The Iranians originally put forward a 10 point plan that was fundamentally unserious and unacceptable and completely discarded. It was literally thrown in the garbage by President Trump and his negotiating team. Many outlets in this room have falsely reported on that plan as being acceptable to the United States, and that is false. With the President's deadline fast approaching and the United States military completely decimating Iran with each passing hour, the regime acknowledged reality to the negotiating team. They put forward a more reasonable and entirely different and condensed plan to the President and his team. President Trump and the team determined the new modified plan was a workable basis on which to negotiate and to align it with our own 15 point proposal. The President's red lines, namely the end of Iranian enrichment in Iran, have not changed. And the idea that President Trump would ever accept an Iranian wish list as a deal is completely, completely absurd.

A (27:50)

Now, again, this is the op that Iran is running. They're trying to say that there was an agreement and the Israelis violated the agreement. And Trump's team is saying that was never part of the agreement. You're just lying now. Which, by the way, is the Iranian way in negotiation. Under the revolutionary regime, this is what they do, they lie in negotiations. It's why the JCPOA was an idiotic idea. There is no agreement they make that is worth the paper upon which it is printed. The President put out his own statement on truth social saying this. Numerous agreements, Listen, letters are being sent out by people that have absolutely nothing to do with the USA Iran negotiation. In many cases they are total fraudster charlatans. And worse, they'll be rapidly exposed after our federal investigation is completed. There's only one group of meaningful points that are acceptable to the United States and we will be discussing them behind closed doors during these negotiations. These are the points that are the basis on which we agreed to a ceasefire. It is something that is reasonable and can be easily dispensed with. It's very much like fake news. CNN last night headlining a source that had no power or authority to write a letter claiming great authority, President Trump. Okay, so he is saying that the Iranians are putting out a ten point plan that is not the ten point plan that was the basis for negotiations. Now, J.D. vance, who again, we will find out about his negotiating acumen. I suppose throughout this process he's been put in the loop with regards to this negotiation. He was apparently on the cutting edge of negotiating this ceasefire. And he says that the people on the fringes of the Iranian system are trying to create propaganda here about this supposed 10 point plan that would basically have the United States surrendering. What's happening on the ground in Iran is that you have clearly the position of the government, which is to negotiate with the United States of America. You have the position of the President of the United States, which is to send the negotiators to Pakistan and engage in this good faith negotiation. And then, yes, you have some crazy people at the fringes of the Iranian system who are leaking anonymously, either for propaganda purposes or because they're embarrassed or because they don't like what happened. Okay, so again, he is saying the same thing that Trump is saying, same thing that Caroline Levitt is saying, same thing the Israelis are saying, which is that this never included Lebanon. It didn't suggest that they get to keep their nukes or their ballistic missiles or anything like that. Vance continued, again, this is on Wednesday, saying the United States has the leverage here, which of course is true. It turns out you have the leverage when you have the world's most powerful military. The President of the United States has made very clear that the United States has a lot of leverage here. We have economic leverage, we have got military leverage. What he's trying to do is make sure the American people are safe and strike a deal that's good for the American People and Van said that the ceasefire never included Lebanon. I think this comes from a legitimate misunderstanding. I think the Iranians thought that the ceasefire included Lebanon, and it just didn't. We never made that promise. We never indicated that was going to be the case. What we said is that. That the ceasefire would be focused on Iran and the ceasefire would be focused on America's allies, both Israel and the Gulf Arab states. Okay, so first of all, I should point out there's no such thing as a legitimate misunderstanding here. The Iranians want every ceasefire to include regional domination, and the United States does not. It'll be interesting to see whether that gap is bridged in any way. Right. This is not a legitimate misunderstanding. That is the entire gap in negotiations. Does Iran. Are they willing to give up control of the Strait of Hormuz and are they willing to get rid of their nuclear program? That's the whole thing. If the answer is no, then this thing is not over yet. And if the answer is yes, it's over for now. But it may also be over for the Iranian regime, and they know it. By the way, we should note the Iranians had said that while Israel is still going after Lebanon, there would be no negotiations. As of this morning, the negotiations are still happening. So it turns out that they, in fact, do not have all the leverage. We'll get to Caroline Levitt, spelling out what's going on in just one moment. First, Mother's Day is right around the corner. Give mom something special this season by digitizing the memories she holds dear. Pack your old VHS tapes, film reels, photos into a legacy box. You send it in. Their US Team professionally digitizes everything, and then they will return your originals with secure cloud access so your memories are preserved and easy to share. I've done this for my parents.

Meanwhile, at the White House, Caroline Levitt says that our red lines have not moved. No uranium enrichment. That is the red line. Has Iran given the administration any indication that it would simply turn over the enriched uranium, or is this an expectation the president has that he would have to send in ground troops in order to do that?

