d the people he's brought in, it tells a bigger story about America. And I've said this in different ways but I'm going to try to pull it all together. DOGE is essentially willing to just shake the box like nobody's business, cut things that maybe will have to add back if we find it's a problem, and just make a big dramatic change. Do you know what other countries are capable of doing that? The an…

Now you also saw the story that, I don't know if this is true yet, I haven't seen a good source for this. Can anybody confirm that Egypt said it would help the Palestinians from Gaza? Is that real? Because I don't know if it's real or just something I saw. But the story is the way people are treating it is that is real and that anyway so that would be a case of Trump stirring the box and saying okay we'll take Gaza if nobody wants to help. If nobody's going to help the Gaza residents we will. Now the way we're going to do it is we'll probably have to ship you somewhere else for a long time and it might take 10 years to fix up Gaza but then we'll consider bringing back the people who don't look dangerous. Now that was probably never a practical plan but it certainly made the people in the region sharpen their pencils and say ah maybe we could help. Maybe we could just to keep that big boot of the United States military out of the region. So it could be that Trump's play was exactly what the Palestinians needed just to incentivize other countries in the region to help out.
And that ladies and gentlemen is all I had today. I'll remind you again that Owen's spaces that he usually does on Saturday he's going to do on Sunday this week. So no spaces today, tomorrow.
All right, let's see how I did. Oh I did good. I was trying to keep it to an hour. I got pretty good. Oh kind of itchy.
Majority of the rare earth is in the regions that Russia controls. Well maybe the majority but I'll bet there's still plenty. I'm not sure anybody ever knows where all the rare earth is until you start digging around for it because if you're not looking for it how are you going to find it? So I think everybody's got a lot of rare earth. What they don't have is the ability to mine it.
All right, that's all I've got for now. I'm going to say hi to the people on Locals and the rest of you I will see you tomorrow. Thanks for joining. Have a great Saturday. Locals, I'm coming at you in 30 seconds and the rest of you on X and YouTube and Rumble, thanks for joining.
