Welcome to the program. was flying back. This track that you're listening to, if you're listening terrestrially, the bumper music we're playing into the segment, is a track from Boy George, who follows me on X. Interestingly.
So does George Clinton of P Funk. I don't know why, but yay. But yeah, he follows me on X, and he released this song called We Will Dance Again. And it's a pro-Israel song. And he started getting crazy hate for it.
And I mean, I'm was looking at the lyrics and I'm like, okay, he's not wrong. He isn't wrong. That's one of the reasons, by the way, that. I mean, I've always wanted to go to Israel because I wanted to see where my Savior walked, right? I wanted to see what Jesus saw.
I mean, we were literally in the Sea of Galilee and we were in Capernaum. And I'm going to try not to roll through all of this so fast that Juan can't show you some of the photos that I took. I'm so sorry, Juan. But It is It's crazy when I mean it's you grew up reading the Bible. And then you grow and then as an adult you watch documentaries and you see photos and you hear about, you know, where all of these locations are.
And then when you are there and seeing it in person, it is Just, wow, it is just like we were on the pilgrimage road. And these are Multi-thousand-year-old stones. And there's certain things that There That scholars have agreed on certain places. Like there's a little bit of debate about Gogatha, right? Where the site of Jesus' crucifixion.
A lot of people think it's in Church of the Holy Sepulchre, but there are some, you know, there's some debate about it, but I'm just saying. The pilgrimage road is one thing they all agree on. They're like, yeah, if Christ came into Jerusalem, he was walking on this road. And to be there is insane. They just found.
for instance, in the newly excavated City of David, They found these um Clay seals. Not wax. clay, which, you know, when there was a fire when Jerusalem was raided and uh the fire, what does it do? It hardens clay.
So it's a very good thing it wasn't made of wax. But they found these seals literally from his kingdom that bared his insignia. And Juan's preparing you. I mean, that's just part of the pilgrimage. I mean, there's several different parts of it.
We were even underground at one point. That is me because the sun was so hot. And when you're in certain parts of the city, it's respectful to keep your shoulders covered. There were also, and I don't know if we have, and this is stuff I'll show you over. the coming days but At the newly excavated city of David, I'm going to be realistic with you.
There were some things that really struck me as being very interesting.
Some of those were. Like uh for instance, all of the people that are paying to Have These sites excavated and maintained. And we were in the city of David. And by the way, the Trump administration had declared that area to be part of America's Judeo-Christian heritage. And there are some people who I think illiteracy is rampant.
They don't understand what the term Judeo-Christian means. It's literally like the corpus of the work, Old Testament and New. Jesus came to fulfill the Old Testament. He did not come to strike it out. He came to fulfill it.
And I think the people that take issue with that are actually denying Christ. And with, you know, I'm happy to debate you on that all day, every day. But It is acknowledging that, you know, the, you know, I mean, I don't think anybody disputes that Jesus was a Jew. I get that there's rampant griperism in this nation, but trying to rewrite God's history is an attack on God. Um And I don't have time for demonic forces that want to push that stuff.
There is a brain rot that is being peddled, and we could have a discussion about it all day long, but long story long. This Insane sight, the city of David, where you're literally standing on the road where Jesus walked and it's being preserved, is pretty stunning. I could not go to Bethlehem. where my Savior was born. There were certain areas that I couldn't go to.
because it was not considered safe. But I could go. to the stations of the cross. I could go to the garden tomb. I could go to the pilgrimage road.
I could go to Nazareth and it was okay. And the big question is why is that? And it's because of who is where and who governs what. It is There's a lot of discussion about things over there, and I think honestly, people need to go over there. You need to go there and you need to see.
If you're a Christian, I think it's important that you go. I think it's important that you go and you see where Jesus walked. I think it's important that you go and you see where Jesus ministered. We were literally at the pool where Jesus healed the blind man. That's another place where scholars are in pretty uniform agreement that this is that historical pool where the blind man was healed.
And it's at the very end of at least what was excavated, that part of the pilgrimage road. It was absolutely, it's overwhelming and stunning to be there. And you have people in Israel, you have Israeli Jews and Jews from America that are literally paying to excavate, maintain and protect these sites. But I can't go to Bethlehem to visit the site of my where my Lord and Savior was born because it is basically under the Palestinian authority.
So For the people who I I was there, I didn't see anybody apartheid. People who talk about apartheid over there have no clue what they're talking about. You, I'm embarrassed for your ignorance. You should be publicly ridiculed into silence until you become a better educated person. When you're bearing false witness like that, you're betraying your faith.
Don't be ignorant. And when you choose ignorance in this age of information, that is a very bold stand to take. That's a bold choice to choose deceitful demonic ignorance. Over easily accessible truth. There's no apartheid over there.
