Rudy Giuliani critiques unreliable Pakistani intelligence and warns that a Gulf of Hormuz disruption would devastate Asia, arguing China's economy is secretly struggling despite ceasefire exclusions for Hezbollah and Hamas. He accuses Democrats and Australian PM Albanese of hypocrisy over Iranian attacks on desalination plants while defending President Trump against Melania Epstein allegations and condemning NATO allies like France and Italy as cowards. Ultimately, Giuliani asserts that only total regime overthrow in Iran ensures lasting peace, urging viewers to follow his X account for further details on Russia and the Shah.

Lebanon War Crimes Accusations00:14:47
Good evening.
This is Rudy Giuliani, and this is the Rudy Giuliani Show.
And of course, like most of the concerned citizens in the world, our eyes are on the White House and on Iran, on Tehran.
Although you can't see anything in Tehran, it's hidden, whatever is going on.
Most of what we know about Tehran and most Of what we know about their positions comes from Pakistan.
That's a very, very questionable source.
Let's remember that Pakistan is an Islamic country.
It's a country that gave a refuge to bin Laden.
It's a country that is a bitter enemy of one of our singularly most important allies, particularly as we line up against the real fight that we can't take our eyes off of, which is against China.
And let's just be very, very clear about it.
Pakistan is not trustworthy.
Never has been, never will be, and it will never be on our side.
The president may say nice things about them because he tends to say that he's friends with all these people, but the guy may be a friend with the president, but he's not a friend of the United States.
So, Pakistan wants peace here because they are affected by the Gulf of Hormuz like this.
See this?
Like that.
We're affected like this.
And if we had to make a permanent rearrangement and replace the 20% from the Gulf of Hormuz, I'd take about a year and a half to two years.
There'd be some difficulties, not for us, for other countries, most of whom don't seem to like us very much.
And so the reason I think for the president's frustration, which I think he's contained really well, is they won't help with the Gulf of Hormuz.
But except for the fact that the Gulf of Hormuz becomes important because we really want to get this regime out, the economic impact is on everyone else, not on us, not on the Americas, Canada, Mexico, our new very strong allies in South America.
Next, least important is Europe.
The big impact are in, think of the countries that you go to if you come out of the Persian Gulf and instead of making a right, you make a left.
That means you go to Asia, right?
So those are the countries that get that 20% of the world's oil.
More goes to China than anyone else.
China is being hurt already, would be hurt.
Badly if it were cut off completely.
Not catastrophically, but badly.
And again, one doesn't know the real nature of China's economy except that it's in trouble.
The rest of it, we have to assume that they're lying about, and we have to read, excuse the pun, if it is a pun, tea leaves to figure it out.
Ted didn't even laugh.
So I'm going to have to tell Ted the reason is the Chinese like tea.
No.
Read the tea leaves.
But it's really the Japanese that have the tea, right?
The high tea, like the English.
Yes.
And they have that ceremony.
I've been at that.
Yes.
The Chinese.
I think the rest of the Japanese who do that.
I did that in Japan.
But they are big tea drinkers.
I spent a lot more time in Japan.
I was in China only twice.
One time virtually thrown out.
Great story.
That's a great story.
And the second time I was almost involved in a big fight.
Trying to help some girl that was thrown in a chute.
See, I'm always getting in trouble trying to help people.
But I'll tell you that story some other time.
It's a great story.
We'll get Bo Wagner on.
And we'll have Bo tell the story of he and I at two in the morning standing in front of a hotel in Shanghai trying to do an imitation of the Godfather scene when Michael and the Baker try to pretend they have guns because these guys were chasing us and we had interfered in their.
Doing what they do in that part of the world all the time, abusing women.
But let's get back to where we are right now.
I will say, in all fairness, a very confused situation, of course.
Okay.
So let's, I think the only way we can adequately describe this and put it in proper context, which I hope I help you do, that's what I sort of aim at.
You know, I aim at trying to get you the things that people don't tell you.
I listened all day today, on and off, and I heard no mention of the continuous and repetitious war crimes being committed by Iran.
