IHIP News: Trump ADMITS to SECRET Plans for Bulletproof Bunker in His Ballroom? What is He Planning?

People with dementia start telling you. the truth from time to time. They wander. and wander and wander, but think about. old people that you know on their. deathbed. I'll say, "Well, you know, my. oldest child was always my favorite.". And the truth trickles out. So, I've. said the last few months we need to keep. an eye on everything that the leader of. the unfree world, which is now Kanks. He. is not the leader of the free world, he's the leader of the unfree world as. reference to the fascist with whom he.

wants to collaborate. Well, I've been. listening to a lot of the things that he. says in his rambling speeches, and this. one particularly got my attention. Play. the clip. 10 of as an example, I'm doing a. magnificent big beautiful ballroom. that. the country has wanted, the White House. has wanted for 150 years. It's a massive job and it's a tiny. fraction of that number, and we're under. budget and ahead of schedule. Now, it's.

it's bigger than I told you. I It's you. know, after realizing we're going to do the. inauguration in that building, it's got all bulletproof glass, it's got. all drone they call it drone-free roof. Okay, right there. >> drones. Why is he talking about the. inauguration, bulletproof glass, and a. drone-free. roof? Why is he talking about that? Whose inauguration is he discussing. there? Typically, the incoming.

president-elect will determine where. they want their inauguration. Typically, it's on the mall. And he recently, because he knew that his inauguration in. his second term was going to be poorly. attended, he moved it inside because of. weather, because we know how these MAGA. men that pretend to be alphas are. snowflakes because of cold weather, I. guess. But, he's already talking about the. inauguration like it's a foregone. conclusion. The inauguration is going to. be held in there and with bulletproof. glass. And I just thought this was.

really really a tell. It tells me he's not planning on. leaving. He thinks he's going to be. there forever. It's become a bunker. because nobody can get him out of it. And the thing is, like you said, he. tells everything that he's thinking. And all he talks about is this [ __ ]. ballroom. He doesn't give a [ __ ] about. anything but the ballroom. And I'll tell. you what, it's terrifying to think that. he's not going to leave and nobody's. going to be able to get him out of his. new bunker.

The One of the most difficult things. that I know that you all experience. this, too, is just the daily abuse of. watching these egregious crimes and. human rights violations, and nobody. stopping them. Nobody Nobody is doing. anything to really put up a guardrail. If you think about Mitch McConnell as a. Senate minority leader, how productive. he was when he was in the minority. He. had power, he wielded it, he used it. unapologetically. So, the Republicans,

of course, aren't going to do anything. The Supreme Court isn't going to do. anything. And the thing that concerns me. so much are all of the billionaires that. have capitulated. to him. And they capitulated to him. during the campaign. You have Elon Musk. that bought Twitter to game the. algorithms, gave Trump $300 cuz he. himself was trying to prevent criminal. charges against Musk. That's why he got. access to doge, the keys to the federal. government, shut down investigations.

into himself. Trump himself was able to. prevent going to prison. You have Jeff. Bezos that spiked the endorsement of the. Washington Post. And think about how. what a fall that is for the media, for. the free press. Jamal Khashoggi, who was. a US resident and an employee of the. Washington Post, was murdered by Saudi. Arabia, who the son-in-law of the. president of the unfree world got $2.

billion from. Jeff Bezos knows all of. this. And so, it's not that people hate billionaires, it's that the system creates. billionaires that are billionaires. because they exploit people, and they're. shitty people. Jeff Bezos is a shitty person. He fights. the unionization of these Amazon. employees that work a million times. harder than he does. And he demeans them. and he the the the fight of these.

billionaires to demean hardworking. people is getting a lot of traction. And. when I first saw this tweet and excerpt. that I'm about to put up from Matt. Yglesias, I thought it had to be satire. But, I'm afraid it's not. Put this up. Matt Yglesias tweets, "First, they came. for the billionaires." And he says, "It's time to take a bold stand in. defense of America's oft-maligned. billionaire class." And an excerpt from. his Substack is, "It feels a little.

absurd to absurd to write a. pro-billionaire post or do takes like. not all billionaires or say that some of. the billionaires I've met over the years. have been very thoughtful and perceptive. people. I guess I don't really think. that anti-billionaire demagoguery is. going to get out of hand and lead to. blood in the streets and orgies of. destruction. But, I do see people. working themselves up, not about the. details of tax policy or the regulation. or any particular business, but about. billionaires in general, and I think. it's emotionally and intellectually.

