So this is something that the opposition party really needs to jump on to. And I spoke about this in an earlier episode, but I want to bring it up again. Donald Trump has a history of ignoring American intelligence and instead favors the desires and statements of a war criminal. We saw this in helsinki during Trump 1.0, where he said he believed Vladimir Putin over US intelligence agencies. And then here, as it pertains to Iran, he clearly believes Benjamin Netanyahu over the Pentagon and the United States of America and the United States taxpayer has paid in tremendous, tremendously to the Pentagon. It is the most funded organization in the entire world, the United States military. So these people have draft up, they've workshopped, they have done everything they can do about if we do, if we strike here, what are the options here? What are the options there? Blah, blah, blah. They have all these drones. I mean, we've spent trillions on this, right? So this is the way it should go down. Benjamin Netanyahu calls up, pudding boy, hey, I want to bomb Iran. We putting voice like, hey, let me talk to the Pentagon. The Pentagon says the following. Pop this up. Trump's top general warns of Iran strike risks. Pentagon says, don't do it. Too many risks. Trump's just say, sorry. Pentagon says, no, we're out on this. We're completely out. Go back to negotiations. But he doesn't. He always favors the talking points of war criminals. And I Think it's because he relates to them. He relates to liars, he relates to morally broken people. Look no further than the cabinet and the people that he surrounded himself with. Somebody with integrity that bases their speaking on fact and data. That's not something the autocrat values. This man values impulsivity. This man values currying favor with people whom he thinks are big swinging dicks. The rest of the world sees as Benjamin Netanyahu. I see him as a maniacal mass murderer, war criminal. And the fact that the United States of America even hosts this man is such a moral failure on our part. When you think about the manner in which the IDF operates, that civilians are completely on board. We can bomb schools, we can bomb hospitals, we can bomb apartment buildings. And then the President of the United States listens to him. And this President of the United States, of course he's a draft dodger and of course, you know, dumb and dumber baron. None of those people are ever going to see war. It's always the case with Republicans never sent their kids into war. Dick Cheney was the biggest draft dodger. George W. Bush was the biggest draft dodger. And then the one thing John Kerry had was that he served. And they got the idiotic Republican voter base on board with besmirching his track record. This is a cancer in the Republican Party. They love war, they love feeding the military industrial complex and they like believing propaganda surrounding it. So this is just a really fascinating lesson that the America simply does not learn. We continue to go to wars based on lies and right now we're at war because Benjamin Netanyahu has had a 40 year wish and cooked brain is his Make A Wish foundation deliverer. It's just, it's insanity.

Well, I thought it was so interesting when the reports came out about the Joint Chief saying, you know, it's a lot bigger. There are so many more issues than just just striking Iran. And then Trump got on his stupid ass, you know, social media app, Lies Social and is like, I make the decision, it's me, I get to do it. Like he's so. He wants everybody to know he's the person making the decision. Yet it's so obvious that he is totally letting Israel do all of the brain thinking. And he just comes along with his military because he's such a bully and a brute. He thinks I'm impervious to consequences. And yeah, you say that my intelligence person will fuck you because I'm the President, I get to do it. And it just again reminds us we have somebody that should not be in charge of walking a dog that is in charge of the United States of America. And it go no look no further than we're having parties at Mar a Lago deciding to attack Iran and we're not in this situation room. That's how unserious he took what is going on in the world.

A (9:49)

Okay? And now the Pentagon is throwing the administration under the bus. They said don't break it. And you may remember Colin Powell said to George W. Bush, it's a Pottery Barn rule. You break it, you own it. Regarding Iraq. And so of course Netanyahu and Donald Trump are breaking Iran and the Pentagon is already throwing the administration under the bus. Pop this up. Pentagon just threw Trump under the bus and tells Congress no sign that Iran was going to attack the United States first. So this is pretty stunning. A lot of these people at the Pentagon, you know, this is what the Trump administration is trying to eliminate which are objective voices in any, whether it be the Pentagon or any other department under his umbrella of terror, reign of terror. Trumps, he wants only loyalists. And so I know that what's going to happen now that the Pentagon is throwing him under the bus is he's going to call up Hegseth and there's going to be more firings. I mean that's just how this regime operates. Disloyalty is severely punished. And that's going to be the next round of headlines. And then my question goes to how much is the Republican Party and the corporate Dems, how much are they going to toler rate of the dismantling of the federal government? How much are they going to sit back and watch all of the guardrails disappear? And in this instance, as I've teed up in this episode, we're allowing all of the guardrails to disappear for Benjamin Netanyahu, a homicidal mass murderer. That's what he is. You can, everybody can dance around and go, well, I have these affection towards Israel. This is different. These are separate things. Benjamin Netanyahu is a murderous mass killer who has a collar around the President of the United States and is dog walking him. Jared Kushner and Witkoff want exactly what Benjamin Netanyahu wants. You know why? Because they want to make billions upon billions raising Gaza and developing it. These people see Arabs as inhuman. So this is, this is like playing the a board game war for them. They do not believe in shared humanity and shared universal rights. They value money over human beings. And this is the through line from what's happening now to the Republican Party The Republican Party for decades values money over human beings. Many, many, many Republicans in the United States of America right now, they will not give a shit about anything Trump did or said. Killing people, killing Americans in the street, racism, homophobia, misogyny. They don't give a when their 401ks plummet. That's when they care. Right? Because the Republican Party values money over human beings. And that is a cultural cancer in the United States of America that now corporate Dems are starting to adopt to an extent. But all of this, you know, happening here, right on the foothills of these massive, massive Epstein dumps, I found to be incredibly interesting. And my brain goes to. After seeing how interconnected Jeffrey Epstein was with these wealthy elites and trying to put an imprint on geopolitical decisions, the celebration of, of the Brexit in the communications with Thiel and Epstein were really interesting to me. How they celebrated that and that Epstein was aligned with Peter Thiel's dismantling of democracy. Or maybe Epstein was paid by Peter Till to care. Maybe Epstein was the biggest prostitute of them all. And clearly he's a child rapist. But this bit was really, really interesting. Pop this up. Okay? Messages from the Epstein files discussing Trump speculating that if he's cornered like a rat, he would begin a global conflict by bombing Iran in order to encourage an attack on the US So he can rush in, play the hero, and turn the international public favor back his way. And so the psychological profile on Trump has been delivered for well over a decade. The American Republican Party is not the sharpest among us. They're real slow to the uptake on just how idiotic Trump is, which is so obvious to me within a two to three second video. Yet you know what? I told you, they value money. They see, Trump loves what I love, he loves money. Trump hates what I hate. He hates these black and brown people. So that's enough for them. But I think, I genuinely believe Netanyahu has all, all the stuff on Trump. I think Netanyahu has Lindsey Graham doing a bunch of gay shit, because why the fuck, yeah, does Lindsey Graham care so much about Iran when he's from South Carolina? How does his position on Iran help the people of South Carolina get medical care, get higher wages, have better roads, have better hospitals? It's insanity. It is insane that these senators from these states, where there is so much working class suffering, their number one agenda is whatever Benjamin Netanyahu wants and what AIPAC wants, it is insane.

