At the World Government Summit in Dubai, Tucker Carlson criticized the U.S. government for vetoing a ceasefire in Gaza and abetting war in Ukraine.

The hosts declare that the United States has become a "banana republic" where institutional legitimacy has collapsed.

The segment concludes with a promotion for Keiser's "F Elon" event at the Spider House in Austin.
