The Epstein Fallout CONTINUES! Gavin NewScum Supports Child Trafficking? AND MORE!
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
For those of you listening on podcast format, what you are looking at is a tweet, or as they call them now, a post, from one Gavin Newscum.
He has forgotten the C from his word name, but it's in there somewhere if you look closely enough.
He writes, Kids running from tear gas, crying on the phone because their mother was just taken from the fields.
Trump calls me new scum, but he's the real scum.
Oh, isn't that creative?
I am rubber and you are glue.
What sticks to me bounces off me and sticks to you.
You know what it is.
Listen to this.
Do not panic.
Do not run.
Do not run.
Stay calm!
*laughing*
say take your mom The caption says, children protesters running from tear gas during immigration raid.
I'm just going to put the volume down and talk over this while we play it.
It's astonishing when you get to the bottom of this story.
Well, another replaying the same video.
What do you think they don't tell you during this video?
Put on pause.
Go back to Gavin Newsome's tweet about it.
Kids running from tear gas, crying on the phone because their mother was just taken from the fields.
Dear Gavin, be a deer and tell us what kind of fields those were.
Oh, cannabis fields?
Oh, what's that?
There were children that were there, apparently being either exploited for labor or trafficked in some other sense.
What they tell you and what they don't tell you is revelatory.
This was a raid of a cannabis production field in California, in Gavin Newsom's, California.
And don't take my word for it.
Let's go to KTLA5 reporting on all the news you need to know.
Undocumented minors found during raid of Ventura County cannabis farm.
DHS says, federal immigration agents assisted by members of the National Guard carried out raids at two Southern California cannabis farms, arresting dozens, including undocumented minors.
Undocumented minors.
You know when the Trump administration says like 335,000 illegal alien children have gone missing over the course of Biden's facilitated invasion of the country?
Whether the numbers are exact or the years are exact, hundreds of thousands of children have gone missing in the human trafficking that is the open border.
We might have found a few.
They might be illegally working, being exploited, human trafficked on a cannabis farm in Gavin, New Scums, California, including undocumented minors in an operation that drew several hundred protesters and violent clashes with officers.
We'll get to those violent clashes in a second.
The immigration sweeps, one of the glasshouse farms.
Oh, is that hilarious in a very ironic way?
Glasshouse Farms.
When Gavin calls Trump the real scum, and when Gavin accuses others of not caring about children, from his glass house doth he throw the stones.
The glasshouse farms, another one 35 miles up the street, glasshouse facility in Carpentaria unfolded simultaneously around 8.30 in the morning.
In Camellio, video from the Sky 5 showed a large federal law enforcement presence in the fields with agents detaining workers as several hundred protesters began gathering.
United States Attorney Bill Isaley confirmed the operation.
Federal agents are executing a search warrant at this marijuana farm, he wrote.
Agents have already arrested multiple individuals for impeding this operation and will continue to make arrests.
Don't interfere.
You'll be arrested with the other feds.
Yada yada.
The scene escalated around 12.35 p.m. when tear gas and less than lethal rounds were deployed into crowds of protesters who would block roadways on North and Southbound Laguna Road.
Earlier, let's see this here.
The FBI has issued a $50,000 award for information leading to the conviction of an unknown subject who appeared to fire a pistol at law enforcement near Camarillo, SRL said in a post later on on Twitter.
The shooting occurred at 7, 10, 25, 2.26 p.m.
Let you know.
All right.
Enough receipts have been shown for this story.
You want to get back to that video where Gavin Newscomb is talking about complaining about feigning faux outrage that children are being separated from their mothers while illegal aliens are being exploited for indentured servitude, aka modern day Democrat slave labor, and children are being illegally trafficked ostensibly also for slave labor.
And there happens to be the occasional dude firing a gun, apparently, at the police.
Check this out.
Let me bring this one up here.
Libs of TikTok said breaking anti-ICE protester just pulled a gun on ICE agents in California.
Well, Gavin Newsom condemned this.
ICE agents are facing a 700% increase in assaults.
This is insane.
More people need to start getting arrested for impeding ICE.
Well, this guy deserves to...
Maybe it's a Burna launcher.
The dude's launching pepper pellets at the cops.
It looks like what it looks like, and this is what it looks like.
That report.
And take a look at this video right here.
It appears a protester fired some kind of gun at some kind of gun.
Some kind of gun.
By the way, just pay attention.
Look at the people in front of him as he's shooting.
I'm going to play this again and shut my big mouth for 22 seconds.
Okay, the guy's wearing a face mask, not because of COVID, but because of tear gas.
Okay.
That report.
And take a look at this video right here.
It appears a protester fired some kind of gun at federal agents.
This happened this afternoon.
It was a really chaotic scene at the time.
A lot of smoke was being launched at the protesters.
And again, it appears a protester fired back with that weapon.
It looks like he fired at least a couple of times.
We have not heard about any agents being hurt.
How about the dude right in front of him, right there?
One, two people right.
This guy right here is lucky he didn't get shot.
If that's a real gun.
That's Libs of TikTok saying that to Gavin Newsome.
What does Gavin Newsom have to say to Libs of TikTok?
I am rubber and you are glue.
Now I'm bouncing off and sticking to you.
Of course I condemn any insult on law enforcement, you shit poster.
Now do January 6th.
Well, since we're swearing, you dipshit asshole Gavin Newscomb, did anyone fire a gun at police officers on January 6th?
Let me tell you, dipshit Newscomb, no, not one Jan 6 protester, however you view them, even brought a gun to the most violent insurrection in the history of these United States of America.
So they didn't bring a gun to shoot.
And like a true terrorist, and I say terrorist in the actual definitional sense, every time there's a terrorist attack somewhere in the world, you know, the leaders come on and say, we strongly condemn acts of terror on both sides.
Gavin Newsom, in response to what was hitherto depicted as children being separated from their mothers working in the fields, oh yeah, it was an illegal alien with underage illegal aliens apparently being exploited for slave labor on a cannabis marijuana farm.
Leave those details out, Gavin Newscomb.
When Libs of TikTok says, did you condemn this?
There's an anti-ICE protester ostensibly apparently firing a live gun at ICE agents.
He says like a true terrorist that he is, of course I condemn any assault on law enforcement, you shit poster.
Now do Jan 6.
You know what's remarkably absent from this tweet?
The condemnation of this alleged assault on a police officer.
You shit poster, Gavin Newsom.
I mean, it's like it's the ammo of terrorists.
We strongly condemn all acts of violence.
I tell you, like, I've never ratioed anybody quite as much as I've ratioed Gavin Newsom in the last 24 hours.
Of course, I condemn any assault on law enforcement.
Does not condemn this assault.
Proceeds to pivot to lies.
Who again is the shit poster, shit poster?
And what is it about these politicians who think it's all of a sudden cool to swear?
At least that wasn't from his official government account.
I'm not a politician.
And whether or not my father tells me, Viva, stop swearing on Twitter, I get to swear.
I don't really have an employer that I, really, I don't have an employer that I have to worry about disapproving of my tweets, at least for now.
Whether or not I should fear some higher power for my obscenities, I don't use the Lord's name in vain, so I think there's quite a bit of leeway for calling a shit poster a shit poster.
But when did Gavin Newsom start thinking it's cool to start swearing as a governor of a state?
Tim Walls, like they got a memo.
Chuck Schumer.
Who was the other one there?
Pocahontas.
They all think it's cool now.
This is how we're really going to appeal to the working class.
We're going to start swearing on Twitter because that's what the cool kids are doing these days.
Absolute fake news.
And Gavin Newsom is the worst of it.
