Today, Joe Kent, the director of national intelligence, resigned.

01:02 I'm about to read his full letter on air. It is so damning. It's everything we've said. Israel is in control of US foreign policy. They have gotten control of Trump's mind. They are lying to the president and steering us towards total disaster. And now they're gearing up with the ADL and others saying they don't want to just arrest Americans that disagree with us, but they treat us the same way they did Hamas with the quote, pagers. These are quotes by the head of the ADL. You have Trump saying that Mark Levin is the new leader of the Republican Party and that anyone that doesn't do what he says is a traitor. This is total and complete insanity. They will now say that Joe Kent, a Leventer highly decorated combat veteran, is a Nazi. It's not going to work, Trump. This is insane. Trump was doing so much good, we turned the country around, and now they're throwing it all away. Thank you so much for joining us on this live

01:55 Tuesday global transmission share the live feed now. I'll read the full statement coming up I end the baton right now to Harrison Smith This is historic share the live feeds now at RoeLock shows on X on rumble the Alex Jones show right now and tell folks what those local stations you're listening to As Joe Kent said it's time for Trump to turn back. We're doing this to get him to listen. This is tough medicine You're the Paul Revere's, share the live feeds now. Tell everybody you know, call the White House and tell Trump to turn back now and turn control back over to the United States of America, not to Israel and other foreign powers. Thank you. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this is the Alex Jones show on Infowars.com and Band.video. I'm your host Harrison Smith. I'll be sitting in for Alex, although he's been sitting in videos. We'll go to a full breakdown that he did of the Joe Kent letter in the beginning of the next segment. That of course has made a gigantic splash and it is different. It's very different than other objections to Donald Trump. In fact, there was a good tweet from Oren McIntyre about that, that all.

02:58 Actually, I have it right here. Attacks have begun, but the problem is that Kent isn't Nick Fuentes or Ian Carroll. If you want to claim that a highly respected combat veteran is playing ring and run with the death of his wife, fine. I'd be very sure of that position because if you're wrong, the cost is spiritual. And yeah, Joe Kent has been deployed 11 times as a combat veteran. His wife lost her life in the global war on terror. He was able to Actually make it to a very high position in the office of director of national intelligence under Tulsi Gabbard Did great work there and has now been forced to resign as he cannot in good conscience be a privy be a part of this war with Iran a very strident and probably extremely difficult decision to make but I think an appropriate one although a lot of people on our side are saying

03:56 That's not the right idea. It's sort of similar to Marjorie Taylor Greene. A lot of people going, hey, we know why you did what you did. We understand why you would want to throw in the towel. But it feels a little bit like abandoning the ship or maybe You could do some good in that position and by leaving the position, you sort of surrender any ability you have to affect the outcome. I disagree though, I think this is a statement, I think this is the most powerful thing Joe Kent could have done. I imagine. And in the letter it says, there's a lot of frustration, I'm sure, with not being able to affect the outcome, with trying as much as you can to prevent this catastrophic and increasingly detrimental war with Iran. So I think he did a very brave and impressive thing that's gonna make his life a hell of a lot harder.

04:56 He took that risk and made that sacrifice knowingly because the Iran war is the end of America as we know it. If it continues down the path that it goes and I'll explain all of that. Got a great article about the true folly and cost of the war in Iran already and it's only gonna get worse. When we come back, Alex Jones is gonna give a full breakdown of the Joe Kent letter, a historical moment. Stay with us. Joseph Kent, the director of national intelligence at the National Counterterrorism Center, resigned today. His letter is so powerful, I'm gonna read the whole thing here on air right now. And he's saying everything I've said, everything that Tucker Carlson has said. He was deployed 11 times to combat zones. He lost his wife to this system. And he's there looking at all the national intelligence that Tulsi Gabbard's seeing as well and knows it's a lie. They sent him a report one week before he struck 18, 19 days ago with Israel.

05:59 and said this isn't true. What they're saying about Iran isn't true. This isn't in our national interest. This is a lie. And now we have Trump saying if you don't support what I'm doing, an unending war, you're basically a Nazi. He said Mark Levin is my spirit animal. It's a litmus test. If you don't endorse this Israel firster, then you're not MAG. Well, guess what, Trump? You're not MAG anymore. You're Make Israel Great Again. It's totally disgusting. Now, I still support Trump overall controlling the border, trying to end the war with Russia, all other good things that are happening. That said, he's better than Democrats, but it doesn't matter. We are still going to put pressure on Trump to not continue to step into this mother of all miscalculations and disasters as they're basically admitting it is. We're not like the Democrats, just cultishly follow our supposed leader.

06:55 And regardless, we'll continue on with populism in the spirit of 1776 and America First. Populism is winning elections all over the world. Trump rode it on this wave. He didn't create this wave. I was promoting 1776 and anti-globalism 32 years ago, long before Trump figured it out in the last two years. And we've influenced Trump massively. That's why it's so painful to see this unfold. So to me, this isn't a popularity contest between myself and Mark Levin or Ben Shapiro, who were never Trumpers. Lindsey Graham was never Trump. It's about Trump selling us out to neocon and Israeli interests, and it's so dangerous. So here is the letter from the director of national intelligence, Joe Kent, National Counterterrorism Center today.

07:37 President Trump after much reflection, I've decided to resign from my position as director of the National Counterterrorism Center effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war on Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation. It is clear that we started the war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby, which they bragged about. That when you say that, the ADL calls for your arrest and says we should use the same tactics with exploding pagers on Americans that don't support us. We actually said that, I played the clip yesterday. I mean, this is freaking nuts. I'm never even trying to be an enemy with Israel. They're just making everybody be an enemy because it's a lot of control. I'm certainly not with the Muslims either, my God. Wow, I support the values and the foreign policies that you campaigned on in 2016, 2020, 24, which you enacted your first term until June of 2025. You understood that the war is the Middle East,

08:31 or a trap that robbed Americans of precious lives and of our patriots and depleted the wealth and prosperity of our nation. In your first administration, you understood better than any modern president how to decisively apply military power without getting us drawn to never-ending wars. That's why you brought in Kent, he's an expert on that. You demonstrated this by killing the head of ISIS. Early in his administration, high-ranking Israeli officials and influential members of the American media deployed a misinformation campaign in the last year that wholly undermined your American first platform and sowed pre-war and pro-war sentiments to encourage a war with Iran. This echo chamber was used to deceive you into believing that Iran posed an imminent threat to the United States and that this, and that you should strike.

09:22 that you should strike. There was a clear path to swift victory, but there wasn't. This was a lie and is the same tactic the Israelis used to draw us into the disasters of Iraq war that cost our national lives and thousands of our best men and women and cost trillions I would add. We cannot make this mistake again, which we're beginning to make in a big way. Iran's even worse. So depending on said, if you think Iraq and Afghanistan are bad, Iran's 10 times worse. As a veteran who deployed to combat 11 times, and as a gold star husband who lost my beloved wife, Shannon, in a war manufactured by Israel, I cannot support sending the next generation to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of American lives. I pray that you will reflect upon this and what we are doing in Iran and that you will

10:16 and who we are in this for. The time for bold action is down. You can reverse course and chart a new path for our nation. You can reverse course, chart a new path for our nation, or you can allow us to slip further toward decline and chaos. You hold the cards. It was an honor to serve in your administration and to serve our great nation, Joseph Kent, Director of National Counterterrorism Center. I mean, it's just, this is so incredibly historic. And it's true. And now he'll be called a Nazi. The talking points Trump has said come out of Mark Levin's mouth. He writes for Sean Hannity. He is the voice of God. And you are a Nazi. You're pro Hitler. You're the devil. Tucker Carlson's been referred for criminal investigation for daring to report on Iran.

11:04 I had the whole deep state and CIA and FBI sue me, that's what he classified. And then when Ed Martin investigated it, the Democrat party lawyer, Todd Blanch, killed it. They just killed the autopin investigation. They're killing everything. The deep state is in control. Trump has made a radical turn towards the globalists and towards Israel firsters. And it's so sad and it's so dangerous and it's so sick. So I kind of babbled through this, because I'm reading my little tiny iPad over here, the text. Be sure to read it for yourself. We'll post it below. Share this incredible information. And we're going to try to get Joe Kent on the show. But regardless, he's doing this to try to get Trump to change course. He can't sit idly by while America goes into disaster with the trade of Hormuz closed, with all the war games showing this goes from bad to worse, creates inflation, kills our recovery, and does so much more.

11:54 So I don't side with the Mullahs, but I don't side with going and starting a fight with them for Israel and Israel bragging about how they've done this. So we salute Joseph Kent. We salute all the other great patriots who are standing up and telling the truth. And to hear the Israel lobby talking about putting people in prison or killing American patriots here in America, this is frightening. We're in maximum danger of the Israel lobby staging major false flag attacks like they were heavily involved in 9-11. So we're in a maximum point of danger right now. Somebody better keep their head on a swivel. I can't wait to hear what General Flynn, who's a big fan of Joe Kent, has to say about this because I've talked privately to Flynn. He's been pretty much at this point for a while, but he's been trying to get Trump back on course and gently nudging him. But I don't think that's going to happen unless we really speak out.

12:34 God bless you all. I want to thank you all for tuning in to this live broadcast today. We're on 11 a.m. 3 p.m. Central and then full wars.com for slash show and of course, we're all Jones on X and of course the auction show on rumble share those feeds here the Paul Revere's so very important time for America where the left and right and populist come together and say no to these forever wars. Thank you so much. All right folks that was Alex Jones talking about Kent Joe Kent and the letter that he just sent. resigning from his position in the Office of National Intelligence over the war in Iran, saying that not only was this war not justified, he also mentioned that his wife had died in wars started for Israel. Because this is nothing new, Iran is just the latest iteration of a series of catastrophic and just absolutely rather ill-advised adventures for America in the Mideast.

13:32 over the last several decades, just sort of the capstone, the cherry on top of the sundae we've been forced fed for my entire life. It's not the only thing going badly for the Trump administration today. It seems like everything is kind of falling apart when it comes to Iran. At the same time, We're having military success in Iran if that's what you can call it. If your idea of success is taking a functional country and turning it into rubble and chaos and murderous filth, then we're winning. Then we're succeeding. We're succeeding wildly actually. And this is one of those things. People online will respond and say, but we're destroying Iran. And it's like, okay.

14:18 For what? What are we destroying? We so we took a formerly functional government and country that didn't really like us but also wasn't going out of its way to antagonize us and we're now going to turn it into just a chaos just a absolute quagmire on purpose and Why but why are we doing that into what end now? It is st. Patrick's Day. Happy st. Patrick's Day everybody. We're gonna be talking about About Iran and the war there as what the Telegraph is calling it the mother of all miscalculations Trump's mother of all miscalculations as I've been saying since the war started I think this may go down in history as Literally the worst mistake anybody has ever made the worst decision ever made by any single individual I cannot think of a worse one, especially when you see everything else happening now Joe Kent is just the latest

15:15 In a gigantic list of really good people that Trump brought in with him that have been forced out one way or another. And it seems like really systematically this is happening. It's kind of increasing recently. But Greg Bovino is retiring now. He was a great champion for mass deportations that we're not getting anymore. Obviously, a lot of the people working at the DOJ actually trying to get justice for the deep state crimes that we've been subjected to over the last several years. They've all been forced out. Ed Martin and others. Joe Kent is living now. I mean, Tulsi Gabbard and RFK Jr. Are hanging on by their fingernails and just trying to achieve whatever they possibly can despite all of the roadblocks set setbacks and manipulation behind the scenes. I remember that again, this is also nothing new.

16:06 During the Operation Midnight Hammer in June of 2025, Donald Trump was asked by a reporter, he said to him, your director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, says Iran is not close to having a nuclear weapon. And Donald Trump responded to that person saying, I have other intelligence that's wrong. Okay, so Tulsi Gabbard is the head of the ODNI, which is the office that sits on top of all of our national intelligence, right? It is the managing structure on top of the CIA and the NSA and all of it. So she has all of the intelligence that America creates. All of the intelligence, all the information gathered by our intelligence agents is funneled up to her. She said Iran didn't have a weapon. So where was Trump getting his information?

16:54 It does take a genius to figure it out. We know it wasn't from American intelligence. Gee, I wonder what intelligence operation was feeding Trump information that we have to go to war with Iran. I wonder who it could possibly be. Maybe we'll take calls. You can give me some suggestions cuz I'm lost here. I couldn't imagine where he could possibly be getting this information. Except it's exactly the same location where the weapons of mass destruction were sourced from in the Iraq war the first time. Because again, this is a cycle that we're going to break one way or another. And Trump is live with the president of Ireland because of St. Patrick's Day. I wanna go to that, this was just about five minutes ago when he started taking questions. And of course, the questions are about Iran. So I haven't seen this yet, but this is Donald Trump in the Oval Office live just minutes ago. Let's watch.

17:46 Well, we don't need too much help and we don't need any help, actually. In fact, we just put out a notice I was watching over the last couple of weeks and all of our NATO allies were very much in favor of what we did. They thought it was very important. We were just discussing it, actually, very important that we take out the nuclear threat from Iran and we've done that very strongly, very powerfully. We've wiped out their navy, wiped out their military in every aspect.

