Well, you've heard a lot about the MAGA based trust cracking up and all of the division that's coming against Trump from his own people, etc. But Donald Trump himself is weighing in now and he's jerking the slack out of his own irresponsible MAGA mouthpieces that helped to build an audience running with him, but now they're fighting with him. And I'm going to suggest that it's not going to go well when he starts naming who he's marking as a cause of division. You know, the Bible says something interesting. It says mark them that cause divisions among you and have nothing to do with them. Mark them. And I think that the Bible applies to every part of a Christian life. And so if you're listening to people who are, who are actually off track and speaking out of anxiety and anger and frustration and they're tearing apart the agenda of what this president is doing, mark them. Mark them and make a note of it. Because if you don't guard yourself, the Bible says take heed what you hear and take heed how you hear. You need to have discerning to know how to process what you're listening to. But then you also need to have this other element, which is I'll leave a seer piece in. You have to have the ability to not expose yourself to crazy stuff. So let's, let's start with Donald Trump weighs in because Mark Levin has been standing with him with what he has to do in Iran. And Trump says, hey, just bring up image 21. He comes to the aid of Mark. Mark Levin, a truly great American patriot, is somewhat under siege by other people with far less intellect, capability and love for our country. Marcus, tough, strong and brilliant, hence the nickname the Great One, conceived by our MAGA friend and wonderful Sean Hannity. So what's Trump doing? He's saying, you guys that are standing with me, I'm going to call you out. Those that are standing against me, I'm going to diminish. Mark would often do Sean show, speaking as a lawyer, and Sean realized, as did others, that he was special, actually. Mark Levin, for those of you that don't know, this, got his start with Rush Limbaugh and Rush. He started sending faxes to Rush and he'd fax his, you know, EIB radio network where Rush would do his show, and he'd read. He'd read these faxes from Levin and he would give him a kind of like a fake name as some kind of doctor or something like that, because he always kind of like, made up names for people. And he was the one that started putting Mark in a position where you've got something to say. Then Hannity said, you know, stop taking notes and handing them to me. Get in front of a microphone. Levin didn't want to do it. Levin said, I'm not a broadcaster, and you see him when he's on, you know, he's kind of a frustrated lawyer telling people political history. But Levin wasn't looking to do television or radio or anything else. Trump says he was drafted by very smart people who understood that there are few like him. He's a true conservative in intellect, far smarter than those who criticize him. But above all, he's a man of great wisdom and common sense who truly loves our country. When you hear others unfairly attack Mark, remember they are jealous and angry human beings. Uh oh, Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, and some other friends of mine that I won't mention. Trump's basically saying he's got common sense and loves our country. And he's with. He's got wisdom. And others are unfairly attacking Mark because they're jealous and they have much less public. And the public understands and will know that, you know where I stand, other than for this wonderful wife and family. Mark Levin only cares and wants one thing, greatness and success for America. Those who speak ill of Mark, this is a long defense, don't you think? When the president takes this much time will quickly fall by the wayside. Those that speak evil, he's prophesying, all those critics will fall to the wayside, as do the people whose ideas, policies, and footings are not sound. They are not maga. They're not maga. I am of Trump. Trump is maga. And MAGA includes not allowing Iran, a sick, demented, violent terrorist regime, to have a nuclear weapon to blow up the United States of America. The Middle east and ultimately the rest of the world. MAGA is about stopping them cold. And that's exactly what we're doing. God bless our great military, which I have rebuilt since the beginning of my first term to achieve everlasting peace through strength. Make America great again. Thank you for your attention to this matter. President Donald Trump. Well, without mentioning his enemies, everybody knows who Levin's critics are. So Megyn Kelly took this very personally. I don't think Meghan's going to be on Trump's good list. I think he's going to start to be even more specific about who the enemies of MAGA are. But go ahead and play her outraged response to this, to this statement, rather
- [08:39]
Megyn Kelly
than dealing with it like a man, by making a joke about it, whatever, ignoring it, rushing me back from the plate. He actually ran to the President of the United States. He ran to Donald Trump and had Trump send out a nice tweet about him last night, overnight. And it was a ridiculous tweet for which now the President is getting blowback because he does not have his finger on the pulse of where his party is right now, which is very unusual for Trump. This is very strange, the tweet. It's very strange that Mark Levin couldn't fight his own battle. But, you know, like true, pathetic, weakling bullies, he's all bark and no bite as soon as you punch them back. And look, I'm all for taking the high road, and I did try, but after 111 tweets, increasing the security profile in my own life and attacking me in the most vile terms, I think anybody could see that I was entitled to one below the belt punch. And sure enough, he didn't know what to do. He went crying to the President, who's running a war right now, not to mention the country. It's crazy that this happened. And Trump sent out a truth late last night, I'll read to you, in part, calling Mark Levin a truly great American patriot. He's somewhat under siege by other people with far less intellect, capability and love for our country. Mark is tough, strong, and brilliant. I mean, so what he's saying is if you criticize Mark Levin, he says those who speak ill of Mark will quickly fall by the wayside. They are not maga. So you cannot be part of the MAGA movement if you speak ill of Mark Levin. That's where we are. That doesn't hurt me at all. I've not been part of the MAGA movement again. I will stay MAGA adjacent, which is where I am happily but he is going to further destroy his own coalition if he continues with this.