B (32:38)

Ms. This is on the top of the priority list for the president and his negotiating team as they head into this next round of discussions. And as I said in my opener, that is a red line that the president is not going to back away from, and he's committed to ensuring that takes place. We hope it will be through diplomacy.

A (32:54)

Have they, have they given any indication that they would turn it over?

B (32:57)

They have.

A (32:57)

They are on.

B (32:58)

Yes.

A (33:00)

Okay. President Trump put out a statement on Wednesday night, again, reiterating this. I don't know how many times he has to say, quote, all U.S. ships, aircraft and military personnel with additional ammunition, weaponry, and anything else that is appropriate and necessary for the lethal prosecution and destruction of an already substantially degraded enemy will remain in place and around Iran until such time as the real agreement reached is fully complied with. If for any reason it is not, which is highly unlikely, then the shootin starts bigger and better and stronger than anyone has ever seen before. It was agreed a long time ago, and despite all of the fake rhetoric to the contrary, no nuclear weapons and the Strait of Hormuz will be open and safe again, same conditions over and over and over. This notion that Trump has just abandoned his conditions here. Based on what? Based on what? Again, the purpose here is to negotiate some sort of end state. Maybe Iran is It's possible they're lying publicly, it's possible that they're lying to Trump. It is possible that nothing gets done, or it's possible that eventually they give up the ghost here because they don't have a lot of choices. Hey. Iran, for its part, keeps insisting that Lebanon is part of the ceasefire. Clearly it is not, since they are still negotiating. Muhammad Khaliba, who apparently is on the do not kill list for the United States and Israel, because I guess this is the guy they're negotiating with. He said Lebanon and the entire resistance access as Iran's allies, form an inseparable part of the ceasefire. So apparently Khaliba is claiming that in exchange for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, Iran should have complete regional domination via its axis of terror. That is a non starter. It is a non starter. Okay. The Ayatollah Moshtave Khamenei, who is tweeting from the grave, I mean, he's literally not conscious, but his Twitter account is very alive, much more alive than he is, put out the following statements we will definitely take the management of the straight of Hormuz to a new phase. And he needs to take his IV to a new phase. It sounds like all must know that by almighty God's will, we will definitely won't allow the criminal aggressors who attacked our country to go on punch. They just keep threatening and threatening and threatening and you know, that's it. It's a bold move. God, and we'll see how it works out for them. Meanwhile, the Pakistani Defense Minister, a person who was the negotiation mediator here, Khawaja Asif. Okay, this is why Pakistan is not a good faith negotiator. They are a Chinese cutout. Just understand what they are. They're a weak horse Chinese cutout with nuclear weapons. That that is what they are. He put out a statement. Israel is evil and a curse for humanity. While peace talks are underway and Islamabad genocide is being committed in Lebanon. It's amazing how literally everything's a genocide now. Everything is a genocide. Targeted strikes on specific buildings in Lebanon is a genocide now killing 32,000 people in the streets because they oppose the regime. Not a genocide. A full scale invasion of your neighbor and wiping civilians off the planet deliberately not as collateral damage on October 7th. Not an attempted genocide. Genocide is. Anytime anything bad happens to a radical Muslim somewhere, that's it, That's a genocide. Innocent citizens are being killed by Israel. First Gaza, then Iran, now Lebanon. Bloodletting continues unabated. This is supposed to be the honest broker here in the Middle East. Okay, later, this person deleted this statement. I hope and pray people who created this cancerous state on Palestinian land to get rid of European Jews burn in hell. Sounds like a great negotiator, this dude. Again, I will say I am skeptical that these negotiations end with Iran giving up the ghost. But maybe. Listen, it could all be posturing. It really could. It could be them posturing publicly in order to make some sort of excuse for the fact that they got their asses absolutely handed to them. And by them I mean Iran and its proxies and its stand ins. Meanwhile, in Lebanon, the Prime Minister of Israel announced negotiations. He said in light of Lebanon's repeated request to open direct negotiations with Israel, I instructed at the government meeting yesterday to open direct negotiations with Lebanon as soon as possible. The negotiation will focus on the disarmament of Hezbollah and the establishment of peaceful relations between Israel and Lebanon. Remember, there's a thing called the Lebanese government. The Lebanese government is not in fact Hezbollah and the Lebanese government does not want Iran running it. In fact, According to Almanator, which again, is an Arabian outlet, Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said on Thursday that his government alone is responsible for negotiating an end to Israeli hostilities. Negotiations must be conducted solely by the Lebanese state, so it's not up to Hezbollah, okay? Meanwhile, the President on Thursday night made clear that there will be no tolling in the Strait, no fees. There are reports that Iran is charging fees to tankers through the Hormuz Strait. They better not be. And if they are, they better stop now. Same night, quote, he tweets out, we're the Wall Street Journal, one of the worst and most inaccurate editorial boards in the world, stated, I declared a premature victory in Iran. Actually, it is a victory and there's nothing premature about it. Because of me, Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. And very quickly, you'll see oil start flowing with or without the help of Iran. And to me, it makes no difference either way. The Wall Street Journal will, as usual, live to eat their words. Says, we're going to disarm Iran and you'll see the oil flowing, essentially. And then he says, listen, our agreement is not shutting the strait. The strait has