We'll get into that in a short while.
So the ceasefire started theoretically, what, about 36 hours ago?
I think that's about right.
And I think in this order, I can't be sure if they all fit in and exactly where they fit in.
But Iran did let two tankers go through right away within seven or eight hours of the agreement that was made, that was announced by the president and with Iran through Pakistan.
It sounds like the communications were with the Pakistani prime minister and with the Pakistani foreign minister, I would say.
So Two went through.
Meanwhile, that agreement, which does not include Lebanon, at least not in anything that was said to us before, right?
Doesn't include protection for so called Iranian proxies, which would therefore be Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis, whatever.
I really doubt that we would have agreed to it if it did, because then, you know, they could take independent action before we did anything.
They're highly unreliable.
And then Iran denies that they have anything to do with them.
No reason that Israel would possibly believe that it included Lebanon.
They were involved in a continuous activity of really trying to eliminate Hezbollah in Lebanon, which has been a source of.
Terrorist attack on northern Israel for 20 years, even though the UN promised to stop it and had a useless peacekeeping force there.
I think, I think, tell me what we're looking at there.
That's a post, that's a missile that struck a Hezbollah location in Lebanon.
These are all.
That looks to me like southern Beirut.
I'm just, they hit in three places the Bekaa Valley in southern Lebanon, which is broad.
That's where most of the Hezbollah activity is, obviously, to be close to Israel.
These photos are from southern Lebanon.
That is correct.
Okay.
Well, that one was, but the first one was an urban location.
That looked to me more like Tehran.
There isn't very much urban in southern Lebanon.
And then we have some strikes.
So that's a city.
That's got to be, that has to be.
That has to be in Beirut.
Oh, there's one that just happened.
Yep.
These are videos of destruction happening in Beirut.
So, I mean, you've got to understand, and the Iranians have to understand.
The Israelis are tough and tougher than they are.
They're tough as a result of their insanity, not due to a very, very strong base like legitimate protection of your nation, of a legitimate nation put together in order to have a refuge for a group of people that have been the most persecuted in the history of our world.
There have been terrible persecutions, and there are many, many people entitled to our sympathy and consideration with regard to persecution of this type.
But there's none that have existed for persecution has existed for as long, as extensive, as deeply rooted into the population, that have had more than any other group attempts at elimination.
Hitler's final solution was not the first attempt at a final solution.
They're all throughout the Old Testament.
And the Old Testament is actually a holy book.
It's not really, I mean, it isn't like the Koran.
Please do not confuse the Koran for a holy book because you'll be misled, as are many, many Muslims.
So, Israel was.
I think yesterday and the day before, yesterday and the day before were the two biggest attacks that Israel launched during the war.
Today's attack came very close to yesterday's.
In other words, Bibi was not at all impressed with their complaint that this was within the ceasefire.
Since nobody called him and told him or asked him, he kind of figured we're not.
Also, the other thing that he would kind of have told him that is as they were hitting Lebanon, Iran was hitting Kuwait, not involved in the war.
Saudi Arabia, not involved in the war.
Bahrain, not involved in the war.
Six places.
And going at facilities that were more clearly civilian related than all of the ones that the.
Supporters that Iran has among the Democrats in Congress and in office, which is unanimous, isn't it?
It's unanimous support, as far as I can tell.
I mean, when they get on there and they accuse America of war crimes, and they have ignored maybe 2,000 war crimes of a much more serious nature by Iran, and they accuse their own nation of war crimes, and the country that's at war with them has committed clearer.
Examples of war crimes and in multiples that are way out of comparison.
Even if you're going to say, well, the fact that they've committed a thousand war crimes doesn't justify your committing even one.
If you are actually interested in war crimes, why aren't you pursuing Iran?
And they're complaining that Israel is breaking the ceasefire by attacking Lebanon.
Well, if Lebanon is included, the Arab states would be included.
So, how do they complain and get the world's sympathy, including the absolutely useless communist traitor that has run Australia into the ground and made Australia an embarrassment, Albanese the shit?
