Republicans are waking up to the fact that Donald Trump lied to them. I mean, it's not the first time that Donald Trump has lied, but I guess this is the first time we're starting to break through. Marjorie Taylor Green is exposing Donald Trump. Ted Cruz accidentally said the truth about what's happening in Iran. And Lindsey Graham also is acknowledging that there's no plan for what Trump has done in the Middle East. There never was a plan.

There never will be a plan. It's just doing whatever Israel wants and Donald Trump opening his mouth and saying, yes, daddy, yes, daddy. Okay, let's go to this first because, as I said, Lindsay Graham said that there's really nothing that the president has in mind for after this initial moment. Moving forward in a social media post Sunday, President Trump wrote this quote, Hopefully the IRGC and police will peacefully merge with the Iranian patriots and work together as a unit to bring back the country to the greatness it deserves. Is hope the plan for the future of Iran? No, the future of Iran is going to be determined by the Iranian people.

The new Iran, whatever it is, whether it's a cleric or a representative democracy, Our goal is to make sure it cannot become again the largest state sponsor of terrorism. That's a win for us. But is there a plan to make sure that happens, Senator? Is there a plan? Does the president have a plan to guarantee that that happens? No, it's not his job or does the president have a plan to guarantee that happens? No, it's not his job.

It's not his job to guarantee that thousands and thousands of civilians. are safe, but it is his job to overthrow the government. I don't think I can square that circle. That doesn't make sense to me. That doesn't make sense to me. It doesn't make sense to Donald Trump in 2024 either, because here's what he said while running for president. I will tell you, you're not going to have a war with me,

and you're not going to have a third world war with me. That I can tell you. I will tell you. Oh, really? Okay, well, you lied. And he's not the only one that's changed their tune. Here is just a few of the MAGA influencers who said things like the amount of people trying to goad Donald Trump into bombing Iran is seriously alarming.

It's like we learn nothing from Iraq and Afghanistan. Stan Strong, President Trump, not our war. Then a couple days ago, wow, the U.S. military deployed a new technology. for these strikes against Iran, including using one-way attack drones for the first time. These were highly successful and over- Okay, so totally on board. You're going to get the idea. Katzard. No more U.S. involvement in foreign wars.

It's a year ago. There would be no war if Trump was president. And then Trump announcing military action in Iran. Just watching this fire. Okay. Okay. You get the idea. So, J.D. Vance also, I'm not going to read this to you, I'm not going to, this is a three-minute

clip. I'm going to spare you your time. But J.D. Van said, our interests, I think, very much, is not going to a war with Iran. Kamal Harris kind of likes wars. They seem to be sleepwalking us into a war with Iran. Of course, we all know that's what they have literally done. Now, as I said, Ted Cruz accidentally said the truth about what's happening in Iran. Here's what he had to say. You tell us now if you believe that there was an ongoing nuclear weapons program, one of the top arms control experts out there, David Albright, has written there should be an immediate priority on rapid response operations to secure Iran's nuclear stockpiles right now. Can you assure the public that it will be secured? And if so, who is doing it if there are

no Israeli or U.S. forces on the ground? So there is no doubt that a year ago, Iran had an active and ongoing nuclear weapons program. We took out the vast majority of that at the end of the 12-day war. That U.S. intelligence assessment was not made public, if that is what was brief to you. We took out, we launched targeted bombs at the end of the 12-day war, where we dropped the equivalent of about a third of a nuclear weapon on those underground facilities, facilities like Fordo, which is built into the base of a mountain, the bunker buster bombs we used, Israel doesn't have those bombs, no other country has those bombs. We took them out last year.

The Iranians were still hell-bent on rebuilding them, and one of the things we are doing right now is taking out their missiles, in particular the southern missile belt. Right now, Iran is building roughly 100 missiles a month. They are actively building missiles. threaten their neighbors. They're firing some of them right now at their neighbors. Yeah. They're illustrating powerfully. They're attacking virtually every Arab neighbor that surrounds them. They are firing missiles that it's almost like they want to illustrate to the world just how malign they are. But in terms of containing the risk, who's securing the nuclear material that you say still exists within Iran? Who's doing that? Look, the quantity of nuclear material,

I didn't say anything one way or another on that. What I said is they were building nuclear weapons a year ago, and our bombing took that out. They also had an ongoing desire to rebuild them. I don't have present-day intelligence on what progress they had made towards rebuilding nuclear weapons since we bombed their facilities. I have no indication that they were anywhere close to getting nuclear weapons because our bombing was devastating.

Okay, okay. So if, as the senator here says, that there is no indication that they were close to building nuclear weapons because our bombing was so devastating, then one has to ask, what the hell were we doing? Why do we need to do this today? What was the imminent threat? Now, I agree. Like, that was a bad man. He definitely deserved what he got. But I think there is a moral way of going about this.

