We may be witnessing the unfolding of a fairy tale in this country. And we've got to ask ourselves why. Why would the Trump administration, through the FBI, tell us that we could potentially be droned by Iran? Why would they say that to us? Now, we do know that there's been reporting that has actually been tampered down that the U.S. could be facing a terrorist attack because of the war. or we've started in Iran. But that's not what we're talking about here. We're talking about specifically this story that the FBI wants out here. It's very interesting to me. Because as we know,

Donald Trump owns the FBI. It's not independent. Cash Patel does and says whatever Donald Trump wants him to. So let's watch this report with those fresh eyes. And then we'll talk about it after. Warning of possible Iranian drone attacks on our homeland. A new alert reviewed by ABC News, revealing Iran's aspirations to conduct a surprise attack specifically against unspecified targets in California. The FBI saying it's warned police departments across the Golden State now of strikes by unmanned aerial vehicles or drones as tensions rise in the Middle East.

Let's get straight to our chief investigative correspondent, Aaron Kinturski. Aaron, what are you learning? We've reviewed an alert that came within the last couple of weeks, Kira, just recently, from the FBI to law enforcement agencies up and down the California coastline, warning that Iran is aspiring now to perhaps launch some kind of a retaliatory attack on the U.S. mainland using drones on the west coast. The alert that we reviewed said an uncorroborated report suggested that unidentified Mexican cartels. leaders had authorized attacks using drones carrying explosives so they know that capability exists. And the separate alert that we've reviewed, Kira, says that Iran has those same kinds of aspirations. So the U.S. has broadly known for some time that drones could be deployed against the homeland. We know that Iran has been using drones significantly in this 12-day-old war with the United States.

That's what killed the first six U.S. service members in this war. But now the FBI is specifically warning police agencies in California along the Pacific coastline that Iran is aspiring to use them to attack in the West. So why California? Why the West? Good question. And that's not exactly clear. But perhaps there's thought that Iran has these things pre-pillar. positioned on ships that are still in international waters or that could float through international waters. We know that we've previously reported Kira on Iran's desire to perhaps activate sleeper cells in the United States, although that's certainly far from confirmed or far from anything operational as far as law enforcement knows. It's not clear why the West Coast as opposed to

the East Coast, but that's what the alert from the FBI says. All right. So, I don't pretend to know whether or not this is true. I'm not going to be a conspiracy theorist, okay? I'm not. And I think it would be insane for us to take our government at face value. I think it's very sad that we are in a situation where we cannot trust the government. Perhaps we never should have. But Donald Trump and his administration lie, nonstop.

They're even lying about. bombing school children. They're lying about gas prices. They're covering up the Epstein files. So is this a government we can trust? No, absolutely not. So why would they lie if let's just assume that we can't trust this government and that they would perhaps want to create a narrative? Well, there's a couple of things here. One, perhaps they know that what they're doing in Iran isn't going to last forever. They've got to create a new narrative. They've got to throw something else out. in the air to distract us further from the Epstein files. It could be one way. Two, I do wonder, and I wouldn't put it past them actually, that they're trying to create some sort of false flag.

That's certainly what the internet has been discussing, that Donald Trump wants to create chaos here because we do know that Donald Trump is very, very, very worried about the midterms. So what better way to say you need emergency powers and then creating your own emergency powers? And then creating your own emergency and what they're doing here is trying to manufacture some sort of consent perhaps. Or maybe they're telling the truth. I don't think so. Donald Trump took it further, though, and said this. And if they try to hit us back, have you been briefed about how many Iran's sleeper cells there could be inside the U.S. right now? I have been, and a lot of people came in through Biden

with this stupid open border. But we know where most of them are. We've got our eye on, all of them. I think. If it does things, they came in through the open border policies of sleepy Joe Biden, one of the worst, the worst president in the history of our country. And we've got to rise on all of them. But the war itself is being prosecuted at a level. So the narrative is constructing itself. Joe Biden, led in bad people.

The bad people are here. Donald Trump couldn't have known about it. They know about most of them, but not all of them. And because of Biden and because of them trying to protect Israel, they've retaliated, they were already here. And so then they blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then people get hurt. The question is, like, what do they do after that?

And I think they try to grab as much power as possible. They are all saying this. Here's Ted Cruz saying the same thing. Are you concerned about sleeper cells? There's been discussion of that. Look, the risk of terrorism right now is quite high. We tragically saw in Austin, Texas, just last weekend. We saw a terrorist attack.

We also saw another terrorist attack in New York City. There is a heightened danger of terrorism right now, and I will say it is particularly indefensible, that Democrats have shut down the Department of Homeland Security while we are facing an enhanced terrorist risk. The Department of Homeland Security exists to guard against terrorist attacks. The danger has never been higher than right now, particularly after four years of open borders under Joe Biden.

we know that radical Islamic terrorist entered this country and there's a vulnerability all across this country. It is disgraceful and indefensible for the Democrats to vote party line not to fund the Department of Homeland Security right now. We need to open it up and fully funded. I mean, they're really, they really are laying down all the pieces, right? Joe Biden had the open borders. We can't because DHS is partially funded right now. We can't watch everything. They're really laying out the story, babe. They're laying it out. As someone right here, this doesn't make me scare that Iran is going to bomb me. It makes me scare the U.S. is going to bomb me and blame it on Iran.

Yeah. As Tom Piker said, very difficult for me to read this is anything but a potential false flag set up. I'm not going to lie. I think we're all kind of feeling that. And let's just put a exclamation point on this because the Pentagon is wasting our money. They just told us how much this war that no one wants is costing. It's going to shock you. President Donald Trump's surprise war on Iran costs the United States over $11.3 billion in his first week.

$11.3 billion of had a brief Congress about the estimated cost of Operation Epic piece of shit early this week. The estimated cost is more than the entire population of America, over 342 million people paying $32 each. $32 each. And by the way, we're racking up new charges every day. And in just the first weekend of the war, the Pentagon told Congress that it had spent $5.6 billion on advanced munitions, including Tomahawk cruise missiles alone that, of course, killed children in an elementary school.

So, I don't know. I don't know. We will see what happens. I hope nothing happens at all. But it's a bad place to be that we don't trust. trust our government. We can't trust what's coming out of this. The FBI, Trump's mouth, and we are engaged in a war that's costing us billions of dollars with no clear objective and no clear way to get out of it. It's not a great recipe we're in right now.