How does he complain and say Lebanon should be included in the ceasefire?
Well, then, why isn't Kuwait in the ceasefire and Bahrain?
And what about Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, who's been attacked more than Israel and hasn't attacked Iran?
And how about the fact that we haven't hit, America and Israel haven't hit any water supplies?
They've gone directly at the desalinization plants.
Do you know that that is a clear violation of the Geneva Convention that you phony bastards haven't even bothered to read?
All of you Democrats, Albanese, all of you world communists, how come you're all on the same side, Democrats, with the world communists?
How does it end up that you, the Democrat Party, end up on the same side as the communists in Europe and Asia?
Constantly.
And you're on the same side with the terrorists.
And you lie for the terrorists and you lie against America.
What the heck is wrong with you?
Democrat Party Terrorist Allegations00:05:18
I mean, you are an abomination.
So, Israel had a good day in terms of a war.
I don't know what they did yesterday.
Yesterday was apparently even bigger and better in terms of a war, right?
So, today they killed hundreds.
We don't know how many hundreds.
They wounded well over 1,000.
Actually, some of the estimates are that it was even greater than yesterday and the biggest of the war.
I mean, they don't know how long they're going to get to eliminate Hezbollah, which, as long as one remains alive, they'll try to kill a Jew.
So they're doing what I would do.
They're taking advantage of every second, every minute to kill them.
Now, I have always prayed in my life that I would never have to kill anybody.
Killing is.
Against the law, and it's against the moral law and against the law of my religion and of my civilized nature.
But so is self defense and protection of the weak and protection of my fellow countrymen.
And you could not have a better example of a just war or military action or whatever you want than this.
The regime of terror has asked for this so often that, I mean, this just war could have occurred in 1981 when they took hostages.
It could have occurred when they attacked our Marines and killed them.
That was an act of war.
They attacked our military.
It could have occurred when Soleimani was killing thousands of our young men and women in Iraq in a war he had no place in.
There were plenty of times we had more than enough justification to attack them and ultimately even eliminate them as a government because their government is dedicated, their government is illegal in the sense that their government is specifically dedicated to the annihilation of other people because their government is based on their theology.
And their religion is dedicated to the annihilation of you and me.
Sorry, it is.
That's just a fact.
Not only is it a fact, it's a historical fact.
It's been one of the major themes of history for the last 1500 years.
They believe that their major approach to the infidels, meaning the Christians and the Jews and everybody else that doesn't agree with them, is to kill as many of them as necessary to get the others.
To submit.
By the way, the word means submit.
The religion, you know, the way we're called Christians and Jews are called Jews?
They could be called submitters because that's what the word means.
Why do they put their heads down on the ground?
Because Allah is their dictator.
And don't get Allah confused with the monotheistic God who created the world in seven days.
Or don't get him confused with God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, the one who, you know, became man and delivered us from our sins and preached only love and peace.
Turn the other cheek and forgive your enemies.
Muhammad was just the opposite of that.
I would say the major theme was kill your enemies.
And not only that, his life became an example of that.
Mass murderer, pedophile.
And you can see it reflected in the actions of, of course, not all Muslims, not even close to all Muslims, but unfortunately, such a significant number that it has a major impact on the world.
Hezbollah responded with attacks in northern Israel, in the border towns, in the north of Israel, like Kiryat Shmona.
Whether they were casualties or not, I don't know.
Hezbollah tends to be somewhat more accurate than Hamas was, not as accurate as Iran is, which is not terribly accurate either.
Hezbollah Attacks on Israel00:05:11
So you can have.
Sometimes several days of attacks, and thank God, no casualties.
Then every once in a while, you will get casualties.
Now, I don't know what kind of bombs they were using.
Iran is now probably not hitting Israel.
Even before the ceasefire, they weren't hitting Israel because they probably have no chance of getting the little shit missiles they have left past whatever, you know, even the most simplified of Israeli defenses.
Today, they would say they observed the ceasefire.
They hit only defenseless Bahrain for no reason other than to try to put pressure on us to stop the war.
