IRAN WAR DAY 17: Trump BEGS NATO Allies To Open Hormuz | America First Ep. 1658
Nicholas J. Fuentes argues the Trump administration, colluding with Israel since 2016 to scuttle the JCPOA, now faces a stalemate in Iran as NATO allies reject opening the Strait of Hormuz. He claims the "Canary Mission" blacklist and Palantir databases prove U.S. occupation, while Trump's failed coalition efforts and pivot to farm visas betray American sovereignty for neoconservative interests. Ultimately, Fuentes concludes that rising oil prices and economic ruin signal a catastrophic escalation requiring regime change in both Israel and the United States to end this "forever war."

People that are scrambling, trying to protect their ever-shrinking share of what they have are foolish.
It's all going.
It's all going away.
This country is being ripped apart and raped and looted.
We're being slowly poisoned and in some cases quickly murdered and assassinated.
And we're killing ourselves every day.
Inadvertently, with the kinds of things that we eat and breathe and drink and see.
People have got to start to radically begin to obey their conscience and tell the truth and do the right thing.
People have got to start to get courageous.
And this is the time for everybody to turn and look to God and to pray and to ask for strength and to ask for wisdom to get through this time and to transform and sanctify this country.
And the alternative is that there will be no country.
Is it really only as big as low gas prices?
Is it really only so big as bringing inflation and gas prices and the corporate tax rate back down?
It's not about waiting for someone to come in and change the policy and make it better.
It's a personal decision that we all have to make to become soldiers of Christ.

That we are different.

Palantir is an AI data analytics company.
They use artificial intelligence to look at vast amounts of data and create insights.
If the government has an amount of data which is kind of unimaginable, if you've got every phone call, every email, every transaction, every photograph of a license plate on the highway, satellite data, it's too much data for a bureaucracy to sift through.
Palantir comes in and interprets the data using algorithm, using artificial intelligence, using software to make vast amounts of data usable.
That's what they are.
And so many of the people that worked with Elon that came into the government through Doge worked with Palantir.
Now that Doge is finished, Palantir seems to be just getting started.
Thank you so much, everybody.

Everyone you know, your relationship to them, your tastes, your preferences, your habits, your whereabouts, your routines, your schedule, when you're asleep.

Because they voted for Kamala Harris.
People do not stab young girls on trains because they're born black.
People do not shoot Palestinians in the back of the head or cheer it on just because they're Jewish.
The people that do this are lost.
They have to be isolated and segregated out.
A new consensus must emerge.
Are you in favor of a society with meaning?
A society where life is sacred.
Where life has sanctity, where people's lives and their dignity and their integrity is respected?
Or are we going to live in a society that is a never-ending war between nihilistic tribes, warlords, savages, pagans?
I see an emerging consensus.
And I think that the mature people that actually love America, actually love our children, the people that recognize the division, the peril that we're in, we need to fortify a new consensus and rally the people of conscience, the people of decency, the people of humanity, the people of charity towards their fellow man,
against those that want to kill us, against those that laugh and celebrate when innocent people are harmed.
For any reason, for any ideological reason.
Against the people that are cruel, the people that are hateful.
And by that, I mean the people that are really cruel.
The people that say things you disagree with, not the people that are provocative, not the people that are sometimes angry, but the people that are really cruel and really evil.
It's Christianity and Christ.
So different from the other religions is that our religion is based on the bearing of suffering for the sake of even those that persecute us.
An overflowing of love.
An overflowing of self-giving love.
So much that it cannot be contained.
An unconditional, absolute standard of love for all of God's children, even those that are misguided, even those that persecute us, even the most heinous among us.
Mission is an Israeli-funded blacklist, which, since July 2025, has been confirmed to be used by the Trump administration to target students, professors, and professionals who oppose Israel and reside in the United States.
This idea is part of an initiative created by the Heritage Foundation, the same group responsible for the infamous Project 2025.
In their initiative, titled Project Esther, they state that students participating in pro-Palestinian protests and activism are supporting Hamas, a group that the United States designates as a foreign terrorist organization.
Therefore, pro-Palestinian students are considered to be supporting terrorism and are subject to the revocation of visas, frozen bank accounts, asset seizures, and the denial of basic constitutional rights.
In effect, the Canary mission serves as a means to circumvent constitutional protections, allowing the federal government to engage in intelligence gathering activities that would otherwise be considered unlawful.
But the Canary mission is not alone.
Palantir, another company closely aligned with the state of Israel, uses AI-driven analytics to maintain private databases on U.S. citizens and currently works with four federal agencies.
While government contracting with the private sector is long-standing, the prominent influence of Jewish groups within these increasingly powerful organizations warrants careful examination.
I renew the call for all able-bodied young American men, all of our elite human capital, all of our geniuses, warriors, intelligent people to dedicate themselves to American sovereignty and independence as Christians, as Americans, as white people, as citizens of the United States.
And anybody that settles for anything less is just as much of an enemy.
I would actually consider them worse than our oppressors.
So on Independence Day, it's important to reflect on the fact that we are an occupied nation.
Now, just like then, we're being ruled by a small country across an ocean, serving itself at our expense.
And as long as that is the case, I will always be obsessed with that.
As long as that is the case, I will always be speaking out against that and fighting against that.
And I will always be anchored, understanding that that is the fundamental struggle.
As long as our presidents have to kiss the wall in Israel and wear a small hat, as long as they have to say that we want to make Israel great again and they're the greatest country ever, and I will never be okay with that.
Ever.
And it doesn't matter what they offer me or us.
It doesn't matter how they might try to placate us or appease our interests, the concessions they'll make.
Barack Obama created the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, the JCPOA, or the Iranian nuclear deal.
And Barack Obama brought together China, Russia, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States and the European Union to enforce a nuclear deal that restricts Iran's enrichment of uranium.
The early talks were conducted in secret, and the Israelis were furious, furious about this.
They hated Obama.
Netanyahu went to a joint session of Congress and gave a speech in defiance of the American president and its nuclear deal, and Congress gave 37 standing ovations.
This is the background of Trump's first election.

Trump gets elected with the help of the Israelis.
You don't believe me?
There's a whole article about it.
It's an excerpt from James Bamford's book, Spy Fail.
It goes into great detail about the hidden collusion in the 2016 election.
It wasn't Trump and Russia.
It was Trump and Israel.
And why was Israel so hell-bent on getting a Republican elected in 2016?
In 2018, Donald Trump declares the IRGC, the Revolutionary Guard, which is the military of the regime, a terrorist group.
Green likes that group for sanctions, for attacks.
Now the United States is in a shadow war with Iran.
It culminates by January 2020 in the assassination of Qasim Suleimani.
Suleimani was the architect of the axis of resistance.
Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, Suleimani built all of it.
Are you starting to see Obama had this solved?
He made the deal.
The Israelis hated him for it.
They colluded with Trump to get him elected so that Trump would do maximum pressure and create a ladder of escalation, pulling us out of the deal, declaring the IRGC terrorists, then killing its leader, putting sanctions on the regime.
This is a war that started a long time ago, that Trump made hot in 2018 and has been going on for seven years.
People that are scrambling, trying to protect their ever-shrinking share of what they have are foolish.
It's all going.

Very excited to be back here with you tonight on Monday.
We have a lot to talk about tonight, lots to get into.
Big show.
Our featured story tonight.
We're back in Iran.
Day 17.
We are halfway through the third week.
Hard to believe.
Already through the halfway through our third week in a war with Iran.
They said initially it would be four days, maybe four weeks.
We've been getting mixed signals the entire time.
Where's it going to go?
Are we going to escalate?
Are we going to withdraw?
There is still no end in sight in the war.
And as the war drags on, the biggest problem, as we've been discussing for the past couple of weeks, is that Iran has completely closed the Strait of Hormuz, and there is no way to get it open.
Now, there's some relief on this front.
These have been some of the developments of the past weekend.
Iran has actually allowed some allied shipping containers or tankers through the strait, which has actually eased some of the upward pressure on crude oil.
So it seems that at least for now, oil prices are stabilizing.
That being said, it's still largely closed.
Now, the big development from this weekend, and I don't know how many of you have paid close attention to some of the chatter, but it has been something.
So we talked last week, I believe on Friday, about Trump's gambit at Karg Island.
He launched a massive airstrike against military assets on Karg Island in the Persian Gulf.
It's an Iranian island off the coast of Iran, and it is critical and essential because this is where 90% of Iran's oil is ultimately exported.
It gets piped out or shipped out via pipeline from Iran's coast to the island where the super tankers and very large ships load it up on board and then take it out to China and other countries.
So Trump bombed that island very hard last week.
And it seems like maybe the play, haven't seen anything yet, but maybe the play is to invade that island and seize Iran's oil infrastructure.
There's been a lot of talk about that.
I believe it was officially reported in Axios this weekend that that might happen.
However, for now, and this is the big story for tonight, this is our major development.
Trump is trying to get an international coalition together to open up the strait by force.
And we discussed this also on Friday, that it seems the Pentagon and the State Department and the White House, it seems that the big operation that they're really into, it's a form of denial, is they really believe they're going to pry the Strait of Hormuz back open.
Iran has effectively shut it down with missiles and as of Wednesday, potentially mines, undersea mines, that will detect any commercial or military vessels and blow them up.
