Welcome to the program. So POTUS, we had some several strikes on Iran over the weekend, and now he says that the Strait of Ormoos, it seems like it's a Rorschach test, the Strait of Ormoos. He says that the Strait of Ormoos is in U.S. control. And apparently the IRGC, that's the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, they fired at commercial shipping. This was on Sunday night, according to CENTCOM, per the New York Times. CENTCOM announced the American forces launched additional strikes on Iran to continue degrading their ability to attack civilian mariners and commercial ships transiting the Strait of Ormuz. CENTCOM said that POTUS directed the strikes to, quote, hold Iranian forces accountable after the president declared on national television that the strait was opened.

And some of them were conducted on missile, air defense systems, paramilitary IRGC boats. a couple of other of these locations. So this is, I mean, just saying, this is ongoing, whether or not, I mean, is it open? I mean, it seems like I guess it's open. The straight's open. POTUS is now flirting with the idea of putting in an Iranian blockade and collecting a 20% toll on all cargo to cover the cost of securing the waterway. He tweeted this or tweeted, he posted it on his.

platform this morning. He said, quote, the Ormuz Strait is open and will remain open with or without Iran, he added. He said that we are reinstating the Iranian blockade so named because it is only stopping Iran ships or customers from entering or leaving. He adds, all other countries will have fair and open use of the strait. Now, he adds this, the USA will be from this point forward, known as the guardian of the Hormuz Strait, but as such, and as a matter of caps lock fairness, will be reimbursed at the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped for any and all costs necessary to do the job of providing safety and security to this very volatile section of the world. The process and formation will begin immediately. Thank you for your attention

to this matter, President Donald J. Trump. That's fair. If we're over there ensuring that people's stuff gets through, why would we not? Right? That's fair. I think that's fair to say 20% from cargo. I mean, you don't get to just, why should American taxpayers be providing for all of these other countries and paying for all of these other countries? You know, you got to pay your fair share, right? Isn't that something that they love to say? They love to say that if we're going to be the guardians of the straight, just call it the American straight. I love it, though. It's like Iran's blocking the straight of our move, so we're going to open it by blocking it for them. that works i think that works that makes sense so we had uh apparently we had already really we had released

footage of using naval suicide drones to bomb already destroyed iranian military dockyards i guess just to make them to where they can't be rebuilt so we'll see but that makes sense i'm all for that kane 20% that sounds that's fair i'd take that deal i'd take that deal it's like all of the Apache. I want my Nazi scalps. You know why else I love it? It's because Iran doesn't like it at all. I love the things that Iran doesn't like. If ever

the mullahs, if they dislike it, I tend to like it. And if they love it, I tend to dislike it. That's just sort of how it is. We're never on the same page because they're, the mullahs are incompatible with life on earth. Really? I mean, we're

being gracious and not assisting them the rest of them and shuffling off of this mortal coil. Although we still don't know again whether the burnt one-legged gay, questionably alive, Homony Jr. is even calling the shots anymore. I think it's that tubby guy with the bad beard, that IRGC dude. Tubbs of fun. I think it's him. Commander Chubbs, I think it's that guy. I'm pretty positive. He's the one who's running things because the Hominy Jr. guy, I mean gay, one-legged burnt. I mean, in the mullah culture, are they going to allow that dude to, you know, you're only supposed to be gay with other dudes in your own private time because remember they say women are for children men are for boys are for pleasure or whatever that's why they do all the bakabazi just saying that's gross but that's the mulles that's what happens when you get a theocratic regime that's also from the stone age and hasn't progressed in terms of ideology or thinking beyond that particular level so there it is the a couple of other things to hit we've been covering the lindsay graham news uh the latest with iran uh

I want to get this. This is a crazy story. Almost half of Muslim Americans have a favorable view of Hamas. You know, this is all. I just really feel like so much of this is the algorithms that's brainwashing people. I really do. Why are you making that face? You made a face.

