Nick Fuentes details his physical altercation with Marla Rose, noting misdemeanor battery charges were dismissed despite her claims of broken ribs, while he alleges a Jewish conspiracy controls the GOP and Trump. He argues the U.S. faces a strategic dilemma in Iran, where regime change risks nuclear war or total defeat if the Strait of Hormuz closes. Fuentes insists Israel's unchecked power threatens American sovereignty, urging a shift from escalation to regional peace agreements to avoid inevitable catastrophe. [Automatically generated summary]
You have been looking at no more than projections of a conjured reality.
Also known as a mirage.
But we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covet means, understanding the sphere of influence.
What makes 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 of it, 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.
Because the Republicans are better than the Democrats.
Here's a little perspective.
Let's say that Kamala Harris had won the election in 2024.
If Kamala doubled down on supporting Ukraine as Trump has, if Kamala bombed Iran, there'd be riots in the streets.
People would say our illegitimate president, who cheated her way into the nomination, she's expanding the war, she's expanding World War III into the Middle East.
Everybody would say this is illegitimate, this is like a crime.
But because it was Trump, 90% of Republicans supported Trump bombing Iran on Israel's behalf.
Because it was Trump.
If it was Kamala, do you think 90% of Republicans would have supported it?
Absolutely not.
Democrats wouldn't support it, independents wouldn't support it, and Republicans would not support it.
And it's time to just say it outright Donald Trump is the Matrix president, okay?
In 2016, Hillary Clinton was the Matrix candidate.
In 2020, Joe Biden was the matrix candidate.
But in 2024, Donald Trump was.
And why?
After October 7th, the Jews knew that the Republican Party, controlled by AIPAC, controlled by Israel, and with Trump in office, they were going to let Israel do whatever they wanted to do.
It's clear, it's obvious.
And the media is in on it.
Silicon Valley, Wall Street, and the media are all in on it because Trump is their matrix candidate.
That's why CNN is friendly to them.
That's why Silicon Valley gave him hundreds of millions of dollars.
That's why Wall Street did.
And Trump is just dispensing the favors.
Corporate tax cuts for Wall Street, bombing Iran for Israel.
This is the story of the 2024 election.
And here's the red pill that nobody's ready for JD Vance is the Matrix candidate.
They ordered Trump to nominate him.
Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and Tucker Carlson ordered Trump to pick JD Vance.
We live in a system that is controlled by one party, and they played the parties off of each other.
They've done it forever.
When Israel was under attack, They played into the right wing because they knew that the Republican Party would say things like, There's a Muslim takeover of America.
Trump said he was going to bomb Iran.
We're tough.
So they leaned into the Republican cultural stuff.
That's why Charlie Kirk says Islam is taking over America, because that kind of Islamophobic rhetoric plays well with the right wing.
That's why they did it.
There's no Muslim takeover of America, there's a Jewish takeover of America, obviously.
And the Republicans are involved in it just as much as the Democrats.
They have made peace with Egypt, Jordan, Emirates, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia.
They have destroyed the regime in Iraq, Syria, and soon to be Iran.
And what this gives them is unbridled, unlimited power.
To do what exactly?
Well, most likely to expand their territory.
Who exactly would stop that?
The answer is nobody.
If Israel controls that region, how rich, how powerful can they become?
My issue with Iranian regime change is that we are creating an Israeli superpower that not even we will be able to restrain.
Look at how they have used us like an instrument.
They stole a nuclear arsenal from us.
They got all of this military technology from us.
We defeated their foes.
And now we have essentially handed this to them.
Now they're ready to cut the umbilical cord and become their own superpowers.
We endured the cost.
We paid the money.
Our soldiers died.
Our country burned so that an Israeli superpower could be born.
And now our country will be in the wreckage.

This would be the third time that Israel has threatened to use nukes to force the United States to help them.
The first time was in 1973.
When Syria and Egypt launched a surprise attack on Israel, which started the Yom Kippur War on October 6th, 1973, almost 50 years exactly before October 7th, Israel was almost overrun.
And the United States was reluctant to provide them with the military support that they needed to defend themselves.
So the Prime Minister of Israel, Golda Meir, called up Nixon.
And said, if you don't help us, we will nuke Syria and Egypt.
We will use our nuclear arsenal.
We will nuke the Middle East.
And you want to know what happened next?
The largest airlift by tonnage of military equipment in the history of the earth.
Everything that Israel needed to defend themselves.
The next day, there's a word for that.
It's called nuclear blackmail.
These people are maniacs.
This is your closest ally.
And for people that say, You know, what does it matter?
We're like the SWAT team of Free Thought, and I go on with this battle ram at the door, and then they come in with these laser beams and have that information.

Days after
the September attacks, there were countless rumors about strange coincidences surrounding the events.
One report about a group of Middle Eastern men spotted the morning of September 11th parked just across the river from New York City has not gone away.
No one's allowed to say that the blood is a quintessential part of this, that the blood of our people is something that is essential.
that we are different, that America was different because we are different.
It's Christianity and Christ so different from the other religions.
It's 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 as 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,
that is what makes us different.
That is what makes us good.

We have a lot to talk about tonight, lots to get into.
Big show.
It's actually another day where nothing has happened at all.
I was going to cancel.
It was like 10 o'clock, and I'm like, I'm canceling this shit.
Nothing even happened today.
Read the news.
Nothing.
Whole lot of nothing.
But it's going to be a big show regardless because there has been some big news in my world.
And my world is the world, okay?
The world is my world.
And our featured story tonight is all about how I beat the case, had to beat a nigga's ass, and then I beat the case.
That's a joke.
I don't even know at this point what I can and can't say.
I probably should have talked to my attorney before the show, but whatever.
Featured story tonight, we're talking all about the shove heard around the world.
And yes, it is true.
The case is dismissed, charges are dropped.
And we're going to talk a little bit about it, not too much, because I don't want to get myself in any more trouble.
But yes, this 18 month long legal fiasco is now finally over, stemming from my 2024 Twitter post.
I said, Your body, my choice.
Everybody lost their minds.
People started coming to my house, trying to kill me, trying to beat me up, and other things.
Some woman shows up to my house.
I guess we could talk about it now.
She comes to my house, pulls out her phone.
She starts filming my house, doing a monologue saying, I'm a Nazi and an incel and I'm violent against all women and so on.
Comes up to the front porch.
And let's just say she briefly lost control of her body for just a moment.
Let's just say that her body was taken into custody for just a little while, sailed through the air, and then her autonomy was returned back to her.
It was my choice in that moment.
Let's just say for a brief moment, it was my choice.
And you know the rules.
I don't, obviously, it's a joke.
When I say your body, my choice, that's a joke.
But you come to my house, hey, listen, you come to my house, you come knocking on my door, my porch, my choice, bitch.
My house, my choice.
So we had to intervene a little bit.
It was a regrettable incident.
Some say I overreacted.
I don't know about that.
That's up for you to decide.
I guess you can be the judge, God can be the judge.
You can make your decision also.
But I got charged with misdemeanor battery.
They made me do all this ridiculous stuff, and now I think it's over.
Well, we hope so.
So, anyway, we're going to talk a little bit about that.
I don't know.
I probably shouldn't, but we'll talk a little bit about it.
We're also going to talk tonight about the war in Iran, another update.