remained closed, by the way. So the ceasefire was supposed to reopen the strait. Strait is still closed. Strait of Hormuz is allowing five, six ships a day through. President Trump said Iran is doing a very poor job, dishonorable, some would say, of allowing oil to go through the Strait of Hormuz. That is not the agreement we have. Does this sound like a person who is about to just walk away if he does not get what he wants? Is that what it sounds like to you? Because if so, let me recommend that you get your head checked. Meanwhile, the Europeans being what the Europeans are absolute ridiculous pansies. It is. It is hard to overstate the extent to which the Europeans are pathetic. Truly, truly, truly pathetic. Not all in equal measure. Some countries more than others. The UK and France being at the top of the list. So the uk, France, Italy, Germany, Canada, Denmark, the Netherlands, Spain, the ec, the European Council and Japan put out a statement on Wednesday, April 8. We welcome the two week ceasefire concluded between the United States and Iran today. And we thank Pakistan. And they say we strongly encourage quick progress toward a substantive negotiated settlement. We call upon all sides to implement the ceasefire, including in Lebanon. So basically, they just want Iran to get its way. I have a question. Of what use are they truly? Of what use are they? The United States may still have an interest in deterring Russia from taking over parts of Europe because we don't like The Russians having more power because the Russians are worse than the Europeans. But the Europeans are truly pathetic. Truly pathetic. They import Russian oil while they're in the middle of a war with Russia. They refuse to stand up for the trade routes that affect them the most. They caterwaul when the United States or Israel goes after their enemies. Truly sad people. The president put out a statement. NATO wasn't there when we needed them. They won't be there if we need them again. Remember Greenland, that big, poorly run piece of ice? He ain't wrong. The disappointment with NATO is quite real. There's been talk, by the way, about punishing NATO countries by moving our bases away from NATO member countries deemed unhelpful to our current war efforts. This is according to the Wall Street Journal, and instead stationing them in countries that are more supportive. Makes sense to me. The idea that the United States has to keep footing the bill for the French is insane. Let them decay into whatever it is they're going to become. You can see Mark, Rudy, the head of NATO, is pretty disappointed with all of the NATO nations and he says Trump is right to be disappointed. You just came from a meeting at the White House with President Trump. He's not been hiding his frustrations with NATO countries. How was the meeting? Did he say he's withdrawing? Well, let me be absolutely clear. He is clearly disappointed and with many NATO allies, and I can see his point. But at the same time, I was also able to point to the fact that the large majority of European nations has been helpful with basing with logistics, with overflights, with making sure that they lived up to the commitments. And there is also widespread support for the fact that degrading the nuclear and the inter. The ballistic missile capacity from Iran was really crucial and that only the US Was able at this point to do that. Okay, so he is right that some nations have been better than others. Apparently, Poland and the Baltic states particularly are ticked off. I wonder why. I wonder why. I mean, if you look at a map of NATO, which nations have been friendly to the United States using their military bases, our military bases on their land? Which ones? It turns out, all the ones that border Russia, Poland, all the Baltic states. Which ones have been unfriendly? France, Spain, Italy, initially, the uk the ones that are further away from Russia. Those pathetic dullards. Truly, truly pathetic people. Probably the make America great again could also become. Don't be France. Don't be France is a good slogan also, because don't be France, don't be the UK Declining fairly quickly. Into uselessness. And the President is right about this. The President put out a truth social and he said, listen, I'm gonna pressure them. I'm continue to pressure them. He said, none of these people, including our own, very disappointing NATO, understood anything unless they have pressure placed upon them. I wish you were wrong. He is not wrong. The President is not wrong about any of this. Now the left immediately seized upon this ceasefire to try to dunk on the President again, the true hatred for a strong America that is implicit in this sort of talk is it's an amazing thing. Jimmy Kimmel hates the President. We get it, okay? We get it. But the way that he speaks of the United States government in contrast with a fundamentalist fascist theocracy that shoots dissidents in the streets by the tens of thousands, should boggle the mind a little bit. Here is Jimmy Kimmel over the course of the last couple of days. How is this negotiation even gonna work? This is a government of religious fanatics who don't believe in democracy. And they used domestic security forces to terrorize their own citizens. And now we expect Iran to negotiate with them. Nevermind, really, the only way this conflict ends is if Iran gives Trump some kind of award, like the Hormuz Peace Prize. You know, you put it next to the one he got from Hormel, Chile. Okay, now that. What's amazing about that first line is the crowd doesn't even laugh. He says, how is Iran supposed to negotiate with religious fanatics? Even the crowd is like, what the hell is wrong with you? Because it turns out that glazing one of the worst regimes on planet earth just because he hate Trump is a bad move. Meanwhile, Stephanie Rule over on msnbc, Mississippi, now, as it's called, now commended Iran for having a deep belief in something. We're now at this point, you know, there's a famous tweet online at no point, you actually have to hand it to Hitler, right? This is where they are. Like, we have to hand it to the Iranians. And you know, they're completely evil regime. They have something they're willing to die for. Yeah, the thing they're willing to die for is complete evil. The thing they're willing to die for is an Islamist theocracy with global ambitions. And you're praising them. Hell's wrong with you people?

