helping to expand the number of people that get to see and hear
it. So thank you again to everyone
who does that. All right, I have got a bunch of
stuff to cover today. It's on four different topics,
but I have several articles for each topic.
(03:45):
And we'll not necessarily read every single word of every
single article, but we're going to go through some of the big
ones. We're going to talk about
Ukraine, of course, we've got yet another fuck Israel segment,
but really it's a fuck the United States and fuck the UK
also because of Israel. And then we're going to
specifically talk about London and UK being a vassal to Israel
(04:08):
and genocide and just how far they've gone to show that it's
it's awful. And then we're going to jump
into, you know, we like to kind of look ahead and see what's
coming. And what's coming is Venezuela,
it might even be here here on Pine.
You're going to be our cunt counter for the night.
Thank you. I'm going to try to dial it back
(04:30):
a little bit, but you never know.
So keep keep it active. Thank you.
All right, thank you so much. All right.
And then we got a short lightning round and then we're
going to we've got an update. Unfortunately, Shanda is going
to need some help on the GoFundMe side.
We've got Natalia, who's still being held by Ice, the
motherfuckers illegally, of course, so we've got hers and
(04:54):
then Anna Marie Smith. We're going to bring those three
later on tonight late, and then we'll wrap up and we're going to
do Boats on the Ocho. It's not going to be uncensored
tonight. So we will be on YouTube and
we'll be over on Rumble on the Ocho and then everywhere else
we'll be on the INN channels as well as on INN newsletter.com.
(05:14):
All right, let's get to our first thing, which is Ukraine.
Holy crap. You know, we haven't talked much
about Ukraine in the last, I don't know, several months.
It's basically not really been moving much.
There's been a lot of head fakes.
You know, Trump said he would end it on day one.
We all knew that wasn't going tohappen.
(05:37):
But I saw this post and I thought it was really
interesting. And it's starting to really pop
up again. And I don't know if it's because
they're looking to free up the budget, if they're looking to
wrap it up and move it somewhereelse, if they're looking to just
take it to the next level and escalate.
But it's really interesting to see how it's going.
And so I look at this, the likely new shape of Ukraine.
(06:00):
This is a Facebook post from a guy named John Melody, who I'm
not familiar with, showed up in my feed.
And I looked at some of these maps.
And I'm like, this is really interesting.
So the first thing is the post says after Victoria Nuland,
Obama and Hillary Clinton ET al instigated the Maidan coup in
2014, the Bandarite Nazis bombedthe Eastern Russia centric
(06:21):
oblasts OK, killing 14,000 civilians.
Putin stepped in to stop the slaughter and put down the
Nazis. After millions of deaths caused
by the US and EU and NATO military industrial complex
warmongering, the borders might align the way they probably
should have been drawn in the first place.
So this shows the borders from several different angles.
(06:47):
That Russian? Speaking down at the bottom.
Right. So this, so this is, you know,
Hungary, all right, is over here.
And then you've got Ukraine here, of course, and then Novo
Novo Russia and then Crimea, which is a whole Russia thing
right now. What you're looking at here in
(07:08):
2014, all right, where it was occupied by the Russia states,
right. And then you had armed
insurgency in the Donetsk and Luhansk in the in, in the
Donbass region. You had Crimea being controlled
by Russia, right? And and then you had the pro
(07:31):
Russian protests happening here,which ends up in now they look,
they go back to the 2006 parliamentary election and show
you several elections over time that the country was clearly
split clearly. So it was go and then you know,
(07:53):
look, they were bombing the separatists and the people, the
Russian speakers over here, but still claiming the land.
And like, so this is for who voted for Yanukovych is all the
red who voted for Tymoshenko, right?
Is the Ukrainians in the east? I'm sorry, in the West, in the
(08:18):
Kiev region, in the Kharkiv, even Kharkiv voted for
Yanukovych, right? And then you get to which ones
speak Russian as a native language.
Crimea and Luhansk, I believe that's Luhansk.
That's Donetsk or opposite way, right?
Mostly they're Russian speaking over here and then less than 5%
(08:40):
over here in the east. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
In the West, I keep messing thisup because I'm looking at this
and I don't know why I keep thinking that The east, yes, the
east. All right.
So is this the way that it, you know, this is the way that they
were disputing it, Western Ukraine, yet central Ukraine,
(09:03):
which had the Kiev region, Kiev,southeastern Ukraine is down
here, right. Then you've got Crimea again,
always status disputed for some reason.
And that's the Zakhar Patia, which I guess would go to part
of what was it, Hungary. Sure.
(09:24):
So this is the way I believe he sees it shaking out, right, is
that all of this would end up going basically to Russia, or at
least this part, and Crimea. I don't know what would happen
with the rest of it. So this is the Ukrainian
presidential election from 2004.It goes back even further,
(09:46):
Yanukovych versus Yushenko Yukoshenko, right?
Still, you could see there's a clear split 2004 election
results. I think this is back to the
beginning. Yep.
So yeah, they should have just drawn the maps like that in the
(10:08):
1st place and basically let Russia have that part.
And none of that would have beennecessary except that I think
that that's a little naive. So I decided to bring an article
by the dissident to explain a little bit more how the West
provoked that war in Ukraine. He actually followed it up later
on with a follow up later on in the week about what what's
(10:32):
happening now. But with Trump and Putin's
recent meeting, it's worth looking back at the history of
the war. And he breaks it down into 4
segments in expanding NATO, intolooking deeper into the Maidan
coup in 2014, into the effort toprolong the war and then
analyzing it from the current situation.
(10:53):
So he starts by saying that Trump and Putin's Alaska meeting
wrapped up with no real answer as to whether there would be a
negotiated peace deal to end thewar in Ukraine.
I think we're pretty confident that's not going to happen at
this point. Like that was just kind of a, a,
a head fake right? As Kelly Bokar Flahos from
(11:14):
Responsible Statecraft noted quote, no deal nor a framework
for a deal was announced after the meeting.
Now while the meeting will hopefully make inroads to soon
end of the war in Ukraine, the real question is how did it
start in the 1st place and what originally soured US and Russia
relations? Didn't answer to this question.
(11:35):
Never reported on mainstream on in mainstream media is a
coordinated neo con campaign to launch a new Cold War with
Russia and provoke a Russian invasion of Ukraine to use the
country and its people as cannonfodder to weaken Russia.
So in this article it reveals itreviews the real history of the
(11:56):
Ukraine war and the new Cold Warwith Russia.
That's the whole idea here. So the first thing again is and
I think that we've talked about the expansion of NATO since the
end of the Cold War in 91 Russiaexperts across the board warned
that expanding NATO membership eastward would ruin America
(12:16):
Russian relations, right and launched hostilities between the
two countries. In the 97 op-ed for the New York
Times, George F Kennan, all right, some well respected U.S.
diplomat wrote that expanding NATO would be the most fateful
error of American policy in the entire post Cold War era.
(12:38):
No argument. He warned that such a decision
may be expected to inflamed the nationalistic, anti Western and
militaristic tendencies in Russian opinion to have an
adverse effect on the development of Russian
democracy, but also to restore the atmosphere the Cold War to
East West relations, right, and to impel Russian foreign policy
(13:02):
in directions not decidedly not to our liking.
So, and last but not least, it might make it much more
difficult, if not impossible to secure the Russian Dumas
ratification of the START to agreement, right.
And to further reductions of nuclear weaponry.
Yeah, this was 1997. Right, he noted, to agreement.
(13:25):
Right. He noted that this view is not
only mine, but is shared by a number of others with extensive
and in most instances, most recent experience in Russian
matters. They just didn't care.
NATO ignored this warning and expanded NATO to Czech Republic,
Hungary and Poland in 99 Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia,
Lithuania, Romania, Slovakia andSlovenia.
(13:48):
In 2004, NATO also bombed the former Yugoslavia, a Russian
ally, in 99, leading to its balkanization and breakup.
I wonder if that strategy is happening right now.
The bombing was billed as a humanitarian intervention, sound
familiar? Done to protect Albanians in
(14:08):
Kosovo from the Serbian government led by genocide, Air
Slobodan Milosevic. But in reality, it was
geopolitically motivated. Say that five times fast.
Slobodan Milosevic. I could do that.
Yeah, exactly. Sounds.
Like a it sounds like a Pokémon evolution is what it sounds
like, right? So what do I know?
(14:32):
Here's you got a former Canadianambassador to Yugoslavia, which
later wrote that media reports have revealed that as early as
1998, CIA, assisted by British Special Armed Services, were
arming and trading Kosovo Liberation Army members in
Albania to foment armed rebellion in Kosovo.
(14:53):
That would never happen. What?
The KLA terrorists were sent back to Kosovo to assassinate
Serbian mayors, ambush Serbian policemen to do everything
possible to incite murder and chaos.
Syria rings a bell. The hope was that Kosovo in
flames. With that, with Kosovo in
(15:15):
flames, NATO could intervene andin so doing not only overthrow
Milosevic, the Serbian strongman, but more importantly,
provide the aging and increasingly irrelevant military
organization with a reason for its continued existence.
That's a great question. Why does NATO still exist?
(15:37):
It's a military thing, as Noam Chomsky said.
Quote in the in the year prior to the bombing, according to
western sources, about 2000 people were killed.
According to the British government, which was the most
hawkish element of the alliance up until January 1999, a
majority of killings came from KLA guerrillas who were coming
(15:57):
in as they said they tried to incite a harsh Serbian response.
Sounds like a false flag almost.Which they got in order to
appeal to western humanitarians to bomb.
Which they got. They were being supported by CIA
in these months. Again, not a surprise.
Yeah. He quotes Jeffrey Sachs about
(16:21):
bombing Belgrade for 78 days. Chomsky More Chomsky By 2008,
the US again was given a dire warning about its provocative
policy towards Russia, this timefrom the Ambassador to Russia,
Bill Burns, who later served as Biden's CIA director And
inflamed this whole fucking thing.
He knew better than anyone. In a secret memo later released
(16:44):
by WikiLeaks, Burns gave a prophetic warning, saying
Ukraine and Georgia's NATO aspirations not only touch a raw
nerve in Russia, they engender serious concerns about the
consequences for stability in the region.
Not only does Russia perceive encirclement and efforts to
undermine Russia's influence in the region, but it also fears
(17:07):
unpredictable and uncontrolled consequences which would
seriously affect Russian security interests.
Yes, they are worried about whatwhat we're doing.
They've seen what we've done in Libya and everywhere else to try
to destabilize strong governments that have resources.
All right. Burns even correctly predicted
that NATO expansion in Ukraine and Georgia would lead to a
(17:30):
civil war in Ukraine and a Russian invasion.
Writing that quote, experts tellus that Russia is particularly
worried that strong divisions inUkraine over NATO membership,
with much of the ethnic Russian community against membership,
would lead to a major split involving violence or at worst,
civil war. In that eventuality, Russia
(17:53):
would have to decide whether to intervene, a decision Russia
does not want to have to face. So you mean our own CIA director
is acknowledging that Russia didn't want to have to face that
and that we pushed him into it because NATO was bombing the
Russian speaking portion of Ukraine?
(18:13):
Again, despite this accurate warning, NATO announced at the
2008 Bucharest summit that, quote, NATO allies welcomed
Ukraine and Georgia's Euro Atlantic aspirations for
membership and agreed that thesecountries will become members of
NATO. They're still not, by the way,
today. And the reason why is because
(18:35):
Russia's worried and would probably invade any country that
did because they don't want to see NATO at their doorstep.
OK, so this is the e-mail from Burns.
And you've got here NATO announcing its intent to expand
membership. Then we get into Maidan.
(18:55):
By 2013, CIA came up with a plotto overthrow governments
surrounding Russia and turn theminto western puppet states to
use against Russia. The president of the Ned, Carl
Gershman, who's a cut out of theCIA's regime change arm, even
laid this out in an opt out for the in an op-ed and the
(19:16):
Washington Post. They just tell.
They just tell it right up front, he wrote the quote, the
United States needs to engage with the governments and with
civil society in Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova.
I believe we've seen that happenin Georgia and Moldova now with
the ultimate goal of regime change in Russia writing, quote,
(19:37):
Russian democracy and also benefit from this process only
if they are, of course, subservient to the US.
Continuing Ukraine's choice to join Europe will accelerate the
demise of the ideology of Russian imperialism that Putin
represents. OK, there are signs of the
(19:58):
emergence of a new Russian nationalism.
The strong performance by opposition leader Alexei
Navalny. In Moscow's recent mayoral
election and Poles no greater opposition to Putin than the
Russian provinces, his traditional support base.
This nationalism is concerned not with the restoration of
(20:20):
Russia's imperial greatness, which would be inconceivable if
Ukraine joined Europe, right, but with fighting corruption and
addressing the severe economic and social problems of the
Russian people, quote. Now notice again CIA agent
Alexei Navalny, who's now deceased.