And it looks like the war is rolling on.
There's going to be more attacks, more bombing.
They say that the Central Command is preparing more options.
Military options for President Trump to consider.
There's going to be a major briefing tomorrow with the generals, and they're going to give Trump some new options.
They're actually old new options.
It's all the same stuff.
They're talking about a special forces raid in the mainland to secure the highly enriched uranium.
They're talking about a ground operation to secure the islands.
They're talking about all the things that have been discussed already, which we've already talked about.
And it seems like it could be another bluff or it could be real.
Honestly, who knows at this point?
But the price tag of the war, according to the Pentagon, is now $25.
Billion.
I don't even believe that.
I think it's probably much higher.
But Pete Hegseth was in a hearing today and he was grilled by Congress.
He said that so far it's 14 deaths, $25 billion.
As of today, oil futures are at $123 a barrel, I believe is the latest price.
So oil prices remain high.
Cost for the conflict remains high.
No end in sight.
And like the past several weeks, once again, we're facing a decision whether to escalate or de escalate.
So that we can achieve some kind of face saving compromise.
We can extract some token concessions so it's not a complete humiliation, or it's just going to be more of the same, which is the blockade, the closure of the strait, and trying to pressure Iran to come to the table again.
So we're going to talk all about that.
Should be a pretty good show.
Like I said, though, there's just really not too much to discuss.
Before we get into it, I want to remind you to smash the follow button on Rumble.
Smash the like button, leave a comment.
Let me know what you think about the show.
Check out our merch store, Fuentes.store.
We have our brand new spring collection.
I'm wearing one of the pieces just to promote it.
You know, I know it's not Casual Friday, but I wanted to promote it.
It looks cool, right?
Now, look at the back.
What do you think of the back?
So, this is one of the zip up hoodies.
I love it.
It's high quality fabric, high quality material.
It's thick.
And I like the fit.
What do you think?
I'm going to model it a little bit.
Just so you get a taste.
Just so you get a little taste.
Give you a little sample here.
We also have the white.
I really love how this turned out the white America First hat.
And it's like all the other ones, but, you know, it's in white.
We have the Distressed America First vintage hat.
This is a favorite, I think.
So, you could get the white and the black.
What do you think of this?
That's kind of cool, right?
We got this that I'm wearing.
We got the shorts that match.
So, I'm not wearing the shorts, but I think they go, they could go with this.
So, you got the shorts, AF, the shield.
We got the white quarter zip.
We got this.
How can you call it a movement?
When you have no motion, we got.
Oh, this one's pretty cool.
This t shirt.
I really like this one.
It's like me driving at night.
And I think we got one other one here just for show.
And then we got this one.
This one's kind of cool.
Checkered flag.
It's like a car thing.
This one could be like girly.
This one, I could see like a girl wearing this.
The Groy Bets got discontinued because we got copyright struck by Bratz.
Which is who told them that?
Who that must have been one of the ops?
We were selling the Groybets crop top t shirt, it was Bratz themed.
How did they find out?
How did they know?
One of the ops told them.
One of the ops went to Bratz Incorporated or Mattel or whatever.
So, whatever.
We'll do something else for the Groybets.
But for now, I mean, this is kind of girly.
I could see a girl wearing this, or if you like cars, or it's for boys too.
I mean, anyone can wear it, but I don't know.
It kind of has like a beachy.
This one's like, could kind of go either way, I guess.

I was going off in the group chat today.
I think I did about 30, 40 minutes of bonus content in the group chat, which is, I don't know if that was today or yesterday, but that's a lot of content.
I did Alex Jones for two hours, I did some content in the group chat.
Now I'm doing the show.
So, I'm more, even though I'm late, even though I'm like three hours late, it's a lot of content.
So, check that out.
Like I said, $100 a month club, America First.plus.
Like I said, if you missed it earlier today, I believe I made my final appearance on InfoWars with Alex Jones this afternoon.
I don't know what's going on over there.
Okay.
So, don't ask me.
But Alex says that by, I believe it's Friday, InfoWars is shutting down.
And he says that a private investigator from Houston is coming down to Austin, Texas, and they're going to shut down the whole studio, even though they don't have a court order, and they have to sell it to The Onion, the satirical website.
So it seems that Infowars is over.
And now they're transitioning over to the Alex Jones Network.
I assume that he's going to carry on doing the show, but just in a different form.
So I think today was my actual last ever appearance, my final appearance on Infowars.
Definitely not my.
My last collaboration with Alex, but last collaboration under the Infowars banner, which is kind of sad.
It's a pretty good show.
They had some technical difficulties.
I could tell he wasn't happy about that.
I've been around when the technical stuff fails and he goes beast mode.
I've seen it.
And I get it.
I've done the same thing.
I've been there, done that, got the t shirts.
And we got the t shirts from the store.
I've been there and I know how it is.
But so the first hour was a little rough, but we got it back together.
And then we had a really good second hour.
We talked all about Iran.
We talked about the SPLC.
We talked about 28.
It's a pretty good show.
Me and Alex now, we're just like, dude, that's just my nigga now.
That's just my guy.
I go on his show and it's just like a reunion.
So we love the GOAT, Alex Jones.
Great to speak with him as always.
We're joking around a little bit, having a good time, talking about 28.
He's always so kind to me.
And so if you missed that, we're going to upload that on my channel and it's also on his channel.
And honestly, I'm just sick of politics in general.
I said this on Twitter today.
Holy.
My one tweet today, I go on Twitter and I said, you know, I'm just getting sick of politics.
Like, I'm just tapped out a little bit.
And like, don't read too much into that.
I'm obviously here.
I'm doing the show.
I will continue to do the show.
We have a lot of interesting stuff planned in the future.
I'm just saying how I feel.
Is that okay?
I'm just expressing how I feel.
And right now, I feel bored with politics.
And I'm sick of it.
Can anyone else relate?
It just feels like all the same stuff.
And what's really crushing about it is that Trump just sucks so hard.
He is awful.
And not only is Trump awful, but all of the people that he is promoting are awful as well.
It's like the worst timeline.
We're living in the timeline where Laura Loomer and Mark Levin are being promoted on the daily by Trump.
While we're in a war with Iran, he lies about everything.
Everything he says is a lie.
He's so full of shit.
Everything could not be going worse.
The mass deportations, has anybody even heard about him lately?
They're just not even happening.
Immigration is not even being talked about.
We're in a war with Iran with no end in sight.
Israel controls the government.
We had a huge breakthrough where people were realizing all this.
And now Trump is literally fighting the red pill.
Think about how insane that is.
10 years ago, we had this idea that Trump was some kind of a vanguard, or we considered him a John the Baptist type figure.
That he would prefigure the actual America First movement.
In other words, we considered him to be a catalyst, an accelerant.
He was going to cause the red pilling of the country.
And what is the red pilling?
The red pilling is that this country is being raped to death by immigrants and Jews.
And I know that sounds like totally insane, but it's also completely true.
Everybody knows it.
If we could just ameliorate those two things, this country would be fine.
And everyone knows it.
What are 99% of the problems?
It's all these Indians everywhere.
It's all the black criminals.
It's all of these Hispanics taking over absolutely everything.
It's all these immigrants everywhere all the time.
I'm sick of them.
I'm sick of them.
