We have a tendency to always support the right wing because the Republicans are better than the Democrats. If Kamala Harris had won in 2024 and bombed Iran, there'd be riots; but with Trump, ninety percent of Republicans supported bombing Iran on Israel's behalf. Donald Trump is the matrix president. In 2016 Hillary Clinton, in 2020 Joe Biden, were matrix candidates; 2024 Donald Trump was. After October 7, the Jews knew that the Republican party controlled by APAC, controlled by Israel, and with Trump in office, they were gonna let Israel do whatever they wanted to do. Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and the media are all in on it because Trump is their matrix candidate. JD Vance is the Matrix candidate. They ordered Trump to nominate him. Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Tucker Carlson ordered Trump to pick J. D. Vance. This is what they don't want you to hear.

Speaker 1 asserts: "Yes. Yes. I mean, obviously, he fears for his life, and I was told that he feared for his life before the two assassination attempts, one coming within a millimeter of striking his head." He adds: "I mean, I've been told, yes, that Israel is a major source of concern for Trump." He warns: "If he suspended arms to a country that carries out assassinations all across the globe, that specializes in assassinations, that has an entire wing of its intelligence services, that conducts assassinations including with household goods like pagers, would you not be scared?" "So, yes, Trump is scared." He concludes: "And what I learned... is that during one of Netanyahu's many visits to The US this year, some figures in his retinue, Israeli agents, placed electronic devices on emergency response secret service vehicles. The secret service found them, they reported this to the White House. You know, these would be emergency response vehicles, that would respond to an incident potentially involving the president."

Dan Bongino highlighted why Israel is a focal point, arguing that unwavering support for Israel doesn't align with an "America First" agenda and hinders national freedom. A Fox News source suggested Epstein was an intelligence asset for Middle Eastern entities, possessing blackmail material of influential individuals. This blackmail isn't solely in Epstein's hands, but controlled by a foreign country, potentially compromising U.S. officials. High-profile individuals have shown stronger allegiance to Israel than to America. Despite some Israelis being supportive, many pro-Israel figures avoid addressing financial aid to Israel, which may be actively blackmailing the U.S. government. The Epstein case alone warrants severing ties with Israel until the truth is exposed, as blackmail compromises our government's integrity.

The person nearest to Trump is his son-in-law, Jared Kushner. Netanyahu was sleeping in Kushner's bed in the family home. Netanyahu is very, very close friend of Kushner's father, Charles Kushner, a real estate mogul who was jailed for illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion, and witness tamper. Jared has funded illegal settlements in Israel. A funder of APAC, he's got big business connections to George Soros, Trump. From day one, he handed the American economy to Steven Mnuchin as his treasury secretary, also an ultra Zionist. He named his own lawyer, the extreme Zionist David Friedman. Jason Greenblatt, he became US special representative for international negotiations, which include negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians. The Israeli regime is planning to push ahead because they own the president of The United States. This is the reality that we're facing.

