Mesh-tastic.
Adam Curry, John C.
Dvorak.
It's Sunday, November 23rd, 2025.
This is your award-winning Gilmore Nation Media
Assassination Episode 18-19.
This is no agenda.
Spotting, sedition, and broadcasting live from the heart
of the Texas Hill Country, here in FEMA
Region Number 6.
In the morning, everybody.
I'm Adam Curry.
And from Northern Silicon Valley, where we don't
believe a word of it, I'm John C.
Dvorak.
It's crackpot and buzzkill.
In the morning.
We don't believe a word of what?
Anything.
It's all, breaking news, nobody knows anything.
It's a scam.
Although, breaking, breaking, breaking news.
A Ukrainian won the sumo championship?
Elenishki.
Yeah.
Yeah, he is...
That's, that's, that's wrong somehow.
Feels wrong.
Well, there's actually two Ukrainians that are in
the matches.
There's a lot of Manchurians, but there's these
two Ukrainians.
Shishi's the other one.
Shishi, Shishi, or, is the other one.
He's not quite as...
This guy is a real technician.
It's interesting to watch him because he is...
I knew he was gonna win.
I mean, the first time I saw him
a few tournaments ago, I said, this guy's
gonna win something because he's too good.
Why didn't you call it on the show?
We talk about it all the time.
We don't talk about it all the time,
but I could have.
But he is definitely worth watching.
He's a pale, he's a big, fat, pale
guy.
He's very pale.
He's pale, but he's still big.
But he has, he uses, he's really a
technician.
He can do stuff that is pretty phenomenal.
He beats guys that shouldn't be beaten by
him.
He can do stuff, man.
He can do stuff.
He can do stuff.
Yeah, I expected him to win it eventually.
Yeah, oh.
Well, they also, they gotta get the, you
know what I'm thinking.
What?
Oh.
Yeah, so there's, you know.
Is there's an element of political stuff in
there?
There was a couple of match.
There was a match with Onosato earlier in
the week where he clearly lost.
And it would, they could have even called
it a tie, but they, he, they, because
there was a two days later, it was
the exact same situation happened where the two
of them went out, kind of went out
at the same time.
And the other guy did win.
The right guy won.
It was, it's.
It's rigged, it's fake.
I'm not gonna say it's that, but there's
a lot of gambling there.
The Japanese love gambling.
I was gonna say, can we do prop
bets on the sumo wrestling?
I guess so.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, let's just stick in Japan because we
are, of course, the best podcast in the
universe because we have the best producers in
the universe.
I got a note from Dame Astrid.
She is the grand duchess of Japan and
all the disputed islands of the Japan Sea.
And she said a little information on the
bad oyster and clam harvest, which you highlighted
on the previous episode.
Indeed.
Due to climate change.
Here's what's really going on.
China and Japan are in yet another escalating
spat.
And China decided once again, they would not
buy any more seafood from Japan.
So the clam.
That's because, did she say why?
No, but I'll finish reading.
She is kind of more boots on the
ground than we are.
Yeah, I know, but this reporting is going
on.
If you'd listen to NHK.
The clam industry is in a tizzy about
what to do with all the clams and
rather than selling them cheap to the Japanese,
it was better to pretend a bad harvest.
This is from Astrid, so.
She's designed nicer buildings than you have.
Yeah, but it's the oyster kill off that
is the issue.
Yeah, maybe.
And she didn't address that.
And it's scallops, which are, I guess, come
from a clam.
But the Chinese claim that because of a
recent rain or some other bull crap that
the radiation from the old food, whatever that
area was where they had the earthquake hit
it, is contaminating the fish and the Chinese
aren't buying it for that reason.
American Yankee, you dispute Dame Astrid?
No, I'm not disputing her, but she did
not address the oyster issue.
Well, she will now, because she's a fervent
listener.
Yes, she is, which is good.
This is very good.
But it doesn't mean we can't get into
an argument.
Well, do that in your own time, get
a room.
I got the note.
Oh, you did?
I didn't know she copied you on it.
Well, maybe, but I got a note from
her.
No, that was just a note of gratitude.
Oh, the thank you note, the thank you
note.
She knows better than to send you any
information.
If she wants it on the show, she'll
send it to me like everybody does.
So I got a note from our anonymous
lobbyist in Austin.
You remember the anonymous lobbyist?
Oh, yeah.
The official lobbyist of the No Agenda Show
who told us about why Texas is still
a two license plate state because of 3M
and their lobbyists wanting to not lose out
on 50% of the paint.
Yeah, I don't blame them.
So the lobbyist sent me two, I think,
very valuable pieces of information.
And the first is about Marjorie Taylor Greene.
And our lobbyist says, I have a unique
inside connection about MTG and what's going on
with her.
Well, before you breathe this, can you, why
don't you give us a little background on
what happened?
Like nobody knows?
Okay.
You know, you're always making these assumptions that
I don't make.
Now to the news that has rattled Washington
over the last couple of days, firebrand Republican
Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene announcing she will resign
from her seat in January.
The Georgia representative and longtime loyalist of President
Trump has spent the last several weeks in
a public feud with the president over the
Epstein files, healthcare and more.
NBC's Julie Cirkin is at the White House
with new details.
Julie, good morning.
Well, good morning, President Trump on Saturday telling
reporters here that he disagreed with Marjorie Taylor
Greene's philosophy when asked about the Georgia Congresswoman's
shocking decision to resign.
Shocking!
The president claims she made the announcement which
caught him and House Speaker Mike Johnson by
surprise because she wouldn't have won her primary
after he threatened to fund a challenger to
run against her.
MPG, as she's known, is meeting Congress on
January 5th and that means House Speaker Mike
Johnson will soon have an even slimmer majority
and even fewer votes to enact the administration's
priorities.
So I'll continue with the note and then
we can discuss.
So a colleague of the no agenda lobbyist
works with federal advocacy and is in the
same district as Marjorie Taylor Greene which is
a big Trump district.
The three main reasons given in no specific
order.
One, Trump giveth, Trump taketh.
Big donors pulled out and the initial primary
candidate announced and MTG would have lost the
primary and I have this primary candidate's announcement.
Fun fact, my colleague went to high school
with MTG's would-be opponent.
Opponent seems, shall I say, very DIA-ish.
And do you know about this guy who
- I have no clue about this guy
that they're gonna run.
Christian Hurd, he has a whole blurb here.
I'll read a little bit.
I'm a husband, a father, a Marine and
10th generation Georgian.
Except for my time at the University of
Georgia and serving in the United States Marine
Corps, I've been proud to call Georgia's 14th
district home for all of my life.
So then he goes into, as an intelligence
Marine, fluent in languages- Hello.
Well, it gets better.
As an intelligence Marine, fluent in the languages
of Iran and Afghanistan.
Okay, all right, you've been around.
I've extensive training in Middle Eastern issues and
operational experience in the Indo-Pacific region.
Oh, and this is so important to the
locals in Georgia.
Of course not, except for the locals who
work in the military industrial complex in Georgia.
I think there's some business there.
Sure, there is everywhere.
I have witnessed firsthand the slipping of our
national power in the face of existential Chinese
threat and the consequences of weak leadership.
While I'm committed to enabling the United States
to do whatever is necessary to bury our
enemies and win new Cold Wars, Marjorie Greene
has consistently failed to understand America's critical role
in this world and the dangers we face.
I will ensure our military has what it
needs to defeat evolving and advanced threats because
America first means we must never allow our
enemies to catch us unprepared or asleep.
We can never allow a Chinese dominated world.
And if Marjorie Greene has her way with
America only isolationism, we enable it.
This is a professional written thing.
He did not write this.
I mean, so turning her America first into
America only, I think is an interesting, I
think we'll be hearing that more.
I think so too.
That seems like a prose at work.
I didn't say it, I didn't say it.
Well, I have some thoughts about it, but
first let's listen to, let me see.
When I have it here, I thought I
had a thing from Trump on what he
had to say about, well, okay.
I think this comes as part of the
Epstein op, which includes Massey, of course.
Massey and Marjorie Taylor Greene credited with most
of the news around and the actual actions
of releasing the Epstein files.
I've had a rep ahead of Massey says
he's concerned that the Epstein probe you were
calling for.
I had to run this through the AI.
So Trump sounds good, but the reporter doesn't
sound so good.
Could be a slope screen to lock early
for more files.
He's not the king.
Well, I don't want to talk about it
because fake news like you, you're a terrible
reporter and fake news like you, they just
keep bringing that up to deflect from the
tremendous success of the Trump administration.
So a guy like Massey, his poll numbers
are showing is a 6% approval rating
right now.
And we call him Rand Paul Jr. because
he never votes for the Republican Party.
So they're using Jeffrey Epstein as a deflection
from the tremendous success that we're having as
a party.
Now, so the way I read what's going
on here, first of all, I was clearly
wrong about, well, wrong about what?
Well, I really thought that MTG and Trump
were playing a little game here.
I think you kind of at least somewhat
agreed with that.
Yes, that was quickly, that didn't last long.
Well, here's what I'm thinking.
First of all, this is a major warning
to the Republicans.
And what he says there is part of
it.
It's like, hey, if you're not voting with
the party, then maybe you shouldn't be a
member of the party.
You should be an independent, but otherwise you
gotta be a part of the party.
That's what, I mean, the success, he even
said the successes we've had as a party.
And I think he really likes Marjorie Taylor
Greene.
And it's possible that she wanted an out
anyway.
This whole resigning halfway through, that's the part
that makes no sense.
It's like, why would you do that?
And I saw her on CNN and MSNOW,
they finally changed their name, MSNOW.
Same people, new crappy name.
Actually worse people.
I have a feeling that she may pop
up with her own TV show.
Well, that's a possibility.
She could also run for governor.
I don't think she's unpopular.
No, I don't think she's unpopular at all.
Her long announcement, she really is kind of
irked by the fact that everyone hates her
and they mock her and ridicule her and
they threaten her and their family.
It's a miserable life if you're gonna go
the way she did.
She's a QAnon nut.
She was, you know, she supported Trump in
his 2020 election was rigged gut thesis, which
was popularized with Trump.
She was a troublemaker during the Biden administration.
She kept yelling at Biden during the State
of the Union address that she did twice.
Yeah, well, we all thought that was funny.
It was great.
I thought it was, in fact, that's what
I said in the news, that was good.
Which is that we're gonna miss her.
We're gonna miss her.
We're gonna miss her very much, yeah.
But I think this quitting, I feel the
same way she quits out of the blue
in January.
She doesn't have to do that.
She can let her term run out and
maintain the voting majority.
But I think she was, either somebody put
a gun to her head or she's sick
of it, can't take it anymore.
I don't know.
That doesn't seem like her.
That's what I'm saying.
Something is up.
I was wrong about the game.
I think I was wrong about the game
that they were playing, but something seems up
with this.
But to say, okay, I'm not gonna run
anymore, that's one thing.
But to quit, she doesn't seem like a
quitter.
She doesn't have the skill set to be
a TV person.
That's not a prerequisite to be on these
stupid cable news channels.
I'm not saying that.
I'm just saying she doesn't have the skill
set.
I mean, Laura Trump barely makes it on
Fox.
I mean, I think she's got a good
show because she brings the top-notch people
as guests.
But she doesn't, it's annoying to watch.
The problem with television is that if you're
doing a half-hour show, you can annoy
the viewers really fast.
I mean, I get annoyed.
I don't like, there's a number of people
that just aren't pleasant to look at.
Most of them.
Most of them, but a lot of them
are so, it's not like, oh, you know,
this is, again, I don't wanna get into
this executive mode.
She's not unpleasant to look at.
No, but she's not, it's something about her.
She is not, you can't put up with
a lot of it.
But listen, wouldn't it be- Small doses,
she's great.
