OH, SINCE WE LAST SPOKE, A top US official has resigned in protest. Instead of making some truly stunning claims about the war, Israel and Charlie Kirk, the UK is now facing a deadly and unprecedented outbreak. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Russia is now involved in the war. For the first time in history, the winner of Africa's largest football tournament was stripped of their title and cracks in the US Israel relationship have started to appear after Israel unilaterally bombed one of the largest gas facilities in the world. And we are slowly building whip by whip, brick by brick. Look at that beautiful. All of that in a couple of days. So, subscribe to the channel and we will stop the complaining and let's go painting. Okay, to start this day off, we must truly address what has become one of the most genuinely shocking moments of this war so far. The head of America's counterterrorism, Joe Kent, the tippity of the topy guy. This guy not only resigned in protest because of the war, but he then went on to do an interview with Taco Carlson and said some things that I genuinely can't believe he's allowed to say. So, it all kicked off with this resignation letter. He said, "I cannot in good conscious support the ongoing war with Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby." Now, obviously, he's not the first person to have this opinion, but what makes this so significant is that when someone with his background says it, people listen. He's not only former special forces, a CIA veteran, and longtime supporter of Trump, so they can't just say, "Oh, he's saying this because he just like dislikes Trump." But of course, his position as the head of the country's counterterrorism makes him someone who is being privy to a bunch of top classified information uh probably on on whether Iran actually did pose an immediate threat or not to the United States, which obviously is a very key claim here because that is one of the main reasons that the US and Israel launched this war. I mean, not to mention that a top official is now directly arguing against claims made by the president, the commander-in-chief. That's pretty freaking wild. Now, it's also important to know that Joe Kent, you know, doesn't have a flawless clean record. There are some reports that, you know, they describe him as a a conspiracy theorist, that he has some connections with the far right and the Proud Boys. Um, and also that that he was cut out of certain intelligence briefings because he was a known leaker. So, that that is there to keep in mind as well. But in this resignation letter, he essentially started making the claim that Israeli officials and other influential members of the American media deployed a misinformation campaign that fed Trump false information about Iran's threat to the United States. He rounded it out by saying, and this is probably the part that's going to piss Trump off the most, I pray you reflect on what you are doing in Iran and who we are doing it for. Now, the White House have come out and dismissed this letter and his claim, saying that Trump did have compelling evidence that Iran was going to attack the US first. And Trump has also directly responded to this when asked in the White House. And he said that he always thought that Joe Kent was a nice guy, but weak on security. And it's a good thing that he's out. >> Well, I read his statement. I always thought he was a nice guy, but I always thought he was weak on security. Very weak on security. But when I read a statement, I realized that it's a good thing that he's out because he said that Iran was not a threat. Iran was a threat. Every country realized what a threat Iran was. The question is whether or not they wanted to do something about it. >> Now, as if the resignation and statement alone wasn't going to cause enough backlash, Joe then decided to go on Tucker Carlson just to follow it up. And in this conversation, he might have made even some more. I wouldn't even go as far as to call them absolute claims, but he suggested a lot of things, mainly to do with Charlie Kirk. Alex, roll them the clip. >> So, we knew each other. And the last time I saw Charlie Kirk on this earth was in in June um in in the in the West Wing in the stairway. And I said hi to him and he looked me in the eye and he said very loudly, and it's a small You've been in the West Wing, it's it's small uh it's a tight space. and and he said, "Joe, stop us from getting into a war with Iran." >> Very loudly. >> He was single-minded. >> And he walked off and he went, I believe, into the oval. Um, so when one of President Trump's closest advisers who is vocally advocating for us to not go to war with Iran and for us to rethink at least our relationship with the Israelis. Um, and then he's suddenly publicly assassinated. And we're not allowed to ask any questions about that. It's a data point. So yeah, while he's not making any absolute claims here, he does seem to suggest or at least set it up for the viewers that where there could be something more to do with the Charlie Kirk assassination in terms of the context of this war. Now, I'm not going to tell you guys how to think about this or how to view it, but for me, whenever someone is suggesting someone something as significant as this, I always fall back on when extraordinary claims are made, extraordinary evidence needs to be presented. And from this interview alone, this is, you know, circumstantial and there's no hardcore evidence that's been presented. So, it's just worth keeping in mind. But here's the thing. Beyond the contradicting Trump and, you know, interesting Charlie references, the bigger story here is that we're starting to see small signs of cracks growing between the USIsrael relationship. Again, right now they're very small, but it's something to really watch out for because it's very easily missed if it's not pointed out. You know, for example, in interviews, US officials have displayed that the two countries have different objectives when asked about the war. A White House official told Axios, quote, "Israel doesn't hate the chaos. We do. The US, we want stability. Netanyahu, not so much, especially in Iran." Now, that's a White House official saying that. Obviously, there were other cases like Marco Rubio at the start of the war when he said that essentially the US were pressured into it because they knew that Israel was going to attack first and they would have been left vulnerable. But last night in probably one of the most stunning examples