#49 - Trump’s Gaza Takeover & Musk’s DOGE Revolution! · Brandon Fogal Evolution

• 0:00
  So, are crazy things happening in the first couple weeks of the Trump administration?
• 0:06
  We all expected crazy things, but I did not expect this, actually.
• 0:10
  Trump has just launched an initiative to own Gaza in Israel,
• 0:16
  or what is currently Palestine.
• 0:19
  And there's, I mean, there's a lot to this. And, I mean, we're going to try
• 0:23
  to break it down and what's going on there.
• 0:25
  And then plus Elon Musk's whole initiative, revolution, whatever you want to
• 0:30
  call it, of a doge, the Department of Government Efficiency is just insane.
• 0:38
  It's it's it's we all knew we knew this needed to happen.
• 0:41
  But just the way that it's going about, it's it's it's it's just catching a
• 0:45
  lot of people off guard. But we all knew this was a long time coming.
• 0:49
  And the best person in put in place for that would be probably Elon Musk.
• 0:53
  A lot of people, I bet half the people that hear this are going to disagree
• 0:57
  with that, but I would say that he is a very efficient person,
• 1:02
  a very business-minded person that if anyone could accomplish it and put us
• 1:06
  on the right track as a country and taking care of our finances,
• 1:11
  I don't think anyone else could do it but him, but we'll get into all that.
• 1:15
  I wanted to start off with, first of all, this video is sponsored by HelloFresh.
• 1:19

  Now, that's something to wake up early for. So, all right. So,
• 1:43
  this whole, this is just bananas. It's kind of crazy.
• 1:47
  I'll say up front, I've supported Trump I've been behind him in a lot of things
• 1:52
  even when things were not too good did not look good and a lot of situations
• 1:57
  throughout the eight years that we've had Trump or maybe eight years, almost more than that,
• 2:03
  there's been a lot of ups and downs and a lot of.
• 2:06
  I've always thought he was,
• 2:09
  He doesn't do everything perfect. I don't think anyone agrees with that.
• 2:12
  And he doesn't always do everything in the right, perfect way.
• 2:16
  But with him, you know what you're getting kind of thing.
• 2:20
  And so you kind of got to take the good with the bad, you know.
• 2:24
  Now that Trump has launched this initiative, he said, like, this is just, to me, it's crazy.
• 2:29
  Because to own Gaza, the U.S.
• 2:33
  To have a part, an actual part in the land of Israel.
• 2:38
  And what would be amazing. It's tough to choose between Israel or Palestine
• 2:42
  for a lot of people. And, you know, it is a dicey issue.
• 2:46
  I definitely support Israel. I'm going to be upfront and honest about that.
• 2:49
  I support them, you know, when I'm just talking biblically, I support that nation.
• 2:54
  You know, I believe they're the chosen people, the chosen nation of God, you know?
• 2:59
  And there's a lot into that we could go into, but we're not going to do that this episode.
• 3:04
  But for Trump to say that I'm going to go in and have a part,
• 3:07
  have the U.S. take a part in Israel.
• 3:10
  There's a lot to that, but like he wants to go in and clean it up and basically
• 3:15
  give the Palestinians where they are kind of, if we step back and think,
• 3:19
  they are kind of living in rubble right now.
• 3:21
  And what they're going through, they started it with October 7th.
• 3:26
  Now that we're actually rolling, like where Israel has fought back and nobody
• 3:32
  really believed the Palestinians had a chance. against Israel.
• 3:38
  Israel's arsenal is just next level.
• 3:41
  But now that we are kind of where we're at, Trump's going in there and he wants
• 3:45
  to give the Palestinians an actual place to go for the people that live there
• 3:50
  to kind of put them in other locations of the Middle East.
• 3:53
  Trump, he's starting, he's making it clear that he's going to make things happen.
• 3:58
  And so he does, we know that Trump, he throws grenades, he throws bombs out there.
• 4:03
  He's definitely dialed it back a lot from what he used to be.
• 4:06
  He's not like he used to be at all.
• 4:08
  He was a lot more kind of, he did a lot just harder to receive things at times.
• 4:15
  And he's dialed that back a lot. He's not as...
• 4:18
  The first term as he was like that first term presidency was
• 4:21
  kind of was tough for a lot of people and it took it
• 4:24
  shocked a lot of people but just everything with
• 4:27
  the assassination attempts that happened to him he has definitely
• 4:30
  changed just his his persona he's definitely different in a lot of ways and
• 4:36
  for him to actually to step in the ring and to say something to he's getting
• 4:42
  like kind of the ball rolling he knows something needs to happen there and so
• 4:47
  he's made it clear Like I'm going to step in and do something.
• 4:50
  And this is going to get a lot of the people there, a lot of the surrounding
• 4:54
  countries to be like, oh, no, no, no, no, no.
• 4:58
  And then maybe they'll try to figure something out if possible.
• 5:02
  Like we don't want the U.S.
• 5:05
  To actually be intervening and doing something like that.
• 5:09
  So maybe we need to kind of come together and figure something out.
• 5:12
  So I always think Donald Trump, he plays 4D chess.
• 5:17
  He's thinking like three steps ahead in a lot of the moves that he makes.
• 5:23
  He's a businessman. He's a person that negotiates for a living,
• 5:26
  and he's done that for decades.
