Rob Carson
You are about to hear the most interesting, informative, thought provoking and funny show in America on air and on the World Wide Web. This is the Rob Carson Show. This is the Rob Carson Show. It is already Tuesday. The what? 7th. My guys, the 7th of April already. April is going by and we got a lot of stuff. We got a lot of balls in the air, as you like to say it, and soon missiles as well in the air and bombs and whatnot. It's kind of interesting. The radical Islamists who are in charge of Iran, their hubris and arrogance are going to cost them their lives. This is something that's repeated through history. When you have people who are arrogant and ignorant and they're also not terribly intelligent people and in the face of absolute destruction, continue their belligerence. It never ends well for people who believe this way. So Iran's parliament speaker, Mohammed Bagar, golly, boff, I guess, was speaking on behalf of the cardboard ayatollah who clearly is dead, said that Donald Trump has. Has 20 hours to submit to Iran or face devastating consequences for U.S. allies. So, so he's saying that we better, we better surrender after we've sunk all of their navy, destroyed their nuclear capabilities, destroyed their, their drone capabilities, destroyed their air force destro. Missile, you know, capabilities and whatnot. And we've got 20 hours to submit to Iran or his allies will return to the Stone Age. They're going to return us to the Stone Age. We're already, We've already done that to you. Iran has clearly won the war and will only accept. Can you, can you smoke weed if you are a radical Islamist? Because he's got some, I mean, he must be smoking some serious. Maybe it's hashish over there. Remember hashish? I don't even remember. I never smoked hashish. But anyway, hashish maybe is what they smoke over there. Iran has clearly won the war. They got a really bad way of showing how they won and will only accept an ending that stabilizes its achievements and created a new security regime in the region. We will not back down. And here is what the president said about that yesterday.
- [02:48]
Donald Trump
We have a plan because of the power of our military, where every bridge in Iran will be decimated by 12 o' clock tomorrow night, where every power plant in Iran will be out of business, burning, exploding, and never to be used again. I mean, complete.
- [03:09]
Rob Carson
I would. I'd believe him if I were you, because he said that we would wrap up this war in four to six weeks. And we're actually ahead of schedule with all the. The strikes, the 9,000 strikes that have landed and destroyed Iran's military. So I've listened to him, you know,
- [03:23]
Donald Trump
demolition by 12 o'. Clock. And it'll happen over a period of four hours.
- [03:28]
Rob Carson
If we say we're starting at 8 o' clock tonight and it's going to be done by midnight. So four hours. So it's, it's, it's the plan. It's the plan. And again, I would listen to him because they have no ability to stop any sorties right now from flying in. So it will be easy picking one or two.
- [03:45]
Donald Trump
We don't want that to happen. We may even get involved with helping them rebuild their nation. And you know what? If that's the case, the last thing we want to do is start with power plants, which are among the most expensive thing. And bridges. You saw the bridge. The bridge went. We were very close to a deal. And then I got a call from Mr. Witkoff, Mr. Kushner and JD saying, I think they're breaking the deal.
- [04:13]
Rob Carson
Wow.
- [04:14]
Donald Trump
I said, tell them that's okay. Don't worry about it. Yeah, but tell them to look out their window and watch. And within 45 minutes, I gave the order to knock out the biggest bridge. Yeah, I gave the order. Knock out the biggest bridge in, I believe, the Middle east, but the biggest bridge in Iran.
- [04:30]
Rob Carson
Yeah, Took it out.
- [04:31]
Donald Trump
And within 10 minutes after I gave that order, that bridge was. Was over.
- [04:37]
Rob Carson
Yeah, I would listen to him. In the meantime, Democrats are saying that we should pursue a diplomatic solution, maybe send them some more money, like Barack Obama. Here's Ro Khanna. Ro Khanna saying that clearly a diplomatic solution is in order here.
- [04:55]
Ro Khanna
We need to end the war, and we can do it with three things. We need an immediate.
