WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:06.940
Think of it, we've spent $8 trillion in the Middle East and we're not fixing our roads

00:06.940 --> 00:07.820
in this country.

00:08.000 --> 00:08.540
How stupid.

00:08.880 --> 00:09.700
How stupid is it?

00:09.940 --> 00:15.720
And we're not fixing our highways, our tunnels, our bridges, our hospitals even, our schools

00:15.720 --> 00:16.200
even.

00:17.660 --> 00:17.960
It's crazy.

00:18.140 --> 00:19.500
That's Donald Trump in 2020.

00:20.120 --> 00:24.260
I can show you that basically every year of his political career, staying the same

00:24.260 --> 00:26.020
thing over and over and over again.

00:26.720 --> 00:30.560
These endless wars in the Middle East are not to our benefit and he would obviously

00:30.560 --> 00:34.880
stop them and certainly not start one, but start one.

00:34.980 --> 00:35.180
He did.

00:35.980 --> 00:43.060
Israel and the United States chose voluntarily to start a war of aggression irrefutably

00:43.060 --> 00:43.580
tonight.

00:43.860 --> 00:46.720
I am recording at about 6 a.m.

00:47.480 --> 00:51.960
And on Saturday morning and the bombs are currently dropping.

00:52.600 --> 00:53.580
Oh, we know.

00:53.740 --> 00:55.120
I mean, no, keep in mind.

00:55.120 --> 00:57.100
A lot of this is going to be preliminary reports.

00:57.460 --> 00:59.280
So I'm sure a bunch of this is going to change.

00:59.500 --> 01:04.620
But as of right now, there's been hours long bombing campaign in Iran.

01:04.960 --> 01:06.140
I'll show you some of that footage.

01:16.960 --> 01:28.100
And the big difference between this strike and the prior one last summer, which

01:28.100 --> 01:32.340
I was called a panic in for saying, Hey, probably not a great idea.

01:32.340 --> 01:34.280
And certainly this is not the end of it.

01:34.360 --> 01:36.300
And we were all told, oh, look at you.

01:36.360 --> 01:39.420
You always fear mongering, thinking the World War three is going to happen.

01:39.600 --> 01:40.260
Blah, blah, blah.

01:40.420 --> 01:40.620
Yeah.

01:40.720 --> 01:42.480
Well, the Iranians aren't playing around this time.

01:42.600 --> 01:47.520
As of right now, there are reports of return fire, ballistic missiles

01:47.520 --> 01:52.240
being fired by Iran against American bases in Bahrain, which I'll show

01:52.240 --> 01:57.480
you footage of as well as the UAE, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Syria,

01:57.900 --> 01:59.520
potentially, we're not sure about that one.

02:00.580 --> 02:05.280
The initial reports from the Bahrain strike, which looked like it was a direct hit

02:05.860 --> 02:07.740
looked as if there was going to be casualties.

02:08.320 --> 02:11.440
The Department of War is now coming out and saying that there weren't casualties.

02:11.700 --> 02:12.900
So God willing, there weren't.

02:13.300 --> 02:16.060
The reason I say that other than the fact that I don't want any more

02:16.060 --> 02:20.260
people to die, much less Americans to die is because if Americans do die

02:20.260 --> 02:25.340
in response, which allegedly Iran's intention is to try and kill

02:25.340 --> 02:29.180
upwards or more than 500 American troops.

02:29.580 --> 02:33.940
And while obviously that alone would be a tragedy, the bigger concern

02:33.940 --> 02:38.300
even above that, which is already a big one, would be that if that happens,

02:38.300 --> 02:42.500
then ground invasion becomes very likely in my view.

02:42.940 --> 02:46.260
I think that at that point, especially if if these decapitation

02:46.260 --> 02:49.020
strikes don't work, which is what they're trying to do.

02:49.120 --> 02:52.800
There was reports, rumors, really, I don't know if it's accurate

02:52.800 --> 02:57.060
that the president of Iran has already been assassinated by some of these strikes.

02:57.440 --> 03:00.040
I kind of doubt that, but we'll see.

03:00.260 --> 03:06.820
But the point being that if the bombing campaign does not get the regime to fall,

03:07.080 --> 03:08.720
then what other option is there?

03:09.280 --> 03:13.000
I mean, either you walk away, dust off your hands and say,

03:13.240 --> 03:17.940
Mission accomplished, some George Bush shit, or do they ramp up?

03:18.660 --> 03:23.020
Do they actually bring in a ground invasion into Iran?

03:23.220 --> 03:26.640
And for those that don't know, Iran is enormous.

03:27.340 --> 03:30.040
Iran is, you know, Iraq and Afghanistan.

03:30.500 --> 03:31.680
Iraq's pretty big country.

03:32.240 --> 03:33.520
Iraq and Afghanistan combined.

03:34.200 --> 03:38.240
Iran is at least two times bigger than those combined.

03:38.720 --> 03:40.840
It is the immense task.

03:41.020 --> 03:43.980
If you think you're going to ground invade, not to mention the mountainous terrain,

03:44.220 --> 03:47.140
it's going to be a catastrophe if it goes that route.

03:47.140 --> 03:52.380
But the point is that if 500 American troops or even 100 American troops

03:52.380 --> 03:56.140
are killed in response over the next days and weeks, which, by the way,

03:56.140 --> 03:59.400
they're saying that this bombing campaign from Israel and the U.S.

03:59.420 --> 04:01.520
against Iran could last weeks.

04:01.820 --> 04:03.020
That's what they're saying already.

04:03.340 --> 04:06.100
Well, if it does indeed last weeks, and that means that

04:06.100 --> 04:09.520
and the Iranian regime does not fall within the Iranian regime,

04:09.520 --> 04:12.560
is going to continue to bomb our bases throughout the Middle East,

04:12.600 --> 04:17.020
which means that we're talking about significant American troop casualty.