B (43:57)

You could disagree with Iran and what

A (44:00)

their point of view is, but it's

B (44:02)

the fact that they have a deep belief in something that's unfortunate.

A (44:05)

That they will die for that they will die for that they'll destroy Their country for it. Yes. I mean, he has no ideological belief or patriotism about America, and he doesn't think anybody else does. So when he sees Iranians lining up around power grids, he can't understand that. He thinks they're being paid to do it. What the. They're literally on MSNL praising people standing outside of nuclear power plants who are probably being forced to do so at point of gun or who work for the regime.

B (44:35)

This is.

A (44:35)

This is what they've been reduced to at this point. Meanwhile, Michigan Democrats may be about to nominate a Senate candidate named El Sayed who is full scale in sympathy with radical Islamists because his fans in Dearborn are. He actually stood alongside Hassan Piker, who, again, the fact that Hasan Piker is considered a well respected member of the left is truly crazy, Truly, truly insane. This person has never found and is an Islamist dictator or terrorist group that he can't find some sympathy for. The guy traveled to China to talk about how wonderful China is, in Cuba to talk about how wonderful Cuba is. And there he is campaigning with Abdul El Sayed. This Michigan Senate candidate. And this Michigan Senate candidate was asked about the Temple Israel attack, which of course sprang from Dearborn, the terrorist attack from a Hezbollah activist, a Hezbollah aligned person. And he said, hurt people. Hurt people. The. What is wrong with you people? This is. I'm sorry, that's America hatred. It's west hatred. Hurt people. Hurt. The guy who went and tried to attack literal Jewish toddlers at a temple. That guy was a Hezbollah terrorist whose brothers had been killed in Lebanon because they were members of Hezbollah. And you have a man running for high office in Michigan who says that that person was just a hurt person who hurt people. What the what? Here we go. You know, when it comes to Temple Israel, I was profoundly shaken. Many of my friends growing up worshiped the Temple Israel. Nothing justifies the heinous attack that we saw on Temple Israel. And I stand in solidarity with my Jewish sisters and brothers for an America where that kind of thing never happens again. I also think it's just critical for us to understand that hurt people do hurt people and the circumstances happening 6,000 miles away can affect the lives that we live here. And if we stand against violence, we got to stand against violence, all violence. You can't stand next to Hassan Piker and say that kind of stuff. You just can't. Hakeem Jeffries, the House Minority Leader, he says that Donald Trump has failed America and Naito. We've somehow failed NATO. So NATO has been useless. We failed Them, he says we failed the free world. That Trump has failed the free world. The free. Which part. Which part of the free world has been failed by an attack on Iran to destroy their capacities? Here's Hakeem Jeffries again. Trump is standing for a stronger America. Hakeem Jeffries is standing for a weaker America, period. Donald Trump has failed America, failed the NATO alliance and failed the free world. And he seems to confuse friend with foe. And the fact that Vice President Vance is over in Eastern Europe right now supporting an authoritarian dictator is extraordinary. The fact that Donald Trump and Republicans continue to play footsie with Vladimir Putin and Russia, sworn enemies of the United States of America, is extraordinary. And the fact that Donald Trump continues to attack our allies, whether it's Canada, Mexico or NATO, is extraordinary. Something is really wrong with this guy. I mean, there's something wrong with that guy. I'm sorry. Okay. Meanwhile, the grievance, right, which of course agrees with the left, that again, they believe America toast, not America first, America toast. America is done. It's cooked. They're totally black pilled on the United States. The United States must recede within her own boundaries and turn into a fat, bloated country addicted to welfare. That's the only way forward. That's the only way forward for the United States, according to these people, which is why they openly. Again, it's not me saying that. Attributing to them views. They don't speak for themselves. They openly say the world will be a better place with China and Russia in charge of large swathes of it. Just going to remember because we're going to get to President Trump's big tweet last night in which he went after in order, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Megyn Kelly and Alex Jones. The reason he is going after these people is because these people have revealed themselves for who they are. People who do not actually want to make America great again. They believe America is weak and ought to remain weak. Remember, it was just a few days ago that Tucker Carlson, in all of his newfound insanity, was calling President Trump a war criminal. Yesterday at the White House, they all show up middle of Christian Holy Week, four days before Easter. And not just the fringe Christian Zionist, John Hagee or these strange people. But, but the, but the big guys, Franklin Graham, son of Billy Graham, shows up at the White House yesterday to pray over the president. So he will have wisdom and restraint. No, to endorse the murder of civilians, which is a war crime. But more important, it's a moral crime. You can't kill people who have committed no crime, who did nothing wrong. You can't murder the innocent. You can't kill kids and women. And yet Franklin Graham is up there standing at the podium praying for that. Now, how do you do that? Well, by quoting something called the Book of Esther. Tucker Carlson is. This is who Tucker Carlson is. It's Tucker again. I think the best case scenario is that he's lost his mind and that he's been taking too much out. 30 ALP pouches a day will apparently do that to you. Out Made in India. But whether it is mental illness or mental break or whether it is a just deeply horrific view of America and the world doesn't really matter. Bottom line is that Tucker is a demoralization agent. He believes that America is trashed. He says it over and over and over. He does not actually believe America can ever be great again. He believes that America should basically just turn into a European socialist style welfare state that is isolationist in intent. That is what he wants. And he is willing to traffic in any sort of conspiracy theory of any ilk in order to get there. Meanwhile, Marjorie Taylor Greene again, the strange new respect being afforded to these people is truly incredible. Marjorie Taylor Greene is an idiot. She's been an idiot for years. Everyone knows that Marjorie Taylor Greene is an idiot from the time she was tweeting about the Jewish space lasers through her inability to distinguish the Gestapo from gazpacho. Marjorie Taylor Greene is one of the dumbest people in American politics and she has been again for years. The great tragedy is that President Trump didn't defenestrate her earlier and that he was hanging around with her. Marjorie Taylor Greene, unsurprisingly, since she has left Congress because she was not going to win her seat again, she now says that Christians must speak out against Trump because Trump is busy, you know, taking out an Islamist dictatorship.

