so donald trump just initiated a trade war with china he says he wants to occupy gaza right now
all parcels inbound from china are not being allowed into the United States per
the U.S. Postal Service. Donald Trump has offered buyouts to get rid of the entire CIA. He's gutted
the entire FBI counterterrorism division and continues to fire more FBI agents. At the same
time, his Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, met with the
leader of El Salvador talking about shipping American citizens to prisons in El Salvador.
And then you have Vladimir Putin just mocking the United States and also mocking Secretary of State
Rubio's statements that he doesn't want to see the United States as
one of the main powers.
Rubio says he sees this as a multipolar world where China, Russia, and U.S. may play a role.
If you add all of this together, the playbook seems fairly obvious about what would you
do to try to destroy the United States of America.
This is not something, whether you are
a Republican or Democrat or independent from a red state or a blue state, you should be horrified by
this. Donald Trump's government freeze of funds, although they claim that it's actually not frozen,
it's affecting red states more than it's even affecting blue states, but it's affecting
everybody in the country. Donald Trump is destroying,
if not has totally destroyed by now, U.S. aid, which provided billions of dollars abroad as part
of America's soft power leadership to help countries, to help others, and to thereby help
America's national security. Donald Trump is next going to be gutting the Department of Labor.
So great work to the leader of the Teamster, Sean O'Brien, who took all of those photos with his thumbs up with Donald Trump and Mar-a-Lago and said Trump's going to be good for labor.
Donald Trump's about to destroy the entire Department of Labor.
Donald Trump also said today he's destroying or yesterday he said he's destroying the Department of Education and
he wants Linda McMahon, who hasn't even been confirmed yet, her first act to be to totally
gut and destroy the Department of Education. And again, red states depend far more than blue states
on Department of Education funds. But this is the havoc that Donald Trump is causing. Oh,
and by the way, all of that is going on, Donald Trump has revoked the temporary protected status of Americans who relied on it, like 600,000 Venezuelans.
We know the Venezuelan community were big Trump supporters, and now Donald Trump cut a deal with
Nicolas Maduro, the totalitarian dictator of Venezuela who seized power despite losing the election.
Sound familiar?
Where Trump's going to revoke the temporary protected status of Venezuelans,
for example, in southern Florida, who supported Donald Trump, who are big Trump supporters.
He's going to take him and either send him to concentration camps at Guantanamo Bay or
send him back to Maduro.
Maduro will probably kill them and torture
them.
The leopards are eating your faces.
By the way, this is Susie Wiles, Donald Trump's chief of staff.
You see her face right there?
That's the face of many a Donald Trump chief of staff and advisor.
When Donald Trump said he was going to occupy Gaza, send U.S. forces for a permanent occupation,
Donald Trump said he wants to level it, destroy it.
And then he says he's going to take Palestinians and just put them in other places to which
even in Saudi Arabia, they had to respond at 4 a.m. in the morning. And they said, yeah,
that's not happening. We will not have any relations with Israel until Palestine is
recognized as a state. But Donald Trump was acting as Benjamin
Netanyahu's butler during Benjamin Netanyahu's visit. By the way, even Netanyahu was uncomfortable
visually standing next to Donald Trump as Donald Trump was saying the quiet part out loud. And
Netanyahu was like, I think he's even going a little too far with what you're saying, Donald.
But this is the psychopath running the
United States of America right now and destroying our strength. Let me just show you this. This is
Donald Trump serving as Benjamin Netanyahu's butler. Let's play this clip right here.
As our editor-in-chief, Ron Filipkowski, said, I guess, what's the best way to distract from just losing your trade war
or your threatened trade war against Mexico and Canada the day before? Oh, well, why don't you
say your next move for your next act, you're going to level Gaza and have the United States
military occupation of Gaza? Because by now the truth is out. And I think one of the main reasons the
truth is out is thanks to platforms like ours that said that Donald Trump's deals with Canada
and Mexico for Donald Trump's threatened tariffs were fake deals. Canada already had $1.3 billion
in border security plans months ago. They didn't give Donald Trump anything. Well, they said they'll maybe have a
fentanyl czar. Donald Trump went from threatening to take the sovereignty of Canada and to conquer
it and make it the 51st state. Okay, I'll settle for a, you want to give me a fentanyl czar and
the same thing that you were doing months ago under Biden and that you then re-announced a
month ago or two? Yeah, let's do that. Then when it came to Mexico, Donald Trump agreed to have Mexico put 10,000 troops at the border. Mexico already has
like 15,000 troops. So Trump agreed to less troops at the border by Mexico. And Donald Trump also
agreed with respect to Mexico to impose an obligation on the U.S. to look at and investigate United States gun shipments into
Mexico. So Mexico got the better of that negotiation. Anyway, here is Donald Trump at
this press conference with Netanyahu yesterday saying the U.S. is going to take over Gaza.
We'll level it. We'll own it. Here, play this clip.
The U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip and we will do a job with it too. We'll own it. Here, play this clip. The US will take over the Gaza Strip and we will do a job with it
too. We'll own it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded
bombs and other weapons on the site, level the site and get rid of the destroyed buildings,
level it out, create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing for
the people of the area. Do a real job. Do something different. Just can't go back. If you go back,
it's going to end up the same way it has for 100 years.