- [04:58]
Rob Carson
You wanted to end this day one. You said it was a disaster on day one. You have no say in this whatsoever. You allowed Iran to become what they are now, the Democrat Party. And Barack Obama sent them pallets of cash in planes that they spent on weapons and missiles. Joe Biden freed up $67 billion in assets so they could buy more weapons. You have no say in this whatsoever.
- [05:23]
Ro Khanna
Ceasefire. Stop the bombing. We need to make sure that we give Iran an Ironclad.
- [05:28]
Rob Carson
You don't, you don't declare a ceasefire when you're winning. When you're winning, you don't declare a ceasefire. Any idiot knows that Israel or we
- [05:37]
Ro Khanna
will not attack again and involve China and Russia in that.
- [05:41]
Rob Carson
And yeah, we want to involve China and Russia, the people who have, I don't know, Uyghur slaves building cell phones and stuff.
- [05:49]
Ro Khanna
And we need to look at some of the sanctions and have a diplomatic solution.
- [05:53]
News Reporter
Where does the Strait of Hormuz fall
- [05:56]
Rob Carson
into that, on that item list?
- [05:59]
Ro Khanna
Well, that's the only way in my view, that we get the Strait of Hormuz open. If we don't give.
- [06:04]
Rob Carson
No, actually there are a whole bunch of countries stepping forward to open the Straits of Hormuz because Donald Trump said we're not going protected anymore. We don't get any of our oil through there. So maybe you ought to step up and do something. And now certain countries like Japan are stepping forward and saying, okay, we're going to go ahead and take care of this. So honestly, you are in the position to demand nothing? Nothing at all. Iran has cut off all diplomatic and back channel contact with the US State media. Okay, again, not a great idea. Iran has closed all diplomatic and indirect channels of communications with the United States, the state run Tehran Times reported on Tuesday. Any and all messages, exchanges of all also been suspended. Okay, well that's fine. Just wait for the booming. Just wait for the booming. The report said options include no action, progress toward deal or talks or strikes. But noted Trump rarely sets deadlines without following through. Is he also, he did campaign promises and he followed through. That's why we vote for him. You say so there you go. That is the, the arrogance of the Iranian regime. Trump threatens to bomb Iran power plants. Tehran preps human chain shield so this is what they're going to do. They're going to line up their, their people. Actually very few are really supporting the regime anymore. So chances are they're doing it this at the barrel of a gun. Trump has expanded his threat against Iran to include all power plants and bridges as his ultimatum to make a deal ticked closer. By the way, millions of Iranians are in support of the action tonight. That is 13 hours before Trump's deadline for the Strait of Hormones to reopen at 3:30am local time. The action has informed at the suggestion of the youth themselves. According to Iran's Deputy of Youth affairs, Alira Rahimi, a number of university youth, young artists and youth organizations propose that we form a human ring or human chain around the country's power plants. Sure. They probably said, hey, hey, we're going to do a class project today. We're going to go learn about generating power today. Here, carry this flag and hold hands. According to the Iranian minister, the symbolic action is called the human chain of Iran's Youth for a Bright Future. And I think when he says bright future he means a very bright light before a shock wave that knocks you on your rear end as the the bridge of the power planter exploded. So there you go. We hope that with the participation of young people across the country, this human chain will be formed around power plants and it will be a sign of the youth's commitment to protecting the country's infrastruct and building a bright future. Yeah, good luck with that. Good luck with that because you're not dealing with Barack Obama by the way. You are not us Strike Strategic Karg Island Kharg Island Bridge before the Trump deadline Explosions have been reported on Karg island, an important oil expert hub near the Straits of Hormuz on Tuesday. According to a semi official Iranian news agency mayor the strike comes hours before the deadline War at Wall street journal the US has struck more than 50 targets on Karg is have not hit any of the oil infrastructure. These are military targets so they're softening up their targets. The Israeli military in a statement said that it completed a broad wave of strikes targeting infrastructure sites along across Iran on Tuesday. However, it did not provide any details of what those strikes are, but they clearly are happening across the country. Here is a Trey Yingst reporting today from what's happening in Iran, confirming to
- [09:42]
News Reporter
Fox News that the Israelis have started strikes against Iranian rail infrastructure. Remember earlier today the Israelis warned civilians to stay off the trains in Iran. They've started to target the bridges of the rail system in Iran as we speak. Additionally you have these strikes overnight against Kharg island, the largest export facility in Iranian territory, accounting for around 90% of Iran's oil exports. And you have ongoing US and Israeli strikes against Iranian military infrastructure. What we are looking at right now is a staging operation the United States and Israel are preparing.