I'm sick of seeing them.
I'm sick of hearing their languages.
I'm sick of their carrying on, the way they throw their trash everywhere.
I'm sick of the degenerate left wing scum, stench of weed everywhere, graffiti.
And then there's the other layer on top of it all, which is the Jewish oligarchy, which is creating the situation.
And anyway, you thought that Trump was going to take the electorate to a place where they were ready to confront these issues.
And the way that Trump was talking in 2016 indicated that maybe it would go there.
He would talk about the foreign special interests, the international banks.
He would talk about immigration and not just illegal, but also legal immigration.
He was talking about all this.
Fast forward 10 years later, and let's reframe it a little bit.
Now he is actively fighting to suppress the truth.
The truth is getting out there, the truth is breaking free.
People are waking up about all of this.
And now, not only is Trump not accelerating it, catalyzing it, supplementing it, he's actively fighting to suppress it every day.
So people like Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Piers Morgan, Candace Owens are all red pilled.
We're living in a world where Tucker Carlson is every day waging a war on Israel.
You know how crazy that is?
Megyn Kelly, Piers Morgan are in a bitter feud with Ben Shapiro, calling him an Israel first Jew.
That's where we are.
And these are the biggest podcasts in the world, in America.
So the truth is getting out there, the truth is breaking free.
And what is our vanguard?
What is our vanguardist movement doing?
What is Trump, empowered in the White House, commander in chief of the armed forces?
What is he, and him being the rallying point of the entire institutional organized right wing in the country, what is he doing in the middle of this moment?
Working to suppress it, fighting it everywhere all the time, attacking Tucker, attacking Alex Jones, Megyn Kelly, attacking Candace Owens every day, promoting Mark Levin, Laura Loomer, another meeting with Netanyahu.
Was on the books.
It got canceled.
We're in the war with Iran.
He's selling it to his supporters.
Ten years ago, he animated the anti neocon movement.
Now he is the neocon movement.
Ten years ago, he animated that conversation about the war in Iraq, the special interest that brought us there.
9 11 was an inside job.
Now, all these years later, he's bringing us into a third war in the Persian Gulf on behalf of Israel and promoting all of its.
Propagandists.
And she gets a point, you're just like, I'm sick of it.
I'm sick of it.
And I'm sick of going on the timeline every day and having to deal with these pro Trump cocksuckers, because that's what they fucking are.
I'm sick of having to go on the timeline every day and it's all these fucking stupid boomers.
Can they just die already?
Can we pull the plug on Medicaid?
Seriously.
That's all it is on Twitter, these fucking boomers with the check mark.
They got the selfie in the truck with the sunglasses and the hat, and they're like, War with Iran's actually great.
Oh, you're a Democrat.
Bro, take away the Medicaid.
Day of the pillow.
Can your grandson pull the plug on you already, bro?
That's all it is on the timeline.
It's these boomer faggots, and then it's all of these pro Trump influencers like Pasobic and End Wokeness and Libs of TikTok and all the usual suspects promoting.
The ballroom, the ballroom, the war, the big beautiful bill.
Does anybody even remember the Save Act?
Remember when that was going to be the big thing?
Does anybody, hey, here's the question.
Does anybody even remember the Save Act?
Remember when that was going to be their next big thing?
I had people telling me, this is how we're going to get it back on track.
We're going to focus on the domestic agenda.
Trump is loading up his big reset.
We're going to focus on election reform.
Remember the Save Act?
The Save Act, when they were going to do voter ID and they were going to let children cut their balls off with their parents' consent.
That was the big play.
And how are we going to get it passed?
We're going to beg the Democrats to give us the votes.
Just like we're begging Iran, just like we're begging Russia, just like we're begging everybody.
You have to pass the Save Act.
The Democrats, you know, they were never going to do the nuclear option.
They were just begging.
To do it to fix the midterms or whatever.
Nobody's even talking about it anymore.
But that's just a case in point.
It's just an endless flow of slop.
It's just an endless supply backing up the truck full of garbage and slop fed to the masses, fed to the Goyim.
And it just gets to a point where you're like, you know what?
I'm not playing anymore.
I don't have to put up with this.
I don't have to hear this.
I don't have to put.
And so, to my point, I posted today, you know, I'm sick of politics and all these MAGA boomers.
Gavin Newsom, if you can hear me, please imprison every MAGA supporter.
No, I'm obviously kidding.
I don't want them to die, actually.
But part of me is like, part of me is like, there's sort of like two ways we can look at it.
We could say in 2028, if a Democrat wins, they're going to persecute every Trump supporter.
But then you stop and you say, wait a second.
If a Democrat wins in 2028, they're going to punish every Trump supporter.
If a Democrat, if Gavin Newsom wins in 2028, Oh, he's going to punish every Trump supporter.
It's going to be delicious.
And it's going to be awesome.
Can you?
And yeah, I'm going to go too.
I'm pressing the red button.
Really, in 2028, it's like a red button, blue button situation.
I'm pressing the red button.
We can all press the red button.
If we all vote Democrat, they will spare us.
And anyone that doesn't will go to jail.
So, what's it going to be?
Red button or blue button?
If we press the red button and we vote Democrat, we will live.
But everyone that did not vote Democrat is going to prison forever.
Which button will you press?
I'm pushing the red button.
I'm all in.
That's a joke, obviously.
We want Hitler to.
Obviously, we want a Hitler level candidate to win in 28 from the far right.
So obviously, I'm joking.
But sometimes I do just think like.
It would really just, I didn't feel like that before, but every time one of these sunglass selfie pickup truck profile pictures attacks me in the replies, it's like, Gavin, please send the army.
Gavin, please send the race communists.
Zoran Mandani, if you can hear me, please implement Sharia law.
Please implement Sharia law.
Take away their pickup trucks, take away their sunglasses.
Take away their fudge rounds.
Take away their, what is that, gas station?
Take away Bucky's.
Zoran, if you can hear me, please put Bucky's out of business forever.
They have to be punished.
They have to be punished for this.
So, anyway, no, I'm kidding, obviously.
Just, it's just jokes, obviously.
But anyway, that's just how I feel, okay?
I'm just telling you how I feel.
And that's all anyone can really do, I guess.
Anyway, so like I said, I'm just like tapped out of politics.
I'm just looking for something.
I'm looking for something to kind of get me going here.
But there's just nothing, you know, there's just a whole lot of nothing lately.
So, anyway, we're going to move on.
We're going to get into our news for the night.
Like I said, we're going to touch on a little bit about my battery situation.
And this is some cause for celebration.
Featured story The case has been dismissed, charges have been dropped against me after the situation that unfolded outside my house about a year and a half ago.
And this is a story from the Chicago Sun Times.
I'll just go through it.
And we'll talk a little bit about it.
It says, The criminal case against Nick Fuentes has been dropped months after he was set to complete a deferred prosecution agreement, but the woman he is accused of battering said he didn't complete the agreement and is now taking him to civil court instead.
Criminal Case Against Nick Fuentes Dropped00:15:18
After dropping the criminal case against him, fearing it would be strung out even longer, Than the 18 months that have already passed since the attack.
Marla Rose is now suing him in civil court, she told the Sun Times.
