Starting point is 00:00:00 Donald Trump just called into Fox sounding high as hell. I'm not sure what's going on, but he's playing cleanup crew because his secretary of war, Pete Hegseth, had made a mess earlier today at a presser saying things like this. Iran's leadership is in no better shape. Desperate and hiding, they've gone underground. Cowering. That's what rats do. We know the new so-called not-so-s supreme leader is wounded and likely disfigured. He put out a statement yesterday, a weak one, actually, but there was no voice and there was no video.
Starting point is 00:00:47 It was a written statement. He called for unity, apparently killing tens of... Okay, so we said that, but Heist said Iran's leadership is underground. Well, folks have video that shows the complete opposite. Here's that. Iran's leadership is in no better shape. This is Iran's president. Desperate and hiding, they've gone underground.
Starting point is 00:01:13 Cowering. That's what rats do. Does it look like someone who is hiding and cowering? Now, Pete Hux that didn't stop there. He also said this, which is what Donald Trump, I think, was very, very, very. anxious about. This guy sounds, this guy sounds like he's way in
Starting point is 00:01:35 over his head. Yeah, right here. You have said that the U.S. military is essentially aerial superiority, naval superiority over Iran, yet we're not escorting ships to the Strait of Forme. Why? How did you not plan for
Starting point is 00:01:49 this? We plan for it. We recognize it. Because ultimately, we want to do it sequentially in a way that makes the most sense for what we want to achieve and ensure that we're sending the right signals to the world when we do so. So when Chris Wright speaks or we speak, it's based on a full assessment of what we're up against. If you can hear that, siren, I'm sorry, live in New York City, and it is always loud.
Starting point is 00:02:16 What we want to say to the world, how we want them to see and understand the conflict. It's like this whole idea of the war widening. That's what the press wants to make it look like, like it's widening and chaos. No, we're actually closing in on grabbing hold of, of and controlling what objectives we want to achieve and how we want to achieve them. What? What is he's just saying words? He's just saying words, y'all. Because ultimately, we want to do it sequentially in a way that makes the most sense for what we want to achieve.
Starting point is 00:02:48 And ensure that we're sending the right signals to the world when we do so. So when Chris Wright speaks or we speak, it's based on a full assessment of what we're up against what we want to say to the world, how we want them to see and understand the conflict. It's like this whole idea of the war widening. That's what the press wants to make it look like, like it's widening and chaos. No, we're actually closing in on grabbing hold of and controlling what objectives we want to achieve and how we want to achieve. No, actually, we're totally, it's not widening, we're grabbing hold of.
Starting point is 00:03:20 We're zeroing in on the objectives we want to achieve. What? It's called shaping operations and setting the, the conditions, but when you shape the environment, you don't always tell, I mean, foolish political leaders and foolish military leaders of the past will hang an exact deadline on it, or here's exactly when we'll do what we're going to do, or here's how long it's going to take us. And then if you meet that, maybe you meet it, but if you don't, you fail and if you're far beyond, we know exactly what we're shaping and why. We're sending those signals working across the
Starting point is 00:03:49 interagency. The Strait of Hormuz is something we've paid attention to from the beginning, and the American people can rest assured, we will ensure that our interests are advanced. No doubt. Whoa. Whoa. Okay. Well, if it's something that they've always considered, then why didn't they have a plan for this?
Starting point is 00:04:09 Because the straight of her moves, which if I'm being in frame with you, I didn't know it was a thing until a week ago. Apparently, it's very important. But I assume, I'm assuming Pete Hicksetton, the military had a bigger grasp on this than a YouTuber would. So then why is it that it has become such a leverage point for Iran if they were anticipating that? That doesn't really add up to me. And one more thing. Here is Pete Hagseth going full fascist on earlier this morning.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Yet some in this crew in the press just can't stop. Allow me to make a few suggestions. People look up at the TV and they see banners. They see headlines. I used to be in that business. And I know that everything is written intentionally. For example, a banner or a headline, Mid-East War intensifies,
Starting point is 00:05:07 splashing on the screen the last couple of days, alongside visuals of civilian or energy targets that Iran has hit because that's what they do. What should the banner read instead? How about Iran increasingly desperate? Because they are. They know it, and so do you, if it can be admitted.