- [10:17]
Rob Carson
If a deal is to kick butt, take names and most of those names will be Mohammed Made.
- [10:21]
News Reporter
There will be an increase in strikes against the Iranian regime. The President described it as power plant day and bridge day to go after this critical infrastructure inside of Iran. But what's very interesting here, I spoke with a high ranking source last night and I asked what happens next if the President orders these strikes. And they said again this is the Achilles heel of the regime, targeting energy infrastructure. And what it may actually do is force their hand at the negotiating table because again, the president has, time and time again, even before Operation Epic Fury began, preferred a diplomatic option, but the Iranians have been unwilling to take a diplomatic.
- [10:56]
Rob Carson
Yeah, because they are arrogant and they are stupid. So that's the reason why they're choosing this path. And you know, there is an expression you've heard before, you make your bed, you lie in it, and that's what they're going to do. Unfortunately, though, it's not going to be bad. It's going to be a grave, actually. For those in charge of Iran, this is, this is actually kind of a blessing because they are asking for it. Their pride will ultimately seal their fate. So there you go. And freedom is going to come to the people of Iran, the Persian people and others, and it's going to be pretty glorious. Absolutely, 100%. We are on a, we are on the side of good. That's it. That's all. Let's take a break and come back. Blaine Holt's gonna be joining us at the bottom of the hour to give us some perspective. So don't go anywhere. Let's take a break.

Donald Trump
We've knocked out even their mind droppers. They don't have any mind droppers anymore, but they put them on other boats and they could drop them. I'm not even sure they have any minds yet, by the way? I'm not sure. I'm personally. They say there might be eight. I don't know. I don't know. I think there might be none because they're very good bull artists. That's why for 47 years they've been bull other presidents and they haven't done the job.
- [13:31]
Rob Carson
Yeah. There's a point where you just gotta say, I think I'm kind of done with this bull crap. Here's Jim Gossett.
- [13:37]
Jim Gossett
It's time to wipe out a red
- [13:42]
Donald Trump
coach.
- [13:42]
Jim Gossett
Tavico Laney. He is one marked man. Funding all their power plants. That's the master plan. It's time that we w. Yeah, I
- [13:56]
Rob Carson
think we're kind of done with it.
- [13:58]
Jim Gossett
Never should have turned down a ceasefire.
- [14:01]
Rob Carson
Well, they're arrogant.
- [14:02]
Jim Gossett
You see a decision they will soon regret.
- [14:06]
Rob Carson
They're making up for small manhood. I think what it is cause our
- [14:09]
Jim Gossett
next offensive in Tehran be the biggest we've done yet. It's time to wipe out a rant.
- [14:22]
Rob Carson
Yeah, I think we're done with them.
- [14:24]
Jim Gossett
Of our military. I'm a fan mothers. They are shaken because they understand
- [14:35]
Donald Trump
we
- [14:35]
Jim Gossett
gotta finish off the rest.