Since the attack, the attack, she comes to my house, she comes to my front door looking for a problem, filming my house, doxing me, calling me names, standing outside my house screaming since the attack, like it was like we were out in a restaurant or something.
Anyway, it goes on.
It says, Well, Fuentes attended court via Zoom.
I actually attended court via Zoom in Italy.
I wanted to turn my camera on, but I didn't get a chance.
I was so, I seriously, I went out to the Spanish quarter in Naples and I was going to turn the Zoom on in court and be like, Oh, hey, am I good to go?
I was going to be like drinking cappuccino and like have Italy in the background and be like, Oh, hey, guys, is this case over yet?
But anyway, so I joined via Zoom.
Rose was given the chance to take him to criminal trial or drop the charges.
She chose the latter after filing a civil court case against him last month.
But still, she was sickened by what she said were the.
Oh, I clipped this part out.
The case stems from a confrontation at Fuentes' Berwyn home in November 2024 when he pepper sprayed and pushed Rose down the stairs after she came to his front door after his address was leaked online.
He was charged with misdemeanor battery.
The woman went to confront Fuentes after he posted a message on X as the 2024 election results began to favor President Trump.
In the post, Fuentes mocked the idea that women have a right to control their own bodies, saying, Your body, my choice forever.
I always love how they write that.
I mocked the idea that women can control their own bodies.
Crazy, crazy reframe.
It's like, bro, it's a joke.
It's a joke.
Like, seriously, it's a joke.
Anyway, as part of the deferred agreement reached in October, Fuentes had signed on to do 75 hours of community service, complete an anger management training, apologize in court, and pay her $600 for her phone.
Are you kidding?
How insane is that, by the way?
We'll get into that in a minute.
While Rose was paid for her phone, she said she lost count of the extensions he was given by judges throughout the case just to ultimately have no proof.
That he completed the community service or anger management class.
She was also disappointed after being handed an apology letter from Fuentes, which she said likely was written by AI.
Rose added she would not have agreed to the deal if she'd known he wouldn't have to apologize in person.
I thought Jews were supposed to be good at the law.
You know, I thought that was your thing.
Guess not.
A motion filed by an attorney working on Rose's behalf last week argued that Fuentes failed to complete the community service in time.
And yet he was seen partying in other states earlier this year.
She said, There was some small hope I had that in doing service for others, he might become a more compassionate person.
Hey, listen, you fucking bitch.
I'm a very compassionate person if you actually got to know me.
She says, To see the news, this is the best part.
This is my favorite part.
She says, To see the news of him flying off to Miami to dance with the Manosphere bros to a song about annihilating Jewish people, it's hard to put into words.
Other than to say it reminds me of my disappointment with the Cook County criminal justice system.
Yeah, yeah.
Tell it to the judge.
She goes, I'm waiting for my resolution to this case, and he's out there dancing to a song with Andrew Tate and Clavicular about annihilating the Jewish people.
She says it's a song about annihilating Jewish people.
Like, dude, the script writers went off with this one.
W script writers for this.
So, anyway, so this is the story.
We love to see it.
Yeah, so the case was dismissed.
The only thing I have to say about it is it genuinely, here's the outrage.
Here's, oh, you know what?
Actually, there's one other part here.
She says, What I want ultimately is for his Groypers and hundreds of thousands of followers to know there are consequences to actions.
I don't want them to think you cannot be held accountable.
What level of delusion are we on?
Let's just talk about what happened.
So I go on Twitter and say, Your body, my choice.
People post my address, and everybody starts saying, We're going to blow up your house.
We're going to kill you.
We're going to beat the fuck out of you at your house.
And then people start showing up, threatening to do exactly that, including her.
She was maybe the 200th person to show up to my house, and I'm not even exaggerating.
That weekend after the election, it was literally in the hundreds, the hundreds of people driving by, walking to the door, walking through the gangway, going through my backyard.
Hundreds of people.
I didn't even talk about it back then because it was really hot at the time.
But she was maybe the 200th person to show up.
She pulls up, filming the house.
She's standing outside the house like an idiot, filming, screaming, saying, This is where this incel lives.
He's a Nazi, blah, blah, blah.
And her intention is to post it on Facebook, basically to say, This is where he lives.
And if you actually see the video, I hit her with the pepper spray.
It had no effect.
The pepper spray was maybe a couple years old.
My parents gave it to me a long time ago.
And so I just had it on hand.
I hit her with the pepper spray and I noticed it had zero impact.
Like it's not effective at all.
The attack was not effective at all.
She just absorbs it completely.
She's just like, oh, like, what is that?
So I panic and I'm like, well, This is going to be really awkward.
It's like if I just spray you in the face with this non effective substance, well, now this is just really uncomfortable.
I kind of just had to take her and just get rid of her, you know, like, okay, bye.
And I grab the phone because she's using the phone in basically in furtherance of a crime.
She's trying to film inside my house.
She's trying to dox me.
So I take the phone, call the cops.
Cops come.
And by the way, the police come and they, you know, This is my favorite thing of all time.
They come up to me and they go, Hey, man, we just want your side of the story.
I said, I'm not saying anything.
I said, I called my attorney before the cops even came.
I said, What do I say?
They said, Don't tell them anything.
I said, Look, I'm in fear for my life.
I don't feel safe.
And I'm not saying anything else.
They're like, You know, we just want to get your side of the story and blah, blah, blah.
Never trust police.
Police are out to get you.
But the cops come.
Weeks later, I get charged with battery.
I get charged with battery.
They offer me this agreement.
And the agreement is if you want to avoid a trial, you need 75 hours of community service, anger management, you have to apologize, and you got to pay for the broken phone $635.
She came to my house.
She came to my house looking for a problem.
By the way, in a situation where hundreds of people are coming to my house, hundreds of people are banging on the door, threatening to kill me.
There's viral TikTok saying, let's burn his house down.
She's totally aware of all this, comes to the front door looking for trouble.
And you saw the video.
I could have kicked her in the face.
I push her to the floor.
If I were some kind of psychomaniac, I could have punched her in the face.
I could have kicked her stupid head.
I could have shot her for all she knows with everything that was going on.
And I came out and I said, look, you're lucky that's the worst thing that happened to you.
I said, you came here looking for a problem.
You're lucky the worst thing that happened is you fell on your ass, especially in this day and age.
And by the way, you don't even know.
You don't know if somebody's unpredictable, if somebody's erratic.
I said, you're lucky that I had such a soft touch.
I solved the problem.
I pushed you down.
I took the phone.
I called the cops.
Okay, you bruised your ass a little bit.
So what?
But then the county is going to say, now you got to do community service, anger management.
Pay for the.
It's a little bit excessive, don't you think?
I understand that if this was an altercation in a restaurant, in a movie theater, in the street, on the sidewalk, if this happened at her house or somewhere else in public, okay, maybe.
She's coming to my house.
I get indicted for this.
And so, like I said, this went on for like a year and a half.
I'm in court every month, you know, getting these continuances, trying to figure out how we're going to, you know, what we're going to do here with this deal.
Finally, they dropped the charges.
And now she's looking for the payday.
Now she's talking about she wants to bring me to civil court.
And she's saying, you know, people are going to put up money to.
And by the way, she's a Jew.
And it just so happens she's a Jew.
She's a Jewish left wing feminist, vegan, blah, blah.
Now she's looking for a payday.
