Tonight's episode of The Goldie Show Live Stream with me, Goldie Gamari, is all about whether or not we are at the beginning of the end of the Islamic Regime in Iran and why you should never trust anything the Islamic regime has to say.
00:02:00.000well hello everyone welcome to tonight's edition
00:02:27.520of the goldie show live stream with me your host goldie gamari welcome everyone and i do apologize
00:02:35.920for running a little bit late um i had a few things that i had to attend to but i am here now
00:02:43.760and just in time because i'm about to tune in to sean hannity because i'm very interested to see
00:02:53.360what he has to say about all of the developments and then of course we're going to get into the
00:03:01.200developments as well and we're going to do a deep dive into whether or not the islamic regime
00:03:10.000is at its end and i really do believe that we are at the beginning of the end of the islamic regime
00:03:17.760and i will explain why so get settled in grab a drink my drink tonight is mango flavored bubbly
00:03:29.680if you can see that there you go mango flavored bubbly it's basically americans you guys call it
00:03:34.640seltzer water but uh you know for me it's or as canadians we call it sparkling water so
00:03:41.360So let's dive right in while we're waiting for Sean Hannity to begin soon.
00:03:51.060President Trump just had a media session and he had a bit of a Q&A, which we are going to review as well.
00:04:01.580But again, I am waiting for Sean Hannity. So I kind of want to watch that and, you know, kind of base my, you know, the rest of my analysis on what is happening and what is being said on Fox News.
00:04:17.620Because, as I've mentioned before, Sean Hannity is one of the people that's really close to President Trump.
00:04:25.680Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Maria Bartiromo are some of the three top key media personalities who seem to have President Trump's ear.
00:07:04.640Lance Bottoms, a name we have not talked a lot about, but the most closely watched race
00:07:09.980of the night, well, that comes out of Kentucky's 4th Congressional District.
00:07:14.020Right there, you have incumbent Tom Massey.
00:07:16.260He has now been defeated by Trump-endorsed challenger Ed Gowrine.
00:07:23.700Now, Massey has represented this red pro-Trump district for 14 years now, but has recently become an outspoken critic and regular opponent of the Republican agenda and the Republican Party, oftentimes voting with Democrats to stonewall the president's agenda.
00:07:41.480for example, his vote against the March 2025 continuing resolution, the one big beautiful bill,
00:07:48.640the largest tax cut in history, his vote for the Iran and Venice, against the Iran and Venezuela
00:07:54.140war by supporting war powers resolutions, repeatedly voting against any aid to Israel.
00:08:01.040Tonight, the voters of Kentucky's fourth district, well, they took advantage of this opportunity to
00:08:06.020right the ship. They delivered for former Navy SEAL, an endorsed candidate. As we just told you,
00:08:12.320Galrine, who will join us later in the program tonight for an exclusive interview. His background
00:08:16.900is amazing. Navy SEAL, incredible guy. I think you'll enjoy meeting him. Also ahead of next
00:08:23.940Tuesday's high profile Texas Senate runoff, President Trump announced his endorsement today.
00:08:29.480Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton over. So really quickly, guys, the fact that
00:08:35.620Massey was very outspoken against, you know, the conflict, or the excursion to Iran. And the fact
00:08:44.860that Massey was against going after the Islamic regime. You know, all you heard in the fake stream
00:08:51.680media is that, oh, like, this is going to ruin MAGA, President Trump's going to lose, you know,
00:08:57.760he's going to lose support. As you can see, in fact, it's the opposite. Because, you know,
00:09:04.380polls, polls are not that reliable. Ultimately, what matters is the ballot box. And as you can
00:09:11.560see, people have shown what they think about President Trump's foreign policy decisions when
00:09:22.200it comes to the Islamic regime, when it comes to Venezuela, through the ballot box, and they're in
00:09:27.640support because um you know having been a politician myself um i'm very familiar with0.98
00:09:34.760you know elections and how they run and all of that guys it's not an easy feat to overthrow
00:09:40.820an incumbent especially an incumbent who has been there for 14 years so the fact that um
00:09:48.580an incumbent of 14 years was just defeated, that's a big deal. And that is a huge sign.
00:09:58.740So you cannot take that lightly. Pick off Thomas Massey, and he's really been a target for some
00:10:04.040time there. Also in the state of Georgia, I'll take you over here to the Senate race. Andy Barr,
00:10:08.960you might remember him as a congressman around the Lexington area. He wants to replace Mitch
00:10:13.320McConnell, an easy winner tonight. It was a three-way race again in Kentucky. You just need
00:10:17.980simple majority you don't have to get that 50 threshold so andy bar with almost 60 oh
00:10:35.340we're having some technical difficulties let me see if i can find another channel here
00:14:11.480I mentioned some of it, you know, voting against the CR, the one big, beautiful bill,
00:14:16.820voted for the War Powers Resolutions, which I think was a mistake,
00:14:23.520repeatedly joined with Democrats to stop the military campaign in Iran,
00:14:28.860and was just downright hostile towards President Trump, Mike Johnson,
00:14:33.880I don't think he would have had the stature or the relationship
00:14:38.560to go in and talk to Mike Johnson or talk to the president on behalf of the people.
00:14:42.580A lot of farmers like yourself, you're a fifth-generation farmer,
00:14:46.800and ask for things and negotiate things the way he was acting.
00:14:50.520So I don't think he was serving the people in your 21 counties particularly well.
00:14:55.140right you are and we'd have to get the coffee out to run through his entire record of betrayal for
00:15:01.860the district to party in our nation simply put what we'd say in kentucky because i'm pretty
00:15:06.800spoken is he went to washington he burned every bridge he burned a bridge factory he ran off
00:15:11.760everybody that would build a bridge to the conservative republicans but again the left-wing
00:15:16.780democrats the radical democrats loved him and his votes against our party in our nation go farther
00:15:23.360back. Now, I want to add one other thing, Sean, for you and the viewers and our conservative
00:15:27.860Republican friends out there. Remember, it wasn't just President Trump. President Trump,
00:15:32.060what, nearly 78 million votes in the presidential race, the most ever for a Republican president.
00:15:37.880He won 31 states, including the swing states, and also 312 electoral votes. And here in this
00:15:43.840district, President Trump won by nearly 85%. He stood against us, but he liked to just single out
00:15:50.140President Trump. All that to say, it's a new day, these people deserve better, and I'm going to give
00:15:54.880it to them. Well, Ed Galrine, congratulations. Welcome to the swamp. Thank you. We do need
00:16:01.520strong voices. I do think our founders and our framers envisioned, especially in the House,
00:16:06.900hardworking Americans that would go to Washington, serve, and go back to their lives. I do believe
00:16:12.340that. I think you'll do a great job. We appreciate you being with us. Congratulations tonight.
00:16:16.640Now, while Republicans move forward with a strong America First agenda and candidates, the same cannot be said for Democrats, who have now made extreme, now the mainstream, as this party now continues its radical shift to the left.
00:19:22.020and then we have to break their spirit.
00:19:23.840Well, break this spirit. Gavin Newsom also weighing in, trying to gaslight the American
00:19:29.460people over the redistricting war, claiming they had to fight fire with fire. Speaking of fires,
00:19:36.380maybe you should think about hydrants with water and reservoirs with water. But why would he ever
00:19:41.320go to work? Take a look. We have to be, dare I say it, I'm sorry, Democrats, that we have to be as
00:19:47.520ruthless as our opposition. We do. We have to win. You just got to win. I'm
00:19:57.000stunned winning arguments with all due respect to the niceties. It feels good,
00:20:01.380but we're going to lose our republic. Again, the honey fathers do not live and1.00
00:20:06.280die for this. You're the reason that America has become what it is today.
00:20:10.520his dream would be to make america just like california that would be an unmitigated disaster
00:20:19.000and of course the left is still pushing comparisons between president trump and adolf hitler
00:20:24.360and comparing ice agents to nazis and gestapo now take a look at these disgusting comments from
00:20:30.580failed minneapolis mayor mayor small fry back in the news take a look there's a historical analog
00:20:38.140here, which is the SS. The SS was unaccountable to the parliament. They answered only to Hitler.
00:20:46.420ICE, also, once they get the funding and have these massive increases to the extent that it's
00:20:51.900larger than the FBI, they largely don't need approvals from the congressional body.
00:20:58.460It is very much Donald Trump's force. Also tonight, President Trump has settled his $10
00:21:05.660billion-dollar lawsuit with the IRS after suing over the illegal disclosure of not only his tax
00:21:12.800records, his entire family, every company owned by the Trump Organization, by a rogue IRS contractor
00:21:19.960who broke the law in doing so. And as part of the agreement, to end this case, the DOJ rightly
00:21:26.900agreed to set aside the patriotic amount of $1.76 billion to settle other claims like this.
