So in today's video, we have breaking news. The president announced a double-sided ceasefire deal with Iran that should last for about two weeks. But what about the details? Also, California has experienced an ice shooting. And Abigail Spamberger is under fire again after a new approval rating shows how bad she's doing as governor. Let's start with what the president had to say. Take a list. We're just getting some breaking news here about the war.

The president has just issued a truth social from the White House saying this, Based on conversations with Prime Minister Sharif and Field Marshal, a Munir of Pakistan and wherein, they requested that I hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran, agreeing to the complete, immediate, and safe opening of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks. This will be a double-sided ceasefire.

The reason for doing so is that we have already met and exceeded all military objectives and are very far along with a definitive agreement concerning. long-term peace with Iran and peace in the Middle East. We received a 10-point proposal from Iran and believe it is a workable basis on which to negotiate. Almost all of the various points of past contention have been agreed to between the United States and Iran, but a two-week period will allow the agreement to be finalized and consummated. On behalf of the United States of America as president and also representing the countries of the Middle East, it is an honor to have this long-term problem close to resolution. Thank you for your attention.

to this matter, President Donald J. Trump. And here's that official announcement from the White House. They posted it on social media here. And, you know, the interesting part about this announcement, it's what the president has always done. He issues the most biggest threat, final ultimatum that one can issue. And then in the end, a ceasefire happens. It's classical President Trump, if that makes sense.

So it begs the question, what happened to all the people who were saying and then he was going to nuke 90 million people of Iran. What happened to that exactly? I think Tim Poul sums it up. No matter what Trump does, he is wrong. If he attacks, he is wrong. If he agrees not to attack, he is wrong. Yeah, these people are hilarious, if not hysterical.

And again, you can criticize the strategy. Maybe you don't agree with it. Maybe you don't agree with this at all. Fine. That is totally fine. The problem here that I continue to experience, especially online, is people's disagreement turns into literally, stupidity. I mean, that's what we're seeing throughout this country, whether it's the no King's

protests or people like Jason Crow telling service members to disregard the orders from the president himself, which actually came about an hour ago. Take a list of this. Thank you. You, of course, Congress has been briefed to a certain extent on the state of the war. Right now, the president is threatening that a whole civilization will die tonight. Do you think the president's going to follow through on that? Well, it's a war crime. It's a very clear war crime. If he attempts to follow through on it, my message to the military servicemen and women that would have to follow through on those orders is they have an obligation to follow the Constitution and they have an obligation to follow the law. Yeah, and that is what stupidity truly looks like. He's over there saying that war crimes are going to

happen. Clearly, that hasn't happened. And, you know, we've experienced Donald J. Trump for at least a decade now, you think they would have already caught on to what he's trying to accomplish here, which is getting to a ceasefire and ultimately a surrender and ultimately to people who's going to take over that country that's going to work with the United States and the Middle Eastern countries. That's a lot, though, to accomplish if you ask me. And I think there are plenty of problems here at home that maybe we should probably be focused on. See, these are legitimate criticisms. What you're hearing from Jason Crow, that's not legitimate. That's stupid. That's All right, now let's circle back here because the thinking in regards to why we are where we are, here's one perspective.

How do you see this and how does it play politically here at home? Well, I think the president had to do it if he could get terms that include an unconditional opening of the straight, which sounds like he's done. Had to look at that and soon. He has to do it because, look, people are in my latest poll, 51% support the war, 54% said it was justified. But 57% said, if he could get a good deal, he should take it. So I think it's a risky two-week period because it enables them to regroup. But on the other hand, the president, if he thinks he has a real opportunity to come out with a negotiated victory, then I think he had to do it. Yeah.

So that actually takes us to the question at hand and maybe we're unable to answer it at this moment in time. Is this an actual victory? Well, based on the information we have, the answer is no. because this is a two-week delay. Also, he called this a double-sided ceasefire, which means Israel really wasn't a part of this. So we'll have to talk about that as well. And number three, Iran still has leverage over the Strait of Hermoose.