Speaker 0 expresses a view on religion and national character, saying: “if a country doesn't have religion, doesn't have faith, doesn't have God, it's gonna be very hard to be a good country.” He adds, “This It'll be fixed. It'll be fine. You won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you Christians.” He states, “I'm a Christian. I'm a Christian. I'm a Christian.” He admits doubt about heaven: “I don't think there's anything gonna get me in heaven. Okay? I really don't. I think I think I'm not maybe heaven bound. I may be in heaven right now as we fly an air force, but I'm not sure I I'm gonna be able to make heaven.” He claims to have been “really saved” by “somebody very special,” and repeats: “A high beak. A high beak. A high beak.” Speaker 1 recounts the presidential oath ceremony: “When US President Donald Trump took its oath of office, he had his right hand raised, but his left wasn't on the Bible. But does it matter? Academics tell Reuters that it was an oversight and it doesn't have much practical impact, although the moment has gone viral online.” A professor is quoted that “the oath is to the constitution.” He notes that “Two bibles were held by Trump's wife Melania as she stood next to him at the ceremony.” Speaker 2 presents claims about Trump’s faith: “Trump converted to Judaism two years ago and joined Chabad Lubavitch Synagogue in New York City according to a high level White House official.” A figure named Mister Goldberg says the story has allegedly been held by CNN's editors for months, but will be released soon. David Elias Goldberg, a fellow at the Jewish Center of Antisemitic Study, has also interviewed the White House source. The source says Trump was pushed by Ivanka and Jared Kushner to join the faith; Trump initially resisted, fearing it would threaten his evangelical Christian base, but then changed his mind and “officially converted in early two thousand seventeen.” The ceremony was private and guarded for nearly two years. The White House appears prepared to release this information gradually, and by summer, Trump is expected to address his new faith in an evening televised news conference. He is described as “the most pro Israel president in the history of America,” having given Israel “every single thing that they wanted,” and being “about to give them war with Iran.” The question is raised: “Has he converted?” A Times of Israel article is cited: “Trump, the first Jewish president of The United States.” It is emphasized: “Now that's not us saying that. That's times of Israel.” The discussion notes that Times of Israel is a Jewish nation, and that “these people do like Israel.” Speaker 0 interjects: “Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.” Speaker 3 adds: “And he loves Israel too. Six years ago, I was up here. And I said, this is our first Jewish president. This is our first Jewish president. This is our first Jewish president. Not not consecutive. We”—and then Speaker 0 closes with: “thank you for everything, Joel. We thank you for everything.”

Speaker 0 asks why President Trump unleashed Prime Minister Netanyahu to resume genocide in Gaza, resulting in the intentional killing of 400 civilians. Speaker 1 believes Trump has no choice, due to agreements with major donors beyond Miriam Adelson, obliging him to underwrite Netanyahu's actions. Speaker 1 notes Netanyahu arranged a meeting between the U.S. and Azerbaijan, not the State Department, indicating the Israel lobby's grip. Speaker 1 believes Trump is obliged to comply and won't diverge. Speaker 0 asks if Trump has no choice but to militarily back Israel if it attacks Iran. Speaker 1 thinks so, noting the possibility of Israel precipitating a war with Iran. The expectation is the U.S. will reinforce Israeli actions, with joint strike planning and intelligence sharing already in place. Speaker 1 believes it's a foregone conclusion, though the timing is uncertain.

They question, "If they're our only real ally, why does Israel have a long history of transferring military technology, including American military technology to China? To China?" and ask, "Why is China running the Port Of Haifa, Israel's biggest port?" They claim "From Israel's perspective, we're not a close ally" and "The loyalty is not requited. It's one way." They say Netanyahu "has pushed it too far" and that "the governor of Israel, in particular, the prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has pushed it too far." They add "I control Donald Trump. I control the United States Congress. I control The United States." They cite Trump on West Bank annexation: "No. I will not allow it.

The speaker claims the release of the Epstein files is a psyop orchestrated by Israel because Trump is not sufficiently pro-Israel. According to the speaker, the Times of Israel suggests the files resurfaced and are overwhelming Trump because he criticized Netanyahu. The speaker says that while Trump bombed Iranian nuclear sites, he didn't bomb them for a full week as he should have. The speaker alleges that despite Trump's actions for Israel, it's not enough, and the Epstein list will be a problem for him because he messed with Israel. The speaker states that the Times of Israel implies Trump is being threatened by old files because he occasionally criticizes Netanyahu and his administration isn't fully compliant with discrimination against Christians in Israel.

The influence of Israelis and their control over the US administration and Congress is unquestionable. Netanyahu has more influence in the US Congress than Donald Trump and is getting everything he wants. There is a groundswell in Congress to back Israelis and Netanyahu, no matter what he's done.

Reportedly, Trump has cut contact with Netanyahu, feeling disrespected and manipulated. A Gulf diplomatic source claims Trump will announce US recognition of a Palestinian state. A general from Mar-a-Lago said APAC is being shut out, Walls tried to undermine Trump with Netanyahu, and the US may decouple from Assad and MI6. Trump dropped the requirement for Saudi Arabia to normalize relations with Israel for its nuclear agreement. State Department sources say a coalition is forming to recognize Palestine, prompting calls from APAC and Zionists to prevent it, which Trump has largely disregarded. The Trump administration sidelined Israel and held secret talks with Hamas, focusing on hostages and humanitarian aid. Israel responded that recognizing Palestine would force unilateral actions, warning of consequences for those who turn their backs on Israel, including Trump. The speaker speculates Trump may have read the Epstein files and realized Epstein worked for Mossad and politicians are blackmailed by Israel, which sealed his feelings of manipulation by Netanyahu.