Starting point is 00:05:28 Or more fake news from CNN. Reports that the Trump administration underestimated the Iran war's impact on the Strait of Hormuz. Patently ridiculous, of course. For decades, Iran has threatened shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. This is always what they do, hold the Strait hostage. CNN doesn't think we thought of that. It's a fundamentally unsurious report.
Starting point is 00:05:54 The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better. Good. I'm glad he's saying the quiet part out loud. I mean, I'm glad he's just admitting that Donald Trump and his administration need a press that is completely reliant on Trump. They need a press that is subservient. They need a press that are stenographers. I'm no fan of CNN. I'm no fan of legacy media,
Starting point is 00:06:28 but obviously they're doing something right if they're making this drunkard upset. But let's just remember, fascists need a press that says exactly what they want, when they want, because fascists have to create reality. They can't allow people to say what's actually happening. So this is probably not, going to make the biggest news of the day. But this is another sign that Donald Trump ultimately
Starting point is 00:06:59 wants fascism and his cronies are trying to help him achieve it. We won't let him achieve it. Thankfully, the media ecosystem here in America is too bifference. It's just, it's too, there's too many small pieces to control all of it, but they're going to do what they can to try to control most of it. But I think it's going to be a great failure, too, because remember, CBS is now owned by a billionaire right winger, and it has plummeted in the ratings. Like, just because you own the product doesn't mean that the audience has to buy it. So, sure, own CNN, own CBS. People are going to go elsewhere because, just because, again, because you buy the restaurant,
Starting point is 00:07:45 if you start selling shit sandwiches, people are going to stop going there. They don't want to eat a shit sandwich. even if you want people to buy it, they might not want to own it. Okay. Now, Donald Trump, as I said, was on Fox News sounding high as hell, baby, and also contradicting himself. Here is Donald Trump saying this about Tomahawks. Look, nobody has the technology or the weapons that we have, and the Patriots are an example of it.
Starting point is 00:08:16 We have the Tomahawks. We have the Patriots. We have stuff that nobody's ever been able to produce. They can't produce it like us. Now, correct me if I'm wrong. Didn't the Trump administration say that it was Iran who had Tomahawks, that it couldn't have been just the United States who shot that shot those schoolgirls and those school shot up that school?
Starting point is 00:08:43 I thought the Trump administration said that other people had Tomah. But no, Donald Trump's not saying that only they have Tomahawks. Doesn't that up? Doesn't add up? It's because they fucking did that shit. Okay. Donald Trump also said this about terrorists. How important would it be to get out that besiege force, the thugs that walked the streets and are we aiming for them? No, these are bad people. They go out shooting protesters. You're a protestor. They shoot you're right through the head. This is an evil group of people. And if we had them have a nuclear weapon,
Starting point is 00:09:18 they would use it and they wouldn't lose. These are bad people. They shoot protesters in the head. This is an evil group of people. So then what will we call those who shot Renee Good in the head? What would we call the people who killed Alex Pretty? Are they terrorists? Domestic terrorists?
Starting point is 00:09:38 I think that is a definition worth exploring. And then we'll end with this. Here's what Donald Trump said about terrorists. And say, yeah, this is about ISIS. I mean, how do you get into the... mindset of this? How do you stop? They're sick people. And a lot of them were let in here.
Starting point is 00:09:57 They shouldn't have been let in. Others are just bad. They go bad. Something wrong. There's something wrong. Their genetics are not exactly They're not exactly your genetic. It's one of those problems, Brian. It's a terrible thing. And it happens. It's a terrible things. And it happens.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Okay. I mean, again, like I've talked about this a couple days ago. and I'm not saying that Donald Trump and his administration are trying to set up for a false flag, but I would not be surprised if they did. Would you? I wouldn't be. This is a, I mean, this series of things I just watched you through, this is a desperate sounding group of people, desperate people do extreme things. So let's keep our wits about us, but the Trump administration wants to own the media. They want to try to control what you see in here. Thankfully, we have places like this. If you do like what we're doing here, do hit like, subscribe.
Starting point is 00:10:53 It helps the channel grow. It helps more people see it because that's the only way we can fight this is with truth. And we will fight it with truth with your help. Thank you. I'll see you soon.