unhealthy.". This is insane. The propaganda that is. starting right now that these. billionaires are aggrieved. And these. are the people that are These people are. triggered by everything and ashamed of. nothing. The fact that these. billionaires were able to ascend in the. system that was created in this country. We have more billionaires than any. country in the world. And at the same.

time that all of this wealth is. accumulating, the working class is stagnant and or. decreasing. And you have a decades-long. propaganda campaign from the Republican. Party that if somebody wants to be in a. union, the unions are evil. In our. state, they say, "Oh, these teachers. unions are so evil." Teachers in. Oklahoma make maybe 35 grand a year, but. we're ranked 50th in education. The. problem aren't isn't the teachers, the. problem is the system. The system that.

wants to allow PragerU and all of these. other people to come in to keep the. electorate dumb. So, why is this. conversation about billionaires linked. to what he's talking about with the. bulletproof inauguration? It is because they have told us they. want a new world order. Elon Musk has. said recently, I don't know if he's on. ketamine or not when he says this, but. who cares? You won't need to worry about. saving money because nobody's going to. be poor anymore. That's an extraordinary. claim. And that would require.

extraordinary evidence. And also, is. that communism? What the [ __ ] are they. talking about? Also, Peter Thiel has. said he doesn't believe that democracy. is compatible in the modern world. anymore. And these people have found. their imperfect vessels. So, both the. right-wing Christians have found this. guy as their imperfect vessel to oppress. women, to oppress black people, to. oppress immigrants, to oppress the. LGBTQ+ people. And then you have the.

oligarchs. And these these technocrats. are really horrible people. Like, the. more you get to know about them, the more horrible they are. Like, Elon. Musk spends the majority of his time on. Twitter. browbeating minorities, LGBTQ+ people. He's wound up about this. lesbian that was appointed to FDNY. commissioner like this is somehow going. to be the the fall of civilization. And this man is the world's richest.

man. And I don't see anything in his. fingerprints that he's left on this. earth where he's making it a better. place. All I have seen is destruction. and death from this man. And it echoes. through that now we have Matt Yglesias. getting everybody to feel. bad for billionaires. Like, if these. people were good people Right. that. said, "Look, we've made too much money, we need to pay more in taxes." Like, Mitt Romney, now that he's no longer in. politics, he's really rich. He's like,

"We're going to have to rich We're going. to have to tax rich people like me." And. I'm like, "Well, when you ran for. president, you were all chips in on this. exact same plan that has made all of. these people wealthy and and abandoned. the working class." When you look at it. and you think the minimum wage in the. United States has been the same for. decade for over a decade, $7.25. an hour. And these billionaires have. gotten richer than ever, and they're. bitching about paying taxes.

and health insurance, and they think. that social safety nets are bad. What are we doing? Why is Matt Yglesias. not spending his time talking about. giving people a livable wage and. companies requiring health care? The. pro-billionaire thing, do you think it's the intoxication that. we have with in America that. capitalism's so great, so these people. want to capitalism, so they're so great? Because I look at them and think they're.

bringing down society. I mean, Peter. Thiel with this antichrist [ __ ] and. you know, common people aren't smart. enough, so now all the rich people need. to have all the power. Like, what the. [ __ ] is going on? It's crazy. >> Well, let's read some analysis into. this. Here is a tweet from. Austin Allman in response to Matt. Yglesias. He says, "The calculation. appears to be that with a careful mix of. bad faith. and helpful bit of algorithmic.

amplification from Musk, they can. polarize online liberals into hating. labor unions and small business owners. more than billionaires. And this right. here, this has been super effective in. red states. So, if you look at what. they're doing nationally, it's started. in red states. The demeaning of poor. people, the demeaning of labor unions, the of small businesses started in MAGA. supermajorities first. Look at the. economies in these states, look at the.

education system, look at the well-being. for its citizens, look at the safety in. these states. They are bottom-10 states. MAGA supermajorities only benefit the. elites. But, they pitch this propaganda. to working-class people, to people of. faith, weaponize their faith faith. against them, and use aspirational. things like, "Oh, Elon Musk must be so. smart because he's so rich." Well, I. mean, if you look at the way Elon Musk. behaves, he doesn't I I bought into it.

at first years ago because I hadn't seen. him really speak, and this is when he. was doing Tesla, and all the liberals. were buying Tesla. Then, when he started. supporting Trump, and I actually started. listening to him speak, I was like, "What the [ __ ] is this guy talking. about?". Like, he's not even making any sense. And he goes on to Joe Rogan all the. time, and Joe Rogan is like the biggest. billionaire worshiper. It's like he just. allows anybody that to come on to his. podcast that's wealthy, and he just. assumes, "This person just must be so rich." And.