04:17.840 --> 04:18.320
Significant.

04:18.760 --> 04:22.640
And if that happens, well, then Trump really is going to have his hands tied

04:22.640 --> 04:24.980
because at that point you can't just walk away.

04:25.160 --> 04:27.360
And that is probably the game plan.

04:27.560 --> 04:30.620
And by game plan, I mean from the Israeli side, that's what they want.

04:30.720 --> 04:34.040
That's what they've been angling for my entire adult life.

04:34.420 --> 04:39.060
They want a full on ground invasion of American troops into Iran.

04:39.260 --> 04:41.320
And God willing, that's not what happens.

04:41.380 --> 04:42.920
But let's check out this footage from Bahrain.

04:44.940 --> 04:47.200
Oh, shit.

04:47.260 --> 04:58.200
Oh, fuck. Oh, shit.

04:58.360 --> 04:59.760
Oh, shit. Oh, fuck.

05:03.420 --> 05:04.460
Oh, my God.

05:05.780 --> 05:06.220
Oh,

05:07.740 --> 05:09.300
dude, fuck me.

05:10.180 --> 05:11.880
A fucking missile actually got through.

05:12.200 --> 05:12.820
Oh, there's more.

05:13.260 --> 05:14.360
I've got to get the fuck out of here.

05:14.400 --> 05:17.060
Now, as I said, there's mixed reporting as to whether or not

05:17.060 --> 05:20.240
there was American casualties or fatalities in those strikes.

05:20.240 --> 05:24.020
But let's be honest, based off of the visual, it looks like it was a direct strike.

05:24.500 --> 05:28.480
So the question is, and this is a major fingers crossed, just hoping a prayer.

05:29.120 --> 05:34.080
But last time, the last time this happened, there was, in my opinion,

05:35.140 --> 05:37.760
backchanneling and communications between the U.S.

05:37.840 --> 05:42.740
DoD or DoW, the Department of War now and the Iranians.

05:42.940 --> 05:46.180
And they essentially ended up bombing a bunch of empty buildings

05:46.180 --> 05:47.820
in Iraq and other places.

05:47.820 --> 05:50.700
And really, I don't think that there was actually any casualties

05:51.260 --> 05:53.960
in that war, the 12 day wars, they call it.

05:54.280 --> 05:57.620
So let's hope that that's what that was that we just witnessed.

05:57.920 --> 05:58.480
I don't know.

05:58.760 --> 06:03.680
But I got to say, if there are any American casualties, this is all on Trump.

06:04.320 --> 06:08.960
This is as much of a war of choice as I think I've seen in my lifetime.

06:09.120 --> 06:11.520
And we've had a lot of wars of choice, in my opinion.

06:11.600 --> 06:13.040
But this is egregious.

06:13.380 --> 06:15.420
We have no reason to be involved in this.

06:15.420 --> 06:19.500
The Iranians, this is the really galling part about this.

06:19.660 --> 06:23.800
Last summer, before we took out Fordo and their other nuclear sites,

06:24.420 --> 06:26.740
there was negotiations that were happening

06:27.300 --> 06:29.860
and there was allegedly progress that was being made.

06:30.020 --> 06:33.100
And that there was real hope and optimism that perhaps this was

06:33.100 --> 06:35.340
unnecessary, that we weren't going to go to war against them.

06:35.960 --> 06:38.100
This is the exact same circumstances again.

06:38.580 --> 06:43.060
So in the middle of the negotiations last time, there was a sneak attack.

06:43.060 --> 06:46.820
Decapitation strikes launched by Israel with US support.

06:47.020 --> 06:50.340
And then we brought in the B-52s and we took out the nuclear sites.

06:50.860 --> 06:53.900
This is again, the exact same circumstances.

06:54.260 --> 06:57.900
This time, even more egregious, they brought in third party negotiators.

06:58.040 --> 07:01.860
Apparently it was Oman that came out and reported just a few hours

07:01.860 --> 07:05.720
prior to these bombs being dropped that essentially the Iranians

07:05.720 --> 07:06.540
had agreed to everything.

07:07.020 --> 07:11.100
They were like, we're going to give up our nuclear enrichment and blah, blah, blah.

07:11.100 --> 07:15.340
Like almost everything you could ask for, they were going to give up all of it

07:15.340 --> 07:17.480
and still wasn't enough.

07:17.800 --> 07:22.720
And I think if you're not just being totally naive, the obvious truth here

07:22.720 --> 07:25.360
is that there was no option for peace here.

07:25.600 --> 07:30.360
That if you look at the trend lined when it comes to US support

07:30.360 --> 07:34.880
in or excuse me, American support as an UNI support for Israel,

07:35.200 --> 07:39.540
the numbers are such a catastrophe after the two and a half year

07:39.540 --> 07:43.960
long war in Palestine that it's like or Gaza have you want to frame it?

07:44.420 --> 07:46.240
That it's just it's hopeless.

07:46.720 --> 07:50.780
Like they have a plan, in my opinion, the Greater Israel Project

07:50.780 --> 07:55.420
to take over huge swaths of Iraq and Iran and Lebanon and Yemen

07:55.420 --> 07:57.720
and all these all these different countries and obviously Gaza.

07:58.280 --> 08:01.000
And this is their last chance.

08:01.460 --> 08:05.900
They have by whatever mechanism they have Trump under control.

08:05.900 --> 08:11.600
And, you know, my hypothesis has been that it's probably not the Epstein files.

08:11.840 --> 08:15.880
But I got to say the timing on all this, it really makes you wonder.

08:16.360 --> 08:20.260
It does. It makes me wonder, like, what do they have this guy on tape doing?

08:21.240 --> 08:24.320
Because the alternative in some ways is even worse.

08:24.580 --> 08:27.260
Like it means that he's been a fraud the entire time.

