Ana Kasparian — Batya Gets NUKED By Trump For Serving Israel's Interests

Bat O'ngar Sargon and Mark Levin have turned on Trump over efforts to end the conflict in Iran. They're like, "How dare you disobey Israel?" So, that sparked another interesting MAGA civil war, you know. >> Yes, it sure did. In fact, there there are some twists and turns. It's a bit of a roller coaster ride because typically the pro-Israel crowd can be as vicious and critical of anyone who doesn't tow the line and support anything and everything Israel wants to do, including its disastrous war in Iran. Now, Bat O'ngar Sargon has been let's just say a vociferous defender of the Trump administration and has even gone so far as to lie to the American people about how President Trump has really looked out for the working class, that his tariffs have been very beneficial for the working class, when it's actually been the opposite. A lot of small businesses have shuttered as a result of the ham-handed way he rolled out the tariffs, for instance. But nonetheless, she's not in favor of the memorandum of understanding which paves the way for a potential peace deal between the United States and Iran, and she has been running her mouth about it a lot. And I want to give you one example. Here you go. >> If this was a great deal for America and a bad deal for Israel, I would champion it because I see myself as an America first American. The problem is it's that it's an absolutely disastrous deal that has brought us to our knees weeks before our 250th birthday. This is an utter humiliation of the United States and everybody knows it. Everybody knows it, but especially Iran knows it. They are celebrating this. They are still calling us the enemy. And while Iran celebrates this and sneers at us for totally capitulating when we had complete military superiority over them, J.D. Vance is out there criticizing Israel, making up fantasies about how it is Israel's fault, and Israel wants Iran to be a failed state, and if only Israel would lay down its arms and allow Hezbollah to keep attacking it, there would be peace in the Middle East. It is disgusting. It is the complete Tucker Carlsonification of the Vice President of the United States, and it is utterly deplorable. The only good thing I can say about it is, if this was a dry run for Advance 2028, we sure learned a lot. >> She was also very active on social media, and I want to show you some more videos in just a moment, but after that segment, something a little surprising happened. Rapid Response 47, which is associated with the Trump administration, responded to Batya Ungar-Sargon and said the following. >> [gasps] >> The only humiliation here is Batya desperately begging for an additional brain cell because her failing TV show is even more irrelevant than the likes of Caitlan Collins and fake Tapper. Only a of her caliber could still doubt President Trump's leadership. Okay. I mean, >> it's juicy for sure, but like I think I think it's an American's right to doubt the president's leadership, especially Donald Trump on a whole host of things. Now, in this case, she's motivated by something that I find particularly deplorable, which is to try to squash the possibility of an actual peace deal, and she says it's I mean, she I don't know if she genuinely thinks, Cenk, that we can militarily accomplish these things that she wants to accomplish. We can't. If we could, we would have done that at this point. So, she says this MOU is so humiliating. Okay, yeah, I agree. It's humiliating because Iran won the war. We lost. But, can we just talk about the core of that humiliation? Cuz it stems from people like you who pushed for this war. We should not have entered this war. It's obvious there was no strategy in going into this war. Trump is like testing things out as he goes. >> Yeah. So, you don't want the MOU and you think it's going to be easy. Well, I have a a great suggestion for you. Why don't you send in the IDF as ground troops? Oh, so you don't think it's going to be easy. And so, you think it's going to be really, really difficult. That's why you want to send in Americans as ground troops. That's why you want America to continue the war because what do you need us for? If it's going to be that easy, why doesn't Israel do it by itself? Oh, no, I know. We're anti-Semitic if we don't pay all your bills and fight all your wars. And they say that and they say it with a straight face. >> do. >> Okay, so >> They say it at conferences almost every weekend. The JNS conference this past weekend. Just watch the live stream. >> No, they're crazed, totally detached from reality. Okay? >> Yeah. >> They and so, uh that look, Batya being uh hilariously wrong and biased about this is not news, okay? Uh there isn't a single Israeli position she hasn't loved to death uh and hasn't demanded that we all follow and if we don't all follow it, we're all anti-Semites. That's boring, okay? What's interesting is Steven Cheung. That's what I believe. That sounds like Steven Cheung. I don't know for a fact that it is. But, for the first time amusing me, okay? [laughter] Now that >> No, that was amusing, for sure. Yeah. >> Uh the White House slapping that hard back is something that I haven't seen in a long time against a supporter of Israel. >> Exactly. That's what was surprising to me about it. >> they they blast the left, no problem at all. But, apparently someone in the White House means the the deal, Anna. You see what I'm saying? And I have to give them credit, Fake Tapper is funny. >> I knew [snorts] you'd like that. Okay, but I want to show you one other video. So, this was after um the rapid response 47 