So what starts off being depicted as, oh, they're tearing families apart in the fields while we are exploiting illegal aliens and illegal alien miners for labor turns out to be marijuana farm.
I suspect it's legally operating in California, but one of the reasons why people were particularly offended by Trump's proposal to vouch for illegal aliens is specifically because of this type of scenario.
Everybody knows certain industries are going to exploit illegal labor, illegal aliens, you know, doing the alleged hard work that Americans allegedly don't want to do.
Horse crap.
Pay someone enough money, they'll do anything.
And if you're not paying them enough money, the excuse is not there for then that we get to import illegals who are exploitable, don't speak the language, can be basically rendered indentured servants forever, and children.
And Gavin Newscomb, in his deluded, insane, propagandist, Democrat, Democrat mind, thinks he's the hero in all of this.
And there was a funny article that came out in the Babylon Bee, which said, Gavin Newsom declares California a sanctuary state for child slavery.
Look at his face.
That's a real face.
And there's a real human behind there.
And every now and again, I say, my goodness, Viva, you're being a little bit too hard on Gavin Newscomb.
And then Viva, I tell myself, no, you're not.
This man is living waste, who actually goes out there and demonizes the people who are trying to do good while exploiting the very people he purports to protect with pathological lies that they never retract, correct, or apologize for.
So Gavin Newscomb, you are scum.
Yes, your name is wonderfully appropriate.
From the Babylon B article, they're still funny.
In the latest front of his war against the Trump administration's immigration policies, Governor Gavin Newsom officially declared California a sanctuary state for child slavery.
The announcement followed on the heels of Newsom expressing outrage over ICE launching operations to rescue unaccompanied minor immigrants from working in California's marijuana fields, with the governor seeking to provide child slaves with a safe place to do their business.
And it's parody until next year, when I guarantee you, someone's going to do this.
I mean, they were literally, Babylon B has been ahead of the curve on all of this.
Their parody from five years ago became reality later on.
The onion used to be good before it got all high and mighty and haughty and holier than now, which is typically what happens the more someone becomes Democrat, liberal, progressive, whatever.
Let's read the whole article.
It's our duty to provide a place for child slaves to work without fear, Newsom told reporters.
Here in California, we still look to a bright future where child slavery can flourish without the dark cloud of interference from the federal government.
It's undocumented, consensual, underage labor.
Come on.
Undocumented, consensual, underage labor.
U-C-A-L.
U-C-U-L.
I will continue to stand bully on behalf of child traffickers everywhere.
As long as I'm the governor, California is the place for child slavery.
One child trafficker who spoke under the condition of remaining anonymous was relieved.
It's great to hear, he said, it's getting more and more difficult to find places where we could set up shop and really traffic some kidnapped children.
Thanks to Gavin, we can keep fighting to sell these kids for good prices to get rich off doing horrible things.
Thank you, Governor Newsom.
The Association of Child Slave Traffickers also gave Newsom declaration its enthusiastic approval.
At the time of publishing, Newsom announced that any ICE agents who agreed to stop their immigration enforcement operations would receive a free child slave.
That's funny in the ironic sense.
Other than that, everyone, how goes the day?
Viva Fry, former Montreal litigator, turned current Florida Rumbler.
It's Friday.
I know it's Friday because there's a UFC fight tomorrow night, which I'm going to watch with the kids.
There's a weigh-in, which I'm going to miss this afternoon.
And we are going to continue talking about the Epstein files or the Epstein files that don't exist, the non-existent Epstein files, the non-existent client lists, the unsigned, undated memo that was signed off on by everybody.
We're going to keep talking about it until they fix it.
But the shit has hit the fan and it's not getting better.
And I dare say, is only getting worse until someone starts changing tack and reading the room, as they say.
We'll get there in a second.
Got some other good stories.
What was the other one?
The tariffs coming out of Canada and other good stuff.
Let me just say this.
Ginger Ninja 1776.
Oh no, not Epstein again.
Just kidding.
I'm here for it.
Don't let the memory hold this.
Never forgive, never forget, hold the line.
We're getting into it.
The day started off with me going on Megan Kelly.
And I took a bit of a victory lap for my prediction in the Epstein.
No, sorry, the Diddy prosecution, which came to fruition to a T. I'm going to take a victory lap because my prediction, my assessment now for the last little while, that Bongino looked like he was being held at metaphorical gunpoint, that Patel did not look like he believed in what he was saying, that it looked like the two of them were very frustrated.
But at the end of the day, the two of them are employees of the state who answer to and abide by the orders of the DOJ.
Who runs the FBI?
Here, hold on one second.
Let me rephrase that question.
Not who runs the FBI.
Who has final authorite over the FBI?
You'll know where this answer is going, people.
It's AI overview, but I know the answer.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation operates under a complex system of oversight with various individuals and entities holding authority over different aspects of its operations.
The only reason I'm using AI for this is because I already know the answer.
Let me see.
I can't see too good.
Where's the FBI?
Where's the FBI logo right here?
Oh, yeah.
What does it say right there?
Department of Justice, right over the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
I say the criticism is understandable and I would even dare say warranted, but it needs to be fair.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation operates under a complex system, yada, yada.
Attorney General, as an agency within the U.S. Department of Justice, the FBI is responsible to the Attorney General.
Who's the Attorney General, people?
Pamela Bondi.
I mispronounced that on purpose.
Pamela Bondi.
The Attorney General is the head of the Department of Justice and the chief law enforcement officer of the federal government who reports directly to the president.
The FBI reports its findings to the U.S. attorneys across the country who fall under the Attorney General purview.
Director of the FBI, it has a director, that's Bongino.
President of the United States, President of the United States appoints FBI director.
We all know the rest of this.
DNI, that's Tulsi Gabbard, another person who arguably, but not arguably, has been sidelined by the current administration or certain actors within.
So from the beginning of sorts, I said, look, that Bartiromo interview, I've had colonoscopies where I looked calmer and more at ease than Bongino and Patel during that interview.
Cash Patel on Rogan, making it kind of clear who the FBI responds to.
So while a lot of people might have been placing the emphasis squarely on Bongino and Patel for action, inaction, fault, and whatever, from the beginning, and my trail is there, it's like, okay, I don't think they call the shots.
Who does call the shots?
And it's been an active question.
In the Butler, Pennsylvania failed assassination murder that occurred there.
Who calls the shots for charges there?
I think it's the DOJ.
Secret Service came out and sanctioned some of their employees.
We're going to get to that as well because there's conspiracy there that I didn't get to yesterday, at least from an update from Susan Crabtree.
But it's the DOJ that basically issues the orders.
Pam Bondi has been pretty clear about there being thousands of videos, yada, yada, yada.
It's on her desk.
We might have to add that to the merch.
Like when someone has something to get done that everybody's waiting to get done that they, in their heart of hearts, know they're never going to do, it's on my desk, people.
The check is in the mail.
That whole memo debacle from earlier this week, well, the proverbial shit hit the fan today with a breaking scoop from Laura Loomer.
Now, Laura got the credit that she deserves for this from Axios, who subsequently ran with the story.
And Laura has had some, you know, look, I will always remember the stories where I get burnt and that's why I always double check and triple check.
This one looks like it's accurate.
This one looks like it's the actual scoop.
And we're going to break it down right now.
Just want to make sure I bring it up here so that nobody sees my DMs, even though I know everybody already sees the DMs in the government.
Laura Loomer put up this tweet earlier today and it says scoop.
FBI Director Cash and Dan Bongino are limited with Attorney General Pam Bondi over her DOJ memo and the lack of transparency from her office regarding the Epstein files.