08:27.740 --> 08:29.720
Like that's a distinct possibility.

08:30.860 --> 08:35.040
Or is he just so depraved that Trump would do this for financial

08:35.900 --> 08:38.680
benefit? Like, I find that hard to believe.

08:39.460 --> 08:43.140
You're so wealthy already and already the richest, most powerful person in the

08:43.140 --> 08:45.620
world or one of them and you're going to do this for money.

08:45.780 --> 08:48.780
So it's like, all right, either you were a fraud from the jump

08:48.780 --> 08:52.080
and you're for real evil or you're being blackmailed.

08:52.080 --> 08:55.320
And if you look at the cover up and then you look at the fact

08:55.320 --> 08:58.160
that Trump hasn't fired any of the people who participated in the cover

08:58.160 --> 09:00.880
up because a lot of Trump supporters will say, well, you know,

09:00.900 --> 09:01.860
why are you mad at Trump?

09:01.860 --> 09:07.180
It's Bondi and Kash Patel and Tim Boncino or it's like, well,

09:07.220 --> 09:10.280
because he's their boss and he's not firing any of them.

09:10.720 --> 09:13.520
And that or Howard Lutnik, for that matter, who's caught red-handed,

09:13.860 --> 09:16.480
obviously lying egregiously about his relationship with Epstein.

09:16.700 --> 09:20.900
And you have to wonder, well, maybe he's not firing them

09:20.900 --> 09:24.520
because he's the one actually instructing them, all of his underlings,

09:24.740 --> 09:30.760
to bury this investigation, to make sure that whatever he's guilty

09:30.760 --> 09:32.960
of in it, that it goes away.

09:33.600 --> 09:37.540
And the reason I say that is because the last time, like the very first

09:38.080 --> 09:42.120
big push for Epstein disclosures, if you recall, was last summer,

09:42.680 --> 09:47.200
just before he took the the bombing option when it came to the nuclear

09:47.200 --> 09:48.520
facilities inside of Iran.

09:48.900 --> 09:53.320
And at the time I started to wonder to myself, well, maybe that's the leverage.

09:53.800 --> 09:57.900
Maybe maybe they're basically dangling it, saying, look,

09:58.560 --> 10:02.800
either this this investigation goes away or we release it.

10:03.100 --> 10:05.840
And if we release it, well, then your political career is over

10:05.840 --> 10:07.200
and maybe you go to prison, who knows.

10:07.260 --> 10:11.460
But then in this second go around, you've got a very similar dynamic

10:11.460 --> 10:15.980
where the there's obviously huge public anger over the coverup

10:15.980 --> 10:17.320
of the Epstein investigation.

10:17.960 --> 10:21.920
And again, maybe Netanyahu has come to town for the seventh time

10:21.920 --> 10:24.640
over the past over his first year in office.

10:25.200 --> 10:28.740
And now we're bombing them again in a sneak attack again.

10:28.880 --> 10:32.100
And as the capitation strike again and all of that,

10:32.720 --> 10:38.520
despite the fact that 75 percent, at least of Americans,

10:38.740 --> 10:44.140
do not support this war 75 is actually as high as like 82 percent.

10:44.340 --> 10:47.560
But anyways, just to be conservative, I think it was 74 to 82 percent

10:47.560 --> 10:50.960
of Americans do not want to go to war against Iran.

10:51.520 --> 10:54.280
That's about as unanimous as you'll ever get Americans

10:54.280 --> 10:57.340
on basically any topic that's at least three and four,

10:57.500 --> 10:59.380
probably more like four and five Americans.

10:59.620 --> 11:03.420
So you've got one in five, basically the Fox News audience.

11:04.000 --> 11:04.640
That's it.

11:04.760 --> 11:08.060
And probably only like 60 percent of Fox News's audience

11:08.060 --> 11:09.780
really wants this war, either.

11:10.060 --> 11:12.100
But does it matter that it's totally

11:13.000 --> 11:14.420
unpopular with the American people?

11:14.660 --> 11:15.220
It doesn't.

11:15.700 --> 11:18.840
It does not matter that we don't want this.

11:19.320 --> 11:22.980
And I think that's that's the part that is probably the hardest

11:22.980 --> 11:26.820
to deal with, is that, you know, throughout my life, as you guys know,

11:27.120 --> 11:30.900
I'm second gen libertarian, so I've been anti-war my entire adult life.

11:31.080 --> 11:32.300
But with George Bush Jr.

11:32.480 --> 11:35.740
I wasn't exactly surprised that we ended up in wars with Obama.

11:35.960 --> 11:38.520
I wasn't really surprised because I knew he was a conman from the jump

11:38.520 --> 11:41.060
when it came to Trump round one.

11:41.740 --> 11:43.780
He kind of he kind of did what he promised.

11:43.920 --> 11:45.260
He didn't start any new wars.

11:45.360 --> 11:49.980
So you'd have to assume if there was one thing he wanted for his legacy

11:49.980 --> 11:54.240
was to be like, I am the least warmongering of all of the warmongering

11:54.240 --> 11:57.220
presidents of your lifetime, because that was kind of his claim to fame.

11:57.660 --> 11:59.020
Obviously, Biden's a piece of shit.

11:59.180 --> 12:01.920
Had no expectations for him to get us out of any wars.

12:02.380 --> 12:05.880
But then Trump round two comes around and this and I don't want to

12:05.880 --> 12:08.800
I don't want to overstate it because this could end up, you know,

12:09.140 --> 12:11.360
calming down in a couple of days and God willing it will.

12:11.680 --> 12:13.400
But I just want to be very clear.

12:14.020 --> 12:19.400
This has the potential to be worse than the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars combined.

12:19.980 --> 12:23.800
This has the potential to be worse than any war in our lifetime.

