00:00:00.000 And it's not the better track to be this is because of crossing like years.
00:00:04.000 This is Picard of John Ruk Picarda.
00:00:07.000 This is Picard crossing like years.
00:00:09.000 Energized by rock or crossing like years.
00:00:11.000 This is Picard of Crossing like years.
00:00:14.000 This is Picard of Jong Ruk Picarda.
00:00:16.000 This is Picard of Crossing Light years.
00:00:20.000 Have you seen anything like that before?
00:00:38.000 Child.
00:00:56.000 It's a cold child.
00:01:46.000 It's just a moon.
00:01:49.000 It's just whether you won't let me marry your facile.
00:01:55.000 You're funny.
00:01:56.000 The background.
00:02:13.000 You're funny.
00:02:14.000 Thank you.
00:02:50.000 I'm butter.
00:02:52.000 Hey, glad
00:03:24.000 to be with you.
00:03:25.000 I'm back.
00:03:25.000 Welcome to the lineup live on Rumble.
00:03:27.000 You don't need to change that dial.
00:03:28.000 I know I sound like I have SARS, like I'm in a Toronto airport in the early 2000s.
00:03:33.000 I was at an ICE ride along yesterday.
00:03:35.000 You're going to see that probably next week.
00:03:38.000 Maybe this week we actually apprehended some, well, MS-13 gang members, child, what do we have to say, corn if it's this is on YouTube, cornographers.
00:03:49.000 The worst of the worst.
00:03:50.000 And the story you guys have heard about ICE is definitely also experienced my first flashbangs.
00:03:55.000 Two.
00:03:56.000 Apparently there's no quality control with flashbangs because they were the exact same type of flashbang.
00:04:00.000 But toolman, one was like eight times louder than the other where we thought it was return fire.
00:04:04.000 So you'll see my GoPro go, oh, geez.
00:04:06.000 Anyway, look, I picked a hell of a time to be out of this chair because Iran, oh my word.
00:04:15.000 That doesn't seem like the right phrase for Iran.
00:04:17.000 Oh my word, Iran.
00:04:19.000 Look, guys, I want to, we're going to go through this today.
00:04:23.000 We're going to do some claim truths.
00:04:25.000 We're going to go through some propaganda that is being obviously perpetuated out there by Iran.
00:04:30.000 Of course, you get some from Israel as well.
00:04:32.000 Some really bad misstatements from this administration.
00:04:34.000 And I hear the criticisms out there.
00:04:37.000 I hear them, and I don't think they're ill-founded.
00:04:39.000 I really don't.
00:04:41.000 But I do think that some opinions right now are misguided because of misinformation.
00:04:46.000 And there's a lot of misinformation on both sides.
00:04:49.000 And this should be one of those issues, in my opinion, where we can have a difference of opinion and it not be as fragmenting as it is.
00:05:00.000 When people say, can we go back to a time where we could civilly discuss things?
00:05:04.000 Okay.
00:05:06.000 Military intervention of a crazy Islamic death cult regime and how to deal with them would be one of those.
00:05:14.000 Like your mind can be changed on some of these issues because militarily, right, it's largely a strategic decision.
00:05:19.000 My mind's not going to be changed on abortion.
00:05:21.000 My mind's not going to be changed on transitioning kids.
00:05:22.000 My mind's not going to be changed on the Second Amendment.
00:05:24.000 But there is information that we can't know as it relates to national security where sometimes you go, oh, all right, that seems like an opportune time.
00:05:32.000 That seems strategically like it could save us money or save lives in the long run.
00:05:36.000 And you may think that it doesn't.
00:05:38.000 But to throw out this entire administration, which I see some people doing, look, it doesn't make you a cheerleader to say, do you understand that we could be facing, we were, and we could be right there again, a demographic shift in this country where it ceases to exist?
00:05:54.000 Is this the hill that people want to die on with a purity test on who is MAGA?
00:06:00.000 Who is America first?
00:06:02.000 Because Iran is so harmless?
00:06:06.000 Or because the Jews are so underhanded that we couldn't all have some shared interests here and disagree about strategy?
00:06:14.000 So it's going to be a little bit of a roundtable with you.
00:06:16.000 A lot of chats today.
00:06:17.000 I think this needs to be discussed.
00:06:18.000 We're also going to talk about the Supreme Court ruling on, hey, trans and kids in California.
00:06:22.000 I don't know if you know, but they're not supposed to do that.
00:06:24.000 Supposed to let the parents know.
00:06:25.000 And for her troubles, one lady was told that she would be hunted down and killed by trans activists.
00:06:30.000 talk about that and more on with the show.
00:06:43.000 You go fix it or just let my hard-earned money flush right down the train.
00:06:47.000 Damn it, Josephine.
00:06:48.000 I'm watching the most relevant news of the day in a concise but digestible form.
00:06:55.000 It's the Rumble Premium Bonus segment.
00:06:57.000 I pay $99 annually for this, and I will not let you ruin it.
00:07:03.000 You know I'm on a fixed income.
00:07:05.000 Hard-earned, might I add, Josephine.
00:07:07.000 The only thing hard-earned this house, Colton, is my patience with you.
00:07:11.000 You run up the water, Bill, Colton.
00:07:12.000 Damn it, all you'd better talk to you like that.
00:07:14.000 Well, to the untrained eye, that would appear what is going on.
00:07:18.000 But like a well-trained cobra, I'm waiting for my time to pounce.
00:07:23.000 Here go patience.
00:07:25.000 You clearly do not understand the simple principle of fluid dynamics, Josephine.
00:07:31.000 It is either the product or the end user, and that toilet is a stellar product, which is why I'm inclined to believe that you, Josephine, are at fault.
00:07:44.000 That toilet can take a punch, but what you do in there is illegal in 47 states.
00:07:50.000 Colton, you know, I have a condition.
00:07:52.000 Did you even get that bar from Home Depot I asked for?
00:07:56.000 I stopped at the Home Depot, yes.
00:07:59.000 They didn't have the American-made flange in question, and you know, I will not support the Chinese communist supply chain.
00:08:06.000 And I didn't know Fat and Ugly was recognizing an official condition.
00:08:10.000 At least I made a fing effort, Josephine.
00:08:13.000 You made an effort to go to the hardware store parking lot to smoke a pack of cigarettes.
00:08:18.000 Your efforts are myth, like your veteran status.
00:08:21.000 Dog, she's going after your military service record now.
00:08:24.000 You gotta pounce on that hoe.
00:08:25.000 I'm building to it.
00:08:26.000 Damn it, woman.
00:08:27.000 What?
00:08:28.000 You know I'm flat-footed.
00:08:29.000 That's why I have planar fasciitis.
00:08:31.000 It's a disability.
00:08:33.000 It says so right on the check I get in the mail.
00:08:38.000 You got that check from the mailbox, Colton.
00:08:40.000 Walk into it's your only job.
00:08:43.000 Go fix the toilet, Colton.
00:08:45.000 Pop your ass down, woman.
00:08:46.000 How about that?
00:08:47.000 You're ruining the show for me and our guest, okay?
00:08:47.000 You're ruining.
00:08:50.000 I'm sorry about that, D-Day.
00:08:51.000 Pop down.
00:08:52.000 I'm thyme your ass, but you probably like it.
00:08:55.000 You and your home old friend.
00:08:57.000 Yo, what did I do?
00:08:59.000 That's crossing a fucking line, woman.
00:09:02.000 My friend's preferred type of friction is none of your business.
00:09:06.000 I'm fishing to teach you a lesson by popping you upside the head.
00:09:10.000 How about that?
00:09:11.000 Dog.
00:09:13.000 I'm not gay.
00:09:14.000 I know, but I was just making her think about what she said.
00:09:18.000 Come here, come here.
00:09:20.000 Come here, Josephine.
00:09:22.000 Cole, what's that bell for?
00:09:23.000 Come here.
00:09:23.000 I got a buyer.
00:09:24.000 I'm down.
00:09:25.000 I'm cold just like I was when I just saw romantic.
00:09:29.000 Just take my hand.

00:10:29.000 Glad to be with you and not in the back of an ice car.
00:10:32.000 Yeah.
00:10:33.000 Yeah, that was a long race.
00:10:35.000 Yeah.
00:10:35.000 In the back of an ice car.
00:10:36.000 Almost get deported.
00:10:37.000 The other day they kept getting moved up.
00:10:38.000 Like, oh, you know, we're going to grab you at five.
00:10:40.000 Okay, all right, 4:30.
00:10:42.000 And then it's 3:45.
00:10:42.000 All right.
00:10:42.000 Okay, four.
00:10:44.000 I said, no.
00:10:45.000 No, we're not.
00:10:46.000 We're not.
00:10:46.000 And this wasn't ice, by the way.
00:10:48.000 We could have been there at 5.
00:10:49.000 Now, let me ask you, what is the most important thing that the Trump administration needs to communicate with Iran?
00:11:00.000 That's a real question.
00:11:01.000 And do you believe that we are at war with Iran?
00:11:04.000 If you do, why?
00:11:06.000 What is your opinion on this situation?
00:11:07.000 And does it make you view MAGA, America First, differently?
00:11:11.000 Because I'll tell you what, there are reasons for there to be sort of an internal civil war, if you will, within the conservative movement.
00:11:19.000 I've seen it in the past.
00:11:19.000 I saw it with the Tea Party.
00:11:21.000 I don't think that this is one of them, even though I think that disagreements over the approach are perfectly appropriate.
00:11:28.000 And that's not fence setting.
00:11:29.000 That is, look, as it relates to, there's information that is incomplete for you and for me as the public, and rightfully so.
00:11:37.000 You want this guy, you want president to have to go to Congress?
00:11:42.000 You think Rashida Tlaib's not going to blab her terrorist mouth all across town?
