All right, the ceasefire was all BS immediately. Immediately. Israel continued to bomb residential and civilian targets in Lebanon. This seems to be a feature and not a bug of Israeli aggression where they attack innocent civilians. Pop up the Post. The Associated Press is reporting that at least 182 killed as Israel strikes central Beirut after saying Iran truce doesn't apply there. And then we have Al Jazera who is reporting 254 killed and 1,165 wounded. Lebanon's health minister says Israeli attacks since March 2 have killed at least 1,739 people and wounded 4,5873. And here is some video of the of this continued bombing by Israel with a financial assist from the United States of America. The mainstreaming and the normalizing of war crimes is just horrific. And I'm of the position right now that if any politician supports aid, any aid to Israel, that person should not be electable. It doesn't matter if they're Republican, a Democrat. This is insane. All of the money that we work so hard to. That we pay for the federal government is being shipped abroad for Israel to expand its borders. Meanwhile, we're told we can't have improved schools, we can't have universal child care, health care, tough titties, get a second job. Don't worry about that. It's. It's utterly insane how much United States politicians have prioritized this senseless and genocidal killing of civilians in the Middle east with American taxpayer money. Tell me, which Republican, which Democrat, which Independent that lives in flyover America? Once their tax dollars go into this, I don't think it's very many at all pumps.

What I would say to that is, you have a war that Donald Trump cannot win. It is humiliating all over the place for him globally, domestically. And he says there's a ceasefire. And Benjamin Netanyahu, who says, fuck you, I'm going to drop bombs. That tells me Benjamin Netanyahu has no respect for Donald Trump or anybody in the US Government that gets on there and rah rahs, because he's going to do whatever the fuck he wants to do with reckless, abandoned, and incidentally, I believe he has so much compromising information on Trump because of the Epstein files. But I'm not going to discount the fact that Donald Trump is just a bloodthirsty dick.
Political Commentator 1
Well, and also, you can't discount Jared Kushner and his long relationship with Benjamin Netanyahu and that Trump is intellectually lazy and will just delegate all of this type of policy, whether it be abusing Americans domestically. That's deferred to Stephen Miller. Foreign policy is sent to Witkoff, a real estate guy, and Jared Kushner, who, I mean, are. Are.
Political Commentator 2
We are.
Political Commentator 1
We could be more diplomatic pumps you meet than those two people can. That's how unqualified these people are. And speaking of unqualified, we have our vice president, America's biggest prostitute, J.D. vance, our little smoky eye sociopath. And here he is talking about the negotiated. Negotiated, I say in quotations. Ceasefire. Play the clip.
Audio Clip - Public Figures
Iran wants to let this negotiation fall apart in a conflict where they were getting hammered over Lebanon, which has nothing to do with them, and which the United States never once said was part of the ceasefire. That's ultimately their choice. We think that would be dumb, but that's their choice.
Political Commentator 1
Mr. Vice President. Okay, Lebanon was a part of the ceasefire. J.D. vance. You guys, as much as we all want Trump removed, we have to keep our focus on how diabolical and what a prostitute J.D. vance is. J.D. vance wrote a book, sold out the people that he was raised around. He's changed his name three times, his religion three times. He's owned by Peter Teal, who is this really weird billionaire that is not even an American. He's an immigrant, which is fine. I don't give a shit about immigrants MAGA cares about. And he purchased JD Vance and gave him to Donald Trump. Donald Trump doesn't even like J.D. vance. But J.D. vance is trying to position himself as this big anti war guy. And I just think we need to keep pressure on this guy at all times because should it happen, and you all know what I'm talking about when I say should it happen, we get this guy. And I just, I do not trust him. He's been over palling around with dictator, not even that great of a dictator. Victor Orban, you know, that's who he looks to for inspiration. All right, and then pop up this next one, Kylie. This all comes as new polling from Gallup shows a major shift in Americans views on Israel. 60% of Americans have a, an unfavorable view of Israel. And I think that if we pull this a month from now, it's going to be even worse. My problem with Israel and its defenders are they try to go after certain people that are critical of it. Maybe us, maybe certain Democrats, maybe certain people in media spaces. So you can do that or you want to, but your unpopularity is so massive now that you can remove any of the critiques of Israel and of Benjamin Netanyahu and the war crimes still remain, the genocide still remains, the reputational damage that you've done to yourself by killing little kids and innocent people and bombing residential areas. You're not going to be able to cancel your way out of it. The American public is done funding a genocidal homicidal regime. It's insane. And then the, the monitoring of people critiquing it and telling us we can't critique Israel. Yes we can. We absolutely can critique it and we should. It's the moral thing to do. All right. And then the tide is turning. It's not just us, it's not just people on the right. It's not just independence. Here is a post of John Favro, our friend over at POD Save America. He's been a guest on the pod. He says end US aid to Israel. And this is in response. ABC News reporting the same number as Al Jazeera. 254 people killed yesterday, the day that we announced the ceasefire. 254 people pumps.
