Trump hits a wall within his own party in the Senate, and he s running out of patience. Plus, one of President Trump s biggest haters just switched sides and said it s time to pass the Save America Act, because in fact, it s what the American people want.
00:02:33.260but there's obviously a strained relationship right now between Thune and Trump.
00:02:38.600If Trump is thinking strategically, the next Congress in January is where he needs to change a few things.
00:02:46.780That means backing a more America first MAGA aligned Senate leader and moving away from the McConnell Thune era of caution, corporate republicanism so that his final two years as president can be aggressive, strong and avoid impeachment games.
00:03:09.220In short, the Save America fight isn't just about a bill.
00:03:13.800It's about who actually runs the Republican Party in Washington, D.C.
00:06:21.660And this is in the middle of a hot war and non-stop 90 plus percent negative information
00:06:30.580about Donald Trump on the mainstream media.
00:06:33.700McLaughlin's numbers suggest Republicans could be favored in up to 215 House seats this midterm,
00:06:40.920Meaning there's really only three toss up seats in order to clinch the majority, something that Hakeem Jeffries does not want to happen.
00:06:51.500This means that those races will get extra money from the RNC and from Trump and other MAGA warriors, which I've told you is the highest we've ever had going into a midterm election.
00:07:04.320So here's the message. Stay optimistic. Let's defy history.
00:07:09.460We don't need it to go back to the Democrats just because that's what has happened in the past.
00:07:14.920If Republicans secure the elections with the Save America Act and they turn up, we are going to absolutely dominate.
00:07:24.000President Trump will have two final strong years and you have to get out and vote because winning this election ensures that we win in 2028.
00:07:34.860Now, U.S. intelligence and military officials are now tracking a cadre of known Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps terrorists who recently flew to the country of Yemen to coordinate directly with the Houthis on shutting down the Red Sea Strait.
00:07:55.140According to multiple military reports, between roughly a dozen and two dozen IRGC commanders and advisors landed in Houthi-controlled territory at the Mon Air flight base, bringing missiles and drone components with them.
00:08:12.540All of this is to try to fund the Houthis to attack Saudi Arabia, distract from the blockade on the Strait of Hormuz, and to try to create their own blockade or terrorist activity on Saudi Arabia.
00:08:28.980Their mission is simple but dangerous. Help the Houthis position missiles and drones near Bob-el-Mandaib, the choke point at the mouth of the Red Sea, and stand ready to close the route if the United States attacks power grids in Iran or other critical infrastructure.0.85
00:08:46.840sources say IRGC operatives on the ground would control the decision of when to actually move
00:08:55.380from threat to blockade effectively turning Yemen into Tehran's remote controlled trigger0.62
00:09:01.740against the United States of the world now what's striking is how willing Iran appears to be0.75
00:09:10.120to bleed for this strategy, accepting the risk of human casualty, destroyed missile sites and0.66
00:09:18.340even severe hits to its own oil revenue. If that's what it takes to humiliate Donald Trump
00:09:25.040on the world stage, keep global fuel prices elevated and to undermine the effectiveness
00:09:31.320of the U.S. naval blockade. NATO is going to have to get involved. Other countries are likely going
00:09:37.440to have to get involved this time. The U.S. military can do it all. But if Iran fills the
00:09:43.420pressure of multiple countries, I think that this thing will clear up faster than it would0.94
00:09:48.920otherwise. Now, the message from Tehran is clear. They are ready to sacrifice hardware and income0.84
00:09:55.720to prove that they still control the choke point of the most vital artery for global trade and oil.
00:10:04.460And also, they want Trump to pay a political price at the gas pump,
00:10:09.160hoping that he will lose the midterm election and be impeached.0.89
00:10:13.520Now, Iran isn't just willing to bleed at home.0.85
00:10:16.380It's now bleeding through its proxies at sea.
00:10:20.360As we just covered, Tehran is sending IRGC commanders into Yemen
00:10:24.600to help the Houthis threaten the Red Sea and Saudi Arabia.
00:10:28.700Now the Houthis say they have actually already pulled the trigger.
