Have it all with Dulu on Disney Plus. In today's video, Iran is. now retaliating after military forces last night obliterated Karg Island home to their oil exports. Also, Democrats continue to double down on not voting for the Save America Act, which is prompted Republicans to not vote on any piece of legislation unless the Senate passes it. So much more drama to cover here. But first, let's hear what happened with Karg Island late last night. Watch.

Threats are escalated. Iran targeting oil operations in the UAE, forcing some shutdowns. The attack comes just hours after the United States hit Iran's own oil infrastructure. The USS Tripoli and thousands more Marines are now heading to the Middle East. President Trump says Iran is being obliterated and is ready to make a deal, but not one he's willing to accept. Also plumes of smoke and buildings shaking in Iraq's financial center as a missile strikes a U.S. embassy compound in the country's capital of Baghdad. Many are now left wondering if China and Russia will actually get involved in the fighting that's happening in the Middle East. Also closer here at home, Americans feeling the pain at the pump,

but gas surging to more than $3.67 a gallon. The president trying to reassure Americans that this short-term pain is going to be worth it. I think the gas prices, as soon as that's over, if it comes tumbling down along with everything else, I think it's going to be, you're going to see a very big decrease in the price of gasoline, gas, anything having to do with energy, as soon as this is ended. Okay, so this Saturday brings us some big updates regarding the conflict in Iran. On one hand, this regime has officially ordered the closure of Hermuz, which obviously not only now threatens America, but literally threatens the rest of the world regarding crude oil, just so you guys are clear.

And then number two, late last night, the president went on choose social and confirm that the military carried out one of the biggest bombing campaigns of Iran's military assets. So those are really two of the big things. And so we're going to get into that. So first, let's talk about the actual bombing campaign. And then we'll get into the Strait of Hermuse. Watch. And President Trump provided a battlefield assessment of the war last night saying Iran's navy is gone. Their air force is no longer.

Missiles, drones, and everything else are being decimated. And their leaders have been wiped from the face of the earth. We have unparalleled firepower, unlimited ammunition, and plenty of time. Well, yeah, this is definitely an effort to protect shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Large Island is an island in the Persian Gulf as the United States, as you heard in the President's True Social, destroyed every military target there as they continue to try to degrade Iran's ballistic missile capabilities. I'm telling you what, we have thrown everything at these boys. Karg Island is 16 miles northwest of the Strait of Hormuz, 16 miles off of the coast of Iran. It's about eight square miles, and we're pounding the hell out of it.

They call it the orphan pearl. civilians are not allowed to even go on Carg Island. So naturally, they thought that the Americas are never going to hit it. So what are the chances that they're hiding stuff on that island? Because 90% of their oil comes from there, as you stated earlier. Now, right now, Carg Island is 60% Raytheon. Because we have pounded the hell out of that thing, and we'll continue to do it. Now, everybody was pretty much given a heads up that this was going to be a possibility

in the president and the Department of War. led by Pete Hexat did follow through on this threat. Obviously, their main priority is to essentially obliterate any military capability that resides under the Iranian regime. Now, the problem is they have not completed that to 100%. I mean, you may say 60%, you may say 70%, there's still a certain level of percentage of their military capability that still exists today, which is why Israel is still getting hit by drones or missiles from Iran, even though they have their golden dome. So I think that kind of tells you where they're at in the process.

Now, what I find interesting is that MS disinformation invited the Iran's foreign minister to come on this morning and essentially pushes propaganda. Take a listen. So the reaction would be clear. Last night, they have attacked Khark Island and Abu Musa Island with, you know, the artillery rocket system, you know, high Mars, as they call it, which is a low-range rockets, and they have done it from the soil of our neighbors. And this is crystal clear that now they are using the territory of our neighbors to attack us

by these kind of, you know, rockets. Listen, they can interview whoever they want, obviously, okay? I have no issues there. I just don't know what the purpose of the interview was because we already know what he's going to say. I mean, of course, they're going to condemn these attacks. They don't believe they're justified. They don't believe they've done anything wrong. In fact, they believe they are the victim in this particular scenario. I mean, I guess depending on what side you lean politically, and it's kind of crazy to say that out loud here in America, you have people sympathizing right now with this Iranian regime, which is why he was on that network last night. So speaking of that, let's go to your standard white liberal progressive who has been raging against this conflict ever since it started. I want you to hear the mindset of how they're looking at this latest bombing campaign from the president. Take a listen. Today, we are putting 2,200 Marines on the way to the Middle East with no plan for them. Should we just let Iran build a nuclear weapon? This is what you guys keep saying.