Stay in executive mode for a second.
So we're running CNN or running MS Now.
Both of them have highlighted her nonstop since
his resignation.
She was on CNN.
She was on MS Now.
I mean, in executive mode, I'd be like,
let's give her a contract, at least to
be a commentator on how much, how bad
Trump is.
If you can bring her on as a
commentator as a short-term contract.
Well, they have a term for that.
I mean, I would be against it in
general, but if you made the argument to
do it because you had a sense of
it, I would say, well, I think we
can give her a tryout.
She can be the special correspondent on all
things Trump.
Don't they have special correspondents, like senior Trump
analysts?
It's funny how those same people become different
things at different times.
But here's Marjorie Taylor Greene, our senior Trump
analyst.
No, I don't think she would do that
for CNN or MS Now.
Okay, everything, you know, she had her 10
-minute video.
It plays into exactly the America First versus
MAGA, you know, fueling the Civil War.
I doubt that she's been a Republican in
disguise.
Something is up with this.
And I don't think she's running for president,
which seems to be like Tim Dillon on
Joe Rogan.
Oh yeah, no, I know it for sure.
She's running for president, like, okay.
Is that right?
That's what he said, yeah.
And Joe's like, wow, hadn't thought about that.
That would be great.
That's totally possible.
Yeah, I don't see that happening.
But, you know, we still have this op
ongoing, which I still think is to root
out the bad apples in the Republican Party.
And we now know that Massey has a
new nickname.
I'm not saying he's a bad apple, but,
you know, in Trump's mind, he is Rand
Paul Jr. Yeah, I like that.
It's cute.
That's a good one.
Here was the question about Tucker.
You know, Tucker, of course, interviewing Nick Fuentes.
And again, this has run through the AI
to make Trump sound a little bit legible
in front of the airplane.
Surprising, I have Mr. Tucker Carlson recently had
a friendly interview with anti-Semite Nick Fuentes.
Tucker Carlson, what role do you think Tucker
Carlson should play in the Republican Party that
conservatives are going to be voting for?
Well, I found him to be good.
I mean, he said good things about me
over the years.
He's, I think he's good.
We've had some good interviews.
I did an interview with him.
We read 300 million hits.
You know that.
Hits?
Hello, 1996, Mr. President.
In 1996, we were selling hits.
Hits.
Look, I can't tell him.
Wow, you know, I hate to tell you
this, but just getting there.
I didn't hear that, but that has to
have a borderline clip of the day.
All right, let's listen to it again.
Check the calendar.
I did an interview with him.
We read 300 million hits.
You know that.
Look, I can't tell him.
Will you let me finish my say?
You are the worst.
You're with Bloomberg, right?
You are the worst.
I don't know why they even have you.
We've had some great interviews with Tucker Carlson,
but you can't tell him who to interview.
I mean, if he wants to interview Nick
Fuentes, I don't know much about him, but
if he wants to do it, get the
word out.
Let him, you know, people have to decide.
Ultimately, people have to decide.
Get the word out.
Ultimately, people have to decide.
Get what word out?
Why did he say that?
Tucker Carlson has to get the word out?
I have no idea.
That makes no sense.
I mean, he's condemning that poor woman.
That was either Catherine or Peggy.
That was Catherine.
It might have been Peggy.
I don't know.
Yeah, there's this Bloomberg girl.
Why are they on the plane?
This is like free world travel for these
reporters, and they're getting these rides on the
plane to go wherever.
You know, there's gotta be a great gig
to be on the Air Force One flying
around, and why are they allowed on the
plane if they're so bad?
This makes no sense to me.
You get to pick and choose who gets
to come on the plane.
It's not like everyone, it's a free for
all.
Because he likes it.
He loves this, but beside that, he said
- I think he's a sadist.
Get the word out.
If he hadn't said hits, you know, which
kind of discredits everything coming out of his
mouth.
Hits, totally does.
Hits.
So this all kind of folds into Epstein.
I don't wanna stay on Epstein too long
for obvious reasons, because it's boring and we
don't have anything to do with it.
We don't have anything really new, other than
- I have no clips, I don't think.
I do, actually.
But other than the hilarious Gmail, or J
-mail, do you see that thing?
They created a- Tell me.
Oh, it's a website, and it functions just
like Gmail, except they've put all of Epstein's
emails in there, the 20,000 emails.
So there's boxes on the left, like-
I have not seen this.
Oh, it's very good.
So have you dug into it?
Well, I mean, there's 20,000.
Of course, I looked at it a little
bit.
So it's jmail.world, J-M-A-I
-L.
You should just pull it up, because he's
got, on the left, he's got Michael Wolff,
Larry Summers, Steve Bannon, Joey Ito, Ghislaine, Noam
Chomsky, Tom Pritzker, Dershowitz.
And it looks exactly like Gmail.
You can read all the threads.
It's very well done.
Very well done.
Who did it?
A couple of dudes.
I don't think anyone actually, did anyone claim
this?
Let me see.
Are you sure it's not agency- Well,
that's a good question, because according to Wired,
let's see what Wired says.
Now, Wired's headline is, pranksters recreated a working
version of Jeffrey Epstein's Gmail box.
I think this is a very good question
you pose.
This- It's all over it, doesn't it?
Yeah.
Let me see what, does it have an
aboot?
Is there an aboot here?
Let me see.
No, that doesn't, oh.
You're logged in as Jeffrey Epstein.
We compiled these Epstein Estate emails from the
House Oversight release, converting the PDFs to structured
text with an LLM made by Luke Igle
and Riley Waltz.
Sure.
Exactly.
That's a very good point.
Someone's trying to pass on a message in
the form of a joke, which has, yeah,
agency slash Trump written all over it.
So regarding this, I'm going to deconstruct a
podcast, which usually gets people very, very mad.
Whenever we do that, I will give you
an example of the emails- Shooting inside
the tent.
Shooting inside the tent, man.
Hey, when you're shooting at the enemy, don't
shoot to the guy sitting next to you.
And this kind of came about firstly because
there was JP Morgan's CEO, Jamie Dimon, hosted
a birthday bash this week for King Charles
III at the bank's New York headquarters, had
the building completely lit up in a British
flag, invited Tony Blair and the British consulate,
Brian Cox, I guess he's British.
You know, and even though the king wasn't
there, it's like, well, you know, I don't
know- The king wasn't there.
Wait a minute, let me get this straight.
I don't know what that was about, other
than I'm on your side, guys, because, you
know, JP Morgan Chase is implicated in a
lot of these, like a billion dollars worth
of- What you witnessed was a cry
for help.
Cry for help, exactly.
So we've been talking about this North Sea
nexus, the English-Dutch, the Anglo-Dutch system,
and I'm proud to say that America this
week with Matt Taibbi and Walter Kim, no
one can say Matt Taibbi is a bad
journalist.
He's done some of the most amazing reporting,
particularly, I would say, the 2008 Great Depression.
I mean, he- His financial reporting is
outstanding.
He did great financial reporting.
And he's also a fun writer.
Yes, and his writing is a lot more
fun than listening to him on the podcast,
particularly- Oh, he's a terrible podcaster, but
he is a terrific writer.
He knows how to put the little sides
in there.
He's just nasty stuff.
So I had to cut out a lot
of- A lot of that.
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
But these guys, they're finally on the no
-agenda train, and I'm happy to report they're
starting to figure it out.
And I will stand on my contention that
I think he was way more involved in
the United States- Who is this?
This is Walter Kim.
Walter Kerr?
Walter Kim.
It's not Walter Kerr.
No, it's Walter Kim.
Walter Kim, let's see.
I think it's Kim.
Yeah, it's Kim.
Walter Kim, let me see.
Is it Kim?
I thought it was Kim.
Walter Kim journalist.
Sounds exactly like Walter Kerr.
Maybe it's Kerr, maybe I'm wrong.
No, no, this is the guy.
American novelist, literary critic, essayist.
Yeah, it has to be Kerr.
It's Kim.
Oh, Kern, I'm sorry, Kern, yes.
Oh, Kern, yeah.
Kern, okay, so we were both wrong.
Walter Kerr, I'm sorry.
You got it, you were right.
I got closer.
Much closer than I did.
Walter Kerr.
And I will stand on my contention that
I think he was way more involved in
the United States scene than he was the
Israel agent who had somehow managed to compromise
the entire U.S. establishment without the knowledge
of our, or somehow with the cooperation of
our agencies.
Doesn't stand to reason.
I think this is gonna be an exposure
of really vast proportions.
We've just seen a touch of it, his
influence in Congress.
Right, that's my guess is that what it
will expose, what these documents will expose is
systemic corruption on a scale previously not imaginable,
right?
Because with Epstein, just to take the example
of the officials in both JPMorgan Chase and
the U.S. Virgin Islands government, you're dealing
with every single person has knowledge about who
this person is and what he does.
And it's one thing to look the other
way when you're not sure if so-and
-so might have a gambling conviction in their
past or something like that.
It's another thing entirely to talk about systematic
sex trafficker and money launder, right?
And he's also in some way involved with
the British.
Ah, see, this is where I'm like, oh,
really now?
What kind of involvement could that be?
You don't go sit in the castles of
the royal family with Ghislaine Maxwell and get
photographed.
You don't corrupt Prince Andrew.
Listen, very quietly, Prince Andrew has been moved
out of the royal family.
They're stripping him of his titles right now.
It just happened in the last couple of
weeks.
Are you kidding me?
This guy had penetrated or was somehow a
tool of the British at the highest levels.
And they have a lot of downside in
Russiagate, too.
I mean, what we know now about the
Russiagate operation was that it was a two
-state job, at least.
Britain's role in Russiagate is another one of
those stories that if we had a real
press corps, there would have been God knows
how many reporters assigned to that by now,
right?
And they're just not.
Nobody does the work, right?
How come they never get mentioned?
How come it's always Israel, Israel?
But we have this guy who was palling
around with the second in line for the
throne, or whatever, I guess at one point
maybe, who has now been exiled, practically, from
the monarchy of England, no biggie.
Talk about the dog that didn't bark.
So I can't wait to see Matt Talleyby's
inbox.
You Zionist shill, you're taking shekels again from
Israel.
No, he completely understands it.
Well, I don't know about that completely.
Well, no, you're right.
And he will report on it and no
one will read it and no one will
say anything about it, but at least he'll
write about it and he connects this to
Russiagate, which we already saw happening.
And this is probably the reason why Trump
wanted this Epstein stuff delayed, because he's got,
on one hand, he's got Department of Justice
going after everybody who was involved in Russiagate.
He wanted to bring this in at the
appropriate time, which would be right before the
midterms, and of all these embarrassments and everything
taking place, which, by the way, I think
probably wouldn't work anyway with the way our
media operates.
It would either be ignored or it would
be twisted around.
Yeah, I have to agree, because there's too
much stuff out there right now that's being
ignored.
So let's, so here's where they connect.
But it was an idea that he had
in mind, which I think is another one
of the reasons why he was hating on
Marjorie Taylor Greene, because her and these other
boneheads were not- Popping it too quick,
popping it too quick.
And they couldn't take a chance on reading
them in, because if you do that, because
there were loose cannons, so you couldn't say
anything.
You say, Marjorie, here's what we're up to.
We want this to go on until next
year, around March, April, May.
At least, at minimum.
At least, it'd be, July would be better.
And can you just cool your jets?
So- And, well, I can't do that.
Yeah, so here's how he'd be connecting it
all.
It's all a carefully sculpted non-story, which,
again, is right back where we were in
2018 and 2019.
And this time, instead of anti-Russian hysteria,
it's gonna be Israel hysteria that's gonna drive
this whole thing.
As you point out, like, you just caught
me screwing this up.
Robert Maxwell's British, right?
Yes, he was.
He ran British newspapers.