00:21:36.200In a statement tonight, the Trump Organization tells us that the settlement helped provide
00:21:40.760accountability for the illegal leak of the tax information of President Trump, his sons,
00:21:46.800and over 500 Trump Organization entities, leaks that resulted in criminal charges,
00:21:53.320prison sentences and the statement also says the settlement sends a very clear bipartisan message
00:22:00.160the weaponization of our federal government and our agencies will no longer be tolerated
00:22:06.100the left axis though the release of personal private tax returns and weaponization what that's
00:22:11.720okay but first back to our top story tonight let's bring in Texas Senator Ted Cruz well the
00:22:17.540president having a good night um and with small majorities you know reagan famously said it i
00:22:24.520know i know you're a reagan historian scholar that if you're 80 for us you're not my enemy
00:22:31.080the problem with people like tom massey and others like him is they're almost never with
00:22:37.760the president and with with slim majorities you can't accomplish things if you don't work as a
00:22:44.020Yeah, look, Sean, that's clearly right. If you vote no 100% of the time, that's a problem. If
00:22:51.460you vote with the Democrats almost 100% of the time, that's a problem. You know, we've got
00:22:56.420exceptionally slim majorities in the House and Senate. I will say in the past year, with President
00:23:02.100Trump in the White House, with the Republican Senate, with the Republican House, we have
00:23:05.720accomplished more in the past year than in any year since you and I have been alive. And I have
00:23:13.300no time for people that just say, no, no, no, no, no. I don't want to do anything. The stakes are
00:23:18.360too high. We're not screwing around. This is not a game. If you want to just criticize everything,
00:23:22.860go write an op-ed online, go write a blog online. But if you're going to take a congressional seat,
00:23:27.580if you're going to have a vote, particularly if we had a 250 vote majority in the House,
00:23:33.120fine, you could vote no, it doesn't matter. But with the excruciatingly narrow vote,
00:23:37.260we can't mess around with this. We've got to deliver real results. And the message that I
00:23:44.320had to my colleagues over and over again, the message, look, I've spent a decade as President
00:23:48.740Trump's strongest ally in the Senate. And I'm focused on working with the president to deliver
00:23:55.140real results. And if you're not focused on that, that's a real problem.
00:24:00.740It is a real problem. I don't think the issues that will define the outcome of
00:24:05.820this midterm year have even happened yet. And by that, I mean, I think the Iran issue will be
00:24:11.460resolved. The president will prevent them from getting nuclear weapons. I think the ensuing0.92
00:24:17.400lowering of the cost of energy, that will make the American people realize it was short-lived
00:24:23.180and that'll give them confidence in the economy. I think all the president's committed investments
00:24:29.980of bringing back manufacturing to the country, I think that's going to have a big impact,
00:24:34.240creating high-paying career jobs at a level. I've never seen, you know, 10, 12, 18 billion,
00:24:40.060a trillion dollars committed investment money in this country. What does that do for the economy
00:24:46.140on top of energy independence, on top of the largest tax cut in history?
00:24:52.100Yeah. Look, I think that's absolutely right. We have a record of success to run on, cutting
00:24:57.460illegal border crossings 99 percent, dropping the murder rate 20 percent, dropping the drug
00:25:03.180overdose deaths, 20 percent, passing the biggest tax cut in American history, passing no tax on
00:25:08.880tips, passing no tax on overtime, passing no tax on Social Security. Big, big victories. Passing
00:25:14.720the biggest school choice program at the federal level in American history, passing the Trump
00:25:19.200accounts, a generational transformational program, both school choice and the Trump accounts. I
00:25:24.580authored both of those. Those are going to impact and benefit millions of kids. That is a record of
00:25:30.500success. And the Democrats, sadly, look, they've devolved into a party that believes in nothing
00:25:37.220but hate for Donald Trump. Orange man bad is the essence of the Democrat party. And it is
00:25:43.780infuriating. You look at Graham Plattner. This guy is a self-described communist. I'm not calling
00:25:48.800him a communist. He says, I am a communist. And this is somebody who put a Nazi tattoo on his
00:25:55.560chest, not just a Nazi tattoo, by the way, not just a swastika, a Totenkampf, which is the symbol
00:26:02.540of the SS. It was interesting. Listen to Mayor Frey talk about the SS. Well, gosh, you're supporting
00:26:08.500a guy. Your whole party is supporting a guy who had an SS symbol. You know what that Totenkampf
00:26:12.720was that was on his chest? It's what the SS wore in the Nazi death camps, the concentration camps
00:26:18.560that were murdering six million Jews. And yet Democrat after Democrat is traveling to Maine,
00:26:25.180Elizabeth Warren. Nazi communist, he's my guy. One after the other after the other. They're0.78
00:26:31.000utter hypocrites. You know, Sean, you and I remember when Roy Moore was running for Senate1.00
00:26:36.040in Alabama. And I and a number of others supported him early on. And then serious allegations came
00:26:41.300out against him of sexually abusing kids and coming on to kids. And a bunch of us pulled back
00:26:49.720and said, you know what? We actually have standards. We actually believe something. Name one Democrat
00:26:55.180in the house or senate who said listen i'm a liberal i like high taxes i'm for open borders
00:27:01.340i'm for all that but i don't support a nazi there is literally not a single one who said
00:27:08.060a nazi communist is too much for me for them it is all about power and is there any decency is
00:27:15.020there any so actually that's not fair john fetterman is the lone democrat who has said
00:27:21.820enough is enough. Is there anybody else? I don't think there is. I can't name one, Senator. This
00:27:28.260is a party run by radical, hard leftist squad, AOC, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren. And it's
00:27:35.140power, power, power. It's all they care about. And what's worse is nobody will stand up to them.
00:27:41.220Chuckie Schumer wouldn't dare. Hakeem Jeffries wouldn't dare. Their viral rhetoric will come
00:27:46.300back to bite them. They have no agenda that will appeal to the middle of this country. I'll tell
00:27:50.180that senator ted cruz thank you for being with us and coming up breaking news tonight the justice
00:27:55.860department is set to announce the formal indictment of rio castro we'll bring a live report with all
00:28:02.100the details also president trump is once again showing america's strength on the global stage
00:28:07.780we'll check in with general jack keane he's next as we continue
00:28:11.060Okay. So Iran is next. So looking forward to that. Um, so before, while we're, you know,
00:28:23.320in a commercial break, um, keep an eye out for my next video. Uh, I don't know why it took me so
00:28:32.940long to, to make my upcoming video. Um, I haven't published it yet, but it is unlisted. So, um,
00:28:41.060I'm going to make it, you know, I'll have it go live once the live stream is done.
00:28:47.620But let me give you a little, let me give you a little sample here of my video.
00:28:56.300So this is what you can expect when you watch the full thing once I publish it later this evening.
00:29:04.160We need to talk about something that would have sounded impossible just a few years ago.0.92
00:29:09.820The Islamic Republic occupying Iran is entering the most dangerous period in its entire modern existence.0.75
00:29:18.580And I don't say that lightly, because for 47 years, this brutal regime has survived war, it has survived sanctions, assassinations, isolation, economic collapse, internal protests, international pressure, cyber warfare, and regional conflict.0.72
00:29:40.460But what happened on February 28, 2026 changed the political psychology of Iran0.92
00:29:49.300and the Islamic regime occupying Iran forever.0.87
00:29:53.760I'm talking about Ali Khamenei, who was exterminated on February 28.
00:30:00.800Iran's formerly supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, is dead.
00:30:07.980This wretched and vile man had the blood of hundreds and even thousands of Americans on his hands and was responsible for the slaughter of countless thousands of innocent people all across many countries.
00:30:25.060Last night, all over Iran, the voices of the Iranian people could be heard cheering and celebrating in the streets when his death was announced.0.98
00:30:35.480and suddenly the islamic republic no longer looks permanent and that's the key point0.85
00:30:43.260because for decades the islamic regime built its entire image around inevitability its message was
00:30:52.980we survived everyone we control everything there is no alternative the revolution is eternal then
00:31:01.960Then suddenly the supreme leader was killed.
00:31:28.320And whether people support the regime or oppose it, everyone understands one undeniable truth.
00:35:24.880All previously enriched uranium at 60 percent, the 900 pounds of it, must be turned over to the U.S.
00:35:31.200Iran must open the Strait of Hormuz, leave it open, and they must abandon their ballistic missile program.0.88
00:35:37.500That would be good for Europe and the world.0.81
00:35:39.060Iran can never have a nuclear weapon. Iran must stop supporting nuclear proxies.0.97
00:35:43.980And Congress must approve this deal with reaction to all the latest developments around the world.
00:35:49.440Our senior strategic analyst, our friend General Jack Keene, is back with us.
00:35:53.520General, I think what the president has been messaging the country, that list I just laid out, is exactly the deal that they'll have to take.