Okay, so I want you to hear the whole agonizing response of Megyn Kelly. She's not maga, remember that. So she's, you know, she's got an opportunity to build an audience. But when you're listening to her, she doesn't make America great again. She isn't a part of the movement that has been on the ground since 2016 fighting in order to hit every institutional reform that's necessary. But when she says, I want you to catch this, that he went crying to Trump, she doesn't know that that's a journalistic make believe. So how do you know that? Trump doesn't watch the debate going on and Trump doesn't look at the critics that are, that are carving up his, his unity in his party. But here's the point, if indeed he has a war that is on his shoulders. Now, Megan isn't helping because she's, she is undercutting his credibility, questioning his judgment, challenging his strategy. She's actually working against the President. I'm going to give you one more quote here. Image number 19. Mark gives a short response to her video. Poor Megyn Kelly, an emotionally unhinged, lewd and petulant wreck. She's completely revealed and destroyed herself. She's everything people say she is, but much worse. Never an intelligent, thoughtful or substantive comment. Utterly toxic. Well, here's the reality. It's not that she's not intelligent or that she's not, you know, thoughtful. She can be substantive and she can, it all depends on where the, I'm sorry to say, where the flow of the audience goes. And she's got her relationship with Candace, her relationship with Tucker and her relationship with the people that are the critics of the MAGA movement. And that's where I think she does hurt herself. Because those that are discerning and looking at this can see that she's actually in the camp that is fragmenting the unity and cohesion of the people behind Trump while he is taking care of, and we'll get into this in a second, the threat that Iran revealed they had 400 kg of nuclear grade plutonium processed and ready to go into ballistic warheads. And they revealed it to Trump's negotiating team as a tactic to push them into reconsidering how they approach Iran. You better treat us with respect. We actually are very close right now to being able to make good on our nuclear aspiration. And that was all Trump had to hear. He said, you guys are that Close. Well, then in that case, we're not going to take any chances. You know, I'm telling you something you got. It's difficult to stay stress free when you're, when you're realizing the spiritual warfare that is going over the minds of America on the under 30 crowd. It's like only 13% of 18 to 34 year olds actually like Israel. That ain't good. That's not good for the United States and that's not good for the future of what that generation is going to vote for. When we come back, I want to talk about what Trump is doing with taking over Cuba and finishing his strategic assault on Iran. Most people don't realize this. We've had presidents ever since Kennedy trying to deal with what to do with this anti American Russian base of opposition that we've had in our own backyard. Once Trump went down and took Maduro out, he cut off the oil that goes to Cuba and it's now they therefore have no income. And then he put a warning out, nobody deliver oil. Russia, hint, hint, because I'll sanction you severely. We'll intervene if you try to prop up this, this, this communist country that is right off the coast of Miami. And what's happened is they're now without power, their energy has dropped and the people are finally rising up and saying this isn't what we want. And so Cuba is now open to capitalism. They want investment, they need to have relief. They're changing their tomb and they're trying to negotiate with Trump. You know what Trump said after I deal with Iran and I've settled it, we'll deal with Cuba and maybe I'm open to some negotiations. So he's holding them way out here, leaving them in a place of tension where they have to start to work with Trump. One thing he's going to require is that the communist dictatorship at the top of the country step aside and give him someone he can work with where there can be investment and frankly, a capitalism that goes into this hemisphere so that from Venezuela to Colombia to Mexico to Cuba, the cartels and the, and the Middle east no longer, and Russia no longer have a backyard to torment America. He's cleaning up this whole hemisphere for the United States. We'll be right back.

