Podcast Host / Narrator
media, which calls itself Fox News is crumbling on live TV as again folds to Iran. Before the expiration of the purported cease fire in the war, Donald Trump talked a tough game. He said, iran, if you don't agree to negotiate a deal with us in Islamabad, Pakistan, before the cease fire expires, we're going to obliterate your bridges and your infrastructure and we really mean it this time. And Iran responded, we're not going to negotiate with you and Islamabad, Pakistan, if you continue to threaten us and you continue to have a naval blockade in the Persian Gulf. Stop threatening us, remove the naval blockade and we're happy to negotiate in Islamabad, Pakistan. Donald Trump refused to do those things. Iran refused to show up in Islamabad, Pakistan Air Force Two was loaded and ready to go with JD Vance and Whitcoff and Kushner. And then Pakistan said, yeah, Iran really meant it. They're not going to show up while you have the naval blockade and while you keep on threatening them. So are you going to change your position, Donald Trump and your regime? And are you going to agree to the ten point negotiating framework? And Trump was like, no. And then Pakistan said, okay, that Iran isn't showing up. So that's why Iran didn't show up. And Donald Trump had a choice. Donald Trump then could escalate or Donald Trump could do what Donald Trump does, which is extend the cease fire or Donald Trump could just give up. So Donald Trump says that he's extending the cease fire indefinitely and Trump makes up that the reason he's doing it is because there's no more leadership in Iran and they're in such disarray and nobody knows who's running Iran anymore. And therefore the United States is waiting for a counter proposal by Iran. And that's why Trump says, I am graciously agreeing to extend the ceasefire because that's what Pakistan wants me to do. And Iran's like, what are you talking about? We've given you a unified plan. It's called the ten point framework, which you previously agreed to before the ceasefire started. So what is state regime media, which calls itself Fox do? Because they've been talking up how tough Donald Trump is. They've been propagandizing their audience as state regime media does, telling their fox viewers, Donald Trump's got this one. He is involved in 4D chess and he's got Iran right where he wants. And now if You've been watching the Midas Touch Network where we've been focusing on the objective facts. You know, that Donald Trump is just winging this and that Donald Trump is lying about everything. And we've been just reporting on what's actually going on. But Fox viewers are like, wasn't Iran supposed to back down? How did dear leader Donald Trump not get Iran to do a deal? So again, state regime media, they have to figure out, like, what are we going to do? So they have Jesse Waters, who's basically their biggest clown, post the following. And he does this whole segment where he makes up a completely fictitious event that didn't happen at all. He says there's a coup underway in Iran. The, the Ayatollah is a gay man, Jesse Waters says, and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard just launched a coup against the gay Ayatollah. He's locked up. All of this civilian leadership is locked up with the gay Ayatollah, Water says. And now the Islamic Revolutionary Guard refuses to negotiate. It's their fault. And so right here we have a hostage crisis in Iran, and that's what's happening right now. And Donald Trump did four dimensional chess. And now Xi Jinping of China is so sc. Cause Xi Jinping is losing all of his friends. So China is weaker. North Korea is weaker. Russia is weaker. This was such a brilliant move by Donald Trump, folks. Everything that Jesse Waters says is just a completely fabricated lie. As you've been watching, because you've been watching this network, Iran's been very consistent about the 10 point framework. Donald Trump posted before the cease fire started. He agrees with the 10 point framework. Whether you like the framework or not doesn't matter. Trump said he agreed to it. And every day Donald Trump gives conflicting and contradictory messages where he'll say, I'm gonna obliterate you. Let's make a deal. We don't need the Strait of Hormuz. We need the Strait of Hormuz. Get the F out of the Strait of Hormuz. I'm going to obliterate your civilization. Oh, I like the new leadership. They're not as extreme. The new leadership is so extreme. And we know from all of our reporting, the reporting of CNN and Wall Street Journal and New York Times and PBS and others, that, that the top generals, that the top admirals, that the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, that the, that the NATO leaders are all looking at what Donald Trump's doing. They're like, you're making it literally impossible to do anything because you're erratic, you are addled and your behavior is ridiculous. Now, here's what Jesse Waters posted. He goes, breaking, the Iranian guard just took the Ayatollah hostage. False. That never happened. This is 100% a lie. Generals are blocking peace talks, holding their own negotiators hostage while the economy collapses. 100% false. Iran's economy is struggling, of course, in the sense that they are involved in war. They've been invaded. But there's no generals blocking peace talks, holding negotiators hostage. The economy's not about to collapse. They struggle. You know, they're in a war. He goes on to say, no one's calling the shots. A coup is in the works. Yeah, that's not true. I'm just making up a fake coup. And then he goes, US Warships stacking the region. One wrong move and it all ignites with all these, like, weird emojis. Everything about this is false. Everything about. And when you remember the discovery from the Dominion litigation, when state regime media, which calls itself Fox, was lying about the outcome of the 2020 election. They were sued by Dominion and had to settle for close to, like, a billion dol. The way they view their audience, do you remember how the Fox host would talk about their audience as being stupid and easy to manipulate? Right. It reminds me a little bit. Did you see that story in Wired where they talk about this person from India who created these AI images of, like, MAGA girls and these AI videos of, like, MAGA women? They weren't real, they were AI. And the person who was studying it at university India is like, yeah, these people are just so stupid and they're so easy to manipulate. That's why I created this, like, MAGA AI girl and interact with all these, like, MAGA people, and they give me all this money. In any event, this is what Jesse Waters is trying to do. So here he goes and starts to talk about the Ayatollah is a gay guy. Why is that even okay? And then there was a coup. Here's what he says. Play this clip.