00:36:02.180I don't think he's changing his mind. I wouldn't expect it at all.
00:36:04.820yeah well you're absolutely right about that sean i mean the president is not going to make
00:36:10.240a bad deal i mean he's he's the nation's backstop here for sure but what's been going on here i mean
00:36:16.220the we're six weeks into what was supposed to be a two-week deadline to get a deal and and it just0.99
00:36:24.360seems to be kicking down the road time and time again it looks like the pakistanis i think are
00:36:30.920working with the Iranians and keep offering incentives to make a deal. We're getting closer
00:36:36.380to the deal. But then when it comes to actually putting the facts on the table, there's no deal
00:36:42.140of substance there that we're willing to accept. And I think just for the sake of our audience here,
00:36:48.040for them to understand that even if we did make a deal, one of the provisions of the deal will be
00:36:53.920to unfreeze some of the assets, $100 billion, maybe not all of it at once, but some of it,
00:36:58.940and then condition the rest of it, and unfreeze the sanctions that have been imposed.
00:37:04.140And that begins to finance not only the survival of the regime, but the recovery of it.
00:37:09.780And that means we're dealing with them for years to come.
00:49:45.660I have a few more videos that I want to watch and share with you guys.
00:49:50.260And, you know, the the political nerd in me, like I, I am planning on watching the entire three hour, you know, video stream of Admiral Brad Cooper testifying before the House committee.
00:50:08.240That was from earlier today. I don't know if I want to make you guys suffer through that, though, because, you know, like I'm again, like I'm like a big political nerd.
00:50:18.840I love Senate hearings, congressional hearings, things like that. So I don't know if I want to
00:50:25.560put you guys through all of that. I'll think about it. Because I like watching these things
00:50:32.260and giving my commentary and all that. But let's see how it's going. I might do a special
00:50:40.820live stream. Um, maybe tomorrow morning, not sure yet, but, uh, there's a few other videos that I
00:50:48.600did want to share. So this one, um, like share and also watch. And guys, the reason, the reason
00:50:55.400that I watch media, um, I want to make it very clear. It's not necessarily because I'm looking
00:51:03.300for information on Iran because I already know what's going on. The reason that I watch American
00:51:12.460media and, you know, only certain specific media outlets, right? And Fox News is one of those.
00:51:18.440The reason that I watch American media is because it allows me to gauge the temperature, right?
00:51:25.240Because usually I find that the rhetoric and the narrative that is being shared by certain broadcasters, it kind of lets me know where President Trump's head is at, because these are the same people and broadcasters that, you know, President Trump is sharing on his truth social.
00:51:51.600So that's why I watch this because it gives me a better understanding of how people are sort of laying the groundwork when it comes to the war.
00:52:06.720Because the war is not just about the military aspect, it's also the psychological aspect of it as well.
00:52:14.680Okay, so let's watch this video from Fox News Business that was posted recently.
00:52:21.600um and then i'll i'll put a poll uh later and we have a troll who's the troll all right and then
00:52:29.600i'll do a poll later um you know what i'll probably do the three hour congressional
00:52:34.320hearing i might do that tomorrow if you honestly if you guys are interested in watching the three
00:52:39.680hour congressional video with me um i'll do that separately i can do that tomorrow morning maybe
00:52:46.560So for more on this, let's bring in Aaron Cohen, Israeli special ops veteran and founder of the Gideon and of Gideon, former National Security Council Chief of Staff.
00:52:58.300Alex, let's start with you. The last time it felt like the negotiations were going somewhere, maybe from the outside looking in, it felt like the impasse was over in rich uranium.
00:53:09.220How long they would, you know, how much they would give up, how long they would put the program on the shelf.
00:53:13.860could we could we be getting back to that pretty soon? Because if it sounded today like
00:53:19.980Vice President Vance, it's pretty clear that the clock is much closer to midnight than many
00:53:25.160may expect. Yeah, Charles, I think we're going to have to have a clear discussion where the
00:53:32.000Iranians can no longer delay on what to do with the highly enriched uranium and what to do with0.86
00:53:36.780the nuclear program. It's almost as if the Iranians and maybe some domestic audiences
00:53:41.180are so not used to American politicians meaning what they say and saying what they mean
00:53:46.320that they can't even process that President Trump has said consistently since 2015
00:53:51.300he will not tolerate an Iranian nuclear weapon.0.81
00:53:54.700So we're doing exactly what the president has consistently said across both presidencies.0.72
00:53:59.480And I think, Charles, where we're headed is the president has got the blockade.
00:54:04.000He's had the American military rearming, getting ready in the region with our deployed forces.0.97
00:54:08.480I think the president is now in a position where the Iranians have this opportunity to put up or shut up.0.97
00:54:14.260And if not, I think the president is truly ready to re-engage kinetically.0.98
00:54:18.340Erin, we're, you know, we're rearming and loading, getting reloaded.
00:54:23.820Someone's asking if I have a new sponsor.
00:54:25.880Guys, I have not had a single sponsor.
00:54:28.680When I say that tonight's, you know, bubbly flavor is like, you know,
00:54:34.120tonight's show is sponsored by bubbly mango flavor that's a joke i'm not actually sponsored
00:54:40.540by anyone i mean i don't have any sponsorship deals it's just a running joke because um i just
00:54:46.700always drink bubbly while i'm live streaming and you know i always have like different flavors of
00:54:51.180bubbly so it's like an inside joke yeah that's what it is it's not like an actual sponsor
00:54:58.100Loaded, but if you read the New York Times, it sounds like we did nothing. Everything that
00:55:07.780happened in Iran, they've rebuilt it, they've added to it, they're better prepared. And the
00:55:12.180only reason that we didn't attack was that they've gotten reconnaissance and help from Russia and
00:55:17.560China. And we can't surprise them anymore that we're actually the weaker link right now.
00:55:24.220Well, that's why I don't read the New York Times. It's good to see you, Charles.
00:55:27.500Let me back up for a second. Let me set the table a little bit here. I think I need to reset everybody who may be watching. We have to understand where Iran was just weeks ago. Their proxy network degraded. Their strategic deterrence absolutely obliterated. Their key infrastructure hits across the board. Their air defense capability took existence.
00:55:47.900So the regime understands that the United States and Israel are willing to move farther than Tehran or the Middle East or the world ever expected.
00:55:55.380And so that changes the psychological battlefield completely.
00:55:58.840I want to make it clear. Iran is only at the table negotiating because of President Trump's leadership vision.
00:56:07.660Israeli generated intel with that U.S. muscle and might and tactical capability.
00:56:13.060And so the Trump, I think what happened was him saying, hey, we're just hours away.
00:56:19.080What he's doing is what he has always done throughout this campaign, which isn't just applying maximum pressure.
00:56:25.720It's maximum uncertainty. And that uncertainty, in my opinion, is the pressure.
00:56:33.280And so when the president says we're an hour away from strikes, that message isn't just for the U.S.
00:56:38.400That's for the IRDC, for Tehran, whatever supreme leader is running the show right now, the intelligence apparatus inside of Iran.
00:56:46.980And so you're one decision away from another strike package.
00:56:52.520And so I think that's going to force the regime to operate under that constant pressure and instability.
00:56:58.620And I really think we're just moments away from him dialing this up.
00:57:03.300that pressure it seems needs to come back and it needs to come back within the next days that's
00:57:09.980where i'm at so aaron i want to ask you this as well alex but aaron let me stick with you on this
00:57:14.680uh the notion that you have uh odds within iran you've got uh you know two factions there but they
00:57:20.860do agree on one thing they love what they've been able to achieve with the straight they like to use
00:57:24.660it as a money source as a power source are you buying that no not i mean i'm buying that they
00:57:30.340love to use it as a power. Look, let me answer that. The regime is still the regime. And I think
00:57:35.620that's the part that people are forgetting. Nothing ideologically, in my opinion, or from
00:57:41.840my intelligence sources on the ground, tells me that anything has changed inside the Iranian
00:57:46.660regime. The IRGC is still the IRGC. They're going to use whatever they have with the straight
00:57:53.160to keep creating that chaos and buy time. So they still want that regional dominance. They still
00:57:58.820want to project that they just want to destabilize and they still view america and israel and always
00:58:06.060will as long-term adversaries so the question is whether pressure can force temporary concessions
00:58:15.180i think we have to move back to kinetic operations and that's the tactical pause that i think the
00:58:21.320president has been preparing for he's not he's not a dumb guy he's very strategic so i think we're
00:58:26.880going to see that start to re-kick. It's just a matter of days. Alex, speaking of the kinetic0.55
00:58:33.640pressure, last night, the Wall Street Journal reports that we seized an oil tank, an Iranian
00:58:39.860oil tank, or Skyway, a million barrels of oil on it. A lot of folks watching this saying, hey,
00:58:45.400if we're patient, cutting off their ability to transport their oil will ultimately break their
00:58:53.980economy, will crash their economy, could spark the uprising that many have been hoping for,
00:58:58.360and maybe we should be more patient with this. Your thoughts.