00:10:32.460twice attacking two saudi arabia oil tankers and selia and the leila at the mouth of the red sea
00:10:40.280they accuse the ships of violating their self-declared blockade on saudi linked sea
00:10:47.240traffic and say drones and missiles set at least one tanker on fire all of this comes as the u.s
00:10:53.980completes its 12th straight night of strikes on iran trying to degrade to ron's ability to hit
00:11:00.460commercial shipping and to move drones and missiles to the Yemen coast. Put this together,
00:11:08.260it proves the point. Iran is prepared to absorb U.S. airstrikes, lose hardware and risk oil
00:11:14.100disruption in order to humiliate Trump and make gas expensive. So every Houthi hit on Saudi0.66
00:11:23.220tankers is another reminder that Iran is still in the business of exporting terrorism as well0.91
00:11:30.400as oil. This is what they believe their greatest political leverage point and the choke point0.96
00:11:37.380on Trump's future as the leader of America. As of the filming of this, oil did just drop below
00:11:45.400$90 a barrel. It's still higher than any of us want, and we're hoping that these prices
00:11:51.200will continue to come back down and that we can de-escalate and get back to the negotiating table.
00:12:00.400dr fauci is about to have the most high stake day of his post-government life and the big question
00:12:10.540is whether he will finally tell the full truth or hide behind his biden era pardon and keep the
00:12:17.920cover up going many are predicting he's just going to plead the fifth now dr fauci has been subpoenaed
00:12:25.500to testify next week before the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affair Committee,
00:12:31.520chaired by Senator Rand Paul, his greatest nemesis. The hearing will drill into three
00:12:37.560explosive areas, U.S. funding of risky coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology,
00:12:45.440his behind-the-scenes role in steering scientists away from the lab leak theory,
00:12:51.440and whether he misled Congress in past testimony about gain-of-function work.
00:12:58.520Now, Senator Paul has already released documents showing Dr. Fauci was deeply embedded
00:13:04.900with the national security apparatus, reviewing classified intel and coordinating messages
00:13:10.920on COVID origin while his own agency funded related research.
00:13:16.300Whistleblowers say intelligence analysts repeatedly assessed a lab leak as the most likely origin,
00:13:22.780yet the public line, helped by Fauci-aligned scientists and the famous proximal origin paper,
00:13:30.020branded the lab leak as conspiracy and crazy.
00:13:34.140It's now been proven that that was the truth.
00:13:37.260Biden quietly gave Dr. Fauci a preemptive pardon on his way out the door, literally the last day,
00:13:43.900specifically to shield him from criminal exposure under a Trump Justice Department.
00:13:50.720Legally, this means Dr. Fauci can't invoke the Fifth on self-incrimination.
00:13:56.500He can either come clean or risk being nailed for lying to Congress.
00:14:00.500For millions of Americans who lost businesses, loved ones, and trust during COVID,
00:14:08.840Does Fauci finally admit what he knew and when he knew it,
00:14:12.620Or does he double down on the narrative and risk his pardon?
00:14:17.220My guess is he's going to try to spin this somehow in order to make himself look like a hero.
00:14:24.100That seems to be the way he always does it.
00:14:26.760Now, President Trump shockingly rolled out a new phase of his trade revolution, and this one hit almost the entire world at once.
00:14:36.640The administration is slapping a fresh tariff of 10 to 12.5% on imports from 60 U.S. trade partners, covering roughly 99% of everything that comes into the United States.
00:14:51.400This replaces the temporary across-the-board 10% tariff that just expired and rebuilds Trump's tariff agenda on a new legal foundation, forced labor enforcement.
00:15:02.880The logic is simple and politically powerful.
00:15:06.640If your country won't ban products made with slave or forced labor, your goods will sell at a premium at the U.S. border.
00:15:15.120Allies that have passed or committed to real forced labor bans like Canada, the EU, India, and the United Kingdom, they get the lower rate.0.66
00:15:24.500Countries that either look the other way or run dirty supply chains like China are going to have to pay the higher level.
00:15:34.500Now, this is Trump's new tariff approach, not just punishing cheap imports, but tying market access to human rights standards and using Section 301 of the Trade Act to lock it in long term.
00:15:48.560U.S. Trade Representative Jameson Greer made clear this is about leveling the playing field for American workers and reshoring supply chains that were built on exploited labor overseas.
00:16:01.200For the audience, one thing is clear. Tariffs aren't going away as long as Donald Trump is in office, and it directly affects those that are using child labor or forced labor in order to make cheap goods to sell to the American people.
00:16:17.960Now, let me know in the comments what you think about this. I think it's a smart move. I don't want to be buying stuff that was made by a slave. I don't want to be buying stuff that was made by a child.
00:16:30.160Yeah, I know countries are different, right?0.99
00:16:32.160Like things are just cheaper in China.
