1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,280 Speaker 1: Hello, everybody, some very big news that we can share 2 00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:04,840 Speaker 1: with all of you. Crystal, if you want to go 3 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: and put it up there on the screen, we'll read 4 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: directly from Donald J. Trump's truth social quote. We have 5 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: completed our very successful attack on the three nuclear sites 6 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 1: in Iran, including for Doau, Natanz, and Esfahan. All planes 7 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: are now outside of Iranian airspace. A full payload of 8 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: bombs was dropped on the primary site for DOE. All 9 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: planes are safely on their way home. Congratulations to our 10 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: great American warriors. There is not another military in the 11 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 1: world that could have done this. Now is the time 12 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: for peace. Thank you for your attention to this matter. 13 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 1: We've also been informed by President Trump. We're recording this 14 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,879 Speaker 1: roughly around eight thirty pm Eastern time. President Trump will 15 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: be giving an address to the nation at ten PM 16 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: at the White House regarding our successful military operation in Iran. 17 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 2: Quote. 18 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: This is a historic moment for the United States of America, Israel, 19 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: and the world. Iran must now agree to end this war. 20 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: So it happened, and yeah, I mean turns out that 21 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 1: the two weeks was actually a ruse, basically to get 22 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:10,199 Speaker 1: all of the military equipment in place. It does appear, guys, 23 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: that this was done with the B two bombers, the 24 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: stealth B two bombers capable of dropping these these massive 25 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: ordnance penetrators crystal. If do we want to put up 26 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: some images, if we can, these were uh these are 27 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: by the way, these are being dispersed right now by 28 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: the Israeli military. Please keep that in mind. But they do, 29 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,040 Speaker 1: at the very least for the moment. 30 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 3: That we're this account actually took those images down. 31 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 2: I always have to be. 32 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: Careful, so we don't yet know what the images that 33 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: have come out of there. By the way, we don't 34 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: actually know a lot even about the uh, the attack itself. 35 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: Trump uh, you know, is expected to perhaps announce details. 36 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: But you know, part of the reason I think that 37 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: we're all doing this right now is this is it, 38 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: you know, the dice casts like it's where we're at 39 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: war with Iran and there's really just no getting around 40 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: that very simple statement at this. 41 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 4: So we have not declared war on Iran, and we 42 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 4: are waiting for the White House to even muster the 43 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 4: legal justification, though if it exists, if they point to anything, 44 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 4: it will be dubious at the very very best. 45 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: I'm really glad you highlighted that, because that's something that 46 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: I think we should all really spend a lot of 47 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: time on. I mean, this is one of the most 48 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: extraordinary and aggressive, independent, unilateral actions launched by a president 49 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,519 Speaker 1: of the United States ever, and I'm just I'm struck 50 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 1: by that. I'm struck by you, in my opinion, just 51 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: such a foolhardy decision given I mean, the consequences that 52 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: are unfortunately very likely to come. We have thousands and 53 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: thousands of US service members, you know, the Straits of 54 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: War moves is at risk. We have a naval base 55 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: in Bahrain, we have air bases and US military bases 56 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: in Iraq. And yeah, I mean, I spent my whole 57 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: career and I've met so many people who've suffered in 58 00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: the global War on Terror, and it's really just terrifying, 59 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: you know, to think that we're right back and it's 60 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: totally unnecessary. 61 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 3: And let me just explain some of how this went down, 62 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 3: you know, just tracking from the beginning. So first we 63 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 3: had the revelation that Israel had bombed a bunch of 64 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 3: sites in Iran. The initial reaction from the Trump administration 65 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 3: from Secretary of State Mark Rubio was to feign effectively 66 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 3: surprise and say, oh, well, this was a completely unilateral action. 67 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: Very shortly thereafter, it became clear from Trump himself that 68 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 3: he was claiming credit for it, and they put out 69 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 3: to the press that actually all of their recent attempts 70 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 3: at diplomacy and the claim that they were going forward 71 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 3: with this next round of nuclear diplomacy talks, that this 72 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 3: was actually a ruse to create an ability for this 73 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 3: Israeli surprise attack. Since then, we've had this whole will 74 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 3: they or won't they? Very reality show esque, you know, 75 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 3: theater put on from Trump where he's seeking the advice 76 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 3: from this one. Different things are being leaked to the 77 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 3: press and all sorts of misinformation, and really the propaganda 78 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 3: effort kicks into full effect. Suddenly. Even though our Director 79 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 3: of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard at the end of March 80 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 3: told us the Iranians are not close to a nuclear weapon, 81 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 3: they are not pursuing a nuclear weapon, the IAEA says 82 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 3: the same thing, we have no evidence that the Iranians 83 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 3: are pursuing a nuclear weapon. But suddenly Trump and Fox 84 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 3: News and CNN to a great extent as well, suddenly 85 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 3: it's Iran is on the break of a nuclear weapon. 86 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 3: This is taken as effectively a fact, very wmd Iraq war. 87 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 3: The vibes are, you know, off the charts, and so 88 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 3: you get this drum beat going. And the question that he, 89 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 3: the President of the United States, is asking the American 90 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 3: people isn't hey, do you want a regime change, which, 91 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 3: based on the reporting, is what we have actually greenlit. 92 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 3: And the logic you know that we're headed on already. 93 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 3: I mean even that all the strikes and tyran, there 94 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 3: weren't nuclear facilities in Tehran, So what are we doing there? 