Good morning, everyone. Happy Monday morning. Get ready for a very busy week. I'm going to try to record this without my daughter having to come pick me up. She's sitting right next to me right now watching her dad, which bring your daughter to work day here in the Parnas household. But I wanted to start off because the news of the day is already ramping up. Right now, the world is trying to erase President Donald Trump from their World cup celebrations. Spain posted official images of their World cup team hoisting the trophy cropping out. Donald Trump, an Australian broadcaster was caught on air on Hot mic saying, we're going to have to edit him out, referring to the president of the United States. And well, more it comes as the war in Iran continues to escalate. Another service member has died and we're learning now that the Trump administration should actually hid the total number of injuries and casualties in the war from the American public in an effort to try to make it seem not as bad. I have all the news right now. Make sure to like, comment, share and if you can subscribe to my substack link below to support my work. It's going to be a very busy week and I'm going to have news for you every single day without fail. I want to begin with how the world is reacting to the American President Trump trying to take over the World Cup. First, you have Spain. This is what the Spanish team posted on their social media channels. This is an image of Spain's national soccer Team hoisting the World cup trophy as fireworks or the celebrations nearby go off. Now, what's excluded in this image, what's cropped out is seemingly the President of the United States. See, he was actually sitting, or rather standing to the right of Spanish players as they picked up their World cup trophy. And despite him being there in real life, he wasn't actually in the images posted by Spain. And also, I want to show you the video showing where Trump was standing at the same time. You can see at the end as the cannons shoot off, that's where the president is standing, right next to the Spanish team. But in their official image, as the cannons are shooting off and the Spanish team is celebrating, the president isn't there. And that's not the only World cup celebration Trump was erased from. Australian broadcaster was caught on hot mic saying, we're gonna have to edit him out
C
in 2026. The champions of the world are Spain.
B
Now.
D
So they can.
C
I can edit him out of that.
B
They're gonna edit him out of that. That's what the Australian broadcaster was caught saying, edit him out, referring to the President of the United States. Now, the reason why is because, well, Spain and Trump are not friends. Trump has attacked Spain repeatedly, has said he wants to cut off all trade with Spain, has attacked Spain for not contributing enough to NATO and much more. And it comes as even an Argentine soccer player, Christian Romero, one of their star players, refused to shake Trump's hand. Take a look. You may have missed that. But the Argentine soccer star. I'll play it again for you. Refuse. Right over here. Here. Johnny Infantino puts his thing, his medal on, and then he walks right by Trump without shaking his hand, snubbing the American president of a handshake. Oh, my God. It comes as Donald Trump has been caught likely lying about the war in Iran. By the way, my daughter has now been upgraded to my lap buddy right next to me. So if you hear any cooing, it's because she wants to sit with her dad while he records this morning, rather than being rolling on the ground, she actually rolled for the first time today. And I know I'm going to get a lot of messages. We don't care what your daughter does. But alas, I do. And so she is part of my life and therefore part of this channel. The Washington Post, citing U.S. officials, is now reporting that the Trump administration is preparing for a broader conflict with Iran following a week of escalating attacks that have already killed three service members. According to the new report, the Pentagon is increasing the number of military aircraft in the region as officials plan for expanded operations. Though some officials are warning that dwindling stocks of air defense interceptors and long range munitions could ultimately limit the scope and duration of the campaign. And well, when asked about this, here's what the President had to say about the service members and where things stand with Iran.
C
Well, you keep hitting me. This is a far bigger job that we're doing. We would doing a little job is stopping them from having a certain capability, capability. Now we're just ending it. So it's really not the same thing. What we're doing now is we're ending any chance where they can have a nuclear missile. If you look at it, after a week and a half, not four weeks, a week and a half, two weeks, we stop them from probably. But I don't want to have the word probably. Thank you very much.
B
Thank you, sir. I don't want to have the word probably. That's what the President said. But we're now learning from the New York Times actually this morning that the White House may not be telling the full truth about what's happening in Iran. The New York Times is reporting that the United States military may have withheld details of three Iranian strikes in Jordan that wounded dozens of American troops and damaged several helicopters. Officials reportedly fear disclosure could improve Iran's targeting. More than 400 US service members have been injured during the war while the military death toll has now risen to 16. And the latest is from the Department of Defense announced the death of two active duty soldiers who are operating now. It's called Operation Inherent Resolve. It used to be Operation Epic Fury. The first service member who passed away is Tyler James Feehan of Hawaii. The second is private Isabella Gonzalez, 19 years old from Carrollton, Texas. They were killed during the airstrike on Jordan. There was a third service member who passed away. We learned of that as well yesterday, but they have not released his name. That is typical in the United States Army. They wait for the next of kin. Over across the pond in the United Kingdom, Keir Starmer has resigned. Here's what he had to say.
D
Leaving office, my work is done. In six and a half years. I took our party from a historic defeat in 2019, changed it so it was fit to face the country and won a landslide general election victory 2024. Since then, it has been the privilege of my life to serve you and this great country as Prime Minister. And I am confident that Britain is now stronger and fairer than it was two years ago. Our economy is stronger, our Public services are on the up with the biggest fall in waiting times for 17 years. Children are being lifted out of poverty every single day, immigration is down significantly, our defence and security are on a far stronger footing and our international reputation is greatly enhanced.

Andy Burnham, the new Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, has already asked the King to form a government and preparations have already begun in the uk.