He was next to Rupert Murdoch as a
purveyor of tabloid journalism in England.
Ghislaine hung out with the royal family.
If you map American society, which I have
tried to do in an amateur way, okay,
for 30, 40 years, who knows who hangs
out with who?
Where do they hang out?
What do they do together?
Who's friends?
Who dates?
Who hires each other?
You will find that Jeffrey Epstein, since about
the 1990s, has been one degree of separation
from everyone, from entertainers to press people, to
politicians, to royals.
And then the final bit, where Kern really
gets to show his background.
And you gotta remember, the royal family of
England, in some ways, is a pyramid, is
the peak of the pyramid, and even in
terms of American social life.
Those people come to America a lot, and
the invitations that they give in England are
answered by Americans.
Vanity Fair in the 1980s, where I worked,
was an absolute royal worship fest.
You know, the British kind of invasion of
American and New York society, which began in
the 80s, went on.
This is the precondition for spy.
Absolutely.
Recovery, yep, mm-hmm.
Absolutely.
New York was edited by Tina Brown, the
former editor of the Tattler, in the London
Society Magazine, whose husband was the former editor
of the Sunday Times, Harry Evans.
Many would have thought that he was also
associated with the British establishment, let's put it
that way.
And having gone to school over there, I
can tell you that the difference between British
intelligence and British high society is not a
difference.
Welcome to the party, Walter and Matt.
I love that they're seeing it this way,
which is a good way to look at
it.
Yeah, it's a better way of looking at
it than the standard fare right now, especially
if you listen to all these two-bit
analysts.
This is Islamists plus Communists that are getting
together.
It's the old Communist regime from Russia, from
the Soviet Union.
The same Communists are teaming up with the
Islamists from ISIS.
Have you not, you haven't seen this?
Yes, of course.
I've seen it a lot.
Of course I have.
And it's like, it does, it makes zero
sense.
Well, here's part two of the email from
the anonymous official No Agenda lobbyist.
Quick note on Texas, you're spot on with
the Muslim talk trying to get out the
GOP vote.
Abbott is running for governor again, announced on
November 9th, and his campaign is pulling no
punches.
How do I know?
I talked to the two men running his
campaign.
As they are working with me and some
of the members I represent in Texas to
do political events touting Texas manufacturing, is the
propaganda directly connected to the campaign?
Probably not, but that doesn't mean conversations never
happened.
So this is exactly why Abbott, the minute
this thing started to peak a little bit
with 48 new mosques in Texas in 24
months, why he comes out with a proclamation,
hey, I'm Gregory Abbott.
I'm here to protect you from these terrorist
organizations.
Have no worry, I'll take care of you.
And after we discussed this, that this is
clearly an op, I got the typical responses
like, with all due respect.
I usually agree with you.
With all due respect.
Your stance is wrong regarding the dangers of
Islam.
By the way, I don't think I'd said
anything about the dangers of Islam, only that
this hysteria.
No, all you said is that this is
bullcrap, what they're talking about.
And whether there's dangers with Islam, I had
a good note from somebody, I don't know
if I printed it out or not.
If I do, I'll read it.
From one of our guys, Muslim.
Oh, I got his note.
Oh yeah, that note I'm talking about.
And because he's, for some reason, I have
no idea why this guy wants to be
so anonymous, although he's very spooky in the
way he presents things.
Well, shall I read the key pieces from
his note?
Yes, please do.
So, first of all, he did indeed call
it.
He said, I called it, I told you
care would be next.
The next phase is against political Islam and
their most refined approach in the brotherhood.
The brotherhood is a very adept group.
Again, we know the brotherhood was invented by
the British.
We've heard- Yeah, it's called the Muslim
Brotherhood.
The Muslim Brotherhood.
He just calls it the brotherhood.
Yeah, well, that could be Christians.
They didn't plan a mass migration to Europe,
but they simply hijacked and tried to group
all the migrants from Muslim countries under their
own ideology.
Brotherhood-oriented figures were instrumental in driving Obama
and Hillary's rubbilizations in the early 2010s through
the techno experts and ops.
But there is an op in place which
could be triggered by multiple parties.
I don't want to point to a specific
group here, but there are numerous interests at
play.
By the way, this line right here tells
me that he's in some kind of intelligence.
Part one, the insanity of the Democrats brought
Christians and Muslims together against woke ideology.
There's a group that does not like this.
That's an interesting one.
Hadn't thought about that.
Right-wing groups are alarmed by how Europe
became, and this needs to be controlled.
There's your Texas meme.
Religiously moderate countries like the UAE and Saudi
Arabia are launching against the Brotherhood.
They consider the movement their arch enemy.
Of course, we just made big friends with
Saudi Arabia.
Zionist groups are trying to reset public opinion
and the gaze for Gaza mentality among liberals
in the West.
You see, it really behooves a lot of
people, this kind of op.
He says he personally thinks a lot of
Muslims cannot assimilate into modern societies.
They can't even assimilate into Arab modern societies.
The nature of open migration that brings the
most economically challenged who were preached by the
most extreme wings of Islam are to blame.
This is exactly what happened in Afghanistan.
We have a group of super hardline Salafists
gaining full control over a very basic society
that is economically driven into the ground.
So the reason why this- We haven't
talked about the Salafists for a long time.
No, we haven't.
They're also called the Wahhabi sect.
Yeah.
So the United States no longer has an
open border.
The Muslim population is what?
1.2% of all of America?
1.3 plus, we expect it to double
by 2030 or 2.7. A small search
just in the Houston, Dallas area.
A number of churches in Dallas, that's 2
,442.
So that against your so-called 48.
There's 2,000, how many churches in Dallas
alone?
2,442.
In Harris County, 3,414.
I mean, there are, I mean, there's a
lot of, we are a Christian nation.
We're not like Europe who are nothing, who
gave up everything.
Their churches are now WeWork office stations and
Airbnbs.
So anyway, with all due respect, your stance
is wrong regarding the dangers of Islam.
Replacement is like slowly creeping socialism has been.
See, this person- Is this from the
same note?
Yeah, this is from the one I started
originally.
Not, this is not from our guide.
Oh, the one you started originally?
Okay, you made a, you didn't make that
clear.
Well, you interrupted me and I went straight
to the note.
Well, you can still make it clear you
can't blame me.
I'm not blaming you.
I'm just telling you factually it happened in
the flow of the show.
I'll start over.
With all due respect, your stance is wrong
regarding the dangers of Islam.
Replacement is like slowly creeping socialism has been,
but the punchline will be brutal when you're
hit with the convert or lose your head.
It's not a fairy tale.
We're talking again about 1.3% of
the population.
The Jihad is not an invention of Islamophobia.
So first of all, if you really want
to talk about Texas, 15 years ago, we
were talking about Fethullah Gulen's Harmony Charter Schools.
One of our producers.
I forgot all about that guy.
One of our producers, Sir Mark, he made
a movie about it.
Yeah, which I went to see and met
him.
Yes, and there's, I think 300 of these
schools.
Boy, have they radicalized everybody?
They may have gotten a crap education, but
it hasn't worked.
So, and we've been paying attention to this
for a long time.
And if you send me videos of Ayaan
Hirsi Ali, who I know personally, you're not
making a good argument.
We are not Europe.
There's a whole bunch of reasons why this
is not going to happen.
Now, I also love the emails like, you
should get out of Fredericksburg more often.
You see what's going on.
He gets out of Fredericksburg a lot.
I do.
And there's also not- You get out
of Fredericksburg more than you'd expect.
There's also not- But you get out
of Fredericksburg more than most locals in Fredericksburg
do for sure.
So- Except the spooks.
Thankfully, one, two, three, four, five producers live
in or around Dearborn, Michigan.
Because this is what is continuously touted as
the hotbed.
This is where it's happening.
This is so bad.
It's just the worst.
It's like, it's run by Islamists.
Yeah.
So first we get a Zetter, Jen Zetter.
I'm 29, union electrician, actually working for G
.E. Verone on a steam power plant, which
is cool.
When I was a kid in Dearborn, as
well as Hamtramk, Ham, Hamtramk?
Trampk?
I don't know that place.
It was pretty much all Polish people.
That is not the case anymore.
I still work in Dearborn for Ford Motor
Company quite a bit.
Calls to prayer are a thing, but not
daily.
Downtown Dearborn is definitely filled with women in
hijabs, which to me isn't a big deal.
The biggest problem with the Muslim situation, by
the way, every single one of these emails
tells me that most of the Arabs living
in Dearborn are Christians.
So they may look like they're Muslims, but
most of them are Christians, the majority.
If you recall when 9-11 happened, you
and I remember, the Arabs in Dearborn were
putting bumper stickers saying, I'm a Christian, I'm
not a Muslim.
You remember that?
Very vaguely.
The biggest problem with the Muslim situation in
Dearborn is they are terrible drivers.
Driving through downtown Dearborn is like driving through
Baghdad.
People constantly stopping in the middle of the
street and parking on the sidewalk.
Okay.
They're terrible drivers in the Middle East.
They are.
In fact, somebody once pointed out that they're
always slamming their hands against the side of
their cars to make noise and honking.
They like honking a lot.
Yes.
Like honking a lot.
Let's see, we've got Brad.
We have, here's a Dearborn Zoomer.
I was just driving through Dearborn yesterday.
Thing is that a lot of people probably
miss is there's a massive population of Arabic
Christians, mainly Chaldean and Lebanese that live in
the area.
They've been here since at least the 60s
and the Chaldeans own a ton of property
in Detroit and surrounding areas.
You know, so this is, when you see
a brown person on Instagram reels, don't immediately
think that Dearborn has been taken over.
It's just not true.
Well, it has been taken over by one
thing from what I understand from the people
I know that go in and out of
there.
Good food.
Very good food.
Yes.
Yeah.
So I put all these notes in the
show notes or dweezil of Dearborn is in
there.
Joshua, let me see what Joshua says.
I've been listening to your show for years.
I live outside of Dearborn, drive through it
most days.
I used to live in West Dearborn.
Everybody I'll say when I was growing up,
when he was growing up, it's the largest
Muslim population outside of the Middle East.
We used to call East Dearborn Little Lebanon.
I'm a mid 30s Christian white guy.
All the propaganda I see is heavy and
bull crap.
I used to love living near Muslims and
I've done a lot of business with Muslim
men.
They're terrific neighbors.
They are very close to Christian values.
Even the women come here and assimilate into
American values.
I see more cases when the women go
out without a hijab.
They keep their religion, but no one wants
to have Sharia law here.
Also, I've never heard prayer chant over the
speakers.
I've asked friends recently, they've never heard that
either.
I've never even heard them during Ramadan when
I lived in Dearborn.
Although a lot of people in these notes
did complain about church bells.
They find the church bells quite annoying.
So all this is to say, this isn't
up.
And it's as always, it's politically motivated.
And where I first kind of thought that
people wanted, and it still could be that
this whole epic and Muslims and the mosques,
48, 48 mosques and thousands of churches, that
it was against Abbott.
Now I'm feeling, oh, he had this hyped
up a little bit so that he could
be Mr. Savior, come in and say, there's
never gonna be an epic center or meadow,
whatever you want to call it.
They won't be allowed to buy land.
I'm your governor, I'm the guy you want
to vote for.
Seems pretty plausible to me.
I think it's the only explanation.
Yes, so now of course- And Abbott
is not, you know, any story.
I mean, don't forget during COVID, he's the
one that took off and took a vacation
in Mexico.
And he had us locked down for a
bit.
No, that was Cruz.
Cruz took the Mexican vacation.
Oh, I thought Abbott took off too.
No, but- You sure?
Yeah, Abbott locked us up.
I know Cruz did, but I thought Abbott
also did.
I don't remember, but Abbott locked us up.
People haven't forgotten that.
