Starting point is 00:00:00 In the past 24 hours, let me get this straight. Iran bombed a base in America. Trump said, Elamayo, you missed. This is Trump talking about, basically, so he set up last night. Israel and Iran came to me almost simultaneously and said, peace. I knew the time was now. The world and the Middle East are the real winners. Both nations will see tremendous love, peace, and prosperity.
Starting point is 00:00:30 In their futures, they have so much to gain and yet so much to lose if they stray from the road of righteousness and truth. The future for Israel and Iran is unlimited and filled with promise. God bless you both, right? So he goes and he says this shit, right? And I mean, if they stray from the path of righteousness and truth, how do you believe in Trump? Well, because it worked. That's the reason why. People believe in this guy because he does insane shit and somehow he comes out ahead.
Starting point is 00:01:04 That's the reason why. I mean, it shouldn't work. It shouldn't happen. There's no reason for this to happen. It defies all logic and rationality. No, it didn't. Well, no. Okay, so then, well, it didn't work though.
Starting point is 00:01:16 Well, now it is working again. So it didn't. Okay. So he says that there's a ceasefire. He's promising there's a ceasefire. Everybody's saying is that, you know, Trump should get the Nobel Peace Prize. everything is going really well. This was a moment. Now, we're hearing incredibly optimistic views coming out of the White House as far as how long
Starting point is 00:01:35 this can hold and what this is going to look like. Yes. That obviously still remains to be seen on the implementation side of this and waiting to see if the firing does stop and if Iran and Israel do both agree to this. Because, you know, speaking of the fluidity of the situation, it was just 24 hours ago that President Trump himself was suggesting a regime change in Iran was a possibility. And obviously right before that, having the United States strike Iran. And so, yes, there have been a lot of phone calls going back and forth. In part, this has to do with Iran's limited response earlier, where they fired on a U.S. base in Qatar.
Starting point is 00:02:08 But there were no casualties. We know that they did give a heads up that they were going to be firing on U.S. bases without exactly specifying which ones. How is it like, how do they just tell you like, yeah, we're going to bomb you, by the way? But that is the question here. Yeah, just by the way, it's going to happen. states felt that it did not need to respond to the Iranian retaliation. Did that create the space for this? That is what we've been hearing from administration officials. And so the question is whether or not this still holds for the next few hours. And so they're trying to second guess Donald, right?
Starting point is 00:02:39 They're saying like, oh, bro, this shit's not going to happen. Then in the middle of the broadcast, Caitlin, I've just got to been giving the word that Iran, according to a diplomat who briefed CNN, Iran has agreed to the ceasefire. So this is significant. I just want to try to learn some more information as soon as we get it about that. But if that is the case, that's incredibly significant. Wow. We were waiting. We had not heard from Iran. We had not heard from Israel. All we were going on so far has been the president's social media post, which was some two hours ago. So again, that is the first indication we have that Iran has agreed to this. Well, there we go. And so anyway,
Starting point is 00:03:20 this is how it is and everybody was happy and things were going very well. And so then right after that, obviously, oh, by the way, the House passed a bill to defund the Taliban. I don't know how that exactly happened. But, you know, that's where we're at. And so then there's this guy too. Iran has targeted U.S. military bases and U.S. service members in the Middle East, putting the lives, putting the lives of thousands of Americans at immediate risk. I join Americans. I pray for their safety. This afternoon, I asked the Trump administration to immediately provide a classified briefing, laying out the full threat picture, the intelligence behind Iran's retaliation,
Starting point is 00:04:06 and the details scope and timeline of the U.S. response. So he's very unhappy. More importantly, I've demanded they lay out exactly what measures they're taking right now to keep our service members safe. As I said Saturday night, Congress and the American people are owed answers. No president should be allowed to unilaterally march this nation into war with erratic threats, no strategy, no explanation. Man.
Starting point is 00:04:39 That's why I've called on Leader Thune to hold a vote immediately. That's crazy. To enforce the war powers resolution. Wow. Not even Obama. Well, no. Well, no. to consult with Congress. The Constitution demands it.
Starting point is 00:04:52 The American people, especially the families of those in harm's way, deserve nothing less. Confronting the Iranian regime's nuclear ambitions and stopping their campaign of terror. This is right when he's strength, resolve, and strategic clarity. Man. And so they're crashing out. They're mad about this, obviously. And anyway, so this last. for, I'd say like five minutes. And so after that, this is kind of what's interesting too, is that, let me go back over here. And big surprise, they violated immediately.
