27 Aug 2025

Transcription

Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?

3.895 - 17.935 Unknown

Loman loppuminen ja pakkaaminen voi tuntua ikävältä. Jopa niin ikävältä, että laukkujen kasaaminen oven eteen tuntuu hyvältä ajatukselta. Säärebori. Lomia joiden et soisi loppuvan.

23.943 - 44.429 Unknown

Laskettelimme hiihtolomien hintoja. Ostan nyt talven tarjoushintaiset junaliput. Esimerkiksi Helsinki-Tampere alkaen 4.90 ja Oulu-Helsinki alkaen 14.90. Kampanja voimassa 18. tammikuuta asti. VR. Yhteisellä matkalla.

48.007 - 64.713 Unknown

Herra budjettiministeri, kuinka neuvottelut sujuivat? Kiteytän lopputuloksen kahteen sanaan. Suk C. Voitteko hieman tarkentaa? Suk C, sau, vaa, mo, no. Mitä nyt hiihtämiseen tarvitaan? Mutta mitä? Sitä, että toimittaja on hyvä ja suk C siitä budjesporttiin. Sieltä saa kaikki hiihtovermeet nyt liikuttavan halvalla.

India's Prime Minister Modi is not returning Donald Trump's phone calls. Donald Trump has attempted to call Modi four times begging Modi, or as Donald Trump says, begging like a dog for Modi to pick up to try to make some sort of deal or arrangement.

85.435 - 104.048 Ben Meiselas

tai että Donald Trump voi yrittää vahvistaa, kun Indiassa vahvistetaan vahvempia yhdistelmiä Suomessa ja muualla ja jatketaan Yhdysvalloista, mutta Modi ei oteta huoneen. Luulen, että tämä on tärkeä opetus siitä, miten sinun täytyy käsitellä Donaldta. Voit vain sanoa ei.

Chapter 2: Why is Modi refusing to take Trump's phone calls?

104.048 - 133.208 Ben Meiselas

to this guy and walk away. And Prime Minister Modi is showing how you do that. This is from the Telegraph right here, talks about how Modi is ignoring Donald Trump's call. So the United States has tariffed India basically 50%. They started with the 10%, then added another 15%, and then Donald Trump added another 25% a few weeks ago. And then India said, you know what, F you, basically. If that's how you're going to treat us, if you're going to humiliate us,

0

133.208 - 161.035 Ben Meiselas

We're not going to be dealing with you anymore. India is also pissed that Donald Trump continues to try to take credit for brokering a ceasefire between India and Pakistan after the terrorist attacks in the Kashmir region. And India is like, you had nothing to do with that at all. Stop trying to take credit because that's an infringement on our sovereignty. Donald, you had nothing to do with it. J.D. Vance tried to reach out to us

0

161.035 - 184.12 Ben Meiselas

and try to say, we're warning you, Pakistan's going to be attacking you. We didn't take JD Vance's phone call. So stop saying you brokered a peace deal. This is a major issue with India. And you know now for what, three plus months, maybe even longer? We've been covering this on the Midas Touch Network. When everyone said, oh, the United States and India is going to do a trade deal. I said, no, they're not.

0

184.12 - 203.965 Ben Meiselas

People were like, yes they are, Trump says. I go, don't give me Trump says. Can we look at what's happening at a geopolitical level and can you listen to what India's foreign minister is saying? Can you listen to what Modi is saying? Can you listen to what all the high ranking officials in India are saying? And can you also see that they're super pissed?

203.965 - 225.532 Ben Meiselas

mitä he tunnevat Pakistanin ostamiseksi vaikutuksia Yhdysvalloille ostamiseksi Donald Trumpin perheeseen kripto-ohjelmaan. Pakistan alkoi pakistanisen kripto-ohjelman ja sitten he kasvoivat paljon rahaa investointeihin maailmanliberalaisessa finanssissa, WLF.

Chapter 3: What are the implications of Trump's tariffs on India?

225.532 - 247.081 Ben Meiselas

whose majority owners are the Trump family. Take a look at this post from April 26th, 2025 by someone by the name of Witkoff. Does that sound familiar to you? Yep, Steve Witkoff, Donald Trump's real estate buddy, who's the failed envoy to Russia. His son, Zach Witkoff,

0

247.081 - 266.032 Ben Meiselas

Zak Witkoff toimii World Liberty Financialissa ja sanoo aprilis-26, että historiallinen päivä World Liberty Financialissa MOU-kysymykseemme pakistanissa. Toivomme, että saamme monimuotoisuutta ja taloudellista yhdessä.

