🚨 August 12, 2025| Putin/Trump; BLS; Intel; Fuel-Econ; Bernie Sanders; Antisemitism | Yaron Brook Show
Putin’s power play, Trump’s pivot, Bernie’s blunders, and the bureaucratic rot in America’s stats machine.
From the BLS’s cooked numbers to Intel’s future, from fuel-economy myths to the latest wave of antisemitism—Yaron takes the gloves off. Plus: why New Rochelle beats the housing crisis, why the EU fears a victorious Russia, and how America’s political class keeps selling out to power.

Live Questions:
1:16:36 It seemed that Trump was leaning away from Putin a few weeks ago. What changed? Putin must have played a card under the table no?
1:20:39 Let’s assume Ukraine surrenders: what do you thinking are Russia’s next plans? How do you think the EU reacts?
1:28:38 Can Ukraine sustain the battle and win with just European support?
1:29:13 What would Ukraine winning, look like in reality?
1:36:04 Do you think Bush Jr and Cheney purposefully lied about WMDs in Iraq? Or was it an intelligence failure?
1:37:18 What are your thoughts on the UK’s online safety act?
1:38:50 If we fail to convince someone of Objectivism, is it their problem or our problem?
1:39:22 Is Trumps plan to allow for more deregulation so there are more productive companies he can shake down and extort?
1:40:10 Will the new leftist strategy no longer be Woke, but class consciousness like Mamdani?
1:41:11 Instead of Sov wealth fund, could a regular corporation with lots of individual investors get into infrastructure and utilities and give dividends?