12:24.300 --> 12:26.500
Iran is not a small player.

12:26.800 --> 12:31.080
They have a serious military and they have a serious missile system.

12:31.520 --> 12:33.780
They also have a population of 90 million people.

12:34.340 --> 12:38.480
So if they choose to fight, it's a serious, serious fucking war.

12:39.000 --> 12:43.040
And you also have to understand that they are big time allies,

12:43.180 --> 12:46.040
or at least historically, they have been with, you know,

12:46.120 --> 12:48.300
the axis of evil, Russia, China, etc.

12:48.300 --> 12:51.700
So if Russia or China gets involved,

12:51.920 --> 12:56.700
we're now talking about really not to like overstate it.

12:57.020 --> 12:59.600
Like I think that would be described as World War Three.

13:00.000 --> 13:01.760
Like it has the potential to get there.

13:01.860 --> 13:03.320
And I really prayed it.

13:03.340 --> 13:05.840
I literally pray to God that that does not happen.

13:05.940 --> 13:08.960
But even if it doesn't go that route,

13:08.960 --> 13:14.920
where there's actually direct involvement of Russia or China in defense of Iran.

13:15.370 --> 13:19.020
Well, you still have the potential of other wars breaking out.

13:19.260 --> 13:24.900
Well, the big boss US military is occupied, both in Venezuela.

13:25.640 --> 13:28.700
We've got action that I think is happening in Mexico still.

13:29.020 --> 13:34.220
And then now obviously Iran, who's to say that China doesn't move on Taiwan?

13:34.440 --> 13:37.800
If I was Chinese leadership and if I had intentions,

13:37.980 --> 13:40.640
if I had a game plan of going after Taiwan

13:40.640 --> 13:43.060
at some point over the next five or 10 years,

13:43.060 --> 13:46.320
because they're also facing a demographic collapse.

13:47.020 --> 13:50.840
Well, it's it's now or never, baby, like this is this is when you do it.

13:51.140 --> 13:56.060
So I would say, particularly if this ends up being a ground war,

13:56.200 --> 13:59.580
like if Trump actually is stupid enough to put fucking American boots

13:59.580 --> 14:03.200
on the ground in Iran, I'd be shocked if.

14:03.680 --> 14:06.920
And honestly, we'd be lucky if if China or Russia don't get involved

14:06.920 --> 14:07.820
in defense of Iran.

14:08.220 --> 14:11.300
But even if we get that lucky, I doubt we get lucky enough

14:11.300 --> 14:12.440
that they don't move on Taiwan.

14:12.940 --> 14:17.200
Well, if they move on Taiwan, there's no way there's absolutely no way

14:17.200 --> 14:23.380
that America can fight a war in Iran and China simultaneously.

14:24.000 --> 14:29.260
Like we will get our teeth kicked in in a way I don't even want to think about.

14:29.500 --> 14:32.180
But if China does move on Taiwan, if they have that intention,

14:32.720 --> 14:36.440
well, then we're dealing with I mean, we're right in the in the teeth,

14:36.540 --> 14:40.340
right in the heart of the AI race, which if you haven't been paying

14:40.340 --> 14:44.740
attention is like the race, there was like the Internet Race and Silicon Valley

14:44.740 --> 14:49.320
and all these other technological innovation races that we've been participating in.

14:49.580 --> 14:50.680
This is the big one.

14:50.920 --> 14:52.320
This may be the final one.

14:52.560 --> 14:56.760
Like this is as big as it gets whoever gets the AI, the AI,

14:57.020 --> 15:02.400
super genius, you know, artificial intelligence is probably going to

15:02.400 --> 15:03.460
control the next century.

15:03.720 --> 15:07.420
And I think that's the real that's the real concern that I have that

15:07.420 --> 15:12.180
while we are busy fighting and dying in a war in Iran on behalf of Israel.

15:12.600 --> 15:15.800
Does that mean that we then lose the AI race to China?

15:15.940 --> 15:19.160
Because China takes over the semiconductor production in Taiwan,

15:19.740 --> 15:22.860
semiconductor production, which is the most advanced semiconductors

15:22.860 --> 15:25.440
on the planet, which are vital for AI development.

15:25.900 --> 15:28.040
That is a immense risk.

15:28.160 --> 15:30.980
And for the life of me, I cannot understand

15:30.980 --> 15:35.920
why Donald Trump would take that risk unless he is being blackmailed.

15:36.280 --> 15:42.560
The United States military began major combat operations in Iran.

15:43.040 --> 15:46.820
Our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating

15:47.400 --> 15:50.780
imminent threats from the Iranian regime.

15:51.480 --> 15:54.380
A vicious group of terrible people.

15:54.480 --> 15:55.320
You got to pause it briefly.

15:55.720 --> 15:58.460
I mean, just the fact that he opens up this this announcement came

15:58.460 --> 16:00.340
at I think two or three a.m.

16:00.380 --> 16:02.360
this morning, right as the first bombs dropped.

16:02.620 --> 16:05.240
But just the fact that he opens it up saying that this is

16:05.240 --> 16:08.980
in defense of Americans is just such a such an unbelievable insult.

16:09.260 --> 16:12.220
And by the way, quick, really important addition

16:12.220 --> 16:14.200
that many of you probably aren't aware of.

16:14.540 --> 16:18.240
There was a push for a war powers resolution to try and force

16:18.240 --> 16:22.880
Congress's hand to actually vote for a declaration of war against Iran.

16:23.180 --> 16:26.620
And the Democrats dragged their feet and basically wouldn't support it

16:26.620 --> 16:28.980
because they're fucking just as much war mongers

16:28.980 --> 16:32.660
and just as much owned by APEC as the GOP side of the aisle.

16:32.660 --> 16:34.860
So that vote didn't happen.

16:35.140 --> 16:40.240
And as such, he was able to take these actions unilaterally tonight.