So this brings us to- But who's
gonna run against Abbott?
Abbott's going to, I don't think he needs
all this extra leverage.
Well- Does he think there's a Democrat
on the horizon that's gonna beat him?
No, I would say another Republican probably.
I don't know.
I will ask the lobbyists to let us
know.
Ask the lobbyists, who's the competition?
Yes, it would be a Republican, not a
Democrat.
Abbott wants to keep his power.
So then the other big news, speaking of
Muslim socialists- I'm not from Texas, so
I don't have, I'm not governed by Abbott,
but overall, except for his lockdown and some
of his crappy policies, the way he handled
the immigration thing by busing people out of
the state, I thought was genius.
So the guy's creative.
He was a showboater, and he went down
there to Eagle Pass and did his big
press conference while they were walking across the
border right through the open fence a mile
away.
He's a showboater.
He's full of crap.
People don't really respect him.
You know, he jumped on board once Trump
gave him backing and then, yeah, okay.
Well, get rid of him then.
I got to find out if there's someone
better.
I don't know.
Give us Marjorie Taylor Greene.
That would be funny.
So did you get anything on the mom,
Donny visits to the White House?
I do have a couple of clips, I
think.
Okay, because I got a couple and I'll
wait for you to go first.
Well, I have- Because I would hate
to be- I have to admit, you
were- I'd hate to be steamrolling you.
Well, you normally do that.
But this is why I'm talking to you.
I'm taking your feelings.
Mom, Donny meeting.
This is a good overview from NTD.
President Trump welcoming New York City's mayor-elect,
self-described democratic socialist, Zora Mamdani, to the
White House today.
This as the House passes a resolution condemning
what it calls the horrors of socialism.
The horrors!
The vote taking place shortly after- Did
she say a horse?
The horse.
Sounds like horse to me.
House passes a resolution condemning what it calls
the horrors of socialism.
The vote taking place shortly after- Mamdani
is definitely a whore of socialism, if that's
what you're calling it.
This as the House passes a resolution condemning
what it calls the horrors of socialism.
The vote taking place shortly after Mamdani touched
down at the airport ahead of his afternoon
sit-down with the president.
We now go live to NTD's Washington correspondent,
Mari Otsu, who's standing by at the White
House.
Good evening, Mari.
What came of the meeting today, and were
they able to find any common ground?
Tiff, good evening.
Sure, they actually were.
And President Trump and incoming New York City
Mayor, Zoran Mamdani, seemed to put aside a
lot of their differences today, saying that they
look forward to working together after months of
publicly criticizing each other.
President Trump says that they had a, quote,
great, productive meeting, and that they have one
thing in common.
They both want the city that they love
to do well.
The president began the meeting congratulating Mamdani on
his election win, saying that the better that
he does, the happier he will be, and
vows to help make a safe and strong
New York.
Mamdani and President Trump are from very opposed
philosophies, Mamdani is a self-described democratic socialist,
who the president has frequently referred to as
a communist, which is a label that Mamdani
has rejected.
Mamdani's campaign promises include free public buses, universal
childcare, city-run grocery stores, and increasing the
minimum wage to $30 by 2030.
President Trump, a native New Yorker, has called
those policies crazy in the past, but today
he says that some of Mamdani's ideas are
really the same as his.
Take a look.
We had a meeting today that actually surprised
me.
He wants to see no crime, he wants
to see housing being built, he wants to
see rents coming down, all things that I
agree with.
Now, we may disagree how we get there.
I expect to be helping him, not hurting
him.
A big help, because I want New York
City to be great.
Look, I love New York City, it's where
I come from.
Ultimately, it's for the good of New York.
If this city could be unbelievable, if he
could be a spectacular success, I'd be very
happy.
I feel bad for people who don't trust
Trump, you know, and like, ugh, you know,
this guy's just an op, he's no biggie,
he's part of the neocon.
You are witnessing some of the funniest political
stuff in our entire lives.
Yeah, you'll never have another president like this.
Ever, ever, and it's befuddling people, and I
love it, like, here's Martha Raddatz.
That was a remarkable scene.
I don't think I've ever seen President Trump.
That wasn't supposed to happen that way.
Treat a Democrat so kindly in public, what
was that about?
It's a very good question, and I think
none of us really knew how this was
gonna play out, and then it turned into
this complete love fest.
I mean, it really wasn't that long ago
that they were hurling insults at each other,
right?
I mean, Trump labeling Maumdani a communist, Maumdani
calling Trump a fascist, and yet on Friday,
all of that, I think to much of
our surprise, was water under the bridge.
I thought it was very interesting that Trump
clearly knows that Maumdani's message of affordability is
gaining traction.
At some point, it seemed like they were
trying to out-affordability each other as both
parties try to claim that mantle, and very
strategic of the mayor-elect to come in
and remind the president that some of his
supporters had backed him.
Trump then saying he thinks even some conservatives
will be surprised by Maumdani.
I'm curious to see where concretely they work
together and just how long this budding bromance
will last.
Bromance, you know, I don't know about you.
Let me ask you a question.
Yeah.
Did you expect anything other than what happened?
It seems so obvious to me that once
Maumdani asked for the meeting that this is
exactly what was gonna happen.
They're both populists, and they're just from two
sides of the political spectrum, but they're both
the same basically, and they both use the
same techniques as I mentioned in my Substack
column, devorah.substack.com, go check it out.
When this happened, it was just like, and
they're both sales guys.
I mean, Maumdani not as professional as Trump,
but they're, you know, glad handers.
And what else was gonna happen?
Well, but we've been observing the Trump algorithm
for 10 years.
And it's like, yeah, you could almost predict
it.
But he took it to a level that
was just so beautiful.
I think he had shills in the press
corps to ask certain questions.
And I finally, I think this ABC clip,
I think has better audio about the fascist
comments and all that.
But he's sitting down, has Maumdani standing, total
power move, patting him on the elbow, you
know, don't worry about it.
Yeah, they're giving him a lot of touching
going on.
Hey, you two, get a room.
Maumdani clearly not as experienced.
How could you be?
He just doesn't have the years.
Very impressed with him though.
I thought he handled it well, but this
was a win for the president.
I mean, if New York does well, Trump
says, well, it's because I helped Maumdani.
And if New York doesn't do well, Trump
says, well, I helped.
You know, he screwed it up.
I did what I could.
I did what I could, yeah.
Here's ABC of New York.
It was a surreal love fest no one
saw coming with President Trump in the Oval
Office at every turn, showering Mayor-elect Zoran
Maumdani with praise.
Do you think you're standing next to a
jihadist right now in the Oval Office?
No, I don't.
I met with a man who's a very
rational person.
The president even repeatedly throwing- Do you
know who that journalist is?
Because she asked all of those hot button
questions.
I did not recognize her.
Blonde, she's blonde.
Oh, that little, yes, I've seen her before.
When I saw her, because she asked the
question about the fascists, and I've been trying
to think, I know who it is, I
just can't, and her voice doesn't trigger it.
I can't tell you, but I've seen her
a lot.
Well, she's a big shot on ABC.
Oh, yeah, well, she's a shill.
That could be.
I think she was shilled in.
But I'm actually of the opinion she's not
a shill.
No, let's listen.
With praise.
Do you think you're standing next to a
jihadist right now in the Oval Office?
No, I don't.
I met with a man who's a very
rational person.
The president even repeatedly throwing Maumdani a lifeline.
Are you affirming that you think President Trump
is a fascist?
I've spoken about- That's okay, you can
just say yes.
Okay, sorry.
Okay, it's easier than explaining it.
That was just, that was fantastic.
Just say yes.
Yeah, because he, for one thing, Maumdani is
one of the best obfuscators we've seen for
a long time.
In other words, everything, you can ask him
anything, he's gonna say, I don't care about
that.
I care about the citizens of New York.
I don't care about that.
I wanna help New York prices to go
down in New York.
I don't care about that.
New York is what I'm thinking about.
So he, that's his basic, you know, his
basic shield to any question.
He was about to go into that, but
then it would have blown the joke.
And so Trump jumped in there with this,
go ahead, say yes.
He says, it's easier if you don't have
to explain it to him.
In other words, he basically said, we both
know what we're doing here.
We know we're, we knew this is theater.
I call you a jihadist, you call me
a fascist.
Just say yes, it's easier.
That just, just, I mean, that was a
rug pull.
I loved it.
I thought that was fascinating.
Affirming that you think President Trump is a
fascist?
I've spoken about- That's okay, you can
just say yes.
Okay.
It's easier, it's easier than explaining it.
Why did you fly here, aren't trains greener?
Now that was a shill question.
Why didn't you fly here, aren't, I mean,
come on.
Is that ABC?
Is that the new ABC who's asking that?
But it's not a new ABC, there's an
old, it's a, the new thing is CBS.
No, but that's what I'm saying.
It's like, since when did ABC start to
make jokes about, to the Democrats, about climate
change?
I don't- Well, you know, I'm not
gonna dismiss your thoughts on this completely, though
I just don't see her being a shill.
Okay, well, anyway, you may not be able
to hear it, but Trump says it's too
long to take the train.
Why did you fly here, aren't trains greener?
That's a very long drive, I'll stick up
for you.
Do you see Democrat policy specifically as being
a problem?
We had some interesting conversations, some of his
ideas really are the same ideas that I
have.
And Mom Donnie, repeatedly returning the favor.
When I spoke to New Yorkers who had
voted for the president, when we asked those
New Yorkers who had voted for the president,
there were more New Yorkers who voted for
President Trump in the most recent presidential election
because of that focus on cost of living.
There are many things in our city where
we- I mean, wow, wow, he's just
upping, the big upping the president there.
What is happening here?
The most recent presidential election because of that
focus on cost of living.
There are many things in our- Is
Mom Donnie a double agent?
Could that be possible?
Our city where we have to own the
responsibility of the things that existed long before
the president was the president.
Political experts say Mom Donnie right now is
the avatar for affordability, in a position where
he can provide the president some credibility on
the issue.
But now Mom Donnie, once thought to be
a liability for House Democrats across the country,
may have become their greatest strength.
The president was also asked if he would
quote, allow Mom Donnie to make NYPD personnel
decisions.
The president responded, that would be up to
the mayor-elect.
He was also asked if he would feel
comfortable living in New York again.
He said, absolutely.
Adding, we agree on a lot more than
I would have thought.
So- Oh, this is properly quoted.
Can I- I have to discuss the
analysis from the right, which is kind of
rosy, which claims that Trump used this moment
to elevate Mom Donnie as the- No,
he did not.
To elevate Mom Donnie so the exact scheme
that I discussed in that column I wrote,
which is to turn the Democrats toward the
Bernie Sanders side of the party and make
them all think that socialism is the way
to go nationwide, when it will just kill
them in any presidential election.
Because it's a singular situation in New York.
And there's a couple other places which would
vote like this.
You know, they think they know it all.
And also, there's Mom Donnie, I'm sorry, I'm
always gonna have trouble getting his name out
smoothly.
Mom Donnie is going to have difficulty when
he gets back to New York by the
naysayers there.
Why did you meet with Trump and the
DSAs in particular?
Why'd you meet with Trump?
You shouldn't have met with Trump.
Why are you meeting with Trump?
He's the enemy, blah, blah, blah.
You don't think the DSA approved it and
set him up for it and gave him
the talking points and they just never thought
that Trump would do this?
No.
You think they're smarter than that?
I don't think Mom Donnie's run by anybody.
Really?
I think once he got in, I think
he's full of himself.
I think he's really convinced he doesn't need
their help.
Kind of like a Gavin Newsom type deal.
Newsom's the same way.
He's not run by anybody right now.
I mean, I'm sure he'd love to.
Smoking his own dope, is that what you
think?
Yeah.