0

266.032 - 288.745 Ben Meiselas

to the next generation in Pakistan and beyond. Oh, that's interesting. Take a look at this photo. The Pakistan Crypto Council, PCC's chief executive author Bilal bin Saqib, meets with the Pakistan field marshal Munir. Saqib's PCC in April signed a letter of intent with World Liberty Financial.

0

288.745 - 313.349 Ben Meiselas

Oh, but then what happened pretty recently? Oh, was that happened in June, where Pakistan army's chief, Asim Munir, met with Donald Trump at the White House, spent hours with Donald Trump at the White House, legitimizing the Pakistani government over India, while Donald Trump's tariffing India, rolling out the red carpet for the Pakistani army general, Munir,

0

313.349 - 331.22 Ben Meiselas

After the crypto investment in the Trump family venture, India sees what's going on. So India is like, you're mocking our sovereignty by claiming you brokered a ceasefire between India and Pakistan. You've thrown out decades of relationship building between India.

Chapter 4: How is India responding to Trump's claims of mediating peace?

331.22 - 357.528 Ben Meiselas

The world's largest democracies. By the way, it has its problems. I'm not going to go act like India is this perfect place or that Modi is this perfect guy. Let me be clear. It has its issues, okay? But America cultivated that relationship with India. One of the fastest growing economies in the world. America worked very hard to move India towards the United States and away from China. And Trump has screwed that all up.

0

357.528 - 383.06 Ben Meiselas

which is going to harm America's financial, economic, academic, overall interests significantly. So India's like, you didn't do the peace deal, number one. Stop saying you didn't. Two, you're taking all this money from Pakistan. You've screwed over India's students with your attack on academic institutions. So like, what the hell are you doing? You're meeting with the Pakistani general. So here's the article from The Telegraph. Modi's saying...

0

383.06 - 401.2 Ben Meiselas

I ain't taking this guy's phone calls. Trump's trying to call Modi right now, and Modi's ignoring him. Modi, the Indian prime minister, has ignored Trump's phone calls. Trump has upped the tariffs to 50%. Trump's been trying to call him, and Modi's saying, I'm not returning your phone calls at all.

0

401.318 - 430.613 Ben Meiselas

This was also reported in a Japan-based news magazine, quoting Indian diplomatic experts as saying, Trump recently attempted multiple times to call Modi in search of a compromise. Because this is embarrassing to Trump right now. He said India was going to be the first deal. Then Trump said, I'm going to huff and unpuff and 50% tariffs. Then let's do a deal where India comes up with some fake investment number in the United States. And we'll say we did this grand old deal together. And Modi's like, F you.

0

430.613 - 458.626 Ben Meiselas

You've tried to humiliate us. You've really caused massive harm in India. You told Apple not to build plants in India. Screw you. I'm not picking up your phone. India's Prime Minister Modi is refusing to take Donald Trump's phone calls and just doesn't want to have it. Now, this is at the same time that India's Prime Minister Modi, this happens next week, will be going to China, meeting with Xi Jinping and 20 other world

458.626 - 478.032 Ben Meiselas

world leaders at a regional security forum in China. And this is going to be a powerful showing of China's rising strength, global south solidarity, and a big middle finger to Donald Trump. But Trump's too stupid to see it coming. Donald Trump will roll out the carpet for Vladimir Putin.

478.032 - 499.058 Ben Meiselas

alienate our allies. Donald Trump will say the BRICS block is not strong. They're all meeting at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit next week and Modi wants to be photographed next to Xi Jinping because India is now all in on China, not the United States. Let me bring out some additional receipts for you.

499.058 - 527.088 Ben Meiselas

Tässä oli viimeisen puheenjohtajan puheenjohtaja, kun pääministeri Modi puhutti parliamenttiaan. Hän sanoi, että tässä on se, mitä itse asiassa tapahtui, kun India oli vallassa Pakistanin kanssa. Hän sanoi, että JD Vance yritti puhua minua silloin, ja minä olin tyytyväinen vallan käsittämiseen. Sanoin, että pysy hyvältä, JD, minä olen käsittämällä jotain. JD Vance puhui ja sanoi, että haluan vain tietää sinulle, että Pakistan vaatii sinua. Modi sanoi, että jos he vaatisivat minua, me vaatisimme heitä huonommin. Täältä soittaa tämä klippi.

527.088 - 543.693 Narendra Modi

During that particular time there was a significant development. On the night of the 9th, specifically the evening of the 9th day of the month, the Vice President of America, a prominent figure in the United States government, was present.

Chapter 5: What does Modi's behavior signify about India-US relations?

564.635 - 590.285 Narendra Modi

Joten Amerikan puheenjohtaja, erittäin tärkeä ja suurimmilta näkökulmilla, kertoi minulle, että Pakistan oli aina aloittamassa suurella, tärkeällä ja mahdollisesti haasteellisella sääntelyllä. Se oli juuri se, mitä hän kertoi minulle. Minun vastaukseni oli, että niitä ihmisiä, jotka eivät todellisesti ymmärrä tilanteen rauhallisuutta, eivät ymmärrä, kuinka paljon kertomuksia on tuotettu.

