Full transcript with timestamps

0:00 The president of the United States of America, a convicted felon who has pardoned drug dealers. The former president of Honduras, completely gave him a pardon, has abducted the president of Venezuela. And you guys, this is unbelievable. This whole thing with Venezuela, you guys, I'm very fearful that he's gotten a taste of what uh the United States military is capable of. and it's going to get worse and worse. Listen to him on Air Force One yesterday talking about the US military and how excited he sounds about it.

0:40 We can't take a chance after having done this incredible thing last night of letting somebody else take over where we have to do it again. We can do it again, too. Nobody can stop us.

0:53 Okay, there he says we can do it again. We have to do it again. nobody can stop us. And he was on Fox after the um illegal invasion of Venezuela and abduction of the president there and his wife um talking about how he watched it was like watching a movie and it was so violent and fast. And I thought, "Oh god, he's gotten a taste for this. This is going to be his new era. He's gonna enter his I'm a big uh Xiinping um conqueror. I'm going to start uh he's probably going to have more military parades with this idiot dressed up with stolen valor. It's just unbelievable.

1:36 And the the Republicans surrounding him are terrible because they know better. But remember, they've always been neocons. And Trump ran as the anti-neocon. Like these wars are ridiculous. The Republican party's lost its way. I'm the peace president, etc., etc. Well, here he is with Lady Graham on Air Force One. And you guys, Venezuela has just put a little chum in the water. And now Trump and all of his sharks are circling and they have their sights set on more and more countries. Play the clip. And as to this commander-in-chief, he did something people talked about doing.

2:17 You just wait for Cuba. Cuba is a communist dictatorship that's killed priests and nuns. They've prayed on their own people. Their days are numbered. Okay.

2:29 They're going to wake up one day. I The fact that they're talking about going into Cuba is um obviously something that Marco Rubio wants to do and has wanted to do forever. But this sort of American foreign policy arrogance has never helped us. We go in, we wreck these countries, we raid their natural resources, we create a situation where these governments are destabilized, and then we have a mass migration situation that heads into the United States of America. And we create all of these problems at the expense of the American taxpayer. And this is what's so stunning about this entire regime. You have Pam Bondi tweets the following. She is the attorney general. Pop this up, Kylie. Nicholas Maduro and his wife uh Celia Flores have been indicted in the Southern District of New York. Nicholas Maduro has been charged with narotism conspiracy, cocaine importation conspiracy, possession of machine guns

3:32 and destructive devices and conspiracy to possess machine guns and destructive devices against the United States. They will soon face the full wrath of the American justice on American soil in American courts. Okay. American Justice. The same Justice Department that just pardoned a narot terrorist, the former president of Honduras. The same Justice Department that pardoned all of these January 6 felons who have since committed more and more and more felonies since the pardon. The same uh American justice system that pardoned President, and I hate calling him that, but that's what he is. President Kanks um we are giving credibility to this woman. The American arrogance, American foreign pol policy arrogance and right now incompetence is so alarming. And back to Lady Graham talking about uh nuns getting killed in Cuba and priests getting killed in Cuba. Let's talk about what the United States of America is

4:38 doing right now. We are kidnapping Venezuelans, which now this administration seems to care so much about, sending them to SECOT to be sexually tortured, and then when you have priests and uh pastors protesting ICE, ICE is throwing um these type of uh rubber bullets at them. So, are we any better? Are we any different? just we just prefer our style of dictator in orange makeup over Nicholas Maduro and I understand that there's a lot of elation in Venezuela and I can understand that if we had 20 years of this man ruling us any sort of liberation would feel phenomenal but you're being liberated from one abuser by another abuser and this is a fool's errand of the highest order because Donald Trump and his administration are thugs and robbers and this sort of situation that is happening in Venezuela is going to be like a contagion and they're not going to want to stop. He is already talking about people surrounding

5:49 him are talking about Colombia. They're talking about Cuba. And Katie Miller posts the following on her Twitter account and it's a picture of Greenland with an American flag over it and she says soon. So this is the the arrogance and the imshment of this administration that the wife of a an adviser to the president is posting this as though she has some insider knowledge. And let's remember, Kanks wants to do all of this stuff, not for you, not for the American public, but for his wealthy donors. And that is the biggest problem with this president.