00:59:02.380Look, I think that that would work in a perfect world. The reality is between U.S. domestic
00:59:07.260politics, the politics in our Asian and European allies, we don't have unlimited time. We don't
00:59:12.420have that level of patience. And I agree with Aaron's point. Going kinetic again in a targeted
00:59:17.460way against a regime that remains an implacable ideological foe of the U.S. and the West,
00:59:22.760That is probably where the president's going to have to be to execute the goals that he has been unambiguous about for a decade.0.87
00:59:30.040No nuclear weapons, destroying the proxies, keeping Iran in its box in the Middle East.0.74
00:59:36.000And as much as I think we'd all like to allow the U.S. Navy to do what it does well, execute this blockade,0.57
00:59:41.720I just don't think that the timelines politically around the world and here are going to allow us to do that without a kinetic escalation like Epic Fury.
00:59:50.580So, Alex, then the ultimate part of this, the last mile, so to speak, it's hard to get these speedboats.
00:59:59.240It's hard to get these folks encamped along the banks with drones.
01:00:02.440Would we have to ultimately have boots on the ground?
01:00:05.120Look, I don't think we're going to have boots on the ground.
01:00:07.240I don't think that's a direction the president's going to go.
01:00:11.040I think the president's been one of the most eloquent spokesmen over the last several decades
01:00:16.580for an American strategic focus on the Middle East that is not overcommitting,
01:00:22.580that takes into account the experiences we had in Iraq and Afghanistan.
01:00:26.380I think the president can accomplish the goals that he's trying to accomplish here,0.96
01:00:30.440keep Iran contained, get the regime to operate within an American set of boxes of left and0.97
01:00:37.420right bounds. He could do that without having to use boots on the ground.0.96
01:00:41.040Aaron, President Trump returned from China with reassurances from President Xi there with respect to Iran. How much faith do you have in that?
01:00:52.380I think, you know, I think the game was played. You know, everybody dumping their cell phones into bins. You got to be careful with China. You know, China's got the most strategic interest here. It's about that oil. It's about that energy.1.00
01:01:05.060China is also using satellite technology and imagery to give away U.S. military positions to the Islamic regime so the IRGC could attack U.S. military.0.64
01:01:19.260Like that's what China has been doing. So you can't trust China.0.87
01:01:22.700So I think President Trump is on to them. I think he's just going to continue to focus on this dangerous zone that we're in right now with Iran.0.94
01:01:32.900Keep it focused on that particular area of interest.0.96
01:01:36.640Look, the biggest danger right now is psychological complacency.0.65
01:01:41.260And the second the world, the second China, Charles, starts convincing itself that this issue was solved and that the president and the U.S. and Israel backed into a corner,0.57
01:01:51.000the regime gains operational breathing room i think president trump knows that so at the end0.82
01:01:56.560of the day i think what we're going to have to see here is that kinetic uh re-kick of the flame
01:02:01.880of the spark right because the real goal is forcing that regime in a position where the cost
01:02:07.620of continuing to drag this thing out becomes higher than the cost of compromise and i think
01:02:12.420that's what we're going to start inching ourselves towards here yeah ashley webster i i agree with
01:02:18.020100 percent okay one more and then we're gonna go to some updates because i've been really curious
01:02:24.660to watch this one president trump hits pause holding off on plans to resume bombing iran
01:02:30.900was set for today giving talks more time to hammer out a deal at the request of key gulf allies
01:02:37.060welcome to a brand new hour of america's newsroom i'm dana farino morning to you
01:02:41.220good quick first hour i would say right zoomed right time here we go i'm bill hammer good morning
01:02:45.540at home, President Trump directing his military commanders to be ready for action at a moment's
01:02:50.500notice. This is Gulf states remain on edge amid a shaky ceasefire. Retired Vice Admiral Robert
01:02:57.620Harward telling us last hour the president has time on his side, however. Patience may be a little
01:03:06.220short of the real objective here. The president has time on his hands. He controls the narrative.
01:03:13.540He controls the strike capabilities, and he knows that the policy he set with the blockade has had short-term and long-term effects on the regime and the people of Iran.
01:03:26.100So he's been very astute in leveraging that time.
01:03:30.260All right, let's get to a new hour. It starts right now live in Dubai, and Jeff Hall is on duty there.
01:03:36.560yeah bill and i would say there's definitely an overwhelming sense of relief among the folks who
01:03:42.720we've spoken to here in the uae you know just a couple days ago there was a drone attack at a
01:03:48.060nearby nuclear power plant and since then there's just been a growing sense of anxiety amongst folks
01:03:53.300that the war would once again resume well president trump seemingly putting those fears to bed saying
01:03:59.000that serious negotiations are now taking place in fact qatar's foreign ministry spokesperson just
01:04:04.840said that communication is ongoing between leaders in the region and with quote conflict parties to
01:04:10.820prevent a return to escalation. But President Trump has told his military leaders to be prepared
01:04:16.000to go forward with a large scale assault of Iran on a moment's notice in the event an acceptable
01:04:21.500deal isn't reached. In response, an Iranian army spokesperson reportedly told a local news agency
01:04:27.340Iran will quote open new fronts against the U.S. if attacks resume. Residents in Tehran accused
01:04:33.740really open new fronts what what exactly are you going to do what new fronts are you going to be
01:04:41.960opening are you are you referring to i don't know the children the children that you're giving guns
01:04:47.580to and you're you know you're training the the children of the islamic regime officials right
01:04:53.380like is that is that the new front that you're referring to like this is like what weapons guys0.53
01:04:58.940The Islamic regime has been boasting about how they have the secret weapon that they're going to employ against the United States since February 28th.
01:05:09.020Since the day that Khamenei was boom-boomed, the Islamic regime has claimed that they have some sort of like secret weapon that they're planning on using against the Americans.0.94
01:07:37.580Okay, the same United Nations that literally put the Islamic regime on a committee that allows it to shape policy, like counterterrorism policy and policy on women's rights, that United Nations, the same United Nations that enables the Islamic regime to survive, the same United Nations that shakes hands with the Islamic regime, that United Nations, the one that's become globally insignificant.0.93
01:08:02.380No constraint to freedom of navigation on the high seas and on the streets.0.88
01:08:10.620Oh, it's so great that the United Nations cares more about freedom of navigation for0.94
01:08:14.720the Islamic regime than it does about the fact that the Islamic regime has slaughtered0.70
01:08:19.360over 40,000 innocent Iranians in two days alone.
01:08:23.420And so we don't want any particular entity to restrict that freedom of access.0.98
01:08:31.380Yeah, well, what you want is irrelevant because you want the Iranian people to be oppressed and murdered.0.99
01:08:36.540And the United Nations is garbage.1.00
01:08:40.320Now, while there is that sense of relief here in the Gulf, there's also some cautious optimism0.98
01:08:45.980because we have sort of been here before where there was talks of a new strike on Iran,
01:09:14.200I want to read to you from the Institute for the Study of War.
01:09:16.360Their analysis says that the IRGC-affiliated outlets continue to threaten commercial and digital activity linked to the Strait of Hormuz
01:09:23.640as part of broader regime efforts to institutionalize Iranian authority over the waterway.
01:09:28.680If you're in the situation room this morning, I mean, isn't that the nub of what has to be addressed here?0.58
01:09:35.940Yes, I think we're at a situation where without using military force, you're not going to get or compel the Iranians to make the types of concessions that are necessary.0.59
01:09:45.620And certainly in the near term, not to be able to visibly and very demonstrably prove that the Iranians cannot hold the shipping that passes through the Straits or Hormuz at risk or grave risk.0.79
01:09:58.260And I think military action is becoming increasingly likely, as we know now the president was planning that.0.65
01:10:05.420And I think that's probably necessary to get to the type of conclusion and negotiations that the United States needs.
01:10:11.700There's some analysis today in The New York Times suggesting that Iran was ready for a three-month war of intense, heavy bombing.
01:10:19.100And also, if the bombing returns, that they're going to get ready to batten down the hatches.
01:11:13.000I think it's not a lack of effort on their part that their proxies, the Houthis, Hezbollah, and of course Hamas, have not been more active in attacking U.S. interests and our allies than they have.
01:11:26.240Most notably is the absence of the Houthis in attacking shipping there.
01:11:30.200So I'm not sure it's because the Iranians have some new weapon or new, I guess, support to their proxies that's in store for us.0.95
01:15:16.500Let me go to a few of the super chats before we continue, because I know there have been some super chats.
01:15:23.480So William says that there is even a 14 year incumbent is a bigger problem than his voting record.
01:15:30.880I mean, yes and no. There I mean, there are certain people who've been politicians for quite a long time.