0

594.419 - 610.552 Narendra Modi

Minun lopullisen vastaukseni oli, että jos Pakistanin valtio on niin agressiivisia ja haastavia ajatuksia, niin se toivottavasti vaatii heitä todella, todella tärkeästi. Tämä on juuri se, mitä olin selkeästi sanonut esteettömän puheenjohtajan Yhdysvalloissa.

0

614.652 - 632.337 Narendra Modi

If Pakistan were to launch an attack, we would respond with an even more substantial and overwhelming attack. That was indeed my direct and unequivocal answer. And furthermore, I had one more crucial sentence to convey. I explicitly stated we will answer bullets with shells.

0

633.907 - 660.451 Narendra Modi

This significant event transpired on the night of the 9th, and by the culmination of that very night, extending into the early hours of the morning of the 10th, we had achieved a comprehensive and overwhelming devastation of Pakistan's formidable military strength, effectively neutralizing a substantial portion of their armed forces and their capacity to wage war. And that was indeed our immediate response. That was truly our unwavering spirit.

661.058 - 688.177 Ben Meiselas

So that was Modi speaking before the parliament. All right, as frequent viewers of the Midas Touch Network know, I'm a huge fan of our partners at Chapter, who help seniors select the best Medicare plans for their specific situation. They've helped many of our viewers of this channel save money and get better medical care. One regular viewer named Kevin in Florida was struggling with high out-of-pocket costs due to his pre-existing conditions.

688.177 - 708.038 Ben Meiselas

Chapter helped him enroll in a plan that saves him, get this, $2,100 a year. They saved another Midas Touch fan, Stephen, hundreds a month by finding a better plan that covered his dialysis treatment. And the best part, it's totally free. You just give them a call at 82Medicare.com.

708.038 - 732.659 Ben Meiselas

732.659 - 757.702 Ben Meiselas

and share your experience in the comments below. That's 82Medicare. And you can see what all our fans are raving about. It's chapter 82Medicare. Here's another clip right here of Modi recently saying that after the G7, when Donald Trump fled, remember when Donald Trump left the G7 and then ran back to Washington DC and then

757.702 - 787.553 Ben Meiselas

spoke with Putin right away, because Putin said he wanted to mediate what was happening in Iran, and actually it seems like Putin didn't mediate, because all of the benefits after Trump struck Iran seems to inure to the benefit of Iran and Russia more than anybody, and China, because sanctions removed from Iran, Iran still has enriched uranium, the nuclear facilities still exist, Iran gives more Shahed drones to Russia, Russia uses those to kill innocent Ukrainians,

Chapter 6: How is Modi positioning India in relation to China?

817.405 - 845.738 Narendra Modi

My dear friends, it was just a mere two days ago that I had the distinct opportunity and privilege to be present in Canada, attending the very important and highly anticipated G7 Summit. During my time there, I received a significant communication. None other than the esteemed President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, personally placed a call to me. He said, since you are already in Canada, why don't you come to Washington on your way back?

0

847.021 - 871.591 Narendra Modi

Meillä on syötä yhdessä ja puhutaan. Hän laittoi sopimuksen erittäin kiinnostavasti. Minulla oli erityinen ilo sanoa USA-presidentille, että kiitos, että olit sopimuksesi. Minulle on erittäin tärkeää käydä maan Mahaprabhuun, jossa on suuri uskonnollinen merkitys.

0

871.591 - 893.545 Narendra Modi

Ja se on juuri siksi, miksi minä poliittisesti, mutta vahvasti vastasin hänen kärsivänsä. Tämä oli sinun suuri ja iloinen rakkaus, se syvyys, jota olet käsitellyt maha-Prabhuun, joka todellisesti käsitteli minua elämääni ja tuli minua ilmaisuudessaan tälle rauhalliselle ja rauhalliselle maalle.

895.317 - 915.989 Ben Meiselas

Now let me show you the side by side right here of India's foreign minister and Donald Trump. Here's Donald Trump. This was him taking credit back on May 30th, 2025 for stopping the war between India and Pakistan. Here's the foreign secretary of India, Vikram Siri. Here's what happened here. Play this clip.