6:31 Everything that he does is to either enrich himself or to enrich his billionaire friends. And they want the people who gave him money for the election, big oil, they want the oil in Venezuela. These are the people that say that you should get a job based on merit. They don't want to go to Venezuela and work hard and try to make deals. They just paid the president a billion dollars to help him get reelected so that he would go steal their oil. And now Wall Street is sending 20 executives down there to just rob away. We know that Elon Musk and all of these AI tech giants want the uh raw earth minerals from Greenland. So what are they going to do? They're just going to go take it for them. This isn't a meritocracy. These are thugs. These are thugs just like Putin. And here is Trump admitting that he told big oil before the strike and after the strike. He didn't tell the American people. He didn't tell your

7:34 Congress people. He told the people who he is running the government for. And he's not running the government for you, America. He's not running the government for you, MAGA. He's running it for himself and his wealthy friends, whether they be American or foreign. Those are the people he's interested in servicing. Play the clip

7:53 them before the operation took place. Yes. You maybe tip them off before and after. And they want to go in and they're going to do a great job for the people of Venezuela and they're going to represent us well.

8:06 They're going to represent us well. So, you're sending these Wall Street thugs who paid a deranged convicted felon president a billion dollars and this is what you have to deliver them. And this whole form of thuggery is going to be contagious. What is the difference in what we just did with Venezuela and what Putin is doing with Ukraine or what Xihinping is going to do with Taiwan? You are seeing a complete realignment. More than anything, this is very unpopular with the American public because we will pay for every single bit of this. His billionaire oil donors are going to get tax breaks. Uh the United States taxpayer is going to fund all of the robbing that we're going to do in Venezuela. And it's not going to enrich the United States. It's not going to enrich that taxpayer. It's not going to get their insurance premiums lower. All it's going to do is help these oil companies, which these people are trying

9:10 to have the United States of America weaken ourselves internationally by forming an a global kind of oligarchy where you have Russia, China, the United States of America against democracies worldwide. And Trump here he is talking about how the United States of America, the United States taxpayer who doesn't have healthcare and who has one of the world's largest wealth gaps. He is going to upgrade the infrastructure in Venezuela. And before I play this clip, I want you all to think about the infrastructure in the towns that you live in in the United States of America. Think about old airports that need an updating. And here is Trump talking about the infrastructure in Venezuela and you're going to pay for it.

10:02 Has killed a lot of people doing just that. Uh the infrastructure is old. It's rotted. Much of it is stuff that we put there 25 years ago and we're going to re be replacing it. And we're going to take a lot of money out so that we can take care of the country. Yeah.

10:19 Okay. I mean, we're going to take a lot of money out of the country. He's going to give it to his billionaire friends. And this is going to be a whole another [ __ ] American policy nation building. And the thing is is that people thought that Trump wasn't a neocon. And it turns out that all Republicans when they get close to money and they get close to power, this is the default setting. They all go to default to neocon Republican policies which have done nothing but uh build and increase the and balloon the national deficit, deplete the working class and destabilize Latin America. Nothing that we have done has stabilized the country and then it creates these unstable regions to where people want to immigrate to the United States of America and then you have these Republicans that then want to deport them all. It is utter insanity. And this guy ran on an anti-neocon isolationist policy and he's just gotten

11:23 a taste. He said it was like watching a movie. It was so fun. It was so amazing. in sitting in Mara Lago while they're monitoring Twitter in the background. These people are not serious. He's gotten a taste for this and they're not going to stop. 2026 is going to be horrific. And the Democratic messaging, I'm going to do an episode about that later, has just been anemic to its core in a response to this. But we have now a situation where Trump clearly uh wants all control of Venezuela until all of the oil has been stolen. They want to steal steal all of the oil and give it to American producers. And Maria Karina Machado is the woman who won the Nobel Peace Prize. And her party uh had an election and really she should kind of be the air parent of Venezuela. Trump is mad at this woman because she didn't defer her peace prize and give it to him.

12:22 So this is unbelievable. Pop up this tweet. Midas touch um is reporting I believe via the Washington Post. Sources close to the White House told the Washington Post Trump lost interest in backing Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Karina Machado to lead the country because she accepted her Nobel Peace Prize rather than demanding it be given to Trump which was viewed as the ultimate sin. This is this is so deranged and it's so demented on so many fronts that this man and his ego and his hurt feelings are leading the world's most lethal military force and every decision is by ego or how can he look cool to his billionaire donors. It's it's just it's so daunting being an American right now. And then when this first happened, I always think about as it pertains to United States foreign policy, what is the Russian link? And I don't just think about the Russia Russia Russia shift that Trump talks about. I

