Owen Shroyer warns Trump’s "hidden hand" strategy in 2025’s Israel-Iran conflict risks backfiring, with $300B+ spent on strikes while claiming Iran lacks nuclear retaliation capability—detecting no fallout after alleged attacks. He accuses Netanyahu of cutting off U.S. spies for a secret deal, Hollywood scriptwriters of orchestrating propaganda via films like Top Gun Maverick, and Ted Cruz’s Israeli advisor Omri Sarin of manipulating U.S. policy. A reported ceasefire clashes with regime-change theories, while MAGA voters’ exhaustion over Middle East wars could weaken Trump’s 2028 re-election odds if domestic priorities falter. Meanwhile, Democratic-led states freeze healthcare for undocumented immigrants amid budget crises, and Syria’s Damascus church bombing highlights Christian casualties ignored in media coverage. [Automatically generated summary]
you Ladies and gentlemen, it is Monday, June 23rd, 2025.
This is the InfoWars War Room, the fastest three hours on the internet.
Start now.
And of course, we are loaded after a busy news weekend where a lot of things went down, specifically in regards to the Israel-Iran war, which, depending on who you ask, the United States is now officially involved in.
And it is quite strange this back and forth, this debate.
And it's all just the purpose behind this debate of, oh, are we really at war or not?
Well, people are exchanging strikes.
So I guess we don't want to call it a war for obvious reasons because it sounds bad and it looks bad.
And now you're dealing with congressional approval and we don't have that.
So it's not a war.
We're just exchanging strikes.
We're just bombing each other.
It's not a war.
You know, we're just doing targeted military strikes and bombing campaigns.
Well, regardless of that debate, perhaps it'll get a little more momentum and attention.
At some point in time, it's not now.
We're looking at the big question.
We're looking at the big question.
And I got all the latest headlines with the different strikes by Israel, the different strikes by Iran, what happened in Qatar.
I've got the latest statements from President Trump.
But the real big question now is, is President Trump the master at the hidden hand?
Is he the master negotiator?
And I do know he's the best at not showing his cards.
And it's always been his negotiation strategy to keep everybody off balanced.
So I recognize that.
But is Trump really the master of the secret negotiations?
And then if so, what's really going on?
Or is he flying too close to the nuclear sun?
Does he have too much trust for the others he's negotiating with?
Is he misinterpreting how important these issues are to these countries and these people in the Middle East where he just thinks, oh, everybody wants peace like we do so we can make this happen?
Now, what's strange, and it's hard not to get caught up with this conversation.
It's hard not to get caught up in the weeds of social media and how relevant it's become and the conversations that are happening there.
But it's worthy of addressing it to an extent.
And we talked about it last week, and I heard Alex mention it before I came on air.
And it's just true.
It's like we've taken the MAGA movement so far.
We've taken what at that time the right wing was anti-Trump, pro-war, believed everything they saw on TV, you know, mostly, mostly fall for all the psyops.
And we've come this far into 2025.
And now they understand, okay, they lie about Russian collusion and they lie about the Bidens and they lie about COVID and they lie about masks and they lie about vaccines and they lie about elections.
It's like, okay, we're here.
Now they're even willing to admit, okay, we got fooled on the Iraq and Afghanistan war.
And then that was a disaster.
And now it's like, here we're at this point again.
And maybe I got it wrong.
I thought we would go back to like Bush era, which you could debate, but it's really like we're back in 2015, 2016 now.
And it's like the same people on the right that we were trying to tell, hey, Trump is the one, Trump is the one.
Now they're all with Trump.
Now are trying to say, hey, this isn't a good war to get involved in.
And they're not with us.
They're just not there yet.
All right, we got a lot of moving parts here.
And we've just had more developments with statements from President Trump, which, I mean, now you even have to admit you got to take it all with a grain of salt.
You have to take everything with a grain of salt.
And maybe we should just start with this clip to give everything else context.
So President Trump, this was during the 2024 election cycle, was talking to Maria Bartiromo about how what we'll call today, he engaged in the hidden hand technique in negotiations where they had a de-escalatory show of force.
So think WWE, because a lot of this is starting to feel like WWE, where it's all very scripted, it's all very coordinated.
Different people are working with the other people and the two guys in the ring know exactly who's going to take the fall and everything else.
And then they know in the next main event, the two guys that are teamed up, one of them is going to turn on him and then he's going to knock them out and then it's going to be a new team up.
So it's all starting to feel like that.
So when we talk about the hidden hand, when we talk about de-escalatory show of force, this is what we're talking about.
This is what President Trump now on the campaign cycle told Maria Bartiromo the last time he was in office about dealing with Iran.
So what Trump is saying is exactly as we're describing it, the hidden hand negotiator and de-escalatory show of force.
Now, it's probably not safe to assume that that's happening again, but we also have to realize that that is a potential.
The problem that I have is I don't like being lied to, and we're clearly being lied to.
So if you lie to me and you say, well, I have to lie to you for your own good or I have to lie, I can't show all my cards, whatever, fine, that's what you got to do.
It's like in the dark night when it's like, hey, blame me for everything and I'll take the fall.
But clearly, when you try to analyze all this, there is no consistent logic.
There is no consistent reasoning.
And when you try to do all the math and add it all up, you realize it doesn't add up.
Here's an example.
I mean, to even try to cover all the different shifts in the narrative and the different moving of the goalposts is virtually impossible.
I mean, we could sit here and have a teleprompter in front of us, but we don't do that.
But let's just look at the most recent.
So the whole story is we have to stop Iran from getting a nuke.
Now, I'll get into the specifics on that with the latest developments, but that's what we're told.
Stop Iran from getting a nuke.
So Iran is so advanced and Iran is about to get a nuke or has a nuke, they don't really know or they won't tell us the truth.
But we have to bomb it.
We have to shut it down or they're going to hit us.
That's what we were told.
That Iran is advanced enough to have a nuclear weapon and they can hit the United States with it.
Well, the message today is Iran is weak.
They are not technologically advanced and they cannot strike the United States.
Now, I would say the latter is more likely, whether they had a nuke or not, they can't hit the United States.
So that was a lie.
So they told us that lie to get us to support the bombing.
Now, in the aftermath, they're admitting it was a lie.
Now, you can get into this stack that I have.
Were there even the materials that they need for the nuke or did they even have the nukes at those facilities?
Well, golly gee, common sense would tell you, no.
If they knew the strike was coming and they'd been warned about the strike and they had 60 days, yeah, they probably moved whatever they had out of those facilities.
And now they're reporting, and you heard it here first, well, we're not seeing any radiological fallout.
No kidding.
They were betting that they didn't have nukes.
And whatever enriched uranium capacities that they had, they got it all out of there before the things hit.
Or it wasn't there to begin with.
Those are your only two logical conclusions.
Now, we'll follow up on all of this, what Trump has to say and the headlines.
But then I go back to the hidden hand and the de-escalatory show of force.
Now, why would this be going on?
Why would we have to do this?
Okay, we understand, as President Trump described it, that Iran has to show that they're tough and they have to show their people they're strong in the face of the United States.
So, okay.
And I guess from Trump's perspective, he views us the same way, or is something else going on?
Because to me, it seems that the highest likelihood is if Trump is doing a hidden hand de-escalatory show of force, then the conversations have to go something like this.
And there's reason to believe that this is what's going on.
And I've got more evidence of it today, but I'll show you the prior evidence after I make this statement.
The conversations had to go something like this.
Trump is on the phone with Iran, whoever he's talking to in Iran.
And he's saying, look, we want peace.
We don't want to get into a war with you.
We really don't even want to do these strikes.
But you know what?
I got the Israelis on my back.
And their bloodlust cannot be satiated.
And their thirst for more war has to be Gratified.
So they're never going to stop.
And I'm not going to be able to move on.
And we're not going to be able to move on unless we drop some bombs.
So we're going to go in, we're going to hit these facilities.
Now, the other interesting thing is, would you send in, because this is where it gets strange, would you really send in the men and apparently women involved in this mission?
Would you really send them in to do a mission if you didn't know it could be successful?
Would you really risk their lives if you didn't even know if the materials that you were trying to destroy were in the facility?
Would you really do that?
I don't think so.
I don't think Trump would do that.
I don't think Vance would do that.
I don't think Hegzeth would do that.
But if you had Iran in these negotiations and you said, look, we got to hit.
We got to hit you.
So we're going to fly them in.
We're going to hit you.
Let our guys fly in.
It's going to be a show of force.
We'll appease the Israelis that are just jumping at the bit to strike you.