B (51:36)

And I really have to call out the Speaker, Mike Johnson, who calls himself a Christian. I don't know how he can stand by those words. That's what was so offensive to me. Any, any Christian serving in Congress or serving in the Senate and serving in the administration really needs to take pause and ask themselves, as a Christian, do you really support the President calling for the annihilation, calling to wipe out an entire civilization of people. And I don't think you should, because that's not what Jesus said and that's not what Christianity is all about. And so I think that, yeah, I'm probably one of the few. It was me, Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones and a few others that are willing to call it out and speak out against us because we're willing to be honest.

A (52:25)

CNN is so excited for Marjorie Taylor Greene being there. And you know, again, I will let Christians speak to her take on Christianity. I will say that from all the Christians that I know, and I know an awful lot of Christians, that is a deeply flawed take. I also do have questions about Marjorie Taylor Greene as Christian icon. Daily Mail, February 11, 2021 Controversial conspiracy Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene cheated on her husband with a polyamorous tantric sex guru, DailyMail.com has learned. Then after ending her affair with him, the mom of three moved on to a gym manager behind her husband's back. Well, she didn't just say that. She also said that the Republican Party should be ended again. If you think that these people are standing up for the greatness of America by saying the Republican Party ought to be, they want to hand it to the Democrats. Does that sound like America first to you?

B (53:13)

We have to be realistic about the Republican Party. The Republican Party needs burned to the ground. It's completely controlled. As a matter of fact, much of Congress is controlled by AIPAC and by Zionists. And that is a serious problem. That means you, the American people don't control your own government. And those you elect, they're controlled by donors that have one specific interest and that is Israel.