18:25 Their air force is now decimated. They have no air force, no Navy. They have no radar. Their radar is entirely gone. Their anti aircraft machinery is gone. Everything is gone. Their leaders are gone. I guess one of the top person was they say a lot of people say their actual top was killed yesterday along with somebody else. who was responsible for the killing, the man that was responsible for the killing of 32,000 people over the last two weeks. He was in charge of the killing of protesters. It's an evil group. I mean, they've killed much more than 32,000 people. And the man who was responsible for that was also killed yesterday. Look, they should have just gone with weapons of mass destruction. This whole, you know,

19:14 a selection of different excuses, it's not working out. We can pause it, we'll go back to this, but he's not telling the truth and that's according to himself and everybody around him when it comes to the failure of Europe and the NATO allies to come help us. He's like, we don't even need their help. Okay, well you were begging for their help, so that's a little inconsistent if you ask me. No, we're being humiliated and Trump didn't think we needed their help, but now we do. But we're not getting it because the whole thing was a bad idea in the first place. Again, I don't think I'm out of line when I say it was literally the worst decision ever made. Yeah, this is his post from Truth Social.

19:56 The United States has been informed by most of our NATO quote allies that they don't want to get involved with our military operation against the terrorist regime of Iran in the Middle East. This despite the fact that almost every country strongly agreed with what we were doing and that Iran cannot in any way, shape or form be allowed to have a nuclear weapon. I'm not surprised by their actions, however, because I've always considered NATO where we spend hundreds of billions of per year. Oh my God. His posts are getting longer and. I don't feel like reading it. No, basically he's just flailing. He's mad, he's angry, he's demanding that all of these allies come help us with this ridiculous suicidal retardation and they're saying no. We no longer quote need or desire the NATO's country's assistance. We never did. Likewise, Japan, Australia, or South Korea. In fact, speaking as president of the United States of America, by far the most powerful country in anywhere in the world. We do not need the help of anyone. Thank you for attention in this matter, President Donald J. Trump. Okay, great. Well done.

20:54 Meanwhile, Lindsey Graham writes this on X, just spoke to POTUS about our European allies unwillingness to provide assets to keep the Strait of Hormuz functioning, which benefits Europe far more than America. I have never heard him so angry in my life. I share that anger given what's at stake. So according to Lindsey Graham, he's never seen Trump more angry than he is right now at NATO's failure to provide assistance for the ongoing, I guess, Genocide? I don't know. I mean, if our goal is just to literally destroy their ability to exist, is that not definitionally exactly what the UN Convention on Genocide says? I don't know. I haven't actually thought about that till just now, but I was going to call it a war. It's not really a war so much. I mean, we are deliberately degrading the civilian infrastructure of Iran. So I don't know. Maybe there's a different word for it.

21:49 Lindsey Graham continues, the arrogance of our allies to suggest that Iran with a nuclear weapon is of little concern and that military action to stop the Ayatollah from acquiring a nuclear bomb is our problem not theirs is beyond offensive. The European approach to containing the Ayatollah's nuclear ambitions have proven a miserable failure. The repercussions of providing little assistance to the Strait of Hormuz functioning are going to be wide and deep for Europe and America. I consider him, well, then you shouldn't have started a war then, idiot. Like this is the thing, y'all. It's so crazy. It's so crazy how everything is going. And I put it out on X today. I'm not sure if this is the best analogy or metaphor.

22:29 But it does feel like, especially on the right wing and in the Republican Party, it's like we're the battered wife. It's like we're the wife who every night, the husband goes out and cheats on us and then comes back and beats us black and blue. And then when we complain about that, everybody around goes, but divorce is so painful for the children. Are you really, you're gonna do that to the children? You're gonna do that to them? And it's like, it's not our fault that we've been betrayed. It's not our fault that we keep being abused, that we keep being taken advantage of. It's not our fault that our appropriate reaction is not in line with your designs. It's your fault for doing this.

23:15 I was arguing with 99mm on X, cuz what he was expressing is very much the establishment Republican talking point right now, as you're seeing on mainstream media and everywhere else, which is like, you're just gonna let the Democrats win? They're gonna flood the country with migrants. And it's like, well, then I guess Trump shouldn't have gone to war with Iran then, huh? I guess that was the mistake that was made. I guess that's the person that you should be mad at. That's the action that has ruined everything, not our reaction to it. Other people are saying Israeli derangement syndrome. It's not deranged to be aware of and opposed to the actions of a genocidal, psychopathic little murderous state in the Middle East that our country is seemingly enslaved by, okay?

24:03 I'm not the deranged one. The deranged ones are the people who seem reasonable, they seem patriotic, they seem like good Christian people, people like Lindsey Graham. All of a sudden Israel comes up and they do, they become deranged. I don't know what it is about Israel. I'm not like emotionally compelled by Israel one way or the other. I just don't like evil people doing evil things. I especially don't like them doing it under my flag. So I'm gonna oppose that because I have an obligation to as an American in a Republican system in which I am at the end of the day, part of the people that are responsible for the actions of our government. So I'm going to oppose it and my opposition is going to be as loud and vociferous

24:49 as the evil is, okay? So that's just how it is. But it's not emotional for me because I don't really actually give a damn about Israel or the Middle East at all, only when America gets involved. But these people, the topic of Israel comes up. And they go from, look, we all got to work together and just make things. We're all Americans at the end of the day to nobody's innocent in Palestine. Starve the children, bomb them to death. Show me videos of it. I love it. Send me more. Right? That's deranged. You people are deranged, okay? And us sane, normal, loving, actually human people are going to oppose you at every pass and we're gonna win at the end of the day. And Joe Kent is one of them. So God bless Joe Kent for standing up against this suicidal derangement syndrome that Israel inspires in our politicians. And I wish there was more

25:45 Heartfelt opposition in the ranks of our government. We wouldn't be in this mess in the first place So people are getting mad at the reaction. You should be mad at the thing that happened that caused the reaction Okay, you're mad that people don't like Israel. You think it's anti-semitic. Maybe Israel should stop the saturation bombing campaign against the enslaved populace in Gaza maybe as we speak they shouldn't be ethnically cleansing 110th of the land of Lebanon Which no matter what you feel about Iran, no matter what you feel about Gaza and Hamas, Lebanon is not any of those. And the excuses made to attack those places don't actually apply to Lebanon. So they're insane and we're going to stop them one way or the other. And we would love all the help we can get in setting things right and freeing America from the cancerous, poisonous domination of Zionist

26:39 Yeah, all are welcome, but all who would rather make excuses or try to Work with these people you're the enemy so that's just how it is. Just how it is now It's gonna be Trump has now responded to the National Counterterrorism Center director Joe Kent resigning over the war in Iran quote I always thought he was a nice guy, but I thought he was very weak on security I didn't know him well, but he seemed like a pretty nice guy, but when I read his statement I realized it's a good thing He's out because he said Iran was not a threat. Oh Oh, and as we know, guys, Iran has killed a thousand Americans. Which thousand Americans? We don't know. When did it happen? Yeah, who can say? But we've been at war with them for 47 years. They've been chanting death to America.

27:24 Not that that really matters and not that we don't have Americans here who chant death to America, but it doesn't matter because They killed 30,000 protesters I mean we never saw evidence of it and there was never any actual verified claim from anybody that that actually happened But these are the lies that we keep repeating Because we have no other reason to do what we did. Of course. It's an imminent threat. It's been imminent for 47 years But actually we have insider information from the UK that it was never a threat. I'll tell you that on the other side. Now new documents about ESP control, how we're really electrochemical systems, liquid crystals, and the pineal gland, and how most people have microscopic to actual large worm infestations, not just from cats, you name it, like Kennedy has one in his brain, and they didn't tell the public most cancer, breast cancer, brain cancer is worms.

30:01 is causing an absolute meltdown on X from everybody who, frankly, I think are infuriated that somebody like Joe Kent was allowed past their filtering system. Somebody with this type of morality was never supposed to be allowed in the halls of power. This is a terrifying breach of their security systems. This type of attitude where you stand up for what's right, where you refuse to go along with a War with no particular aims whose entire purpose seems both just murderous Activity in Iran while simultaneously destroying America they they thought they'd weeded everybody like that out and trust me I know some of them

30:48 There's a very sophisticated multi-layered filtering system before anybody gets anywhere close to power in the federal government that you have to get approved by a very sophisticated layered system of Israelis before you ever get into any halls of power. I'm not even kidding, we are literally taken over and infiltrated. But here's the thing, it's been this way for a long time. We have been in this situation for the last 40 years at least. I mean, hell, you don't get into the first Iraq war without this system already being in place. So the fact that it is now sort of being forced out into the open, being exposed in a way that it never had, this is a victory in and of itself. I know it doesn't feel like that, but it really is. The Epstein files, the fact that they got released is an absolute victory in and of itself.

31:45 Our side, the freedom loving, America first, patriotic side is actually racking up wins right now, which is why you're seeing everybody else go crazy, which is why you're seeing the power structure flip out and desperately try every different tactic at once to try to retain power. It's an act of desperation. It's an act of flailing incompetence, and it's not going to work because we are aware of what's going on. Our ranks are growing daily. The outrage that the bad guys are inspiring is motivating people to take action. We actually have the initiative right now and it's an amazing thing. And this has always been the beauty of InfoWars. And this is always why Alex Jones and InfoWars have attracted people like myself, who, like I want to know what's going on. I got to know what the truth is. A lot of people are actually happy to be ignorant. I'm sure you realize this if you've ever tried to talk to people about what's really going on in the world, they get scared.

32:46 They get very scared about learning the truth. They get very scared that things might not actually be a Disney movie behind the scenes. And they just don't wanna talk about it. Their brain shuts off, they go into a fight or flight response mode, and they can't handle it. I've never been that type of person. Anybody listening to my voice, you're not that type of person. You want to know the truth, even if it's unpleasant, even if it's brutal and upsetting and reveals your entire life to be a lie. You'd rather know the truth and continue living the lie. And InfoWars has always been here to both tell you the reality about what's going on, tell you the truth, pull back the curtain and show you the disgusting way the sausage is made, but then tell you how you fix it. But then remind you that we have the tools that we need, and all we need is the will and the motivation to exert it.

33:37 And that's always been the way Alex has pushed it. That's why our motto has always been, you are the resistance. You are the InfoWar. The opposite of trust the plan, Patriots in control, right? The whole point of the QAnon, PsyOp, and a lot of what's going on now is just relax, just lay back, don't do anything. Literally the opposite of the message you need to hear. And the message InfoWars has been spreading. So... You know, InfoWars, again, it's why they hate us. It's why we've been the number one target. It's not just that we have the information. Lots of people have the information. The information wasn't even secret necessarily. It was in their own white papers. They didn't want anybody else spreading it to the masses, but it wasn't just about spreading the information. It was about telling you that this information is just the launching pad. That's the first part. That's the thing to wake you up, right? Now it's time to stand up. Now it's time to move. Now it's time to

34:29 put this information into action and reclaim our government, reclaim our politics and our politicians from the lies that enslave them. So I'm so happy that you find folks out there in the audience recognize this and respond to this and feel like we do that not only are things not great, but that they could be. Things are not going the direction that they should be going, but that's a matter of who's behind the wheel and which direction they're turning it. And all we need to do is claim that power for ourselves. So I understand why some people are upset that Joe Kent has left his position. But I think it's a powerful move of protest that is having a very powerful effect on the way this whole thing's being interpreted. Again,

38:52 He's supposed to be relaxing, but then again, we're in the middle of the most exciting time in all of human history. So how could you stay away? And that really is something to know as well. I don't know, I'm a big fan of Roman history and I always read that back then for entertainment, they would just go down to the forum and you'd get to watch freaking Caesar arguing with Cicero. And it's like, my God, if only we could, can you imagine how lucky those people were to get to witness history being made right then? That's what X is, X is the forum. And we're all the senators arguing about what the fate of the Republic will be and we are

39:31 charting the course of all of human history from here on out. So it's very exciting stuff going on right now, and I'm just honored to be a part of it. Buckley Carlson, this is Tucker Carlson's brother, has this to say about. Joe Kent quitting. He says, the jig is up. Slander, censorship, persecution, prosecution, physical attacks, and even more murder all will increase exponentially as Israel and its sharp-clawed agents here in America recognize their more than half a century stranglehold is coming to a blessed end. Beware, be careful. And this is in response to Max Blumenthal. So again, we are on the march. And I was having a conversation with somebody about this.

40:14 Cuz I'm not blackfilled. As bad as things are going, as much as we have been betrayed by Trump, look at the response. Look at how powerful it's been. This might be that that shake up event that we really need to actually fully once and for all break the two party system. And create some sort of political party that can represent America and America alone and not be controlled in this blue versus green, red versus blue kind of play acting that gets done as James Fishback puts it, the two wings of the same bird.

40:53 Maybe the Iran war is the shotgun that knocks it out of the sky Metaphorically and police peacefully and politically and all that great stuff, you know If you don't like me using strong words, like you don't understand what's going on here. We're talking about life and death. We're talking about war and murder and chaos and genocide. Like these things are real. This is intense. This is not the time to politely disagree. I understand that we're, you know, but we a little disagree a little bit. It's like, I don't know. One side has made the worst decision anybody's ever made and got us into World War III deliberately for no particular reason.

41:32 I think it's okay to be a little bit intense about this. I think it's actually necessary. I think actually It's a strategy to lull us into complacency by just like, well, just calm down. Let's just approach this calmly. It's like the guy with the knife at your neck going, well, let's just relax a little. There's no need to freak out. It's like, no, you have a knife to our neck. It's okay. It's okay to freak out. But of course, if you freak out somebody with a knife to your neck, you might die. So we have to freak out in a controlled fashion, if you understand what I'm saying. But I'm not blackmailed in the slightest. I And being more intense, I'm using more, you know, deliberately provocative language because we have them on the run. Now is the time to double down.

