BREAKING! Peter Thiel CONFRONTED Over Epstein Ties!
59:33 Share

This is the Jimmy Dore Show. Aaron Maté speaking. Who's calling, please? Aaron, this is Jake Tapper from The Lead. Oh, hello, Jake Tapper. The Lead with Jake Tapper. Right. On CNN. Yeah, we get it. What are you up to, Jake Tapper?

Oh, I'll tell you what I'm up to. I'm busy tracking down the news stories that affect everyday Americans. That's what we do. We journalists. Is that so? What story are you working on today, Jake? Aaron, today's top story. Everyone is being really mean to me. Is that so? Aaron, all I did was write a book. In fact, not just me, a whole other guy wrote it with me.

I downplayed that on the run up to the release, but now that it's blowback season, I'd like to emphasize that I had a co-author. Okay, duly noted. You just wrote a book, huh? Just wrote a book, as journalists do, about an important news story, as it's common, and now everybody is treating me like I kidnapped the Lindbergh baby. I see.

Just because I wrote about a media cover-up that I myself was a part of and tried to pass it off as a piece of objective journalism rather than a mea culpa-filled memoir. Apparently, that's a no-no. As it should be. Well, excuse me!

I was under the impression that a journalist was entitled to write a little journalism every once in a while, you know, as a treat. Well, I come to find out everybody sure likes the expression conflict of interest a whole lot. Because it was. You were a central voice in shaming those who were pointing out Biden's obvious decline even last summer.

Oh my God, you sound like everybody else. It was unethical. It was a book that should have been written, but not by you. Did any of you people stop to think for one second that I might have wanted the money that came from writing that book? Yes, that thought has crossed most people's minds. And now instead of the procession of glory I was expecting...

I've been subjected to these humiliation rituals. Aaron, I had to go on Fox News and apologize to Lara Trump because I called her out several years ago for pointing out Biden's obvious decline, accused her of bullying someone with a stutter. Quite frankly, I feel like I should get some credit.

For apologizing? No, for going on television and keeping a straight face while I claimed what was going on with Joe Biden was a stutter. That is pretty amazing, frankly. Thank you. At least you're being nice. Lots of people are being straight up mean to me. George Clooney banned me from the live CNN airing of his Broadway play. Just mean-spirited exclusion.

At one point, is this just the cool kids in high school bullying the kid who doesn't fit in? That is not in any way what this is. Well, it feels like it. Oh, look, the nerd wrote a book. He thinks he's so smart. That is not at all what's at the root of this criticism. You can't write an expose about a media cover-up that you were a part of. You can't write a news story that you yourself were a part of.

Why not? When I Google myself, there are news stories written about things that I talk about on my show and public reaction to those. That in itself is news. I cannot extricate myself from the news itself. News and the people who report the news have become one now. A journalistic singularity. Like at the end of Star Trek, the motion picture, 1979, when V'ger and Decker unite to create a brand new form of life.

Really? A Star Trek analogy is your defense for this whole debacle? Well, that and saying, well, excuse me all the time in increasingly dramatic tones. Well, excuse me. Okay, well, it seems like you're not going to accept any responsibility here, so we should probably just get on with the show. Look, all I did was get up this morning and brush my teeth like an average fella, and all of a sudden I'm public enemy number one. Okay, goodbye, Jake Tapper.

Mr. Teal, do you have any comments about Palantir's surveillance of the American people, sir?

or any of your connections to Jeffrey Epstein. Almost me if you want to live. How about that last particular one? You're setting up a Big Brother surveillance system and people know it, sir. Well,

Welcome to the Jimmy Dora Show, everybody. Keaton and Russ in for Jimmy while he is on the road in Europe this week. Well, we all know the George Carlin phrase by now, it's a big club and you ain't in it. Well, in this case, it's a big club.

It's a small club and you ain't in it. But somebody who is in it is Peter Thiel. So Peter Thiel was confronted on Palantir, Jeffrey Epstein and the Big Brother surveillance system that they are setting up outside the annual Bilderberg group meetings. Yes, the Bilderberg group. That's kind of old school conspiracy stuff. But he is in attendance this year. And so he was called the group is the goat.

That's right. That's right. They are the OGs, right? They laid the groundwork for the World Economic Forum. They set the standard, the gold standard. So here is Peter Thiel outside being caught up to and interrogated. Mr. Thiel, do you have any comments about Palantir's surveillance of the American people, sir? Or any of your connections to Jeffrey Epstein? Almost me, if you want to live. How about that last particular one?

Walk faster. People are waking up to what you're doing there, sir. That's why we're here covering this.

