FURIOUS Japan UNLEASHES FURY at Trump for MASSIVE FAILURE

What this episode is about

Japan is expressing deep frustration with Donald Trump's handling of U.S.-China relations, feeling neglected and vulnerable as Trump appears to capitulate to Xi Jinping's demands. Amid rising tensions, Japan finds itself isolated and concerned for its security, leading to military buildup and a call for the U.S. to reaffirm its commitment to defending Taiwan against potential Chinese aggression, a stance that Trump has failed to support.

Key takeaways

• Japan's military buildup screams volumes: Trust is like fine china—easily broken, hard to mend.
• Trump over Xi: Who knew AI chips could be kingmakers in a geopolitical chess game?
• Japan feels snubbed: When allies become sidelined, you start building your own sandbox—or military.
• Beware maritime maneuvering: China's naval force projects power, leaving ripples Japan can't ignore.
• Soybean saga: When diplomacy fails, even agriculture can't bridge a 20-million-ton gap.

Full transcript with timestamps

0:00 Japan is furious. Japan feels abandoned by Donald Trump. That Japan feels that Donald Trump is being consistently outmaneuvered by Xi Jinping. Japan feels that Donald Trump in this regime doesn't have their back. That Trump just fawns over Xi Jinping and does whatever Xi Jinping wants. He gives Xi Jinping and China America's, you know, most highly classified top-of-the-line AI H200 chips. And then Xi Jinping responds, "Thank you. I'll take some of those chips, but I still want to protect Huawei and some of our internal businesses, but thank you for like basically like like nothing in return."

0:38 And Trump doesn't realize he's getting played. And you know, Japan's also pissed that when China's top ambassadors are saying they want to cut off the head and behead Japan Prime Minister Takahishi, that the United States basically wasn't doing anything. Finally, the United States sent a plane over on Thursday, a B-52, to say, "All right, Japan, we hear you." But it took weeks and weeks and weeks and Japan building up its military before the United States did anything at all. So, let me just go through some of the things that went down. So, you had uh Japan few weeks back said, "Look, if China invades Taiwan, we may have to act to protect Taiwan." to which China said, "Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you threatening China by saying that you're going to protect Taiwan if we invade?" And then Xi Jinping called up Trump and said, "You got to tell your friend, Prime Minister Takahishi to shut up and watch

1:35 her mouth. She can't say things like that to China." And Prime Minister Takahishi thought that Donald Trump was going to have her back because you would think it would be the United States position that we're going to protect uh Taiwan even with strategic ambiguity. but we're still going to protect Taiwan. But Trump basically called Prime Minister Takahishi and told her that you and Japan need to be quiet. Stop saying these things about China. And then Japan immediately started building up uh its military cuz like okay, I guess we got to protect ourselves right now. We heard from Japan's defense minister over the past weeks. And then China started doing things like locking onto Japan airplanes in Japanese like air airplane air airplane space um with the Chinese radars. And so then Japan issued formal complaints and saying wait you're locking onto our planes like you're going to shoot them down. Japan

2:29 expressed concern after China deployed over 100 vessels across the East Asian waters just in the past week. The largest maritime show of force to date. um by China and the Japan defense minister also lodged complaints about the Japan about China locking on to the uh radar systems of the Japanese fighter jets. You have Japanese fighter jets scrambling to monitor Chinese and uh Russian air force joint patrols right off its coast and the United States remain mostly silent. In fact, what the US did recently as Japan was telling NATO, "Hey, you got to do something."

3:10 Now, we learned that the US is working on its own secret plan with Russia and China to create a counter to the G7 and to NATO, which Trump considers to be like his nuclear five. And maybe Japan would be in it, maybe not, but it would be led by Russia, China, and US. And notably, you wouldn't have the UK and France uh in there. And all the while, Donald Trump's giving China everything they want. I mean, anytime Xi Jinping calls China, it seems like we're giving giving giving. And China hasn't even made good on any of the things that Trump said they were going to do. Like, you know, they shut down buying our soybeans in 2024. They bought 27 million metric tons of soybeans. This year, even after Trump said, "All right, we talked.