42:16 Now is not the time to, like the last thing I want to do is to put across the idea that like, oh, it's all hope is lost and we've been betrayed and they've won and you know, we can't do anything about it. That's not it at all. Now in this, on the battlefield of the information war, their line is wavering. Now we send in the cavalry charge. That's how this works. They're freaking out, they're scrambling, they're trying to figure out how to pull victory out of the jaws of defeat. in a total quagmire. They're trying to figure out how to end it quickly while also trying to figure out how to make up for all of what we've lost so far. They're scrambling. They're disorganized.

42:54 They're routing we run them down. That's the play now. That's what we have to do now That's where we have to push now there has never been a greater opportunity for both exposure and removal of the poisonous foreign influences that have strangled our country this is an Opportunity not a crisis and it sucks that it got us to this point And I would have loved to be sitting here today, reminiscing on the last year of victory. I'd love to be sitting here going another 100,000 deportations a day, look at that. And James Comey has another broadcast from prison where he's been sent for the crimes he committed, but that didn't happen, did it? None of that happened. And so here we are a year later at War with Iran, no deep state convictions, very few deportations. I'm not downplaying the good things that Trump has done.

43:44 But if we don't get a handle on this thing now, it's only going to get worse. Alex Jones joins us from the road. Are we ready to go to Alex live now? Alex, welcome to the show, sir. How are you? Harrison, you're absolutely right. We should all be white pill because the global awakening is here, but we should be realist about their political movements. We put in to do our bidding are not always going to fall all the way through. So I've got some very historic parallels. This is so important. I'm about to say, so people understand how the head of the counterterrorism national center, Roderick Gabbard, how big what he did was

44:21 to strongly get Trump back on course to basically say there's been an Israeli coup over foreign policy. Now they're trying to get domestic control of the Republican Party. And since the American people, this is all out in the open. So Imagine how big this is compared to Walter Cronkite coming out 60 years ago and saying basically we've lost the war. The Pentagon knows internally they're covering up. And then Daniel Ellsberg who was just a high level analyst coming out and saying he'd seen all the real intelligence that it was just a big way to make money in a war game and we couldn't win it without nuking North Vietnam.

44:57 Imagine how big that was ending the Vietnam War. And then remember Dr. David Kelly, who right before the Iraq war in 2003, was their head analyst. And he was getting ready to go public and already leaked that it was all a fraud and a lie. And so they murdered him. That's how important this is. And Joe Kent in stature is even more high profile and a bigger deal than Dr. David Kelly. So first I'm gonna go to a clip of Walter Cronkite. from 59 years ago, basically right now or almost 60. Then we'll go back again to Daniel Ellsberg, so that's on record the Pentagon Papers.

45:38 And then I want to put up there the link I put for Dr. David Kelly, just search his name and it all comes up about him, the weapons inspector and England's main advisor on that to understand how historic and what a big deal this all is. If you just type in Walter Cronkite says the Vietnam War is lost, you can see his full 10 minute broadcast on that and hear everything he said, but I'm just gonna play a little bit of What Walter Cronkite had to say almost 60 years ago Then I'm gonna come back with some more statements on this on the other side But here's Walter Cronkite for it seems now more certain than ever that the bloody experience of Vietnam is to end in a stalemate But it is increasingly clear to this report

46:28 that the only rational way out then will be to negotiate, not as victors, but as an honorable people who lived up to their pledge to defend democracy and did the best they could. And then again, Cronkite goes on to basically break down the Pentagon and lied to everyone. And we post this to X later, I'm gonna ask Wilson to post the full or at least the first five minutes. Walter Cronkite's newscast in there, so people can get the full context of that. Then Daniel Ellsberg comes out and confirms he'd already been leaking information. Official Pentagon reports this is going on. Now instead of us having to be in Vietnam for many, many years before this really came out, the Office of National Intelligence, 16 other agencies, including the one that Kent headed up, 11 time combat veteran, told Trump, or I almost said Bush,

47:25 George W. 2.0 that all this is lies, this is really propaganda and they'll block the street or most and the whole thing will go from bad to worse. So don't do it. And so we saw that unfold and they still did it. And now how many days are we into this now, Harrison? Well, it's we're coming up on three weeks. We're in the third week. Yeah. So, so I mean, it started March, March 1st. So what is today? Today's the 17th. That's 17 days into this. Now they're saying at least September, first it was going to be four days long. It's about regime change. And just because we hate the Mullahs, just because we hate the Islamists doesn't mean we walk right into a neocon trap. Do we have more Muslims here or less since 2001? We have 15 times in the West on average. Okay, so this is the globalist plan. This is how they operate. Israel, you made the 20 minute documentary that's got 20 million views.

48:29 You should re-air that in the third hour today or at least post it and post the end of this. In fact, when we post this text, also just post the documentary at the end, where it's hundreds of times Israel saying, we're gonna suck the American empire dry, we'll be the new center of the world with Israel as a superpower and a greater Israel and all this delusional stuff. And then Greenblatt says, anybody saying that Israel's behind this to be censored or arrested. And then now we played the clip yesterday where he says very clearly, The same thing we use with pagers and violence, we need to do that to people domestically in the United States. I mean, this is megalomania. Everybody knows I've never been just an anti-Israel guy. They do a lot of predatory stuff like a lot of other big powerful groups, the Chinese, you name it. I just oppose it. But now Israel sees the Democrats falling apart, and they're really trying to enter the power vacuum. So again, Daniel Ellsberg will put that on screen, the Pentagon papers.

49:18 High level analyst, that was the end of it when that finally came out. They tried to put him in prison. Then Dr. David Kelly, they weren't about to let that happen. So they killed him. I remember I've interviewed Ellsberg before, by the way. He's dead now. And then you come on to the modern version of that. And that is Joe Kent. But at an even higher level stature and background, his wife dying, a gold star family, they're gonna have real trouble, like you said, immunizing him. So here's what I'm telling everybody. We continue to expose the Democrats, open borders, pedophilia, nuclear war with Russia. They're even worse. But the Democrats became so anti-Israel because that's what they promoted at the universities, that a lot of leftist Jews came over and put their money in Trump. But they're Israel first. And so I don't wanna blow up Israel, I wanna blow up the Muslims, I wanna run our own country. We have to point out what's happened. Trump's gone full neocon.

50:11 Mark Levin is now the litmus test. He says you must follow his worldview or you're not MAGA. That's totally insane. This will make us lose the midterms. It's out of control. But as Kent said, we got to put a lot of pressure on Trump. Turn back now before it's too late. This is a really humanitarian thing he's done. And I bet money Gabbard's getting ready to go out. General Flynn's no fan of the Mulos, but he is all about us running our own sovereignty. If America really decided to go take out the Mulos, that's one thing. But don't sleepwalk us into this situation. But I'm going to say this. Everybody should be white billed, it's been a wait for a long time. There's a red pilling worldwide, not just here, it's at record levels. And so these globalists can play their old games and be above the law, but the court of public opinion, they're being destroyed. Their systems are falling apart and half the fraud, waste and abuse over a trillion bucks has been cut. A lot of good still being done by Trump.

51:00 We just have to look at it, put major pressure on Trump where he's bad, support the good appointments where it's good, and build up towards the midterms to get more patriots into government, more people like Ed Martin into the Justice Department in the future. Ed Martin doing a great job, everything he did got killed, bye. Todd Blanch. So the first six months was great. They kicked out Elon. That was the beginning of the end, beginning of the collapse of this thing. But regardless, folks, the fight goes on. The Democrats trying to work to get us off the air right now. Todd Blanch just killed the investigation into what was happening. So that's the reality right now. And InfoWars is set to be shut down.

51:42 We're fighting to stop it, but it looks like we can't. April 15th or so, they're literally turning off the internet, turning off everything. The US receiver failed in federal court with all the fake auctions and crap, and now it's the state receiver of the same judge that ran the show trial. And so just spread the word about Relox Jones on X. The Alex Jones Show on Rumble, we'll be announcing new news sites and things and all of that. Right when all this happens and we're not gonna miss a lick, same satellites, same radio stations, everything and the fight continues. But we need your financial support at thealexjonesstore.com. Get some Patriot apparel, get the ultra-methylene blue, get the incredible True pure iodine, T3, even better than the next two before it sells out. TheAlexJonesStore.com. We will continue to fight and promote the republic, promote good leaders and corporations in media and academia and government, and not just here but around the world. So TheAlexJonesStore.com. I salute all of you watching and listening right now. Support those local radio stations, spread the word about those. If you're listening on one of those, whatever you do, share the feeds from

52:41 from Real Hawk Shows on X. For now on that, go to Rumble, the Hawk Show show. And for now, InfoWars.com forward slash show. Hit your email list, your text message list. Everybody you know, the truth's being told. This is a big deal we got to get behind. Joe Kent, they're going to have big problems demonizing him and saying anybody that isn't for this war is a Nazi, as they're literally saying we should blow up Americans with pagers. I mean, Israel has gone crazy. And we just need to pray for peace and pray for an awakening in Israel. A lot of folks in Israel don't like what's happening as well. Michael Saban was on three months ago and said, a lot of top Israeli generals he talks about says this is all insane. So our enemy is not Chinese people, it's the communist Chinese.

53:17 My enemy is not the Jewish people, it is the crazies that are running it who know the more they attack us, the more Israel gets attacked, the more power the controllers get. This is a Galilean dialectic, problem and action solution. But regardless, we'll continue to tell the truth, continue to stand for justice. We can't do it without you. Wherever the truth is, we'll report it as long as you'll back us at theelectionsstore.com. Pray for the broadcast. and byproducts again at thealexjonestore.com and spread the word. God bless you all. Great job, Harrison Smith. I'm going to hand the baton back to you and the incredible raft of guest hosts coming up. I'll be following reports throughout the week. God bless you. Thank you, Alex. Yes, Robert Barnes will be taking over in the next hour. Mike Adams after him. Elijah Schaefer in the fourth hour. Thealexjonestore.com to support us. And look,

53:58 Are the Jewish people in America in a good situation now because of Israel? The whole time that we've been arguing against the wars, it's because it's making everything worse for everybody. It's making things worse for the Israelis, making things worse for the Jews. We want everybody to come together and fight against tyranny, but they won't listen to us. My people perish for lack of knowledge. That's what the Bible tells us. Another way to say it is those that don't know history are doomed to repeat it. God has given us compounds in nature that aren't just important, they're vital, they're essential. If you don't have oxygen for four minutes, you die. You don't have water for four or five days, you die. You don't have food for a month, you die. And why is that? Because there's nutrients in the food you need that are essential. Well, iodine is one of the essential nutrients. We have massive shortages of it in our depleted soils. Now I have a new CIA declassified document I'm going to hit here in just a moment. But first, I want to show you a few headlines. UN study, 2 billion people suffer from vitamin mineral deficiencies, particularly iodine, the number one cause

54:57 of cognitive disabilities in the world today. Here's another one. Salt smarts how iodine has increased America's IQs. Starting in the 20s, we had super low IQs like iodine. They put it in 50-20 point increase. My point is this is a known fact. It just got declassified two weeks ago, CIA Operation Artichoke in the 50s. They said we've been tasked by the big tax-free foundations, the Rockefellers and Carnegie's, to dumb down the American people. We're going to put poisons in the food, the water, and the vaccines to dumb them down to make them more manageable. Absolutely incredible. So right here, ladies and gentlemen, I have taken a few drops of our new T3, even better than X2, pure atomic ionine, and mixed it with our medical grade methylene blue. Both of these

55:46 supercharge your cells, clean out your body and counter the effects of the things now being admitted by the CIA. That fluoride calcifies the pineal gland and jackets your cells where they cannot transmit. I've been telling you this for decades, they have major studies, but now here it is. CIA declassified research, the human body is a liquid crystal that is literally transmitting and receiving a transceiver and what does fluoride do? It literally blocks that. What goes in and strips that out? Iodine and methylene blue, they act in different ways. So this is information the bad guys not want you to know.

56:25 Also in the CIA document, they admit that most cancer is microscopic worms. There's hundreds of species that get in and colonize your body, amoebas, and eat your breast, your liver, your brain, you name it. And then they call it a tumor in cancer, but they're just areas of your body that have been chewed out. Now you've seen this with countless doctors and scientists on talking about this. Not all cancer is this. But the majority of it from studies is, and they are again telling you that you just got to die. And if you've got an infection of parasites in your brain or whatever, if they hit it with radiation, it kills the parasites. But the radiation also kills your regular cells. Turns out the majority of people in the world have one form or another of parasite. Here's the Daily Mail. CIA faces furious backlash under a hidden document.

57:10 The potential cure for cancer is declassified after 60 years. We've talked about this for many, many years. We are totally vindicated again. And right now we finally have the original pure iodine back but even stronger, now known as T3. The original X2 but even better at thealexjonestore.com. Again, ladies and gentlemen, T3 and what it does for your body is amazing. So for a limited time you can get T3, our new iodine, the very best ever at thealexjonestore.com. If you're a VIP member, for 50% off, regular customers 25% off at thealexshowscore.com. It funds the operation. Total win-win. Now, methylene blue, you fill in 30 minutes on average.

58:36 On X wrote, senior admin official says Joe Kent was quote a known leaker and was cut out of POTUS intelligence briefings months ago. He has not been part of any Iran planning discussions or briefings at all. Officials say the White House told DNI Gabbard Kent should be fired for suspected leaks, but she never did. Mark Levin responds to this. So this SOB who leaked my meeting last year with POTUS took a Tarleton and Gabbard didn't fire him. God, this guy told on me to the American people that I was trying to get a war going with Iran. How dare he? I'm in charge. I'm the king. I get to start wars. You're not allowed to tell anybody. Ridiculous. He goes on to say the DOJ should open a criminal investigation to determine if Kent leaked any classified information.

