
And it's all this little nitpicking of, ooh, what else can I do?
Where can I grow government?
Where can I fill a void of a government-free zone and put the government in it?
How can I make government permanent in every aspect of people's lives?
Can you just leave us alone?
Do we need to remind you about the Declaration of Independence?
Do we need to remind you about the Bill of Rights?
It seems as though you have forgotten.
It seems as though you have forgotten your oath.
Well, at least we're going to get the Trump currency.
Called that one a mile away.
Commission hand-picked by Trump is weighing whether to put his picture on a commemorative gold coin.
Proposed design features a portrait of Trump standing above the resolute desk on a 14-karat gold coin.
No, that's not good, actually.
We're going to need a 24-karat gold.
14-karat, what is that?
Garbage is what it is for me.
We only do 24, and so this is nice.
It's my people.
I picked my own people to make this coin.
So, you know, that's what communists do.
They just rig the government to get the outcome they want.
And that's what we do here.
So, yes, I have a hand-picked group.
The commission hand-picked by me, your favorite president or least favorite, I don't know anymore.
It could very soon approve a design for a commemorative $1 gold coin featuring a portrait of me.
CIA accused of poisoning the sky with toxins as files expose secret weather control agenda.
Still going on, by the way.
So that's nice.
You know that fraud in California we were exposing last week?
Yeah, we're still exposing it.
No arrests yet.
No investigation, nothing from the Trump administration.
We got a war to deal with.
If this fraud was happening in Israel, then maybe we could get some action, but because it's America, they're not interested.
State records show 89 hospice companies at one Los Angeles office plaza.
And then we shared that video they've done now the follow-up here with the story.
Even Nick Shirley went.
Nick Shirley followed up and went there, and that got shared by Elon Musk.
No arrests.
I'm telling you, look, I know it's kind of a funny joke, but I mean, they should say, here's how you have to handle things now.
You know, you have to come up with creative ideas.
You have to adapt in order to be, you know, successful.
So they have to go in there and they have to say it's Muslims committing the fraud.
If you go in there and you say it's Muslims and anti-Semitic Jew-hating Muslims that are committing this fraud, then Pambondi and Kash Patel will show up and do something about it.
Otherwise, nothing will happen.
Or if you say, hey, this is Israel fraud.
These are Muslims in Israel committing fraud.
Then they'll send a team out, helicopters, jets, whatever you need.
But if it's just, oh, American people getting, you know, American people getting money stolen, fraud happening in California, not interested.
Not interested.
So you just got to find ways to get things done.
Daughter of New Jersey police chief accuses him and others of ritualistic abuse, years of sexual assault.
And she went on this podcast.
This is a picture from the podcast right here, by the way.
Courtney Temagni, 20 years old now, alleges her father sexually assaulted her and her sisters in this lawsuit.
And she talks about this satanic, demonic, ritualistic abuse.
And it's a police chief.
It's amazing how that works out.
Why are all these police involved?
Oh, we got the answer to our question, guys.
We got the answer to our question.
Apparently, Bongino is still on air.
Apparently, Bongino is still on air.
And he made some news today because why?
Because he was talking about Joe Kent.
So isn't that amazing?
The only way Dan Bongino can be relevant now is by talking about Joe Kent.
I haven't seen or heard anything about Bongino except that he's now slipped out of the top 100 podcasts.
He used to annually be top five.
Now he's out of the top 100.
And that's when he came back, he was still considered higher.
And it's just been nothing but down since he came back.
So the only way Bongino can be relevant now is when he talks about Joe Kent.
I'm not even going to bother with the things that he said.
But he says something similar to what Stephen A. Smith and others have said that I'll get into in a second.
But let's just stop right there for a second.
I think this is a very important thing to understand.
And I don't know.
I feel like there's value somewhere in this, except that the whole MAGA divide is over and the whole MAGA cult is just a cult now.
So I don't really know if it works.
But folks, this is the measuring stick.
If you really want to know where Americans are at politically, if you really want to know where the American right wing is at politically, there's all different polls and different measurements and data points that you can take.
I look at the story of Bongino and I think this is the most indicative data point for where right-wing politics are at.
And even the Trump administration, considering he was part of it.
Dan Bongino goes from top five, undoubtedly, right-wing podcasts.
Maybe number one.
But I mean, I think we can safely say top five.
Bongino goes from top five podcasts, goes to the Trump administration.
So you're thinking now, oh, that's a big boost, right?