13:32 think about more recent um goings on with the United States and Russia, particularly the Alaska summit. And I saw how obsequous Donald Trump was to Vladimir Putin. And I saw that they were supposed to go to lunch. Putin took them behind closed doors and then tucked and rolled out and the American delegation was like reports where they were ashen. They looked terrified, etc. So, I did some digging and you may remember a um a person that worked in government named Fiona Hill in Trump 1.0. And here she is in a testimony in 2019 offering um a link between Russia and this Venezuelan situation. The best take on today's attack on Venezuela is likely the most cynical that it is staged and transactional. Trump wouldn't attack Russia's ally without permission. But in 2019, Putin offered Trump a swap. Russia seeds Venezuela and gets Ukraine. And here is her testimony to Congress under oath in 2019. The Russians at this

14:38 particular juncture were signaling very strongly that they wanted to somehow make some very strange swap arrangement between Venezuela and Ukraine. You want us out of your backyard. You're in our backyard in Ukraine. This woman Fiona Hill, you may remember, she is an expert on Putin and an expert on uh Russian foreign policy. This to me is such stunning uh back background on this because what Putin did during Biden's administration was try to position himself as best he could to get Ukraine. So, he started picking up with Trump exactly where he left off during Biden's term. Uh he Elon Musk was having multiple conversations with Vladimir Putin. At the same time, Elon Musk is buying Twitter. Elon Musk is investing over $300 million in Trump's campaign. Elon Musk is also colluding with other um tech oligarchs.

15:45 And they all seem to have the same motivation. Whether it's big oil oligarchs or tech oligarchs, it seems that they want a new world order where they dismantle democracies worldwide. The anti-European sentiment coming out of the Trump administration is horrific. And this congressional testimony from 2019 with Fiona Hill makes perfect sense now as you see what is happening because I saw a president in Alaska that was controlled and dogwalked by Vladimir Putin. And so now that he's being so provocative militarily, when I first saw the reporting of this, I thought, is Russia involved in this somehow? And then you dig deeper and you find this congressional testimony from 2019 and you realize they just stopped and figured out a way to get Trump back in.

16:38 He accessed all of these American tech oligarchs that have the same um desired outcome that Putin does. Think about Peter Thiel's statement that uh democracy is no longer compatible with the modern world. What is Putin's biggest problem? Democracies in Europe. So this is I think 100% connected and I think we're going to see the United States pulling more and more as we already have away from Ukraine because Putin and Trump have a quid proquo here. And then finally, I just want to leave you with how unserious these people are. So, the um Secretary of Defense Pete Hegsath, a former Fox News narcissistic host, this is what he says regarding this attack on Venezuela, an abduction of their horrible murderous dictator, President Nicholas Maduro. Um they killed 40 civilians. Okay. And this is what he says um regarding American military action. Play the clip. It's all on full display in the middle of the night.

17:47 Nicholas Maduro had his chance just like Iran had their chance until they didn't and until he didn't. He effed around and he found out. Okay. I mean, this is just this is a weak man, little dick energies man idea of what the United States military should be. They've gotten a taste for this and this sort of thuggery and robbery is going to be a contagion. They're not going to be able to stop themselves. Now, this is a new era for Trump where he is seeing what his toys, what the United States military can do. He described it on Fox News as watching a movie. And he's surrounded by these bloodthirsty, little dick energy, victim crying babies with emotionally stunted inner child problems that think if they can use big guns and they can use big bombs, it's somehow going to fix them and it won't.

18:50 and this contagion nationally with Putin and Xihinping and as it pertains to Ukraine and as it uh pertains to Taiwan, we are in very very dangerous time and I'm going to work on an episode later to talk about the democratic response because again like I said it's been anemic at best. But this is going to be a very very difficult 2026 to get us to the midterms. They are breaking and using everything they can with impunity. And we have to stay locked in. We have to stay engaged. And we have to put as much pressure as we can on our democratic leaders to put up a resistance to this regime, to this thuggery, to this thieving, to these complete war crimes. And to the people of Venezuela, I am happy for you that your dictator is gone. a man who caused murder torture horrible horrible things. Donald Trump is not the savior that you think he is. He sent many Venezuelans to a prison in El Salvador

19:57 called Secott without due process. These people were tortured. These people were sexually abused. This is all about stealing your resources. This is the grass may not be greener here. We have a dictator problem, a global dictator problem, and Donald Trump just happens to have the biggest guns and the biggest military. All right, stay focused, you guys. 2026 is going to be a rough ride. Please subscribe to our channel, leave us a comment to feed the algorithm, and we will be back later with more news.