Because it just seemed silly. New York Post. Almost half of Muslim Americans support the terror group Hamas. Now you can see why they were elected with such a, with such a white. margin. They were elected by such a wide margin. Half of Muslim Americans support Hamas. Views of Israelis have soured amongst Republicans and Democrats, according to a new poll. This is something that they've been working on for quite a long time. That's what Tucker is a part of, that red-green alliance that's looking to erode support for our only ally in the Middle East

in favor of Islam and Islamism. I mean, that's an absolute fact. Some of the biggest woke rikers are big-time Islamists. Big-time Islamists. big time Islamist subs. I've got screenshots for days where they're saying that, oh, no, we're more compatible with Islamic rule, et cetera. I mean, these are people that you read and I probably retweeted before. Apparently, the survey found that young Americans of all religions are now more likely to hold favorable reviews of Hamas and Gazans over Israelis, which is a drastic change since Hamas's deadly October 7th rampage, their genocide. Forty-four percent of Muslim-American respondents expressed a favorable opinion of the terror group compared to 17% of black Protestants,

just 4% of evangelical Protestants, and 8% of Catholics. This is a Pew Research Center survey published Thursday. This is the second survey where they have measured this. So this is a trend. This isn't a one off. The first one was actually discussed in Wall Street Journal. And if you look back at any of the radio prep from my substack chapter and verse last week, that's linked for you. The Wall Street Journal in a completely separate survey had measured the support for Islamism in the United States, particularly with young baby millennials and Gen Z and Gen Alpha, as well as support for the alliance with Israel and the Middle East, etc.

So this is a Pew Research survey that was published just last Thursday. 26% of Muslim Americans had a favorable view of Israelis compared to 74% of white evangelical Protestants, 51% of Catholics, and this is interesting, 55% of black Protestants. So black Protestants, more so than Catholics, have a favorable view of Israel than the Catholics, which I think is interesting. 55 to 51%. Isn't that interesting? And in terms of favorable opinion of Hamas, it's, Only 8% of Catholics compared to 70% of black Protestants. Very interesting. So this is all from pure research. And most of the people, by the way, all of these people who have this support for Hamas have never had to live under it.

These are people, they're keyboard travelers. They have never been to these areas. They have never studied the rule or how these people came to power. They know nothing except for social media propaganda. That's all it is. That's a pretty terrifying thing, I got to say. That's pretty terrifying. Hamas is a terror group.

It's designated by the United States as a terror group. I mean, there's no other way to argue around it. So there were a lot of people that were pretty disgusted with it online with this showing. But, I mean, by the way, this is also what's interesting. So the support for Hamas by Muslims in America correlates with the polls that they have taken in Gaza of Hamas. Remember how I've said previously. And again, I have all this linked in substack. When you're a subscriber and you get all of this stuff, you've received all this information repeatedly, actually.

So there have been a number of surveys that have been, I guess, like what in the past, like, actually, numerous surveys year after year since the 2006 elections in which Hamas, by a landslide, one governing control of Gaza's strip. Fata controls West Bank, Hamas controls Gaza. They both fall under what they call the quote-unquote Palestinian, because you know, I think that's a made-up word, because it is factually without argument, under the quote-unquote Palestinian Authority. So Fata, the difference between, just to recap Fata and Hamas, is Fata believe. that their neighbor, Israel, has the right to exist. Hamas does not. It's literally written into their charter. That is one of, that's like their mission statement. And they still don't believe. That's why,

even since Clinton, they have rejected any two-state solution. They have rejected any peace. They have rejected and violated every ceasefire. I mean, this is, you know, these are all facts. These are indisputable with receipts. And so the number of surveys that they've taken since Hamas is overwhelming election in 2006 correlate with this poll from Pew. Because in Gaza, the overwhelming number of people in Gaza support Hamas still. In fact, support for Hamas in Gaza has only grown, contrary to the propaganda that you're getting from the Islamist Simps in podcastistan. There, the support for Hamas has only grown. How do we know this? Well, Ajaunt's France press, Associated Press, Reuters, the BBC, the Guardian, the telegraph, pretty much every single

media, international media outlet that has conducted its own independent survey has walked away with the same conclusions. Also with the quote unquote Palestinian Center for Polling and Survey Research, PCPSR, they also discovered that the overwhelming number of Muslims in Gaza support Hamas still. In fact, that's one of the reasons why they suspended elections in that area, because Hamas was poised to overtake Fata in terms of influence and representation. for those territories within the quote-unquote Palestinian authority. And so they suspended elections and then they used Israel as a scapegoat saying, well, we didn't know if we could hold safe elections because of Israel.