And the idea is that Trump will go in with the U.S. Navy, maybe an aircraft carrier, and they will somehow, I don't know how you do this, but they're somehow going to open it up by force by preventing Iran from launching missiles or laying mines.
Again, I don't know exactly how that's even going to work.
Now, that was the idea on Friday that they're going to maybe invade Iran's coastline with 5,000 Marines at the Strait.
Once they do that, or maybe even before that, they make some play for Karg Island, which is actually inside the Strait.
The big pitch this weekend, Trump says he wants to get an international coalition of other countries to actually join the war, provide their naval assets, and with the United States, launch a joint operation to open up the strait.
And it's been pretty comical.
Trump said over the weekend that there was an international coalition.
He said effectively, we're not going to do all the heavy lifting.
We're not going to shoulder the entire burden.
Of course, the closure of the strait is affecting everybody, and it's hurting some more than others.
He said, so anybody that is affected by this, maybe Japan, maybe Europe, Australia, they need to send their Navy and they need to share in the cost.
They need to share.
They need to be stakeholders in the conflict and they need to volunteer and donate some of their military assets to assist the United States in this totally insane operation to force the strait back open.
What is amusing is that nobody is biting on this.
Not a single country.
And almost as quickly as Trump announced that there was an international coalition, and the way that he said it, it sounded like it was a done deal.
Sounded like it already happened.
He said, well, we have this coalition.
They're going to come in and help us.
And they have to because they're being affected by it.
So they need to shoulder the burden too.
Well, as soon as he said that, Japan came out and said, we're not helping.
Australia came out and said, we're not helping.
Germany, Poland, France, Italy have all come out, the European Union, and they have all said, we want nothing to do with this.
This is not our war.
We're not helping.
We're not part of the international coalition.
It's just not going to happen.
So where does that leave us as of Monday?
Well, we're in basically the same place today as we were last Monday and the Monday before that, which is we have plunged ourselves into this conflict.
Predictably and inevitably, Iran has closed the strait.
It has turned into an attritional war, which as we've discussed many times now, has to do with the economics of manufacturing drones and missiles and the interceptors that shoot them down.
It has to do with Iran's ability not just to survive as a regime, but also to launch missile strikes at the Gulf and at the Persian Gulf, the Gulf nations and their territory, but also the waterways, in particular the Strait of Hormuz.
And the United States is now completely unable to extricate themselves from the conflict without either rapidly escalating and bringing boots on the ground, most likely, or withdrawing, losing face in a shameful humiliation and handing Iran a strategic victory, after which the situation only rolls on.
Even with a withdrawal, it just keeps going.
And we probably revisit Iran at a later date.
We probably come back there, I would assume, after the midterm elections.
And then we do option number one, which is a form of a ground invasion.
U.S. assets, U.S. boots on the ground, whether it's mercenaries, whether it is NGOs from the State Department, intelligence agencies.
Trump plunged not just the White House and the government and our country into this war, but he plunged the entire world into the war without any plan or an exit strategy.
And now this kind of ham-fisted, weak, last-ditch effort, they're going to send the military to pride back open.
It seems to have absolutely zero buy-in from any one of our allies, which is, it just gets better and better.
So we'll talk all about that.
That'll be our main story.
We're also going to talk tonight about Trump's defense of Mark Levin.
Mark Levin, just when you thought it doesn't get any better, and it's gotten pretty good.
I mean, I've really gotten a kick out of it.
I know I shouldn't because a lot of people are dying, obviously, and it is ruinous and catastrophic.
It's in a way very heartbreaking that Trump is destroying his legacy and his movement like this.
We all realize that for one time or another, we've been living a lie in this movement.
Our aspirations and hopes have been misplaced.
So in a way, it's very sad.
But as you know, for a long time, I told you that this is exactly how it works and this is how it would play out.
And I predicted a lot of what is happening.
And so it's gotten very good from that point of view.
I guess you could say it's getting very bad.
And for me, from the point of view of being vindicated, it's gotten very good.
And with each passing week, it just gets more and more outrageous.
Last week, you have Laurel Loomer, and I'm sure we'll talk about this maybe tomorrow or later in the week.
Laurel Loomer is saying that she referred Tucker Carlson to the Justice Department.
Laurel Loomer, who is one of the absolute worst human beings alive, she's going to get Tucker Carlson sent to jail.
Now, we don't know if that's true.
He could be making that up.
Who knows?
But you have things like that happening, and you have Rubio admitting Israel dragged us into a war with Iran.
And you have Trump saying whether we end the war is going to be a mutual decision with Israel.
So it's like every day, every day it gets better.
Every day it's something new.
Well, yesterday, this has got to be the cherry on top.
This one, what even is there left to say?
That's all I had to say about it this morning on Twitter.
I said, what even is there left to say?
Yesterday, Trump goes on another one of his infamous truth social screeds.
It used to be funny.
He used to be on Twitter and it was 140 characters and it was pithy and it was short.
They have a saying, brevity is the soul of wit.
So these were short and punchy and pithy and staccato.
And now he goes on true social and it's that crying wojack.
You know, look at my, look at my 5,000 word.
Look at my 10,000 word true social post, bitching and crying and moaning about Russia, Russia, Russia, the radical left, shifty shit, you know, all this kind of stuff.
It's too much.
It's too much.
It's not good anymore.
So he does another one of these infamous truth social screeds.
And this one is he is going to the mat for Mark Levin.
And Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro have been in this war against everybody that's against the war in Iran.
Piers Morgan and Tucker Carlson and Megan Kelly and Candace Owens and Dave Smith.
Shapiro and Levin have been on like a Jewish crusade against all these people every day.
The most, what even is there to say?
It's just so contemptuous, so hostile, vulgar.
These are some of the most hateful people that are walking among us today, Mark Levin and Shapiro.
Every day on their show, on Twitter, like Trump, it's a screed about Piers Morgan and he's now a Nazi and an anti-Semite and a horrible human being.
And Megan Kelly, she's a coward and an anti-Semite and a terrible human being.
And Tucker Carlson, he's a Muslim and an anti-Semite and a Nazi and he's getting Jews killed and blah, blah.
So there's a civil war going on on Twitter.
It's very one-sided.
I don't know anyone that's on the side of Levin and Shapiro, which is disturbing.
So it's very one-sided.
Everybody's sick of these people.
Everybody recognizes at this point what they are.
Trump weighs into the battle on truth over the weekend with a full-throated defense of Levin.
And he says, in a word, that Mark Levin is actually the standard bearer of MAGA.
That if you're attacking Mark Levin, you're not MAGA.
Mark Levin is like a pro-war, Israel-first, psycho-Jew.
He's not even that right-wing.
He was at the Republican Jewish Coalition screaming about Nazis and Klansmen on the right and communists and Islamo-Nazis on the left.
The guy's not even, as we know, he is not a populist.
He's not a nationalist.
He is a prototypical Ziocon, prototypical Israel-first Zionist Jew.
And Trump says, now, if you got a problem with Mark Levin, well, you got a problem with Trump and you're not MAGA.
And that is actually the America-first position.
He goes further and says that bombing Iran is MAGA.
And who has the credibility?
Who gets to determine these things?
Well, Trump himself.
Trump says, I am MAGA, not them.
It's me.
And I'm bombing Iran.
So if I'm MAGA and I'm bombing Iran, then MAGA is bombing Iran, right?
By the transitive property.
I'm MAGA.
I'm bombing Iran.
So MAGA equals bombing Iran, which is true.
And a lot of people don't want to admit this.
We're going to get into that.
You might argue, what's making America great again about bombing Iran?
But then you would be making the error of assuming that MAGA was ever about an idea or a principle or the country.
MAGA was always a farce.
It didn't exist.
It was vaporware.
It's true.
Sadly and horribly, it was always bound up with the cult of personality of Trump.
And for a lot of people, this is the last step they need to take.
It is him.
He is the problem.
Because you know what?
He's right.
When he says, I'm MAGA, can anyone argue otherwise?
He is MAGA.
He invented this hat.
That's his slogan for 30 years.
Even before he ran for office, he was saying MAGA.
He was saying make America great again.
No one can deny, of course, he is MAGA.
Of course, he is the nucleus of this movement.
And so people hear him say, well, I'm MAGA and bombing Iran is MAGA.
And they go, well, but that isn't America First, but that isn't a nationalist policy.
And this is when you need to realize it's not his advisors.
It's not his personnel.
It's not the bad advice or whatever.
It's him.
He's the problem.
The buck stops with him.
He's the president.
He's the movement.
And if there ever were principles or promises, he's betrayed all of them.
And that is what is left.
All these people that are still trusting the plan, Republicans, MAGA supporters, this is what is left.
Trump, Mark Levin, Laurel Loomer, Randy Fine, and your war with Iran.
That's what you got.
And I know a lot of people are not happy about that.
And that's why they're coping.
And they're saying, well, you know, there's actually a five-dimensional plan or, you know, we need to convince Trump otherwise.
There's people working on the inside.
People are saying all these things.
He needs to go.
I really believe that he needs to be impeached under the Democrats.
And I don't even want him to be removed from office because I don't want Vance to become president either.
I want Vance to burn down with all of it.
But it just needs to be shut down.
This guy is totally insane.
It's becoming more apparent all the time.
We'll actually talk a little bit about that in a moment.