00:11:45.000 All right, we'll talk about that more.
00:11:47.000 Captain Morgan C. How are you?
00:11:48.000 I'm well.
00:11:49.000 I am doing Very full day.
00:11:49.000 How are you?
00:11:52.000 Had a very full day, very full travel schedule, and also full travel schedule.
00:11:56.000 This man, who actually, of course, has served and his insight is valuable here.
00:12:00.000 He's going to be Friday, Saturday, March 20th, 21st at Summit City Comedy Club, Fort Wayne, Indiana.
00:12:05.000 Not underscore Firesteader X Josh Firestein.
00:12:07.000 Hello.
00:12:07.000 I may or may not be doing a ride along in Fort Wayne as well.
00:12:10.000 Ooh.
00:12:11.000 With an Uber driver.
00:12:12.000 Yes.
00:12:12.000 I was going to say.
00:12:13.000 Yes.
00:12:13.000 That's pretty boring.
00:12:14.000 I've got to keep it safe.
00:12:15.000 Yeah.
00:12:16.000 But it will not run in anywhere.
00:12:17.000 It will smell like Indian food.
00:12:21.000 Yeah.
00:12:21.000 It'll smell like someone ice is coming for.
00:12:23.000 Yes, it will.
00:12:24.000 Which is nice.
00:12:25.000 All right.
00:12:26.000 Palette cleanse.
00:12:27.000 Spring break is coming fast.
00:12:30.000 I don't know what you're thinking.
00:12:31.000 Breasts?
00:12:32.000 Stop now.
00:12:33.000 Nice.
00:12:34.000 Throw us.
00:12:35.000 Come on.
00:12:35.000 No, I won't.
00:12:36.000 I'm not a boob guy.
00:12:37.000 But, you know, this is not the only place that celebrates spring break, the United States.
00:12:42.000 They do in someone argue, I would state, the worst country in the world, India.
00:12:47.000 Just look at this water park.
00:12:53.000 That looks all right.
00:12:55.000 Snor...
00:12:56.000 Oh, okay, well...
00:12:57.000 into no pool, yeah, just, oh, it hurts.
00:13:03.000 See how the slide's shaking?
00:13:06.000 My coxus, my coxus.
00:13:10.000 No, don't build supports.
00:13:11.000 Just hire guys to do it.
00:13:13.000 It's your tailbone, by the way.
00:13:15.000 I do.
00:13:16.000 Also, by the way, guests get a free T-shirt offer.
00:13:26.000 It doesn't hurt at all.
00:13:33.000 That part looks good.
00:13:36.000 No.
00:13:42.000 I love how he's slowing himself down with the rails because he knows it's going to fracture his tailbone.
00:13:47.000 And rather than fix the tailbone fracturing problem of the water park, they're like, just slow yourself down on this slide.
00:13:54.000 It won't hurt.
00:13:54.000 Don't be a baby.
00:13:56.000 You don't even have to fix it.
00:13:57.000 There's already a hole in the ground where the water would fill up if you let it.
00:14:00.000 Yes, there's already a hole in the ground.
00:14:02.000 It's called India.
00:14:05.000 And by the way, here's the t-shirt in question you get for free.
00:14:08.000 Yeah, very.
00:14:09.000 Oh, come on now.
00:14:13.000 A fun fact for India, because all cultures are equal.
00:14:16.000 Groundwater in that area has high levels of iron, arsenic, and human poop.
00:14:43.000 I love that they had one pool that had water in it.
00:14:45.000 It makes me think: like, why the rest of it not having water?
00:14:49.000 Means someone made a decision.
00:14:50.000 Like, no, only the one needs water.
00:14:53.000 Our budget only calls for one.
00:14:54.000 It's only one.
00:14:55.000 It's a water park, but we can't have water everywhere.
00:14:58.000 Too much food.
00:14:59.000 And it would be the whole place.
00:15:01.000 What's next?
00:15:02.000 Rollercoaster is going to have the full track?
00:15:04.000 No, By the way, the rivers near that park are also incredibly polluted from sewage, just to be clear.
00:15:11.000 Near the park.
00:15:12.000 Yeah, where people also bathe.
00:15:14.000 All cultures are equal.
00:15:15.000 We need to stop every last Indian migrant. here in this country.
00:15:21.000 I would like people to be there with tennis rackets, just swatting them out.
00:15:24.000 That's a big racket.
00:15:25.000 Yeah.
00:15:26.000 Well, not that big.
00:15:27.000 We prefer bad mitten.
00:15:29.000 Oh, whatever.
00:15:30.000 And that's what you're saying in this accent.
00:15:32.000 Yes, we like to hit the shuttlecock.
00:15:35.000 That's what it's called.
00:15:36.000 But we call it the birdie.
00:15:39.000 All right.
00:15:40.000 Before we get to Iran, because I know Iran's going to be heavy, rightfully.
00:15:43.000 Now, you know what?
00:15:44.000 We'll make it fun.
00:15:46.000 Talk about transit kids.
00:15:47.000 Yeah, sure.
00:15:48.000 Yeah, here's one that's more fun.
00:15:49.000 Hey, so in California, you know, they would help kids trans and not tell the parents, which, you know, to me is an act of evil.
00:15:58.000 Yeah.
00:15:58.000 You comment below if you.
00:15:59.000 That's me, the extremist.
00:16:00.000 Well, yesterday, the Supreme Court actually said that California schools can't help conceal students who are trying to transition and identify with some made-up new gender.
00:16:10.000 The parents have a right to know.
00:16:12.000 The U.S. Supreme Court just cleared the way for California schools to tell parents if their children identify as transgender without getting the students' approval.
00:16:21.000 The process is known as parental notification.
00:16:24.000 For now, the high court's discussion is a state law that bans automatic parental notification requirements if students change their pronouns or gender expression at school.
00:16:33.000 Religious parents and educators challenge the law, but the state argued that students have the right to privacy about their gender expression, especially if they fear rejection from their families.
00:16:44.000 The high court sided with the parents and reinstated a lower court order while this case continues to play out.
00:16:50.000 And think about that for a second.
00:16:51.000 They have the right to privacy.
00:16:53.000 Children in even high school, they don't have the right to privacy if they are administered in aspirin, but they can transition.
00:17:01.000 This is how when people say, oh, you know, the party's gone far right, far left.
00:17:05.000 No, no, this whole country has gone illogically left, and the Democrat Party has gone radically Marxist left.
00:17:13.000 You can see with the 6-3 decision, they affirmed basic parental rights.
00:17:16.000 You know, the same kind of rights that you have as far as what your kids eat, the power of association, after-school activities, right?
00:17:23.000 Medication, all of that.
00:17:25.000 You have the same rights.
00:17:28.000 By the way, a lot of their sexual activity.
00:17:31.000 I know this kid's under this age, they can't consent to sex, but apparently they can consent to hormone therapy or gender transition that would forever ruin their potential sex life.
00:17:41.000 So the Supreme Court ruled, hey, you have basic rights as a parent.
00:17:43.000 You know the ones that you've always had?
00:17:45.000 Dissenting judges Kagan, Sotomayor, and Jackson.
00:17:45.000 Yeah.
00:17:49.000 Surprise!
00:17:51.000 Here's the problem.
00:17:51.000 Surprise!
00:17:52.000 Before it got to the Supreme Court, parents weren't in on this.
00:17:55.000 They were having their children's activities concealed from them systemically since 2014.
00:18:02.000 That's the entire length of my daughter's life.
00:18:04.000 Think about that.
00:18:05.000 It did.
00:18:06.000 That's disturbing.
00:18:08.000 And just to give you an idea, too, they say, oh, teachers argue.
00:18:11.000 First off, if teachers argue it, I'm usually against it.
00:18:14.000 That's my general disorder.
00:18:15.000 It's like, oh, sorry.
00:18:17.000 The real heroes, nurses and teachers, I remember what you guys did.
00:18:20.000 You're wrong.
00:18:21.000 I don't even need to do a fact check.
00:18:22.000 I just know that you are saying it.
00:18:24.000 And I'll show you this next clip.
00:18:26.000 These are the kinds of teachers, those in higher education, those in public education, who are teaching your children about modern gender theory.
00:18:34.000 One lady, Madeline Mann, she is at UC San Francisco.
00:18:38.000 She's the associate director for clinical and translational science, workforce development, and consultation services.
00:18:44.000 Here is her being confronted by somebody who doesn't believe that children should be genitally mutilated or chemically castrated.
00:18:52.000 This lady, who works in higher education, being confronted and threatening to find, to hunt down and kill a mom with an opposing opinion.
00:19:07.000 It's not hatred to tell a child.
00:19:09.000 So this lady's being facetious and she's confronting an actual transaction for children.
00:19:16.000 I've been coming on stage for this over $100 token and the surgeon makes $25,000.
00:19:23.000 I was approved for a phalloplasty with two appointments in Brazil.
00:19:28.000 My doctor told me I could have a fake penis that would allow me to either pee standing up or to have penetrated sex but not moat.
00:19:36.000 Both.
00:19:36.000 What?
00:19:37.000 Do you think your transgender child might one day have cop surgery and a phalloplasty?
00:19:42.000 Is that something you would allow them to have?
00:19:45.000 You know, they make a phalloplasty out of the skin tissue on your thigh and your forearm.
00:19:51.000 It's like a straight-house.
00:19:52.000 This lady right now is the one who believes in trans and kids.
00:19:55.000 Here she goes.
00:19:57.000 I'm going to put you down and shoot.
00:20:01.000 Wait, you can't say that.
00:20:02.000 You can't tell somebody you're going to kill them.
00:20:04.000 Pushed her head, too.
00:20:05.000 You can't say that to somebody.