Well, Mom Donnie was on- He doesn't
seem like the kind of guy who's, I
mean, he's not an idiot.
No.
You don't need to be much more than
above an idiot to be a politician.
It's like show business for ugly people.
No, but it's useful.
It is useful.
So Mom Donnie was on with Manhans Welker
this morning on NBC Meet the Press.
So this is hot breaking, breaking right off,
hot off the press, breaking news.
Were you surprised by the warm welcome that
you got?
You know, I was looking forward to having
the meeting with the president to speak about
the needs of the eight and a half
million people who call the same city we
love home.
Yep, yep, that's, you're so right.
It's exactly- It's all he talks about.
It's beautiful.
Yeah, it's pretty good.
And to speak about the needs of the
eight and a half million people who call
the same city we love home.
And to speak, frankly, about the affordability crisis
that is pushing so many of them out
of those five boroughs.
And I found in the meeting that I
had with the president a productive one and
a meeting that came back again and again
to the central themes of the campaign that
we ran.
The cost of housing, the cost of childcare,
the cost of groceries, the cost of utilities.
And it showed that this is an opportunity
to now start to deliver so that people
can do more than just aspire to struggle
in New York City, but actually to be
able to live there.
But did you expect it to be so
chummy?
What was going through your head when-
Take two.
Come on, Kristen, you can do it.
You were standing there.
You know, I thought again and again about
what it would mean for New Yorkers if
we could establish a productive- There it
is.
It's perfect.
I'm just thinking about New Yorkers, people.
Relationship that would focus on the issues that
those New Yorkers stay up late at night
thinking about.
Because so often in our politics, we try
and tell people what they should be worried
about, what they should be concerned about.
When you actually ask New Yorkers and you
listen to them, you hear it come back
to the issues that animated, not just the
conversation the president and I had with the
press after our meeting, but frankly in the
meeting itself.
It was a conversation where we spoke about
the need to deliver on this agenda.
And I appreciated that when the president, when
we had that meeting, it wasn't just in
the Oval Office.
He also took me into the cabinet room.
And there we were looking at portraits of
presidents of years gone by.
And we admired a portrait of FDR. And
in many ways, when I think about the
candidacy that we've put forward, it looks to
Fiorella LaGuardia as the greatest mayor in New
York City history.
You can't tell the story of LaGuardia without
telling the story of FDR and the story
of a relationship with the federal government that
finally delivered at the scale of the crisis
it was facing.
Now, you would be uniquely positioned to explain
the relevance of the FDR painting they took
the picture in front of.
I don't know what specifically you're asking me
to do here.
Well, tell us about FDR. What was-
Well, FDR was, yeah, FDR was a socialist
or a populist in some ways, if you
think about it.
In fact, that's the reason I think he
got reelected so many times, because he was
actually a populist, but he put in socialist
agenda or left-wing agenda.
But he was a populist, just like Trump.
And LaGuardia is like the same kind of
an analog of this Mamdani guy.
He's trying to put it together that this
is the same relationship.
And Trump, by the way, picked up on
this and claimed that he was now being
equated with FDR. Yes.
And that got picked up by all the
right-wingers.
Everybody picked that up.
Everybody picked up on the Trump-FDR connection.
And so this whole thing is, I mean,
this Mamdani guy is terrific as a subtle
propagandist.
I don't know where he got these skills.
I think he was probably discovered just by
the DSA guy, by the same people that
found the guy with the tattoo.
And AOC.
And AOC, yeah.
And he's an actor.
He said it, I think in one of
the clips we had some time ago.
He's a theater kid.
He was a theater kid in the eighth
grade.
He was bitching about some thing in one
of the clips we had some months back
about some play he was in when he
was a kid.
And yeah, he's a theater kid.
So he's a phony.
But in the greater scheme of things, this
is fantastic for Trump.
I think he really handled this.
The FDR painting, apparently, he had it pulled
out of the archives.
Hey, hang that thing up there.
My Mamdani's coming.
I got an idea.
Yeah, I wonder if he showed him the
auto pen picture.
You know, he's got that wall of presidents
goes right to Biden and Biden's picture is
a picture of the auto pen.
So when it came to affordability, which is
really the whole point that the president is
trying to gain some ground on here, because
that's what Mamdani won on, ran on and
won on, affordability, affordability.
He finagled it so that it wasn't about
freezing rents and screwing owners of apartment buildings
and homes.
No, it was quite the opposite.
It was a complete Trumpian love fest on
how we're going to make housing more affordable.
We had a meeting today.
I'm sorry.
Yeah, build more.
Yes, build more.
That's a yes.
Do I need to play the clip or
since you already said it?
I just wanted to get build more in
there because that's Trump.
We had a meeting today that actually surprised
me.
He wants to see no crime.
He wants to see housing being built.
He wants to see rents coming down, all
things that I agree with.
Now we may disagree how we get there,
the rent coming down.
I think one of the things I really
gleaned very, very much today, he'd like to
see him come down ideally by building a
lot of additional housing.
That's the ultimate way.
He agrees with that and so do I.
But if I read the newspapers and the
stories, I don't hear that.
See what he's doing here?
I mean, you agree with that, don't you,
Zoran?
Zoran, Zoran, you agree with that.
But I read the newspapers.
I don't read any of that.
So I'm telling you now, it's build more.
But I heard him say it today and
I think that's- I heard him say
it.
A very positive step.
No, I don't expect, I expect to be
helping him, not hurting him, a big help
because I want New York City to be
great.
Look, I love New York City.
It's where I come from.
I spent a lot of years there.
Now I'm right here.
We took a big setback with the mayor
that we had, Dame de Blasio.
I thought it was a tremendous setback for
the city.
I think this mayor can do some things
that are gonna be really great.
Perfect.
Bill, I heard him say it.
He didn't say it.
Of course he didn't say it, but I
heard him say it.
Trump is eyeballing Queens and Brooklyn, but Queens
in particular because there's a limit on height.
There's a height limitation.
The whole city or the whole borough, you
can't build a bunch of skyscrapers like you
can in Manhattan, which is like where you
don't wanna build anymore in Manhattan.
I mean, there's only a few places left.
Maybe that Mamdani guy can get that restriction
removed.
That's the idea.
They're gonna get the restriction removed on the
buildings and they're gonna build up, they're gonna
build up into the air, Queens to make
it a mini Manhattan and that's money in
the bank for everybody.
Lots of jobs, cheaper housing.
It'll lessen the stress on the housing market
there.
It's a huge winner and they both know
it.
I think that's what they talked about.
Back to Manhans Welker, final clip.
In that press conference with President Trump, a
reporter asked you whether you believe that President
Trump is in fact a fascist, a word
that you've used in the past.
You were about to answer, then President Trump
sort of jumped in and he said, quote,
that's okay.
You can just say yes.
It's easier than explaining it.
So Mr. Mayor-elect, just to be very
clear, do you think that President Trump is
a fascist?
How do you think he answered?
He's gotta go back to his New York
fallback.
No, I don't think so.
No, no, it's worse.
He should have done that.
Do you think that President Trump is a
fascist?
And after President Trump said that, I said
yes.
After Trump told you to say yes.
So you do.
And that's something that I've said in the
past, I say it today, and I think
what I appreciated about the conversation that I
had with the President was that we were
not shy about the places of disagreement about
the politics that has brought us to this
moment.
And we also wanted to focus on what
it could look like to deliver on a
shared analysis of an affordability crisis for New
Yorkers.
You've also said in the past that President
Trump has engaged in a, quote, attack on
our democracy.
You've called him a despot.
Do you still believe President Trump is a
threat to the democracy?
Everything that I've said in the past, I
continue to believe, and that's the thing that
I think is important in our politics is
that we don't shy away from where we
have disagreements.
This is a slick answer, by the way.
Everything I've said in the past, he's not
gonna say yes.
He says, everything I've said in the past,
I still believe today.
Everything that I've said in the past, I
continue to believe, and that's the thing that
I think is important in our politics is
that we don't shy away from where we
have disagreements, but we understand what it is
that brings us to that table, because I'm
not coming into the Oval Office to make
a point or make a stand.
I'm coming in there to deliver for New
Yorkers.
A few weeks ago, I was asked by
a reporter three words to describe myself.
I said, New York City, and that's what
animated that conversation.
How do we deliver for the people of
New York City?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is a good game.
It was good.
I was very delighted with this, with what
happened.
It was fun to watch.
I have a bunch of clips that kind
of follow up on this on socialism BS.
All right.
Because this was a series of, this was,
I don't know why this commentary came up.
I think, well, why did it come up?
Because we're talking about socialism now more than
we used to, and this is from NTD,
which of course is a right-wing operation
for all practical purposes that I still think
do some of the best news coverage in
the world.
But let's play these clips because I have
the word, I have the letters BS written
here because there's some very interesting BS.
Just ahead of a White House visit by
New York City Mayor-elect and self-described
democratic socialist Zohra Mamdani, the House of Representatives
passed a resolution denouncing socialism.
NTD's Washington- But they had a resolution
denouncing socialism?
Yes, I have a, you want to hear
about that first?
That's what we're paying them to do?
I resolve.
This is the, here, I have that, we
can do an aside and play.
Yeah, we'll do an aside, sure.
And I got to find it on here.
It's the, oh, it's not the G2.
I got some funny clips today.
There is a long, maybe it's in the
socialism series.
Well, they don't seem very long, they seem
very, the next one seems even shorter than
this one.
Yeah, this next one's the shortest one because
it's got a point they try to make.
There was, I thought I had it on
here.
They had, yes, they had a big meeting,
they, huh, yes, the House went and made
an anti-socialist statement just before the meeting.
This is a complete waste of the-
Waste of time and money.
Yeah, well, let's play these clips first and
see if I can figure it out.
Yeah, okay, all right, here we go.
Pass a resolution denouncing socialism.
NTD's Washington correspondent, Jack Bradley has the details.
What do socialists stand for?
Tax raising, job killing policies like defunding the
police, shuttering prisons, massive unfunded spending increases, and
even government-run grocery stores.
Oh, so it wasn't just a resolution, they
talked about it.
They had a whole debate about it?
Yeah.
So now I go to socialism BS2?
Yeah, well, first I have to comment on
what this guy just said.
Socialism, and anyone can go look up the
definition, you can do it right now.
It's not about defunding the police.
It's not about, in fact, just the opposite.
No, you want to have the police to
crack down on the citizens.
It's not about releasing, closing prisons and letting
one out, letting everyone out.
It's putting people in prison.
That's just the opposite.
So what are they talking about here?
That's good.
I don't know.
Socialism is, it's bull crap, that's the point.
What they did is they just did a
resolution.
We think Democrats suck.
They should just proclaim that.
Yeah, that would have been better.
All right, BS2?
Yeah.
The House of Representatives passed a resolution on
Friday denouncing socialism in all of its forms
and the implementation of socialist policies in the
U.S. It was passed by a vote
of 285 to 98 with two voting present.
So they got a big vote.
So everybody voted, oh, we hate socialism.
You know, this is like, spend more time
actually doing real work here in Congress.
But okay, we hate socialism.
They made a point of it in part
three.
Let me look it up here.
Let me look it up.
Let me see.
Oh, they don't have the full text yet?
No, it just happened.
Oh, they still could release the text.
Denounce, it's denouncing the horrors of socialism.
Yeah, yeah.
The horrors, the horrors of socialism.
More horrors.
We're talking about a lot of horrors recently.
Where socialist ideology necessitates a concentration of power
that has time and time again collapsing the
communist regime's totalitarian rule and brutal dictatorships.
Whereas socialism has repeatedly led to famine What
is this?
History 101?
This is so dumb.
Okay.
Socialism BS3.
The legislation opposing.
Sorry.
This might be the explanation we're looking for.
