Speaker 1 (00:00):
Nineteen thirty two dot or.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
But there's a reason. There's a reason. There's a reason
for this.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
There's a reason education sucks, and it's the same reason
that will never ever ever be fixed.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
It's never gonna get any better. Don't look for it.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Be happy with what you got because the owners of
this country you don't want that. I'm talking about the
real owners now, the real owners, the big wealthy business
interests that control things and make all the important decisions.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
They get the politicians. The politicians are put there to
give you the idea that you have freedom of choice.
You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They
own you.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
They own everything, They own all the important land. They
own and control the corporations they've long since bought and
paid for, the Senate, the Congress.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
The state houses, and the city halls. They got the
judges in their back buckets.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
And they own all the big media companies, so they
control just about all of the news and information you.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Get to hear. They got you by the balls.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying, lobbying to
get what they want. Well, we know what they want.
They want more for themselves and less for everybody else.
But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't
want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
They don't want well informed.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Well educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested
in that. That doesn't help them, that's against their interest,
that's right. They don't want people who are smart enough
to sit around the kitchen table figure out how bad they're
getting by a system that through them overboard thirty ten
years ago. They don't want that. You know what they want?
They want obedient workers. Obedient workers, people who are just
smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork,
and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly
(01:24):
shit jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the
reduced benefits, the end of overtime, and the vanishing pension
that disappears in the minute you go to collected. And
now they're coming for your social Security money. They want
you for retirement money. They want it back so they
can get it to their criminal friends on Wall Street.
And you know something, they'll get it. They'll get it
all from you sooner related because they own this place.
It's a big club, and you ain't in it. You
(01:45):
and I are not in the big club. And by
the way, it's the same big club they use to
beat you over the head with all day long when
they tell you what to believe all day long, beating
you over the head in their mediate's telling you what
to believe, what to think, and what to buy.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
The table is tilted, folks, The game is rigged, and
nobody seems to notice. No, nobody seems to care.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Good honest, hard working people, white collar, blue collar, doesn't
matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest, hard
working people continue, these are people of modest beings, continue
to elect these rich cockers who don't give up about them.
They don't give up about you. They don't give up
about you. They don't care about you at all, at all,
at all.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Man, You know, and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems
to care.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
That's what the owners count on the fact that Americans
will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white,
and blue that's being jammed up their assy day because
the owners of this country know the truth. It's called
the American dream because you have to be asleep to
believe it.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Okay, it is Friday, seven am or they'reabouts, depending on
how the engineers put the ads before the show.
Speaker 5 (02:54):
And it's the eleventh of July, and while how the
time flies?
Speaker 4 (02:59):
And this is politics by Jake, And I am Jake,
your political commentator. You're student historian, and we do political
education on this show because I know that you don't
know these things. And I'm going to actually start off
the show with political education and talk to you about
a couple of things that you don't know.
Speaker 5 (03:17):
Necessarily if you do know.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
The call up the station CACAA in Low Melinda and say,
you know, I just wanted to let you know that
I know. That's smart, Alec Jake. He's not the only
one who knows anything.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
I know too. You can do that. That's great.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
We always appreciate that because we want an educated person
who is exercising the sacred franchise.
Speaker 5 (03:40):
Of the vote. That's what we want.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
We don't want you doing things like what I did
when I was eighteen years old and Nelson Rockefeller of
the infamous Rockefeller family was governor of New York and
I elected to put him in, or actually was already in,
but I elected him to serve again. Why he had
a wife, and his wife was named Happy, and I thought,
(04:03):
this guy is a swell fellow. I mean, anybody who
has a wife named Happy, that's my vote right there.
And of course that's just completely that's completely wrong. That's
just totally wrong. And we don't want an uneducated electorate
like that. So we do political education and we talk
about fascism. We don't really call it authoritarianism. We don't
(04:25):
really call it reactionaryism. Although reactionaries they're kind of under
the same tent with fascists, but they stop, they stop
short of violent, and they will definitely game the system,
but they generally speaking, generally speaking, they don't do violent.
So I wanted and normally I would have spent much
(04:45):
more time going back to the show on the fifth.
I would have spent more time on the fourth of
July because this is just I can't express to you
enough how important this is. The idea is so important.
I said that, I know, but it's so important. The
idea is this. The fourth of July is the gateway
into the modern world. Gettysburg and Vicksburg, they're the gateways.
(05:08):
July third and July fourth, eighteen sixty three, respectively. The
United States just gave birth to the United States even
though the war wasn't over until you know, April or August,
depending on how you figure it, of eighteen sixty five.
It gave birth to a new United States that has
become the modern state par excell And I wanted to
(05:29):
go through this now and make sure that you know this.
It is the dominating paradigm, along with the British Parliament
and a few other things. Yeah, but mainly the United
States is the modern state par excellence. And it is
directed and absolutely positively opposed to oligarch and concordantly, it
(05:50):
is gateway to the new birth of freedom, which the
Union soldiery, and I want to say the Confederate soldiery too,
the Confederate soldiery by default they were fighting for the
old order. But the Union soldiery suffered, died for blood,
for had physical and mental scars, for probably four hundred
thousand casualties on the Union side. A lot of those,
(06:13):
of course, would be sickness and infection camp fever as
it used to be called. And it gave rise to
the Reconstruction Amendments and the reconstruction Amendments, the first the
thirteenth that's about slavery, no chattel, slavery, anymore. The fourteenth
has like five different sections. It's just it's like the
lynchpin between the thirteenth and the fifteenth. That's just incredibly important.