proud of that statement, he posted it on his Instagram and all of his social media. He was
out there saying, look at what I said.
I said we're going to conquer Gaza.
America will occupy it.
And then you got all of these comments like impeach button, unlimited jobs and housing.
People just don't listen to what this man says, do they?
So we're just admitting we're going to invade places.
Now, this is people on Trump's Instagram right here.
Old man couldn't tell the difference between the Gaza Strip and a bacon strip.
I guess no more lower grocery prices.
Level it out.
WTF do you mean right there?
And then again, even Trump supporters were like, okay, can you do the lower grocery prices
things?
All the prices are going up, up, up.
And as I said before, Donald Trump is a WMD, a weapon of mass distraction.
But you got to take this stuff seriously.
He's threatening to occupy Gaza.
And when Donald Trump engages in this WMD, weapon of mass destruction, he is harming
our national interest too.
In Canada, they're still going to be boycotting American products.
Canada's pissed at Trump in America right now.
They're betrayed.
What do you think is going to happen abroad right now? As the Patriot takes account, says parents,
your children can now sign up to clear bombs in Gaza. This is who will lead them. And this is the
Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, a Fox News host who's the person in charge of our nuclear arsenal.
As our editor-in-chief, Ron Filipkowski, writes, I'm sure Americans at home and abroad all feel
safer tonight now that Donald Trump announced with Benjamin Netanyahu that the U.S. is going
to take over Gaza, level all the buildings, and forcibly remove the population. You might want
to cancel your vacation plans you may have had to Europe. And by the way, let's not forget that there were two plane crashes last week. Donald Trump gutted basically the FAA leadership.
He's gutted essentially all of the federal government. Oh, and let's not forget as well
that Elon Musk has put 19 and 20 year olds controlling our treasury department, seizing
control over the payment transaction system with all
of our private information from social security data to bank account information to medical
information, in my opinion, and in the opinion of multiple class action lawsuits that have
now been filed in violation of the Privacy Act of 1974.
As our editor-in-chief, Ron Filipkowskiowski writes, we were warmongers for wanting to help
our ally Ukraine fend off Russian barbarian hordes seeking to murder and enslave them.
But Trump, their peacemaker, wants to occupy Gaza and take long-term ownership of it for the U.S.
Are you kidding me? Unfortunately not. Even Russian state media
is mocking Donald Trump right now. Here's what they're posting. An American Gaza is still
American first, America first, Israel second, Israel first, America second. A complete fantasy.
Our enemies are mocking us. Our allies are a combination of horrified and disgusted. But what was Donald
Trump talking about? While Donald Trump removed the security details of his own former Secretary
of State, Mike Pompeo, I hope you're listening, Marco Rubio, and his own former National Security
Advisor, John Bolton, who have credible threats against their lives by Iran. What Donald Trump was also fixated on today was if Iran were to try to assassinate him,
Donald Trump says he left a note to obliterate them.
Here, play this clip.
You're unhappy to sign it if it's Iran and their proxies who threaten to retaliate against
you and your team by killing you guys or taking out Soleimani?
Well, they haven't done that. And that would be a terrible thing for them to do. Not because of me.
If they did that, they would be obliterated. That would be the end. I've left instructions.
If they do it, they get obliterated. There won't be anything left and they shouldn't be able to do it.
And Biden should have said that, but he never did. I don't know why. Lack of intelligence,
perhaps, but he never said it. If that happens to a leader or close to a leader, frankly,
if you had other people involved also, you would call for total obliteration of a state
that did it. that would include Iran.
So here's Donald Trump talking about those 19-year-old engineers who are working at Doge.
Play this clip.
Some of these Doge engineers that Elon Musk has helping him are as young as 19 years old.
That's good.
They're very smart though, Peter.
They're like you.
They're very smart people.
Thank you.
Has he, have you met any of these guys? No, I haven't seen them. They work actually out of the White House. They're smart people. Thank you. Has he met any of these guys?
No, I haven't seen them.
They work actually out of the White House.
They're smart people.
Unlike what they do in the control towers where we need smart people,
we should use some of them in the control towers where we were putting people that were actually intellectually deficient.
That was one of the qualifications is you could be intellectually deficient.
No, we need smart people. Some are young and some are not young. Some are not young at all,
but they... And folks, now we're seeing places like the Waffle House and others charging
50 extra cents per egg because of the Trump egg price spike, because right now all prices are going up, up, up. It's less affordable for you
to buy a home. Homes are more expensive. Prices are going through the roof. And now apparently
you can't even receive packages from China. So Donald Trump just destroyed so many people's
businesses who rely on drop shipping.
And also we're not going to be able to get packages from China anymore.
I mean, just think about how Donald Trump's intruding and ruining and destroying,
you know, like actively people's lives right now.
But the MAGA people, you know, the MAGA congressmen and women, they're into it.
Nancy Mace is like, let's turn Gaza into Mar-a-Lago. This lady Chaya Raishik
who runs libs of TikTok or whatever they call themselves, call it the MAGA strip. They're all,
and all these MAGA people are like MAGA strip. We love it. MAGA strip.
Folks hang in there. We got a lot to, we're reporting on a lot, but that's all that happened
or that's what's happened over the past 12 hours, 24 hours. We'll keep you posted with more always here on the Midas Touch Network.
