Did you ever think you would make it.
Adam Sosnick
Adam?
Patrick Bet-David
What's your point? The future looks bright. My handshake is better than anything I ever saw. It's right here. You are a one of one.
Vinnie Fisher
My son's right about.
Patrick Bet-David
I think I said this.
Tom Zawacki
It's almost like your mind's telling you.
Patrick Bet-David
No, but my body is telling me to do it. Yeah. So, gang episode 584, lots going on. India, Pakistan, getting uglier and uglier and uglier. Carney from Canada comes down and has a sit down with the President. Should have been Pierre Poliev. This other guy that you ran for office that lost in the most embarrassing way ever. I don't know if you guys have followed that story at all. If you haven't, it's.
Adam Sosnick
We haven't.
Patrick Bet-David
That's been out.
Adam Sosnick
We haven't.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. And then at the same time today, apparently the President's going to be making a massive announcement at 10am if we catch it, we'll show it to you as well on the podcast. In regards to a massive trade deal, New York Times leaked a story saying it's with us and Britain. We will see if that's what the story is all about. There's a few other stories that's out there as well that we will get into and discuss, such as Trump announcing that they leaked this. They're going to be announcing that he no longer wants to call it the Persian Gulf. He wants to call it the Arabian Gulf, which by the way, for 2500 years it's been called the Persian Gulf. Let me say that again. For 2500 years it's been called the Persian Gulf. I have some thoughts on it and I have a clip I want to show you from the shop. Back in the days when he was sitting down with the Wallace, I think it was Mike Wallace, the OG and then the son is Chris. But he sat down with Mike Wallace and that conversation took place. So that's something that's very important to Iranians. We'll talk about that. CNN's Harry Anton says Americans think Trump handling crime far better than Joe Biden. I mean, the fact that they even have to run a poll on that, it's slightly comical, but you know, they have to do what they have to do. Carney said Canada is not for sale. And then Trump replies, never say never. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney calls Trump transformational president. And the president said, your victory may have been even bigger than mine. So they're, they're very complimentary. But the deal, when the lady asked the question, said, so Mr. President, after the time time that you're having with Prime Minister Carney here, would this meeting at all cause you to remove all the tariffs on Canada? You know what his answer was within half a second? No. He just says no. So we'll find out why that is. We have some thoughts on the Teamster boss praises Trump foreign film tariff condemns Hollywood's UN American addiction to outsourcing. Newsom proposes to work with Trump to make America film again. Float seven and a half federal tax credit. Why does the federal government have to give you the tax credit? Why don't you give it Newsom out of your state? Why have the government take care of you while every time you get money from your state, the money kind of disappears and it's not invested properly like the $24 billion you got from your taxpayers from homelessness. But we have some thoughts on that. Obviously. Doug Burgum warns of real energy emergency that will permit China to dominate us. A lot to talk about with the India Pakistan conflict that started on April 22 with the Muslim terrorist organization that showed up and killed 26 of them. There's a video clip of a guy who's on a zip line recording himself. He doesn't know what's going on. They're killing the people on the ground. He gets the footage of people getting shot and killed while he's ziplining through. Maybe we'll show the clip here while we're going through it. Rob, I know you do have that clip as well. It's tragic what's going on there. But by the way, within days you're going to hear people talking about free Pakistan. And you know, the same way they call the Maryland man, they're going to say, you know, you know, freedom fighters, you know, they're going to use phrases like this. So just wait. That's what BBC was doing themselves as well. And they're using a different word which maybe we'll get into moment. Harvard president is confronted with evidence of liberal bias. Rob, do we have a video on that to show? Okay, fantastic. Ultra petty new California law tricking drivers into paying huge fines. Don't you just love when California comes with good policies, creative policies on how to get money from taxpayers? Interesting. You got to tell them they're so creative on taxing people more.
Adam Sosnick
I might move.
Patrick Bet-David
And what I even love more is how honorable to people in California are that they love paying more taxes. Bring them more that desire to be so giving in California and say, you tax me more, please I love it. Give, give my taxes. Wonderful people of California that is driving them insane. But you have choices, folks. There's called 49 other states. You chose one of them. There's plenty other great states in America they can choose from this next one. Stephen A. Smith said he's glad that Trump won because Demps have played black Americans like suckers and Vinnie loves that.
Adam Sosnick
He just found, he just found all this out.
Patrick Bet-David
Listen, Pete Hex said is firing generals by the way, a lot. One five star and four four star generals. Because those guys, when you become at that level sometimes you're no longer a soldier, you're more like a politician. You are because the Congress, you know, it's a different kind of a thing. AOC and Sanders fall flat with young voters as Gen Z rejects Weird radical wink. And by the way, Bernie Sanders. Vinnie told me about this video. Apparently I haven't seen this video. I'm going to see it for the first time and react to it. He's being asked why did you spend $200,000 on private jet?
Adam Sosnick
And apparently he says hold on.
Patrick Bet-David
You.
Adam Sosnick
Expect me to stay in line? Are united, what do you create? The more his hands go.
Patrick Bet-David
Don't believe this, by the way. I don't believe you're going to see it until I saw the video. I've not seen it until I see it. Until I see it.
Tom Zawacki
I saw it.
Patrick Bet-David
Iran tests missiles it claims can penetrate. What a word. US and Israeli defenses. Ok, so that's Iran. I mean they're just plain tough guy right now. High school juniors with a $70,000 a year job offers. According to Wall Street Journal, Florida's Covid era housing boom is over. Biggest decline in prices in more than a decade in Florida.
Tom Zawacki
Let's go, Vinnie. Now's the time.
Patrick Bet-David
I'm a psychologist who studies couples. Not me, but this story. The number one phrase that breaks up relationships. It's more damaging than you think, by the way. Brace for impact. Maybe watch that section of the episode without your spouse coming. Like B, don't watch today's podcast because I don't want to get into a fight with you. It's going to lead to a fight, maybe even 17 divorces. We don't want to take any responsibility for that.
Tom Zawacki
So I'm the type of person bring your spouse for this segment. Yeah, significant other.
Patrick Bet-David
Bring your spouse at your own risk. It is what it is. And we got some stuff that's going on with Fed. Everybody wants to know who this John Bryan guy is who claims Prince Andrew had sex with minors and openly talked about it. James o' Keefe dropped another one. Good for him. Pam Bondi dismisses claim Epstein's info is missing and defense delays and releasing files Cash Patel erupts at Democratic lawmaker over capital. Right, you got to see this one. You got to see this one. It's epic. And then we got a few other things. There's a 17 second speech that Hexith gave. That's phenomenal. And then some of the stuff that happened with Lady Gaga. Suspected terrorists accused of planning a to kill fans at Lady Gaga concert. Idid as immigrant recently deported from the US you don't say.
Adam Sosnick
That's how many congressmen are going to fly there and try to bring him.
Chris
Back an angry illegal alien?
Adam Sosnick
Because you know I hate birthdays. You know I hate birthdays. But I just told.
Chris
Don't do it.
Patrick Bet-David
Don't do it. I don't want you to say it.
Adam Sosnick
No. What?
Patrick Bet-David
Because. Is this who I birthday? It is.
Adam Sosnick
No, no, no. It's not a birthday.
Patrick Bet-David
What?
Adam Sosnick
It's not a birthday. Guess what today is. Remember I told you may is dope?
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah.
Adam Sosnick
Today, May 8th is my three year anniversary.
Patrick Bet-David
Get out of here, baby man.
Adam Sosnick
Let's go.
Patrick Bet-David
And by the way, today is also a guy named Tony's birthday.
Adam Sosnick
Is it really?
Patrick Bet-David
It's Tony's. Tony, if you're listening, Tony, happy birthday. I know Tony's had an incredible last seven days, but it's Tony's birthday. Tony, we love you. Happy birthday to you, buddy.
Adam Sosnick
Let's go.
Patrick Bet-David
Hopefully future looks bright.
Tom Zawacki
Tony's on vacation and happy anniversary back tomorrow.
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, fantastic. Good for you, Tony, wherever you are, my friend. Thank you. Tell all the ladies we said all right.
Chris
When did he go to Vermont?
Patrick Bet-David
So, guys, before we get into the podcast, this is the one thing we've been looking forward to announcing. For those who are insiders with us that participate with medavid consulting and some other things that you do, you always will get access to merch that's coming out before everybody else. However, after a long time of me wearing Stefano Richie clothing, the partnership is becoming more and more evident and public. We're excited about the collaboration between the valuetainment brand and Stefano Richie. This has only happened with a couple different people that they've done this with ourselves, Bocelli. And it's exciting to see what's going on with this. So at sls, at Mar a Lago, we launched our premium, premium quality gear. For some of you that are business owners that want to wear cream of the crop clothes, ties, you Know jackets, all of that. We have that here for you. Rob, if you can play this clip here. So we officially now have a collaboration of ties with Stefano Richie. We have this jacket that just came out, new ties with valuetainment on it. A blue sports jacket that looks amazing with the valuetainment logo. The button, I don't know if you saw the button there with the valuetainment logo on the side of it. Subtle tie and valuetainment belt. Absolutely sick belt that we have. Again, this is for those that are business owners. Can you show us this jacket here that you have? Chris, Go for it. Let's go to Chris here.
Chris
Appreciate it. Thanks, Pat. So we're going to walk you through our 16 units that we have of this lamb skin leather aviator bomber here. 100% lamb skin. I'm going to walk you why you're saying, Chris, it looks like we have a couple logos. We don't know what's going on. But let me walk you through why it's special. Obviously. Lion Shield branding.
Vinnie Fisher
Right?
Chris
Let's walk you through what these, these degrees mean. This is exactly our degrees here. We're on a, a, a landing pad here in Florida. This is where we take off with, with you guys sitting at home. And let me walk you through why it's special on the inside. So one of the things that Pat has said to us and, and mentions every day. So we have a little leather patch here. It says greatness isn't reached by staying on the ground. It's earned by taking off when others are afraid to fly.
Patrick Bet-David
My man.
Chris
So my, my man Pat came up with that. It makes sense. With our aviator jacket. Let me walk you through our custom lining. You can see that is sick. That is VT with our Lion Shields. Each of the 16 that are remaining are going to be hand signed by Pat with this leather patch. So each one is going to be signed by Pat here on corporate. You're going to see them. We're going to do it right now for you guys just to show how special it is.
Patrick Bet-David
You want to show the back what's on the back? Turn it around.
Chris
Yeah, let me finish. So when you make that statement, when you walk away, you walk out of that room, you get out of your car, your jet, wherever you're going, that's what you're going to see. You're setting a statement here and then.
Patrick Bet-David
American flag on the side. Bring it over here.
Chris
Chris, one last thing too. Two hours of sandblasting literally to make.
Patrick Bet-David
That America, let me tell you.
Chris
So someone sat there for two hours.
Patrick Bet-David
And when you put it on, it's unfreaking believable. I'll sign that. Rob, if you can go on the BT merch as well for this limited edition items that we. By the way, there's only 16 of these. The Stefano Richie ties, they're all numbered out of 50. Only 20 are left. The jackets that you see over there, the blue one, there's only 10 jackets left. Two of the size 42, two of the size 42, and 44. Only 146.
Adam Sosnick
Only.
Patrick Bet-David
Only 148 and only 150. And those shirts, the dress shirts, the blue and the black, those will go in no time. If you zoom in on those shirts. Rob, if you don't mind clicking on that, Just click on one of them and zoom in. The inside says, future looks bright with the VT logo on it. I'm going to sign this guy over here. This is so sick. Okay, Chris, if you want to come grab this, guys, all you have to do is go to vtmerch.com to get this gear. This will literally go because it is limited. And again, if you're a business owner, if you ever see me wear these black shirts. Now you're seeing what we're doing. The black and blue shirts, valuetainment gear. Go to vtmerch.com to place your order. Limited supplies. This will go in no time and cannot wait to see you guys sported and post pictures of it all over the place. All right, let's get right into the story. First story I want to talk about, Rob, is India and Pakistan. This thing got ugly very, very quickly. So the sequence of what happened here, Rob, if we want to kind of go through it, out on April 22, okay, a Muslim terrorist from Pakistan, from an organization. We can pull up the name attack in an area, a state called Kashmir, which the war with Kashmir has been going on for many, many years. 1947-49 was the first one. Then they did it again. 65. They attacked this area. And while they attacked this area, on April 22, they killed 26 men only. Specifically men only. They said, are you a Muslim? I am. On many cases. They asked the men to pull their pants down to see their dangling, to see if it's circumcised or not. And then they killed them because that was their way for them to know if they're Hindu or if they're Muslim. They killed them in front of their wives and their kids intentionally. They said, go back and say this to Modi. Then they would ask Are you a Christian? Are you a Muslim? Give us the Islamic prayer. Give us this. If they couldn't do it, they killed them right there, 26 of them. These were five men that did this. So what does India do? You humiliated them. By the way, there's a video of a zip line. Rob, if you want to show that zipline of a man, that zipline, and this video is being shown everywhere. First time you see this video is like, what's the big deal with the zipline? This man is ziplining. He's happy. We've all done this before, you and I. Most of us have done it. When you're recording it and you want to post it on Social. Rob, you can lower the audio just a little bit so we can hear the shooting. He's going minding his own business, not knowing. At the bottom there, there are terrorist attacks. They are shooting right now while he's going through this, not at him. You will see a man drop in the back right there. They're running around. They're scared. They're hearing all the stuff that's going on, the commotion.
Adam Sosnick
Look at this guy on the left.
Patrick Bet-David
They're worried. There's one person on the bottom there. Boom.
Tom Zawacki
He has no idea.
Adam Sosnick
He's just.
Patrick Bet-David
What'S going on. You can pause this right here, Rob. This story is all over the place, and it's been very, very aggressive with all the stuff that's taking place. Obviously, India's responded, attacking them, going back and forth. They're claiming there were planes that crossed. They're claiming even one plane that's a Chinese plane was apparently shot. So China's now getting involved, and China doesn't want to get involved. The concern with something like this is the fact that it may force China and US to get involved. China apparently has put somewhere around 85 to 100 billion dollars that they've invested in Pakistan. They don't want this war to be taking place. But if it does happen, it's also kind of strange, the timing of it, that this happens. The moment. April 22 is when this happens. April 25 is when Apple announces that they're moving the 60 million phones that they're building from India from China to India. Of course, they kind of whispered about April 7, but April 25 became official. Not looking pretty. The President reacted to the story, his reaction. Rob, is this the one that you have?
Chris
Yes, this is yesterday in the Oval Office.

Vinnie Fisher
No, it's a shame. We just heard about it just as we were walking in the doors of the Oval. Just heard about it. I guess people knew something was going to happen based on a little bit of the past. They've been fighting for a long time, you know, they've been fighting for many, many decades and centuries actually, if you really think about it. No, I just hope it ends very quickly.