01:15:37.480But, you know, so so what William is speaking about Massey and Massey being overthrown because he was a 14 year incumbent.
01:15:45.640And I mean, yes and no, it depends. I mean, if you do a good job, you know, I guess there you can be there for a while.
01:15:52.380And, you know, again, as a former politician, I've seen it all.
01:15:56.880So I've seen politicians who've been around for a very long time who are terrible.
01:16:03.020And, you know, they're basically in districts in Canada. We call them ridings.
01:16:07.240They're basically in ridings where, you know, you could run like, I don't know, a cardboard.
01:16:12.120You could you could run a piece of cardboard. And if it's the right political party, that cardboard would get elected. So those politicians tend to be a little bit lazier. But then I've also you know, I've also known politicians who've been incumbents for a very long time. And they are still, you know, very passionate about what they do. So, you know, there's there's good and bad there.
01:16:33.200But I know Massey was definitely a terrible person. I'm very glad that he has lost his seat. And again, it's no small feat. So I think that's a big deal. It also gives a good indication of where, you know, the average American voter is in their head when it comes to President Trump's foreign policy.
01:16:57.400So keep that in mind. That's the biggest indicator. And that is a way more accurate tell than, you know, polls or things like that. And, you know, polls are always biased and it always depends on who's conducting the poll, what their sample base is, the sample size, all of that stuff.
01:17:14.240So ultimately, you know, polls are okay, but the most definitive way to determine where the, you know, where Americans' heads are at politically is at the ballot box.
01:17:30.560And Americans made that very clear in the case of Massey.
01:17:34.780I got a super sticker from General Zubas.
01:17:40.140um will william says your videos taught me to stop hating all muslims good um
01:17:48.920islamic muslims were only two to four percent big difference i don't i think what you mean
01:17:55.440is maybe like radical muslims like the jihadis um the jihadis are actually 25 so uh 25 uh you
01:18:03.760know of the entire like muslim population 20 to 25 percent of them are actually radical so it's
01:18:09.900not two to 4%. Um, but yeah, like, you know, you should, you should make a distinction between,0.94
01:18:16.300you know, people who just practice a certain faith, um, versus, um, Islamic extremist terrorists.
01:18:23.880Cause there is a difference. Um, again, I don't really get into, um, the religious side of things
01:18:29.900cause that's not like, that's not what I do. My focus is geopolitics and Islamic terrorism. Um,0.91
01:18:37.040So, yeah, but I mean, I mean, there are other channels that talk about, like, faith and whatever, and, you know, people have their opinions on everything.
01:18:45.900My opinion is that religion is something private.
01:19:48.980You missed not a lot because I've kind of gone through everything and we're still going over some updates.
01:19:55.160but welcome. You were watching videos of dogs interrupting interviews. Okay. Good to know.
01:20:04.440Cool. I hope they were funny. Welcome. All right. Mark of Reality says the United Nations
01:20:11.960that actually believe they matter. I agree. The UN is completely useless. Without American money
01:20:17.980and support, they don't. It's also outdated. India is a major superpower and therefore
01:20:24.360they should be permanent members of the Security Council. Yeah, you know, that is an interesting
01:20:29.600point. Yeah, like the UN Security Council has pretty much become completely useless because
01:20:36.500the UN Security Council is currently in like a Cold War situation with the United States on one
01:20:43.080side and then Russia and China on the other. So, I mean, I agree the UN is completely useless.0.87
01:20:49.100I also believe that that's why President Trump. Oh, sorry. This is a this is the comment. I forgot to share it. I also believe that this is why President Trump has created his board of peace, because the board of peace is essentially going to the board of peace is essentially going to replace the United Nations.
01:21:11.100Nations. Oh, so the person was asking me about my watch. Yes, my watch battery is dead. I mentioned
01:21:18.040that yesterday. I need to replace the battery. I haven't had time. So yes, my watch battery
01:21:23.680is dead. I wear it for fashion statement only for fashion. Push-ups. We need better politicians.
01:21:33.340I miss Rob. Okay. Yeah. I mean, um, I hope, you know, Rob rest in peace. God bless his soul.
01:21:43.220Um, and then we have Mark of reality. Why is the Ayatollah a Supreme leader? Is he covered with
01:21:50.480all the good pizza toppings? Uh, actually the reason that he's called the Supreme leader
01:21:56.260is because, you know, like, uh, it's, it's like a Supreme taco, right? So you have a regular taco
01:22:01.900and then the supreme taco comes with sour cream and tomatoes i think my sister actually made a
01:22:09.640meme about this let me see if i can find the meme give me one moment here um where was it
01:22:17.120like there was like a whole taco bell thing here yeah so the supreme dictator comes with um
01:22:50.060if my sister is watching supreme leader
01:23:04.140okay i can't find it now but anyways my sister go ahead pat if you're watching um send me the
01:23:15.520link to your, you know what, actually, maybe I can, let me just do this really quick. I'm sure
01:23:20.040I can find it on her ex account. Give me one moment. I can't find it. I can't find it, but
01:23:42.920I'll find it later. You know what? Now I need to find this. Anyways, wait. Now I'm on a mission to
01:23:56.640find this. Oh, I found it. I found it. I found it. Okay. So here's the guys. See, I told when I,
01:24:17.860when I'm on a mission, I will find it. So the difference between a regular leader and a supreme
01:24:27.160leader is that the supreme leader comes with sour cream and tomatoes. So there you go. I knew I knew
01:24:37.780I had it somewhere. I knew I had it somewhere. I just had to like find the picture and I did.
01:24:45.360So there you go. That's a meme that my sister made. So yeah, that's the supreme leader, right? Because you have like a regular taco and then you have the taco supreme, right? Regular nachos, nachos supreme. So yeah, that's the difference between regular leader and a supreme leader.
01:25:08.700I don't know what the difference is, honestly, but I, you know, if I, if I was going to give an answer, that would be, you know, the answer there. So, yeah. Okay. And then my final super chat for now is Wiley Coyote. If I didn't know better, Goldie is more aligned with MAGA than Canada. Yes, the UN is a joke. Join US Goldie and leave the dark side Canada. Guys, I can't just move to the United States. I'm not, I'm not an American citizen, but I'm definitely,
01:25:38.700way more aligned with mega, 100%, 100% aligned with mega, because patriotism is really important.
01:25:51.400And in fact, it's not just like a Goldie thing, right? The vast majority of Iranians are aligned
01:26:00.020with mega. And that's why we have our miga movement, right? Make Iran great again, because1.00
01:26:07.040our movement is all about patriotism. It's about reclaiming the Iranian identity and the Iranian
01:26:15.800flag, right? Okay, so now I want to go to this update that we have not spoken about,
01:26:25.880but it is very, very important, okay? So this is what the U.S. Treasury Department put out today,
01:26:33.960Right? Scott Besant. And why is this important, guys? Because this, once again, demonstrates that anyone who thinks the war is over with the Islamic regime, they don't know what they're talking about, and they're not looking at the entire picture.
01:26:54.300because again war is not about military operations war is psychological military
01:27:02.280it's also economic and look at this news from the U.S. Treasury Department that came out today
01:27:12.660that hasn't really made it into the news cycle because there has been you know so much other
01:27:19.260news. It's also primary day in a lot of other, you know, a lot of other states. So let's go
01:27:24.980through this together. Today, as a part of economic fury, remember, there's epic fury,
01:27:32.840which is the military boom, boom side. And then there's economic fury, which is the economic side.
01:27:40.260So as a part of economic fury, Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control designated a prominent
01:27:47.920Iranian foreign currency exchange house and associated front companies that oversee hundreds
01:27:56.320of millions of dollars in transactions on behalf of sanctioned Iranian banks. Collectively,
01:28:04.960Iranian exchange houses facilitate billions of dollars in foreign currency transactions each
01:28:12.500year, enabling the regime and its armed forces to evade sanctions, access the international
01:28:19.800financial system, and move funds derived from oil and petrochemical sales. Why is this a big deal?
01:28:29.120Because these, you know, exchange houses, this is a big business, right? And, you know, so in
01:28:36.580Persian, we call them satarafi, right? These satarafis exist everywhere. Guys, even in Canada,0.93
01:28:44.420Canada is full of these, you know, shady exchange houses, and there's so many of them.1.00
01:28:54.920Let me see if I can find an article.1.00
01:29:26.760Oh, my gosh. I hate Canadian media. That's all like.0.97
01:29:37.980All right. I can't find any right now because Canadian media is messed up. But anyway, so like this is a big deal.
01:29:43.300Anyways, I wanted to read the actual press statement, the press release from the U.S. Department of Treasury, because, again, we have not seen this in the mainstream media yet, and this is kind of a big deal.
01:30:18.340Today, as part of Economic Fury, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control
01:30:24.880designated a prominent Iranian foreign currency exchange house and associated front companies
01:30:31.200that oversee hundreds of millions. Actually, let me just change my view here for a moment.