The legislation opposing socialism in the US was
introduced by Florida Congresswoman Maria Salazar, the daughter
of Cuban immigrants who fled the communist regime
of Fidel Castro.
This has nothing to do with political parties.
This is a moral vote.
In other words, this has everything to do
with political parties.
And I'm the spokeshole because I came from
Cuba.
Against an ideology that has destroyed millions and
millions of families and murdered more than 100
million lives.
There were 63 co-sponsors on this bill,
but they singled out Venezuela.
I didn't notice that before.
It murdered lives, not people?
Let me, let's hear that again.
That has destroyed millions and millions of families
and murdered more than 100 million lives.
Your life has been murdered.
I think the Democrats should put a proclamation
before the house, a proclamation against capitalism.
You know, just to even it out a
little bit.
Let's do a tit for tat.
There were 63 co-sponsors on this bill,
but they singled out Venezuela as a once
thriving democracy that was taken over by a
socialist regime.
Now the country has the highest rate of
inflation in the world.
They destroyed the richest country in South America.
They implemented these government run supermarkets and they
have empty shelves.
And the Venezuelans would make fun of the
Cubans 25 years ago saying that it was
impossible for that to happen in Venezuela.
They had the largest reserves of oil in
the world.
They were a very strong democracy.
They were not an island.
It's time to denounce socialism in this country
because just like it happened to the Venezuelans,
it could happen to the Americans.
A concurrent resolution denouncing socialism awaits in the
Senate introduced by Florida Republican Senator Rick Scott.
Okay, so this is interesting.
She entered this resolution in 2023.
This has just been sitting around the exact
same text.
Yeah, but now it's got 69 co-sponsors.
And we threw in Venezuela.
I don't think that was in the originals.
Throw in some Venezuela.
Oh no, it is.
The implementation of socialism in Venezuela has turned
a once prosperous country into a failed state
with the highest rate of inflation in the
world.
Where is President Thomas Jefferson, author of the
Declaration of Independence?
How about co-author?
Wrote, to take from one, because it is
thought that his own industry and that of
his father's has acquired too much in order
to spare the others or whose fathers have
not exercised equal industry and skill is to
violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the
guarantee to everyone of free exercise of his
industry and the fruits acquired by it.
And then we have President James Madison, the
father of the Constitution, wrote that it's not
just government nor is property secure on it,
blah, blah, blah.
What a waste, what a waste.
I know.
It's just a waste.
It's pretty funny though.
It's just a resolution at the end of
the day and we've talked about this before.
It means nothing.
It's just that we resolve, so what?
Yeah, in fact, isn't that what it says
at the top?
Concurrent resolution.
The Congress, okay, resolve, but this is the
whole, this is what it's all about.
Resolved by the House of Representatives, that the
Senate concurring, that Congress denounces socialism in all
its forms and opposes the implementation of socialist
policies in the United States.
Okay, thanks.
We, you oppose it, we get it.
And she's the poster child.
Oh, my parents came from Cuba.
Okay.
So there you go.
Then there was, I don't know if, this
probably didn't come out before you did your
DHM plug, but Kevin Hassett, who was the
National Economic Committee director, council director, the jobs
report came out.
Oh, the jobs report for September.
Yeah, I'm fascinated by the way they presented
this because this jobs report is negative.
It should be 150,000 jobs, otherwise we're
losing jobs.
Isn't that the number?
Yes, 150,000 is the turnover rate.
150,000 is the typical need for new
jobs because 150,000 people a month die.
Either retire, die.
Die due to socialism.
Well, they can die.
Their lives.
Podcasters die.
Their lives have been killed.
They die or they retire.
Yeah.
A lot of people retire.
Every month this happens and you have to
replace those 150,000 people to stay even.
Yeah.
So if the number's less than one, then
people have to keep remembering.
And for some reason, and I don't know
why, all the media, well, it's pretty good.
No, it's not.
Well, here's Kevin Hassett and he's just giddy
and, I'm sorry, jitty and smiling.
The September numbers were absolutely like hit out
of the park.
You know, as you said, a double.
What?
Knocked it out of the park.
A double is not common.
Well, it's very rare, but if you dig
down into the details, there's actually proof in
the pudding that President Trump's policies are really
working.
And here's what it is.
No.
There was a big surge in construction workers
and we went back and traced it back
to, do you remember President Trump said we're
going to expense new factory construction?
In September, we counted 11 major companies that
broke ground on new factories and hired those
construction workers.
And the reason why that's so positive is
that those factories are going to fill up
with new workers and start making stuff and
so on.
And so President Trump's policy of onshoring production,
creating great jobs for American workers was really,
really visible in this report.
And of course it shocked experts because they've
been naysayers about the president's policy all along.
So Hassett is just lying.
But what I think happened here is because
we had a 50,000 jobs report in
August.
It wasn't August or July.
All of a sudden the news media says,
well, that's double.
That's double what it was.
Well, that must be good.
How dumb can you be?
Even the podcasters know better than you.
So now I think the news that these
were no longer illegal immigrant construction workers might've
been something you want to highlight.
And the idea that there's 11 new factories
broke ground.
Yeah.
And that'll take two years.
Big deal.
Well, that is the policy.
Hey, stick it in there.
We'll cut a ribbon and there we go.
Let's go have a drink.
You are negative, Nelly.
I think the president is bringing production back.
I think he is.
I think it's a good thing.
Yeah.
Like the Foxconn deal he did last year.
That was bull crap.
Well, I am hopeful.
Let's put it that way.
I am an optimist.
I'm an optimist on this.
I'm not saying it's not a good idea.
Yeah, but I'm an optimist that it'll happen.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying.
Is it going to happen?
I have a couple of questions because I
got to bring something up with you.
Uh-oh.
This is the G20 farce clip.
The G20 has had a big meeting in
South Africa.
Did any of our people actually go?
Did we even send anybody?
Well, they had a picture.
This is what got me triggered on this
whole topic.
They showed a picture of everybody there and
it said the United States and Russia.
Putin can't go because South Africa will arrest
him because he's been indicted by the International
Criminal Court.
Yes, ICC.
And so he won't go.
So that's great, isn't it?
So you just have it in South Africa.
He won't go and Trump thinks that South
Africa sucks.
So he didn't go.
But so they just have the group photo
and I say, wait a minute, there's 20
people in the group photo.
How can that be when there should be
two missing?
But it turns out, and I ended up
doing some research.
It turns out.
Perplexity, who went to the G20?
No, I used Grok.
It turns out that Malaysia was given a
guest pass.
No.
And Egypt was given a guest pass.
Oh, so they made up for the 20.
So it was the G20 plus two.
Well, it was the G18 plus two is
what it amounted to.
But I have some questions to ask after
you play this clip.
The leaders of the group of 20 have
adopted a declaration at this year's summit calling
for the peaceful resolution of disputes and opposing
the use of force to gain territory.
The two day meeting opened on Saturday in
the South African city of Johannesburg under the
themes of solidarity, equality and sustainability.
This G20 leaders summit has a responsibility not
to allow the integrity and the credibility of
the G20 to be weakened.
The leaders said in the declaration that they
affirm their commitment to act in accordance with
international law and the Charter of the United
Nations for peaceful settlement of disputes.
They also said that all states must refrain
from the threat or use of force to
seek to acquire territory against the territorial integrity
and sovereignty of any state.
The declaration comes amid armed conflicts in parts
of the world, such as Ukraine.
The question now is how to ensure its
effectiveness with key figures absent from the summit.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is not attending the
gathering.
He is the subject of an arrest warrant
by the International Criminal Court of alleged war
crimes.
South Africa is a member of the court.
US President Donald Trump is also skipping the
meeting, claiming that minority white people in South
Africa are being persecuted.
OK, what's your question?
OK, so the G20 is supposed to be
what?
The top 20.
Economies in the world.
Top 20 G, top 20 G's, the OG's.
So we're talking about I'm going to give
you the top 20 countries in the world.
By the way, we're over twice the size
of of everybody else.
And if I'm not mistaken, well, I mean,
we're massive compared to anyone under China.
But.
When I think in the late 90s and.
I.
They were talking about how China was going
to overtake us.
Yeah.
By 2020 or whatever.
Oh, yeah.
This.
No.
Here's the top 20 United States, China, Germany,
Japan, India, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Canada, Brazil,
Russia, Spain, South Korea, Australia.
Mexico, Indonesia, Netherlands, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Switzerland.
OK.
Now, when you look at the G20.
There is no Switzerland.
And why not?
Well, there is no Netherlands.
Really?
There was no there was no there was
no representative.
But they're not part of the G20.
They're not part.
Well, there's no no.
There was no representative.
But here's what we have.
And by the way, by the way, South
Africa is not in the top 20 list.
Why are they not only in the G20,
but why are they hosting it?
It's dying.
The wine is dynamite.
And meanwhile, here's the here's the here's three.
Phonies that are in the G20, actually four,
if you can't South Africa's does shouldn't be
in it.
The European Union had two people.
Yeah.
Ursula and who else?
This character.
Antonio Costa, Costa, he's he's the president of
the council.
Yes.
So they had to do.
Switzerland wasn't there.
Netherlands is not included, but they have, you
know, all these other guys that Canada or
not Canada, but UK, France, Germany, they're all
there.
And here's another one that shouldn't be there.
The African Union.
Well, the thing was, the whole this is
bullcrap.
Yeah.
G20 is a fraud.
That's why we didn't go.
And the whole thing was about climate change.
I said, yeah, I saw Ursula speaking.
Oh, no, we're still staying the course.
Don't worry about it.
But you're not going to get any money
from us.
No, I hope that we can maintain that
status and we don't know.
I mean, she was even saying to South
Africa, you're not getting it.
She's she's she's cheap to about climate change.
Climate finance.
But the point is, is that this G20
is a scam.
Well, I like how they started off by
saying we resolve that we should have no
more wars because that's basically what they said.
Useful.
No more wars.
No more, please.
Meanwhile, in the United Nations, the U.S.
plan for Gaza has been approved by the
U.N. Security Council.
The vote endorses U.S. President Donald Trump's
peace plan, also known as the 20 point
ceasefire plan.
The plan proposes the creation of a board
led by Trump to oversee governance and reconstruction
in Gaza.
It also calls for the establishment of an
international stabilization force.
While the proposal outlines a potential path towards
an independent Palestinian state, the language remains weak,
offering neither a timeline nor any guarantees.
13 out of 15 members voted in favor
of the resolution.
Russia, which submitted a separate proposal on Gaza
last week, along with China, abstained the vote
but did not use its veto power.
Trump applauded the vote, calling it one of
the biggest approvals in the history of the
United Nations.
Hamas, on the other hand, opposed the resolution.
The group believes it fails to meet Palestinian
people's political and humanitarian demands and that it
does not safeguard their rights.
So that's all taken care of.
Is that AI?
No, that's Euronews.
No, was that even Euronews?
That was.
Let me see.
Yeah, that was your own.
It's gotten so bad lately, so bad.
But meanwhile, we still have to sigh up
everybody in Europe.
We got to get everybody all excited, all
upset.
And finally, it reached the homeland, the old
country.
Yes, we've got drones over Holland.
Dutch military personnel opened fire on unmanned aerial
vehicles with a local air base.
But officials say the drones left the area
and were not recovered.
Stop.
Wait a minute.
The Dutch military, Dutch, Dutch air base.
Yes, but there's a military, isn't it?
It's I think it's the Air Force base.
OK, and they opened fire and they couldn't
hit the drone.
Missed it completely.
What kind of bonehead?
What kind of training do they have?
You can't hit the drone.
Believe me, this is a big it's all
in Dutch.
So there's nothing I could play clip wise.
But they apparently they had lasers.
The lasers didn't get it out.
They had rifles, but they're not sure if
they had anti drone weapons.