(20:42):
And yeah, this is the right. This was the CI as regime change
arm, arm. It was a madman, right, that was
laying the groundwork in this regime change plot against
Russia. Go to the Russians, he.
Wrote that Ukraine is the biggest prize.
Indeed, since 91 the US has spent $5 billion on propaganda
(21:07):
operations in Ukraine to try to turn it into a more pro West and
anti Russian direction. God we just have to have those
Nazis on our side. I swear this ramped up.
We are the United States government.
We don't do that sort of thing. This ramped up in 2013 when the
US poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into quote UN quote,
(21:28):
think tanks that organized protests against Ukraine's then
democratically elected presidentViktor Yanukovych, which
eventually devolved into a far right coup that deposed him and
allowed the West to install a puppet government.
It was a color revolution, journalist Bronco Martich.
(21:50):
Didn't you go too well? No.
So Bronco. Color revolutions don't work out
all that great. They do for for the West, and
they do temporarily, but long term they tend.
To nod so much. Journalist Bronco Mark, Mark
Teach, Mark Kinnick who is with Jacobin at the ESA member noted
(22:11):
that the US funded groups like New Citizen, which the FT
reported quote played a big rolein getting the protest up and
running, led by a pro EU opposition figure.
Wonder how that happened? After Yanukovych was deposed,
Jeffrey Sachs was asked to advise new Western installed
(22:32):
Ukrainian government. How convenient.
I wonder how it is that Jeffrey Sachs gets that kind of an
invite, yet he's allowed to go out and tell the truth on
independent media. Nobody ever asked that question,
but I will later on the show. Breaking points.
Read my article. Read the article shared to any
media today, Today and tomorrow and the day after about breaking
(22:56):
points from 2022. Jeffrey Sachs revealed that U.S.
officials bragged about funding think tanks that got the coup up
and running, saying I flew thereto Ukraine.
And when somebody got there, when I got there, somebody read
representing an American NGO, somebody explained to me how
much American money had gone into pumping the Maidan coup.
(23:21):
He's got a weird accent, he said.
I saw it, the Americans said. I thought you were just doing
Gilbert Gottfried. We gave $50,000 to this one
think tank, 5 million to this one, 5000 of this one, and so
forth. They're just bragging.
They did it through USAID and Ned.
(23:43):
They did it through think tanks,They did it through Project for
a New American Century. The protests were eventually
taken over by a large host of far right militias like Red
Sector right. Follow Moss Robison for more
about the Ukrainian Nazis, right.
(24:06):
American Senators Chris Murphy and John McCain were even even
went to Ukraine to stand with the far right leader Ole Tianbo
Tiannibo as he called for the overthrow of Yanukovych, duly
elected. All right then, you had.
I smell PayPal mafia upcoming. You would smell Omidyar
(24:30):
somewhere in the background, right When returning from
Ukraine, Murphy went on C-SPAN and bragged that the US was
behind the coup against Yanukovych.
Jesus Christ. Yeah, that that happens.
Other people can just go back totheir countries and bragged that
(24:50):
they instituted A coup and left.Uh huh.
He bragged. With respect to Ukraine, we have
been very much involved. And we have members of the
Senate who've been there, members of the State Department
who've been on the square. You mean CIA agents?
He also bragged that it was our role, including sanctions and
threats of sanctions, that forced, in part, Yanukovych from
(25:13):
office and then boasted that theUS helped to lead this change in
regime. Yes, yes they did.
And he's still in office to thisday.
By the way, like I said, anotherfar right group that was
influential in the coup was Right Sector, which committed a
series of massacres against protesters, which were then
(25:33):
blamed on Yanukovych and used bythe US as justification for
backing the coup. And then they supported the
murderers that did it. The most consequential massacre
occurred on February 20th, 2014,with 48 protesters killed by
sniper fire in Maidan Square. That's why they call it the
(25:53):
Maidan coup. The Ukrainian Canadian professor
of political science, Ivan Kaczynowski has compiled a large
database of evidence proving that the massacre was carried
out by Right Sector and falsely blamed on Yanukovych's forces.
Kaczanowski uncovered that 51 out of 72 wounded Maidan
(26:16):
protesters with whose shooting on February 20th Barracoot
policemen are charged and whose testimonies were revealed,
testified at the trial and at the investigation that they had
been shot by snipers from Maidancontrolled buildings or areas,
had themselves witnessed snipersthere, or had been told by other
(26:36):
Maidan protesters about such snipers.
There was not. This was not a mystery, right?
Forensic medical examinations done by government experts were
first made public during the massacre trial and revealed that
the absolute majority of protesters were shot from the
side or back and from top to bottom.
(26:59):
That's from sniper fire. Both photos and videos, however,
show that the absolute majority of those killed and wounded had
the Berkut police in front of them and at ground level,
whereas the Maidan control buildings were generally behind
them and on the left and right side.
And 48 out of 51, thank you had steep entry wounds.
(27:22):
All right, consistent, all rightwith the theory that they were
shot by snipers in Maidan control buildings or on the
roofs of these buildings. So there was very little doubt,
a lot of receipts. Then we get to Victoria,
Newland. the US used this coup to install a puppet government
in Ukraine. Then Assistant Secretary of
(27:42):
State Victoria Nuland was caughton tape plotting to install
Yatsenyuk or Yats as the interimPrime Minister of Ukraine, who
then got that position after Yanukovych was removed.
It's very famous. She's on tape saying Yats is the
guy they were thinking about making Vitali Klitschko the
mayor at the time. Who are these few?
(28:04):
Are these people Who? Another one.
Thank you. One of the reasons for this, as
Forbes noted at the time, was because Yanukovych resisted the
IMS demand to raise taxes and devalue the currency, while Yatz
didn't mind. Weird.
(28:24):
All right. Another reason was that the West
wanted a Ukrainian government when that was openly hostile to
Russia, as Constantine Bondarenko, one of Ukraine's
leading political scientists, put it.
Quote. The West however did not want a
Ukrainian president who pursued a multi vector foreign policy.
(28:44):
The West needed Ukraine to be anti Russia with clear
opposition between Kiev and Moscow.
Yanukovych was open to broad cooperation with the West, but
he wasn't willing to confront Russia and China, which was
smart. The West could not accept this
ambivalence. The West needed a Ukraine
charged for confrontation and even war against Russia, a
(29:08):
Ukraine could use as a tool in the fight against Russia, right?
This was, again, one of Ukraine's leading political
scientists who analyzed this, and he's admitting this.
And again, it's a long piece, and this goes very deep into a
bunch of, and there's only half halfway through, All right, then
(29:29):
we get into prolonging that war,right?
By 2022, Russia had set out a list of demands for the West to
stop their invasion of Ukraine. And these were, it was very
simple. NATO guarantees it won't deploy
missile missiles in nations bordering Russia.
They're already in place from Slovenia to Romania with Poland
(29:52):
to follow. By the way, NATO was supposed to
stop military and naval exercises in nations and seas
bordering Russia. Now NATO said Russia can't
dictate to us what we can and can't do.
Ukraine will never become a NATO, a NATO member.
Well, they're again saying that's not up to Russia to
decide. The western Russia should sign a
(30:16):
binding East West security pact.We don't see that happening
anytime soon. And then also the landmark
treaty between the US and Russiacovering intermediate range
nuclear weapons would then be restored, meaning and abandoning
nuclear weapons. Read that right.
Russia wants to abandon the pursuit of nuclear weapons.
(30:39):
Not us. Russia though, they fear monger
that Russia's the one that are pushing us towards the nuclear
break. No, it's us.
It's always been us, all right? There's Jeffrey Sachs again,
talking about exactly what happened.
You know what's happening now. Ukrainian outlet Pravda reported
(31:01):
at the time, again, that Boris Johnson appeared at the Capitol
almost without warning. This is talking about how they
had a deal in April of 2020. 2 yeah.
And said that even Ukraine is ready to sign some agreements
and guarantees with Putin that the West was not and that he
(31:23):
couldn't sign and that he should.
Zelensky should surrender and flee.
But now felt that Putin was not really as powerful as they'd
previously imagined. And here, here was a chance to
press him. Three days after Johnson left
for Britain, Putin went public and said talks with Ukraine had
turned into a dead end. And it was then continued to be
(31:48):
funded and armed by US and London mostly.
London even said what was it, irradiated shells and stuff.
I remember right. And then we get to the current
situation because the West provoked.
Uranium tipped munitions. That's it.
(32:10):
Because the West provoked and prolonged the war in Ukraine,
1,000,000 people have been killed or wounded on both sides.
Not 1.7 million Ukrainians, as somebody put out incorrectly
earlier this week. Made a whole video about it too.
They added up the totals at the end of each year which were
(32:31):
cumulative and acted like that was the total for each
individual year, which when you added it up, added 1.7 million.
But that's not what it was. Ukraine's lost about 650,000 I
believe. A million killed or wounded is a
ton of fucking people by the way, for no reason at all.
No good reason. The majority of Ukrainians are
(32:54):
now desperate for an end to the war.
According to a recent Gallup poll, 69% of Ukrainians say they
favor a negotiated end to the war as soon as possible.
I don't necessarily believe a Gallup poll either in Ukraine,
compared with 24% who continue to support.
All right, that's a Western outlet polling Ukrainians.
(33:16):
I smell bullshit there. I smell, you know, narrative.
Meanwhile, back in the hall of injustice, the Western back
Zelensky government, remember, they are still illegally in
place right now. They're effectively A
dictatorship because his term expired and they decided to
suspend elections. They're trying to continue the
(33:38):
war to hold on to power. Sounds like what Bibi is doing
in in Gaza, even though that's not a war, that's a massacre.
It's US backed all right? Because of this, the Ukrainian
government has resorted to forcing people into vans and
forcing them to die in the unwinnable war.
(33:58):
Inscription Financial Times Right wrote that video shared on
social media has shown Ukrainianmen being picked off the streets
and brutally crammed into vans while angry locals are lashing
out at military recruiters. The Telegraph newspaper recently
wrote that Ukraine is visibly losing the war right A Polish
(34:19):
media analyst, largely because of the manpower crisis.
Again. This outlet noted that around
650,000 men of fighting age are thought to have fled Ukraine as
well. Others hide or bribe draft
officers and army psychiatrists for health exemptions, right?
Continuing the war at this pointwould be pure cruelty, forcing a
(34:41):
war weary population to fight inan unwinnable war that they've
already been in for 3 1/2 years.But the fundamental point is
that the war should never have happened to begin with, as the
dissident points out. OK, and it's brought nothing but
death and destruction. And to Ukraine with no benefit?
None. The West could have prevented
(35:04):
the war, they could have negotiated a stop to the Russian
invasion, they could have supported the Istanbul peace
talks. But instead they decided to use
Ukraine as a pawn to weaken their geopolitical enemy Russia,
and in a lot of ways I don't think it accomplished what they
wanted it to. Really.
(35:28):
I don't know, because after three years Russia does not seem
to be very much weakened. I mean, they certainly lost a
lot of people militarily for sure.
Yes, the daily Tory graph is toilet paper.
I agree. Keira on Pine for sure.
Now there's, there's more here. There's this one and this talk
(35:51):
some more about Victoria Nuland right back in 2016.
Again, John Earl. Back in 2016, Victoria Nuland
bragged to Congress about how thoroughly Washington had taken
over Ukraine after the 2014 coup.
She laid it out without shame. US operatives embedded in a
dozen Ukrainian ministries. American trained cops patrolled
(36:14):
18 cities, the US Treasury gutted 60 Ukrainian banks while
sparing depositors to keep people quiet, and hundreds of
millions of dollars were funneled into molding Ukraine's
military. This wasn't assistance.
It was a takeover dressed up as aid.
And guess what? It's continuing to this day.
(36:36):
She's anything but honorable. She's an awful human being,
right? And then the last thing I wanted
to bring was about Eva Bartlett,Indie Media Award honoree,
right? She she wrote an article on her
(36:57):
WordPress blog, which is in gaza.wordpress.com and it's
titled Rock is a Crock of because three years ago we read
an article by Eva on the show about petal mines in Donetsk.
And you read here that she says that she was in the next Donetsk
(37:21):
when Ukraine fired rockets containing the pedal mines.
He documented their presence in streets, parks, residential
areas of Donetsk and an orphanage in Makeva to the east
right versus DW in France. 24 fact checkers.
So what had happened was he asked, somebody had asked Rock
(37:42):
about the pedal mines, and Grok disputed their existence.
Yeah. Right, so she says interestingly
on Twitter. Alina lip, right?
I believe so. Bunch on that.
Yes, and Alina Lip is facing prison time in Germany for it.
(38:08):
Yeah, increasingly on Twitter people are relying on Elon
Musk's Grok algorithm, you know,the AI bull crap for
verification of information in posts.
However, while to some this may seem like a useful tool, what it
is doing is reinforcing Western and allied regimes positions and
whitewashing their crimes. No, they never would do that.