Patrick Bet-David
By the way, did you see what the Pakistani officials said, Rob, about what nuclear bombs are all about? If you don't have that, Rob, just go online and look what the Pakistani official said on I want to say April 26th about Nuclear Museum. Just type in nuclear and museum, see if it comes up. Okay. Pakistan Nuclear. Right there. It's the. Right there on the bottom. Okay. Can you make that a little bit bigger? We are ready to stand up. Okay, play this clip and just read it on the bottom. Good, I'll read it. We are ready to stand up to India regardless of the price. If they want to hurt themselves, they have the capabilities to respond to them on every front. We are ready. We will not withdraw. Watch what he says. We will respond to them forcefully. If they do one thing, we will do two. I would like to add that we are proud of our former Prime Minister who enabled us to obtain nuclear bombs. These bombs are not here just to be displayed in the museums. They exist in order for us to use them. Therefore, if Pakistan needs to use them.
Tom Zawacki
We will use them.
Patrick Bet-David
Because we will not surrender to Indian threats. You can pause it right there. FYI, India is number six in the most nuclear weapons with 172. Pakistan's number seven with 170. They have the same amount of nuclear capabilities with what's going on Here in India. Tom, your thoughts on this and how ugly this could get?
Chris
Well, I always get worried when war hawks in the United States are not like, aghast at this, which you have to remember. The Pakistan Air Force is the Chinese Air Force. China sells aircraft to Pakistan. We cooperate with India on defense things. So when India and Pakistan go at it, there are people in the US Specifically military industrial complex, and the war hawks, they don't mind it because guess what we get to do? We get to test our stuff against China stuff because Pakistan's flying the China stuff. India's got basically US Stuff and, and stuff that they've built derivatively. And so we get to have a little test match. Do you see that? So in the mountains of Pakistan, Chinese jets fly over anti aircraft, shoots them down, and we say, hey, that worked. That's a great test. So there's that going on, which sickens me when warhawks in the United States really see proxy wars as nothing more than test beds and economic opportunity for the US Military industrial complex. That's my first point that sickens me. The second point is I believe that China has irritated Pakistan and started this and got some rebels going, just like the Chinese CIA. You know, I believe they instigated. I believe China helped instigate this because there's cards being played. Remember JD Vance, you were giving dates, Pat, and all you had to do back is go back two more dates. There was another date, which was the date that J.D. vance went over there and sat down, talked about a trade agreement. And then, then last week, who was on the Sunday shows, and he said, there's a deal going in Asia and it's done, done, done, done.
Adam Sosnick
Well, Lutnick.
Chris
Lutnick said that. And everybody said, oh, he's talking. We think he's talking about India. And he says, is it India? And he said, no, no, the President will make the announcement at the right time. But you could tell they're enthusiastic. So India's getting momentum with not just Apple, but with us on trade deal. That is, they are the one big chess piece that can play on the chessboard with China when it comes to man. And it would be China's strategic advantage to instigate something with Pakistan and to get them going. And by the way, this doesn't stop here because Pakistan's going to get support from countries that regard, because of its Muslim faith, as brothers in arms. You attack me. You attack you. You're attacking me.
Adam Sosnick
Would we take it? So here's my question. Oh, Tom. Because this is. It seems like, it's escalating. It's not going to stop. And by the way, just to piggyback on Tom's point, the combat aircraft path, the JF17 Thunder is a joint venture with Pakistan and China. All right? And then the Chengdu J10C is another acquired from China. And then also, what is it? Their air defense systems. The HQ9B is a high to medium altitude air defense system from China. So what I'm saying is, Tom, China armed Pakistan. Yeah. Would we, because we're the world's police, do we get involved to help India in this situation if it escalates?
Chris
I think we would probably do it the same way we did it with. With Ukraine. Here's the good stuff. Go get them.
Adam Sosnick
Got you. Okay, got you.
Patrick Bet-David
Because the way Biden did it with Ukraine.
Adam Sosnick
Yeah.
Chris
Well, Biden, remember, originally didn't give him the good stuff.
Adam Sosnick
Yeah, he gave him the whatever stuff. But here's my thing. This. We're talking about two nations that have nukes. And that type of. That type of him saying that, like, oh, we got nukes that not just supposed to be sitting there. We want to use them. That's not.
Patrick Bet-David
You want to know what the craziest thing is? Rob, can you go to the map? Go to the map there. Like Russia, Pakistan, China. Just go to the map of that area. Watch this. Yeah, zoom in a little bit. So. So take a look at this. So you got China there. Zoom in a little bit, if you could. You got China. Can you show where Pakistan is? You got China, you got India, you got Pakistan.
Tom Zawacki
Pakistan borders. Afghanistan and also Iran.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, Afghanistan slightly Iran on the bottom. And then if you look above them is who? Above them is who? Right there. What is that?
Tom Zawacki
That's China. Mongolia up there in Nepal to the left.
Adam Sosnick
Kazakhstan to the left.
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, so now who's above all of that? Right above it. Then you're going to what? Russia. Okay, so check this out. Do you know who gives 60% of the military supply to India? Russia.
Adam Sosnick
Really?
Patrick Bet-David
60%. Do you know who buys 40% of Russia's oil supply while everybody is not doing business with Russia?
Adam Sosnick
India.
Patrick Bet-David
India. So as weird as this is, China, you know, Putin and Xi have a relationship. Yeah, but Putin's not giving up the relationship with India. Putin's trying to play Switzerland. It's like, hey, guys, hey. I want to be more on India's side than I want to be on Pakistan's side. Big customer of a big customer of Putin. Okay. So that's complex and a little bit, you know, to look at the dynamics. Because you know, China's kind of like, well, I'm going to lean on Russia to take care of me. Well, no. And then China sign a 40 year lease at a port that's in Pakistan that they're leveraging and making a bunch of different investments that no matter what happens, good economy, bad economy, Pakistan has to pay China. The way they negotiate a deal, they have a choke hold on Pakistan is what they're doing. They have a chokehold on Pakistan strategically. Why would they be doing this? Because they know there's a country that can take a lot of business away from them. And who is that? That's India. They don't like India. They do not like what's going on with India. So as much as I believe my opinion, as much as I believe they're involved in the proxy war behind closed doors, they're also involved in the proxy war hoping India doesn't attack their investment of $85 billion that they made into Pakistan. And guess what? India knows. Oh, really? You want to do this? Guess what I'm going to be doing? I'm going to be attacking the areas you don't want me to attack. It's a very nasty thing going on right now. If you think about it right now this is a very similar situation to when Hamas attacked Israel October 7th. This is the Muslim terrorists. Rob, can you find the name so I can just say it correctly for the audience to see? And by the way, there are a lot of people that will disagree with us, a lot of people that are disagreed with us. This is another one of those things where the tension is going to be high. Yeah, there it is. That's the name. And Lashkar et Fuel the conflict have significant. Both Pakistani based groups have been heavily implicated in attacks in India Kashmir leading to border skirmishes. And by the way, this kid is being interviewed in India. This kid, this. Watch what happens. This kid goes viral. Watch this interview. Young kid. Go ahead and play this clip, Rob. Why should I be? Shame. Pakistan shouldn't be the same. It shouldn't. Long live India. Yes or no? Both sides.
Adam Sosnick
Young guy, you can pause it.
Patrick Bet-David
Right, Adam, your thoughts on this.
Tom Zawacki
The the India Pakistan relationship I would argue is probably the most important geopolitical situation going on in the world today. We all understand that United States and China are in the midst of a trade war. We understand that. But I don't think we're going to see a hot war with the United States and China anytime soon. God willing. India, Pakistan, two nuclear powers. They're in both the top 10 nuclear arsenals in the world.
Patrick Bet-David
I want to say six and seven.
Tom Zawacki
Okay, this thing can get ugly real quick. Real quick. So everyone's focused on these sort of land power religious border disputes that are happening all around the world, namely Russia, Ukraine, Israel, Palestine, Armenia, Azerbaijan. None of that is as big as what could potentially happen between India and Pakistan. This thing can get real ugly, and it's been ugly decade after decade after decade. So if you're in America, why would you care? This is why I always sort of have an issue with the American isolation list. We shouldn't do anything. Forget about the rest of the world. Okay, well, if India and Pakistan have a nuclear war, let me know how that works out for America and the rest of the world. So, by the way, look at the map of the world. By the way, here's something to consider. If you cut the world in half, 50% of the land mass is on the eastern hemisphere. Also, 50% of the land mass is on the Western Hemisphere. Okay, but do you know what percentage of the world population people are in the Eastern hemisphere versus the Western Hemisphere?
Adam Sosnick
Do you know, do we have more?
Patrick Bet-David
No way. No, it's got. It's got to be 2 to 1.
Tom Zawacki
They almost fat. They have 80% of the world population. 80% is in that side of the world. China, India, those are the two largest. Yeah, right. Russia.
Patrick Bet-David
Pakistan, Iran, Saudi, 6.6 billion to 1.1 billion. It's not even close to 1.
Tom Zawacki
So that side of the world, that's the old world. The west is the new world. So it could get real ugly real quick in that side of the world. Now, if you, if you kind of scroll out and this is sort of, you know, a metaphor. You know, they just had the NFL draft a week ago. Right. All right, and there's Shador Sanders. Where's he going? Who's going to be number one? All right, the guy from Miami. Okay, what's going on here right now? There's, you know, this is the. Probably the first time since World War II. Basically, India and Pakistan were established right after World War II. Much like most of these countries, the world is having a draft at this point. And at the. The team captains are the United States and China. Essentially democracies versus autocrats. And everyone gets their picks. And United States has basically aligned themselves with the following countries United the United Kingdom, obviously, Japan, Germany, Israel, India, South Korea, Canada, Poland. Shout out to our friends in Poland. Whereas China has aligned with the following countries. Russia, Iran, Pakistan, North Korea, Belarus, Turkey, and multiple Islamic Countries. Now, what's the common theme here? One stands for democracies, one stands for autocrats. So we're having this clash at the border, specifically in Kashmir, between Hindu democracy versus a Muslim. We'll see. Theocratic regime. We're going to see what happened. By the way, don't forget one last thing. Do you remember who the president or prime minister of Pakistan was? His name was Imran Khan. Do you remember this guy? Do you know where he is right now? He's in jail. I believe he's like the Bolsonaro of.
Patrick Bet-David
He was a soccer player.
Tom Zawacki
Is that what he was?
Patrick Bet-David
I think so. He was a soccer player.
Tom Zawacki
He's currently in jail right now. And under his regime, apparently relations with Iran, with India, were reaching the best they've seen in decades. But he's now in jail, and now this. So there's a lot of stuff that's going on here. And being in America, just keep your eyes out.
Patrick Bet-David
We're gonna see what's going on. And one of the challenges with. With this is the fact that, yeah, he was a soccer player back in the days, with a cricket player back in the days. He was an athlete. So one of the things with this is the water challenge that they're having, the water deal between the two. There's a ward for it. I think it's called the Indus Water Treaty that was signed many, many years ago, where they're sharing the water, and India's holding the water from Pakistan. And one of Pakistan's. I think it's six. They have a. They have a breakdown of what are six things you could do to us that would prompt us using a nuclear bomb on you. One of the six is if you don't allow us to get the water. And they're calling this something that can prompt a nuclear war. And India is not releasing the water, so they're still hanging on to it and not allocating the water that they need to be. This is a speculation on the story, so obviously, you don't provide water, man. That's. What are you supposed to do as a. You know, so it's complicated, but at the same time, you started the attack. I have to show strength.
Adam Sosnick
Of course.
Patrick Bet-David
What was that all about? Why'd you do that? We have to show strength, and we can't sit there and, you know, sympathize with why you're not getting this. You have to show power. That's what they're doing.
Adam Sosnick
We talked about this yesterday. Not to cut you off, Adam. We talked about, like, we throw away this world, nuclear. You know, everybody, they always scared us about Putin and nukes and all that. That's. That's BS for that guy from Pakistan to sit there and say, it's not going to sit in a museum, we will use it. We talked about this yesterday. If they launch a nuke and India launches back, what do you think happened? It's not going to just be like, oh, they launched, it's over. Because then think about the proximity of China and everybody's launching and it's called mutual destruction. Yeah, it's.
Tom Zawacki
Nobody works.
Adam Sosnick
So I hope they're monitoring these.
Patrick Bet-David
You know what the President said? He says he's willing to go anywhere to make sure this gets stopped.
Adam Sosnick
It has to be.
Patrick Bet-David
He's willing to go anywhere to make sure this gets stopped.
Tom Zawacki
I know you said this was complicated. When you say it's complicated, do you mean the mess, the situation? Do you mean geopolitical alliances? What's your take on the history of it?
Patrick Bet-David
I mean, this whole thing started off with Britain, where they have a problem. Pride of, hey, this is supposed to be ours. No, it's supposed to be ours and majority. This, this area that was Muslim area, but the guy that was running it was a Hindu. They end up giving a control for Hindu. It's a very complicated history that they have. But at the same time, look, history repeats itself. And you just hope these guys doesn't, you know, they don't go to the next level. I think China is using their creative methods of if it's not going to be covered, you want me to create some disruption in the world. Maybe this is one of the ways China sits there and says, oh, you want to, you want to play this tariff war? You want a nuclear war now let me create a nuclear war. They are so creative on the ways. If there's anybody in the world, I'm from Iran. You would think Iran would be at the top of the list. China is above Iran for me on who I trust the least, because China controls Iran today, of course. And so for us to see what's going to be happening, I think China's.
Tom Zawacki
China's the, the big boss.
Patrick Bet-David
They're the big boss.
Tom Zawacki
They're pulling the strings.
Patrick Bet-David
They are one.
Tom Zawacki
One thing I just want to say from an American standpoint, where I've been following this story for 25 years now, and I, and I learned about Pakistan. So what happened? So India and Pakistan. What's. Why did this happen? Oh, in 1948, they had a war and 2 million people were crisscrossing Countries and were killed. What, because we talked? The word genocide gets thrown out a little too loosely these days. There was a full on genocide between Pakistan and India. Now why did I start following this 25 years ago? Well because after 911 in America we started asking some questions. Who did what? What did who? Afghanistan? Is it Iraq? Weapons of mass destruct? Who's this guy? Osama bin Laden? What the hell here? And here's the point. Where did they find Osama Bin Laden? Where was Bin Laden bin hidden? Well he wasn't in Afghanistan. He was in Pakistan. And he was found one mile from a massive military base in Pakistan. Remember Seal Team six went in there. There it is right there. He was in a massive apparent mansion, what they called it the wizard mansion. Now here's what I do know. We talk about the intelligence communities, we talk about nuclear warheads. Both these countries, India and Pakistan have a top 10 intelligence company. Intelligent units all around the world. Obviously CIA, MI6, KGB, whatever you want to call it. India and Pakistan have massive intelligence units. So either this intelligence unit in Pakistan was stunningly incompetent to not know that the world's most wanted terrorist was one mile away from a military base or. Or they just looked the other way and they were complicit. So the United States went in there, Seal Team 6 and took out Bin Laden. Do you think they informed the Pakistani government or not? The answer is hell no. They went in there. Very cloak and dagger esque. And since they took out Bin Laden, the United States and Pakistan's, let's just say relationship has been at an all time low. I'm on Team India here just because they're our ally and Pakistan has a lot of explaining to do.