Starting point is 00:05:31 And you could tell that the ceasefire was going to get violated. How do you know the ceasefire was going to get violated? The reason why is because they were literally, like they put a timer on when the ceasefire was, and they were trying to bomb each other and like, fucking. get the last hit in before the timer runs out. Like, I mean, are you kidding me? Like, you really think this shit was going to stop? Like, what kind of bullshit? It's like a fucking video game. Yeah, they're like, okay, bro. All right, it's one, uh, it's one 52 and we've still got another. Okay, yeah, we've got eight more minutes. All right, send another one. No, it should
Starting point is 00:06:09 be fine. We'll tell Donald that we started whenever it happened and it just landed. It was a misfire, right? A delusional. Yeah, Tekken last round. Yeah, exactly. And so, So then finally, Trump finds out about this and he totally fucking crashes out. Like, he's so fucking mad. He's furious. He's out of his fucking mind. Trump, yeah, he even says Trump furious with Israel, Iran, faltering ceasefire as he leaves for the NATO summit.
Starting point is 00:06:36 And there we go. Look at his face. Is he happy? No, he's not. Coming from the region suggests that besides accuse each other for violating the ceasefire. I think both violated it. I don't think they, I'm not sure they did it intentionally. They couldn't rain people back.
Starting point is 00:06:53 I don't like the fact that Israel went out this morning at all. And I'm going to see if I can stop it. So as soon as I get away from you, I'm going to see if I can stop it, okay? So he's fucking pissed. I think it's been completely demolished. I think the reason we're here is because those pilots, those B2 pilots did an unbelievable job. And, you know, the fake news, like CNN in particular, they're trying to, you know, they're trying to say, well, I agree that it was destroyed, but maybe not that destroyed. You know what they're doing? They're really hurting great pilots that put their lives in the line.
Starting point is 00:07:32 CNN is scum, and so is MSDNC. They're all. And frankly, the networks aren't much better. It's all fake news, but they should not have done that. Yeah. Those pilots hit their targets. Those targets were obliterated, and the pilots should be given credit. They're not after the pilots are after me. They want to try and demean. Iran will never rebuild its nuclear program. Iran will never rebuild its nuclear. From there, absolutely not.
Starting point is 00:07:57 That place is under rock. That place is demolished. The B-2 pilots did their job. They did it better than anybody could even imagine. They hit late in the evening. It was dark with no moon. I mean, I got to say that they really did cook the shit out of them. They did.
Starting point is 00:08:15 like they had no idea that shit was even going to happen like i didn't even realize how badly they fucked up that site until i realized that the tunnel that had collapsed was like a mile away from the place that they had bombed and i was like oh oh so it's it it's it's done okay yeah got it it. That target with every one of those things and that place is gone. That's gone. But when I see CNN all night long, they're trying to say, well, maybe it wasn't really as demolished as we thought it was demolished.
Starting point is 00:08:55 You take a look at the pinpricks and you see that place is gone. And I will say, I think CNN ought to apologize to the pilots of the B-2s. I think that MSC ought to apologize. Oh. I think these guys really, these networks and these, uh, Cable networks are real losers. You really are. Real losers.
Starting point is 00:09:20 You're gutless losers. I'd say that to CNN, because I watch it. I have to call him gutless losers. Your gutless losers. I'd say that the Cs. Jesus, bro, he's sitting there talking shit. He mad as fuck. Then, because I watch it.
Starting point is 00:09:35 I have no choice. I got to watch that garbage. It's all garbage. It's all fake news. But I think CNN is that. a gutless group of people. And the people that run it, nobody even knows it's been sold so many times. But the people that run it ought to be a shame.
