00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody. I'm John Fossett with this Great America Show midday update for Monday, June 29th.
00:00:04.700 Happy Monday, folks. I hope you all had a great weekend.
00:00:07.600 Your days and your weeks are off to a wonderful start, an eventful weekend,
00:00:12.160 as usually in the news business, an eventful week for news, I'm sure, upcoming.
00:00:19.080 Iran and the United States have agreed once again to pause the attacks and engage in talks this week
00:00:23.920 after the United States launched strikes against multiple targets in Tehran,
00:00:27.740 leading to Iran, launching retaliatory strikes on Bahrain and Kuwait, according to recent reports.
00:00:34.140 Senior U.S. official confirming to Axios that the two countries had made yet another agreement,
00:00:39.360 and they plan to meet tomorrow in Qatar.
00:00:42.160 The fighting between the two countries reportedly comes as a result of competing interpretations of the Memorandum of Understanding,
00:00:49.600 which, of course, both countries signed just last week.
00:00:53.620 The difference of interpretations of the agreement between the two countries is related to, of course, the Strait of Hormuz.
00:00:59.440 The U.S. senior official explained that the U.S. has decided to stop all kinetic activity.
00:01:05.520 It's also being reported that one of the points in the MOU regarding the Strait of Hormuz states that the U.S. will begin the removal of the Navy blockade and any disturbances or impediments against the IRGC.
00:01:17.960 So, once again, folks, you hear us say it often here,
00:01:22.620 we're just going to have to wait and see what happens
00:01:24.780 as yet another scuffle between the U.S. and Iran has ensued.
00:01:30.860 Some new polling out today, and if you folks haven't already figured it out,
00:01:33.860 we've got our latest indication that the Marxist Dem Party is outright anti-American.
00:01:39.720 A new survey out from Elon University found that a majority of Democrats
00:01:43.740 would prefer living in another country rather than the United States.
00:01:47.700 According to this disturbing poll, 55% of Democrats answered yes
00:01:51.520 when they were asked whether there is another country
00:01:54.100 where they would rather live today than the United States.
00:01:57.020 Now, on the other hand, only 10% of Republicans answered that question.
00:02:01.660 I could probably figure out who they are.
00:02:03.600 Maybe Thomas Massey, Tom Tillis, John Cornyn,
00:02:06.800 just to name a few off the top of my head.
00:02:09.920 It's a good time to remind the left that no one is forcing them to live here.
00:02:13.740 And if they hate this country so much, they're more than welcome to take their stuff and leave.
00:02:18.840 These poll findings should be a concern to all Americans as they indicate what we've all long suspected,
00:02:24.160 that currently only one political party loves this country,
00:02:27.420 and that only one political party is ruling in the best interest of this country,
00:02:32.700 and it's certainly not the Marxist Dems.
00:02:35.200 Some good news on the business side of things for the World Cup.
00:02:38.880 Soccer and NFL stadiums, it turns out, is very good for business.
00:02:42.020 With 60 matches played and 44 to go, the 2026 World Cup has already broken all-time World Cup record attendance.
00:02:50.940 USA Today is reporting that over 3.6 million fans have attended the matches throughout this afternoon,
00:02:58.780 despite some issues with empty seats.
00:03:01.620 The 60 matches played to date have seen a 99.7% capacity.
00:03:06.020 capacity. Prior World Cup tennis record set in 1994 with 3.5, just over 3.5 million fans. So
00:03:14.000 good news for America and good news for the business in America, which as President Trump
00:03:19.600 says, America is indeed open for business. Rhino Tom Tillis, he's at it again while millions of
00:03:26.360 Americans are still demanding real accountability for the weaponization of government under the
00:03:30.720 Biden administration, Senate Republican, Republican in air quote, that is Tom Tillis,
00:03:36.500 is playing both sides of the aisle, as he usually does, insisting the controversial
00:03:41.260 anti-weaponization fund must permanently be killed with extra steps, yet actively helping
00:03:46.700 Democrats block basic election integrity and any measure that would help secure elections.
00:03:53.660 Total joke, I guess he's all in favor of another 2020-style election installation project
00:04:00.040 happening. In the Capitol Hill press gaggle this week, Tillis made it clear that he doesn't fully
00:04:04.820 trust Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and his verbal assurances that the $1.776 billion fund
00:04:11.560 is dead. So what is he doing? He wants all types of assurances from Blanche in return for his
00:04:21.920 support for the Save America Act or his support to confirm him as Attorney General. This is Tom
00:04:29.660 Tillis, folks, this is the man that we've all been dealing with over the course of the last
00:04:34.200 few years, a man who thinks he holds the cards, but he doesn't. He's soon going to realize once
00:04:40.880 he's gone, he held no cards and nobody's going to care that he was ever there. Folks, please be sure
00:04:47.160 to join us tonight and each and every night for The Great America Show, Rumble, YouTube, Twitter,

00:04:56.620 America show. I'm John Fosso with this great America show midday update. Have a great rest