of this yet, Trump publicly scolded Israel for striking Iran's Southpaw gas facilities, which key point is part of the largest gas field in the entire world. He posted this on Truth Social and he made it clear that the US and Israel are in very different pages when it comes to certain objectives in this war. He said that Israel out of anger for what has taken place in the Middle East violently lashed out and that the United States knew nothing about this particular attack. That's pretty significant when you're launching this joint war and you're not privy to information about certain attacks. He also wrote in all caps to really emphasize this point that no more attacks will be made by Israel pertaining to this extremely important and valuable Southpaw's field unless Iran unwisely decides to attack innocent Qatar. And partly why Trump is reacting so strongly to this case in particular is because of how Iran responded in probably one of the most intense retaliations in the war so far. Iran launched strikes against numerous countries last night, including Kuwait, Qatar, UAE, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, about nine in total. Now, many were intercepted as usual. But one of the strikes they did target was a crucial Qatari energy facility. It's an industrial area known as Ras Lafan, and it contains the world's biggest liqufied natural gas processing facility. And the attack on this area was not intercepted, and reportedly there was extensive damage. Now, obviously that does not help for the markets right now. And you know, when one of the world's most important energy facilities is attacked, you better know that um there's going to be some consequences. Oil jumped up to nearly $110. In fact, at one point, it touched 112. That's huge. But yeah, this is an aspect of the war that we're really starting to see emerge. Now, how much will the US and Israel's objective of this war go in separate directions? and how will that affect the overall managing of it? Of course, let me know what you guys think about this situation in the comments, but for now, moving on. Now, talking about Israel's objectives in this war, another significant figure in Iran's leadership has been assassinated. Now, Israel announced yesterday that they have killed Iran's security chief in an air strike near Thran. And uh Iran have confirmed this themselves as well. And you know, the reason this is so significant is that he actually played a key role in many of Iran's major decisions throughout the war. He was also seen as their current de facto leader by Iran's opponents. In fact, his death makes him the highest ranking Iranian official to be killed since the assassination of their former Supreme Leader. But guess what? He wasn't even the only major Iranian figure killed in these strikes since we last spoke. The head of the paramilitary Basge force, who are a militia with about 1 million members that are closely aligned to Iran, well, the head of that group was also killed. On top of that, Israel have claimed the responsibility for the assassination of Iran's intelligence minister. And so, as you can see, these continued assassinations on top Iranian officials show you that there certainly are different objectives from the US and Israel right now. But we're talking a lot about war right now. Let's take a two-minute break to talk about some other news. Moving on. Right, everyone is talking about Africa right now, and it's probably not for the best reason. So, for the first time in history, this has never happened before, the winner of the continent's largest footballing tournament, the African Cup of Nations, well, they have been stripped of their title a whopping two months later. And just to add to the drama, the title was then given to the host nation, Morocco. Sagal are refusing to hand back the trophy. There are allegations of corruption being thrown around and now a shame for Africa rhetoric is running wild. So here's what the hell happened. You see, recently, and it's not even that recent, it's about 56 57 days ago, Morocco played Senagal in the final of the African Cup of Nations. And throughout the game, there were a number of very controversial decisions made in favor of Morocco um made by the ref. Now, despite this, they were drawing nil nil, and it looks like it was heading into extra time until the referee gave a penalty to Morocco in the dying minutes of the game. Now, players from Sagal were so outraged by this decision because if you're giving someone a penalty that late on the game, it's almost like giving them the entire win. They were so pissed that they did something you almost never see in professional football. They walked off the pitch in protest. Damn. We're leaving. We're leaving. >> No way. Now, after about 15 minutes in the dressing room, eventually they were persuaded to come back on the pitch. Morocco, they took the penalty, but they missed just to add to the crazy twist. What a game. Then in extra time, Senagal ended up winning 1 nil. And everyone thought, crazy game. That's probably the last we're going to hear of it, though. Wrong. 2 months later, the continent's football governing body, they made an announcement that Sagal are stripped of their title because they technically forfeited the game under article 82 and 84 when they left the pitch for those 15 minutes. And so the result of this match is now being recorded as 3-0 in favor to Morocco. Now, as you can imagine, this has caused major outrage and allegations of corruption, especially since Morocco were the hosts of the tournament. And I mean, now it's even spiraling to criticism of the entire tournament and Africa as a continent. I mean, even the Senagal government are calling for an investigation into alleged corruption. However, others are defending this decision, saying that those are the official rules. They weren't made up on the night, and people can't complain if Senagal broke them. So, what do you guys think? I asked that question to uh my audience on Instagram and 80% or 81% said that it was unfair. 