01:30:37.500There we go. Is this better? No, I'll just keep it here. All right. That exchanges, where is it?
01:30:46.860Oversee hundreds of millions of dollars in transactions on behalf of sanctioned Iranian
01:30:52.220banks. Collectively, Iranian exchange houses facilitate billions of dollars in foreign
01:31:01.720currency transactions each year, enabling the regime and its armed forces to evade sanctions,
01:31:10.880access the international financial system, and move funds derived from oil and petrochemical
01:31:16.880sales. OFAC today also blocked 19 vessels in Iranian petroleum and petrochemical shipments
01:31:25.580to foreign customers, transactions that have generated hundreds of millions of dollars in
01:31:31.060revenue. Together, today's actions further reduce the revenue available to the Iranian regime
01:31:38.020to develop weapons, support terrorist proxies, and siphon funds outside Iran for personal
01:31:44.800enrichment. Iran's shadow banking system facilitates the illicit transfer of funding
01:31:50.980for terrorist purposes, said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Besant. As Treasury systematically
01:31:58.100dismantles Tehran's shadow banking system and shadow fleet under economic fury, financial0.68
01:32:05.420institutions must be alert to how the regime manipulates the international financial system0.85
01:32:11.960to wreak havoc. Economic fury delivers maximum pressure on Iran. And guys, keep in mind, remember,0.97
01:32:20.720the policy that the Iranian people and, of course, His Royal Highness Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi0.93
01:32:28.280have always called for is maximum pressure on the Islamic regime and maximum support for the
01:32:35.640Iranian people. So these sanctions are another element and another aspect of maximum pressure.0.97
01:32:44.060The Treasury Department is maintaining maximum pressure on Iran, they mean the Islamic regime,
01:32:49.500and targeting the regime's ability to generate, move, and repatriate funds. Treasury is aggressively
01:32:57.520advancing economic fury and has disrupted billions in projected oil revenue, taken actions that have
01:33:05.440led to the freezing of nearly half a billion dollars in regime-linked cryptocurrency and
01:33:11.600cracked down on Tehran's shadow banking networks. In addition, Treasury has resigned networks
01:33:19.720supplying weapons and other military components to Iran. Treasury has also sanctioned a corrupt
01:33:26.440Iraqi official who has... Guys, it's always the Iraqis. Do you know why? Do you know why it's1.00
01:33:33.480always the Iraqis, because the Islamic regime, like they come from Najaf, they come from Iraq.0.99
01:33:41.960Like some of them come, like half of them come from like Najaf and Iraq, and the other half0.65
01:33:46.680come from like Lebanon, because the Shias, the Shias all originated in Lebanon, and they came0.95
01:33:52.040to Iran 400 years ago. So it's always, it's always the Iraqi officials. And you know, the guy,0.98
01:33:59.440the guy that the FBI arrested yesterday, the, you know, Qatai, Hezbollah, whatever dude,
01:34:07.360that was, you know, the Iran-backed terrorist, he was also Iraqi. He's also from Adok, right?
01:34:14.120All these terrorists, they're not even Iranian. They're literally from, like, all the other1.00
01:34:18.620countries. Yeah, they're all the Tazis. They're the Tazitons. Exactly, right? So, there you go.1.00
01:34:25.020Corrupt Iraqi official who has facilitated the sale of oil along with Iran-backed militias operating in Iraq.
01:34:34.060Treasury will vigorously target both traditional sanctions, evasion schemes, and the exploitation of digital assets while continuing to freeze funds stolen from the Iranian people.0.67
01:34:49.060So they're making it very clear that they're freezing all the funds stolen from the Iranian people. So this lets me know that there is a plan for the day after the Islamic regime falls, right?0.60
01:35:02.080Like everything that the United States is doing is they're literally preparing for the day after the Islamic regime falls because the reason that they're freezing the funds for the Iranian people is because they are anticipating that there will come a day sooner rather than later that the Islamic regime will be overthrown.0.81
01:35:24.660and all of these funds, all of this money that has been stolen by the Islamic regime
01:35:31.860that actually belongs to the Iranian people, this will all go back to the Iranian people.
01:35:37.840These are the nuances in messaging that a lot of people don't really think about.
01:35:45.880Treasury is also prepared to take action against any foreign company
01:35:50.800supporting illicit Iranian commerce, including airlines, and as necessary, may impose secondary
01:35:58.680sanctions on foreign financial institutions that facilitate Iran's activities, including those
01:36:06.160connected to the People's Republic of China's independent teapot oil refineries. Boom. Remember,
01:36:14.780Remember, I literally made a video a few days ago where I explained why President Trump took
01:36:22.840Scott Besant to China, right? It wasn't about appeasement. The reason that President Trump
01:36:30.160took Scott Besant to China is because he was sending China a very strong message that your
01:36:37.760behind the scenes shenanigans with the Islamic regime are over, right? And that they're no longer
01:36:46.460going to tolerate China's shenanigans with the Islamic regime. And if you want to watch that0.53
01:36:53.580video, let me just pull it up really quickly so I can share it with you. So on my YouTube channel,
01:37:00.780it's, you know, just go to my channel and it's literally Goldie Unfiltered. And it's this one,
01:37:05.820Trump's China trip was not appeasement. Here's why. And I have a whole section where I talk
01:37:11.820about Scott Besant. So there you go, guys, right there, right? President Trump taking Scott to
01:37:20.260China was a big message. Oops, let me fix this here. It's on my screen. Anyways, that was a big
01:37:27.880message. All right, let's continue. Through the blockade, the Trump administration is directly
01:37:34.620targeting the regime's primary revenue stream. Any person or vessel facilitating the illicit
01:37:42.000trade of oil or other commodities through covert trade or financial channels risks exposure to US
01:37:50.000sanctions. Today's action is being taken pursuant to Executive Order 13902, which targets persons
01:37:58.540operating in Iran's financial, petroleum, or petrochemical sectors. These designations
01:38:05.420build on a series of OFAC actions targeting Iran's shadow banking mechanisms, including
01:38:13.780exchange houses, Iranian bank Rahbar companies, digital asset exchanges, and facilitators used
01:38:21.760to evade sanctions. Additionally, the U.S. Department of State's Rewards for Justice
01:38:28.360program is offering a reward of up to $15 million for information leading to the disruption of
01:38:37.000financial mechanisms of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and its various branches.
01:38:44.200More information is available on the RFJ website. Guys, we need to check this out.
01:38:48.160Maybe we should do some digging around and maybe we could find some info and then we could like, you know, guys, let's find some info. I'll share the $15 million with you. Let's look at that after.
01:39:02.480so amin exchange the iranian regime's shadow banking networks are composed of numerous
01:39:11.540exchange houses that oversee a sprawling network of foreign front companies which allows sanctioned
01:39:19.140iranian banks and their respective rahbar companies to facilitate receipt of funds from
01:39:25.000Iran's overseas sales of oil and petrochemicals, among other goods.
01:39:30.840Iran-based Ebrahimi & Associates Partnership Company, commonly known as Amin Exchange,
01:39:37.560is a significant player in Iran's foreign exchange market and has facilitated hundreds
01:39:43.800of millions of dollars in foreign transactions for sanctioned Iranian persons.
01:39:50.360AminExchange has collaborated with sanctioned Iranian banks and petrochemical exporters
01:39:55.120to include the National Iranian Oil Company, Persian Gulf Petrochemical Industry Commercial
01:40:01.560Company, and Trillions Petrochemical Co-Limited.
01:40:06.940AminExchange maintains a widespread network of front companies spanning multiple jurisdictions,
01:42:10.340OK. So Samad Nimati is not only Amin Exchange's current CEO, he's also a former Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps officer, IRGC.
01:42:25.040So, guys, remember when we say that the IRGC is involved in everything, this is what we're talking about, right?
01:42:32.380Because the IRGC controls everything when it comes to the Islamic regime and Iran, right?
01:42:43.960Turkey, in Turkey, of course, Turkey-based Iran national Ali Hazrati Chakherlu, who serves on Amin Exchange's board.