They can't help themselves.
I'll do a show of force.
You can do a show of force in a follow-up.
And then they do that deal today in Qatar.
Most of the missiles get struck down, just like last time.
And you say, okay.
So there's a potential here that Trump had a backroom deal with the Iranians to do this de-escalatory show of force.
Now, what's the other potential proof that this could be what's going on?
Notice how angry Netanyahu has been lately that President Trump is having negotiations without him and that President Trump has cut off all of Netanyahu's spies when he's having these negotiations.
So now Netanyahu doesn't know what Trump's hand is.
Netanyahu doesn't know what Trump is negotiating with the Iranians.
And he doesn't have the spies reporting back to him telling him, hey, Trump's not actually striking them.
Trump's actually doing a deal with them to get you off their back.
Well, now all those people that would be reporting back to Netanyahu have been removed from the negotiation table.
So Trump can actually have these negotiations without Netanyahu spying on them.
So that is a potential.
But there's also the potential that this could get out of Trump's control.
There's also the potential this is already out of Trump's control.
And there's also the potential that the deal has already been done and that regime change is going to happen.
So we're just kind of looking at this, following it, looking at all the different potentials.
But it's hard to trust any of the information coming out because it just doesn't add up.
It just doesn't make sense.
And this blame Qatar for everything cope has been totally revealed now because Qatar, the base that they were strikes, that's a Qatari, that's Qatar land that they let us use.
And it's the most important strategic support base for Israel.
So, oh, Qatar is paying you to be anti-Israel.
Qatar is paying you to be anti-war.
Really, Qatar?
Maybe Qatar wants peace, and maybe Qatar doesn't want Israel to start another war because they know that their base was going to get struck since it's used to support Israel.
And Trump has just posted, congratulations, world, it's time for peace.
So, I mean, again, is this like Trump who's losing control, trying to regain the narrative?
Or is he doing hidden hand, de-escalatory show of force?
So I don't put too much stock into it yet, just because we don't know.
And really, only time will tell.
But here's some of the latest in the headlines, and then we'll get Trump's statements in regards to it as well.
Iran fires missiles at U.S. airbase in Qatar.
Doha says attack intercepted.
No casualties.
Okay, so Iran maybe says, all right, we're about to strike Qatar.
So just be ready.
Okay, we're ready.
Intercepted.
Iran strike hits Israeli electric infrastructure.
Thousands lost power.
So the Israelis continue to have to live in and out of bases.
They continue to get hit by Iran.
U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran nuclear sites.
Are there radiation risks?
No, because there was likely nothing in there.
Satellites show damage to Iran's nuclear program.
Experts say it's not destroyed.
Officials concede they don't know the true fate of Iran's uranium stockpile.
So they really don't know what's going on.
Now, if Iran is this paper tiger, if Iran is this mouse that roared, as we're being told, then they obviously lied about their nukes.
They obviously lied about their nuclear capabilities.
And if Iran has just spent its WAD striking Qatar and they're broke now, then the whole thing was a lie.
Then we were lied to from the very beginning.
And I think that's a pretty safe bet to make, considering we know that Netanyahu, and Mossad, who's running this bad intelligence, who's feeding America bad intelligence, who's propagandizing Americans, who's lying to Americans to get them involved in another Israeli war in the Middle East, another Israeli regime change war in the Middle East.
We know that they lie to do that.
So I'd say it's a pretty safe bet we were lied to.
And if Iran is this paper tiger, as now they're claiming, so we went from Iran has nukes, they're going to strike New York tomorrow, to Iran is weak, they don't even have the technological abilities to hit the U.S. And by the way, six missiles into Qatar, They're spent, they're out, they're broke, they're done.
So that doesn't add up.
So we were lied to.
I don't like getting lied to.
And whether it's the Trump administration or the Biden administration or Bush administration or Obama administration or the next administration, I'm not going to sit here and lie for the administration.
Now, again, Trump has his own plans.
He's doing negotiations.
We'll see what the final thing is.
And I have people attacking me saying, well, why haven't you totally turned on Trump?
It's all Trump's fault.
Well, I don't know that yet.
I'm in wait and see mode with Trump.
What I do know, what is clear now, is that Netanyahu is lying.
Israel is the one starting these wars.
And it's not Qatar.
It's not agents of Qatar that are here propagandizing America.
It's agents of Israel.
So wittingly or unwittingly, intentionally or unintentionally, Donald Trump has exposed how Israel has agents operating all over our media, including social media, and has spies all over the DC apparatus trying to drag us into more war and control our Congress with APAC money.
So whether that was intentional or not from Donald Trump, that is now a done deal.
The sites we hit in Iran were totally destroyed, and everyone knows it.
Only the fake news would say anything different in order to try and demean as much as possible.
And even they say they were pretty well destroyed.
Working especially hard on this falsehood is Allison Cooper of Fake News CNN, dumb Brian L. Roberts, chairman of Concast, John Carl of ABC Fake News, and always the losers again.
The Concast NBC fake news.
It never ends with the sleaze bags in the media, and that's why their ratings are at an all-time low, zero credibility.
Well, nobody, it's kind of like the same thing.
It's like, hey, I don't want Iran to have nuke.
I'm no fan of Iran.
So, you're with Iran.
You're with the Bulas.
No, I'm not.
That's Israeli propaganda.
Oh, that's Qatars paying you to say that.
No, that's just me being honest.
That's just me reporting on what's clearly in front of my face.
So I don't know if the sites were totally destroyed.
I don't know if they still had their enriched uranium or their nuclear weapons there.
I'd say it's likely they didn't.
Maybe they completely destroyed the facilities.
Maybe they didn't.
It's unlikely that they had anything there to be destroyed by the time we hit them.
And if you look at the history of Trump negotiating with Iran, it's likely they had a backroom deal.
And that's why Trump was sitting here trying to clear out all the Netanyahu agents before he could get the deal done.
And then they'll say, oh, well, now you're fake news.
Now you're with the left.
Now you're with the fake news media.
No, I'm just telling you the truth.
But it's the same game.
And now the Jewish insider is reporting, Pickaxe Mountain, Iran's lesser-known underground nuclear facility, deeper than Fordo.
Oh, there's new nuclear facilities now.
Oh, yeah.
And if Mossad has their inbeds in all of these agencies, which wouldn't surprise anybody, then you'd think they would have already reported this and you'd think they'd be able to really confirm or not whether or not the strikes had 100% success rate.
Oh, but now Israel says it has delayed Iran's nuclear bomb by at least two to three years.
Oh, yes.
Well, because we don't want to just say we've permanently destroyed it yet because we might need another war in the Middle East.
We might need to drag the United States into another Israeli war.
So, oh, so first it was Israel can do it on its own.
Then it was, okay, never mind.
We need the U.S. involvement, but it's just strikes.
Now it's, oh, we're talking about regime change.
Now it's, oh, there's other nuclear facilities that we need striked, but we didn't completely eliminate it.
So, you know, the U.S. is still in the game here.
We still, you know, we're still in the game here, right?
You guys are still with us if we call you the bomb, right?
First they could handle it.
Oh, that was a lie.
Then it was just the nuclear facility.
Oh, now it's regime change.
Now it's, oh, there's more nuclear facilities and you didn't destroy it.
So we might need you to come back in two to three years.
It's all a game.
Iran has nukes and it's aimed at the United States of America.
Iran is so weak, they can't even build more than six bombs and they're spent and they can't even hit us with them.
It's just lie after lie after lie.
Now, the president of Iran, Mazoud Pezhkian, says we are ready to discuss and cooperate to build confidence in the field of peaceful nuclear activities.
However, we do not agree to reduce nuclear activities to zero under any circumstances.
So they want to enrich uranium for civilian use.
It's what they've said since day one.
But how could you blame Iran, whether you believe this or not?
How could you blame Iran for wanting to have a nuclear weapon when they know many of their regional neighbors and enemies have nuclear weapons and won't play by the same rules, won't adhere to the same standards that they force Iran to adhere to.
Aka Israel.
Now, when we come back from this break, we're going to read the latest from President Trump.
We'll also hear from Tulsi Gabbard, Marco Rubio.
I got a large list of people we're going to hear from here: Bill Clinton, Thomas Massey, J.D. Vance.
So we're going to do a wide spectrum of opinions and analysis here as we deal with this ongoing situation.
But here's kind of the problem, and I'm not going to get too much into the issue with MAGA, our MAGA's base, but there's something building here that's not good, and you might see an end result in New York City tomorrow.