Starting point is 00:09:49 MSDNC, a guy named Brian Roberts. He heads it. He's a disgrace. He's a weak, pathetic disgrace. Jesus. He's just fucking pissed. Bro, he's just fucking pissed. God damn.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Do you believe that Iran is still committed to peace? Yeah, I do. They violated it, but Israel violated it, too. Israel as soon as we made the deal They came out and they dropped a load of bombs The likes of which I've never seen before The biggest load of- Of course he's fucking pissed
Starting point is 00:10:22 Yeah it's ridiculous That like oh we're gonna get a ceasefire in 12 hours Okay so the like the idea of that Is that like that doesn't mean Okay get your big ones in now boys Get the big ones in now Hey hey you won't have time later Drop them all right now
Starting point is 00:10:39 That we've seen I'm not happy with Israel. You know, when I say, okay, now you have 12 hours, you don't go out in the first hour and just drop everything you have on them. So I'm not happy with them. I'm not happy with Iran either. But I'm really unhappy if Israel's going out this morning because the one rocket that didn't land that was shot, perhaps by mistake that didn't land.
Starting point is 00:11:03 I'm not happy about that. You know what? We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard. that they don't know what the fuck they're doing. Do you understand that? Oh my god. Well, um, wow. And the thing is, he's completely right. He is. He's totally right. I think everybody feels this way. Yes. Wow. And does he actually just walk off after that? He actually just walks off. Wow. Holy fucking shit. The content friends Yep. Hey, that's right, guys. Wow. Jesus. You pissed off the wrong dude? Yeah. And so that's pretty much what happened. And is fresh here president say things we're all feeling instead of being politically correct? Yep. And that was the end of it. Oh, my fucking God. Yeah. I'm not happy with Iran either. But I'm really unhappy if isn't.
Starting point is 00:12:37 was going out this morning because one rocket that didn't land that was shot perhaps by mistake that didn't land i'm not happy about that you know what we have we basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing do you understand that absolute fucking cinema oh my god wow and uh do you understand that yes bro that's That's like a directed by Michael Bay moment. I cannot wait for that. I'm pretty sure people have probably already edit that in already. Now we're talking good stuff.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Yes, he just literally walks off after that. And I think it is hilarious. You're going to watch the live footage of Trump arriving at the NATO summit? Of course. I mean, absolutely, like right now, I mean, things are really kind of crazy. And let's see, is he here? No, not yet. Nobody knows what's happening.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Yep, they're all waiting on them. And we'll see what he says when he gets here. And nah, bro, it's a Jojo's roundabout moment. It's just going to continue. You think it's going to continue? You could be right. And well, anyway, so he said now, so the ceasefire is now back on. If you can believe this. So let me go and see if I can pull this up and show you again. So we need a comparison between Biden walking away and Trump walking away. Yeah. Whereas, because he said now that the ceasefire. has happened once more. And where is it going? What Biden did to this country. Okay, Biden is bad. Both Israel and Iran wanted to stop the war equally. It was my great honor to destroy all nuclear facilities and capability and then stop the war. So basically, they broke the ceasefire. They violated it. And then he got really, really fucking mad. And oh, he makes this massive fucking twit longer post about AOC. Look at the, he's going crazy about this, talking shit about her. Yeah, ceasefire fatigue.
Starting point is 00:14:54 I can guarantee a war's not over. I mean, who the fuck knows? It's impossible to know. Heading to Nato, we're at the worst. It'll be much calmer period than when I went through with Israel and Iran. Yeah, Iran will never rebuild their nuclear facilities. Israel is not going to attack Iran. All planes will turn around and head home while doing a friendly plane.
Starting point is 00:15:15 wave to Iran. Nobody will be hurt. The ceasefire is in effect. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Donald J. Trump, president of the United States. And so, Israel, do not drop those bombs. Bro, what universe are we living in? This is insane. Do not drop those bombs. If you do, it's a major violation bring your pilots home now donald j trump oh the ceasefire is now in effect please do not violate it oh wow tweeting out photos of himself saying that he was right about everything uh yep there we go um is there anything else here iran and they said peace or this is the one that we saw before so right now i'm gonna be honest with you guys, I don't know. I think that the ceasefire is in effect now. I think so. I'm not even sure. I don't even know. I have no idea. And so it is, it is. I think so, yes, right? I give it 12 hours, to be
Starting point is 00:16:31 honest. It is in effect. Okay, it is in effect. And yeah, this is insane. Obviously, Israel is the problem. I mean, they bombed them. Yeah, Israel should not have done that. It's not even a question. but yeah we basically have two countries that have been fighting I didn't know this was the end of the interview so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing
Starting point is 00:16:54 do you understand that oh my god what a world that we're in and so there it is Iran got probably their most successful strike towards the end unfortunately well then they got to stop I mean Israel got a lot of good ones on them too
Starting point is 00:17:13 so yeah Trump says he is quote really unhappy with Israel uh oh he is not happy with Israel oh man so nobody knows what's going to happen now
Starting point is 00:17:30 yeah one of the reasons why Israel dropped the bomb was because Iran launched the missiles and killed at least three people minutes before the ceasefire yeah they've both killed a bunch of people they both have like it's happened a lot like if they just keep doing that back and forth it's never going to end. Let's be honest, right? I mean, this has been an ongoing war for years. It's not like, okay, well, we're going to do one more bombing and then we're going to be even.