And they hit, I think, Kuwait was the other place that they hit.
For a good part of the day, they didn't.
They were trying to create a contrast with Israel.
They did no firing for a while.
What they did do was their response was to, although they again led a couple of ships through the Gulf of Hormuz, they then cut it off.
And you can see the price of oil went way up.
So that's their weapon.
They are convinced that they can intimidate President Trump into agreeing to their demands, which will allow them to.
Live, really, I guess, literally and figuratively, this is true live to fight another day, live to rebuild and go back on their inexorable path toward having a nuclear weapon.
Cheat, lie, steal, kill.
Hope they get a little time off so that they can regroup, even the two weeks.
As you know, the president.
The president has done great things for America, and therefore I'm loath to criticize him, and particularly when I don't know all the facts.
So I will defer to his judgment.
However, this maybe is not a particularly useful statement, but all my instincts tell me we shouldn't have done this two weeks.
They're on the ropes, take them out.
I do not understand why we think we can trust them.
I don't care if they have a new group of Of Muslim murderers.
Right.
They wouldn't be part of that group if it hadn't murdered people.
It's like the mafia.
Oh, this is the president's latest True Social Post, Mayor.
He is expressing his unhappiness with Iran.
He says, quote, Iran is doing a very poor job, dishonorable, some would say, of allowing oil to go through the Strait of Hormuz.
That is not the agreement we have.
Well, I mean, the reality is that they have to realize that they have an agreement with Donald Trump.
If they believe that Israel is violating that agreement, which they don't, because otherwise they're violating the agreement by hitting five other countries.
But even if they believe that, they have to.
Honor the part of the agreement they have with him.
He's not in any way breaching the agreement.
If he did, we wouldn't hear from them.
He would take out this group.
And we move on.
Eventually, we're dealing with 10 year olds.
If they allow any 10 year olds to live, now what about that?
Where's the outcry about a war crime when we saw the pictures yesterday of all the women and children being put up front so they can get killed?
And not the cowardly mulish mullahs who stuff their stupid robes with money.
So this is disturbing to say the least.
It's a ceasefire that I'm not sure we can call it a ceasefire.
I don't know what it's ceased.
We'll take a short break and we'll come back and we'll see what's going on in the rest of the world.

We have Rocky.
We're back.
Well, let's see.
So, the president, I did mention that oil prices went up.
And we will later go through a little bit of information on NATO.
But I want to show you how I organized the show.
I mean, look at this.
See?
I have it right here like this.
I put it on here.
So, first was the war.
Second was Trump on NATO, but I'm going to put that off until later.
Number three was Australia.
Number four was oil prices.
Now, number five is Melania Trump on Epstein.
And can I ask you a question?
I'll take a look if you send it in to us by email.
See this that I have here like this?
Suppose I made that shorter, like short little headlines, and it was on the side here somewhere.
Let's put it on a graphic on the screen.
Like over here.
A lot of shows are doing that now.
Now, not all the time, but enough so that, for example, you knew that when we came back, we were going to cover for the rest of the show Melania Trump on Epstein.
Olympic gender rules, and the UK accuses Russia of sabotage.
So, suppose you knew that.
You think that would be helpful in following the show better?
And I guess knowing when to take a break if you want to take a break.
Or do we have some footage from the press today on any of these issues?
Or.
Or a great secretary of war.
Do you notice?
Do you make anything of the fact that they're not sending Rubio?
I did.
I noticed that, Mayor.
I did notice that.
What to make of that?
Now, we do know, and I think this has been confirmed by enough people, so I'm willing to not just go with it, but take the qualification off that they didn't want Jared and Steve.
Oh, so that's why they said.
No, no, no.
Last week.
Oh, yeah.
You know, when they brought JD in?
Yep.
We did sort of accommodate them to some extent, not completely.
We didn't take out Jared and Steve, but they said they wanted JD Vance.
I don't think it's Iran.
I'm not even sure they know who he is.
I mean, obviously they do, but Pakistan wanted Vance.