What's happening now with our beloved Tucker? I mean, we were, we were so excited about him and we gave him standing ovations at MAGA rallies and suddenly he's become adversarial with the administration. And, you know, he had that experience where he was attacked, demonically clawed. And I never put the two things together, but I always felt that that would help inspire him to a more earnest and sincere in depth exploration of faith and spiritual warfare. But I don't know who influences. You know, it's like when Bob Dylan got saved. You start to wonder, well, who's around there that actually can help these guys? If you have the wrong voices talking to you, then you might even be more vulnerable. And I'm afraid that Tucker's. He has a visceral hatred of Netanyahu. It's irrational. He's an intelligent man. I watched him in an interview. His face just suddenly got formed into like a Haman like scowl looking at Mordecai. And he just hates Netanyahu because in their brain, the anti Semitic virus starts to put in your brain that that guy is manipulating the United States. That guy, like 11 million people are going to control, you know, Donald Trump and what he wants. Nobody can control what Donald Trump wants to do. But this is an interesting. Tucker says that the Justice Department is coming after him. And I don't, I don't think they're coming after him. But he's a journalist that has that. As a journalist, he should be able to say whatever he wants. And he should, and he should. And he should articulate his position and then hear intelligent arguments back. He's a, he's a smart guy. But when you have a bias, once you have a lens that you put on your eyes, you see everything through that lens until you take the glasses off and look at it. Nobody who reads the Bible can support a hostility. The Apostle Paul made it very clear that blindness in part has come upon the Jewish people and Israel in order that the fullness of the gentiles may come in. And after a certain harvest of gentiles, at the end of the age, God turns back to Israel and all Israel shall be saved. That's the Apostle Paul in the word of God. In Romans, he was a Jew who wished that he himself would be cut off if it would mean that his people could get saved. But God has a blindness on them. But that blindness is nothing compared. At least it's not a blindness that is promoting transgender surgery and the annihilation of the economy with a trillion dollars worth of plundering, which I'm going to talk about in a minute, which J.D. vance is now authorized to make that his, his litmus test to prove that he is qualified to be the next president. He's going to take on the fraud that is mostly in New York, California, Illinois, and mostly Democrat states where they feed the fraud machine because it's all part of their, their coalition. But I got an interesting article here. I'm going to read it to you. This is from Juan do strange thing, because it suggests that, that maybe Trump knew that Tucker is on speed dial with sources in the Iranian regime because they quote him in Iranian news as a supporter for people that are on their side against Trump in the United States. But I'll read this to you because I'll leave you to judge it because I don't know. It seems like Tucker Carlson was talking to Iranian officials, telling them about the U.S. government. And when Trump found out, he did the smartest thing in the world, he invited him to the White House even more to feed him false information to throw the Iranians off the scent. According to several insiders, Trump started inviting him to various meetings where he deliberately talked about Iran, saying they weren't going to attack. There are several photos from a few days before the attack on Iran of a meeting between Trump and oil executives where you could see Tucker's present in the room there. When asked about Iran, he said there's no chance of going to war or launching coordinated attacks with Israel. It seems Tucker passed that information and that message on to Iranian officials because the ayatollah stopped hiding in his bunker. They must have trusted Tucker info so much that the Ayatollah even came out in broad daylight to hold a meeting with his top government brass in his office. And that's when Trump hit him with a missile strike and took him out. Now that the, now that Tucker's no longer useful, Trump sent the FBI to investigate him for foreign espionage and collusion with Iran right down to the hands. So Tucker is obviously upset about that. And I guess he explains it that the CIA is reading his text messages. But I think what they might be looking for is was he communicating with the regime information? That was his opinion coming out of conversations with Trump. Because if this guy's premise is accurate, then he was used by Trump in order to send exactly the wrong message so that the surprise element of what Trump was really going to do could be made manifest. Tucker, of course, and I like Tucker, and I'm praying for him. You know, you cannot treat people that are adversarial to your beliefs as enemies. The Christian has to be particularly careful about that. A lot of us in this movement, I'll tell you, you nullify your effectiveness to pray when you harbor hatred or resentment and bitterness and destruction towards anyone. The Bible says to love even your enemies. It doesn't say you don't have them. It says that your attitude has to be. Remember what Paul told Timothy. It's a great verse. He said, always give an answer to those that oppose themselves, meaning that they're enemies of their own best interest by what they