Yeah, you gotta be inside. That's the thing about the Bilderberg Group. Oh, look. More people find him. Wow, Peter Thiel was booking it. That man picked up the pace. The second the word Epstein came out, it seemed he started getting a little faster. Yeah, I noticed that. Stone cold Peter Thiel. Of course, co-founded Palantir with...

Alex Karp, who is still here. That's right. And these are the guys who are setting up the Big Brother surveillance system, essentially to track, trace, and database everyone. Not just Americans. You may have heard me say that. But literally everyone. And that's a big reason of... Part of the reason why he is here. There is a lot of heavy kind of tech representation here and military men who are preparing for something. So...

Peter Thiel in the house. All right. We'll look into this a little more. Obviously, Peter Thiel, no stranger to these kinds of interrogations. Here he is last year looking even more uncomfortable than he just looked there when interrogated about his A.I. being used to target Palestinians in Gaza.

What do you think about the use of artificial intelligence or Lavender by the IDF in identifying Hamas targets? And secondly, do you agree with Elon Musk about that the population decline is a risk for humanity? Look, I'm not, you know, without going into all the details.

I'm not on top of all the details of what's going on in Israel because my bias is to defer to Israel. It's not for us to second-guess everything and I believe that broadly the IDF gets to decide what it wants to do and that they're broadly in the right and that's sort of the perspective I come back to and if I fall into the trap of

arguing you on every detailed point, I would actually be conceding the broader issue that the Middle East should be micromanaged from Cambridge. And I think that's just simply absurd. And so I'm not gonna concede that point.

and what was your the other i love the way he says and what was your other question like usually when you're presented with the option to take the easy one or the hard one you take the easy one he like took that one and then he's like yeah what was the other one what was the other question yeah he choked he choked um yeah man uh if there is a spot of hope and we need hope

This whole Iran thing woke a lot of people up, man, and we're going to need all hands on deck if you want to stop these people from executing their agenda. It's going to take mass civil uprising within the bounds of the law, of course. Yep. Well, the Foxes are very much in the hen house now. Peter Thiel and Alex Karp.

being two of them. And as you'll see here, folks, there's really no way to vote against this stuff. So let's go back to Christmas of last year. That's when this piece was published. Nice Christmas publication here. The Bilderberg Group changes itself for the modern world and the return of Trump. So this was published in the lame duck period, obviously, between when Trump won and when he took office.

office. Again, once the apex of conspiracy theories, can't imagine why that is. The influential group signals shift by naming ex-NATO chief as its new co-chair. See, you can't vote against this, folks. Can't vote against it. There's no way. The former head of NATO, John Stoltenberg, has been named the new co-chair of the influential Bilderberg group, which

which convenes a yearly transatlantic policy conference and has long been the subject of conspiracy theories around the extent of its power to shape global events. I love how they call these conspiracy theories. Watch what we will read in a few slides. After a turbulent decade at the helm of the alliance's military, Stoltenberg now takes over at its preeminent discussion forum.

A fiercely private four-day event frequented by prime ministers, EU commissioners, bank bosses, corporate CEOs, and intelligence chiefs. It's a conspiracy theory to think they meet behind closed doors to discuss how the world's going to run, though. With a guest list like that, I mean, how could you be such a conspiracy theorist to think they're not, what, are they having a backgammon tournament in there?

They mostly talk about the new season of White Lotus. Yeah, exactly. Maybe they're writing the new season. Maybe the White Lotus is an op and they gather there to write the new season. That would not surprise me. Stoltenberg's tenure at NATO was dominated by the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which had begun in earnest not long before he took office in 2014.

Stoltenberg oversaw what he recently described as the largest reinforcement of our collective defense in a generation, noting proudly that defense spending is on an upward trajectory across the alliance. A number of his new colleagues at Bilderberg have been benefiting from this uptick. Again, where's the conspiracy, folks? Where's the conspiracy? What are you, crazy?

Several other groups, you know, people in their class must really like what's going on because the markets were off the hook today. Markets are doing very well today. Very well. Like you would almost think that they're gleeful about World War III. Yeah, I'm sure a lot of people are. A lot of people in that meeting certainly are.

They're certainly not surprised by it, I can tell you that, as we're going to find out in a little bit. Several of the group's 31-member steering committee have senior roles in the defense industry. The billionaire former Google boss Eric Schmidt chaired the recent National Security Commission on AI and is now busy launching a kamikaze drone company aimed at the lucrative Ukraine market.

Meanwhile, the hugely wealthy Swedish industrialist Markus Wallenberg is chair of defense manufacturer Saab, which enjoyed a 71% boost in orders in the first nine months of 2024, largely due to the war with Russia.

The tech luminary and Donald Trump insider Peter Thiel founded the fast-growing robotics company Anduril and the booming surveillance and AI giant Palantir. His loyal lieutenant Alex Karp, the CEO of Palantir, was voted onto the board of Bilderberg a few years ago.

