that's just a hoax. Sort of like the Charlottesville event. There's nothing you could tell me that would make me think that happened organically. Nothing. That was so obviously an anti-Trump op that worked really well, by the way. It was genius. They still use it. They still act like it hasn't been debunked. Dolly says it's obvious that Tim Walz is a serious alcoholic. Well I don't know about tha…
← Previous segment →d called him a dictator for getting rid of the term limits. But he has an argument on his side which isn't bad. So here's his argument that he posted. He said 90% of developed countries allow the indefinite reelection of their head of government. Did you know that? Did you know that 90% of developed countries allow their leader to just keep running and running as long as they get reelected? And no one bats an eye, he says. But when a small poor country like El Salvador tries to do the same, suddenly it's the end of democracy.
Of course they'll rush to point out that a parliamentary system isn't the same as a presidential one. So most of those other countries he's talking about are a different system. So if the party gets elected, then they pick their leader. So they can keep picking the same one if they want. A parliamentary system isn't the same as a presidential one. They'll say, as if that technicality justifies the double standard.
Is it a technicality? I suppose he's right. But let's be honest, that's just a pretext. What do people really mean? Well because if El Salvador declared itself a parliamentary monarchy with the exact same rules as the UK, Spain, or Denmark, they still wouldn't support it. In fact they would go ballistic if that happened. Why? Because the problem isn't the system. It's the fact that a poor country dares to act like a sovereign one. Sovereign is not the opposite of poor.
So I don't know. You're not supposed to do what they do. You're supposed to do what you're told and you're expected to stay in your lane.
I feel like he's completely wrong with that argument. Do you believe that there's anybody who's criticizing him who is thinking, "Oh that's not something a small poor country can do"? Literally not one person probably had that thought. And he's arguing it like we all know it. He uses phrases like "it's the fact." So that's how you know somebody's lying. Democrats do this all the time. He goes, because the problem isn't the system, it's the fact that a poor country dares to act like a sovereign one. They would go ballistic.
Basically all these, it's just crazy. So I have to admit he's got a reasonable argument that most of the big countries allow indefinite elections. However, his argument for why it should be okay and why they're against him is obviously a lie. Yeah, that's just a lie. And I haven't seen him lie in a way that was everybody could tell was a lie. So this is sort of disappointing. You know he's such a capable leader and a friend of the United States. So I want to like him, but what's up with this? I mean this is just crazy. So we'll see.
According to Newsmax, Hamas's position at the moment is it won't disarm unless there can be an independent Palestinian state with its capital in Jerusalem. Who is advising Hamas? If it's AI, they really need to get a better AI because they're starting to remind me of that knight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail in which the knight is in a sword fight with the other character and he gets his arm cut off and then the other arm then both legs and he wants to keep fighting once he has no arms and no legs. And Hamas is like that now. Like ah we got him now because Great Britain and France and who else said that they are supporting a Palestinian state. So now Hamas is like, "Ha, we got him now."
But what do you think Israel is saying? I think Israel is saying, "Oh well, since our plan is to do everything we want with Gaza because you guys will never give up, I guess we have a free pass to just keep doing what we're doing." And they do.
So Hamas, you really need better advisers because I'll tell you the one thing that is not going to happen in any world. Not even a chance. Is them getting an independent Palestinian state as a reward for taking all the hostages and killing all those people. There is not the slightest chance, not the slightest tiniest little chance that Israel is going to reward them for taking hostages. That's just not going to happen. But anyway, they're spunky just like that Monty Python knight.
Apparently India, at one point Trump thought that maybe India was going to start buying less Russian oil, but a source in India is saying that's not true. They're going to be buying all kinds of Russian oil. So just hold this in your mind for a second. All right? Because there's a story that comes after this where this is important. So hold in your mind that India gets most of their oil from Russia wh

ich funds Russia and their war etc. and Trump very much doesn't want them to be buying that oil from Russia. So hold that in your head and we're going to move to the next story. A drone attack by Ukraine that was 500 miles past the front lines of battle into Russia. They sent a drone attack 500 miles into Russia that blew up a Russian oil refinery. So I'm starting to wonder, I wonder if all those…