And look, there's undeniable Israeli influence or even just outright control of Americans' foreign policy.
This is undeniable.
And it's undeniable now that they have their agents and assets embedded everywhere in America.
This is right in front of your face.
It's as obvious as a sunrise with no clouds in the sky, a sunset as clear as night sunset.
And you just talk about it and they say, you're an anti-Semite.
You're a Jew hater.
Well, gee, isn't that strange?
I know where this goes because they're trying to pass these anti-Semitism laws.
You know where this goes, right?
So we're getting news out of Israel that they're going to refuse to have peace here.
They're going to continue to attack Iran, which I think just proves everything.
It just proves everything.
And, you know, I think one thing is pretty clear here.
Israel has no allies.
They don't view anybody as an ally.
Everything is an asset to Israel.
And if you just look at the recent developments, here's Trump trying to negotiate peace, and here's Israel saying, nope, we're going to keep striking.
Okay.
Gotcha.
Oh, just strike the nuke psyches.
Nope, we need regime change.
We don't need your help.
Yes, we do.
Yeah, it's pretty clear that Israel doesn't view anyone as an ally.
Only assets.
Think about it.
Israel starts a war, and then they ask you to finish it.
Then, when the war reaches their land, they run to the bunkers that you paid for, or they run to the airports that you paid for to flee, or they drive on the roads that you paid for to flee, and then they use their foreign passport to go hide in another country.
Does that sound good?
Does that sound like a country that views anybody as an ally?
Does that sound like a proud, strong country that starts wars and finishes them and stands strong and holds their ground?
There are estimates that half a million people have now fled Israel.
Half a million Israelis have fled.
Now, a lot of Israelis are protesting Netanyahu.
A lot of Israelis don't like what Netanyahu is doing, but you don't hear about that.
So they flee.
And then they ask you to finish the war for them as they flee on the roads that you paid for, the airports that you paid for, or the bunkers that you paid for.
And when you're saying, okay, let's try to get a peace deal done now, Israel says, not so fast.
Did I hear former President Medvedev from Russia casually throwing around the N-word, nuclear, and saying that he had other countries that would supply nuclear warheads to Iran?
Did he really say that, or is it just a figment of my imagination?
If he did say that, if confirmed, please let me know immediately.
The N-word should not be treated so casually.
I guess that's why Putin's the boss.
By the way, if anyone thinks our hardware was great over the weekend, far and away the strongest and best equipment we have, 20 years advanced over the pack, is our nuclear submarines.
They are the most powerful and lethal weapons ever built.
And just launched the 30 tomahawks.
All 30 hit their mark perfectly.
So in addition to our great fighter pilots, thank you, captain and crew.
President Trump also begging for oil prices to stay down.
Everyone, keep oil prices down.
I'm watching.
You're playing right into the hands of the enemy.
Don't do it.
You can read a lot into that.
Who's the enemy?
It's not politically correct to use the term regime change, but if the current Iranian regime is unable to make Iran great again, why wouldn't there be regime change?
MIGA!
They actually did it.
They actually did it.
Now, of course, when you see MIGA, you're not thinking of Iran, you're thinking of Israel, which clearly MIGA, make Israel great again, has been the top priority so far for this administration.
Now, I'm willing to wait and see what the final results are.
And so that's why I'm also getting attacked from both sides saying, why aren't you more critical of Trump?
Well, I'm critical of Trump when it's time to be, but I'm not convinced he's totally sold us out yet.
I'm not convinced that he's totally owned by the Israelis yet.
Only time will tell with that.
And it doesn't make a difference.
He's already president.
But really, Miga, that's, I mean, it is, it's funny, but it's also sad.
But part of it, again, you know, there's this idea, this concept that somehow Trump is really in control of everything, and he's not.
So this whole thing could have walloped him just like it walloped the rest of us.
Because this is the problem, and I'm going to get to the rest of these clips of people responding to it.
The problem is that the original Trump base that has been here since 2015 has come such a long way.
We've drugged so many people along with us to the finish line.
We've gotten people so close to the point of no return where they understand 9-11 was an inside job or all these other things were lies.
Now the media is fake news and everything else.
And we've got them so far.
And now we've gotten to this point and it's like all of that progress has just been erased and they're right back to falling for the same propaganda.
So there's this belief, though, that, you know, Trump knows everything.
He can control everything.
Well, no, he could have been just as blindsided by this Israel-Iran war as the rest of us.
So he had to reshuffle and reprioritize to deal with it.
But that's what it is.
And all of the never Trumpers, which is provable, by the way, with a simple internet search, who's celebrating the strikes on Iran more than anybody else?
It's actually sick, to be honest.
I think the most vile creatures, I think truly some of the most vile and disturbed and mentally unstable people probably need to be institutionalized are members of the media who cry for war and celebrate death and destruction.
These are truly deranged people that are mentally unstable and likely belong in a straitjacket.
There's something truly disturbed about a member of the media calling for more war and then celebrating it.
But it's even worse when it's figures like Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro, who were never Trumpers, who wrote multiple stories and did multiple broadcasts saying they would never vote for Trump ever.
And now they feel they're in control of the Trump administration and they feel they're in control of MAGA.
And guess what they're doing?
They're throwing overboard all the people that actually built MA.
They're throwing overboard all the people that actually suffered for 10 years to get us here.
Now, I'm not surprised.
That doesn't surprise me, behavior like that from Levin or Shapiro, who are loyal to Israel.
They're not loyal to America.
America is an asset to them, not a homeland, not a country.
It's an asset.
So it doesn't surprise me.
But to sit here and watch them, I mean, Trump is now in control of MAGA.
I don't disagree with him on that.
But it's like, you do realize if it was Levin and Shapiro that had their way, you would have never had a President Trump.
So all they've done is they've just stolen this movement and turned it into an Israel-first movement.
That's all they've done.
And they want to throw everybody overboard that actually built MAGA, totally unceremoniously.
So people just report on this neutrally observable phenomenon.
They are observing, witnessing, it's undeniable, Israel's influence, if not total control over our foreign policy and maybe this administration.
And they say, well, this is strange.
I didn't get tax cuts yet.
I didn't get mass deportations yet.
I didn't get the Epstein client list yet.
I didn't get the full JFK files yet.
I didn't get deep state arrests yet.
I didn't get January 6th truth revelations yet.
I mean, I can go on and on and on, but we didn't get any of the American first policy yet, but we got Israel first.
We got strikes for Iran.
We got that done, and that took just a couple of days.
But all the stuff that we actually voted for, no.
The America first agenda, no.
But the Israel First Strike Iran agenda, that just took a matter of days, like no pain at all.
But oh, the stuff that's actually concerning to the American citizens, that's too hard.
We can't, I don't know, I don't know if we'll be able to do that.
Oh, you want us to strike Iran?
Tomorrow, we got it.
No problem.
So people are just reporting on this and they're saying, well, gee, this is strange phenomenon.
How does Israel have so much influence?
And this thing just hits MAGA like a hypersonic missile from behind and they're like, whoa, this is strange.
If not, it's going to be long-term war, and then we're on the same path.
But I would say right now, where it stands, what you're going to see happen is the Democrats will win the midterms.
They'll probably get five, 10 seats advantage because 15% of the MAGA coalition just won't show up to vote.
That's probably a low number, but guaranteed 15%.
And then it's going to become such an issue that's going to overwhelm both sides of the political aisle.
It's going to become a populist issue, which is going to be the decoupling from the Middle East and the severing of ties with Israel.
This is inevitable.
And you can doubt me on this now, but it's going to be, that'll be, that'll be like the anti-Trump of 2015.
It's like, oh, Trump will never get in.
He's this.
Oh, they'll never be anti-Israel.
Oh, he'll never be able to overwhelm Israel.
No, no, no.
That will be the 2028 story.
Just like Trump was never going to make it, didn't have the odds.
Everybody was against him.
And then he came through and won it and the rest is history.
It'll be the exact same thing with Israel.
Oh, you can't win and be anti-Israel.
All the same stuff.
And then you'll see the candidates that do the best in 2028 will be anti-Israel.
And you're looking at, in my view, if they won it, a Massey green ticket versus a Newsom-Cortez ticket in 2028.
That's where I think it goes.
And they say, oh, Vance Rubio, Vance Rubio.
If this situation ends up in a long-term war, if we end up involved in the Middle East more than, let's say, another month, if boots go on the ground, done.
Over.
Then a Republican won't even win.
But it won't be Vance Rubio.
They'll have the stink of the Middle East on them now.