(06:36):
You regular listeners to the show will have heard me,
you know, talk about this before. And the fifteenth was
with regard to voting, and that's your new birth of
freedom right there. And I want to talk about the
things that are antithetical to that. And one of the
things that I want to talk about is I want
to talk about fascism. I want to talk about democracy
or democratic republicanism, just whatever you want. We have hybrid
(07:00):
form of government. I think it was Polybya's and he's
a Roman guy. Don't worry about it, just worry about
what he said. Polybius says that if you have a
single form of government, it's always going to fail. You
need a hybrid form. And that's what we've got. We
have got a democratic republic. We've got a government that
has the forms of a republic and it also has
(07:21):
the freedoms of a democracy. And some people will say, oh,
it's a republic. No, it's a democratic republic. And the
people will say, oh it's a democracy. No, it's not
it's a democratic republic, it's a hybrid. So I want
to and I said that I would talk about in
a couple of previous shows to this because there's so
much just an hour is not enough, and we're negotiating
with the various stations to see if we can get
(07:42):
more time, and that's ongoing and I'll be sure to
let you know on that as soon as that happens.
But I can't get to it all. But one of
the things that I told you I wanted to talk
to you about was I wanted to talk to you
about the state of the Democratic Party, and I also
want to talk about fashion. Let me talk to the
little bit about fascism first, and then we'll get into
(08:03):
the Democratic Party a little bit. Stalin said, the main
enemy is the social Democrat, and therefore you've got to
fight them. And that's the theory right there of social fascism.
That's social fascism. And this is the heritage of a
certain kind of democrat, the ultra left democrat in the
twentieth century. It's a form of counterinsurgency. We've talked at
(08:28):
different times about the Philadelphia Plan and this was Nixon,
and I know you don't attribute this kind of deviousness
and this kind of purposed malevolence to somebody like Nixon.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
But it's a thing. I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
So you have the Philadelphia Plan, and the Philadelphia Plan
is Nixon and Secretary of Labor George Schultz. They're getting
together to play the building trades, the unions, the hard
hats against the black unemployed. So this is one part
of the New Deal. And I'm getting into the New Deal.
We're going to talk about what the New Deal is,
but let's just start with us first. So this was
(09:03):
trying to split the New Deal coalition because it was
so successful. It's the most successful form of economic government
ever seen. I mean, it really is. So they're trying.
This is the one thing about these guys that you
need to understand. They hate the New Deal. They hate
the New Deal because they're the representatives of people like
(09:24):
finance all and what George Carlin referred to in the
clip that you just heard that started the show that
I also played periodically as the financial criminals who run walls,
and it is really kind of criminal what they're doing.
And they have people who the market often operates on
the greater fool theory to get the big suckers in
there and then clean them out and then take your profits.
(09:47):
So they're forever trying to figure out what to do
to break up the New Deal. So they did that,
and they played one part of the New Deal. And
I haven't even said to you what it is yet,
but I'm gonna because I need to. I wanted for
while to talk about the coalition that made up the
New Deal. And I don't think you've ever heard me
say just exactly what it was. You just heard me
(10:08):
say new Deal, New Deal, new deal. So I'm going
to tell you about that. So they wanted to play
one part of the New Deal against the other split
the New Deal coalition. And that's counterinsurgency. That's a WEDB issue,
and that's where a lot of this stuff comes from.
And here we go. I'm going to tell you what
the coalition was, the FDR coalition. It was cities, it
(10:30):
was labor, it was you know, definitely democratic political machines.
The South was still in play, not anymore, but for
various reasons. Then because remember and I know, like I said,
this is history. I'm going back aways. You don't necessarily
know this. Take it from me. The South was still possible.
And this is why you have farmers, you have soldiers,
(10:52):
you have Black Americans. And they found that they could
do better with the WPA, the PWA and related things right.
And these are the sort of Harry Hopkins world of
work for government sponsored jobs. And people today don't realize,
but it is these work projects which have built virtually
(11:16):
all of the public buildings in the Midwest, and so
many places still there, the libraries, the city councils and
all this. And this was a winning combination. So it
was the FDR coalition dominated by dominated the United States.
It dominated the United States. And this for those of
you who are unaware, and that's okay, that's why you
listen to PBJ, PBNJ, you plug. It also had wonderful merit.
(11:42):
The New Deal in America under FDR is the first
time in world history that we know that the middle
class becomes the numerical majority of the entire society. And
that lasted from some time in the nineteen thirties, late
thirties maybe or maybe you're at but it lasted from
(12:02):
then until And the best figure I have is twenty fifteen.
Foundation research showed that the American middle class ceased to
be the majority of society around December twenty fifteen. You
didn't know that, but it's true, and it has not
gotten any better since then. And you have this other
kind of Democrat, which is an ultra left Democrat. Mondomni
(12:24):
of the Democratic candidate for mayor of New York.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
He's one of them.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
I could talk about him. I don't know, Maybe i'll
talk about him. The disappointment is that the ultra left
is a sectarian He can't or she can't compromise on
the color.
