EP#330 | DSD | Greg Stoker Returns: ICE Raids, Palantir Surveillance & The Dirty Left
📄 Episode Overview
In Episode #330, Ray welcomes back Greg Stoker, dubbed "The Dirty Leftist Political Ambassador," for one of the most hard-hitting episodes yet. Together, they dissect the ICE raids in Los Angeles, the resurgence of predictive surveillance via Palantir, and how the Palestinian liberation movement is being hijacked into political theater. Greg calls out the fake beef between Trump and Newsom, explains why leftists aren’t Democrats, and throws fire on controlled opposition like Laura Loomer and Charlie Kirk. If you want to understand how authoritarianism spreads behind a patriotic façade, this is the episode.
🧬 Key Takeaways
🌪️ ICE Raids in LA: Political Theater
Greg explains why LA was targeted: it’s the symbolic capital of the Hispanic migrant population. Raids there send shockwaves nationally and stoke MAGA's war on sanctuary cities.
🛡️ Palantir: Surveillance on Steroids
The predictive policing AI system developed for war zones is now being used on U.S. citizens. Palantir is the state’s force multiplier, built on IDF and Gaza tactics.
🤟 Trump vs. Newsom? Not Really.
Greg and Ray break down why the supposed feud between Trump and Newsom is a farce. They run in the same elite circles and serve the same masters.
🚫 Leftist ≠ Democrat
Greg outlines why the modern Democratic Party serves to absorb, pacify, and block real progressive change—making them more dangerous to leftist politics than Republicans.
🥊 From Palestine to ICE: The Imperial Boomerang
Tactics used on Palestinians are now being deployed on U.S. citizens. Surveillance tech, police training, and brutality migrate from Gaza to American cities.
🤦 Leftist Role Models? Abby Martin, Not TYT
Praise for the Empire Files and Abby Martin. Harsh critiques for The Young Turks, who Greg sees as grifters chasing views and mainstream approval.
