Mehdi, this was absolutely brilliant! I hope you do it frequently.

Many of my Jewish friends and colleagues are very upset with me because I take the position that Israel has committed war crimes. Speaking truth is always hard...

Thank you Jeff!

I am Jewish and I agree with you, Jeff.

Your Jewish friends deserve democracy. The current regimes there and here are not that.

I expected the economic plan, the destruction of Gaza, the harassment of allies, the destruction of the Civil Service. I listened to Trump's threats and I believed them. I knew he would install a kleptocracy. What has surprised me is his threats to steal land from our allies and to threaten Panama. He is vile in every way. I hope he meets his Waterloo sooner rather than later.

It is a Kleptocracy and Kakistocracy and Oligarchy all rolled into one.

Getting into fights with Canada! I really never expected that, even from Trump. After all, they're mostly white.

I think he was driven by his animosity towards Trudeau, who was caught on video mocking Trump, as well as his envy of Trudeau's intelligence, eloquence, and charm. Trump holds a grudge for life unless you succumb to his bullying.

And that picture of Trudeau airkissing Melania, and Melania looking pleased.

But he isn't letting up, even though it's a new PM.

...expected the destruction of... a place with its own indigenous population, filled with unarmed civilians .... oh. Like, the Wild West was empty and ready to settle I guess.

I fear he WON'T meet his waterloo...

Where can I see the new film The Encampment?? I have searched for it, but it seems to only be in NYC and LA right now? I saw No Other Land and am appalled by the beating of the producer recently!! OUTRAGEOUS!!

Thank you so much! I’m a professor at Rowan University in New Jersey and want to take my students who are organized for justice in Palestine to see the film. It looks like we’ll need to run up to NYC to see it. Road Trip for a cause!

Thank you so much for your watchful eyes. In the battles we have had Ttump fired federal employees, and took them back on paid leave. This is gross negligence, a civil crime me against all of us taxpayer. WE lost no EMPLOYEES. We gained angry warfighter soldiers steeped in knowledge of what to do, and who know the local geography and what roads to shut down. These freedom warfighters can now speak and fight openly for our cause. This is a huge and expert Army now. (Pissed bureaucrats know how to keep butter from melting, even in a hot oven.) They will hit the streets Very boldly. TODAY!

And the Administration: Pete Hegseth whisked out of town. JD Vance whisked out of town. Mike Waltz whisked out of town. The 3 top conspirators muffled so as not to leak the truth. Simpletons were left to gaslight and perjure themselves. Anyone that says the national defense information was not classified WHEN DIVULGED has committed perjury. Need I say more. Nice graphic is spinning in my mind with my loud thought. In DC, it sounded like the thunder of a covey of quail getting up and scattering for cover. Why would they want to miss the limelight and all the microphones? Just not like them, is it?

OUR SILENCE WILL NOT PROTECT US!! The fascists claim we are WOKE, but it appears that much of the left is asleep right now! Thank you for speaking to the madness- there is strength in our numbers. Is it true that Florida is planning to legalize child labor to fill the void of undocumented workers who are being deported??

Medhi, your reporting and media company is amazing. MSNBC messed up by letting you go. I'm thankful for their ignorance, because Zeteo is fire. Thanks for bringing us the madness and facts behind this regime. Your coverage is so critical.

Thanks

As bad as I expected and wrote about almost every day for three years. If you elect a felon, you must expect lawlessness and cruelty.

What?! We are ALREADY fascist...next step...we will be mowed down in the streets....

Massive and sustained strategic nonviolent resistance is needed right now. It is powerful but counterintuitive, so you must be trained. This is the way forward.

Please do more of these "Unload" chats. We all need it. Thank you Zeteo team 💜

Will do, thanks

I didn’t expect him to try destabilizing Canada and threaten Greenland for longer than a month. I should have expected the deportations based on the Gaza protests.

Come on You are in the shit right now and it still seems that everyone are the ones wo refuse to believe that it is happening. I really like this channel but I find that the content is coming so fast and so furious that it overwhelms me on a daily sometimes hourly basis. Find out what can be done in this Fascist situation and do something about it. It's not GOING to happen it IS happening. You need to get out there and put up fights. All in a team please. This is the first thing. No, this is the real deal. IT's no good. So please let's get to it and stop putting it in the future. The future is NOW.

Can we visit our family from uk without being send back ?

Expand full comment

I expect it's a bit risky. I assume, if your family is in the UK, that you weren't born in the US. If you are citizens, it's risky but slightly less. If just Green Card, it's super risky.

Talk to a good immigration lawyer before you go.

Hey Mehdi, there's a show idea. Interview a good immigration lawyer.