She goes on Facebook after the attack.
She says, I got six broken ribs.
Six broken ribs.
Quite the miraculous recovery.
Because if you watched in the video, she falls to the ground and then gets up on her knees and she's like, Did you get that?
Did you get that on the video?
Did you get that?
She says.
Then stands up unassisted.
The body cam footage from about 20, 30 minutes later, they go, Are you doing okay?
Do you need the ambulance to check you out?
She goes, No, I'm fine.
I'm fine.
They didn't even believe that she got pepper sprayed because it had no effect.
Then she comes up with this story a week later this fucking ambulance chaser.
And says, I got six broken ribs and I got pepper sprayed, and now she wants to take me to small claims court.
So, this is Marla Rose.
She's in the same neighborhood as me.
Marla Rose thinks it's okay for people to show up to somebody's house.
She thinks that's a way to hold somebody accountable.
She says, she wants all my followers to know that if you don't like what somebody is saying, you can show up to their front door looking for a problem.
And she said that in the article.
She said, quote, What I want is for all of his Groypers and his hundreds of thousands of followers to know there are consequences to actions.
I don't want them to think you can't be held accountable.
Well, you heard her.
She believes that if you say something on the internet that somebody doesn't like, that people are perfectly entitled to go to your house looking for a problem.
Well, that's good to know.
I don't agree with that, actually.
I don't think people should do that.
I don't think anybody should show up to somebody's house looking for a problem.
Especially not for something exercising their free speech on the internet about politics.
She thinks that's how you hold somebody accountable and you're within your rights to do it.
So that's some very interesting information about her.
But anyway, that's the case.
That's a story.
I beat the case, case dismissed, charges dropped.
And let's just see what happens with her.
Let's just see what happens.
But I'm just glad that this saga has come to an end.
What a ridiculous situation.
But this is just how it is now.
And a lot of people don't realize that this is just how it is if you express these opinions in the country.
I think we all know that on some level, but it really gets to that point.
You know, a lot of people say I complain too much or whatever, and maybe I do, but I don't think anybody should feel like they're going to get murdered when they walk outside their house or something.
You know, between Charlie Kirk, what happened to me?
What's going on with Trump, the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
This is why I take this stuff seriously.
When we talk about, you know, not to spin it back into regular politics, but when we talk about the Trump movement and what a failure it's become, it's very personal to me.
It's personal to everybody that is involved in this because you realize that this is a war.
It really is.
It has every aspect of a war, which is to say that we're engaged in this pitched political battle and there's no boundaries, there's no rules.
If the left doesn't like what you're saying, they post a picture of your house on the internet and tell people to kill you.
And then some people try to.
It's like a war zone.
And I know, and everybody else that is in this that has skin in the game knows that if we don't win, they're going to kill us.
If we don't take it seriously and if we don't win, if we don't have a re imposition of law and order, if we don't have the police, if we don't have a border, if we don't have that kind of thing going on, if we don't have civil rights protections, For our ability to speak freely, protect our ability to speak on the internet, make a living, use AI, use the social platforms, then it's over for us.
So that's why we have to get serious.
I'm not interested in this politics where we say we're going to vote for Trump to buy us some more time, we're going to vote for Trump because it's a lesser of two evils.
Strategic Deterrent Capability Against Iran00:14:26
So we'll talk a little bit about Iran and then we'll get into the super chats.
Our other big news story for tonight is about the war in Iran.
And there hasn't been a major development.
We talked about this a little bit last night and I discussed it with Alex Jones on his show this afternoon.
The latest in the war in Iran is that it looks like we might be going back to war.
And I predicted this last night.
I said that it's going to be a tough call.
It really could go either way.
It's either another bluff and we're going to get more negotiations, this indefinite ceasefire, continue playing this game of chicken.
I said, or we're going to get some pretty imminent military action.
I said, and either way, on any timeline, there's going to be another confrontation with Iran, whether it's in this round of fighting or if it's in another round of fighting somewhere down the line.
I said, we're going to revisit this situation militarily.
And today, the big development out of the Pentagon is that U.S. Central Command, which is responsible for overseeing the Middle East, they are currently preparing new military options for President Trump to re engage Iran militarily.
And this is a story.
This is from Axios.
It says, President Trump is slated to receive a briefing on new plans for potential military action in Iran on Thursday from CENTCOM Commander Admiral Brad Cooper.
According to two sources, the briefing signals that Trump is seriously considering resuming major combat operations, either to break the logjam in negotiations or to deliver a final blow before ending the war.
CENTCOM has prepared a plan for a short and powerful wave of strikes on Iran, likely including infrastructure targets, in the hopes of breaking the negotiating deadlock.
The hope would be that Iran would then return to the negotiating table, showing more flexibility on the nuclear issue.
Another plan expected to be shared with Trump is focused on taking over part of the Strait of Hormuz.
To reopen it to commercial shipping.
Such an operation could include ground forces.
Another option discussed in the past and might come up in the briefing is a special forces operation to secure Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium.
Two sources told Axios that Trump currently sees the blockade as his primary source of leverage, but that he would consider military action if Iran still won't cave.
Cooper gave Trump a similar briefing on February 26th, two days before the U.S. and Israel launched the war against Iran.
One source close to Trump said that briefing contributed to Trump's decision to go to war.
So, It's really, it's more of the same, honestly.
As we have talked about repeatedly, we are in a phase of the war where there are simply no good options.
We're stuck.
Why are we stuck?
Well, we have hit Iran with everything we have.
We have dropped every kind of ordnance on them from the air, from the sea.
And that's all we're really willing to do at this point hit them with air power, hit them with sea power.
We are not willing yet to send in a ground force.
So, we're doing as much as we can do in this limited war that we are fighting.
And Iran is intact.
The regime has survived.
And more importantly, they have retained the capability to launch drones and missiles.
And this allows them to close the strait.
It also allows them to target the Gulf countries and U.S. military bases inside them, which is a powerful deterrent capability.
So, what does this mean?
It means that although the United States is a vastly more powerful armed forces, more sophisticated, bigger, smarter, more precise, even though we could control their airspace, we could drop 15,000 more bombs, we could do all these things.
We are not able to suppress their ability to fire on us.
We are not able to topple the regime.
And what that means is that as long as they have continuity of government and as long as they have these capabilities, Then they can inflict pain on us and our allies.
So we can do tons of things to them.
It will not affect them at all.
They can still do things to us that will hurt us.
They can use their drones and missiles to close the Strait of Hormuz, which strangles 20% of the world's energy supply, which is causing acute energy shortages first of jet fuel, then of diesel, then of regular gas and other oil products.
And you're starting to see that ripple across Asia and Europe.
So they're able to inflict a ton of economic pain on the global economy.
And then, moreover, using drones and missiles, they are able to target infrastructure in the Persian Gulf, the Gulf Cooperation Council countries like Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, as well as Israel and all the U.S. bases that are stationed there, all the U.S. forces, infrastructure that are in these countries.
And so, this is effectively just a stalemate, then.
Although we have the upper hand in a certain sense, in a very specific and narrow sense, because we have a more sophisticated military, be that as it may, we are not able to achieve our objectives.
We're not able to compel Iran to change their behavior.
We're not able to suppress their military capabilities.
And so, as long as that is the case, they have all the leverage.