00:20:08.000 Those are the people.
00:20:09.000 Those are the people who grace the halls of academia and public education.
00:20:14.000 I'm going to hunt you down and kill you.
00:20:15.000 She's like the Liam Neeson of trans activists.
00:20:18.000 I've got full-blown aids.
00:20:19.000 Correct.
00:20:23.000 I don't know what you are.
00:20:25.000 I don't know what your gender is, but I have a particular set of perversions.
00:20:32.000 Have you ever seen a phalloplasty?
00:20:34.000 I will give you hormones.
00:20:36.000 It's not bigger than mine.
00:20:38.000 I will find you.
00:20:39.000 I will give you a phalloplasty.
00:20:40.000 Yes.
00:20:41.000 And then I will look at it and take pride in my work and do a pitch-perfect American accent.
00:20:46.000 I'm from Poughkeepsie.
00:20:48.000 You sound the same, sir.
00:20:50.000 Well, I'm a method actor.
00:20:52.000 My method is acting Irish all the time.
00:20:56.000 Think about it.
00:20:57.000 That lady is willing to hunt down, hunt down a concerned parent and kill her.
00:21:01.000 The hill she's willing to die on is transitioning your kids, encouraging your kids to transition, and hiding it from you as a parent.
00:21:10.000 We want to say that, ah, we've made no progress.
00:21:13.000 We live in a country where two genders are officially recognized right now.
00:21:16.000 You realize that's a change.
00:21:17.000 And I get it.
00:21:18.000 You say that can be undone because it's an executive order.
00:21:20.000 But at least we have a direction.
00:21:22.000 At least we have an executive order.
00:21:24.000 Do you know what this would look like, this country, with Kamala Harris as president or Gavin Newsom?
00:21:31.000 Do you guys understand the levels of depravity and evil that you are facing?
00:21:36.000 Hey, I don't think that you should transition children, and I think that parents have a right to know.
00:21:41.000 I will murder you.
00:21:42.000 That's the interaction you just saw.
00:21:46.000 How much do you want to bet that pre-social media, that administrator would face no repercussions whatsoever for doing that?
00:21:55.000 Anyone want to place bets?
00:21:56.000 Comment below.
00:21:57.000 I bet that that's not the first time she's reacted that way.
00:22:00.000 No.
00:22:01.000 No, I would bet.
00:22:02.000 No, unless it is the first time that someone's actually made her have to reconcile with her decisions.
00:22:08.000 She has a trans kid.
00:22:09.000 That person was literally asking her, would you do this?
00:22:12.000 Would you let them have this?
00:22:13.000 Would you make them live this life?
00:22:14.000 And that's what set her off.
00:22:15.000 Right.
00:22:16.000 The fact that she had to come to terms with her own actions.
00:22:20.000 Isn't it also funny how these hippies, these patchouli wearing tree huggers?
00:22:24.000 They're San Francisco retrades.
00:22:24.000 Not so they are.
00:22:25.000 This person is actually San Francisco.
00:22:27.000 Ah, big pharma, man.
00:22:29.000 And when someone can, over two Zoom calls, be approved for a fake penis, let's call it what it is.
00:22:29.000 It's all a scam.
00:22:36.000 $100 copay surgeon makes $25,000 for a cosmetic procedure, a perverted, evil, straight from the depths of hell procedure.
00:22:44.000 Where did all the criticism for Big Pharma go?
00:22:46.000 You think everyone's doing this out of the goodness of their heart?
00:22:48.000 Just ignore the $25,000.
00:22:50.000 Just ignore the $50,000 here, $130,000 depending on the procedure.
00:22:54.000 Why aren't we critical across the...
00:22:55.000 It's almost like we're back in vaccine land.
00:22:58.000 Someone calls Stephen Colbert.
00:22:59.000 I don't know how to make sense of it.
00:23:00.000 The technology, guys, why are we making the decision between peeing, standing up, or having sex?
00:23:00.000 I know.
00:23:05.000 Is that even a question?
00:23:06.000 Like, you just pick the sex part, right?
00:23:08.000 No, that's a good point.
00:23:09.000 I would imagine.
00:23:10.000 You just pick sex.
00:23:10.000 Yeah, I would imagine.
00:23:12.000 I would imagine it's the novelty aspect.
00:23:13.000 Look, ladies, if you think, like, it is journals are kind of cool.
00:23:16.000 I'm not going to, especially when they put ice chips down, we get to melt ice chips.
00:23:19.000 But the novel, once you've done it once or twice, you know, you've seen them all as far as the urnals.
00:23:19.000 Oh, yeah.
00:23:23.000 You definitely want to pick the ability to use a wiener to experience fun wiener things.
00:23:29.000 But yeah, if you only get to do one at a time, she said, yeah, you're not going to be able to.
00:23:32.000 That's your art telling.
00:23:33.000 Whatever, not at a time.
00:23:34.000 This was like a you choose your path story.
00:23:36.000 You'll have to stand up the rest of your life or you can have fun sex the rest of your life.
00:23:40.000 Well, what would you choose, Gerald?
00:23:41.000 Sex, of course.
00:23:42.000 I would choose sitting down.
00:23:43.000 I already sit down to pee.
00:23:44.000 Yeah.
00:23:45.000 Well, then you chose the same thing.
00:23:46.000 It's more effective.
00:23:47.000 And by the way, speaking of all this perversion, this is a wholesome show.
00:23:50.000 We have to address addressing the perversion, addressing the subversion of society doesn't mean that we approve it.
00:23:55.000 Same thing, you know, look out there, I know that some ladies have to dance their way through college.
00:23:59.000 And then you see all these people out there where they do that with the super chats where it's like, hey, could you guys give us a dollar?
00:24:03.000 You know, they're out there.
00:24:04.000 And it's like, let's go to the champagne room.
00:24:05.000 We don't do it, but we treat you that way in a wholesome way.
00:24:08.000 It's time for reverse super chat.

00:24:27.000 Not like, you know, cameo or shout out or anything like that.
00:24:31.000 Why are you talking?
00:24:32.000 We had a commercial about it and it looked a little like that.
00:24:33.000 I just wanted to say that.
00:24:34.000 Did it look a little like that?
00:24:35.000 Remember, Gerald sent us to do a bar mitzvah.
00:24:35.000 I mean, a little.
00:24:37.000 We had to perform for a bunch of Jewish adolescents?
00:24:40.000 Yes, that's right.
00:24:41.000 I forgot about that.
00:24:42.000 Crypto and some other fun stuff.

00:24:53.000 Yeah, hello, mom.
00:24:53.000 You still dancing?
00:24:57.000 All right.
00:24:58.000 Let's get to it.
00:24:59.000 And Applejack, were we able to just give me a yes or no?
00:25:02.000 Were we able to confirm that thing if there was a beep or no?
00:25:04.000 Yes, there was.
00:25:05.000 All right, good.
00:25:05.000 Okay, good.
00:25:06.000 Then I can.
00:25:07.000 It's going to be lingering in the middle.
00:25:08.000 It would, yeah, relax.
00:25:09.000 We cut the Colton Wades expecting the bleep.
00:25:11.000 I was like, was that messing up bleep?
00:25:12.000 Because I would never actually say that unless I knew there was a cover of the bleep.
00:25:15.000 It's true.
00:25:15.000 Like an iron dome.
00:25:16.000 But they completely masked what you said.
00:25:19.000 Speaking of which, look, let's get to Iran.
00:25:24.000 And sometimes there's value in having the perspective of being offline for a little bit because we were in the back of an ice paddy wagon yesterday, Tool Man and I.
00:25:33.000 And we'll kind of share that ride along with you and hopefully do right by those ICE agents because they're doing a bang-up job and they're being vilified for things that they don't do and they're not being very smooth yesterday.
00:25:42.000 Well, we missed some.
00:25:43.000 I can't imagine what Minnesota ride-along would look like.
00:25:47.000 Yeah, very smooth.
00:25:47.000 Yeah.
00:25:48.000 Probably be more interesting for us.
00:25:49.000 It was almost boring.
00:25:49.000 Yeah.
00:25:51.000 These guys are so good at it.
00:25:52.000 Yeah.
00:25:53.000 These child pornographers are so boring.
00:25:55.000 I know, right?
00:25:56.000 Where's your bar?
00:25:57.000 Where's your bar?
00:25:58.000 It's just hard to see.
00:25:58.000 Wait until you see that one.
00:25:59.000 Seeing that pornographer in cuffs was exciting.
00:26:02.000 Yes.
00:26:02.000 Yes, it was.
00:26:03.000 So I like.
00:26:04.000 Did you slap him around a little bit?
00:26:05.000 No, it was a lady.
00:26:06.000 That's too bad.
00:26:07.000 It was a lady.
00:26:07.000 It was ridiculous.
00:26:08.000 It was a mother of her own.
00:26:09.000 It was a mother of her own children.
00:26:11.000 Oh, even more worthy of slapping.
00:26:12.000 I took pictures and videos and distributed them on WhatsApp who was being deported.
00:26:18.000 And we watched her drop off her children at a grade school.
00:26:22.000 Went 30 over?
00:26:22.000 What?
00:26:24.000 Chase her down?
00:26:26.000 And yeah, she will be deported.
00:26:29.000 That would have been a perfect CNN propaganda stream.
00:26:31.000 Mom with children.
00:26:32.000 Mom separated from children by ICE.
00:26:35.000 You know what?
00:26:36.000 You know why I have some high praise for ICE?
00:26:38.000 I'll tell you, if I'm king for a day, that woman is buried where she stands.
00:26:43.000 And they add restraint.
00:26:45.000 Okay.
00:26:45.000 Yep.
00:26:46.000 They actually asked if she had any medical conditions because she was a fat bitch too.