Karp, who claims his company is responsible for most of the targeting in Ukraine, recently told the New York Times that the U.S. will very likely soon be fighting a three front war with China, Russia and Iran. Remember, folks, this was published Christmas Day of twenty twenty four.

Like I said, not only are people getting rich off this, they're not surprised by it. Not surprised by it. Alex Karp apparently not surprised by it. Recently told the Times the U.S. will very likely soon be fighting a three-front war with China, Russia, and Iran. So here's the list of attendees, the list of 2025 participants, as you can see. Alex Karp and Peter Thiel.

On the list, Stacey Abrams also on the list. She scored an invite. See, Malcolm is really good at this. He knows how to highlight two things at the same time in the same slide. I'm not so sophisticated, but I would have highlighted the bottom name there, Ann Applebaum, staff writer at The Atlantic. Just an unbelievably zealous pro-Ukraine writer. So she gets the invite. Look, Fareed Zakaria.

Liberal media talking head in good standing. He's there with Alex Karp and with Peter Thiel, all these enemies. Gerhard Zeller, president of Warner Brothers and Discovery International Entertainment represented. In some respects, the geopolitical mood today is not so different from how it was in the 1950s when Bilderberg was born.

Top of the agenda at the first meeting in 1994, pardon me, was what do you think, folks? The attitude towards communism in the Soviet Union with the strictly confidential conference report referring repeatedly to the communist threat.

Seventy years later, at the most recent summit in Madrid, the primary threat is Russia, which sat grimly at the foot of the conference agenda underneath Ukraine and the world and the future of warfare. In 1954, the alliance was facing the emergence of communist imperialism. In 2024, it's up against what Stoltenberg calls the emerging axis of autocrats, of course, headed by Russia.

China and North Korea. So, you know, things may look like they change, but a lot stays the same. A lot stays the same. And, you know, much has been made of Davos and the World Economic Forum.

Not wrongfully, obviously. I think those are legitimate things to talk about, obviously. But the Bilderberg Group, yeah, this goes back now 71 years. 71 years. And when you look at the guest list, it's a pretty diverse who's who of influential people, both of the Democrat variety and the Republican variety. I'm sure a lot of people who voted for Donald Trump did not think that

that people like Alex Karp and Peter Thiel would be palling around with Ann Applebaum, Fareed Zakaria, and Stacey Abrams at these Bilderberg conferences. But this is where a lot of this stuff has worked out. And, you know, how in the dark we are, even though we like to think of ourselves as relatively enlightened or relatively curious or relatively inquisitive as compared to the average person who doesn't,

seek out alternative media like we do. I'm sure the most important people on that list, we looked over because we don't even know who they are. I'm sure the people who really belong in that room are the people who we just kind of gloss over because we never heard of them. Oh, who's that? Stacey Abrams. Oh, that's a big shiny name. Fareed Zakaria, Peter Thiel. Yeah, man. It's a small club and we ain't in it. It's a big club in some respects. It's a small club in some respects. But

The fact that you have Alex Karp there and Peter Thiel there. Don't forget, folks, Alex Karp was a Democrat donor. Alex Karp was, you know, Alex Karp was not MAGA. Elon Musk was not MAGA until...

the July Butler event. Right. Um, you know, uh, what happened, uh, this time around, I think a lot of people saw an opportunity to glom onto this movement. They saw a leader who was very malleable and apparently very lazy, apparently too lazy to make a speech when we're on the brink of a world war three. And so they had their way with them. And, uh,

The parade tired him out. It's a shame. And if you don't believe me, you don't think they had their way with him. Here is some footage from Trump's hugely successful military parade. Palantir! Palantir! Woo!

Wow. I'll mute the rest of that. And these are the same people who, if that had been a Kamala event, would have had a heart attack. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Or, you know, whatever. They're not even trying to hide it. Yeah.

Exactly. Exactly. You know, if that said Microsoft or something, you know, oh, my God. Yeah. No, it gets you to get you to scream for anything. Get you to scream for anything. Palantir. Yeah, they sponsor the event. So Palantir volunteered to foot the bill for, you know, a substantial portion of the forty five million dollars that went to Donald Trump's birthday parade. But they are very much they very much have their foot in the door.

And what, you know, events like this remind you of is that there is not necessarily permanent power, but there is a group of people who are 10 steps out in front of the news. Right. They are 10 steps out in front of everything. You know, we're watching the world on replay to a certain extent.