And I'm done.
I'm fully done with it.
Whatever warm feelings I had toward President Trump are dead gone after the past three weeks.
All these years, everything that we've been through, all the fighting, 10 years, and whatever shred of charity I had or goodwill towards this movement, or people say there's still a piece of my heart that's invested in this.
It's done.
It's done after all this, obviously.
So that's going to be our show.

Okay, with that out of the way, we're going to dive in.
I also wanted to just say right before we move on, there's a couple of things here.
There hasn't been anything really big that has happened this weekend, but it's a few small things that I just wanted to touch on.
First of all, so I kind of mentioned this a moment ago.
Did you guys watch the press conference with Trump?
I think it was this afternoon.
I'm a little mixed up.
My sleep schedule's off this week.
I don't know if it was yesterday or today, but Trump does a press conference today.
See, this is what I'm talking about.
And the press conference is totally insane.
He's contradicting himself in every other sentence.
We have this coalition together.
Actually, no, we don't.
You know, where I made the decision to go to war with Iran, and it's my decision, but also I was forced into doing it and I didn't want to do it.
And we're winning, but also it's going on forever.
And then there was one moment where he said, I got a call from a former president.
Did you see this?
He goes, actually, a former president called me and I don't even want to say who it is because I don't want to get him in trouble.
He goes, and that president told me that they wish they were doing what I did, meaning going to war with Iran.
He said, a former president called me up and said, they wish that they did what I'm doing right now, but I can't tell you who it is.
And people said, well, who is it?
Oh, I can't say.
Then the offices of every remaining American president that's alive, which I guess is Bill Clinton, George Bush, Obama, Biden, they all said, nope, wasn't us.
And it feels like maybe this is just me.
You tell me.
We all know that Trump is a bullshitter.
We all made our peace with that a long time ago.
And he said, we have the biggest crowds, and I have the biggest inauguration crowd.
And, you know, he lied about a lot of things, a lot of BS.
And we all made our peace with that.
We all kind of coped with that in our own way.
I remember Scott Adams used to say, well, he's a bullshitter, but he's not a liar.
Maybe we were idiots.
Maybe we were idiots.
Saying that out loud, you're like, yeah, that's the same thing.
You know, bullshitters are liars.
Bullshitting is a form of lying.
You're a liar, right?
People used to say, well, he's a bullshitter, but he's not a liar.
And those aren't the same thing.
Yes, he talks himself up and lies frequently, but he's not a liar.
And you go, well, he's saying things that he knows are not true.
So those are lies that makes him a liar.
And he does it all the time.
So he's a serial, habitual, compulsive liar.
Maybe we just didn't mind because we didn't think the lies were important back then.
If he said my inauguration crowd was the biggest ever, and it really wasn't, you would say, well, okay, who cares?
It's not really that big of a deal.
But it has just gone into overdrive in the past few weeks, like the situation with that school that was blown up in Tehran.
In the opening salvo, those initial strikes against Iran, there was a, I think it was a grade school, a primary school.
160 children were eliminated.
I think it was girls, actually, segregated schools.
It was 160 girls were killed in a U.S.-Israeli strike.
And there's been a lot of reporting about this, what a horrible atrocity it is.
And when Trump was asked about it last week, he literally just compulsively lied and said, oh, that was an Iranian missile.
And people said that was a Tomahawk missile.
Only we have those.
And he goes, well, everybody has tomahawks.
Well, that's not really true.
So he's just making stuff up.
Well, Iran, one of their projectiles fell out of the sky and hit the school.
Oh, is it Tomahawk?
Well, they have tomahawks too.
And then ultimately, he was pressed on it.
They said, well, your own intelligence agencies have said it was a U.S. strike.
And he goes, yeah, well, I don't know.
I mean, someone told me that, and maybe that's true.
And I don't really know.
Okay, so you just made that up.
Like now you're admitting.
So now you're just admitting you just made that up.
Like we all knew you made it up because it was obvious.
We had all the information in advance.
We knew that it was a tomahawk missile launched by the U.S.
The blood is on the hands of the United States.
And we knew you made it up.
Anyone that still trusts this man, anybody that still believes a word that comes out of his mouth might have said, oh, well, you know, it's part of the plan.
It's five-dimensional chess.
QAnon has some intel.
It was the Clintons that dropped the missile or something.
But then Trump basically admitted, oh, yeah, I made it up.
I got asked a question.
I made it up.
He got asked today, how about those 5,000 Marines that you just deployed to the Persian Gulf?
He goes, well, you're really obnoxious.
Next question.
Sending 5,000 Marines to the Persian Gulf.
Hey, what's that all about?
You're obnoxious.
You're fake news.
Next question.
Okay, we actually need to know why there's 5,000 Marines going there.
And then you get the statement about the former president.
Well, some president called me and told me, I wish I did it.
I can't tell you who it is.
Okay, so you just made that up too.
And it's just really bad now in the past three weeks.
They're just making all of it up as they go along.
Did they know Iran would close the Strait of Hormuz?
We don't know.
Pete Hegset says, of course we knew that.
But then other officials have leaked to the Washington Post and others.
No, they didn't.
People told Trump that they would close the Strait of Hormuz, but he had this gut feeling that maybe for some reason they wouldn't.
And we don't know, again, what the plan was.
There's this reporting that Trump believed that he would topple the government.
Now every other day, well, it's going to be a long war.
It's going to be a short war.
We're far from done and we're going to hit them harder than ever.
We're getting ready to wrap it up.
We're almost done.
We actually finished the job.
Every press release, every press conference, every statement contradicts something.
It used to be a couple of weeks ago from the day before.
Now it's like within the same interview, within the same sentence.
So I saw that.
And then, okay, this was the other story from the weekend, which I saw.
There was a report that the United States is preparing to expand the number of visas for migrant workers to address a labor shortage.
So now, I guess this is Department of Labor, which handles this.
Maybe it's Department of Labor.
Maybe it's DHS.
I forget which department actually has jurisdiction over this.
But the Trump administration is now looking at giving thousands more farm visas.
These are particular visas for migrant farm workers to illegal aliens to address the labor shortage.
So it just gets better and better.
We covered this, I think, Monday last week, exactly a week ago, that at the South Florida Doral retreat of all the House Republicans, they gathered there to talk about the midterms.
And the Republicans are told by Mike Johnson and Donald Trump and the deputy chief of staff, James Blair, the House, every House Republican is getting this message from the top down.
They're being told we're done with mass deportations.
We're not going to talk about it.
We're not going to mention it.
We're going to pivot.
And actually, we're now going to talk about how we're only deporting criminal illegal aliens.
And Mike Johnson said we're recalibrating.
We're shifting gears.
We have this great opportunity to basically stop what we're doing and do something else, which, for those that don't know, this is the Obama-era deportation policy.
And I got it confirmed by somebody in Homeland Security.
Trump administration is not doing raids, patrols.
They are now sticking to they're only going to arrest people that have a prior criminal record.
So illegal aliens that happen to be picked up for murder or a DUI or rape or whatever, those people are going to be booked in the jail and then handed over to ICE.
And those are the only people that are going to be deported.
There's not going to be any raids at job sites.
There's not going to be any raids in neighborhoods.
They're not going to be marching down the streets anymore.
It is confirmed that's done.
That was last week.
Now this week, we wake up to the news.
I believe it was Saturday or Sunday.
Actually, it's going in the opposite direction.
No mass deportations.
And now we're going to get thousands of migrant farm workers.
They're going to get visas.
And once you do that, what do you think that incentivizes?
By the way, it's bad enough as it is.
They cancel the mass deportations because we're too busy bombing Iran for Israel.
Now we're going to bring in additional illegal aliens under a new visa program or an expansion of an existing program.
And what that will do as a knock-on effect is every wannabe, every aspirational illegal immigrant who's living in Mexico or Central and South America, they're going to see that and say, we should try to move to the United States.
The U.S. is open for business.
Turns out they're not deporting people to El Salvador or Libya anymore.
Turns out they're actually giving visas for farmers again.
If Trump collapses the government there, I think you're going to get a lot of Cuban refugees, perhaps.
So it's going in the wrong.
We're 15 months in.
It's totally unsatisfactory.
They're not doing anything they promised to do.
And not only have they stopped and just shut it down to serve Israel, but we're actually now going in the wrong direction.
And I look at the people that defend this administration, and I seriously wonder just what is the argument anymore.
Who else is out there?
Is there anyone out there that still believes in this administration that is, let's say, under the age of 50?
Important caveat, because I know there's a lot of Fox News boomers, and that's what it is.
They're watching Fox News every night.
They're watching Jesse Waters.
And for them, everything's going great.
It's the greatest.
Trump shut down the greatest economy to save the world by preventing Iran from getting a nuke.
But for everybody else that lives in reality, I don't even know what the argument is.
And I've seen a lot of the number one plan trusters, they've come my way.
People that thought they were so clever, they thought they were so smart.
People, I saw somebody say on Twitter, well, I had information in 2024 that Trump was going to be really good.
And now I have information that he isn't.
Yeah, it's called You Were Lied To Because You Are Stupid.
That's what that's called.
I saw one of the biggest plan trusters on Twitter.
I'm not going to name his name.
We don't need to give him any attention.
But I saw one of the big plan trusters who was so cocky, such a big plan truster, Trump cultist.