00:26:48.000 So it's like, hey, diabetes, very common.
00:26:50.000 And get her in the back of a car.
00:26:52.000 Let her ask for a lawyer.
00:26:53.000 Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked.
00:26:54.000 But I was seeing obviously the news with Iran.
00:26:58.000 I was glued to the news this weekend and then kind of checked back in.
00:27:03.000 And it was amazing to see some of the narratives shift and to see the infighting.
00:27:08.000 And you guys let me know if you think that this is one of those subjects where I think it's fair for people to have disagreements and it is not a disqualifying factor.
00:27:17.000 What I mean by that is if someone believes in transitioning children, I'm not going to try and find common ground with them on anything because I believe it's evil.
00:27:25.000 If someone believes in stripping you of your Second Amendment rights wholesale, I'm not going to find any common ground with them because I believe that that's evil.
00:27:32.000 I don't believe that someone who thinks we should not intervene at all in Iran, I don't believe that's an evil stance.
00:27:39.000 And I don't believe that someone's saying there is an opportune moment right now, there's a moment in time where we can take out their leadership and mitigate a threat.
00:27:45.000 I don't think that's evil either.
00:27:47.000 I think that's a strategic decision.
00:27:48.000 And we'll go through the finances.
00:27:50.000 We'll go through the objectives and we'll go through the bad communications from this administration as well as the propaganda that you see online.
00:27:56.000 So first, I think it's important to set this context.
00:27:59.000 The objectives for this military operation have been laid out.
00:28:03.000 Okay?
00:28:04.000 And they've been pretty clear.
00:28:05.000 We're tethered to them.
00:28:06.000 Number one, prevent Iran from getting a nuke.
00:28:09.000 Number two, destroy Iran's ballistic missile capabilities.
00:28:12.000 And number three, to cripple Iran's Navy.
00:28:14.000 Already done, by the way.
00:28:15.000 You can check that off the list.
00:28:18.000 And I watched this press conference from Marco Rubio.
00:28:22.000 Full disclosure, I've been on the show a couple times.
00:28:24.000 I watched the whole conference.
00:28:26.000 I thought that was really, really well handled.
00:28:28.000 Then I saw that the White House communications team decided to cut out the clip or a clip that would present it as out of context as possible.
00:28:38.000 Huge misstep.
00:28:39.000 And that is what everyone is discussing.
00:28:41.000 So I want to show you that clip.
00:28:43.000 And then I want to show you more contextual answers and ask you before we move on with a claim truth fact check if it changes your opinion or perspective.
00:28:53.000 Here's what they put out: woefully handled.
00:28:57.000 The United States is conducting an operation to eliminate the threat of Iran's short-range ballistic missiles and the threat posed by their Navy, particularly to naval assets.
00:29:07.000 That is what it is focused on doing right now, and it's doing quite successfully.
00:29:10.000 I'll leave it to the Pentagon and the Department of War to discuss the tactics behind that and the progress that's being made.
00:29:16.000 That is the clear objective of this mission.
00:29:18.000 The second question that I've been asked is, why now?
00:29:21.000 Well, there's two reasons why now.
00:29:22.000 The first is it was abundantly clear that if Iran came under attack by anyone, the United States or Israel or anyone, they were going to respond and respond against the United States.
00:29:32.000 The orders had been delegated down to the field commanders.
00:29:35.000 It was automatic, and in fact, it bared to be true because, in fact, within an hour of the initial attack on the leadership compound, the missile forces in the south and in the north, for that matter, had already been activated to launch.
00:29:49.000 In fact, those had already been pre-positioned.
00:29:52.000 The third is the assessment that was made that if we stood and waited for that attack to come first before we hit them, we would suffer much higher casualties.
00:30:01.000 And so, the president made the very wise decision.
00:30:04.000 We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action.
00:30:06.000 We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces.
00:30:10.000 And we knew that if we didn't preemptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties and perhaps even higher those killed.
00:30:18.000 And then we would all be here answering questions about why we knew that and didn't happen.
00:30:22.000 Now, there's been criticism based on that clip, and rightfully so.
00:30:25.000 Going, oh, so basically, they're not our friends, Israel, and they forced our hand.
00:30:29.000 We shouldn't be going to war on behalf of any other nation.
00:30:32.000 A valid criticism.
00:30:35.000 If that was the sole case.
00:30:39.000 But it wasn't.
00:30:40.000 I also think that we need to walk through that logically and go: look, if we're America, I don't think that we should be sending Israel, whatever it is, three to four billion dollars a year.
00:30:47.000 I think that Israel can handle themselves.
00:30:48.000 I think there are many different vested interests in Iran not getting to the point of being a nuclear power and, frankly, being neutered.
00:30:55.000 But that video shared, it reflected a position of, well, Israel was going to do it, so we had to jump in.
00:31:03.000 Across the board, you can bring up the collage.
00:31:03.000 Right.
00:31:05.000 Across the board, you guys had criticisms.
00:31:07.000 And I actually agree with them.
00:31:10.000 I more so agree with the fact that I can't believe that that is the sole clip or the primary clip that was shared from this White House.
00:31:17.000 So your criticism, by the way, of course, echoed by a lot of people out there, like Senator Mark Warner from Virginia Democrat, jumped at the opportunity to use that and smear the Trump administration.
00:31:27.000 Let's also be clear.
00:31:31.000 Said before, I've said now, there was no imminent threat to the United States of America by the Iranians.
00:31:45.000 There was a threat to Israel.
00:31:50.000 We equate a threat to Israel as the equivalent of an imminent threat to the United States.
00:31:58.000 Then we are in uncharted territory.
00:32:02.000 We have seen the goals for this operation change now, I believe, four or five times.
00:32:12.000 You know, the first time I saw that clip, I could not avert my eyes from his lips.
00:32:18.000 Let's also be clear.
00:32:22.000 I've said before, I've said now, there was no imminent threat to the United States.
00:32:43.000 I get it.
00:32:44.000 That makes sense.
00:32:45.000 That also explains why you're out of the office.
00:32:49.000 So, look, I agree with that.
00:32:51.000 I know I would hate.
00:32:52.000 And by the way, those who are misrepresenting, I guess I should say the premise here, are in complete agreement with the left and Democrats.
00:33:00.000 I would agree with the conclusion if the premise was correct with Warner.
00:33:05.000 But it's not, though.
00:33:06.000 And that's not the only thing that, I highly recommend that you go and watch the full press conference.
00:33:10.000 So let me ask you this.
00:33:11.000 Here's a question.
00:33:12.000 If you could be convinced that Iran, and not just a nuclear Iran, but an Iran that could be, for example, immune and defend their capability of building up nuclear weapons with very clear intent as to how they would use them.
00:33:30.000 If you believe that that was, obviously and eventually a threat to the United States, and they were en route to that right now, if you believe there was a threat to the United States, maybe not now, maybe a year, maybe a year and a half from now, but that was set in stone, not to Israel, to the United States, would that change your opinion on a military operation?
00:33:51.000 That's a question.
00:33:52.000 Genuine question.
00:33:53.000 If Iran was a threat to the United States.
00:33:55.000 We'll get to whether they're a threat to the United States or not.
00:33:58.000 The important part is Rubio made very clear as to why, how, and when Iran would present not as a threat to Israel, but the United States, period.
00:34:09.000 Here you go.
00:34:10.000 It's a long clip for context.
00:34:13.000 The purpose of this is to destroy that missile capability.
00:34:16.000 Why does Iran want that ballistic missile capability?
00:34:19.000 What they are trying to do and have been trying to do for a very long time is build a conventional weapons capability as a shield where they can hide behind.
00:34:28.000 Meaning, there would come a point where they have so many conventional missiles, so many drones, and it can inflict so much damage that no one can do anything about their nuclear program.
00:34:37.000 That is what they were trying to do, is put themselves in a place of immunity where the damage they can inflict on the region would be so high that no one can do anything about their nuclear program or their nuclear ambitions.
00:34:48.000 They are producing, by some estimates, over 100 of these missiles a month.
00:34:53.000 Compare that to the six or seven interceptors that can be built a month.
00:34:56.000 They can build 100 of these a month, not to mention the thousands of one-way attack drones that they also have.
00:35:02.000 They've been doing this for a very long time.
00:35:03.000 And by the way, they've been doing it under sanction.
00:35:06.000 You see the attacks they're conducting right now?
00:35:08.000 They're attacking airports.
00:35:09.000 They're attacking hotels.
00:35:11.000 They're hitting not just military bases.
00:35:13.000 They're attacking our embassies directly.
00:35:15.000 They're attacking facilities that have nothing to do with war or with military.
00:35:18.000 And that's a weak end Iran.
00:35:20.000 That's in Iran despite years of sanction.
00:35:22.000 Imagine a year from now or a year and a half from now the capabilities they would have to inflict damage on us.
00:35:27.000 It's an unacceptable risk, especially in the hands of a regime that's run by radical clerics.
00:35:35.000 The US was forced to strike because of an impending Israeli action.
00:35:39.000 No, first, well, let me two things I would say.
00:35:40.000 Number one is no matter what, ultimately this operation needed to happen.
00:35:43.000 That's the question of why now.
00:35:45.000 But this operation needed to happen because Iran in about a year or a year and a half would cross the line of immunity, meaning they would have so many short-range missiles, so many drones, that no one could do anything about it because they could hold the whole world hostage.
00:35:57.000 Look at the damage they're doing now.
00:35:59.000 And this is a weekend toran.
00:36:00.000 Imagine a year from now.
00:36:02.000 So that had to happen.
00:36:03.000 Obviously, we were aware of Israeli intentions and understood what that would mean for us, and we had to be prepared to act as a result of it.
00:36:09.000 But this had to happen no matter what.