Because these people know what's going to happen months before anything does. Oh, sure. Well, that's why they're always on the right side of the stock market. Right. Yep. Yeah, it's really amazing. If you go back and you read Edward Bernays propaganda, kind of the foundational text of modern psyops, really.

it's all pretty much laid out there. Like what he's describing, the techniques for controlling and manipulating the public, of course he doesn't put it in those terms. He tries to make it sound like a benign and natural and necessary process of consensus building that can't possibly be used against the population. But the techniques that he lays out and the assumptions he has there

You could have written that yesterday with just different technology being referenced. He basically lays out, hey, you have a few hundred leading people in different sectors of society.

and what public relations, as he calls it in the book, has figured out is that it's very expensive to try to reach a mass population one person at a time. It's much more cost efficient to get to an influential person and use your capital and influence and public relations project to get that person to represent your interests. It's really worth reading.

Because you can really see the genesis of where we are now and how they're thinking. They never stopped doing it that way. What is the Bilderberg group?

The Bilderberg Group is what he's describing. It's those people who set your agenda. He describes there how the velvet manufacturers want to sell more velvet. So they get a member of the royal family to wear some velvet, and now the velvet manufacturers sell. And to your point, if you're somebody who's tied into these people, you know that velvet is going to get sold.

In a couple of months, right? So you get it on the ground floor, you buy it, you make a fortune. That's how these people get rich. They stay rich and they keep getting richer. Um, none of this has changed. It's just become much more sophisticated. You really do have the people at the Bilderberg group, you know, that's pretty representative of the people who are actually ruling you. And that's why nothing changes, no matter who you elect.

They'll let you, in order to give you the illusion of control, they'll let the parties change things at the margins. This is the purpose of culture wars.

This is why culture wars are front and center in a country that needs infrastructure and a social safety net. Because that kind of thing, how are you going to pay for it? Well, you got to go after the rich people, right? They don't want you talking about anything like that. They don't want you discussing things that actually affect your life because...

Once you start talking about those things, it's not going to be long before you say, well, we need to tax these people. They want you fighting about trans and sports, and they want you fighting about DEI. That's the purpose of it, and that's what gives you the illusion of change. This party comes in, they get rid of DEI. That party comes in, they bring in DEI. They want you to think differently.

that that is meaningful change and they don't want the horizon of your vision of what change looks like to go beyond that.

All right. The Israelis continue their campaign to win friends and influence people by bombing a TV station mid-broadcast in Iran. This is Mohammed Safa. Israel killed journalists in Gaza. Israel killed journalists in Lebanon. Israel just targeted an Iranian TV studio, killing a number of journalists.

This violates Article 79 of Additional Protocol, Geneva Conventions, but international law clearly doesn't apply to Israel. Yes, that is true, unfortunately. Jesus. Yeah. Muhammad Madari, I believe, based on the reporting, was in the building for his interview with Piers Morgan at the time. We are going to be having him on on Wednesday. Okay.

Morandi. Morandi. Yeah. Israel bombs Iran's state TV after threatening it would disappear.

Israel has attacked the Iranian state broadcaster IRIB and interrupted a live broadcast with an explosion, marking another escalation in the conflict with Tehran and replicating its previous attacks on news media targets in Gaza, the occupied West Bank, and Lebanon. Tehran has also attacked the Iranian state broadcaster IRIB and interrupted a live broadcast with an explosion, marking another escalation in the conflict with Tehran and replicating its previous attacks on news media targets in Gaza, the occupied West Bank, and Lebanon.

TV anchor Sahar Amami denounced Monday's aggression against the homeland and the truth as a blast went off and smoke and debris filled the screen. The footage then showed her fleeing the studio as a voice is heard calling God is greatest.

The attack came shortly after the Israeli military issued a threat for Tehran's District 3, where IRIB's headquarters is located, and Defense Minister Israel Katz said, quote, the Iranian propaganda and incitement mouthpiece is on its way to disappear. So this is what impunity they operate with. This is a war crime.

They advertised that they're about to commit a war crime. They didn't even feel any need to cloak it in the, uh, act. Oh, it was an accident. We were trying to hit a military target just straight out. Yep. This is what we think of your international law. Who's going to stop us.

Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Ismail Baghe accused Israel of committing a wicked act that constitutes a war crime and of being the number one killer of journalists and media people.

That is literally true. The Committee to Protect Journalists has counted 178 journalists killed in Gaza by Israel since October 2023, making it the deadliest conflict for media workers ever recorded.

The UNSC, United Nations Security Council, must act now to stop the genocidal aggressor from committing further atrocities against our people, Begai wrote on X.

The CPJ said it was appalled by Israel's attack on Iranian state TV and argued impunity for the killings of Palestinian journalists had emboldened the country to target media elsewhere. This bloodshed must end now, the organization said on X.

Iranian journalist Younes Shadlow said many of his colleagues were inside the building when the Israeli attack happened. Quote, I don't know how many of my colleagues are still inside right now, he reported, from outside the burning building in Tehran. We had been given evacuation warnings, but everyone stayed until the very last moment to show the true face of the Zionist regime to the world.