- [14:37]
Rob Carson
Yeah, we are in a battle of good and evil people. And the evil has been kind of waging war on the rest of the world for 47 years. I was a kid when the Ayatollah took over. And then we've had 50,000 plus terror attacks around the entire world. We saw the expansion of Hamas and Hezbollah and other organizations around the world. And of course the Chamberlains of America, Barack Obama, the Democrat party and Joe Biden enabled them, enriched them, gave them the capability to do much more. And Donald Trump came in and said I think we're kind of done with this bullcrap and said that we are going to, we're going to stop this nonsense. Also sent in Steve Witkoff and others and they, they bragged about having enough nuclear material for 11 bombs. And then we found out that they had the capability to send a missile a couple thousand miles which could have landed in Paris or London. That they would have done it by the way they would have done it. So we have every good reason to have been doing this and to. And to finally take them put them out of business. And the Democrat Party can't stand it because they hate Donald Trump and it's not happening on their watch. There you go. That's it. That's that we are on the good side of. Well, we're in a bad. I told you this and I And I believe this. And it's been going on for years. We are the reaction to the action of evil that is spread around the entire world. We've watched it run roughshod over our country and other countries. And now we are the reaction. And we're seeing totalitarianism, communism, Marxism being driven back in places like Venezuela, in countries in Central and South America, in Cuba, you know, and then, of course, freedom and patriotism sweeping through parts of Europe, through Poland and Hungary, among other places. And now we're going after radical Islam. And we are on the side of good. We are on the side of good. And I'll tell you, you know, if, for instance, say, for instance, the Soviet Union sent people to the far side of the moon, or Communist China sent astronauts to the far side of the moon, further than any man has traveled from Earth, what do you suppose? Who do you suppose they would thank? They would thank the Dear Leader. They would thank the party. So isn't it amazing that the country that wrote into its founding documents that our rights come from God, not man, so they can't be taken away? Isn't it amazing that we're the country that is doing this? This is the message from Victor Glover right before we went to the other side of the moon.
- [17:29]
Victor Glover
Reminds you of one of the most important mysteries there on Earth, and that's love. Christ said in response to what was the greatest command? That it was to love God with all that you are. And he also, being a great teacher, said the second is equal to it, and that is to love your neighbor as yourself.
- [17:50]
Rob Carson
What would Iran be saying? What would their astronauts be saying? Allah U Akbar. Kill all the Christians, I suppose.
- [17:57]
Victor Glover
So, as we prepare to go out
- [18:00]
Rob Carson
of reach from the river to the
- [18:01]
Victor Glover
sea of communication, we're still able to feel your love from Earth. And to all of you down there on Earth and around Earth, we love you from the moon.
- [18:18]
News Reporter
Wow.
- [18:22]
General Blaine Holt
Houston copies. We'll see you on the other side.
- [18:26]
Rob Carson
We are the most kind and benevolent and generous society to exist in the history of the world. We brought the world from the dark ages into electricity and the Internet and space travel and air travel and the best living conditions and quality of life that ever existed before the United States of America. And I'm bloody well sick and tired of the haters. Really, really sick and dang tired of the haters. This is Artemis as they emerged from the dark side of the mo.
- [18:56]
Victor Glover
Houston, we have you the same. And it is so great to hear from Earth again to Asia, Africa and Oceania. We are looking back at you. We hear you can look.
- [19:07]
Rob Carson
Wow. Absolutely. Absolutely amazing that we in 2026 are seeing this. Did you see the pictures that no one has ever seen before of the lunar surface? You're alive to see this. For the first time in history, you're alive to see it. Don't let anybody take away from this moment. Don't take anybody, let anyone take away from the glory of this moment, from something that no human being in history has seen until now. How glorious is it? And it's made possible by the United States of America as we surpass the
- [19:41]
Victor Glover
furthest distance humans have ever traveled from planet Earth. We do so in honoring the extraordinary efforts and feats of our predecessors in human space exploration. We will continue our journey even further into space before Mother Earth succeeds in pulling us back to everything that we hold dear. But we, most importantly, choose this moment to challenge this generation and the next, to make sure this record is not long lived.
- [20:14]
Rob Carson
Wow. Just wow. And for those of you who have been experiencing the same thing that I have the last week, which is hearing this song in your head constantly.
- [20:34]
Jim Gossett
Thundering, you're in.
- [20:36]
Rob Carson
Come on.
- [20:37]
General Blaine Holt
You shout.