4:00 We're cool." Maybe at the most it's five million metric tons. Some people say it's closer to one million metric tons of soybeans. In any event, it's like 20 million metric tons less than under former President Biden that was being bought. And they still in China have their export controls over their rare earth elements. Companies in the United States that have any affiliation with the military will still struggle to get some of those rare earths unless they basically beg China. And then when Donald Trump says, "All right, G, what do you want? we want the H200 AI chips that Nvidia is doing. Trump's like, "All right, we'll give it to you." And then rather than say, "Thank you." Even Ji Jinping's like, "Okay, we'll take some of them, but we got to protect Huawei and our internal businesses. So, we're just going to take your technology and give it to Huawei so they can accelerate their program quicker." Just this is all

4:47 going on. I think it's not getting any attention that that it deserves. And you have lots of countries, you know, in that are kind of developing a war. And I should mention too that you had Prime Minister Modi just if we're talking about this general region um meeting with Putin recently as well. Delighted to welcome my friend President Putin to India. Looking forward to our interactions later this evening and tomorrow. And so as the United States has isolated itself, screwed over our traditional allies in Europe who I don't even think are allies anymore after what Trump did to them. put out a national security strategy that basically attacks European sovereignty and says that uh basically we're doing regime change in Europe and that it's part of the sphere of influence of of Russia. You have all these other countries meeting with each other at the expense of the US who's getting much weaker. I want to bring in

5:38 Democratic Congresswoman and the ranking member of the House Foreign Affairs South and Central Asia Subcommittee Sydney Kliger Dove. We had you on recently to talk about another issue, but then afterwards you and I started talking about what's happening in Asia because these are massive seismic changes that are happening in the past few weeks, in the past 48 hours, there's massive shifts and really it's not getting enough coverage anywhere. So, I wanted to toss it to you to talk to us about what's going on after that intro.

6:07 Oh my god, Ben, what an amazing intro and tutorial it was. I just want to say that this is all about world domination and you have so many p superpowers around the world who are battling to control the world and right now you control the world when you control the computers when you are making the most um powerful uh and technologically advanced chips and computers around uh you are able to control the world because you're able to control defense. you're uh able to control like how things get designed and you can probably control like how people's votes get counted. Um and so what you're seeing is there used to be a time when we were trying to play nice with different parts of the world in order to keep the peace and now you have a president who is getting in bed with some of our biggest strongest adversaries and making them even stronger. So you talked about these chips and we are not talking about nacho

7:06 chips. We are not talking about potato chips. We are talking about the most advanced computing chips around. So data centers. So think about the movie Mission Impossible, right? In every single movie, you know, Tom Cruz is supposed to go to that mega computer hub and do something to save the world because that computer has maybe been hacked or some of the chips in it that are making it work have been taken over by the super baddies. So what's happening now is that Trump is actually selling those chips to the super baddies in the world or at the very least to our frenemies. So a little context when Biden was president he put together a very comprehensive and in fact very restrictive plan around giving selling these chips to countries around the world. And Republicans were squawking.

7:58 It was like going to the zoo and they were like hey Biden you're not doing enough. you're not protecting our national security. Oh my goodness, you're too old. And Biden was like, "Oh no, I'm putting together a really robust plan because I don't trust these people in other parts of the world." Fast forward to Donald Trump coming into the White House and he's selling these things like you sell Snickers on the corner. So in May, he went to the Middle East and he sold our chips to UAE and to Saudis. Okay? And then a couple months later, there was some announcement that the Saudis had invested about $2 billion into a crypto company run by Jared Kushner and the Trumps. And then a couple months later, this deal is announced about these chips going to Saudi Arabia. And just recently, he announced another deal, Donald Trump, that is, about chips going to China.

8:53 Now, let's also remember that in January when this president had his inauguration, who was sitting on the stage with him? All of these AI tech companies and their goal is to design and sell their chips. Their goals are not to protect our national security. They may say they care about that and don't want to do bad things, but their number one goal is to be a computing, chip designing, chipmaking superpower. and whoever buys their chips, you know, buys them. So, we have a president who was essentially selling our most powerful, most prized asset, these chips that we designed to countries that are out to get us, hey Ben, for a fee. Trump is getting a commission on selling away our national security.