believe. But they. And he uses this language, having been taken captive by Satan or by the devil in order to do his will, who knows but that by your patient and anointed, tactful, constant speaking of truth, they might not be delivered from that deception. So I think that's how you have to treat this. Not as an enemy, but you have to also take heed as to what's going on. Now, Tucker explains in this video clip that the CIA is reading his text messages. And really, a journalist should be free to do what he wants to do, unless he's communicating confidential White House communication to enemies of the United States, in which case that's crossing a line. Maybe it's not, maybe it's not prosecutorial, but it's not good practice to be comforting and aiding and abetting the enemies of an administration that you're acting like you're friends of. Let's go hear what Tucker's defense is.
- [26:22]
Tucker Carlson
So the other day, I found out that the CIA is preparing some kind of criminal referral against me, a crime report, the Department of Justice, on the basis of a supposed crime I committed. What's that crime? Well, talking to people in Iran before the war, they read my texts. So the crime under consideration, apparently, would be the Foreign Agent act or something like that, acting as an agent of a foreign power. And I don't expect this to go anywhere. I'm not too worried about an actual criminal case against me for a bunch of reasons. One, I'm not an agent of a foreign power. Unlike a lot of people commenting on US Politics and global affairs, I have only one loyalty, and that's the United States, and have never acted against it. Its interests are the only interests I care about because I'm from here and I have a lot of kids, so that's not a concern. I've also never taken money from anybody. Don't need it, don't want it, and that's provable. And moreover, it's my job to talk to everybody all the time and try and figure out what's happening around the world. That's literally what I do for a living. And I'm not going to stop doing that, nor should I, I don't think. I'm also an American. I can talk to anybody. I have no secrets to divulge. So legally, I think the case is ludicrous and I doubt it will even become a case,
- [27:43]
Podcast Host
and I certainly hope that it doesn't become a case. But it also leads to curiosity about what he was communicating, who he was talking to and what he was divulging. That could be of a confidential matter. That was from briefings with the president. And even then, I think he's correct in saying that he isn't a foreign agent and he can't be held, he can't be shut down, because a journalist ought to be able. Unless you're Don, you know, Lemon going into a church, leading assault. I think he's probably safe. But won't it be interesting to find out if Trump was sending misinformation through him because he was aware that Tucker was communicating with his regime enemies? And that would not be beyond the reptilian shrewdness of Donald Trump to do so. So let's see what happens on that front. Hey, I want to just cover something. I had to get my Bible out, you know. You know what happens if you're not in the Word a lot. You actually even you're quoting the Bible isn't as sharp as it used to be. And I've got to change that, people. I'm judging that right now. I'm going to spend more time in the Word. The verses I was looking for earlier regarding what happens with, like I'm telling you, Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens. What's his crazy name? Infowars. What's that guy's name again? Alex Jones. Everybody knows Alex. The Spirit. In chapter four of first Timothy, the Spirit clearly says verse one. In latter times, some are going to abandon faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. In other words, there's going to be people that are saying, I'm a Christian, I believe in Jesus, I got my soul saved. It says they're going to abandon faith because of a deceiving spirit. But then Paul says something else here, which is important. How do you handle that? Well, I just. I shut them down. They're idiots. They're. No, no, no. Be careful about how you approach that. The Apostle Paul also said in his second Timothy, when he's mentoring this young man, he says those who oppose, he says the Lord's servant must not quarrel. Instead he must be kind to everyone, able to teach, and not resentful. Don't be resentful. Those who oppose him, he must gently instruct in the hope that God will grant them repentance, leading them to a knowledge of the truth and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil who has taken them captive to do what he wants. But you have to approach this with the attitude that they can escape from a trap because they're captive to do Satan's will, because their heads have bought into a lie. It's like Hamas hating the Jews or Hezbollah hating the Jews, or I'm sorry to say, the majority of Americans turning against Israel. So I bring the word of God out because mark this, Paul says in the last times there will be. In the last days there'll be times of stress. Because of what? It's not because of the devil, it's because men will be lovers of their own selves. Too much self love. That's what it's about. But I'll tell you what, I take care of myself. I'm going to down my level 10 liquid because you got to level up your nutrition. I got my friends on the staff taking this. I'm going to give some testimonies because I can feel the difference when the nutrients suddenly get into me that I'm not getting anywhere else. Go to level10liquid.com I'm going to have my libation now.