Starting point is 00:17:53 No, their last bombing was to make them even. And so now you're bombing, now you're one ahead of them. And so now they have to bomb you. But then from your perspective, now they're one ahead of you. So you've got to bob them. And it's like, no, it never fucking stops. It never fucking stops. And that's the thing. So eventually, somebody has to stop shooting the bombs. Somebody has to stop shooting them. And Israel getting the last word of... Yes, this is crazy. Firing off bombs with minutes
Starting point is 00:18:25 before the ceasefire. Like, that is the most bad faith thing that I've ever heard in my fucking life. It's like, yeah, guys, we're gonna have a ceasefire. Real quick, real quick. Hey, we got 10 minutes? They take eight minutes for them to get there? Fire them now. Go, go, go, quick.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Yeah, there it is. my little brother has to try to get the last word in. Yes, exactly. We begin this morning with a Fox News alert. Israel now ordering the IDF to respond forcefully after claiming Iran violated their ceasefire agreement. The IDF saying missiles were launched from Iran after the midnight deadline imposed by President Trump. In just the last few minutes, Israel ordering high intensity strikes against regime targets in the heart of Tehran. And this violation of the deal comes less than an hour before. for the president of the United States is expected to leave for the naked.
Starting point is 00:19:17 Can you imagine how fucking annoying that would be? Like, imagine you're Donald Trump and you like, you go to bed. You like, all right, I finally, I achieved world peace again. And I'm going to get the Nobel Prize. You wake up. I'm out of my fucking mind. Fox and friends first on a Tuesday morning that is moving very, very rapidly. I'm Todd Pirate.
Starting point is 00:19:44 And I'm Carla Schimketz. Let's get right to Mike Tobin with the very latest on the ground in Israel. And Mike, here we go again. Well, things are moving very fast, Carly and Todd. Iranian State TV now denies that the Iranian government of the Iranian military was responsible for those one or two missiles. Can you imagine a phone call that happened between probably the two or the three of them? I don't know if it was all three of them at the same time or, you know, each of them separately. Can you imagine how bad that probably was?
Starting point is 00:20:17 Into Israel's north. We're still looking to confirm the specific number on that. That missile was intercepted and landed without injury, but not without consequence. As you mentioned, the Israel's defense minister and the chief of general staff have now vowed fierce retaliation for the violation of a ceasefire that wasn't quite four hours old when those missiles came in the north of Israel. But again, Iran is denying that they took part of that. Now, as the ceasefire was preparing to take hold about five waves of ballistic missiles came in from Iran, one of them hit down here in Bersheva. when I'm standing right now, and as we look behind me, you can see what looks like the impact site from that missile is indeed the impact site from the missile. You can see the rescue crews right now going through the rubble, searching for any possible people who are trapped in the rubble.
Starting point is 00:21:03 It should be mentioned that no one is missing right now. They're just operating out of abundance of caution. One of the things I've seen the rescuers doing today is forming up. So it's not a ceasefire. I think that it was actually something as stupid as Iran launched the missiles when there wasn't. to ceasefire and they hit after the ceasefire. Like, it's it's so stupid
Starting point is 00:21:24 you, you can't even imagine like, this is like, it's like, yeah, buzzer Peter, yes. It's like space jam where somebody makes the half court shot. And the time runs out.