We're told, right?
Yeah.
But I wonder if in the past they have gotten rid of Marco.
Because when you look from the outside, this is pure speculation.
When you look from the outside and you're them, right?
And you think, who would be the most open to our pleas for no war?
Or you would say, Marco would be the least, because he's the closest thing to a feared old neocon, right?
Like me.
And basically, I don't know if Marco thinks exactly like I do.
I think they should have been taken out.
46 years ago.
I think Carter should have taken them out.
When they had the hostages, we should have, well, no.
I have to amend this a little because I'm superimposing today's army on the army then.
Not that the army wasn't always great, but we were not by any means expert at extracting people.
We didn't do that a lot during, we won the Second World War and we were brilliant.
But we didn't do that a lot in the Second World War.
That wasn't one of the things that we did.
It's really the Israelis who did the first extrication of hostages that was breathtaking, and that was at Antibi.
And it was done by Bibi Netanyahu's older brother, who died, was the only person to die.
All the Israelis came back, all the hostages came back, all the soldiers came back, the head of the mission, because he was the last one.
To leave.
Lost his life doing that.
And do you know that Bibi did extractions of a smaller nature than that?
But he did three or four successful ones.
The Israelis were the first in modern times to really make it a science.
To our credit, we learned it from them because we teach them a lot and we give them a lot.
But in some ways, they will develop talents and things that they do.
Necessitated by so much as on the line for them.
In our case, we're often fighting for somebody else, aren't we?
Sort of, you have to make an extension to see the necessity for our being there.
Some people make it, some people who don't, like with Vietnam, et cetera.
So I think they would see JD as the most isolationist of the four, because he's been the most vocal about it.
I don't know how right that is.
I'm just telling you what they say.
When I heard him yesterday, it was clear that he has quite a balanced position here.
He basically said if they continue to do this, we're going to go back to war.
I mean, there's only a certain amount of patience, even.
Let's say that JD is a little bit, if you look at it, this is purely speculative and hypothetical.
Let's say Rubio is the least isolationist and the most inclined to intervene if necessary.
Let's say the president is kind of in the middle.
The president can go both ways depending on what he thinks is the right decision.
And that JD tends to be more like, let's stay out of it unless we really have to be involved.
So the guy you would want.
Hopefully, to put your proposals in the best possible light as JD Vance.
But you really don't tell a country not to send somebody.
So I think the president made the right decision.
Also, I find the attacks on him that he's unbalanced and that he's going to kill people.
I think most American presidents in times of our great wars did not sacrifice American lives needlessly, certainly not knowingly.
But he bends over backwards not to.
I mean, he could have done what he threatened a couple of days ago, two months ago to Iran, and nobody could have stopped him, and no sensible person could have objected to it, given all that they've done to us.
and all that they threatened to do.
But he really doesn't want to see them die.
The way we carry out our missions is so different than theirs.
I mean, they've been hitting civilians from the beginning of this thing, clear, absolute violations of the Geneva Convention.
And I told you they violate one of the things that's highlighted in the Geneva Conventions they hit water supplies.
And water supplies there are, look, if they hit our water supply, it'd be pretty bad, right?
But their water supply is the only thing that allows them to exist on that desert.
It's the reason there are great cities there now, and there never was.
I'm not talking about Egypt, right?
Egypt, because of the Nile and the fact that it's right near the Mediterranean as you go north, has a different climate.
But in the middle of the Saudi Arabian desert, I've been there.
Whoa!
I remember going to Dubai.
I can't remember.
I get Dubai and Qatar mixed up.
So, probably if I'm mixed up, I was in Qatar.
I went to Qatar more often.
But I can remember, I tried to avoid going in the summer, but when we were doing the Asian Games, I had to go.
And you do spend all your time in air conditioning.
That's because of the desalinization plant.
That desalinization plant goes off, and your room that night is 130 degrees.
130 degrees.
I mean, I've been walking around, I was walking around there at 120, 130 degrees.
I mean, that's hot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know, actually, actually, it gets so hot that there's a certain point.