16:40.420 --> 16:43.120
It's menacing activities directly in danger.

16:43.300 --> 16:46.160
The United States, our troops, our bases overseas

16:46.770 --> 16:50.800
and our allies throughout the world for 47 years.

16:50.980 --> 16:54.640
The Iranian regime has chanted death to America and waged

16:55.170 --> 16:59.100
an unending campaign of bloodshed and mass murder

16:59.780 --> 17:02.060
targeting the United States, our troops

17:02.060 --> 17:04.860
and the innocent people in many, many countries.

17:05.980 --> 17:10.480
Among the regime's very first acts was to back a violent takeover

17:10.480 --> 17:15.480
of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, holding dozens of American hostages

17:15.480 --> 17:17.640
for four hundred and forty four days.

17:18.780 --> 17:23.980
In 1983, Iran's proxies carried out the Marine barracks bombing

17:23.980 --> 17:28.180
in Beirut that killed two hundred and forty one American military personnel.

17:28.820 --> 17:33.640
But which, by the way, after that, we had the Iran Consulate Scandal

17:33.640 --> 17:38.560
who were giving them the weapons in their war against Iraq,

17:38.640 --> 17:39.460
if I recall correctly.

17:40.100 --> 17:43.540
So, yeah, I guess we didn't take the Bahrain bombing very seriously.

17:43.820 --> 17:47.620
But now, 40 years later, we're going to get our vengeance for that,

17:47.740 --> 17:50.100
even though Ronald Reagan didn't care.

17:50.620 --> 17:55.040
We're probably involved with the attack on the USS Cole.

17:55.660 --> 17:56.460
Many died.

17:57.380 --> 18:02.380
Iranian forces killed and maimed hundreds of American service members in Iraq.

18:02.660 --> 18:06.380
The regime's proxies have continued to launch countless attacks

18:06.380 --> 18:10.940
against American forces stationed in the Middle East in recent years,

18:11.280 --> 18:15.760
as well as U.S. Naval and commercial vessels and international shipping.

18:16.060 --> 18:21.080
It's been mass terror and we're not going to put up with it any longer.

18:21.780 --> 18:25.460
I love that you could actually frame the Iranians as being the terrorists

18:25.460 --> 18:27.780
in that region from the American perspective.

18:28.120 --> 18:31.520
Sure, Iran has, you know, they do have terrorist proxies,

18:31.540 --> 18:36.680
but compared to American activity in the Middle East over the past 20 years,

18:37.420 --> 18:38.220
are you kidding me?

18:38.480 --> 18:41.820
In terms of death and destruction and terrorism in the Middle East,

18:41.960 --> 18:45.560
you're saying Iran has been a bigger perpetrator than the U.S.

18:46.000 --> 18:48.320
I'm sorry, but that's laughably absurd.

18:49.060 --> 18:52.220
From Lebanon to Yemen and Syria to Iraq,

18:52.600 --> 18:56.800
the regime has armed, trained and funded terrorist militias

18:56.800 --> 19:00.900
that have soaked the earth with blood and guts.

19:01.340 --> 19:04.840
All of the American blood and guts that they've soaked the earth with

19:04.840 --> 19:09.040
have been because of our illegal, unconstitutional

19:09.560 --> 19:11.320
immoral wars in the Middle East.

19:12.000 --> 19:15.360
Just a reminder. And by the way, most of those wars,

19:15.800 --> 19:19.340
almost all of them actually, I'd have to look at a map to be sure.

19:19.440 --> 19:23.840
But I think Syria and Iraq, both border Iran,

19:24.440 --> 19:27.200
or at least they're very close. Afghanistan is not too far off.

19:27.400 --> 19:32.280
And it was Iran's proxy that launched the monstrous October 7th attacks

19:32.280 --> 19:36.960
on Israel, slaughtering more than 1000 innocent people,

19:36.960 --> 19:42.000
including 46 Americans while taking 12 of our citizens hostage.

19:42.000 --> 19:46.960
It was brutal, something like the world has never seen before.

19:47.400 --> 19:50.860
Iran is the world's number one state sponsor of terror

19:51.300 --> 19:55.300
and just recently killed tens of thousands of its own citizens

19:55.300 --> 19:57.440
on the street as they protested.

19:57.540 --> 20:00.320
It has always been the policy of the United States,

20:00.820 --> 20:03.020
in particular, my administration,

20:03.940 --> 20:07.700
that this terrorist regime can never have a nuclear weapon.

20:08.280 --> 20:12.940
I'll say it again, they can never have a nuclear weapon.

20:13.420 --> 20:15.300
Well, I thought that was handled.

20:15.700 --> 20:18.600
I mean, even though I didn't support it, I thought at least

20:18.600 --> 20:24.580
they had removed the Cassus Belly for war based off of

20:25.300 --> 20:26.700
the bombing campaign last summer.

20:26.980 --> 20:29.640
They took out for the other nuclear facility sites.

20:29.800 --> 20:33.360
It's like, so how are we still pretending as if

20:34.020 --> 20:35.700
they have a nuclear weapon?

20:36.120 --> 20:38.640
How are you still pretending this lie is legitimate?

20:38.920 --> 20:43.860
Obviously an egregiously false or you you lied last summer

20:43.860 --> 20:46.880
and you didn't destroy the facilities, even though you just were adamant

20:46.880 --> 20:49.540
over and over again, we obliterated them.

20:49.720 --> 20:53.580
That is why in Operation Midnight Hammer last June,

20:53.940 --> 20:58.000
we obliterated the regime's nuclear program at Fordo,

20:58.640 --> 21:00.800
Natanz and Isfahan.

21:01.600 --> 21:05.220
After that attack, we warned them never to resume

21:05.220 --> 21:07.820
their malicious pursuit of nuclear weapons.