- [20:39]
Jim Gossett
No one seems to hear. And if the band you're in starts playing different cheers. See you on the dark side of the moon.
- [20:55]
Rob Carson
There you go. That's been in my head for the last week. I know. It's been in yours and America. There you go. Let's take a break and come back. Blaine Holt joins us next. Don't go anywhere. Hey, guys, it's Carson. I just got a ghost bed. Yeah, pay attention here because I've been sleeping on a foam mattress since I moved to the Washington, D.C. area, which is like sleeping on the sponge in your sink. Ghostbed doesn't build mattresses like furniture. They build engineered sleep systems. Their beds are serious health equipment. Beds designed for relief and recovery, not looks, not fluff. Your body should be healing while you sleep, not fighting for comfort. I have been sleeping past seven in the morning on my ghost bed. It's unbelievable. If you wake up stiff, you toss and turn. If you sleep hot, even reaching for a pain reliever before bed, hoping tonight will be different. That's not aging, it's your mattress talking. Another great thing I love about Ghostbed, you get 101 nights to try it at home. If you don't like the difference, you can send it back risk free. Ghostbed is offering my audience their lowest prices of the season plus an extra 10% off. Go to Ghostbed.com Carson use promo code Carson. That's Ghostbed.com Carson promo code. Carson, you are going to love your new ghost bed.
- [22:40]
Jim Gossett
And if the band you're in starts playing different, you
- [22:47]
Rob Carson
see you on the
- [22:48]
Jim Gossett
dark side of the moon.
- [22:51]
Rob Carson
I just thought I would play the song that has been echoing in probably 70% of the world's mind the last week or so. It certainly mine the last. And I, and I know my fellow Gen Xer General Blade Holt feels the same way. How are you, sir?
- [23:09]
General Blaine Holt
Doing great. We are in interesting times, are we not?
- [23:13]
Rob Carson
Oh, brother. You know, it is the best of times, it is the worst of times, you know, but some amazing things have happened.
- [23:21]
General Blaine Holt
The boat rocked about the surf.
- [23:23]
Rob Carson
I swear it is, it's remarkable. You know, we had the, the American pilot, the second American pilot rescued on, on Easter. We woke up to that news on Easter morning. We've got astronauts and we're seeing pictures from that no human has seen before. I've never lost my sense of wonder when it comes like this. We are on the verge of seeing the Iran free after 47 years of terror, being a tick on the back of the world sucking the blood of innocence and they're ready to fall. And today, General Iran's parliamentary speaker, Mohamed Bagdar Galibod said President Trump has 20 hours to submit to Iran or face devastating consequences. So what do you think of that?
- [24:12]
General Blaine Holt
He means it. Look, I think you don't, before events happen, you don't want to make too much out of them because you really don't know what's going to happen. The President has had some awfully interesting social media posts and I believe they've been directed at the Iranian people themselves and that they know what he means by those things. I think we're going to see a deadline tonight get passed. There's no way the mullahs can reverse gear out of this because they'd be shocked by their own people. And I don't think also the President's going to take a sledgehammer to this. I think he's taking more of a scalpel. So when he says here comes the power plants, here comes the, the bridges, well, let's see what that means because right now you've got the regime doing what we predicted. They're rounding up innocent young people and chaining them defenses in front of power grids. Well, guess what? The veneer of that lie came off. Now the now the Iranian people can see for themselves who these monsters truly are, despite the propaganda.
- [25:08]
Rob Carson
Oh, but they say that young people, a number of university youth, youth artists and youth organizations proposed that we form a human ring or human chain around the country's power plants. Yeah, sure. The young people of Iran want more of this, particularly the young women of Iran. They want more subjugation and torture and death.
- [25:27]
General Blaine Holt
Oh, yeah, no, this is exactly right. And so, you know, we're talking, the young people that want to see this happen are actually the young people who are the sons and daughters of the mullahs themselves. You saw that we're now taking deportation actions finally against the Qaseem Suleimani girls that had been hiding out in Los Angeles, living the high life in their G wagons and sequins. And they're leaving. You gotta go.