Israel has significant leverage over Trump due to past financial dealings. Wilbur Ross, while associated with the Rothschilds, organized a bailout for Trump when he was heavily in debt. Sheldon and Miriam Adelson have also contributed $100 million to Trump's election campaign. This influence is evidenced by Trump's actions, including moving the US embassy to Jerusalem and recognizing the Golan Heights as Israeli territory, leading to the creation of "Trump Heights." It is claimed that Trump will sanction the Israeli annexation of the West Bank as part of an agreement. Trump is allegedly beholden to these interests due to blackmail and financial dependence. The speaker asserts that Trump did not vanquish the deep state but merely changed its personnel.

Donald Trump is prioritizing America First, not Israel First, and will no longer consult with Israel on Middle Eastern foreign policy. Trump believes Benjamin Netanyahu tried to manipulate the U.S. into war with Iran and caught Israel preparing to strike Iran without informing the U.S. Mike Walls allegedly spied on the Trump administration to coerce the cabinet into war with Iran on Netanyahu's behalf. Trump appointed Walls as UN ambassador to silence him. Trump is aiming for world peace and believes Israel is trying to drag the U.S. into more Middle Eastern wars. Trump is reportedly going to recognize Palestine as a state, which will anger Israel. Israel is not our greatest ally, but our deepest foe, and the CIA considers Israel the number one spy threat in the U.S. The World Banking Cartel and Jeff Epstein are tied together, but blackmail is no longer effective because evidence exists against everyone involved. The media can't lie anymore because people are waking up and have access to information.

The speaker argues that criticisms of Trump's appointees as Zionists are unfounded, as most politicians are, except for figures like Thomas Massie and Ron Paul. The speaker claims Trump's agenda is "America First," despite perceptions of him being controlled by Israel. The speaker asserts that the Rothschilds have brainwashed Americans via the Schofield Bible to support Israel unconditionally, making it impossible to win elections by openly opposing Israel. Trump's pro-Israel rhetoric is a necessity for electoral success. The speaker suggests Trump's actions reveal a "reverse infiltration counterinsurgency" against the "Zog." Past associations and seemingly pro-Israel actions are part of a larger strategy. Actions like taking down Epstein, pulling troops from Syria, destroying ISIS, opposing central bank digital currency, and being friendly with BRICS nations outweigh any concessions to Israel, such as moving the embassy to Jerusalem. The speaker believes Trump is initiating the downfall of Zog.

Donald Trump was working to bring peace between Iran and Israel, and Israel didn’t want that at all. They tried to murder the negotiators in that round of peace talks from Hamas in Doha, and they tried to tell the world that Trump signed off on this, that Trump knew, totally false. Trump did not know. Not only did they do this, they tried to implicate Trump in it. A couple of weeks later he responded with an executive order that I’m going to read verbatim because it’s bet not one in a hundred people knows this even happened. This was in September: he signed an executive order called the Assuring the Security of the State of Qatar. The order states: The United States and the State of Qatar have been bound together by close cooperation, shared interests, and the close relationship between our armed forces. The State of Qatar has hosted The United States forces, enabled critical security operations, and stood as a steadfast ally in pursuit of peace, stability, and prosperity both in The Middle East and abroad, including as a mediator that has assisted The United States attempts to resolve significant regional and global conflicts. Listen: In recognition of this history and in light of the continuing threats to the state of Qatar posed by foreign aggression, it is the policy of The US to guarantee the security and territorial integrity of the state of Qatar against external attack. The United States shall regard any armed attack on the territory sovereignty or critical infrastructure of the state of Qatar as a threat to the peace and security of The United States. Oh, wait a second. What was the last act of foreign aggression against Qatar? What happened that exact same month? It was a bombing by Israel. So Israel bombs Qatar and Donald Trump issues an executive order saying if you do that again, reading by the language here, we’re going to war with you. Donald Trump took the side of Qatar over and above Israel and told Israel, and who knows if he’d actually do it, it’s in the executive order, If you do this again, that’s tantamount to an attack on us. That’s a security guarantee. Keep that in mind because there are a lot of Trump voters who are upset about nine eleven; the residue was still in their mouth. That part of the world did it to us. Islam did it to us. And anyone who wants to have a normal relationship with an Islamic country is probably pro Al Qaeda. I get it. I know those feelings. Had them. But here Donald Trump, the guy that you voted for taking Qatar’s side against Israel. Why is that? Because Donald Trump is a secret Islamist? No. Because Qatar is a lot better for The United States than Israel has been.