That increases his credibility.
That increases his profile, leaves the administration, goes back to his show, and it flatlines.
It flatlines.
And this is Bongino, big Trump guy, part of the administration, leaves under, you know, apparently good enough graces.
He's positive on Trump.
He's positive when he leaves.
Everything's positive and fine.
Returns to his show, dead.
Dead.
We were wondering for the last month, is he even on air?
Nobody even knows.
That's how irrelevant Bongino has become.
And I'm not even trying to play this game of dunking on Bongino.
I don't know what he's going through.
That's not what it's about.
That to me is the indicative data point of how unpopular Trump has become and how right-wing politics has already moved on from that.
Joe Kent could start a podcast tomorrow and get more interest than Dan Bongino.
And you could argue that this has already been proven because the Joe Kent Tucker Carlson interview is bigger than any show Dan Bongino has done since he returned from the FBI, since he quit and became a talk show host again from the FBI.
Think about that.
So I see that, and I wonder, is it even worse than we think?
And I do think it's generational.
In fact, this happened earlier today.
Where I go, I go to my normal places, whatever I get recognized, my social circles, people want to talk politics.
A guy who's my age asks me about what I think about Trump and everything.
We're talking.
We're talking.
We're both on the same page.
We're not happy with this administration.
We both gave him a D.
And we're just kind of going back and forth why we're not happy, whatever.
Older guy picks up on it, comes over.
I've talked to this guy too.
He's like, oh, he's like, I forget what he says.
And we're like, well, what do you think about Trump?
And he's like, well, he's like, I'm not as upset over the war as you guys.
He's an older guy.
He's like, I'm not really as upset over the war as you guys are.
But I have to say, I'm disappointed in what we're not getting domestically.
They're not getting the mass deportations.
Gas prices are up.
No deep state arrests.
I'm really wondering if Trump's popularity is actually worse than we think.
I'm kind of like 30, maybe 40% of MAGA is out.
I'm thinking maybe 30 to 40% of Trump supporters and MAGA is out.
They're unhappy with this administration.
I'm wondering if that number isn't higher, actually.
I'm wondering now if that number isn't higher.
Because this was the type of conversation where I thought the older gentleman would come in and be very happy.
The older gentleman would come in, and he'll wear Trump stuff.
I've seen him wear Trump stuff before.
I thought he would come in and say, oh, no, I think Trump's great.
I'll give him a B or an A or whatever.
And even he was like, well, I'm not as upset with the war, but I'm not too pleased either.
I'm wondering if Trump's popularity isn't worse than we think.
And that's why they're putting up these ridiculous polls that, oh, it's 100%.
I mean, that's North Korea communist level.
So here's what they're doing now.
So, okay.
So, Joe Kent.
This is, man.
This is so frustrating.
It shows how intellectually inept our political conversations are.
It shows how unsophisticated the political conversation is in this country.
It's like extremely depressing to a point that it leaves you hopeless when it's this retarded.
So, Joe Kent goes on with Tucker.
And to me, I think it was a very fair conversation.
I don't think you've seen the foreign policy discussed from a member of the administration as clearly and eloquently as it was laid out by Joe Kent.
And yet, now the attacks come, of course.
So, I got a couple examples.
Here's Stephen A. Smith.
I'm not going to play the clip.
I don't have enough time.
Stephen A. Smith says Joe Kent's remarks about Israel pushing the U.S. into war with Iran could fuel anti-Semitism.
Well, so what are we saying here?
Here's the Washington Post: Joe Kent's resignation over Iran war reignites anti-Semitism fears over debate on Israeli influence.
I can go on and on here.
John Bolton on CNN last night.
It was anti-Semitic.
Tucker and Joe Kent, anti-Semitic.
Lindsey Graham, everybody.
And so, okay, let's just say, what if it's true?
What if it's true that Israel is controlling our foreign policy and Israel is the reason we're back in another war in the Middle East?
Let's just say that that's true.
Now, I would say that's obviously true, but let's just, for an open conversation.
So, what?
I can't say that because it's anti-Semitic.
So, the truth is anti-Semitic?
That's the idea here.
That's the philosophy here.
This is the conclusion that you've reached.
So, you can't even say the truth about foreign policy because it's anti-Semitic?
Well, gee, what does that do?
Well, now you're pinned.
Now you're stuck.
Now there's nothing you can do.
So it's like, this is why I say it's Black Lives Matter for conservatives because it is.