Period? Good point. All right, so let's go to the next thing here with Mark Carney. Rob, if you can pull it up, they had a meeting. Mark Carney from Canada, prime minister who beat out the other candidate, I forget his name, Pier Poiev, who had a massive lead at the beginning of the year, who marked him pretty bad in a very bad way. And he, you know, rejected the idea, wanted to go on Theovon, Joe Rogan, all these other stuff. The Nelk boys, ourselves and you know, campaign managers ran by pompous style way. But Mark Carney, see, that should have been Pierce sitting there, but Mark Carney got the seat because it takes a lot of work to, to get it and you have to compete for it. Competition is real. When you're campaigning, especially in countries like Canada, you don't, you can't be afraid of what the media is going to be saying. But if you are afraid of being what the media is going to be saying, you're going to lose to another guy that's going to sit there and do this. So Mark Carney is here with the president and having a lot of conversations. Rob, what clips do you have? Do you have a few of them?
Tom Zawacki
Yes.
Chris
This is the first one. This is where Mark Carney says that Canada is not for sale. And then President Trump responds with never say never.
Patrick Bet-David
Do you, do you have what he says prior to this? Do you have, matter of fact, can you do me a favor? Rather than going to clips, go online and find the entire interview and I'll tell you where we go with this because just go to YouTube, Rob, if, okay, if you go to YouTube, find the whole thing, you'll see because the sequencing of the way he does it. It's a clinic on communication, folks. It's an absolute clinic. It's, it's, which one is it? We're not going to watch the whole thing, but you can click on any one of them. Let's go to that one. Okay, so if you, if you watch this thing at the beginning where he's giving him compliments, okay, if you can make it a little bit bigger, he's giving him compliments. At the beginning. Go ahead and play it fast forward a little bit.
Vinnie Fisher
Thank you very much everybody.
Patrick Bet-David
Watch this.
Vinnie Fisher
It's a great honor to have Prime Minister Mark Carney with us. As you know just a few days ago he won a very big election in Canada and and I think I was probably the greatest thing that happened to him but I can't take full credit. His party was losing by a lot and he ended up winning. So I really want to congratulate him. Was one of the probably one of the greatest comebacks in the history of politics. Maybe even greater than mine.
Patrick Bet-David
Bingo. Trump will not say stop but I.
Vinnie Fisher
Want to just congratulate you. That was a great election. Actually we were watching it with interest and I think Canada chose a very talented person, a very good person.
Patrick Bet-David
Interesting.
Vinnie Fisher
As we spoke before the election quite a few times and it's an honor to have you at the White House and the Oval Office and you see the new and improved Oval Office as it becomes more and more beautiful. With love. You know we'll handle it with great love and 24 karat gold.
Patrick Bet-David
That always helps.
Vinnie Fisher
It's been going over some of the.
Patrick Bet-David
Fast beautiful pictures until it gets to the point. Just pause it right there. Let's see if that's the point what.
Vinnie Fisher
The purpose of what we were doing. So that's just news. We just found out about various Cs.
Tom Zawacki
Fast forward we can still commencement to.
Vinnie Fisher
Make like as big as it gets and I won't tell you on what but it's going to and it's very positive. I'd also I tell you if it was negative or positive. I can't keep that up. It is really really positive.
Patrick Bet-David
And that announce fast forward that gets a place where. See if that's the part where he's talking see if that's the part where he's explaining. Click on it. Let's see if this is the part.
Vinnie Fisher
When he wasn't given much of a chance and he did. He ran a really great campaign. He did a really great debate. I think that debate was very helpful.
Patrick Bet-David
Listen. So he's building him up.
Vinnie Fisher
Going to raise my hand. I don't know if that's good or bad. I shouldn't say that. It might. That might hurt you. But no, he ran a really great election. I thought and yeah. Something could happen. Something could happen.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
Please. What's the top concession you want out of Canada? The top concession you want out of Canada?
Vinnie Fisher
Concession?
Chris
Yes.
Vinnie Fisher
Friendship.
Patrick Bet-David
That's not a concession.
Vinnie Fisher
Oh just. I just. We're going to be friends With Canada, regardless of anything, we're going to be friends with Canada. Canada is a very special place to make. I know so many people that live in Canada. My parents had relatives that lived in Canada, my mother in particular, and. No, I love Canada.
Patrick Bet-David
A lot of.
Vinnie Fisher
I have a lot of respect for the Canadians. Wayne Gretzky, I mean, how good. The great one. You happen to have a very, very good hockey player right here on the Capitals. Who I have a lotteries. He is a big, tough cookie, too. He just broke the record and he's a great, great guy. And, you know, we had the. The team here and I got to.
Adam Sosnick
Know a lot of players.
Vinnie Fisher
But now Canada is a very special place.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. Please, Mr. President, Mr. Prime Minister, fast forward a little bit. When he starts talking about real estate, because. Is that the part? Let's see if that's the part.
Vinnie Fisher
Just a straight line right across the part. I'm a real estate tax cut.
Patrick Bet-David
Wow. Go back. Advantage to his face. Look what he says. Go back a little bit more.
Vinnie Fisher
You get free military.
Patrick Bet-David
Go back a little bit.
Vinnie Fisher
Two to tango, right?
Patrick Bet-David
Go back a little bit more. Watch this, watch this. This is the part he says it.
Vinnie Fisher
No, no. Well, I still believe that, but. But, you know, takes two to tango, right? But no, I do. I mean, I believe it would be a massive tax cut for the Canadian citizens. Tremendous medical cares and other things. Things. There would be a lot of advantages, but it would be. It would be a massive tax cut. And it's also a beautiful. You know, as a real estate developer. You know, I'm a real estate developer at heart. When you get rid of that artificially drawn line, somebody drew that line many years ago with like a ruler. Just a straight line right across the top of the country. When you look at that beautiful formation when it's together, I'm a very artistic person, but when I looked at that. But I said that's the way it was meant to be. But, you know, it. I just. I do feel it's much better for Canada. But we're not going to be discussing that unless somebody wants to discuss it. I think that there are tremendous benefits to the Canadian citizens. Tremendously lower taxes, free military, which honestly we give you essentially anyway, because we're protecting Canada. If you ever had a problem. But I think, you know, it's a wonderful marriage because it's two places. They get along.
Patrick Bet-David
They like each other a lot. Watch.
Tom Zawacki
Well, if I may, as you know.
Chris
From real estate, there are some places.
Patrick Bet-David
That are never for sale.
Vinnie Fisher
That's true.
Patrick Bet-David
We're sitting in one right now, you.
Chris
Know, Buckingham palace as well.
Patrick Bet-David
And having met with the ownership of.
Adam Sosnick
Canada over the course of the campaign last several months.
Patrick Bet-David
It's not for sale, won't be for sale ever.
Tom Zawacki
It means the people of Canada, the.
Chris
Opportunity is in the partnership and what.
Patrick Bet-David
We can build together.
Tom Zawacki
And we have done that in the past.
Patrick Bet-David
And part of that, as the President.
Tom Zawacki
Just said, is with respect to our own security.
Chris
And my government is committed for a.
Patrick Bet-David
Step change in our investment in Canadian security and our partners leadership. And I'll say this as well, that the President has revitalized international security, revitalized.
Chris
NATO and us playing our full weight in NATO.
Patrick Bet-David
And that will be part of.
Vinnie Fisher
It's true.
Patrick Bet-David
And they have.
Tom Zawacki
They have.
Vinnie Fisher
I must say Canada is stepping up the military.
Patrick Bet-David
Rob, you can now participate. Look at that clip that you had when he says never say never. Watch this.
Vinnie Fisher
They get along very well. They like each other a lot.
Patrick Bet-David
Well, if, if I may, as you know from real estate, there are some. No, that's not it, Rob. That's the one. Just watch this. It's the one that's never sitting in one right now maybe fast forward and I'll say this. Keep going, keep going, keep going. We literally just watched it.
Tom Zawacki
It's right at the end and Mark.
Vinnie Fisher
Knew, you know, they were low and now they're stepping it up and that's a very important thing. But never say, never say never.
Adam Sosnick
He just said never, never, never.
Patrick Bet-David
So Tom, your thoughts on this?
Chris
First of all, Carney is here because he has to be, because the campaigning is over, all the picking on Trump and all the picking on things is over. Suddenly he's over here. Something he also said in an interview later yesterday where he said he's a transformational president focused on the economy with a relentless focus on the American workers, securing your borders, ending the scourge of fentanyl and other opioids and securing the world. So suddenly Carney becomes the PR guy for President Trump. That's what that sounds like. But why is he doing that? Cuz the election is over and now it's time to do deals. And Carney needs a trade deal and Carney needs cooperation and Carney needs President Trump to take his foot off the tariff pedal because it's working. And so now he's coming down here trying the best he can to say, well, we're not for sale. But meantime, calling Trump a transformational president, that's what we're seeing here. Election's over, it's time to deal. And so who does he come. I'm coming to your house, and I'm coming soon, and I need to talk to you.
Patrick Bet-David
Adam.
Tom Zawacki
Look, the relationship with Canada and the United States is arguably our most important relationship in the world. Strategically, militarily, economically, domestically. I mean, they're our neighbors. So, yeah, you know, the China relationship with the United States is probably the most important to manage. But they're not our friend, they're not our ally, they're our competitor. And you could use a different word to describe what we got going on with them. But we don't need to have issues with Canada. At the same time, let's recognize we are the little. We are the big brother. They are the little brother. And they should respect the fact what we do for them, especially militarily. The one thing where I don't want to upset pbd, but you did notice what Trump said. He said, you know, a lot of people think that you have me to thank for this election, for you winning. Mark Carney. So I understand that Pierre Poliev royally screwed up, but he also was running against not only just Mark Carney, he was also running against Trump, in my opinion. And he should have managed it better. Pierre Poliev, he should have done what he needed to do. He should have campaigned better. He should have gotten off his lazy ass and gone on these podcasts. But not only fighting against Carney, fighting against Trump is, I think, the reason that Pierre Poliev lost.
Patrick Bet-David
That's 100% on Pierre Poliev. Because if you don't. Doubling down, if you don't know how to handle Trump, because you are so afraid of the liberal media and what Canadians think about Trump. You're not a change agent. You're just the same as usual, boring candidate that comes up and acts tough and says what he says. And here's a clip, by the way. Tuesday, we do a podcast in the afternoon. This clip circulates. Okay? Rogan doing a pod, and he asks him about Pierre Poliev. Look at this clip here. Go ahead, Rob, play this clip. It reminds me of what happened in Canada with the truckers. Yes. I mean, they froze their. They froze their bank accounts or people who donated to them.
Adam Sosnick
Yeah, people who donated to them got.
Chris
Their bank accounts frozen.
Patrick Bet-David
How insane. Insane. Insane.
Adam Sosnick
And then that same party just won again.
Patrick Bet-David
Good job, Canada.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
If they didn't have good bear hunting, I would never be.
Adam Sosnick
I do have to say I offered to have that Pierre guy come on.
Patrick Bet-David
The podcast really didn't do it. Wouldn't do it. Thought it was too problematic or whatever. Jordan told me. I forget what he said, but they.
Adam Sosnick
They were telling him not to do it.
Tom Zawacki
Like, his advice. Does he mean Jordan Peterson?
Patrick Bet-David
Hey, hey, dumbass.
Tom Zawacki
Jordan Farmer, the point guard.
Patrick Bet-David
So funny.
Adam Sosnick
Ucla.
Tom Zawacki
So he said that Jordan Peterson. Correct me if I'm wrong, Jordan Peterson was the one that advised him not to go.
Chris
I thought it was a correction. Jordan.
Patrick Bet-David
He said Jordan said his advisors.
Adam Sosnick
Somebody from Joe's team.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. Peterson had my interpretation. My English is my fifth language, but my interpretation. Pierre's been on Jordan Peterson three times, maybe four times.
Tom Zawacki
Yes.
Patrick Bet-David
So Joe asks Jordan, hey, can you ask Pierre to come? Yeah, Joe asked Jordan. Jordan asked Pierre's camp. Pierre's camp says his advisor said they don't think it's a good idea for Pierre to get on Rogan.
Tom Zawacki
Can I say one thing about problematic? Jordan Peterson has been on Rogan how many times? I don't know if you could find out many times. Okay, so if I. Jordan Peterson is Canadian. He's respected. We all don't respect what Jordan Peterson has done. If I'm Jordan Peterson and I'm a sort of a strategist, if I have a direct phone call to Pierre or his team, I would say the following. Listen, guy, get your ass on Rogan immediately and start doing the podcast rounds. Jordan Peterson is a smart guy. I have no idea why he didn't just say, listen, get down to Rogan. Now I've done Rogan. What is. What is going on? Joe Rogan. What has that done for Jordan Peterson's career? Has that helped or hurt his career? Obviously, obviously it's helped. So just look at the template here. Look at the case example. Is it 10 times? How many? 8 times.
Adam Sosnick
So let me ask you a question then.
Tom Zawacki
So he goes eight times and you go, zero.
Adam Sosnick
Well, here's my question then. Maybe this is a possibility. The people that were around Pierre were actually against him because nobody in their right mind. No, hold on a second. I'll let you finish, Adam. Okay. Make the case for me how somebody in a normal person with a regular working brain would be like, nah, going on the most popular podcast in the history of the world. Still happening would be a bad idea. Go ahead. Go ahead. Try. Try to explain that to me. It doesn't make sense.
Patrick Bet-David
Can you do me a favor? What you're saying, can you do me a favor and pull up the clip I sent you by Doug Ford that says he used a terrible campaign manager and he should have used the one that I told him about? Do you have that clip that I sent you, if you want me to, I'll. I'll text it to you. I have it here. So this was said three weeks ago. Okay, I have it. You have it. Can you play that clip? I'll just text it to you as well. If you could. So now some people are blaming the campaign manager. We talked about it on Tuesday, and I told you guys that Ford said this, and I found the clip. Here's a clip. If you can play it, go for it. You know somethin? As for Corey, I've said right from day one, he's tough as nails, but he's the best campaign manager in the country. And to be very frank, if you. Corey was running that campaign, I don't think Mr. Pauly ever would be in the position he's in right now. But it's still a lot of time left. We still have debates. At the end of the day, the people will decide three weeks which way they want this country.
Vinnie Fisher
So three weeks.
Patrick Bet-David
You can pause it. He is saying that the campaign manager is the reason why it happened. But anyways, regardless of it, let's go back to Carney. The fact that this conversation is happening. Carney was able to manage Trump in a better way. I do believe they had a conversation together. What's the first time they spoke, by the way? When Trump all of a sudden started supporting him? When was the first time that Trump. The first time Trump started being complimentary about. About Carney and taking shots at. At Poiliev, at Pierre. Okay, when was the first time that that took place? Because if you think about the timing there to a guy like Trump, he's sitting there saying, what is wrong with you, Pierre, I tried to work with you. I tried to do something with you. You're not being diplomatic. This is who I have to deal with. And Carney is easier for me to deal with than you. I think that's when you realize there are some issues. I want to say this was a few weeks ago. This could have been four to six weeks ago when it happened. It's not May 6th. This is four to six weeks. Six weeks ago when the conversation took place. And, you know, he said 51st and Poiev, and you know, Trump was critical of Poiliev. And then it led to what it is, which means Poliev doesn't know how to handle a guy like Trump. And again, you're not fit to be an executive. You're fit to be a person that's going to have to ask another person to step down to get A parliament job after having been in that business since you were 24, 25 years old. Superstar, great speaker, great motivational speaker. This looks very good on camera. Beautiful wife, good looking guy, but not a winner.