But the bottom line is that the support for Hamas in Gaza has only grown since they were first elected in 2006. It has only grown since October 7th. And it's actually spreading and growing by an exponential number in West Bank. So it's not surprising to see with all of the algorithm control, all of the editorialization, the propaganda, the siops that are being pulled here, the fact that the red-green alliance, red for communists, green for Islamists, that whole operation that involves Tucker Carlson and all of the other cable news rejects that comprise the fetid turd portion of podcastistan. those, I mean, all of that, they're trying so very hard to redefine what that looks like and to engender support for that. And so they, I mean, that's just the way it is. That's, I mean, it shouldn't be surprising. This is also what happens to see this grow by such an astronomical number in the United States. I mean, I can only imagine if you just limited this survey to, for instance,

to Minnesota or Michigan, how astronomically high. that approval would be. This is what happens when you have unfettered immigration without checking to make sure that the ideologies that are coming over here to the United States are compatible with that, the ideology of the United States, Western jurisprudence, and whether or not these individuals, you know, I think it's important to ask, do you support terror groups before you allow someone to immigrate into the United States? I feel like that's a fair question to ask. So this is pretty crazy to see this kind of support growing. I'm warning you that we're going into some very rocky territories as this red-green alliance

sciop continues. And I think one of the reasons, too, that you're seeing some of this stuff, like, for instance, the, I think you're seeing a lot of new disgust with it towards podcasts to stand because I think that some of these podcasters try to fire hose people about all of this stuff, and it backfired on them pretty spectacularly. And so now you're starting to see that it's been described, I think, most apps, as the immune system of the conservative soul, which guides the right, I think you're seeing that kick into gear and resist a lot of this and retaliate with pushback.

But remains to be seen, we're getting into some pretty sketchy times. We've got Florida Man on the way. Folks who helped make the program possible, it's our friends over at Relief Factor. If you want relief from everyday aches and pains, instead of putting a pillow over your face and submitting peacefully, as you shuffle off this mortal coil, maybe try some relief factor first.

And this is what Relief Factor was created. This is what it was created for. They had somebody named Chris who wrote them and said he spent years doing physical work that left his feet aching every day. After starting Relief Factory, he felt so much better. He accomplished something he never had before.

He ran a half marathon. Now he recommends Relief Factor to Friends because he has experienced the difference firsthand. That's what they wanted me to read to you verbatim. So Relief Factor, again, 100% drug-free research-based formula, all designed to fight inflammation. That's the root cause of most pain, right? And you've got millions of people that are trying Relief Factor and finding respite from all of this discomfort. And you could be the next person with a Relief Factor success story.

It's time for Dana's Quick Five. I almost try to go back to my 1230 headlines. I don't know. Humanoid robots pulled off the first ever gallbladder surgeries in a major step towards human trials.

So, I mean, robotic surgery is nothing new. That's nothing new at all. In fact, I mean, there's like it's already happened. I mean, I underwent it before. I mean, it's not medically necessary. Yeah, it's like robotic surgery. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So New York Post has this story.

it's humanoid bots that are doing it. I actually, I don't dislike this. I really don't. How many, I'm just curious as to what medical malpractice would look like with humanoid versus not humanoid. Right? Why do you look utterly terrified over there in the dark corner with your giant precious moments eyeballs?

I'm just saying, where will the liability be at that point? Are you going to be one of the first to say, hey, guess what? Go ahead, cut me up. I trust you. Well, I mean, it's, I mean, they do, it's, they have oversight. I know. It's not like the doctors are like, we're going to the beach for some margs later, bots. I just treat it like the latest iOS.

I'll let everyone else do it first. And then any bugs and problems, I'll go ahead and deal with it. So LAPD is ending a deal with a company operating a license plate reading camera. No flock. What's up? No flock. Flot cameras. Those things are, man, I'm not telling you.

you what, you're going to have a Waco siege if you'd like roll up to my place, like, acting like you're going to do some flock or red light camera stuff. Good heavens. Kia launched a recall for, oh, godly, 463,000 telewrite SUVs due to a fire risk.