Trump was considered good on foreign policy, including getting out of Syria and defeating ISIS, but he was always hawkish on Iran. Zionists wanted a full conflict with Iran but only got the Soleimani assassination. Despite popular belief, Trump was allegedly pursuing regime change in Iran throughout his term, even getting close to overthrowing the Iranian government. This was also happening in Venezuela. Trump ripped up the JCPOA, and the rhetoric now suggests that such events wouldn't occur if Trump were president. Trump is trying to run even further to the right, making it hard to say no to war with Iran. Iran will be in the crosshairs regardless of the administration, especially for Israel, making them more of a target for the United States.

A deep state apparatus, including the CIA, Mossad, and MI6, governs US foreign policy. Ukraine's attack on Russia's strategic nuclear bombers and Israel's attack in Tehran share the same origins and methods, indicating Mossad's involvement in both operations, with the CIA's knowledge. Despite claims of an "America First" policy, the US allegedly operates with an "Israel First" foreign policy, which is characterized as reckless and dangerous.

The transcript presents a fringe, highly charged discussion about perceived Israeli influence in the United States, Trump’s shift from “America first” to “Israel first,” and related political dynamics. The speakers repeatedly claim that Israel controls the U.S. government and American foreign policy, with several variations such as “Israel's controlling our government,” “Israel controls us,” and “The government of Israel controls The United States.” They assert that Israel has run American foreign policy for thirty years and that the United States government is taking edicts from Israel, describing it as an “Israel first administration.” As the discussion progresses, the speakers describe discomfort with America’s relationship with Israeli leaders, calling the Israeli government a “satanic regime” and suggesting it seeks to cause pain. They contrast Trump’s campaign promises of “America first” with his alleged current actions, arguing that he has escalated a war on behalf of Israel and turned on earlier allies who did not toe the Israel-first line. They claim Trump has allied with politicians and influencers who are unpopular with his former base, and that he endorses a “massive war on behalf of Israel that he promised he would never start.” They point to specific figures affected by these changes, including those who supported or criticized Trump and Israel. The discussion names individuals and entities linked to the shift, including Charlie Kirk. They claim Kirk was influential against the Iran war and withdrew support for Israel prior to his death; Erica Kirk allegedly took over TPUSA to continue Charlie Kirk’s legacy but allegedly did so in a way that opposes Kirk’s earlier stance, endorsing Massey’s Israel-funded opponent and labeling Massey a “rhino.” They argue donors pressured Kirk to change his stance, leading TPUSA to distance itself from Kirk’s legacy and to align with an Israel-funding candidate backed by Trump. The speakers claim broad consequences for Trump’s base: those who call for justice with the Epstein files, those suspicious of Israel, and those who question Erica Kirk are said to have been blackballed or marginalized. Conversely, supporters of the new Trump are described as urging to move on from Epstein, unconditionally supporting Israel, and reacting strongly to any critique of Erica Kirk. A recurring theme is a critique of Zionism as a political ideology; the speakers distinguish between “Israel” and “Zionism” and argue Zionism controls both the U.S. and Israel. They challenge religious claims that Israel is “God’s chosen people,” offering a Christian critique of that idea and asserting separations of church and state in the U.S. The discussion includes references to alleged silencing mechanisms, narrative control, and tribalism as a “SIOP” framework, describing three characteristics: silencing opposing ideas, a strong narrative, and tribalism. They illustrate these with examples such as censorship of anti-Israel sentiment or questions about Israel, accusations about a fixed narrative like “Israel is our greatest ally,” and the exclusion of dissenting voices. The speakers conclude by asserting that while Israel does not control the U.S., Zionism appears to influence both countries, and that the root issue is the influence of Zionism rather than a single country’s leadership. They urge viewers to speak up while suggesting the changes reflect a broader, troubling shift in political power, ending with a night-time sign-off and personal recovery product plugs being referenced but later deemphasized.

