Legal AF by MeidasTouch - Trump Makes Intel Mistake of Nuclear Proportions

Episode Date: June 21, 2025

Trump and his intelligence community has lost track of the equivalent of 10 Nuclear Bombs worth of Iranian enriched uranium, as Trump’s failure to plan ahead and allow us to be backed into a Middle ...East war not on our timetable, reaches devastating proportions. Michael Popok reports on the inspection community just “losing track” of the entire Iran enriched uranium stockpile as Trump tries to flip the script on his legacy by dragging us into a war.

Donald Trump's lost track of the uranium enriched in Iran that's capable of making 10 nuclear bombs. You heard me right. The international inspectors and therefore Donald Trump
Starting point is 00:02:27 do not know where 409 kilograms, the entirety of the Iranian stockpile for uranium, enough to make 10 bombs, they don't know where it is. Because the war started without proper planning, Donald Trump backing us into a war with Iran on Israel's timetable, not the United States' timetable, as Donald Trump tries to scramble to catch up with his two weeks, another two weeks, just need two more weeks to figure it all out. Why don't you figure out where the 10 potential bombs are?
Starting point is 00:02:58 I read that in a news reporting, and it was kind of buried in the middle of the article that the international inspection community has lost middle of the article that the international inspection community has lost track of the uranium that makes bombs or could be easily upgraded from the 60% enriched to 90% enriched it needs to make a bomb. I'm like, why isn't that the headline? And it just goes to show you what what what these two they're like twins separated at birth Netanyahu and Trump, they're both trying to change their legacies, right?
Starting point is 00:03:26 They both have terrible legacies. You know, you've got the Hamas attack killing thousands when Israel was caught with its pants down on the 7th of October under Netanyahu, who was about to go to jail for fraud. And then you've got his counterpart separated at birth, you know, brothers from different mothers. Donald Trump with his criminal first term,
Starting point is 00:03:48 his criminal second term, his abuse of power second term and first term, his impeachments. Hey, I know how to fix it. I'll solve the Middle East crisis by bombing our way out of it. That's what we're watching. Even the right right wing is saying, what happened to America first? Why are we fighting that we fighting that war note to people that think that Republicans support Israel see Marjorie Taylor Green's comments
Starting point is 00:04:11 But where is the missing 10 killer 10 bombs effectively? I'm Michael Popak You're on the Midas Touch Network and legal AF. This is not getting enough press The International Atomic Energy Agency Agency had been inspecting up until the 13th of June about 500 times a year in Iran. They may be our enemy and they may be hiding the ball, but they were allowing in a lot of inspectors. That's why the inspectors had one view about how close Iran was to making a nuclear bomb. Israel had another, which was like in a month. And the intelligence community under Donald Trump led by Tulsi Gabbard of all things.
Starting point is 00:04:49 She said they were at least a year away relying on more of the International Atomic Energy Agency's inspection reports. We're there now because Trump sided with Netanyahu and his intelligence over Tulsi Gabbard. Let's put a pin in that. We're going to follow that. Tulsi Gabbard. Let's put a pin in that, we're gonna follow that. Tulsi Gabbard's probably not long for this administration because Donald Trump doesn't even trust her
Starting point is 00:05:11 as the intelligence agent and doesn't trust John Ratliff as the head of the CIA. Not if he's relying on the Mossad instead in Israel. Once the bombing started, without our approval apparently, or without our involvement, and nobody thought to ask, hey, what about the 409 kilograms of enriched uranium? Where's that these days? So it put a chill down my spine, as you can imagine,
Starting point is 00:05:37 when I see the interview with the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, and he says the following, Rafael Monaco Gross, the reporter asked him, do you know right now where those about 16 small canisters are? And he said, I'm not so sure. How is that not the headline? See mainstream news is so glossed over with Trump fatigue. They don't know what's news and what isn't.
Starting point is 00:06:03 I do. I do. That's big news. Where is it? How do we get it back? That's the leverage that Iran has over these negotiations. There's about nine different facilities that make up the nuclear complex of Iran. And their war with Iraq kind of informed them on how to build bombs and hide things and put things deep in bunkers underground. The three main hubs of that nuclear facility is Natanz, which is a uranium enrichment facility, Isfahan Nuclear Technology and Research Center, which is like their lab, and Fadro, which is the hardened facility 100 meters deep below the rock in a mountain, which we can't get to and the Israelis can't get to
Starting point is 00:06:49 without the mother of all bomb bunker busters being dropped from a giant American aircraft. So I had an old buddy from law school came to crash at my place after we had moved to Florida. I hadn't seen him in years. First thing he says is, wait, where's the cat? I thought you were a cat guy now. I was like, she's here.
Starting point is 00:07:08 She's just not triggering your allergies anymore, thanks to Pacagen. This episode is sponsored by Pacagen. That's P-A-C-A-G-E-N, pronounced Pacagen. And listen, cat allergies are brutal. Almost one in five people have them, and most allergy fixes either don't work or come with side effects. But Pac packaging isn't a treatment for your allergies. It works on the allergens around
Starting point is 00:07:30 your home, breaking them down so your body never has to deal with them in the first place. Cats groom themselves constantly. Their saliva is basically allergen central. That's why packaging's whisker block protein is genius. It binds to and neutralizes those cat allergens without harsh chemicals. You just spray it every few days and breathe easier. It's safe. It works. And it's science backed literally