Wow. That is some courage, man. That is some courage. You know that these genocidal maniacs have targeted that studio and to stay to make a point. Wow. Al Jazeera's Dorsa Jabari.

said the strike was highly symbolic because it targeted an entity with close links to the Iranian government. Quote, the head of the network is appointed by the Supreme Leader directly, so it is a significant part of the establishment, Jabari said. This is going to be a great shock for the Iranian people, she continued.

The station is located in a large fortified complex that has a long history dating back to the 1940s. The channel is the most watched inside Iran, and Amami is a renowned anchor.

Fawad Azadi, professor of international relations at the University of Tehran, said he feared there would be a lot of casualties from the attack. It's a huge building, he told Al Jazeera. Iran's news channel is located on the first floor. It has four floors and on every floor you have at least 200 to 300 people working.

Azadi said he expected the attack to spark international outrage and be condemned by international media outlets. Yeah, I'm sorry to say I would not hold my breath for that. Israel, this is really, when you look at it, Israel has a lot of the core assumptions of the Nazi state.

only with the entire world cheering it on and reaffirming it in those beliefs. This core assumption of the absolute rightness of its cause, the belief in an ethno supremacist ideology, having a state built on the assumption of their own inherent superiority and the second class status of everyone else in their society.

And that worldview giving them the right to do anything while claiming they're doing it as a defensive action because the world is against them and they are victims of the world.

It's all, it's that volatile brew with absolute impunity, absolute lack of pushback from most of the rest of the, of the Western world that they see themselves as being a part of. That's how you get here where you've got a state that is essentially a fascist Nazi state that would just say, yeah, we're, we're bombing a TV station. Yeah. Yeah.

International law, international, international spa. Mark Ames here. Israel has already murdered more journalists in Gaza than were killed in World War I, World War II, Vietnam, Yugoslavia, and Afghanistan combined with the full support of Washington and Brussels. Exactly. What's another massacre of journalists to the collective West? That's it.

This is what a state with that ideology will do if you give them absolute impunity and all of the media lining up to excuse their actions. This is how far it can go. Hussein Haj Shaflel.

Let's call, chef line, let's call this what it fucking is. Mohammed Morandi, one of the most fearless, eloquent voices exposing Zionist lies, was inside that building to interview Piers Morgan. Inside, while it was bombed by Israel. Not before, not after, during.

This wasn't a random strike. This wasn't collateral damage. This was a calculated, deliberate act of terror designed to silence a man speaking the truth about Gaza, Iran, and the crimes of empire. And he fucking survived. Now ask yourself, was this just about targeting infrastructure? Or was the interview a setup? Was Piers the bait?

Was our Syed being drawn into a media trap? Because this wasn't just an attack on a building. It was an attempted assassination on truth itself. It's certainly possible. It's certainly possible. That is something we'll definitely ask him about on Wednesday. So this is an IDF spokesperson doing like they do, blaming the victim. Absolutely.

eight civilians were killed and dozens were injured this is the face of the Iranian terror regime we strike at nuclear capabilities and military capabilities that were supposed to annihilate Israel but they are targeting civilians and this is exactly why we launched this operation to remove this existential threat from over Israel the nuclear and missile threat

They're the ones who, I mean, if you've watched what's gone on in Gaza since October 2023, it is amazing to see an IDF spokesperson make the claim that Iran is the evil one targeting civilians. The spokesperson for the IDF says Iran is targeting civilians, and that's why Iran is a terror regime. So a country that targets civilians is a terror regime? Got it.

And this is a BBC interview with Richard Dalton. He's a former senior British diplomat and served as an ambassador to Libya and to Iran. ...is widening its illegal aggression against Iran by targeting more and more the civilian infrastructure of the Iranian ruling system...

having attacked nuclear installations and military installations, it was pretty clear that what they were after was a general campaign against the Islamic Republic as such.

And that warning to evacuate a large area of Tehran confirms the fact this is not what was presented as a war to preempt some dangerous attack.

escalation in the nuclear field from Iranian side, which was an imaginary claim anyway. But it is clearly a war to settle scores, to exact revenge. And revenge is a primary motivation of many in the Israeli state. And the consequences for civilians and the fabric of international law are dire.

Yes. From Sprinter Observer, Channel 13, Israel. Military cabinet to meet in underground complex this evening.

The meeting will take place in the new fortified Israeli army headquarters located below the Ichelov hospital, which is protected from Iranian missiles. Now I'm sure anyone who's been following Gaza can see the irony because a big part of the way they have justified, as we were talking about with our last guest, the bombing of hospitals is claiming that they're hiding the

Hamas under the hospital. Nimmi Shirazi, so Israel has a subterranean military command center built under a hospital, huh?