None at all. Absolutely none at all. I saw in Jaffa. A mosque? and a monastery side by side.
overlooking the docks at Jaffa. I mean, we Had lunch, and Juan's getting ready to show you one of the churches in Jaffa, and right around the corner from this church. Right around the corner from this church is a mosque. There were several mosques, several churches, literally within, like just a hop, skip, and a jump away from each other. There was no apartheid.
No one was sectioned off there. I don't think people understand what the word apartheid means. You mean you literally have Muslims that are serving in government there. It was just interesting to see that. I wanted to go, I like the history of it.
I wanted to see that history. And you experience and see all of that stuff while you're also experiencing biblical history because it's there and you're experiencing it and you're living it. But for all this stuff with the leftists, they talk about, oh, there's the party, it's an apartheid state, it is not an apartheid state. We were in predominantly Muslim areas.
Now, just like anywhere. You will have people that tend to, you know, I mean. Like any other city, they will choose to live with people of their own background or choose to live by people of their own background. That's how you have Little Italy, New York, or you have Chinatown, or you, you know, in St. Louis, where we grew up.
The largest Bosnian diaspora, the largest population outside of Bosnia, is in St. Louis. And Cain, where do they all live?
South St. Louis. It's just a choice. I mean, that's just how it is. They're free to move there and they choose to move to those particular neighborhoods.
Same with Israel.
So I didn't, there was no apartheid. There are literally people who serve in the Knesset who are Muslim.
So, I don't know where these people are getting this. I didn't see any of it there. I was everywhere. I was in every type of neighborhood. I went to the Florentine because I wanted to see, you know, there's some famous graffiti there.
And I wanted to see some of that artwork and hear some of those stories and see some of that, which was that was a crazy neighborhood. I wanted to see Jaffa and the history there. And you can't, I mean, there are mosques and churches that coexist side by side.
So I have zero idea what people are talking about. But where I did see separation was like in Judea and Samaria, is what they prominent, what, what. Westerners recall the West Bank. You have sections A, B, and C. Section A is under the quote-unquote Palestinian Authority, and they run civil and security.
And then B, they run civil, and the Israeli government runs security. And then C, Israel runs civil and security. And you can't go in A. While there's a red sign, there's one of the pictures where they have a giant red sign outside. And I was talking to an Israeli Arab who is Muslim.
And I was saying, well, is it safe to go there? And they told me I would not dare. And they're like, because you aren't Jewish, you're not Israeli, you can go in there, but because you're Christian. And you're an American, you all you still might get some trouble. It's not safe to go there.
You can't go there. And no one can guarantee your security if you go there. This is one of the red signs right outside. Section A. In Judea and Samaria, aka West Bank.
It's not safe to go there. Now the day after we were there Someone from one of those areas. got into a fight with a group of hikers. And a father who was an IDF reservist was killed trying to protect the hikers, and there's video of it, and it's horrible. There's a lot of tension there.
And those areas.
Some of the areas you wouldn't even know, and the other areas, you do. There's a lot of tension there. So You can't help but notice it when you're When you're going to all, when you're following basically Jesus' footsteps in the Holy Land. You see all of this other stuff because history and then Modern you know, culture exists simultaneously. It is Such a crazy thing.
One of the other big things that I noticed is, and I've traveled. pretty extensively around the world. Out of every place that I've ever been. I think Israel most closely resembles the United States. And here's why.
Not just because they have democratic processes, obviously, they have a different structure of government, parliamentary process. But what does an American look like? If I ask you that, what would you say? What does an American look like? I mean, there's a lot of different answers for that, right?
What does an Israeli look like? I think everybody on the left tends to think that Israelis look like Adam Sandler. Or Mel Brooks, maybe. But it's not the case. I interviewed.
One of the hostages at the Nova site, she's an Ethiopian Jew with bright blue eyes. On my last night there, we were in, the word for it is shook, but it's like a marketplace. Think of like Chicago's loop. or Del Mar Boulevard in St. Louis.
It's like that. And there's all these shops, and I had one of the best chicken sandwiches of my life. It was so good. And had my Cold Coke Zero because it was hot. And I'm sitting there across from a huge group of Israeli Ethiopian Jews There were some French Orthodox students literally like sitting down several tables from us.
And then this kid with the legit the reddest hair I've ever seen in my life, like Ronald McDonald red. Ultra Orthodox. playing with one of his siblings.
So It is The fact that you have so many different types of people living in the same area. It really did remind me Of the US in that regard. And the other aspect of that that reminded me of the US. Is that all of those people they identify As being Israeli, Christians, Jews, Arabs. Bedouins I mean, the last day there we hung out with this Bedouin who loves Trump.
and son served in the IDF. Better one.
So, what does that look like? I mean, it's very similar to how it is in the United States. It's not without issue. Definitely they got issues. You know, there's a big thing with the ultra-Orthodox over there and the Orthodox, it's a whole big thing.