21:08.280 --> 21:12.080
And we sought repeatedly to make a deal.

21:12.460 --> 21:13.660
They wanted to do it.

21:13.740 --> 21:14.900
They didn't want to do it.

21:14.940 --> 21:16.260
They didn't know what was happening.

21:16.600 --> 21:18.560
They just wanted to practice evil.

21:19.160 --> 21:19.980
This is so crazy.

21:20.440 --> 21:22.420
According to the third party, Oman negotiators,

21:22.840 --> 21:27.140
yeah, they accepted everything that we wanted or 95 percent of what we wanted.

21:27.500 --> 21:29.920
I think they weren't going to give up civilian nuclear production,

21:30.020 --> 21:33.640
but like they caved, they gave you everything.

21:33.640 --> 21:37.540
And at this point, it's like, I mean, there's a chance,

21:37.660 --> 21:41.200
I guess, that Trump isn't actually privy to the negotiations

21:41.200 --> 21:44.040
because he doesn't seem to actually be hands on in any way.

21:44.360 --> 21:46.640
So maybe he doesn't know that he's being lied to,

21:46.800 --> 21:49.940
but I have to believe that he knows that he's just doing this

21:49.940 --> 21:55.400
because he's forced to blackmail violent threats after the Butler attack.

21:55.820 --> 21:58.420
Whatever the reason, I feel like he has to know.

21:58.680 --> 22:02.740
And I also got to say the fact that he's he's condemning Iran

22:02.740 --> 22:04.240
for trying to create a nuclear weapon,

22:04.320 --> 22:09.440
given that our current ally, the people we are fighting this war for in Iran,

22:09.680 --> 22:12.480
which would be the Israelis, have a nuclear arsenal,

22:12.620 --> 22:17.700
the only country on earth that we're aware of that has a nuclear arsenal

22:17.700 --> 22:21.500
that isn't under IAEA inspections,

22:21.960 --> 22:26.120
that doesn't have any of the nonproperation agreements signed, nothing.

22:26.880 --> 22:30.560
I mean, and I might add that same nation

22:30.560 --> 22:35.840
that has an undeclared nuclear weapons program, very high level, I would imagine,

22:36.380 --> 22:40.340
they have also been at war and bombed over six countries

22:40.340 --> 22:44.600
over the past two years or so, six countries.

22:45.420 --> 22:49.700
And we're going to pretend that the Iranians are the sinister

22:50.540 --> 22:55.460
nuclear program. I mean, it's just the hypocrisy is extraordinary.

22:56.300 --> 23:01.000
But Iran refused just as it has for decades and decades.

23:01.600 --> 23:06.120
They've rejected every opportunity to renounce their nuclear ambition,

23:06.280 --> 23:07.780
and we can't take it anymore.

23:08.460 --> 23:12.480
Instead, they attempted to rebuild their nuclear program

23:12.480 --> 23:16.380
and to continue developing long rage missiles

23:16.380 --> 23:21.520
that can now threaten our very good friends and allies in Europe,

23:21.520 --> 23:27.040
our troops stationed overseas and could soon reach the American homeland.

23:27.540 --> 23:31.800
Just imagine how emboldened this regime would be if they ever had

23:32.290 --> 23:38.140
and actually were armed with nuclear weapons as a means to deliver their message.

23:39.000 --> 23:43.360
For these reasons, the United States military is undertaking a massive

23:43.360 --> 23:48.020
and ongoing operation to prevent this very wicked, radical

23:48.020 --> 23:54.040
dictatorship from threatening America and our core national security interests.

23:54.920 --> 23:59.220
We are going to destroy their missiles and raise their missile industry

23:59.220 --> 24:04.140
to the ground. It will be totally again obliterated.

24:04.820 --> 24:08.000
We're going to totally again obliterate.

24:08.220 --> 24:10.700
If it was obliterated seven or eight months ago,

24:11.300 --> 24:13.080
it doesn't exist right now.

24:13.620 --> 24:17.200
You can't build up a nuclear facility from scratch in eight months.

24:17.200 --> 24:21.560
That's absurd, but we're going to obliterate it again.

24:22.200 --> 24:23.620
I elate their Navy.

24:23.880 --> 24:27.580
We're going to ensure that the region's terrorist proxies

24:27.580 --> 24:32.500
can no longer destabilize the region or the world and attack our forces

24:32.500 --> 24:37.460
and no longer use their IEDs or roadside bombs,

24:37.560 --> 24:42.400
as they are sometimes called to so gravely wound and kill thousands

24:42.400 --> 24:45.980
and thousands of people, including many Americans.

24:45.980 --> 24:51.620
And we will ensure that Iran does not obtain a nuclear weapon.

24:51.860 --> 24:54.000
It's a very simple message.

24:54.480 --> 24:55.660
They will never have.

24:56.040 --> 24:56.860
I can't do it.

24:57.220 --> 24:58.680
I can't listen to any more of the guy.

25:00.340 --> 25:05.380
Look, as you guys know, I was a hesitant first time Trump voter.

25:05.600 --> 25:10.600
This last go around and I am I mean,

25:10.620 --> 25:13.000
disgusted doesn't really do it justice.

25:13.640 --> 25:16.580
This guy is he's a traitor.

25:16.840 --> 25:20.000
I think he's a traitor to his own movement, to his own country.

25:21.220 --> 25:22.900
It's it's despicable.

25:23.500 --> 25:25.060
He ought to be ashamed of himself.

25:25.600 --> 25:29.940
And, you know, I know his inner circle is filled with a bunch of Zionist

25:29.940 --> 25:33.360
lunatics, Lutnik being his handler, in my opinion.

25:33.620 --> 25:37.740
He's probably being told that this is this is going to his poll

25:37.740 --> 25:38.940
numbers have been dropping.

25:39.380 --> 25:41.300
I know he's been lamenting that often.