19% said it was fair and that was out of almost 29,000 votes. Feel free to yap away in the comments. Moving on. Also, since we last spoke, the UK are now facing an unprecedented outbreak according to health officials. And to make this matter even more concerning is that those who have died so far and are currently most at risk from this outbreak are young people students. So here's what's going on and the answer to is this another co. So on Sunday the 15th of March UK health officials announced that there was a serious outbreak of menitis in the city of Canterbury which they have now declared a national incident. Now, if you don't know, menitis causes inflammation of the protective membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. And some of the side effects include pretty horrific things like sudden high fever, stiff neck, severe headache, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light, ultimately death. Yeah, ultimately death is about 1 in 10 the death rate of men, but we'll get to that because it's pretty significant. Now, this recent outbreak in particular is being described by health officials as unprecedented due to its explosive nature. And the times even described it as the worst menitis outbreak in a generation. So far, two people have died and they were only 18 and 21 and 13 more in hospital. And all of the other, well, at least the majority of other cases so far can be linked back to what authorities believe is the place of origin, a nightclub in Canterbury called chemistry. Now the reason this club is being described as this super spreader event is because menitis can be passed along from person to person through kissing, sharing vapes and sharing drinks amongst other things of course. Now you're probably wondering at this point like why is this outbreak happening now? Menitis has been around in the UK for decades and you'll be you're right. The nuance is is that there are multiple strains like for example men that was vaccinated against in 1999 and that um the cases of which it dropped by about 96% and then there was cases under 100 every year so on so it wasn't a big deal but the majority of cases in this outbreak is men B and interestingly vaccinations for this strain were only introduced by the NHS for children born after 2015 meaning if you're older than around 11 or 12 which is the vast majority of the UK population, you will likely not have this vaccination. And also, like I mentioned, with membing death rate of 1 in 10, the University of Kent, where this is mainly breaking out, they've canceled all their exams, and you can see huge long lines of students lining up for antibiotics. So, is this another CO? Well, you know, the UK's deputy chief medical officer, he said that it was the quickest growing outbreak he had seen in his career. But there are major differences between COVID and menitis especially around how it spreads. Menitis is a bacterial disease whereas uh a covid is a virus. It's airborne so you can get it from the air. So covid was a lot more transmissible and while it is obviously very serious to contract men the UK's health secretary is saying that the risk of it spreading nationally is very low. Now of course I'll keep you guys updated as we have more information but for now moving on. Also, since we last spoke, reports from the Wall Street Journal suggest that Russia might be getting involved or already is involved in the Middle EAST WAR. AH, YOU KNOW, AT THIS POINT, the all THESE COUNTRIES BETTER WATCH OUT BEFORE I get involved with my upcoming whip. You know this piece of crap with my upcoming whip. It is so ferocious and fear invoking that one crack could cause eternal peace because they would be so terrified of the consequences. So be waiting for future peace when my whip arrives is the point. Gosh. Now, you will be relieved to hear that Russia's not involved with bombs and missiles, but rather Russia are providing Iran with intelligence information to help Iran target US forces in the region. I mean, still not ideal that Russia is involved, but um it's better than the worst possible scenario. Now, this help includes satellite imagery and even improved drone technology. And the Wall Street Journal is saying that these claims are coming from unnamed sources familiar with the matter, including a senior European intelligence officer. The report goes on to say that some of the intel that Russia are providing Iran is helping them with things like tactical guidance on how many drones should be used, what altitude they should be striking from, movements from both land and sea based targets. So, I mean, even if it's not missiles and drones that they're getting involved with, um, it's pretty significant information. Either way, I mean, let's just hope that Russia's involvement ends there or my whip will be coming. MOVING ON. AND LASTLY, as always, we promised you end with some good news. But now, initially, you guys are going to be like, "Oh, that's not good news." Well, just wait. It's good news at the end because let me introduce I don't know which side, Alex. Which side are you putting it on? This side. Let me introduce to you potentially one of the most two-faced individuals in human history. Pretty good start. Listen to this. A woman who wrote a children's book about coping with the grief after losing her husband has just been found guilty of murdering him. You're probably wondering, how does this turn into good news? Well, just wait. So, Corey Richens from Utah poisoned her husband in 2022 after she poured five times the lethal dose of fentinel into his drink. Damn, it really do be the ones closest to you, man. And according to prosecutors, she did this in order to inherit his $4 million estate. How do you marry someone and not see the red flags that they want to kill you? That's crazy. I mean, at this point, she's contending for a freaking Oscar nomination. How can you be that good at acting? And guess what? It gets crazier because it turns out there was a gap in between when she carried out the murder in March 2022 and when she finally was arrested the following year. During this period, she went all out in playing the grieving widow. Like, I don't know, maybe it took some time for that 4 million inheritance to kick in, and so she needed to make some money in the in the space between. So, she wrote and self-published a children's book about how to deal with death of a parent called Are You With Me? Damn. She then even went on TV and the radio promoting this book. And I wonder if people at the time could sus anything that was that was strange about this because I'm sure there were but those people in the comments, well, well done to you. You you figured it out early. Now, the good news in all of this is that she didn't get away with it. You know, justice prevailed. That's the takeaway from this. Um, she's been found guilty and she will be sentenced in May. There you go. I'll make an update in May. I won't forget. But that is where we wrap up today's video.