Speaker 5 (12:41):
Groups are like this.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
They they exist independent of each other. They can't get
together form any kind of a coalition. They're just, you know,
one trick ponies. They're just doing what they do and
that's it. And therefore what you've got then is a
crippling additional larding or overlay of ideology on top of
something that might be viable. And it's too bad. It's
really too bad. And this is a can of worms
(13:04):
that the Democratic Party does not need. They don't seem
to be able to find their way out of it.
It's splitting, it's dividing. We've always said the ultralofts are
often they're often perpetrated, whether they know it or not,
a fratricide. Sometimes I've heard them called the fratriss I
caucus because their business model is to attack incumbent Democrats.
(13:26):
And we had Hog, for example, who wanted to institutionalize that.
He said, let's have a situation where the Democratic Party,
through or a member of the Deputy National Secretary himself,
was going to promote challenges, primary challenges, you know, to
Democrats in safe seats because there was two studgy or something,
you know, they were not radical enough. And unfortunately it
(13:47):
looks like that has been ended. But a lot of
bad blood, a lot of energy lost in the Democratic
National Committee when you should have been focusing on doing
things to begin to slow down Trump and prepare for
his loss of power. But that it's not what happened.
So the ultra left business model it has to be rejected.
The political party has to be there to win election.
It's not to somehow represent every striation of opinion or
(14:12):
radicalism or you know, whatever it is. Because as a
methodology for winning elections, it just doesn't work. So we
have to get back. Honestly, you have to get back
to the New Deal way of doing things. Mass traction,
economic demands that benefit everyone, and then when we're in power,
we can worry about the rest of this stuff. If
everyone is being economically benefited, they're all going to be
(14:34):
happier anyway. And I think that's the opening segment of
the show. And now we'll take a break here from
our good to friends at Twin Consulting. And this is

Speaker 4 (16:04):
Patreon dot com Forward slash Politics by Jake. That's patreon

just the truth. Let's do this together. Okay, And this
is politics by Jake, And we are back. How are
you doing? And as usual, there's a lot going on,
uh Trump and his cabal. And someone was talking about
(16:29):
this the other day. I can't remember, but I saw
it that Oh. I think it was Alessandro Cosio Cortez,
who I don't know.
Speaker 5 (16:37):
I think she's.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
Flipping back and forth between being a democratic socialist and
being a democrat. I wish she would change to Democrat,
she would stand a better chance on a national stage, because,
as I've explained to you, because we have honestly politically
backwards people. And you know, as I said in the
previous segment before, and I will, I will own up
to this. I will plead guilty of this. When I
(17:00):
was eighteen years old, I voted for Governor Rockefeller because
his wife name was happy. That's the reason why I
voted for him. Nineteen seventy two, I voted for Richard
Nixon because he said sock it to me on Rowan
and Martin's laughing. So I don't excuse myself here. I
understand that people are in this society more than ever
now since twenty fifteen. As I reported, the middle class
(17:22):
has ceased to be a force in American society since
about twenty sixteen or twenty fifteen, according to the Foundation
study that I cited in the last segment. But I
understand that we are all busy, we are all enjoying
the freedoms that we have right now that the American
system has given us, and increasingly we are all oppressed economically.
(17:45):
Remember what Franklin Dolano Roosevelt said, A necessitous man is
not a free man. This was embodied in the New Deal,
it was embodied in the Second Economic.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
Bill of Rights.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
It was the fundamental premise of the Second Economic Bill
of Rights. And it was even in the Atlantic, the
North Atlantic Charter, which I didn't really know, but that's
that's amazing.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
So this is.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
An incredibly important concept. If you're necessitous, you're not free.
And I know that a lot of you who are listening,
I understand you're struggling increasingly to keep your nostrils above
the economic waterline.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
I get it.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
You don't have the opportunity to delve into this stuff
the way I have. I appreciate you listening. That shows
just listening to politics by Jake shows that you're politically active,
and I appreciate it. Welcome all, yay, Welcome the maggots,
for that matter, because the maggots, I mean, I believe.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
In deathbed repentant.
Speaker 4 (18:40):
I believe that even the maggots, IM sorry, even the
maggots can repent repent of their political inanity and stupidity
and naivete, which I also I am a fellow center.
I believe guilty too. I was like you at one time,
and so just to reduce that to the final comment,
(19:00):
thank you for watching and listening to the show.
Speaker 5 (19:03):
We've got a bunch of things.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
I've got, like literally, I've got like fourteen things that
I wanted to cover. There's just no way on two
shows away, well, no way in one show that I'm
going to be able to get into him.
Speaker 5 (19:14):
You know, certainly going to try.
Speaker 4 (19:16):
But one of the things that you have heard me
talk about periodically, and it's important, was President Biden when
he was the president, he had a plan. He wanted
to address the deficits. So let's just briefly for a minute, Okay,
let's turn our attention to the amounting economic challenges facing
the United States. These are challenges that carry profound implications
(19:38):
not just for our country, but for the entire global
financial system. Our national debt has soared to an unprecedented
thirty seven trillion. Thirty seven trillion, that's dollars. To put
that into perspective, This level of the debtness posed the
serious ricks of financial instability, potential collapse if not managed carefully.
And it's not being managed carefully. The federal government under
(20:02):
Trump is spending like a drunken sailor. And you know,
I will say this, and I will say this, you
have to give credit where credit is due, even though
these guys are fascists, even though these guys purposely have
tried to overthrow the government. And it's not just Trump
they follow through the people elected him. Elon Musk, for example,
paid two hundred and seventy seven million dollars. I believe
(20:24):
that's the figure. If somebody wanted to call in the
station and say, no, it's not it's two hundred and
seventy six million, that's fine.
