Full terms@mintmobile.com Donald Trump has been panicking all morning as the Strait of Hormuz is now closed. The IRGC Navy, Iran's top military command, has announced they are hereby to closing the Strait of Hormuz as a result of the United States and Israel's breach of the Memorandum of Understanding that was signed this past week by Donald Trump at Versailles. Israel has continued to escalate its attacks on Lebanon. Last night another 20 or so people in Lebanon have been killed. That death toll continues to Mount. Two days ago, Israel killed around 50 people in Lebanon. Southern Lebanon has been attack attacked relentlessly by Israel. Clause 1 of the Memorandum of Understanding very clearly says a complete and total ceasefire, which includes a cessation of Israel attacking Lebanon. I'm going to play for you in just a moment what the IRGC neva, the SAPA Navy just broadcasted as they closed down the Strait of Hormuz. But here is what Donald Trump is posting right now with all of this going on, with this potentially creating even more economic calamity, here's what Donald Trump writes Poll which do you prefer? Dumb Ocrat or Dumbocrat? In one case you simply exchange the E for U. So simple and precise. Many people don't know or assume that dumb ends in B. In the other case you spell out dumb, but it seems to be losing some of the identity to Democrats when done this way. Which is better? Or he posts this Funny how the Democrats like to say that Iran is in a stronger position today than they were three months ago, despite the fact that they had been defeated militarily with no navy or air force. That's why I call them the Democrats. DJT let's play the audio of the SEPA Navy, the IRGC Navy closing down the Strait of Hormuz. The Navy that Donald Trump says doesn't exist. Let's play this clip right now as the Strait of Hormuz has been closed. Let's play it.

This is Iran Islamic Revolutionary Guard North Navy. Due to the crimes of the Saya Banan and the violation of the US Commitment regarding the ceasefire, the state of Hormoz is close to all vessels. Again, it is emphasized that the state of Hirmod is closed all that Allah ordered. Do not approach the assay now.