The Dutch now they couldn't shoot.
No, a little drone flying around over their
heads.
And now all the Dutch, the Dutch love
American words.
And now the so you hear him talking
like this.
We're going to do drones.
German, we're going to say German, which is
jamming.
So now everyone Holland's talking about.
Hey, I'm going to need the drones.
Gemma needs Gemma.
So they didn't jam them either.
But officials say the drones left the area
and were not recovered.
We're going away by the Independent and the
BBC report.
The Defense Ministry confirmed the engagement and say
there are no immediate reports of casualties or
confirmed damage.
Later the same day, Eindhoven Airport, which serves
both civilian passengers and the military, briefly suspended
flights after multiple drone sightings.
Sky News reports operations have since resumed while
investigators work to determine who was behind the
incursions.
Authorities describe the episodes as part of a
widening pattern of mysterious drone activity near military
sites and airports across northern Europe, prompting heightened
security and urgent inquiries.
Defense officials have urged the public to avoid
speculation and to report any sightings as investigations
continue.
So you've got this guy in Holland who
was the drone guru and he actually found
out that the previous drone sighting.
Remember, we had a report boots on the
ground.
One of our producers, a drone drone fell
out of the sky.
So he he saw two dudes flying a
drone over one of the airports and they
had press passes.
This is all a scam.
This is a black.
Yes, they had press passes.
Oh, no, we just we just go away
to account for them, not shooting down the
drone.
Of course, this is all just a sigh
up.
And the best, though, is the Russian spy
ship off the coast of England.
A Russian spy ship has been spotted off
the coast of Scotland.
And according to the UK Secretary, it's pointed
lasers at an RAF monitoring it.
He's called the incident deeply dangerous.
So what do we know?
The Yanta is one of Russia's ships designed
for gathering intelligence and mapping out undersea cables,
according to the UK's Defense Secretary John Healy.
It's the second time this year the Yanta
has been spotted near UK waters after the
vessel received a warning from the Royal Navy
in January.
At BBC Verify, we've followed the British aircraft
that was likely deployed to track the ship.
Vessels like the Yanta often turn their tracking
systems off or even broadcast false locations, which
means tracking it using publicly available tools is
difficult.
Well, that's what you do if you're a
spy ship.
You're not going to broad.
Oh, oh, we're a spy ship.
We're broadcasting our location.
Then they turn it off.
Oh, no.
We couldn't reach it through public services.
Lady.
Now, we've checked its flight path using flight
radar 24, which monitors air traffic in real
time.
It shows a Poseidon P8 surveillance aircraft departing
from RAF Lossiemouth today at 930 a.m.
before it circled an area in the North
Sea and returned to base just after 2
p.m. We can't say for certain the
aircraft has been tracking the Yanta, but it's
the flight path that indicates that it's been
surveilling the same patch of ocean, which matches
statements provided by Defence Secretary John Healy.
So that is the actual BBC with the
biggest non report I've ever heard about something
they have BBC Verify.
You verified nothing.
So let's get the the news straight from
the horse's mouth.
This is John Healy, I think.
Yes, he is the defence secretary.
As I speak, a Russian spy ship, the
Yanta, is on the edge of UK waters
north of Scotland, having entered the UK's wider
waters over the last few weeks.
This is a vessel.
Why?
Hold on.
That's called wider waters.
That means they're still in the international area.
No, he says they just call it whether,
you know, New York City is in the
wider waters.
Yeah, they're an international water.
Yeah, of course.
The wider waters is on the edge of
UK waters north of Scotland, having entered the
UK's wider waters over the last few weeks.
This is a vessel designed for gathering intelligence
and mapping our undersea cables.
We deployed a Royal Navy frigate and RAF
P8 planes to monitor and track this vessel's
every move.
Every move.
During which the Yanta directed lasers at our
pilots.
Lasers?
That Russian action is deeply dangerous.
Stop it for a second.
It directed like one of those pen light
lasers?
What do you think it was?
Well, it was probably, you know, a harassment.
It seems to me if you're if they're
aiming lasers at you, that that's an attack
and you can blow them out of the
water.
Don't you think?
Not with a P28.
Well, no, but you'd have a fighter escort.
This is this nothing going on here.
This is just to get people all upset
about Russia.
BS.
Total.
That our pilots, that Russian action is deeply
dangerous.
Deeply dangerous.
Then shoot them.
What?
Then shoot them out of the water if
it's dangerous.
No, he's going to make a threat here
at the end.
And this is the second time this year
that this ship, the Yantar, has deployed to
UK waters.
So my message to Russia and to Putin
is this.
We see you.
We know what you're doing.
And if the Yantar travels south this week,
we are ready.
Oh, please.
We are ready, I tell you.
So while that's happening, it seems like peace
talks are cropping up once again.
This will take place in the G20 nation
that did not attend the G20 summit of
Switzerland.
Ukraine will begin talks with the US on
the 28 point peace plan suggested jointly by
Russia and the US in Switzerland in the
coming days, according to Ukrainian officials.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Saturday he
had appointed a delegation to discuss with Washington
the plan to halt the war.
Also on Saturday, Zelensky and his wife attended
a ceremony in Kiev to commemorate the great
famine that Soviet leader Joseph Stalin imposed on
Ukraine, which led to millions of deaths in
the early 1930s.
Meanwhile, Russia launched 104 drones in overnight attacks
on Ukraine, as well as one ballistic missile.
According to Ukraine's armed forces, 89 of the
drones were either shot down or jammed.
However, locations were hit by attacks.
In Odessa, at least two people were injured
by the attacks, according to officials.
109 drones and a ballistic missile and two.
That's what they sent over.
They can say whatever they want about how
many they downed.
Eighty nine episodes, at least 20 or so
got through.
Yeah.
And two people were injured.
Yes.
How does this how does this math ever
add up when they make these reports?
Well, it came from, according to Ukraine's reporting.
So it doesn't add up.
But even are they saying, are they exaggerating
the number of drones or are they underestimating
the number of casualties?
And we just presume it's all just bullcrap.
That's what I'm thinking.
And for some reason, a gay Scott Besant
is is is answering questions about the peace
negotiation.
So I find interesting that Besant got to
do with the price of bread.
Well, here's here he is with Manhans Welker.
Let's talk about Ukraine.
U.S. lawmakers on both sides of the
aisle, Ukrainian officials who I've spoken to say
the peace plan for Russia and Ukraine as
written only benefits Russia.
Let me ask you simply, Mr. Secretary, was
this 28 point plan written by Russia?
I have no information on that, Kristen, but
I can tell you, I love this.
Was it written by Russia?
Because we know that Putin really controls Trump.
Simply, Mr. Secretary, was this 28 point plan
written by Russia?
I have no information on that, Kristen, but
I can tell you, I am the highest
ranking U.S. official to have visited Ukraine.
I went last February and when I went
last February, I went with an economic cooperation
agreement between the U.S. and Ukraine.
President Zelensky pushed back against it.
The same people you're just talking about, they're
pushed back against it.
Mainstream media pushed back against it.
You know what?
We did it three months later, and now
it is the centerpiece for the Ukrainian economy
that this agreement is even funding military plants
for the very innovative military sector in Ukraine.
So, you know, I would be very careful
and conventional wisdom.
And to go back to your question, it
is a peace negotiation.
A negotiation.
Hmm.
Uh, let's get some information on the negotiation
from the guy who always is in the
know back to his sweaters.
He's not wearing the suit anymore.
Andrew Rasoulis, everybody from Canada.
Yeah.
So we have to remember, this is a
draft.
The authors are Bitcoff for the United States
and Dmitry for the Russians.
The Russians officially say these are only contacts.
There is no plan.
So we're at that kind of stage now.
The other thing we have to remember is
that the Americans have sent a department of
the army team, including the secretary of the
army to Kiev to talk to Zelensky about
this stuff today.
Lots of moving pieces.
What we what my takeaway, though, is that
the American proposals slashed with the Russians kind
of reflects the battlefield reality on the ground
in the sense that, yes, the Ukrainians, for
example, would have to walk back from the
rest of the demolition from the Donbass, like
the the fortress belt.
That would then be declared a demilitarized zone.
In turn, the Russians would stop advancing below
in the two of large Zaporizhia and Kurshan.
So what we're getting here is, I think,
a reflection of battlefield realities.
The balance of forces do favor the Russians.
So and I've always said for some time
now that Ukraine at the end of the
day will come out with a shorter end
of the stick, which this plan implies.
But again, I emphasize that reflects battlefield reality
when the Europeans and the Ukrainians say they
reject it out of hand and they want
their plan.
They don't seem to have the military power
to do that, actually.
So what's back on the table, and we've
discussed this before, is the difference between de
jure and de facto de jure being legal
and de facto being, I guess, a fact.
20% of the country, though, is what
we're talking about.
As you know, Andrew, the Donbass, Donetsk, Luhansk,
this is an area that the Ukrainians have
been fighting to try and hold on to.
And Zelensky, the leader of Ukraine, has said
he cannot cede any Ukrainian territory.
I wonder how this is going to play
out now.
The Europeans are saying we're not going to
accept this either.
So what's the path forward here?
Well, the path forward on the ceding territory
is very legalistic.
There are two terms, de jure, which means
by law, which means as a matter of
fact.
Now, the Ukrainians have for months now recognized
that they lack the military strength to push
the Russians out of that 20% of
territory back to the 91 borders, including Crimea.
So the Ukrainians have said they are looking
at a de facto recognition and then diplomatically,
they would try to work at resolving this
over the long term.
The Russians, of course, insist on legally, like
de jure, by law, which they've said they've
annexed.
That's a very important distinction.
And that distinction could actually lead to a
diplomatic understanding between the two sides.
The other factor that we're gathering from this
plan is that while the Ukrainians would not
be required to legally recognize this, they will
only do it as a matter of fact.
The United States, on the other hand, would
recognize the Donbass and Crimea as legally part
of Russia.
So that would be a bit of a
more of a compromise for the Russian side,
a give for the Russians.
So there's a lot of moving parts in
here.
Yes.
Doesn't sound like anything's happening to me.
People do say de jure mostly.
Does your instead of de jure?
No, de jure, he said.
De jure.
Well, he's Canadian.
I give him a pass.
And de facto means in fact, as in.
Yes, it's the practical purpose, the practical purpose
is what's going on.
It's the fact, Jack.
Yeah.
Well, I don't know.
That was Trump once.
That was not his best.
That was not his best.
No, that was not his best.
No good.
We can let's see, we can talk.
Well, I have.
I have.
Venezuela with Rubio.
Well, I don't have that, so I'd be
interested in it.
OK, this is with Margaret from this morning.
Face the numb nuts.
It is tomorrow that the Trump administration officially
will designate the Cartel de los Soles as
a foreign terrorist organization.
That's a cartel the Trump administration says is
linked to Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro.
Secretary Hedges says it gives the administration new
tools.
Nothing's on or off the table, he says.
Militarily, legally, what changes tomorrow?
What becomes possible?
Kill him when you have war.
The rules of engagement are lessened.
So, for example, we normally.
Sorry, that's not Rubio.
That's really all.
I'm sorry.
Do you still want to hear that?
Because that could be pretty boring.
This ramp, yeah, ramp, Paul's got nothing to
say.
He's not bringing it.
He's like I would have taken him out
of the loop, not read in on anything.
We don't know.
We don't get anything out of him.
Well, I have a question about, you know,
this Argentine or this Venezuelan thing is is
interesting to me.
They're sitting off the off the coast is
this huge oil field.
And they were not they were very prosperous,
just milking it and letting like, for example,
Citgo, which is the the offshoot of the
Venezuelan oil company, sell their gasoline directly here.
So it was almost a straight pipeline from
Venezuela to Citgo to the to the gas
pumps in the United States.