Starting point is 00:21:46 And it's a three pointer and they win the game. Yes. Bession Bucket Brigade carrying rubble out of that building just to clear as much space as they can. Now, we do know that a family of four was inside of the bomb shelter. That bomb shelter took a direct hit. Here is a spokesman from Homefront Command. That's Israel's like the base.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Currently, the family was inside the shelter. Yeah. And unfortunately, when we have a direct hit, a direct strike of a missile in the shelter, it did not always help. It doesn't help. You heard it here first, guys. A direct missile hit to the shelter does not help. That's a fact. So those bomb rooms do a good job of protecting people in the blast radius,
Starting point is 00:22:34 but when you have a powerful warhead like the one that came down here, and it takes a direct hit, all four of those people, Paris. There's an additional 26 people who were injured by the force of that blast, and their injuries vary. So we're watching the situation. When these missiles were fired, The Israeli fighter jets were in the air over Iran. They detected the missile launches and struck back at least some of those missile launchers.
Starting point is 00:22:59 So that has taken place all today. But the situation now, of course, is very fragile with Israel's defense minister and the chief of general staff vowing to strike back at Iran for what they say is a flagrant violation of the ceasefire. Iran now says they didn't do it. You could be looking to one of the other rogue elements, a rogue element inside of Iran or one of the other proxies. a chance that it was just a miscommunication or somebody fucked up. I mean, it seems like Iran, like, is full of like the people that run the
Starting point is 00:23:28 military at least are fucking morons, right? Like, I mean, that's how they just keep getting themselves killed. And so, like, this definitely, it could have been a fuck. It absolutely could have been a fuck up. That are operating in the region. Guys back to. I mean, really.
Starting point is 00:23:42 And, Mike, what I'm hearing you say is at least one. Because, again, they're all new to the job because the people that were on the job before then were dead. So it's like, yeah, you've only been. You've only been doing this for like six days and you just found out you, oh, I violated the international cease. Oh, I got the wrong time zone. Achi, goji.
Starting point is 00:24:05 Oh. Oh. Missile was intercepted after the ceasefire went into effect, but Iran is denying that it took part in that. So if not Iran, then who? Correct. One missile. They said they didn't do it. Sorry, my earpiece is going in and out, but at least one missile was intercepted.
Starting point is 00:24:26 No injuries reported on the ground. The tops of the Israeli military saying that the ceasefire has been violated and saying that they'll respond. All right. Mike Tobin live for us in Israel, Mike, we will check back in with you as warranted. With that, let us bring in former Deputy National Security Advisor and Heritage Foundation Vice President of National Security, Victoria Coates. We all cry. Asma was one of the few people, didn't cry World War III, and Trump's a tool for Israel and just called it for what it is. Remember this next time peak? Yeah, I was right about everything. And it was obvious what Trump did. Trump planned this out because you have to keep in mind. And so this is an important part of analysis. I think a lot of people, most people don't remember anything, right? And so like they might not remember what happened is that that Operation Midnight Hammer where the B-2 bombers blew up all of the nuclear sites, this was war-gamed by Israel and Biden. This was in 2024. So this entire, well,
Starting point is 00:25:21 Like the foundation for this is not new at all. Trump knew that they had this planned out before he went to the Middle East. And so what I think happened is that Trump knew that he had this planned out. He went to the Middle East. He went to all of these other countries. He created a lot of trade relationships with them, established diplomatic, you know, like, you know, rapport. And now it's like, okay, now we're friends with Saudi Arabia. And now we're friends with Qatar.