I'm not interested in their politics. I'm interested, I mean, I was interested in actually like walking where Jesus walked, but as you do it, you see all this other stuff that's just there because it's all right there. It was very fascinating. Uh and that that That was one of the things that I was really surprised at. Like, just how, I mean, everybody's right on top of each other in that way.
Our partners that bring you the program, it's our friends over at Ghostbed.
Okay. Every place that we stayed when we were traveling was nice. It was not my ghost bed mattress.

uh in the southern part of Israel and um was looking at the Gaza border. And one of the things that really uh kind of blew my mind. Was I mean first everything is so incredibly close. And Surat is that town where When Hamas came over, and broke through the fence. And what Juan's getting ready to show up is a photo I took of the Gazan border, and the reason why there's a lot of destruction that you see at that buffer area is because.
of the terror tunnels that existed beneath it. And I mean For three days, the town of Surat. in the southern part of Israel was overtaken. And you can see some of the fence there. in the photo that if you're looking at the simulcast.
They dro they rolled into the town and they immediately targeted the police station.
Okay. and they besieged the police station. And um The IDF had to really just like blow it all to Kingdom Com because they were so entrenched there. It's like a fortress. But this town, Surat, is they're healing, they're rebuilding, and they're coming back.
And uh Just wild. We were in the roundabout, for instance, where you saw a video of trucks coming in. We saw um And as I said, when I went over there, I went with a Christian group. And I put the wheels in motion like months ago because we always wanted to go over there. Mike, I'd like to go over there before everything kicks off.
You know, heaven forbid, because what if you can't get? I mean, right now there aren't even American flights that go there. You have to fly to the East Coast and then their El Al Airline, whether in New York or Newark or Miami or whatever, you fly there. And then in El Al, they're booked all the way up until November. You can't even get a flight there or back.
from LL until like November. Yeah. That's why the flight cancellations and all the stuff happening had me really unnerved. And we put the wheels in motion because I wanted to go. And I was asking friends of mine that had been before: well, who did you go with?
Like, what tour guide did you use? All of that stuff. And then I also wanted to talk to some people while I was over there. You know, whether it was survivors and Israeli Arabs and Christians and Jews, because. You hear so much.
I d I I don't want to have News filtered through some podcast host who can't even get off his fat ass to leave the airport. Or an activist or anything else, legacy media. And I wanted to see for myself. And I also said, You know, like I wasn't, was not organized with the government, was not paid for by the government, was not paid for by anything like that. I was not compensated, nothing of that, nothing of that.
Yeah. And I also have zero interest with Promoting any other nation's interests above my own. But I view the alliance as being important because they're a firewall over there. If you don't believe it, you haven't been. I I mean they are Kind of like the last gatekeepers over there, for the lack of a better way to put it.
And I think it is spiritually and intellectually obscene. Should any transparent search of truth be sinfully presented in a maliciously dishonest way. for another person's undisclosed agenda. That's what you gotta think of.
So we'll be talking about everything that I've seen in the days to come. Um But it is A very joyfully defiant nation. The other thing that struck me is. Like I said, I could not go to the birth of my Lord and Savior, where my Lord and Savior was born. It's under Palestinian Authority control, my security is not guaranteed there.
How interesting is that? The Israeli Jews Christians and Arabs, Israelis. They're the ones that are excavating, maintaining and paying to steward these sites. It's the truth of it. That is the truth of it.
I can go anywhere, they allow you to go anywhere. But if it's under PA control, you can't. Your security isn't guaranteed and you will not be treated well. And I was told that by people who lived there.
So I found that. That's a big difference. You can't hide from that. You can't make that up. I was there.
I saw the checkpoint. The signs. I was told by other people who were actually legitimately concerned. For my safety, I was in a shop a Bedouin shop owner in Nazareth. I had to go get, I needed so badly a CokeZero.
Cause after a while, you only can drink so much water, and it's like, I'm done with water. I needed a CokeZero. Walked into the shop, I was talking with this Bedouin owner. They have really been struggling because of COVID, lockdowns, thanks, Fauci. and the conflict.
And we were talking about, you know, we're in Nazareth, I would like to go to Bethlehem. And oh, he was very concerned. He was like, no, no, no, no, no. Not the time, not the time, no, no, no. He was very concerned.
Not just him, but his son, who was also in the shop. Very concerned. It's wild. You can go the places that are not under PA's control. You can go there and you don't have to worry about your safety.
If it's under PA control, pretty much write it off. You can't fake that. You can't BS me that through the media. I've been there and seen it. I don't know what to tell you.
That was the only apartheid I saw. When we talk about apartheid, let's talk about how Christians can't visit certain places because the Palestinian Authority can't guarantee their security. Palestinian, you want to talk about apartheid? That's the apartheid. That is the discrimination.
That is in Israel. is from the PA.