59:24 I'm sure yeah, Tucker Carlson Joe Kent. Yeah, these guys are total criminals, right? These guys are un-American the guy whose wife died in service of America the guy who did 11 tours of service In America, Tucker Carlson, the icon of conservative Americanism for decades. These are the bad guys, huh? And that's what you want us to believe. These are the people that need to be thrown into prison forever. Why? Because they oppose your genocidal insanity. Because they're actually trying to stand up against the hostile takeover by a foreign power of our federal government as they turn us towards war, chaos and misery, instead of focusing on the very basic and obvious things we should be doing for our country.

1:00:05 Like, I don't know, you know, I think now might be a good time to reference, now that I think about it, a couple of Jeffersonian quotes. A couple of quotes from Thomas Jefferson I think very applicable right now. I know everybody's jumping to the one that I also have in mind, that the tree of liberty has to be watered from time to time. That's not actually what I was talking about. It's that when a law is unjust, you are obligated to break it. Right? Something like that. I'm paraphrasing. But basically, our morality, our ethics are... Humanity is not determined by some law that some subversive interloper forced down the throat of our government. Just because some moneyed interests have taken control of the levers of power doesn't mean that they actually now dictate right and wrong. They're manipulating right and wrong to get what they want. And so they're trying to send good people to prison while the worst people in the world continue to make billions. This is wrong on a metaphysical level beyond

1:01:02 human law and its right to oppose it, and its right to oppose it up to and beyond sacrificing yourself or others for this truth. The DOJ should open a criminal investigation, he says, to determine if Kent leaked any classified information. I think we need to make Zionism illegal. I think we need to criminalize support of Israel in this country in the same way that we criminalize support of terrorist organizations. I think we need to systematically eradicate the Zionist influence in this country by shutting down all of their organizations, criminalizing their support, confiscating their money, and ripping them out of our government systems. I think that's absolutely not even up for debate. It's mandatory at this point. We have

1:01:50 this foreign country who is destroying our country, we need to do something about that. And I say this because I'm concerned, not fully, but certainly it contributes to it, to the deliberate and purposefully created anti-Semitism in this country that is going to end in catastrophe one way or the other. To protect American Jews, I think we need to very harshly and severely separate out the Zionist Israeli foreign influence from our country. so that we can delineate between true American patriots of any color, race, religion or ethnicity and the foreigners that simply want to use our country, our power, our prosperity to their own despicable ends. Okay?

1:02:41 That's my stance. That's where I'm at. And I think we need to be pushing that with everything we've got. Oh, now he's a leaker all of a sudden. Oh, as soon as he goes against you, all of a sudden you've had, you've had this secret thing about him that you haven't acted on yet. He was the leaker, but you didn't fire him and you didn't do anything about it. But now you're talking about it. Very suspicious. I don't believe it. it. very forcefully and then like deliberately push for America to go to war with Iran. The foreign interloper subversive elements are very mad that a patriotic American

1:03:38 was standing up to them. And by the way, we've been reporting on this the entire time Trump has been in his second administration, because the whole time there's been an obvious conflict behind the scenes. There's been an obvious tug of war and push and pull from the people in the Trump administration, the the pro-Israel, pro-Warthoran faction and the pro-America, anti-Warthoran faction. This has been a combat taking place behind the scenes. And I've always explained it like we're looking at the surface of the ocean or the lake and you can see big bubbles come up every once in a while. And we go, there's something going on down there. There's a squid and a whale fighting each other. We can't quite see it, but you can kind of see the dark shapes moving and you get these bubbles every once in a while.

1:04:23 But we haven't quite pierced the veil and gone behind the scenes, but we can still interpret what's going on. So whether it's the signal group leak where they tried to out Pete Hegseth and you had Mike Waltz, who was a national security advisor for Donald Trump, secretly leaking information and communicating with Netanyahu right before Benjamin Netanyahu Came to negotiate with Trump. He was caught for that lit a literal Israeli spy in the highest levels of our government in the National Security Administration Caught leaking this information. So this whole time there's been this back-and-forth tug-of-war battle taking place. We've been reporting on it Joe Kent is just the latest bubble to burst to the surface and And show what's going on underneath and because of that we're hearing about Mark Levin talking about him being a leaker He's removed from intelligence briefings all that sort of stuff

1:05:15 So it's all coming to the surface, but this has been a long simmering conflict in the Trump administration. Robert Barnes joins me now and actually takes over for me. He's gonna grasp the baton and take us into the future. Robert Barnes, thank you so much for being here with us. I assume you've read the Joe Kent letter. What is your take on this? Not a surprise, Joe Kent is a great hero of America, provided, did 11 combat tours. His wife died in service to the country. He ran for Congress multiple times. So he was basically the number two under Tulsi Gabbard as the Director of National Intelligence. And there has been an inside war ever since Trump was elected.

1:06:00 between OG, MAGA and the Israel lobby that had bought so much influence in the Trump campaign through donations in the fall of 2024. And much of this was not known to the public. But it was out there if you had new people that were involved and connected to it. The latest person to be denied service in the Trump administration over his prior very modest criticisms of Israel was Jeremy Carl, who was gonna be in the State Department. Anybody who has voiced any skepticism at all

1:05:15 So it's all coming to the surface, but this has been a long simmering conflict in the Trump administration. Robert Barnes joins me now and actually takes over for me. He's gonna grasp the baton and take us into the future. Robert Barnes, thank you so much for being here with us. I assume you've read the Joe Kent letter. What is your take on this? Not a surprise, Joe Kent is a great hero of America, provided, did 11 combat tours. His wife died in service to the country. He ran for Congress multiple times. So he was basically the number two under Tulsi Gabbard as the Director of National Intelligence. And there has been an inside war ever since Trump was elected.

1:06:00 between OG, MAGA and the Israel lobby that had bought so much influence in the Trump campaign through donations in the fall of 2024. And much of this was not known to the public. But it was out there if you had new people that were involved and connected to it. The latest person to be denied service in the Trump administration over his prior very modest criticisms of Israel was Jeremy Carl, who was gonna be in the State Department. Anybody who has voiced any skepticism at all

1:06:40 of the Israel lobby has been systematically and systemically purged from the Trump administration, which began all the way back when Dan Caldwell was kicked out. Now apparently Tulsi Gabbard's bringing him back in to replace Joe Kent when he was working for Pete Heggs death, our Secretary of War. So, this has been an ongoing battle. The key question has been all along, to what extent will the Trump administration be completely hijacked by the Israel lobby and its donors. Many of these donors, like Miriam Adelson, like Paul Singer, like John Paulson, like Bill Ackman, a whole bunch of them, are people that have been long-standing critics of Trump, who waged political and every other means of war against President Trump all the way back to 2016.

1:07:34 But he did a deal with the devil in the fall of 2024 to take their money as Howard Lutnick admitted who raised money for Hillary Clinton in 2016 and is all the way through the Epstein files despite his public lies otherwise. admitted the reason why he shifted to Trump in 2024, now he's Secretary of Commerce, is because he's a huge Israel supporter, Israel firster, and that Trump promised to be the best president Israel has ever had in the White House. So this has been ongoing building. The reality is people are out there buying into the Fox News, Boomer Con propaganda slop.

1:08:11 Iran as, just to give you an idea. So Joe Kent, one of the great American heroes, provided extensive military service to our country. His wife died in military service to our country. Became politically active to try to stop our stupid foolish wars that led to the death of his wife and many of his colleagues in various conflicts in the Middle East and the Arab and Muslim world over the past two decades, or really three decades now. And that's why he agreed to volunteer for service as the head of national counterterrorism. So when he says Iran presented no imminent risk to the United States, you could have no more credible source than that. Now there's going to be a massive smear campaign against Joe Kent now that he's out. They'll accuse him of leaking, which is what they've accused everybody of that was Israel skeptical. They come up with some bogus pretext.

1:09:06 to try to be critical of him. Joe Kent clearly was not leaking because nobody else knew about his public, about his criticism inside the White House of this war. Instead, the president has chosen to basically be the puppet of Bibi Netanyahu. And you don't have to go very far. You can look at Secretary Rubio's comments about how we started the war because we thought Israel was gonna start anyway. The same statement made by President Trump in various contexts and capacities over the last two weeks, where he's implicitly acknowledged he did it for Israel. That's the only logic. Now, he can't publicly admit that fully in the way Joe Kent details.

1:09:51 in his resignation letter because he knows how weak and impotent that makes him look. But it's the reality. Now you're gonna have people like Matt Boyle over at Breitbart run cover for the administration in order to get continuing access and frankly lie about what's happening with Trump. The people on the right and the institutional media and a lot of the influencers space are out there regurgitating the Fox News, Boomer Con, MIC slop When they know it's nonsense. The reality is President Trump used to be someone who understood the risk of Middle Eastern regime change war. Donald, President Trump used to be someone who would listen to others and try to get second, third and fourth opinions. He no longer is. When I was up in the, in DC in January, I was told by high ranking officials in the Trump administration,

1:10:44 that they had been specifically told, do not share any negative information with the president. He only wants to hear things that he will interpret positively. If you share negative news, then you are at risk of being isolated. from any degree of influence in the administration. That's how bad it is. Trump has become, has developed memento memory. And that's why you've seen him say things that are just patently false, provably false about this conflict in the first two weeks. Contradict himself repeatedly, sometimes in the same statement, sometimes in the same post. I mean, you just saw it in the last 24 hours.

1:11:23 President Trump went out begging for NATO assistance. All the other NATO allies said no, thank you. And so what does he pose today? Well, I never wanted anybody's assistance. Well, you're the one on record just asking for 24 hours ago. This is the sort of delusional mindset that the president is currently in. He is going King Lear mad. That is the reality of it. Anybody, everybody up there knows it. Everybody connected to the administration knows it. Matt Boyle knows it. So he's out there lying, talking about, oh, President Trump's known for his great listening skills. Well, just listen to what President Trump said today. What President Trump said today is that he doesn't want anyone around that disagrees with him about Iran. He publicly said it.

1:12:09 So, quit pretending he wants to listen. Quit pretending he's a good listener. Quit pretending he's getting second, third, and fourth opinions. He's not. His own Pentagon told him the streets of Hormuz would be closed. His own Pentagon told him that they would counterattack our bases throughout the Gulf. So did the National Intelligence Report that is authored by Tulsi Gabbard and others that brings all of our intelligence together, told him there would be no regime change in Iran with this attack. And yet what did he do? He just ignored it. And not only does he ignore it, he literally memory holes it, like the movie Memento, it disappears and vanishes into a form of amnesia.

1:12:52 And instead of being sort of honest about all of this, and the instead he buys it. That's why you see him say things that everybody knows are false. Says nobody thought they would attack our bases in the Gulf. Iran publicly said they would. What in the world are you talking about? Oh, no, everybody thought the regime would collapse. Your own national intelligence report said no, it wouldn't. The oh, every nobody thought they would. Let's close the Straits of Hormuz. That's been part of the simulated strategy for conflict with Iran for 30 years. I mean, he's saying things that are patently false, that he knows or should know are patently false, that he's been told are patently false. And yet he believes these patently false things. Why? Because he is literally closing out of his mind anything that disagrees with what he wants to be true.

1:13:44 The Donald Trump has forgot the lessons of his own book, Art of the Deal. If you read Art of the Deal, one of the things that was seminal from it that I learned as a kid and that I always remembered was that the right mindset to approach anything in life is a bifurcated and balanced one. It's to expect the best. This is the power of positive thinking that President Trump grew up with, people like Norman Vincent Peale and the like. He went to a church that was a big on positive thinking church. So expect the best. But he said tether it with realism. So you have idealism on the one hand, realism on the other. Tether it by planning for the worst.

1:14:27 Trump no longer is planning for the worst. He no longer even wants to hear information or intelligence that could be about the worst. Some of us have been warning about this now for months. Alex and I talked about all the way back when he mishandled the Epstein file. said that he's buying into bogus information about how this will play. Nobody cares about the Epstein files. It's irrelevant, the Epstein files. It's inconsequential, the Epstein files. Nobody will, there'll be no political blowback if we hide the Epstein files and refuse to do accountability on Epstein prosecutions. That was all preposterous. Just whatever you think about the Epstein files, whatever you think about President Trump, that was bad advice that he was

1:15:07 voluntarily taking. And so we said that he was in a dangerous, perilous path to undermine and sabotage his own administration. If he went, it would be self-sabotage of a kind we haven't seen since Nixon with Watergate if he went along with it. And yet he did. And he continues to convince himself of patently false things. I mean, he's one step away from being Nixon in 1974, walking around the White House, talking to the paintings as if they're real people. We've got to face reality here. The people who told me this in January, they were high ranking members of the administration. They wanted to get this information out. They're like, we're in a very perilous place. President Trump doesn't want to hear any information that counters what he wants to have happen.

1:15:52 And what that will do is it will put the administration in harm's way. He will make catastrophically bad decisions that will destroy his own presidency, destroy his own legacy, and gift the Democrats control of the House of Representatives, control of the United States Senate, control in 2028 of the White House, where they may be able to pack the Supreme Court, where they may be able to pack the Senate and pack the House of Representatives by adding states like Puerto Rico in DC, that they may be able to pack the Senate and the House for real, for full, by giving mass amnesty to 20 million plus illegals in the country.

1:16:32 That is the risk and that is the gamble of what the president is taking the chance on by engaging in this foolish conflict with not only extraordinary geopolitical risk around the world, but with domestic economic blowback risk. And he's fracturing the Democratic political coalition, the Trump political coalition that supports him. and empowering the Democrats. He's now gifted them the anti-war cause, and he's going to gift them the accountability issue, and now he's gonna gift them the affordability issue. I mean, it's extraordinary. He took the Epstein files from an asset to a liability. He took war from an asset to a liability. He took the economy from an asset to a liability. That's what he's running the risk of with this conflict.