One thing I would add to this, we still don't know that it's even her memo, but don't worry, Todd Blanche came out earlier today after this tweet and after the Axios article.
To clarify, we'll get there.
Source tells me Dan Bongino is taking the day off today from his job as deputy director of the FBI, and there's now speculation on whether or not he'll return to his job at the FBI over his disgust with Blondie's lack of transparency and handling of the Episode files.
Pam Blondie has brought total embarrassment to President.
So we can appreciate this is reporting.
Now we've gone into editorializing, which is fine, by the way, because I tend to agree with Loomer here.
Pam Blondie has brought total embarrassment to President Trump, J.D. Vance, Dan Bongino, and Cash Patel.
She has also lied to the American people.
I'm told Cash and Bongino are furious with Blondie and the blowback she has caused them with her lack of transparency.
Cash and Dan should call for Blondie's public resignation today to save themselves and to push for a full transparency into the Epstein files.
This is an issue the American people care deeply about.
Someone needs to be fired over this.
Giving Blondie courtesy to resign is more than she deserves.
Trump should just fire her.
That was Laura's tweet.
And I basically said, look, if Laura's scoop is accurate, I'm going to have another prediction that I'll put up on the wall with my Diddy prediction.
A lot of people were shitting on Bongino and Patel, accusing Patel of being involved with Israeli intelligence, covering up the Epstein file, because apparently Patel is dating a woman who has a connection to Maria Streit from Prager U. And I'm like, holy shit, people.
Like, I will entertain even the most outlandish of conspiracy theories, but for someone to think that Cash Patel is compromised because he's dating a woman who has a connection to Prager U and Maria Streit, by the way, both institutions that I have never had the slightest bit of issue with.
I've actually been on Marissa Streit's channel a couple of times.
I've been invited for the book reading with Michael Knowles.
Prager U has a unapologetic pro-Israel stance.
That that's the connection that you're going to hang this entire conspiracy on.
Patel is going to ruin his life, ruin his career, running cover because he's dating a girl that is friends with Maria Stride and affiliated with Prager U. If you want to go that angle, the better angle is probably just that Susie Wiles, Trump's chief of staff, who picks the staff, who gives the access, who controls his administration to some extent, you know, apparently assisted Netanyahu with his election campaign in 2020.
That would be a more plausible, more linear, more direct connection.
But people were shitting on Patel.
They were shitting on Bongino.
And the question was always, do they even have the authority to make these decisions, prosecutorial decisions?
Do they have the authority to decide to open up or reopen investigations?
I don't think so.
I didn't think so.
Not entirely clear, so you can't blame everybody.
But the bottom line is, I've been saying it for a while now.
Bongino is now an employee of the state.
He's not an independent analyst commentator.
Patel is now an employee of the state.
He's no longer an independent analyst commentator author.
And so when you have both of them not subscribing to, but, you know, saying things like, based on the file, as we have it, inherited from a criminal FBI, it looks like Epstein killed himself and here's the 10 hours of footage.
Okay, you can choose to call them liars or you can choose to call them employees or you can choose to call them cowards because if they don't believe what they're saying, then they should resign and yada yada.
Well, we might be at that point right now.
Now, what the hell is I getting at?
The Axios article.
Okay, here we go.
Listen to this.
The Axios article, by the way, just we can highlight this.
Someone leaked an unsigned, undated memo to Axios.
I don't consider myself to be a Trump sycophant, nor am I a groupie, nor am I anyone who's going to twist himself into knots to explain away the unexplainable.
That memo, I said, was absolutely atrocious.
How is it unsigned?
How is it undated?
How does it contradict not just what Dan Bongino and Patel have said for the last few years?
They didn't sign it.
It contradicted what Pam Belondi said a month ago, five months ago.
She didn't sign it.
Undated, unassigned.
And like the letterhead was all, it looked like someone had just recently edited together, leaked to Axios, and then uploaded to the DOJ website the next day, as best I could tell.
That's an effing debacle.
And the people who I would call the sycophants, you know, I won't name any names, but there's some people who are, they almost appear to be like, I'm not talking about big names.
People were accusing me of having rolled on a fake document.
Like, Viva, you idiot, you traitor, that's a fake document.
I was like, first of all, it's on the DOJ website.
Second of all, if it were a fake document, why hasn't the FBI repudiated it?
Third of all, a week late and a buck short, Todd Blanche comes out and says, I worked closely with FBI Director Cash and FBI Director Bongino on the joint FBI and DOJ memo regarding the Epstein files.
All of us signed off on the contents of the memo and the conclusions stated in the memo.
The suggestion by anyone that there was any daylight between the FBI and the DOJ leadership on this memo's composition and release is patently false.
Hold on a second.
What does that mean?
The expression, the suggestion by anyone that there was any daylight between the FBI and DOJ leadership on this memo's composition and release is patently false.
I don't know what that expression means, but I presume it means the fact that any disagreement or any discord.
This is what Todd Blanche said today.
This is after five days, six days that this memo has been released, where I was taking shit on Monday by allegedly having relied on a fake document.
They're now, to some extent, taking ownership of it.
Except, you know, first of all, and again, I'm not shitting on Todd Blanche, period.
This is an administration that needs to succeed.
And that's what the purpose of the criticism is.
The way this has been rolled out, this debacle could very well leave a lingering stain on this administration's Trump second term, the midterms coming up, and 2028.
And I said to Todd Blanche, it's kind of cool when these, you know, I said this and I'm call me a sycophant because I'm being polite.
And somebody like, why are you being polite?
They're covering up.
I'm being polite because they need to fix this.
And I'm not being an ass because I'm not trying to destroy Trump's term at all.
On the contrary.
And I say this with the utmost of respect without any snark recess.
The entire confusion stems from the fact that literally nobody signed off on the undated And unsigned memo.
Here he says, We all signed off on it.
No, you didn't.
No, you didn't.
Nobody signed off on it.
How could Pam Bondi sign off on that when it contradicts her memo from February?
Nobody signed off on it, nor did anyone take responsibility for it.
It was leaked to Axios and quietly uploaded to the DOJ website the next day.
This is specifically the origin of the confusion and controversy.
Other than Caroline Levitt's brief comment on the memo, no one has even assumed authorship of it or presented it officially to such a bizarre point that people were hypothesizing that the memo was fake.
Perhaps a press conference to discuss the memo and its findings and not a tweet one week later after the controversy has gone viral.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
And right now we are in the obesity of a cure that is needed.
A press conference.
By the way, when Todd Blanche is saying, we all agree eye to eye to see this, then you all sign off on it.
And then the argument, well, we all agree eye to eye on it.
What role?
I mean, I know the director of the FBI has got a powerful voice, but he doesn't have signing authority for certain things.
The deputy director, even less so.
What would it look like if they said, we're not okay with this memo?
Don't put our names on it.
What would it look like?
What would happen if what Todd Blanche was saying was actually not entirely accurate?
What would happen is you might have people saying, I got to get out of this.
You're destroying not just our reputations as analysts and everything we've built our names up for.
You're compromising this administration and the potential success of this administration.
I didn't get a response from Todd Blanche, but I would do the press conference.
I'll make you a list of questions that I had.
I think about the same questions that I tweeted out at the FBI a little while ago.
Even if Epstein killed himself without, you know, check-ins, taken off suicide watch, yada, yada, yada.
Maybe there's good answers for it.
No client list.
Who are the unindicted co-conspirators?
Trafficking, the videos of CSAM.
Was that Epstein produced or was that Epstein uploaded?
If it was Epstein uploaded, who produced it?
Is there an investigation into the provenance of that CSAM, which is child sexual abuse material?