I remember in 2015 being laughed at for supporting Trump.
I remember 2015 being laughed out at dinners and laughed out of media events and laughed out of political circles for saying Trump was going to win in 2015.
And I'll tell you what, Tammy Bruce isn't helping.
Listen to Tammy Bruce over the weekend.
This is so crazy, you almost have to hear it twice.
Listen.
First, let's just go four and five back to back without me interrupting.
Just listen to these two clips back to back.

The pride of being able to be here and do work that facilitates making things better for people and in the greatest country on earth, next to Israel.
It's an honor to be able to make a difference and to be able to speak in this regard with an administration that I love so much and that I feel genuinely represented by.
It's a real honor.
I am not, and sadly not.
I am Italian, which I've always thought maybe the Italians were the lost tribe.
So that could be the dynamic there.
But, you know, so I'm honored.
I don't mind people thinking that at all.
I do recall it's interesting.
After the October 7th attacks, I went to a jeweler in the World Trade Center to get the star of David to wear on the air.
And he knows me, and he said, but you know people will think you're Jewish.
And I said, I hope so.
And the point is, is that at a time like that, and certainly throughout history, is that we all have to be Jewish.
This woman has been a member of the American media.
This is a spokesperson for the State Department.
And she's telling you, Israel is more important and Jews are more important.
These are not my words.
unidentified
Let her take it to break.
The pride of being able to be here and do work that facilitates making things better for people and in the greatest country on earth, next to Israel.
It's an honor to be able to make a difference and to be able to speak in this regard with an administration that I love so much and that I feel genuinely represented by.
That's good as we're up against the first hour break.
I'm telling you, folks, this age, the obsession and the brainwashing on Israel, it's done.
It's done after 2028.
And Israel knows it, and that's why they're so desperate right now.
That's why they're acting so desperately because they know it.
Doubt me if you want, but I'll be proven right.
You know, I said this a couple weeks ago.
You recall.
And I said, you know, this whole thing has given us a renewed sense of purpose because everything kind of became this amalgamation behind Trump and trying to save the country peacefully and politically.
But in the last 10 days, you've seen the separation between real, truthful reporters and cheerleaders.
You've seen the difference of people that are just in a cult of personality versus people who are Principled on the issues.
So it's given Infowars a renewed sense of purpose, at least for me.
And it separated InfoWars yet again from the PAC, like hyperspeed that we talked about last week.
So I'm not happy about it.
I'd rather see this MAGA coalition completely dominate politically and win victories for decades to come.
But it's been completely, you know, blown up by a hypersonic missile from the Middle East, and now we're back into that.
So we'll see what happens.
As President Trump says, congratulations, world, it's time for peace as bombs are exploding everywhere.
So we'll see.
If Trump has the master hidden hand and he's doing de-escalatory show of force, then I'll tip my cap and we'll report on it as is.
But now reports are coming out that Israel's striking again.
So, oh yeah, Israel breaking a ceasefire.
Where have I seen that before?
Golly gee.
Now we got more on this, folks.
We really appreciate the continued support of the audience.
We thank you for tuning in every day.
We thank you for sharing the links with friends and family.
And that really is the best way for people to hear about us.
That's kind of the story I get when I run into people.

We also have the Midnight Rider Limited Edition Silver Fundraiser Coin.
And isn't it incredible?
You know, you just, nobody's perfect.
I guess, does anybody even really try?
Is it possible?
But, you know, you just give it to God.
And that's so much of what happens here, honestly, at InfoWars.
And it's really why we're so just on point with everything.
It's like we might have different political conversations or issues or approaches, but just like always on God.
Isn't it amazing?
We come out with this coin when Infowars is yet again separating itself from the pack as the Paul Revere's.
That's just incredible to me.
That's just totally, that's just totally a God thing.
But that's the coin.
That's the coin.
Just came out with it last week.
Had no idea we'd be separating ourselves again as the Paul Reveres in the media, but here we are.

All right, we're monitoring the situation now.
Iran is agreeing to peace negotiations.
Now, again, you can trust Iran or not.
This is just the latest.
Iran is coming out saying we're ready to negotiate.
Trump is coming out and saying we're negotiating.
Congratulations.
We're going to get world peace.
And now there's emerging reports that Israel has actually struck Iran again.
Right after Trump and Iran are about to negotiate again.
Right after Trump is calling for peace again.
The reports are Israel is striking again.
Jeez, how much longer did we have to put up with this, man?
I'm telling you.
I'm telling you, man.
And I think I don't even know if I want to get into it.
But it is a psychological phenomenon.
There's no denying it.
And that's why you see people like Mark Levin hyperventilating.
He's now calling for more nukes, by the way.
He now wants to give Ukraine nukes to bomb Russia.
I mean, this man is a psychotic.
He's a psychotic.
And he has Trump's ear.
But he's not the only one.
See him all over.
It's Netanyahu.
It's his leadership.
I just don't get it.
Is it really this...
Do they really think that the whole world turning on them is not going to end badly?
Now, this is going to be a very interesting situation.
If these reports are true, and then we find out what it's really about, with Israel striking Iran after Trump calls for peace, this will be, what, the third time that Netanyahu has undermined President Trump's negotiations?
The third time?
If Trump lets him to get away with that for a third time, man, that's bad.
And the people who say that, it doesn't matter if the order was given.
They have everything they need to build nuclear weapons.
Why would you bury things in a mountain 300 feet under the ground?
Why do they have 60% enriched uranium?
You don't need 60% enriched uranium.
The only countries in the world that have uranium at 60% are countries that have nuclear weapons because they can just quickly make it 90. They have all the elements they have.
But even if you believe that Iran has all this stuff, and then you say, well, they're the bad guys.
Does Israel meet the same standards that they force upon Iran?
Well, no.
Well, why not?
Well, they're the good guys, really?
Israel's bombing more foreign countries than any other country on earth right now.
But they're the good guys.
They're working for peace.
unidentified
We've got another from Rubio talking about the potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz in clip 21. Do you expect Iran to move to close the Strait of Hormuz to try to disrupt oil transportation across the world?
But we want peace in the context of them not having a nuclear weapons program.
And that's exactly what the president accomplished last night.
I really think there are two big questions for the Iranians here.
Are they going to attack American troops or are they going to continue with their nuclear weapons program?
And if they leave American troops out of it and they decide to give up their nuclear weapons program once and for all, then I think the president has been very clear.
We can have a good relationship with the Iranians.
We can have a peaceful situation in that region of the world.
We have to step back a little bit, Kristen, and remind ourselves that we negotiated aggressively with the Iranians to try to find a peaceful settlement to this conflict.
It was only when the president decided that the Iranians were not negotiating in good faith that he took this action.
He didn't take it lightly, but I actually think it provides an opportunity to reset this relationship, reset these negotiations, and get us in a place where Iran can decide not to be a threat to its neighbors, not to be a threat to the United States.
And if they're willing to do that, the United States is all ears.
So Trump launches MAGAPAC, an effort to oust Representative Massey from Congress.
You know, here's the thing, folks.
And he's going on a tirade about Massey.
Is Trump intentionally trying to build up Massey?
Because that's all that's happening here.
I mean, that's all that's happening here.
And every time this has happened, Massey has had a windfall of donations, including $100,000 just this weekend.
And you're not going to unseat Massey in his district in Kentucky.
So that's just not going to happen.
But it's like this weird, is Trump trying to build up Massey here?
Because that's what's happening.
Or are the APAC lobby telling Trump go after Massey because he doesn't take our money.
So we got to get him out of there for some guy that will.
But none of this is going to matter in 2028 because it'll be the final.
APAC is so exposed now.
The Israeli influence and money is so exposed now.
It's such a it's it's it's really such a political turnoff now that it's only getting worse.
All the polls indicate it.
All the conversations indicate it.
Anybody being honest will tell you that, no matter where they stand on the issue, that's what's happening.
And so it'll probably, I mean, I'd say 2028, maybe 2032, taking money from APAC, you'll be unelectable.
You'll just, you'll be unelectable at that point.
That's how bad it'll get, especially if we do get involved in Iran.
Then it'll be even worse.
But yeah, you'll have if Massey wants to run, you'll have a Massey green ticket, I think.
That'll be a slaughter knocker in 2028.
But Trump is actually building up Massey.
Whether that's intentional or not, I don't know.
But that's actually what's happening.
By the way, this is what I'm talking about when I say we're leaving an opening for the Democrats here.
This is Jordan Klepper, who is certainly not even a toe on the right side of politics.
Totally on the left.