I don't know what it is, and I don't want to test it.
There's a certain point of being hot where it doesn't matter how much hotter it gets.
Yeah.
It's just like 110 and 130.
I'm sure it's different, but who the hell knows the difference?
Right.
So they basically are taking away their oxygen when they do that.
And if you want to throw around war crime, boy, you got one there.
Never mentioned.
Never mentioned.
Or now they're making this big stink about Israel and they're hitting all these other countries.
When do they mention Hezbollah?
They're attacking Loban and Hezbollah.
Israel has every right to hit Hezbollah.
They kill Jews.
And tell them to stop.
If civilians are dying, tell Hezbollah to stop launching missiles from civilian infrastructure.
I mean, we saw what Iran.
Who was the most prominent sponsor of Hezbollah over the years?
We saw what they did just the other day, thinking those bridges were going to get hit.
They had civilians, kids, line up on those bridges.
Trump Lago Mar Property Deal00:15:19
So, Melania Trump did a live or video presentation.
That's a good question.
I mean, we saw it on video, but I don't know if it was originally.
Right, that's a good question.
Let me find out.
So, this was about Epstein and about the fact that.
I guess it's been alleged by people that she was very close to Epstein, that she was close to his procurer, that she was a friend of his, and all of which is I know the Epstein case.
I don't know all of the things they have now, but I do know the Epstein case from the point of view of having investigated it so I could defend the president back when it first came up.
And I'm going to tell you, like I told people about Russian collusion.
There ain't nothing there, babes.
He didn't do anything wrong.
In fact, in some respects, in certain areas, he was a hero.
And gosh almighty, I mean, it's reflected, it was even reflected by the New York Times reporter who covered it, it was reflected in the deposition of the woman who was the biggest victim.
And you can tell in the deposition, they're trying to put words in her mouth.
They ask her, When you were a mistress for, when you were either having an affair with or a mistress with Donald Trump, and she said, Well, I never was.
I mean, I know that was not the nature of the relationship.
Now they're depending on her for telling the truth about all the people there.
Well, they got to, what are they going to do?
Well, she's lying about Trump.
Right.
Plus, Maxwell says that.
Well, we can't trust Maxwell.
Maxwell says he had nothing to do with it.
Yeah.
Four or five other independent witnesses say the same thing.
I know he threw him out.
And what I can tell you is there was a point in time where he wouldn't have gone.
It would have been hard for him to be in the room for too long without him throwing him out a window or something.
I mean, he really disliked him.
And it wasn't just for that.
He thought he was extremely crooked and dishonest.
And his view of him was that he was harassing the massage ladies.
And even, you know, I guess a lot of creeps go for massages and they don't really want a massage.
So I'm sure those poor ladies, I mean, they make a lot of money, they're professionals, but I'm sure they have to handle some of that.
But they said he was impossible.
It wasn't like some guy who makes a request and they say no.
It was like pressure, So the lady was very uncomfortable and didn't want to have to service him anymore.
And she told the woman that was the supervisor, she said, Come on, let's go tell it to Mr. Trump.
Oh, I don't want to do that.
Aren't they friends?
And she said something about whether they were friends or not.
I don't remember exactly now.
Either they weren't or it wouldn't matter in this case.
You'll see how he stands up for his staff.
He immediately got rid of him.
She went up there.
She told him the story.
He got his security on the phone.
He tried to get Epstein on the phone, he wasn't able to get him.
He got his security on the phone and unceremoniously packed up all his shit, put it at the security gate at Mar-a-Lago.
Not at Mar-a-Lago, at the golf course.
Even the stuff from Mar-a-Lago, he put it at the security gate.
At Mar a Lago, and he's and he either left a message or sent somebody over there to tell him, You're out, your lock has been cleaned out, don't ever show up here, and everybody has your picture.
And then there was the dispute about his getting his money back.
I really don't know what happened if he got his money, I tend to doubt it because then after that, and maybe Epstein did this, they got involved bidding for the same property.
And this I'm not sure of.