25:41.300 --> 25:45.880
And I think he's just he's maybe they're they're telling him that, look,

25:45.960 --> 25:52.080
this is this is how we actually win back the public, that we have a fast,

25:52.200 --> 25:56.600
very vicious, very successful war over a matter of two or three weeks.

25:57.060 --> 26:00.560
The leadership, the Ayatollah falls in Iran.

26:01.180 --> 26:03.380
The Iranian people go out to the streets.

26:03.660 --> 26:05.860
They celebrate and then they take over their government.

26:06.200 --> 26:09.780
I mean, it's basically the same pitch that George Bush got and then

26:09.780 --> 26:11.300
made in 0304.

26:11.560 --> 26:13.160
But maybe he's buying it.

26:13.280 --> 26:15.360
Maybe he's been sold that bad bill of goods.

26:15.980 --> 26:17.480
I don't think that's likely to happen.

26:17.620 --> 26:21.940
And I think that I think that we just witnessed tonight, if it wasn't

26:21.940 --> 26:25.040
already over, which I think there's a distinct possibly that his

26:25.800 --> 26:30.400
his legacy, his presidency really ended last summer when he said,

26:30.500 --> 26:33.620
you're still talking about Epstein, if there was any doubt,

26:34.140 --> 26:35.220
there's no doubt anymore.

26:35.800 --> 26:36.620
This is it.

26:37.220 --> 26:39.540
I honestly don't see how you come back from this.

26:39.780 --> 26:45.100
Barring some miraculous, very rapid victory in Iran, in Tehran.

26:45.520 --> 26:46.300
Leadership falls.

26:46.960 --> 26:48.040
The people go out in the streets.

26:48.260 --> 26:51.820
They're all super thankful and there's not a civil war and there's just

26:51.820 --> 26:54.840
this peaceful blossoming of democracy in Iran.

26:55.380 --> 26:56.140
OK, maybe.

26:56.680 --> 26:59.560
But setting that very unlikely scenario aside,

27:00.430 --> 27:02.380
I think that his presidency is over.

27:02.920 --> 27:04.960
I think that he is DOA.

27:05.220 --> 27:08.500
And for the record, JD Vance, your DOA, too, buddy.

27:08.900 --> 27:14.060
I don't see how JD Vance, Marco Rubio, really anyone on the GOP side,

27:14.140 --> 27:19.080
aside from Thomas Massey has a hope in hell in 2028.

27:19.480 --> 27:23.780
I think you just literally turned our country over to the Democrats.

27:24.240 --> 27:25.980
And I'm not celebrating that fact.

27:26.140 --> 27:26.880
Let me be very clear.

27:27.180 --> 27:32.720
The two favorites, according to Polymarket or 2028 Democrat presidential candidate.

27:33.180 --> 27:37.860
Number one, Gavin Newsom, the man who destroyed my home state.

27:37.860 --> 27:41.600
Yeah, he's the number one favorite and the second AOC.

27:44.260 --> 27:48.260
I mean, it's it's a it's a catastrophe.

27:48.420 --> 27:52.660
And it's all of the good things that Trump campaigned on,

27:52.660 --> 27:57.900
that his base was rallying around that I got on board with at the last minute,

27:57.900 --> 28:01.340
hesitantly, but still liked a lot of the things they were saying.

28:01.540 --> 28:03.320
Going to this doge department.

28:03.460 --> 28:06.020
We're going to get rid of a trillion dollars worth of fraud.

28:06.020 --> 28:09.180
Elon Musk was saying maybe there's two trillion gone, doge is gone.

28:09.460 --> 28:11.280
They were going to abolish the Department of Education.

28:11.560 --> 28:11.920
Didn't happen.

28:12.000 --> 28:15.140
They were going to abolish USAID didn't happen.

28:15.220 --> 28:18.020
They instead rolled it into the State Department under Marco Rubio.

28:18.280 --> 28:20.900
They said they were going to end the war between Russia and Ukraine.

28:21.080 --> 28:23.460
The biggest thing I voted for him for didn't happen.

28:23.880 --> 28:25.020
They were going to end the war in Gaza.

28:25.260 --> 28:28.020
I guess it kind of happened, even though there continues to be fighting

28:28.020 --> 28:33.680
to this day and only after basically total conquest of the Palestinians.

28:34.160 --> 28:38.460
I mean, this guy talked about ending the fucking IRS and income tax.

28:39.080 --> 28:42.520
You know, in hindsight, in hindsight, I got to be honest,

28:42.820 --> 28:44.240
in hindsight, it is kind of laughable.

28:44.940 --> 28:45.740
Like, really?

28:46.220 --> 28:48.080
You thought that they were going to do any of those things?

28:48.760 --> 28:52.160
It's like, I didn't think that they were going to do, but I hoped.

28:52.460 --> 28:53.220
I hoped.

28:53.980 --> 28:56.240
And yeah, fell for it again.

28:56.400 --> 28:59.440
Award, as they say, I mean, it's just sad.

28:59.840 --> 29:00.760
It's really sad.

29:01.220 --> 29:05.080
And beyond being sad, it's so dangerous.

29:06.040 --> 29:09.660
I mean, what we're facing right now is so perilous.

29:09.900 --> 29:15.740
You got to understand, too, prior to Iraq War two, which was 2003

29:15.740 --> 29:20.640
and the full global war on terror, our national debt was under 10 trillion.

29:21.380 --> 29:24.660
It's 40 trillion today or 39 and a half trillion today.

29:24.740 --> 29:25.960
It'll be 40 trillion very soon.

29:26.720 --> 29:30.140
I mean, this is our financial circumstances

29:30.140 --> 29:33.840
just just consider the inflation that we've dealt with over the past four or five years.