0

916.04 - 941.707 Vikram Siri

Luulen, että asia, jota olen yllättänyt, on se, että teemme Indiassa ja Pakistanissa. Olemme voineet pyrkiä lopputuloksen kautta lopputuloksen kautta lopputuloksella. Yleensä ne tekevät lopputuloksen kautta. Me teemme lopputuloksen kautta. Olen erittäin yllättänyt siitä. Prime minister Modi selvästi sanoi presidentti Trumpille, että tämän koko jakson aikana

941.707 - 968.453 Unknown

There was never any discussion at any level about an India-US trade deal or US mediation between India and Pakistan. The discussion to halt military action occurred directly between India and Pakistan through existing channels between both armies and was made at Pakistan's request. Prime Minister Modi

968.453 - 1002.322 Unknown

Suomalaiset sanoivat, että India ei ole edes ottanut mediaatiota, eikä se toimi, eikä koskaan. There is complete political unanimity on this subject in India. President Trump understood the details explained by the Prime Minister and expressed support for India's fight against terrorism. Prime Minister Modi also said that India now sees terrorism not as a proxy war,

1002.322 - 1018.859 Ben Meiselas

But as a war. And by the way, here is what happened yesterday in that bizarre four-hour cabinet meeting. Here's what Donald Trump said. He's like, and I dangled that trade in front of India. I was like, you want this American money, India?

1018.859 - 1047.918 Ben Meiselas

You want this, and India's like, please, please, Donald. We want that American money, Donald. You want me to give you that money? Then you better stop your war, India. Please, Donald, anything you say, Donald. We love America. I mean, that's how Donald Trump's sick mind thinks about a powerful, sovereign nation like India. I mean, Donald Trump's a sicko. You have to understand that Donald Trump's like a racist dude also. So his view of India and Indian people, just think about...

Chapter 7: What are the broader impacts of the US-India relationship on global politics?

1168.372 - 1201.21 Ben Meiselas

It's also emblematic of what's happening around the world as well. With Japan, with South Korea, with our European allies, with Brazil, with South Africa, with African nations in general. This is what's happening in general. The United States is shrinking, shrinking, shrinking in power. Tämä on se, mitä Jake Sullivan sanoi minulle, suomalaisen turvallisuuden edustajan, soittaa tämän videon.

0

1201.582 - 1221.646 Ben Meiselas

I gotta ask you, what do you think about what's going on with India? Donald Trump said that the first deal that he was going to make was with India. I have best friends with Modi. And then he just started taking credit for resolving the India-Pakistan war, which is a very big sensitive topic for India. And you did not do that. Stop taking credit. He does that every day in that like...

0

1221.646 - 1247.903 Ben Meiselas

Se vaikuttaa kaikkeen siellä ja se heikottaa heitä. Se ei ole totta. Donald Trump otti perheensä bitcoinia pakistanilaisesta bitcoin-järjestelmästä, ja he tuovat pakistanilaisen järjestelmän sinne, ja India sanoo, että mitä sinä teet? Sitten muun muassa sinulla on Apple rakentamassa uusia kaveria, koska Tim Cook tuli tuomaan vihreästi, ja hän rakentaa kaveria. Mitä sinä teet siitä, mitä tapahtuu siellä?

0

1248.072 - 1277.418 Unknown

I think this is one of the more underreported stories in Trump's foreign policy, and I'm really glad that you raised it. On a bipartisan basis, going back decades, the United States has worked to build its relationship with India, the world's largest democracy, a country that we should be aligned with on technology and talent and economics and so many other issues, and aligned with in dealing with this strategic threat from China. And we had come a long way on that, and now

0

1277.418 - 1286.075 Unknown

In no small part I think because of Pakistan's willingness to do business deals with the Trump family.

1287.087 - 1315.977 Unknown

Trump has thrown the India relationship over the side. That is a huge strategic harm in its own right, because a strong US-India relationship serves our interests. But imagine every other country in the world. You're Germany, you're Japan, you're Canada. You look at that and you say, that could be us tomorrow. And that only reinforces your view that you've got to hedge against the United States. And having all of our friends and countries around the world decide, they just can't rely on the US in any way, shape or form.

1316.281 - 1338.32 Unknown

That is not in the interest of the American people long term. Our words should be our bond. We should be good for what we say. Our friends should be able to rely on us. And that has always been our strength. And what's happening with India right now has huge direct impacts, but it also has this reverberating impact across all of our relationships and partnerships in the world.

1339.028 - 1361.894 Ben Meiselas

Tässä se on, yhdistämme tämän kaikki yhdessä, mutta mielestäni se on se, mitä täytyy tapahtua. Oikeastaan, prime ministeri Modi huomioi Trumpia. Täytyy pysyä lopettamaan tämän tyyppiä. Olet vain vanhempi, olet vanhempi, ja kertoisi tämän tyyppiä lopettamaan tämän tyyppiä. Minä en halua puhua sinulle. Laita Donaldta Trumpia pysyä hänen omaa vaikutuksiaan.