This is not part of what I investigated.
Here comes an assumption.
The assumption is that Epstein did that to get back at him, to bid the price up.
And Trump, who usually doesn't let you do that to him, let him do it and outbid him and took the property.
But probably ended up saying to himself, I paid more for this because this son of a bitch came in and just hurt me, bid the price up.
So he had nothing good to say about him.
So.
Let's see what Melania has to say today.
Let's play a short clip from Melania.
I was never involved in any capacity.
I was not a participant, was never on Epstein's plane, and never visited his private island.
I mean, it's funny because maybe I didn't follow it, but I didn't know that anybody accused her of.
I mean, you see some social, you see some pictures of them.
I think it was more when they were dating than when they were married at social occasions together.
But has there been allegations that she had something to do with Epstein?
And I'm certain, when I say certain, there were, I don't know how many, 800 people at his wedding.
I was at his wedding.
I don't think I could have identified Epstein at his wedding.
But I think I checked back then.
I don't think Epstein, I think he had gotten rid of him before the wedding.
I don't think he was at the wedding.
And if he was, we would be seeing pictures of that, right?
Everybody in the world was at the wedding.
I mean, I'm very glad I was invited, but it was not as if it was like it was a big, big wedding.
Hillary and Bill Clinton were there.
Mike Tyson was there.
I mean, you think of the people that are associated with him for a long time.
They were all there, and then plenty of Barbara Walters.
Oh, go on, Ron.
Right?
Right.
I remember Bill and Hillary.
Jeez.
Yeah.
I mean, what was it?
2006?
The wedding?
2005.
That sounds about right.
That's when he built the.
It's when he built the ballroom at Mar a Lago, which I was at.
We were at the other day.
Were you?
Oh, no.
I was married in 2005.
Yeah.
Pretty good memory, huh?
Yeah.
I mean, I'm not getting like Biden.
I'm staying more like Trump, right?
Yeah.
I'm trying to find pictures from Mar a Lago.
So I'll tell you, he got rid of him kind of early if he was gone, if Epstein were gone.
Epstein, I was not at the wedding.
There is a picture of myself and Melania and him.
And me and four of us outside, I think it's outside the church.
Uh, yeah, Bethesda by the sea, yeah, then it has a saint's name too.
It's a it's a John's, no, well, it should have a saint's name.
It's an Episcopal church, but the Episcopals in very rich dioceses love to do that.
You know, they love to give it one of these fancy schmancy, yeah.
I was when I first heard that, Bethesda by the sea sounds like a resort, yeah.
I thought that that's funny you point that out.
It's a house of God, not a resort.
Clearly, we're Catholic now, it is a beautiful church, it is, and I've been there for several, um.
Beautiful choir, great choir.
However, half of them, and then right next to it is the Breakers, the great big giant resort called the Breakers.
And then right on the other side is the Catholic Church and the synagogue, the two synagogues.
Because when you went on that northern part of the island, that used to be the Jewish Catholic side of the island.
You weren't allowed to live on the place with the Episcopal Anglican Church.
That was just for wasps.
And the Jews weren't allowed to join the country club or the club that's right next to Mar-a-Lago that Trump loves to needle.
He got into a dispute with the big flag.
He put a big flag up, and they got upset because it put a shadow on their fancy schmancy club.
Trump won that one too.
Ted?
Mayor?
Do we have some comments today from?
Ruddy?
I never pronounce his name correctly.
So we're going back.
Topic two.
I'm going to ask AI how to pronounce it.
I believe it's.
You're right now that you say it.
It might not be Rutki.
Rutki is what I've always.
So let's play some comments.
How is it spelled?
R U T T E?
Yep.
Would sound like Ruti.
Right.
I mean, if you pronounce it phonetically, it would be Luti.
Let's get 10 people that have, we'll find 10 interviews, see how they all pronounce his name, and then we'll determine.
This is the second time I'm doing this, and it worked out really well.
It was one of the, I think it was for the unknown Ayatollah.
Oh, I have a question for you when we come back about the unknown Ayatollah.