so, if you multiply that, Joe Rogan has. the largest podcast in the country. A. lot of people must, you know, pick up. what he's putting down. And so, when you think about the billionaire. class right now, it's not so much that I. hate billionaires. I hate the system. that has um uh. bred them. But, also, these billionaires. are not likable people. at all. Like, Jeff Bezos and his wedding. was so over-the-top and gross. And then,

you have like Bernie Sanders, the only. person that's consistently fighting for. working-class Americans, talking about how these Amazon workers. are trying to get a union to get. healthcare, like really basic things. And then, you have this percentage of. people on Elon Musk's website that are. just going bananas about labor unions in. defense of Jeff Bezos. And I'm like, "You think he's going to fly your ass. over to Venice or to Aspen to go to his. wedding?" It's never going to happen.

You think you're going to go to. Mar-a-Lago and hang out with all these. fat cats? No. They think and look down upon you. Trump has said about his supporters, "I. wish they didn't look so trashy." And. so, the the the use of these people, but. here's what's interesting about where. there's an intersection in the Venn. diagram between Republicans and. Democrats. There always seems to be this uh. desire to please.

patriarchal elites. Even Democrats, there always seems to be like I always. think about when Kamala was trotting. around with Liz Cheney. Who was she. trying to get? What voter group was she. trying to get? She was trying to get. white women that are wealthy. Because do. do people that are out there working. couple jobs, do they know who Liz Cheney. is? Right. No. All right, listener, quit getting. misinformed and start getting informed.

And the best way to do this is to go to. Ground News and download their app and. sign up for the Vantage plan. It's what. Pumps and I use every single day. Here's. a prime example. Here's a headline from. the left. "Trump diverts. Congress-approved funds for {quote}. warrior dividend." Because of the Ground. News Vantage plan, I know that this. article has a very high factuality. Same. subject, different headline. "Trump: Over 1 million military service members. to get {quote} warrior dividend." I know.

that this article has mixed factuality.

Here is Gunnels, Warren Gunnels. So, this is in response These are stats. in response to Matt Iglesius's defense. of billionaires. Elon Musk's wealth in 2012, 2 billion.

In 2025, 737. billion. dollars. A lot of that subsidized by the. working-class people that they say. shouldn't have healthcare or be able to. join a union. Jeff Bezos, 18 billion in in 2012. In. 2025, 255. billion. Mark neutered Zuckerberg.

He went on He went on a podcast and said. he felt like he had been neutered. This. neutered Here's And here's the thing. In 2012, when he felt felt like he. wasn't neutered, he was worth 18 billion. dollars. Somewhere between 2025 20. I'm doing what you do, Pumps. Sometime between 2012. and 2025, he's gone from 18 billion to 234. billion. And in between that time, those.

13 years, he feels like he got neutered. But, the fact of the matter is, he he. gained over 200 billion dollars in. wealth. 200 billion dollars of wealth. And after earning all of that, he gets. to a podcast and says he feels like he's. been neutered. So, are these people ever. going to be happy? And then, here's the. federal tipped minimum wage. Since 1991, $2.13. Since 2025, $2.13. Well, and minimum wage $7.25. But, let.

me just say this. If you have that kind. of money, you know what that used to be. called? [ __ ] you money. [ __ ] you, I'm. not going to bow down. And what we've. found with this class of billionaires, they make up trophies, and they go give. them to Trump, they kiss his ass, they. do all this [ __ ] for him. So, maybe. they're not as free because they're not. taking their money and saying, "Fuck. you, we're not going to, you know, become a slave to you and your. authoritarian ways." They're running. around saying, "Yes, leader. Yes, dear.

leader." And it's just incredible to me. because I feel like if I had that kind. of money, and Trump said, "I'm going to. do a Trump phone," and I'm [ __ ] the. head of Apple, I'd be like, "Fucking. bring it. Every single thing you have. touched, you have destroyed." So, [ __ ] bring it. What does Tim Cook do? He runs in with the fake trophy. Like, these are the most beta men, power-hungry, non-fuck-you-money masculine people I've. ever seen in my life. Well, and my thing.

is, like, what are these people so mad. at? It seems like the billionaires are. always just so mad. And like, you've got. everything you want. You got the. dictator you wanted, you've got billions. of dollars just from 2012 to uh. 2025. Their wealth. is. it's it's insane. And no other career. are you able to game the system like. that. And the reason these people are. billionaires is because they live in a.

system that allows them to exploit. labor. The most interesting component of. that to for me was the tipped uh wage. Because a lot of these people, like. Starbucks, for example, we, the consumers of Starbucks, have to. tip these employees because the owner of. Starbucks doesn't allow them to. unionize. And we have always allowed in. our culture, this tipping culture that. we have, to allow the CEOs and the board of.