00:36:11.000 Does that change the context?
00:36:13.000 Now, you may buy it, you may not.
00:36:15.000 But that was the argument that he made.
00:36:18.000 It was presented as though he was making the argument, well, we had to do it because Israel, period.
00:36:21.000 Let me ask this.
00:36:22.000 Aurora, was it Aurora, Colorado, I believe, the illegal immigrant apartments?
00:36:27.000 Sorry, Colorado.
00:36:27.000 Yes.
00:36:28.000 Colorado.
00:36:29.000 Okay, let me give you sort of an analogy.
00:36:32.000 If you knew that that was happening and they were building up, basically, their own system of laws, basically a black market, an entire apartment complex of MS-13 members in Aurora, Colorado.
00:36:46.000 If you knew that their eventual goal was 100 or 200 to take over a municipality and you were at five, would you stop it there?
00:36:55.000 Or would you rather face them when there's 100 or 200?
00:37:00.000 It's a legitimate discussion to have.
00:37:02.000 But these are the kinds of decisions that have been made militarily for a very, very long time.
00:37:06.000 And if it seems like I'm always more hesitant or reticent to express an opinion, for example, before the strike on the uranium enrichment facility, yeah, you're right.
00:37:17.000 And the reason why is because there's information that I don't know and I know I can't know.
00:37:22.000 Remember, I said I'm 50-50.
00:37:23.000 I would rather that Israel do it, but I understand the bunker busters.
00:37:26.000 Now, if someone came to me and said, we have the ability to carry out that strike with no loss of life and be over the ocean before anyone wakes up, I would say, well, yeah, okay, I get it.
00:37:37.000 Same thing with this type of operation right now.
00:37:39.000 If someone were to say, hey, look, there is an opportune moment where we can have the Ayatollah and the next top-in-line ranked commanders, two through 75, and they're all going to be in the same spot, and we can take them all out at once.
00:37:53.000 And there's a small moment, I would go, you know what?
00:37:57.000 I understand.
00:37:57.000 Yeah, I think that might be a good move.
00:37:59.000 But I can't know that information, and we shouldn't know that information.
00:38:03.000 My opinion can be changed.
00:38:05.000 Change my mind specifically on military decisions because they are inherently strategic decisions.
00:38:10.000 I want to reiterate this.
00:38:12.000 Opinion, my moral worldview will never be changed on the value of life, abortion, transitioning children, the Second Amendment, the First Amendment.
00:38:21.000 But military decisions that require closed group meetings, they're primarily based on, okay, level of threat, opportunity, and then mitigating any loss of life or resources.
00:38:36.000 And you find the intersect therein.
00:38:38.000 That's how decisions like that are made.
00:38:41.000 That's where I think this discussion needs to take place.
00:38:44.000 And we're going to go through, by the way, some myths out there, some claims versus truths.
00:38:49.000 I think it's very important to note that Iran would be the first nation ever, ever in the history of the world to be at 60% enrichment, really to be at 40% enrichment and not build a nuclear weapon.
00:39:00.000 So if we all start with Iran, we'll build a nuclear weapon if left unchecked.
00:39:05.000 Okay.
00:39:06.000 Should something be done about that?
00:39:08.000 Is that good for the United States?
00:39:08.000 Is that good for the world?
00:39:09.000 Is that America first?
00:39:11.000 And when do you intervene?
00:39:12.000 Well, I think that if you believe you need to intervene, you go level of threat, even if it's eventual, when's the best opportunity to mitigate loss of life and resources?
00:39:22.000 That's my opinion.
00:39:23.000 So let's go, by the way, through some of the claims and truths out there because there is propaganda on all sides.
00:39:30.000 It's time for clean truth.
00:39:36.000 Here are some of the primary claims that are being made out there.
00:39:38.000 Check the references links in the description.
00:39:40.000 By the way, we're live 11 a.m. weekdays, period, if you're watching the clip.
00:39:44.000 First, claim.
00:39:46.000 Sorry, Toulmin, I know I had a bunch of other throats for you.
00:39:49.000 Here's a claim that I see out there.
00:39:51.000 Only the Jews, and I want to be clear, not just the Jews have an interest.
00:39:58.000 Only the Jews have an interest in castrating or overthrowing the Iranian regime.
00:40:05.000 Only the Jews.
00:40:06.000 That's the claim.
00:40:07.000 I don't think we should be fighting wars on behalf of Israel.
00:40:11.000 And many Americans agree with that.
00:40:13.000 No one should have to die for a foreign country.
00:40:16.000 I don't think those four service members died for the United States.
00:40:19.000 I think they died for Iran or for Israel.
00:40:22.000 And this feels very much to me like it is clearly Israel's war.
00:40:26.000 There are a bunch of people in the U.S. government who do not put the United States before the interest of Israel, period.
00:40:32.000 Okay.
00:40:33.000 And then I want to get to you, but here's the truth.
00:40:36.000 Okay.
00:40:36.000 Of course, Israel has an interest in that.
00:40:39.000 But many other parties have a vested interest here, including the United States, which is paramount.
00:40:47.000 But all of the Iranian people around the world, when you see diaspora, pick a country.
00:40:53.000 Are they paid by the Jews?
00:40:56.000 The G7 nations.
00:40:57.000 It's a joint statement reaffirming that Iran can never have nukes.
00:41:01.000 Other nations in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq, and even Jordan.
00:41:07.000 You know, I'm not saying he wasn't a threat, but me being compared to him, I took offense to that.
00:41:14.000 I would too.
00:41:15.000 And one of the primary benefactors, you could say, here is definitely the United States.
00:41:20.000 Iran has had a problem with the United States going back, I mean, as long as we can remember, but certainly starting 79, where they declared war and they've redeclared war against the United States, killed thousands of service members in many of our bases with no intention to stop.
00:41:35.000 So, yes, Israel does.
00:41:37.000 The myth here, the claim that is false, is that only the Jews would have an interest.
00:41:43.000 Well, you may not say that these interests warrant the action, but to say that there aren't other interests outside of Israel is disingenuine, in my opinion.
00:41:53.000 And you also, on Megan Kelly.
00:41:55.000 Yeah, right.
00:41:55.000 Well, you know, even if it's not just Israel's interests, but even if it was saying that, saying that these American soldiers are dying for Israel, you don't get to say that.
00:42:04.000 I mean, you do get to have an opinion, sure, but you don't get to decide what these soldiers are dying for.
00:42:08.000 Only the person who raises their right hand has the ability to decide what they're dying for.
00:42:12.000 They die with that flag on their shoulder.
00:42:14.000 They're going to have a flag in their casket.
00:42:15.000 They didn't die for Israel.
00:42:16.000 They died in service to their country.
00:42:18.000 I just wanted to say that.
00:42:20.000 Don't use soldiers.
00:42:21.000 Stop using soldiers for your agenda.
00:42:23.000 Stop using soldiers to push your slant.
00:42:26.000 Yeah.
00:42:27.000 It's a terrible look.
00:42:28.000 And it's.
00:42:29.000 Well, that's the thing, too.
00:42:30.000 A lot of people use the word never-ending wars.
00:42:32.000 That's a new term.
00:42:33.000 Okay.
00:42:34.000 I understand the concept of it, and I'm against that.
00:42:36.000 But if you could pull the military, guarantee you would see overwhelming support because they've known and had to deal with Iran for a very long time.
00:42:43.000 We'll see with recruiting numbers here in the next quarter.
00:42:45.000 It'll be a great indication of how people feel.
00:42:45.000 Yep.
00:42:48.000 Yeah, we'll see if recruitment numbers go up in dealing with the Ayatollah, with the camping out at respawn kill, or if it did better with two mommies and transition surgery and stretchy maternity suits for female pilots.
00:43:02.000 We'll see which one appeals to those who you want in the military.
00:43:04.000 Next claim that I see made out there is that President Trump betrayed his base.
00:43:13.000 Traitor.
00:43:14.000 I think the president.
00:43:17.000 President Trump is a traitor and is doing this solely at the direction of the Jews like Adelson.
00:43:26.000 This is everywhere.
00:43:27.000 I think the president has gotten very poor counsel, and I do think it matters politically that he was the no more endless wars candidate in 2016 and 2024, particularly.
00:43:37.000 And this looks like an open betrayal of the base.
00:43:39.000 And even right now, Donald Trump barely has majority support of his own base.
00:43:47.000 Think about it.
00:43:48.000 Last I saw it was only like 55% of Trump voters said, like, okay, we'll support the president so far.
00:43:55.000 The most important definition, Chris, is that America first, which is what he ran on, which is the Trump brand, equals zero wars.
00:44:04.000 That's how voters understood it.
00:44:06.000 Well, look, if we actually had an America-first foreign policy, which means not in the hands of Miriam Adelson and the Zionist lobby, if we actually had that, NetNow couldn't do anything about it.
00:44:24.000 Because Israel, with its 8 to 10 million people, cannot fight Iran with its 100 million people.
00:44:35.000 Okay, and here's the truth.
00:44:38.000 I would be upset if I thought that that was the only reason President Trump is targeting Iran as well.
00:44:45.000 If I believe that he had done a 180, I go, oh, yeah, okay, that is a betrayal.
00:44:50.000 By the way, when he says no new wars, he's not a warmonger president.
00:44:56.000 Peace through strength.
00:44:58.000 Remember Venezuela?
00:44:59.000 I will tell you this, before I get to the truth.
00:45:02.000 If this is what it looks like, not everything is comparable to Iraq.
00:45:07.000 If it looks like Venezuela, if it looks like the Iranian enrichment facilities, if it looks like the first day or two that we saw with Ayatollah through rank 75 can be taken out in swift order, it's one of those areas where I'm going to trust the president's judgment because I think there are a lot of people, a lot of bad actors around the world going, you can just do stuff?