That's the only leverage they truly had that means something. The fact that they now continue to hold that leverage is not a good sign for me personally. Now, let's go to Mike Tobin from Fox News. Here's what he had to say about Israel in particular. Take a listen. What are you hearing from the region? Well, the Israelis, for what they know so far with the details in this two-week delay in the war, they're not too happy with the details, but they say as President Trump's decision to make,

the Iranian response was to fire another missile at Israel. It wasn't five minutes from the time that True Social Post went up. Our photons lit up with another incoming missile. This missile was intercepted over Jerusalem, the shrapnel, came down. We've got no word of any injuries. It should be noted that wordhead going out through the IDF that we should anticipate a lot of missile fire tonight, and they have not taken that down yet. So that's a situation right now. Sometimes we see here in the Middle East that they will fire one just to be defined at the end, but it's also possible that word hadn't gotten out to the rocket

crew. Laura? Mike, so your view is that Israel was not involved in this at all and that they're unhappy with us, perhaps. What they say is they're not happy with the details, but they do say it's President Trump's decision to make. Okay, let's just pause for this quick, important update. Do you owe back taxes or have unfiled tax returns? Did you retire and suddenly get hit with a huge tax bill you didn't expect? Or are you a business owner with messy books and a balance that is owed to the IRS that you can't afford? This is why you have to talk to my friends at Tax Network USA. They know exactly how to handle your particular situation. They've been doing it for 15 years because you know the IRS is not

going to go away. And if you don't deal with it, it will get worse. So stop what you're doing. Call Tax Network USA Today. They will have a free game plan call with you. Well, they'll look at your particular situation, see what the IRS is asking of you, and then give you the proper course of action. So take advantage of the free investigation call with them today by giving them a call. That number is 1866-6-86-0279. That is 1-866-686-0279 or go to T-NUSA.com for slash devori. Now, based on that update, do we really trust that Israel will not launch any missiles? Of course, we don't trust that.

The president isn't going to control what Israel is going to do and vice versa, if you ask me. And although the White House has already said to CNN that, you know, Israel is a part of this. fire. We know that Israel has not actually issued an official statement, but someone did issue an official statement. And that takes us to this next clip from this Iranian official, who is the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Here's what he had to say. Breaking news, Iran's foreign minister just responding to Trump's ceasefire announcement. I want to read part of it to you. He says, if attacks against Iran are halted, our powerful armed forces will cease their defensive operations. For a period of two weeks, safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz will be possible via coordination with Iran's armed forces and with due consideration of technical limitations.

Obviously, those words are crucial there. And the Supreme National Security Council of Iran has also issued a statement that I have here. And I'll just share you a couple of the important lines here. One of them is that the regulated passage through the Strait of Hormuz under the coordination of the Armed Forces of Iran, thereby conferring upon Iran a unique economic and geopolitical standing, which sounds like in a translation, Iran saying that they see this as acknowledgement that they control the straight-of-form movement. So that is going to be the main talking point tomorrow. You're going to hear that the president chicken out, just expected, especially for the immature folks on the internet. Then you'll hear mainstream

media say that he's giving up control of the Strait of Hamoos back to Iran, which is allowing them to essentially reset. And then three, that they don't believe the ceasefire is going to hold whatsoever and that the president doesn't know what he's doing. I'm just preparing you for what the talking points will be. Now, let's move to our next door, which comes out of the great state of California, which is a interesting story, a Salvadorian gang member, wanted for murder, thought he could turn his car into a weapon against ICE agents.

Well, he found out the hard way and got shot. And as you guys know, this is going to lead to an investigation because this whole a wrong situation's happening. No one's really talking about this, so it's surprising. But we will. Let's hear more on this. It starts with the witness car turning and onto Del Puerto Canyon Road at I-5. There is the incident right there on the right side of your screen.

You see them approach where the ICE agents had pulled over the suspect's car. And you see the three of federal officers standing by the suspect car when it starts to back up with the passenger door still open. The agents then draw their. weapons you can see the reverse and then starts to go forward as those agents are standing in front of the car you can see the driver moving forward you can see the driver going over the median there into the so two points here number one that it looked like a traffic stop to me that looked like an assassination attempt tell me if i'm wrong here okay now again people are distracted by what's going on in iran but guaranteed if this takes on nationally they'll be saying ice agents are killing people

again. And point number two, the suspect, who is he exactly? Salvadorian National believed to be involved in a murder back in his home country. He didn't come here for a better life. He came here to escape justice. Now he's finding out that the American justice system has finally grown a backbone. And that's exactly what this whole mass deportation operation is all about. Here's Brett Bayer confirming that he's a murder suspect. Take a listen. An alleged street gang member targeted for arrest by ICE agents was shot during a confrontation today in California. The suspect allegedly tried to run down an officer with his vehicle before being shot. A senior federal law enforcement source tells Fox the suspect is from El Salvador. He's believed to have been involved in a murder in that country. So the bottom line is that in

26, we're not asking these people to leave anymore. If we come across people who are the worst or the worse, we're going to get them out of there. And if they decide to use lethal force against ICE agents, we shouldn't be shocked that ICE agents will respond with lethal force. This is exactly what your local police officer would do. But again, when you have something called the dry-by media, they'll obviously try to make American people believe that ICE is the one terrorizing neighborhoods. But wait a minute, this man is in the country illegally. He's already wanted for murder back in his own country.