And I guarantee them to you, a lot of political liberals feel the same way about what Marjorie Taylor Greene and what Thomas Massey are doing right now.
Mr. Netanyahu, who has long wanted to fight Iran because that way he can stay in office forever and ever.
He's been there most of the last 20 years.
But I think we should be trying to diffuse it.
And I hope President Trump will do that.
I hope anybody there will do that.
We've got to stop.
We've got to convince our friends in the Middle East that we'll stand with them and try to protect them.
But choosing undeclared wars in which the primary victims are civilians who are not politically involved one way or the other, just want to live decent lives, is not a very good solution.
Do I think that we have to try to stop Iran from having a nuclear weapon?
I do.
I tried at that, and we had some success.
But we don't have to have all this outright constant killing of civilians who can't defend themselves and they just want a chance to live.
I rewatched it just to have my mind blown this weekend.
Oh, it's literally the same plot.
This is from WikiLeaks.
Hollywood script writers who say they are Jewish have been planting the mental seeds for war with Iran for years, including Top Gun Maverick.
And then they shared a Julian Assange speech from 2013 predicting it.
So there you go.
And, you know, all these people want to come out against Alex Jones and Julian Assange.
And I just say this.
You know what?
I'm going to bet with the guys that have been right for 30 years.
I'm going to bet with the guys that have suffered and lost everything for their fight for truth and liberty.
Pretty amazing, isn't it?
What are the odds?
Remember, we had that movie that came out about a toxic train derailment in a small town in Ohio, and then there was a toxic train derailment in a small town in Ohio?
Remember how they came out with Top Gun Maverick about American pilots doing an impossible mission to penetrate into a nuclear facility that was enriching uranium for a nuclear bomb, and then American pilots went and bombed and penetrated a nuclear facility that was enriching uranium?
unidentified
*laughter*
I mean, you got to give it to the people that run the world.
They just flaunt it right in front of your face, man.
Oh, no.
Well, I'm sure it's just a coincidence.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Kind of like the James Bond movie that talked about the spy grid and the James Bond movie that talked about engineered bioweapons that are genes specific.
Now that's all mainstream news.
Yeah, it's amazing, isn't it?
It's amazing how that happens.
But hey, just take everything at face value.
Just go to the buffet of political slop and start eating.
Not here.
Not here.
By the way, you know, I got some other interesting things here as we hit the halfway point.
Max Blumenthal with the Gray Zone, who has done a great job, I believe, does a great job in covering all issues in the Middle East.
Of course, they get attacked all the time, even though it's run by Jewish Americans.
They say, oh, they're anti-Semitic.
They're literally Jewish Americans, but whatever.
Listen to this interesting point about Ted Cruz and who advises him with Max Blumenthal and Judge Napolitano in clip eight.
Gary's Wild Card Segment00:04:34
unidentified
Absolutely dynamite decimation of Ted Cruz.
And this shows you what Ted Cruz really is.
It's just a hollow shell for AIPAC.
His top advisor on this issue, I'm not sure if he's still in his office, but for years and years, I think he still is, is named Omri Sarin.
And this just came to me.
And he's an Israeli.
He is an Israeli who is in the United States to burrow within the national security architecture and lead figures like Ted Cruz to use the U.S. military, its assets, and our blood and treasure as Americans on behalf of this tiny little foreign apartheid state.
And Omri Sarin's wife, Mehrav, was actually inserted into the Trump administration without anyone knowing by Mike Waltz.
And she was finally drummed out about three weeks ago.
And the Muslims and the Arabs and the Taliban, the Afghanistan, the Pakistanis, Iraq, Iran, Syria, Turkey, Israel, the Palestinians, they all have the purpose on this earth, but they're not using the purpose God gave them to use.
They're using the fear that they have by not using God's purpose.
And the best way to stop wars is to have women fight naked.
Because if women fight naked and the men stand aside, the women will end up having a cup of war party, and the war will be over.
unidentified
Well, the woman bunch of war because we're starting to put the women into the military.
And they're just propagandized like everybody else.
So it's like, oh, you're an anti-Semite.
Well, look, if you look at this thing logically, if you try to reach a logical conclusion, you realize Israelis are going to suffer the most if this continues.
And, you know, they've been fed a bunch of lies just like everybody else.
So it's like, yeah, I give the Israelis a hard time.
I give Americans a hard time.
But we're all victims of the same propaganda.
We're all victims in this same global mafia that wants to blow us all up and conquer the world in a corporate government world slave system.
And for whatever reason, they just run a lot of the propaganda through Israel and then they run the control of the U.S. system out of Israel.
And I'm sure there's no group.
There's a group over here.
And then there's, you know, everybody's, there's all kinds of different groups vying and fighting for power.
It's like, oh, you're an anti-Semite.
You don't support Israel.
You don't think people like Mark Levin and Benjamin Netanyahu put Israelis in danger and they don't give a damn?
Of course Mark Levin doesn't give a damn.
He's sitting comfortably in America.
Of course he doesn't give a damn.
And by the way, most of these Israeli Jews probably don't think very highly of American Jews anyway.
So no, it's not anti-Semitic.
It's actually very supportive.
It's actually pro-Semitic.
How do you like that?
It's actually pro-Semitic to call out the corruption in Israel, just like it's pro-America to call out the corruption in America.
But I'm digressing.
I'm digressing because it kind of all leads to these jokes anyway, and this is just how people feel about it now.
This clip has been seen tens of millions of times now.
And I mean, look, Americans are very spoiled brats and separated from reality in many such cases, too.
That's why you see a lot of these Americans that are just like, it's out of this world how completely detached they are from the realities of war.
And we're lucky that's the case.
We are extremely blessed, extremely lucky.
But, you know, empires rise and fall fast, real fast.
And so you don't want to see that happen to America.
But it's like the same thing.
Americans are entitled and disgusting the way they celebrate war that they would never go volunteer to fight in.
It's disgusting when Americans do that.
And then the Israelis do the same thing, except they're kind of forced into the war when they have to live with it or they're forced to join the military.
But it's mostly just optics.
They just drop bombs and then go in afterwards.
But no, so you have the entitled Americans that the world feels that way about, but it's now the Israelis are now taking the cake as the most entitled, petulant rats on earth.
And so you're going to see more humor like this from Romanian comedian Nicole Jennis in clip 16. Move away, everyone.
unidentified
I'm fleeing from a war zone.
I'm Israeli.
I need enfris right now.
Oh no.
Oh no.
I'm so sad about it.
Passport.
What brings you to Romania?
There are bombs everywhere.
Iran hit Tel Aviv.
Pray for us.
Pray for us.
Of course.
Ladies and gentlemen's attention.
Let's pray on Israel.
For Israel.
Dear God, may you bless them all.
Bless.
My English is not very good actually, but it's okay.
Everyone now, kneel before the passport of divine entitlement.
I want to talk with your boss.
I want to talk with a higher up right now.
Of course, let me call God.
I hear he's the real estate agent who gave you the deed to someone else's house.
Hello, God.
Is Nadia here?
I'm having here one of your chosen tenants.
Yeah.
It's having a mental breakdown at the immigration.
It wants a global do-over, if it's possible.
I'm being persecuted right now.
Persecuted?
My dear, you're just standing in line for passport control, not Nuremberg.
Welcome to democracy.
I had to leave everything behind.
Except your entitlement.
That made it through customs just fine.
We want safety.
So did the children in Gaza, but they did not get the window seat out.
This is absurd!
Well, you bombed so many countries at the same time and now you need Romania to feel safe.
What happened with the God-chosen people?
God does not agree with this anymore or how does it work?
This is a humanitarian crisis!
Wow, you learned a new word.
It's funny how you start using it when the bombs came your way.
You thought it's only one way?
It's not the other.
Wow.
Okay, so entry granted, let me put the stamp.
And please restrain from turning shared places into eternal homes and hotel lobbies into settlements.
Excuse me.
And if you see any ruins, please do not put a flag and call it Israel 2.0 just because somebody called Abraham passed that 3,000 years ago with no proof.
Next, why there are so many divine tenants of the earth throwing theological tantrums?
I mean, I guess the Israeli leadership cares enough about them to know, yeah, we're kind of putting their lives in danger with all this bloodshed and wars we're starting.
So let's at least give them a bomb shelter.
And then probably at least half a million.
It's Being reported since October 7th, Israelis have fled.
Most of them have dual passports, dual citizenship.
So they fled, gone to the airports, the U.S. taxpayer paid for, used their roads, the U.S. taxpayer has paid for, and they fled.