for healing, Learn more and sign the pledge@workingwithcancerpledge.com the President is winning the war with Iran and he's playing chess. Yes, he does does play chess at a higher level than the news can keep up with the New York Times can handle. And unfortunately the bombardment of propaganda out there is making it harder and harder for this president to get his message out. So we need folks like you to listen to this and get the word out. As of the last 48 hours, Israel has taken out one of Iran's most effective, effective Republican Guard leaders. What's happening here is you see the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, we're finding out the Ayatollahs had billions of dollars of assets. They've got hotels and villas. They have buildings. Isn't it strange how this world works? In London, they own a lot of property, billions of dollars through the Khomeini regime was funding all over the world property investments as well as in Dubai. And what's interesting about this is the Republican Guard leadership high echelon were all on the payroll. They were all really well compensated. So you got it's almost like a cartel with a religious obsession of the, you know, the Shia Islamic clerical radical faith Hating Jews and hating the United States is pretty much a centerpiece to their jihadic religious obsession. Trump is taking the thing down. Something interesting happened when the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Ali Lara Johnny was taken out. The Israeli Defense IDF accused Lajani of overseeing the regime's violent crackdown in charge of all the anti government protests, the 30,000 or so that were killed. This was largely his management last week. Laranjani how you talk about an interesting moment. He threatened Donald Trump. He just got taken out, but he threatened Donald Trump after the president warned Iran that he would strike the country harder if it blocked oil shipments in the Strait of Hormuz. And so the Ashura loving nation of Iran does not fear your paper threats. Laranjani posted on social media. Even those greater than you could not eliminate the Iranian nation. Watch out for yourself lest you be eliminated. Well, you know, you threaten Trump's life like that and he basically said, okay, he's gone and he's gone. Now let's play the. I liked, I liked what Jesse Walters said regarding the strike on where 90% of the oil is processed and going through Iran. Trump just took the island. He just eliminated all the military bases and operations on the island, which is the Kharg island that handles 90% of Iran's exports. I think Jesse does a great job explaining it. Let's play it.

The president said, watch what happens to these deranged scumbags today. And he wasn't kidding. Moments ago, Central Command executed one of the most powerful raids in the history of the Middle east, totally obliterating every military target in Iran's crown jewel, Kharg Island. For reasons of decency, the president says he's chosen not to wipe out the oil infrastructure on the island, but says if Iran interferes with oil flows on the Strait of Hormuz, he'll immediately reconsider his decision.

A lot of big hits today. A lot of big wins today, as you probably heard, militarily, and I think it's going very well and very good control. We'll see what's happening with the Straits. They continue to try and sabotage their own country in the Middle east, but been very, very strong militarily.

Carg Island's Iran's main oil export terminal. 90% of its oil sales flow out of that island. It's basically the country's biggest cash register and Trump just hit everything next to it. We told you yesterday, effing with the straight made Trump more dug in. And we know when Trump draws the red Line. He means it. This type of tactical precision strike at the heart of the Iranian economy sends a message, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. Ball's in the mullahs court.