And they're telling everybody, you guys need to park outside because your Kia's going to catch on fire. The recall announced this week by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Good grief, could you have a longer. Kia America, they said, yeah, those telewrite SUVs. Just keep them outside.

Park them outside away from everything. Don't park them by buildings because apparently they've had several reports of fires following previous repairs. The 2020 to 2024 model years are affected of certain telly rides. Just look it up. I mean, I'm not your

Google. So just go and look up if you're a Kia. Go look up your Kia telary ride because I always get emails. Like, can you tell me specifically? No, I would have to go to Google. Let me Google that for you. I'm serious. They said that it's the front power seat motor over heats because of a stuck slide knob. That's what does it.

That's crazy. Yeah, can you imagine? Seat feels a little warm. Full toasty. So AI can even help you dance it says as it plots a takeover of the human race. This sounds horrible. Oh, goodness. It's like that dance dance revolution.

thing. So they said that dance guru is a new app where it's like virtual reality headset and they're trying to teach people how to dance. This is going to go horribly and I can't wait to see all of the videos from it. That's going to be glorious. The folks who help bring you the program. It is our friends over at Superbeats.

We're at the bottom of this third hour. and you can listen across the country. You can also watch YouTube, Facebook, all that good stuff on X, all of that. We were talking a little bit about some of the latest developments with Iran, and I just saw that POTUS formally notified Congress, that fighting has resumed in Iran in a letter to congressional leaders describing, quote, defensive strikes against targets with Iran. This comes after we had the headline of Yemen hitting back, say no. Iran was trying to use our airport, our international airport.

We're not allowing them to land planes there. And then there were strikes that were carried out against Iran that were led by the Saudis because Riyadh backs all of Yemen's security. So very interesting developments there. And still nobody has seen the one-legged, burnt gay, maybe DeHominee Jr. No one has seen him yet. And POTUS also said earlier today that they were going to, the United States controls the straight and that we are going to now charge a 20 percent. What did they call it? Like a tax?

It's like a fee. If the United States is going to keep all of that open, then we're going to charge a fee to do so. But a UN shipping agency has rejected it saying that there is, quote, no legal basis for such a toll, for a mandatory toll. We're the United States of America. I would disagree with that. Joining us now on all of this and more, our friend Stephen Yates, you can find him on next at Steve Yates, senior research fellow at the Heritage Foundation, experts in all things China and served in not one but two presidential administrations. joins me from his dungeon. Good to see you, my friend. So let me ask you this. I mean,

maybe this is just me. Maybe it's kind of myopic, but I just think, you know, we're the greatest nation in the world. If we're keeping the Strode of Ormuz open and POTUS says, you know what, we got to make back what we're expending in order to keep this all open and everything peaceful, yeah, we're going to charge a 20% fee on cargo. That, to me, seems reasonable for the services that the United States is providing that benefits so many other people more so than. and it does us. I bet that is a super popular position among American voters, Dana, because we have done a lot for the providers and the customers of this economic supply chain.

And, you know, if the UN wants to have an opinion, they're welcome to file it away in a lovely little spot as far as I'm concerned. I look forward to those blue-hatted numskulls trying to figure out how to secure anything since they have failed at every single security mission since the founding of the United Nations. But for the real world, you know, especially I think Americans really are sick of providing welfare for rich people. So if you have very rich kingdoms or trying to get their product out to market and very rich consumer countries who are on the other end of it, say Europe, maybe other parts of Asia, how about they pay? I don't think that is a wild and crazy notion. And if people don't like it, well, what are they going to do to make sure that there's freedom of navigation and that this commercial world continues to spin in the right direction?

So I think it's actually a conversation worth having. Yeah, there you go. Well, I mean, and two, like what would happen if the United States just says, okay, we're going to withdraw then and we just won't keep the peace? Because the UN didn't say anything when Iran said it was going to charge a toll, but they're going to say something when Trump says it? Funny that. I mean, you know, the majority of these countries that vote in the General Assembly, we look at who has the vetoes on the UN Security Council, permanent membership. You know, it's just not a serious place for serious decision making. So I think, you know, basically power is what determines these kinds of things. I like it that President Trump is willing to use power, whether it's verbal power, economic power. and military power from time to time. But I also like that he's somewhat judicious about,