Oh, the third worldist, they don't get it.
You're just obsessed with Israel.
All that is overblown.
Bap is right about everything.
You know, a lot of this kind of content, 2024, 2025, now all of a sudden, the same guy is a Trump hater and goes, well, but, you know, it's okay because during the election, I was talking to people.
I knew people that were going to be in the admin.
I had information.
I knew it was going to be good.
So I have no regrets.
Hindsight's only 2020 because back then I had assurances.
Now I know better.
Yeah, it's called they lied to you, stupid.
Everybody knows people in the administration if you're in politics.
And let me clue you in on a little, this is going to be a little bit of a rant here, and then we'll get on into the news, but let me clue you in because you, the listener at home, you need to know this.
You have a regular job, let's say.
Maybe you're a mother of a few children.
Maybe you're a dad that you have a normie job.
Maybe you're a lawyer.
Maybe you're a college student.
Maybe you have no interface with politics.
Let me explain to you how this works.
It is all a patronage network.
What is patronage?
I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine.
People that are higher up in the food chain, people that are higher up in the pyramid, they reach down to the college Republicans, to the lowly interns, to the very, very junior level bureaucrats or staffers, people that are LARPing like they're in West Wing or House of Cards.
And they trade and they say, well, I will give you access.
I will give you information.
I will give you a job.
I will give you a sinecure if you're loyal to me, if you work for me, if you're my guy.
And in some cases, the benefits that are conferred by the junior level people, well, let's just say it's all kinds of benefits, but sometimes it's not raunchy, sometimes it's professional.
This is how it works.
Now, every influencer that you follow, literally every influencer, with the exception of me, and I can say this because, as you know, I am outside the system.
I'm radioactive.
Nobody wants to touch me with the 10-foot poll.
I'm the nigger of politics.
So I am totally outside the patronage system.
I'm lucky if they let me in through the back door.
Nobody wants to be seen with me.
I have to drink through a separate water fountain.
I have to use the outhouse.
This is how I'm treated.
So let me tell you how it works for everybody else.
All these influencers that sold you Trumpism in 24 and 25, all these people that are telling you, trust the plan.
No, really, it's going to be great.
Our guys are going to be in charge.
The posters are in control.
All these people, they are all part of this patronage network.
Why did they think Trumpism was going to be successful?
Well, some of them were literally being paid.
Some of them, many of them were literally being paid to say that under the table.
And maybe they weren't being paid to say vote for Trump because that's electioneering, but they were being paid to say other things like, you know, we have to vote Republican or I don't know, you know, things that are, it depends on the exact wording of it, how it's regulated.
And then others, they have contacts, connections in DC.
This guy's going to get in the admin, then he's going to help me out.
You know, he's going to introduce me to this guy.
He's going to get me a job.
I'm going to get my guys in the admin.
My guy is going to be in the admin.
This guy.
And it's basically just a giant circle jerk in DC of people exaggerating their own importance, exaggerating what they're able to do, how much money they make, how important they are, and using that as a form of currency to get allegiance or favors or whatever.
And so it's people like that.
And they all think they're oh, so special, the most specialist intern on the hill.
Well, I've got a guy who in the admin, I'm really running the government.
My guy has all this influence.
And so you basically just have all these people that think that they're running the show.
Like they really believe the posters were in control, that the Groyper or the Baptist or whoever that's running the White House Twitter account, they think that guy, by virtue of him tweeting about Heritage Americans, that it's Groypers that are making all the decisions.
But it isn't.
It isn't.
And this is why I said, and it's actually a nice segue.
I tweeted this in October 2025.
I said, for all these people on Twitter, like a Jack Pasobic, like AF Post, like all these people, a captive dream or whoever, John Goyle, Patrick Casey, all these people that are out there tweeting all the time about it's our guys in the admin.
Trump is our guy.
This is a right-wing administration.
I'm a plan truster.
They're doing so much.
They really are.
They're tweeting all day, every day.
They're so concerned.
They're doing videos and they're, you know, they're really busting their asses.
As much as they're doing to support this administration and prop it up, they are outranked and outflanked at every turn, every corner, all the time, by a Jew, by a Zionist, by a donor, like Laura Loomer, like Miriam Adelson, like Lindsey Graham, who's not even a Jew, he's just a neocon, like Randy Fine.
So you have all these people.
I'm trying to paint a picture for you.
You have all these youngish guys, goyish guys on Twitter, and they come from an ordinary walk of life.
They're a college kid.
They're a father of three.
They are pastor at a church.
They started a sub stack after COVID and got a little following.
They got into group chat with a 100,000 follower account.
You have all these goyish type people, and they think they are the movement.
I'm a part of something bigger.
They're all selling you Trumpism because they think they're stakeholders in the MAGA movement.
I've talked to these people and they're telling me it's going really well.
My guy in the admin says it's going great and he's optimistic that things are going to happen for us.
And at every turn, literally every step, if those people want mass deportations to be stepped up, if those people want E-Verify, if those people want whatever, it will be vetoed by Laura Loomer.
Laura Loomer, who is probably a spy, I would imagine.
She's got some very bizarre connections.
If Laura Loomer marches her ass into the White House and pounds on the president's desk, which she apparently can do, she will get everybody fired like that.
Perfect example.
Last year, in the buildup to the 12-day war with Iran, I remember Tucker and Kurt Mills from American Conservative and all these people, they were so confident that we weren't going to bomb Iran.
Why?
Because all their friends were in the Defense Department, now the Department of War.
All their guys, like Dan Caldwell and his buddies, they were in the National Security Council.
Joe Kent was the National Terrorism Whatever.
And Dan Caldwell and his little crew, they were in Pete Hegset's office, and so-and-so was in the NSC.
And Carrilla was out at CENTCOM in the summer.
And so they all really thought, well, we've got a cadre of our guys.
We've got a cadre of based, restrained America firsters in the Pentagon, and it's different this time.
And they're going to shut it down.
The posters are in control.
Israel's not going to tell us what to do.
And you know what happened?
I'm not even exaggerating.
Laura Loomer called up Trump and said, you need to fire all these people.
And he just did.
Laura Loomer, and people like her, but she was the face of it.
You need to fire these people.
You need to fire Dan Caldwell.
He's a very bad anti-Semite.
He's with Tucker and they don't want a war with Iran.
Literally, she calls up the White House.
All your people in the admin, all these based guys that are going to run the admin.
Laura Loomer picks up the phone, presses one.
She's got Trump on speed dial.
Fire all those America first people.
It will be done.
Yes, ma'am.
Fired immediately.
War with Iran guaranteed the next month.
That's how it works.
Now, this is a story from this weekend.
So today, and you know, very relevant, Trump goes on True Social.
This is our first story.
And Trump weighs in on the MAGA civil war.
There's this big, as you know, ongoing civil war within the MAGA movement over the issue of Israel.
And gradually it's drawn everybody in.
And now Piers Morgan is at war with Ben Shapiro.
And Megan Kelly is saying that Mark Levin has a micropenis.
And Ben Shapiro is calling out Dave Smith on the show.
And Candace Owens is just bringing the receipts and ratio and Jeremy Boring and Shapiro and all these people.
Full-fledged civil war.
And finally, Trump weighs in.
Now, keep in mind what I just told you.
And this is what he wrote.
So for the past several weeks, Mark Levin, actually months, Mark Levin, who is one of the most hateful, disgusting, filthy, odious commentators in America.
This is a man whose heart has clearly been hardened by God.
This is a man that doesn't know Christ, never knew Christ, and therefore doesn't know God.
And he has become a bitter and nasty and mean, evil, hateful old man.
And if you go on his Twitter every day, it's just venom.
It's pure venom, pure hatred, vitriol.
He hates Tucker.
He hates Megan Kelly.
He hates Candace Owens.
This one is stupid.
This one's an idiot.
This one is evil.
This one's terrible.
And all of it in favor of a war with Iran.
We need to bomb Iran.
We need to slaughter those people.
You need to just go to war with Iran.
This has been his MO for his whole career, but he's just gone into overdrive.
The cube is activated, okay?
The Saturn storm, the hexagonal storm on Saturn is accelerating and Mark Levin is getting more crazy.
Laura Loomer is getting more crazy.
She's repeating herself even more.
She's going somehow even more psychotic than before.
Trump weighs in on all this.
This is what he had to say on True Social.
Full-throated defense of Mark Levin basically says, if you don't like Levin, you're not MAGA.
This is the tweet or the post.
It says, quote, this is from Trump.
He writes, Mark Levin, a truly great American patriot, is somewhat under siege by other people with far less intellect, capability, and love for our country.
Mark is tough, strong, and brilliant, hence the nickname, the great one.
Conceived by our MAGA friend, the wonderful Sean Hannity, after years of dealing with Mark in legal, media, and other capacities.
So the glaze is just diabolical.
Mark Levin is brilliant.
He's amazing.
He's awesome.
And how do I know that?
Because Sean Hannity has, oh, even better, because Sean Hannity said so.
Well, he's a great judge of character.
Mark would often do Sean's show speaking as a lawyer.
And Sean realized then, as did others, that he was special.
Mark Levin was not looking to do television, radio, or anything else, but he was drafted by very smart people who understood that there are few like him.
He is a true conservative and intellect, far smarter than those who criticize him.