So, I don't want to hear about it from any of these terror-loving, goat-fornicating simps. It's An interesting country. As I said. There's disagreement over ultra-Orthodox military service and the subsidies. They have anger over their own government about the October 7th stuff, and there's genuine.
heartbroken fear About whether or not the US is going to remain an ally. And what was interesting Two. is I wore my cross necklace out w and I prayed publicly. I was treated so kindly, and dare I say, I think even more so because they were like, oh, Christian, and then they found you're an American Christian. Then it's even more so.
There were people who are like, I love Trump. Or they would try to tell you about the states that they'd visited, or depending on where you were, like in Nazareth, they would try to tell you about pop culture that they had memorized, American pop culture. There's so much psyop. That completely conflicted with what I experienced when I was there. that is completely contradicted by reality.
And you know, you know, if you travel at all, nothing is better than physically immersing yourself in an area to. really Experience it. And I'm happy to be back in the U.S., definitely so. And I'm grateful to everybody for their hospitality because we intruded on their lives asking questions and experiencing this. And people were, you know, so happy to tell you about all of these amazing historic sites.
I mean, you're there, I just can't. It's just amazing. There's no words for it. It changes you. But The only weirdness and the only tension that I saw was from one subgroup of people that were there.
The other thing is this. One of my As an American, and like I said, I'm not interested in promoting anybody else's. Policies. I just don't know how you live with people who hate you so close. You know, if you if Mexico had attacked us.
Now I think the equivalent. If you do the math, the equivalent of the number of people who were killed on October 7th, it would have been like 40,000 in the United States, adjusted per capita. That's how many people were killed. And Israel. You would have had thousands here.
If you would have had Mexico or cartels or whatever, Mexico attacking part of the United States and there would be thousands. How do you think Trump would respond to that? How would he respond to that? There would be no question. Hell, how would other people respond to that?
But They can't, they get told that, and imagine the world telling the United States: well, you can't respond this way, you're such bullies. You can't respond that way to constant provocation. constant. Breaking of ceasefires. One of the things that I was asking the survivors and the hostages was this: I had two questions.
I said Did anyone try to help you? in captivity. Everybody told me no. I said, was anyone at least kind to you. While you were in captivity.
The answer was no. It is Generational. And I've told you this before. I don't know how you deal with that. You also cannot have the Palestinian Authority run a damn thing.
The reason they haven't had elections is because they are going to lose to Hamas. I've told you that. everybody I talked to and I asked about it. I'd ask people about that going around like shopping for souvenirs. When I was talking with Israeli Muslims in Nazareth, I sat down and talked to them.
Hamas is exploding in popularity in West Banker today in Samaria. in sections A and B. Section A, as I told you, the PA runs Operational day to day and security. B, it is the PA that does operational day-to-day but Israelis-run security. And then C, it's all Israeli-run.
An A and B? Hamash sentiment's exploding. They're very well supported. If they had an election, they would win. They would run all of it.
You can't reconcile that. How do you live with that? How would you live with that? The other thing that really shocked me is wherever you go. all over.
There are These like bumper stickers everywhere. When I was sitting in this market. On my last day, eating a chicken sandwich and drinking a Coke Zero and talking with some friends and my husband. They were across right from me in their stickers, and they are stickers that memorialize every single one of their IDF soldiers that they have lost since October 7th. And oh my gosh, they are everywhere.
They're on every light post, they are on every garage door, they are on every bomb shelter. Juan, you got the pictures of the bomb shelter, throw that one up.
So when we were in Surat and we went down to the Nova site, There were all of these bomb shelters on the side of the road, and one in particular. had at one point twenty seven people crammed into it. This is the picture I took standing outside. Those are some of the stickers you can see that I was telling you. There was um A group of people who fled the Nova site, they ran in there.
By the way, one of the people that was on the strip with me is my friend Jason Rance, who will be on the show later this week. And they all Crammed into this bomb shelter, Hamas was trying to bomb them out. Four of them were kidnapped. Seven only survived, because they hid under the dead bodies of their friends. If you're watching the simulcast, that's where they hid.
There was one soldier who stood at the door, like Gandalf, you shall not pass, and was throwing the grenades back at Hamas, and he ended up losing one of his arms. He was also one of the four taken by Hamas, taken into Gaza. His family saw him on video several days after, but he never unfortunately made it out of Gaza. The stuff that we saw, I saw some video that was not made public. Heard some calls that were not made public.
The amount of cruelty Demonic is the only word that I have. You can't negotiate with demonic. There's no coexisting. with demonic. There's no ceasefire.
with demonic. There's no entertaining the idea of peace. with demonic. And that's a thing they're going to have to figure out. and there are elections coming up in October.
But like I said all of this graper nonsense? That I keep hearing from people who've never left their own county. People whose entire worldview Comes from the backwoods remedial. Mostly illiterate insight of Nepo babies who do podcasts. Or former race hustlers who used to dox conservatives.
Over Gamergate? That's not a substitute for actual fact and reality.