There has been some damage since the 13th of June on at least three out of the nine that I just described,
Starting point is 00:08:23 mainly whatever is above ground and electrical. Now, could it have damaged the centrifuges, which are necessary, the thousands of them, to enrich uranium deep below the surface because the electrical power grid was cut off? Yes and no. Israel did a good job about five years ago without shedding any blood and taking any civilians
Starting point is 00:08:48 of injecting into the computer systems of Iran, a computer worm, I think it was uploaded through a thumb drive that they placed there. And it controlled the centrifuges main panels and sent them spinning in the wrong direction or off kilter, ruining the centrifuges, the centrifuges main panels and sent them spinning in the wrong direction or off kilter, ruining the centrifuges. And it's set back, they think that act alone, that sabotage of cybersecurity set back the Iranian process
Starting point is 00:09:16 by two or three years until we got to today. So centrifuges are a delicate thing, but you got to think that they learned and they have redundant systems of electricity and electrical power. So by some reports based on the satellites, we've only set back the Iranians or the Israelis have by half a year, you know,
Starting point is 00:09:36 unless we get below ground with bombs that are made in America and not available as of yet to the Israelis. That purportedly is the decision that Donald Trump is making over the quote-unquote next two weeks. But in the meantime, that's two weeks too much for me for the equivalent of 10 nuclear bombs that nobody knows where they are. And that's Iran's ultimate leverage. So when we watch a president who is motivated by his legacy by trying to be a wartime president,
Starting point is 00:10:09 joining forces with somebody who's equally criminal and equally fraudulent in Israel, in Netanyahu, who has to clean up his own act because of what happened and his reputation in tatters based on his fraud investigation and criminal prosecution, and what happened with Hamas killing Israelis and kidnapping them. Look out when that when that tail wags that dog. We're all in trouble.
Starting point is 00:10:37 And that's where watching this combination. Of Netanyahu and Trump. And as I said, Israel doesn't lift a finger against Hezbollah in Lebanon, against Hamas in Gaza, against Iran in Iran, without the US government telling them it's okay. Stay quiet on the phone, if you will.
Starting point is 00:11:01 And so don't believe any of this reporting about, it's not that Trump was caught with his pants down, it's that there was no forethought and no planning around it. And that's why we have 10 potential missing nuclear bombs. I'm going to continue to cover it all. You're here on the Midas Touch Network. We just rolled the odometer together to 5 million. And now we're working over on Legal AF, the YouTube channel,
Starting point is 00:11:23 where we're going to get to 700,000 in the next day or so on our way to 1 million. You always remember your first million. If you weren't around for the beginning of the Midas Touch build, I mean, I was there, I think we had 330, come over to Legal AF. We could use another brick in the wall in continuing to build what we're doing over there.