But above all, he is a man of great wisdom and common sense who truly loves our country.
When you hear others unfairly attack Mark, remember they are jealous and angry human beings whose sway is much less than the public understands and will, now that they know where I stand, rapidly diminish.
Other than his wonderful wife and family, Mark Levin only cares and wants one thing, greatness and success for America.
Those that speak ill of Mark will quickly fall by the wayside, as do the people whose ideas, policies, and footings are not sound.
They are not MAGA.
I am.
And MAGA includes not allowing Iran, a sick, demented, and violent terrorist regime, to have a nuclear weapon to blow up the United States of America, the Middle East, and the rest of the world.
MAGA is about stopping them cold.
And that is exactly what we are doing.
God bless our great military, which I have rebuilt since the beginning of my first term to achieve everlasting peace through strength.
Hey, Aiden from AF Post, Patrick Casey, John Doyle, Captive Dreamer, Jack Pesobic, Andrew Isker.
Hey, fat ass.
Hey, fat ass loser whose project is exploding and failing everywhere.
Hey, guys.
Hey, Chris Ruffo, Lomez.
Who else?
Who else was, tell me, who else was a plan truster?
Hey, Tucker.
Hey, Tucker, who spoke at the RNC and encouraged everybody to vote for Trump.
Hey, guys, just checking in.
Are you winning?
Are we winning?
Are we bored with winning yet?
Do we feel like we're getting a real victory?
Are you bored with winning?
Is it everything you thought of and more?
Is this our golden age?
How many words was that?
Was that a thousand words?
Literally glazing and doing tricks on it, doing somersaults and bat flips and handstands on top of Mark Levin while we are in a war with Iran, after we shut down mass deportations and we opened up H-1A visas for migrant farm workers.
Are you winning yet?
Board with the winning?
Take the date, March 17, 2026.
This is what it means to be MAGA.
If you are not on board with Mark Levin, if you are not on board with a war with Iran, if you don't think that Mark Levin's only care in the world is America rather than Israel, well, you're not part of the MAGA movement.
And I will add, because there's something else here.
So this is obviously just a humiliation ritual at this point.
And I think that gets overused.
These days, everything's a humiliation ritual.
And maybe everything is.
You know, lately it feels that way, doesn't it?
But if there ever was a ritualistic humiliation, this would be it.
President Trump of the MAGA America First movement, not only giving Israel everything they want, but then also caping for them on Twitter, caping for them on True Social, defending them like this.
Literal full-throat, deep-throated defense of Mark.
He's a genius.
He's so brave.
He only cares about America.
He's so amazing.
He's different.
He's not like the others.
If there ever was a ritualistic humiliation, this would be it.
And it's obviously a betrayal of everything that he ran on.
And why is that?
Because Mark Levin is a neocon.
Mark Levin is a Jew first, Israel first neocon.
He's not a Christian.
He doesn't have any love in his heart.
He's not an American.
He's not an American patriot.
He doesn't care about America.
He is a Jew.
He is a Jewish partisan.
He only cares about the state of world Jewry.
He only cares about his fellow Jews.
And he only cares about Israel.
And to that end, he has infiltrated America.
He has blended in.
He pretends to be a white person, pretends to be a white rock rib conservative, constitutionalist, whatever.
It is a great subversion to trick the Goyim, trick white people into dying and fighting and giving our money and our efforts in defense of Israel.
That's what this is.
And Trumpism was supposed to be a repudiation of all of that.
That's what MAGA is.
That's what America First is.
How do we make our country great again as opposed to other countries like Israel?
We have to put America first.
And now the only people left in the camp, in the MAGA world, it's Lumer, Randy Fine, Lindsey Graham, Mark Levin.
And not only are those the only people left, but now they are jealously guarding Mar-a-Lago.
No one else is allowed in unless you defer to Mark Levin.
Now it's not like you got to be comfortable in the coalition, because that is, I think, how people used to think about it is, well, we, the white people or the Catholics or the Christians or the conservatives, or people thought that, you know, maybe we who are not in love with Lumer and Levin and Randy Fine, maybe we could share the big tent with them.
Maybe they're bringing something to the table.
Maybe they're part of a coalition and maybe it's strange bedfellows and maybe there's some friction at times, but we don't have to be best good friends and we're all in favor of Trump and Trump is in favor of MAGA.
I think that's what a lot of people thought.
Now it's been made clear.
No, that is not how this works at all.
It's not going to be no partnership of equals, nothing close to it.
Mark Levin is not your peer.
He is your boss.
If you are MAGA, and I don't know who is still MAGA, if you are MAGA, Mark Levin and Laura Loomer and Randy Fine and Miriam Adelson and Larry Fink and Ronald Lauder, they are not your peers.
They are not your colleagues.
They are not your allies.
They are not your partners.
They are your boss.
They are in charge.
And you have to defer to them.
And if you don't, you will be fired.
You will be ostracized.
You're not MAGA.
Trump just said so.
The dear leader, undying loyalty to Trump is my only principle.
It's all about Trumpism.
Unironically, loyal to Trump alone.
Well, from the horse's mouth, Trump has said Mark Levin is the boss.
Laura Loomer, Larry Loomer is the boss.
The Jews are the boss.
You don't even get to reluctantly be in the coalition beside them.
You must dutifully go to work and support beneath them, beneath them, under them every day.
That is obviously the message.
All these people that thought, well, you know, I'll tolerate a little pro-Israel stuff as long as we get our mass deportations.
I'm sorry.
Who the fuck do you think you are?
That's Mark Levin.
That's Laura Loomer.
They are in charge.
What do you mean we will tolerate pro-Israel?
Who's we?
And what do you mean we'd be willing, willing you work for them?
You are the junior partner.
There is a principle here of subsidiarity.
You are far below them in the pecking order, but that is how people saw it.
When people voted in 2024, tell me I'm wrong.
Tell me that I'm wrong.
You stupid assholes like Mike Cernovich and Jack Posobic and Tucker Carlson, when you all campaigned for Trump and called me a Democrat and you all told people to vote for this garbage, knowing full well what was going on.
I'm sure you all thought that you were going to lobby the president.
You were going to pressure him on Twitter.
You deal with these problems later.
You thought you were in the bargaining stage of grief.
You thought you were in control.
You thought you had power there.
And you really thought, well, I guess I'll grant my, I'll come down from my seat and I will lend my support as long as I get what I want.
And I don't like Mark Levin and I don't like Loomer, but I guess I will stand shoulder to shoulder to fight Deluft, to fight Doluft.
And we'll all stand behind Trump.
And you thought that you had any leverage in that situation.
You thought that you had maybe more than you did, a little bit more influence in that conversation, but you don't.
You have nothing.
Trump is on Air Force One with Lindsey Graham.
Laura Loomer is making the personnel decisions and the criminal referrals.
Mark Levin ate lunch with Trump and Ike Perlmutter in June of 2025, a week before Israel went to war.
He's running our foreign policy, not Tucker Carlson, not Dan Caldwell, not Kurt Mills.
It's the Jews.
And you don't even get the privilege of not liking it.
You don't even get to not like it.
You don't even have the privilege of reluctantly going along with it.
You better shut the fuck up, put a smile on your face, and you better bump your fist and do the dance while we go to war with Iran, you fucking bitch.
That is what you must do.
Cue up the music.
Let's do YMCA again.
YMCA, and what's the other song he likes to play?
What's that old funk song he likes to play?
Cue up Away Maria, the best to ever do it.
He's the best to ever do it.
He's still got it.
I love Mark Levin.
I love my war with Iran.
We're having more fun than anyone.
That's how, that is how we got here.
Now, the beginning of getting out of all this, you know, what do they say is the first step?
Realizing you have a problem.
Okay.
Congratulations.
Welcome to Trump's Anonymous.
The first step is realizing you have a problem.
Okay.
That's step number one.
You have a problem.
Trump lied.
He's a liar.
He scammed us.
He lies.
He says things like, lock up Hillary Clinton.
Then he goes to a rally and says, well, that plays good before the election.
Trump says, I'm a nationalist.
We should start saying that.
Then after the election, you never hear that again.
Trump says, we're going to have the largest mass deportation, whatever.
And then a few months later, he says, lighten up.
We're not going to deport everybody.
We're not crazy.
He's a liar.
He's a liar.
And for one reason or another, he's compromised.
Who knows how or why?
We can only speculate.
We can only guess.
People say it's blackmail.
People say he's a body double.
People say, people say all kinds of things.
Who knows?
But he's clearly compromised.
And this is now what MAGA is.
Now the cycle is complete.
It's animal farm.
You take a look around the room and you can't tell the pigs apart from the people anymore.
You can't tell apart the remnant of the old regime.
Condoleezza Rice is at the White House.
George W. Bush might be calling up Trump and saying, I wish I bombed Iran.
Mike Waltz is at the UN.
Mark Rubios is Secretary of State.
You look around the room and you can't tell apart the human beings from the animals.
You can't tell them apart anymore.
They have become the same and the cycle is complete.
And now Trump is the ultimate gatekeeper.
Trump says, now that I have weighed in on this, now I'm going to convince people to stop following Tucker.
That's what he said.
He said, there's a lot of people attacking Mark Levin and they're stupid and irrelevant and bad.
Mark Levin is a genius and the chosen one and good.
And I endorse him fully.
And he goes further.