So That's what I saw. And that's what I experienced. And, like I said, there are certain things you can't unsee, and certain things that can't be changed. But the upside is life goes on. And people have to continue.

Your lovable hostess here with you. We are back behind the mic, and we're talking a little bit about the. trip that we had. Just this past week, coming out of Israel, seeing all the holy sites. It was amazing.
And then, of course, let's check in with POTUS real quick. Because while we were over in Israel, I'm like, are we gonna be able to get home? Because, well, listen. The president told Fox News, quote, we are going to beat the effing S out of them. He went on.
No, Kane and I. We're trying to figure out what POTUS meant. The feelings shaky out of them, the funny snot out of them. I don't know. Like, there's.
So many. Yeah, the freaking's not. I think he meant freaking. I did too, because you know, POTUS always is very soft with his tone. He sure is.
And his words, you know. He's anything. Yeah, I mean, it's just everybody knows that.
So, as you know, with Iran launching a surprise attack on U.S. forces, which they immediately regret. Because it's the U.S. debate. Can I just say, whenever I come back to my country, from traveling abroad.
Whether it's in Amsterdam or Norway or in Italy or in Spain or wherever. Or in the Caribbean, even coming back to the United States, it's like. You can just see the muscles on this country. I don't know how else to put it. The air is different.
You come back and you're like, man, my country is badass, right? Yeah. I don't I mean, the air smells different. I swear, like when we got back, I saw like an eagle. I don't think I did really, but you know, my mind.
I mean granted we got third world air travel, but whatever. You know, it's just such a badass country with our badass highways. our giant badass cars. Everything. You know, it's, I do have to say, Texas has an outsized reputation, apparently.
Did I do? Yeah, because when people found out that we've lived in Texas, they were like. They were like, did you bring your, do you have all of the guns? That's something they act, and they think everybody from Texas owns horses, and they're all cowboys. and they were immediately scared of Texans.
And we were talking to this Bedouin dude when we were over there, and he was like. Just very, he goes, I feel like I need to be very polite. He goes, you know, because of the Texans and what they say about them. And my husband's like, oh, it's all true. Oh, it's all true.
It's funny. But This Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
So they launched these ballistic missiles, surprise attack on U.S. forces. And then of course we we Iran did not enjoy the response. CENTCOM, etcetera, along with the Saudis. The Saudis joined in.
The Saudi Arabian Armed Forces, along with U.S. Central Command, conducted precision strikes this was just yesterday against Iran-aligned terrorists, the IRGC. It was a U.S. and Saudi fighter aircraft that struck multiple terrorist logistics and weapons sites across eastern Iraq, which by the way, Iran was that these strikes, they apparently colluded with Iraq. Strong response.
To these over 30 different IRGC drone attacks that took place previously within a 72-hour period. They said that from February through April of 26, there were more than 600 attempted attacks on U.S. citizens and facilities by Iran-aligned terrorist militias in Iraq.
So POTUS is threatening them. I'm all about seeing that because the Iranian regime is 100% behind the destabilization, has been for, we've talked about this our whole lives, has been. for this whole area. for this entire area.
So, not only were they taking on proxies in Iraq, but the Saudis were involved to protect their own interests. I found that to be very. Not that they haven't been involved before, but they were really involved with it this time. The Saudi Arabian Armed Forces.
Now, there's a lot of discussion about stockpiles. This is one of the things we're going to be talking, and we'll bring up with Yates. We also have a big conversation about this coming up Thursday. People were saying that this was a leaked report. I don't necessarily think that it is a leaked report because this has been known for some time of the issues with our pre-war stockpile and certain key munitions and how much was given to Ukraine, et cetera, or whatever.
The interceptors were the biggest things. They say the interceptors are the most exposed, 80%. Uh the discussion was about 80% of uh fad. The these interceptors, particularly, they're talking about and the Um um supply that we have About 80%, 190 to 290, this is what I was looking for, 190 to 290 of 360 total. They said about 61% of, I guess, what, the Patriot missiles are gone.
I think that was like 2,330. They said that the long-range strike weapons were depleted.
Now, there's a lot of back and forth over this. There are some who say that they aren't. There are some who say that they are. I think that the truth lies somewhere in the middle. It doesn't mean that the United States can't also increase sourcing and production.
But I do feel that the meat is, the reason why I'm being very careful about this. Is there are some people accusing? I mean, some people are outright saying Vance's can't bleak this. Did you see that? Yeah, you saw some of that.
I Don't know if you can leak something that has already been somewhat reported. Because we've talked about this before in some of our previous conversations, especially, I think it was probably about six months ago. I was looking back at some of my notes. And we were, and the Thad, by the way, that's thermal high altitude interceptor Thad. Discussion was how much of that we had left.
And this was, actually, I think we talked about it under when Biden was still president. And what that would because it was reported then by conservative leaning sites out of concern that POTUS was kind of going through, and not Trump POTUS, but Biden at the time, that he was going through this as it pertained to sharing stuff with Ukraine.