00:45:29.000 Yeah, I think it's great for other world leaders to look at this and remember that it could be you at any time.
00:45:35.000 Right.
00:45:36.000 But this idea that he betrayed his base, it's not President Trump's fault.
00:45:42.000 The truth here, it's not President Trump's fault that you weren't paying attention.
00:45:47.000 The truth, did we already hit the truth?
00:45:49.000 I'll hit it again.
00:45:49.000 Yeah.
00:45:50.000 The truth is he's been clear on Iran since the Iranian revolution.
00:45:54.000 I've shown you clips from, I believe, 2015.
00:45:56.000 I've shown you tweets from 2011.
00:45:58.000 Here's one from 1980, where before President Trump knew that he would ever run for the presidency, he was expressing the idea of America first and how Iran needs to be turned into an example for the sake of America.
00:46:14.000 You may not agree, but you can't say that he's changed his mind.
00:46:18.000 When you get the respect of the other countries, then the other countries tend to do a little bit as you do, and you can create the right attitudes.
00:46:26.000 The Iranian situation is a case in point.
00:46:29.000 That they hold our hostages is just absolutely and totally ridiculous.
00:46:36.000 That this country sits back and allows a country such as Iran to hold our hostages, to my way of thinking, is a horror.
00:46:46.000 And I don't think they'd do it with other countries.
00:46:49.000 I honestly don't think they'd do it with other countries.
00:46:51.000 Obviously, you're advocating that we should have gone in there with troops, et cetera, and brought our boys out.
00:46:56.000 I absolutely feel that, yes.
00:46:58.000 I don't think there's any question and there's no question in my mind.
00:47:01.000 I think right now we'd be an oil-rich nation, and I believe that we should have done it, and I'm very disappointed that we didn't do it.
00:47:09.000 And I don't think anybody would have held us in abeyance.
00:47:12.000 I don't think anybody would have been angry with us.
00:47:15.000 And we had every right to do it at the time.
00:47:17.000 I think we've lost the opportunity.
00:47:19.000 Now, here's why that's important.
00:47:21.000 That's him in 1980 saying the United States needs to earn the respect of the world, and there's nothing that anyone could do.
00:47:27.000 We need to act like the leaders that we are, and we have the right to get our people back and set the tone.
00:47:32.000 That's 1980.
00:47:34.000 They say, well, okay.
00:47:36.000 Do we see that reflected later on?
00:47:40.000 Is it consistent with the make America great, America first values?
00:47:44.000 Well, remember that famous escalator ride in 2015?
00:47:47.000 That famous video, that famous image took that escalator down and in that very first speech reiterated his sentiments from 1980, from 2004, from 2011.
00:47:59.000 You may not agree with him, but he's not a traitor.
00:48:02.000 Here it is.
00:48:03.000 I will stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons, and we won't be using a man like Secretary Kerry that has absolutely no concept of negotiation, who's making a horrible and laughable deal, who's just being tapped along as they make weapons right now, and then goes into a bicycle race at 72 years old and closes and rakes his leg.
00:48:28.000 I will be doing that.
00:48:29.000 And I promise I will never be in a bicycle race, that I can tell you.
00:48:34.000 So no nukes in Iran and no bicycle race.
00:48:37.000 Bicycles are gay.
00:48:38.000 Yeah, he's kept both promises.
00:48:40.000 They look like a gay flock of seagulls in their spandex, availing their asses.
00:48:48.000 Genuine question.
00:48:49.000 And we'll take your chats.
00:48:50.000 Wherever you line up, can you honestly sit there and say that Donald Trump is a traitor?
00:48:56.000 Can you honestly say that his stance on Iran, and I know people will pull up some tweets where they'll say Donald Trump said that Barack Obama would attack Iran because he was saying that Barack Obama had no balls and so ultimately he wasn't able to handle negotiations.
00:49:11.000 He was trying to say that he knew how to do the art of the, we have statement after how far we have very few people, by the way, on earth, on earth, who we could point to and say has been that consistent on any issue.
00:49:25.000 We're just fortunate that he was a public figure pre-social media where we have his opinion on Iran in 1980.
00:49:31.000 You want to impeach him or you want to vote left or stay home during midterms because you think it's that big of a betrayal?
00:49:37.000 That really is the question, regardless of your stance on Iran.
00:49:41.000 You voted for Trump.
00:49:42.000 He's the same guy from that 1980 clip, same guy from the 2015 clip.
00:49:46.000 You willing to throw everything else away?
00:49:50.000 Here's the next claim that I see people making that well, Iran and Russia both had nukes, but so why didn't we?
00:50:00.000 Why don't we go after Russia then?
00:50:02.000 You see this a lot.
00:50:03.000 Kalaj C3 there, Applejack.
00:50:05.000 That brings us to a new segment, which we like to call meme check, and this is what we're going to actually address.
00:50:31.000 Some very popular memes out there that get shared because we go.
00:50:35.000 This is a great point, it's.
00:50:36.000 It's not.
00:50:38.000 It's an untrue meme.
00:50:40.000 I don't care.
00:50:41.000 I know that your, I know that, I know your boomer grandmother or mother might actually have her meme forwarding office as though it's a part-time job.
00:50:49.000 It doesn't mean that it's accurate.
00:50:50.000 So the meme, and I've seen so many memes out there.
00:50:52.000 So if Iran has, what's that one?
00:50:54.000 I'm attacking because they have nuclear weapons.
00:50:57.000 Iran, why don't you attack Russia?
00:50:58.000 Are you crazy?
00:50:59.000 They have nuclear weapons.
00:50:59.000 This has been shared out there millions and millions of times.
00:51:01.000 People go, yeah, it's a great point.
00:51:02.000 Points on hypocrisy.
00:51:03.000 Iran never had nukes, dummy.
00:51:03.000 Here's the truth.
00:51:06.000 They didn't have nukes yet.
00:51:07.000 Hit truth, toolman.
00:51:08.000 Iran doesn't have nukes, dummy.
00:51:11.000 That's the whole fucking point.
00:51:13.000 The point is that they were past the point of no return where they could become the next Russia or China.
00:51:18.000 You may not agree with it, but picture North Korea.
00:51:21.000 We can't touch that crazy little Muppet bastard.
00:51:24.000 Because he has nukes, but they're a poor nation.
00:51:24.000 Why?
00:51:27.000 So they're pretty much just isolated and off on their own.
00:51:30.000 But think of the threats.
00:51:32.000 You agree?
00:51:33.000 China?
00:51:34.000 China is a major threat as it relates to AI, as it relates to manufacturing.
00:51:37.000 You think that the leverage of nukes helps?
00:51:41.000 Do you think that, by the way, this is all part of the same problem?
00:51:44.000 The Democrats' never-ending pledge to fund the war between Russia and Ukraine, which I am against, by the way.
00:51:50.000 But do you think that Russia is less likely to come to the table and negotiate because they have nukes?
00:51:55.000 The whole point here is Iran did not have nukes, but they were on their way.
00:52:00.000 So we wanted to avoid specifically another China or a Russia with a much more, and I know this is crazy, I'm saying unstable nation because it wasn't even run by a president, even if it's a dictator who's installed as a president or a prime minister, but basically second in command to God for this sect of Islam, the Ayatollah.
00:52:23.000 You understand that, right?
00:52:25.000 Iran was at 60% enriched uranium, okay, just to be clear.
00:52:31.000 There has never been, ever, a non-nuclear state.
00:52:37.000 There has never been another country that has passed the 20% threshold and not built a nuke.
00:52:44.000 Do you believe that Iran would be the first?
00:52:46.000 Answer.
00:52:47.000 Answer.
00:52:48.000 I really want an answer.
00:52:49.000 Do you believe that they would be the first?
00:52:51.000 Now, you can say, guarantee you Iran was going to build a nuke.
00:52:54.000 We know that.
00:52:56.000 All right.
00:52:56.000 You can say, unstable regime, death cult.
00:53:00.000 I still don't think it's America first to do anything.
00:53:02.000 You can say that, or it's not the right time.
00:53:04.000 Fine.
00:53:06.000 Fine.
00:53:07.000 But don't try and trot out your silly little tired shitty tropes comparing it to Iraq because we're not just, it's not some guy.
00:53:16.000 Or the IAEA, by the way, who said that Iraq did not have nukes, have said that they have nukes because this has been an on go.
00:53:21.000 People go, oh, they've been saying that they're going to get a nuke for five years, for 10 years, for 30 years.
00:53:25.000 Yeah, because we've watched the percentage go.
00:53:27.000 It's like watching your battery percentage go down.
00:53:30.000 You can watch it go, oh, okay, they're already past 20%.
00:53:32.000 This would be the first nation that's never built nukes.
00:53:35.000 So when you see this meme out there, people go, that's a good point.
00:53:37.000 Russia has nukes.
00:53:38.000 And Iraq, why do we treat one different?
00:53:40.000 Must be the Jews.
00:53:41.000 Everything about that meme is wrong.
00:53:44.000 Do you honestly believe that Iran was not going to build nuclear weapons?
00:53:48.000 And then, in combination with Marco Rubio communicated, we were about a year to a year and a half away, whether you believe it or not.
00:53:56.000 This is the case he presented.
00:53:58.000 We were about a year to a year and a half away from not being able to stop them at all.
00:54:03.000 In other words, to get to the point where they could build the nukes completely unfettered, where we wouldn't be able to do anything with short-range missiles, with one-way attack drones.
00:54:11.000 They were about a year to a year and a half away from that, where we would no longer be able to negotiate with them because we'd have no leverage.
00:54:18.000 They could be on their way to a nuke.