- [25:53]
Rob Carson
Yeah, yeah. I can't imagine they will be well welcomed by the people of Iran when they.
- [26:01]
General Blaine Holt
Different life.
- [26:02]
Rob Carson
Yeah, yeah, because they, they of course, chant death to the great Satan, America, while they fly places in private helicopters on the, with the money of the Iranian people and Iranian oil behind them. Iran has cut all diplomatic and back channel contact with the US and state media. And so they have cut off all communication whatsoever. So it sounds like no more negotiation. They're going to see, you know, what we, what we do here. What do you think's gonna happen?
- [26:34]
General Blaine Holt
I, I think today until 8pm Eastern, I think the day is kind of, kind of be uneventful in terms of the mullahs there. If yes, they don't talk to us and they can't talk to us, but Pakistan and China and others are screaming at them. Yeah, you, if you don't respect the United States military by now, then you're just crazy because we have shown that we are up for this and we have not shown all of our capabilities. And the other part is, is we're not going to be the lead in force here. It's going to be 90 million really ticked off Iranian people who want their country back. And, you know, they're going to ask for bombs in certain places and we're going to deliver. And if they need a couple of guns or some spare parts for guns, deliver that too.
- [27:22]
Rob Carson
Yeah, there are certainly a million IRGC members dispersed throughout the country. We've seen, I don't know, a smattering of attacks, I shouldn't say smattering, a pretty good amount of attacks of people, you know, calling in Israeli intelligence sources, exposing these IRCG members and killing them. We also killed a whole bunch of them with some bunker busters, including one of the heads of the IRGC like this, wasn't he the principal propaganda officer or communications officer? So, I mean, considering what we have done? What have we held back, Blaine? What, what, what have we held back? What, what sort of hell can we bring them tonight that that would make them finally, you know, disregard their arrogance?
- [28:13]
General Blaine Holt
Well, I think, I think what you're going to see is a combination of effects from ground based resources that we have, the kind, you know, we like, helped our airmen get out of there. The CIA has folks, we've got new capabilities, electronic warfare capabilities that they haven't seen. And again, I think a lot of this is all going to fit one central theme and that's bolster and support the Iranian people. And, and then in terms of the 1 million IRGC forces, have you ever been a member of a club that suddenly the club really wasn't working out for you and you, you wanted to drop your membership and move on to something else? I think that's where a lot of them are going to be after tonight. And they find out that not only are the top three tiers of mullahs gone, but the fourth and the fifth and the sixth. And a lot of IRGC folks are going to, are going to go visit with Allah tonight.
- [29:02]
Rob Carson
Absolutely. Also Israel, Israel is, is already doing strikes on bridges and whatnot. So they're doing a little bit of the heavy lifting already today. And then Also I'm hearing 50 strikes on CARG island, not of the oil infrastructure. What are they just hitting military targets on car guy Island?
- [29:19]
General Blaine Holt
Yeah, they are. And the reason is, is you want to make sure that this regime, if it sees its end coming, that it on their way to become martyrs, that they don't decide to sabotage all of the oil infrastructure and wipe out, just create a much bigger problem than the one that exists now. So the Iranians need an economy. China needs to be able to buy gas, so does Europe. And, and we're going to try to protect that infrastructure to keep that from falling.
- [29:46]
Rob Carson
Also I'll mention last night I saw several reports about how traffic through the Straits Hormuz has really opened up. And it sounds like Iran has nothing more than a threat capability to say that we're going to mine it and whatnot. Donald Trump mentioned yesterday the mining operation is done. We have allies helping us out. So it sounds like they don't have a lot of control over the ability to shut down the Straits of Hormuz or to, you know, charge a toll to go. They don't have control of it anymore. More.