(38:31):
Brock draws information. Brock draws information from
dominant narratives usually established by legacy media with
its very long track record of pro western lies and war
propaganda to conclude whether information in particular post
is true. Brock is this true.
When it comes to matters in which the West and Israel, among
(38:53):
others, have a vested interest in controlling the narrative,
Brock sides with the claims pervade by legacy media.
Instead of providing objective, truthful answers, it creates A
propaganda loop of actual disinformation.
Again, which was exactly the point, all right.
Thus, as was the case some days ago, Grok determined that a post
(39:16):
of Eva's in Ukraine's use of intentionally banned pedal mines
against Don Bass civilians was pro Russian disinformation, and
that evidence suggests that PFM use in the the Nets was likely a
Russian false flag, not Ukraine.OK, except that she had pictures
(39:38):
with the fucking markings on them from like got them
personally. This in spite of the fact that
again, I was back in Donetsk in late July 2022 when Ukraine
fired rockets containing hundreds of these mines on
Donetsk and surrounding areas. On July 30th at 9:23 PM, she
wrote on her Telegram channel about a strong explosion that
(40:01):
she had just heard in central Donetsk.
An hour later, DPR journalist. Georgie Medvedev wrote on his
channel warning civilians not togo near the mines and not to
walk on grass or areas where they could have landed.
In fact, for weeks after, he walked consistent, constantly
looking down at her feet and avoiding anything that was
(40:23):
visible. Pavement so tiny and difficult
to see are these mines? And again, there they are.
She's got them kind of cordoned off and and chalked off.
It's this little thing right there.
There's enough lower further down below there's another photo
(40:43):
that's more up close right here they are.
She's saying that again from August 1st.
Even with warning, these nefarious pedal or butterfly
mines drop by Ukraine on the next are hard to see and easy to
miss. Ukraine is committing war crimes
against the civilians to the Donbass and they have been for 8
plus years. There they are.
(41:05):
That's a pedal mine. So you step on that, you go
boom. They're the size of an average
lighter brown or green and blendin very well wherever they land.
Even when I saw a sign with a warning of a mine, it was
difficult to initially see them.These high explosive explosive
(41:27):
pressure mines mutilate or tear off feet and legs up to the
knees, but also explode hands oranimals, according to
Constantine Zhukov, chief medical officer of Donetsk
Ambulance Service. Right, a weight of just two
kilograms is enough to activate one of the mines.
(41:47):
Sometimes they explode spontaneously.
If they aren't disturbed, they can lie dormant for years and
still work. As she wrote at the time,
According to DPR emergency services, Ukraine fired rockets
containing cluster munitions with over 300 petal mines
inside. The cluster explodes in the air,
(42:10):
disseminating the mines widely. Due to their design, most land
without exploding. Even after sappers had cleared
an area of the mines, a strong wind or rain could and did
dislodge the mines which landed on rooftops or in trees.
So you still had some falling down.
(42:32):
The mines are indiscriminate weapons which pose great danger
to civilians. Ukraine signed the anti
personnel mine. Go ahead.
They were like, they found them in playgrounds and like, you
know, civilian areas, parks, things like that, so.
(42:54):
Yep, all right, she says. She documented the mines, the
emergency sappers clearing and the destruction of the mines in
various regions of Donetsk and Mekiva, which is east of
Donetsk. She wrote about them, then wrote
a follow up Article 3 weeks after the late attacks
highlighting that by that .44 civilians had been maimed by the
(43:17):
mines, who of whom died of theirinjuries.
Then in that November, she had met a 14 year old boy being
treated in a Donetsk hospital after he stepped on a mine in a
playground, losing his foot to the explosive.
It should be noted that Ukraine first deployed these mines in
March of 2022 during the battlesfrom Mariupol.
(43:40):
As of July 9th of this year, 186civilians have been maimed by
the mines, including eleven children, three of whom have
died from their injuries. There's a propagandist telling
ACIA agent all about them, but Eva likes those guys.
Grok's dubious but very partial Western sources, of course.
(44:03):
All right, again, she's then pointing out about how they're
they're relying on Deutsche Welle and France 24 and Reuters.
And we're going to talk about Reuters and their writers even
speaking out against just how much they're propagandizing the
West and how they're pushing proIsrael propaganda.
(44:24):
All right, what channel is this?What, what is this about?
Who, who are these people? TTT Who, who's that DTT guy?
I, I don't know. All right, who did Grok deem
credible? The very partial Western NGO
Human Rights Watch, which in February of 2023 surprisingly
issued a report about Ukraine's use of the mines in Izium, but
(44:46):
unsurprisingly not on their use of the mines in Donbass.
So that's really interesting. So they're already been like
known to use these mines elsewhere.
Russia has not. They signed a treaty.
They have them. They signed a treaty not to use
them, but they're clearly using them.
Rock cherry picked aspects of the Human Rights Watch report to
(45:08):
whitewash Ukrainian culpability in the Donbass, adding claims
from various Western agencies toaccuse Russian forces themselves
of dropping the mines on the Donbass cities.
No evidence to that, as they say.
None of Grok's sources were anywhere near the next to
(45:28):
investigate Ukraine's deploying of the mines.
Trust me, bro. Similarly, some months ago, Eva
came across and refuted Grok's repeating of the legacy media 22
claims of the alleged mass graves outside Mariupol.
That's another, you know, propaganda narrative that was
(45:49):
pushed. So she she says I had actually
gone in April of 2022 and again in November to each of the three
sites named in the media reportsand found no mass graves, but
normal functioning cemeteries with individual plots.
And in the case of the largest, Dari Krim, a Chapel and a
(46:10):
funeral ongoing at the time I was there, a recently deceased
elderly man being buried in the cemetery.
So no evidence. Again, she's got the photos
right. None of the sources cited in the
media's baseless accusations were anywhere near the three
cemeteries which they dubbed mass graves.
(46:33):
Again, they were getting this straight out of CIA and pushed
through the propaganda networks of Reuters, which then and then
that disseminated through DW andFrance 24 and the USA TODAY and
every major newspaper around theworld.
It's insane. The issue isn't even about this
(46:55):
algorithm discrediting of Eva's reports, which are reports which
other journalists find credible,but it's that it's using the
same clearly partial sources that legacy media uses to
justify her whitewashed NATO andallies crimes.
As she's written previously, Human Rights Watch is one of
many western funded Ng OS with ahistory of downplaying or
(47:15):
ignoring crimes committed by western governments or proxies.
Go figure. Human Rights Watch, Amnesty
International, and the many moreoften OFT sighted, supposedly
neutral bodies have very clear ties and allegiance directly to
Western governments. Citing them as credible, as
noted previously, creates A propaganda loop of
(47:37):
disinformation that aligns with Western objectives around the
globe. This is an accidental.
It's by design. That's right Eva, thank you.
Some on Twitter posit how Grok functions.
Not actually AI, not independentright here.
Grok barely resembles AI, for what it's worth.
(47:58):
It's essentially a Google like search engine similarly
perverted by the security state,filtered through a large
language model or a large learning language learning model
to give it the veneer of a or gloss of AI.
It isn't independent and its results can be predetermined.
It only mimics intelligence. I found that you need to kind of
(48:21):
lawyer your way into getting an answer and then grok will
begrudgingly admit. Google threw it.
Yeah, you're right. Yeah.
OK. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.
OK. You got me there.
Brock barely were there. OK While Grok does seem
malleable, if enough people contribute non Western talking
points as was the case on the threat in question.
(48:44):
Right with Grok eventually admitting that her reporting was
factual again, it will concede after you beat it up enough
times. It's go to programming is to
recycle western narratives, particularly anti Russian ones
including parroting western think tanks calls for regime
change in Russia. That's the whole goal here.
(49:05):
They want to get rid of Putin sothey can who gave feel the
resources. Who gave Ukraine Starling?
Who did that? That would be Elon Musk.
Somebody. Oh, that guy.
Right. So that was a little long
(49:25):
because we had a bunch of stuff on Ukraine already.
I wanted to go back through the history because we don't do that
often enough. For those who are just catching
up to what's going on in Ukrainenow, we need to make sure that
that history is solidified, planted, and people understand
just who provoked this, just whyeverything is the way it is now
and the way that the US wants itheaded versus the way Russia
(49:49):
wants it. Russia wants it's done.
Russia does not want to keep fighting.
The people who want to keep fighting are US and the UK.
Ukrainians apparently don't evenwant to keep fighting, although
I don't necessarily believe that.
I don't think that they ever want to concede part of their
country to Russia. I think they've been brainwashed
and propagandized into this nationalistic fervor that's cost
(50:13):
them over 600,000 people already, an entire generation of
fighters. It's it's sad.
All right, so we're not going toget you know, YouTube does not
like it when you don't parrot pro Ukraine narratives.
So we certainly won't be re monetized on INN for that.

All right, at indymediatonay.comwhere we are live right now.
And hi to everyone over there that's watching live INN

smashing and other boats, our funny React show.
If you haven't checked that out,check it out.
It'll be live on our other channel, INN 8 The Ocho.
(51:21):
Really funny but I actually saw that there's now a Pluto channel
or ALG or whatever. I I have an LGTVA full time 24
hour channel called INN 8 the Ocho.
I just hope they don't sue us. ESPN 8 The Ocho, you fucking
weirdo. I see.
I'd say it so much I forgot it. Right.
(51:43):
Thank you. It's ESPN.
Legally distinct, Sir. That's correct.
It is having words with you. It is legally distinct for sure.
I wanted to see who who hooked us up with the Co fees.
I saw, I think it was Sean who said thanks for all you do.
I really appreciate you. And then I did not get to see
(52:03):
who the other one came in through.
But yeah, I don't. And I also don't know why that
didn't did the thing show up on screen.
I didn't see, I was, I don't know, looking at another one.
Let's go to this one. All right, Oh, before we do
that, let me close down my bookmarks.
You don't have to see that more surface area.
(52:24):
Perfect. Let's do this again.
All right, Fuck Israel. Should do you want to hit the
hit the theme song? Do we have a theme song this
week for Fuck Israel? Brief.
I mean, if you had prepared me, Sir.
Oh, I guess you had to bring that up.
(52:52):
Hey, fuck Israel, all right? I debated whether to even show
this video or not. It's pretty graphic.
Journalist Mosa Babu Toha. I'm devastated.
I wish I had never seen this video.
I wish I never had to share it. This footage is from an air
(53:15):
strike on civilians walking downthe street in Gaza City a few
hours ago. On the right, two people lie
motionless, heads split open. On the left, three others.
One is dead beside his bicycle, while the other two writhed and
panicked, their hands flailing in terror.
Inside a tent, one wants a simple charging station for
(53:37):
phones. Two people are still clinging to
life. This isn't war.
This is terrorism. Again, I debated whether to
bring this, but you know what? Israel's doing it.
So we kind of need to show it, Ifeel like.
(54:24):
This is what our bombs and weapons are doing.
Yeah, we'll probably get this locked out for showing some
graphic stuff, but I think it's important for people to see we
(54:45):
are responsible for this. In part, we are responsible for
this. Ali Amoro says Israel is
slaughtering Palestinians in Gaza Right now.
Israeli forces are pushing into Gaza City, advancing through
Zaitoun and Jabalia, with 60,000more troops mobilized, 60,000.
(55:08):
Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians are being driven
from their homes under siege with no escape, no food, and no
safety. This is a mass slaughter of a
trapped and starving people. Fucking horrible.
Fuck Israel. All right, so I got this article
out of Jason Hickel, who asks the obvious and silly question.
(55:31):
Why does the US support Israel'scrimes?
Well, it's because we're implicated.
But it's still a really silly question that seems obvious.
Why does the US support Israel'sgenocidal crimes against the
Palestinian people, even in the face of overwhelming
international condemnation at massive expense and to the point
(55:52):
of totally debasing the very frameworks of human rights and
international law that it pretends to uphold?
Like everything that we claim that we believe in is being
thrown to the wolves here. People fall back on narratives
about the power of AIPAC in US elections and other forms of
Israeli political interventions in the US Like Qatar and like
(56:15):
Zionists of America, that's our AJ St.
That's a real force and can't beignored.
But the reality is that the US ruling class broadly supports
Israel's actions with bipartisanconsensus because they see this
as aligned with the interests ofUS capitalism and more emotion
(56:37):
and. Capitalism.
Right. And most other Western
governments, Britain, Germany, et cetera, hold the same
position for much the same reason.