01:42:54.060Turkish and Iranian national Mahmoud Ibrahimi, the brother of Yusuf Ibrahimi, also serves as an
01:43:01.260employee of Amin Exchange. Senior shadow banking network officials, including exchange house
01:43:07.920owners and their families, routinely maintain multiple foreign citizenships, often obtained
01:43:14.940from offshore jurisdictions through citizenship by investment schemes. These foreign identity
01:43:21.720documents, which can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, allow such individuals to travel
01:43:27.080freely and establish new companies overseas. They also demonstrate how shadow banking personnel
01:43:34.380personally enrich themselves and live lavishly at the expense of the Iranian people. This is
01:43:42.120so true, and we have been raising awareness about this for quite a long time, right? Think about
01:43:48.580all of the children of the islamic regime that live lavish lives in western countries and western1.00
01:43:56.520societies all of it is based off of the stolen money of the iranian people money that is covered0.86
01:44:04.240in blood ibrahimi and associates partnership company is being designated pursuant to executive
01:44:11.300Order 13902 for operating in the financial sector of the Iranian economy. Yusuf Ibrahimi,
01:44:19.700Samad Nemati, Ali Hazreti Chakerlu, and Mahmoud Ibrahimi are being designated pursuant to
01:44:27.420Executive Order 13902 for being owned or controlled by or having acted or purported to act
01:44:35.080for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly,
01:44:39.240Ebrahimi and Associates Partnership Company.
01:44:42.980OFAC is also designating the following front companies,
01:44:46.940all of whom are involved in Amin exchanges,
01:44:49.800financial activities, and other sanctions, evasions activities
01:44:53.360to include facilitating payments for shipments
01:44:56.920related to Iranian petroleum, petrochemical, metals,
01:45:01.020manufacturing, and automobile industries.0.61
01:45:03.300Guys, so all of these industries are controlled by the Islamic regime. Literally every single industry in Iran is owned, controlled or operated by the Islamic regime. That's because the Islamic regime is a totalitarian dictatorship, right?0.75
01:45:21.100They just basically take everything. And the only people who are successful are those who are part of the regime, part of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, or, you know, friends and family of the IRGC.0.98
01:45:35.980The below entities are being designated pursuant to Executive Order 13902 for operating in the financial sector of the Iranian economy.
01:45:45.540Wow, look at this. China-based company Ningbo Jiari Trading Co., Hong Kong-based Starshine
01:45:55.360Petrochemical, Hong Kong-based Vigorous Trading Limited. Oh, look at this. UAE-based companies.
01:46:02.480UAE-based Ali'in Goods Wholesalers, Bolt Trading, and Materium Group. Look at this. Look at these
01:46:11.060three United Arab Emirates companies that are being sanctioned by the United States because
01:46:18.440they have been helping out the Islamic regime and they have been helping the Islamic Revolutionary
01:46:25.260Guard Corps evade American sanctions and helping to steal the money of the Iranian people to fund
01:46:36.540terrorism. There you go. And then, of course, Hong Kong-based, two more Hong Kong-based0.91
01:46:41.220companies, Best Fortuna and Chang'an Co. And guys, I'm telling you right now, there is literally
01:46:48.920no way that the government of the UAE is not aware of this. The government of the UAE
01:46:56.100knows full well what's going on. They've just decided to, you know, look the other way.
01:47:02.220anyways it continues on um it's pretty long and then so there's a whole list of shadow fleet
01:47:09.760actors so there's you know a ship from barbados uh palau where's palau where's palau that sounds
01:47:19.460like some somewhere in india like in the indonesian ocean ocean where's palau am i right about that

01:47:37.560somewhere like the in that like australia indonesia area and let me pull up on a map
01:47:45.280that's kind of interesting now where is this place huh let's find it on a map
01:47:52.280let's see yeah okay that's what i thought right so i said i was kind of like the indonesia area
01:48:10.020so yeah there's indonesia right there and then this little red dot is palau so wow there you go
01:48:19.100look at that this tiny little ship that's you know close to like the it's like in the end
01:48:25.140that's what i thought like it was like in the indonesia area ish place so okay so that's one
01:48:30.580of the ships that has been um been sanctioned wait where's the rest of the article here we go
01:48:41.700All right. Let's continue. So yeah. Oceania. Oceania. Okay. So there's Palau. Where are we?
01:48:52.820And then Panama, Hong Kong, Panama, Panama, San Marino, Cameroon, Comoros, Gabon, Palau, Panama,
01:49:04.960Panama, Vanuatu, Cameroon, the Cook Islands, Panama, Sierra Leone, and Hong Kong. There you go.
01:49:17.420the following persons are being designated pursuant to executive order 13902 for operating
01:49:25.460in the petroleum in the petroleum or petrochemical sectors of the iranian economy and then there's
01:49:32.300you know a whole bunch of businesses here sanctions implications all property and
01:49:37.660interests in property of the persons described above that are in the united states or in the
01:49:42.820possession or control of US persons are blocked and must be reported to the OFAC. In addition,
01:49:50.560any entities that are owned directly or indirectly, individually, or in the aggregate, 50% or more
01:49:57.960by one or more blocked persons are also blocked. Unless authorized by OFAC or exempt, OFAC's
01:50:07.440regulations generally prohibit all transactions by U.S. persons or within or transiting the United
01:50:14.660States that involve any property or interests in property of blocked persons. Then basically talks
01:50:21.480about what happens if you violate that. So there's a little update on the Treasury side of things.
01:50:31.040Now, guys, I actually want to share a piece of news with you that I find absolutely unbelievable.
01:50:44.300And I would think that as an American, like if I was American, I would also be very, very angry at this news.
01:50:58.780So it has come to my attention that FIFA has actually banned the Lion and Sun flag from World Cup stadiums.
01:51:12.780So, FIFA is being held in the United States this year.
01:51:19.620And FIFA has just unilaterally decided that they're going to ban Iranians from waving the Lion and Sun flag at the World Cup stadiums.
01:51:35.080And this is a decision that they're making in the United States.
01:51:41.360And I find this absolutely unbelievable because this is actually a big, big deal.
01:51:53.540And if we go to actually let me like like during during, you know, the last time FIFA was held, it was in Qatar.0.78
01:52:06.880and Iranians went with the Lion and Sun flag to Qatar. Even though Qatar is a terrorist state0.85
01:52:20.240and they're aligned with the Islamic regime, Iranians still took the Lion and Sun flag0.68
01:52:30.300to FIFA stadiums in Qatar. However, now, apparently, FIFA has made the decision that at
01:52:41.660their World Cup games in the United States, they're banning the pre-revolutionary Iran flag,
01:52:53.120but the the Palestinian flag is allowed so FIFA is literally supporting Islamic terrorism
01:53:02.360right so this this news just came out World Cup fans are banned from bringing bringing in
01:53:09.600pre-revolutionary Iran flags and apparel to stadiums this summer while the controversial0.82
01:53:15.580Palestinian flag will be allowed so so the jihadis with like a made-up country like they don't even0.74
01:53:21.880have a country, right? It's just a bunch of like savage jihadis. They can bring their like fake0.97
01:53:26.980Durka flag with them. But the Lion and Sun flag, which is the real flag of Iran, this is actually
01:53:34.200banned. FIFA has ruled items with the symbolism will not be permitted at this year's iteration
01:53:41.880of the globe's most famous soccer tournament. The Athletic reported on Tuesday. FIFA says the flag
01:53:50.160violates their code of conduct, which states banners, flags, flyers, apparel, and other
01:53:57.180paraphernalia that are of a political offensive and or discriminatory nature will not be allowed
01:54:04.620at event venues. Wow. I mean, I guess FIFA is afraid of, I don't know, offending terrorists
01:54:11.740or something. I don't know. Right. So there you go. By the way, these are Iranians, you know,
01:54:17.980like whenever there's a football match, I believe this was Qatar four years ago. So Iranians, you0.51
01:54:24.660know, always take lion and sun flags because that is our flag. But FIFA apparently is, you know,
01:54:32.400taking the side of Islamic terrorists. And I cannot believe that they're making this decision0.96
01:54:42.180in the United States, right? United States is supposed to be a free country. And yet FIFA
01:54:47.400thinks that they can dictate to Americans and, you know, American citizens, what they can and
01:54:55.480can't do. So apparently, the flag of Palestine, which is like the fake made up flag of like a
01:55:01.540fake made up country, that's not a political symbol, that's allowed. But the lion and son
01:55:08.020flag of Iran, that apparently is offensive, right? It's offensive to the jihadis and terrorists. So0.54
01:55:15.480there you go. The Palestinian flag is an officially approved flag of a member association
01:55:22.180of FIFA. Amal Kharsaz, an Iranian living in LA who describes herself as Iranian-American advocate
01:55:30.320for freedom in Iran, told the California Post on Tuesday that she's not expecting FIFA's ban to
01:55:36.800change much. She says she believes the Iranian soccer team is basically representing the IRGC,
01:55:43.960which it is. Armin and I spoke about this in a previous live stream. And yeah, like the men's
01:55:51.040soccer team is pretty much supporting the Islamic regime. And the men's soccer team does not
01:55:59.740represent the people. And she's anticipating Iranians to show up to matches with the1.00
01:56:05.020pre-revolutionary flags en masse. I'm sure it's going to make everyone so angry that I'll bet1.00
01:56:12.260you anything there's going to be a huge protest probably guys i'm livid right now like i'm so
01:56:17.460angry right now that i want to find out when these matches are happening and i want to be there and i
01:56:23.380want to go with like my line and sun flag and just walk around and wave it right like why the heck is
01:56:30.580fifa trying to silence iranians when we're literally being murdered every single day like
01:56:35.540shame on FIFA. The Iranians will do anything in their power to basically come to the protest and0.94
01:56:42.440tell the world that they are not our team. Iran and U.S. policy expert Kanim Sajadpur of the0.87
01:56:49.440Carnegie Endowment for International Peace echoed Karsos' opinion during an interview with The
01:56:54.940Atlantic. Trying to prohibit Iranians in L.A. from bringing the Lion and Sun flag into the stadium
01:57:00.860is like trying to prevent Americans from bringing the U.S. flag into an American stadium.0.66
01:57:06.960It would cause mass unrest. Pre-revolutionary Iran imagery contains a lion holding a sword
01:57:13.800and a son over a green, white, and red striped background. In 1980, following the Islamic0.98
01:57:20.720Revolution, the country adopted a new national image which features an Islamic emblem over the
01:57:26.660same green, white, and red bars. FIFA has banned the old Iranian imagery before. At the 2022 World
01:57:34.760Cup in Qatar, fans bearing attire with a lion and sun on it were turned away, according to The
01:57:41.360Athletic. However, they still snuck in. Look at this guy. These are the freaking jihadis. These
01:57:49.040are like the Durka jihadi Islamic terrorists, right? The outlet states the pre-revolutionary
01:57:55.420imagery is often displayed at public events by those in the Iranian diaspora as a symbol of
01:58:01.240identity and protest. The World Cup kicks off next month in Canada, Mexico, and the U.S. Iran will
01:58:07.420open its group stage slate of games against New Zealand on June 15 at the SoFi Stadium in L.A.