- [30:16]
General Blaine Holt
No, no. And they're running out of bombs and they're running out of bullets. They're running out of morale There's a lot of people that are turning. And so, you know, I think the ground is very, very fertile for what we're about to see. The only thing I would also add is that, you know, we just don't know what these operations and missions are going to look like. We also don't know if this is going to be the night of terror cell activation here in the United States. So, yeah, I would encourage all my fellow Americans, today's a really, really good day, guys, to be hopped off on your gas, have some food in the locker, maybe have some batteries and some radios and, and just the basics. Not to freak out. You don't need to go to bunker then keep your head on a swivel and have be in communion and league with your neighborhood.
- [31:01]
Rob Carson
100%, brother. Let's take a break and come back. We've got more with General Blaine Holt, by the way, on the other side of the break. Let's go ahead and take that break. This is the Rob Carson truck.

His first message was simple and it was powerful. He sent a message, God is good. In that moment of isolation and danger, his faith and fighting spirit shone through. You see, shot down on a Friday, Good Friday. Hidden in a cave, a crevice all of Saturday and rescued on Sunday. Flown out of Iran as the sun was rising on Easter Sunday, a pilot reborn. All home and accounted for. A nation rejoicing.

Rob Carson
Yeah, the comparison is obvious for a number of reasons, I believe. General Blaine Holt, by the way, host of the Dangerous Intellectuals podcast, which is spectacular. You need to check it out. Dangerous intellectuals.com you know, you as a warrior, you spent your entire life as a warrior. There is a battle of good and evil happening right now. And it's very clear to me when you look at the what's happened just in the last week, let alone, you know, going to the furthest that man has flown from the earth and the lead astronaut thanking God who we as a country got our. We say our rights come from him. There are a lot of things that say to me that, you know, this is a battle of good and evil. It's not just the United States versus Iran or whomever.
- [32:48]
General Blaine Holt
What do you think we are absolutely in a world war. And Iran Israel is but a battlefield in that global war that has been going on for decades. And the veneer of this war, the camouflage has, is falling away. And look no further than Europe. And what they've done since we have been engaged in operations with Iran over these days, this is the financialists of the thing we Call the City of London an incorporated bloc that is not beheld into the UK or the real London. It is globalists, and they want and always seek control. And they have always bought off and bet on both sides of every war. They control the Iranian side, they were controlling vast swaths of the Israeli defense complex. And here we are, we are taking off one of the heads of that snake. And you know that this is true because Lloyd's of London, no less, tried to block the straits and tried to financially shut it down. Not able to do it. President Trump, Trump thwarted them on this. And then. And then the UK, to this day, is denying us access rights to bases that we bought and paid for with American blood. And what do you think as you. As you watch Georgia Melanie go off to Saudi, hat in hand, to try to make a deal but can't use? There are bases in Italy. Macron is now saying NATO countries need to unite against the United States. This is what I mean by the camouflage is falling away. And here comes Mark Ruder tomorrow, I'm guessing, calling President Trump. Daddy's not going to work.
- [34:31]
Rob Carson
Yeah. Here is Donald Trump talking about all of the allies, our supposed allies, who forsook us in our time of need.
- [34:40]
Donald Trump
It's not just NATO. You know who else didn't help us? South Korea didn't help us. You know who else didn't help us? Australia didn't help us. You know who else didn't help us? Japan. We've got 50,000 soldiers in Japan to protect them from North Korea. We have 45,000 soldiers in South Korea to protect us from Kim Jong Un, who I get along with very well, as you know. Do you notice he said very nice things about me? He used to call Joe Biden a mentally retarded person.
- [35:12]
Rob Carson
Okay, there you go. But, yeah, we really got a snapshot of who, who will come to our side when we. We need them. And where do we go from here? Do we. Do we shut down those bas? Do we. Do we leave NATO? You know, there are still Democrats who say, oh, no, no, we need to recommit ourselves to NATO. We provide 65% of NATO's budget, and they've done D word for Richard for us when we ask them for help.