Speaker 5 (20:29):
I'm all right with that. Call into the.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
Station in CASEAA Lomelando, California and say, no, Jake was wrong,
you need to fire.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Anyway.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
I believe it's two hundred and seventy seven million dollars
a lot of money in order to get him elected.
And for that, Trump performed for the various other industries
that paid hundreds of millions, and you know that's unfortunately,
that's what it takes. Hundreds of millions and even billions
of dollars. Trump has performed, and the other Republican presidents
tend to be this same way. The Democrats. As I've
(21:04):
explained before. In the last segment, I talked about the
ultra lefts, for example, and there are all there are
ultras on the right, there's the alt right.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
Call them.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
They perform, but they're kind of captured. And again I
talked about this in the last segment. They've gone away
from the New Deal roots and this is just really
important to say again, they've gone away from the New
Deal roots and they've gone corporate. And that's Clinton, that's
the Clinton Eistas. Clinton got his presidency in a great
(21:35):
extent because he wanted to go ahead and play ball
with the corporatists. That's why they're called gorilla Democrats. That's
why they're called Clinton Eistas, because they went against the
New Deal concept that had worked so well and it
brought so much prosperity to America. And now the remaining Democrats,
and there are a lot of them, Alessandria A Cosio
(21:56):
Cortez is not one of them.
Speaker 5 (21:58):
She has other problems. She's she's kind of.
Speaker 4 (22:01):
Half in and half out of the squad, in my opinion.
And they are stuck and the corporatists don't really want
the Democrats to win, but they're playing both sides of
the fence and they're controlling the Democrats and the Democrats
want more than anything to get elected, as we have. Assandra,
a cousin Cortes said, I went to the secret meetings
(22:21):
and I heard the representatives say, my donors, my donors,
my donor, instead of my constituents, my constituents, my constitutent.
That's who's paying them. And they want to get elected
more than anything else. That's who's paying them, and that
is whose tune they dance to.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
So enough of that.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
Our national debt in the meantime started to unprecedented thirty
seven trillion dollars. One of the key issues tied to
this debt crisis is the federal reserves and the Treasury's
on going to struggle to finance government operations. Recent treasury
bond auctions have faced unexpected challenges, signaling that investors may
be growing weary. And this is the thing that I
(22:56):
look at what's going on in Congress, and I look
at the Republicans doing what they're doing, and it's like
you're whistling in a burning building and you're pretending like
nothing's going wrong, and this is unreasonable, and the people
don't know. I doubt that many of my listeners know
that our national debt is now thirty seven trillion dollars.
(23:17):
This can't go on now. These auctions, as I said,
they're crucial because they fund the government spending. Disruptions there
at the auctions can lead to spikes and borrowing costs
and increased economic uncertainty. And historically we can look back
to the Great Depression for lessons about this. That catastrophic
economic failure was in part fueled by debt and mismanagement.
(23:40):
It was also, you know, there's a couple of things involved.
In nineteen twenty nine. When people think that the depression hit,
it really wasn't a depression at that point. It was
a severe recession, it didn't become a depression, and it
did become a depression and a Great depression until nineteen
thirty one, when England went off of the gold standard.
(24:00):
You had Winston Churchill, who is the chander I'm not
I'm just touching on this lightly, but this is important
to understand because people don't understand it. Winston Churchill was
Chancellor of the Exchequer. He wanted to be the Golden Chancellor,
and he got the United States to buy into manipulating
the dollar vis a VI gold so that England could
(24:23):
stay on the gold standard, but in nineteen thirty one
they just couldn't do it anymore. And somebody said famously
at the time, it's the end of the world. And
it was because all spending in the entire world, it
was done on bills of credit backed by pounds sterling,
and that's how borrowing got done, that's how finances got
(24:43):
done in the world, and there was nothing to replace it.
And so when this person said it's the end of
the world as we know it, he was right. But
the policy responses and the were poor. As I explained
debt mismanagement. It was poor mismanagement of the of the dollar,
and the parallels today are unsettling, especially if we continue
(25:05):
to down this path of austerity that stifles growth while
the debt continues to climb. Another looming threat which I just,
you know, kind of touched on, but I'm kind of
energized by this.
Speaker 5 (25:16):
Stuff, and I'm.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
Touching on stuff before you know, my notes tell me
to touch on it, so excuse me there. But another
looming threat is the potential erosion of the United States
dollar status as the world's primarily reserve currency. There's economic
war that has been waged for a long time against
the dollar, and honestly, there's nobody. There's no reserve currency
(25:40):
like the dollar. There isn't There just isn't nobody. In
order to be reserve currency, which the United States Federal
Reserve System is, you've got to be able to handle
if somebody comes to you, if the country comes to
you and says, look, you know, I need cash, You've
got to be handle to handle it. And it's not uncommon.
It's not an all uncommon to be able to have
(26:02):
to be liquid to the amount of one trillion dollars
per day, one trillion dollars per day in an emergency,
five or six or seven trillion dollars a day. And
this is one of the reasons why the dollars had
global dominance. This has afforded the United States significant economic
and geopolitical advantages. I'm sorry, guys, it's all about money,
(26:25):
sustained fiscal irresponsibility. Like we're seeing all what Trump is doing,
and you needn't look beyond the mark to try to
obtain insights as to why this is going on.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
It's a giveaway. It's a cash giveaway.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
It's the finance oligarch class, the criminals who run Wall Street,
who want the huge pots of money that are in
the United States Treasury and that they are granted to
the United States programs by Congress. They want it. They
want more for you. That's why I played the Carlon clip.