If you dare say, hey, black Americans represent a disproportionate amount of crimes committed in this country.
Is that racist?
And then I can't say it?
Or is that true?
So here you go.
Here's Israel totally influencing our foreign policy.
But if you say it, you're anti-Semitic.
So the truth is anti-Semitic.
Think about how dangerous that is as a principle, as a practice.
Think about how stunted your mind is.
Think about how stunted the conversation becomes when you consider the truth an unspeakable thing because it might be offensive.
And of course, that's the whole game here.
That's the whole game is to say it's anti-Semitic so that you don't talk about it so that it continues.
And that's what they're all saying.
So you can't even have, so political correctness is back, censorship is back, woke is back.
You can't even have an honest conversation in this country anymore.
And now it's happening on the right wing, or you're an anti-Semite.
And of course, you sit here and it's just like the Russian collusion game when all the Trump supporters were called Russian assets.
And we're sitting here like, okay, well, obviously I'm not a Russian asset.
So you're crazy.
It's the same thing now.
Oh, you're a Qatari asset.
Oh, you're an anti-Semite.
No, I'm not an anti-Semite or a Qatari asset.
So you're crazy.
It's the same crap.
It's the same propaganda rolled out every single time, just new names, new colors, new faces, new angles.
And now you can't even have an honest conversation.
And oh, it's anti-Semitic to have a foreign policy debate and talk about Israel, as if Israel isn't all over our foreign policy, as if Israel isn't the number one benefactor of our foreign policy, as if Israel isn't the number one spender of money in Congress with APAC and the Adelsons and everyone else.
But you're not allowed to talk about it.
And then you do talk about it and they say, oh, gee, why don't you just leave Israel alone?
And we're like, what are you talking about?
I want Israel to leave me alone.
It's really, there's no words to describe it.
It's completely insane.
It's destroying our country.
It's political correctness.
It's woke right.
Oh, boy.
I got more of this, but I'm almost out of time.
This is at the EU.
Polish MP Gregor's Braun.
Oh, boy.
Gregor's Braun from Poland said this at the EU.
unidentified
And the last speaker, and then I have to close the list, but we're going through all speakers anyhow.
And what are Americans supposed to think when our own politicians are more concerned about the future of Israel than they are about the future of America?
About the 19-year-old who's saying, oh, that's what our team believes.
That's who we are.
Let's be clear.
If you are a young, ambitious Democrat, it is obvious what you should do.
You should be viciously anti-Israel.
You should be out there dancing free, free Palestine.
You should be the idiot in New York giving a speech how we welcome everyone and want everyone here, even as a terrorist throws an incendiary bomb over your head, trying to murder you and everyone standing around you.
That's the path for success in the Democrat Party.
But what I worry about is in a few years, that could be the path to succeed on the right.
And I don't want to wake up in five years and find myself in a country where both major political parties are unambiguously anti-Israel and unapologetically anti-Semitic.
Now, he doesn't care if he wakes up in a country that's getting bombed.
He doesn't care if he wakes up in a country that's been invaded.
He doesn't care if he wakes up in a country whose culture and identity is completely destroyed, language destroyed, education system destroyed, economy destroyed.
That's not Ted Cruz's worry.
Ted Cruz's worry is that he wakes up in a country that isn't a slave to Israel.
That's Ted Cruz's big worry.
Yeah.
And then, and then you're told, you're, oh, shut up.
Stop talking about Israel.
It's like, we don't want to talk about Israel.
We want Israel out of our business.
We want to be out of Israel's business.
that's the entire issue here.
That's what they do.
And they all like to come after Ian Carroll now, like this new account.
I've never seen this thing before until recently pops up all the time now.
Total Israel shill.
Oh, you're American, so shut up about Israel.
What do you mean, dude?
We subsidize Israel.
My entire life existence, I have been subsidizing the country of Israel.
I think I have a right to speak freely on it because I have a First Amendment and because Israel wouldn't exist if it wasn't for me subsidizing it.
So no, I will continue to talk about Israel until they stop taking our money and stop controlling our foreign policy and stop funding our politicians.
Then we will stop talking about it.
But until then, we have every right to and we will continue to.
And eventually, though, you'll be on our side.
So just get ready for that.
Oh, stop talking about Israel.
Oh, proposed Ohio-Israel partnership draws business group support, active criticism.
Oh, yeah.
Stop talking about Israel.