Tom Zawacki
Do you think that Pierre Pollyv, like, if you can compare him to someone in America running an election, would, in my opinion, would you compare him to.
Patrick Bet-David
Someone like a Ron DeSantis, guaranteed, really very similar styles.
Tom Zawacki
Okay, explain that.
Patrick Bet-David
Both feel like they belong there and, you know, it's automatic without having to work for. Look, let's, let's be fair. The governor eventually ended up coming on a podcast here, and it was the most viewed podcast he did out of everybody because it was every. Everybody reacted to it in a marketplace. It doesn't matter. Fallon, Kimmel, the View, everybody. You call it good or bad. It doesn't matter. They react. It doesn't matter. They. He. It was his opportunity to show the lighter side of him, the same way where everybody said Trump's hair is fake and he went on Fallon or Kimmel and he allowed him to play with it and he was on his way to Rhode Island. This was a moment for him to be human. He missed it.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
So. But very similar styles. The different is DeSantis eventually went and talked to everybody. He did not. DeSantis eventually want to talk to Kelly, everybody. He didn't do it. So I would say moments of it was similar to DeSantis, but at least eventually they made the pivot.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
Pierre never made the pivot.
Tom Zawacki
And don't forget, DeSantis actually went and got his job back as governor of the great state of Florida.
Patrick Bet-David
And now maybe his wife may be running.
Tom Zawacki
Exactly. Whereas Pierre Poliev lost not only the election, lost his seat and had to give like a, like a re.
Patrick Bet-David
Gift, like a. Yeah.
Tom Zawacki
Concession seat.
Patrick Bet-David
Let's move on. Let's move on to the next story here on what's going on. So the story I want to go to is. Let me see which story I want to go to right now. Let's go to Doug Bergen. Doug Bergen warns of real energy emergency that will permit China to dominate us. If you can play this clip, Rob, I do know you have a clip on this. So Interior Secretary Doug Burgam warned on Fox Business Kudlow that the real energy emergency that we have right now is that we don't have enough energy in this country. Is that the clip, Rob?
Chris
Yep.
Patrick Bet-David
Go for it.
Adam Sosnick
President Trump on day one declared a national energy emergency, and rightfully so, because we're under threat from China related to critical minerals Levels. We've got huge challenges on electrical power generation.
Tom Zawacki
We saw what happened this past week.
Patrick Bet-David
In Spain that could be happening in America yet even this summer because the.
Adam Sosnick
Biden administration rules put our grid at such risk. But then in terms of oil and natural gas, which helps us power our.
Tom Zawacki
Economy and again, right here on the.
Adam Sosnick
On the Gulf coast, selling energy to our friends and all allies, all this natural gas that's going around the world to help displace energy that was coming from our adversaries.
Tom Zawacki
A total unabashed embrace of energy dominance in the world. There's no apologizing for it. And you know, of course you meet with all these guys that work on the.
Patrick Bet-David
Rob, you can pause that. Tom, your thoughts on this?
Chris
Well, first of all, you know, the Department of Energy is not a sexy department. It's not like Secretary of State going out there on these trade deals and things like that. But you know what? Doug Burgum is doing a job for America right now and both sides know it, but only one side will admit it. Because what has happened with EVs and with data centers is he's right. We have an energy shortage in America. Despite solar panels and wind farms and things that have done. We have an energy shortage in America. This is why Google is trying to get permits for its own micro nukes to supply data centers. It's why Oracle is trying to do the same thing to get permits. And Doug is out there just absolutely, I think he gets, he could be, you know what, he could be like the MVP runner up in the administration this year. I say that because the MVP is going to be whoever figures out all the trade deals and all the tariffs and things coming back. And of course the market's already back up from where it was on April 1st. So we're on our way back in a big way for people that lost, not lost, but saw their 401ks go down. Now they're back up. See, that didn't take long. But right now I want to show you something. I sent this to the, the World Nuclear association put out their report for Q1 on March 25th. So this is fresh data. Scroll down to the bottom of that, all the way down and you will see in the world. So the world right now there are 66 nuclear reactors under construction, 85 planned and 344 proposed. So just remember that, okay, China has 30 under construction, 36 planned and 158 proposed. 45% of the nuclear power coming in the world is coming out of China. Now let's Go down there. We're fighting with China. Scroll down and find the United States.
Tom Zawacki
Rob.
Chris
Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. 00013 proposed. That's why Google and Oracle are trying to get permits for micro reactors because they're not getting help from the infrastructure power grid and the Department of Energy. So do you remember Vinnie too? Here's an easy one.
Adam Sosnick
Okay.
Chris
A great, great question.
Adam Sosnick
Go crazy. Numbers. But go ahead.
Tom Zawacki
Okay.
Chris
No numbers. But do you remember when everybody was upset about TikTok in China? Why was that? Where were the servers and where do you think the data was going?
Adam Sosnick
You did it again, Tom. I don't know. Did you know that people thought the.
Chris
Data from TikTok was going back to China? Okay, so if you thought that was a problem, what about if we can't build the big data centers here and the data centers are built around the world where we can't really exert control and secure them? That means America is using cloud services and the data centers might be elsewhere. It is a national security imperative that big data servers are built here just like we're trying to help, you know, Taiwan semi build those plants in Arizona so the chips can be here. And if China makes a move on Taiwan. We saw the chart that there's a bunch of that here. And right now we're in a position where all we need is about two and a half years. All we need is about two and a half years for those chip plants. So at the end of Trump's second term, if those chip plants are built, one of the things that Donald Trump can put a big W on the scoreboard is he moved so much chip manufacturing to the US from Taiwan to neutralize that China threat. Well, Doug Burgum, God bless you, I'm a big fan for real reasons. And he's out there talking about this saying, we have an energy crisis. And he's right. We need to get permits. This is not Three Mile island nukes. These are new technology. Smaller footprint nukes. But this is what we need. And look at this. Thanks to the Greens and thanks to other lobbying, we have 13 proposed in the United States and China. Watch out. Gang is building. 40% of the nuclear power currently being built and proposed in the world is being built in China.
Adam Sosnick
Why are we. So those 13 proposed, why aren't they. Why aren't they pulling the trigger? Right now? Trump is in charge.
Chris
Well, I think that's exactly what's happening. They got to get Congress behind them. But Doug Burgum is out there banging the drum Saying, hey, we got to get going.
Adam Sosnick
Okay?
Tom Zawacki
Better than the drums and the cheerleader.
Chris
Tom, that's not. That's the.
Patrick Bet-David
That's the fact.
Tom Zawacki
Okay? Yeah. That's what I'm saying. That's Jerome Powell's job. So I'm glad that you caught the. Caught on to how great Doug Burgum you actually is. I was on.
Chris
This guy will interrupt you and say you were behind Doug at the beginning, beginning of the campaign.
Tom Zawacki
I was. And I'm so glad to see that Doug Burgum is part of the Trump administration. We saw him at the inauguration or at cpac. He's awesome, dude. He was one killer crossover away from maybe being president. You remember during the election, this guy was in a ankle braces. One of his staff crossed him over and almost dunked on him. And that lost his chances, but he showed up. You got to give Doug, Doug, Doug a best friend hug. No doubt. But here's the deal. He's the secretary of the Interior. What does that even mean, secretary of the Interior? I'll tell you what it means. Here's what he's in charge of. Natural resources, public lands and water. You notice when he said that statement about what he's talking about with China, why we need to compete, he said the following. We have to compete with the electric power grid, oil and natural gas and minerals. How many times have we heard those phrases with Ukraine, with China, with Russia, with Greenland. We're going to make Greenland great again. Doug is very much a part of what's going on with that. He's smart, he's accomplished. But the most important thing, why I like him, he's relatable, he's a good dude. He's a businessman. He's made a ton of money, and he was the governor of North Dakota. And I'm glad that he's part of the Trump administration. And if you remember one thing about when Trump came to office, when he was, I think, being interviewed by Hannity, he said, yeah, I'm gonna be a dictator on day one. What were the two things he said? Number one, we're going to shut down the border. And number two, we're going to drill, baby, drill. So Doug's in charge of that right now.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. But when you think about the nuclear plants in America, Rob, if you go and type in history of nuclear plants and how many we've built since Chernobyl, if you just type it in, there'll be a chart that'll come up. And when you see what happened and where we compare to others Statista has a great stat on this of where we were at against them because we stopped building. Oh, right there. The, the. Go to the right. No, no, go back to where you were at, Rob. Oh man. Go to that, that one more down, one more down. Right there, the one on the yellow left, yellow left. Click on that and, and zoom in. I think this is the one that shows how little we built. Now go a little bit lower. Okay, it's right there. Zoom in. Is that the one that's shown by company, by countries, reactor startups and shutdowns in the world in units. Okay, so that's exactly what you want to find, except you want to find which one of them shut down in America. So reactor startups and shutdowns in the world. Just copy paste that in and you will see America fully stopped. Fully stopped. And others continued. And we fell behind in a big way. I don't know which one it is, but there's definitely one of them that shows the chart. Is that the one, Rob, on what America looks like. Text it Brandon to see if I have it here. Is this the one other countries, China. Okay, this is the one. Yeah, this is the one, Rob, if you have it, he send it to us. If you can pull it up. Do you have it? Yep. Okay, so this is what shows who construction starts of nuclear reactors in the world. Okay, see where there is, where it says other countries, a lot of that is us. And look at how China doesn't start anything until 84, 85. Do you see how small they are? And then now look at the last 20 years where China is. Okay, look how many they're building just in 2010, they're building 10. The rest of the world is building five. Do you see that? So if you go look at the following year, the rest of the world in 2012 is building two, they're building three. Okay, if you look at the last couple of years, 21, 22, 23 out of the 10 that we did in 21 and 22, guess what, 21 and 22, six is China, four is the rest of the world, five is China, five is the rest of the world. And in 2023, new nuclear reactors being built. China is five. The rest of the world. One hundred and ninety five countries is one. One is thinking long term, the other ones are not. Now, part of this could be regulatory. Part of this could be that regulation to build one in America is so complicated that it takes years to get approval to build something like this. Part of it could be the fear part of it could be the. When you hear the word nuclear, what do you think about Chernobyl?
Chris
Three Mile Island?
Patrick Bet-David
That's what you think? Never again. It's gonna blow up. It's gonna do this. They're like, no, we have to go in this direction because the world needs power. So this could be another thing. What Tom talked about is very important. This could be another thing that America and other countries can rely on them for nuclear power when there is no more energy left. Adam, your thoughts?
Tom Zawacki
Yeah, just real quick. I want to give a shout out to this one guy. Rob, I sent you this picture. This one guy actually taught me this very recently, and it was none other than Patrick Bet David, because you just did an entire episode about China. I'm sorry, Pakistan and India and nuclear arsenals. But the top of the statista graphic is China is expanding their nuclear arsenal. Number one is Russia. Number two is United States. But number three is China. And since 2023, so the last two years, they're plus 90 in their nuclear arsenal, whereas Russia is minus 109.
Patrick Bet-David
This is different, though.
Tom Zawacki
Okay, explain the difference.
Patrick Bet-David
No, no, no. This is arsenal.
Tom Zawacki
Okay?
Patrick Bet-David
I'm not talking arsenal. I'm talking nuclear energy. We're like, you know how we're doing in America?
Tom Zawacki
We do.
Patrick Bet-David
What are the different types of energy to get? You know how they do the solar? Okay, those are extremely problematic. You got solar, you got all these other ways. One of the cheapest and most effective ways of doing is nuclear energy. Google's going that direction, Amazon's going. That these big companies are starting to realize, how the hell am I going to be able to host and do all the stuff that I'm doing with different businesses that I'm running? I need nuclear power. That's what I need. Is that. Is that America, by the way, what you just showed up? Yes, I'll pull that up. That's what's scary about it. Because of regulation. Look at this. Look how many nuclear power capacity additions we had by year. Look at 70. Look at 71, 72, 6, 73, 4, 75 and 9. We kept building and building and building them. And then after 84, 85, Chernobyl, what happens goes all the way down to 0101. From 96 till 2015, it's zero. From 96 till today, it's zero. 20, 23 at zero.
Tom Zawacki
So this explains things a little bit better because I think I just made a mistake. That many Americans make you associate nuclear.
Patrick Bet-David
What just happened was so perfect. It was so perfect.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah, yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
It's so perfect because that's, that's, that's how I went to.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
This is not my specialty. This is not what I know about. But I do know when you're sitting there as a company, you're like, hey, how much do we have to pay with hosting for this? How much do we have to. So imagine now add that to Google. Add that to Google on how many videos and all you need energy. You need. Think about crypto. Crypto. Bitcoin is ran on what energy? The energy that you need. The clearest, cleanest energy. By the way, look at this. The cleanest energy is who? Nuclear.
Tom Zawacki
Nuclear. Interesting.
Patrick Bet-David
Then it's geothermal, then it's natural gas, then it's hydropower, then it's coal, then it's wind, then it's solar.
Tom Zawacki
Wow.
Patrick Bet-David
But we've been afraid to go there because people still are uncomfortable with the word nuclear.
Chris
Tom, you look like something else. Can we go back to that chart that was just that we just talked about by year?
Patrick Bet-David
This one?
Chris
Yes. What year was the Arab oil embargo? 1979.
Tom Zawacki
Right. Yeah.
Chris
Reagan was elected in 80, reelected in 84, Bush in 88. And they made alternative energy a priority after the Arab oil embargo in 1979. And take a look at that. So when there was a crisis, America did turn to nuclear as a. As an alternative power source. And now we're coming on another crisis. And I think the crisis is. Is bigger. I think it's data security, and I think it's having data centers in the US where we have enough power and bringing all of that home.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. So this is very, very important long term. And what Tom showed that what China is doing versus the rest of the world, it's concerning. I'm glad Doug Burgum is in there to help out with this because it's very important for everyone else. All right, let me get to the next story here. Next story I want to go to is who is John. Who is John Bryan? Very interesting. What James o' Keefe just dropped, I think, yesterday, if I'm not mistaken. John Bryan, Royal Family Aid, which they call him the Fixer. I don't know why they call him the Fixer, but they call him the Royal Family Fixer. He would fix a lot of different things for them. Allegedly claims Prince Andrew had sex with minors. Okay. And when you. Let me read the story here. Three, four. Okay, so Prince Andrew is under fresh scrutiny after his former advisor, John Bryan was secretly filmed claiming that the Duke of York had sex with underage girls. Connected to Epstein. The video released by General James o' Keefe shows Brian saying Prince Andrew lied to him about his ties to Epstein and his actions. The video comes just a few days after Virginia Gifrey, who accused Epstein and Prince Andrew of abuse, was found dead on April 25. Her death was reported on suicide. As a suicide. But her father, Sky Roberts has publicly disputed this, saying there's no way that she did. Somebody got through. John Bryan, an American businessman, became widely known in 1990s for his close relationship with Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York. He had close ties to Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Diana, was part of the royal family's inner circle. Rob, go and play this clip.