He says, once I say this, people will understand that Tucker and Megan Kelly and Piers Morgan and all of them have less influence than they really have.
He's telling you, he's saying out loud, I am retarding the movement.
I am stopping it.
I am arresting it.
I am slowing it down.
He is telling it to your face.
I told you this is the problem.
Trump is no longer radicalizing anybody.
He's not a radical.
He's not dynamic.
He is not delivering anything.
As a matter of fact, he's doing the opposite.
He's de-radicalizing everybody.
All the independents, the Hispanics, anybody that supported Trump in 24 because they were sick of Biden, they're now turned off.
If Trump put together this coalition against Biden and Kamala and people reluctantly joined on to a very right-wing campaign, even if they were more in the middle, they have been turned off.
And many of the right-wing people that are loyal to Trump, they're being led astray.
They're being brainwashed because of their allegiance to Trump.
It's a Pied Piper effect into thinking that war with Iran is good.
Mark Levin is good.
So Trump is alienating and turning off, let's say, 60% of the country that is not Republican or conservative.
And the 30 to 40% that are Republican or conservative, he is dividing them.
It's a Pied Piper effect, leading half of them in one direction and maybe half of the other into despondency.
And I told you that would be the greatest sin of Trumpism.
And once he gets elected, you're going to get complacency.
He's going to bring us to war with Iran and people will support it because it's him.
And all you're going to do is catalyze a knock-on effect, which is that it will grow the left, actually, in the end, in the final calculation.
I said it might be better.
I get Kamala, at least it radicalizes everybody.
You get Kamala Harris in, and because she has no credibility, because she has no standing, at least people look at it as the farce that it is, and maybe they become far more radical than they were before.
Now you look at where the arrow is pointed, and I don't think it's ambiguous that Trump has been a net negative.
The only way that you save it now is that you have to rescue the father.
The only way to get out of this now, how do you use this to catalyze a right-wing reaction?
You have to burn the effigy of Trump.
Whatever we thought Trump was, whatever hopes and dreams that we placed upon him or projected onto him, we have to destroy that idol in our minds.
We have to burn it down.
We have to see Trump and Trumpism and MAGA destroyed.
And we need in the Republican Party a new leader that will step up, not from this administration, not Rubio, not Vance, obviously not Trump.
Nobody that was involved in this.
Nobody that was involved in this second term can take the baton.
The only way to salvage it is to destroy Trumpism and the GOP and have something new in 2028 that's a reaction to the left and Zionism on the right.
That's the only way.
I see this thing from Mark Levin.
How could it get any more obvious that you have a problem?
And I just look at these sad and pathetic people.
Trump is telling you that Mark Levin is the standard bearer of MAGA.
He's on Air Force One with Lindsey Graham, who couldn't be more giddy talking about bombing Venezuela, then Iran, then Cuba.
What's next?
Russia, China, Turkey?
I mean, seriously.
This is who is the, that's the MAGA movement now.
I started to see this in 2019.
In 2019, I woke up one day and realized, wait a second, Tim Scott and Lindsey Graham have more of a claim to MAGA than I do.
I'm being told by Rob Smith that I'm not MAGA because I'm anti-Israel and MAGA is pro-Israel.
I'm not MAGA because I'm a race realist and MAGA is pro-diversity.
I'm not MAGA because I'm a social conservative and MAGA is full of gays and trannies like Caitlin Jenner and all these other people that are in the admin right now.
And I started to realize: wait a second, you're right.
That's true.
MAGA is gay, brown, Jewish, all these things.
It diverged from its original trajectory.
And some people are chasing it and maybe in denial, wanting desperately for it to be the way it was.
They're in denial.
Maybe they still think it is something other than what it is.
But I realized in 2019, something went horribly wrong.
The mandate of MAGA now belongs to the Zionists, literally the worst elements, these like techno-libertarians, pro-Israel Jews.
Like that's the new coalition all of a sudden.
And when Trump makes the judgment and says they're MAGA and you're not, the people that are against immigration, that are against Israel first, that are against the war in Iran, they're out, and Mark Levin and Lumer are in.
What else do you need to see to realize that this movement has been hijacked?
Like everything else, hijacked, parasited.
It's something else now.
There is something else that has taken control here.
Skin-suited.
It's literally like invasion of the body snatchers.
And now it is something else.
And you need to wake up and realize that.
I don't know what else needs to be shown here other than this post.
What do you say to a guy like John Doyle?
What do you say?
I think about him in particular because we're roughly the same age.
He's at the blaze.
He was once a Groyper like me.
And he goes out there and says it's about undying loyalty to Donald Trump.
Dude, Trump is sucking Mark Levin off, dude.
And you're Trump sucks off Levin and you suck off Trump.
Like Levin is on top.
Trump is underneath.
It's literally like not to be gross, but it's like a human centipede.
And all these plan trusters, all these actually white people that care about America, ostensibly, nominally, they have to be literally at the bottom of the food chain, literally at the ground level.
I don't know how they take it.
I don't know how, I don't know how anybody is still taking it at this point.
But anyway, that's that.
I do want to move on.
People are saying gross.
Sorry.
I know that's a little vulgar, but it's, I mean, that's what it is.
That's just what it is because this is, this is utter shit.
Like, I don't need to tell you that.
This is so bad.
In 2015, Trump said Marco Rubio is the puppet of Sheldon Adelson, and he will do anything they say because he's owned by the Israel lobby.
I'm not making that up.
In December 2015, Trump said, we're going to ban all Muslims.
We're going to build a wall.
Mexico will pay for it.
He said he wouldn't take super PAC money.
I'm not a politician.
He was asked, would you take the side of Israel and Palestine?
And he said, neither.
He said neither.
He said, I'm going to make a deal for both sides.
That's who Trump was.
Now look at what Trump is.
Shapiro was a never Trumper.
Excuse me, Mark Levin was a huge critic of Trump.
They all were.
Even Charlie Kirk in the early days.
But this is what they know how to do.
They're like cockroaches.
They know how to survive.
They know how to infest and multiply and they know how to survive.
And that is who reigns, not these stupid little white people that try to get in DC and they're idealistic and they think they're going to make a difference and so willing to believe, so trusting.
That's not who wins in the end in politics.
It's these other people.
So, anyway, just a little piece of advice, you know.
I think about former associates of mine, stupid dumbass, told me, you're disloyal to Trump.
This guy that used to work for Marjorie Green, now he goes around telling everybody I'm a fed.
It's funny how that works.
He's out there in Florida doing his thing.
He goes, you're disloyal to Trump, disloyal to Trump.
Hey, pussy.
Trump is disloyal to you, pussy boy.
It's so funny.
It was all the, then forgive me.
We are going to move on here, but for me, it is very personal.
Because in 2024, I did identify all this.
And the amount of people that turned their back on me, the amount of people that it became very apparent, they were not loyal to me.
They did not truly believe in me.
Maybe they didn't really ever even understand politics.
This is very personal for me because I watched it.
I watched it.
And you can't take that back.
You can't take any of that back.
I'll never forget.
In 24, all of this was so plain to see.
You were all part of the problem.
And all these people threw me under the bus.
And they all doubted me.
They all said, oh, he went crazy.
Oh, he's a Nazi now.
Oh, he's too obsessed with Israel.
I'm obsessed with Israel.
No, my friend, America is controlled by Israel.
Now you see.
Now you understand, dumbass.
Golden age.
How about a generational run, bitch?
Golden age.
All we have to do is trust the plan, vote for Trump.
Don't be a pannikin.
Our willingness to believe our magical thinking is enough.
But they literally said that.
A lot of people I knew, they literally said he went crazy.
He should have never went on Alex Jones with Kanye and said he loved Hitler.
He should be like he was at AFPAC 2.
What happened to optical paleoconservatism?
What happened to all that?
I woke up.
That's what happened.
What happened?
It's a little something called my awakening.
I had a little awakening.
What happened to you?
Optical paleoconservatism, pro-Trump.
He deviated from the original course of America first.
No, you people did.
You did.
You lost sight of the bigger picture.
You became the very thing you swore to destroy.
And that is exactly what has happened.
Think about it.
We got into this.
We didn't know what we were getting into.
We were kids in 2015.
And we got into it because Trump said, no more endless wars.
We're going to build America.
Talk about a vision for a generation that grew up during 9-11 and the Iraq war and the Great Recession and Obama and BLM.
And Trump said, we're going to build roads and bridges and highways and we're going to build the wall and we're going to put America first and we're going to build things again.
We're going to bring industry back and we're going to defend our borders.
That's how this started.
And we always were more radical than Trump.
We always realized there was a Jewish oligarchy.
We always realized there was a racial component to all of this.
You can't make America great again while being buried under third world garbage, can you?
And we all knew it had to go further, but Trump started to take these people in the wrong direction.
10 years later, 10 years gone.
10 years have gone by and people wake up and they're in the movement where Trump is glazing every neocon, no unsucked neocon.
Lindsey Graham, Laurel Loomer, Mark Levin, Jared Kushner, Ben Shapiro, they run the White House.
He glazes them openly, takes their side.
Tucker, it is at the point where Tucker motherfucking Carlson from Dancing with the Stars and Fox and Friends, never forget that.
Before his prime time show, he was on Fox and Friends and Crossfire.
It has gotten to the point where that guy, Tucker Carlson, is like a Nazi.