95 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 3: The question that's being asked the American people from the 96 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 3: present isn't hey, do you want to get involved in 97 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 3: another idiotic, disastrous, like morally atrocious, illegal regime change war. 98 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 3: It's Aron's about to have a nuke. We can't. We 99 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 3: can't let them have a nuke. And from there the 100 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 3: logic flows to this moment when we directly engage. But 101 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 3: I don't want anyone to be fooled by the idea 102 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 3: that we weren't already involved, that this operation hadn't already 103 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 3: been greenlit. We know from Reuter's, we know from Ken 104 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 3: Klippenstein that the regime change operation had already been greenlit 105 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 3: by Trump. And I think a lot of the machinations 106 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 3: that we've seen going back and forth over this ensuing 107 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 3: time period has been mostly for show. And you know 108 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 3: this was this was the intention effectively all along. 109 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 5: And Christal, just to add to that point real quickly, 110 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 5: you said that, you know, as Tulsea Gabert Gabartt said 111 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 5: that the nuclear program was not up and running, what 112 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 5: she also so said is that it had not been 113 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,799 Speaker 5: running since two thousand and three. Right, come any shut 114 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 5: it down in two thousand and three. That's that's the 115 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 5: intelligence assessment that it's that it has been dormant for 116 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 5: more than twenty years, and the intelligence community believed that 117 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 5: it that it remained dormant. I think there's one piece 118 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 5: of news that I wanted to put up here that 119 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 5: emerge today which is relevant to this, which is on 120 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 5: Watch Media. Really really impressive. They have a ton of 121 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 5: like sources, like very close to like senior leaders in Iran. 122 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 5: They reported today that the Supreme Leader assembled what's called 123 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 5: the as you see it here, the Assembly of Experts. 124 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 5: This is the in Iran's constitution. This is like how 125 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 5: they and I'll scroll this ups if anybody wants to 126 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 5: pause and like read this, like this is how they 127 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 5: they determine their success or. They've got this little eighty 128 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 5: eight member clerical council. They sit down, they come up 129 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 5: with candidates that are going to replace the Supreme and 130 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 5: then they pick one and that becomes the new Supreme leader. 131 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 5: So comm Ani is saying here like okay, this this 132 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 5: might be it for me, Like I'm going to take 133 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 5: Israel in the United States at their word. You know, 134 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 5: after this hospital was hit yesterday the day before Israeli 135 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 5: Israeli President Herzog was saying, like, okay, Comani cannot live 136 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 5: any longer. And there have been all of these reports 137 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 5: that Kamani is going to be killed by the Israelis, 138 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 5: but Trump has been holding him back. We don't know 139 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 5: whether or not we can believe any of this because 140 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 5: you know, we're in the fog of like intentional disinformation 141 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 5: in order to gain advantage in the war. What what 142 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 5: Commani is saying there, And he's been under pressure for 143 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 5: years now because he's in the eighties. It's like, guys, 144 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 5: like you need to come up with a successor. But 145 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 5: he'd been put he'd been pushing off this this creation 146 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 5: of a successor. So now today he's announced, all right, 147 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 5: we're going to do a successor. 148 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 3: What does that? 149 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 5: What does that mean? You can kill him, you can 150 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 5: bomb the nuclear sites. What What he's trying to signal 151 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 5: is that the Iranian state is going to continue from Israel. 152 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 5: You hear them saying, we need to get rid of 153 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 5: this threat to us. We need to be done with this. 154 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 5: It's like be done with it, how like it's a thing. 155 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 5: It exists, it's going to it exists today. You can 156 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 5: vombit all night long. It will exist tomorrow and you 157 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 5: can kill Kameani and they'll have somebody else. 158 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 2: Emily. 159 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: Sorry, just before you speak, Crystal, could you put Ken 160 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 1: Clippenstein's feed up. He has a report just out from 161 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: a single minute ago, which is very important because there's 162 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: two things that we all have to focus on here 163 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: right now, regime change and potential escalation and retaliation by 164 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: both the Iranians, and then escalation from the United States. 165 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: So I'll read here from Ken quote the US military 166 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: is now briefing troops that would strike on Iran quote 167 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 1: will likely result in counter strikes on US basis and 168 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 1: facilities in the Middle East, and likely activate Iran and 169 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: other foreign terrorist organization cells abroad, including the US, to 170 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: conduct strikes against US persons and facilities, according to a 171 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: briefing I have obtained, so obviously Ken a great friend 172 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:08,599 Speaker 1: of the show. 173 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 2: With great reporting there. 174 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: But that is the nightmare, Cyril, and that is why 175 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: I'm so afraid that there is no stepping off this 176 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: ladder now that Donald Trump has again unilaterally put us on. 177 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 1: You know, he says peace. You know, you to bomb 178 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: a country and pay for prey for peace. As Ryan 179 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: just highlighted, you know, the Iranian state is arguably I mean, 180 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: at this point, something so Abamari said on our show 181 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: that I have really been thinking about is that in 182 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: a way, you know, the Iranians were so infiltrated by 183 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: Mosad that initially it was a disaster and it was 184 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: a total humiliation. But they've regrouped to a point where 185 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 1: they've been able to militarily continue their activity against Israel, 186 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: at least with some limited amount of success, to the 187 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: point where the Israel owned reporters are saying, this place 188 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: looks like Gaza. So that's there still, you know, military capability, 189 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: we have to look to the straits of ourmus the 190 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: barrel boyl price could go to hundred dollars for barrel. 