The important thing to understand is that the
capitalist economy is a world system where growth and
accumulation in the imperial core, e.g, US and Western Europe
relies heavily on the appropriation of cheap labor and
(57:00):
resources from the periphery andsemi periphery or the global
South. Western States and firms need
southern states to remain subordinated suppliers of cheap
labor, raw materials and consumer goods within global
commodity chains. And not just Global South in, in
(57:21):
the West, in South America, but also in Africa, in Australia, in
China, in, in India, in Indonesia, China, in Taiwan, in
the Philippines. In order to maintain this
arrangement, the core states, well, that's South America,
(57:41):
right? The core states must find ways
to suppress sovereign economic development in the South,
Brazil, Argentina. Sovereign development means
southerners begin to escape their subordination, produce
more for themselves, increase their wages, and consume their
own output. Evo Morales was all about that.
(58:04):
This makes resources and inputs more expensive for the core,
which constrains their consumption and makes it more
difficult for them to realize profits.
Hit me with a Ferengi thing. Because that's what this is all
about. Fucking straight up greed for
the for the wealthiest motherfuckers on the planet
(58:24):
already. And a Ferengi without profit.
It's no Ferengi at. All an American without profit,
apparently, is no American at all either.
This is the key point. Economic sovereignty in the
periphery threatens capital accumulation in the core.
To avoid this, the core states must constantly intervene to
(58:45):
prevent or crush any movement orgovernment in the periphery that
seeks National Liberation and economic sovereignty.
When you start looking at it through that lens, things make a
lot more sense. Let me tell you, the US started
to support the Zionist project in the 1960s because they saw
this as a way to have a militaryproxy in the Middle East where
(59:09):
they could stage counter revolutionary interventions
against the Arab social movements and National
Liberation struggles that were gaining traction at the time.
the US could not accept the prospect of sovereign
development. Go ahead.
There was a general, right? What was the general?
He said. We're going to go.
(59:29):
He got a paper on his desk. We're going to go bomb seven
countries. Well, that was Wesley Clark in
2001. That was it, 2002.
But he's talking about in the 60s that the US couldn't accept
the prospect of a sovereign development in the region.
The liberation movements had to be crushed and destabilized, and
(59:50):
they used Israel to help them doit.
Even back in the 60s, Israel hadbeen instrumental has been
instrumental in assassinating liberation leaders in the Arab
region and interfering in the political processes of the Arab
countries. To prevent nationalist and
socialist parties from coming topower, they want to keep that in
(01:00:12):
the religious kind of dictatorships.
That's that's what they prefer. All right is.
So where do we go? I lost my spot.
It is long. It has a long history of
attacking the regional states. I clicked the wrong button.
(01:00:35):
The regional states, Lebanon, Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Egypt,
Yemen, et cetera, half of them are being bombed right now,
destabilizing them and forcing them to divert resources toward
defensive spending instead of industrial development, on top
of the fact that they take out the infrastructure and they're
forced to pay to rebuild that. This is again is in full
(01:00:57):
alignment with US strategy, not only in the Middle East.
Israel has a long history of providing military and
intelligence support to right wing regimes around the world.
For example, Israel armed and supported Argentina's US backed
military hunter which murdered 30,000 socialists and political
(01:01:18):
dissidents. Yes, we did that too.
And Israel armed and assisted the US backed genocide in
Guatemala, training military cadres in techniques of torture
and ethnic cleansing. They train our cops too.
The US supports Israel for the exact same reasons that they've
backed the plotters of assassinations and coups against
(01:01:38):
liberation leaders across the global S since the 50s, which
deposed Mosaddek in Iran and Lumumba in Democratic Republic
of Congo, and the Kruma in Ghana, Allende in Chile and
Arbenz in Guatemala and on and on and on.
(01:01:59):
They do it for the same reason they invaded Vietnam, destroyed
Libya and imposed sanctions on Cuba.
It's the same pattern with the same objectives.
Again, start looking at it through that lens, it becomes
very clear. This is why, well, one reason
why Israel is so despised aroundthe world.
Not only because they're hell bent on ethically cleansing
(01:02:19):
Palestine, but because they intervene everywhere to crush
popular movements and create chaos and instability.
And this is intolerable. Yeah, that's in partnership with
the United States. But yes, though Israel is not an
ally of the US in the conventional sense of the term.
(01:02:39):
It's a proxy force, an attack dog, a partner.
This relationship is particularly useful to the US
because it allows them to have adegree of distance from their
actions and plausible deniability. the US can send
weapons to Israel and directly coordinate military strategy
with them, then claim it's not responsible for the violence and
(01:03:01):
destruction and war crimes that Israel perpetrates in the
region. Literally exactly what we just
saw in Gaza City. We gave them those weapons, we
sold them those weapons. Millions helped the military
plan. We were doing the spy flights.
We showed the spy flights last week that there was a private US
outlet that's outfit that's running Beechcraft spy flights
(01:03:25):
over Khan Yunis on behalf of theBritish government.
The core states use South Africain the same way.
The key reason that Western Power supported the apartheid
regime in South Africa, also against overwhelming
international condemnation, was because it served as a highly
(01:03:47):
militarized Western colonial outpost that was geared to run
up against counterinsurgency operations not only within South
Africa against the ANC and Communist Party.
Remember, the US listed Mandela as a terrorist until 2008, but
also in Angola, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Namibia, the
(01:04:07):
Democratic Republic of Congo, etcetera, causing immense
violence and chaos. Yes, we destabilize a region by
supporting the monsters within it.
The vast majority of the world in international law itself
supports Palestinian liberation.But the US and its main allies
reject this. Why?
(01:04:29):
Because Palestinian liberation would remove a key US proxy and
would open the way to liberationmovements elsewhere in the
region. That's probably the scarier
thing. A liberated Palestine means a
liberated Middle East, and a liberated Middle East at the
hinge of Africa and Asia and Europe is strongly antithetical
(01:04:49):
to the interests of Western capitalism, right?
That's again, yes, Sir, that's correct.
We're protecting capital. That's all we do here.
So this is the situation we're in.
The Western ruling classes are willing to back obscene violence
in Gaza and shred the liberal values they claim to believe in,
(01:05:11):
resulting in the breathtaking displays of hypocrisy because
they want to maintain the conditions for capital
accumulation and geopolitical hegemony.
This Is Us policy. The conditions that the
conditions were in, yeah. Yeah.
Oh yeah, all the hand wringing by Biden in the previous
(01:05:38):
administration, the discourse about too many innocent lives
lost was all theater designed todefuse our outrage.
Under Trump, the veneer concern is just God.
Miriam Adelson bought that concern away.
You cannot appeal. You cannot appeal to imperial
power in moral terms. The only way the US will stop
(01:06:01):
arming funny and propping up theZionist regime is when it
becomes too costly for them to do so.
This will come down to the strength of regional political
and military opposition of whichagain we read in the last
articles about Ukraine. They were trying to weaken
Russia because they are one of the largest political and
(01:06:22):
military opposition's to this. Maybe potentially, but they also
go along with Zionism in Israel quite often.
And Labovich Akabad. Quite often.
The strength of the hate group. They have entire fucking rabbis
in the fucking Nazov. Well, I'm talking about Russia.
(01:06:45):
Russia too, but yeah, the strength of the hate group and
the movement for boycotts, divestment and sanctions, the
strength of punitive measures that can be applied by
international courts, Except Israel and the US doesn't
acknowledge those and is sanctioning them now.
All right, So fuck, fuck Israel for all of that, for the state,
(01:07:08):
for helping the US and CIA destabilize governments.
I had two other things, one of which, Jesus, you know, a lot of
people have written about this and blame Laura Loomer for this
nonsense and calling attention to this.
But it wasn't Laura Loomer, It wasn't Laura Loomer that made
the decision to block this aid. That was the Trump
(01:07:29):
administration and Stephen Miller and whoever the hell else
did it. The Trump admins halt on medical
evacuations from Gaza is a deathsentence for Palestinian
children. Caitlin Johnstone wrote a wrote
an article about this. The best way for an injured
Palestinian child to to get out of Gaza at this point is to mask
(01:07:50):
themselves as an American pedo. All right, sure, the Trump
admin's decision. To be their destiny, if you
will. Hey, Oh.
Hey, oh, or, or a friend named Trey or, or somebody named or a
friend named Tracy, maybe. But the Trump administration's
(01:08:12):
decision to I'm. Going to hate this segment.
All visitor visas for Palestinians from Gaza, which
came after pressure from far right wing activists, will be a
death sentence for children who require life saving medical
treatment. And they've been bringing
Palestinian kids here to to get treatment, which is the least we
(01:08:32):
can fucking do after providing the weapons and arming and
funding the people that did thisto them, right?
Fucking cunts. Fucking cunts. the US State
Department's decision this weekend to halt all visitor
visas for people from Gaza, which includes the medical
humanitarian visas that have brought injured children to
(01:08:54):
American hospitals, will cost Palestinian lives, of which the
State Department does not give aflying fuck.
Officials say this process will be subject to a full and
thorough review. For a child with infected burns
or a deep trauma wound, a pause is a verdict on their life.
The freeze did not arise from new intelligence or any novel
(01:09:16):
identification of problems in a temporary visa pathway.
It occurred via a social media panic, with the circulation of
mischaracterized videos of injured children arriving under
the care of AUS nonprofit being labeled as a security threat,
rhetoric amplified by political allies like Marco Rubio.
(01:09:37):
The State Department then announced it was stopping visas
while it re examines procedures.Because heaven forbid they came
over with their parents and theyweren't separated permanently
because, you know, they don't allow them to ever go back
because there's no right of return.
The racism and misinformation atthe heart of that panic deserve
naming. Some have labeled the process of
(01:09:59):
evacuating children with amputations and burns as
potentially being linked to terrorism, and even characterize
their joyful cries as jihadi chance.
That's textbook dehuman dehumanization.
I don't want to hear George Bushterror for terrorist terrorism.
Take a population fucking terrorterror.
Take a population of wounded kids and code them as a.
(01:10:23):
Tragedy I I got 26 seconds of Bush.
That's right, fuck him, all right?
Fuck him. He's a fucking cunt too, all
right. Take a population of wounded
kids and code them as a threat to justify exclusion.
Many have commented on the chainreaction from such post in the
(01:10:44):
administrative action. The line from the from a viral
smear to a federal policy that blocks chemotherapy, skin
grafts, or prosthetics for children could shame us and the
speed with which it occurred. It also wildly go figure
overstates the scale of what's actually happened.
(01:11:05):
Of course it did, because that fucking cunt is a hysterical
lunatic. In total, many of the Ng OS
running these US transfers report a few dozen total
children to date. Not a flood.
Individual city stories have been about twos and threes.
A pair treated in Dallas. Several children welcomed in
(01:11:26):
Boston. This is the opposite of a large
scale pipeline. It's a narrow, highly vented
corridor. That ex that exists exists
because Gaza's health system hasbeen shattered.
Of course it has intentionally. To understand how few make it
(01:11:48):
here, you have to understand thepathway that these people are
on. 1st a physician in Gaza refers a child for care that no
longer exists at home. The case that goes to a Ministry
of Health committee, then to TheWho for medical triage only
after receiving hospital. Receiving hospital issues a
(01:12:09):
formal acceptance, often after weeks of back and forth with
surgeons, translated records andimaging.
Does the family usually even begin the the the the paper
chase passports, exit permissions from the Israeli
military's coordinator for government activities in the
territories. Yeah, the Gestapo, Jordanian
(01:12:33):
clearances when the bridge routeis used, US visa appointments
and finally awho escorted convoy.
Each step is a separate queue with its own failures and
reversals. A single not yet in any queue
can kill the case. Like the stars need to align.
(01:12:54):
I would call this Unicorn. Jumping on a rainbow and landing
in a pot of gold is literally how these kids made it here and
now they just closed that door too.
The numbers give us a picture ofwhy this corridor matters.
According to WHO and OCHA, as ofmid August, more than 14,800
(01:13:16):
people in Gaza need urgent medical evacuation outside the
Strip right now. Since October 2023, about 7560
patients OK, including more than5200 children, have been
medically evacuated abroad, withmost of the those transfers
(01:13:36):
occurring before Israel's closure of Rafa last year, which
made departures far rarer and slower.
In fact, a 92% decrease was recorded in successful
evacuations thereafter. They basically halted them.
Most of these evacuations happened prior to the closure of
(01:13:56):
the of the Rafa Gate. You mean the blowing up of the
Rafa gate? Rafa Gate.
On August 13th, The Who, right, The Who managed to move 38
patients, 32 of them children. The care options in Belgium,
Italy and Turkey? Not even here.
(01:14:17):
Such operations are far smaller,of course, than the need.
Causing the US share of that global effort may look like a
minor adjustment from Washington.
Yet for an injured child in Gaza, it reads as a door slammed
shut and possibly, probably a death sentence.
Because if it was bad enough that they had to be, it can
hear. Knowing everybody that's there
(01:14:40):
and still suffering it, it's probably pretty fucking bad.
American hospitals have long accepted international charity
cases. Pediatric centers have taken on
many cases from around the worldbecause these are areas where
some US teams are among the bestin the world and where outcomes
can be life changing and transformative.