So they start all the wars and then they flee.
So I mean, again, I'm kind of joking about it, but I'm also like, why not?
Why not just go make Israel the 51st state?
Why not?
They're all leaving.
They're all hiding in bunkers.
You think the IDF is going to go toe-to-toe with the American soldiers?
Featuring some of the all-time greats like they hate us for our freedoms and the smoking gun could come in the form of a mushroom cloud.
Let's not forget about hits like it's a civilian versus Islamo fascism.
You are either with us or you are with the terrorists.
And of course, the big lie.
We will be greeted as liberators.
It's now that that's why I call warmongering with George Bush, Dick Cheney, and Donald Rumsfeld.
And then you have all these people that built their brand off of MAGA, so they really have no other choice.
Attacking Alex, attacking me, attacking all these other people that were there before Trump will be there after Trump.
Like, oh, you said you don't want Trump to turn out like George Bush.
You're anti-Trump.
We'll crush you.
We're coming for you now.
Your entire personality and brand is MAGA.
What are you going to do in four years?
And by the way, you weren't there in 2015.
You weren't there in 2016.
You haven't suffered at all for your support of Trump.
You've only enriched yourself immensely.
Like, oh, you can't, yo, don't have political debate.
Don't have geopolitical discussion.
Just simp and shill.
So, you know, I don't get into the business of defending Alex because I've been here long enough and he doesn't need my defense.
I will say his shows the last couple of weeks have been paramount.
But, you know, I'll say in defense of Alex here to close the segment, you know, I think I'm going to go with the guy that's been right for 30 years.
I think I'm going to go with the guy who they have memes made after him, the Alex Jones was right jar.
I think I'm going to go with the guy whose clips from 20 years ago and 30 years ago get millions of views every time they are posted online.
I think I'm going to go with the guy that's been attacked relentlessly for telling the truth in media.
I'm going to go with the guy that's the most censored for telling the truth.
I'm going to go with the guy that they're trying to crush every day.
I'm going to go with the guy that built the operation, that's changed the world.
I think I'm going to go with that guy.
Yeah.
I think I'm going to make my bet on that guy.
And I think it's a pretty safe bet against somebody that is nothing more than a Trump cheerleader MAGA brand that's going to be irrelevant in four years.
So I'm sorry, I got a little personal there, but you know what?
I don't do the Alex Jones defense.
He doesn't need it.
He doesn't ask me to.
But you know what?
It's not just about Alex at this point.
Because we're in the 2015, 2016 cycle all over again.
And we're going to have to separate the cheerleaders from the players.
And that's what's happening now.
So it's actually heartbreaking to me.
It's kind of bittersweet because it's like, well, now InfoWars once again rises to the top.
Infowars once again more relevant than ever.
Infowars has now separated itself from the PAC, which was this huge MAGA hive, MAGA herd of people.
And now it's all being separated again.
So it's like, selfishly, I can be like, well, this is great for us.
And then my head laughs at my heart and says, oh, you naive fool.
So that's where we're at now.
We'll continue to monitor this, ladies and gentlemen, as it looks like it's finally starting to hit the Western press that Israel has struck Iran.
Right as Trump is calling for peace and declared world peace, right as Trump said it was over, right as Trump is calling for de-escalation, right as Trump is negotiating again, Netanyahu literally blows it up.

I'm going to read this latest statement here.
As it's being reported, Israel is striking Iran again.
This was President Trump 10 minutes ago.
Congratulations to everyone.
It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a complete and total ceasefire in approximately six hours from now when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in-progress final missions for 12 hours, at which point the war will be considered ended.
Officially, Iran will start the ceasefire and upon the 12th hour, Israel will start the ceasefire and upon the 24th hour, an official end to the 12-day war will be saluted by the world.
During each ceasefire, the other side will remain peaceful and respectful on the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will.
I would like to congratulate both countries, Israel and Iran, on having the stamina, courage, and intelligence to end what should be called the 12-day war.
This is a war that could have gone on for years and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn't and never will.
God bless Israel.
God bless Iran, and God bless the Middle East.
God bless the United States of America, and God bless the world.
Somebody needs to tell him to stop putting Israel first in these messages.
It's just bad.
It's just bad.
But he's done it again.
Well, this is interesting to say the least.
So what does this mean?
So Israel has one final mission attacking Iran and Iran said go ahead?
Does that make any sense to anybody?
I don't get that.
And this was obviously going on while Trump was posting it.
So while Trump is posting about a ceasefire, Israel is bombing Iran.
And Trump had to know this.
So I don't get it.
This is just crazy.
This is just insane.
So try to figure that deal out.
Try to figure that deal out.
Guys, let me know if anybody else is reporting on that.
I'm going to get to this other stack of news dealing with NATO.
But see if anybody else is reporting on these strikes yet.
And we'll try to make sense of all of this for you if we can before the end of the show.
But it all seems quite nonsensical.
Anyway.
By the way, Wikileaks also publishing this.
400 killed and over 3,000 wounded in Gaza aid program.
Starving civilians gather in massive crowds waiting for permission to approach.
In many instances, Israeli troops have opened fire on the masses and even during distribution itself, killing dozens as they try to collect a few kilos of flour or canned goods to bring home in what Palestinians have dubbed the hunger games.
Yeah.
When you're trying to get sympathy from the world, killing civilians trying to get food aid is going to harm those efforts.
And yet, here we are.
Now, tomorrow in New York City, there will be a primary for the Democrat running for mayor, and it's almost assured a Democrat will win.
And you have Andrew Cuomo versus Mom Dani.
I forget the guy's first name, Mom Dani, but he's a Muslim.
And the polls are getting close.
Zoran Mom Danny.
Zoran Mom Danny.
Now, the polls are getting really close.
Cuomo has been ahead, but Mom Dani is closing in the polls.
Some polls, Mom Danny is now favored to win.
Now, if he wins, it will be part of the anti-Israel backlash 100%.
But also, you've got to understand, Cuomo is not very popular in New York either.
So that's kind of a weird move by the Democrats to go with Cuomo.
But the gap that Cuomo had is closing and fast.
And with every bomb Israel drops, I'd say Mom Donnie will gain two points in the polls.
But this will all happen tomorrow, and I think it'll be very telling of where the Democrat Party goes, certainly, but really a lot of America as well, depending on where it goes.
Now, Congressman Randy Fine, he's obviously upset about this.
He says, New Yorkers must not elect this proud Muslim terrorist as their next mayor.
Now, folks, you know what I say.
If logic can't be applied universally, it's not logic, it's propaganda.
And I want to talk about very briefly some propaganda that's been going on for a long time, but it's now more obvious than ever.
Whenever you see posts like this, and there's a dozen names, more that you could point to, but let's just use this from Congressman Randy Fine as an example.
Whenever you see posts using language like this, New Yorkers must not elect this proud Muslim terrorist as their next mayor.
Now, what do you think would happen?
By the way, he has no charges of being a terrorist.
Okay, you might not like his politics.
You might not like his religious beliefs.
But has Zoran Mamdani been charged with any terrorism charges?
Now, it seems to me like that would be blatant defamation.
And Fine should get sued for such libel.
But see, this is where the propaganda kicks in.
Imagine if he said, or anybody said, New Yorkers must not elect this proud Jew terrorist as their next mayor.
You'd be never allowed in American politics again.
You'd be scolded as an anti-Semite.
You'd probably lose your bank accounts.
But you can say Muslim and attach terrorists to it all day long, 24-7, and that's okay.
If it can't be applied universally, it's not logic.
It's propaganda.
So just remember that.
And this is no endorsement of Islam.
I'm not endorsing anything.
I'm just asking you to apply logic universally and see what happens.
That's all.
So just imagine, whenever you see a post like this, and they're everywhere, every Muslim is a terrorist, Islam is radical, just replace that with Jewish or Jew, and then see how that one tastes.
See how that one feels.
And then ask yourself, gee, I wonder why Islam and Muslims have a problem with us.
Golly gee.
Can't figure it out.
You know, it would be a huge upset if Zoran Mamdani wins.
But if Israel really just did bomb Iran again and that becomes a big story, right ahead of this election, he'll probably win.
And, you know, I'm starting to think that these radicals like Levin and Netanyahu want this.
I'm starting to get this belief that these radicals want Islamic terrorists in our country and they want an Islamic terror attack so they can say, see, I told you so, and then build another spy grid and then demonize Islam and then trick America again into fighting Israel's wars against the Arab world.
I think they want it.
And that's how sick I think these people have become.
And their behavior indicates it.