29:34.200 --> 29:39.420
Our financial circumstances are so, so much less stable

29:39.420 --> 29:45.240
and so much more dangerous now than they were 23 years ago before the Iraq War.

29:45.640 --> 29:50.280
And it's like, we're now taking on a bigger war with a potential

29:50.280 --> 29:55.740
for a bigger catastrophe and certainly larger financial outlays

29:55.740 --> 30:01.540
and we're in four times worse economic circumstances.

30:02.260 --> 30:07.380
I mean, it is it's so reckless and there's really no upside.

30:07.940 --> 30:09.440
I mean, there really is no upside.

30:09.580 --> 30:15.360
Even even if the US topples Iran and topples their leadership,

30:15.520 --> 30:17.720
it doesn't really benefit Americans.

30:18.400 --> 30:21.640
What is the what is the huge benefit that we get from it?

30:21.700 --> 30:23.980
It's I can't even envision one.

30:23.980 --> 30:26.380
And for that reason, I'll conclude with this.

30:26.660 --> 30:29.380
I don't think that they're actually going to impeach Trump

30:29.380 --> 30:34.160
because I think Trump has so thoroughly sold out that the Democrats will protect him

30:34.160 --> 30:37.540
because I think that they wanted this war because their donors wanted this war.

30:37.820 --> 30:40.880
And I think that they're going to still pretend as if he's this fascist

30:40.880 --> 30:41.960
dictator and blah, blah, blah.

30:42.460 --> 30:45.400
But I'd be surprised if they actually impeach him like last time,

30:45.440 --> 30:47.620
because last time I think he was kind of a real boy.

30:47.840 --> 30:49.260
This time he's not a real boy at all.

30:49.260 --> 30:55.460
He is one lock, stock and barrel owned by foreign lobbyists or by foreign powers

30:55.460 --> 30:57.420
and and corporate powers.

30:57.500 --> 30:59.140
And I just think he's on their team now.

30:59.260 --> 31:00.880
So I'd be surprised if they impeach him.

31:00.940 --> 31:05.940
But I will say this, though, if I'm wrong and if there is a move

31:05.940 --> 31:11.360
from the Democrats or from Thomas Massey to file articles of impeachment,

31:11.880 --> 31:14.040
I hope that it goes through.

31:14.360 --> 31:16.340
I hope that he is convicted.

31:16.880 --> 31:21.220
And I like prosecuted and convicted, and I hope he spends the rest of his life in jail.

31:21.760 --> 31:24.380
That's how seriously I take this betrayal.

31:24.800 --> 31:26.180
And I don't even say that lightly.

31:27.200 --> 31:31.360
Like I spent just I've told the story before I think.

31:31.540 --> 31:35.780
But I spent an hour talking to his son, Donald Trump,

31:35.800 --> 31:39.220
Junior at when I was at Tim Cass one time.

31:40.100 --> 31:42.760
And I really liked the guy I did.

31:42.760 --> 31:47.560
I thought he was he seemed kind of like a more based version of his dad.

31:48.020 --> 31:51.340
Seemed to be much more red-pilled when it comes to a whole bunch of topics.

31:51.500 --> 31:53.540
And I've said that the conversation was off the record.

31:53.580 --> 31:54.440
So I'm going to leave it at that.

31:54.620 --> 31:59.820
But I like him, but Don, Junior, your father is a traitor to this country.

31:59.940 --> 32:01.360
I'm just being totally honest.

32:01.500 --> 32:03.140
He has sold out his own nation.

32:03.840 --> 32:06.140
He has sold out you and your children.

32:06.820 --> 32:08.580
And maybe you don't even know it yet.

32:08.580 --> 32:13.440
But what he has done on behalf of a foreign government,

32:13.900 --> 32:17.180
on a people that are not his own will be his legacy.

32:17.400 --> 32:18.980
And it is a disastrous one.

32:19.300 --> 32:24.220
And I just think that he had all of the good will from the American people

32:24.220 --> 32:28.160
after surviving the assassination attempts in Butler, Pennsylvania,

32:28.260 --> 32:33.120
after surviving the prosecutions that could have amounted to 700 or 800 years

32:33.120 --> 32:38.320
in prison after surviving the media just barrage of attacks,

32:38.600 --> 32:41.760
really unjustified attacks that, you know, Russian collusion,

32:41.880 --> 32:45.280
the FBI spying operations, he had so much good will.

32:45.740 --> 32:48.640
He was as popular as he had ever been in this country

32:48.640 --> 32:52.420
when he first got into office and just bit all the way

32:53.420 --> 32:55.760
for no benefit to the American people.

32:56.080 --> 32:57.840
And I just it's unforgivable.

32:58.540 --> 33:01.600
We needed him to be the guy he campaigned himself to be.

33:02.060 --> 33:04.460
And I thought that based off of all those things,

33:04.480 --> 33:08.180
I just detailed that there was at least a chance that he was a real boy,

33:08.180 --> 33:12.140
that he was going to go in there with a vengeance and try and shake shit up

33:12.140 --> 33:14.500
and really try and save this country because we needed a hero.

33:15.980 --> 33:18.040
And we got a villain and that's too bad.

33:20.380 --> 33:21.720

Leave a comment down below if I got any of this wrong.

33:25.980 --> 33:27.900
And let's hope and I mean this sincerely.

33:28.220 --> 33:30.920
Let's hope that no American troops died in any of those videos.

33:30.920 --> 33:33.400
I showed you any of the other videos I haven't played for you.

33:33.600 --> 33:37.540
And let's hope that this war ends very, very rapidly,

33:37.920 --> 33:39.860
like not even 12 days like last time,

33:41.220 --> 33:44.480
because this has a chance to spiral into something truly catastrophic.

33:45.120 --> 33:46.880
So I hope it doesn't happen.

33:47.140 --> 33:47.500
Love you guys.

33:47.920 --> 33:47.980