(01:15:01):
Except that Israel doesn't want these people's lives to be
changed and transformed. They want them dead, right down
to a baby. We see these genocidal lunatics
talking about it on TV daily. Just go to Twitter and look it
up. You can see them if they don't
make it a secret. What happens is, is the western
press tries to white watch this bullshit and act like this isn't
(01:15:23):
really happening because they know nobody would actually
support this nonsense. Now it's only anti Palestinian
racism and Islamophobia that arepreventing U.S. hospitals from
playing a similar role with children from Gaza.
Other countries and regions havebeen accepting far more cases
than the US, just like the refugees that they've been
(01:15:46):
accepting from, you know, from Palestine and Gaza.
West Bank, we take nobody. Since October 2023, the top five
referral destinations have been Egypt, the UAE, Qatar, Turkey
and EU countries. How come those Arab states won't
take their own in? Remember that's the narrative
(01:16:07):
that comes in by by the Zionists.
Well, Egypt, the UAE, Qatar, allof are Arab nations, aren't
they? The cases include children with
trauma wounds, patients with cancer, congenital anomalies,
cardiovascular issues, and even ophthalmology related needs.
Because God, you don't have any freaking eye testing equipment
(01:16:31):
anywhere left in Gaza at this point.
They blew it all up. The past way is in fact fraught
with ethical dilemmas. Children are frequently
separated from their caregivers or loved ones.
Families are separated or torn apart as some relatives are
denied exit approval, often the men by Israel, leaving others to
(01:16:52):
stay behind also so they can potentially threaten or torture
those people if those people arenot returned or monitored or
whatever it is that Israel wants.
We've bet such families and children who've come to the US
have heard from their stories and the trauma they've endured,
the physical scars and the psychological ones and the ones
(01:17:13):
that can't even be named. What should happen now is
simple. First, immediately reinstate the
processing of medical humanitarian visas for children
and their companions. Second, we should push towards
affirming the right of return for these children.
Many families fear never being able to return to Gaza after
(01:17:34):
accepting treatment abroad, withsome even choosing to stay in
Gaza out of such fears. Third, restoration of medical
corridors for Palestinian patients in Gaza to occupied E
Jerusalem and the wider occupiedWest Bank, so that they do not
need to leave their country and homeland just for treatment, if
it is available. Of course, Israel will never
(01:17:57):
allow that. Finally, stop letting demagogues
dictate whether a Palestinian child gets to live.
The moral bar here is not too high, but apparently that's too
high for the US and Israel. How sad that the government in
Washington can be spurred by a bad faith tweet to close a
lifeline for children. Any shred of decency as
(01:18:19):
Americans should compel us to reopen it.
Fuck Israel. Support Mondo Weiss for writing
that article. All right, Indy Media Award
honoree. They're one of the best outlets
that report on Palestine regularly.
All right, this was Bilal Rufan Palestine, and unless it's the
(01:18:39):
Liga. OK, this was also another really
important story that I wanted toget into.
Looks like we're probably not going to have a chance to get
the some of this stuff. Wow.
We didn't get the London or Venezuela yet.
This would be a long show. Or, I don't know, We'll maybe
we'll pick it up tomorrow night.Whatever.
Reuters journalists. Reuters journalists accusing the
(01:19:01):
newswire, their own company, of pro Israel bias.
Yeah, how about that? All right, so this comes out of
another indie media award honoree, Declassified UK.
They've restaffed and they're doing some great work right now.
And they have an exclusive year.Insiders at the world's largest
(01:19:23):
news agency reveal their battleswith management over covering
Palestine. I don't know how much they've
even really battled, but they'veactually gone public with it.
So that tells me that it's been an issue.
So it says that when Israel assassinated Palestinian
journalist Anas Al Sharif earlier this month.
(01:19:45):
And again, we covered that on the show with his colleagues.
The Reuters news agency ran a report titled Israel kills Al
Jazeera journalist it says was Hamas leader, which it wasn't.
They chose that headline despitethe fact that Al Sharif used to
work for them. He was part of a Reuters team
(01:20:06):
that won a 2024 Pulitzer. Instances like this caused a
backlash online, but also sparked concern among some staff
at the influential Global News wire.
Which was founded in London in 1851 and now has a daily
audience of more than a billion people.
(01:20:26):
The biggest disseminator of propaganda worldwide.
Multiple Reuters employees have spoken and declassified about
what they see as pro Israel biasamong the company's editors and
management. Yeah, I would say so.
All requested anonymity to avoidreprisals.
Again, no surprise. Another, a desk editor resigned
(01:20:51):
around August 2024, telling colleagues in an e-mail, quote,
recovering what we call the Israel Hamas war.
I've realized that my values don't allow what those of the
company. In the e-mail they also said,
quote, I've attached a report, an open letter some colleagues
and I sent to management in the hopes that Reuters will uphold
(01:21:11):
some basic journalistic principles.
But I now recognize that senior leadership is unlikely to
change, must let much less stop actively stifling critiques.
Heather Carpenter, a senior director of communications at
Reuters, declined to declassify that the company ever received
this letter. Of course they did.
(01:21:31):
Plausible deniability. However, a Reuters source told
Declassified Quote a few weeks after the October 7th attack,
several journalists at Reuters recognized that our coverage of
the Israel Gaza war lacked objectivity.
In response, a group of journalists, while working full
time, undertook A comprehensive internal investigation,
(01:21:54):
conducting both quantitative andqualitative analysis of our
reporting. The findings form the basis of
an open letter which was shared internally to identify and
connect journalists within The Newsroom who are committed to
strengthening Reuters journalismon Gaza.
Their their internal study, seenby Declassified can't deny this
(01:22:17):
analyzed 499 reports tagged as Israel Palestine published
between October 7th and November14th, 2023.
They found and this this is going to shock you.
I know a consistent pattern of assigning more resources to
covering stories affecting Israelis as opposed to
(01:22:37):
Palestinians at the time of their down.
And remember that Israel has also murdered Reuters
journalists in Lebanon at the time of their analysis.
Or maybe it was Syria, over 11, or both.
Over 11,000 Palestinians in Gazahad been reportedly killed,
(01:22:59):
around 10 times the number of Israeli fatalities.
The latest? A lot of stuff happens that the
news won't tell you and that they knew that they were
innocent civilians. The latest death toll as per the
Gaza Ministry of Health is nearly 62,000.
The actual numbers are expected to be about 3 times higher at
least. A further question why Reuters
(01:23:22):
had not reported more on claims by experts that Israel was
committing genocide in Gaza. Interesting it with how the news
wire approached such allegationsabout Russia's conduct in
Ukraine. It's authors also complained
that one clear cut example of how our wording implies bias is
in our choice to prohibit the use of the word Palestine.
(01:23:44):
While Palestine might not be recognized as a state in sub
Western countries, we don't needto pretend that it's not a real
place. Reuters management did not
respond to declassified questions about whether any
recommendations from the internal study had been
accepted. Why does that not surprise me?
Again, here is some of the stuffthat they had recommended right
(01:24:12):
by May of this year, however, there were some signs of changes
to the style guide, which reflected the earlier internal
criticism. Reuters Global News desk editor
for Quality and Style Howard S Gohler sent an e-mail with
subject Reuters style update on the conflict in the Middle East.
Again, whitewashing it right there by not calling it a
(01:24:33):
massacre. Nobody is firing back in Israel
at this point. The update allows Reuters
journalists to use the word genocide with attribution, but
still limits the term Palestine for references to historic
Palestine from antiquity to 1948.
You can't call it occupied Palestine.
(01:24:56):
Even with the looser restrictions on the term
genocide, Declassifieds analysisfound that Reuters went on to
use the word in just 14 of 300 reports on its quote, UN quote,
Israel and Hamas at war page between June 21st and August
7th. And there's the there it is
(01:25:16):
charted out just how few word times the word genocide has
mentioned versus not mentioned. Out of 300 articles not
mentioned in 286 of them, terms such as war campaign, conflict
escalation and assault were commonly used instead when
(01:25:36):
genocide was mentioned, it's nearly always with Israel's
denial, a practice not afforded to other belligerents such as
UAE backed Rapid Support Forces in Sudan or Russia.
The double standard in the coverage of the Gaza genocide
and other crimes against humanity.
And it's not just Reuters, it's been New York Times and The
(01:25:57):
Associated Press and the Telegraph and the Daily Wire,
daily everything or a Daily Caller.
It's been flagged by the internal staff in the above
mentioned study. OK, Doctor Asal Rod, big fan of
hers, scholar of Middle East history known as the headline
fixer on social media told Declassified quote.
(01:26:21):
The pattern you note is essentially genocide denial.
She added that Reuters frames Israel's atrocities in Gaza as
part of an ongoing war military campaign rather than calling it
a genocide, despite the consensus among human rights
experts and international institutions that have concluded
Israel is committing A genocide.But yet these are the
(01:26:46):
descriptions. Usually they call it war or
military campaign. The e-mail quoted sections of
the stuff from the style guide titled Gaza War 2023 to Present
and broader context, which provide details from primarily
from Israel's perspective. Ah, go figure.
(01:27:08):
The updated sections seen by Declassified do not mention
crucial details such as the roleof the US and Israel in
sabotaging ceasefire negotiations.
They completely omit Israel's illegal settler colonialism and
apartheid, and significantly, onthe report on the extent of
destruction in Palestine. For example, the May 27th
(01:27:30):
Handbook update fails to cite The Lancet's finally findings
that it's not implausible to estimate that up to 186,000 or
even more deaths could be attributable to the current
conflict in Gaza, right? The update also neglects the
fact that Gaza has become the deadliest conflict zone for
journalists since the US Civil War in 1861 / 230 of them so
(01:27:55):
far. Last year.
In August, former UN human rights lawyer Craig Mockber
wrote for Mondo Weiss after he resigned from the UN over this
quote. It's simply not credible to
suggest that Western media companies are not aware of the
realities on the ground and of what they're doing to obscure
them. They have indisputably made
(01:28:17):
conscious choices to hide the genocide from their audiences
who systemically, systematicallydehumanize the Palestinian
victims and to insulate the Israeli perpetrators of
accountability. Why?
More recently, in May, writing for Haaretz, Israeli journalist
(01:28:38):
Gideon Levy said, quote, a courageous, decent media scene
could have prevented this military operation, but we
barely have anything like that, A Reuters spokesperson told
Declassified They believe their coverage has been fair and
impartial, in keeping with the Thomson Reuters Trust
Principles. As long as that means defense of
(01:29:00):
Israel, sure, right? As in many newsrooms, our
coverage of the war has come under close scrutiny, including
by our own journalists, and we faced feedback from multiple
places. Sounds like a lot of bullshit to
me. So fuck Israel, Fuck Reuters and
the newswire services. Reuters and The Associated Press
(01:29:24):
corporate media that republishesthis nonsense uncritically and
without edit on a regular basis.I've been calling this out for
years. These wire services push CIA and
and State Department propaganda almost daily, and it's the
fastest way for propaganda to bepushed globally across every
(01:29:49):
major media outlet that people consider most people consider to
be credible. We know for a fact that they are
not credible and that they've been taken over and serve
corporate interests and the wealthy, but most people have
not figured that out yet. All right.
(01:30:09):
Fuck Israel again cunts. That's I don't know what we're
up to here on, but the cunt counters should be should be up
there. So we're not going to get re
monetized by YouTube for that. It's almost 1130.
Wow, been ranting for an hour and a half about Ukraine and and
just Israel. We still have what the crap
that's going on in London, people getting arrested.
(01:30:30):
All right, and then we can talk about Venezuela.
Venezuela is a long segment again.
I may want to come back tomorrownight if you're able to, and it
means please fund the media you want to see.
The ways to do that are with Cash App, Dollar sign, Indie

We really appreciate those 2GO follow Aaron Paul against

That's for the the network. So by all means, go check that
(01:31:16):
out. Go sign up and go connect with
everyone that that supports. Fuck Israel that that movement
for sure. All right now I also wanted to
get into London. Oh my goodness, this is some
crazy shit here. Now again, not always the
biggest fan of these people, butthis guy does some pretty good
(01:31:37):
stuff. The people who hung this batter
outside Labor headquarters have been arrested and will face
trial in the UK in January. These are the extreme Orwellian
measures that Western governments must take to
normalize Israel's genocide and war crimes.
Ready for this? They dropped a banner across a
(01:32:01):
building. Yep, they draped a banner across
scaffolding. Clearly that's that's violence.
Indeed, clearly, clearly, that'sviolence.
I think this might even be the street.
That banners are violence. That doctor Hossam Abu Safia
walked in, walked down to climb into that tank.