And so now we're back to square one a week later.
Looks like Laura Loomer's scoop is accurate, and it looks like the damage control is not really controlling the damage.
This is Axios.
And by the way, I made sure that Axios in their article gave credit to Laura Loomer because sometimes some journalists don't.
Scoop.
Bongino's clash with A.G. Bondi over handling of the Epstein files.
Listen to this.
FBI director deputy, FBI deputy director Dan Bongino took a day off from work Friday after clashing at the White House with Attorney General Pam Bondi over their handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files for sources familiar with the conflict told Axios.
You know, I always wonder, like, what would Laura Loomer's source be?
If there was active fighting, like borderline public within the administration, staffers would have seen it.
You know, worth checking schedules to see if this was an unplanned day off or if this was a planned day off work, but set that aside.
Why it matters?
Because it's a big fucking deal.
Todd Belanch, Axios might be the shite of shite propaganda, but you might still be able to read it and appreciate why it matters.
Why it matters?
Not because the Trump bases are a bunch of conspiracy theorists, because there is a conspiracy here.
And the way this has been dealt with has done nothing but exacerbate whatever conspiracy theories people had, legitimate and far-fetched.
Dispute erupted Wednesday amid the fallout of the administration's walking back its claims about Epstein by determining the convicted sex offender didn't have a celebrity client list.
They put it in quotes.
He wasn't murdered in his cell in 2019.
Bongino didn't come to work Friday, leading to some insiders to believe he had quit.
But administration officials say he's still on the job, even as the internal tension over the Epstein case continues.
A source close to Bongino said he ain't coming back.
Zoom in at the center of the argument, surveillance video.
Forget the surveillance video.
Forget the missing minute.
I'm not saying this to cover it up.
We're not dealing with freaking ninja murder, like the one minute that was missing.
Someone sneaks in and murders Epstein.
From my understanding, there's some question as to whether or not it's even the right cell.
From my understanding, there may have even been, if you watch the footage, you might be able to see people periodically or guards periodically checking in on what's his face?
Epstein.
Forget the video.
That video is damning one way or the other.
If it's doctored, it's damning.
If it's not doctored, it's damning.
How he ended up alone for sufficient periods of time, taken off suicide watch with extra bed linens that allowed him to kill himself.
That's a conspiracy.
I'd have my questions about that, Mr. Blanche, Madame Bondi.
The missing minute, forget it.
Bongino, who had pushed Epstein conspiracy theories as a MAGA-friendly podcast before becoming appointed to the FBI, had found the video and touted it publicly and privately at proof that Epstein hadn't been murdered.
Moot.
Irrelevant.
If he killed himself, that's a conspiracy as well.
Conclusions shared by FBI Director Cash Patel, another conspiracy theorist turned insider, angered many in Trump's base.
Criticism that increased after Axios first reported the release of the video and a related memo.
After the video's missing minute was discovered, Bongino was blamed internally for the oversight, according to three sources.
Can you imagine this?
You know what I look at when I see this?
Like, someone didn't think this was going to be a big problem.
It became a big problem despite warnings.
And now everyone's trying to say, face and throw another person under the bus.
The missing minute?
I mean, it's going to raise some eyebrows.
I would argue, I'll accept the explanation.
I'll still stick to mine.
How did he get alone with extra linens for such a long period of time?
Set that aside.
Okay.
Two sources familiar with Bongino's position say he was increasingly displeased with Bondi's handling of the Epstein's file because she had publicly over-promised and under-delivered disclosions about an Epstein, quote, client list, end quote, that apparently never existed.
The intrigue.
MAGA influencer Laura Loomer, a Bondi critic, first reported Friday on X that Bongino left work and that he and Patel were furious with the way Bondi handled the case.
Would you not be furious with Bondi?
If they say, A, you can't release this memo.
Okay, if the conclusion is that he killed himself, fine, we can explain that.
That there was no blackmail.
There's documented blackmail of Epstein blackmailing Bill Gates with That 20-year-old allegedly that he was having an affair with.
There's documented blackmail.
If I'm in there and I'm Patel or Bongino, I'm A, frustrated.
I'm a peacock that wants to fly.
They fly, by the way, people.
And I'm livid with the fact that they're not listening to me and I don't have the final say.
And there are some people who were born to be bosses and others that were born to be employees.
And there's no judgment to that.
My father always said growing up, you got your finders, minders, grinders, and hold on one second.
What was the other one?
Finders, minders, and grinders.
That's what it was.
I think there's only three.
The finders go out and find the business.
The minders, whatever.
And then the grinders are the ones who work daily.
Not everybody is born to be a boss, and not everybody is going to survive as an employee.
Bongino is not going to, in my view, was not born to be an employee, was not born to be a subordinate.
Yes, he'll follow mission orders.
I know that, but you get to a point in your life where you're no longer, you've outgrown employee status.
Patel as well.
Can you imagine how livid they would be knowing full well where this would go and how it would go?
Let me see this here.
Some Trump advisors have criticized Bondi, but Trump loves Pam and thinks she's great, a senior White House official say.
Those witnessing the Wednesday clash between Bondi and Bongino in the White House were Patel, White House Chiefs of Staff Susie Wiles, and Deputy Chief of Staff Taylor Budowich.
This is cool.
My question is, who does Pam Bondi answer to take directions from?
And that's where I would go with this.
But I put out the tweet, you know, is she doing a good job?
Is it incompetence?
Is it malice?
Is it something else?
And it was 50-50 between incompetence and malice with 8-10% saying she's doing a fine job.
Those must be Democrats.
Pam said her piece.
Dan said his piece.
It didn't end on friendly terms, said one person briefed on the heated discussion.
Bongino left angry.
The fact is, Dan was for releasing the information with the video and had no problem until he got heat online, a senior administration official told Axios.
Bongino found the video with the missing minute.
He vouched for it after a thorough review, he said, and he thought this would end the matter.
When that didn't work, he lost his mind and ran out of the DC.
Said a pro-Bongino source.
This is like high school, man.
Dan is not the bad guy here.
He shouldn't take the fall.
The big picture, the blowup involving Trump's senior law enforcement officials showed just how much the administration has been rocked by its handling of the Epstein case.
You might want to look at that, Todd.
At different times, Bondi, Benjino, Patel have complained to each other that they are...
Zoom out, Bongino, a former Secret Service agent, joined the administration after gaining prominence as a conservative podcaster with regular appearances on Fox News.
What they're saying.
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche waited in Friday morning saying he worked closely with Patel and Bongino on the joint FBI and DOJ memo regarding the Epstein files.
All of us signed off on the contents of the memo.
We read that.
You imagine what that, yeah, we all, we all talked about it.
And apparently Bongino and Patel, or at least Bongino, said, don't issue that memo.
It's going to mess things up.
And now you got Todd Blanche saying, no, we all agreed on it.
We all agreed on it.
Shut your mouth, Bongino.
Everyone's good with it.
And everyone in MAGA, and I dare say even some in Biden camp, are like, nobody believes the findings of that memo, at least not based on the evidence that has not been provided to date.
So that's where it's at today.
And by the rumorings, Bongino is contemplating, he either left and is contemplating not coming back.
And there may be the ultimatum that Bongino goes or Bondi goes.
Whether or not this would have happened with Matt Gates, methinks it wouldn't have.
And if there's anyone to blame in this, who has the decision-making power, it's Bondi, who came out on Fox News and said, in response to the question, the DOJ is thinking of releasing the list of Epstein clients.
Is that really going to happen?
It's on my desk.
Bondi, the one who wrote the memo to Patel saying, what the F is the SDNY FBI field office doing, not responding to requests from you and me, seemingly moving boxes, potentially destroying evidence.