This is the stop anti-Semitism account, which is always, you know, anybody that says anything about Israel, they're going to attack you.
They see a guy wearing a headband.
And I guess this is a Hamas headband.
I don't know.
Apparently, this is a Hamas headband.
And they say this guy was spotted on the subway in New York wearing a headband.
So now they want the police to investigate, and they want to know his private information for wearing a headband.
Folks, there's something psychological going on here.
It's not good.
And I've been saying for months, I said it right after October 7th, this war is now going to be on our turf.
It's going to be in your backyard.
It's going to be in your front yard.
It's going to be in your kitchen.
And now here it is.
And it's only going to get worse.
And I wish America didn't have to deal with this centuries-old war from a far away part of the world between Jews and Arabs and Muslims.
He had two posts similar to this, but I just printed this one for today.
I got to say, I've been pleasantly surprised.
I haven't seen the Pope say or do anything I haven't liked.
He did meet with Shapiro, but that's fine.
Whatever.
You can meet with people.
But you know what translates from that message to me?
I've said this before.
Whether you're in Iran, whether you're in Israel, whether you're in America or many countries on earth, but for the sake of the current events, the current situation, whether you're an Iranian citizen, Israeli citizen, or American citizen, your government does not act in your interests.
Your government is not making you more safe or prosperous or peaceful.
No.
And that's the problem.
Our governments don't represent our interests.
Our governments don't consider our concerns.
They just don't.
They really don't.
And that's just true.
That's true for all parties involved in this.
Most people just want to live their lives in peace.
Even if you do, even if you do make us government slaves where you have to pay 40, 50% of your taxes to the government that doesn't even have your interest involved, it's like, just leave us alone.
Could you just leave?
That's how desperate we are now.
Just take our money.
Fine.
Just take, just steal from us every day.
Just leave us alone.
Could you?
Could you just leave us alone?
They just can't even do that.
So NATO is meeting.
NATO summit opens in The Hague against a backdrop of the Ukraine war, which nobody's talking about that anymore.
And the attack by the U.S. on the nuclear facilities in Iran.
Trump, NATO gather for summit amid rising global tensions.
Hundreds protest NATO and military spending before alliance meets in The Hague.
So yeah, Europeans don't even like it.
It's the same thing.
Nobody even likes NATO.
If you took a vote in Europe, if you took a vote for every country in NATO, and if you took a vote tomorrow and the question was, would you like to withdraw from NATO?
I guarantee you, every single country would vote to get out.
They represent their own interests, their donors' interests.
Whatever keeps the money coming in, whatever keeps the gravy train going.
I guarantee you, in an election or in a vote, let's say, if every country got to vote, every NATO country got to vote, would you like out of NATO?
Every single country would vote out of NATO.
Every single one.
Europeans are protesting NATO right now.
And they're the ones that benefit.
So just shut it down.
Nobody wants it anymore.
It's defunct.
It's a money laundering operation.
And it's our money that gets laundered.
Spain's MEP, Irene Montero, and in Europe, the MEPs are usually a lot more willing to speak their mind.
She said to the press, I have the footage of this, guys, but it's in Spanish, so I'll just read this quickly.
Israel and the United States, not Iran, have nuclear weapons, and only the U.S. has ever used one.
Being their ally puts us in danger.
NATO doesn't protect us.
It drags Europe into Trump's wars.
We don't want another Iraq.
Spain must leave NATO now.
Well, I disagree with the conclusions, or rather, I agree with the conclusions.
I disagree with how she got there.
But fine.
Yeah, blame America.
We're bad.
So shut down NATO.
Hey, whatever it takes.
Whatever it takes.
But you know what?
Even to that extent, I guess there's some truth to it.
But see, this is why people that want to live in denial and just act like, I'll just stick my nose in the air and say MAGA.
I'll just stick my nose in the air and say Trump isn't Bush.
Yeah, you realize that not everybody thinks like you.
You realize not everybody's in a cult like you.
You realize not everybody is grasping for life to a brand that has a expiration date to it?
Yeah, a lot of people are going to view these as Trump's wars, even if that is an inaccurate depiction.
That's how politics works.
And those people vote, and they're not going to vote with you anymore.
Do you get that?
So, hey, fine.
I disagree with the analysis, but yeah, shut down NATO.
All right.
I've got some other developments here on the alleged ceasefire deal, but we just had J.D. Vance on with Brett Baer, and we've got some of the clips from that.
So I'm going to play this before I get some of this other news and analysis involving the strikes that are confirmed happening in Tehran now.
So nothing is adding up.
And the claim of a ceasefire deal is being rejected by some Iranian press.
But let me just stop right there.
Here's J.D. Vance, guys.
Roll all three of these clips back to back to back.
Well, we were actually working on that just as I left the White House to come over here, so that's good news that the President was able to get that across the finish line.
I think what it means, Brett, is quite simple.
First of all, the President, without knock on wood, having a single American casualty, obliterated the Iranian nuclear program.
We are now in a place where we weren't a week ago.
A week ago, Iran was very close to having a nuclear weapon.
Now, Iran is incapable of building a nuclear weapon with the equipment they have because we destroyed it.
So that's a very, very big thing.
Now, what that means, I think, is we have to talk to Iran and, of course, to Israel about what the future holds.
Because while we have obliterated the Iranian nuclear program, our hope and our expectation is that they're not going to try to rebuild that program.
And I think that's what the president is really trying to figure out here, is to build a long-term settlement here to where we can have peace in the region, where our regional allies and, of course, the American people, most importantly, can be secured.
Destruction of the Iranian nuclear program that has already happened is not something they try to rebuild.
When I left the White House, I thought that we might be able to get it across the finish line before this broadcast, and it looks like the president has been able to do that.
I mean, look, he's been working the phones constantly.
Frankly, before the 12-day war started, but certainly over the past 12 days, the president's been extremely clear about America's national objective here.
It is to create a world where Iran cannot build a nuclear weapon.
We, of course, destroyed the nuclear program that they had, and the president told the entire team, we're going to work to make sure that they don't try to rebuild that nuclear capability in the future.
And look, this is a great thing.
For Israel, think about this.
They've accomplished an important military objective.
They've helped us destroy the Iranian nuclear program.
They've also destroyed the conventional missile capability of Iran that threatened the country of Israel.
For the Iranians, I think this is a new opportunity to actually pursue the path of peace.
As I said yesterday, what the Iranians have showed through their support of terror networks, through their now failed effort to build a nuclear weapon, is that they're just not very good at war.
And I think the president really hit the reset button and said, look, let's actually produce long-term peace for the region.
That's always been his goal.
I actually think when we look back, we will say the 12-day war was an important reset moment for the entire region.
They talked about the next six hours finalizing the attacks.
I mean, I think what he's talking about is right now, for the American people watching, it's dark over there.
That's typically when the Israelis and the Iranians have been shooting at each other.
I think there's some recognition that that might continue for another few hours.
And tomorrow really is a new day.
The end of the 12-day war, the end of the Iranian nuclear program.
And I really do believe the beginning of something very big for peace in the Middle East.
Trump and Vance, the administration here, but specifically Trump and Vance, I mean, folks, they're all in.
They are all in on this.
And certainly you realize that if they don't deliver, it's done.
It's done.
Trust in this administration will go way down.
Trust in Trump will go way down.
Anybody in the administration will be unrunnable as a Republican.
Obviously, you talk about midterms in 2028.
But I mean, they're basically betting all in that this is it.
That's what this signifies to me.
They are betting all in that this is it.
And if they win that bet, it'll be huge.
It will be huge.
No doubt about it.
It will be huge.
But if they lose that bet, oh boy, the political fallout will be disastrous.
So I look at it like, well, why would they go all in on this unless they weren't highly confident that they're going to get the result that they want?
So, okay, I guess that kind of makes me feel good that they're willing to go all in.
But it's just like you go all in and poker, even if you got a good hand.
It can all come to an end.
So, okay.
He knew Israel was going to bomb Tehran.
So he obviously knew that.
So now I'm thinking, well, how does this make sense?
The only way this makes sense to me.
And now this is why Israel is running all the propaganda in Iran for regime change.
This is why Lindsey Graham is apparently on the floor of the Senate urging for regime change.
They're going to do regime change.
That's what's happening.
This is all a regime change war.
So they lied to it from the beginning.
We were right.
But so it seems what's happening now, based off of this information, I would say the Iranians turned on the Ayatollah.
The Iranians turned on the Mulahs.
They gave Trump the green light to destroy the facilities, or at least the optics of destroying the facilities.