- [38:23]
Podcast Host
And what's interesting in the background of this is Trump is now inviting all nations to work together in this vast body of water to be able to make sure that there's a safe passage of energy and commerce that's flowing through the strait. And who is slow on answering that and who refused to do it where? Certain NATO nations. The UK for one of them, which has way too much Islamic influence controlling it. Spain. No, we're not going to participate at all. And Trump's making a note of this. And what he's trying to say is, I want everyone to play nice. We can all make money. We can have a peaceful world. We have to have an economy that works. Now, China needs like 40% of its energy is coming through the Strait of Hormuz. They're affected by the shutdown. So Trump says, bring your ships over here. Why don't you join us? Why don't we just. Let's work together? Because that island, that Carg island, is critical infrastructure for the economy in Iran, which feeds the regime. And there's the problem. If Trump pulls out now, as all these angry little MAGA factions say, we don't want to be involved in the war over there. If Trump pulls out and the regime keeps getting the billions of dollars of currency that doesn't work. Trump wants to stop the flow of oil, funding Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis and the. And the instability of the Middle East. He also wants China to know that he is hovering over that island right now. And if he hits that island, it's going to affect China because that's where they're relying on oil processes. So he says, why don't you come over and help us? Well, China hasn't necessarily responded like some other countries that don't want to. Now that the tariff decision was made by our Supreme Court, that incentive has been dropped. And so some countries are beginning their pushback on the United States. And so Trump basically says, well, you wanted me to come over to your country for. I don't think I'm going to do that meeting. I'm going to put that meeting on hold. What's he saying? If you don't honor me and what I'm doing to protect safe passage of oil for you, I want you to be a healthy economic partner. I don't want you going down. I need you on Your feet, you. But I need the United States to be respected for its role in the global economy. So he said, I don't think I'm going to go to China. I'll cancel that party. And so he's, Everything with him is a strategic component. That's the reason why I'm going to remind you again, during this fluctuation, oil prices going up to $100 a barrel, everybody freaks out, gas prices go up. Trump says it's all going to come down and level out very fast once the emotional anxiety of what's going on with, with the Hormuz has been dealt with, which is why he wants to get these other countries there. But folks, that kind of fickle emotional condition in America that has the stock market go up, stock market go down, you got to know something, you got to guard yourself. That's why I've been telling people all along, I said, just get the report on putting your, your money, your paper assets into gold and silver, because it's a store and a container of value that's been there for thousands of years. China's getting gold, Russia is getting gold, all the banks are getting gold. You know why? They don't know where the yuan and the dollar might be. And depending on the unstability and unpredictability of the Future. Go to lancewallnut.com gold and be smart. Take a look at the report, and take care of yourself. All right, play video 6.

When Trump says the United States has literally destroyed most everything on Carg island, you know, just thinking, I've been on a different island than this around an island in the Gulf. These are flat, flat sand spits, in a sense. So what did Trump hit, you know, given that topography?
- [42:16]
Military Expert 2
So what he hit basically was the airfield right here. And then you have things like salmon placements in areas like this, the surface to air missiles, and also potentially artillery and other areas like this. So these are the kinds of things that they would go after, and these are the target sets that an island like this would have. Because what you're talking about here, Erin, is an island that handles about 90% of Iran's oil exports. So it's basically a transshipment terminal. And what he's doing here is he's taking out the military aspect of this, and that's why the target set looked like this.
- [42:53]
Military Expert 1
All right, so, and as you're pointing out, not every, some of, some of this is just going to be pure oil infrastructure, which they didn't take all of that out. I know that they'll Say a lot of that is vital to the irgc, but also would have civilian use. So what are the biggest, biggest targets left? I'm just looking at some of those. So look like oil storage.
- [43:11]
Military Expert 2
Right? So that's exactly it right here. So what you're looking at here is like this oil tank farm in this area right here. This is an area where he could absolutely hit that. Then the other thing that you have are these jetties right here. So all the ships that come in, all the tankers that come in, they would use these jetties in order to unload the oil and then take it out of the area into the Persian Gulf from Carg island all the way down through the Strait of Hormuz and then out to be exported to various other countries.
- [43:39]
Podcast Host
And what does that mean? Well, it means that Trump is now in this phase of the war. He is intercepting their ability now to handle their own economic infrastructure and feed the regime financially. This is the brilliant endgame Trump with economics. And it's also why 5,000 Marines may be heading into the Strait right now in order to occupy this wouldn't be boots on the ground in terms of deployment in Iran. It would be occupying the island so that it is a base. Now, of course, the, the Iranians in their insanity, they might want to blow up their own economic engine and attack it. But that's, that's the, that's a question as to how desperate the regime is. But it looks to us as though you might be seeing that Trump might be occupying that island, which essentially puts the US in charge of that oil resource. We'll be right back.