What is the alternative? Should we just let them kill the whole world? It's like they weren't going to. There was no intelligence that said they had nuclear weapons. They were not ahead of nuclear weapons. We were in the middle of talks with them about nuclear weapons, which, according to Omar or... They've had 47 years. We were doing it.

They were getting everything we wanted. America was getting everything we wanted. And we have to say that... According to you, not Steve Wickcoff? Yeah, no. Not Steve Whitkoff. This is the most honest man in the entire world. It actually literally feels like he works for Russia now and Russia's the one benefiting from this.

So, no, I'm not going to take Steve Whitkoff's... But I think that, unfortunately, yeah. And I think that, unfortunately, yeah. And I think that Jared Kushner was the one who finally made the decision, and he told his father-in-law to do it. And I think we'll get out of this war when Jared Kushner tells his father-in-law, they're no longer benefiting from it. So your answer is to continue to let Iran back has to blah.

No, that is not my answer. And yet again. Okay, so someone has to take them. No, it's not a false choice. We did not need to be in this war. We did not need to be in this war. We started a war for no reason. We are the bad guys here.

Iran started. And that last comment is the summary of what you could expect as far as the perception from white liberals. We are the bad guys here. Now, let's play their logic. Okay, let's say we are. Let's say, you know, at this point, it's all a lie. Well, there's no stopping this.

I mean, that train has left the station at this point. So all we could do is just hope this comes to an end as quickly as possible. But let's say, let's just say half of it is true. Okay, still, I use this analogy every time. I mean, would you as an American citizen support the cartel at least having the capability to build a nuclear weapon? I'm not asking that they would have one. I'm asking you, do you support their ability

to have the infrastructure and the logistics to build one? Would you support that? I think majority of Americans would say no. And the cartels have nothing as far as their murderous ways on the IRGC. The USS Tripoli is on its way from Japan with 2,500 sailors and 2,500 Marines.

It's expected to arrive in the next week or two. They will help protect U.S. bases and also, as we mentioned, go after Iran's ballistic missile capabilities. The U.S. and Israel have now struck more than 15,000 targets between the two of them. One strike today happened just down the street from where thousands of Iranians gathered for Al-Quds Day. Many here chanted death to America and death to Israel as they burned American flags and promised to resist U.S. forces. All right. So I think it'd be good if we at least take a little. look at the prediction market, cowshee.com. This is a market where you can bet on anything that you literally want.

I mean, it's pretty crazy from, you know, politics, sports, culture, crypto, climate, economics. At any rate, question here, will the Save Act become law? Well, it's already down to 10% chance. So it's still not looking good whatsoever. And if you want to be able to put some money on this and possibly win, use my promo code devori at calci.com or slash devore.

So now we can segue into the straight of Hermose because these are really two separate issues happening at the same time. Again, issue number one is how far long are we at obliterating their military capability?

Like I said earlier, it still exists. So it's not totally finished, even though that's what the president has said on two soldiers just being objectively fair here. And now we go to our second issue, which is Iran's, defiance, if that is the word. They want the Strait of Hermos

closed, which is obviously a threat to literally the rest of the world. Let's hear how CNN is reported on that. Take a listen. Posted about this twice. So it is obviously top of mind as 20% of the world's oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz. His most

recent post, he said that this always should have been a team effort and that other countries need to be joining in. But I want to pull up his first post. That's where he provided some more detail. In it, he said, many countries, especially those who are affected by Iran's attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending warships in conjunction with the United States of America to keep the straight open and safe. We have already destroyed 100% of Iran's

military capability, but it's easy for them to send a drone or two, drop a mine, or deliver a close range missile somewhere along or in this waterway, no matter how badly did. defeated they are. He added that he hopes, emphasis on hopes there, that China, France, South Korea, and the United Kingdom would be sending ships, and that in the meantime, the United States would be bombing the shoreline. So the biggest talking point, you're probably going to hear this coming week, is that the president is at fault for why gas prices have gone through the roof. Now, as you guys know, crude oil has come down. I mean, one could argue it's somewhat stabilized. It's not where it was, obviously, before this thing kicked off. And some gas stations have not responded yet because, again, when crude oil prices change rapidly,

which that's the way the market works, the response from gas stations take a while to catch up. There's a lag there. So I think Americans can still expect to pay high gas prices, essentially. And for how long that's going to be? We don't know. But what we do know is that will continue to happen as this conflict rolls on. So here is one perspective on this from Kevin O'Leary himself. This happened yesterday. Take a listen.