we're not going all in on the military options. We're going to use a sort of balanced portfolio. And it might even be frustrating for people sometimes that he's willing to be more gradualist and patient about these kinds of things. But when it comes to the US being the world's biggest provider of security and what is usually called the global commons, I think it's about time to make sure people pay

at least some sort of support for what we're doing to make sure the global economy runs the right way. So, you know, just call me gobsmacked that common sense might be leading a headline on things international that touch upon the United Nations. I think that the development, for those joining us, we're talking with our friends, Stephen Yates at Steve Yates on X. I think the development, as it pertains to Yemen and the video, I mean, they put out a whole video where their defense minister was blasting Iran and the mullahs and saying, you're, you're offensive to our sovereignty.

I mean, I'm just, you know, obviously bridging his remarks, but they were very, very displeased with Iran just kind of treating Yemen like it's on like backwater airport. And then the fact that, which I was unaware of, I didn't realize that the Saudis provided so much security for Yemen. And that means Riyadh was, you know, they were involved. The Saudis were involved in this. Talk a little bit about the significance of that because that seems to me, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I missed prior, you know, developments. But that seems to me like a pretty serious engagement on behalf of some of these other. Arab nations.

It is. Now, Saudi Arabia does have particular feelings about what they consider to be their peninsula and they're near abroad, including their Gulf that hasn't always carried their name. So it's not surprising that they have demonstrable interests and will occasionally weigh in. I do think this is one of the benefits of what the Trump approach to the broader Middle East has been. While people might be frustrated with the insurance companies not covering vessels that should be making safe passage. But what Trump has done is by this on again, off again approach, you end up with countries that are wealthy and have their own capabilities are now compelled to step in and take action from time to time. And it's exactly that kind of action that's going to be

necessary if we're going to be able to transition from America alone providing the security and the punch in the face that's necessary for the Revolutionary Guard. If Saudi Arabia and other allies demonstrate that they're willing and able to take action, then that is where we end up with a balance of power that allows for freedom of navigation. And America doesn't have to be the one always mowing the lawn. The regional powers can do that. Now, that's a very good point. Where is their leader? I mean, I guess it's pretty much IRC doing this, because we haven't seen this one-legged, burnt, you know, gay, questionably alive, Hominy Jr. Who's running the show, really. Well, that's another one of these things where I don't understand why the alleged international

community hasn't said picks or it didn't happen. Right. And so it's so conspicuous that there's been zero proof of life. Now, the president has intimated and saw some of his principles in the cabinet that there are reasons to assume that this guy is actually alive. To a degree, it doesn't matter because we ultimately just need whatever position is that's making decisions to make the strategic choice to stop being a destabilizing power, take the deal so that we can stop hitting you. It's really, help us stop hitting you. And whoever is willing and able to make the decision, that's who we're dealing with. In name, the Iranians are insisting it's the Ayatollah. I frankly, at this point, I'm of the view, the guy's dead unless you prove otherwise.

And that we are in fact negotiating with the IRGC through cutouts. And that's who I think has to be degraded further. I think some other leaders have been taken out. I've seen reports that another general of some high status was taken out over the weekend. I pray it's true. But I think that's where the rubber hits the road. That pole has to be driven down lower in the tent. before we've got a shot at some maintenance or peace.

That's weird because it seems like there's more evidence that Mitch McConnell is around and kicking it still than there is this hominy junior. I can't believe that situation. I mean, I didn't mean to throw that, but I was thinking about it. I'm like, you know what? There's like literally more evidence that Mitch McConnell is still on this mortal coil than there is this, you know, gay, burnt one-legged Hummany Jr. than him. I mean, although all the photos that I've seen thus far have been AI generated, but still, I mean, there's more evidence that, you know. So, I mean, we, I mean, ultimately, is it, would you say, and this is, I'm kind of spitballing, is one of the reasons why it's so difficult to nail them on anything other than the fact that historically it's impossible to negotiate with this entity because they, they've never entered into any negotiation with any goodwill or any seriousness that's seen it all the way through.