They have all of the leverage.
And this is really herein lies the problem.
How then does the United States bring an end to the conflict when there's really no way to get what we want?
We can't make them do what we want.
We can't defeat them short of dropping a nuclear bomb on them or invading.
So, how do we win if there's no options to escalate?
How do we withdraw if there's no way to leave while getting any concessions that we demanded?
It's a lose lose situation.
Either we do things that are totally unacceptable to escalate to win and it's a Pyrrhic victory.
We drop a nuclear bomb.
That's a catastrophe.
We invade Iran.
Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands die.
American empires, we know it is over.
Total catastrophe.
But also, if we surrender, if we retreat, then it's an unambiguous strategic loss.
We will effectively be saying that we threw everything we had at a vastly inferior country.
And not only did we not achieve anything that we wanted, but they increased their power.
They gained the Strait of Hormuz.
They became more powerful after we attacked.
It's sort of an unacceptable.
It's an unacceptable strategic defeat.
So, how do we break out of this stalemate?
How do we break out of this cycle where Iran has closed the strait, they're hitting the Gulf, and we can meaningfully do nothing to them?
Well, up to this point, Trump has been looking for a way out.
And there are many different schools of thought on this.
One is that we find a creative military solution.
We can do something to Iran that we haven't thought of, that we haven't tried, and this is going to hurt them in such a way.
That they're not going to want to retaliate, something that's unacceptable to them that they wouldn't even want to consider.
They wouldn't want to endure that even if they were able to retaliate.
Something that does not involve a huge ground force, something that isn't very risky.
And so these are some of the options that are being considered like that we're going to seize Karg Island, we're going to invade one of the islands in the Strait, we're going to drop paratroopers inside Iran and seize the highly enriched uranium.
And so, this is one school of thought we're going to get creative.
We're going to think of something we haven't thought of yet, something that doesn't cross the threshold of a major escalation, something that isn't too costly, too risky, isn't a major escalation in terms of our footprint in the Middle East, but something that's going to hurt them, but hurt them in a way that isn't irreversible, hurt them in a way where they can't respond in kind.
So, we could say that the United States is calibrating.
Calibrating a form of an escalation that is going to hit that sweet spot and it doesn't need to utterly defeat Iran.
It's not going to change the nature of their capabilities, but it's going to inflict enough pain that they are going to let us escape.
They're going to let us extract perhaps a symbolic concession and they're going to let us off the hook, basically.
Excuse me, I keep burping.
And then we can leave.
So that's one school of thought.
The other school of thought is that if we keep threatening to do something like this, If we keep threatening to drop the hammer on Iran, do something unacceptable to them, bomb their civilian infrastructure, their energy, their power grid,
kill more of their leadership, kill the elements of the leadership or the factions of the leadership that are resisting a deal, well, then we can persuade Iran through the threat of force that maybe Trump is totally insane and he's willing to suffer a Pyrrhic victory, he's willing to absorb whatever they have to throw at us.
And they will just give up.
That's another school of thought.
The third thing, and this is kind of the latest option, is that Trump has now blockaded the Strait of Hormuz, putting some pressure on Iran's economy by choking off their ports.
And if we put some economic pressure on them, then that puts a countdown timer.
Now they cannot engage us indefinitely in this war.
Whereas before, time was on their side because they're hurting our economy every day.
Now their economy is being hurt every day a little bit too.
And so it can't last forever.
Whereas Iran might think that they could push us to the breaking point.
Now, maybe they'll hit their breaking point shortly before, shortly after we hit ours.
And so these are the various ideas of how we're going to approach the situation.
But what I will say about it fundamentally is all we have to do is look at these strategic considerations here.
Let's think strategically.
Let's think about vital strategic interests.
And by strategic, I mean big picture thinking about survival as a state.
So here are some facts.
Israel is pursuing regime change in Iran.
That's what it is.
Why do we want to denuclearize Iran?
Why do we want to take apart their missile program?
Why do we want to stop their proxies?
It's because we want to render them helpless.
All of those things are strategic capabilities.
What does that mean?
It means that if we launched an existential offensive on Iran, all of those capabilities would protect Iran.
They would deter a U.S. Israel attempt because all of those options Iran could deliver or carry out even if Iran were destroyed.
So let's say, for example, the U.S. drops a nuclear bomb on Iran.
Well, if Iran has a nuclear capability, then they could nuke us, they could nuke Israel.
So we would never consider nuking Iran if they have a nuclear capability.
It's a strategic deterrent capability.
But the same also goes for the missiles.
If we were to nuke Iran, We can't nuke all of Iran.
And so there are going to be places inside the country where they have thousands of ballistic missiles.
And if we nuked Iran, they're going to use those conventional capabilities to rain down on Israel, on their nuclear facilities.
They're going to rain down on the Gulf countries, maybe even on Europe for that matter.
Some of those missiles have the range even to hit Europe.
And so they don't even need a nuke.
Those conventional capabilities would be just as devastating.
It's another deterrent.
And the other capability is the proxies.
Let's say we nuke Iran and they don't have a nuke and maybe their missiles fail.
Well, then you know who will avenge them Hezbollah, the Popular Mobilization Front, the Houthi rebels, all the different factions in the Middle East that are allied with Iran.
They would retaliate against Israel and against Saudi Arabia, or they would commit terror attacks in other countries too.
So these are the three deterrent capabilities Iran has.
Consequently, these are the three things that Israel does not want them to have.
The United States does not want them to have these things because these things protect Iran from regime change.
If we dismantle the proxies, if we get them to give up the missiles, if we get them to give up nuclear enrichment, then we can confidently collapse their government and not have to worry about a second strike.
We can confidently collapse their government and not worry about mutually assured destruction.
So that's what this is about, and that's what this has always been about.
So, for Iran, this is existential.
Now, we are basically fulfilling Iran's worst nightmare.
They are concerned that one day Israel and the US are going to come and try to destroy their government, invade their country, and install a puppet regime.
And we have tried to do this twice in the last year.
Last year, we bombed their nuclear complex at Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan.
And this year, we came in and we bombed everything.
We bombed their navy regime, we bombed the nuclear complex again, assassinated their leaders.
And Iran is still in the fight.
Now, let's consider what is going to happen on a longer timeline here.
Let's say the United States leaves the conflict and says, oh, well, we did more damage against Iran.
We increased the amount of damage that we did from last year in the past 60 days, and now we're done, and we're sort of licking our wounds and we're over it.
Well, Iran knows that it's only a matter of time before we come back.
Iran knows that if we tried it before, we will try it again.
We were thinking this.
They knew we were thinking this.
And finally, we fulfilled that prophecy and we went after them.
And they know that we are just going to get back to the Pentagon and start planning the next operation where we try to overthrow their government, topple the regime, go to war with them.
We're going to think of every potentiality.
We're going to study the lessons of the war.
So they know that we're going to try to take another swing at it.
We're going to try to take another crack at it in months, a year.
If you are Iran, obviously you don't want that to happen.
So you have to reestablish deterrence.
Right now, Israel and the United States think that Iran is weak.
We hit them last year and we got off scot free.
And that's why we were probably emboldened to hit them again this year because we're thinking look, we took the nukes offline.
Now we're going to go in, take the missiles offline.
The next time we go in, we're going to cut the head off the regime.