We're going to get the list of Epstein's clients.
That was Bondi.
Nobody else.
And then you come up with a memo, unsigned, undated, leaked to Axios.
My goodness, if you wanted to, if you were trying to compromise this administration, what would you be doing differently?
That's where it's at today.
We'll see who comes back to work on Monday and we'll see if Bondi gets the axe.
There is, I won't say a movement online, but there is a call to axe the Bondi, to fire Bondi.
Let me see.
It was in response to an interview that What's Her Face just gave, Susie Wiles.
And I'm like, I'm watching an interview from Susie Wiles.
I'm like, when the hell was the last time Susie Wiles gave an interview?
And you go into the replies on this.
Let me see if this isn't.
Here we go.
We'll go into the replies in a second.
Let me just play the video for you, which I also thought was another just terrible, at least a terrible clip.
Let's hear what Susan, Susie, Susie Wiles has to say here.
I was sitting in a cabinet meeting one day, and they do tend to go on a while.
And so I was jotting down in my notebook how I saw the cabinet.
And these numbers are wrong, but order of magnitude correct.
You know, five published authors, seven billionaires, 11 lawyers, a couple of minorities, a Democrat or two.
It is an amazing group of people that he put together.
And what Bobby Kennedy has done.
I agree with what Bobby Kennedy has done.
Am I the only one who cringed when she said a couple of minorities?
Like she's talking about authors, accomplishments of success, billionaires, accomplishments of success.
A couple of minorities, like the success is being a minority.
And who's she talking?
If I'm the minority in that room that she's talking about, I'm feeling really, really dirty and really, really demeaned and degraded.
Like, we got a bunch of lawyers, a couple of billionaires, a Jew who's like, Is that how you saw me the entire time?
Holy crap, apples.
First of all, who is getting through my Do Not Disturb?
That's because I'm not on Do Not Disturb.
Cup billionaires, a short, stocky Jew who's got nice hair.
It's like, holy crap, I never knew that's how you saw it.
Okay, here's moving past it.
You know, president took some criticism, not so much for Bobby, but what has he run before?
And he has recruited a team that's unparalleled.
He's doing great.
Brooke Rollins is doing great.
Linda McMahon has an impossible job that she's done with great grace and achieved a lot.
Marco Rubio was born for this and has just been quickly assimilated over here in his NSC position.
It really, there's not one I would not, who I would say is not a complete success in what they're doing in their area.
I was sitting here.
So set aside the cringe of the two minorities.
What do you think the replies were to that?
There's not one that I would say is doing bad.
Let me go see here.
Let me go see here.
Did anyone else know?
This is what's amazing.
Joe Rogan says, ghost, post in ghost and don't read the chat.
Don't read the comments.
Reading the comments is sometimes very useful.
Read this here.
My trust for this woman and a lot of people in this admin and now even Trump after the other day is damn near gone.
Trump has either watered down, completely ignored, or now lied about a lot of the promises he made to MAGA.
It's a sad wish that, no, no, it's a sad wish I didn't feel this way, but after that cabinet meeting and Bondi, I do.
Did anyone else know that Susie Wiles worked on Benjamin Netanyahu campaign?
Now it's all starting to make sense.
She has to go.
For all the replies naming Bondi, she is following orders from the top.
Trump owns the Epstein debacle.
And there were a lot of calls for Bondi to resign.
And it is true, the buck stops with the president, but the information needs to get to the president.
And if it needs to get to the president, either through a responsible team or the president listening.
And we know that this president does listen, but we also know that there are gatekeepers to this president.
And you can not bypass the gatekeepers, but you hope that there are people within the administration that are bypassing the gatekeepers to get the info to Trump.
And I think Trump needs to understand that the Epstein debacle has been atrocious.
It's not going away.
And at this point, whether it's grotesque incompetence or malice on the part of Bondi, it looks like it might be an ultimatum between, I don't know, Cash and or Bongino or Blondie.
One thing is for certain, at the very least, it's grotesque incompetence because Bondi's DOJ continuing to pursue certain cases to the Supreme Court, not withdrawing certain cases, pursuing Biden-era persecutions, prosecutions.
Bitcoin Jesus, Roger Veer, Douglas Mackey, Ricky Vaughn.
I mean, this is Pam Bondi pursuing these cases and these prosecutions, which were Biden-era political persecutions.
At the very least, incompetent.
So all that to say, you could accuse me of being partial to Rumble.
I am because they're good.
You can accuse me of being biased to Bongino.
I am because I like him.
But I can only imagine how frustrating it would be if I'm right and Bongino has actually been in a position where he can't talk his mind anymore, where he's overrun and what's the word I'm looking for, overrided by Bondi and other powerful forces who are not listening to what they're saying.
And he has to go along with it because he's an employee of the state.
And by resigning, it could compromise Trump's presidency.
But by pursuing this devastatingly destructive path, it could also compromise Trump's presidency.
That is what you call between be, gosh darn it, I just screwed up the last line of this.
That is what you call getting stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Serenity now.
R.B. Ham on our LevaBarnesLaw.locals.com community.
Don't you find it a bit weird that Cash Patel's Israeli girlfriend, 23 years his junior, is most likely his Mossad handler?
First of all, she can't be 23 years younger than him.
Hold on.
How old is Cash Patel?
He's 45.
She's 22.
How old is Cash Patel's girlfriend?
Meet Cash Patel's girlfriend.
She's 26.
So she's only 19 years younger than him.
And some of you might call me a pervert for saying only 19.
Yeah, that's a big discrepancy.
My best friend's parents were 20 years apart.
Dude also lived in 99.
His wife was, his wife, my best friend's mother, 20-year difference.
That difference over a long enough period of time becomes nothing.
That she's a Masad.
If she's Mossad, you know, I'd be concerned that they'd be relaying information to a foreign government.
But I tell you, I've addressed that.
That's not where I would put my stock, or at least my qualms.
Ginger Ninja says, Viva, don't brag about how calm you are during bum inspections.
Dude, they jacked me up.
I've told this story to our locals community.
They jacked me up on whatever they jack you up on to do the colonoscopy.
I was wide awake and looking at what I thought was like a video game or something out of Star Wars.
It was my rectal side.
Paul Rose76 says, after hearing Trump say, who cares about Epstein, move on, I don't think you can put all the blame on the DOJ FBI.
Aren't they just following orders?
They are.
But I think to some extent, my theory about that, it's Trump trying to take ownership of the situation, that is a debacle.
And that's how he thinks it's the best way to deal with it.
And I think he's wrong.
Paula, thank you.
Then we got Jingra Ninja.
Why do you act like Cash and Bongina?
Bon Gino don't have jobs.
Their jobs shouldn't even exist, if you're correct.
But you're not correct.
They can open investigations and gather evidence, not ask Bondi.
Hold on.
They can.
I think they can open.
Let's just hear.
I'm not going to go to Grok.
Can the FBI, let's say, recommend charges?
I want to start with that.
And I know the recommend charges.
Yes, the FBI can recommend charges to the Department of Justice.
As an investigative agency, the FBI gathers evidence and conducts inquiries.
Well, then I guess we're going to have to see what they did or did not recommend.
But set that aside.
Roostang over in our locals community.
Let's see.
Wiles and Trump favorite AG Bondi is being criticized by Dan Bonji.
Know the result.
Maybe Dan can start his podcast again, as Barnes suggested.
Yeah, no, no, first of all, Barnes has been going hard, but Barnes, I think, goes hard on everybody in the hopes that somebody wises up in here.
But we'll see.