191 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 2: All of our US. 192 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: Facilities in Iraq and in Syria. I mean, there's so 193 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: many Iranian proxy groups all over the country of Iraq. 194 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: The government of Iraq, by the way, will not be 195 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: supporting us very much. They protested our own action just 196 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: today at the United Nations, and the Gulf Arab States 197 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: also are not supportive of this. So the logistics operation 198 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: is a total nightmare. If this thing gets worse, two 199 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: carrier strike groups in the region, so we have to 200 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: highlight that. 201 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 2: Go ahead, Emily. 202 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 4: Sorry, no, I was actually going to ask you where 203 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 4: we should be looking at retaliatory action. 204 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: Potentially, Iraq is a big one. Iraq is a really 205 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: big one because Iraq is actually the place where our 206 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: forces are probably the least protected and are very vulnerable, 207 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: possibly to getting rushed by like those ground cut up 208 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: Hasbola folks who have rockets, who for now have not 209 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: had the straits of our moves. 210 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 2: Is the biggest one. 211 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: Also, don't forget about the who Thies, which you know, 212 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: despite bombing the shit out of them for what like 213 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: ten twelve years right now or something. 214 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 5: As talking let me put this up on Let me 215 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 5: put this up on the screen. Yeah, this is this 216 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 5: is your point, Secretary General of Al Neu Java Iraqs. Uh, 217 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 5: what you know? The Iraq is filled with these Iranian 218 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 5: backed militia groups. One of the biggest ones said, you 219 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 5: bomb them. Uh, you know, we're going to target Americans, 220 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 5: not just military but also civilian. And there are thousands 221 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 5: and thousands of Americans you know, running around. 222 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 1: Not to mention as a story that Crystal and I 223 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: highlighted in our show, do you know how many Americans 224 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 1: are trapped inside of Israel right now? Hundreds of thousands. 225 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: There is no there are no evacuation flights. The entire 226 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: airspace is closed, so we could possibly see something there. 227 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 2: Who knows what the Iranians. 228 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 5: We have what ten thousand service members and Cutter, which 229 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 5: Cutter has been, you know, engaging in direct diplomacy with 230 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 5: Iran saying like, look, we're not involved with this, please 231 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 5: don't hit us. And Saudi and the UE have been 232 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 5: saying the same thing, like like we're sorry that we 233 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 5: heard this. The United States like we're not doing this, 234 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 5: like please do not retaliate against us. 235 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 3: Well and twice I think it really bears emphasizing twice, 236 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 3: now we used the pretext of supposed diplomatic negotiations as 237 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 3: a ruse. Yes, you know, I mean, how serious can 238 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 3: you be about negotiations? Actually, Tim Dillon was making this 239 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 3: joke when you're killing the people you're negotiating with, Like, 240 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 3: is that a serious You're serious about diplomacy when you're 241 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 3: murdering the people that you're supposed to be dealing with. 242 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: So now twice over the course of just weeks, we've 243 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:45,679 Speaker 3: used pretend diplomacy to run cover for bombing campaigns. And 244 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 3: you know, I so not only with you know, Iran 245 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 3: and the futures. Now, I'm sure Trump when he comes 246 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 3: out tonight, he's going to say here's a few things. 247 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 3: I predict he's going to say. First, he's going to say, 248 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 3: we tried. You know that, we tried. We were at 249 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 3: the table with them, they just were ops and they 250 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 3: wouldn't come around. We tried again, they rejected us again. 251 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 3: And he's probably he may even say, hey, now come 252 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 3: to the table. Now, come now, let's come to a deal. 253 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 3: Who in their right mind you're threatening right now to 254 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 3: kill their leader? You're you actually, if you're a rod, 255 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 3: you're thinking now we should have had a bomb long 256 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 3: ago to prevent exactly what's unfolding right now. So Soccer, 257 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 3: you were pointing out the polymarket odds of a rod 258 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 3: developing a nuclear weapon have actually gone up, because that 259 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 3: is the actual logic that we've created. And I want 260 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 3: to emphasize this because this is so important in terms 261 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 3: of thinking about where we're going to go next, because 262 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 3: now what the Hawks are going to say is, you 263 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,439 Speaker 3: can see the polymarket odds there. Now what the Hawks 264 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 3: are going to say is, well, maybe we took out 265 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 3: for dough or maybe we degraded for doe, but they 266 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 3: still have these capabilities and by the way, they can 267 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 3: still build that, and we still have this evil regime 268 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 3: in place, and as long as they're in place, we 269 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 3: can't feel safe that they're not going to build a 270 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 3: nuclear weapon. And then okay, so what do you do? Then? Oh, well, 271 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 3: I guess we just have to take this regime out 272 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 3: and let democracy flourish and you know, install the the 273 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 3: Shaw's fail Sun or whatever the bullshit is gonna be. 274 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 3: But that's that's the way this logic goes. And listen, 275 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 3: bib Nan Yaho knows that, right, But I also I 276 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 3: am so reluctant in a sense to bring him into 277 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 3: this because there's all this language. Oh we got dragged 278 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 3: into Ward. Trump's getting tricked at bull shit. Yes, this 279 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 3: man promised to bomb ran on the campaign trail multiple times. 