If you have the.
Let's play.
This is about what happened with what's going on with NATO.
I understand he really blew his stack over this.
Is the world safer today than it was before the war was started?
Absolutely.
Because, and this is thanks to President Trump's leadership, degrading these capabilities is really, really very important for your and my safety here in the US, in Europe, in the Middle East.
And now that, so that was, you know, obviously Jay Tapper wanted him to attack Trump there.
Did you see Jay Kappa go?
And then a more lighthearted moment.
Let's play 2.3.
And then Daddy has to sometimes do strong language.
Strong language.
Do you still consider him daddy after yesterday?
Well, on the daddy thing, this is a language problem.
What happened is the following.
I have to explain to you, because it follows me a little bit.
I can assure you.
Now, we had a sort of pre summit meeting, the president and I, in June in The Hague, and he had been very angry that day with Iran and with Israel.
This was in June last year.
And in Dutch, you would say, hey, the translation of your father is daddy, and I would say, I said, hey, yeah, sometimes daddy has.
To be angry.
So I was not calling him my daddy, but saying.
But of course, daddy has also a special connotation, and I now have to live as this the rest of my life.
And I own it, and the president owns it, because he brought out t shirts, he made a movie, daddy is home, and he returned to the United States.
This was so funny.
This is why I love him, is what he ended up saying the rest of that clip.
Well, the reality is, it is reported, and I have no reason at all to doubt this, that he was over the top angry.
Not necessarily at him.
But at those, he sees no possible justification for why these countries refuse to help us.
I would say, with the exception of Japan, where it's against the law because of the law that we imposed on them.
And also, in the case of Japan, Takashira came to the United States to explain it to him.
None of the others bothered to do that, not even the prime minister of Italy.
Is Spain part of NATO?
No.
They don't pay.
I mean, they're freeloaders.
But they're communists.
I mean, why should they pay?
They don't want people to work either.
They're the worst.
Spain is the worst.
But the greatest disappointment is Great Britain because they were in that category of very, very special ally.
And it's disgraceful what they did.
And France was equally disgraceful, but expected.
Who the hell ever expected the French to be honorable?
The government has never been honorable, nor has it ever had the guts to stand up for itself in a long, long time.
But I mean, the UK was a very, very strong and effective ally when they weren't run by a bunch of communists and socialists and cowards and sissies and who the hell knows what else they are.
And the disappointment with Italy is profound in my case.
I don't know how Italy thinks it has any right to say no to us after all we've done for them.
And we saved them from Mussolini.
And we saved England from having to speak German.
You don't think that Hitler would have crossed the channel and taken them if we didn't come into the war?
By the way, you think if we stayed out of the war, they'd have beaten Russia?
I don't.
I don't.
And Putin should come and kiss our ass.
No, no, no, no.
Sorry.
Kiss our feet.
Well, we're going to go over to X now.
And we have plenty to cover on my board here.
And I would like you to please tell me if you think this would be helpful to you.
It's very helpful to me.
Like, I know we're going to go into detail on that story about Russia.
We're going to talk about how two very, very diametrically opposed Iranians, the Shah, former Shah, and Madam Morajevi both agree that there's going to have to be, well, this ceasefire could be a disaster because there needs to be more pressure in order to overthrow the regime.
Ceasefire Disaster Predictions00:01:13
And if the regime isn't overthrown, It would have been better not to have had this war because they're going to become more powerful.
I'll explain that to you because a lot of people think, well, this has been taken away and that's been taken away.
You know what will be put back if we don't finish them?
That thing that happens when a person goes through the worst thing in their life and gets through it, they become stronger if they're determined.
And these people are determined, determined, determined.
And we'll take a look at some of the coverage of this.
And other things because as Trump gets more and more successful, they get more and more unfair.
And it's very bad for our country because we have to have an adequate appraisal of what's going on in our country and what the condition of it is.
So we'll talk about all of that and then sort of see if I can.
I think it's pretty clear now what's going to happen, clearer than it has been as a result of several things that have been leaked or.