They want more for themselves and they want less or
(27:00):
nothing for you. And it's just as simple as that.
It's glossed over with a veneer of civilization, of collegiality,
But when you get right down to it, it's not
that that is all smokes green for people who don't
listen to Politics by Jake and don't have the understanding
that I provide to them Mondays and Fridays seven am,
(27:21):
Cheap Plug Politics by Jake, Listen and learn. But you
always have these attacks, and you have this sustained fiscal
ir responsibility, you have this rising debt that is not
being addressed. Geopolitical tensions risk undermining the status. And that
is why, for the second time in the show, I'm
saying that had Biden stayed in and this is why
he want they wanted him out because he asked for
(27:44):
them to pay their fair share and they didn't want to.
And that was all it took for them to say,
you know, to go to Nancy Pelosi and to go
to Barack Obama and say, this guy's gotta go. He's
got to go, because what did he want. He wanted
to address these thirty seven trillion dollars in deficits and
the way he was going to do it, and he
(28:05):
had a plan. And the plan was, I believe, over
ten years, was to have a twenty five percent alternative
minimum tax on corporations twenty eight percent top rate, which
is not bad. Ninety percent was the top rate in
the fifties. Corporations got along, you know, really okay with that,
and a twenty eight percent capital gains tax. This drove
(28:25):
the bankers and the other financial oligarchs and hedge fund hyenas.
They just drove them wild, and they said, get rid
of this guy. And that's why you have the situation
that you have now with the big beautiful bill. It
is the reaction and the antithesis to what Biden wanted
to do. If the dollar loses its reserve currency position,
(28:49):
the consequences could be severe.
Speaker 5 (28:52):
It would be would be incredibly severe.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Higher borrowing costs, diminished economic influence, increase vulnerability to.
Speaker 5 (28:58):
Global financial shops.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
And this doesn't it's not a theoretical concern, it's a reality.
It demands attention. Policy makers must take urgent steps to
stabilize the debt promote sustainable growth. And you won't get
that out of Trump. He'll just continue to go on.
And those who hold his coat and those who follow him,
the little Marco Rubios and the Carolyn Levittz and the
Pam blondies who sit there in the cabinet meetings which
(29:23):
a're televised, and a requirement of the cabinet secretaries, and
this is just the most disgusting thing that you can imagine.
The requirement is that they each have to go around
and they have to say good things about Trump while
he sits there on his fat ass and listens to it.
This is just the most disgusting thing. It's a capitulation
(29:44):
of political decency and care for one's fellow man, and
it's the fealty. Some people wear a gold pin. They
used to wear a flag of the United States pen
on their lapel, which was bad enough. Let's have somebody
wear a Constitution pin on the lapel. But it was
bad enough to do the flag. At least the flag
represents the Constitution, but in this particular situation they are
(30:07):
wearing gold pins of Donald Trump. It's a complete and
embarrassing capitulation. It's entirely the same as the Nazis and
the cult worship of Adolf Hitler. And like I said,
it's not a distant theoretical concern. Thirty seven trillion dollars.
Thirty seven trillion dollars. All I can say is of
(30:28):
all that I've said is that as citizens and stakeholders
in this economy, we need to stay formed, demand accountability,
push for policies, prioritize long term economic health over short
term political gains. Because the economic future of our nation
the ability of the global financial system, the global financial system.
So someday some other person doesn't get up and say
(30:49):
it's the end of the world. It all depends on it.
And this is politics by Jake. And now here's a
work from one of our sponsors, plain Consulting.
Speaker 5 (31:02):
Hi, this is Jake with twin consulting.

Speaker 4 (32:12):
And we are back and thank you toin Consulting and
go visit twin Consulting at Facebook, do on cop forward
slash toin Consulting and look at all of their great
products there. Now let's talk about the human cost a
bit of these cuts to Medicaid and Medicare and Obamacare,
which is of course, the Affordable Care Act. Healthcare is
(32:35):
the lifeblood of any society, and right now we face
devastating cuts that threaten to unravel the progress made over decades.
The post slashing of Medicaid, Medicare, Obamacare programs.
Speaker 5 (32:48):
It's not just a.
Speaker 4 (32:49):
Political issue, it's literally a matter of life and death
of Americans. Studies estimate that these tests could lead to
between fifty one thousan and two hundred and twenty four
thousand excess deaths every year. And these are lives lost
not due to natural causes, but directly because people we
denied access to the care that they need. This could
(33:12):
be a mother unable to afford cancer treatment that it
could be a child missing vital vaccinations. It could be
seniors losing access to life sustaining medication. Medicaid expansion in
many states has been credited with saving tens of thousands
of lives by providing healthcare coverage to millions who previously
had none. Rolling back these expansions threatens to reverse those gains,
(33:36):
and it pushes vulnerable populations back into a cycle of
poor health and preventable tragedy. It's not just about insurance cards.
It's about the barriers that make health care inaccessible. Complicated bureaucracy,
lack of affordable providers, programs that are hard to navigate.