Starting point is 00:25:50 bro like Syria is flying him in with like all these jets he's meeting with the old ISIS leader and now they're boys and you know he's saying how attractive the guy is you know everything's great everything's are good and then so the only person who wasn't invited to that party was Iran Iran wasn't at the party and you know he was like yeah maybe we can try to get them but we'll see what happens then he goes and he attacks the what do you call it he attacks these military bases and obviously you you know, like, or he attacks the nuclear sites. This was bad. And everybody condemned, they were like, oh, this is bad. Everybody's thoughts and prayers. But then whenever Iran attacked the military base, the American military base in Qatar, Qatar said, what the fuck are you doing attacking us? What the fuck are you doing sending missiles over to us now? Because Trump had already established that diplomatic relationship from being over there in the first place, because, again, he knew this was going to happen. That's what I think it was. And he had, like, this is not even a 500 IQ play. He, like, again, all of this was laid out in front of him before he even took office. You see,
Starting point is 00:27:05 you see kind of how all this fits together. It was all planned with Qatar. It was. You heard Mike Tobin say Iran is denying that their government was responsible for these strikes. But assuming that that is not correct, assuming that the Iranian government is ultimately responsible, is this a mere hiccup? Can the ceasefire be saved? Or has Iran potentially crossed a red line from which they cannot come back? There's a lot of people that, again, the reason why a lot of people get mad is that they don't think about situations as they occur. They think about situations as they imagine them. And I think that a lot of people have imagined scenarios in their mind, and those imagined scenarios end up superseding reality. And so for a lot of these people, it ends up being a, like, they're like, oh, but this is like the Iraq War, this is like this other thing, but it's the Jews or something like that. And all of this is an abstraction from the current situation. So fundamentally,
Starting point is 00:28:15 these people are operating in a principle that's not relevant. relevant to the topic. That's really what's happening. Well, Todd, unfortunately, this is the kind of messy period that generally happens around a ceasefire where a side that is typically on the losing side is going to try to get a little bit more. They're going to try to have a last strike, something for domestic consumption that they can say that they, you know, are still powerful. And we've seen what Iran is capable of. What they do is. And Iran can't look weak because they're, regime is almost about to collapse anyway. They're about to flop over anyway. So the last thing
Starting point is 00:28:59 that they need is to look like they don't have any teeth. Because if that happens, then suddenly people stormed the building of the government and then they're all dead. So they can't let that happen. Fire at apartment buildings, at families, sheltering and bomb shelters. This is this is hardly the stuff of a great military victory. Israel, on the other hand, is flying with impunity over Tehran right now. And I'm sure we'll take another strike on a strategic target, something like the missile launchers that will prevent Iran from doing this again. But it doesn't take away from what President Trump... How do you know Iran's about to collapse? Because all of their leadership has been killed. The main person that is the figurehead of their leadership is about to die.
Starting point is 00:29:45 He's 86. And also the approval rating of that leadership government is in... It's below 20%. literally every single, every single thing points towards it falling apart. He's achieved, which is that he's gotten both sides to agree to a ceasefire. It is time to end this war and consolidate Israel's and America's gains. So you think that despite this, despite the fact that Israel is claiming that Iran launched a missile into Israel, and they're saying that the ceasefire is off, do you think that, like Todd said, Could this be a hiccup? Could things proceed more peacefully in the hours to come? Well, Carly, I never want to refer to the death of the family of four as a hiccup.
Starting point is 00:30:38 I mean, that's, I just, we have to be mindful of the seriousness of that. Yeah, and Victoria, understood on that point, the death of the family took place and horrible that it happened. It took place before the official ceasefire went into effect, and now that it was, and now we're in a new world where every party agreed to a ceasefire. a missile was launched. So how does very different situation forward? Well, I think that we can proceed forward if the situation calms down, if Israel does take a retaliatory strike, and then we can get back to the ceasefire because I think Israel has achieved largely their war game, their war aims. That's what they said last night. And so I think if the president gets involved, if Iran understands the seriousness of the situation and that both Israel and the United States are prepared to go back in
Starting point is 00:31:31 if they don't start behaving more rationally. Yeah, I cannot imagine the president is happy with these latest developments out of Israel. How should President Trump respond? Well, I think President Trump will respond decisively. I mean, I think he's... Good call. Yep. Good call. Going to make very clear to the Iranians, these are the terms. They are in an extremely weak position.
Starting point is 00:32:03 Israel and the United States can act, as I said, with impunity against them. And so it is beholden on Iran now to start becoming a more responsible partner here. They have been given every opportunity, both before this war started, to engage in diplomacy, and now the president yesterday, offering them the opportunity to come to the table and come to terms. Now, his patience, as we've discovered, is not infinite. So this better shut down now, and they better come to the table Trump is right. CNN and MSNBC are unbelievable. Glad you're watching Fox now. Well, we might watch something from CNN or MSNBC later on.
Starting point is 00:32:40 But the reality is that a lot of the, this is a big issue that a lot of like, I think people that are anti-Trump have is that they would rather a world war break out than for Trump to collect a W. Like, that's what it feels like to me at least, that these people celebrate and are happy when one of these ceasefires falls through. They're happy when, you know, a negotiation fails. And the ultimate reality of that is people get killed and it's death and destruction, ultimately, right? It's bad. And I find that to be very, I think it's just gross. It's weird, man. It's very weird.
Starting point is 00:33:20 And, like, even when, you know, like, when Biden was the president, you know, you should still hope and support the president. Like, I still supported Biden as the president. I didn't want Biden to fail, right? because if Biden fails, that means we all do, at least not we. There's a lot of people here that aren't in the U.S. Like, I'm an American. That means I fail too. And so it's very, very weird, weird perspective to have.