280 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 3: You can go look at the White House feed. They 281 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 3: put on a very nice compilation of all the times 282 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 3: that he said that Iran can't have a nuke and 283 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 3: he specifically said that we should be bombing that, you know, 284 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 3: their nuclear facilities should be bombed, multiple times on the 285 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 3: campaign trail. Okay, Joe Biden million issues with him. According 286 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 3: to the reporting, the Israeli's been pushing this regime chain 287 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 3: operation for years at this point, and the Biden administration said, no, 288 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 3: this would be too catastrophic. This is a bad idea. No, no, no. 289 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 3: From what we can tell, Trump did the same for 290 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 3: a while. You know, this is not a good idea. 291 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 3: I can see how this would go poorly. I can 292 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 3: see how this would, you know, get us involved all 293 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 3: sorts of things we don't necessarily want to be involved with, 294 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 3: and we've got other priorities, et cetera. And then he 295 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 3: gets to a point and he decides, you know, I'm 296 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 3: bored with these negotiations, let's just bomb them. Does not 297 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 3: seem quick? Doesn't that seem easy? And now here we 298 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 3: are on this chain of escalation that listen, maybe we'll 299 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 3: be wrong. Maybe they'll just bomb four doh and that'll 300 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 3: be it, and there'll be no retaliation, there'll be no fallout, 301 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 3: we won't get pulled even further. And maybe that'll be it. 302 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 3: But it is very hard to see how that is 303 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 3: what plays out here alto. 304 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, the bet I think I've said this before, I'll 305 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: just reiterate it. The best case show on Ario right 306 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: now is Libya. That is the best case. The best 307 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: case is we bomb, we came, we saw, we bombed, 308 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: and we left right and oh. 309 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 5: Ten years, ten to fifteen years of kaots erupted into. 310 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: A fifteen years civil But then of course beautiful isocracy 311 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: and the democracy, thriving democracy that we have right now. 312 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: I also, I think Crystal is so correct like Israel, 313 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: Israel is both the primary and a secondary actor, but 314 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, like they are the 315 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: secondary actor now, especially with Donald Trump. One thing I 316 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: do especially want to highlight on the regime change front 317 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: is I have been watching this raise Apolovy stuff very closely, 318 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: which I know it sounds crazy, but we talked. 319 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 2: About it here before. 320 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: Fox News is referring to this guy as his Royal 321 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: Highness Crystal if you want. My latest tweet is specifically 322 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 1: highlighting a Israeli report that came out just three hours ago. 323 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: This is from Wynette News inside of Israel. This is 324 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: Emily Strader quote multiple sources. There are discussions ongoing with 325 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: the United States and the Crown Prince rais Apolovy for 326 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: the day after the Islamic regime fails. So as you 327 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 1: can see, that is a very that look. I mean, 328 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: I am forced at this point to take these seriously. 329 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: I also would highlight Polavi's latest tweet himself, he says. 330 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: Sources insiety Iran say that regime's command and control structures 331 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: are collapsing at a rapid pace. Meanwhile, the international community 332 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: is beginning to realize the Islamic Republican has no future. 333 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: Our discussions about a post Islamic Republic Iran have begun. 334 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 1: We have our Auchmchaloby and I'll be honest, Achmedchalaby was 335 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: way more legitimate as legitimate as he was. 336 00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 6: Fail Sun. 337 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 3: And that's actually one of the things Emily I was 338 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 3: thinking about today is like I am like, I am 339 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 3: actually in disbelief as negative of an opinion as I 340 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 3: have of Donald Trump, I am actually in disbelief that 341 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 3: we're doing this again. Like and it's so much dumber 342 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 3: because at least they a rock war. They bothered to 343 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 3: like have a propaganda show for us. They bothered, you know, 344 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 3: and we were all, you know after nine to eleven, 345 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 3: like we were galvanized. We wanted to do something. They 346 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 3: put on the propaganda show and they had colon Palaty, 347 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 3: They did the whole thing. And this like we have 348 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 3: I really want people to think about this. We have 349 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 3: not been offered one shred of intelligence that suggests Iran 350 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 3: was close to or developing a nuclear weapon. Our own 351 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 3: intelligence community says they're not, the IAEA says they're not, 352 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 3: and all Trump says is well, I don't care what 353 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 3: Tulsea Gabbart said, trust me, that's basically it. And Saber, 354 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,439 Speaker 3: I know you were reporting that none of the in 355 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 3: new quote unquote new intelligence comes from our own intelligence community. 356 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 3: We're trusting the word of the Israelis. How many decades 357 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 3: have they been saying Iran is the day or a 358 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 3: week or a month or a year whatever away from 359 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 3: a bomb, like I can the stupidity, and how like 360 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 3: they think we are so stupid? And when I see 361 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 3: the paganda and Fox News is the absolute worst. They're 362 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,719 Speaker 3: the ones out there calling the Shaw fail Sun his 363 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 3: royal highness and ready to put him right on the throne. 364 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 3: CNN is egregious. The little bit I watch of MSNBC 365 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 3: was slightly more tolerable. I'll say, if you're going to 366 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,360 Speaker 3: grade them in terms of rank just because they're you know, 367 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 3: they're negatively polarized against Trump. But I can't believe how 368 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 3: easy it is to whip these well. I can, sadly 369 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 3: I can, but it's astonishing to see how quickly you 370 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 3: can whip these places up into total manufacturing consent propaganda shops, 371 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 3: regurgitating whatever it is that their administration wants them to 372 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 3: framing it in the way they want it to be framed. 373 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 3: And it is so wild to me to see this 374 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 3: all playing out again, but in a speed run like 375 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 3: social media AI slop version of what we got the 376 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 3: original time. 377 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 4: So this is twenty four minutes apart, twenty four minutes apart. 