9:44 So, the question then is, well, are we getting anything in return? I mean, you know, he says we're going to get 25% in the social media post. He said we're going to be getting dollar 25% sign. So, it's unclear what he's even talking to. 25% of what? But you even see what China did was not say, "Oh, yes, thank you. Flood the market with your chips." They smartly said, "Great, we'll take your technology, but we've got our own companies that are competing with you." One of them is called Huawei and they were expecting maybe 2028, 2030 to roll it out. But great, this will supercharge. So we'll take some of them.

10:24 We'll take Yeah. You want us to pay you dollar sign, 25% sign? Okay, we'll we'll buy five of them

10:31 and then and then we'll manufacture our own and and and checkmate. And it just seems So So what are we what's happening?

10:38 Yeah. So I feel like, you know, it's the morning after and you wake up and there's some dollars on the table and maybe you got a kiss. I think that's all we've gotten. Um, we have sold China the second most powerful chip around. So, this is not generic brand, okay? This is like name brand chips. We've come up with a deal there was a deal. The deal is not necessarily transparent. Of course, these Republicans are now silent. There have been no public briefings on these deals, the terms of the deals, the consequences for violating the deals. Okay, so we have sold them our second most powerful chip.

11:12 We have very vague asurances uh and there are no consequences if they do something bad. And there have been reports, intelligence reports that when the UAE got some of our chips that they actually gave them to China and China was using them to build super missiles. Okay, so this is bad. Um and what we've done is we haven't even sold them to US companies that are in those countries. we're actually selling these chips directly to the countries. So like, huh? And then the United States actually does have kind of like an auditing agency that monitors where these chips go. Um, but it's underresourced and we don't have enough money because we're not getting it from Donald Trump. Um, to make sure that we have enough people scouring the world to make sure that our chips don't go into bad hands. So, we are essentially like taking the word of our haters and fremies that they're not going to use our chips against us. Now,

12:14 real questions. Where's it? Who's getting the 25%. Is it going to build the rest of this ballroom? Is it going into the pocket of some like trust fund owned by Trump? Is it going to feed uh hungry children who didn't get SNAP benefits during the shutdown? Like, just tell us. But there's no information. And when all of this came out, there was a New York Times report that came out that said, "Hey, five alarms, you know, shady, shady, corrupt president." I authored a bill that said, "Let's investigate this because you cannot have a quid proquo." And I also authored a bill that said, "No 25% commission, yo, no fee for sale on our national security." And you know what happened?

13:00 No Republicans supported either of those bills. So when you hear a Republican talk about we need to be tough on China. I'm not going to tell you to slap them in the face, but I am going to say you should give them like a Cash Patel crazy look in the eye and be like you're shady and you're talking out of both sides of your mouth. Look, when the president of Taiwan needed to temporarily use US airspace on a trip to Central America, the US under the Trump regime denied the guy the ability to even fly through the airspace because Xi Jinping called and said, "Uh-uh, can't use your airspace."

13:38 So, and to me, that was a test that Xi Jinping was saying, "How much can I push?" Got it. I I own you. I control you with soybeans and rare earth elements. And it's not like it's not like those two things didn't exist under former President Biden. Biden just had a deck of cards which is America had its relationships with Europe and Canada and Australia and the rest of the world and we put on and Japan and we put on and South Korea and when China would do X US would bring all right let's bring in South Korea and Japan and have a trilateral and then we'll make our move.

14:16 So like we were doing things to check that and with Trump it's like all right what what Ji Jinping want me to do he's and Trump seems so thirsty like like uh like he needs this meeting with Ji Jingping in China so badly and Ji Jinping's like knows like man you want me really badly.