Starting point is 00:33:41 I hate that. ...mood to make concessions so that we can get to the end of this war. Yeah, and President Trump is going to be leaving for the NATO summit in just a few hours. What will the conversation during the NATO summit be surrounding all of this? Well, I think it's going to be about the need for NATO to take. take a lot of responsibility for what's happening in Europe. This is a big demonstration of all of the obligations the United States has around the world, not just in Ukraine, also in the Middle East, also in the Pacific.
Starting point is 00:34:14 So I think the president is going to go back to one of his signature issues, which is making the rest of NATO pay its fair share for the defense of the alliance. And we have the top 10 economies in NATO, the top economy being the United States. The other nine are clinging at 2 percent of G. to defense, not the 3.5 they need to be at. They're not even close. If they're not paying the money that they're supposed to be paying, then that's a problem, bro. Like, I don't even see how this is a question. Like, what do you mean? Like, so you're supposed to have this agreement and we need to protect you, but like you're not putting your money
Starting point is 00:34:49 in. We have to put arm, what the fuck is going on? Like, I mean, really, this is insane. So I think he's going to be laying down the law there. Pulling in the UK are paying? If NATO is going to proceed into the 21st century, My understanding is that Spain is one of the ones that isn't paying, and I think it could also be Germany, but I could be wrong about Germany. I don't think that I'm wrong about Spain, though. To be relevant, it has to literally have cash on the barrelhead here. We don't want pledges. We don't want some sort of projection of maybe getting to 2% in three or four years.
Starting point is 00:35:22 We want them to pay up now. Assuming for arguments saying that their government is responsible for these strikes and not some proxy group like Mike Tobin alluded, could be the case in light of the fact that Iran is denying that they are involved in this. Did Iran pick this timing in order to embarrass President Trump as he heads to NATO? And if so, how big of a miscalculation is that? Well, I don't know how... I mean, I don't think they tried to embarrass them. I'm going to be honest.
Starting point is 00:35:53 I really don't think so. Because if they did, I mean, this is the guy that, I mean, he already bombed your nuclear sites with the fucking B-2 bombers. Do you really want to fuck with this guy again? And this is the guy that the day after the 60 days of the negotiations, everybody who negotiated with him was dead. Do you really want to fuck with this guy? I don't even know if they would do that. I'd be surprised if they did.
Starting point is 00:36:16 If it was in terms of embarrassing the president, I would say that it was a miscalculation on the part of Iran if they were responsible. It's kind of this, as I said, this gray zone around the establishment of a ceasefire that is, It can be kind of a difficult period. But I think the key is for him to send the message to the Iranians that this is unacceptable. If they want to get to diplomacy, they're going to have to start acting responsibly. And otherwise, you know, he's going to take the gloves back off and let the Israelis go back in. And this is the statement from the Defense Minister, Israel Katz. I have instructed the IDF to respond forcefully to Iran's violation of the ceasefire with high-intensity strikes against regime targets in the heart of
Starting point is 00:37:03 So with that, would you say that the war is officially back on right now? No, there's no way. Well, let's see what the Israelis actually do. I think some targeted strikes in response to this would be proportionate. And then the ball goes back into the Iranians court. So I think we'll see what the next couple of hours bring. But this was not a good move on the part of the Iranians. But I do think the ceasefire is recoverable.
Starting point is 00:37:30 And finally, Todd alluded to it. But Israel is saying that one missile was intercepted and Iran is denying that they took part in it. Could it have been a proxy and not an Iranian strike or is Israel able to tell and determine? Here's the thing, right? If it's one missile, Iran said they didn't do it. I'd give them the benefit of the doubt. I would because it's just cleaner than just, you know, than just continuing to go and go and go and go. that this was coming from Iranian airspace.
Starting point is 00:38:06 Well, if we haven't figured that out yet, Carly, we will be able to figure out in pretty short order. And I would be a little bit surprised because the Iranian proxies have been remarkable for their silence over the course of this 12-day war. Yeah, they've been real quiet. Here I'll go ahead. We'll watch this. Here we go. Let's see it. There he is.
Starting point is 00:38:38 No. Mr. President, please. One big turn. And that's it. He just did not give a fuck.