378 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 6: Matt Gates on Oh my God, and yep. 379 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 4: So on the one hand that he saying I'm so 380 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 4: proud of this administration in reference to an Alex Ward 381 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 4: report that Rubio has told European allies the Trump administration's 382 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 4: preferred option with Iran as a diplomatic deal. Then after 383 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 4: Trump post on true Social that Forda was bombed, Matt 384 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 4: Gates says President Trump basically wants this to be like 385 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 4: the SOLMANI strike one and done, no regime change war. 386 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 2: Now. 387 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 4: For what it's worth, Matt Gates is somebody who when 388 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 4: he was in Congress was adamantly in opposition to the 389 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 4: way war powers have been used and abused by presidents 390 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 4: in the last two decades. And actually the comparison with 391 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 4: the Bush administration is interesting because I take issue with 392 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:38,959 Speaker 4: the way that George W. 393 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,120 Speaker 6: Bush used war powers, but at least they. 394 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 4: Went did some Congress as symbolance of going to Congress, right, 395 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 4: And now we are looking at the imminent, potentially the 396 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 4: imminent deaths of American service members in a war that 397 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 4: we have entered, because we have just dropped massive bombs 398 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 4: on another country with no congressional authorization. So I just 399 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,879 Speaker 4: want to say I've been checking in with sources. I 400 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 4: know we all have, but a couple of things from 401 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 4: just two people closed the administration. One referred to this 402 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,479 Speaker 4: and crystalis gets to the politics that you were talking about. 403 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 4: One referred to this furiously as a betrayal and went 404 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 4: on in all kinds of different colorful ways about how 405 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 4: exactly this is a betrayal. Another says, the staff at 406 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 4: the White House is split pretty much down the center. 407 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 6: That's their estimate on what this is. 408 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 4: A lot of people are being very vocal behind closed 409 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 4: doors about being a post any use of force. 410 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 6: In this situation. 411 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 4: Other people saying even more intense things from that. Some 412 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 4: are worried that because the NSC was gutted not long ago, 413 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 4: that you're going to have a lot of resentment in 414 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 4: the NSC about what happened after the gutting of the NSC. 415 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 4: So I think that's actually somewhat interesting to the point 416 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 4: that you were making about. We had that post of 417 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 4: Michael Tracy posted Douglas McGregor at the Maha Rescue the 418 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 4: Republic rally on the National Mall a couple of weeks 419 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 4: before the election, where it was like barefoot hippies and 420 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 4: evangelical Christians. 421 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 6: I know, because I won't covered it, and a lot 422 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 6: of it was about peace. It was a lot of. 423 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 4: Hope and hope and change optimism about Donald Trump being 424 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 4: the peace candidate. And that's where you saw the horseshoe 425 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 4: of the hippies and Maga evangelicals coming together under the 426 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 4: banner of peace. And I think it is really cheap 427 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 4: talk to have people in the administration, you know now 428 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 4: leaking that JD. Vance was reportedly being vocal against it, 429 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 4: and I think we're going to see a whole lot 430 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 4: of ass covering through leaks in the next few weeks. 431 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 6: So I think a lot of that is really cheap. 432 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 6: It also, though, speaks to how powerful the war machine is. 433 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 4: This is something Tucker Carlson and Stave Bannon we're talking 434 00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 4: about in their conversations recently that once that thing gets going, 435 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 4: if Donald Trump and the people around him are cowing 436 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 4: being cowed by it, it's over. 437 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 6: Nobody will ever stand up to it. 438 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 4: And whatever you think of that assessment, I think it's 439 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,719 Speaker 4: wrong because Trump is much more of a warmonger than 440 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 4: people give him credit for. 441 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 3: But whatever you think of that assessment, that was their view. 442 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: Look, I mean, it's this is all for another day. 443 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: This is just a much bigger conversation about the failure 444 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 1: of the quote unquote anti war movement and all of this. 445 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I think, for what it's worth it, I 446 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: don't ever I don't think I ever said Trump would 447 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: be anti war. 448 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 2: I was expecting him to be extremely pro Israel. Did 449 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 2: I expect him to bomb Iron? 450 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 3: No? 451 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 2: And I'll be honest about why. 452 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,360 Speaker 1: The main reason was because there actually was a professional 453 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 1: project over the last four and a half years to 454 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 1: basically operationalize quote unquote restraint style of views, and the 455 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 1: cope from a lot of the people on the inside was, yeah, 456 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: he says a lot of shit to get Miriam Angelsson's endorsement, 457 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: and look, of course you're gonna get you know, you're 458 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: gonna get. Look, Gaza's gone, you know. I think I 459 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: said that. I was like, that's that's going to happen. 460 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 2: And all of this. 461 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 1: But in terms of active intervention, you know, the John 462 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 1: Kelly and the Maddis style people who were actually pushing 463 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 1: this in the first term, they're out now, and so 464 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: a lot of that influence won't happen, but instead was 465 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: actually is fascinating. There's been an inverse where I can 466 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: back up what Emily is saying. There is a massive 467 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: amount of this administration which is furious about this decision. 468 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:28,880 Speaker 1: I'm talking all the way from the top to the bottom, 469 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: inside of the White House and inside of the Pentagon, 470 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 1: of the State Department, the CIA, the OD and I 471 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: in terms of the political appointees. But this time around, 472 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: the pressure has largely been from the exter It's been 473 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: Mark Levin, It's been you know, the foundation defensive democracies. 474 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 1: It's these major pro Israel groups and specifically coordination. We 475 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:53,479 Speaker 1: have Fox News right, the Murdoch family. The Israeli government 476 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: is basically working hand and foot with those folks. And 477 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: what they did, and this is really the indictment of 478 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: Trump and actually is going to force me rethink a 479 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: lot of my priors. Is what they did is they 480 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: use the chaos and the lack of inner agency of 481 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: Trump and his sheer accessibility of anybody who would talk 482 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: to to influence a lot of his thinking and to 483 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: actually circumvent so much of his professional staff. So that's 484 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 1: more of like an inside baseball thing. But I do 485 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: want to return to the intelligence because this is a 486 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: very important story. No matter what Donald Trump says, I'm 487 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: telling you this, and I can back this up, and 488 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 1: one day the Iran War Study Group will come out 489 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 1: into you know, as it did in six which showed 490 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 1: that all the Iraq war intel was bullshit. Well, one 491 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: day this will all come out, So unfortunately I have 492 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: to wait a little bit to see it. 493 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:37,479 Speaker 2: In writing. 