A (53:39)

Again, she is a ridiculous human being. AIPAC is not even like a top 50 donor. This notion that AIPAC is running the American government is total trash. But again, she's speaking it to Alex Jones, one of the great conspiracy theorists of our time. One of the problems with the Republican Party over the last 10 years or so and probably earlier, is that it let in a bunch of grifters who don't know anything and then brought them in to spew conspiracy theories because they were part of the quote, unquote, anti left coalition. And then it turns it, it turns out that when you allow the big tent to be really, really, really big, you end up with a lot of clowns in there and Alex Jones sitting along for all of this. Alex Jones, like Alex Jones is the guy who had to pay out a bajillion dollar settlement because he was lying about dead kids at Sandy Hook. That guy was welcomed as that guy was treated as. Tucker Carlson literally called that guy a prophet. He literally called him a prophet. Alex Jones, who's who by the way, says he no longer supports Trump. He put out that tweet yesterday saying that he no longer supports President Trump. I made it very clear. I no longer support Trump and I'm very thankful to him for making it clear that I have nothing to do with him. The new Trump is a rotting husk of the old Trump. Speaking of a rotting husk, do you take a look in the mirror, my dude. Testosterone replacement therapy can only do so much. Meanwhile, Megyn Kelly, who is always programming into the clicks, always and forever will never stop. Never stop. Never stopping. Megyn Kelly always programming to the clicks still. I'm just going to say it again. We are now let's see. What is it? April. It's April 10th today. So I'm just going to point out that it's April 10th. Charlie Kirk was shot September 10th of last year. Okay. It is now April 10th. So how many months is that? That is what, let's see. September to October, October, November, November to December, December to January, January to February, February to March, March to April. We are seven months after Charlie Kirk was assassinated and this delightful human being still will not say that Candace Owens and her conspiracy laden crap about Erica Kirk is morally wrong. She still won't do it. That's all I ever said Megan should do. Ever. She still won't do it. And we are seven months in. But don't worry, you need her moral imprimatur to go to war against the Ayatollahs. You need it. And you know what? She's passionate about things. Megan. You, you know how she's. You can tell she's passionate because she curses a lot more than she used to. That's how you know she really believes the things she's saying because she drops four letter words a lot and also makes insulting comments about genitalia of her political opponents. I'm old enough to remember when she was asking President Trump about doing that in 2015. That's how old I am. But don't worry, Meghan Kelly, she's even older than I am. Here we go.

B (56:25)

I mean, I don't know about you, but I am sick of this.

A (56:29)

I'm just, I'm.

B (56:30)

I'm sick of it. Can he just behave like a normal human? I mean, honestly, like the President. I3D yes, just shut up. Shut up about that. You don't threaten to wipe out civilization. We're talking about civilians just casually in

A (56:52)

a social media post. This is wrong. It's wrong. He should not be doing it.

B (56:58)

I don't care that it's a negotiation.

A (57:00)

She's so negotiation tactic. She's like the worst third rate band, you know. Seriously, that's what she becomes.

B (57:05)

Men, women and children Stop it. I mean, she's.

A (57:07)

Okay, Megan, we get it. You're doing your best Tim Dillon impression. You're. You've not been relegated to doing a Tim Dillon impersonation. Cuz you're cursing. You're so sick. You literally played that clip like five minutes ago and now you're just imitating it and then you're imitating. It's just wrong killings feelings. Again, none of these people. Tucker doesn't think it, Candace doesn't think it, Megan doesn't think it. None of these people think that Trump was going to nuke Iran. The sudden pearl clutching from all the people who know for a fact that Trump is not going to nuke Iran and wipe out the entire civilian population is truly an astonishing thing. Truly. But you know, she's passionate because she's cursing now. So that's the important thing. Meanwhile, Nick Fuentes is just saying the quiet part out loud, which I appreciate about Fuentes. At least Fuentes is honest in his evil quote, I don't trust anybody who just started criticizing Trump this year, but continues to shill for GOP and J.D. vance. Time to be unreasonable. Burn it all down. I want retribution for this betrayal. Democrats for Congress in 2026 and America first presidential candidate in 2028. And there he's ruling out even J.D. vance. Right, so we'll point that. So President Trump finally had enough of all of this and he put out a statement last night. And listen, folks, if you had listened to my show for a few years, you had been early on this one. He put out a statement, quote, I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact they think it is wonderful for Iran, the number one state sponsor of terror, to have a nuclear weapon because they have one thing in common, low IQs. They're stupid people. They know it, their families know it and everyone else knows it. Look at their past, look at their record. They don't have what it takes and they never did. They've all been thrown off tv, lost their shows and aren't even invited on TV because nobody cares about them. They nut jobs, troublemakers and will say anything necessary for some free and cheap publicity. That last part is definitely true. Now they think they get some clicks because they have third rate podcasts, but nobody's talking about them. Their views are the opposite of maga or I wouldn't have won the presidential election in a landslide. MAGA agrees with me, says the President, and just gave CNN A 100% approval rating of Trump, not hand flailing fools like Tucker Carlson who couldn't even finish college. He was a broken man when he got fired from Fox and he's never been the same president. Perhaps you should see a good psychiatrist. Or Megyn Kelly who nastily asked me the now famous only Rosie o' Donnell question. Or crazy Candace Owens who accuses the highly respected first lady of France of being a man when she is not and will hopefully win lots of money in the ongoing lawsuit. Actually, to me the first lady of France is a far more beautiful woman than Candace. In fact, it's not even close. Or bankrupt Alex Jones, who says some of the dumbest things and lost his entire fortune, as he should have for his horrendous attack on the families of the Sandy Hook shooting victims, ridiculously claiming it was hoax. These so called pundits are losers and they will always be now fake news. Cnn, the failing New York Times and all the other radical left news organizations are hailing them and giving them positive press for the first time in their lives. They're not maga. They're losers just trying to latch on to maga. As President, I could get them on my side anytime I want to. But when they call, I don't return their calls because I'm too busy on world and country affairs. And after a few times they go nasty, just like Marjorie Trader Brown. But I no longer care about that stuff. I only care about doing right for our country. But MAGA is about winning and strength in not allowing Iran to have nuclear weapons. MAGA is about making America great again. And these people have no idea how to do that. But I do. Because the United States is now the hottest country anywhere in the world. President Donald J. Trump So again, is the President wrong about that? I don't see why he would be. I do not see why he would be. Because the reality is, once again the President of the United States is facing down people who fairly openly are rooting for American weakness and are willing to buy into any trash conspiracy theory in order to bolster their own ratings and in order to get the clicks. And by the way, they'll pretty much admit it. They'll just brag about their clicks as a defense mechanism. You point out what they're doing is wrong and immoral and they point out that what you're doing gets lower ratings, which last I checked is not a defense to wrong and immoral and untrue. All right. Meanwhile, the other big news of the day here is that Melania apparently gave a speech denouncing Jeffrey Epstein and talking about Jeffrey Epstein. And people are going crazy over this Melania speech on Jeffrey Epstein. Honestly, I'm not sure what prompted her to do this, but she denied ties to him. She called on Congress, told the hearing for survivors. Here's what she had to say. To be clear, I never had a