And I think what we have done is quite frankly immoral. Now, Nick Fuentes is also, he's telling Republicans not to vote. Something has gone horribly wrong. All of those people, with some exceptions, were never Trump or in 2016. Shapiro didn't vote for Trump in 16. Mark Levin was critical of Trump in 2016. Where were these people when the movement was actually born,

when those pillars were in place? Now all of those people are in the center. The movement is something else now. And what we need in 2008, this is our last chance. We need in 2026 for this administration to be shut the fuck down. What does this administration do? other than cover up the Epstein files, embezzle money through government contracts,

and bring us to war for Israel. This administration needs to be shut down immediately. Do not vote in the midterms, and if you do, vote for Democrats. Fuck this. That is what the Republicans deliver. That is what our golden age looks like. The tariffs were refunded.

The deportations were stopped. They wound down and withdrew the ice from Minneapolis. What does this administration do other than embezzle money, go to war with Iran, and bury the Epstein files? Oh, and blackmail Harvard, so they police anti-Semitism and ban people who criticize Israel from being in America. This administration needs to be shut down immediately. It has forfeited its mandate. They promise no new wars. They promised mass deportations in America first. And we're not. not getting any of it. So shut it down. I mean, that's pretty incredible. I am happy. I'm happy

that he feels that way. I agree. Vote for Democrats. There is only really one solution to get out of this, and that is for Democrats to gain power. Now, I think we got work to do on our side because I'm not happy with establishment Democrats at all. And if and when, they gain control, it won't be because they've been doing a great job standing up to Trump. It'll be, it's just going to be because they're not Trump and they're not the Republicans. I think winning by default isn't really winning. It's not like the American people are giving you a rubber stamp or a mandate. It's just that they're saying, we can't do this anymore.

And I guess, okay, okay, I guess, I guess if all I can have to eat is dirt and shit, maybe I'll just have the dirt that's kind of the options we have right now do you want a shit sandwich or a dirt sandwich I'll have the dirt sandwich for now but ideally we can make something better in the kitchen am I taking the analogy too far

okay and then Marjorie Taylor Green as I said spoke the truth about what's happening in Iran bombed Iran on behalf of Israel yes it was on behalf of half of Israel. We're entering a nuclear war, the World War three, because the entire world is going to erupt. And you want to know the people that are cheering it on right now, their tune is going to drastically change the minute we start seeing flagged drake coffins on the nightly news,

on Fox News that brainwashes all the baby boomers, and on CNN that brainwashes all the Democrat baby boomers. And that is exactly how this is going to go down. She also went on to say this to Laura Lumer because three U.S. service members were killed because of Operation Epic Theory, which sounds like it was created by a 13-year-old name. And Marjorie Taylor Green said this. This bitch is celebrating the death of American military members and thanking their families for their blood sacrifice. Lumer lost two congressional races because nobody respected her or valued her enough to elect her. But this is who Trump takes late-night calls from enlapsed up for praise and worship.

Lumer hated Charlie Kirk because he spoke against war with Iran. The same way I do, war with Iran is America last, and we voted against it the same way voters voted against Laura Lumer twice. And now Americans are once again coming home in flag-draped coffins for another stupid, pointless foreign war for foreign regime change on behalf of Israel. Laura Lumer demanded it and begged for it. Sign up for the military lawyer. Go to the front lines, Laura. Maybe then. They give you a gun.

You don't love Trump enough unless you go fight for Iran yourself. The reason why she's saying maybe they'll give you a gun is because she'll never be allowed to have one because she was put into a psychiatric hold. This woman is not medically. She's just not, she's not all there. I want to just end with this because this is where it gets scary. Israel's former prime minister is saying Turkey is the new Iran. So they're not stopping here.

And if history is any indication about what's going to happen in the future, we kind of just do whatever Israel asks. I don't understand that. But that seems to be foreign policy in this country is largely dictated by Israel. I don't understand it.

I don't get it. But it's not making us safer. In fact, now Americans are dying. And for what reason? For what reason? Because where is this? Yeah. So this.

So we are now escalating into a war. And on top of that, shipping through the Strait of Hermaz has effectively ground to a halt due to a massive regional military escalation. And so what that means is the Strait carries 20 to 3rd. 30% of global oil and similar share of LNG, per long disruption could push oil above $100 a barrel.

And Reuters believe the price could jump at least 10% when markets open on Monday. So again, I mean, I know this is a bad guy. I know he should have definitely been held accountable for the awful things he's done to tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people. but is this really our fight? Is this what we want to be doing? Do we want to be the police of the world? I'm kind of sick of interventionalism. Like, I just think we have so many problems here.

We want health care. We want living wages. We want prices to go down. And by the way, MAGA, I'm going to end with this. How's your vote going? You voted for the Epstein files to come out. You voted for prices to go down. You voted for no new wars.

And where are we? The Epstein files are being fought by our government to be released. We are escalating into wars. We are overthrowing leaders of countries in multiple countries. And prices are higher than ever. Was it worth it?
