Special Reports & Tweets - For the 28th time in 45 days Trump has declared victory in the Iran war only to have Benjamin Netanyahu publicly humiliate him. Iranian gunboats fired on a tanker in Strait of Hormuz as Tehran escalated by closing the Strait after Israel broke the cease-fire. Trump ignored, https://t.co/lJDCSgnW1i Aired: 2026-04-18 Duration: 05:07 === Trump Betrays MAGA (05:06) === [00:00:00] It's Saturday, April 18th, 2026. [00:00:04] All hell is breaking loose. [00:00:07] Iran is now attacking major oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. [00:00:11] Israel broke the ceasefire yesterday and is bombing thousands of civilian homes in Lebanon and shelling them, despite Trump saying he'd ordered Israel to stop. [00:00:19] I'm about to break it all down right now. [00:00:22] But it's very important to understand that the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, the intelligence agencies told Trump before March 1st, Israel was lying to him. [00:00:31] About Iran about to strike us and that they would fall in four days and that regime change was certain. [00:00:35] That's all come out. [00:00:36] That's all been documented. [00:00:38] And then those of us that are loyal to reality and loyal to what Trump runs on, we're all called traitors. [00:00:42] We're all told we're not MAGA. [00:00:44] No, it's Trump that's not MAGA anymore. [00:00:46] And I said if he keeps saying we'll destroy an entire civilization in one day, wipe out an entire people, that's the definition of genocide, he'd have to be 25th Amendmented. [00:00:53] All the Israeli first spokesperson were saying we need to use nuclear weapons. [00:00:56] Trump would say, tune in to Levin. [00:00:58] He knows what I'm about to do. [00:00:59] Levin's saying use nuclear weapons like we did on Japan. [00:01:02] That was insane. [00:01:03] And I said, if he continued, he'd be 25th Amendment. [00:01:07] And then he's now said 28 times, you can look it up, that the war's been won and that Iran's given up. [00:01:12] He said yesterday Iran was giving up their uranium, their weapons, everything that we totally won, but Israel had to not attack them anymore. [00:01:18] And then Israel attacked. [00:01:20] And now Iran's doubled down, is actually attacking ships, not threatening to attack ships. [00:01:24] And I see the comments all over my X feed and everywhere Oh, Jones, you're a loser. [00:01:27] The streak's open again. [00:01:28] We won the war. [00:01:29] See, it's all great. [00:01:30] It's all wonderful. [00:01:31] Totally delusional. [00:01:33] Totally insane. [00:01:35] Do you understand it's on record that the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Pentagon, and the 16 intelligence agencies told Trump, That it was a horrible idea to attack Iran and laid out the scenarios we're now witnessing. [00:01:44] That's what I studied. [00:01:45] That's what I know. [00:01:46] And now we're told we need ground troops. [00:01:48] And it just gets worse and worse and worse. [00:01:50] I also see the claims out there, and this isn't about me, but to understand the problem that, oh, Jones and others are mad they didn't have access to Trump. [00:01:58] And they're mad that they criticized Trump and now he kicked them off the Trump train. [00:02:01] We're off the Trump train because he got off what he stood for before. [00:02:05] Let's just be clear. [00:02:05] I don't want to be at your cool kids' table. [00:02:07] I want to be far away from this stuff, but I want to put pressure on the administration to be sane. [00:02:12] And I want the American people to do that. [00:02:14] Because that's what we're dealing with here a Trump going against everything he stood for. [00:02:19] No prosecutions of the deep state, putting a Democrat lawyer in as the head of the DOJ, worse than even Bill Barr and Jeff Sessions, killing the removal of glyphosate, on and on and on. [00:02:30] He did something good with Joe Rogan today so they can use hallucinogens in medical areas to get people off drugs and also for PTSD. [00:02:38] Joe switched that for years, so I thought that's a great idea. [00:02:40] I still want Trump to do good. [00:02:42] I still support him when he does good on policies and good cabinet members. [00:02:46] By sitting back and being a cult member and just saying yes, yes, yes to the neocons, we allow them to fully take control of Trump. [00:02:52] There's a battle over this right now. [00:02:54] And we're going to lose the midterms as poll numbers are plunging. [00:02:57] That affects the Republicans. [00:02:58] These are facts, ladies and gentlemen. [00:03:01] This is the reality. [00:03:02] And you cannot ignore the fact that the Strait is closed. [00:03:05] You cannot ignore the fact that Israel breaks the ceasefires. [00:03:07] You cannot ignore that we are almost two months into all of this. [00:03:11] And it's just getting worse by the day. [00:03:14] And I see people say, oh, you know, You attacked him, so then he attacked you. [00:03:20] It's all about, oh, you wouldn't have been attacked if you didn't attack him. [00:03:23] I don't give a shit about being cool. [00:03:25] I was invited to Mar Lago multiple times last year, years before that. [00:03:28] I was invited to the White House by Trump and just didn't follow up on it because I don't want to be around the whole political system. [00:03:34] He doesn't do anything to go talk to Trump. [00:03:36] He does whatever he wants, but he does see public pressure, and that has an effect on Congress when we pressure on it. [00:03:42] So this is not junior high. [00:03:44] I don't want to be the class president or something like all you weird. [00:03:49] Remaining weirdo new MAGA people are. [00:03:52] I'm not with all the neocons that were never Trumpers. [00:03:54] I'm not for all these wars. [00:03:57] I'm not for all these changes in Trump. [00:03:58] And I see him constantly being made a fool of by Israel, saying the war is won, saying that the Strait of Hormuz is open, saying everything's great when it's not. [00:04:06] These are facts. [00:04:07] You go to my ex-feet and it says, The Strait's open. [00:04:09] You're a fool. [00:04:10] We won the war. [00:04:11] See, you're an idiot. [00:04:12] And every week Trump says this and people believe it and never remember the last time that he was full of shit. [00:04:17] Iran is up against a wall, but it has that choke point. [00:04:20] So, this is a long, protracted war, already starting to kill the global economy, killing our recovery. [00:04:25] The economists are clear. [00:04:26] It will boost inflation, it will raise interest rates, and then his recovery plan is dead. [00:04:30] And then we go bankrupt, and BlackRock and the globalists are happy. [00:04:33] They used COVID last time to derail Trump's plan, and now they've done this. [00:04:37] And I said it'd probably be a war that would do it, like Iran. [00:04:40] I want the old Trump back. [00:04:42] I want to succeed. [00:04:43] I want to beat the globalists. [00:04:44] I've been persecuted by the Democrats, but I can't sit here and be immoral and support this type of garbage. [00:04:49] That's the facts. [00:04:50] Respond to the facts. [00:04:52] Trump is literally killing MAGA in live time and attacking the only people that were ever loyal to the original message that we got on board to support. [00:04:59] Thank you.