Remember, folks, everything Israel accuses others of doing is just projection. Yes, we've also seen footage showing that the Iron Dome missiles sit right in the middle of residential neighborhoods. So you can't take them out without striking residential neighborhoods.

And as we covered a bit earlier, they are also already repeating their war crimes in Gaza and Iran. They haven't wasted any time bombing hospitals.

Um, so yeah, uh, Iraq, uh, Israel continues to commit violations of international law in broad daylight. Very obviously nobody believed Iran was about to get a nuclear weapon. There are decades of footage of these claims that.

Iran is months away from getting a nuclear weapon. They didn't believe this. This was an excuse to start World War III and to drag the United States into it. And they are conducting themselves consistent with that, just like they did in Gaza.

Their tactic, their military tactic, and this is again how a fascist ethno-nationalist state with absolutely no international law constraining it conducts itself in war.

Hit the civilian infrastructure. Hit the TV station. Remember, to Israelis, to Zionists, everyone against them is a Nazi. And that justifies anything, right? Everyone who's against them is a Nazi anti-Semite. They are all heirs to the Nazis that put their ancestors in camps. And therefore, everything is permissible.

Yep. And everything is permissible according to just about every established power on earth. Netanyahu said he compared the Iranian researchers to Hitler's researchers. Right. I mean, they just throw that comparison out and they think of that as a shield. And they have no reason to think that that will not work. What Dr. Farooz Sidwa told us earlier on the stream is

is that, you know, unlike Gaza, Iran can hit back hard, which makes this a much more dangerous game. And you just take it day by day to see how things go. The latest, apparently, you know, Trump made a threat that said everybody should evacuate Tehran.

He tweeted that out. Once again, we don't get an address. We don't get a comment. We have to follow his truth socially. He doesn't even tweet it out, go on Truth Social. Maybe post on X if you're going to threaten nuclear war. At least post it on X. Don't make people go to Truth Social.

Right. You know, could give a national address even maybe you could maybe even go on camera and like tell people we're about to start a nuclear war as opposed to like rage tweeting about how Iran should have taken the deal. No, it's what a disaster. What an awful.

Absolute disaster. And look, I said this on our show yesterday. I'll say it again since I'm lucky enough to be trusted with this larger platform. There is no excuse for this. There's no excuse on Donald Trump's end and there's no excuse on our end. There is no excuse to support this war. None. Right.

After 9-11, you can claim we were shocked and traumatized and so people got scared. I'm sorry. That history is still fresh in the minds of a lot of people. And if it's not fresh in your mind, it's easily accessible to everyone who's watching this show. Because if you're watching this show, you have Internet access. And as Caitlin Johnston said, if you live through the post 9-11 scare and or you have Internet access, there is no excuse to support us.

This war, we all have to very loudly in one voice condemn this. The fact that Dave Smith said he should be impeached and removed. Now Tucker Carlson is...

Speaking out against this, Bannon, Marjorie Taylor Greene, obviously Thomas Massey, who's been on the outs with Trump for a while. But, you know, when Dave said he should be impeached and removed, you know what? If these MAGA congresspeople and MAGA senators want to save face and maybe have a career after this disaster ends, maybe they should impeach and remove. What do you need, two-thirds in the Senate?

Are there 20 senators who want to have a political life after Trump? Are there 20 senators who want are there 20 Republican senators who want to survive the fallout of this and be able to live a public life afterwards without being shamed indoors?

Maybe that is what can happen. I don't know. I don't know, but something's on the, on the, on the bright side with these kinds of authoritarian personalities who rely on brute force rather than persuasion. Generally they're hated. It's, it's an Achilles heel of dictatorial kind of personalities. Yeah. So, um,

his base turns on him, that's really the only thing keeping them in line. Like if the base is screaming for his head. Yeah. I don't think it would take much for the Republicans to turn on him. They don't like him. They fear him. If you take away the cause to fear him, which is his base, then yeah, they could very easily turn on him. All right. So Benjamin, uh,

Netanyahu, the beepster, went on with Bret Baier to spread a little of that old Hasbro love that he's known for. People who chant death to America.

Try to assassinate President Trump twice. Kill 241 of your Marines in Beirut. Killed and injured thousands of American soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq. Try to bomb a restaurant in Washington, D.C. Chant death to America. Burn the American flag. Do you want these people to have

nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them to your cities? Of course not. So we're defending ourselves, but we're also defending the world. I want to talk about the nuclear threat. I want to talk about President Trump. You just said Iran tried to assassinate President Trump twice. Do you have intel that the assassination attempts on President Trump were directly from Iran? Through proxies, yes. Through their intel, yes. They want to kill him. Look, he's enemy number one. He's a decisive leader.