1:17:22 And just step back, I see a lot of people are buying into various boomer con slop, the war is going great, Trump's won six times already. Then why are we still there? If he won, why are we still there? We won, right? Can we go home now? I mean, Trump's been declaring victory now for two weeks straight. When do we go home if we've won? If this is not an endless war, this is not a forever war. If this is not an indeterminate war with indeterminately achievable objectives. So step back and use some metrics and look at those metrics for how to measure success. If you think, well, what are the objectives according to President Trump himself? It's regime change. It's that you have a pro-Iran, I mean, you have in Iran a pro-Israel, pro-US government that does not threaten the rest of the region in any way politically or militarily.

1:18:13 What is the probability we are going to achieve that? Well, it was predicted that we would get it right away. So Bibi Netanyahu promised President Trump, as is referenced in Joe Ken's resignation letter. Joe Ken's resignation letter references two key lies. One is that the Israel lobby convinced the president of a big lie, which was that Iran was an imminent threat to the safety and security of the United States. Go back to the press secretary who just a week ago said there was no such risk when she was saying don't worry about any kind of sleeper cells or terror existence. Which is it? Now she's out there saying, well, yes, there was always an imminent risk. Well, did you lie last week or are you lying today? Which is it? I don't think holding that little cross around your chest is going to save you from your lies. I mean, she's becoming like a Biden press secretary. Embarrassing to watch in live time. But what's the probability it happens in the future? Well, the latest national intelligence report reaffirms

1:19:08 One co-authored by Joe Kent, one done by Tulsi Gabbard. And what does it say? What does it provide? What does it substantiate? That there is going to be no major regime change to a pro-US, pro-Israel administration in Israel, I mean in Iran. So what we're supposed to leave the second objective? Well, that Iran can never have a nuclear weapon. Well, I'll give you a prediction right now. Trump's wars on Iran will lead Iran to develop a nuclear weapon. Something that the prior Ayatollah, the one we killed, prohibited for a quarter century by his fatwa against nuclear weapons, which by the way is the only reason Iran doesn't have nuclear weapons, is his fatwa against it. That fatwa is now gone. It died with him.

1:19:55 His son is a much stronger hardliner. They're not gonna be able to kill his son because there are plenty of reason to believe in rumors that he is in Moscow getting medical treatment from the attacks that took place that killed his father, killed his wife, killed his mother, and may have killed his one-year-old daughter. That's not, he was someone who came up a harder line in the second generation anyway. The main saboteur, the main insider we were planning on being the Delcy Rodriguez of Iran, well, we'll get to him. But as Trump has said, though he has not said his name, he's dead because he got outed by all of this. So the probabilities of regime change to a pro-US, pro-Israel regime in Iran

1:20:46 that is peaceful and not militaristic is extremely low, according to all the people that do meaningful studies of this. Whether you're talking about our own director of national intelligence and complete national intelligence report, whether you're talking about past national intelligence and military simulation reports, whether you're talking about the people like Brandon Weishart, who has studied this in great detail, people like Professor Pape, people like Professor Mearsheimer, A wide range of scholars who only study issues of geopolitics and many of them prioritize issues connected to Iran, come to the same conclusion that our own director of national intelligence has come to. We cannot achieve regime change to the kind of regime we want in Iran through this war and it is now less likely than ever.

1:21:32 Indeed, Israel's own internal intelligence says the regime is more likely to be a more hardline regime. That is more like the way in which Iran is going to get up with nuclear weapons is because of President Trump's attack on Iran. His attack on Iran increases the risk that Iran gets nuclear weapons. Doesn't decrease it, doesn't diminish it, doesn't destroy it, it increases it. That's the reality, that's the same conclusion that many people in the geopolitics side of the equation have come to the conclusion of. It's the reason why, even though the Israel lobby has been begging for this war with Iran since 1989,

1:22:10 Poppy Bush still knew not to go in. Bill Clinton knew not to go in. George W. Bush knew not to go in. He thought about it a lot, 2007, 2008, but realized it would be a complete disaster according to his own national intelligence and military simulations. over the closure of the Straits of Hormuz, by the way. Barack Obama knew not to go in. Trump in his first term not only knew not to go in, he bragged about it. One of the indictments against him was because he disclosed the plans that he rejected to go into Iran in his first term. Even dimwit dementia Joe Biden knew not to go in. Trump made the catastrophic decision to go in even though Vice President Vance said do not. Even though Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said do not. Even though Deputy Director of National Intelligence Joe Kent said do not. Even though Under Secretary of Defense Elbridge Colby said do not. Even our own Pentagon said

1:23:08 We cannot achieve the objectives you're setting out and it is unlikely we'll be able to secure either the Gulf region or the Straits of Hormuz with if Iran chooses to attack. Trump just ignored it. He didn't want to hear it and now he's convinced himself he never heard it. This is a sign of dangerous recklessness, of wishful thinking becoming lunacy. Notice how Trump is obsessed with using the words deranged and lunatics and crazy all the time of late, and to describe Iran or to describe others. He's describing himself. That's the reality of it.

1:23:44 It's confession through projection. He said, oh, Iran's begging for a ceasefire, but I'm not willing to agree to their terms. Wrong. It's him begging for a ceasefire, thinking Iran would take the bait again. After they took the bait before and they have said before the war even started we will not do that again If you attack us, we're gonna go full throttle. It will be seen as an existential war for Iran They are not stopping Trump's out there saying oh all these evidence of the Iranian attacks that continue on a daily basis in the Straits of Hormuz to all the our US bases in the Gulf and in Iraq

1:23:08 We cannot achieve the objectives you're setting out and it is unlikely we'll be able to secure either the Gulf region or the Straits of Hormuz with if Iran chooses to attack. Trump just ignored it. He didn't want to hear it and now he's convinced himself he never heard it. This is a sign of dangerous recklessness, of wishful thinking becoming lunacy. Notice how Trump is obsessed with using the words deranged and lunatics and crazy all the time of late, and to describe Iran or to describe others. He's describing himself. That's the reality of it.

1:23:44 It's confession through projection. He said, oh, Iran's begging for a ceasefire, but I'm not willing to agree to their terms. Wrong. It's him begging for a ceasefire, thinking Iran would take the bait again. After they took the bait before and they have said before the war even started we will not do that again If you attack us, we're gonna go full throttle. It will be seen as an existential war for Iran They are not stopping Trump's out there saying oh all these evidence of the Iranian attacks that continue on a daily basis in the Straits of Hormuz to all the our US bases in the Gulf and in Iraq

1:24:20 and in the Middle East and on Israel. He says, don't worry, that's not even happening. Those are all AI fakes. Well, Bibi Netanyahu's weird recent video appearances, I have a lot of evidence of AI fakes, but these attacks are not AI fakes. I mean, this is the degree of delusional world that Trump has chosen to occupy himself in. And I see people like Matthew Boyle at Breitbart saying, hey, let's cheerlead and seal clap the craziness and let's not talk at all about how crazy it is. No, no, no. Whatever you do, just sit there and seal clap. That's a good way to have the whole country go off the cliff with President Trump. The best way you can help President Trump is by being honest.

1:25:04 about what is happening. That he is losing his mind and he's listening to the wrong sources and wrong people because he's choosing to. He's shutting out the warnings and those warnings come with escalatory risk. Risk of nuclear war because it's under contemplation. Risk of a military draft in the United States. Risk of boots on the ground in an utterly futile effort against Iran. So when we get back, we'll talk about the double agent for Iran that misled the president into thinking he had a Delcy Rodriguez and how that person is literally no longer alive to do so. Has him full words not delivered. In Gladiator, he chops up the first four guys when they throw him in the ring or in the arena and he says, are you not entertained? Are you not entertained? I would say to you, are you

1:25:52 Are you not satisfied? Have we not delivered in the fight against the Globeless? You bet on the right horse and I'm asking you to continue to bet on us as the NFL war continues on regardless as we refuse to submit to the tyrants. But the reasons it's such a win-win or a non-zero-sum game or a 360 win that Termite coined over a decade ago is because everybody participating. Supports freedom, supports the fight against tyrants, the fight for team humanity, against globalists, and you get incredible products at the same time.

Well, it's historic time for America and the world. The facts are all coming out. This is truly the age of revelation. Joe Kent, the head of the Office of National Counterterrorism, number 200, Tulsi Gabbard, who oversees all 17 intelligence agencies, went public and resigned and said Israel's basically staged a coup over the Trump White House on foreign policy. My wife died for them.

1:28:05 They got her killed and now they're trying to domestically take over as well with all the censorship and controls. And Mark Levin now we're told is the spirit animal of the Republican Party. We must follow everything he says or we are excommunicata. I mean, this is just incredibly insane. I mean, it's everything Trump said. Robert Barnes gave me excellent analysis. I wanted to bring something up and get his incredible historical perspective on this. Walter Cronkite came out and said that basically the war was lost years before they had to admit it. Then Daniel Ellsberg, the Pentagon papers, a high-level analyst at the Pentagon and CIA went public that they knew they'd lost, but it was just a way to make money and war game everything and have domestic control. Then of course, Scott or David Kelly on the eve of the 2003 Iraq

1:28:51 Or was their head expert. He said it was all a giant fraud that Iraq didn't have weapons of mass destruction so they murdered him. That goes back to Tony Blair. Now in the stature of all these people, Cronkite media wise is bigger than Joe Kent, but Joe Kent is much more prestigious and high level than Daniel Ellsberg or even Dr. David Kelly. And so to have him do this, being a gold star husband to his wife that died in 11 combat tours, highly decorated, extremely respected, And to have him come out like this and say Trump must change course, this war is a disaster. They war game it all. We know they gave him a report, a special study a week before, 17 days ago when he started this war. So about 20, 25, 24 days ago, and Trump completely ignored it. Israel went ahead and launched the attack to get us in. This is absolutely outrageous. We have the head of the ADL

1:29:47 saying, we do what we do with pagers and attacks and how we handle Hamas with domestic groups that get involved in our politics. So this is a huge, huge, huge deal, ladies and gentlemen. This is so historically dangerous. This is the very sovereignty of our country. Now in the past, Communist China was the biggest infiltrator and was the number one threat, still is. But Israel was heavily, heavily number two. right there with the EU and the UK involved in our business. But now Israel, seeing the Democrats sink, really is trying to fill the power vacuum right now. And so we have to just call it off what it is. There has been a partial coup over the United States of America. We have to just get that information out and talk about it. So here's a clip of Walter Cronkite

1:30:39 historically kicking all this off and Joe Kent is in line with all of that and Daniel Ellsberg and Dr. David Kelly. He's in a lot of I think physical danger. The globalists are openly threatening everybody. So this is such a dangerous moment, while we have the Democrats waiting in the wings to bring in the great reset in the new world order. Trump has been dismantling globalism, ignoring their national order. But now he's launched a new order and Israel brags in their papers that this all hurts US interest, makes them strong. And that when they're done with us, that we crash because this war will run up the national debt because of the inflation, that they will be the new center of the world and the new power structure. This is megalomania, 110%, it's

1:31:20 This is insanely dangerous and that is where we are right now. So here is Walter Cronkite almost 60 years ago and I'll come back and have a few words for Robert Barnes because I want him to give us historical analysis about how huge this Joe Kent situation is. I don't think most people realize how big this is. This is going to cause a chain reaction. Other patriots speak out. It's going to be whistleblowers like this that is going to change the course. We're going to win. We have the initiative. We should all be massively white billed right now and proud of America and the patriots because the days of deep state get away what it wants are over. Trump is going to come in and take over the deep state. You got other thing coming. This is the madness of King George. Will he get back on track or will he fail. Let's go to Walter Cronkite and then the great Robert Barnes.

1:31:59 To say that we are closer to victory today is to believe in the face of the evidence the optimists who have been wrong in the past. To suggest we are on the edge of defeat is to yield to unreasonable pessimism. To say that we are mired in stalemate seems the only realistic, if unsatisfactory, conclusion. On the off chance that military and political analysts are right, in the next few months we must test the enemy's intentions in case this is indeed his last big gasp before negotiations. But it is increasingly clear to this report that the only rational way out then will be to negotiate not as victors but as an honorable people who lived up to their pledge to defend democracy and did the best they could.

1:32:50 Mr. Walter Cronkite, good night. And then he came back six months later and said the war is lost. You can find that clip, put it in Post, we post this on X and Rumble. But the issue here is, we got the documents that they knew years before, they were never going to win. It was just a way to make money, to have control, which is what the Wikileaks, what Julian Assange said, that they want forever wars. And Israel wants to get rid of the Mullahs, put something worse in, like they found Hamas, or they put the head of Al Qaeda in charge of Syria a year and a half ago. So that's the reality. I'm going to get off here and let you host Barnes, knocking it out of the park. Really admire your legal prowess, mostly your historical prowess, second to none. But I wanted to just get your view if you agree with me on how historic this is, then riff off what I just said. I'm going to disconnect and continue to watch or listen as I drive. God bless you, Robert Barnes. Be sure and follow us on X. At RolexShowns, be sure and follow.

1:33:42 Robert on his next account as well. Robert Barnes, take over, talk about the historic nature and what you think we should do rallying behind Joe Kent. As he's desperately saying it's time for Trump to still change course. There's still time. And if he doesn't, that report reportedly told him not just that the middles wouldn't fall, but it would cause a chain reaction, turning the world against us and driving up energy prices that would derail Trump's economic plan by spiking inflation. Robert Barnes. Yeah, I think Joe, somebody like Joe Kent would not resign unless escalatory risk or Professor Pape calls it the escalatory trap was becoming a high risk. It appears that the fact that he is resigning in the way that he is proves two things. One, that there has, as Alex details, an Israeli coup of American foreign policy in the American presidency. It has been an effort afoot now for more than a year, dating back to the beginning of the administration. It was what led Tucker Carlson to be such a high profile critic because he saw it happening in live time.