- Trump is described as completely dependent on two pillars: the central banking system and the Fed for day-to-day provision to run the government. However, this group is claimed to be reporting to the Netanyahu syndicate, with Netanyahu and his syndicate asserted as in total control day to day. - The speaker asserts that Netanyahu, during the pandemic, was “killing more Israelis than Palestinians,” implying a harsh evaluation of Netanyahu’s actions. - The claimed dynamic is that Netanyahu wants Trump to engineer a war with Iran, and it appears that they are attempting to do so. The speaker cautions that they do not see a winning outcome, suggesting that if a real war is pursued without boots on the ground, there would be losses. - It is suggested that any such loss could make the neocons more powerful economically, implying a link between military action and economic plunder by neocons. - The speaker outlines strategic options: since the East-West strategy failed and Russia was not imploded, the alternative is to shift to a North-South approach by targeting Canada, Greenland, and Panama. This is presented as the next step for reshaping global strategy, given the failure of the East-West approach. - Trump is described as “educating the American people about what you need to keep the model going,” indicating a role in informing or guiding public understanding of the underlying framework or system. - The overall plan is characterized as a program to plunder their own populations and, by extension, plunder around the world, with a current focus on plundering the United States big time. The speaker asserts that this is the trajectory of the “syndicate.” - In sum, the transcript presents a narrative in which Trump relies on a Fed-centered financial system controlled by a Netanyahu-led syndicate, which allegedly drives aggressive geopolitical moves (notably toward Iran) and global plundering, with strategic shifts from East-West to North-South as part of an ongoing plan.

Glenn Greenwald: CIA's Venezuela Coup, Trump Meets Lula & Epstein Whistleblowers | PBD Podcast | 674
Guests: Glenn Greenwald
reSee.it Podcast Summary
The conversation begins with Glenn Greenwald reflecting on the scarcity of whistleblowers like Edward Snowden and Julian Assange since 2013. He attributes this to the aggressive use of the Espionage Act by the Obama administration, which sought to destroy the lives of leakers like Chelsea Manning and Snowden, creating a climate of fear. Greenwald highlights Julian Assange's visionary understanding of digital leaks and the government's subsequent efforts to dismantle such journalism. He recounts Trump's near-pardon of Snowden, thwarted by establishment Republicans fearing declassification of sensitive files and conviction during impeachment proceedings. Greenwald then identifies five critical areas for future whistleblowers: the Epstein files (revealing global elite corruption), the allocation of billions in US aid to Ukraine, the US-Israel relationship, the CIA's activities, and the NSA's domestic spying. The discussion delves deeply into the US-Israel dynamic, with Greenwald arguing that US support is often detrimental to American interests, citing Israel's disregard for US policy on settlements and its extensive spying on the US. Patrick Bet-David offers a business analogy, suggesting Trump aims to diversify US alliances in the Middle East to gain leverage, treating Israel less like an "only child." The conversation shifts to interventionism versus non-interventionism. Greenwald advocates for non-interventionism, citing China's economic growth without constant foreign wars and arguing that US interventions primarily benefit the military-industrial complex, not the American people. He criticizes the US's historical overthrow of democratic governments and installation of dictatorships, using Venezuela as a current example where intervention is framed as liberation but serves other interests. Bet-David questions the feasibility of non-interventionism given global complexities and historical entanglements. Finally, the hosts discuss media consolidation, specifically Larry Ellison's acquisition of CBS News and Paramount, and his involvement in TikTok's ownership. Greenwald expresses concern over the centralization of media control in the hands of a pro-Israel billionaire, especially given declining public support for Israel among younger generations. He points to the appointment of a former IDF soldier to moderate TikTok content related to Israel and antisemitism. The podcast concludes with a brief discussion on Brazilian politics, Lula's relationship with Trump, and the ongoing political struggles involving former President Bolsonaro, highlighting US influence and transactional diplomacy in the region.
