Cenk UygurHOST
All the establishment, corporate donor loving, Israel loving, anti-American candidates are losing, and I love it, and I'm here for it.
Cenk UygurHOST
And then, amazing, one of the world's largest scientists, head of the World Jewish Congress, turning on Netanyahu, but also beginning to turn on Israel.
Cenk UygurHOST
No.
Cenk UygurHOST
No, Ana, he said in that article that he's abandoning Israel.

That's not gonna change Cenk, why do you think that would change?
Cenk UygurHOST
Yeah, so that story is mega important and we'll do it for you guys tomorrow.
Cenk UygurHOST
But for now, just this portion of the conversation, Look, he's the head of the World Jewish Congress.
Cenk UygurHOST
He's one of the biggest Zionists on planet Earth.
Jack MaxeyHOST
Ronald Lauder is the scion of the Estee Lauder family, a very fine gentleman.
Jack MaxeyHOST
I think traditionally has been a very strong Zionist, has given lots of money to Israel, has been the president of the World Jewish Congress.
Jack MaxeyHOST
This is somebody who's tied into the dream that everybody is witnessing collapse right now in Israel, largely because of the depravity of people like Smotrich, Ben-Gavir, and Bibi Netanyahu.
Jack MaxeyHOST
In the article, or in the op-ed, Mr. Lauder, who clearly, you can tell it hurts to write the words that he's writing, says he doesn't know if he'll ever even visit Israel again.
Sam SteinHOST
I should note that.
Sam SteinHOST
The other organization is called the World Jewish Congress.
Sam SteinHOST
That looked more promising at first.
Sam SteinHOST
A mid-August meeting with the World Jewish Congress vice president went well enough that Terrell fired off 20-plus late-night texts to interns laying out a grant plan.
Sam SteinHOST
These are college kids, and he's just like...
Sam SteinHOST
He
Will SommerGUEST
And then he says, OK, if a cabinet secretary can't appear, we need a high level sub cabinet member.
Sam SteinHOST
All right.
Rex JonesHOST
If you don't do this for us, do it for us.
Rex JonesHOST
I thought it was you, the public servant, working for us, the American people, to do what we told you to do, right? Why should we put you in office if you're going to be a historically inaccurate Congress? Two years ago, we gave him three branches of government.
Rex JonesHOST
Now, if you look at certain cases, I'll be voting for Paxton 100 percent here in my home state of Texas, because Tallarico, if he wins, literally has the Obama mandate.
Rex JonesHOST
Let me break this down for you.
12 MINS LATER
Rex JonesHOST
Right.
Rex JonesHOST
And this is just how things are.

Brandon WeichertHOST
This guy gave money.
Brandon WeichertHOST
He was the former pre or he was, he is now the president of the world Jewish Congress.
Brandon WeichertHOST
Um, uh, He started turning.
Brandon WeichertHOST
He started turning on Netanyahu, saying that he's a threat to the Israeli democracy.
Zach FoustHOST
So he's a multi-time billionaire.
Zach FoustHOST
He is the, and this is just a side fact, you don't have to say, oh my God! He is the president of the World Jewish Congress.
Zach FoustHOST
He is also an individual that has a lot to do with Israeli politics and American politics.
Zach FoustHOST
Go figure.
7 MINS LATER
Zach FoustHOST
They're somewhere in this document.
Zach FoustHOST
But we want to focus on Ron Lauder today.
Zach FoustHOST
Now, just to give a quick summarization, again, he's the president of the World Jewish Congress.
Zach FoustHOST
He is the sole heir to the Estee Lauder cosmetics fortune worth anywhere in around $40 billion.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
The equation between Jewishness and humanity, which is the height of ethnocentrism, is the real meaning of Judaism's claim to embody humanism.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
Though Israelis are the most separatist people in the world, according to Nahum Goldman, former president of the World Jewish Organization and founder of the World Jewish Congress, he adds, the Israelis have the great weakness of thinking that the whole world revolves around them.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
So there is not necessarily a contradiction in their minds between universalist discourse and the practice of tribalism.
Pete QuiñonesHOST
If the Jew is the essence of humanity, what is good for the Jews is good for humanity on principle.

Vanessa BergGUEST
This debate has become particularly relevant following recent comments by two prominent American Jews, whom I greatly respect, Ronald Lauder and Bill Ackman.
Vanessa BergGUEST
Lauder, the president of the World Jewish Congress, recently warned that if Netanyahu is re-elected, Israel stands to lose badly.
Vanessa BergGUEST
He went further, declaring that if the parties of Ben-Gavir and Smotrich participate in the next government, Israel is doomed.
Vanessa BergGUEST
Doomed? Really? Israel has survived wars, invasions, terrorism, economic crises, political upheaval, and decades of international hostility.
Jorge BesadaGUEST
And it's not just a Jew.
Jorge BesadaGUEST
It is the son-in-law of Mr. Lahrer, the guy who runs the World Jewish Congress.
Jorge BesadaGUEST
It's his son-in-law who's the head of the Federal Reserve right now.
Cory HolbrookGUEST
I'm surprised he said that.