He never took the path that others took to try to bargain with them in a way that is weak, giving them basically a pathway to enrich uranium, which means a pathway to the bomb, padding it with billions and billions of dollars. He took up his fake agreement and basically tore it up. He killed Qasem Soleimani. He made it very clear, including now, you cannot have a nuclear weapon, which means you cannot enrich. He's been very forceful. So for them, he's

He's enemy number one. Look, they also tried to kill me, but I'm his junior partner. They understand that President Trump is a great threat to Iran's plans to weaponize nuclear weapons and use them. American pilots are shooting down drones that are headed towards Israel, as do our pilots.

American THAAD missile batteries are helping defend Tel Aviv and greater Tel Aviv area. American Aegis ships are in the Mediterranean. That's all a decision by President Trump, which I deeply appreciate. Again, his decisions on what to do, what to do at any given time is the president's decision. I trust his judgment completely.

And then according to people who were actually there in the studio immediately after the cameras went off, Brett said, okay, so no one's going to see that tape. And then I was like,

I'll take care of it. So, yeah, there are a lot of videos going around now in light of recent events of Netanyahu going back to 1982 saying this. I mean, it's just an incredible string of claims there. Yeah. Yeah. No, the Iraqis attack the Americans. Right. They're they're responsible, not us.

Israel for dragging us into that war, for manipulating us into that war like they're manipulating us into this with Iran now. And if you look at this very cartoonish presentation of the Iranian state, this is really what they want. They want Americans' understanding of the world to basically be like the G.I. Joe cartoon, like the rest of the world is Cobra.

Just these foul people with irrationally evil motives who are just obsessed with, yes, now we can finally destroy the Americans. That's not the way the world actually works. The only people who are really like that are

are us. Most people just kind of want to live, live their lives, run their country, do their thing. I'm not saying every government and every country is a utopian paradise, but for the most part, they just want to run it their way. What we think about how they run it. It's really irrelevant. It's really irrelevant. You can't, you can't out of one side of your mouth say, okay,

Well, they hate us for our freedom. They should leave us alone, which is obviously nonsense anyway, and then hate people for the way their societies are arranged. So if it's not that, and you're saying they're a real threat to us, demonstrate that.

What, you think Iran's going to get a Navy and come over here and do something to the United States? Like, really? In what world would something like that happen? How on earth would they do that? Whatever you think of Iran, it's irrelevant. They pose absolutely no threat to us. In regards to what he's saying about the assassinations,

Yeah, listen, Keaton did an excellent piece yesterday showing, this is going back to a Nation article. There's a lot of evidence, especially in light of what's happening now, that yeah, Trump did collude with a country in 2016. It wasn't Russia. It was Israel. Yeah. The Mueller report found that, but they did not include it in the final report for reasons I'm sure you can guess.

Did they try to assassinate him? Did anyone try to assassinate him? We've talked about this a lot. Trump is a very vengeful guy, right? Anyone would admit that whether you're a fan or not a fan, anyone would admit that this guy went after every law firm that gave him any kind of trouble when he was out of office, right? It was like the first order of business for him to go after all these law firms.

This guy didn't walk right into the Oval Office and turn the FBI and the CIA upside down to find out what happened with that assassination.

The names of the supposed assassins and attempted assassins are not well known to people. And by saying that, I'm not saying you can't look it up. I'm saying most people don't know the names off the tops of their heads. That's weird with attempted assassins. Mark David Chapman, Hinckley, we all know these names.

This almost like really got pushed off the front page. You didn't have a lot of those big articles about all the details of the lives of these gunmen and assassins and who they were. I'm sorry. If that doesn't look like an op, what would look like an op? Harris was not going to be able to sell this agenda because

To the people most likely to resist it, which is Trump's base by installing Trump, they neutralized resistance from the people most likely to resist. That's my theory. I'm sticking to it until proven otherwise. Yeah. I just had one thing before we move on. Yeah.

The other thing that I think is really puzzling about this is that Netanyahu did a whole lot of speaking for Donald Trump there. He's a great friend to Israel. He has backed us up and we know who tried to kill him. Like he's doing all he's putting a whole lot of words in the mouth of a guy who is nothing if not a fucking big mouth.

So where is Donald Trump these past few days? He made an eight minute speech at his birthday parade, which was a total disaster, by the way. Horrible crowds, horrible weather. It was a nightmare.

A lot of very smart people are saying he'll never recover from that. It was such an embarrassment. Besides that, nobody's seen him. He's given phone interviews to print publications to Dana Bash, right, who then goes and relays what he says. This guy's been on camera almost every single day, if not every single day since Inauguration Day.

And when this shit breaks out, he's nowhere to be seen. What is that about? Where is this guy? What does he have to say? Is he the president of the goddamn United States or not? All of a sudden, he lets BB talk for him. This is fucked. This is completely fucked. Where is this man?