(01:32:21):
It feels like right about there.I remember that footage like it
was yesterday, but they got prosecuted for hanging this
fucking batter. It's it's so far over the top
you're. So it could be easily fucking
taken down. Someone's a like OK Yep, like 0
(01:32:43):
destruction of property. All right, but worse, this is a
2 minute and 22nd video of a retired male nurse in London who
was arrested for holding a sign.And let's let's check this one
out. Before we do that, let's go to
switching slideshow office, OK? I'm being arrested for holding
(01:33:16):
up a placard which says I opposegenocide and I support Palestine
action. This isn't just about Palestine
action, this is about freeing the British legal system from
the oppression of the Zionist lobby.
I've witnessed the genocide in Palestine and that is what this
is really about. This is really about covering up
(01:33:37):
the genocide. This thank you very much.
This is about the British government covering up a
genocide. A blatant genocide of nearly
6,000,000 beautiful Muslim people.
We need to free up our country from the oppression of the
Zionist lobby. Neoliberal capitalism is the
biggest threat the world has ever seen.
(01:34:00):
And tried to scrub this whole video off the Internet by the
way. I oppose genocide and I support
Palestine action in their actions to bring the world's
awareness and to stop the genocide in Palestine.
Five times I worked in Palestineas an emergency medic, 4 times
in Khaza, I was in Khaza in the last Nakba.
(01:34:21):
I witnessed things there. After 30 years of work in
emergency, I witnessed things inKhaza that broke me as a man and
the people of Palestine put me back together.
They are warm, welcoming, hospitable Muslim people.
They they're a strong, resilientpeople.
And this is not being done in myname.
We need to free Britain from theoppression of the Zionist lobby.
(01:34:44):
We need to free Britain from theoppression of neoliberal
capitalism. Britain isn't Britain anymore.
Britain is an owned country whenit comes to a point where
they're arresting emergency medics and arresting retired
medics and doctors for holding up a piece of paper with words
on it, whereas they sell weaponsthat kill people from outer
(01:35:04):
space. I've seen I've seen drones
burning children in their beds and they were provided by this
country. No other country.
They were British made. This is a proxy British
Americano genocide. Absolutely.
Good for you dude. Dude hearing it right from the
(01:35:28):
mouth of a guy. Leave Lee Evans, OK?
He's been there in the trenches and you're going to deny him the
right to speak? Fuck you.
Fuck Israel for that. And.
Fuck you. Fuck Britain.
Just to show how captured they are again, we go back to Indy
Media Award honoree DeclassifiedUK.
(01:35:49):
You can't see the logo there, but it's there all right.
John McAvoy, who's one of the managing editors now, and this
was from June 25th of last year,just to remind people how Israel
funds the UK parliamentary staff.
So they've infiltrated folks, right?
Israel has paid for at least a dozen UK parliamentary staff to
(01:36:12):
visit the country on special delegations in the last five
years. Of further 18 staffers have
accepted funding or hospitality from a pro Israel lobby
organizations in Britain such asLabour, Friends of Israel and We
Believe in Israel. Several worked for MPs in Kid
Starver, I mean Keir Starmer's front bench team, including
(01:36:35):
shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves,shadow health Secretary W
Streeting and shadow Education secretary Bridget Bridget
Phillipson. I believe Rachel Reeves now may
be home secretary. Our investigation found how the
Israeli lobby, Israeli Embassy in London, its Ministry of
(01:36:59):
Foreign Affairs and associated lobby groups seek to influence
not only members of Parliament, but also their assistance
because those are the people that actually get the work done.
Declassified were previously revealed that one in four
British MPs in the last parliament accepted funding from
pro Israel lobby groups or individuals.
(01:37:20):
So it's not just happening here.And I didn't even realize that
they were allowed to buy off staff like that.
That was legal. Like it's illegal for a foreign
government technically to pay off a lawmaker here, so they
whitewash it through American companies, right?
(01:37:40):
But really they can just fund stuff for staffers.
The Israeli embassy in London funded 10 staff members of Tory
MPs to visit Israel and a Young Conservative political leaders
delegation in 2022. They worked for MPs such as
Stephen Crabb, Nicola Richards and Bob Bob Blackman, all of
(01:38:03):
whom are closely associated withConservative Friends of Israel.
No surprise. Again, all these lobbying groups
are just not paying this money. Labor Friends of Israel, No.
Although they basically serve the same purpose, one of the
staffers, Simon Phipps, is now aConservative candidate for
Birmingham Selly Oak. The trip involved meeting with
(01:38:28):
government officials and businesses in Israel as part of
Auk delegation. The visit was declared in a in
an obscure parliamentary database called the Register of
Interests of Members, Secretaries and Research
Assistants. It contains little information
about what the staffers did in Israel or who they met.
(01:38:49):
All data prior to 2018 has been destroyed in line with official
regulations. How convenient.
OK, so this is an interesting story.
I just wanted to bring that because it was it, it went back
a little bit, but it's important.
Here's the European Leadership Network.
That's another organization thatbrought people to to Israel.
(01:39:16):
El Net was funded by Dole Forman, a staffer for Tory MP
Robert Jenrick to go on a solidarity trip to Israel amid
the genocidal war on Gaza. Whitewashing trip.
All right, when other funders, we believe in Israel again, this
this is last year and they're still doing this shit.
So again, I wanted to go back and bring that up and
(01:39:39):
declassified to point out some of the ways that they were
buying off British lawmakers then.
Now on a positive note, you havethis, this Irish writer, God
bless the Irish, Sally Rooney, another one who says I support
Palestine action. If this makes me a terror, a
supporter of terror under UK law, so be it.
(01:40:01):
She also announced that she was going to donate the proceeds
from her book to funding and supporting Palestine action.
Terrorism used to be when you killed people.
Now terrorism is when you try tostop people being killed.
Ayuba Ahmad, you should definitely follow him too.
And then finally, Professor David Miller wrote this article.
(01:40:22):
This is a really short one, but he's been calling out Jeremy
Corbyn. Oh, Jeremy Corbyn.
Jeremy Corbyn, Why? Didn't somebody tell me that my
screen was messed up here? Let's turn the slideshow back
on. There you go, I.
Don't know. I didn't notice that till just
now. You saw the rest of my screen
(01:40:43):
there folks. All.
Right. David Miller wrote this article.
Now your party is the new thing that's emerging that was
founded, Co founded by Zara, Zara Sultana who left the Labour
Party and Jeremy Corbyn. And they're trying to get
together a group and allegedly they have over 300,000 people
(01:41:04):
who have pledged their support for 3,000,000.
They're bigger than the Labour Party right now.
So David Miller's been looking into exactly what their policies
are going to be. Are they just going to be like a
neoliberal light? Because Corbin has had issues,
especially on 2 State Solution. So he says, I'm told that your
(01:41:25):
party has now named seven members in a presumably interim
executive committee. He says.
I'm able to share the names in the official positions of three
of the seven which are listed inthe internal documents.
They are Amy Jackson, once a political secretary at LOTO and
unites director of politics, nowhead of executive team.
(01:41:49):
Well, what's unite? We'll get to that in a minute.
Harry Murphy, ex chief of staff at LOTO.
What is LOTO? We'll get to that.
Forced out after shenanigans with John McDonnell now back in
charge of conference and event planning.
Again, this is electoral stuff, but they're trying to form a
third party. What's happening is that this is
(01:42:09):
the same tried and failed incompetent clique that brought
down the first Corbin project out of cowardice.
They capitulated to the Board ofDeputies and the Israel lobby
last time believing in A2 state solution.
Specifically this guy James Schneider, right?
He's, he worked for, yeah, he worked for LOTO, but also
(01:42:33):
Progressive International in thePeace and Justice Project.
Who's he married to here? Starmer's press secretary.
Now we know that Keir Starmer undermined Corbin and smeared
him with that entire anti, you know, called him an anti Semite
for standing up for Palestine. Even though Corbin tepidly
(01:42:56):
supports A2 state solution, though he has been strongly in
support of the Palestinian people, but being married to
Keir Starmer's press secretary and working under Corbin's new
party that's inviting the snake into your garden, he was the
central. He was central to the disastrous
Labor push to accept the IHRA definition of anti-Semitism
(01:43:21):
against the will of the members and to the strategy of
apologizing and throwing anti Zionists under the bus.
His new title is a mouthful comms inclusive of mainstream
media, social media, speechwriter, spokesperson,
supporter, comms. That's every.
Everything that's the entire message is on this guy's
(01:43:42):
shoulders. They betrayed the will of the
mass membership and turbochargedthe witch hunt.
Now history risks repeating. They're trying to get this.
This reminds me of of Jeff Weaver joining Bernie Sanders
campaign in 2020, right? Of the Foxes joining the head
(01:44:03):
House of Peter Dow, joining the Marianne Williamson campaign in
2024. All right.
They're sending. Their known hatchet men.
For some reason Corbin and whoever is accepting these
fucking morons all right, And David Miller is standing up and
trying to tag these people and be like, what are you doing?
(01:44:26):
A handful of tried and tested failures could once again
squander a movement of 800,000 decent Britons.
But that's their whole intent now isn't it?
It's essential, it's essential that anyone who has a voice in
this process intervenes now, whoensure that the whole project is
(01:44:46):
not strangled at birth by the same team that hung thousands of
anti Zionist Labour members out to dry last time and capitulated
to the Zionist movement. And he's tagging the leaders of
this new your party YPYP. Also is is your problem though?
That's not so much that I like, but OK.
(01:45:08):
So again, we we likely will not be re monetized by YouTube for
calling out the Corbin party fornot being pro Palestine enough
and for potentially allowing a pro cure Star Wars snake in
their garden. So if you're able to at a means,

Although I am now sharing some older INN newsletter content to
Indy Media Today subscribers this week because I realized
(01:46:12):
most of the people there had notsubscribed and had never seen
these articles. So I'm re sharing them with a
different audience to give it some new life.
Specifically the pieces about Breaking Points and even the
segment that I did last year with Colin on INN News about the
infiltration of independent media by corporate media and
(01:46:34):
citing many different examples there of, of what we're talking
about. Right?
All right, I did want to get to Venezuela.
I know it's it's getting close to midnight.
We'll have a lightning round andwe're going to get the boat
smashing in other boats, I promise.
But we made it to Venezuela. So what's happening in
Venezuela? We talked about it briefly in
the lightning round last week. Dave decampantiwar.com and Dave
(01:47:00):
has he's done it again. Dirty bastard.
Now we love Dave Dekamp anti warnews.
He is an indie media award honoree, one of the best of the
best of the best. Big fan of Dave's.
All right. Trump administration deploys 3
U.S. Navy destroyers and 4000 troops
near Venezuela. Yes, we want the oil.
(01:47:22):
And I'm going to get to an article written by somebody
sitting in the audience right now.
I believe Descent in Bloom who wrote all about did a great
piece on Venezuela that's reallylong.
Trump admin deploys 3 U.S. Navy destroyers and 4000 troops.
the US appears to be moving toward another regime change
effort against Maduro under unsubstantiated claims that he's
(01:47:44):
leader of a cartel. Last year they tried to
undermine his election, which they even allowed after
sanctions had been there. Again, descent and bloom, we'll
talk about that. the US is deploying 3 Navy destroyers off
the coast of Venezuela in a moveaimed at pressuring President
Nicolas Maduro, signaling what appears to be another push for
(01:48:06):
regime change, one official toldReuters.
Remember the propagandists for the world that a total of 4000
US sailors and Marines are expected to be committed to the
Trump administration's efforts in the southern Caribbean
region. I remember very clearly that
Whitney Webb, before Trump took office, said that what they were
likely going to do, and I remember Fiorella and, and Eva
(01:48:28):
and Vanessa were mentioning thatthey were speculating Trump was
going to bring a lot of the troops back to the Western
Hemisphere and focus mostly on Western Hemisphere control.
And this is perfect. Between this border control and
Mexico is perfectly in line withwhat they were talking about.
U.S. officials say the deployment is an effort to
(01:48:50):
combat threats from Latin American drug cartels.
Quote UN quote, as the US has made the unsubstantiated
complaint claim that Maduro is the leader of a cartel.
The accusation goes back to the first Trump administration when
then Attorney General Bill Barr indicted the Venezuelan leader
over claims of narco terrorism, which was again, really just
(01:49:12):
about the oil. And remember, they tried to to
displace Maduro and replace him with the the infamous Juan
Guaido. All right.
The claim was made over alleged cocaine trafficking, even though
data showed at the time that thevast majority of cocaine coming
into the US went through the Eastern Pacific rather than
(01:49:33):
Venezuela's Caribbean waters. All right.
Also Colombia. White House Press Secretary
Caroline Leavitt was asked on Tuesday about the deployments
near Venezuela and if the US wasconsidering putting boots on the
ground in the country. I hope not, Leavitt replied.
(01:49:53):
President Trump has been very clear and consistent.
He's prepared to use every element of American power to
stop drugs from flooding into our country, at least ones that
we don't allow ourselves, and tobring those responsible to
justice. The Maduro regime is not a
according to her, it's not the legitimate government of
Venezuela. Except that they were duly
(01:50:14):
elected last year and only Edison Research in any the USAID
funded outlet is the only worldwide outlet that claims so.
