Starting point is 00:00:22 free of charge. BetMGM operates pursuant to an operating agreement with Eye Gaming, Ontario. When Westcham first took flight in 1996, The vibes were a bit different. People thought denim on denim was peak fashion. Inline skates were everywhere, and two out of three women rocked, the Rachel. While those things stayed in the 90s, one thing that hasn't is that fuzzy feeling you get when WestJet welcomes you on board. Here's to Westjetting since 96.
Starting point is 00:00:48 Travel back in time with us and actually travel with us at westjet.com slash 30 years. All right, everybody, when J.D. Vance and Donald Trump said ceasefire, they mean the United States was going to cease firing. and in return, Iran was going to continue to control the Strait of Hormuz and close it down at its own will. We have dug ourselves into a deeper and deeper hole with no off-ramp, and now J.D. Vance is so tied to this war that I do believe his 2028 chances are dropping by the day. Donald Trump seems to be spiraling and losing his mind, and now Jady Vance just blew up on himself. Yesterday, he made a promise on camera about the Israelis, saying the Israelis have offered the check themselves in Lebanon in order to tone down and de-escalate this war. It seems like the Trump administration is firing in all cylinders desperately, desperately trying in any way to get the Israelis to tone down their strikes, but Israel continues, therefore, breaking the ceasefire almost immediately.
Starting point is 00:01:52 And then, of course, Iran returned fire, then Lebanon returned fire. It became a whole mess, but Lebanon is getting hit uniquely hard. They have had thousands and thousands of civilian casualties, which is despicable. Dan Hodges points out, the reality of what happened is now clear. Trump ramped up the rhetoric to hysterical levels. Again, Iran called his bluff. Again, he needed an off-ramp, so he asked Pakistan to negotiate it. They agreed to Iran's terms.
Starting point is 00:02:20 Then he completely invented different terms to try and save face. It's childish. It's infantile. I almost can't believe this is the foreign policy of the United States. We have an infantile president who's throwing a tantrum on the world stage in threatening genocide, then backing off when he realizes that he could find an off ramp by agreeing to all of Iran's points. And listen, Iran's points, it's not that a ceasefire on Iran's terms is necessarily bad. It's that Iran's specific terms said they get perpetual control of the Strait of Formuz,
Starting point is 00:02:54 which legitimizes a form of ruling, where any country with a coast can just point missiles off that coast and control shipping. It's a return to the world order of 150 years ago pre-NATO when things were much, much worse. And here's Donald Trump wanting to legitimize that as he has this entire time. Let's break this down. Let's break down J.D. Vance getting immediately undermined by our allies in Israel. And we'll walk through all of this in a steady-handed manner. Make sure you drop a like.
Starting point is 00:03:22 Make sure you're subscribed to the Adam Mockler feed. We are so close to 2 million subscribers. that's because of you all. We're building a beautiful, healthy pro-democracy community. Let's waste no time and jump in with this clip of J.D. Vance, detailing how the Israelis have offered to check themselves in Lebanon, then I'll show you what's actually happening in Lebanon. Then I'll show you what's actually happening to the deal that Trump was running victory laps about. There seems to be a disagreement about whether Lebanon was included in this proposal. And the speaker of the parliament, you're going to sit across from the table from in Islamabad.
Starting point is 00:03:52 It's just said that he thinks negotiations would be unreasonable while that were, ongoing. So would you ask Israel to hold off strikes to allow some states for these talks? Well, first of all, I know there's been some conversations between the Israelis and the leadership of our country today. I haven't been involved in that because I've been busy doing stuff in Hungary. I'm actually supposed to get an update when I get on the plane. But let me say a couple things. First of all, I actually think, and there's a lot of bad faith negotiation and a lot of bad faith propaganda going on, I think this comes from a legitimate misunderstanding. I think the Iranians thought that the ceasefire included Lebanon, and it just didn't.