Oh, yeah, they just got all these deals.
They just got all these laws written for them.
They just take all of our money and use our military.
So if you want to say I fell for it, I'm not going to push back.
I don't like saying it, but I keep hearing that oil supply won't affect the U.S., but those oil companies aren't federal.
So of course they will sell to Europe for double the price first.
Jose Navarro.
I don't think people really understand what a disaster this oil thing is yet.
They're trying everything to cover it up, but I think it's going to be bad.
Stop hitching your wagon to a politician.
Well, I don't do that, but it's good advice.
I felt bad on October 7th.
Now I'm full boom-boom Tel Aviv.
I wonder how many people.
Well, I don't think you're the only one.
MAGA is 100% backing Trump.
Real Patriots moved on.
Megan Mayfield.
Carlin said it's bullshit and it's bad for you.
It's all a big club and you ain't in it.
Cornelius Westernmost.
What are your thoughts on Professor Zhang?
I've been following his predictive history channel and along with you and Nick, he's been nailing it.
He accurately predicted Trump's around war two years ago in his classroom.
I remember that.
People keep asking me to get him on the show.
I don't know if I have access to him.
Well, let me see.
Maybe that's what I need to do.
Just start inviting guests on.
Wow.
Does he even have an official X account?
Maybe we'll work on that.
No, I think he does good coverage.
I think he does very good, analytical, conclusive coverage.
And you can't deny he was right.
San Diego passes law that you can't criticize Israel.
I saw that.
So don't talk about Israel.
All right, you keep talking about Israel.
So we're going to make it illegal to talk about Israel, but you're totally not occupied.
If Bibi is not in D.C. in one week, he's most likely passed.
Didn't Bibi do a press conference today?
Bibi did a video today.
He did a live statement today.
Maybe you don't buy that.
You know, it's not like I'm reaching some sort of a grand conclusion that it's like, wow, how did you think of that?
But this is just the truth.
I'm sorry, but this is just the truth.
The one thing Trump can do to turn this whole thing around, it's so good, I don't even want to say it.
The one thing Trump can do to turn this whole thing around is to have Netanyahu arrested.
That's it.
To have Netanyahu arrested and do a regime change in Israel and force them to have an election and force Netanyahu to go to the ICJ and to show up for his court in Israel for impeachment or whatever the hell they're doing there and then Knesset.
That is the only thing that could turn this deal around.
And that could actually bring peace.
That could stop the bombs.
The one thing that would stop the bombs is arresting Netanyahu.
The one thing that would turn this entire administration around, the entire foreign policy disaster around, the entire country around, the entire world around to get back on our side as the good guys is to bring in Netanyahu.
It's the only thing.
At this point, it's the only thing.
And who knows?
A missile might come hit my head right now for saying that.
30-odd six might go into my throat and not have an exit wound for saying something like that.
But everybody knows that's true.
You want to be even more sick.
Kamala called the genocide out and criticized BB to the point that Trump criticized her for not being pro-Israel.
I'm disgusted.
It was signs we just didn't see.
I vaguely remember that.
But Kamala, who knows?
He doesn't even know what she says half the time.
Gringo Tomato, Owen is the voice of sanity in an insane world.
Follow me at Housecracker.
Hey, thanks.
Thanks, Housecracker.
Don't be nice to the demon Tafoya.
What a bunt.
I like Michelle.
I've met her before.
She's fine, but she's, you know, boomer mind.
101k.
Have you had your name searched by certain countries on Google Trends?
I've never looked into that.
I'm probably.
I just don't really.
I don't even want to know, quite frankly.
This moment deserves a real January 6th.
I think that was from the AI bill.
Do you think there will be a Kent ticket for 2028?
The farm girl.
I don't know.
I pray for Joe Kent's safety.
Joe Kent is not suicidal.
I pray for his safety.
And if he wants to try to get involved in politics again, he has ran for office twice in the state of Washington, a blue state.
He ran as a Republican, almost one.
Joe Kent, I'd totally back him as a candidate.
Absolutely.
Employ strong for life.
As a crow, I am feeling relieved and proud to see Croatia has pulled out of Iran.
Milanovich is now facing the usual anti-Semitic backlash.
Well, you know, they can accuse everybody in the world of being an anti-Semite, and then what are they going to do?
Geezer, I mean, Israel, not Iran.
Well, we understood what you were saying.
It's anti-Semitic to notice the guy in your house rummaging through your wallet.