You don't want someone like that gone out of your own community? Because we know that's what the protests is. That's what they protest, right? hands off is what they call it. It's a sad situation. Let's hear more about this shooting. Take a listen. At breaking news in the Central Valley,

a shooting involving U.S. immigration and customs enforcement agents is under investigation. Now, this is happening just off of Interstate 5 in Patterson, on and off ramps of I5 are closed right now. Our NBC Bay Area Sky Ranger was overhead earlier as investigators were there on the scene. Now, the details at this point are limited. but we do know that a person was shot and taken to the hospital. No officers were injured. Stanislaw's Sheriff's Office says it is assisting in that shooting investigation,

but added that no local law enforcement officers were part of the shooting. That even though the local sheriff was assisting in the investigation, no local officers were part of the shooting. What does that tell you exactly? It tells you that California continues to handicap their officers from keeping people safe. that's exactly what it's telling us. You know, we've talked about this so many times. If they would just allow them to collaborate, I don't think we would get shootings.

I don't think we wouldn't. We wouldn't get these mass protests that happened. We wouldn't because there would be not only coordination, but there would be a way for the local police to not only block off certain areas, but to be prepared to obviously minimize the potential escalation, as they may call it. But, you know, I guess if you're not in support of mass deportations, obviously, you don't believe anything I just said. But let's go to Mark Wade and Mullen because he did have an interview and he kind of spoke about

deportations. Take a listen. With us and partner with us. Once again, I'm not going outside the policies that Congress passed for me. And we're not trying to push those. But we're saying you've got to partner with us. Some of the criticism is that the plan talked about was to go after illegal aliens with criminal histories or deportation orders.

but that it drifted and that there were more and more people being rounded up that didn't fall under that category. Where are you in this scale of what your priority is? Well, we're still going out for the most egregious felons and criminals out there. But at the same time, when you have a final order or you haven't showed up to your court dates because you claimed asylum and you didn't ever show up for asylum or you don't fit that category anymore, you're still in the country legal. Now, that doesn't mean that we're going to necessarily be hunting you every single day, but as we're doing immigration enforcement, we also have situations where local law enforcement picks up individuals that aren't in this country legally. When they do, we're also deporting those. If you're in this country illegal, you have a duty to self-deport, and we have a mechanism for that. We will actually give you money and pay for your flights for you to self-deport. And if you do it, you can come through this system legally. Because, you know, we have naturalization, five days a week here inside the United States except on holidays and weekends,

that people that went through this system legally did it the right way, now become legal citizens or illegal permanent residents. And so we're saying go through the system the right way. Yeah, everything you said there is what me and you already know. But Democrats don't believe in, will not support, and just will not compromise on, if that makes sense. They will die on that hill called St. Territory City policies, which takes us to some of the other things that Mark Wayne Mullen said, which one is actually shocking, he threatened to remove

customs agents who are working at the airports that are in sanctuary cities. The idea here is that you're willing to allow federal authorities at the airports to enforce immigration law, but as soon as we leave the airport, you're not willing to let us do that. How does that make sense exactly? Well, here's what he said. But Mr. Secretary, you know the issue here is that you have states and cities that are sanctuary, states and cities. And that's part of the issue. It's part of the problem. We saw it. Minnesota. How do you get around that? Well, I believe sanctuary cities, it's not lawful. I don't think they're able to do that. And so we're going to take a hard look at this.

This one area we may take a hard look at is some of these cities have international airports. If they're sanctuary city, should they really be processing customs into their city? I mean, seriously, if they're a sanctuary city and they're receiving international flights, and we're asking them to partner with us at the airport, but once they walk out of the airport, they're not going to enforce immigration policy. Maybe we need to have a really hard look at that because we need to focus on cities that want to work with us. So you're saying that big cities that are sanctuary cities that have a big airport, they might lose their customs? Well, I'm saying we're going to have to start prioritizing things at some point.

Right now, remember the Democrats are wanting to defund custom board of Well, who processes those individuals and they walk off the plane? So I'm going to have to be forced to make hard decisions. Who's willing to work with us and partner with us? Once again, yeah, so I think the bottom line here is they are still executing this mass deportation operation. They're still going after the worst of the worst. And Democrats will still disagree with it every step of the way.

So let's go to our next update. This is more about elections. And what happens when you elect radical individuals? First, we'll start with California. Then we'll end with Virginia. Listen to this. It is a top two primary system, as you know in California, otherwise known as a jungle primary, meaning irrespective of a party, all the candidates are running in the same primary.