494 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 1: There is not one scrap of United States intelligence that 495 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: backs up the claim that Iran was actively trying to 496 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 1: make a nuclear weapon. Now what you're gonna hear a 497 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 1: lot about is something called highly enriched uranium. We're gonna 498 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 1: have Scott Horton on the show on Monday. He's gonna 499 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: break all this down in a much better way that 500 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: I can. What they are going to claim is that 501 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: having the capacity, the capacity using that capacity of where 502 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: they are sixty percent, and then the timeline between sixty 503 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: and ninety percent, and then the timeline from there for 504 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: assembly was the reason for the strike. Now remember this, 505 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 1: This gets to the Tulsi Gabbard point. 506 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 6: It's up her most recent posts. 507 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: Please do because what has happened is that Tulsi herself 508 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: is now a turncoat. She is the Colon Powell of 509 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:24,360 Speaker 1: this administration. By faking the way that US intelligence at 510 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 1: what actually thinks to present a false case for why 511 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: this strike was supposed to happen, if you want to 512 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 1: put it up Emily. 513 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 2: So here's what she says. 514 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: She says, the dishonest media is intentionally taking my testimony 515 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: out of context, spreading fake news as a way to 516 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: manufacture division. America has intelligence that Iran is at the 517 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: point that it can produce a nuclear weapon within weeks 518 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 1: to months. Let me tell you something again. That sentence 519 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 1: is complete, made up, bullshit. America does not have that 520 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 1: intelligence Israel. 521 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 3: She knows that America is intelligence. 522 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 6: America has. This is how she's doing. 523 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 4: America has Israeli intelligence according to your reporting, Saga. 524 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 6: And when she says this is where it gets really. 525 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 4: Cold and Powell, ye, within weeks two months, produce a 526 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,639 Speaker 4: nuclear weapon within weeks two months. And that's where suddenly 527 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 4: this becoming a crisis in the last few days doesn't 528 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 4: even comport with her explicit statement there. 529 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 3: Yes, she and she has the video there like you 530 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 3: can listen. 531 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: To it and you can read, you can watch it. 532 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 3: This is something we were talking about before. This is 533 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 3: like the new thing is to put on a video 534 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 3: and put some text with it that completely contradicts the video, 535 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 3: and just hope nobody watches it and puts two and 536 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,199 Speaker 3: two together like that's how dumb they think that we are. 537 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 3: That's how dishonest they are. And listen, do you I mean, 538 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 3: do you all think there will be a single resignation 539 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,199 Speaker 3: from this administration. I mean, if anyone who's going to 540 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:46,919 Speaker 3: it should be toulsy. This was supposed to be her 541 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 3: whole bit, like the extent she had any shred of 542 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 3: a principle left that she was still interesting and maintaining 543 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 3: this was it. And listen when she didn't support honestly 544 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,959 Speaker 3: Biden getting an out of Afghanistan, which you know was obvious, 545 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 3: like really unpopular, and she was over on Fox News. 546 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 3: I think she had a contributorship or whatever. She's conveniently 547 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,919 Speaker 3: absent for the first portion of it, and then she 548 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 3: went out and you know, wasn't supportive of that. It's like, Okay, 549 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,199 Speaker 3: you don't actually believe anything. And unfortunately those of us 550 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 3: who have been saying that proven correct. You believe in 551 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 3: your own ambition, you're gonna say what you didn't need 552 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 3: to say to keep your job, and you have no 553 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,640 Speaker 3: shred of integrity. No one should trust a word out 554 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 3: of your mouth. 555 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: Well, especially on the intelligence. Again, that is not American intelligence, 556 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 1: It's Israelly intelligence. And by the way, the US intelligence 557 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: community does not agree with that. And by the way, 558 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: you know, just even stepping back even further, this claim 559 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: that sixty percent uranium is just so magically easy to 560 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: turn into ninety percent and then magically easy to put 561 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: on top of a ballistic missile which is then magically 562 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: going to reach. 563 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 2: New York City. 564 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: What the fuck are we talking about again? Well, Scott 565 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: will explain a lot of this, but I'm telling you 566 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: at a technical level, it is ridiculous even on its 567 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: face if they wanted to, which they do not, and 568 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: instead Trump has filled This. 569 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 2: Is another thing. 570 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not just my reporting, it's New York 571 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 1: Times as well. I didn't I didn't put this in 572 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 1: there because it was already out. The only two things 573 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: that the America believes that would make you ron produce 574 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: a nuclear weapon is hitting four dough and assassinating the Ayatola. 575 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: So we just fulfilled one of them. 576 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, and they're trying prophecy, trying for the other one, 577 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 3: clearly trying for the other one. I mean, and just like, 578 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 3: can we be adults here and not be children? Why 579 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 3: do they have this highly enricheranium because they need it 580 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 3: for leverage to keep Israel from bombing them just for bombing. 