You know, the funny thing is, I was on with Owen Schroer, Infowars, earlier today.
And you're like, for people to say like, oh, yeah, this is exactly what Dan wanted, a cushy government job and Patel, horseshit.
And it's not that they left and made personal sacrifice, that it means they can do no wrong.
If there's a person in this equation for whom a government job and cushy future in government life would be appealing and would be an upgrade, it would be Pam Bondi.
For Patel and Bongino, it's a downgrade for the rest of their lives, financially, and clout-wise, if that matters.
Let me see here.
We got Jay Ash62.
Viva, I hope you are going to the student action with Charlie Kirk this weekend in Florida.
What is going on there is epic.
These kids are on fire.
Awesome speakers as well.
Jay Ash, I'm not.
Didn't even hear about it.
My mother-in-law is in town for damn near a month, so I don't know.
Oh, I can't.
It depends when it is.
I'll DM Charlie.
Nobody invited me and I'm not insulted, but I'll DM Charlie, see when it is.
I don't think I can go because I got to go somewhere tomorrow.
That's a few hour drive away.
Let me bring this one up here so we can see the beautiful purple of crap.
Did I do it?
I did.
It's right here.
Bada bing, bada boom.

That's another thing.
Like the timing of all of this.
You know, Iran strikes with Israel ceasefire.
Shut up about Epstein, people.
Then Netanyahu, who comes, spends an extra day.
Shut up about Epstein, people.
Here's an unsigned memo.
Go home.
Nothing to see here.
Snooty Mims, I made a super chat about, I made a super chat shout out for your great children's book, Louis the Lobster on Narodric, FNT.
Also, King of Biltong has delicious and healthy Biltong.
God bless.
Thank you very much.
Oh, what children's book is that?
Are you talking about Louis the Lobster?

Oh, yes, yes, yes.
Well, hold on.
Stop.

Okay, and then there was one more, and then we're going to move on with another topic of today.
Hold on a second, Epstein Follow continues.
Thank you very much, by the way.
Snooty Mims.
Paul Rose76, why did Bannon spend 15 hours in 2019 coaching Epstein on how to handle interviews of his crimes?
Is Trump protecting him?
I have never heard that before.
Let me see what Grock has to say about that.
Did Bannon, let's just say, train Epstein on interrogation?
Let's ask a totally disjunct question and see what it gives us.
I have never heard that.
There's no definitive evidence that Stephen Bannon trained Jeffrey Epstein specifically on interrogation.
However, reports indicate Bannon coached Epstein in 2019 for a potential 60-minutes interview that never happened, recording over 15 hours of interview.
According to Michael Wolfe's book, Too Famous, Bannon advised Epstein on how to present himself publicly, urging him to stick to his message, that he was not a pedophile, avoid racist theories, and appear, quote, engaging, natural, and sympathetic.
Bannon confirmed the sessions, but denied media training, claiming the footage was for an 8 to 10 hour documentary exposing Epstein's ties to global elites.
Hold on.
So let me understand the explanation.
I'd have to see what Bannon's actual explanation was.
He confirmed the sessions, denied the media training, claiming the footage was for an 8 to 10 hour documentary exposing Epstein's ties to global elites.
Coaching session focused on media presentation, not interrogation resistance.
Claims on X suggest Bannon helped Epstein avoid incriminating answers, but these are speculative and lack corroboration.
No sources explicitly link Bannon to training Epstein for interrogations, and the footage remains unsealed, leaving the full context unclear.
Always approach such claims critically.
Thanks for the advice, Grok.
You suck.
They could unseal a bunch of stuff.
That would certainly resolve some of the confusion.
All right.
Well, that's the latest on Epstein.
I'm going to be right again, by the way.
I was going through my tweets on this.
I'm going to be right.
And I demand public recognition for when I'm right.
Okay, so hold on a second.
I think we got this.
Yeah, we got this.
Let me go back here and make sure that I'm not missing anything before we get into the next story, which is going to be terrorist people.
And another one.
Oh, yeah, we got two fun stories left.
Apparently, two journalists who were sued for defamation and found guilty for calling Macron a born-a-man have been exonerated on appeal.
You know what?
Let's do that right now.
Another one where I think Candace Owens might be right.
Yes, she's made some mistakes.
Stalin was not Jewish.
Although you don't have to be a Jew to be Jewish.
So if he were sufficiently communist, you could call him Jew-ish, but a bing, but a boom.
I'm joking.
Candace Owens is thoroughly convinced that Brigitte Macron, was born a man, is a transgender person.
Why are you gay?
You are transgender?
How do I say?
Pepe.
Candace is thoroughly convinced that Brigitte Macron was born a man, took over the identity of her brother, and that the borderline and questionably illegal pedophilic relationship that she had with Emmanuel Macron, who was her 15-year-old student at the time, they fell madly in love when she was, what, 40-someod, that she was a man also, which makes this even more scandalous.
I've followed Candace's pieces on this, whether or not you think it's newsworthy.
It certainly caused me to question the veracity of the claim.
There was an episode where Candace was talking about how she got a letter from lawyers representing Emmanuel and Brigitte Macon telling her to shut up or they might sue her for defamation, which pissed Candace Owens off.
And also, when someone threatens you for defamation for saying you were born a man, dude, I'm not sensitive.
You can call me a woman.
You could suggest I was born a woman, that I have a micro-penis.
I will never sue you for defamation because it's not something I could give a sweet bugger all about.
Some people say, who cares if she was born a man?
Who cares if she is a man?
I say that entire thing is the French government, the French media covering up pedophilia at the very least.
If it happens to be transgender pedophilia, well, then we got another angle to this.
But this is what happened coming out of W-I-O-N weon.
And I looked it up on other sources to make sure it's accurate.
Good faith.
French court clears two of defamation in Brigitte Macron.
Gender case.
Reigniting Born a man theory.
How it begon.
All right.
A French court of appeals has overturned a ruling that required two women to pay damages to France's first lady.
Well, is she a lady?
To France's first.
Okay.
Brigitte Macon and her brother over a viral conspiracy theory falsely alleging she was born a male.
How would you just take that word out?
If it's a conspiracy alleging that she was born a male, it's a theory.
The court said that the pair acted, quote, in good faith, end quote, and dismissed the previous judgment, including financial penalties.
In September 2023, a French lower court ruled in Brigitte Macon's favor, ordering the two women to pay 8,000 euros in damages to her and 5,000 to her brother.
My goodness, 50,000 is that's only translated.
Holy crap, apples.
I remember when the Euro was much more powerful.
To her brother.
The court had found the allegations to be defamatory and invasive of privacy.
Now the order by the Paris Appeals Court reversing that decision and stating that the defendants made their claims under a belief they were acting in the public interest has sparked widespread debate over the gender of Brigitte Macron.
The sex.
The sex.
The court canceled the damages, though it did not provide further legal justification for the reasoning.
The allegations.
Controversy began in 2021 when Amandine Roi, a self-described spiritual medium, hosted Natasha Ray, an independent journalist on her YouTube channel.
During the four-hour video, Ray claimed to have uncovered a, quote, state lie, end quote, alleging that Brigitte Macron was originally a man named Jean-Michel Tronyot, who had transitioned before marrying French president Emmanuel Macron.
They discussed supposed gender transition surgeries and revealed personal information about Brigitte's real brother, Jean-Michel Tronyot, further fueling the false narrative.
I love how they have to say the false narrative yet again.
Don't want to get sued there now, do you, W-I-O-N?
Brigitte Macron and conspiracy.