Chris
Do you want the entire.
Patrick Bet-David
Go to the, Go to the main parts. Right?
Chris
I have that isolated.
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, go for it. Other girls.
Vinnie Fisher
I was so pissed about that.
Chris
I was really pissed.
Tom Zawacki
I was really pissed because he lied.
Vinnie Fisher
To me about.
Patrick Bet-David
Epstein.
Vinnie Fisher
Yeah, no, I knew he saw him.
Tom Zawacki
He lied to me that he was.
Adam Sosnick
Such a close friend. I was.
Patrick Bet-David
No.
Vinnie Fisher
And then I did a big thing in the Daily Mail saying that I believed Andrew.
Tom Zawacki
And then I found out he was lying.
Patrick Bet-David
I was.
Adam Sosnick
Girl Z.
Patrick Bet-David
That's not cool. Wow. Do you have another clip or is that the main one?
Chris
That's the main clip from the entire segment.
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, Vinnie, thoughts?
Adam Sosnick
Well, first of all, I mean it's no secret. We are, I mean everybody knew about the, the, what he was doing with Virginia Goofy, which I'm gonna, which I'm gonna bring up here. But it just look at all the timing. Okay, so James o' Keefe, which I, I, we're talking about him before the podcast. I think he's one of the, one of the most important, hard working. All the freaking videos, all the project veritas videos of him catching people saying all this stuff on camera. And some people step downtown, but nobody goes to jail. Especially a lot of the stuff was happening under Biden. But he's been around since the ACORN thing that he did with Andrew Breitbart. But it's weird because he teases that he's going dark and he's going to bring up a bunch of this stuff apparently is going to be coming out. And then yesterday Pam Bondi comes out and she confirms that the FBI has tens of thousands of of Epstein videos with kids doing God knows what. Is this the clip right here? Robbie, could we play this one?
Chris
No, no. The FBI. Yeah, the FBI. They're reviewing. There are tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn. And there are hundreds of of victims and no one victim will ever get released. It's just the volume. And that's what they're going through right now. The FBI is diligently going through that. I haven't seen that statement, but I'll call him later and find out.
Adam Sosnick
Okay, so diligently going through, guys, tens of. So that means, Adam, they have on camera, which we've know that they've had them. So I mind you, that means the Biden administration hidden apparently 14 terabytes of child torture and whatever the hell that they're going through. That means they knew about it. Okay? They knew about it. They covered up. They didn't say anything. So you mean to tell me that they have all this footage? They see these children. Okay, I don't want to. I don't want to expose the victims. But you see these people that have been doing this stuff, and what, they're still walking around. If you have probable calls, Tom, if a cop smells marijuana in your car, they get to come in and they get to grab your ass, and that's it. That's probable cause. You have footage that you guys have been monitoring and going through. That's tens of thousands of hours with actual child rapists, and those people are still walking around. How do you not know that they're doing it, Tom? And I believe that nothing is going to happen. And then o' Keefe drops his video. He does this. And isn't this random? How random is this? We find out about the Prince Andrew and his. His fixer talking all this crap, and then Virginia Goofy, the. The biggest victim that came out, the public victim, she suicides herself. Do you guys. Am I the only one that's seeing this. This weird pattern of all this stuff? And by the way, I don't see any of it. Nothing is going to happen because she was. Pam Bondi was the Attorney General in Florida while Epstein was doing all this stuff. Or she had the power and the position to go after him back then, but she didn't. So we're just going to keep getting. They're going to keep dangling this, this. Oh, we're looking. We're going to get him. Four years is going to go by, Pat. On my opinion, nothing is going to happen. And she's talking about these victims that she doesn't want to expose. None of them are going to get justice, Tom. None of them. That's the truth. And Pat, this is. I have to give him a shout out. He made what he's doing what James o' Keefe is doing, guys, and he doesn't make mainstream news. He's not. His stuff is all on X. But what he says here about what he's doing and if the price isn't your life, then you're for sale. And I think all those people are for sale. Can we play this clip?

Cash Patel
Is it 10 million? Is it 20 million?
Patrick Bet-David
Is it 100 million?
Cash Patel
What is your price? Because if your price is not your life, then you are for sale. If your price is not your life, then you are for sale. So if you're going to be a.
Chris
Truth teller, your price has to be your life.
Cash Patel
I can't surround myself with people whose price is not their life. Because the enemy, whatever the enemy is, whether it be physical, legal, spiritual, will attack the vulnerability of the person who can be compromised. So you get real spiritual real fast if you're going to do this type.
Adam Sosnick
Of work and he's out there. And by the way, that, that's the first video that he has. He has multiple videos of people exposing this stuff that, that are these freaking demons. And I, I, the only, the only person that's going to hold him accountable is God. Because we're not going to do it here.
Patrick Bet-David
Adam.
Tom Zawacki
Well, shout out to James o' Keefe. You know, we meet a lot of people doing what we do here. And I would say that since the day one where we had him on, when he had his book that he just came out with, it was a muckraker. I said, oh, I like this guy. And we kept in touch and we hang out. He's a good buddy, but I know he's not necessarily doing Project Veritas. Right now he's doing.
Patrick Bet-David
Although this was a collaboration.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah, we're gonna figure out what that means. But shout out to o' Keefe. This is a guy who, I mean literally probably has to sleep with one eye open for what he does every on a daily basis, but man, he does good work. Now this guy, John Bryan, his job is being a fixer. Now I'm thinking, where have I heard this term fixer before? Yeah, you've heard it. You ever see the movie Pulp Fiction when the guy tell Harvey Keitel shows up he's Winston Wolf and he goes, what are you doing here? Oh me? Don't worry about that. Do what I got to say. What do I do? I solve problems. And that's what he does. So when, when you hear the word fixer, think of the following things. They're problem solvers. They're also spin doctors. They also are sort of cleanup experts. If you saw Pulp Fiction, they had to clean up that mess in the car, if you know what I'm saying. Crisis management, damage control, discrete solutions, PR strategists and reputation managers. What he does, who utilizes people like this? Well, obviously royalty, politicians, high net worth individuals, CEOs, athletes, celebrities. And why do they use these people? Because they made an oopsie and they got to clean it up.
Adam Sosnick
But what.
Tom Zawacki
So we've seen Michael Clayton, I think that was Clooney. We've seen Ray Donovan, Liv Shriver. We've seen in real life, who was a fixer. Who was Trump's fixer back in the day? A guy named Michael Cohen. And then we saw where that relationship went. Right?
Patrick Bet-David
Both of them.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah, you're right. So bottom line here, I agree with Vinnie. Prince Andrew was up to no good and he hired this fixer to clean up his mess. And now the, the fixer got caught on camera.
Adam Sosnick
But isn't it, it's, it's insane to me that and Tom, I know, I know you got to say something. It's besides him saying, besides the fixing all the stuff that we already knew. Imagine how powerful these freaking pedophiles are that it's getting slow walked. And we're going to promise you and it's going to come. Cash Patel right now was just in front of who's the Kennedy? The older, the older cosmic. He's like, yeah, we're just John Kennedy. Yeah, we're taking our time. And it, it seems to me like the most powerful people to where even the President cannot just release it. They can't release it. They're in. They're in the most powerful positions in our government and in the world because Prince Andrew, this guy, Pat. So mind you, she said Virginia, Virginia Griffey said that he. He slept with her multiple times, and then that there was multiple girls in there where he was going back to back to back to back. And this guy's admitting on camera, which he doesn't know, that he's on camera. He's like, oh, he was sleeping with multiple underage girls. And what's going to happen to Prince Andrew? That's an indictment. He's saying he's giving you proof. This guy's not lying. He doesn't even know he's on camera. I just think it's absolutely ridiculous.
Patrick Bet-David
What is this part with Senator Kennedy?
Adam Sosnick
Is this today, Rob?
Chris
Yes, this was posted 15 minutes ago on Twitter.
Adam Sosnick
Play this.
Patrick Bet-David
Did Jeffrey Epstein hang himself or did somebody kill him?
Cash Patel
Oh, Senator, I believe he hung himself in a cell in the Metropolitan Detention Center.
Tom Zawacki
Really? Are you going to release all the.
Patrick Bet-David
Information about that, Senator?
Cash Patel
We are working through that right now at the Department of Justice.
Patrick Bet-David
When you think you'll have it done, Cash?
Cash Patel
I think in the. In the near future, sir.
Adam Sosnick
Not near future. What, a fight before I die, Senator.
Cash Patel
We are, we are. We've been working on that. And we're doing it in a way that protects victims and also doesn't put out into the ether information that is irrelevant for production of the public, such as.
Adam Sosnick
Hold on, hold on, hold on. He's the same guy that said on day one, I was going to shut down the J. Edgar Hoover building and do all this nonsense. And now it's saying in the near future. I don't believe. I don't believe it. Well, because.
Tom Zawacki
Let me tell you something.
Adam Sosnick
Don't make promises then, because I. Adam, because it's for a fact. Leave the victims out. I don't want to hear one victim's name. If you're looking at footage with your eyes of grown men raping young underage women, arrest them. Go get them. How do you know that they're not still doing it right now? Because, by the way, Epstein's island was closed. Tom, Those guys, pedophiles. That urge doesn't take a vacation. They're still out there doing it, okay? They're making more victims while they're gonna. In the near future, we're gonna slow walk it. That's horseshit.
Tom Zawacki
Can I tell you what happened? Listen, as I always say.
Patrick Bet-David
Wait, wait. Give me a second.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
Rob, do you have that clip?
Chris
Yes.
Patrick Bet-David
You have it right There, by the way, you have it right here. Yeah, I think that's the one. Can you play that?
Cash Patel
Classification office, whatever you want to call it, transparency, truth, whatever, I don't care. Sits in the White House, reports directly to you and you take incoming from the United States of America. I want JFK. I want the 911 files. I want this, I want that. All the FBI, and this is a tool. This is something we didn't cover. What the Deep State uses the most to cover up their corruption is an illegal application of the classification system. Remember the lovebirds? Text from this is a beauty.
Patrick Bet-David
The lovebirds.
Cash Patel
Text from FBI. Is this Strock and Paige were texting?
Chris
Yes, I. I believe he says it somewhere in this clip. It's just a 2 minute and 21 seconds each other.
Cash Patel
Who? They were running the Russia Gate investigation against Trump. They were the head of the counterintelligence unit at the FBI and they're having an extramarital affair together. Can't make this stuff up. They're sending each other texts about how much they hate Trump and are going to create an insurance policy to stop Trump. Then we finally find those. But it gets even better. Here's the Deep State, full circle. Just last week, fast forward iPhones. And the DOJ just rewarded them.
Patrick Bet-David
Fast forward.
Cash Patel
Deputy Director of National Intelligence. And the world has now seen them and they can read them. And that's the best form of transparency. That's why I want this 24. 7 declassification office. Don't have me regurgitated to you read it. Get the documents, get the files, get the memos. But the Deep State came full circle and gave these guys a payday for rigging a presidential election and breaking the law.
Patrick Bet-David
No, this isn't it, Rob. There's one that he says on day.
Adam Sosnick
One, Day one, I'm gonna shut down the Hoover Building, right, and turn it into a museum.
Patrick Bet-David
See if this is the one, the one that you have in text. See if that's the one or it's the same exact one as the other one. Is that the same example?
Chris
I think that's the same one.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. But there was a.
Adam Sosnick
And which one was it? He's going to shut down the Hoover Building back. Yeah, I remember that. And all of them, all of them gave us these promises and it's not being kept. And it drives me freaking bananas.
Patrick Bet-David
Well, Adam, what are we going to say? And he's going to look forward.
Tom Zawacki
Well, look, you know, as always say you have to campaign in poetry and govern in prose. Now, what does that actually mean in this regard, when you're vying for a job, whether it's President, United States, whether it's the head of the FBI, whether that's any sort of political task that you're looking to do, you're gonna say things that are gonna trigger people's emotions. You're gonna rile people up. You're gonna, you know, sell them the dream. You're gonna maybe even sell them the nightmare. You're gonna make promises that maybe you can't keep sometimes. Cause sometimes when you actually get the job, you actually have to govern or you actually have to go through the practical execution of the job, or you actually. Reality slaps you in the face. So in my opinion, I know nothing about what's going on here. Cash has all these things. When I get there, we're going to shut down the FBI, J. Edgar. This is what I'm gonna do. And then he gets the job, and he sits at the desk and they go, do you want to know what's really going on, buddy? Because you've never sat in this seat. And he has his people that he trusts, and he goes, okay, yeah, well, here's what's going on. And he's gonna say.
Chris
This is a montage of him saying.
Patrick Bet-David
They won't play this.
Tom Zawacki
And he's gonna say this. Can I finish this? He's gonna say, holy crap, I had no idea that was what's going on. Turns out maybe I shouldn't say what I thought I was going to say.
Adam Sosnick
If you're price and you're for sale. Because guess what? I don't give a at them when it comes to kids and rape and.
Tom Zawacki
No, no, I'm just saying. That's easy for you to say.
Adam Sosnick
No, it's not easy, because I'm not talking about it.
Tom Zawacki
The wizard of Oz. When you go behind that curtain and you're like, damn, I don't care if someone says, no. Hold on.
Patrick Bet-David
If you say the clip.
Adam Sosnick
Yeah, no, I don't want to play the kids. I don't play that shit.
Tom Zawacki
Well, this is more than just kids.
Patrick Bet-David
Play the clip.
Cash Patel
Well, they have to be black book, like on day one. On day one, roll out the black book.
Chris
So will you work with me on this issue? So we know who worked with Jeffrey Epstein in building these sex trafficking rings.
Cash Patel
Absolutely, Senators. Child sex trafficking has no place in the United States of America. And I will do everything, if confirmed as FBI Director to make sure the American public knows the full weight of what happened in the past.
Patrick Bet-David
Can you do me a favor and Go back to the interview with him and Kennedy. The other Kennedy. Yeah, go back. And the one you just played, Rob, right there. Play that one more time. And this is when? This is today?
Chris
I believe this was yesterday. It was just posted about 22 minutes ago.
Patrick Bet-David
Go for it. Did Jeffrey Epstein hang himself or did somebody kill him Saturday?
Cash Patel
I believe he hung himself in a cell in the Metropolitan Detention Center.
Tom Zawacki
Are you going to release all the.
Patrick Bet-David
Information about that, Senator?
Cash Patel
We are working through that right now with the Department of Justice.
Patrick Bet-David
When you think you'll have it done, Cash?
Cash Patel
I think in the, in the near future, sir. Like before I die, Senator. We are, we are. We've been working on that. And we're doing it in a way that protects victims and also doesn't put out into the ether information that is irrelevant.
Tom Zawacki
What does that mean?
Adam Sosnick
What is information that's irrelevant?
Tom Zawacki
That's the point. That's when you go behind the curtain.
Patrick Bet-David
You'Re like, oh, go to the blaze 1. Rap the blaze the other one that you have. Go to the Blaze one. And then this is, this is me leading into, into something else. If you can just play the Blaze one that the guys just sent Glenn Beck. Yeah, that one has Jeffrey Epstein's black book.