The same thing's going to have to happen here in the Strait of Hermoes. So we're going to have to get a coalition of the countries that care. And that's going to be the oil-producing countries in that region. They're going to have to pay. It's going to be a daily security force, no different than the United Nations did in the 60s on the island of Cyprus. It costs billions, maybe a billion a month. But that is a fraction of what the disruption costs are occurring right now in the world. I think the U.S. costs so far about $11, $12 billion.

I know it sounds like a lot of money. It's a rounding error in the cost of this thing staying closed to all of our allies that buy our goods and services. So you have to put it in context. When we get out of this thing, I guarantee you there will be a new policy on keeping that two-mile stretch. That's all it is that the Iranians say they're mining right now. Who knows? But the point is that will stay open in perpetuity no matter what the cost is. Yeah, reportedly, our U.S. military has been able to kind of keep watch, close watch on that.

There are no minds in it right now as of when we went to report for 53 minutes ago. And as you say, we don't know that can change moment by moment. Now, while the pundits and the politicians are, I guess, squabbling over crude oil in the shirt of her moose, protesters in NYC are up to doing the same thing, which is obviously they have to disagree with whatever the president does, including this. They've gone so far as to show their support of the Supreme Leader who was obviously killed by the initial strikes and are chanting interesting statements. Take a listen. So you hear it there. We support Hezbollah here. This was all for Al Quds Day, which is an annual anti-Israel event held on the last Friday of Ramadan. It was established by Iran back in 1979. Now, this protest drew hundreds of apparent terror supporters as well as supporters of the current Iranian. regime, the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world. We proclaim our support for the Islamic Republic.

Shame, shame, USA! Shame, shame, USA! Iran is the central pillar of the struggle against U.S. imperialism and Zionism today. Some of the protesters were holding up photos of Iran's former Supreme Leader, the Ayatoll Jaime Ne, who was assassinated. by Israel on the first day of the war. Yep, that's the bottom line to that. But it shows you

the different size to this particular conflict. Now, I think at the end of the day, as an average American citizen who, I'm talking about the average people out there, they have no idea where Iran is on a map. They have no idea the history and all of that good stuff. Why should they care?

What does this have to do with them? Well, the best thing you could hope for is that the president made this decision because he had access to information that me and you don't. And that information pretty much told him he had no choice but to do this. That's all we could really hope. And then what we can come to expect is that he's going to see this through to the end and the end should not drag on for a multitude of years. That end should come in a matter of months. And if that happens, then I would probably say this

is all good. Now there will be consequences from this. There always is. Anytime we're in the Middle East, there is a consequence. What that will be, we don't know it at this point. But what we do know is there are people continuing to go on mainstream media, like Republicans, who once supported the president and is now raging against them. Take a listen. You're someone who once said you thought that there was no one more deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize than President Trump. Obviously, he's long sought one. Do you think that there's any way he could still get one given this war? You know, at one time when he wanted to be the president of peace and he wanted to end wars and constantly talked about no more foreign wars, no ending wars. Of course I thought he deserved the Nobel Peace Prize. But do I think he deserves it now? No, absolutely not.

And I don't think this is what the American people want. Look, I think there's a big divide, Caitlin, between the baby boomer generation and like Gen X, my generation and the millennials. you know, our generations have been the ones that have been sent to fight these wars in the Middle East, and our generations have paid a huge cost, and we want to see it over with. But yet it's the baby boomers that are in power that are just clinging to power, living out the end of their days. You know, it really angers me, Caitlin, because I feel like they're ruining it for the rest of us. As a millennial, obviously I can't speak for every millennial out there.