And we're thinking it's smooth sailing.
We're so smart, we're so sophisticated.
Iran doesn't stand a chance.
They're inflicting no casualties.
It costs us nothing to take over their airspace for a couple of months and mow the grass, kill the leadership, destroy the missile launch platforms, etc.
So, what Iran needs to do in this conflict, if they know that Israel and the U.S. are seeking regime change, then they know that it's only a matter of time before we come back.
And we're going to look at them as a weak, handicapped foe that we don't really have to worry about.
So, their principal objective in this conflict is one, survive, obviously.
And then, two, they have to deter any future attack.
They need to make sure that the U.S. and Israel and the Gulf countries will never try this again.
And how do you deter a future conflict?
You make this as painful as possible economically, militarily.
And Iran has done exactly that.
They have dropped missiles and they've even used their air force to destroy.
Something like nine U.S. military bases that are absolutely obliterated, cause tens of billions of dollars in economic damage to the bases.
They've attacked Saudi and Qatari energy resources, Saudi Aramco and Qatari's cutters LNG.
They've attacked the United Arab Emirates.
They've threatened to attack desalination plants.
They've hit Israel and their nuclear facility at Dimona.
Their proxies are engaged in Lebanon, in Iraq, in Yemen, in all these other countries.
And maybe most importantly, Iran has taken control over the Strait of Hormuz.
It's something that we cannot prevent.
We can't take it back from them.
And Iran will control 20% of the world's energy.
It's catastrophic for Asia, for Europe, and then ultimately for the United States.
So, Iran is doing a pretty good job.
They've survived.
They've inflicted so much pain that think about politically.
If we, a year from now, are talking about another war in Iran, everybody is going to say, is that really a good idea?
Think about what happened last time.
Think about the $5 gas.
Think about how all the data centers, something like 50% of the new data centers that have been planned, have either been postponed or canceled.
Why do you think that is?
It's because of inflation, energy cost.
It is maybe not entirely, but significantly because of this war.
So everybody's going to say, not so fast.
This is not going to be good for us.
That's what Iran is trying to do.
Now let's think even deeper here.
So, what allows Iran to deter the United States are these capabilities.
It's because they have drones and missiles that they're able to inflict this pain on the Strait and on the Gulf.
It's because they have a nuclear enrichment program.
That this becomes a very delicate situation.
We can't collapse Iran and walk away.
We can't break it and not buy it because then there's 900 pounds of highly enriched uranium in this country that God only knows who's going to take over next.
And maybe most importantly, they can't relinquish control over the Strait because that is their primary leverage.
That is how they have us by the balls.
What does this have to do with the current situation?
So the Trump administration.
When we engaged Iran, we set out to achieve a series of objectives.
We said we want regime change.
We want to get rid of their nuclear enrichment, get the highly enriched uranium, take care of their missile program.
And then as the war progressed, we said we need to reopen the strait.
Now, for the United States to credibly claim victory in the war, we need to have some symbolic concession on one of these things.
We need to come out with a concession on nuclear or the missiles or destroy most or all of the missiles.
Or, and maybe, and we need the Strait of Hormuz back.
If we let Iran keep the Strait of Hormuz and they start charging money for every ship that goes through it, not only is that tactically bad, because then Iran gets a source of income to rebuild their military, but also it's a huge strategic blow that Iran keeps the Strait and there is a legal regime in place and a precedent that they actually have formal control over it, and also that Iran has come out the other side of the conflict having gained.
A vital waterway, having gained a very strategically important part of the world.
So, in other words, the United States cannot walk away unless we open the Strait of Hormuz and its free navigation at the minimum.
And we cannot walk away unless we get some kind of meaningful concession on nuclear or missiles.
We just can't walk away until we get it.
But Iran cannot give up either of those things.
Why would they give up the strait?
The U.S. cannot take it.
There's no military way to do it.
So Iran has it.
The United States is begging them to give it up.
Why would they?
This is their leverage.
This is in the event that the U.S. and Israel try to come back for Iran, this is their ace in the hole.
Why would they give up their secret weapon?
They won't.
They won't do it and they can't do it.
They might open it, but they're not going to give it up.
They might let the shipping go through, but only under their Supervision only with their permission.
And there's no way they're giving that up.
And then, as far as nuclear is concerned, after everything that has happened, how now are they going to give up nuclear enrichment?
They need it.
At the minimum, they need it because that deters an all out attack, which would send Iran into a failed state status.
They need it because they need the U.S. and Israel guessing about their capabilities.
And they need it because they've come this far.
If they give up the nuclear program at this point, it's like, what was it even all for?
The point is, there is still an impasse over all the critical issues.
We cannot leave unless we get control of the Strait.
They can never give us control of the Strait.
We cannot leave unless we get zero enrichment.
They're never giving that up.
And so, what that means is that there is going to be another confrontation.
It is not logical, it's not strategically rational for Iran to give up what the United States needs them to give up.
And our imperative is that they have to do those things that they cannot do.
So, where that leaves us is that Trump is going to try to bluff his way out of this and say that we're going to do an indefinite blockade and we don't care.
Of course, we care.
This is far worse for us than it is for them.
For Iran, this is a matter of survival, and Iran is a theocracy.
So, if their back is against a wall and they're fighting to stay alive, they can tolerate some economic pain.
We can't.
We're a democracy.
This is a war of choice in another part of the world.
In Iran, they might be willing to suffer the economic damage.
One, because the Iranian Revolutionary Guard will kill them otherwise.
Two, there's some sense of we're all in this together.
Like we just got bombed 15,000 times.
Yeah, the economy's going to be bad.
We're at war.
It is what it is.
War has been visited upon our country.
In the United States, we're like, hey, man, is this thing over yet?
Why is gas $5?
Why do we got to pay?
Another $200, $300 surcharge for fuel to travel to Japan for my study abroad program, to my study abroad in Japan program, group chat person.
You know, why would they, why would an American say, oh, well, hey, you know, whatever it takes, as long as there's democracy in Iran, I don't care if gas is $5 a gallon.
I don't care if like the economy crashes and there's a recession and our savings are obliterated and the housing market, like nobody in America is thinking that.
And more to the point, The midterms are coming up.
The Iranian Revolutionary Guard does not have to worry about the midterms or the elections.
Trump does.
So, Trump can sit there and say, We're going to blockade Iran indefinitely and we're just going to wait for them to make a deal.
But he can't do that.
And he can say, We're considering military options.
We're going to bomb the power plants, the bridges.
But he knows full well that if we do that to Iran, it's done.
And then Iran can do the same thing to Saudi Arabia, which is unacceptable.
And Iran will still.
Be defiant after we do that, obviously.
So there are no good options here still.
All that is really left to do is to try to find a way to spin it.
The only way out of this is to give up the ambition of regime change meaningfully.
That's the only way out.
The strategic imperatives are such that as long as we are driven to regime change in Iran, we can't walk away.
We're always going to have to worry about their missile arsenal.
Always have to worry about the nuclear enrichment.
Always going to have to worry about the straight because we want to topple them.
And there's this permanent enmity between our two countries.
So, as long as we are pursuing regime change, it's inevitable that there's going to be another confrontation, whether it's this weekend or it's in a few weeks or it's next year.