• 5:29
  So whether he really thinks, because he's already said Canada needs to become
• 5:35
  a United States, the next state.
• 5:37
  He said he wants to purchase Greenland.
• 5:40
  And he says a lot of things and a lot of things that they ended up happening.
• 5:45
  You know, a lot of the things that he said, it did actually happen.
• 5:49
  So, and it may be like, just, he would generally genuinely like us to have Canada
• 5:56
  as the next state. He would genuinely like to have the United States purchase Greenland and own that.
• 6:03
  And he probably, you know, deep down would genuinely want us to own Gaza.
• 6:08
  But in his business mind, he understands that a lot of the things might not actually happen.
• 6:13
  There's one greater probability it won't happen, and then some greater probability that it will happen.
• 6:20
  But he's almost kind of just sparking something to get things to start moving
• 6:25
  in a way that he sees as the best outcome. If the U.S.
• 6:30
  Actually takes over Gaza, that would be incredible. It would be good.
• 6:33
  You might disagree. If you disagree with that, definitely put it in the comments.
• 6:36
  Let me know what you think. I would love to hear that.
• 6:39
  And then, because that is, it is a bold move. It's a bold move, Cotton, you know? And.
• 6:45
  And then also the other like kind of news is happening right now is Elon Musk
• 6:50
  with his Doge initiative.
• 6:53
  And it's just serendipity that it became the name Doge because he promoted that
• 6:59
  cryptocurrency for the longest time.
• 7:01
  And he's always back in Doge to the moon, you know, the crypto.
• 7:06
  The crypto and now we have this actual government
• 7:09
  this new government like that's called
• 7:12
  doge department of government efficiency he's
• 7:16
  he's taken a chainsaw to to the things that he believes are going to be kind
• 7:22
  of the wastes of government spending i mean if i threw up the the debt clock
• 7:27
  like what the debt that united states is in we're we're well over 30 trillion
• 7:31
  and that numbers just become like, okay, I don't know.
• 7:36
  Okay. I don't think we can get a handle on that. That what does that even mean?
• 7:40
  What is the, the, the debt mean for the United States?
• 7:44
  Like, is that even a thing that we could ever actually reverse and kind of bring
• 7:48
  down, like not lose a billion dollars every second, it seems.
• 7:52
  So I, I, all I, all I know is when Elon Musk took over what is now X. He formerly Twitter.
• 8:00
  He did basically the same thing. He went in there and he cut so much out.
• 8:06
  He's an immediately cut.
• 8:07
  And people thought a lot of people left the platform.
• 8:11
  A lot of people, you know, kind of, and as sponsors went away,
• 8:15
  he did a lot of things that made people not like it as much.
• 8:19
  But after all that, he ended up cutting so much, but now X is the place to be
• 8:26
  by far. X is the place to be.
• 8:29
  It's where the news happens. It's the most reliable news source.
• 8:32
  I mean, you can get news that you don't agree with, but it is the most instant,
• 8:37
  quick, on the ground, hitting, fast-breaking news that you can find.
• 8:42
  If I want to see what is actually happening right now, I would go to X.
• 8:47
  You find it there. So he's definitely made the platform overall better.
• 8:52
  He's changed it in a lot of ways.
• 8:54
  He brought back the voice of Donald Trump on X and so many other people that
• 9:00
  are out there that got kind of just nixed, you know, and got removed from X
• 9:05
  and their voices got, their megaphones got taken away.
• 9:08
  Donald Trump was removed from Twitter while he was a seated president,
• 9:13
  which was bonkers to me. That was insane that that actually happened,
• 9:18
  that he and then they took it away.
• 9:21
  Him tweeting from the POTUS account as well, which was even crazier.
• 9:25
  I mean, but they did. So our world has completely flipped.
• 9:28
  And this is not to say that it's not going to flip back. Everything would have
• 9:32
  like with Donald Trump becoming president again.
• 9:34
  Like whoever would have thunk that would happen that we thought Donald Trump was finished.
• 9:40
  It seemed like he was finished after January 6th and after everybody had turned
• 9:46
  their back on him and everybody had left, pretty much everybody, pretty much.
• 9:50
  But now he's the president again. So there's a lot of crazy things that are happening.
• 9:56
  But I just wanted to kind of just get this started and get this ball rolling.
• 10:01
  What my thoughts were overall, it's a good thing.
• 10:03
  It's a good thing that Elon Musk is doing the things he's doing.
• 10:06
  And a lot of people are going to disagree with that. And that's a great thing
• 10:09
  that Donald Trump is poking the bear of the Middle East and saying,
• 10:14
  we're going to own some real estate in Israel,
• 10:19
  which whether it ends up happening or not, I would give a slight higher probability
• 10:25
  that it ends up happening.
• 10:27
  But there's also that it might not. And so he might just be playing that 40
• 10:32
  chess as something else that he could bring about a different outcome,
• 10:36
  you know, get the surrounding countries and just Israel and Palestine to kind
• 10:41
  of maybe come together somehow, somehow.
• 10:44
  But this could launch into a lot of biblical end times kind of thing,
• 10:49
  as in peace in the Middle East, you know, there's a lot there as well.
• 10:53
  We can get into that in another episode. Thank you for joining me today.
• 10:57
  And we'll just end it at that. Have a good one.