These barriers disproportionately affect lower income families and communities of color,
(33:59):
deepening existing inequalities. The bottom line is clear on this.
Cutting these programs jeopardizes the health of millions. It puts
our entire public health system at risk. We must stand
up and demand that our leaders protect expanded access to healthcare,
not just to dismantle it, because when healthcare fails, society fails.
(34:19):
Now from there, let's talk about and these are, you know,
all the bullet points that I have. Things I wanted
to talk about the human and economic costs of the
rampant immigration enforcement. Today, we face an alarming escalation in
immigration enforcement. It's driven by a massive increase in funding
for secret police, which, let's face it, folks, they're Gestapo.
(34:40):
So the Gestapo, the secret police and deportation operations. The
government is allocated an unprecedented budget to intensify surveillance, detentions,
and deportations, an approach that raises serious ethical and practical concerns.
And what's truly shocking is that these deportation efforts are
not limited to undore documented imminrants alone. They increasingly target
(35:03):
millions of people, including United States citizens, who find themselves
caught in the crossfire due to mistaken identity, flawed records,
or bureaucratic overreach, which is one of the reasons why
I say, folks, they're building concentration camps. Do you understand
they're building concentration camps. They are redoing what the Gestapo
(35:24):
did in the Sturm of Thailand did in the days
of Adolf Hitler. They're absolutely doing it. And let me
tell you another thing. If you think these camps are
just fueler legal aliens, or you think these camps are
just for Hispanics or Latinos, if you think these camps
(35:45):
are just for Palestinian Americans, if you think these camps
are just for Asian Americans, which would be of course,
this would be outrageous enough. Guess again, guess again. So,
moving on beyond the human toll, families are torn apart,
communities are destabilized, profound economic costs. Theres mass deportations that
(36:09):
disrupt local economies, that removes essential workers, like the stupidity
of going and taking the farm workers out doing jobs
that Americans don't want and cannot do as effectively. It
undermines businesses, It undermines the delivery of the food that
we eat, and it's wrongheaded, it's misguided, and it's just
(36:29):
plain stupid, and it's dangerous. You have dangerous people, you
have idiots, you have morons, you have ideologues who have
no sense running the government, and undermines businesses that rely
on immigrant labor. Like I said, like farms, experts warned
that relentless pursuit of deportations harms industries ranging from agriculture
(36:49):
to construction for sure, jeopardizing economic recovery and growth. The
aggressive enforcement approach. It fuels fear, it fuels mistrust. You know, Look,
these guys wear masks because they know they're hated, and
they know they're not liked, and they know they're subject
to assault, vigilanty or ad hoc assault because they're afraid.
(37:12):
So they're doing these things for a paycheck. A lot
of them even aren't legal. They're just they're like just
guys in cars who are going and trying to do things.
It's discouraging immigrant communities, however, from seeking essential services or
cooperating with law enforcement. This ultimately is going to compromise
public safety for everyone. And I'm telling you, what goes
around comes around, and you need to be aware of
(37:34):
that that that's happening too. And as a consequence of this,
we have to question these policies and their massive price,
not only in dollars, but in human dignity, social cohesion.
Speaker 5 (37:46):
What we need instead.
Speaker 4 (37:47):
And you know, I've seen people argument that we have laws.
You know, it's not right to break the laws. I'll
tell you what laws we have. I'll tell you what
laws are being broken. We don't have an illegal immigration problem.
We have an illegal employer problem. And if the FEDS
would shut down these operations that are allowing these people
to come in and work these jobs without the benefits
(38:09):
being paid to them, or without them being in the
country properly safe for the sake of the argument that
they're in the country improperly, they wouldn't come because there wouldn't.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
Be any jobs.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
It's the employers who allow these things to go on
because they obtain an economic benefit from the nearly slave
labor practices that they employ with these people who come
over the border. You know, they just come over because
of what you and I want. They come over because
of what everybody wants. They want the economic benefits of
the United States, and they're willing to do these miserable,
(38:41):
rotten jobs that you can't get Americans to do in
order to get those blessings and benefits. They're humble. These
are the kinds of people that we should have as citizens.
So these things being the case is they said, we
have to question these policies. The human dignity that's compromised,
cohesion that's compromised. We need immigration reform, like Senator Langford's bill,
(39:05):
which Trump ordered the people in Congress who are enthralled
to him shot down. They pulled the rug out from
under Langford. That's for sure. We need immigration reform ground
and in fairness, compassion, and most of all, economic sense.
We have to therefore stand up against these draconian measures
(39:27):
and advocate for policies that recognize the value in humanity
of all people living in our communities. Now, I want
to address something else. I want to address the end
of USAID and it's far reaching consequences. On July first,
twenty twenty five, the United States officially terminated. It's USAID program.
(39:49):
It's been a cornerstone of our global humanitarian and development
efforts for decades, for decades, and please pay attention. This
is not just the end of a program. It is
a signal, nificant retreat from America's commitment to international leadership
and global health. USAID has been instrumental in saving millions
(40:09):
of lives worldwide, particularly through programs like PEPFAR, which is
the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, which dramatically reduced
HIV and AIDS infections debts across Africa and other vulnerable reasons.
The impact of USID extends a farbler beyond health, as
supporting education, supporting economic development, disaster relief, fostering stability in
(40:34):
some of the world's most fragile nations. By ending this program,
the United States is essentially ceding ground to geopolitical rivals
like Russia and China. These are people countries who are
aggressively expanding their influence through aid investment and strategic partnership.