And they haven't been able to produce the receipts for that.
Again, she's claiming that it's a narco terror cartel.
And Maduro, it's the view of this administration, is not a
(01:50:35):
legitimate president. He's a fugitive head of this
cartel and he has been indicted in the United States for
trafficking drugs into the country.
Really. Maduro himself trafficking
drugs, R&R. Not the drugs.
The Trump administration has taken other steps that signal
another attempt at regime changein Venezuela, including
(01:50:57):
increasing the bounty amadero from 25,000,000 to 50 million
and labeling cartels specially designated global terrorists.
I've heard that before, including Cartel de Los Solas, a
term used to describe an allegednetwork of Venezuelan officials
involved in drug trafficking that doesn't actually exist as
(01:51:18):
an organization. Almost like Palestine Action at
this point. the US designated the so-called Cartel de les
Solas over claims that it supports the Venezuelan gang
Rende Aragua and Mexico's Sinaloa Cartel.
Of course it doesn't. However, a recently declassified
(01:51:40):
U.S. Intelligence memo said it was
unlikely that Maduro's government cooperates with or
directs TDA, and Mexican President Claudia Scheinbaum has
denied that there's any evidencelinking.
Maduro get. Your Scheinbaum to Sinaloa, No
neck, no link between Maduro andSinaloa.
(01:52:00):
The memo from the Office of the Director of Intelligence, right,
dated April 7th, said that whilesome members of the Venezuelan
government may tolerate or cooperate with TDA, Maduro and
his top officials view the groupas a threat.
They're not in favor of them. The Maduro regime probably does
not have a policy of cooperatingwith TDA and is not directing
(01:52:23):
TDA movement to and operations in the United States.
That's coming from the DNI themselves.
I think that's a woman named Tulsi Gabbard.
Earlier this month, Get Your Shine Bound told reporters that
the US announcement about Maduro's alleged ties to Sinaloa
was the first she had heard about it.
(01:52:43):
Of course it was on Mexico's part.
There is no investigation that has to do with that.
As we always say, if there is, they have some evidence, show
it. We do not have any proof.
Maduro said on Monday that in response to threats from the
Trump administration, he's goingto deploy millions of members of
a pro government militia across the country.
(01:53:06):
Well, this week I'll activate a special plan with more than four
and a half million militia men who ensure coverage of the
entire national territory militias that are prepared,
activated and armed. He's saying fuck around and find
out on our turf. While the Trump administration
has taken steps to add pressure on Maduro, it's also recently
(01:53:28):
reversed the ban on Chevron pumping oil in Venezuela.
And Venezuelan oil is now on itsway to the US.
How about that? Speaking of which, again, our
friend Descent in Bloom, the Trump admin is planning an
American takeover of Venezuela. Very plain, very simple.
(01:53:52):
For more great takes on this, again, follow Arturo Dominguez
at Decolonized Journalism. But this again, is an
outstanding article. Military on their shoreline.
Sanctions, deportations and oil deals are pushing Venezuela
toward American takeover. When American says freedom, it
means oil. It's been a few weeks freedom.
(01:54:16):
It's been a few months since Trump stood on that stage and
promised to retake the Panama Canal from China.
At the time, it sounded absurd. It still does. the US handed
control of the canal back to Panama in 1999, by the way.
China doesn't run it. That was that was another lie
from Trump, but the corporate media ran with it like.
(01:54:37):
Dumb shit. Right.
Corporate media ran with it likeit was a serious policy, yes,
pumping out headlines that made it seem like America had lost
something to China that needed to be reclaimed while everyone
was busy. Arguing we're going to we're
going to get back Alcatraz. We're going to rebuild Alcatraz.
No, they just decided to build one in in the swamp.
(01:54:57):
And by the way that. Got a new one somewhere else?
Right, they got deemed that theyhave to take that one down now
too. But while everyone was busy
arguing over that fiction, the real move was happening off
camera when BlackRock, the massive investment firm, quietly
signed a $22.8 billion deal to take over the ports at both ends
(01:55:18):
of the canal. They, they didn't need to buy
the entire canal, but they bought the gates.
That's all that mattered becauseif you control the gates, then
you control who gets in and getsout.
And in the end, Trump got his win in the media and the
Panamanian people got screwed, and Black Rock got their
throttle on global trade. As she reminds us, the Panama
(01:55:41):
Canal is one of the most important trade routes in the
world. But this goes beyond Panama.
It's about Wall Street trying tocontrol global trade routes in
order to control the world. Roughly 3/4 of the ships that
pass through the canal are tied to U.S. trade.
And now that Black Rock controlsthe ports at both ends, American
corporations can now decide who gets to move goods, including
(01:56:04):
oil. And the next target is
Venezuela. Why?
What most people think of oil, they think in the Middle East.
But see, Venezuela actually has the world's largest oil reserve.
Their economy is doing poorly, but it's not because they don't
have resources. It's because of us. the US knows
about their oil. Trump knows.
(01:56:25):
And the Trump's administration is making damn sure only one
company, Nevron, gets the profitfrom it.
At least until he can. Until he can't.
As of today, they are the only company that the US has allowed
to export any Venezuelan oil at all.
As you heard Dave Dekamp mentioned, like in the world
(01:56:49):
now, they're importing it into the US with the first oil tanker
since April arriving just days ago.
Meanwhile, every other country in the world gets slapped with a
25% tariff if they even try. All thanks to this executive
order quietly signed by Trump inMarch that states if you import,
Venezuelan oil will come after you.
(01:57:10):
So as you can see, we're alreadyusing the trade market as a
weapon. Read the rest of this article.
And once you obtain this knowledge, I want you to take a
moment to really think about howbleak this could all get right.
This is a map of the world oil reserves according to OPEC in
2013. And notice that Venezuela is the
(01:57:32):
darkest spot on the in the world.
So I know what you're thinking. What makes Chevron so special?
Who are they compared to? The oil execs in Trump's
financial sugar daddy book. And remember also prior
previously that Trump's very first Secretary of State was a
guy by the name of Rex Tillerson, who was the CEO of
(01:57:54):
Exxon Mobil. He has never been one to shy
away from working closely with oil companies and realized that
oil companies really control a lot of the global trade inflow.
In 2025. Chevron isn't just riding
shotgun at Trump's presidency, it's Co Driving the millions it
poured into his inauguration fund wasn't charity.
(01:58:16):
It was a contract. It was an investment.
Chevron bankrolls Trump blends policy in their favor.
See, Trump at first yanked Chevron's license along with
everyone else to export oil fromVenezuela, then reinstated it in
July with a rigged twist that left Chevron as the sole foreign
player allowed to pump and export oil to the US.
(01:58:39):
How convenient. The only profit going to Chevron
here because the caveat was thatthey couldn't pay Venezuela for
the oil, so they had to barter it somehow.
From there, the company synced itself to Trump's entire
political theater. It partnered with engine #1 and
GE Vernova to build gas fired power foundries for the AI boom,
(01:59:05):
and even parroted Trump's renaming of the Gulf of Mexico
to the Gulf of America without hesitation.
How embarrassing. So no, this isn't just oil
policy. It's state corporate fusion.
There's another word for that. Where the White House, BlackRock
and Chevron write the rules together, creating democracy for
(01:59:25):
dominance, all while setting Venezuela up to be the next
domino to fall. That lays out the chess board.
So Trump, of course, has been saying it.
We're going to take the oil. Is this about Syria?
They say he left troops in Syria.
You know what I did? I left troops to take the oil.
I took the oil. The only troops I have are
taking the oil. They're protecting the oil.
(01:59:47):
I took our taking oil. We're not taking well, maybe we
will, maybe we won't. They're protecting the facility.
I don't know, maybe we should take it.
But we. Have Maybe we'll break it.
Well, maybe we won't. Nice country you got there.
Be a shame if something happenedto it.
Be a real shame of something that has happens to it.
Which the US has done time and time again in so many other
(02:00:09):
countries. This is what we do every time we
liberate a country from a dictator.
Studies have found that countries with large oil
reserves are more likely to suffer wars and foreign military
interventions. Shocker.
Yet we brought that Jason Hickelarticle that confirms and
validates that this isn't any different. the US has been
(02:00:29):
actively destabilizing Venezuelasince the 1920s to try to gain
control over their oil reserves too.
Documents show that back as early as the start of this
century, we've been feeding money to help Venezuela's
opposition army enacted democracy with a new leader, of
course, a leader chosen by the United States.
(02:00:51):
Reminders of Mosaddegh and and Iran and the Shah, of course.
Right? In fact, it's happened multiple
times. First in 1945.
Bush tried it in 2002 and Trump tried in 2019.
That's actually when the currentsanctions in place initially
started against Venezuela. Had he tried a different coup
(02:01:14):
tactic against Venezuela in 2019and failed?
Or he had tried and now he's using the tried and true method,
doing the exact same thing the US did to Iran in the 1950s
under Operation Ajax. You ever hear about how the US
destabilized the Middle East? This is how Interestingly she
(02:01:36):
she notes when Joe Biden took office in 2021, he never
rescinded that those Trump placesanctions.
But in 2022, he did give Chevronthe 1st special license to
export oil from there under thempriorities, am I right?
And I believe wasn't Chevron, the organization that Steve
(02:01:56):
Donzinger was suing for poisoning the indigenous people
down there in Brazil? I think so.
I don't know about Brazil, but pretty sure.
Maybe it was Colombia. Now, the entire purpose of
sanctions and now tariffs is to hurt Venezuela's economy,
(02:02:18):
putting them in a position to topple Maduro's regime.
They want that damn oil, and they're not giving up.
That's what the murder walrus wanted in 2019.
You know of John Bolton? He had a bit of a rough week, I
heard right. This has been what's happening,
as we've all been scratching ourheads at the erratic policies,
executive orders, the manufactured trade chaos, the
(02:02:40):
bizarre fixation on retaking things that were never ours in
the 1st place. But see, this entire thing isn't
random. It's a strategy, one that merges
corporate power, foreign policy and resource extraction into a
single machine, giving the US more money at the expense of
innocent people. It begins with the letter F.
(02:03:04):
These sanctions and tariffs don't just squeeze Maduro, they
crush ordinary Venezuelans. Again, the point of sanctions.
the US has been the single biggest driver of the
humanitarian crisis tearing thiscountry apart.
A not so fun fact, Trump's fightwith China isn't about Spicer
ideology, it's oil. By mid 2025, China was buying
(02:03:30):
over 90% of Venezuela's crude thanks to Trump's tariffs and
sanctions. Washington pretends it's about
democracy, but the truth is their theory is that China keeps
bankrolling the country they want to collapse.
That's why hundreds of thousandsfled here, only to be sent back
by Trump to the same collapsing country.
(02:03:51):
They escaped not for border control, but for
destabilization. It's a tactic.
Think back to Trump's recent relegation revocation of
temporary protected status for Venezuelans.
It wasn't about immigration. It was about weaponizing people
as leverage, stripping protections from 350,000
(02:04:16):
Venezuelans. I remember we reported on that.
Forcing deportations, funneling them into Secot, and even
twisting the Alien Enemies Act. It was all deliberate.
The plan was simple. Overwhelm Venezuela's fragile
system with returnees, crank up the pressure and push the
country closer to collapse. Every deportation wasn't just
(02:04:38):
cruelty. It was a chess move in the
larger game to topple the government and hand the oil
fields to US corporations. As you read this, our military
is already closing in on this Venezuelan crisis right?
U.S. military again on the coastof Venezuela, the Iwo Jima, the
(02:05:01):
San Antonio and the Fort Lauderdale to join 3 guided
missile destroyers already there.
As reported by Anti War on Border 4500 service members
including a Marine Expeditionaryunit with 2200 troops ready to
deploy. Remember that Maduro said he was
deploying 4.5 million to the streets to secure the borders
(02:05:25):
2200 troops? That doesn't sound like very
much. Officially it's a counter
narcotics mission as we pointed out.
In reality, it's the muscle behind everything that she's
just laid out. Trump labeled Maduro and his
allies Larco terrorists, raised the $50 million bounty on his
head and slapped sanctions designed to break the economy.
(02:05:48):
Now the Navy gives him the threat of boots on the ground to
make it all real. Also, to enforce a blockade,
Maduro has responded by mobilizing more than four and a
half million militia members andrallying allies in Cuba,
Bolivia, Nicaragua, who are warned warning that Washington's
drug war is just a cover for intervention.
(02:06:10):
Strip away the labels and the propaganda and you can see it
clearly. BlackRock locks down the gates
in Panama. Kevron locks down the oil in
Venezuela. The military locks down the
coastline. It's one machine moving In Sync,
and Trump supplying the show while corporations cash in and
(02:06:31):
ordinary people pay the price. Of course, we know about
America's pick from Maduro's replacement because our friend
Golden Monarch has been talking about her for a while.