It was just making money, hands over fist.
And you'd swap that out for the sketchy
drug business.
No, no, no, no, no, I don't think
that's what that is.
Now, this is about Guyana, about them.
No, no, Guyana is a different story.
There's another.
Yeah, there's a field there.
But the point is, is they that Venezuela
has a field that is massive.
And they were making money hand over fist,
just pumping oil and shipping it to the
United States and elsewhere, and we're gladly accepting
it.
And then they swap it out.
Did they stop?
Well, I mean, I don't it doesn't make
any sense to me.
This is like, you know, having the golden
goose laying egg after egg.
And you're just saying, I mean, I'd rather
do something else.
Well, social socialism kills everything, man.
I really don't know.
It makes no sense.
Drug business is pretty profitable.
Yeah, but it's sketchy.
It's not as easy.
I mean, it's what it was easier than
you go.
You guys can pump all you want.
We'll take half the money.
I mean, you don't have to do anything
pretty much.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I mean, as far as I know, this
whole thing is only about the Guiana takeover.
So I'm I'm not sure what they're doing.
No, but I'm talking about the currently.
That's true.
But when Chavez got was running the show
before this Maduro dumb shit, there was you
know, they took it over, became a socialist
country and it started deteriorating.
Then it had nothing to do with the
Guiana then.
No.
And they were still sitting on a big
oil field by themselves.
They just went, what do they want the
other oil field for?
What difference does it make?
They're not exploiting it.
I mean, I can only tell you what
I know.
These are questions I cannot answer.
Right.
However, good to know that on this show,
the jingles are always useful, may take a
few years.
But the news always comes back around to
a jingle that we have.
So.
Yeah, baby.
Al Shabaab is back in business.
Where?
Boko Haram.
Well, Shabaab and Boko Haram is that the
same group?
I don't think so.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yes.
And by the way, did this do I
know what you're going to go with this?
You're going to go to the Minnesota, the
Nigerian rousting of the Christians.
Of course, they kill a lot of Muslims
to these nut.
Actually, I looked at that.
This is not I completely disagree with the
killing Christians.
It's not targeted Christian attack.
It's it's where they're attacking.
But I it's not.
And if you want to look at killing
Christians, go to Congo, which you won't do
because Trump's done a deal with them.
Yeah, but I'm not looking at that.
I'm looking at Minnesota.
OK, yeah, I'm letting you take it.
All right.
No, no, you're you are.
I'm glad you are wrong.
I was not going to say anything about
their killing Christians.
I disagree.
No, I never said that.
I said there.
Yes, I'm not wrong.
I just I'm in agreement with you.
So maybe I am wrong, but I'm in
agreement.
Yeah, you're wrong.
Is the biggest funder of Al Shabaab, the
Al Qaeda linked terror group in Somalia?
Actually, the Minnesota taxpayer, a federal investigator says,
yes.
An alarming claim first reported by City Journal,
which spoke with multiple former federal agents.
The U.S. Attorney's Office has charged dozens
of defendants across multiple schemes, including housing aid
fraud, pandemic child nutrition fraud and false billing
for autism therapy.
In total, prosecutors say these schemes have cost
Minnesota taxpayers billions of dollars.
There are people that have legitimately could use
those resources that are not getting those resources.
It's past criminal.
Minnesota is home to one of the country's
largest Somali communities.
Former state fraud investigator Kesh Magan himself, a
Somali American, wrote last year that it's uncomfortable
and true that nearly all defendants in these
major fraud cases come from that community.
They have taken advantage of the most generous
country in the world and one of the
most generous states in that country.
And according to City Journal, some of the
stolen money was sent overseas through informal cash
transfer networks.
Investigators say once that cash arrived in Somalia,
Al Shabaab took a cut.
Whether the sender intended that or not.
Pretty much across the board, people that I
spoke to said there really isn't a law
enforcement solution to this problem.
As you said, that's simply playing whack-a
-mole.
People pretty consistently told me that, you know,
there needs to be a policy change here.
Critics claim Minnesota leaders have tiptoed around the
issue, fearing a backlash from the state's powerful
Somali-American voting bloc.
Yeah, I think Waltz is going to go
down for this.
There was so much fraud during COVID in
Minnesota.
So this may be an attack on him.
They were just taking advantage of you, you
know, it's like you leave your door unlocked
and put a big sign out and say,
this house's door is unlocked.
What do you expect?
That's one way of looking at it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yes, there's a lot of corruption, John.
How about some TikTok clips?
How about one?
Oh, please.
How can you get I have they're not
going to get the list is not going
to get any shorter.
Well, you put what you put the clips
on here that we played last.
No, I, I, I X'ed them out
on my list.
I admit that.
That was a mistake.
OK, all right.
Well, then I'm OK.
Well, no, you're not.
No, I'm not really.
But OK, but let's let's do some stuff
that might be this.
Like let's do some stuff that reflects on
what's coming up.
Does Thanksgiving family dinner?
I'm so strong and I understand that I'm
going to get through it.
I understand that it
will be fine.
I get that.
But it's always fucking something.
How what?
I don't understand what that had to do
with Thanksgiving.
She doesn't want to go to the Thanksgiving
dinner, but she will.
And she knows it's going to be OK,
but she hates it.
Man, she's this.
And she's a bull crap.
This is I think that's real.
I don't I know the bull crap ones.
And I think these people are actually insane.
This is a woman who's acting like a
10 year old who doesn't want to go
to the store with mom.
No surprise.
Newsflash.
There are insane people on TikTok.
There are insane people everywhere.
Was that the Thanksgiving tantrum girl?
Yes, that was the Thanksgiving.
Well, then here's a no no family dinner
girl.
So year two of not having the holidays
with my family because I am a person
who thinks that everyone deserves rights to their
own body.
Rights to wait a minute.
Live.
Hold on a second.
What happened to we're celebrating killing the Indians?
That's what it is.
Let's go back to those things.
Let's go back to those good old days.
Love who they want to rights to eat
all of those things.
And hold on a second, right?
This woman is assuming that her family is
against the right to eat all of those
things.
And my family, some members do not think
that.
And it's hard.
Like every every day I see tons of
videos of people like, oh, can't wait to
get to the holidays with their mega relatives.
And, you know, all this stuff.
No, I don't have that.
Yes, they do, because I'm not invited.
And not all of my family is mega
or supporters, but the ones that are not
just try to keep the peace and don't
talk about it and say things like there's
nothing you can do about it.
So get over it.
And I'm not going to get over it.
I don't know.
I don't know about you guys, but I'm
not.
I can't really get over supporting people who
have sex with children.
What?
Wow.
That's a scratch.
How do you even get from A to
B is beyond me.
Well, that is real.
These people are real.
And it's very sad.
This is this all started with Covid and
that trauma continues.
And SSRIs are to blame.
And there's all kinds of this.
I find that very sad when I hear
these things.
These people are very sad.
One of the women, the woman who did
Peace and Love, the little dancer after Charlie
Kirk died.
Yeah.
She came back on.
I don't have a I didn't clip it
because of all you have a million tick
tock clips.
And you didn't get her.
Well, I mean, the reason is because it's
not as entertaining as these.
Oh, this is what what I what do
you think it is?
Come on.
Yes, entertainment.
Now she is starting.
She actually looked pretty decent.
She's it's like it's starting to show up
on her face.
She's literally turning ugly before you.
It's just like the damnedest thing.
It's like, wow, if you're going to just
be so hateful, it really starts to reflect
your looks.
Here is this.
I won't play too many.
This is the last one and you can
take a break.
But how about playing this one?
This is the profound dipshit.
OK.
The other day, I don't get way, way,
way.
If you're going to do the side, at
least play the decide intro clip.
Oh, good Lord.
The other day, I went to a restaurant
with my girlfriend and my four year old.
And the server came up and said, hello,
ladies, and proceeded to take our drink order.
And as soon as the server left, my
four year old looked at me and just
gasped and was like, they called you a
lady.
She also corrected a family member the other
day who she heard me and just went,
they them, they them, they them over and
over again until they acknowledged her.
All that to say, if my freshly four
year old can figure out pronouns, so can
your shitty boomer parents.
No more excuses.
Was this a dude?
No, that was a woman.
Oh, non-binary woman with her four year
old, who is apparently very erudite, which seems
unlikely.
You've been around four year olds.
So this is like the boat that this
one, I would say, is bull crap.
She's just making a story up so she
can be on Tick-Tock.
Well, but she's a dipshit.
Everybody posting on Tick-Tock is, is all
about them.
That's the whole point of it.
It's the whole point.
Look at me.
Look at me.
Now, because every person was asked to retweet
and share this following announcement, I feel that
I should read this on the show.
This is from real Candace O.
OK.
And yes, that's that would be Candace Owens.
That would be Candace Owens.
And it's so top everything that I could
probably come up probably.
So it starts with a revolving light flashing
light.
Urgent.
Two days ago, I was contacted by a
high ranking employee of the French government after.
Oh, here we go.
After determining this person's position and proximity to
the French couple, that would be Macron and
the Macron brothers.
The Macron, the Macron brothers.
Yes, I am.
I have deemed the information they gave me
to be credible enough to share publicly in
the event that something happens.
Oh, yeah.
They're going to shoot her.
In short, this person claims that the Macron's,
also known as the Macron brothers, have executed
upon and paid for my assassination.
Yes, you read that correctly.
Oh, brother.
More specifically, that the green light was given
to a small team in National Gendarmerie Intervention
Group.
I'm told there is one Israeli that is
on this.
Oh, yeah, has to be an Israeli.
Of course, the plans were formalized again.
This person provided concrete proof that they are
well placed within the French government apparatus.
Further to this point, this person claims that
Charlie Kirk's assassin trained with the French Legion
13th Brigade with multi-state involvement.
Journalist Xavier Poussard's life is also at risk.
This is deadly serious.
I don't know.
The head of state of France apparently wants
us both dead and has authorized professional units
to carry this out.
I ask every person to retweet and share
this.
I do not know who in the American
government can be trusted since the source claims
our leaders are aware.
But I have more specific information, which is
definitely verifiable.
Should they care to reach out to me,
to the brave official in France who did
this because they were so moved by the
evil of Charlie's public execution to risk their
own life?
May God bless you.
Truly, let all be revealed.
Wow.
I mean, after you go to the assassination
squad with an Israeli hit guy, I mean,
there's what else can you do after that?
I mean, you pretty much have to be
shot.
How can you top it?
I have no idea.
This this woman, I don't you know, I
have to say there are a lot of
people that are that I've talked to that
or you know, some very quite close to
you.
Yes.
That are enamored with her presentation on her,
her little show.
Absolutely.
And they like listening to her.
She does.
She's just a chatterbox.
She's a nonstop chatterbox.
She's like, OK, OK, OK.
Could have been one of those standalone reporters,
the ones that which you and I have
both run into, which go up, they they're
on a TV news show.
People have seen it, but you never worked
with them when you work with them.
It's like, wow, they can hold a mic
in front of a car wreck and talk
as long as you want them to.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they have little moments where you can
cut in and stop them.
But, you know, there's because they're pros.
Yeah.
And so, yeah, yeah.
The car came in and it turns out
that the driver goes on and on and
on.
They go on.
They can go on for hours.
Candice Owens is one of these people who
can talk endlessly about pretty much nothing.
But but when you take it to this
level, maybe someone actually did contact her at
this.
Yeah.
Some joker.
To be credible, I believe it like I
got some one of the clowns out there,
one of the I know these types troublemakers.
And they're especially the United States.
We're filled with them.
Troublemaking, you know, young guys that like to
do this sort of thing.
It's like the crank call guy.
Yeah.
And it's a crank call, basically.
And they throw this stuff at her with,
you know, make it sound good.
But she is credible.