Fox News Correspondent / Jesse Watters
Fox News alert. Bridge and power plant day could now be any day of the week. A fierce power struggle breaking out in Iran and President Trump showing a lot of patience. 47 says US airstrikes have seriously fractured the regime. So Pakistan asked us to hold off on BNP day until Iran can get it together tonight. There could be a coup. No one knows who's calling the shots. Vance, Witkoff and Kushner were supposed to leave for Islamabad, but they never took off because the Iranian delegation never took off, which is suspicious because this morning. Trump said the gay Ayatollah authorized the deal.

And he goes on with this fanciful tale about a coup taking place here. Play this clip.
- [11:58]
Fox News Correspondent / Jesse Watters
So the gay Ayatollah told his ministers wheels up. But the military said not so fast. We're basically looking at another Iranian hostage crisis. This time they've taken themselves hostage and therefore the negotiations. The IRGC won't agree to sign over the strait and the uranium. And they're the only votes that matter because they're the ones with the guns.
- [12:23]
Podcast Host / Narrator
And then he says, and Donald Trump now has outsmarted Xi Jinping and Xi Jinping no longer has friends. What are you talking about? China is stronger than ever as a result of this. Europe, Africa, Central America, South America, Mexico, Caribbean, Australia. They all view China China as a more stable and rational actor than the United States. China has just kind of set back. Let America make mistakes. And of course, behind the scenes, China's helping Iran as well. Or maybe not so behind the scenes. But what do you mean? Like what is this doing? You're gonna manipulate the viewer. I Think you're losing a lot of audience. I think they realize you're lying. But anyway, here's what Waters says. Play this clip.
- [13:08]
Fox News Correspondent / Jesse Watters
The blockade's ripple effect is hitting Beijing. Choke points are getting squeezed from the Gulf to the Strait of Malacca. It just so happens that we conducted joint naval exercises with the Japanese in the South China Sea. And the army just finished up joint live fire training with the Philippines. Xi's losing friends fast. The president putting pressure on the Middle Kingdom to make its proxy give up the dust. Vance isn't flying halfway across the world to Pakistan for nothing.

Podcast Host / Narrator
And then Jesse Watters continues. Let me show you the final clip of what he says. Let's play it.
- [13:42]
Fox News Correspondent / Jesse Watters
So the next round of airstrikes will be devastating if it happens. Hard to know exactly what's happening inside the ranks, but sources tell primetime the military sidelined the mullahs and are keeping the gay ayatollah alive as a figurehead while they assert control over negotiations. They basically have a gun to the head of the negotiators. And now everyone's afraid of getting killed, not just by the Americans, but by the Iranian military. It appears that there's already been somewhat of a soft military couple.

Podcast Host / Narrator
Then you have Caroline Levitt, and of course, she's got a lie. Here. Play this clip.

Finally had the courage to do. Our military took out more than 13,000 targets. The Iranian navy is in the bottom of the sea. We have completely depleted their air force, their military, their ability for their leaders to communicate with one another inside this radical regime. Yet the American media is still trying to say that the United States is in a worse off position than we were at the start of this, that Iran still poses a threat. It's all a bunch of nonsen. They are rooting against this president and therefore our country. And it's really despicable to watch. But the facts are the facts. President Trump has been the steady leader our country needs throughout this entire endeavor. And again, thanks to the success of the military operation and his hardline negotiating style, we're on the brink of a deal. And if not, the president, as commander in chief, still has a number of options at his disposal that he's unafraid to use. And President Trump has proven before he does not bluff when he makes a promise and he follows through on it. And I'm not sure why, after 10 years of covering this president, the American media still cannot understand when President Trump says he's going to do something, he's going to do it.
- [15:27]
Podcast Host / Narrator
So what's really happening again? As I mentioned at the outset, Iran says they have no interest in negotiating with Donald Trump until there's no naval blockade and until he agrees to the 10 point framework. Here are some alerts coming out of Iran in the Reuters wire. Trump cease fire. This is what Iran's leadership said said Trump's ceasefire extension means nothing. The losing side cannot dictate terms. Adviser to Iran's parliament speaker M.B. golubov said. And based on Jesse Waters lie, this is one of the people who are now locked up as part of the coup. Continuation of the blockade is no different from bombardment and must be met with a military response. Advisor to Iran's Parliament speaker says Trump's ceasefire extension is certainly a ploy to buy time for a surprise strike. Iran must take initiative. And again, an advisor to Iran's parliament speaker says Also Iran's foreign minister Iraqi posted the following message. Blockading Iranian ports is an act of war and thus a violation of the ceasefire. Striking a commercial vessel and taking its crew hostage is an even greater violation. Iran knows how to neutralize restrictions, how to defend its interests and how to resist bullying. Iran's Tasnim regime Media says the following continuation of a naval blockade amounts to continued hostility. As long as the blockade persists, Iran will at least not reopen the Strait of Hormuz and if necessary, it will end the blockade by force. Also, you have the Fars news agency in Iran. It's reposting what Ron Philipkowski from the Midas Touch Network, our editor in chief writes. Our editor in chief goes, I'm sure Trump has put the US In a very strong bargaining position by issuing two ultimatums with hard deadlines, only to back down both times after Iran called his bluff. 4D chess from the cult leader. And then Iran's media company commented on what our editor in chief Ron Philipkowski said. And here's what Iran's media company says. American analysts irony to Trump by backing down against Iran, you increased America's bargaining power. Iran has played its hand putting America in a very powerful bargaining position. What a complex strategy from this cult leader. And they're citing Ron, who's mocking Donald Trump here. And then of course, state regime media known as Fox, they need to try to change the topic. So they bring in Sean Duffy. And Sean Duffy says the following. Here, play this clip.