00:54:20.000 And to be clear on that, we talked about this yesterday, but when they do operations orders and plan a mission, they take into account how many casualties they expect to lose.
00:54:27.000 So it would be something we could do something about, but it would probably be over that threshold.
00:54:31.000 Right.
00:54:31.000 So I think that's what he means by that.
00:54:34.000 We had the capabilities.
00:54:35.000 We could have still done it, but we would have lost so many more people and it would have been such a bigger event of chaos.
00:54:41.000 And the point that I'm making here is, I will tell you, look, I support right now seeing what I'm, I support this action in Iran.
00:54:49.000 I do.
00:54:51.000 I think that's been carried out pretty effectively.
00:54:52.000 I know things could go sideways.
00:54:54.000 I understand that.
00:54:55.000 But I am arguing against the case for impeachment or staying home on election because you believe that this is such a deep betrayal.
00:55:02.000 Do you believe that Donald Trump pulled a 180?
00:55:04.000 I don't think you can make a case.
00:55:06.000 Do you believe that Iran was no threat?
00:55:09.000 You believe they weren't on their way to building nukes?
00:55:12.000 I just, I don't see how you can make the case.
00:55:13.000 You'd have to make, you'd have to take a leap in faith that they would be the first nation to ever get to that threshold and not.
00:55:20.000 They're such a good faith actor that they are not going to build a nuke.
00:55:24.000 So my case is, do you really believe that this judgment call militarily is worth throwing everything else out?
00:55:32.000 And that brings us to the next meme because I see people going, yeah, well, the thing is he hasn't done anything.
00:55:36.000 He's promised.
00:55:36.000 Closed border, 95% reduction, nothing.
00:55:39.000 3 million deportations?
00:55:41.000 Nothing.
00:55:41.000 Voter ID?
00:55:42.000 Nothing?
00:55:43.000 I get some of them are executive orders, but you're going to say that this is nothing because you're making the case that there should be no MAGA, there should be no America First, there should be no conservative movement in this country that Iran warrants the evaporation of it, because that's what we're facing, to be clear.
00:56:02.000 I'm saying that I think we can have disagreements on this, and we still don't want to hand this country over to the left.
00:56:08.000 This goes to the next claim that is very, very lazy.
00:56:10.000 All references, check the links.
00:56:12.000 People will say, oh, it's a meme too.
00:56:14.000 So Trump can bomb the Ayatollah, but not solve, insert domestic problem here, not deal with homeless, not deal with ICE protesters.
00:56:23.000 In Manage, you have this meme right here.
00:56:25.000 The U.S. government funding relief checks, healthcare, and infrastructure.
00:56:28.000 No, the U.S. government funding the military.
00:56:30.000 All right.
00:56:30.000 Okay.
00:56:31.000 So a couple of points here.
00:56:34.000 First off, a lot of those images are from blue cities.
00:56:37.000 When I see people on the right using these talking points, I'm just hit truth because I'm going to go along with a whole bunch of things that I was going to say.
00:56:45.000 But you know what?
00:56:46.000 There's so many points.
00:56:47.000 Those are blue cities.
00:56:48.000 You think Donald Trump can control what happens in Philly or Portland?
00:56:53.000 You think he can bomb Philly or Portland?
00:56:56.000 No, just targeted missiles at the homeless.
00:56:58.000 Right.
00:56:59.000 Here's the other thing.
00:57:00.000 You could give every single druggie and homeless person in those cities, you could give them $100,000 today.
00:57:05.000 By the end of the week, you'd have the same exact problem.
00:57:09.000 So this idea is very leftist that if we just throw money at the problem, that'll fix it.
00:57:14.000 We can also get to the budgetary issues, too.
00:57:17.000 We'll get to that.
00:57:17.000 You do realize $140 to $450 billion a year, illegal immigrants cost taxpayers, $500 billion a year in fraud.
00:57:28.000 You guys understand, like, these things need to be dealt with.
00:57:30.000 We are not even close to a drop in that bucket when we're talking about the military.
00:57:33.000 Here's the other truth that's really important.
00:57:35.000 Okay, for the same reason that everyone in the DNC and people like Dave Smith and Tucker Carlson are wrong when they say this is an illegal war, they're wrong.
00:57:46.000 The president on issues of foreign policy, the president is as close to, is not, but as close to basically a monarch as you get in this country.
00:57:56.000 Yeah, he can bomb any insane dictator that he wants, to be clear.
00:58:02.000 He can go out, he can do that.
00:58:04.000 He has a window of time to let Congress.
00:58:06.000 And even then, people will argue that's unconstitutional.
00:58:08.000 You can see Donald Trump do it.
00:58:09.000 You can see Barack Obama.
00:58:11.000 Every single president has done something like this.
00:58:12.000 He has the ability to go out on domestic matters.
00:58:16.000 It's the opposite.
00:58:17.000 The president is more of a figurehead, to be clear.
00:58:21.000 It largely rests with the legislative.
00:58:23.000 On the domestic issues, he has to deal with mayors and sanctuary cities and governors not cooperating with ICE.
00:58:30.000 And governors also protecting illegal aliens.
00:58:33.000 Then it has, how many times have you seen something?
00:58:35.000 Go through the courts, local courts, all the way up to the Supreme Court.
00:58:39.000 There are all kinds of mechanisms to create gridlock.
00:58:43.000 What this proves is that when an administration is free to carry out an action unilaterally, it's far more effective.
00:58:53.000 Iran enrichment facilities, Venezuela, even what we are seeing right now, if you disagree with it.
00:59:00.000 Foreign policy, president has a lot of authority.
00:59:04.000 Domestic issues, unless you completely want to do away with states' rights, because you'd have to go in and basically destroy blue cities, which I'm not completely against, then you understand why this meme is silly and it's stupid.
00:59:18.000 It's like, well, this thing isn't perfect, so then we don't give credit for this thing.
00:59:25.000 So it does matter.
00:59:27.000 It does matter to be accurate.
00:59:28.000 Also, one final, when we're talking about this, the first day of operations in Iran cost about $779 million, right?
00:59:34.000 This was written up everywhere.
00:59:37.000 Sounds like a lot.
00:59:38.000 That's 0.09% of our total defense budget.
00:59:42.000 Wow.
00:59:43.000 So what that tells me is, hey, maybe our defense budget needs to be looked at because we could be doing stuff like this.
00:59:43.000 To be clear.
00:59:51.000 What's happening on a day-to-day basis?
00:59:53.000 In other words, we could spend a smaller percentage on a day-to-day basis at war in our defense budget than while we remain effectively idle.
01:00:04.000 So to act like that somehow has anything to do with mayors and governors in Minneapolis, Minnesota blocking presidential authority is to play into the hands of the left, along with saying that Donald Trump betrayed his base.
01:00:19.000 Along with saying that, well, only Israel would have an interest in Iran not having nukes or not being a global power.
01:00:26.000 It's disingenuous at best.
01:00:29.000 It's uninformed.
01:00:31.000 And it prevents us from having the legitimate conversation as to what kind of military intervention, if any, is appropriate.
01:00:38.000 But we shouldn't have this conversation based on lies and stupid memes that your grandma forwarded because she watched Tucker's newest episode and likes that he has spank.
01:00:47.000 This has been fucking Meme Check.
01:01:07.000 We just want to run the stinger one more time.
01:01:09.000 Yeah, you have to do it.
01:01:09.000 No, it's fair.
01:01:10.000 By the way, really quickly, so as we were talking about this, the rapid response account that we had a problem with for clipping the worst context portion of that speech actually put out another post with the actual best portion of it.
01:01:22.000 We don't have to play the clip, but basically in the text, they say, you know, basically, did you go, they asked the question, did you go for Israel and say Marco Rubio saying no, no, and then the rest of the answer.
01:01:30.000 And it's like, that's the first thing you put out.
01:01:33.000 Right.
01:01:33.000 Don't have to come back and fix this mistake.
01:01:36.000 But at least they did.
01:01:37.000 Yeah.
01:01:37.000 They gave, you know, it was a layup and they allowed it to take place.
01:01:41.000 And that brings us to people will be out there and they'll point out Israeli propaganda.
01:01:45.000 I get it.
01:01:46.000 Obviously that happens.
01:01:47.000 And by the way, all nations do it, just to be clear.
01:01:50.000 You don't think that two mommies and transitioning and sex change surgery in the United States military, you don't think that was propaganda from the Biden administration?
01:01:58.000 And you don't think it's propaganda to varying degrees when this administration re-titles it the Department of War and says we are going to be the strongest, fittest military?
01:02:08.000 It's propaganda.
01:02:09.000 It's about getting your country to believe in the agenda and the direction of your administration.
01:02:15.000 So all nations do it.
01:02:17.000 And I don't think we should be following Israel's lead as far as their propaganda on anything.
01:02:21.000 I don't think we should be sending them a bunch of money.
01:02:23.000 I don't think there should be a blank check.
01:02:24.000 I don't think we should be led into war if it's only in their interest.
01:02:27.000 I think we should be leading the dance in all facets, including trade, including AI, including militarily.
01:02:27.000 Period.
01:02:36.000 And by the way, I think we need to rethink our European alliances.
01:02:39.000 Spain now saying we're not going to let you use the bases that you have here.
01:02:42.000 Hope you siesta with one eye open, you stupid faggots.
01:02:48.000 Oh, think about that.
01:02:49.000 Spain.
01:02:51.000 I can't believe that the United States would do.
01:02:53.000 What?
01:02:54.000 You can't believe that we might not need your permission considering you haven't paid your contractually obligated bill for decades.
01:03:00.000 It's such a moral wrong for us to deal with the regime in Iran that you are going to prevent us from using bases that, by the way, have also helped maintain the existence of your indefensible country.
01:03:14.000 A country that did not help at all in a bunch of different conflicts last century.