uh you know, post on X. Uh so, what I actually want to go to C3 if you guys don't mind. Take a look at what she had to say about just how embarrassing these negotiations are for the American people. >> Every video I've seen coming out of Switzerland has been utterly humiliating. We are the world's greatest superpower, and yet we have so obviously been brought to our knees. We are the ones who are showing up with this aura of desperation, such that they can tweet the most despicable things at us. We just destroyed their navy and their economy, and yet it's us who are showing up as if on bended knee begging them to open the Strait of Hormuz. This is an utter disaster, [clears throat] and not just on the Iran on the Iran front. It's a disaster on the global stage. I mean, what message do you think this sends to China? That we can be so easily brought down after such a phenomenal military success. It just makes an utter mockery of American power, and I find that really horrifying to countenance. >> You are the source of the humiliation, Batya. You and Zionists like you are the source of the humiliation. We have been humiliated because we can't militarily do what Israel wants the United States to do. If we could militarily do it, I mean, I I I get it. Like she she's engaged in magical thinking. I think she genuinely thinks we are the superpower she thinks we are. Okay, but we're not anymore. That's the truth, because we have depleted weaponry that we would need to carry out the kinds of operations that in her magical thinking we would carry out. We are not going to dedicate hundreds of thousands of US soldiers to fight Israel's war for them, at least I don't think we are. And we are $40 trillion in debt, Batya. And you know what? That segment in particular, Cenk, made it so clear to me that her pro-working-class identity, right, is just a facade. >> That's the only thing she cares about is Israel. Come on. Guys, look at it. I mean, and I every single segment that she does is pro-Israel. And then she's like, "Oh, all of these completely pro-Israel positions that the Israeli government has demanded would also coincidentally be good for you." I mean, it involves you losing hundreds of billions of dollars and several Americans several dozen Americans at a bare minimum and at least a hundred billion dollars already from this war. But trust me, it is really good for you. It just coincidentally happens that Israel is in favor of every one of those actions I say on in American media. What a coincidence. And by the way, So she's a super minor character. That's not interesting. Uh what's interesting is NewsNation, CNN, MSNBC, >> Every single one of them. >> every single cable news outlet has someone exactly like her on their TV, a general, a businessman, a pundit, a politician, Democrat, Republican, it doesn't matter. This peace deal is humiliating. Trump can't do this deal. Haha, we're going to make so much fun of Trump for this deal. Yeah, only only an idiot would do this deal. Don't do this DEAL. GO BACK INTO WAR FOR ISRAEL. OH, that's a coincidence that every single ex- expert you have on is in favor of more war for Israel? My ass that's a coincidence. Our media is disgustingly corrupt. There was only one thing I agree with her on. She says this Well, actually two. Uh she says uh that this is the Tucker Carlson-ification of of uh the Republican Party. Well, if that was true, then you're uh paying Tucker Carlson an enormous compliment, right? And so now uh I would say that Tucker Carlson is against this war. If J.D. Vance really means it and he turns against the war, then you would be right that he's going towards Tucker Carlson. Except that Tucker Carlson today left the Republican Party. Cuz he's so sure that they're going to keep serving Israel and keep going into more wars. So he even he's done with even the JD Vance crew. So, he's closer to your camp. >> Jake, I think no. I I totally disagree with what you're saying. This is not the Tucker carlification of our foreign policy. Number one, I don't trust JD Vance and Donald Trump in actually pushing for peace. Especially Trump who tried to sabotage the peace talks over the weekend in Switzerland by threatening the lives of the Iranian delegation that showed up for the peace talks. >> No, but she's specific. Yeah. >> Let me just finish my point. Uh but the other thing is Tucker Carlson to your point earlier, just right now, he would end the weapon supply to Israel and end the war. So, like be careful what you're what you're asking for here Batya because honestly, if we really had Tucker Carlson's version of responding to this war ending it, he wouldn't just end it by engaging in diplomatic talks. He would end it by stopping the the supply and flow of weapons to Israel. >> Yeah, but JD Vance for this hot minute and we'll see how long this minute last did go more towards Tucker Carlson, but you're saying it's not enough and we don't really believe it and that's fair and Tucker Carlson agrees. That's why he just left the Republican Party. But, one last thing I do agree with that us bowing down to foreign leaders that are terrorists is humiliating except you just got the wrong leader. Benjamin Netanyahu with an 83% civilian kill ratio and 70 times the number of people killed as Hamas civilians killed as Hamas. >> [snorts] >> Uh is obviously a giant terrorist leader, maybe the largest terrorist leader right now in the world and we keep bowing to him. Our media does, our politicians do and it's humiliating. He'll come to our Congress and get standing ovations >> Yep. >> when he's like, "Hey, I want more money for genocide and for more wars." And all of our