1:34:43 The second aspect is it's the most and what that means by the way. is that there's risk of the draft, there's risk of boots on the ground, there's risk of using nuclear weapons. That's the kind of thing that would motivate Kent to step down now rather than try to stay as an advocate within the administration, realizing that this is what Trump is considering and he's not listening to any critics or anybody with a dissident information as he implicitly admitted today from the Oval Office. Doesn't want anybody to disagree with him in the administration. That is a very perilous path to be on. The second thing is this is the most significant and consequential resignation of a public official since the lion himself, William Jennings Bryan, resigned as Secretary of State when Woodrow Wilson brought us into World War I, despite the fact that Wilson ran in 1917, 1916 on how he kept us out of war.

1:35:40 And then he already had a plan afoot. He betrayed the American voters, much as President Trump is doing right now with this Middle Eastern regime change war that he campaigned on against for the better part of a decade. I see these people keep saying that, oh, he always said Iran can't have a nuclear weapon. But that isn't the reason this war started. This reason started in order to have regime change on behalf of Israel. And Israel, by the way, doesn't want a peaceful, democratic Iran. They don't want any rivals in the region, period. That is why they took out Larijani today, who was known as a pragmatic leader.

1:36:17 leader who could actually effectuate a potential deal with the United States to have a more peaceful Iranian regime in its relations with the US. Well, he was murdered. This is what Israel does. As soon as they think peace might happen, they go and do murder in Iran. They did it before. They started the attack last summer. And so this was a continuation. And as long as a foreign nation is hijacking our foreign policy, then we are at great risk of escalatory conflict that could be extremely damaging to the world. Not to mention Trump's legacy, not to mention the MAGA coalition, not to mention this is the best way to give Democrats complete power by 2028.

1:37:00 It is also geopolitically dangerous because it may lead to a draft being talked about in the White House in the US or and or nuclear war. That is a that is a nightmare dystopian scenario for anybody with any degree of sanity. But there is nobody in Israel right now that has any degree of sanity in the power structure that exists there. They're trying to they're busy covering up. the Israeli soldiers engaging in systematic rape and sodomy of Palestinian detainees who were caught on tape. An Israeli whistleblower, an Israeli doctor were the ones that reported them. And now all charges against them are being dismissed in the middle of this. And they're celebrating that in Israel. So, now how did we get into this at all? There was the deal with the devil, Trump cut with the big Israel First donors in the fall of 2024. That is a substantial part of this.

1:37:53 There's the way in which the Epstein files were doctored by the deep state to deceive Trump into hiding and into hiding those documents in such a way that it something that could exonerate him and incriminate his enemies. He managed to incriminate himself and exonerate himself. and exonerate his enemies. That was an extraordinary reverse skill set of Jeffrey Epstein's files and Epstein was a long-standing, well-known asset of Mossad. The number one family implicated in, throughout the Epstein files, is the Rothschild family. They're currently busy trying to purge all evidence of them from the files, deleting all kinds of files while this war is going on, including files that have already been publicly released in some cases to try to claim that later on that maybe they're AI or fake because they're no longer on the Justice Department website.

1:38:46 The Rothschilds family famous for getting fabulously rich off doing what? Whispering people into war. They're usually on both sides of the war. That's the history of the Rothschild banking family who established global investment banking as a template and model of operation, all the way back in the late 18th century. So the other way we got into this is goes into the person who was the believed by Trump to be his Delcy Rodriguez. This was the commander of the CUDS division, basically the covert operations group that was previously run by Soleimani.

1:39:22 The Soleimani's assassination in Trump's first term was facilitated by inside information, but nobody ever knew who. The person that got to replace Soleimani, the heads, I think his name is Connie, became the head of the Quds division, the covert operation for Iran. That what he did is he then ended up, as soon as he was put in charge, All of a sudden, all kinds of successful CIA and Mossad assassinations start to occur, including within Iran of Hamas leaders, including in Iraq of various Syria militia leaders, including in Syria of key people holding up the Assad regime.

1:40:05 the including in Lebanon of a whole bunch of people there are Hezbollah and then not once but twice in Iran itself. First, the nuclear scientist in the summer and then the Ayatollah himself, February 28. It appears that this individual was the person that Trump thought he could get to be in charge of the regime. It appears to have been his motivation all along because there was otherwise no reason to believe he was this double. Agent the he was in a perfect position because his head of covert operations He knew the locations and identity of pretty much everybody that was an Iranian proxy or within the Iranian regime itself So he was he you couldn't have anybody's like Aldrich Ames who best to be a spy the spy that's in the counterintelligence division that's supposed to be monitoring Russia's spies being as Russians by himself and

1:40:54 But he didn't appear to have monetary motivations, familial motivations, blackmail motivations. None of that would seem to fit. What is most likely is that he thought it was a great opportunity to seize power himself. And that if he could just work with the US and Israel to take everybody else out, he could grab power. And he implicitly promised that if he did, there would be different relations with Israel and the US. The problem is the Russians and the Chinese since the attacks in the summer have been helping Iranian counterintelligence particularly in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. And what that did is they were able to tip him off that this is the guy. He kept magically being near locations that he was supposed to be in and then leaving 10 to 15 minutes before a bomb blew up. That was true with Hezbollah, that was true with the Hamas individual in Tehran, that was true with several of the nuclear scientists. Indeed, he was falsely reported to have been dead in the attacks in the summer because he was supposed to be somewhere that he magically got out of about five minutes before the bombs hit.

1:41:55 So what he was supposed to be the one, but Russian Chinese intelligence were already monitoring him along with counterintelligence at the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. And his big mistake was the only reason he was staying in power is because the Ayatollah who was very a naive idealistic guy contrary to the conventional wisdom in the West. This is a guy who spent half his time writing poems. So, you know, he's not exactly your stereotype or caricature that people would imagine. He had nowhere near the political ruthlessness of his predecessor. He was his protector. So once he was out, the counterintelligence division in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard could use

1:42:36 their allies with the China and Russia to document in detail. He also miraculously left the building about 15 minutes before it got hit again. In this case, taking out the Ayatollah and a bunch of others. So he got caught and apparently had one of those suicide pills on him and managed to kill himself before he could be interrogated. So the person we were expecting, this is who Trump is referring to, though he won't refer to him specifically by name because that would out him as a double agent all along. When he says, well, the people we thought would replace the regime are dead. As soon as that happened, President Trump had to realize, okay, this isn't gonna work.

1:43:14 and needed to start de-escalating, not escalating. Now what does that look like since Iran, like Russia and Ukraine, holds a veto, a de facto veto, over any effective peace proposal? Israel has enough, contrary to what you're hearing, Iran has enough ballistic missiles and drones, which they can continue to produce in mass underground, to continue this conflict for years and years and years and years. There's no reason to believe that we are going to be able to completely eliminate their capacity to launch ballistic missiles into the Gulf, along the Straits of Hormuz, or into Israel. That's not an achievable objective. The second aspect is their drones. We're seeing $50,000 drones take out half a billion dollar radars.

1:42:36 their allies with the China and Russia to document in detail. He also miraculously left the building about 15 minutes before it got hit again.

When he says, well, the people we thought would replace the regime are dead. As soon as that happened, President Trump had to realize, okay, this isn't gonna work.

1:43:14 and needed to start de-escalating, not escalating. Now what does that look like since Iran, like Russia and Ukraine, holds a veto, a de facto veto, over any effective peace proposal? Israel has enough, contrary to what you're hearing, Iran has enough ballistic missiles and drones, which they can continue to produce in mass underground, to continue this conflict for years and years and years and years. There's no reason to believe that we are going to be able to completely eliminate their capacity to launch ballistic missiles into the Gulf, along the Straits of Hormuz, or into Israel. That's not an achievable objective. The second aspect is their drones. We're seeing $50,000 drones take out half a billion dollar radars.

1:44:06 The the so there's no real meaningful ability. They're easy to produce. They're inexpensive to produce. They're hard to track and trace where they're being produced and they're easy to launch. Iran is a massive massive country surrounded by mountains. It is a very difficult terrain to be in. It makes Afghanistan look like kids play. It makes Vietnam look like child's hour in terms of a place you could try to take over with ground forces or successfully take out all their ballistic missiles or take out all their drones. So contrary to what the president is telling people, they have plenty of ballistic missiles, they have plenty of drones. They will continue to launch them until they get what they want.

1:44:52 The third aspect is the regime is highly unlikely to collapse. You've seen a bunch of fake polls. These are fake polls from CIA cutouts through the National Endowment for Democracy and USAID. One of them's called GIMM. They're run out of the Netherlands and Canada. They are totally fake polls about Iran. And one of the ways you know they're fake polls is they claim only a small percentage of Iranians are Shia. Over 90% of Iranians are Shia. And if you want to know the true Iranian public opinion, there's a professor, the Antwar Sadat professor at the University of Maryland, who has done extensive surveys of all the Middle East. And what he found was that while Iranians would like their economic conditions to improve,

1:45:32 and don't want a strict imposition of their morality police, they are otherwise are not seeking regime change. Indeed only about 12% of the country said they would prefer a functional democracy to the existing religious Islamic Republic. This would not surprise you if you understood the history of Shia. This would not surprise you if you would track Shia opinions of Iran outside of Iran. So if you looked at the opinions held in Iraq by Shia, held in Pakistan by Shia, held in Bahrain by Shia, held in Syria by Shia, held in Lebanon by Shia, they have had a favorable opinion of the Iranian regime since its inception and that has never changed.

1:46:15 The people that don't like Iran are the Sunni Muslims, the Israelis and other groups. But that tells you when 90 percent of Iran is Shia and the Shia around the world outside of Iran have a favorable opinion of it, you knew there was no mass domestic political uprising likely to occur. The economic protests in January that were precipitated by our economic sabotage of the Iranian currency as Soros Scotty Bessett has publicly bragged about under oath before Congress, in case anybody had any doubts about it, were then hijacked by groups likely supported by that same double agent.

1:46:54 That same double agent was well known for his ties to Iranian operatives and other operations in Afghanistan and Pakistan, as well as to the MEK. He was supposed to be running counterintelligence against them. It appears he imported them in, helped fund them, helped arm them, helped bring in the Starlink terminals to stage that coup in January. The problem was there wasn't mass public support for those protests. So when they turned violent, it was the protesters who turned violent. They started lighting mosques on fire. They started lighting ambulances on fire. They started attacking clerics. They started attacking hospital workers. They started attacking local police.

1:47:34 That's when the public turned in mass against them. That's when the crackdown occurred. There were no 30,000 innocent protesters killed. That's complete garbage. They're gonna keep making up numbers from now into eternity on it. It just doesn't honestly represent and reflect what's happening on the ground. So there wasn't this mass desire to have mass regime change amongst the public in mass in Iran to begin with. And then you go to the second reason why the Iranians do not want regime change. They've seen what Iraq looks like. They've seen what Syria looks like. They've seen what Libya looks like. They've seen what Lebanon looks like. They've seen what Gaza looks like. They don't want that nightmare to visit their country.

1:48:17 So that's the second practical geopolitical realist reason. And as soon as we started bombing schools and bombing historical sites and bombing hospitals and bombing local police stations and bombing public parks, all of which we have done in this war because we're taking our list from either AI or Israel, and they want chaos, they want no regional rival that can compete with them. So they want Iran to look like Syria, to look like Iraq, to look like Libya, to look like Lebanon. The public massively turned against the US in Iran, including longstanding deep critics of Iran. The other two ways you knew Iran was not likely to have a domestic insurrection and bring about a pro-US, pro-Israel regime in Iran

1:49:01 is the other two factors are Persian pride and Iranian nationalism. To understand the power and potency of Persian pride, understand that they were invaded by the Muslims, by the Arab Muslims in the seventh century. Before that, they were invaded by Alexander the Great out of Greece in the fourth century. They were invaded by the Mongols. They were in all three cases, in the cases of the Arab Muslims, in the case of the Greeks, In the case of the Mongols, they didn't conquer Persia. Persia ended up conquering them, at least culturally. They ended up being converted to the Persian cause, to the Persian identity. This is the power of Persian pride and the history of that culture that dates back to Cyrus the Great, who Alexander the Great went and visited his tomb when he first took over a

1:49:48 So when you know that there is going to be no domestic desire for regime change within either the Iranian public political structure or within the broad populace, then you know that is an unachievable objective. So Trump has to reassess what is Iran's veto going to be. Well, President Putin's already offered President Trump an offering. And what does that off-ramp entail? Allow the enriched nuclear material to be relocated to Russia, number one. Number two, the U.S. take out its bases out of the Mideast. We should have been out of there a long time ago anyway. It was a mistake to ever be there. And three, some form of economic and sanctions relief.

1:50:33 And last but not least, some form of security guarantee that's either provided by Russia or China or somebody else because Iran no longer trusts the United States. What the president should do is stop the attacks now, pull our ships out. Gerald Ford, the sailors are so unhappy, they sabotage according to published reports, the ship again because they want to go back home. They don't want to be fighting in this conflict. There's a record number of conscientious objections within the military as we speak to this conflict. You've got lunatic generals running around preaching apocalyptic religion that they want to bring in the end of the world in this conflict. That does not inspire your soldiers to go in for it. So president needs to take the Putin off ramp that has again been offered.