Political Commentator 2
The thing about Israel is we've been preached that it's this democracy and we can't have peace in the Middle east without is support for Israel. My what I am coming to learn, and I am not an expert, but what I'm coming to learn is that the only way not to have peace in the Middle east is to remove Benjamin Netanyahu and remove this. We're going to take over the whole Middle east because this man will stop at nothing. He's certainly not going to stop because Donald Trump asks him to. And he is a war criminal and every time he leaves Israel he should be arrested at whatever country he sits his feet down on, just like Donald Trump should be at the end of all this, in my opinion.
Political Commentator 1
I agree with you. But this is not a one man problem. Just like the United States with Donald Trump is not a one man problem. You can remove Benjamin Netanyahu and you still have a problem. And I think he's probably going to be replaced with people far more radical. Just like if, if it happens here, if Trump kicks the bucket, we're going to have J.D. vance and then maybe Tucker Carlson and then maybe Nick Fuentes. This is, I believe, when you start normalizing in mainstreaming violence as we've done in the United States, towards over policing in black communities, towards normalizing school shootings and never atoning for that, never making it more difficult for people to get guns in the face of kindergarteners getting shot with an assault weapon over in the Middle east they just, you know, go and take people's land in the west bank and kill people with impunity. They're so IDF soldiers are sexually raping a prisoner and all those charges are dropped. And so you just start normalizing this depravity and it becomes cultural. And we have this problem in the United States and Israel has that problem there. There is a moral rot through both of these cultures. It's why they're partners in committing war crimes in the Middle east right now. And then in an attempt to win over Trump, Netanyahu is considering this and sadly this will probably work. Put this up. Israel is considering awarding President Trump an Israel Peace Prize during his next visit. And everybody does this to him. Tim Cook, the, the, the winner of the, no, the actual Nobel Peace Prize takes her trophy to him and then he starts a war in Iran and they kill little school girls. And then Benjamin Netanyahu do these people do Benjamin Netanyahu and Machado, the lady who won the peace prize and Donald Trump and all these people, they just treat us in such a patronizing, condescending way they think we're all stupid. I mean, you. I mean, Israel presenting a peace prize, Israel saying they're a great democracy, The United States of America saying we're a great democracy. It's all. All of it is bullshit, propped up by these oligarchs who fund both parties. And it just makes me so mad.
Political Commentator 2
You know what's funny about this is since the war started, I saw a clip of Donald Trump talking about how he didn't get the Nobel Peace Prize. Like, this man will not shut the fuck up about it. And here's the thing. He will go over there and he will accept it with pride and think, I am the winner of the Israel Peace Prize. I mean, it will be so exciting.
Political Commentator 1
We'll send out a tweet and go, you know what, Norway?
Political Commentator 2
You.
Political Commentator 1
You, Israel gave me my Peace prize. And everybody is saying that the Israel Peace Prize is now more prestigious. Prestigious Nobel Peace Prize. Everybody's saying the Nobel Peace Prize has no clout anymore. You can see it now. It's as predictable as. Remember when we were little, we'd have those dolls and you'd pull the string and it would say that, hi, I'm little Sally and I like to pee my pants or whatever. That's Donald Trump. You could just pull the string. He's a string doll. He's so predictable. And how pathetic. How pathetic for all these big alpha males in the bro sphere. They're like, we love the troops. We love patriotism. We love the military. That is the commander in chief of the military, a man that collects unearned participation trophies. That is your guy. That's your version of masculinity. Pathetic at best. Okay, moving along. Pumps your favorite person to hate, of course. I'm talking about teeny weeny, Department of War, Department of Defense, Pete Hegseth. And he celebrated the ceasefire right as Israel is ramping up their attacks on Lebanon. So he's saying this at the exact same time that bombs are going over to Lebanon. Play the clip.