politicians grovel to him. You're right, that is deeply humiliating. So, we shouldn't grovel to anyone, not to Iran and not to Israel, but they'll say no, no, no. Make sure you destroy Iran on behalf of Israel. And when the Israeli leader comes, everyone on their knees. >> Now, you say that Batia is a minor character in all of this, but someone who's played an outsized role both in size and voice is Mark Levin. And I want to show you what he had to say in regard to efforts at peace. >> I want to say to people in and out of the administration, stop trashing, smearing, bullying the little state of Israel. Stop cosying up to and telling us that the enemy regime in Iran is now more rational, more moderate, and a regime that we can deal with. When just a few months ago they slaughtered 50,000 people, they're still hanging young people today. And if they had a nuclear missile today, they'd fire it into our country as sure as I'm alive. I don't know what's going on, but if people think they can bully a little country, and really a people that have existed 4,000 years through the Babylonians and the Persians, through the Romans and the Third Reich, into surrendering their defense and their decision on how to secure their country, they got another thing coming. I think it's outrageous when we used to see the Secretary of War and the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff daily here on Fox tell us of the fantastic marriage symmetry between our militaries in defeating this enemy. I'm really appalled by this, and I hope it comes to an end sooner than later. >> We would have been in a far better position if we were allied with Iran as opposed to Israel. That would be a much better world, but alas, that's not the situation we exist in. So, I understand what Mark Levin is saying there, Jenk. Um please stop demanding that the Israelis stop killing innocents and encroaching on land and territory that doesn't belong to them in an effort to steal it. >> Yeah, if you think that Israel is defending itself by taking Southern Lebanon, a part of a different country, you've lost your mind. You just don't know it. Uh like if you genuinely believe it like oh no, self-defense include means we take Western Syria and Southern Lebanon and most of the West Bank and most of Gaza. No, that's not self-defense. You're kidding yourself and you've lost your mind. So, uh you if you notice with Mark Levin, when he's talking about we, he's always talking about Israel. He's like, you have to defend Israel. You you have to do this, this, this, and this for Israel. Everything is for Israel. Like who if imagine and you know, you know the example I always use the same population for Papua New Guinea as Israel. Imagine if there was a commentator who constantly was like you have to do this for Papua New Guinea and that for not Papua New Guinea and start a war for Papua New Guinea, otherwise you're all racist. People are like, what kind of lunatic did they let on there? And think about it, guys. Batya has almost no audience. Mark Levin now almost has no audience. Uh Ben Shapiro has almost no audience, but yet we hear about them on the media 24/7. Why do we hear about them when they have almost no audience at all? And the reason for that is because the rest of the media aids and abets that. They amplify their voices as if they're big and legitimate uh influencers in the right-wing media ecosystem. Nobody listens to them in the right-wing anymore. And and did you notice the lie that he put in there? When they first started lying about how many protesters Iran killed, which Mossad has uh uh said publicly they instigated the protests against Iran, they instigated the violence, >> Yeah. Yeah. >> So, that was always propaganda, Israeli propaganda. They started with a made-up number, 30,000, right? >> Oh, yeah. That's >> And we asked them to justify it and they couldn't give one shred of proof that there was 30,000 killed. So, then it went to 40,000, then it went to 42,000 which was hilariously specific. And if you just notice, Levine just moved it up to 50,000. >> Right, right. It's just come on. >> Sure, sure. And we guys, this isn't over a stretch of a long period of time. It's all on table over a short period of time. We saw the number move from 30 to 50 all with our own eyes. >> Aren't you offended at how often they insult your intelligence? Like they lie to your face with the most brazen lies and they think you're stupid enough to believe it. It's amazing, it really is. One other thing that he said though, Cenk, is that the real warmongers, the real warmongers, are the isolationists. >> [laughter] >> It's amazing. It's so amazing. Anyway, >> Yeah, and what one last thing for me, he said in that 17-minute uh diatribe, yeah, and and on Axios well that uh that >> Mhm. >> Israel doesn't have to listen to any advice from J.D. Vance or the American government. We have A RIGHT TO DEFEND OURSELVES BY TAKING ALL OF YOUR LAND AND HOMES. SO, we don't need to take your advice. You also don't need to take our money. So, if you don't want our advice and you won't listen to anything we do, then obviously we shouldn't give you the money. >> I totally agree with you on that, Cenk. >> In fact, no rational person could disagree with that. The only way you could disagree is saying, "Well, all Americans are anti-Semites and they owe Israel all their money, so you should all shut up and do as Israel orders." And those people think that they're rational, too. They're called Zionists. >> Yeah. >> And they don't realize they're in a cult totally detached from reality. Every time you ring the bell below, an angel gets its wings. Totally not true, but it