Starting point is 00:04:29 We never made that promise. We never indicated that was going to be the case. What we said is that the ceasefire would be focused on Iran, and the ceasefire would be focused on America's allies, both Israel and the Gulf Arab states. Now, that said, the Israelis, as I understand it, again, I'm supposed to get a fuller report when I get on the plane, have actually offered to be, frankly,
Starting point is 00:04:50 to check themselves a little bit in Lebanon because they want to make sure that our negotiation is successful. Well, guess what? J.D. Vance was immediately made to look silly, as he always does, because Israel, right after this, committed war crimes in Lebanon. And I'm not exaggerating there. French President Emmanuel Macron on Wednesday criticized recent Israeli strikes in Lebanon, which had put the U.S. Iranian ceasefire on a shaky ground and said he's spoken with his leaders. Macron said he had just spoken with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Prime Minister Nawaf Salam. Quote, I expressed France's full solidarity in the face of the indiscriminate strikes carried out by Israel and Lebanon today. I mean, we have serious allies, serious NATO leaders on the world stage coming out and condemning the Israeli strikes against Lebanon that J.D. Vance said wouldn't happen. Barack Ravid points out, since VP Vance said yesterday that the Israelis, quote, offered to check themselves a little bit in Lebanon, that J.D. Vance said, Israeli attacks have continued, including the evacuation orders for Beirut in a ground operation
Starting point is 00:05:58 in the biggest town in southern Lebanon. They had strikes that killed hundreds. The attacks hit more than 100 sites in 10 minutes, and the civilian casualty level is rising and rising to war crime levels, quite literally. Here's J.D. Vance using an analogy that is beneath anybody holding office, but especially like a Yale grad. Then you go to Yale? This analogy, it's not that it's like inappropriate, it's just offensively bad.
Starting point is 00:06:24 Take a listen to this. The second thing Ghalybop said, which again, I found fascinating as he said, we refuse to give up the right to enrichment. And I thought to myself, you know what, my wife has the right to skydive. But she doesn't jump out of an airplane because she and I have an agreement that she's not going to do that because I don't want my wife jumping out of an airplane. We don't really concern ourselves with what they claim they have. the right to do, we concern ourselves with what they actually do. And I think the president's been
Starting point is 00:06:54 very clear on the enrichment question. The second... Okay, beyond his main central point about enriched uranium, we talk about that a lot on the show. What the hell was that analogy? My right has, my wife has the right to skydive, but she doesn't jump out of an airplane because she and I have an agreement that she's not going to do that, all right? Really great imagery there, J.D. Vance. Just great imagery. While J.D. Vance was saying this. Israel was planning, horrifying strikes in Beirut and Lebanon. Nearly 100 Israeli strikes hit in less than 10 minutes in broad daylight, with rush hour traffic heard in the background, at least 89 killed. I'm not even going to play the horrifying scenes in this video, but Iran then decided to reclose the straight of Hormuz down to a point
Starting point is 00:07:36 where only about four vessels pass per day, and then they up that amount to no more than 15 vessels passing per day compared to the over 100 vessels that we had pre-February 28th when this war was launched. So good job. We've completely obliterated the ceasefire. We haven't actually obliterated the enriched uranium or their ability to make it. And Iran now seems to have a perpetual weapon via the Strait of Hormuz. Israel isn't calming down. I mean, I'm checking CNN right now. If you look at the CNN live updates, there are still strikes going on. People are saying this are the darkest days in Lebanon's recent history. 100 Israeli airstrikes, hundreds of people killed, 1,200 wounded, and this was 24 hours ago.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Iran's parliament and speaker then came out and said that three clauses of the ceasefire agreement have been violated. Listen, you guys know that Micah Irfan, my lead policy advisor, is Iranian-American himself. He has family there. He has family that grew up there and they say the regime is awful. The people that live there want to be freed
Starting point is 00:08:34 from the regime. But it takes a lot for the Iranian regime to actually be sort of correct over Donald Trump. They're right. Israel has been breaking this ceasefire. It takes a lot for someone. someone like me to be more understanding of where the Iranian regime is coming from, but in this scenario, I understand it. Iran is calling the bluff of our president who's committing genocide with weapons of mass destruction for a religious reason, the same thing that we were trying to stop
Starting point is 00:09:00 them from doing. If you want more moral clarity on the Adam Ackler feed and more breaking news, make sure you drop a like and subscribe. We will continue to push back every single day in a relentless manner. I love you all, and peace out.