And it's a dangerous thing. China is doing. Mainland China
(40:57):
is doing what's called the Belton Road, where they come
into country and they say you know, we'll build infrastructure
for you, We'll build bridges here, we'll build other things.
But what they demand also in return, is they demand
political influence and deve facto ownership and control of the
politics in that country. And by USID abdicating and leaving
(41:19):
the field, this threatens America's ability to shape global affairs
and protect its national interests. Say what you want about this,
This is part of nation building. The America First policy,
the misguided America first policy. That's drive because it's a canard,
because it's false, because it's phony. It's a couple of populists,
(41:42):
false populists who are turning everybody against everybody else. And
it sounds patriotic, but in reality it isolates in the
United States, it diminishes our global standing, and this isolation
breeds uncertainty. It opens the door for adversaries to fill
the vacuum left behind.
Speaker 5 (42:00):
This is crucial to understand.
Speaker 4 (42:01):
Supporting programs like USAID is not about charity or aid alone.
It's a matter of smart diplomacy because by helping other
nations achieve stability and prosperity, we create allies, we reduce conflicts,
we promote global security. So you know, the consequences of
abandoning USAID. This is going to ripple across continence and
(42:25):
ultimately back to our own shores. And we must call
upon our leaders to reverse the short sighted policy and
recommit to international engagement. America's strength has always been linked
to its leadership.
Speaker 2 (42:39):
In the world.
Speaker 5 (42:39):
That's nation building. We need to make sure that that
legacy continues.
Speaker 4 (42:45):
And this is politics by Jake. And now here's a

Speaker 5 (44:06):
Hi.
Speaker 4 (44:06):
This is Jake with politics by Jake to tell you
you're not crazy.
Speaker 5 (44:10):
The system is rigged.
Speaker 4 (44:12):
Help us say it louder, won't you join us at
Patreon dot com, Forward slash Politics by Jake And this
is politics by Jake, And we're back.
Speaker 5 (44:19):
Now let's just do a quick overview of Ukraine, shall we?
Speaker 4 (44:23):
And you know this changes so much once again though
hag Seth and other appeasers want to freeze. They want
to put a freeze on the weapons that they're giving
you Ukraine. The Ukraine government has called in, the Foreign
Ministry has been called in the US charge of the
fairs that there should be not be a delay. Why not,
(44:44):
because this Russian summer offensive that's been going on since
like April, it seems to have really gone nowhere. But
you know, it could, it could materialize it just about
any point. The US excuse is that US ammunition stockpiles
are too low. Well, I mean that's mismanagement right there.
I mean, you've been there for six months. Why don't
(45:04):
you order some new ammunition, some new patriot missile systems.
This is now the certain urgency of this is in
mid September, the Russian Federation is organizing its maneuver, which
is called Zapod twenty five. In other words, West Zapod
means West. The last time they did this with the
(45:26):
Zapod maneuver it was twenty twenty one, and this was
the deployment of Russian forces into Belarus and Western Russia
that were then used to attack Ukraine in February of
the following year of twenty twenty two. So, as usual,
as I've stressed in other contexts, in military affairs, often
the drill the exercise is used as a cover for
(45:48):
real military deployments that at a certain point go live.
They flip the switch and all of a sudden they're
live and everything is in place and ready to go.
Speaker 5 (45:58):
And then they would do that.
Speaker 4 (46:00):
And it is thought that the area between Belarus, where
the Russians would undoubtedly be and the enclave of Kaliningrad
Knigsburg on the Baltic is a very narrow corridor, and
this is called the Sulwalke corridor, and this is where
the attack might occur. It also involves crossing the territory
(46:20):
of Lithuania. It would cut off the land route from
the main you know, Poland and the rest of NATO
into the Baltic States. So what we need now are
patriot missiles one hundred and fifty five millimeters shells, health
fire missiles gmlrs, Stinger anti aircraft missiles, AIM missiles, grenade
(46:42):
launchers and so forth. There's a constant need of these,
and we're now at a level where Ukraine uses about
one hundred and fifty drones a day. This is one
of the reasons why the Russians cannot advance. They haven't succeeded.
It's because of this, and the Ukrainians claim to produce
(47:04):
two million drones per year as of now, but there's
a danger just about any time of a quick Soviet
attack acoup demain against Narva in Estonia, for example, all
the way at the extreme northeastern flank of NATO. Interesting things,
One of the big threats by the Russians is to
attack the city of Pokrovsk. Pokrovsk approximately that is the
(47:29):
area of the Russian eighth Army, and the Ukrainians have
just completely destroyed that headquarters. By the way, a lot
of those generals and staff officers are no more. They
have assumed room temperature. So you know this is important.
There is a US media boycott. Clearly the US media
have decided to play Kate Trump.
Speaker 5 (47:48):
We've talked about this, how.
Speaker 4 (47:50):
They had these meetings back in twenty twenty four before
the election even occurred. Trump is obviously ant what if
Trump wins. You know, Trump is obviously anti Ukraine. He's
obviously pro Russian. This is putting it mildly that I
think by now he's encourageiable. That's stating it more the
(48:10):
way it actually is, although it could change. But you're
just saying there's a great deal of unpredictability. He hasn't
lifted a finger. The Russians the past couple of weeks.
In one night, they were able to fire five hundred
and fifty drones and missiles total into different parts of Ukraine.