If Trump had succeeded in 2019, the administration's chosen
leader would have been someone to line the pockets of his rich
friends with even more oil money.
(02:06:51):
Juan Guido? We know that name.
He's turned into a party joke. But much to Trump's dismay,
Venezuela did not fall in 2019. Juan Guido was run out of the
country and had the shit beaten out of him in the streets by the
people. That was hilarious.
Former National Security Advisormurder walrus John Bolton told
(02:07:13):
us about it several times, once on CNN, another time in his own
memoir, the same time the the same John Bolton who had his
home rated this week. Quote.
I saw what it took for opposition to try and overturn
an illegally elected president and they failed.
The notion that Donald Trump washalf as competent as the the
(02:07:34):
Venezuelan opposition leader is laughable.
Of course, Marco Rubio is already hard at work to choose a
leader for the American occupiedVenezuela.
You probably haven't seen this, but back in May, Rubio actually
had met with several Venezuelan opposition leaders, but only
named Maria Carino Machado and Juan Pablo Guanipa in the
(02:07:59):
official memo that followed. He then paints Maria as a martyr
in this document. It almost feels like a precursor
to her rise. Yeah, now it turns out that
she's working with the Bitcoin creeps.
You combine those two things, Mark my words.
If Venezuela falls, you can lookfor the US government to place
Juan Pablo Guanipa or more likely, Maria Carino Machado
(02:08:23):
because she's friendly with the bankers as the new US placed
Democratic leader, even though nobody elected them.
So here's her take on Maria Machado, handpicked by the the
Asian Council of the Americas, right.
In June 2025, a powerful business group called the COA,
(02:08:45):
backed by Big Oil, including Chevron and corporate America,
held an event with the very sameMaria Carino Machado.
How convenient. Instead of focusing on human
rights or democracy, the meetingwas about money.
They told banks, oil companies and investors that Venezuela's
crisis is an opportunity to get rich if Maduro's government
(02:09:08):
falls. I'm not going to play this.
I think this is a long video. Yeah, it's almost an hour.
Well, good morning, everyone. All right, parasites.
A trillion dollar opportunity. The global upside.
Gross. The America's Society Machado
laid out a plan to sell off public industries, bring in the
IMF and World Bank, and make it easier for foreign companies to
(02:09:31):
operate with cheap labor and fewrules.
What a great representation of American democracy.
She's won Guaido 2 point O in a skirt.
Here are her final thoughts. Here's the big picture.
Panama was never about China. It was about Black Rock
controlling the gates. Venezuela was never about
cartels. It was about Chevron controlling
(02:09:51):
the oil, and the US military on the coast is not about drugs,
it's about enforcing the deal. This is state fusion though.
It's state fascism dressed up asforeign policy, a machine where
Trump provides the theater, WallStreet writes the contracts, and
the Pentagon brings the guns. Again, fascism is the merger of
(02:10:16):
state and corporate. That's exactly what this is and
support dissent and Bloom capitalism.
She just passed 11,000 free subscribers on sub stack.
Congratulations to her for that.And she's ranking it also on the
paid sub. So if you're able to and a
(02:10:37):
means, support her with a monthly or annual paid
subscription. Fascist hate and educated mind.
Share this also to spread the word, talk about it, restack it,
let the world know what we're really up against.
We're in this together, all right, And support independent
media. So what's up, everyone?
(02:10:59):
Fuck Venezuela, too. Well, no, support Venezuela.
Fuck the Trump administration. Maduro isn't exactly a good guy,
but like Putin, he's being set up here, right?
And if he retaliates in any way,they're going to call him a
dictator and a thug and a drug dealer.
They've already set this narrative up right?
(02:11:20):
You've already done that. So that's what's happening here.
All right, We're still going to get the boats.
I did want to. I did have a lightning round
Before we do that again, fund the media you want to see,
support independent media. We do not get funded on YouTube.
The ways to do that are Cash App, Dollar Sign, Indy News

at innnewsletter.com where we'regoing to be live for boats
smashing other boats in a littlebit, and at indymediatoday.com
where we're live now and have been since the beginning of the

stories I just want to show you the headlines for.
I will drop the links and you'llhave to go through them
yourself. And I encourage everyone too
because they're really importantstories.
(02:12:09):
It's just, you see how much stuff I had to cover already?
Number one, sludge. I like these guys a lot.
Donnie, Donnie, Donnie and DavidMoore, who guys run this
accountability journalism newsletter.
Non, excuse me, Nonprofit user funding.
Lawmakers hold stocks in defense, energy and tech
(02:12:30):
companies they oversee. I don't think that's a surprise
to anyone here, but the list of 13 senators and representatives
whose stock portfolios raise conflict of interest questions,
you can only imagine who's in there.
All right, you have Susan Collins, and that's who was in
the photo above. All right, you have Thomas
(02:12:52):
Daffron, right, a former Republican Senate chief was
chief operating officer for lobbying firm Jefferson

(02:13:13):
Get into this whole thing. Josh Gottheimer, they're talking
about him at some point becomingspeaker of the House and
replacing Jeffries as new leader.
He's making a ton of money and and selling stock and you've got
people who are buying oil and big Tekken banks that we Dingle
a lot of Democrats in there by the way.
But also, of course, we know Marjorie Taylor Green with the
(02:13:37):
Palantir, Amazon, Microsoft, Tesla, look at all that shit.
OK, so that's sludge Donnie, Donnie.
All right, next, an article fromthe Conversation.
We've been talking about data centers.
Data centers consume massive amounts of water and companies
(02:13:57):
rarely tell the public exactly how much.
So this is a longer article by acouple of people over at the of
the center, the director of the Center for Water Policy and and
a water policy specialist for University of Washington,
Wisconsin, Milwaukee, right? Definitely read this one.
(02:14:18):
This is fascinating, right? And then speaking more of water,
Erin Brockovich, one of the mostfamous water people there is, we
have how to plan for having no water.
And here are just some examples of where there have been weeks
where people go without water. And what do you do to prepare
(02:14:40):
for this? This is actually like a how to I
really love that she does this. It's it's it's always practical
solutions. While drought in California gets
a ton of attention, it also lacks adequate water
infrastructure to provide Californians with the resources
they'll need in the future. The data doesn't lie, and it's
telling us that our water systemis unprepared for California's
(02:15:01):
hotter and drier climate. Governor, Governor, future
President Newsome said in a statement earlier this summer.
Well, hopefully not. Despite efforts to increase
groundwater and develop strongerpartnerships with water agencies
because the Resnicks own most the water in California,
California's new water system remains unprepared for the
(02:15:21):
hotter and drier future, according to a new report
showing that the state is collecting more groundwater data
than ever before. So check that one out.
The 4th 1. And this is the only time I'm
going to talk about this. Hopefully this asshole on the
show ever. Zoran Mamdani is already being
(02:15:41):
Co opted by big business and theDemocratic Party.
I don't like mentioning this guy, but.
Let Who would Who would have thought that?
Left Voice laid out a bunch of reasons why people should not be
buying into this clown, why you should distrust anybody who is
pushing this guy and who is claiming that he is some kind of
(02:16:02):
a hope or a future of the Democratic Party.
He might be, but he's also taking big money from all kinds
of people all over the place. This was actually published out
of out of France because of course, no American would
possibly write this, but Zoran has not yet been elected, but
he's already organizing meetingswith big business leaders and
(02:16:23):
Democratic Party officials. The New Hope for international
reformism is already capitulating on his principles.
So go read this one from left voice again.
I'll put this in the description.
All right, now, we'll get to theGofundmes quick, and then we'll
get to votes. All right, Unfortunately our
(02:16:44):
friend Shanda had a set back this week.
She got a PET scan back. This is the proper way to tell
cancer to fuck off. Just a quick update.
Her cancer's back, her last per scan, PET scan I think it is.
She wrote a massive new hotspot,mostly in her lungs, ribs and
liver and legs. She met with her oncologist
(02:17:06):
yesterday. Her case is very unusual.
Her cancer isn't acting like a typical ex S CLC of course, so
he's referring her to Fred Hutchinson, University of
Washington specialist back to radiation and her pulmonary
thoracic surgeon. He's dealing with the worst pain
she's ever known in the tops of her femur bones and hips, so
(02:17:28):
he's upped her pain meds. She swears the amount that she's
taking now is insane. We have second line chemo in
place once we pinpoint what's going on in my liver and more
radiation to her legs. She knew something had changed.
She was hoping she was overdoingit, but rest assured she's not
giving up and neither are we. She's having to use a Walker
(02:17:49):
just to keep the pain in her legs under control.
But hey, she's already made it further than half the people
who've ever been diagnosed at the same time as herself.
Can't believe it's already been exactly 1 year since we were all
blindsided by this evil monster.She's in much need of so many
things now that it's progressing.
If you can't help out, here's the GoFundMe link.
(02:18:12):
We can't thank all of you enoughfor your love, support, and
encouragement. She knows she wouldn't have made
it this far without it. We even kicked in this week to
that campaign. Fuck cancer.
I'll drop that into all the all the YouTube descriptions or you
know, wherever into the chat andit'll be in the description for
the video as well as LinkedIn. The sub stacked for this stream,
(02:18:37):
I can't get it into the description in most of the other
channels, but it'll be at sub stack.
So, you know, a note of encouragement and a couple of
bucks if you have it over 2700 raised already, if you need some
more help for sure. All right, Jack's page threw
(02:18:58):
down Tamashwari. Kate, I saw you.
You were the other person that contributed here.
Thank you so much. Trina Jones was one of the top
donations there. Again, thank you to everybody
who who's able to support our friend Shanda.
We love you. Next we have cowboy Kitty,
Anthony Malecki also like Lee inchat.
(02:19:18):
His sister-in-law is dealing with an ICE detention or an
illegal traffic stop for a registration that was not
expired, but that's what they claimed.
Natalia came to the US with her daughter to pursue a better life
pursuing A fleeing and abusive ex-husband who threatened to
kill her. Her entire family's here and now
(02:19:39):
she's being abused by a fascist police state that's torturing
her for the profits of the prison industrial complex.
Fuck ICE. Disgusting.
Right? So Natalia and her family could
use help also. And her GoFundMe is also.
I'm going to drop that into the.All of the chats as well.
(02:20:02):
Love you brother Anthony. And again, anything anybody can
do. She's raised over they we've
raised over 1100 for her. But long way to go. 4500 is the
goal there. Now I have not gotten an update
from our friend Andrew since seeing this over at you know,
action for formerly action for Assange.
(02:20:23):
Andrew Ziegman Smith, his daughter Anna Marie has been
undergoing some brain tumor stuff back in surgery.
She will, I don't know if she was home yet.
They were looking for prayers and anything that you can do to
help. Again, they've raised over 7700.
They're trying to get to 9000. So let's let's drop that in
(02:20:46):
there for for them as well. And fuck cancer and and it's
just just brutal. Just brutal.
Finally, again, we this is indienews now.
This is the website I've been talking about all night during
the breaks when we talk about funding the media.
The keep the news free section is right here that does link to
(02:21:06):
our stripe. It also has a shop link embedded
from our old shop. Now that old shop somebody
ordered from last in June and never got their stickers.
So I'm a little hesitant to order from them.
I have a different shop that I can share a link for.
Also, if you click on Watch Live, we are actually live right
now. You can break this down by
articles, podcast, videos, or just looking at everything that
(02:21:30):
comes in as a fire hose of content 24/7.
This is the new shop by the way.It's at
indienewsshop.itemorder.com slash dot slash home.
And again, I'm going to put thatin the cat there for everyone in
case you want to order some merch.
INN T-shirts, indie T-shirts with the the tie.
(02:21:53):
We've got stickers, we've got beanies, we've got baseball
hats, snapbacks. We got tank tops for the ladies
like our friend Anna Mayers, wholikes to wear tank tops.
Love you, Anna. Hope you're doing well.
All right. And I think that's all I had and
I'm spent. Hamishwari cake cannot make it

(02:24:04):
I love you all have a great night, everyone.
Ciao baby. No, we just fucking lost the
stream. I think I liked it better being
(02:24:31):
blind when I couldn't read Between the lions and when I
couldn't see the cracks in the structure that lay bare before
me the whole time. I think I liked it better back
when I suspended disbelief and swallow in pride.
I thought I knew the difference in the red from the blue, but
(02:24:53):
they both bleed us so dry. They both bleed us so dry.
My favorite songs don't hit the same way.
I get to the end of a 4 minute track and I'm only looking back
thinking what did they actually say?
I guess this isn't such an awfulplace.
(02:25:14):
It's not what you want me to say.
Hey, you're proven possible to sleep for days and I still think
you're right here away. The cost of living isn't much to
me, but God, it's so hard to say, hey, and we're meant to do
(02:25:36):
everything I said, were you safe?