I want you to watch how Wolf Blitzer covers this story on video.

Podcast Host
joining us right now.
- [47:41]
Wolf Blitzer
Zachary, what more can you tell us about this dramatic development?
- [47:44]
Zachary Cohn
Yeah, well this appears to be a significant resignation at the time same senior most levels of the Trump intelligence community. This is Joe Kent. He was the director of the National Counterterrorism Center. He posting appearing to post on X a resignation letter that he submitted citing misgivings over the Trump administration's decision to launch its war with Iran. Now Kent in this letter writes in part quote, as a veteran who deployed to combat 11 times and as a gold star husband who lost my beloved wife Shannon in a war manufactured by Israel, I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of American lives. Now Kent, in his apparent post on X does also seem to suggest that There was no imminent threat that has been used and cited by the Trump administration as justification for launching this war against Iran. He says that essentially the administration manufactured this idea of an imminent threat, and that is part of the reason why he is deciding to resign from his post today.
- [48:51]
Podcast Host
I want to hear. I got my own thoughts on this, but I want you guys to hear what Speaker Johnson has to say about the claim there is no imminent threat. Why do we even have to do this thing?
- [49:02]
Speaker Johnson
That proposition at the end is clearly wrong. I'm on the Gang of Eight. I got all the briefings. We all understood there was clearly an imminent threat, that Iran was very close to the enrichment of nuclear capability and they were building missiles at a pace that no one in the region could keep up with. They were far outpacing our allies and friends and us in our defense capability because we had personnel, installations, members of the armed services and civilians in the region. Iran was building up ballistic missiles at such a rapid pace, and we knew that their plan was to fire them upon Americans. The Commander in chief and his administration had a very difficult decision to make. I don't know where Joe Kent is getting his information, but he wasn't in those briefings, clearly, because the Secretary of State, the Secretary of War and everyone, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Kaine, they had exquisite intelligence that we understood that this was a serious moment for us. Had the President waited, I am personally convinced that we would have mass casualties of Americans, service members and others, and our installations would have been dramatically damaged. And so we had to. The President felt that he had to strike first to prevent those mass casualties.

Podcast Host
Look, Operation Rising lion. Remember that 12 day or whatever initial round we had where we had the exploit of the bombs going out and supposedly taking out or, you know, messing up their underground nuclear capacity. What is interesting is that when Iran was negotiating with the United States leading up to this last conflict, this most recent one, they boasted that they had, and this was always a concern of ours, that they had access to barrels, 8, 400 kg of enriched plutonium that only needed, that was, you only need like 20% enriched in order to pass the threshold of being used for domestic uses, like, you know, reactors for, for energy. And when you go beyond that, you're trying to create a bomb, you're trying to create a weapon. And they had already gotten to 60% and they were using this as a cautionary warning that, hey, we're already down the road. Let's, let's tap the brakes before you push us too far. And that was all that Trump had to hear because he doesn't want them having the nuclear option. And so that was part of where. I don't understand why Joe Kent couldn't have access to that. I'm sure he did. I'm sure that there's a lot of Republicans that, you know, they're not maga, they're in Washington. I can't tell you how many can't wait for Trump to leave because I've talked to them. They just can't stand him because he is him. And he has a way of rattling the system because he's not there for them. He's there for the future of America. And I think that Trump acted prophetically. I believe that what he did was he intercepted the timeline that Satan has for being able to create a premature Third World War conflict. This regime understand the theology and the eschatology of the Shia cleric world. These are spirits that deceive you when you get into these, these, these counterfeiter false religions. The premise is that there is a 12th Imam, an emerging world ruler, someone who is going to come out of the bowels of the Shia faith of Islam, who is going to rise during a period of global cataclysmic conflict, who will become the ultimate peacemaker and basically establish the supremacy of Allah over the globe. What that talks about, oddly enough, is the Antichrist that the Bible talks about, which is a ruler that comes when they say peace. Peace. There is no peace. Probably what you're looking at is some nuclear thing, like in the future could be Iran again. And it's going to