14:34 I know it's weird. It's I mean it's like look looking watching some very dysfunctional romantic relationship and you're like everyone just needs to get out of it. So when I talked about like world domination, I'm serious. China has been thirsty for Taiwan for a really long time. And so we've had like a quad, a little arrangement with Australia and Japan um you know to protect the waters to protect Taiwan. And so when China gets like funky, we've all raised up. So now to your point, China is still thirsty for Taiwan and trying to take it and Japan is like, "Yo, what will happen to our agreement the United States?" And Donald Trump is like, "Well, you know, I hate to tell you, but I'm getting punked." So, Republicans are getting punked by Donald Trump, okay? And he has no respect for them. And China is punking Trump and China has no respect for Trump. And then remember, China is friendly with Russia. Then we got all

15:34 frosty with India. So now Modi and India is like, "Okay, boo. I'm gonna take all of my people and my techsavvy and I'm gonna go kick it with China and Russia and the three of us are gonna punk you Donald Trump. And Donald Trump was like, "Okay, but I want to be friends with you all because you all are like autocratic dictators. So I'll sell you my chips and I'll call my friends and tell them just get slapped in the face when they come for you because I'm afraid of Xi." So it's like, and you're like, "Okay, where are the women in all this?" Because women ain't going to get punked. We're going to tell you, you better sit down.

16:11 Like, if that happened to me and I was president, I would be like, "Oh, no booze. I'm not selling you the chips. I'm not giving you our national security. I'm not giving you my people's data. I'm not allowing you to create a supercomput that will take over the world. And I'm not going to let you punk my friends. Donald Trump is not doing any of that for us."

16:30 And then Trump bring it to the Oval Office. Aim Munir the chief of staff of Pakistan's military who basically runs Pakistan. Why? Because Pakistan gave money to the world liberty financial crypto company of Donald Trump and his family. So we gave the extra FU to India so that the Pakistan crypto whatever they never even had a crypto they created a crypto fund to put it in world liberty financial and then Trump does the thing with simunir and Munir goes yes Donald you were the one who stopped the Indian Pakistan war you did it so Trump's like I did it and then Mod's like screw you didn't do it we did it what do you you didn't even have a conversation and you just look stupid to pretend that you had anything to do with this you know at at all. And by the way, when we do these fake, you know, with Trump's fake peace deal crap like that, like we like like China and Malaysia know that Donald Trump had

17:26 nothing to do with Cambodia and Thailand and that Trump swooped in and and so like we just look like a stupid weak person and then when it falls apart, Trump gets he looks stupid when he takes credit for it. And China and Malaysia are like, "All right, let's just let that fall apart so we can then blame it on him." And then he looks doubly weak. It just like it's a humiliation ritual everywhere. And Congresswoman, like no one in our corporate media talks about this, but this is the most important stuff that's screwing America for generations to come in. It's happening every day and it gets zero attention.

17:59 I'll give you the final. You and I could talk 10 hours. I know we can't. Well, you know, I don't like getting played. So, that's my thing. Don't play me. And the United States right now is getting played because you have a weak president who is much more interested in being applauded and lauded than he is in doing the work that a president should do to protect this country. So we have folks who come here from all around the world who say, "I really believe in the values of the United States and I want to help you be innovative. I want to help you create things." Those folks no longer feel connected to our country because of what Donald Trump is doing. So that brain power, that innovation, the people who make computers, who come up with ideas for movies, all of these fascinating things, who are professors and lecturers, they're going to these other countries because these other countries

18:44 say, "I now have Donald Trump under the thumb of my hand." We do not talk and corporate media does not talk enough about the world and what's happening globally and how these decisions impact us. You have a president who is selling your data, your national security to countries that want to do us harm and in exchange he is getting money and we don't know where that money is going. So tell us, just tell the American people and let's connect the dots because if we are here with an isolationist policy, only thinking about what's happening in America, and by the way, what's happening in America? ICE raids, not giving farmers the money that they're due, taking away our healthcare, dismantling our education, making us stupider, making us poorer, making us sicker. If we're isolated and just focusing on all of that and all of the countries around the world are either working together to stop us from hurting

19:42 them or they're working together to destroy us the rest of the way, then we're screwed. And all I'm saying, Ben, is thank you for talking about this so that we can help the American people see that we're getting screwed from the left. Well, not from the left and the right, but we're getting screwed from both sides of people who no longer want to be our friends and enemies that we have made stronger.

Questions about this episode