We're coming back and we're going back on a short timetable because the longer that we wait, the more missiles and drones they're building, the more they're reverse engineering our unexploded ordnance and our planes and everything else.
The more they're being supplied by Russia, the more they're hardening their country from another attack.
So it's like we're going back and we're going back soon.
The alternative is, and this is the only good option.
The only good option in the conflict is if we find a face saving way to just cut our losses and leave.
Okay, fine.
Keep this straight and we'll talk about nuclear another day.
Fine.
Keep this straight.
Charge $2 million.
Build your country.
We will talk about nuclear another day.
It didn't work.
Let's just cut our losses and be done with it.
You can even bomb them one last time.
I think that would honestly be fine.
Bomb them one last time if you must.
I don't support that, but if that is what is required, hit them one more time, even symbolically, just to say, all right, you know, here's the grand finale.
We bombed them one last time and now we're done.
We destroyed their Navy, we killed their leader, we bombed their 80%.
Of the missile launch platforms.
We won.
Yeah, you can keep the straight if you want it.
We're out of here.
That's step one.
Step two is then you meaningfully must abandon regime change.
And what that involves is restraining Israel.
End the war, open the straight.
They can have it, but open it.
End the war, open the straight.
And then you have to restrain Israel.
You got to go into Israel.
Then you need to invade Israel.
And say, listen, motherfucker, there's going to be no regime change in Iran ever.
It's never going to happen.
And if you don't like that, good luck.
You try it.
You want to nuke Iran?
Go ahead.
We'll nuke you.
That's what you got to do.
You got to go to Israel because that's where this is coming from.
That is where all of this has been generated.
And you got to say, you know what?
We're in charge.
We're the boss.
We're the global empire.
We're fighting the war.
We're done with regime change.
You're going to have to live with Iran.
And you actually then work towards peace with Iran.
You actually work towards meaningful peace.
And that means reassurances.
It means confidence.
It means rapport.
And yeah, they're tough negotiators.
They don't trust us.
We don't trust them.
And yes, they hate us.
And we hate them.
You know, our apparatus hates them too.
But we have to pursue peace.
The alternative is far worse.
The only party that is not on board with that is Israel.
It can be done.
We were on our way to that in 2023.
It was Israel that upset the apple cart with October 7th.
So, that is what you would like to see happen the U.S. extricate ourselves, open the strait, engage Iran in a meaningful dialogue, restrain Israel, and integrate them into the region.
If they have economic interdependence, if they have mutual security, if they have a collective security agreement in the Middle East, we wouldn't have to worry about this.
And we were on our way towards something like that.
If Iran and, let's say, Pakistan and Turkey and Saudi Arabia, if they all were in some kind of mutual security pact, and if they were all economically interdependent, and if the United States was, let's say, buying their oil or something like that, then everybody would be less worried about a war.
Iran would be less worried about regime change.
And so they would have confidence that they don't need all these capabilities because.
They're so integrated in the region that they know war is so unlikely.
But that is only possible if Israel is brought to heel.
That's ultimately what it is.
And I fear that not only are we not going to get that, but Israel is going to create a provocation to keep the war going.
And it might not be, like I said, this weekend, but it will be in the future.
This is Israel's moment, this is their window of opportunity, and they're not done yet.
And I fear that they're going to provoke Iran.
They're going to try to bait a confrontation.
They might create some kind of false flag scenario, and they're going to try to keep Washington at war with Iran forever until they get what they want because that's how they play.
It really comes down to this.
So that's the situation.
We'll see what happens tomorrow and this weekend when the markets close again, but that's where we are.
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 about all this.
I'm going to get set up here, and we'll take a look.
I actually didn't comment on it on the show, but it's terrible.
It's awful.
I texted him when it happened and just said, hey, man, you good?
Yeah, it's terrible.
I mean, and the guy's a coward.
It's a sucker punch.
Didn't even land.
But yeah, I feel bad for him.
He had a really shitty day.
And you know what?
This is why, listen, me and Sneeko had a little bit of a tiff.
We don't need to get into it, but he was going through a pretty rough time.
And I honestly feel for him.
People were giving him a lot of shit.
And you know what?
I should apologize publicly.
We weren't making it easier on him.
And it is true.
I have a heart for Sneeko because he was really going through a tough time.
And you could tell, you could see in the streams, he was exhausted.
Editing all day, streaming all day.
And who else does that?
He edits his own stuff.
The guy works like an animal.
He streams all day.
Then he edits all his own stuff.
You know how hard that is?
Streams eight hours a day.
Then he's editing all day, posting on YouTube.
And I'm not just glazing, it's true.
He was exhausted.
He was going through a really tough time.
He's getting punched in the face.
His Twitter got hacked.
Groypers are giving him shit.
So, you know.
We got to be a little understanding.
He was unhappy with me, and now I sort of get it, you know, because he was basically saying, Look, I'm going through this horrible time, and all your followers are just shitting down my throat all the time.
Like, you know, that really sucks.
So I sort of get it, and I feel bad.
So, yeah, it's a shame.
But I appreciate the big super chat.
He's a good dude.
I don't care what the fans say, he's a good man.
And, you know, nigga was going through it.
And I regret that we caused him any additional stress because he didn't deserve it.
Even though he was rage baiting me a little bit, let's be honest.
He was rage baiting me a little bit, but I should have been nicer.
This is why I've just been putting myself out there.
I saw this video.
I posted it on Telegram.
It's from this movie called, what is it called?
I think it's called Home.
It's with Tom Hanks, Robin Wright.
And it's about, well, I don't know.
Look it up.
But Robin Wright does this monologue where they're celebrating her 50th birthday.
And she says, You know, I turned 30, and then I never thought I would turn 50, but then I blinked, and now I'm 50.
She goes, And she says, and I never made it to Paris in the spring, and I never went to Yellowstone because I didn't have time and it was too hot.
And she goes, I just, you know, I just waited too long and I don't want to be like that anymore.
And I saw, there was like a TikTok and I saw that and I was like, damn, like, I'm going to be 30 and then I'm going to be 50 and then I'm going to be dead.
So I'm like, I better just get after it.
You ever get those, you ever get that feeling?
You should.
Because it's true.
I started the show 10 years ago, almost 10 years ago.
And time has gone by so fast, and you're like, you know, I'm going to be 28 in a few months, and then I'm going to be 30, and then I'm going to be 40 and 50.
And it's like, you really got to put yourself out there.
So I'm glad to hear that I inspired you.
You got to just fully send it.
You have to fully send it in life because you never know.
You could die tomorrow.
You don't know.
What is that?
There's a great expression that said, you could die on the battlefield.
Tomorrow, or you could live on the battlefield, or you could die in your bed tomorrow, something to that effect.
So, in 2026, we are fully sending it.
I don't give a shit.
In 2026, we are fully sending it.
We are just doing things.
We're just doing what we feel, and we just got to go for it.
I appreciate, you know, nothing weird or anything, but like, you know, for 10 grand, it's like you should get a donor dinner for that.
I mean, that's usually what happens, but I appreciate it.
Thank you so much.
But also a huge special shout out to John K., Marla Rose, Mark, Holland, DV, Francesco, Here Comes the Truth, Anthony, White Regan, Top G, Royper, Yappington, and Da Baby Groip.
Special thanks to them.
Thanks to all our super chatters, everybody that watches.