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson said the following the first clause of the Memorandum of Understanding, namely ending the war on all fronts, including Lebanon, is the most important pillar of mutual commitments. While Iran has remained committed to its obligation, the other side was required to compel the Zionist regime to cease fire in Lebanon. By failing to do so, it has explicitly violated the agreement. Although steps have been taken regarding the end of the naval blockade and the reopening of the Strait of this memorandum constitutes a single package. A violation of the first clause calls the entire agreement into question and unless the other side immediately takes the necessary measures, the memorandum as a whole faces serious difficulties. One of the things we also knew as well that was taking place there was an uptick in the number of tankers sailing through the strait in both directions Thursday. But traffic pretty much dwindled on Friday as Israel escalated in Lebanon even more, or ships attempting to pass through the waterway said they were turned back by the Iranian navy. The Wall Street Journal reports Iran's Navy I thought Donald Trump said they didn't exist, and there are apocalyptic scenes right now out of southern Lebanon. But what's Donald Trump posting about this morning? Posts about Dr. Foushee. Biden administration buried a whistleblower complaint alleging Foushee lied to Congress during the pandemic. You're still attacking Dr. Foushee, career public servant who dedicated his life to helping the American people. That's what you're doing right now as the Strait of Hormuzza's close and as the American people are suffering. Or here's what Donald Trump posted this morning. Italian Prime Minister Giorgio Maloney asked over and over for a picture with me during the G7 meeting in France. By the way, yesterday Donald Trump called Italian press to try to mock Giorgia Meloni. And then she came out with a video in response saying, I really don't understand why you behave this way. Like why do you attack allies? It makes no sense to any of us why this is the behavior of the President of the United States. It's just so unbecoming of the United States. And like why you treat countries that are supposed to be your friends like this. We don't understand. So this is what Donald Trump's posting this morning while the Strait of Hormuz has now been closed. He then says about Giorgia Maloney. She's doing poorly in Italy with her level of popularity, possibly because she turned down the United States of America, a country that truly loves and protects Italy, when it came to denying Iran from obtaining or developing nuclear weapon. But so did NATO for that matter. She wouldn't even let us use Italy's landing strips or runways, a great logistical inconvenience. And this despite the fact that the US Contributes hundreds of billions of dollars a year to protect Italy and other so called NATO allies. Now, after the United States defeated Iran militarily, she wants to be friends again in order to get her numbers up. No thanks. DJT. Donald Trump's approval in Italy is less than 8%. Let me repeat that. Donald Trump's approval in Italy is less than 8%. Donald Trump attacking Giorgia Maloney like this actually helps Giorgia Maloney. And Giorgia Maloney is a fairly far right wing politician and naturally Donald Trump should be more allied with someone like Georgia Maloney. But because Donald Trump hates women, hates NATO, hates anybody other than Putin and Xi Jinping, this is how this despicable, vile piece of trash behaves. Georgia Maloney responds. President Trump, these constant unprovoked attacks are senseless. As for my popularity, being your friend certainly has not helped it, nor does it depend on My relationship with you, my popularity depends on my ability to defend Italy's national interest. And that is exactly what I have always done. That is also what I did regarding the American military bases in Italy. Their use is governed by agreements that we have always respected and that cannot be violated. As long as I am prime minister, Italy remains a sovereign nation. In any case, my popularity is none of your concern. I suggest you focus on yours. And you can tell that Donald Trump is panicking behind the scenes because he has centcom, which has turned into a propaganda arm for the regime, is now posting things like this. And CENTCOM has completely and utterly lost all credibility in this war. They would just make some of the most basic and blatant lies. Remember, they'd be like, Kuwait was not hit with any Iranian drones. And he would like, see Kuwait get hit. Or Bahrain was never hit. You would, like, see it get hit. You're like, okay, centcom's just like. It's just become like a Trump truth social account. So now they know with the Strait of Hormuz close, that the economy is gonna further tank and the markets are gonna crash. Right? And that oil is about to surge again after oil prices started coming down and we're about to hit tank bottom. So what do you do if you're a Bernie Madoff on steroids, on nuclear steroids, fraud. I mean, like Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme is nothing. What Donald Trump and Lutnick and Besant and Centcom are doing in the United States. So what do you do? You put out a statement just like this, right? Commercial vessel flows through open Strait of Hormuz. This is a message to the oil industry and the stock market for manipulation. Right here. This is what Centcom post. Commercial ship traffic in the Strait of Hormuz increased on June 20 as US forces continued operating in the general area to support freedom of navigation. Safe passage through international waterway remained intact today as 55 merchant ships transited moving large amounts of cargo and more than 17 million barrels of oil to the global markets. By the way, how much of that oil is Iranian oil going through the Iranian corridor with the blockade being lifted and not these commercial ships? And also they're just blatantly lying. More post about Donald Trump. Radical left fools Democrats. Obama just kept giving them billions in cash. Now Donald Trump wants to just overwhelm us all with this chaos, with this tyranny, with this propaganda, with this lies, repeat a big lie over and over again. Goble said that over and over and over again and just flood the zone he has a trillion dollar right wing media enterprise and network. Not his, his businesses all fail. But from the right wing oligarchs that support what he does, just push it out and flood the zone while the American people are suffering right now. Can't afford rent, can't afford gas, can't afford anything. It's more lies as the Strait of Hormuz is closed. So then they put J.D. vance on TV. J.D. vance goes on, where else? State, regime, media. And he says, I'm confident we'll maintain the ceasefire. Here's what JD says, let's play it.
- [11:36]
D
So first of all, Rachel, I'm very confident we can maintain the cease fire. And I don't know if there's a divergence of goals or sometimes just a divergence of how to accomplish those goals. I obviously don't want to speak for the Israeli government.
- [11:47]
C
Also, JD Vance, who purports to be the Vice President of the United States, claims he doesn't understand diplomatic protocols. I've never really been into it. I never really understand it. Could you imagine if former Vice President Kamala Harris went on CNN or Midas Touch or MsNow and said I just don't know diplomatic protocol. I'm just the Vice President. You expect me to know diplomatic protocols? I delegate that out here. Play this clip. So do you have any immediate plans to join Jared and Steve?
- [12:23]
D
Yeah, I expect that I will leave sometime the next couple of days. But you know, it's always a delicate coordination dance. And the diplomatic protocols, I gotta be honest with you, I don't really understand these things. I've never been particularly into diplomatic protocols. My attitude is let's get on the ground and actually fix these problems. But they want to do a delicate dance. The Qataris and the Pakistanis want to make sure that we do this in the right way. So I'm trying to be respectful. Given my, my position of the last year and a half, I have to care about diplomatic protocols all of a sudden.
- [12:54]
C
More from JD Vance right here who claims the straits are open and things are going amazing. Let's play it.
- [12:59]
D
Jared and Steve have been on the ground now for a few hours dealing with some of the technical elements of this negotiation. As you guys know, one of the things the President has set us out to do as a high priority is to open the straits. That's now happened. We actually got 16 million barrels of oil out of the straits.

C
And then his message to the Christians in Lebanon being killed right now by Israel. It's just think about Jesus. Just Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. And then you'll be good. Here, play this clip.
- [13:28]
D
I would just say that to those Christians in Lebanon. Keep your faith in Jesus Christ and know that you have a lot of good friends in the United States government who are trying to promote peace in the region. You know, the fundamental problem for those Christians or the reason that those Christians face such violence is because you have Hezbollah, a terrorist organization that is effectively taken up shop in Lebanon. Sometimes they're firing at the Israelis. Of course that means the Israelis are going to respond in self defense. And so there's this constant slow burn of conflict. It's actually gotten a lot better, Rachel, over the last couple of weeks thanks to the work of the President of Secretary Rubio and of a whole lot of others in the administration. But sometimes peace takes a little bit of time to really take root.