I can only speak for myself as a 13-year service. member in the Army, I could say that two things could be true at the same time. We can have a certain level of cautious or hesitation or even distrust with our government regarding this conflict. And at the same time, we want the president to be successful. We want our men and women to be successful with the mission that they've been given. So to sit here around this table and complain all day long about what's happening here is a waste of energy. That's the problem. That's the problem with Democrats. All they do is complain. There's no solution. There's no clear, you know, merits of the case that they are choosing to debate over. No. It's just complaining,

or like we used to say it in the military bitch moan and complain. Okay. At this point, the train has left the station people. So at this point, I think we should just shut up, root for our success here, that this comes to a close pretty quickly. That's all I have to say about it. Let's continue. They're leaving us with tens of trillions of, of, of national, debt. Only seven years from now, Social Security is going to be bankrupt. So me and you, our Social Security payments are going to be basically a tax, and we may never see a Social Security check. So the direction of America and the divide between the generations where many baby boomers are supporting this war, because that's what they've been told on television, where many of us,

we get our news from alternate sources and international news, and we know what's going on. And here's the message for the rest of the world. The younger generations of Americans, we don't want war with the world. We want peace. We desperately want peace between all of our nations. We want good trade. We want to have good business deals. And we want to be able to visit your countries and you come visit ours.

This is not what we want. This is not what we voted for. And I'm certainly praying for our military troops and I'm praying for the administration to stop the insanity. Okay, so my thing here is that according to her language, we should isolate ourselves from the rest of the world. We should never involve ourselves in any conflict around the globe. It's fascinating. She has nothing to say about the eight wars that the president ended by using obviously tariffs, but she only has something to say about this one. Now, if this drags on for years, I'm with you. But we're not even there yet. Okay, we're not even at 30 days yet.

And so that's a whole other thing. And secondly, the truth is somewhere in the middle, just so we're objectively fair here. The truth is not what Lindsey Graham wants it to be, if you guys catch my drift. He wants it intervening everything. But it's also not what Marjorie Taylor Green wants, which is don't involve ourselves in anything at all. Okay? Like both of those are too extreme. There is a middle ground here that is appropriate and pragmatic, by the way, because this is the greatest country on the planet.

and because we're the greatest country on the planet, we have some of the greatest threats against us. But they don't want to acknowledge that. In fact, Democrats, just like Marjorie Taylor Green, they want to focus on tribalism and being contrarians instead of standing up for our country and supporting our men and women in the armed forces, which is why Joe Manchin said this to Fox News earlier today.

Take a listen. If the Democrats want to have control again or be in a majority or have a president that's a Democrat registered as a Democrat, then they better get with commonality of what's going on. I do not fault President Trump at all for doing what he did. I wish we would have more of our traditional allies with us. Now it sounds like they might be getting more involved now.

It had been better if the Senate and the House could have been more up to tune of why the threat was there, why something had to be done. But I can tell you, when I was first elected in November of 2010, we had four countries of concern, always four countries, China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. They're never going to have our back. They're never going to be on our side. And Iran is the most prolific terrorist supporters in the world. That had to be wiped out sooner or later.

We should have had the whole world coming with us. They didn't come at first. Maybe we didn't really cudgel that, if you will. But it's never too late. Let's get them involved now. Let's make sure we can finish this job. And we have to. Now, I think I'm such a logical person at times, and I just start doing these mental calculations in my head from both points of view on this particular story. And here's a new one for you. So let's say you believe the president's wrong on this 100%. Okay. Let's root for him to finish this so that we once and for all could prove that he's been lying the whole time or America's been lying about Iran the whole time. Why am I saying it that way? Think of this. At the

president is successful in what he wants to accomplish here. Three years later, if we have to bomb Iran again, then history will know that this was all a lie. And that will work in the favor of people who disagree with them. I guess we'll have to see, right? All right. Let's go to our next story, the Save America Act. Now, this is a nice update. And this reminds of what happened in January, where there's certain number of Republicans in the House who are willing to stand up because they have a backbone. And what am I talking about here? At least 50 House Republicans. Republicans are refusing to vote on any piece of legislation moving forward unless the Save America Act is passed by the Senate. Hear it for yourself.