C (15:43)

Well, and Ted Cruz, the Texas flooding when all those children died. He's Talking about Israel. So I agree with you. There's just no way that somebody wakes up and Lindsey Graham's just all of a sudden like, you know, I believe in this, make Iran great again. That just doesn't happen. And when you look at the Epstein staff, you think about there's reporting that there are numerous storage, what do you call them, storage facilities that he rented with videos, archives and photographs. Archives. One would have to guess that the Israeli government has a copy of all of those things. You would just have to guess when you look at the emails and how Epstein was so ingrained in this, you know, world order, particularly with Israel and I, it's just, it's a stunning turn of events when you, you sit down and you realize that, like you said, US Intelligence is saying, nope, we probably shouldn't do this. And then you see all of this shit from Trump, from Mar? A Lago. I mean, that strikes me as unbelievable. That the President of the United States starts a war at a fundraiser like that tells me how unserious he is. And then you see, to your point earlier in this episode, I was reading an article right before we came online that there is talk and reporting, reporting that there are going to be generals that resign from the Pentagon based on this action. So who's going to fill those spots? Trump loyalists. And then you think, where do we go from here? How do we stop this? And then the question is, can we stop it? Is there anything that can be done to stop it? Because if you look to the leadership now, I'm not seeing it. Then you go to the midterms. You know, ICE is going to be surrounding the voters. Is he going to even pull elections because of wartime election? You can't have it. I mean, it just. There's a lot of reasons to be in fear right now, and it is very concerning how all of the people in the Epstein files are kind of all the players on the world stage. It's just. I don't think it's a coincidence.

A (18:07)

I don't think there's any question that Israel has everything that Epstein did, because I think Epstein was a Mossad agent, period. I mean, I think the files show the coordination. I think that it is fact at this point, based on the drips that I've seen in the Epstein files. It's just underreported in Western media. They tend to clamor on to Vladimir Putin, as we always do. Vladimir Putin, so provocative in Ukraine, Vladimir Putin dog walks Trump. Well, there's actually more evidence that he's more compromised by Israel than there is Russia. But Western media's lens in which this is reported, the mass murderer Benjamin Netanyahu is able to operate in Western media with impunity. And then we boogeyman Vladimir Putin, who is a war criminal. 100 but they both are. And one is able to the impunity that Benjamin Netanyahu gets in Western media, even from Rachel Maddow over at Ms. Now, which is really devastating because these are really credible voices and a lot of critically thinking spaces. And we need an opposition party that calls it like it is in the Democratic Party. And partnering with people like I've seen Marjorie Taylor Greene come out against this white war. I've seen Massie come out against this war. I think that any sort of partnership, bipartisan partnership to get America from ceasing to give trillions of dollars to these conflicts in the Middle east, we have to have strange bedfellows in doing that. And then also as a consumer of the news, it's incredibly important to get rid of cable news. It is a absolute cancer. Not to mention David Ellison, the largest donor to the idf, is now taking over cnn. But it's just we need to have independent voices. Vladimir Putin's a war criminal, a murderous dictator, and so is Benjamin Netanyahu. And the fact that this is the headline is US Israel, war after what happened in Gaza is just an atonement that I feel like we're just going to cross over the rubic. And we need political leaders that stand on business against genocide and illegal wars. And I just hope that the independent voices on either side will stand up against this and stop bending the knee to a maniacal mass murderer named Benjamin Netanyahu. All right. That's all we have.