And it's too bad for them. I guess that they
still haven't grasped, which you would think they would, wouldn't you,
(48:32):
because it was done to them by the Nazis in
World War Two, that attacking civilian targets with that kind
of firepower, it gets you nowhere. I mean, really, you
can kill ten or twenty people. The Ukrainian Ukrainians they
now have the habit of going into the shelters. But
the Russians keep doing this. It seems to be a
(48:53):
kind of a tropism, a kind of a reflex, kind
of a knee jer thing that they have. And we've
got all kinds of interesting Krainanian attacks. The Ukrainians have
attacked a Russian military train, destroyed the locomotives, destroyed the
tracks that happened in Zaparizia. The Ukrainians have been hoping
for twenty thousand anti drone missiles that have been promised
by Trump. Trump has now said he's assigned them to
(49:15):
the Israelis. Nevertheless, the tactic of the Ukrainians to attack
deep into Russia, say in the area of volv Garad
right Stalingrad.
Speaker 5 (49:26):
You know, on the Volga.
Speaker 4 (49:27):
They've been able to do that and to destroy two
quite expensive Sukhi thirty four bombers that were there. So
the Ukrainians need to worry about a late summer offensive
now by the Russians Europe and eight is coming, but
it's coming too slow. The estimate now for the first
half of twenty twenty five is that Russian losses collectively
are two hundred and thirty thousand troops killed. I mean astounding,
(49:49):
it's astounding, two hundred and thirty thousand troops killed, wounded
and missing, capture dispersed, unaccounted for, two hundred and thirty
thousand troops in thirteen thousand, thirteen hundred tanks loss. And
you know, according to a professor his name is Kuyeb
of the Swiss Technical Institute, the Russians are capable of
(50:10):
manufacturing one tank per day, so three hundred and sixty
five tanks per year if that holds up right. But
instead the Russians are losing four tanks a day at
the current level, and that means they have depleted most
of the historic stocks of tanks going all the way
back to the nineteen forties, going all the way back
to the T thirty fourth. Yes, the T thirty fours,
(50:32):
the World War Two main battle tank, and most of
that now is depleted, so the Russians would need to
they would need to stop the war. If the Russians
stopped the war, though the Russians could rebuild a force
of three thousand tanks, it would take about seven years. Now,
Trump had promised Zelenski that at the meeting of the
G seven that according to Trump, he was going to
provide some Patriot missile batteries for the air defense. That
(50:55):
was the main thing that Zelenski asked about. But now
he has of course renegged on that. That's Trump welcher.
He's a welcher. Wel shown his promise, and there are
some wags who propose that he keeps going like this.
Speaker 5 (51:07):
Trump could be declared the patron state of Russia.
Speaker 2 (51:10):
That could happen.
Speaker 4 (51:11):
Trump could be the savior of Russia or at least
of the Putin regime. He could be, for example, canonized
Saint Don Jamaica states. Sorry, that's funny, but otherwise this
is a moment of great shame for the United States.
So just to sum up the Russian axes of advance,
pacrossk I mentioned this, but sum up Pakrofsk is one.
(51:35):
Kharkiv or Harkiv in the northeast of Ukraine. That's another
one where the Russians are attacking Sumi, a little bit
south of that. Sumi is a sort of opposite of
Kirk And we mentioned Zaparizia. The fighting goes on, but
there is no generalized Russian advance.
Speaker 5 (51:54):
It's just an.
Speaker 4 (51:54):
Extremely slow process with astronomical launches loss. And because of
the diffidence of Donald Trump that I just mentioned about
how he could be canonized as a Saint of Jamaica
estates the Coalition of the Willing, of course, came together
in Europe. It's about thirty countries, thirty countries minus the
(52:14):
United States. All I can say is, what a humiliation America. America,
make America great again by making yourself into a laughing
stock for cowardice. Well, all right, we're about out of time.
Getting back to this austerity bill. This isn't just about
healthcare cuts. It's about an entire austerity bill that threatens
to dismantle the social safety net for millions of Americans
(52:38):
from slashing Medicaid and Medicare, defunding, mass deportations of concentration camps.
That's right, concentration camps. This bill embodies cruelty disguised as
fiscal responsibility and the consequences they're devastating. Widespread job losses,
lost healthcare coverage, increased poverty, thousands of preventable deaths each year.
(52:59):
This bill is nothing short of a national disaster in
the making. But listen, there is hope. We have the
power to stop this. The critical moment is before the
twenty twenty six elections, when we can hold these lawmakers
accountable and vote them out. A lot of these things
don't go into effect until twenty twenty seven. If we
could flip the House, if we could flip the Senate,
(53:21):
increasingly more likely we could get a majority that would
override any veto, and we could repeal the big, beautiful bill.
So I urge you to call your representatives right now.
Make your voice heard. Just consider that you are now unnoticed.
You are marching until twenty twenty six, until November twenty
(53:42):
twenty six, Demand wherever you can that they reject this
brutal austerity bill in all its forms, so that we
can protect our communities, defend our rights which are absolutely
positively under attack. I haven't even talked about a lot
of the things that are going on right now. We'll
have to do that on the Monday Show. Ensure a
future where dignity and compassion prevail over the greed and
(54:05):
indifference of the financial of garcians. This fight is urgent,
the stakes are too high to ignore. Stand up, speak out,
vote them out. And this is politics by Jake.