relationship with Epstein or his accomplice. Maxwell. Numerous fake images and statements about Epstein and me have been calculating on social media for years now. Be cautious about what you believe. These images and stories are completely false.

A (61:47)

Now again, the way that the stupid Internet works is that her denying a thing makes the thing true. That's how it works, is that if she says that she was not associated with Epstein, it's probably because she was associated with Epstein. That's where we're supposed to be right now. Well, it's incredibly stupid. It's incredibly dumb. But the reality is that the reason that she's doing that, I would assume is because the propaganda has ramped into high gear on Epstein, specifically because there are a lot of bot farms out there that push this kind of stuff on X and on TikTok in the middle of a war with Iran. That is not a coincidence. That I would assume is the reason why she felt the necessity to go out and make that statement. I think it's ill advised, but it doesn't matter what I think. It's already done. And meanwhile, in other dumb cultural news, I just have to comment on this one. This one thing from Nikki Glaser. So Nikki Glaser is a comedian who is occasionally funny. She was on Call Her Daddy with Alex Cooper, which. Oh my gosh, I can't. Speaking of things that should not have ratings in a sane world. In any case, she described how she thinks it's hot when her husband sleeps with other women, which, you know, I. Okay, I mean, seems weird. Seems like you got some problems in your life, but I mean, you could have told that by the fact that she's a comedian. I will say that the comedians are not famous for having stable mental lives.

B (63:08)

Here she was in a relationship. I don't really care if my boyfriend were to hook up. Okay, I read about that. Yeah, we need to talk about that. But that is not a two way street. Like I'm, I'm not someone who likes to hook up when I'm in a relationship. I'm not really like, I don't really care about that. I, you know, but I don't care if someone else were to hold on. In fact, I like, kind of like it it's kind of. It's. It's a problem, I think. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, we need to talk about this.

A (63:36)

Yeah, there are people who listen to this. It says more about America that people listen to this than it does about Nikki Glaser that she says it. She then continued and explained, unfortunately for all of us, if I had to listen to it. So do you.

B (63:51)

You call this the hot husband fetish, which is essentially when you want your partner to have sexual experiences with other people outside of the relationship.

A (63:57)

Yeah.

B (63:58)

So when did this start for you, Nikki? Let's go. Started with my. My boyfriend when I was 29. Because I really hadn't had a boyfriend before then. He would tell me about, like, I would always ask him about, like, past hookups and girlfriends and how they got together. Like, I was like, the beginning. Like, how did you guys first know you liked each other? Like, I love that, like, our legs were touching on our table and neither of us moved our leg or something like, stuff like that. I'd be like. So, like, I don't know, it would make me, like, horny to, like, think about him doing that with other girls. And then I would. So I ask about all of his, like, girlfriends or anyone he had hooked up with, like, all the details about it. And I would really be, like, a foreplay for me. Like, I would get, like, revved up talking about it. And then it reached a point where he was out of stories. Like, he had gone through all of them. And I was like. And it's almost like he was telling the same ones. And I was like, I know this one. So it wasn't as exciting anymore. Cause I was getting the same stuff. So I was like, I know this is. I. Like, I had never heard of anything like this. I felt so weird, but I was like, I think I need you to, like, get some more stories.