Cash Patel
Black book, FBI.
Patrick Bet-David
But who that is that, I mean.
Cash Patel
There'S, that's under direct control of the director of the FBI.
Adam Sosnick
That's him.
Cash Patel
Just like the manifesto from the Nashville school shooting of the Catholic school. We still haven't seen that. Right. It's not the Nashville police or PD saying, we don't want this out. The FBI air mailed into that operation and said, this is not getting out.
Tom Zawacki
What's the date of that, Rob?
Cash Patel
Because they do that, because they. This is another government gangster operation. All these local law enforcement Communities get funding.
Chris
November 11th. I'm sorry, November 30th, 2024.
Patrick Bet-David
If you don't.
Cash Patel
Before, he was not getting your million dollars for this and you're not getting your. And that's a lot of money to these local districts. That's how they play the game. That's why you don't have a black book.
Patrick Bet-David
But the black book is not just sitting. I mean, that's, that's, that's Hoover power times 10.
Cash Patel
And, and to me, that's a thing I think President Trump should run on. On day one, roll out the black book. And not just that, on day one, roll out. All of the text messaging communications we were told were deleted on day one. Play the rest of the video of the pipe bomber on day. You know, he need one of the reforms I talk about government gangsters is you need a central node to be continuing.
Adam Sosnick
It's been over three months, so nothing. Nothing has happened.
Tom Zawacki
I don't want to speculate. I want to ask Pat your opinion, because this is something you probably studied way more than me. November, we're rolling it out. Day one. This is what's happening now. He got confirmed, I believe in February is the. One of the closest confirmations ever. 51. 49. I think it was two Republican senators that were like, no. And finally got confirmed. What goes through someone like Cash's mind when they actually peel the curtain back and they go, oh, let me walk this back a little bit. What do you think?
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. So to me, it's only two reasons why they're not releasing this. Okay. It's really. It's only two. I don't see a third. Tom, you're a pretty technical guy. No, well, there's. Hang on, let me. Let me say my thoughts. So sorry. Yeah. There's only two reasons why this is happening. One is because somebody on the team is on the list that they have a lot of stuff on. Or number two, this is the way they're getting a lot of things done, because they can hold a lot of people hostage. And blackmail.
Tom Zawacki
Gotcha.
Patrick Bet-David
That's it. I can't add a third. What's the third? So if you look at Cash, he's so good with words, right? And this is the difference between politicians and statesmen. But I also understand that Trump understands power. And do you think Trump knows who's on that list?
Tom Zawacki
I think Trump knows more than Cash.
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, so Trump knows who's on that list. Do you think Trump has experience knowing what it is to hold people hostage? Blackmail New York coming up. You know, whether they did it to him or he did it to others or people that he knew. Do you think he has experience with that?
Tom Zawacki
Infinite experience.
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, perfect. So, I don't know. I think, to me, it's like, hey, let me tell you, we got some stuff on prime ministers, we got some stuff on presidents, we got some stuff on real powerful people around the world, some billionaires. Why give up that control? Why give up that asset? Let's use it to control it. Now, that's the mindset of somebody that runs the free world. You. You don't think like everybody else. If a lion could speak, you could not understand it, Right? Then there is everybody else who, to you, the value is what? Listen, they did this to kids. I have zero tolerance for that. I fully understand that fully get it. I want to know who's on that list. I want to know who's on that list. I want to know what happened with 9 11. I want to know what happened with the moon landing. I want to know what happened. I want to know. I want to know. I want to know. But. And let me show you another weird tweet that just came out. Who was the VP candidate for RF Kennedy Jr Shanahan. Did you hear what she said yesterday? Rob, can you pull up the tweet of what she just said yesterday?
Tom Zawacki
Yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
Very weird, folks.
Adam Sosnick
Oh, really?
Patrick Bet-David
You haven't seen it?
Tom Zawacki
Yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
Rob, pull up this clip here. Do you know which one it is?
Chris
Yep, I have it right here.
Patrick Bet-David
So watch this. This is such a weird tweet. This is Nicole Shannon. Can you verify that it's her account? Go on her account. Okay. How many followers? That's her account. Yes, I checked. Okay, go back now. Let's read the tweet. Yes. It's very strange. Doesn't make any sense. I was promised that If I supported RFK Jr and send a confirmation that neither of these siblings would be working under HHS or in an appointment and that people much more qualified would be. I don't know if RFK very clearly lied to me or what is going on. It has been clear in recent conversation that he is reporting to someone regularly who is controlling his decisions. And it isn't President Trump. With regards to the siblings, there is something very artificial and aggressive about them, almost like they were bred and raised Manchurian assets.
Adam Sosnick
What?
Patrick Bet-David
Nicole Shanahan.
Adam Sosnick
And what is she talking about?
Patrick Bet-David
The new person that got the job. So click that. So Dr. Jack Cruz tried to tell us Mary Talley Bowen was on a podcast, too. She knows the deal with means. Let's see how this pans out. I can't help but think this is a very carefully groomed and selected person. Just about no clinical experience, talks a great game and everything, but vaccines. Feels all wrong. Why there are so many better choices. Click on that. And this is the appointment of Dr. Casey to be the next Surgeon General, which Laura Loomer posts. Something about the fact that she. She doesn't even have her license. Active as of last November of 2020. January of 2024, I believe. And she said something to the effect.
Tom Zawacki
Of disappointed in Team Trump. Something to that effect. Because for Laura Loomer to say that.
Adam Sosnick
Well, he was supposed to go, you.
Tom Zawacki
Know, they feel some type of way.
Adam Sosnick
Yet there was another nominee. It was a female. Correct. And then they did this last minute he didn't pick the girl that he was supposed to get.
Patrick Bet-David
Now, Casey means real first name. Paula only recently started going by her name Casey. She moved to Oregon, complete her residency, but decided to drop out on her final year. Now she doesn't even have an active medical license. Trump appoints her as U.S. surgeon General today. Something just isn't adding up. Why would you go by a different name your whole life and then randomly decide to start going by Casey once you become a social media influencer? Dr. Paulo means I don't know. I don't know.
Tom Zawacki
So and then who's her sibling? She said nominated these siblings. Didn't she say that in the first sentence?
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. If you type what is the relation?
Tom Zawacki
Her brother is Cali means an entrepreneur and health policy advocate. Was he work for who is 40 years old.
Adam Sosnick
Does he work for any pharma, pharmaceutical companies or anything like that?
Tom Zawacki
Together the mean siblings co authored the 2024 book Good Energy the Surprising Connection between Metabolism and Limitless Health which critiques the U.S. health care system and emphasizes the role of metabolic health in preventing chronic diseases. Okay. They've been influential figures in the Maha movement, advising Health and Human Services Secretary RFK on health policy. Their advocacy focuses on promoting whole food diets, reducing processed food consumption and addressing lifestyle factors contributing to chronic illness. Okay. I would wonder why this was RFK's running mate. I think she donated how much money to the campaign? 20 million, if not more. Does anybody have more insight on what RFK is doing than his running mate? And for her to basically look at this decision and say what is going on here?
Adam Sosnick
Manchurian Candidate.
Tom Zawacki
That's a strong, very strong allegation.
Patrick Bet-David
Define what a Manchurian Candidate. I just watched it a month and a half ago with the kids.
Adam Sosnick
It's when they use like that MK oh ultra brainwashing stuff to have people under their control. They could hire you to be an assassin and the assassin could do the the hit and then come out of it and not know anything that they did with any recollection or any knowledge of it. It's that brainwashing stuff that we watch even that movie in the movie. Actually they did do a movie about it but Chaos where the CIA uses you know, drugs and all mind altering stuff with psychiatrists to make you lose your freaking mind and lose all self control and you'll you become a freaking a hitman for them.
Chris
That's one type. The other type is you simply bring create a candidate who is going to work against the state, the country for which you get elected and behind the scenes that person is a very bad person. But out in front they're groomed for it without brainwashing. So you're right. There's two couple ways create a Manchurian candidate. One is basically a spy that you groom all the way up so that they could get elected somewhere. And then they're working on things that not in the favor of the country or the city that they're elected to.
Adam Sosnick
Yep.
Tom Zawacki
It's important to point out we don't know anything about them. This is not our, we're, we're commenting on what other people have said.
Adam Sosnick
Oh yeah. And then never really heard Trump first pick.
Chris
Dr. Nicole Sanahan used the term and.
Adam Sosnick
Yeah, Rob, you ready for this? So Trump's first pick was Dr. Jeanette Neshawat, but after questions came up about her medical credentials and her past support for Covid vaccines, he pulled her nomination and went with Casey Means.
Patrick Bet-David
Rob, this is the announcement the President's making.
Chris
Yes, he just went live about a minute ago.
Tom Zawacki
Here, I can pull it up.
Patrick Bet-David
Go for it.
Vinnie Fisher
Products produced by our great farmers. And our secretary, as you know, of Agriculture is here. Brooke, thank you very much.
Patrick Bet-David
Thank you, sir.
Vinnie Fisher
You'll let the farmers know. In addition, the UK will reduce or eliminate numerous non tariff barriers that unfairly discriminated against against American products. But this is now turning out, I think really to be a great deal for both countries because it'll be really great for the UK also. So they're opening up the country. Their country is a little closed and we appreciate that. They'll also be fast tracking American goods through their customs process or exports. United Kingdom to a very, very quick form of approval and, and there won't be any red tape. Things are going to move very quickly both ways. The final details are being written up in the coming weeks. We'll have it all very conclusive, but the actual deal is a very conclusive one. We think just about everything has been approved. So good for both countries. And we'll also receive new market access for American chemicals, machinery and many other industrial products that weren't allowed. And they'll end up getting products that they'll be able to price and if they like them better and we make great products, they'll be buying those products, but they were not available in the U.K. furthermore, in a historic step, the deal includes plans that will bring the United Kingdom into the economic security alignment with the United States. That's the first of its kind. So we have a big economic security blanket and that's very Important and we feel very, very comfortable with that because it's been a great ally, truly one of our great allies. I mean a lot of people say our greatest ally. I don't want to insult people by saying that, but I can say it's certainly one of our greatest and right at the top. And they're the first one we're talking about. And by the way, we have many meetings planned today and tomorrow and every country wants to be making deals and we have a meeting. As you know, Scott will be going over to Switzerland on Saturday. That will be very, very interesting. We'll find out. But I think they want to make a deal very badly too. Both countries have agreed that the economic security is national security. And we'll be working together as allies to ensure that we have a strong industrial base, appropriate export controls and protections for key technologies and industries like steel. Steel is a big factor. Both countries will become stronger with steel and things necessary for military. You know, we used to build ships and other things literally at a level that nobody's ever seen and we haven't. We've eased up and I would say that the UK certainly eased up but now we're going to be uneasing both and we work together once again. I want to thank Prime Minister Starm. He's been terrific for his partnership in this matter. Matter the special relationship and external bond. It's really an external and an internal bond between our two countries will soon be stronger than ever before and we really do. We have a great relationship. I want to just say that the representatives of UK have been so professional and it's been an honor doing business with all of them and in particular the Prime Minister. I'd like to.
Patrick Bet-David
So I just looked up right now what the levies are. Okay. So the key highlights tariff reductions. The agreement aims to lower tariffs that were previously imposed by us including a 10% levy on British imports and a 25% tariff on steel, aluminum and automobiles. These reductions are expected to benefit key UK industries, particularly automotive and manufacturing sectors. Digital Service Tax UK has agreed to review its 2% digital service tax which affects major US tech companies. This move is seen as a step towards easing tensions over digital trade and for fostering better relations in tech sector. And then the UKMS is maintained food safety safety standards opting not to lower regulations to allow imports of products like chlorinated chicken and hormone treated beef from US Interesting. So they've not done anything with that and I don't know how to market as reactive time. I'm assuming you've looked at the market, what is it showing? Let's see what the market is saying.
Tom Zawacki
No big spike but we're market's all green today.
Chris
It's all green but we're not a giant spike. But so therefore the market is either likes it or let's put it this way, the market doesn't dislike it because the market didn't drop and it's. And everything's up green.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah, Every indicator I'm looking at the Dow, the S P, NASDAQ, NYSE, the Russell 2000, Bitcoins Up, Ethereum, the VIX is pretty flat.
Patrick Bet-David
How big of an announcement is this, Tom?
Chris
I think so. By itself, dollar value, it's not as big as say India would be. But it's a big announcement to say I got a deal done and now we're going to paper it and that there's enough in there that they're speaking about. Also you heard in there between the lines, he said and we're going to take down some blocks on industries so that US products can be sold over there and they can price it and if the people of the UK like it, then, you know, folks in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland can buy stuff. So I would say on a 1 to 10 impact, this is about a 7 or 8. But on influence, this is an 11.
Patrick Bet-David
Why?
Chris
Because it's a done deal. It's a trade deal that's done. It says that the team has got it and it's going to influence the completion of other trade deals and it's good news. And I think the market kind of expected it. Market didn't drop on it, the market didn't spike. So the market likes what it heard and I think when you look at all these things, it is, look, we're flirting with 5700 and we're above where we were on April 1st. So now we're at the next tier. The next tier is to get, is to get back to 6,000 in the market and we're really close. So I think this is really good. This is a, this is the influence of this announcement is really big. Look, if we got the deal done with the uk, let's get the deal done with you.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, okay.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah, I think this is a top 10, top 15 deal to be done. This isn't a top three, top five. I mean they're an ally, they're a strategic partner. But it's not like we just did a deal with China or even Canada for that matter. But it's a win, it's a win. It's another notch on his belt.
Adam Sosnick
It's starting, but now we're taking off.
Chris
The tariffs we put in place.
Adam Sosnick
Yeah, it's.
Tom Zawacki
It's a win for Trump and kudos to you for getting this done.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, well, what are your thoughts?
Tom Zawacki
Pbd.
Patrick Bet-David
I mean, you know, it's good, but like I said, it's not a top.
Tom Zawacki
You're not impressed?
Patrick Bet-David
No, I think it's good. You need stories, which is great. They need stories, but it was a major announcement. No, it's not something that, you know, UK is not. There's nothing with UK that we're like, oh, my God, we really need UK for this. And we really didn't know. I think Mexico, Canada, China, India, you know, those are probably in the top five. Top seven, whatever. But I would say top five. I don't know. I don't know. Tom, you seem like you want to say something.
Chris
My closing point is let's take a look at the market for the last week. The market's been damn stable the last week and just sitting there like 56, 25,000, 630, nice and stable. Look at it for the last week. By the way, I'm quoting the S and P and pms.

You can't take a seven second break. Go to the clip I sent you. No, the point I'm making that I sent you about Canada. Upset about the fact that they. They're upset that tariffs won't be passed on consumers. Where. What's her name? She does a phenomenal job explaining this on cnn. It's almost as if they're upset that the market is back up where it was before. Do you see the clips on the notes?
Chris
Completely.
Patrick Bet-David
If you don't have.
Chris
Yeah.
Tom Zawacki
Is it the bot? Yeah.
Patrick Bet-David
Yes, that's the bot. I have it.