She's 72, has long faced online disinformation and conspiracies, often centered around the fact that she's a quarter of a fucking century older than Brigitte, than Emmanuel Macron, that they met when he was a 15-year-old student and she was 15, 15, 25, 35, 39?
Is that right?
Yeah, 39.
Your old teacher.
Disgusting.
I mean, it's disgusting.
Tiffany Ozette Brigitte's daughter labeled him as grotesque harassment.
The first lady has never spoken in public directly about these rumors, but has responded to the conspiracy theories with firm legal action and measured public dignity.
Well, expect that rumor to get a little hairier, people.
Have you ever seen the evidence?
Let me see if I can pull up the evidence.
Brigitte Macron is a man.
It's, I mean, it's.
I'm not sure that we're going to find it.
The expose from that independent journalist who only stumbled on the story by accident is actually quite amazing.
Let's just, we'll pull up one here.
Let me see if there's it.
Francis Macroin, allegedly born a man.
They had the facial recognition.
Owens, this is citing Owens here.
Look at this.
This is fantastic.
Ooh.
France, Mac, wife, allegedly born a man, conspiracy theory reignited.
When is this from?
January of this year.
Renewed controversy comes as President Macon and his wife continue to face public scrutiny over their 24-year age difference.
Candace Owens sparked outrage, doubling down on her baseless conspiracy theory that she's a man.
Yada, yada, yada.
Owens took to social media Tuesday to reassert the controversial claim she had outlined hours earlier on her podcast, accusing the French first lady of having transitioned from a man named Jean-Michel Treignot.
This bizarre assertion, which is rooted in a widely debunked far-right conspiracy, raised eyebrows.
Owens presented the theory as a revelation during the episode of the Candace Owens podcast, where she claimed that Bégit Macon transitioned at the age of 30.
She suggested the first lady did not give birth to her three children and alleged that her first husband, a retired banker who died in 2020, never existed.
Owens amplified the theory on X, stake her entire personal reputation on the idea.
The claim stems from a far-right magazine, Fais et Document, Facts and Documents, which in 2017 published a false report asserting that Brigitte Macron had undergone gender transition surgery.
That theory was reignited last month when Emmanuel Macron's stepdaughter, Triffanie Osiere, spoke out against rumors suggesting her mother was once-born male.
In a poignant interview with Parimatch, Osier described how she was deeply affected by the conspiracy, noting, I have concerns about the level of society when I hear what is circulating on social media's networks about my mother being a man.
And then you got Owens comparing the nose, the smile, the tuft of hair.
I'm not sure what we're looking at there.
It's not, I mean, it looks definitely not the craziest thing.
But anyways, all that to say now, the threats of defamation lawsuits just took a hit for those who sincerely Believe it and believe they have the evidence to substantiate it.
What do we got here?
Bondi needs to be fired.
Brett Tolman should be AG.
That is from Davarico.

All right, one more story, which is Canada.
Chris Pavlovsky, who's lost a bit of the filter, but still polite.
I have lost the filter and am sassy and rude.
I have yet to see Chris, I think, I have yet to see Chris swear on Twitter.
I've yet to see Chris be overtly and unnecessarily mean to someone, even if they deserved it.
But he certainly is getting a little saucé in the political sense because Trump has now announced more tariffs on Canada and they freaking deserve them.
It freaking deserves it.
Canadians don't deserve them, but alas, Canadians get the government they elect and they elected the liberals and they didn't have enough of 10 years of liberal destruction.
And another one where I was right on point, criticizing Pierre Poiliev, predicting he was going to backfire and destroy him.
He was going to lose that campaign.
I took shit left, right, and center on from my Canadian counterparts, especially the so-called conservatives who don't like reality, vindication.
I would rather have not been vindicated.
Chris Pavlovsky tweets, posts, X's, truths, whatever this is.
Truth is, Canada deserves tariffs.
Canada does not treat U.S. dairy farmers fairly.
They don't allow U.S.-owned banks to become Schedule I banks in Canada, and they block U.S. telecompanies to compete for Canadian spectrum.
Canadians need to call a spade a spade.
President Trump is right.
Pavlovsky's right on the business front, and I'm right on the national security front.
Canada deserves tariffs because they're not securing their border, because they're allowing anyone and everyone into the country who are, for whatever the reason, quite a few of them on terror watch lists who then try to get into the states, which is a national security threat to the states.
And they don't treat America fairly.
They have an exploitive relationship with America, which has come to a head, if only because they haughtily, arrogantly, and snootily refused to fix the border and stop with the fentanyl.
Instead, denying that there's a fentanyl problem, even though Vancouver is the fentanyl capital of the world, 600 and some odd Canadians are dying monthly from opioid overdoses, 80% of which is from fentanyl.
And Canada is the epicenter of super lab for fentanyl, making more fentanyl than could kill all of Canada, clearly for external international exportation.
But no, no, only 1% of the fentanyl is nabbed at the border is nabbed on the Canadian border.
Yeah, because there's no freaking military-style checkpoint system at the Canadian border.
It's an honor system.
And the border down in Mexico is a military-style border.
From Full Tune magazine, July 11th.
Wall Street sees 35% Canada tariff as just a negotiation tactic.
Tariffs are Trump's hammer for every nail, whether or not that's You elected him, people.
And freaking name.
Pierre Polyev refused to go on Rogan, refused to go on Theo Vaughan, refused to do podcasts.
But it wouldn't have changed anything, Viva.
It's a good thing that he didn't, because if he had gone on those, it would have been an even bigger liberal majority co-party, you freaking denying reality boobs.
I didn't want to be right.
The new tariffs are set to go into effect August 1st.
Trump implemented that fresh deadline after the original 90-day pause issued in April expired on July 9th.
This week, the White House sent letters to multiple countries, including major trading partners like South Korea, Japan, informing them of their recent tariff hikes, ushering in a renewed focus on the U.S.'s global trade relations.
Tariffs are Trump's hammer for every nail that he thinks need fixing, said Dave Bianco, chief investment officer at DWS Americas.
You might be right.
Hey, if it works, there's no point getting more complicated than needed.
Equal to Trump's predilection for tariffs has been his administration's unwillingness to enforce them.
This might bring with it its own strategic negotiation problems, but we'll see.
Keep playing with fire.
See when he enforces them, people.
In fact, markets are brushing off the latest round of tariff back and forths on the assumption the U.S. will continue to hold off on collecting them.
The base case expectation is that major trading partners that are perceived to be negotiating in good faith will receive extensions to accommodate additional talks.
Yep.
Keep playing with fire.
And then when the hammer comes down on the proverbial nail to follow through on the analogy, go home to mama and cry.
U.S. and Canada had been in talks for new trade agreements since last month with the aim of reaching a deal by July 21st.
Most recent tariff rate is viewed by some as just a negotiation tactic.
Yada, yada, yada.
Fears that the latter was the case ultimately led to a market sell-off in April.
Administration's communication on tariffs has been erratic, to say the least.
This has contributed to a lot of noise around the signal and markets are getting a bit numb, said Christian Chan, chief investment officer.
Well, that's very good, I guess.
So you could continue making the very real threats.
Markets won't tank because of the threats.
And then if you end up imposing them, c'est la vie, as we say in Canada.
With this new 35% tariff rate, Canada is increasingly subjected to a sprawling web of tariffs.
Earlier this year, U.S. instituted 25% tariff on all goods not covered by U.S.-Mexico-Canada trade agreement.
Trump signed in November 2018.
Canada also faces the same sectoral tariffs for the rest of the world does.
25% on automobiles, 50% tariffs on steel.
Yada, yada, yada.
Canada energy imports face a 10% tax.
Canada levies its own.
Yada yada.