01:03:20.000 Yeah.
01:03:21.000 Lucky to be in NATO in the first place.
01:03:23.000 Right.
01:03:24.000 Right.
01:03:24.000 So a lot of nations have vested interests.
01:03:26.000 Israel will put up.
01:03:27.000 Spain wants to put up propaganda that, you know, my God, they're a real country anymore.
01:03:30.000 Kind of like Canada.
01:03:32.000 But my primary concern is with a lot of propaganda coming from Iran right now.
01:03:36.000 And the reason why that's a primary concern is because I see people who claim to be America first parroting propaganda from Iran with no semblance of fact-checking or due diligence.
01:03:46.000 Here's just some of it.
01:04:06.000 Yeah.
01:04:07.000 It's like Mexican soap operas.
01:04:24.000 Look at how much water we have!
01:04:28.000 All the water!
01:04:29.000 Look, our trucks are camouflaged.
01:04:31.000 Well, you will never see us coming.
01:04:36.000 It's a banker.
01:04:37.000 Small people makes it look bigger.
01:04:39.000 Yeah, and here are some other examples.
01:04:40.000 Green camouflage in Iran.
01:04:43.000 And there's misinformation out there, so it's hard to know what's true.
01:04:46.000 My issue is with people who should know better, who know that it's hard to know what's true and simply want to be first or want to score pot shots against consistently the United States.
01:04:57.000 So here's one out there.
01:04:59.000 United States and Israel hit a school and they killed a bunch of kids, bunch of innocent children, the United States.
01:05:05.000 Clearly, without the whole picture, without all the information, this was immediately parodied by Gavin Newsom and Jeffrey Sachs and the like.
01:05:12.000 We have to reconcile why our bombs were used or Israeli bombs were used to kill children, young girls at a school, and what the imminent threat was.
01:05:21.000 They're killing schoolgirls.
01:05:23.000 No one even pauses.
01:05:25.000 150 schoolgirls bombed by Israel.
01:05:28.000 No one even mentions these things.
01:05:32.000 It's absolutely shocking, disgraceful, dangerous, bankrupting our country, and Trump lied.
01:05:41.000 And that was parodied by the Anna Jackson Henkley of Dev Smith, Marjorie Taylor Greene.
01:05:44.000 Okay.
01:05:45.000 Here's the thing.
01:05:46.000 I will tell you, I can't fact check it because at this point in time, it's still unclear as to whether the United States did that.
01:05:54.000 My issue is with people immediately assuming that the United States did that and implying that there was some nefarious motive, immediately and consistently painting the United States as the bad guys who target innocent children.
01:06:12.000 Someone does that.
01:06:14.000 Well, it doesn't sound like you're America first.
01:06:16.000 Keep in mind that many of the same people saying, well, here you go.
01:06:19.000 Here's your America first.
01:06:20.000 The United States military killing children were the same people who were offended at the idea that the Israeli military go to lengths to protect civilians.
01:06:30.000 I'm not saying the Jews are perfect.
01:06:33.000 What I'm saying is there's an inconsistency in your level of offense when you're effectively calling American troops baby killers.
01:06:40.000 As an American, permit me a moment of outrage because I said many civilians have been killed.
01:06:40.000 Play the clip.
01:06:48.000 And you said right in the middle of your elaborate defense of the IDF's killing of civilians, including children, you said they do a better job than the United States does.
01:06:57.000 That's my country and my government.
01:06:58.000 It's my country.
01:07:00.000 What flag am I wearing here?
01:07:02.000 Well, I'm asking, why is it?
01:07:04.000 What flag am I wearing?
01:07:05.000 Well, that's, of course, my flag as well.
01:07:07.000 And it's my flag.
01:07:08.000 It's who I serve.
01:07:09.000 So why the dig at the United States?
01:07:11.000 It's not a dig at Western.
01:07:12.000 No, no, no, no.
01:07:13.000 You've totally misrepresented that.
01:07:14.000 What did you mean by that?
01:07:15.000 I did not take a dig at the U.S. What I'm saying is.
01:07:18.000 You said the IDF is more humane than the U.S.
01:07:20.000 And by the way, I probably agree with Tucker Carlson on more things in that interview than Governor Mike Huckabee, to be clear.
01:07:28.000 But if you're going to be offended at that and say, I can't believe that you would imply the United States isn't as humane as Israel, do you have the same level of offense for people who immediately go, United States baby killers?
01:07:42.000 Because you know who doesn't think that we're baby killers?
01:07:45.000 The Iranian people all across the globe.
01:07:49.000 All across the globe.
01:07:50.000 Not saying that we should go to war for the Iranian people.
01:07:52.000 That's not what I'm saying.
01:07:53.000 But what I am saying is the Iranian people probably would have the strongest motivation to say, hey, the United States, you're the bad guys.
01:08:02.000 You're killing innocent children.
01:08:04.000 Instead, they're dancing in the streets.
01:08:06.000 So I ask you, why are commentators and influencers who accuse anyone of disagreeing with them, the people who call for the impeachment of Donald Trump, the people who say stay home during the midterms, why are they always immediately saying United States military are baby killers and they're doing it on purpose?
01:08:20.000 So I can't tell you if we did do this.
01:08:22.000 I would be willing to bet if it did happen that it obviously wasn't targeted.
01:08:26.000 And I would direct you to, again, what was a fantastic press conference from Barco Rubio.
01:08:31.000 This is how one should approach the fog of war.
01:08:46.000 Yeah, I've seen those reports.
01:08:47.000 I don't have, I would refer you, not because I'm not trying to answer your question, but I don't want to get it wrong.
01:08:51.000 The Department of War would be investigating that if that was our strike.
01:08:55.000 And I would refer your question to them.
01:08:57.000 And I'll make sure they're aware that you have that question.
01:08:59.000 But we'd like to know.
01:09:02.000 Well, clearly, the United States would not deliberately target a school.
01:09:05.000 Our objectives are missiles.
01:09:07.000 Both the ability to manufacture and the one-way attract drones.
01:09:11.000 That would be our focus.
01:09:12.000 And that's what we would be focused on.
01:09:13.000 We would have no interest and, frankly, no incentive to target civilian infrastructure.
01:09:19.000 The Iranians are, on the other hand, targeting civilian infrastructure.
01:09:22.000 I'm sure you've seen it.
01:09:22.000 You guys have seen it.
01:09:23.000 They're hitting hotels.
01:09:24.000 They're hitting embassies.
01:09:26.000 They're hitting airports.
01:09:27.000 They're hitting oil infrastructure.
01:09:31.000 Well, it'd be very tragic, but I can't speak to the details behind it because I just don't have it.
01:09:36.000 I think that's a good way to handle it.
01:09:38.000 By the way, I could present to you the other, which would also be propaganda because some people are parroting this and they haven't done their due diligence either.
01:09:38.000 There you go.
01:09:45.000 There was an unverified telegram stating that Iran knew they struck their own school by accident and used it or on purpose, used it for propaganda.
01:09:53.000 That cannot be confirmed.
01:09:56.000 So I can tell you that neither one is confirmed.
01:09:58.000 I can also provide some context.
01:10:00.000 The Iran Revolutionary Guard facility is located right next to a school.
01:10:03.000 I can also provide you some context.
01:10:05.000 The same people who immediately jump and accuse this administration and accuse American troops of being baby killers are the same people who blamed, for example, the IDF for that Al-Ali hospital.
01:10:16.000 Remember that explosion?
01:10:18.000 It was caused by Islamic jihadists, and they didn't retract it.
01:10:24.000 Let me be really simple with this.
01:10:26.000 If there is collateral damage, and there always will be in war, on the opposing side of the United States, with incomplete information as an America first person, I tend to believe that the United States is more likely to be the good guys than Iran.
01:10:44.000 That's my default position.
01:10:46.000 Why is yours the opposite?
01:10:48.000 That's my question.
01:10:50.000 Why is yours that the United States military are the bad guys who are targeting children?
01:10:55.000 And how can you logically justify your position in comparison, not in a vacuum, to Iran and the Ayatollah Satan rape his soul?
01:11:07.000 Here's another one.
01:11:09.000 Facts are still coming out, but there are people who parroted this.
01:11:12.000 Why would people so quickly want to parrot a loss?
01:11:15.000 The United States.
01:11:16.000 Spoil alert, not true.
01:11:17.000 Iran struck the USS Abraham Lincoln.
01:11:21.000 You know who got in on this action?
01:11:23.000 You're in good company.
01:11:24.000 Chinese state media with their propaganda.
01:11:32.000 Oh, they got incredible footage of this.
01:11:56.000 Whoa.
01:11:58.000 Oh, he split it in half.
01:11:59.000 I guess they had a documentary filmmaker there.
01:12:02.000 And it was parroted by Al Jazeera, Russia Today, a bunch of other places.
01:12:05.000 And of course, the Black Bill, the dissident right.
01:12:08.000 Here's the truth.
01:12:09.000 The Lincoln was not hit.
01:12:10.000 The missiles launched didn't even come close.
01:12:11.000 That's what we know right now.
01:12:12.000 The Lincoln continues to.
01:12:14.000 This comes to us, by the way, from CENTCOM.
01:12:16.000 The Lincoln continues to launch aircraft in support of CENTCOM's relentless campaign to defend the American people by eliminating threats from the Iranian regime.
01:12:22.000 it wasn't true the issue is that was parroted by now why would people the same people who jump to accuse the united states military of being baby killers and donald trump of betraying their base Same people, by the way, saying that this is an illegal war, also be really, really quick to jump the gun and say, look, the Lincoln was hit.
01:12:44.000 Iran is effective.
01:12:48.000 You're starting to put it together?
01:12:49.000 By the way, I know I've gone over time.