- [35:39]
General Blaine Holt
You know, the president is a guy who likes to make a deal, and he's going to see at the end of this Iran fracas, enormous leverage with the Europeans and enormous leverage with Japan and South Korea. So I think he's going to examine that first and see. Okay, well, yeah, we'll stay in NATO, but it's under new terms. Here's the new terms. And by the way, get ready because you're not going to like them. And Europe will get to decide. But right now, even the opposition party, the right wing party that's coming to power in Germany, is calling for all US Forces to be departing Germany. And to that, a guy who's lived In Germany nearly 10 years, I would tell you, deal. Fair. No problem. Next time we come back, it'll be for tourism. Unless you've kept all these invaders and then we can't come and spend money here. So you got to pick mosque to the United States.
- [36:27]
Rob Carson
Yeah, exactly. Now, with, with Iran and the IRGC effectively decapitated, you mentioned there are cells here in our country. And obviously Joe Biden allowed people to come across our southern border unvetted for terrorism. Among other things, IRCG members have been deported from the country. Just last year you said keep your head on a swivel. Do you suppose the decapitation of Iran, they won't have any, they won't have any financial means to carry out something. The only thing, I guess, that they will have is their fanaticism.
- [37:01]
General Blaine Holt
I wouldn't, I wouldn't presuppose that they don't have financial means.
- [37:04]
Rob Carson
Okay.
- [37:04]
General Blaine Holt
Because the machine has been able to leverage American banking and world global banking to be able to give them access to, and then they have access via cryptocurrency accounts, that kind of thing. So it's just going to be, do they see their role as, okay, I have to now convert to the Iranian people and I'm going to go quietly, or am I going to conduct jihad on my way to becoming a martyr? And so all I would say is just we have to remain vigilant and very, very watchful through these next 24 hours. But the next 24 hours will tell us a lot. And so, so again, don't, don't freak out. It's not, you know, this is not a time to panic, but it is a time to just go. Yeah, maybe I should have full tanks of gas today.
- [37:46]
Rob Carson

We had Mitch Vexler on Monday who told us all about 42 million American households at risk of losing Their property because of fraud in our property tax school appraisal system is a scam.
- [38:23]
Rob Carson
Of course, of course, of course. And I hope that you will consider being on standby for tomorrow, depending on what happens tonight. I God bless you, brother. I appreciate you so much. Let's take a break and come back. This is the Rob Carson Show. Pray for our military. Tonight's a big night, a really big night. I know. You already are. I don't need to remind you of that. Chuck Devore is a former army intelligence officer and he's talking about how the Democrat Party is digging a hole, not offering anything but opposition to Donald Trump. No pride in the country. No pride in the military. Already declaring that our military is lost. No positives about Artemis going on the other side of the moon because Donald Trump is the president. By the way, Donald Trump made this happen by giving NASA the funds that they need.
- [39:09]
Chuck Devore
Well, certainly so far it is. And certainly when combined with the Artemis 2 mission to the far side of the moon, what a time to be alive. What a time to be an American it is. And, Jesse, I am amazed every day when I see the Democrats, perhaps with the exception of Senator John Fetterman, just attacking the president on all these ridiculous grounds. Oh, war crimes, this. And we shouldn't do that.
- [39:31]
Rob Carson
Can you imagine the Democrats in 1969 when we had the lunar landing? And if Donald Trump were the president, then they wouldn't be celebrating that we landed on the moon. Yeah, I think they would have called it colonization or, you know, colonialism on the moon.
- [39:44]
Chuck Devore
They're going to suffer mightily at the midterms because, Jesse, if you look at it, we see, for example, rail traffic up significantly, freight traffic on our truck, trucks up significantly. So we know that the economy is getting ready to roar back. Another network published a poll today that showed the Republicans are now up 5 on the generic congressional poll.
- [40:04]
Rob Carson
Yeah, we're tired of it. We want to experience joy. All the Democrat Party offers is negativity and hate and anti Trump and we're done with it. We're done with your temper tantrums. We're done with your bullcrap. We're done with your destruction and your nonsense. We're done with it. Overwhelm them with joy and patriotism. We will do it. We are doing it.