I mean, it's just, it goes on.
There will be little impact on the U.S. or Canadian economy if it is likely resolved by summer.
Canada's latest economic report released Friday far outpaced analyst expectations.
The economy added about 83,000 jobs in June compared to the forecast that expected the lab market to be roughly flat.
However, Canada does face 6.9% unemployment, which exceeds the 4.1% rate in the U.S. But that was still an outperformance as economists had expected an unemployment rate of 7.1%.
Employment of 6.9%.
This is smashing success.
What's the labor participation rate in Canada?
I'd be more curious to know that number.
In fact, in my limited economic understanding, I'm fairly certain that unemployment rate without comparing it to the labor force rate is a incomplete number.
But yeah, things are great in Canada, everybody.
6.9%.
That was a close one.
We were expecting 7.1% compared to 4.1% in the States.
And Chris Pavlovsky is right.
Canada is getting tariffs.
It deserves the tariffs.
It needs to fix up its effing border, tighten down on crime.
But why would it when by all accounts, A, it denies there's a problem, and B, it might be partially integrated in the problem.
Tim Houston, NS, father, husband, member of the MLA, member of a Legislative Assembly, Premier of Nova Scotia, tweets as follows.
Canadians are again attempting to wade through another round of U.S. threats, misinformation, and foolish economics.
Do tell us, Nova Scotia, go ahead and lecture Trump.
We have been here before.
In fact, the bullying behavior has been constant under this administration.
Bullying.
From a mother effort, I don't know if he was in charge during COVID.
Nova Scotia had a maritime bubble.
When I wanted to cross the bloody provincial border from Quebec to Ontario, I had to register online to justify why I needed to interprovincial travel.
They had a maritime bubble.
They were some of the most draconian freaking tyrants on earth.
I don't think Tim Houston was in power at the time, so I don't want to blame him, but shut your mouth and don't lecture Trump on bullying from a province that literally forbade outlawed outdoor protest against COVID restrictions, you commie hypocrite.
Millions of workers, consumers, and businesses on both sides of the border are suffering by the illegal, unnecessary actions of one man.
How about you fix your freaking border and you fix the crime and you stop giving student visas to Indians who default on the visas and then magically try to cross the border and end up on terror watchless?
How about you fix up your shit at home before you lecture the president of the most powerful country on earth?
This time it's the threat of 35% Euros tariffs.
Yada yada.
It comes at a time when Canada is working in good faith to reach a trade deal.
This type of childish bullying is no way to treat a neighbor, friend, or ally.
It's exactly why Canadians are not buying U.S. products and canceling trips to the U.S. And it's why Nova Scotia's measures around booze and procurement remain in place.
My dad used to say that there is nothing so bad that something good doesn't come out of it.
Sometimes you have to look a little harder, but there is often something good somewhere.
This time, the silver lining is that by attacking Canada, the president has actually made us stronger as a nation.
Nova Scotia stands with Team Canada.
Elbows up, homie.
We will continue to work harder to buy local.
Good.
Find new trading partners.
China?
And remove the internal trade barriers that have held us back in the past.
They say when others show you who they are, you should believe them.
I also believe when others do their worst, we should do our best.
Yeah, when others show you who they are, believe them.
When they outlaw protest, when they mandate jabs, when they refuse to allow you to travel interprovincially without a jab, you can't go to hell fast enough, you freaking hypocrites.
Holy sweet, merciful hell.
That's Canada, people.
Ginger Ninja in the house.
Am I the only one that loves it when Viva's voice cracks?
What do you mean?
It's great.
It happens twice this stream.
On another note, this isn't a thing of, isn't this a thing of beauty?
Hold on, hold on.
Hold up.
Wait a minute.
Something ain't right.
Let me get this.
Let me show the picture.
Tip questions.
Yeah, I'll show this.
This is Ginger Ninja re-ammoing or refilling ammo.
You can reuse the casings to reload.
Huh.
It's very cool.
I thought it was Lego from afar, but that ain't Lego.
Ginger Ninja, by the way, has his own channel on Rumble.
Hold up one second.
Let me get this up here.
Ginger Ninja made the chess board behind me.
Not the chess set.
The pieces are from France.
The pieces are from France.
The amazing thing is whenever I play with these pieces, they automatically surrender.
Ba-da-bing, bad-da-boom.
No, I got those in Paris.
I got these in Paris in 1999 when I lived there.
Triple weighted.
So check this out.
They can never.
Oh, shit.
Sorry.
They can never actually just stay down.
Triple weighted.
They're the most beautiful pieces on earth.
But the board.
Made by Ginger Ninja.
And I want to get his channel while we're here.
Ginger.
Ginger.
Ninja.
Ninja.
Ginger Ninja.
Ginger Ninja 1776.
Here.
Go follow him at least so he can crack 100 followers, people.
Here's a link to Ginger Ninja.
Boom.
Go follow.
And let's get to the chat before we figure out who we're going to raid today.
Who are we going to raid?
Ginger Ninja's not live.
Ginger Ninja is the one who took.
He invited me to Georgia for the A Soldier's Journey Home home build, which was fantastic.
Roseanne Barr is live.
No, let's do Jimmy Dore.
Encryptus, I will give you the link to.
Oh, what did he send me here?
He sent me some.
Wait till you take this two breaking stories and one something funny you have to see.
Okay, hold on one second.
Going down, is it the Karen Bass hole?
LA Mayor Karen Bass to give cash and food to help illegal aliens hide from ICE and to protect people from the federal government.
Lock her the F up, period.
Do it.
This is a, let's look.
It's Gateway Pundit.
I'm not saying take it with a grain of salt.
Gateway Pundit has been consistently reliable, but you can call the, come on, get this out of here.
I want to get this out.
LA Mayor Karen Bass to give cash and food to protect to help protect to cash and food to help illegal aliens hide from ICE to protect people from the federal government.
So a day after protest, I need to hear her say it.
Permanent.
And that would mean the raids would stop.
In terms of the first part of the question that you asked, what are the resources?
Well, in our community development programs, there's resources there in our family resource centers.
But we also are going to have a reinstitution of the Angelino Card, something that Mayor Garcett started during COVID that will actually provide cash assistance to people.
Because, you know, you have people who don't want to leave their homes, who are not going to work, and they are in need of cash.
You know, I have met with family members who they needed two incomes in order to make the rent.
Well, one income was lost or paid when someone was detained.
And this woman with her children now is concerned that she might face being evicted and being homeless.
And so it's that type of emergency assistance.
And we're fortunate that there's a lot of philanthropic partners.
Skipping it.
It's wild, but it will be actual criminal activity if they do this.
So may it be true.
Encryptus, let me go back here and see what else you had in the platform.
Skip the 100 and go to the next one.
I think we should do the funny one in locals.
We will do the rest one in locals.
Okay, who did this?
Okay, fine.
All right, so let's go raid Jimmy Door.
I like him.
I think everybody should like him.
He's a good guy.
So we're going to raid Jimmy.
And Viva has raided the stream.
Let me just go in here and say, Viva raid.
Rock on Jimmy.
Is he...
Oh, crap.
Is he not live anymore?
Ah, whatever.
We've raided him.
The comedian.
What happened?
Oh, crap.
Did it end?
Fuck Zion Fry.
What the f?
Holy shit.
I'd prefer to be made fun of from my list.
What is that?
Hello, Viva Fry.
Did he start or did he not start?
It looks like he hasn't quite started yet.
He's just starting now.
Here, fuck Zion Fry?
Oh, he means Zionist, not like the Zion National Park.
Oh, that's even worse.
All right.
People are idiots.
Nothing you can do about it.