So I think the truth falls somewhere in the middle of that. the manner in which it was pushed from DC and maybe by whom might be consequential. But at this point, I'm okay if Iran thinks that we don't have any and we do. I don't want our enemies to know what we have. I would love for them to think that we don't have any so that when we do beat the effing S out of them, as POTA said.
Potas said it came.
So I can say it too. That They don't anticipate it or they don't expect it. I mean, you got to think. I mean, sometimes in an informational battle and the fog of conflict and the fog of overabundance of information, there might be some baiting on purpose for that. But that's one of the things we'll touch on with Yates.
And we also have a big conversation about this coming up just this Thursday with General Kellogg.
So we're going to discuss that with him.
So the Iranian Americans are wanting Trump to finish the job. Iranians are wanting Trump to finish the job. I got to say, being over in Israel this past week, they love POTUS. They love POTUS. I saw POTUS hats.
Everywhere POTUS stickers POTUS kippas, there was like literally Trump kippahs. All kinds of stuff. People love Trump over there. They, I mean, that was, which I wasn't, I mean, we kind of heard that. I mean, we all kind of knew that they did, you know, that Israelis did anyway, but it was interesting to see it when you were over there.
And it's reflected in all the shops. I saw people buying Trump stuff over there. All kinds of like tourists buying Trump stuff over there.
So it was kinda I mean they were name it and there was a Trump version of it. I'm not joking. Like there was one store that sold basically like How do I put it, Trumpized version of Jewish everything? Right? There were like special trump plates and all ki I was just saying that they're It's very interesting.
So, but the Saudis are involved. We're going to keep an eye on all of this.
Now, in the meantime, Netanyahu was in the United States. Lindsey Graham had his service yesterday. Uh Netanyahu is meeting with POTUS. And other members of government. This is all after, too, you had Mamdani who was threatening him.
Threatening him with arrest. This was Netanyahu just earlier about his meeting with POTUS, CUT 13. Listen. I don't think the world's seen anything like it. And, you know, you met with the president today.
Yeah. How'd that meeting go? It was great. It was one of the best meetings that we've had. And I always, you know, I always hate to disappoint.
uh our would-be critics uh who are trying to find you know cracks in our alliance and what they find like today. Is a wall of granite, you know, because the president is so clear. I mean, he's so, we have a common commitment. We don't want to see this. fanatic regime in Tehran have nuclear weapons to threaten Every American And to threaten the peace of the world and to threaten the existence of Israel.
So we have a common goal. And it's going to be achieved, either through diplomatic means or other means. But we're both committed to that. And that's what that's the main headline that I would tell you from this. Do you believe that?
Now, the other big thing that took place when we were over there, and there was, in fact, one of the interviews that I had, and it ended up getting Um Somehow, Fox got a hold of it. But I was talking with one of the Nova survivors. And was asking her about you know, different you know, her her experience, her recovery, and she voluntarily went off. On Ma'am Donnie.
Now, as you remember, and we're gonna have that video for you here shortly. Uh the New York City mayor, I think he believes that. I don't, does he understand what mayoral powers are? Apparently, not. You're not the president of the United States, right?
You're not the president of the United States, who I don't think he really understands what his powers are. He decided to threaten Nanyahu with arrests, all this other stuff. You have 9-11. I mean, he's. It's really popping off up there.
You had two different, I would say, terror attacks. When you have people screaming Aloha snack bar and stabbing people, going after bakeries up there, doing everything else, right after you have the New York City mayor talking about how he wants to arrest Netanyahu and all of this stuff for war crimes, whatever those war crimes are. I don't know. So. Netanyahu responded to that.
This is cut twelve. Listen. And you've got this lunatic mayor in New York thinking. You may get arrested if you go to New York, which will never happen. First of all, I'm going to New York.
Yeah. I'd love to see you there when I go to the UN in September. You know, I moved to Florida. You know, you can take a look. I'll come up.
Yes. You've come to Washington, so you can go there, but I'm definitely going there. I'm going to speak the truth in front of this. You know, there's just hate spewing. Elected official?
Who's kidding? One group of New Yorkers against the others. He's turning them against New York Jews. I mean, What are we in the 1930s? What is this?
You know, so much hate.
So many lies. Hmm. I mean, it's... Yeah, I mean, it is. What did Maimdani think that he was going to accomplish up there?
This guy has done more to contribute to tension. And instability up there than anything else. This guy. And Just Really, I I was just this morning I was looking at the stories of 9-11 families that are already planning the memorial for this September, like the observance coming up in this September, and they don't want Ma'am Donnie to attend it. They don't want Mam Donnie to attend it.
And I mean, really, can you blame them? Considering everything that has happened recently, can you blame them? I mean, just think of it. This guy. He was campaigning and and Uh with Hassan Piker.