How big is this block of Congressman willing to not vote on other legislation? You only need a few to make a difference here. You know, I would guess that right now there are probably 40 or 50 Republicans that are not going to vote for any piece of legislation from the Senate. That's a large chunk of the Republican conference. And again, I think it's because we realize, we recognize that this is the political issue of the day right now. This is what the American people want. And by the way, this is going to be key to House Republicans keeping a majority in November. It's going to be hard for us to go back to our voters in November and tell them,

listen, you gave us control the House, you gave us control the Senate, and we couldn't get a common sense voter ID bill passed that both parties, at least from a voter standpoint, support. That's going to be really difficult. So I hope that the Senate sees that. sees that this is key to us maintaining control of the house. And if we don't do this, it's going to be a lot harder for us in a few months. Again, Congress has always been the problem and the solution, as we continue to say on the show, it's easy for us to point fingers at each other and rage against each other because we have political differences. But guys, let's remind ourselves, the root cause of our problem is not you may be a Democrat and I may be a Republican.

No, the root cause of our problem here in this country is members of Congress. are slave to the money, their donors, the lobbyists, the foreign countries, all right, the special interest groups. That is, there's no question about that. And not only that, you combine that with the way the founding fathers created it, which is a system that is very slow naturally. And so it's just a massive frustration for the American people. I mean, who knew voter ID was such a hard issue to actually pass through Congress.

All right. Let's go to the president. Here's what he had to say yesterday. because Leader Thune, he's under fire. Mr. President, on the Save Act, if Leader Thune cannot whip up the Republican support to either nuke the filibuster, re-opened the government and pass the SAVE Act,

or somehow... It's not called the Save America Act. You're right, sir. Do you think if Leader Thune can't accomplish that, do you think Senate needs a new leader? Well, it's certainly a very popular thing. I don't think there's ever been a bill that's more popular than the Save America Act.

It's voter ID. it's a proof of citizenship. It's things that are so often. No men and women's sports and no transgender mutilization of our children. So many different things. It's so good. No running around

with the mail-in ballot nonsense that's gone on for so long that no other country does. No other country. We're going to clean up our elections. I don't think I've ever been involved in anything that's had to support of the Save America. Act. So what she would have? Well, what should happen is the American people should realize the power they possess. And when the midterms rolls around, they vote in the opponent of a lot of these Republican members. I'm telling you, the issue here at hand is there's a double standard right in front of us. On one hand, in the thief of the night, every member of Congress almost. I mean, I'm talking like at a 96% clip in both chambers will vote yes,

on the budget for the Department of War. No debate, no press statements, no drama, no delay. It happens like that. But then when you're talking about voter ID, oh, I mean, they're acting like it's the worst thing in the world. So, yeah, I think the American people just have to wake up here. Let's go to Anna Paulina Luna. Here's what she had to say. Congresswoman, is that what you're hearing? Because you only need a few votes that would stop the legislation in the House. Is it 40 to 50? That's huge. Oh, most certainly. In fact, most of our frontline members understand as Representative Gill had stated how important this is, not just for their re-elections, but also remember, we all campaigned

on election integrity. The president literally got shot. I don't know if the American people remember that and still won by overwhelming majority. And yet you have, you know, senators, both Democrat Republicans saying they won't support this. And that's unacceptable. And so, yes, they will not pass any legislation. We have the votes to kill it. No rules. will pass, none of their legislation will get through. Now, to her credit, she was the same individual who was essentially made the same threat back in January, which she was going to refuse to vote for the government to be reopened, because obviously the entire government was shut down there for a minute, unless the Save Act was passed.

Well, unfortunately, she was just one of few members of Congress who actually bleed in that effort, and obviously that didn't work, and that's why DHS is still shut down today. But at any rate, I'm still, I still don't have a lot of confidence that the Senate's going to be able to figure this out. If they haven't figured it out by now, what makes us think anything's really going to change, especially when we continue to hear statements like this from Democrats here, Senator Alex Padilla this morning saying this about the Save America Act. Take a listen. This coming week, I'm taken to the floor leading my colleagues to make sure that we oppose any sort of parliamentary trick.

They may try to get the SAVE Act passed. We're not going to let it get past the Senate. All right. Let's get your guys' reaction, your comments, your thoughts below to both of these stories today. I mean, on one hand, we have people who say we should never get involved with anything ever. But on the other hand, are you willing to risk that with a country like Iran, particularly the RDC? You give me your answer in the comments section below. And then give you your forecast, your estimation, do you believe the Save America Act will really get passed in the end when it's

it's all said and done. Give me your thoughts and everything you got in the comment section below. All right, let's go to our next video. TSA officers are asking for donations, gas and groceries. So if you're traveling out there, please drop off a gift card. That is our next story, including something bad that happened to Zoroamandani once again.