be. There'll be mass casualty events and the world will be embroidered in a meltdown. We're looking at a biblical scenario here. I know some of you are rolling your eyes. Hey, this is what the Bible's remarkably accurate in predicting things. And it talks about a global reset economically, where there's 10 global geopolitical leaders that are working with one unified system in order to manage. And everybody has to be systematically receiving the same ID so that they control and vet who is part of the system and who isn't. And that's where the mark of the beast comes from in the Book of Revelation. Remarkably accurate. Trump said it accurately. He said, if I didn't do this now and literally take down the power of that nuclear ambition with this regime, it would come back later, in a couple of years perhaps, and a weaker president will end up in a position where a ballistic missile can come right out of a submarine and land in the United States. Can you imagine a You know, President Buttigieg or Harris or Newsom having to make those decisions. But they're not going. They're going to go peace, peace. They're going to compromise like the European intellectuals do with Islam and with the one world global system. Trump is the saving intervention of a providential leader brought up at a certain point in time who is actually acting to secure the hemisphere for peace. From Greenland all the way down to Venezuela, including Cuba, he's marking this hemisphere for America's protection and for its economic development. He is putting up a wall between the influence of European wokeism and One World Davos governance and the rising power of Communist China. He sees those threats with the shrewdness of a leader who understands the real world that's out there, who isn't constrained by political alliances and hush money or funding that requires him to have to turn a blind eye to something. So he took initiative. And you know this in your, in your gut, he took the initiative to be able to go in. Because if this clerical regime can instigate a global war, their theology says they end up winning because the 12th Imam, their Mahdi, their Messiah, will suddenly emerge on the world scene. And the Bible describes that man exactly as the Antichrist. So I don't know, but I'm glad that Joe Kent isn't there, because the last thing you need is have someone at that high level of infrastructure in the, you know, surveilling terrorism, and they don't even agree with their own president in terms of the understanding of what the threats are. So let me put that aside. What's happening now? Oh, we only got 1 minute, 52 seconds left. I want to. I want to set something up here. Right now, the SAVE Act, Save America act is being debated the Senate. Trump has forced Thune to make this thing where the Democrats are going to have to get up and talk and give sound bites as to why it is that they are against the passing of voter id. Do you guys have the. The tweet that was done by Senator Mike Lee. Let me read that real quick. Senator Mike Lee. I don't think you guys printed it out for me, but he's got. Is it a video? Play the video. Let me hear what he has to say.
- [56:52]
Wolf Blitzer
It's been about two years since Chip Roy and I wrote the SAVE act, which later became the Save America Act. Tomorrow this is going to come to fruition as the Save America act comes to the final floor of the United States Senate. I invite all within the sound of my voice who would like this bill to become law to reach out to as many people as possible, friends, neighbors, especially United States senators who might listen to you. Ask them, please get this passed. Tell them we need to invoke the talking filibuster in the United States Senate. No zombie filibuster will suffice on this one. We've got to turn to this bill. We've got to debate it, and we've got to stay on the bill until it becomes law. There can be no surrender. There can be no ifs, ands, or buts. There can be no cheap imitations here. The Republic is on the line. Let's get this done.
- [57:46]
Podcast Host
Jeff Challenge says this in his great little coffee and Covid blog, which I always love to read. He says that Thune is talking about a hybrid talking filibuster, meaning Democrats who want to block the bill will have to physically stand on the Senate floor live on c spring span in front of everybody and cogently make their case for why proving you're an American citizen before voting in American elections is just too risky and too dangerous. And so Trump has it set up so that all the Democrats will put themselves out there and explain why the why you don't want identification of people when they vote. And I think it's going to be it's going to work against them, as you can see. Is this our last segment? Matt, I have to end. I can't believe it. Well, I'm not done. I've got more to say. Come back tomorrow because I want to tell you about what Trump is giving to JD Vance to help him in his presidential aspirations. Marco Rubio sucking up all the oxygen in the room. So Trump's going to give a win to JD And a big assignment and I'm going to announce it on the next broadcast. You don't want to miss it.