And they gave Israel the green light to just strike strategically probably Khamenei and the rest of the Mullahs.
I would say that's likely what happened.
And if that's the case, you'll probably hear about the rise of the Shah within 48 hours.
Now, you're going to have a hard time bringing back the 10 to 15% of MAGA that was turned off by all of this.
They're probably gone for good.
And that will definitely hurt you in the midterms.
You're not going to convince the far right that this was America first, because it wasn't.
It was Israel first.
But having said all of that, if you can get this done with no American casualties and come out unscathed and really be done with it, I mean, really be done with it.
And we don't have to hear about it again, then you can start the recovery process probably even this week.
You can start that recovery process and you can repair the damage that's been done.
And now, though, the pressure is even intensified on the America First agenda.
And we had the most powerful populist coalition ever to win elections for three, maybe even four cycles.
And this deal, this whole deal could have blown the whole thing up.
And now we're hanging on a thread.
But here's a good clip from CNN to kind of explain why maintaining this coalition is so important and how all the different factors and figures inside of it come into play.
And we notice here that they're still above a 50% approval rating.
So he shows Gabbard and Carlson and Musk and some other issues here, including the Iranian strikes.
But just to kind of put the final bookend on this deal.
And this is why I'd say no matter what, no matter what, just getting involved in the Middle East again and the strikes, I'd say guaranteed 10% MAGA coalition gone.
Guaranteed.
Guaranteed.
They're gone.
They're never coming back for another election cycle.
Maybe they can come back in 2028, but they'll sit the midterms out.
Guaranteed.
They're not voting in midterms.
And then you probably have an extra 5% that are like, they might show up and vote, but the whole Iran thing turned them off.
I'd say you got about another 20% on top of that, which is your Tulsi Gabbard supporters, your Tucker Carlson fans, your Elon Musk fans, your RFK Jr. fans that might be a little soured from all of this, but not totally turned off.
Maybe they're going to wait and see results.
But you'll definitely have Elon Musk fans that after that are done.
You'll probably have some Tucker Carlson fans that are wavering.
Depending on what happens with Tulsi Gabbard, that's probably wavering.
RFK Jr. supporters are probably mostly safe, but some of them want nothing to do with the Middle East, so you can throw them into kind of that 5%.
But the point is this.
We won a popular vote with Donald Trump.
We won The House, the Senate, and the White House.
That was this powerful, populist, nationalist, common sense coalition that was so strong it could have won two, three, maybe four elections in a row if we could have maintained it.
You're down 10% now.
Guaranteed, you're down 10%.
I mean, low-end five, high-end 15. I'm averaging out at 10%.
And then you got another 20% that you're going to have to win back over ahead of the midterms.
So now you're back to where you were politically in, and I'd say 2020 and 2024, where you're in a dogfight now.
You're in a dogfight now.
But depending on how the situation turns out with Iran, you might be able to bring some of these people back.
But you've just given the Democrats room for 2026.
That is just a fact.
Any historical analysis will show you that.
Any current political analysis will show you that.
And you have to understand, for Trump, he doesn't care.
He's not running for reelection.
And that's not a knock on Trump.
That's just the reality.
He doesn't need to win another election.
He can do whatever he wants, whatever he feels he needs to do or whatever.
He doesn't have to win again.
He's not running.
He's not on the ticket.
But there's no doubt, and they can get a big victory.
Hey, let's see if they get a peace deal done and this whole thing turns out to be great.
Great victory.
Congratulations.
They'll do a victory lap.
There'll be a bunch of handshaking and everything else.
But you've already, by doing this before the America First Agenda, by doing this before delivering on domestic policy, you've lost 10% in the midterms, maybe 15%.
And now you're going to have to, and I don't know if you can even recover that crown.
And I think what happens in this primary, I really do.
I think if Cuomo loses, because Cuomo, both Andrew and Chris have both trying to kind of lean back into the middle now.
And maybe that's where they always were, but they were just trying to play to the radical left when they were at CNN and running New York.
No, I think if Mom Donnie wins, I think that'll be a proper gauge of just how much was impacted in the last 12-day war, we'll say.
That's what they want you to call it, the 12-day war.
I think if Mom Donnie wins, that's your indicator that this 12-day war just pushed a major momentum into the radical left and into the Democrat Party.
I'd say that'll be your first indicator.
Because now you'll have people that are going to the polls just to protest Middle East involvement.
Just to protest Israel.
And it won't just be on the left.
It'll be on the right.
Absolutely.
So if he pulls that off tomorrow, that's your first indicator of, okay, we just suffered a huge blow.
Just raw political numbers from the 12-day war.
100%.
All right.
Remember, they used to deny that illegal immigrants, illegal aliens were getting health care.
That's funny because now they're just openly admitting it because now they're going to cancel it in Clip 26. Of Democrat-led states facing budget crises are moving to cut health care funding for illegal immigrants.
The progressive governors of California, Illinois, and Minnesota, they are moving to roll back or freeze programs that extended state-funded health care to people who entered the country illegally, citing an unexpectedly high enrollment.
And Washington, D.C. Mayor Mural Bowser, is looking to follow suit as well.
We have seen Americans change their opinions about undocumented immigrants getting health care, a lot of it having to do with the decline in the threat of COVID-19.
And we have seen federal funding for COVID relief that has ended, along with states' actual spending being much higher than their projected spending.
So it's leading many governors to roll back that health care coverage for undocumented immigrants.
And we're seeing this over in California.
Governor Gavin Newsom now wanting to freeze new enrollment in Medi-Cal for undocumented adults.
Patients can stay, but even they could see benefit cuts.
It's exactly what Republicans like California Assemblyman Carl DiMayo have been calling for.
We told you Saki left because she knew it would destroy her career to lie for Joe Biden for four years.
So she got the hell out of there.
And now Kareem Jean Pierre can't even get a TV hit.
Can't even get the hit.
She's bet.
You know, I'm sure she's got PR people.
They signed her book deals and everything.
Nobody's reading that book.
You hear anything about that book?
Yeah.
And apparently it's a tell-all.
So the tell-all.
Well, we already know.
Okay.
We've already been told.
Yeah.
Can't even get, her PR team is just fighting like hell to get her a hit on the view.
Can't even get on the view.
How is that even possible?
A black lesbian immigrant, the first black lesbian immigrant, press secretary, can't even get a hit on the view.
They're gonna, I mean, they gotta get her on eventually.
I mean, it's so bad now.
It's such an embarrassment now.
Somebody's gonna have to say, hey, we gotta give her something.
Somebody throw her a bone.
But you know what?
Because they're gonna realize what everybody else will realize.
If Kareem Jean, if nobody gives her a bone to chew on here, she's gonna go anti-Biden.
She's gonna tell you that Biden couldn't even walk, couldn't even talk, had an IV, had a, you know, whatever.
Or maybe they do want that.
I don't know.
Maybe they do want that.
Maybe that'll take the heat off of whoever was actually running things or whoever was operating the auto pen.
But boy, oh boy, did we see that coming.
All right.
Let's hit a couple other headlines as we close out the show here.
Suicide bombing at Damascus church kills 25. And, you know, whenever you have these wars in the Middle East with Israel and the Arab world, you know, Christians always end up getting slaughtered.
Continues to happen in Syria now.
Nobody talks about the Christian death, though.
You know, caught up in the middle of this madness.
No, you don't hear about that.
At least 25 people have been killed and 63 others wounded in a suicide bomb attack at a church in Damascus, Syria.
A man opened fire with a weapon at a Greek Orthodox church during a Sunday evening service before detonating an explosive vest.
Security card kills active shooter at Michigan Church.
Police say.
Police say gunman killed by church staff after he opened fire in Wayne at a church Sunday morning at Cross Point Community Church.
Wayne Church gunman identified as Brian Browning, 31 years old of Romulus.
Well, what have we been saying?
If you're going to church, arm yourselves and have security and double it and triple it and quadruple it and refocus.
Refocus every five seconds.
Because churches are about to be major targets, folks.
I hope this isn't a trend.
I mean, God, I pray.
But I'm telling you right now, we've been saying it for months, and now there's been multiple attacks on churches.
I'm telling you right now.
Multiple attacks on Jewish institutions, too.
It doesn't even have to be a church.
Any place where Jews meet up, like the Jewish Museum, whatever, anything associated with that, that's going to be a target.
And I have a feeling, because it always does, folks, it always does, this Middle East war is going to spill into the United States, and it's only going to get worse.
And I think there's parties that want it here, by the way.