Tucker Carlson is talking about the hummus-eating devil worshipers that crucify Jesus, that love lies and their father, the devil, and hate Christians in America and love, and they have a bloodlust, and they're sicking demons on us and demonic attacks.
That guy is that radical in a pitched battle with Mark Levin.
And Trump openly and vociferously and vehemently takes the side of Mark Levin and Sean Hannity as he bombs this shit out of Iran in our ongoing regime change war after they stopped the mass deportations.
And people are still trusting the plan.
What will it take?
Slavery is a choice.
Slavery is a choice.
We wouldn't be a free and independent nation without George Washington.
You're a Benedict Arnold.
All these people, I'm talking about you, my old friend, you are a stain.
John Doyle, Patrick Casey, all these people are a stain.
They are un-American.
This country wouldn't even be independent.
There would be no declaration.
There would be no constitution.
There would be none of it, none of it if the founding fathers did not resolve at the Continental Congress to declare independence, to go all the way.
If George Washington didn't cross the Delaware, these moments of decision where you have to choose: will we live in serfdom?
Will we live in slavery to a faraway nation?
Or are we going to fight and potentially die for our freedom?
That's the question.
It's the same question that faced them.
It's the same question we're always faced with.
And here it is again.
So this is the great commission.
Are you American?
Are you a true American?
I'm an American.
I'm America first.
Trump is not.
Trump sold us out.
Mark Levin is not.
Lindsey Graham is not.
That is not America.
That is supplication.
That is accommodation.
It is un-American.
So that's that.
I do want to move on.
I want to get on into our featured story tonight, which is about the actual ongoing war in Iran.
And like I said, we are now in the third week.
We're about halfway through the third week.
Entered the third week on Friday night, day 17 of the U.S.-Israel joint war against Iran.
And as we've discussed, this is now ground down into an attritional war where the United States and Iran are battling in an economic way.
We are dropping tons of ordinance on Iran every day, trying to destroy their military hardware and assets, trying to kill regime leaders.
They are using their missiles and drones to shut down the economy of the Gulf Cooperation Council, Israel, destroy U.S. radar and early warning systems, things which are not very mobile and which we don't make a lot of and which are very essential.
And more critically, they've shut down the Strait of Hormuz.
And so effectively this war, which got started with all this excitement and all this optimism, the Trump administration thought they were going to go in and hit them hard and topple the government and they would have another easy victory like they did in Venezuela.
It is now ground to a complete halt.
And now we are stuck.
We are stuck bombing Iran as Iran bombs the Strait.
And as this status quo sets in, oil prices remain consistently high.
This threatens to create more inflation in the global economy and maybe even potentially a global recession during a midterm election year.
Now, as we talked about last week, Trump really has two options here.
There are two options to end this conflict.
We're in effectively a stalemate.
We cannot achieve our objectives, which are toppling the regime and suppressing Iran's ability to attack our allies in the Persian Gulf.
It is an impossibility.
The current way the war is being fought, we cannot implement regime change through air and sea power alone.
We cannot suppress their firepower with air and sea power alone.
Iran cannot defeat the United States, does not have the conventional or strategic capability to do this.
Iran is on defense and they're trying to prolong the conflict as long as possible to induce as much pain to get us to leave them alone.
Trump has two ways to get out of this.
Number one, you achieve your objectives by escalating.
If you can't win with air and sea power alone, well, the implication is you can win with ground power.
So he's going to go in with an invasion force and invade Iran in some form or another.
And he will use ground personnel to disable Iran's ability to fire at the Strait of Hormuz, whether that means you invade the coast or you deploy at key strategic sites and disable their drone and missile production facilities, something like that.
Or it's an all-out invasion with a proxy force like the Kurds or some other ally.
You foment an uprising on the ground.
But that's option one.
You escalate to victory and you end the war, topple the government, shut down their ability to fire on the Persian Gulf.
Option two is you surrender.
The United States would have to withdraw and retreat.
And we would have to beg Iran for a ceasefire or beg China to induce Iran to make peace with the United States.
And we leave the conflict without achieving any of our goals, without suppressing their fire, without toppling the government.
We basically throw up the white flag, cry uncle, try to finesse it and bluster through it in the media, claiming victory when everybody knows we lost.
And Iran is emboldened.
The regime has survived.
The people have rallied around it.
And they immediately get to work on rebuilding.
Those are the two very bad options.
Now, Trump is looking for a third way, which is a way to break the stalemate.
He's trying now to get creative.
We've settled into the status quo.
And what he is doing is trying to ameliorate the effects of the attritional war.
Well, he and the International Energy Association have opened up these strategic oil reserves.
So Trump is trying to instill confidence in the markets and among the people by working with his other partners and supranational organizations, telling them, we're going to pay the price now, and later energy will get cheaper.
He's trying to convince everybody this is worth it.
It's short-term pain for a long-term gain.
And in the meantime, we're going to make up for the loss in supply by dipping into our reserves.
So Trump is unloading 270 million barrels of oil.
Altogether, the IEA is going to unleash 400 million barrels of oil.
And they're trying to find alternative sources of energy.
There's talk of Saudi Arabia pushing oil through an east-west pipeline to the Red Sea.
So one, he's trying to ameliorate some of the effects with the energy market.
militarily shifting some of our assets to the Middle East, potentially a third aircraft carrier, asking the Europeans for help.
Allegedly, there's a French aircraft carrier situated in the eastern Med, which might join up with us in the Arabian Sea.
He's bringing a FAAD system from South Korea to the Middle East, beefing up the defenses, bolstering some of the hard power in the region, trying to alleviate the economic pain.
And while we sit in the status quo, Trump is also trying to brainstorm a creative way that we haven't thought of to break the stalemate, to create more pressure.
So we think that we have maximum pressure on Iran because we're bombing them heavily.
We're killing their leaders.
We destroyed their navy.
We are totally dominating them in the war.
And yet they're still able to retaliate.
Yet the government has not collapsed.
So Trump is looking for new tools.
How do we tighten the screws?
How do we make it even harder for Iran?
And this is where Friday we got a little taste of that.
On Friday, Trump bombed Karg Island, which is the energy hub of Iran.
This is where all their oil is shipped to via pipeline to be loaded up on a tanker's end exported.
So Trump bombed this island, only the military assets there, maybe as a demonstration of force to show Iran that if they don't capitulate, Trump might go all the way and bomb their energy infrastructure.
And this would be debilitating for Iran because even if we eventually withdraw from the conflict, this would leave Iran economically ruined.
And it would take a long time.
It might be irreparable for them, the economic damage that is done by crippling their all-important oil industry, especially after they're reeling from all these airstrikes.
So maybe this is a way of signaling to Iran that it could get worse, that Trump might be tempted to not just destroy and cripple their military, but also their productive capacity as well.
Other people have said maybe it's a preparation for an invasion.
Bomb the military facilities on Karg Island and then get Marines or some U.S. force to go and actually seize Iran's oil infrastructure.
And that way, even if we don't destroy their oil infrastructure, which might invite a retaliation, reciprocal response, by seizing control of it, we can temporarily deny them oil revenue, and that may bring them to the negotiating table.
So there's some speculation that that is the play.
What is certain now is that Trump is looking for a way ultimately to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by force.
And this is a little bit more complicated.
So the number one problem here is that with the Strait of Hormuz closed, none of these oil tankers can get out.
And this is hundreds of ships, millions of barrels of oil per day.
And this is causing a constrained supply of energy, which is causing the high oil prices and gas prices and will soon cause inflation.
First, it's going to be jet fuel.
It's going to be diesel.
Then it's going to be gas that you get at the gas station.
Then that's going to have a ripple effect across the whole economy.
It's going to be because transportation costs and shipping costs go up, everything's going to go up.
Then it's going to be food prices because it's a lot of fertilizer that goes through the Gulf as well.
And so, if farmers can't get the fertilizer for cheap, well, then the food is going to get more expensive.
So, this is really going to have wide and far-reaching effects for the economy.
In order for Trump to truly relieve the pressure on our side, his new plan is to try to rip the Strait of Hormuz open.
The problem is, this seems to be almost impossible.
What more can be done that we're not doing?
We're bombing Iran all the time.
We've bombed them thousands of times, and we're bombing their missile production facilities and their missile launch platforms, and we're bombing all of this.
And yet, every day, Iran launches 30 to 50 drones and missiles.
And even though the numbers are dwindling, that's still a lot of projectiles going up every day.
Strait of Hormuz is very narrow.
If they're laying mines as well, even with some renewed effort, you're still not able to clear the strait.
They still won't send U.S. warships into the strait to escort commercial vessels out because it's too dangerous, even for a warship.
Even a warship won't go there because they're afraid of getting hit with a drone, a mine, a missile, which we have no ability to completely prevent.
Iran still maintains the capability to hit ships in the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf, and we can't do a thing about it.
So, Trump's new big plan is to enlist the help of other countries.
Trump says that if the closure of the strait is affecting every country and every country is hurt by this, well, then every country should try to open up the Strait of Hormuz.
So, Trump is now demanding that allied nations in Europe and the Pacific should join the United States in the war, and there should be some grand coalition.
All these countries' navies will come together and they will sail through the strait all at once or something, and there will be a joint war.
It will grow from a U.S.-Israel war on Iran to a U.S.-Israel-NATO quad war.