And the top two finishers go on to the general election. So there were two Republican candidates that have substantial support in the race. You see here, Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco, the sheriff from Riverside, Kennedy. Those are the two Republican candidates. So they're in double-digit support here in that poll that you see. And the thinking among Republicans was, is this? their way to get both Republicans as the top two finishers blocking Democrats from a chance at winning the gubernatorial seat in one of the most Democratic states, the largest state in the

country, California. Now, I'm not sure that that is ever in the cards here if that was really going to happen. And what I think the Trump team looked at said, we don't really think two final Republicans is a real option here. So we want to get behind someone that we think has the best shot as a Republican to being in the top two. We don't want to. We don't want to. it to be two Democrats in the top two. And so I think they're putting their endorsement muscle behind Steve Hilton to see if he could be guaranteed with the MAGA Trump endorsement, a slot for a competitive California gubernatorial election come the fall. There's a couple of things that I find to be interesting about this endorsement of Steve Hilton

by the president. Essentially, the last thing you'd want California to have to go through is a Democrat and a Republican facing off against each other. You would, want a Republican and a Republican. So we want Chad Bianco and we want Steve Hilton. Now, this endorsement obviously could overshadow Chad Bianco and push him down, you know, if you really think about it. And then that would give Democrats the ability to put their candidate in the number two slot. Obviously, I don't know if that's actually going to happen, but that is my initial reaction to the endorsement. Secondly, I've been able to interview Chad Bianco. That interview comes out this week. We have not been able to interview Steve Hilton. He has not responded in any

capacity. Don't know why. It is what it is. But I do hope that they both do advance and it's a Republican and a Republican. If California advances a Democrat, I'm not in the belief that the Republican will win. That's just me personally. Anyways, let's hear what Ben Ferguson had to say about it. Take a listen. It's breaking news tonight. Short time ago this afternoon, President Trump officially endorsed Steve Hilton as the Republican nominee for governor to replace Gavin Newsom, complete and total endorsement, maybe not unexpected, but important as the June primary comes up. And Steve Hilton's basically in the lead. Can he turn California reg? A lot of people were skeptical, but he's got momentum now. I think it's got momentum, and I think people are sick and tired if you stayed in

California and you haven't left. California, remember, they've actually had an actual loss in population. That's how bad it is in California. And when you've got someone like this, that's out there willing to say what he's saying, people are listening. And then you got Eric Swalwell, for example, who's out there and people look at him. They're like, what are we doing? Like, are we ever going to get any better here in California?

Or are we going to keep running people off? And when you look at Swalwell, you look at what he's saying, I actually think there's a real outside chance now. This endorsement could be important. And there is a small chance a Republican could actually run that state for once in a long time. See, that's why if I was the president, I would be saying nice things about Chad Bianco and Steve Hilton. I would do whatever I could to avoid a Democrat being able to win the number two slide.

Because if it happens, again, like I said, I just don't believe a Republican will end up winning unless it's two Republicans, of course. Now, the bottom line to it, California has bigger issues than who's going to be the next governor. Their issues are really located in the state legislator. I mean, they are the ones who are really destroying that state. If you think about it, Gavin Newsom is really just the I. icing on the cake. These legislators have allowed him to run ramp it, but they are a part of the problem too. They really are. They're the ones passing radical policies. So even if you do, in the best case scenario, there's a Republican governor, you still, for the people who live in

California, you got to vote differently. You have to vote differently in your local elections. Failure to do so has led to what has happened to California. Because when you don't vote differently, you get exactly what's happening in Virginia. People are literally coming out with buyer's remorse at this point, and the governor has sunk to a new low as far as her approval rating. Listen to this. She rescinded the prior directive that ICE would not be able to work with our local law enforcement. Anyway, people are not happy with the job.

She's doing her approval rating now after a few months is 47 percent. Disapproval is 46. Approval is 47, which is not normal after three months. months in that area. Well, because Governor Yunkin left with a 54% approval rating, but he was term limited. He can only have one term. And so there's really no comparison. That was for the same period. Not even when he left. Exactly. So it's like, you know, when you lie to the voters and you say that you're going to be a moderate and you go in there, they're going to be a little upset about this. She's also want a corporate tax rate. She didn't talk about that on the campaign

trial. She's back on this climate nonsense as well. And Mikey Sherrill as well. Doesn't want to work with ICE, climate change, tax, the rich as well, and as a result, those businesses are now moving out of Virginia. We've done a few stories about Virginia up to this point, and most of them have been about fatal outcomes, as you guys know. I mean, I wish I didn't have to talk about it, but how else can we make the point that people like Abigail Spammerger are dangerous to your health, I mean, and to your safety, right? I mean, she wants to raise taxes, go after guns, lighten up sentences for criminals.