Saying that The United States deserved 9-11. This was a guy who had previously expressed sympathy for the Boston bombers. Ma'am Donnie. He endorsed, oh my gosh, what was her name? Valdez, the broad who said America deserved 9-11.
He endorsed that lawmaker. Mandani was like, I'll be there, standing shoulder to shoulder with him. He's not standing shoulder to shoulder with him. He's kicking the ash. His dad once justified suicide bombing.
He comes from a crazy family. He refuses, remember, and he's on video doing this, he refuses to address or condemn the globalize the intifada phrase. He wants to defund police. He wants to defund all law enforcement. This is a guy who had Chevalier, the guy who was at Columbia University, kicking off riots and running students.
Away from being able to have their religious observances because they're Jewish. He had this guy in the Gracie Mansion, in the mayor's mansion. For Ramadan. Had this guy in the mansion. Is it a shock?
that 9-11 families don't want him to be. at the observance of 9-11. But he's gonna insist. He's gonna make this about himself. And he's going to push himself on these families and re-victimize them again, our partners.
that make the program possible. Really fat. No, sorry, Patriot Mobile are good for. Oh my gosh, Patriot Mobile. I had my, can I just say, I had Patriot Mobile on the other side of the world, and I never had an issue with my service.

Also, if you're a subscriber, Uber at chapter and verse, all kinds of good stuff over there. All right, I gotta get right to this. I mean, because this just happened. I mean, he tweeted this literally right after. He left.
The um He keeps saying that this is not his account. But It's verified. Yeah. He keeps saying that this is not his account. That it's, but this article, let me see, because we're trying to figure out, this was back in 23.
So, in 2023, is when he said that he did not have an X account.
Now this, hang on for a moment. This. Account was created. I mean it's been out for a while. He says it's not his account.
I don't know. But, it tweeted good versus evil. And it shows him sitting At the table. at this hearing. I don't know if that's his or not.
Yeah, I'm looking at this now. It is verified with the blue check, but it doesn't have the gray check, which you would think. would have for an official account At least someone like Fauci. Yeah. So I don't think this is really his account.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was, though. This is just like all happening while we're on air, which is why we're figuring it out with you on air. The reason why is so when I was I had traveled, I traveled literally for 28 hours straight with all the delays and everything. I didn't even get home until like three in the morning, almost four in the morning yesterday. Still a little jet lagged.
And we'll be talking all about that in the days to come. Talked a little bit about where I was and everything earlier in the program. It's up over at Substack as well.
So just got a lot to unpack over the next several over the next days. And I was reading because Rand Paul got. Is it his diary? It's like his diary, and then. Um I mean, it's basically his diary.
I mean, he dated it, and then he would keep like these ongoing notes of everything that was happening and everything that he was doing. And A lot of people have been cataloging it and I've been reading it. I was reading it while traveling yesterday. or date before. I'm so confused.
He At first Didn't want people to think that this came, that coronavirus came from a lab in Wuhan. While he's writing notes about how it couldn't have come from the wet, or the wet market scaled it up, or the wet market. What's the word I'm looking for? Made it worse, for the lack of a better way to put it.
So he had these. statements, for instance. This is january twenty sixth, twenty twenty. And he talks about how he's speaking with the Chinese Minister of Health, talking about the incubation period, 1 to 14 days, the virus transmitted when people are asymptomatic. He gets into all of that.
He then says. It now appears using Epidata and geonomic data that the first infection was in early December and was not. connected to the market.
Now this is from his little diary. The infection spread among people weeks before the Chinese reported that they were dealing with a new infection and gave the virus time to establish itself in multi-generational sustained spread. He adds, remember, early on the Chinese were saying that there is no human-to-human transmission and all the original 27 cases were from the market.
Now we know the market was not the source, it was the amplifier. Having said that, somewhere the virus jumped from animals to humans. Why couldn't he have just said that from the get-go publicly? Why Did they deny that it came from the lab? I had my account suspended for that.
on Facebook before it was restored. My account was suspended for like a week and a half. Over that. Mm-hmm. I don't understand why he just couldn't come out and say that.
Looking at this in a very Um just clinical way. What was the downside to him saying that? Was he worried about some kind of foreign policy thing, et cetera? These were records that he was creating while he was doing it. I don't know if I would say this was a word diary.
I think that's used loosely. It's not like he's writing in a notebook, dear diary, and all of that. But they were telling us over and over again: there's no scientific evidence of this. There's no scientific evidence. Clearly there was.
And What this is He was saying the exact opposite thing. Like, for instance, National Geographic, they printed this headline. Let me pull this up. It says Fauci, no scientific evidence that the coronavirus was made in a Chinese lab. And this is literally right around the time.
Yeah. in the date of his diary, That he's saying, oh no, it it really was. that he writes in this record keeping That it was, that it was the lab and then the market just was the amplifier.