Best case scenario, best case, okay, is that he knows that these motherfuckers, these Israelis, have destroyed his presidency and his legacy. And he does not know what to do about it. That's the best interpretation of this. That's the most charitable interpretation, is that he's ashamed of what's going on and he doesn't know what to do. That's no excuse. You're the president. We're on the doorstep of an apocalyptic war. We haven't heard from you.

in days aside from an eight minute speech at your failed birthday parade that's not acceptable that's not acceptable it's insane yeah it's insane uh so this is wally rashid uh talking about uh well this is his interpretation of what would happen if iran actually assassinated trump

Who is now publicly stating that Iran is trying to assassinate President Trump. Just said Iran tried to assassinate President Trump twice. Do you have intel that the assassination attempts on President Trump were directly from Iran? Through proxies, yes. Through their intel, yes. They want to kill him. Look, he's enemy number one. He's a decisive leader. They also tried to kill me, but I'm his junior partner.

When did you- They understand that President Trump is a great threat to Iran's plans to weaponize nuclear weapons and use them. Listen to me very clearly when I say this. The only country that would benefit from Iran assassinating Donald Trump would be Israel. Unless Iran wants to legitimately get nuked, which the United States would consider, there is no geopolitical benefit for Iran to assassinate President Trump. Iran knows very well that assassinating President Trump is a death wish. They would never do that.

Only foreign country that has the resources and capabilities to assassinate President Trump and then blame it on somebody else is Israel. No other country on earth would dare assassinate a sitting US president. Only country that would benefit from the assassination of Donald Trump is Israel because that would lead to Israel's greatest enemy being eliminated. If God forbid something were to happen on US soil, Israel should be considered the number one suspect.

Okay, but I don't think Israel really wants to assassinate him. I think Israel said, hey, you know what? Harris couldn't sell ice water in hell, but this guy, he could sell those Walmart steaks. What else could he sell? Hey, steaks.

Zionism. Same thing. We got here. I am production house. This is a, we're working, we're working with a Google Vail three to do that. Aren't you impressed with those? Yeah.

Uh, yeah. Uh, you've been had folks you've been had, and I must say it's very heartening to see so many former Trump supporters coming to that conclusion. I would say more than not. I'm seeing very few people who are not pissed off who were defending Trump right now. Very few of his former today said he should be impeached and removed. I mean, good on him. Good on him. Good on him. Yeah.

Uh, Rachel, now we know for sure it was beside the day. Yes, absolutely. When will BB try to link the Minnesota shooter to Iran? Yes. Didn't BB actually gift Trump a gold pager? How wild is that? Uh, that's what they call a warning. That's what they call a warning. Miriam gave him another warning, a 15 inch strap on. Yeah. Yeah. No, don't worry, Miriam. You won't have to use that on me.

Yeah, I mean, I know it's the G7, but like, where are you? I'm sorry, this is an emergency. Well, you can't find a camera. You can't give an address. Like, it's just it's very bizarre. It's very, very bizarre. We need to figure out what the hell is going on. Yeah, well, he did. He did give some comments at the G7 about how insulted Putin is that it's not the G8 anymore.

Did he do that? He'll talk to me, but he's very insulted because it's not the G8 anymore. He's very, very insulted. Yeah.

Yeah, well, I mean, it's just it's kind of crazy how in this kind of moment he's letting Netanyahu do the talking for him. I mean, that really tells you who is in control of this. That tells you who is running things. Right. You know, we saw that Axios report that came out where the Israelis claimed that, no, Trump had their back all along. He was just acting like there was tension to lull Iran into a false sense of security.

security and probably to save political face, maybe in the hopes they could work something out by himself some time. But according to that reporting, the Israelis felt like he had their back all the way and that any talk of tension with them was for show. Now, the Americans denied that.

And it's hard to tell who the bigger liar is because both the Israelis and the U.S. are pretty big fucking liars. But the facts seem to be on Israel's side of that one. They seem to be telling the truth in that scenario because now we are on, what, day four of bombings? And we still have not heard from the president? We haven't heard from the president of the United States? The president hasn't given an address on this?

After all this time? I'm sorry. That's something. That's fucked. That's fucked. Well, yeah. No, I think you're right that he realizes this completely fucks him, his presidency, his legacy. Talking about a man who's basically in it to be adored and worshipped. And he knows that ship has sailed now. He's going to leave office. And hey, all kidding aside, you know,

He might not leave office on his feet, frankly, with the people that he's been getting in bed with and the way that they like to play. But if he does, he will probably go down in history as perhaps the most despised president of all time. Because, I mean, the libs are pretty universal in hating him. And now, from everything I'm seeing, he lost his base. ♪