581 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 3: It's a negotiaon to obviously, like clearly, you know, try 582 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 3: for five seconds to think about how they may be 583 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,239 Speaker 3: viewing things. Israel is wiping Gaza off the map. I mean, 584 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 3: they've accelerated their level of massacres. These Aid massacres have 585 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 3: just continued endlessly, day after day after day. They have 586 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 3: watched Israel turn Gaza into rubble, you know, destroy has 587 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 3: will like bomb all sorts of the neighborhood. And they're 588 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 3: supposed to feel cum fiela, Oh sure, we'll just like 589 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 3: disarm and give up, you know, any sort of credible 590 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 3: deterrent threat against Israel, nation that has at least ninety 591 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 3: nuclear weapons and isn't in the non Deliberation treaty like 592 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 3: and and Iran is supposed to just you know feel 593 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 3: like they can sit back and be comfy and not 594 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 3: be threatened at all. Let's be grown ups about this 595 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 3: situation and understand what we're dealing with here. It's just 596 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 3: it's so insane to me and I'm already seeing you know, 597 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 3: all the a number of the MAGA figures who were 598 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 3: claiming that they were against this. You've already got Charlie 599 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 3: kirk here out saying, with the weight of the world 600 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 3: on his shoulders, present Trump acted for the betterment of humanity. 601 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 3: For the next few hours, Sparis the armchair quarterbacking Saga instead, 602 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 3: trust our commander in sheet. 603 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: This is, and this is. 604 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 3: You're so right, it's perfect, You're right. 605 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: Question Yeah, no, And that's it. 606 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 3: And that's the danger of having a movement built around 607 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: a cult of personality. You've got your little views about 608 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 3: what this movement is. It doesn't matter what Charlie Kirker, 609 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 3: Steve Ban or Tucker or anyone else thinks America First 610 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 3: is or MAGA is or whatever. At the end of the. 611 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 4: Day, Don Junior, it doesn't matter what Don Junior thinks, No. 612 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 3: What Trump thinks, what he does. And I don't know 613 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 3: anyone who hasn't learned that by this point, I don't 614 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 3: even know what to say. 615 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, and continuing in this vein, I mean, yeah, look, 616 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: MAGA and all that. That's probably the most insignificant story 617 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 1: at this point, just because I don't think this is 618 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: a political question now, because now this is in the 619 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: hands of the Iranians in the US military. It's not 620 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: even in the hands of Congress. It's in the hands 621 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: of a single man. And the lives of literally millions 622 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 1: of people are at stake. Remember, mister, evacuate Tehran. So 623 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: I'm not exaggerating when I say millions of people, that's right, 624 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: are actually let me here at State. 625 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 3: Let me put this up, guys. I'll spare you having 626 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 3: to listen to Sean Hannity, but he's claiming here, I 627 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 3: just spoke to the president. And how new information appears. 628 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 3: The US completely obliterated Iran's top secret nuclear facility with 629 00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 3: six huge bunkerbuster bombs to other nuclear sites white Down 630 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 3: with thirty Tamahawk missiles launched by submarines four hundred miles away. Yeah, 631 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 3: and there they are. They are gleeful over there, gleeful. 632 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 4: So RCP reporting that Trump and Nutt and Yahoo spoke 633 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 4: after the strike was complete, and the US also gave. 634 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 6: Israel quote unquote heads up before the strike. 635 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 4: No surprise there, but interesting that, of course Trump immediately 636 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 4: got on the phone with. 637 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 2: That is crazy. 638 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: Six is a lot higher actually than initially was telegraphed, Wow, yeah, 639 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: this is I was just looking here at the equivalent 640 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: power of TNT. This is just shitload of TNT here 641 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: that was dropped. 642 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 6: Then whatsager eighteen million dollars a pop? 643 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 2: So we actually the production costs I don't even know. 644 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: I mean, that's probably the technical that doesn't even keep 645 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: in mind a lot of the research is two point 646 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: four metric tons of high explosive. It doesn't it's not 647 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: worth getting into the point is. 648 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 2: This is an absolutely massive bomb. 649 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: It's less than a nuclear weapon, but it is still 650 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: like it's very, very significant to be dropped. And then 651 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: they said thirty Tomahawk missiles that were fired. 652 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 2: Is that what he said? 653 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: Thirty Tomahawk missiles from Sean Hannity, So, I mean, that's 654 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 1: an extraordinary mess by probably indicates the US Navy was 655 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 1: involved then in terms of where they were, in terms 656 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: of how they were used. It's it's again you know here, 657 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: it does indicate we've got two carrier strike groups there, 658 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: We've got the straits of war moves which everybody is 659 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: taking a look at. We've got all these bases in 660 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: Iraq and in Syria. You know, the potential here again 661 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: for a serious, serious problem with US forces is very 662 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: high and it will just lead to immediate snapback. The 663 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: congressional question is very important as well. I mean, I 664 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 1: don't expect anything to happen. It's just Thomas Massey and 665 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: forty five other Republicans already, the leaders of both chambers 666 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: speaking of Democrats, sorry, Democrats, yeah, I mean yeah. 667 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 3: He's the only Republican who. 668 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: Republican sign on. So Speaker Johnson and Senator and Senator 669 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: Senate my majority leader John Thune have both now approved 670 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 1: of the strike. So the both two leaders of the 671 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: Houses of Congress are basically saying, hey, great job. They're 672 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 1: not even saying that you had to come to us 673 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: and to seek approval from Congress. I mean, you know, 674 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: And it's just again just demonstrates like we truly like 675 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: our fate is in Trump's hands, and that's insane, and 676 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: it is something now where he has he has created 677 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: this situation. It's a situation where, you know, the domestic 678 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: implications of this. I don't want to undermine either this 679 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: whole you know, this whole like doj anti Semitism thing. 680 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 1: I mean, by tomorrow, this show and everything, we're saying. 681 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 2: Is anti semitic. 