Do not. She clearly wants to not enforce immigration law. She doesn't mind it when illegal aliens join high schools, start groping teenagers. And then obviously people from Virginia getting murdered at the bus stops, at these bus stops. I guess that's not enough. Even a three-year-old is not enough for her. So I'm not shocked by the approval rating. It's going to continue to get lower as she continues to double down on these radical policies.

So why don't we go to someone who did vote for her? Here's briefly what he said. I think that she ran on a pretty moderate platform, but I think she's gone a lot farther left than a lot of people expected. Oh my God. What did you expect exactly? See, I will be stunned in 2028 if the country decides to vote for a Democrat instead of a Republican. I get it. Republicans are incompetent.

There is no doubt about that right now. But they're not bad shit crazy. They're not. And what you're seeing out of Abigail Spanberger, Zeramondani, that is crazy. You're literally running your good economic policies out the door by obviously discouraging large corporations to be headquartered there because you want to punish them for being successful. It just doesn't make any sense. It just doesn't. And get this.

They're not the only one doing radical things. Let's go to Minnesota. The legislator today just voted to tax unrealized gains. Take a look. Chair Gomez, please proceed with your presentation when you're ready. Thank you, Mr. Chair. So House File 4616 imposes a 1% tax annually on fortunes above $10 million. And so this is a different kind of tax base than we have in Minnesota,

and I believe a different tax base than anyone in the country, any state revenue kind of code in the country. touches. And, you know, this really comes from, for me, I've heard my entire life these statistics about the top 1% and how much wealth they own and how much income they get. And, you know, I'm in my mid-40s. It's just gotten worse and worse and worse. That's my perception is every time I hear somebody cite that statistic, it's like it's more shocking and it's worse. As of this year, the top 1% own more than 30% of the wealth in this country. It's $55 trillion.

And so they went on to essentially be the state that's seeking to tax unrealized gains. I'm not trying to insult your intelligence, but let's just say you are a homeowner out there today. The value of your home today is $500,000. And in the next 12 months, all of a sudden it jumps up to $750,000. You now owe Minnesota tax on that increase, even though you didn't sell your home, even though you'd even take money out of your home, which that wouldn't be taxable. But the point is they want to tax on that unrealized gains. It's out of this world.

But, you know, this is what we get when we're allowing these radical people to take charge of these states. They do radical things. And to put a button on it, listen to this clip. We had a big election last year in Virginia. Abigail Spamberger and Virginia Democrats won big because they told voters that they would reduce the cost of living and improve affordability in the Commonwealth. But this legislative session, a lot of Virginia Democratic lawmakers have proposed over 50 new tax increases and proposals. I'll read some of them to you.

They include additional local sales tax in all Virginia counties and cities, new personal property tax and electric leaf blowers and electric landscaping equipment, large employer tax, gun and ammunition. tax, new income tax brackets, a delivery tax. This would hit you if you ordered things on Amazon, Uber Eats, UPS, FedEx, etc. Investment income tax, event tax, concert tax, storage, storage, facility tax, gym membership tax, dog walking tax, dog grooming tax, counseling tax, got to catch my breath, digital personal property tax, new car taxes and highway use fees, increase in the hotel tax here in Arlington, statewide speed cameras. Now those aren't taxes, but drivers would pay more fines if that went through. A drying cleaning tax, concert tax, home repair tax, and a vehicle repair tax.

Now, I did reach out to Spamberger's office and Don Scott's office. He's the speaker here in Virginia as well as the leader in the Senate, asking them, how would all of this make life more affordable to you? We'll put their responses on our webpage, WJLA.com. All right, so that reporter, Mr. McNock, he's been on top of it since day one of her disastrous rain over that state. And unfortunately, whatever made Virginia great has gone out the window. So we should all just accept it at this point. And I pray for the people of Virginia as well.

But as we wrap up today's video, why don't you guys leave your thoughts in the comments section, whether it's the ceasefire, I guess, or two-week delay regarding Iran, or the shooting that happened in California, or what Abigail Spanberger is up to next? Just give me your thoughts, everything you got in the comment section below. Okay, so this takes us to our next video where Eric Swalwell is face. some damaging allegations. Women might be coming out accusing him of sexual assault. This could derail his chance to become the next California governor. And of course, Democrats lost their mind over the president once again. You guys missed out on those updates and more. Click on the video

because it's coming up right now.