Now we have Israel's Defense Minister, Israel Katz said the following about Lebanon. The entire first line of Lebanese villages has been destroyed. We're destroying Lebanese houses. The residents will never see them standing before their eyes again. I read you Ben Gvir's statement about how he wants for thousands of Lebanese mothers to weep and that we're unleashing hell and we're gonna kill everybody over there. I mean, it's just the most horrific message I read yesterday. You have Ambassador Michael Leiter, the Israeli ambassador to the United States. He's posting Hezbollah broke the ceasefire, not Israel. Terrorist lie. Hezbollah is a terrorist organization. Hezbollah lies. Iran is using its proxies to extract concessions. That is the motorist Amarandi of a murderous dream. Don't be fooled. Israel has no territorial ambitious in Lebanon. Israel seeks to live side by side with its neighbors behind secure and recognized borders. Israel is honoring the ceasefire while defending itself against terrorist attacks as any self respecting country would. More details to come. Ryan Grim quotes this Israeli ambassador to the US and says Israel seeks to live side by side with its neighbors behind secure and recognized borders. Israel, of course is inside Lebanon. It's inside Lebanese territory, which is the opposite of behind the border they are refusing to leave. And now the Strait of Hormuz is closed again. As a result, it is more important to Israel to expand the territory it occupies than it is to comply with the MoU agreed to by the United States, which Israel claims to be an ally of. And we heard from all of the Israeli leaders yesterday saying that they're gonna destroy Lebanon. And then they did it and then they killed all these innocent people. We have photos of the innocent mothers and families and children. And I think about my little daughter Ximena. And I think about these little images of these little girls here who have been murdered in the last 48 hours. Close to 100 people, mostly innocent kids and mothers and fathers, have been killed. And it is beyond tragic. It is beyond horrific. We also are learning though, that Iran is pursuing a two fangled strategy while they choke the Strait of Hormuz. They've also said, though, you want us to show up in Switzerland, you want us to show up and continue to discuss this memorandum of understanding. Okay, well, we'll shut down the Strait of Hormuz, but we'll show up to Switzerland. And guess who Iran is sending to Switzerland while they shut down the Strait of Hormuz? A delegation led by, get this, Golubov, the parliament leader, Abbasaragc, the Foreign Minister, the Deputy SNSC head Ali Bagher Khani, Central Bank Governor Abdel Nassar Hamanati, Deputy Foreign Minister Gabrabadi and Baki, and Deputy Oil Minister Hamid Bord. As Babak Vadad explains, the composition here is striking. Diplomacy, national security, sanctions, relief, banking and energy are all represented. At the senior level, this looks less like a routine negotiating team who's heading to Switzerland right now, and more like a delegation prepared to discuss implementation of a broader framework. Who's the United States sending? Steve Witkoff. Why? That guy? Who is this guy? Some guy who was involved in New York real estate in Harlem, some slum lord. Witkoff. Jared Kushner, Donald Trump's son in law, who was about to go bankrupt with his 666 Fifth Avenue during Trump's first term. And the Qataris had to basically bail him out by giving money to private equity that then helped Jared get bailed out of his venture over there. Jared Kushner. Look, I despise Marco Rubio, but isn't this the role of like the Secretary of State? Isn't that like our top diplomat should be there? No, we don't have them there.

vance may be going now. Also who you just saw over there, J.D. vance maybe gone. And I'll leave you with this right here. This is from Ehud Olmert, former Prime Minister of Israel. He wrote in Haaretz the following. This is a former Prime Minister of Israel who wrote this. Israel is conducting a systematic campaign of ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity in the West Bank. As Mehdi Hasan writes, if you were to write this headline or article in a variety of us, uk, German or French media outlets, your career might be on the line and you'd probably be accused of antisemitism. And yet the author of this piece is the former prime minister of Israel. And Ehud Omar says these are unprecedented and harsh accusations against an Israeli government and the defense establishment, especially from a former prime minister. But after years of restraint, I have no choice but to make them. Oh, and then moments ago, Donald Trump just posted this Trump holds the cards in Netanyahu's shaky reelection chances. Trump holds the cards? Really? You think you hold? After all I've just said, you think you hold the cards here? No. You hold your phone with your fat, tiny little thumbs and you make social media posts like a little troll. The world has zero respect for you. You are something even weaker and worse than a paper tiger, because the word paper tiger is. Has the word tiger in it. You know what you are, Donald? You are a crumpled piece of paper. You are a crump. You're not a paper tie. You are a crumpled piece of paper that deserves to be thrown in the trash. And you've destroyed the United States standing in the world. You've destroyed the lives of millions of Americans. You've destroyed the lives of people throughout the world. And it is such a disgusting and despicable thing that just you are.