682 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: As we all point, it's gonna be anti sthetic to 683 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: say that we've declared war on you know, an unconstitutional 684 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 1: war on Iran. We all know already, Emily, I'm sure 685 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,879 Speaker 1: you'll get this reference famously, Crystal. In two thousand and three, 686 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 1: David from wrote a National Review piece called Unpatriotic Conservatives 687 00:34:58,239 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 1: and one. 688 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 2: Do you know who he calls that? 689 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 1: Yeah? 690 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 4: Oh good, But do you know who he called the 691 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 4: anti semitic Robert Novack and drew me Catholicism. But yeah, no, 692 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 4: it doesn't matter nothing. 693 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, proudly was apparently included in the twenty 694 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 1: twenty five version of Unpatriotic Conservatism from National Review. But 695 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,959 Speaker 1: that's my point is the propaganda effort, like Crystal is saying, 696 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: is gonna be crazy. I'm already seeing Crystal. 697 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 3: He said, we can't underestimate it either. 698 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 1: Oh, it's it's crazy. 699 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 2: I mean, we covered the polling here. 700 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: People don't want to believe it. 701 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 2: It's true. 702 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: The people will gleed to those television screens. They are 703 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: you know, they're bringing on people again. And look, I 704 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,240 Speaker 1: hate to talk shit about people who served our country. 705 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,160 Speaker 1: But Fox News brings in a guy who's like a 706 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,399 Speaker 1: Delta Force operator, and I'm just I'm the only one 707 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: being like, why, you know, why do we have a 708 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 1: former like guy who participant terrorism raids talking about a 709 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: B two butt, you know, And he's like, oh, President 710 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: Trump had no choice. That was the immediate reaction, you 711 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:54,840 Speaker 1: know that I'm watching over there. Yeah, and I was 712 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:56,840 Speaker 1: like this, this, and I was like, to the untrained, 713 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 1: year makes sense. But to somebody who you know, knows 714 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 1: a little bit, You're like, uh, dude, you know what 715 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 1: are you talking about? You don't know literally anything about 716 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 1: what's happening here, and you've got Sean Hannity beating his chest. 717 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: Apparently the coverage on CNN is equal. I just saw 718 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,359 Speaker 1: Tommy Veeder and some of the pod save guys be like, Hey, 719 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: could anyone on CNN just like not cheerlead war with Iran? 720 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 3: Even this is the one time they'll find their way 721 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 3: to being able to praise Trump. Yeah, I heard Fared 722 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 3: Zakario is supposed to be one of the intelligent people there, 723 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 3: being like, oh, I think Trump really tried for the diplomacy. 724 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 3: It's like, what part of murdering the negotiators makes you 725 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 3: feel like he really gave the diplomacy his full Try 726 00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 3: not to mention the fact he is the one who 727 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 3: withdrew from the original diplomatic deal that we were in 728 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 3: and was working successfully. Thank you very much, But I 729 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 3: think we should probably wrap this so we can get 730 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 3: it uploaded and get it out and watch what the 731 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 3: president has to say. One thing, I have a note here, 732 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 3: Ronnie and TV is saying no nuclear radiation is expected 733 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,240 Speaker 3: and all enriched uranium has been removed from nuclear facilities 734 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 3: in advance. That's according to Ronne and State TV. So anyway, 735 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 3: that's what they're putting out out there. Last thoughts from 736 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 3: you guys. You know, what do you think the present 737 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 3: is going to say tonight? What do you expect his remarks, 738 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 3: what do you expect the framing of his remarks to be, 739 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 3: and sort of you know, last thoughts on where you 740 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:14,959 Speaker 3: think we go from here. 741 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 1: I think he said he's going to say I had 742 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,760 Speaker 1: no choice. Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. 743 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:20,760 Speaker 2: As I've said. 744 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 1: Repeatedly, peace through peace, through strength, Iran, you should give 745 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: up now and we can make a deal. I think 746 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: that's large and obviously it's a fresh Yeah, it's going 747 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:30,719 Speaker 1: to be very. 748 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, and and the you know, the oh, now we 749 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 3: can make a deal diplomacy. Now what did his posts say? 750 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 3: It's like something about you know, praying, now's the time 751 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 3: piece as as we're bombing them. Okay, yeah, that makes 752 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 3: a lot of sense. Last thing, I'll say my final word, 753 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 3: because I really think this is so important soccer from 754 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 3: our looking at the polling and Emily, I know you 755 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 3: will see the same thing. I have never seen an 756 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 3: issue where it matters more how the issue is framed. Yes, 757 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 3: if you say, hey, we we got to bomb them 758 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 3: to keep them from getting a nuke. They're about to 759 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,880 Speaker 3: get a nuke, guess what you get a lot of 760 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 3: Americans who are like, oh, that sounds we got to 761 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:11,359 Speaker 3: do that. When the question was framed as should America 762 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 3: get involved in the war between Israel and Iran? Basically 763 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,799 Speaker 3: like this is something they're doing, people are like, hell, no, 764 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 3: why would we do that? And I'm sure if you 765 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 3: ask people, hey, should we do a regime change war 766 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 3: in Iran, they'd be like are you hot? Like no, 767 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 3: have you learned absolutely nothing? And so listen, we are 768 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 3: you know, we're doing all we can. Over here. Independent 769 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 3: media has much a larger, vastly larger footprint send it 770 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,880 Speaker 3: dead during the Iraq War. But I just I really 771 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 3: implore people to understand what is happening here. This is 772 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 3: not about a nuclear weapon. This is about a regime 773 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,360 Speaker 3: change war. And please make sure that you know whoever 774 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 3: you're talking to speak about it in those terms, because 775 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 3: that's what's really going on here, and that I know 776 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 3: the American people will not support. 777 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:57,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're exactly right. 778 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,200 Speaker 1: All we can hope is that it fails and somehow 779 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:02,439 Speaker 1: is stopped in his track. 780 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,760 Speaker 2: Bub I'm not optimistic tonight. 781 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 3: I'm really all right, guys.