directors to make a [ __ ] ton of money. while working-class people are covering. the wages. And this this is goes all the. way through from the infrastructure. issue that I brought up multiple times. with Jeff Bezos, and um uh Elon Musk. getting all of these subsidies for his. cars. But, while all of this stuff is. happening here, while all of this stuff. is happening, China is excelling in everything because. Trump is taking us backwards. And these. billionaires want to see a permanent.

structure of this type of government. And that's why I go back to the. beginning of this where he's talking. about his bulletproof bunker. I and his bulletproof inauguration, which is like J.D. Vance being the heir. apparent who these billionaires. intentionally put in place. Trump didn't. really like J.D. Vance. He didn't want. J.D. Vance in there. But, the. billionaires said, "We'll fund you.".

Bezos said, "I'll spike the football.". And uh. uh. Peter Thiel in particular, and I want to. remind all of the MAGA people, I don't. care about this, but you all claim to. care about this immensely, that Peter Thiel and Elon Musk are. immigrants. Yes. They are immigrants. that get taxpayer subsidies. So, while. you're thinking, "Oh my god, what am I. going to do about my um you know health. care costs? They don't give a [ __ ] about it because. your taxpayer money that prevents you.

from getting good health insurance is. going to subsidize these billionaires. and I'm going to leave you all with. this. Here is a very interesting. analysis on Twitter from John Gans. on the Matt Iglesias post and he says. the correct Marxist line on billionaires. is not that they are too powerful. but that they are impotent. They. represent the waste of hoarding of. society's productive powers. The growth.

of billionaires coincides with. stagnation. and a decline in economic dynamism. And. I thought this was so poignant and I. thought that this part about hoarding of. society's productive powers and we did. an episode in the last couple of days. where we spoke about these billionaires. [ __ ] the bed over a billionaire tax. that might happen in California. These people want to hoard. They want to hoard money and they get.

people like Matt Iglesias to defend. them. I can understand possibly if you. saw Elon Musk instead of tearing down. USAID that was like I want to add a lot. of my wealth to this. I want to. eliminate. you know childhood hunger. I want to use. all of my wealth to help the society. But it's not the people that that that. Matt Iglesias are defending here are. horrible people that are hoarders. They. are hoarding money and at the same time.

they're demonizing. unions and demonizing working class. people and labeling them as parasites. when the parasites are the people that. are [ __ ] the bed all over Twitter. right now because they might have to pay. anywhere from 1 to 5%. That 1 to 5% in taxes affects their. lives zero. Zero. It affects the trajectory of the working. class of Americans immensely. It affects.

the trajectory of economic growth and. economic stability immensely but none of. these people see long term. They're. ready to rape and pillage the planet and. just leave it for other generations to. deal with. These are short-sighted. people and it's me me me me me. That's. the worst thing about American. capitalism and American white. evangelicalism. is this me me me me me syndrome. There's. no collectivism. There's no long-term.

God you know. I really hate paying taxes. Guess what. billionaires? Nobody likes it. Nobody. likes it. But if I'm worth 600 billion. and I have to pay 1 to 5%. what does it matter? Big deal. Right. I. mean but here's the thing. It just tells you the entitlement that. they feel. I'm entitled to have all. these things and to get all these. subsidies for my yachts. And you are less than me because you're.

working class or you work for an hourly. wage. I'm better than you. And so you. just see the demeaning of people and the. entitlement. These billionaires are the. epicenter. And it's sad that so many Americans. buy into it. They allow these. billionaires that have exploited them to. define them. Yeah. And that's just so. sad and also I just want to say. anybody that's a billionaire or involved. in MAGA, why the [ __ ] are you so mad. right now? You got everything you want. You got the house. You got the Senate. You got the presidency. You got the. Supreme Court.

Zuckerberg has hundreds of billions of. dollars and after he ascends to all of. this he gets on a podcast and says I. feel like I've been neutered. Like is. that what being a billionaire gets you? Madder than a hornet? You want to hoard. stuff and you feel like you've been. neutered and you have to go make up some. trophy and go present it to some man. with dementia that's a total piece of. [ __ ]. You know like there's never been an. advertisement against billionaires as. much as there is this class of just. shitty billionaires. They're so. unlikable. They're so unlikable. They have no res.

So it surprises me zero. that J.D. Vance is their chosen one. Yep. All right, that's all we have. Like, subscribe. Hey, make sure you. subscribe and we'll see you all later. [Music].