1:51:14 and use that rather than to escalate into potential drafts, into potential boots on the ground, into potential nuclear war. Do it now Mr. President. He's had his long-standing affair with his donor mistress the Israel First lobby. It's time to abandon her. She's sabotaging you, sabotaging your legacy, sabotaging America, sabotaging the world, and return to your MAGA wife who who has always been the true loyalist, the OG MAGA, not the current fake MAGA. And then the President Trump can indeed make America great again, because right now all he's doing is making Israel great again. I'm making this announcement on Tuesday, March 3rd, 2026. You have until the 17th of March to take advantage of the March mega sale at thealishowstore.com. This is one of the biggest sales of the year yet, up to 40% off store wide.

1:55:50 All right, welcome back. Hour three of the Alex Jones show. I'm Mike Adams here coming to you from our studios near Austin, Texas. And I've got quite a lineup for you here. Although Robert Barnes just did an outstanding job with his analysis and I have to agree with his conclusion. It is clearly time for Trump to divorce the Israel first lobby and put America first because we're running out of time. This war is becoming a disastrous Vietnam 2.0 in the Middle East. And frankly, The US is losing the credibility of its force projection of its Navy, as carriers had to essentially flee. That's what's happening now. And as much as Trump bragged that the war was already won numerous times, Strait of Hormuz is still not open. And that's a problem for the entire world, but especially Western countries. And that's what I'm going to get into today. So here in this segment, just a little table of contents of what I'm about to cover.

1:56:48 I'll be covering the economic consequences of a prolonged shutdown of these critical resources, including not just natural gas, obviously, and oil, but also sulfur. And helium, and then downstream effects such as sulfuric acid shortages, the aluminum industry, and much more. Fertilizer and food crops and what that means for food yields over the next couple of growing seasons. Because you see, what's been set into motion right now can't be fixed. It can't be turned around even if there's peace tomorrow. Many of these systems are shut down in a way that will require weeks or months to bring back online.

1:57:29 And that's true with natural gas in Qatar, for example. Qatar Energy already declared force majeure and they've shut down their energy production. And because of that, it will take at least one month for them to bring that back online. And as you're going to hear in my analysis today, that helium production will take months to come back online. And you say, well, so what about helium? What's the deal with helium? Well, in addition to being very useful for talking like Ben Shapiro, it also is used in microchips manufacturing and in laboratory analysis. Without helium, Taiwan's semiconductor can't make the microchips that power so much of our Western technology.

1:58:11 And helium has been cut off. We're about to go into an extreme global helium shortage. So we're going to talk about that. Sulfuric acid is used in the production of fertilizers and phosphate fertilizers. And urea also is another critical commodity that's in very short supply right now because a significant portion of it comes out of the Persian Gulf. And think about it, right now, the Strait of Hormuz remains essentially closed. It is de facto closed. And I don't know why it's so difficult to get this through the thick skulls of some people who say, well, no, it's open, it's not blocked. Well, okay, it's not physically blocked. But if you try to go through without permission, as a tanker just found out last night, you get bombed and set on fire. You get hit by drones.

1:58:59 And Trump brags about how, well, we've destroyed the Iranian Navy. We've destroyed their Air Force. Okay, well then why isn't the Strait of Hormuz open? Because Iran doesn't need a navy in order to harass ships going through the region. And I've said this before, that the Strait of Hormuz is not open until Iran decides it's open. And there's nothing that you can do to force it open. And remember just recently Trump tried to get all these other countries, European countries and Australia and Japan, send your ships, send your naval vessels, help us reopen the Strait of Hormuz. It's basically Trump begging for a military bailout from the very countries that he mocked as having weak militaries and countries that he punished with punitive tariffs also. And now all those countries have said no, no thank you. We're not gonna get involved in your war, we're not sending ships.

1:59:54 And besides, if it were so easy to open up the Strait of Hormuz, why hasn't the US military done it? And the answer is because it's not that easy. It's basically impossible without Iran's consent. And that's why Iran has set out its terms, terms like reparations and recognizing Iran's intrinsic right to develop nuclear energy technology and to enrich nuclear fuel, for example. And until those rights are recognized, the straight will not be open. So when we come back here for the rest of this hour, I'm gonna walk you through the dire consequences of what this means for America and the rest of the Western world if that straight stays closed for a few more weeks or months. So stay tuned, we'll be right back. All right, welcome back, Mike Adams here with the third hour of the Alex Jones Show today. And as I promised, we're gonna be walking through the dire consequences of

2:00:46 of the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz. And also during the break, Matt Bracken had sent over this tweet from an observer, Radigan Carter, who talks about how There's a specific turn in the Strait of Hormuz, and if you could bring up the straight map there again. There's a turn there that exposes ships to 270 degrees of fire control in layered systems from the surrounding high ground. Basically, it's a suicide run if you try to run through that straight without permission.

1:59:54 And besides, if it were so easy to open up the Strait of Hormuz, why hasn't the US military done it? And the answer is because it's not that easy. It's basically impossible without Iran's consent. And that's why Iran has set out its terms, terms like reparations and recognizing Iran's intrinsic right to develop nuclear energy technology and to enrich nuclear fuel, for example. And until those rights are recognized, the straight will not be open. So when we come back here for the rest of this hour, I'm gonna walk you through the dire consequences of what this means for America and the rest of the Western world if that straight stays closed for a few more weeks or months. So stay tuned, we'll be right back. All right, welcome back, Mike Adams here with the third hour of the Alex Jones Show today. And as I promised, we're gonna be walking through the dire consequences of

2:00:46 of the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz. And also during the break, Matt Bracken had sent over this tweet from an observer, Radigan Carter, who talks about how There's a specific turn in the Strait of Hormuz, and if you could bring up the straight map there again. There's a turn there that exposes ships to 270 degrees of fire control in layered systems from the surrounding high ground. Basically, it's a suicide run if you try to run through that straight without permission.

2:01:22 And thus, there is no one in the world, there's no technology in the world. There you go, that map shows you see where you have to make that sharp turn and those high islands on both sides of your flanking both sides of your ships. Now think about this, even if the US Navy will escort, let's say tankers through that straight. All that's doing is exposing the tanker and the US naval ships to unlimited fire. Unlimited fire, they will both be destroyed. In fact, I think it was one of the high level Iranian officials who said that they will allow any tanker safe passage if they can convince a US naval vessel to escort it. I mean, that's a sense of humor because of course the US naval vessel would be destroyed and sunk right there in the middle of the street.

2:02:09 And as much as Trump keeps announcing total victory and total decimation of Iranians military forces, none of that matters if you can't reopen the strait, does it? And again, Iran doesn't need a navy to open the strait. So as I said, the strait is not open until Iran says it's open. And also until the insurers that insure these vessels will allow them to sail. And you can bet that all these insurers, including Lloyds of London, whoever else does all the insurance policies, these vessels, not only have they raised their rates for ships that are allowed to move around, but they've said no insurance for you if you're trying to traverse the Strait of Hormuz. So without insurance, they're not sailing. And that's why there are over 3,000 ships stuck in the Persian Gulf right now with no exit, only

2:02:58 They can exit with permission from Iran. That's why, for example, a Chinese bound oil tanker was allowed to transit. That's why Iranian flag ships are allowed to transit. But you've got these morons on social media that are saying, ships went through, it must be open again. No, it's open if you have the permission of Iran. If you don't have permission, You don't get to transit the Strait of Hormuz. And see, so it's a selective, it's not just mining the waters with old dumb minds that blow up every ship. That hasn't happened. And that was never an accurate claim. This is about certain ships are allowed to pass.

2:03:39 And other ships are not. And right now the only ships allowed to pass are ships that are bound for friendly countries that is friendly to Iran. Could be Russia, could be China, could be Pakistan, maybe even North Korea, for example, and that's it. And that's equating to a couple of ships a day right now, down from a typical volume of something like 80 or 90 ships per day is what used to transit the strait before this war began. So if you hear anybody saying, well, their ship's still going through, yeah, that's because they have permission. All right, here's the other thing. Right now, let's talk about LNG tankers, liquid natural gas. And if you could show a picture of some of those LNG tankers, they're the ships that have the giant domes on them. Because that's where you have the pressurized liquefied natural gas that of course drives much of the world's economy and much of the world's industry.

2:04:33 And those ships are like floating bombs actually if they were to be attacked. I mean, look at that. That is compressed, liquefied natural gas. The amount of energy that is stored in those domes is tremendous. You do not want that released all at once. Right, and you do not want those under fire from any kind of drones or missiles or anything like that. You wouldn't dare get those close to a war zone. Well, out of all of those tankers that exist on planet Earth, half of them are currently stuck in the Persian Gulf, half of them. Which means that even if you had other sources of natural gas, and for example, the United States is a producer of natural gas. There are other gas fields around the world, although the Middle East fields are by far the most prolific out of Qatar in particular. But even if you had other sources, you don't have the ships in existence to meet world demand for natural gas right now.

2:05:33 The ships just don't exist. And how long would it take to build those ships? Well, years, obviously. So forget it. The only way that our world gets back on track in terms of industry In terms of output, and also like we're gonna talk about microchips and automobiles and anything that our friendly allies make in Japan or Taiwan or in Western Europe, or even Australia for that matter. The only way that this gets back online is if the strait is opened and you can't open it without Iran's consent, period. I don't care if you land 5,000 Marines,

2:06:09 on those islands. Doesn't matter. You know why? Even if you take the islands, Iran can still harass ships from inland. Iran can launch drones from northeastern Iran because the drones have a 2,000 kilometer range, by the way. So it doesn't matter if you take the islands. The only thing that has to happen for the insurers to shut down the ships is for Iran to publicly claim We will attempt to damage ships that pass through the strait without our permission. They don't even have to actually do it. All they have to do is say they're gonna do it. And that's it, the straight is closed, all right? So all of the threats from Trump, all of the bluster, all of the claims of total victory and total decimation, it doesn't mean a damn thing to Iran. Iran is just laughing at the moment and saying, yeah, you know what, you lost. You lost because we control the straight and foremost, which means we, Iran,

2:07:08 We control the Western world's economies. We control the price of energy, and the price of energy determines the success or failure of your economy. So until Trump realizes that, the West is going to keep losing big time, no matter what happens militarily. Doesn't matter how many buildings you blow up in Tehran, right? You still can't allow ship to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. So what Trump should do kind of like what Robert Barnes said in the last segment in my opinion is he should divorce the mistress of Netanyahu, you know alive or dead whatever his state happens to be Trump should divorce from the Israeli lobby and the Zionist control over his administration Trump should make peace with Iran and

2:07:55 reach a negotiated deal that allows Western industries and economies to come back from the brink of total destruction, which is where they're headed right now. The problem with that is America burned its credibility when it comes to negotiations. Because for the past two times that the US has quote negotiated with Iran, last summer the US then murdered the negotiators. And in this last round of negotiations with Whitkoff and Jared Kushner, I believe, that in those negotiations, the US started bombing again, even though the negotiations had progress. And I believe Oman was helping with those negotiations and they were at the verge of having an agreement and Iran had already made some concessions. But Trump went ahead and ordered the attack anyway, why? Because Netanyahu told him to do so.

2:08:48 So the only way to save America, I mean, forget about, I mean, we have to go beyond the concept of just making America great again. We need to save America now, save America from this disastrous war. The only way to save America is to divorce Israel and put America first instead of Israel's interests. That's what has to happen for Trump to have any kind of chance of saving his presidency, saving the GOP in the upcoming elections, and saving America from the economic destruction that I'm about to describe for you. And of course, I've unleashed a

2:09:24 A bunch of AI research agents to pull together a report that I'm gonna be reading from here. I won't be showing you the report, but I just wanna let you know, I didn't manually do all this research myself, but I pulled it up. And let's just start walking through some of this, because here's what we're gonna cover. We're gonna cover not only the oil export situation, liquefied natural gas and why that's so critical. But global helium supply, the sulfur supply, because not a lot of people are thinking about the sulfur, fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizers, urea, ammonia and phosphate inputs that are used for agriculture around the world. And then I've got some food supply and crop yield projections for you, as well as petrochemicals and plastic, copper and aluminum, and a list of different organizations around the world that have already declared force majeure, and it's a growing list.

2:08:48 So the only way to save America, I mean, forget about, I mean, we have to go beyond the concept of just making America great again. We need to save America now, save America from this disastrous war. The only way to save America is to divorce Israel and put America first instead of Israel's interests. That's what has to happen for Trump to have any kind of chance of saving his presidency, saving the GOP in the upcoming elections, and saving America from the economic destruction that I'm about to describe for you. And of course, I've unleashed a

And then I've got some food supply and crop yield projections for you, as well as petrochemicals and plastic, copper and aluminum, and a list of different organizations around the world that have already declared force majeure, and it's a growing list.

2:10:13 And when they declare force majeure, it means they default on the contracts. So whatever contracts they had about a commitment to deliver a certain amount of natural gas, let's say, natural gas to Taiwan. Taiwan to run its industrial economy because Taiwan is a very prolific manufacturer. Well, they're down to less than two weeks, I believe now of natural gas supplies. That island nation is in dire trouble right now if the gas doesn't flow again. And by the way, China has banned all exports now of refined fuels. So China will not export diesel or kerosene or jet fuel or gasoline to anybody.