Our troops, our American warriors deserve the credit for this day. But God deserves all the glory. Tens of thousands of sorties, refuelings, and strikes carried out under the protection of divine providence. A massive effort with miraculous protection.
Political Commentator 2
Miraculous.

Dude. 44 Bravo spoke for all of us. God is good.
Political Commentator 1
Put a sock in it. I cannot take it. It's so unbelievable that he is anointing God guided all of these missiles to kill all of these people. Like it. What is happening? This is insane. This is the United States of America. This is our military, and we are being dog walked by Benjamin Netanyahu because we have dipshits in charge. We've got M orange face running around collecting participation trophies and this guy who's on his knees like God, make sure the missiles hit their targets. We really want to double tap the school girls. And then we have a dip electorate that laps this up. It just, it's so maddening. Pumps.
Political Commentator 2
You know, Pete Hegseth is absolutely the biggest embarrassment on planet earth, like Donald Trump is. Pete Hegseth's right behind him. And I would just ask him, pete, do you believe that the little girls that killed in Iran, that God didn't love them? Is that why? Because this man thinks that he has all this divine wisdom and he's demoting people and people are firing. And at the end of the day, he is bloodthirsty, he is a criminal, he is committing war crimes and his ass belongs in a cell. And he can get down on his knees for other reasons once he gets there.
Political Commentator 1
Oh, pops, love that.
Political Commentator 2
Fantastic.

All right, and then here is some juicy tea from the Catholic Church. This is so stunning, this story. Okay, pop this up. In January, behind closed doors at the Pentagon, under Secretary of War for Policy Elbridge Colby summoned Cardinal Christophe Pierre, Pope Leo XIV's then ambassador to the United States, and delivered a lecture. America, Colby and his colleagues told the cardinal, has the military power to do whatever it wants in the world. The Catholic Church had better take its side. As tempers rose, one US official reached for a 14th century weapon and invoked the Avignon papacy and the period when the French crown used military force to bend the bishop of Rome to its will. So we have keep this up for just a second. We have J.D. vance who has just written a tell all about his journey to Catholicism. Meanwhile, the administration that he's in is bullying the Catholic Church because the first American Pope is a little bit too Jesusy for them. And I'm talking about the brown Palestinian Jew version of Jesus, not the white mega church capitalist Erica Kirk version of Jesus. And then Pedro Gonzalez here says, he says the Catholic Church has become the greatest moral critic of Donald Trump and J.D. vance, Mr. Super Catholic. In response, the White House made a thinly veiled threat about using military force against it. The Trump Vance administration is not just anti Catholic, it is against any higher power other than its own authority. This is staggering. This is stunning. They are trying to threaten. They are threatening the Catholic Church. It's unbelievable. And here's the thing, like several years ago, it's like the Catholic Church because of all the Child rape. I mean, I'm just like, that should be brand damaging forever. And I'm the biggest atheist on the planet. And I like this Pope. I like that this Pope is standing up for the radical kindness and the radical love that the central character of the New Testament Jesus Christ preaches. And so this is just crazy. The hubris, the maniacal nature of this regime to go bully the Catholic Church. Stunning.
Political Commentator 2
Well, and let's just think about it this way. If they don't want someone to disagree, they threaten force. They threaten the military against them because they don't want to hear opposition. So they're threatening force against one of the most powerful religions on the globe. And I look at that and think, if they are willing to threaten the Catholic Church, what is Joe Blow that goes to the voting booth at the midterms? What can he expect from this government? And that is terrifying.
Political Commentator 1
And it also is a huge indictment on all of the mega church prosperity gospel. How easily they don't stand on principle. How easily they bend the knee to a lying, murderous regime of the United States of America government full of dirty cops and people who pray that missiles kill innocent civilians. It shows you just how morally corrupt and what a goddamn racket the whole mega church scheme is in the United States of America. Because Donald Trump says, jump, and they say, oh, how high? All right, that's all we have. Like, subscribe. We'll be back later with more news.