Tom Zawacki
She's crushing it.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. If you can play this clip. This is so interesting, guys. Watch this here. CNN is upset that the market is recovering and all of a sudden they're becoming supportive of big corporate America and the guy has to change. Change himself. No, no, no, I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. But, but go ahead. They got caught again. Go. Go for it.
Chris
Rob S&P 500, the Dow Jones all up today. They've recovered everything that they lost since Liberation Day. Things are actually going really, really well. This whole thing about gm, the CEO saying that they're going to be. There's going to be a $5 billion.
Patrick Bet-David
Cost to the tariffs.
Chris
But she also said something, she said this will not be passed on to the consumer. So where is it going to come from, you might wonder? Well, they brought down their projects and not projections. She said none of it will be passed on to the consumer. That this will come out of the profits. They projected 14 billion profits. They're taking that product projection down to 10 billion.
Patrick Bet-David
This is what we want. Okay, but wait, wait, wait. This is what we want.
Chris
We want tariffs.
Patrick Bet-David
So you want manufacturing.
Chris
We want the billionaire billionaires to pay.
Patrick Bet-David
Their fair share and we want the.
Chris
Cost not to be passed on to the consumers. And that's what we're seeing.
Patrick Bet-David
Let me.
Chris
Such a great example.
Tom Zawacki
Hold on.
Patrick Bet-David
Let me, let me just, let me just try to understand this. So GM's profits will decrease probably significantly.
Chris
As a result of this.
Patrick Bet-David
Let's take that.
Chris
I'm telling you what they say.
Patrick Bet-David
I know, I'm there, but I'm just saying, okay, let's zero to Republican. And what do you think is going to happen when GM's profits suddenly drop? What will happen to GM and the people that work there?
Chris
The CEO herself, Mary Barra, thanked President Trump for this because she is a patriot and she understands that the situation we're in with China is not.
Patrick Bet-David
Shareholders would like to have a word out.
Chris
Our future to China. Somebody had to do something about.
Tom Zawacki
The corporation is going to take less money.
Patrick Bet-David
They're going to eat the profits out.
Chris
Of a sense of patriots. Your Democrats suddenly being so, you know, pro corporation and pro world.
Tom Zawacki
No, no, no.
Patrick Bet-David
I'm not being pro corporation. I'm actually pro people because what's bad for the corporation is going to be bad for the worker.
Tom Zawacki
Now look, I couldn't care less about.
Patrick Bet-David
Listen, listen, I'll be honest with you.
Tom Zawacki
I'll be honest with you.
Patrick Bet-David
I couldn't care less about any of the corporations.
Chris
Corporations are people, my friend.
Patrick Bet-David
You're working for a corporation except the.
Chris
One on your paycheck. Dude. It is, it is.
Adam Sosnick
But look, this show is so any.
Patrick Bet-David
Of the corporations that were just listed. You can pause it right there. But what's great about this, the fact that, you know, you keep talking, talking, talking, talking, talking, boom. You find a contradiction and I have to backtrack and go back to saying, well that was kind of a good idea. But no, no, no, no, I'm going to now support the big corporations when I see something like this. So Tom, you were saying. I think what she was saying. So what are your thoughts when you see her comments there?
Chris
Well, I think CNN should become dnn, the disingenuous news network, because I think that's completely disingenuous. She exposed herself, she took all the credibility out of herself, the, you know, as a host with her statements. And I'm not picking on her personally. What she said was completely disingenuous. Oh, and now you care about the corporations? Well, let me tell you something madam. There are union contracts that control wages for the workers. So the people that are hurt are in fact the shareholders. They're the ones that will be hurt. Because without the profits there, Jim's it. But guess what? This is going to be a short term thing because it's up to Mary Barra did not say, I'm making my quarterly announcement and I have 14 versus, excuse me, 10 versus 14 billion. That's not what she said. She said potentially, but we're not raising the prices to the consumer. Because you know why she had to do it. You know why Mary Barra had to do that? Because of a guy named Jim Farley. The CEO of Ford, who's in a better position than GM is on helping more people in America work in America. Cuz Ford makes more in America than gm. So capitalism works because a guy named Farley doing the right thing at Ford just forced Mary Barra to move on the chessboard and say I'm not raising prices to the American consumer. And guess who wins? The American consumer wins. And guess what? This whole program that we're trying to get leveling and more fairness around the world, that wins and then who loses? CNN looking for bad news headlines, trying to find a way to pick on Trump trying to find a way to do it and basically stepping over their own feet here. That's what I think. Welcome dnn, the disingenuous news network.
Tom Zawacki
I just want to give a quick shout out to Bhatia. She was on the show, I want to say, two years ago. Pbd.
Patrick Bet-David
Yep.
Tom Zawacki
Bhatia Ungar Sargon. I've seen her with you on Piers Morgan.
Chris
I'm not talking about her.
Tom Zawacki
I'm talking about the others on fire these days. Now, why is she on fire of all people? It's because she's a former classic liberal who basically saw what was happening going on and she used her brain and she used common sense to say what the hell is going on right here. So she's written a couple books. Bad news of how woke media is undermining Democracy. That was in 2021, I believe when she came on the show that was what she was talking about. But her latest book is how the Elites have Betrayed America's Working Men and Women. So she talks about what we've done in the manufacturing, how we basically gutted out her manufacturing and sold to China. She criticizes the woke progressive left just like she criticizes the corporate elites on the right. And something happens when you just use common sense and you don't, you're not tied to any political party. People are going to get very upset with you. And I hope she pisses off a lot more people because she's speaking common sense to insane people.
Patrick Bet-David
I don't think she's going to stop anytime soon. I think she's doing a great job. It's a lot of common sense and it's great to see that taking place. Okay, let's go to the next story here. Rob, if you can pull up Trump getting ready to announce to call the Persian Gulf Arabian Gulf and this has been leaked all over the place. He is getting ready to announce this it's upcoming Saudi Arabia visit that the US Will refer to the Persian Gulf as the Arabian Gulf of or Gulf of Arabia following his earlier renaming of Gulf of Mexico to Gulf America reported as associated president with US Officials, Trump teased a significant announcement. Rob, if this is it, Rob, go for it and play it.
Tom Zawacki
For you.
Patrick Bet-David
To make that announcement on your.
Vinnie Fisher
They're going to ask me about that when I get there and I'll have to make a decision.
Tom Zawacki
So you have made a decision.
Vinnie Fisher
I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings. I don't know if feelings are going to be hurt. I have a case right over here. It's called Gulf of America. And I guess a lot of people get ideas from us, but. But the Gulf of America was something I thought should have been named a long time ago. I'm going to be given a briefing on that. It was just done. Then I'll make a decision.
Patrick Bet-David
Isn't the US Position that Iran can have an enrichment program as long as it doesn't reach a weapons?
Vinnie Fisher
We haven't made that decision yet. We will, but we haven't made that decision yet, Mr. President.

China said the U.S. initiated the trade. So the Persian Gulf covered nearly 97,000 square miles and bordering Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE and Oman has been naming disputes since the 1960s with Arab nations pushing for Arabian Gulf over the historical Persian Gulf. Iran, with over a thousand miles of coastline, threatened illegal action against Google in 2012 for not labeling the Gulf and warned airlines in 2010 stating that calling it Arabian Gulf on in flight monitors will be barred from Iranian airspace. Rob, if you can play the clip of the Shah being asked this question by Mike Wallace back in, God knows, 1972 or 76. It's on Twitter. If you just go to my account, you'll see it right there. I retweeted it. You'll see all the way at the top of it. I think it may even be the most recent tweet that I have that one right there. If you can play this. Zoom out. Yeah, there you go. As you know, I have been across the Gulf, the Gulf that you call Persian and they call Arabian.
Tom Zawacki
Why do you call it Gulf?
Patrick Bet-David
You have been to school, haven't you? Yes.
Tom Zawacki
What, what was the name that you.
Patrick Bet-David
Have read during your school days? Persian Gulf. All right, but they do call it Arabian.
Tom Zawacki
Well, they can do many things and.
Patrick Bet-David
They, as you know, you see his boys, how it is. You see how he's handling himself? Do you see how classy it was? Do you see how amazing it was? Let me tell you how awesome Iran was at one point. This is Iranian kids right now. Rob, if you can play this clip. This is Iranian kids right now in Iran singing. And look what they say about Hezbollah then. Look how Iranians used to sing kids when the Shah was the leader. You tell me if you notice the difference between what it is now versus what it was pre1979 Islamic revolution. Go ahead, Rob. Evil America, listen careful. This is the cod for our operation. These are words from our promised Allah. All of you infidels, Americans, we, the Hezbollah, will defeat you. Prosper, Iran forever. Shine, be free, O Iran. Through every time from your children brave and noble Be ever joyful or Iranic anew.
Adam Sosnick
What a. What a difference of brainwashing leadership. Holy Sorry. Oh my goodness. What a change.
Patrick Bet-David
Let me tell you, when you, when you get, wow. Leaders of the Khamenes, the Khomeinis, all of those guys that have been running Iran since 78 and turned the Middle east into as chaotic of an environment as it's ever been. Pre 79, this was not happening. When the Shah was in charge, he didn't fully trust Israel Shah never did. But they had a good relationship together. They made it work. He didn't trust a lot of different people, but there was a relationship there. He has a way of talking to people and working with them. Even the IRGC founder said that. We kept talking about how many people the Shah killed. The number wasn't that big. The number was in the 1500s to 3000. And their claims they made constantly, over and over and over and over again. One number is too many. But they made him seem like the biggest dictator of all time. And he was never that. He brought freedom to women. You know, girls were being married at 8 years old, 10 years old. He says that's not. That doesn't make any sense. 13, 15, even higher ages women could go to school. My mother got her four year degree in finance from the University of Tehran. My mother in Iran got her four year degree from University of Tehran many, many years ago. And so, you know, you. And she was somebody that was a supporter of. She fell for the trap and a lot of people did that. The Shah and the people were all about the rich and all this stuff. And they were. Khomeini's going to come, he's going to give us free rides, free cars, free phones, free this, free that. And then what happens? The rest is destroyed. So the question becomes, is Trump doing this trolling? Why is he doing it? I have some thoughts, but Adam, I want to come.
Tom Zawacki
So, I mean, one of the best things I've learned since being next to you for the last five years is understanding the nature of the Persian people and Iran. Because, you know, the revolution was in 79, I was born in 80. And I never knew an Iran that wasn't this Islamic theocratic, thug, murderous regime. Seeing the videos that you show when the Shah Reza Pahlavi was in charge, it's like a different world. You see videos of women and beautiful women and dresses and dancing. It was like, you know how they say that like Lebanon is sort of like the, the modern Paris of The Middle east, which is no longer the Paris of The Middle East, 50 years ago was Iran. And compare that to what's going on today. So, you know, in America today, we talk about, listen, these schools, this woke these progressives. They're not. They're long, no longer educating. They're indoctrinating. So picture this. That's what's going on in America when we have freedom, civil liberties, okay? This indoctrination that's going on. Imagine being in Iran when you have no say, you can't say back to the government, you can't push back. The indoctrination of these kids is insane. So you start to see this, all right? They're singing about what group were they singing about? Hezbollah, were they not? So Hezbollah, the Houthis, Hamas, they're all funded by the Islamic terror group in Iran. So don't tell me that everyone in Gaza is just an innocent victim of this war that's happening right now. Because all these kids have unfortunately, unfortunately, been indoctrinated by Hamas for the last 20 years. And that is a small example of what they do.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah, I mean, look, you know, what is the President doing? Do I want to see the Persian Gulf be renamed to something else? Of course not. The history of the Persian Gulf being named the Persian Gulf for 2500 years, and if you look at the history of who called it that, what names they had, what different places that, the history of it is well documented. Everybody sees it. But what is the President doing? He is using this as a method of negotiation to get under the skin of Iran. That's what he's doing. And he's sitting there saying, who's going to do a better deal with me? If Saudi is going to put 1.3 trillion 600 billion, you're going to do all that stuff to America and Iran's going to look and, you know, treat us the way they are. Guess what, Iran, I'm going to get under your skin. That's what he's doing. And I understand his methodology of what he's doing. I truly do. I get what he's doing. This would have never, ever happened if the Shah was in Iran. Never, ever happened to all the people, as much as they criticize that man. This would have never, ever happened if the Shah was still leading that country and Iran had a democracy. Never happened because Iran would have had a good relationship with Israel. Iran would have had a good relationship with Saudi. Iran would have had a good relation with America. Iran would have had a good relation with a lot of different people. But no, you have somebody right now that's financing and selling everything Iran has to places like China. $400 billion deal that they signed for, what was it, 25 years. And so, yeah, we're going to do a nuclear deal, and they just have to promise that they're not going to build any nuclear weapons. You think you believe them? I already think they have it. I'm speculating, but I'm convinced Iran already has nuclear capabilities. My opinion. So it's not a fact. It's my opinion. I believe they already have it. You think they're going to tell you about it? If the Hamas can build the underground tunnels that they've been able to build for as many years as they did, and those guys are amateurs, what do you think Iran's capable of building underground? What do you think? What do you think? What do you think is down there? You want me to negotiate and say, yeah, make sure you guys don't build any nuclear. Stop it. Stop it. Anyways, Adam, you sound like you want to say something.
Tom Zawacki
I just. Two things. When someone tells you who they are, believe them. So when Iran is shouting, death to America, death to Israel, just believe them. Take them at their word. I believe that they actually want to see America fall to their knees. And they call America the Big Satan. They call Israel the little Satan. Now, I'm not even tying those two together. They want to see us dead. The. The. Not the people, the ayatollahs. But number two, what authority does Trump have to change the Gulf, The Persian Gulf? Like, what authority does he have? Meaning, okay, we can change the Gulf of America, Gulf of Mexico.
Patrick Bet-David
Does the president.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah. What if. Meaning that's not his side of the world. What authority does he have to do that?
Patrick Bet-David
It's called the biggest megaphone ever in the history of mankind. Ever. It's the biggest megaphone. And by the way, if he says the Arabian Gulf, guess how many people around that area would actually support that? If he says that and he goes being aggressive with it, Let me tell you, you know, there's a lot of people that will start calling that themselves. What did he say to associate a press? If you stop calling the Gulf of America, I'm going to stop funding you. Yeah. If you. The amount of power this man has with the way he negotiates and how calculating he is. No, this is a brilliant move to get under Iran's skin. And I think it's going to work in many creative ways, and I think a lot of people are going to support it as Much as for a guy that is from there, and I'm driven by history, I'm not supportive of this. I fully understand why he's doing it.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah, it's probably to get under their skin. It is meaning like it is not buying Greenland. He's not making Canada the 51st state. Who knows what's going on with the Panama Canal. He's doing this. He's poking the bear. And it's all leading to a negotiation.
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, Rob, I want to. I want to play this clip. I'm gonna. I'm gonna take a different angle. Okay. So I'm going to play this clip about marriage. I'm a psychologist who studies couples. Then I'm going to play a Paul Pierce clip. Okay, Robin, we're going to go to that. I'm glad you have it. I'm a psychologist who studies couples. This is not me. This is the article. The number one phrase that breaks up relationships. It's more damaging than you think. And here's what the psychologist claims it is. Studying couples identifies the phrase, why can't you be more like.