A (64:56)

Wow, great. Well, at least millions of people won't watch that and then imitate that in their own lives and ruin them. How could it go wrong? All right, well, in better news, you guys all know Regan Conrad. She's been on the show before. She's a host here at the Daily Wire. She has a brand new series called this is Reagan Conrad. You can find it over right now on YouTube, where she hosts deep dives, interviews, and many documentaries about the issues she cares most about. And her first episode is apparently on something called Kratom, which is. I've heard about this, but it's kind of a shocking thing. Reagan, thanks so much for taking the time. Appreciate it.

B (65:30)

Of course. Yeah. I'm glad to transition out of that garbage.

A (65:35)

So let's talk about something actually more serious, which is your first episode, which is on this. This substance called Kratom. What is that? Why should people care about it?

B (65:45)

Yeah, so Kratom, it's originally a leaf in Southeast Asia, and it came over to the States. And recently, over the past couple years, it's become this phenomenon of sorts because. Because chemists got involved with this derivative that's actually in the leaf called Seven. Oh, it's becoming super popular. Kids are getting addicted to it, adults are getting addicted, people are getting involved, and they didn't even know it's a drug. And now it essentially acts like an opiate. And so it's causing for a lot of concern for people across the country. And it just kind of operated in, like, a gray area for a long time. And so people haven't understood what this thing is. And so we wanted to deep dive and understand, like, what. What is this? Why are people going to rehab for a drug that they didn't even know was a drug? And that's what our first deep dive was on.

A (66:26)

And this is an actual serious issue. I mean, I have a friend who at one point was addicted to fentanyl, and this person has had a relapse because of Kratom. Because Kratom, because it actually acts, as you say, like an opioid. Now, where can people get it? I believe it's just kind of sold over the counter like normal stores.

B (66:44)

Correct. You can get it at, like, a gas station. People are fighting at gas stations. They're going to smoke shops. And again, what I think is so nefarious about it is it is targeting people who are former addicts, which makes it so much more evil. You know, people that have had sobriety issues in the past, they're getting readdicted, thinking they're in the clear, and then they're going back to rehab. So it's. I've heard so many stories since we've released it of people reaching out, saying, hey, thanks for talking about this. My brother's addicted. We don't know what to do. And this is just. I mean, it's a huge thing that no one's talking about, which I think at the very least, people need to be aware of it before we discuss what to do about it.

A (67:17)

Well, the retailer of Kratom actually sent a cease and desist after Reagan's very first episode based on this. They just, what, wanted you to take down the episode.

B (67:27)

What was the ask yeah, people aren't happy to be talking about it. And I think that's only kind of reinvigorates the idea of, like, then there is an issue here. There is a gray area that, again, people have been operating in, and now they don't want it brought to light. And that's kind of the whole point of the show is we want to be bringing these issues to light, and whether they're gonna be people are gonna be angry about it or not, that's kind of the whole point, you know, is to keep exposing it. So that's what we're gonna do.

A (67:53)

So, Reagan, what other topics can we look forward to you covering on this? Is Reagan Conrad available at YouTube?

B (67:58)

Yeah, so we're on YouTube now. And like you said, you know, we have a couple different types of formats. It was one of the first things you asked me when I joined in this position. You're like, you know, what are you interested in? I was like, deep dives. That's what I love to do. So that's what we're doing. We've been doing it for months, kind of building these up. But our first one that's going to be coming out, well, we have the Kratom one on Saturday. We have our big episodes that launch, and the one that's coming up this weekend is about the education system, the failures that are happening, why we are such a great country, and yet we have a failing education system. And I interview a filmmaker who did a deep dive for about a decade to understand what is going so wrong. He found himself at the nea, corruption on so many levels. Teachers praising the satanic temple. I mean, it was the most insane deep dive that he did. So we talked to him about it and show a lot of those clips. And he has a documentary that's going to be coming out about that or that is out now on Angel Studios called the Death of Recess. Crazy, crazy story. So that's what's coming up this Saturday. And we're going to be doing a bunch of different things, whether it's regarding faith or culture or health. It's kind of like a deep dive into everything that I think is important, especially for young women, for new moms. It's going to be kind of for everybody, but it's. Yeah, it's things that I'm passionate about now. I'm just. I get to laser focus on and deep dive, which is very, very exciting.