01:58:15.560So there you go. In, you know, the latest news, the latest news about, you know, who else,
01:58:22.560Who else in the world is against Iranians? FIFA, right? It's not enough that we have the Islamic
01:58:28.780regime murdering us. It's not enough that the United Nations hates us. It's not enough that0.98
01:58:33.740the Democrats and the jihadis and the Palestinians and the woke left and the communists and the
01:58:40.460Marxists and the Antifas, it's not enough that they're all against us. Now, FIFA. FIFA is now
01:58:46.360also against Iranian freedom. FIFA is also trying to silence Iranian voices who are speaking out
01:58:53.700against the Islamic regime, right? So there you go. There you go. You know what? I never expected
01:59:00.440to put FIFA on the list of organizations that support Islamic terrorism and organizations that,1.00
01:59:09.220um, you know, uh, support the, uh, brutal oppression, murder, rape, and torture of the0.90
01:59:16.620Iranian people. But there we go. There we are. So that's FIFA for you. All right. I'm going to go1.00
01:59:24.660to the rest of the super chats and then I'm going to call it a night. Um, but I will, uh, but stay
01:59:34.260tuned because my video will be published as soon as my live stream is done. And that video is going
01:59:42.220to go into a little bit more in depth on why I think the Islamic regime is falling. And again,
01:59:51.260here is the thumbnail for my upcoming video. So the first super chat I have here is from
02:00:01.140I see Licious go mega move to Alberta they will be a state soon yeah I'm not getting involved in
02:00:09.580the whole Canadian separatism issue whatsoever but yeah Alberta is a great state and I love
02:00:16.420Albertans I mean I love all Canadians I don't really think the issue is with Canadians necessarily
02:00:21.260it's just with the Canadian government and you know like of course some of the people who vote
02:00:24.260for them but yeah there we we have some serious issues in Canada when it comes to like the woke
02:00:28.740left. Next, we have Taufei. Move to Alberta. When they join us down here, you will automatically
02:00:36.700become a US citizen. Problem solved. Okay, guys. All right. If I get the sense that Alberta is0.61
02:00:42.720going to become the next American state, I'll move to Alberta. How about that? I'll make that
02:00:47.700promise. Then, you know, easy peasy. I can become an American citizen that way. Great suggestion.
02:00:53.440saber coaching hi goldie many petition set up kardam rajabit fifa messaged you the link on x

02:01:13.420like messages and dms i actually guys i don't check like my dms on insta or x or anything like
02:01:20.360that because I'm just constantly bombarded and it becomes way too overwhelming. And I just like,
02:01:25.740if I was going to check my DMS all day, I would never be able to do anything else.
02:01:30.000Um, but saber coaching, um, if you can, um, if you could add the link to the FIFA petition,
02:01:36.620um, as a comment under my live stream on X, because I am live streaming this, um, this show
02:01:45.640right now on X. So you should go, you can go find it there. Add the link as a comment
02:01:52.040under my live stream on X. And then I'll take a look at that. And I'm more than happy to share
02:01:59.420that. Thank you so much. Next, we have a comment from Omid. Warning to all those living abroad,
02:02:08.680propagating regime narratives like Ozada Yazdi, daughter of IRGC founder, you will be caught
02:02:14.880from the funding trail. I agree. There are a lot of children of Islamic regime officials who0.87
02:02:23.180live outside of Iran. They live in the United States and elsewhere. And they basically just
02:02:30.180promote and propagate Islamic regime propaganda, because that's where their money comes from.0.54
02:02:34.880That's where their money comes from. Wiley Coyote, China's, she talked, talked tough on Taiwan
02:02:44.600because he has to, just like the IRGC has to talk tough. They know that failure equals death. I
02:02:51.720absolutely agree with that. And if you go back and you watch my video about President Trump's
02:02:58.660trip to China, I actually do speak about Taiwan. And I make it very clear that one of the reasons
02:03:03.940that President Trump took Marco Rubio with him was because of the fact that Marco Rubio
02:03:10.700takes a very, very strong stance against China when it comes to Taiwan. And Marco Rubio
02:03:20.040is very much in favor of keeping Taiwan free from China. So that's one of the other reasons
02:03:26.880that President Trump took Marco Rubio with him to China. But yes, I agree with you
02:03:31.980um, on that point, a hundred percent. Um, Melissa joy cat lady, how can they do that? This is
02:03:38.620America. I agree. How can they do that? This is America. So they're basically going to argue0.71
02:03:44.560that attending. So, so like the, the, the legal, the legal case that they're going to be making,
02:03:50.680you know, again, former lawyer. So, uh, this is not legal advice. It's just legal information.
02:03:56.180I have to put a disclaimer out there, because I'm not practicing right now. But the legal argument
02:04:01.960that FIFA is going to make is that this is a private event. It's not a public space, right?
02:04:08.980The stadium is not openly accessible to the public. Because it's not openly accessible to
02:04:16.120the public, it's a private space, it's a private event, it's a private venue. Therefore, they're
02:04:21.480entitled, uh, to, um, put out, you know, make whatever rules they want to, because it is a
02:04:27.600private event and that that's their right. So, um, hopefully we can raise enough awareness and
02:04:36.420raise enough noise about this to maybe hopefully get the attention of president Trump and his
02:04:41.360administration. And hopefully president Trump can speak out and say some things. So I actually plan
02:04:47.360on making a video about the whole FIFA fiasco tomorrow as well. And yeah, we need to, we need
02:04:54.480to raise awareness. We need to raise some noise because I think this is, this is horrible. This
02:04:58.940is horrible because the hypocrisy and the double standard is real. And it is very, very unfortunate
02:05:06.980that FIFA is choosing to side with a brutal totalitarian Islamic dictatorship and it's0.72
02:05:14.020choosing to side with Islamic terrorism over freedom. So there you go. Yeah, it's a tough0.77
02:05:23.060world. It's a tough world for us Iranians. We've been fighting this sort of nonsense and propaganda
02:05:29.720for 47 years, and it seems never-ending. But I know that we're close to the finish line,
02:05:37.680and I do believe that we're at the beginning of the end. So yeah, guys, thank you so much,
02:05:43.840everyone for tuning in. I hope that you enjoyed tonight's live stream. And I will see you guys
02:05:52.700tomorrow for Iran Revolution Live. And if I decide, guys, I promise you, I will not watch
02:05:59.680the Senate committee hearing. This one here. Let me pull it up.
02:06:06.460I will not watch this without you. So, um, I might actually watch this
02:06:14.940probably not tomorrow morning, but I, I might make it separate live stream and do like a live
02:06:23.540stream watch party, um, after Iran revolution live tomorrow, because I really, really do want
02:06:29.180to watch this. It is three hours long, but I think it's totally going to be worth it.
02:06:34.180and I'm probably going to have a lot to say on this.
02:09:45.700One stands firm, one bends to the game
02:09:49.880History writes down the choice and the name, stand with strength, don't let it all go, you don't free millions by moving too slow, Mr. Trump.
02:10:07.660If you give them that deal, they keep the power, they tighten the seal
02:10:11.940More voices silenced, more lives erased