Vinnie Fisher
Your brother?
Patrick Bet-David
As highly damaging, noting that it conveys you're not enough and someone else, anyone else, could do a better job at being my partner leading to e reap irreparable insecurity issues. This death by comparison effect undermines relationship by making partners question their worth rather than loving feeling love for who they are. The phrase often stems from a deeper issue when partners fear openly expresses needs with research showing that uncertainty about the relationship or partnership response leads to suppressed frustration, such as saying, why can't you be more like Sarah's husband? He actually plans dates instead of I feel disconnected when we don't spend quality time together. The psychologist explains that the more secure and emotionally close a person feels in their relationship, the more likely they are to communicate directly. Tom, I'm only coming to you on this one. Then on the clip, I'm going to go to Vinnie and Adams. But for you, what are your thoughts on this psychologist and what she's saying?
Chris
I think it's absolutely correct. Whenever you. So anytime. I once read that anytime you bring a third person or a third entity into a marriage in such a way that it majorly interrupts things is a form of adultery. And for. For some people, it could be hobbies. The guy that all he does all the weekends is play golf with his buddies rather than spending time with his wife, it's a form of adultery. I know that you went insert something like that into your marriage. It's that and These words insert this permanent comparison in there and it's a breaking. It's like adultery. It's like, now there's this third thing in the room. Your wife says, I love you. You supposedly love me, but you love this remembrance of this other person more. And so now you're saying, why can't I be more like that? It's like that other person's in the room. And what I've read is those, those are the kind of words that have just dramatic destructive power. And so I. This aligns with things that I've read and seen about, about how to have positive, enduring, loving, committed marriages.
Patrick Bet-David
Maybe he's just trying to say, why can't we just be friends?
Tom Zawacki
Why can't we be friends?
Patrick Bet-David
Why can't we be friends? Okay, all right. So now you know.
Chris
So we're gonna go back to Rodney King. Can we all get along, man?
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. So, so this, this next one I'm gonna show is Paul Pierce a very committed husband to his wife? That was a joke. But Paul Pierce is being asked, is being asked about marriage and what he thinks about marriage. And I want to get the thoughts of the panel here, what he thinks about what Paul Pierce said here. Go for it, Brian.
Tom Zawacki
Marriage is for old people and poor people.
Patrick Bet-David
Okay, so let's get into that.
Tom Zawacki
Okay? Because when you broke our parents, like my moms and all them, they, they married on a merit of like, okay, we're gonna put our incomes together, have all these kids, and then when our kids. We're gonna have five, 10 kids back in the 60s, all them, they're gonna have five, 10 kids so they can.
Patrick Bet-David
Work and bring income.
Tom Zawacki
Yeah. So you poor. So you married for that. And now when you get old, somebody got to be by your side to take care of you. Outside of that, it's no advantage to a man. What does it do for a man when things go south? Like, we gonna have to give up half our. This pay child support pay. But what do the. It's only advantageous to a woman. Like, it's real talk.
Patrick Bet-David
But what if you meet a woman and you're like, wow, she's a gem.
Tom Zawacki
She's valuable, she's everything.
Patrick Bet-David
And I wanna lock her down in mar. Want to lock no woman down. We could be cool. So you're telling me right now, today, today you on January 4, you do not want to be in a relationship ever again?
Tom Zawacki
I don't think it's realistic long term.
Patrick Bet-David
Until I turn 70.
Tom Zawacki
I turn 70.
Patrick Bet-David
That's the only realistic part I see is Cause we both old. We ain't outs in the streets. Adam, I'm going to come to you first. Go ahead, Adam.
Chris
At least he's being honest.
Tom Zawacki
On the surface, it would sound pretty shocking, and you might want to disagree with what he's saying, but if you actually peel back what he's saying and remove the hyperbole, it makes a lot of sense. Why? Because what he's saying is this. For a man, modern man, to get married in America, he has to understand what he's getting himself involved in. Are you bringing out this belt for a particular reason, sir?
Patrick Bet-David
You're about to get a papa.
Tom Zawacki
I don't want to pop out. Listen, I believe wholeheartedly in marriage. You should not have sex till you're married. You should marry your high school sweetheart. Don't. Don't shop around for better women out there. Find the first woman that loves you.
Patrick Bet-David
Give you.
Tom Zawacki
No, but reality is.
Patrick Bet-David
But the reality.
Chris
KE said you have to be ready to pay with your life. All you needed for Adam is a belt.
Tom Zawacki
Thank you, Tom. The.
Chris
You seem to have moved your position pretty quick there, dude.
Tom Zawacki
It was. It was a joke. Tomorrow, the belt.
Chris
Don't hurt me. I'll say whatever you want.
Tom Zawacki
The. The reality is, as for men in America today, these are going to be two totally different things. Do you want to find someone to share your life with? Do you want a relationship? Do you want to have kids with somebody? Yes. Yes, yes, yes. Do you want to be married to the government? Do you want to have the. Have half your stuff if not your entire life taken? Do you want to be part of the 98 of men who end up paying alimony? Do you want to basically not be able to see your kids? Do you want to have to pay child support to a woman won't let you, let you see your kids? There's an ugly other side to this marriage.
Patrick Bet-David
Every one of those things he said can be fixed.
Tom Zawacki
Exactly. But one of the best things I ever heard you possibly say is, you know, marriage is risky. Not get. Tom, let's grow up for a second here.
Chris
Tom, I'm taking a bong hit. Tom is going to make sense.
Tom Zawacki
Tom is literally making bong hitting noises here, and I'm the childish one here on the podcast. Okay, guys, let's keep. Let's continue. You know, one of the best things you ever said is, you know, not getting married is risky. I'm sorry, Getting married is risky. Not getting married, even riskier. Having kids is risky. Not having kids, even riskier. Starting a business, Risky, Not Starting a business, even riskier. There's so much truth in that. But the reality is the grass is always greener on both sides. You just have to know what you want out of life and go for that. But I understand what Paul Pierce is saying, but I also understand why someone like him.
Patrick Bet-David
Rob, can you do me a favor? This guy who is. I think his name is Sexton, who is going viral, who's a divorce attorney who tells a lot of stories. He talks about his own personal divorce. But watch what he says caused couples to never come back to him for divorce. You have to watch this clip. Go ahead, Rob, play this clip. He's on Huberman podcast. Go ahead.
Tom Zawacki
And probably hundreds, if not thousands of prenups over 25 years. I think there may be five people that I did their divorce after they had a prenup.
Patrick Bet-David
Really? Yeah.
Tom Zawacki
I think people need to hear that again.
Patrick Bet-David
I think that.
Chris
Yeah.
Adam Sosnick
So.
Tom Zawacki
So I've done hundreds, if not at least a thousand prenups in 25 years. I probably do two or three prenups a week. So I do a lot of prenups. Most of my colleagues do a lot of prenups. And I've never asked my colleagues this.
Patrick Bet-David
But, you know, usually when you do.
Tom Zawacki
A prenup, you have a good relationship with the person. By the time it's finished, it's a transaction people feel good about. It's a divorce.
Chris
Sometimes you finish a divorce and the.
Tom Zawacki
Person'S like, oh, my God, I never.
Patrick Bet-David
Want to see you again.
Tom Zawacki
Because you remind me of this really dark chapter. But prenups, it's usually very friendly transaction. It's positive. This is surprising to me.
Chris
So people who prenup tend not to break up.
Patrick Bet-David
Yes. That rhymes. Yes.
Tom Zawacki
Many people will be very surprised to hear. I think it's self selecting. I think the kind of people who can have a conversation that you need to have in order to discuss and negotiate. And again, there's another term. I don't think it's the right term. Negotiate.
Patrick Bet-David
Vinnie, what are you thinking?
Adam Sosnick
Well, while you guys are talking, I just wanted to see, like, what would make Paul Pierce say something like that. Like, it's for poor people and it's for old people. So he was married to actress Dana Davis in 2000. They had a daughter, and then they divorced in 2004. And then he began dating interior designer Julie Landrum in 2005, married her in 2010. They have three children. And then he announced he was single 2023. I mean, I don't know the history. I don't know, like what. What the relationship was. If there was prenups and if there's all this, it sounds like, you know, he's paid a lot of money. Maybe he did or looks like. From the. From the sound of him being like that, I don't think he signed prenup with the earlier ones. So he's probably bitter and he's spending a lot of money, and it's like.
Patrick Bet-David
Listen, but why do you think he said 70? Did he say 70? Because at 70, he's going to need somebody to take. Maybe his testosterone level is going to be lower.
Adam Sosnick
So it's designed to want to desire. And done playing around, like, done being that guy. And then number two, you're. You're. You're old, and you want somebody like. You know what some other people do? They get a dog, they get a cat. Adam gets two. But I think it's. I think it's. You know, he's been hurt. He's. He's bitter right now.
Patrick Bet-David
Some countries, they get sheeps, they get pigs, they get other types of.
Adam Sosnick
I don't know what you're talking about, but I think. I think he's been, you know, he's been through it. He's seen it. He's bitter.
Patrick Bet-David
East, eastern hemisphere, western, totally different.
Adam Sosnick
Totally different.
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah.
Adam Sosnick
But. Yeah, that's. What's that. And by the way, again, that's his prerogative. That's what he wants. Good luck.
Patrick Bet-David
All right.
Tom Zawacki
Can I say one more thing, because I. I actually get your belt. Well, I mean, Go ahead. There's only one person here on this panel how I believe has been through a divorce.
Patrick Bet-David
You're not the only one.
Tom Zawacki
Oh, Tom as well.
Patrick Bet-David
I'm just saying you're not the only.
Tom Zawacki
One, and you're not the. So I've been through a divorce, and I had a prenup, and the relationship was rocky as hell, but the divorce because of the prenup actually seamless. Not an issue. These are the rules of engagement. These are the rules of what's happening here. We ended up being very cool, mutual friends at the end. A hell of a guy, I'll tell you that much. Joke. Great girl, you know, and she's now married. Now she's starting her own family. She's doing her own thing. But the prenup basically established these are what the rules of engagement are going to be. You know, there's a famous line, Holly, we want prenup. Yeah. Because once you leave, you're actually gonna leave with half if you don't have that prenup, you're gonna get taken to the cleaner. So I totally understand why having a prenup is imperative for both sides. No, don't you. Don't you feel pretty strongly about prenups?
Patrick Bet-David
Oh, I'm a 1 million percent prenup guy.
Tom Zawacki
Okay.
Patrick Bet-David
I'm a 1 million percent prenuP guy. I think it does everything for everyone to know what the risk is and allows the man to actually work harder. Yeah, it allows the man to work harder and provide more. And it causes everybody to understand what's at stake if you do something dumb. And it's not like no one's going to do anything dumb. I mean, you have to realize we're all sinners. We all do dumb things in our lives. But you don't want to make the big, dumb mistakes. If you do, it's going to be costly in a big way. So I do think what Paul is talking about as well is when you go through the life of playing around for too long, you know that whole phrase. What is the phrase? Why can't you be like Johnny when you're at that age and you've been around, you're like, why can't you have her butt but her personality? But Mary's lips, but Jackie's legs, but Cindy's this. And, you know, that person's father and this person's mother and that person's sister and this person. So why can't you have that? Because you have, like, so many different things, so it's hard for you to see anybody you see and you date in one area. They're not going to be as good as another person. You've. You've had anybody. So that's the challenge that it becomes for a guy like Paul Pierce. How old is Paul Pierce, by the way? I don't know how old the guy.
Tom Zawacki
I was probably about to be 50.
Adam Sosnick
47. 47.
Tom Zawacki
Okay.
Patrick Bet-David
Guess what? We're exactly October 18th, baby. He's 13, five days older than me. Yeah.
Tom Zawacki
You know, they say that Paul Pierce is. You know what his nickname was? He played ball. Right. He was the truth. So do you think what he's saying is the truth or is he spitting?
Patrick Bet-David
I think it's his truth. I think it's his truth.
Tom Zawacki
And, oh, you know what they say about my truth these days?
Patrick Bet-David
Yeah. So. But. But listen, it is what it is, and it is a topic of discussion that a lot of people are having. But, like, like Adam said, there are risks to being married, but there are risks to staying single. There are risks to having kids. But there are riskier times to not having kids. You got to manage your own risks. Anyways, gang, it's been great being with you guys, spending time with you. I don't think we have another podcast, Rob. If I'm mistaken, nothing we got going on tomorrow. However, we do have an episode of Her Take coming out tomorrow. And by the way, I don't know if you have the intro or not, Rob.

PBD Podcast Episode 584 Summary
Release Date: May 8, 2025
Host: Patrick Bet-David
Title: Epstein–Prince Andrew SHOCKING Update, Trump HUMILIATES Carney, India v Pakistan
The episode opens with a deep dive into the intensifying conflict between India and Pakistan, particularly focusing on the tragic events of April 22, where a Muslim terrorist organization from Pakistan killed 26 men in the contested Kashmir region. Host Patrick Bet-David and his panelists discuss the historical tensions dating back to the wars of 1947-49 and 1965, emphasizing the nuclear capabilities of both nations.
Notable Quote:
Patrick Bet-David [15:07]: "We are ready to stand up to India regardless of the price. If they want to hurt themselves, they have the capabilities to respond to them on every front."
The conversation highlights the provocative rhetoric from Pakistan’s side, with references to launching nuclear weapons if provoked, drawing parallels to the mutual destruction scenario reminiscent of the Cold War era. The panelists express concern over the potential involvement of China, given its substantial investments in Pakistan and the possibility of a proxy war escalating into a full-scale nuclear confrontation.
A significant portion of the podcast is dedicated to the emerging scandal involving Prince Andrew. New footage released by James O'Keefe features John Bryan, a close advisor to Prince Andrew, making allegations that the Duke of York had engaged in sexual activities with underage girls linked to Jeffrey Epstein. This revelation comes amidst the mysterious death of Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s most vocal accusers.
Notable Quote:
Cash Patel [76:36]: "If your price is not your life, then you are for sale."
The panel condemns the Deep State's alleged involvement in covering up these abuses, criticizing figures like Pam Bondi for dismissing claims about missing Epstein files. They express skepticism about the administration's handling of the situation, suggesting that political influence and blackmail play roles in suppressing accountability.
The episode covers President Trump's meetings with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, highlighting the tension over tariffs and trade agreements. Carney’s assertion that “Canada is not for sale” met with Trump's defiant response, “Never say never,” indicating a stubborn stance on maintaining or adjusting existing tariffs.
Notable Quote:
Mark Carney [37:26]: "Canada is not for sale."
President Trump [37:33]: "Never say never."
The discussion speculates on the implications of this interaction, pondering whether it signals impending changes to US-Canada trade relations and the potential economic impacts on both nations.
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum warns of a looming energy crisis in the United States, emphasizing the country's insufficient energy infrastructure and its reliance on external sources. The podcast critiques the US's sluggish progress in developing nuclear power plants compared to China's aggressive expansion in this sector.
Notable Quote:
Tom Zawacki [60:36]: "Doug Burgum is doing a job for America right now... This is why Google is trying to get permits for its own micro nukes to supply data centers."