So while Nat Geo is posting this, he knows that it's a lie. And then CNN amplifies it. Um MSNBC amplifies it, CBS amplifies it. The Legacy Press, they just basically, they were described. One of my friends said they're just Fauci stenographers at this point.
In June of 2021, When Emails were released. Tying Fauci. to Wuhan. He went to CNN and The Washington Post to deny it. And to make it seem as though he was innocent.
And then he would say things like this, quote, Write-ups by CNN and Washington Post regarding my emails are making me look very good. They show that I never criticize President Trump and that I am always very courteous and measured in my responses, even with the crazy, such as Senator Paul, saying things like, I told you so, implying that my emails are validating that they have been saying what they have been saying about me, total nutcakes. The right-wing fringe social media are ablaze with anti-Fauci stuff. He writes those. Does this Does this sound like somebody who is?
pursuing this. For A purpose of I don't know. I don't want it just common good. I don't know how to put it. He sounds like a malignant narcissist.
He talks, there are so many entries. where he talks about How much press he's receiving. How much press he has. Who's writing things about him? Oh, it's a big Fauci Media Day.
These are things that he actually writes down and says. Like he talks, for instance, I'm pulling up some of my notes here. Yeah. His entry for May 21st, 2021. He talks about the death toll.
Of people with coronavirus dying across the country. And then he goes into this, like, Missive about his fame. He talks about the task force, etc. Then he writes: Big front page article about me appeared in the Washington Post. Very flattering.
The situation with my national and international fame is explosive and really unimaginable. It is not hyperbole to say that today I am the most famous and talked about person in the country and one of the most recognizable persons in the world. Countless profiles on me and multiple media. I cannot even, I'm reading this verbatim. I cannot even read all of the things that are written about me since I am so busy.
Seriously. POTUS seems to be enamored of me even though I am taking the spotlight away from him. We are developing a very unique and interesting relationship. The entire Secret Service Corps is coming over to me and chatting. They let me into the first gate without even checking I D.
Everyone is worried about my health and welfare. Daredevil. Dude. Yeah. At what point did this I I mean, it feels like it that I mean, I always knew that he he seemed kind of like a narcissist.
But I think what you're seeing is that so early on It's a man. Man, do you remember his office? Hold up. I wanted to put this. Let me put this in Slack.
I messaged this to myself so I could keep it when I was on the plane.
So remember there was this photo of him in his office. And it's from that documentary, Fauci. He's literally in his office surrounded by pictures of himself, including this giant canvas print. that is on the wall. And I I I I mean he's This is I it's just crazy.
This guy is obsessed with himself. And that's not the only. I mean, he has multiple entries where. He sits here and he congratulates himself. And I he talks about like the deaths, and he says, um.
Oh, he ta oh, a profile uh by Peter Nicholas on me in the Atlantic. He literally would track the body count and his press clippings within the same thing. I I mean I don't know. His diary privately. He talked about the COVID fatality rate at Uh 0.2 to 0.3%.
And then under When he was under oath with Congress, like weeks later, he said it was 10 times the flu. Ten times the flu. He said uh On february first, twenty twenty. It was his diary on the call that produced the words proximal origin, 12 scientists on the line. And he said that.
So apparently, only two of the participants on this February 2020 call believe that the virus happened naturally and that it spread organically. And even in his own notes. He talks about, quote, there was not total agreement about the likelihood of deliberate insertion. The rest felt that deliberate insertion was possible. And given the fact that Dr.
Zheng Li Shi at the University of Wuan has been working for years on gain of function and coronaviruses to allow the adaptation of spike protein to bind to the human ACE tube receptor, et cetera, he literally is noting that he quote felt deliberate insertion was possible. And then, eight days later, he tells the media that it is quote, a conspiracy theory and like all conspiracy theories, they're just conspiracy theories end quote. He's a psycho. He also lied and said he never said that he was going to lock anything down. He, I mean, I don't even know where this is just wild.
So well, press is going wild with me. As he's tracking the body count. Um It gives you insight. Into the way his mind worked. And it seemed as though it was somehow like a Munchausen's by proxy thing with him.
We're going to make it really bad on everyone because if it looks really bad in the public, Does that not make him more indispensable? Whether it's within the administration or in front of the camera. If it looks really bad, then you need this guy's hand on the rudder, right? It almost sounded like he was really inflating so much. As a form of like job protection.
Right? Like, i if it was over And it was discovered to be manageable. Then his expertise then Becomes less necessary every day. You all remember those daily press conferences. It becomes less.
necessary, he becomes less relevant. This is just psychotic. It's absolutely psychotic. Privately, he's saying one thing entirely. And then He says something else publicly.
He's tracking the deaths while simultaneously obsessing. Over everything the media is saying about him. Have you ever noticed that most laundry detergents smell like something you'd use to scrub a toilet? I mean, no thanks. Nobody wants that.
