al thing to it. It's just words that fit in the sentence. So here is Raskin: every accusation by Trump is a confession. We've never had presidential candidates, much less presidents, talk like that before. What? That's every Democrat every day. What? My God. He said there's always been a very strong degree of civility at that level. What? And so it telegraphs some very dark intentions on his part.…

for another term because he wanted to concentrate on his domestic agenda which was so awesome. But Bernie says it's because he couldn't win because of the Vietnam War. So who writes history, Bernie or ChatGPT? Those are different histories. History is all fake if you didn't know it. Basically all of your history is fake. Always has been.

But my question would be is Biden more like Lyndon Johnson or more like Hitler? Well let's examine. And by the way the name that's becoming popularized for Biden is Shitler, which is very funny because you normally think that Hitler is as bad as you can get in your insults. If you call a leader Hitler you think well I'm done. I mean can't get worse than that. Well it turns out you can. You could be Hitler but also made out of shit. It's the only way you can be worse than Hitler. So people are calling Biden a-hole Shitler. A-hole Shitler. That's right. That's right. And he's a member of the Third Reich. The Third Reich. Yeah. And you may have heard of a book about the concept. It's called The Diarrhea of Anne Frank. No, too far, too far. Was it? That's too far. Yeah. So a-hole Shitler is trying to get the major candidate against him trying to get him put in jail, trying to get RFK Jr. assassinated by giving him no Secret Service or anything, and of course suppressing free speech everywhere. To me it looks very a-hole Shitler. Yeah, very a-hole Shitler.

Meanwhile Biden has halted ammunition shipments to Israel, probably just to put some pressure on them because Israel is getting ready to invade Rafah which would require all the people who had moved from the north into the south to move again. But where? I don't know. But they need to clear out the citizens as much as possible before they move in. So it looks like nothing's going to stop Israel from doing what it needs to do. But there's a new — I guess there's some energy around the idea of having a Gaza international peacekeeping force of the Muslim countries. But we don't know which Muslim countries and we don't know what a peacekeeping force would look like. But if the peacekeeping force happened to be let's say Saudi Arabia and Jordan you could imagine the situation where Israel could live with it because if it's managed by countries that it already has good relationships with or good enough, could work, could work. However I don't think that Israel will ever release military control. So when you say that there might be international peacekeeping force, they wouldn't be in charge. I can't imagine. Can you? It seems to me that the only way it would work is if Israel stays in charge forever at least on the security level. But they might have some kind of accountants that are trying to help out maybe. But a ceasefire being talked about is rejected by Israel because Hamas is saying you know we'll give you the hostages if you just withdraw all your troops and surrender.

Do you remember when I told you there's not going to be a ceasefire? Why does the news even report that there's a conversation about a ceasefire? Is there nobody in the news business who knows there's no chance of a ceasefire? No. Israel said exactly what it's going to do. It's going to kill every single person who was involved in the attack. They're not going to leave a few. They've been very clear about that. And in a Karine Jean-Pie

rre whatever the hell her name is way been very clear about that. Now I think when Israel says something that clear you kind of have to think it's really going to happen. Let us be really clear about this. We're going to kill every one of them. I think they mean that, you know, the combatants, not the civilians of course. So that's what you got going. All right, ladies and gentlemen, did I miss a…