That, but also, who in the hell are we negotiating with? I mean, we don't even know who's, I mean, it's our IRGC, maybe some of the Ayatollas toadies. I mean, can it really be a negotiation if there's not like an actual formalized leadership? Well, the way I look at it is it really depends on whether this is just a U.S. Iran situation or whether the landing place the president has in mind is going to involve other real stakeholders. And part of the value or necessity of going through the diplomatic channel, even if you believe it will go nowhere. And even if you believe all of the gloriously colorful words the president used to describe his Iranian counterparts are true, you go through this because by being seen going through

this, others who otherwise would not have been willing or able to step in and do their part are more willing to, after they see, yep, this has really been tried. The U.S. has really exhausted every avenue. This wasn't about the big ogre from the United States coming and breaking everything in our neighborhood. This was a real effort at degrading a real threat, and there was a real attempt at a better path that has been rejected repeatedly. And so now we have no other choice. I think that with the Gulf Arab allies, that's the primary audience, and that's why we've gone down this road. And maybe there's some evidence we've brought them along. I don't think it's to convince Europe. I think Europe is completely irrelevant and pointless in this exercise. And perhaps

every exercise until they sort of decide they want to save their own civilization. But I think it also mattered to our Asian allies of some consequence. Japan, first among all others. So we needed to be seen doing some of this, not because it will work, but maybe because it won't work, but we'll have been seen being responsible. Last question, you mentioned Asian allies as well. This is interesting. The EU from MSNBC, 14 nations in the European Union affirmed this 2016 ruling. That invalidates China's claim to the South Sea because this always gets, and you know I've just talked about this before, this gets into is it the South China Sea or the South Seas? And it's really the South Seas. It's just China that's trying to say, no, this is ours. So all these nations and the EU invalidate this.

So what's next? Well, it's always handy when the globalists of the world will finally weigh in on the right side of something. It's not as if they'll use any power to impose that outcome. But again, I think it helps give a shroud of legitimacy to middle countries, say like the Philippines, to stand up to a big bully that is making this kind of expansive claim in action and inward. It creates space for a shire power like Japan who's been bullied for the past generation or two for sins of the past, but is more of a normal responsible nation at this point. It gives them space to step out and do things with or without the United States having to be involved. And frankly, it's good for everybody. It also helps some others in Southeast Asia lean onto the right side of this so that they don't, this is not U.S. versus China. This isn't America picking a fight.

It's time for Florida, man. Okay, I have some really gross headlines. I'm skipping this one Where to We're to start with So first and foremost here We got some bangers Yeah let me

Actually I got to restart this Uh huh isn't that lovely But not this one There was a guy who got caught Having A vacuum romance I didn't make this up This is the news

It's Channel 6 Central Florida man was caught in an individualized intimate performance with a vacuum, say deputies. Kevin Westroll, 51, exposed himself. That's the other part, in front of a whole residence. So I guess there's someone who provided a statement and cell phone recording of a guy partially clothed, literally in their front yard with a vacuum cleaner. Deputies say the moment the person called the deputy, that called police, that he started to flee,

They found that the suspect and his wife were listed as the hosts of an Airbnb home. You know there's cameras on that in place. And apparently the guy has been walking around shared spaces and hallways while, like in apartments and nearby areas while nude. And apparently there's other incidents that have been captured on ring cameras, door cameras of him doing this. So, yeah. Now all of these videos, because there's a number of incidents, were reported to their homeowners association, like as far back as December, and all of these different door camera videos have been provided to police showing all of these incidents of this

guy appearing partially clothed or nude, like in front of their residences. And so they got a warrant and they were able to detain him in front of his home. Now he faces exposure of sexual organs because he's grody. So, yeah, that's... This is really, uh, Burmese pythons in Florida. This is horrible. Invasive Burmese pythons have established a new hotspot in Florida, say wildlife experts. Because you know they hunt them and they have this whole thing there. So now they found a whole new established colony of these Burmese pythons outside of the previously established core range, according to wildlife officials. normally it's all been centered in the Everglades, but now they're in Lake Okeechobee all the way to Key Largo and Broward to Collier County. Florida Fish and Wildlife had new satellite proof of populations that have like exploded.

And now they're considered really established in Charlotte County, which is north of Naples and Fort Myers on the Gulf Coast, where they had not suspected it before. So that's, dang. It's all because somebody had a pet snake. You know that, right? Isn't that usually how it starts? We have more on the way, third hour coming up as we roll towards headlines.