It's going to be Australia, Japan, South Korea, France, the U.K., Italy, Poland.
In his mind, all the countries are now going to assemble and get Trump out of the jam.
And so, he said this weekend that we're not going to do all the fighting alone.
We're not the only ones getting hurt by this.
We expect every country that's affected to join our Navy and participate in a grand operation to force the strait open.
The problem is, no country is going to do that.
And they've already said so.
The same day that Trump announced his coalition, Japan said they're not going to join.
Australia said they're not going to join.
France confirmed to the media they're not going to join.
Italy, Poland, Germany, the EU, the UK, all of them have all said the only one that is even close to a yes is the United Kingdom.
They're non-committal.
Every other country has said absolutely not.
Italy said we have no plans.
Germany says it's not our war.
Poland said we've ruled it out.
France says we're defensive only.
Every one of these countries.
And now, why do you think that is?
Well, in the first place, Trump has been browbeating all these countries for the past 15 months.
So we're not really off to a great start there.
Tariffs on all these countries, humiliating their leaders, publicly attacking them.
Now he's begging them to fight our war.
So already there's not a ton of interest.
Secondly, this is our war.
We went into this.
Trump and Israel, Netanyahu and Trump, who have no allies in the world, everybody hates them.
Trump and Netanyahu made the decision, really more of a Netanyahu decision, though, to go into Iran, this war that everybody knew would be a catastrophe.
They did it unilaterally, not through the Security Council, not through any proper channel.
They went in confidently, as the United States did in Venezuela.
And they got themselves into this mess.
And now that it's not going their way, now that the mighty United States and the glorious Israel, now that they are caught and stuck in this attritional war that's blowing up the global economy, now they're begging everybody that they've been browbeating for the past year and a half to come and bail them out.
This is a story from the New York Times.
It says, quote, as President Trump's assault on Iran enters its third week, European leaders are largely resisting his demands for help and reopening the strait.
The American president also issued a not-so-veiled warning in an interview saying it will be very bad for the future of NATO if Europeans do not join the United States in its effort to reopen the vital waterway to tankers carrying oil, gas, and fertilizer.
At Monday's event, he said, I think we're going to have some good help, and I think we're going to be disappointed too.
On Monday, he claimed, numerous countries have told me they're on the way, noting that President Macron of France would most likely help and was an eight out of 10.
Not perfect, he said, but it's France.
Several European leaders explicitly rejected the president's call to send their navies into harm's way, even as the U.S. and Israel-led war drives up the price of energy.
Boris Pistorius, Germany's defense minister, said, quote, this is not our war.
We did not start it.
He said Germany wanted a diplomatic solution and said, sending more warships to the region will likely not help achieve that.
Earlier in the month, Mr. Macron said he supported the idea of sending French naval ships to escort tankers through the strait, although he said it could happen only after the fighting stopped.
On Monday, the French foreign ministry posted on social media that its navy was staying in the eastern Mediterranean, saying posture has not changed, defensive it is.
So they're not going.
Kier Starmer, Prime Minister of the UK, who has been repeatedly attacked by Mr. Trump for not participating in the initial attack, reiterated this point in his news conference, saying, let me be clear, that won't be, and it's never been envisioned as a NATO mission, the war in Iran.
The Italian foreign minister also downplayed expectations.
An Italian missile frigate is in an Allied strike group accompanying France's aircraft carrier, but so far its operations are limited to the Eastern Med.
He said, quote, we are not involved in military operations in the Strait of Hormuz.
He said, Italy never said, but neither did France.
No other European country has offered to send military ships to force a passage through the Strait of Hormuz.
On Monday, the Polish foreign minister said Polish leaders had also ruled out sending Polish forces into the conflict against Iran.
So this is where we are.
Trump has plunged us into a war of choice against Iran with Israel.
It is a complete catastrophe, like everybody thought it would be.
We are just getting bitched.
The price of oil is skyrocketing.
They closed the strait.
We can't open it up.
We didn't think they'd do it, but they did.
We thought they could prevent them, but we couldn't.
We're three weeks in.
We're dying.
We're getting refueling aircraft blown up on the tarmac.
Refueling aircraft are crashing in Iraq and Americans are dying there.
Our radar systems, STAD systems are being targeted and blown up by Iranian missiles.
We're running out of missile interceptors, which we would need in any other hypothetical future conflict.
Our allies are being destroyed by this.
Gulf country real estate market is down 25% because they're getting rained on every day by drones and missiles.
Now Trump is in the position of begging, begging European and Asian countries to help us, and each and every single one of them is flat out rejecting us in public.
Poland, Germany, Italy, France, the UK, Japan, Australia, every single one of them has said, this is not a NATO mission.
If we do get involved, it won't be until the fighting stops.
We want nothing to do with your war.
So now we are stuck.
And here you have Trump in the Oval Office every day saying, we're the most respected.
We're in charge.
We hold all the cards here, threatening everybody.
This is the worst disaster.
I think of the past, maybe besides COVID since 2016.
Since Trump got in in the first term, this is maybe the biggest catastrophe outside of the pandemic, which is, in some ways, maybe unavoidable.
What even is the defense anymore?
What are we doing?
The plan is that we're going to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
How exactly are we going to do that?
We're going to send a warship into the 40-mile-long strait where there are mines, where Iran is able to target those ships with drones and missiles, which are cheap and plentiful and which they're making all the time and highly mobile.
How the hell are we going to reopen the strait?
What are we possibly going to do?
Trump is now begging other countries, please come and help us.
They're saying no.
Okay, now what?
Is it even possible to lose more aura here?
Is it even possible to lose more credibility as a state?
Does our deterrent threat have any, is it possible to have less credibility than it did before?
And you have to wonder: so, if we can't pry the strait of Hormuz open through military force, because that doesn't seem possible, if no one is going to help us, if Trump is totally unwilling to retreat or withdraw, then what is the only other option that we have on the table?
Well, it's invade or it's nukes.
That's it.
Is Trump going to seriously try to invade the coast of Iran?
Is he going to try to invade Karg Island?
Is he going to try to parachute troops in into the country?
Is there going to be fighting on the ground?
Seriously, how is this conflict going to end?
Because the only other option that I see is that we are forced to end it.
We are forced to withdraw.
And once we withdraw, again, all this does, hardliners have succeeded the previous regime that was killed in Iran.
The people support the regime more than they did before.
And Iran will get right back to work rebuilding.
If Israel tries to intervene or impede that, Iran will close the strait all over again.
If they don't, then it's only a matter of time before Iran builds up its capabilities to a sufficient level that it once again causes alarm in Tel Aviv and Israel tries to bring us back into Iran again.
And this is when you realize we are completely stuck.
We're not stuck in this round of hostilities.
We are now stuck on this escalation ladder, which we have no control over with Iran.
And we've been stuck since Trump got elected.
Trump got elected and it sealed our fate.
It could have gone no other way because Trump was going to appoint all these neocons.
He was going to be beholden to the Israeli donors, to his son-in-law, whatever.
They were going to drag us into attacking Iran, which we did.
And once we did that, all it did was set off a vicious cycle.
It lit the fuse on a vicious cycle.
I think the only way, if there is one, out of this is regime change in Israel and America.
That's the only way out of this.
Iran, once we finish here, if we withdraw without toppling the government, they're going to try to build the nuclear bomb, I assume.
They're going to try to rebuild their missiles and drones.
We're going to be right back where we started in six months, unless Netanyahu is not in power and a weaker Israeli leader is in place.
He'll feel the same way, but he won't be as powerful as Netanyahu.
And we need regime change in the United States.
We need Democrats in Congress that can shut the administration down and prevent the government from bringing us back.
In a word, let's let Iran go nuclear.
Let's let Iran rebuild its defenses.
Let's let Israel and the United States replace their leadership by a population that wants to be free, that doesn't want a war.
In Israel, it's not going to happen.
In America, this is what we need.
And we need an American president who can give confidence to the Iranians that we are not going to annihilate them and that they don't need to pursue these kinds of weapons because we will restrain Israel for the sake of ourselves and for the sake of regional stability.
That's the only solution from day one that was ever going to work.
Going all the way back to the beginning, going all the way back to JCPOA, even the Obama years.
That was the only solution.
But that's that.
We're going to move on.
We're going to take a look at our super chats.
We'll see what you guys have to say.
Kind of like an hour and a half monologue there.
We're going to move on.
We'll take a look at the super chats.
We'll see what you guys have to say.
We got to fix the super chat app.
Every night, I get about half of the super chats from the previous show and all the super chats from the new show.
So it doesn't really work.
All right, but let's take a look.
Let's see what we got here.
Pretty brutal stuff.
The only consolation is that we didn't vote for this, right?
Don't look at me.
I voted for Hitler.
Don't look at me.
I voted for the other guy.
That is the only consolation.
If you voted for this, wow.
Just wow.
But that's my only relief I have is that I didn't participate in all this.
We might need to do something like that for our real high rollers because the $100 a month club, let's just say it could be a little bit rough in there.
It could be a little bit rough sometimes.
So we'll see about that.
But thank you for the massive super chat.
We got to start like a presidential, like an inner circle group chat.
It's like you pay a ton of money and then I'm just on the phone all the time, you know?
Maybe, maybe.
We'll see.
But thank you for the massive support.