2:10:52 including Australia. And Australia's airlines normally rely on China's exports of jet fuel. So even in Australia, the airlines are going to have to start shutting down, or they're going to have to find some other source of fuel, which is highly unlikely, unless they start offering to pay double, triple, or quadruple the price. Similarly, India just recently begged China for urea supplies so that India could continue to operate its fertilizer production facilities. So that India perhaps wouldn't suffer through famine and starvation because India has obviously what almost 1.4 billion people something in that range. And many of them not all of them but many of them live near the poverty line, which means they don't have a lot of

2:11:39 extra income to throw down if food prices doubled. Well, guess what? China said to India, sorry, we can't help you. And then China banned all exports of fertilizers and urea to everyone. Why? Because China realizes what's happening. China's ahead of Trump on this by far. China's like, hey, we better conserve our fuel, our diesel, our oil, our fertilizer, urea, you name it. We better conserve it because there's about to be a global freaking famine here. A global famine that is an obvious effect of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. And I gotta give credit to Michael Yan.

2:12:21 Who I will have on this show on Thursday, by the way. So be sure to rejoin me here on the Alex Jones Show, third hour, coming up two days from now on Thursday. I'm gonna have Michael Yan as a guest. And I've interviewed Michael Yan dozens of times over the last several years. I've had him on this show as well. And Michael Yan has predicted accurately and repeatedly that in a war with Iran, the Strait of Hormuz would be closed. And that when that happened, there would be catastrophic effects, including engineered global famine. He said it numerous times. He held up books about famine numerous times. Trump didn't listen. Trump should have listened to Michael Yan.

2:13:01 If he had, he wouldn't have started this war and we wouldn't be facing the potential starvation affecting billions of people potentially around the world if this thing continues for months. We could be seeing food scarcity at a level that you've never witnessed, really impacting aggressively the countries that have marginal families that are just barely scraping by, just barely have enough to eat. When you raise their food prices 50% or 100%, or you reduce crop yields by 20 or 30%, which is exactly what's about to happen, as I've got in my research report here, I'll share that with you. Then you start driving many people, marginalized people in these countries into extreme poverty and food scarcity. Food insecurity then breeds civil unrest. And that's when you start to get, well, revolts, upheavals,

2:13:57 revolutions. And by the way, right here in America, 60% of American households are just living paycheck to paycheck. They don't have an extra stash of money to cover a doubling of food costs. And they don't have stored food for the most part. I mean, you watching this, yeah, you have some amount of stored food, but the average American does not. And that means that when their food prices start to really skyrocket, which will happen in the fall, Here we are in the planting season right now. So obviously there's a buffer delay of crop yields to work its way through the system. Right now you're eating the food that was grown mostly last year, okay? That is in the northern hemisphere. But in the fall of this year, you'll be eating the food that was grown now.

2:14:45 And that food is not gonna have the same yields that it did last year. So that means that American families are gonna be lining up at food banks like never before. They're gonna be suffering higher food prices, reduced food supply, and they're gonna be suffering There we go, 45 million homes at risk if Iran war continues, 45 million more at risk, excuse me. I would say that's a very small number compared to what my research shows. We're looking at potentially if this goes on long enough, billions of human beings across numerous countries including India that will face food scarcity and the situation is going to become dire. Let me get back to the report here. All right,

2:15:27 So let's talk about the basics here. 20 million barrels of oil a day is now blocked by the Strait of Hormuz. That's a 1970s scale crisis. Jimmy Carter, 1979, the oil crisis then. I remember that people were lined up at gas stations all across America trying to get fuel. There was rationing. And it was a crisis but it was nothing compared to what's about to happen. 20 million barrels of oil a day barrels of oil a day is significant. It's about 20% of the global supply of oil. And the thing is, oil prices, if you need oil, you're going to pay almost anything for it. If you need energy, you're going to pay almost anything. So this is a unique situation where you have to have the oil to keep the lights on. As Cuba is finding out right now, no oil, no power, no power grid, no country.

2:16:25 So Russia is benefiting from this by being able to sell more energy. And China is doing relatively okay because they had far more stockpiles of oil than did the United States. And also, China can get ships through the Strait of Hormuz. So you see, China is gonna be fine during this crisis. America's allies are not. America's allies are in deep trouble. All right, let's go to liquefied natural gas. And by the way, a long term closure of the strait will just decimate any kind of extra supply of oil, strategic reserves, anything like that. That'll be decimated in less than two weeks. So that's not gonna save anything here. And by the way, America's strategic petroleum reserve wasn't refilled before the war, which seems like an incredibly short sighted decision.

2:17:14 All right, liquefied natural gas. So right now, about 20 to 25% of the world's supply of LNG sails through the strait. And again, Qatar Energy already declared force majeure, so they are offline. 112 billion cubic meters of this gas annually. is what comes out of just Qatar. There are no alternative pipelines for those exports. They do not exist. I've seen people draw a line across the peninsula. We could just, let's just have a trucks, just take it this way. Let's just build another canal right here. Okay, great, yeah. You know how long it takes to build a canal?

2:17:57 Look up your history. How long did it take to build a Panama Canal? Huh? You know, this is not something you can do overnight. And by the way, good luck building a canal while you're getting bombed by Iran. You know, good luck transporting on trucks across the land while getting bombed by Iran. So that's not going to work. I don't know why people aren't even thinking about this. So look, 72% of the energy of Bangladesh comes from the Persian Gulf. 53% of India's energy comes from the Persian Gulf, that's why they're in a crisis. Wow, okay, Japan only has 4.4 million tons in reserve. South Korea only has two to four weeks in reserve. Taiwan, as I said, is about a two week supply. If the liquid natural gas doesn't get restarted, US allies

2:18:56 In the Pacific, East Asia, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, even Vietnam, for example. Major manufacturers and exporters of all kinds of goods, from semiconductors to home appliances, to scientific instruments, telecommunications, computing, you name it. They're all going to be offline because they have no energy. And Iran can just sit there and say, well, let us know when you're ready to make a deal. And I believe that Trump's ego is going to cause him to never be willing to make a deal. because Trump wants to win. He wants to be seen as the winner, even if the whole world loses in the process. And that's exactly what's happening. All right, so the natural gas situation is dire. And when you process natural gas, one of the byproducts that you get, by the way, is helium. Helium, second lightest element, right? Look at the table of elements. Helium, 30% of the global commercial production,

2:19:57 comes out of just Qatar, 30%. And it has to be hauled in special cryogenic containers. There is no alternative pipeline for helium, it doesn't exist. Helium cannot be substituted in semiconductor fabrication. It cannot be substituted in MRI machines, their cooling magnets, in arc welding, in rocket propellant pressurization. And also as you know, I own and run a mass spec food science lab. And most of my lab instruments require helium. Helium is used in the collision cell of the mass spec because of its unique physical properties. And so without helium, we can't test food. We can't test water. Without helium,

2:20:45 Nobody can make microchips. Have you looked into UV lithography equipment? And why helium is using that? Why it's critical, why it can't be replaced? So right now, you talk about the importance of Taiwan semiconductor. And you would lose most of their output if helium remains offline for much longer. And it is offline. It's my goodness. Spot prices of helium have already surged almost 100%. And that's going to continue if the straight stays closed. Helium will undergo a cascading effect of force majeure cancellations.

2:21:25 And so Samsung, which of course has promised all these microchip fabrication facilities in the United States. Samsung would be strongly impacted by this. They would have to start shutting down microchip facilities everywhere around the world, not just in the US but elsewhere as well. Taiwan Semiconductor, like I said, and other companies. So good luck with your microchip supply. Good luck with I don't know anything, frankly, that is made from microchips. Your GPU, your AI GPU, forget it, you're cooked, okay? And then we get to sulfur. Sulfur is one of the most consequential elements that is blocked by this closure of the Strait of Hormuz because of Trump's war, a war of choice, a war of aggression that he did not have to start. But because of this, sulfur is used

2:22:19 creating fertilizers as well as sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid is probably the single most important industrial chemical in the world. Did you know for example, you can't make car tires without the process of vulcanization, right? What does that use? It uses sulfur. So good luck getting car tires and truck tires and good luck with all your transportation infrastructure if you can't get sulfur. And sulfuric acid is used in phosphate production for farms and crops. And without sulfuric acid, there is a long cascade of industrial processes that absolutely crater and that they shut down modern industry. Your modern civilization cannot survive without the Strait of Hormuz being open.

2:25:11 All right, welcome back folks to the Alex Jones Show. I'm Mike Adams here filling in for the third hour today, continuing our analysis of the powerful and devastating repercussions of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. And look, If you need to learn more about the Strait of Hormuz, let me mention a free resource that my team made available here. As you know, I built a book creation platform. It's all free. It's called brightlearn.ai. And we have just released the free downloadable full-length audio book.

2:25:48 It's called Choke Point, the Strait of Hormuz. So if you just go to books.brightlearn.ai, you can download that book, click on audio books, you can download that audio book completely free. And there are also, go to books.brightlearn.ai, that'll bring up the actual audio books there. You can download them all for free, okay? This will tell you everything about the Strait of Hormuz and why it's so critical to understand. But if you're not familiar with We are going to live through the most difficult lockdowns and shutdowns, far worse than COVID, based on what has happened already. Yeah, click on audiobooks there, and then you're going to see it. Yeah, it's called Choke Point. There's an audiobooks tab, there you go. There it is, right there. So that's where you can download completely free.

2:26:37 So I've been using my data center to generate audio books, by the way. So that's just one of the ways that we give back to everybody. There's a bunch of books on survival and what have you, which seems incredibly important right now. But continuing my analysis here, We talked about sulfuric acid and why that's critical. But here's what a lot of people don't know. Yes, sulfuric acid is critical for phosphate fertilizers that feeds most of the world. But also it's necessary for battery cathode materials and mining leaching operations. So if you wanna mine things like copper and zinc or aluminum or other rare earths, you're gonna use sulfuric acid. Why? Because sulfuric acid

2:27:20 will strip the ions out of whatever element is in the rocks. It will put that into solution, into the acid. And then you can process that further to take those purified minerals out of the sulfuric acid solution. So without sulfuric acid, we don't have much of mining. And think about what happens if we don't have mining, aluminum, copper, zinc, I mean, nickel, tungsten, right? Cobalt that's necessary for lithium batteries, you name it. The world's battery manufacturing capability begins to suffer dramatically if we don't have sulfuric acid. So it's not just fertilizers, it's also commodities and metals. Now then, we got to get to urea.

2:28:08 49% of global urea seaborne exports are now at risk because of the closure of the straight hormones. Which as I said in the last segment, Trump cannot reopen by force nor by words. That has to be done with Iran's consent. So here we go, one ton of urea now costs US farmers the equivalent of 126 bushels of corn. Last year it was only 75 bushels of corn equivalent. If we don't get urea, which comes from natural gas and ammonia, by the way, if we don't get urea, then we're looking at about a collapse anywhere from one third to one half of the global nitrogenous fertilizer supply. Which means that whatever fertilizers that farmers can get right now, well, that's last year's supply chain. And they're lucky if they can get it now, a lot of farmers won't be able to get it. And if you look at crop yields and where this is going, corn,

2:29:10 It's the most nitrogen intensive crop in our world. So Midwest planting is happening now and urea prices are doubling, which means that farmers are going to grow a lot less corn. They're going to shift to crops like soybeans that don't use as much fertilizer. So now you're going to have a corn shortage, wheat, Also vulnerable to input shocks. So you're going to have reduced yields of wheat anywhere from 20 to 30%, most likely in 2026 harvest. Rice, Southeast Asia will be impacted by this. We already mentioned India. And if India doesn't grow a lot of food very cheaply, then a lot of people begin to starve in India and other nations in Southeast Asia.

2:29:59 sugar and soybeans also have some exposure, soybeans not as much. So you're gonna end up with a lot more soy and a lot less corn and wheat. Hope you like drinking your soy lattes cuz that's the only thing that's gonna grow with less nitrogen, okay? So good luck with that. All the soy boys out there will rejoice. All right, in addition to that, we've got ammonia and phosphate inputs. Those are also impacted. And now petrochemicals, metals and industrial supply. So polyethylene exports, 85% of the polyethylene exports out of the Middle East flow through the state of Hormuz. Polyethylene, what do you make out of that? Bottles, lids, barrels, anything. The PE is possibly the most useful polymer of all. And so if you're purchasing, even from Alex's store, if you're purchasing supplements,

2:30:55 If you're purchasing superfoods, if you're purchasing, you better get it now. Because we don't even know if we're gonna get the bottles. We don't know if we're gonna be able to get the lids, much less the food that goes into it. That's gonna go up in price. Whatever you can buy right now from alexjonestore.com, whatever you can buy right now, you should get it now because essentially you're paying last year's prices for it. Whereas you do not want to end up paying 2026 prices for it by the time the closure of the Strait of Hormuz makes its way through this system. And I don't have inside information that there's for sure going to run out of bottles. I'm just saying that overall the polyethylene global supply will be drastically impacted. It will affect the Alex Jones store. It'll affect my store. It'll affect retail. It'll affect everything you see at the grocery store.

2:31:48 So the effects of this are going to be widespread. There it is, plastic supply chain collateral damage in Iran war. And I know times are tight, but believe me when I say that whatever you can stockpile right now, you're getting it at the best price that you're gonna see for a long time to come, a long time. Shortages will elevate automotive components, synthetic rubber and consumer goods. And then we have copper and aluminum. Copper prices are already surging for reasons I've mentioned here. And aluminum, well, aluminum Bahrain has already declared force majeure. So there's no more aluminum coming out of that plant. And then there are scale backs at other aluminum plants that are happening in the Middle East and elsewhere. Pharmaceuticals, also 47% of generic prescriptions come out of India.

2:32:44 Not that I'm a fan of prescription medications, but the straight provides the energy that India uses to manufacture the pharmaceuticals. So we're gonna start seeing shortages of any kind of generic drugs and many other things. A lot of things come out of India, for example, turmeric, right? So even from the Alice Jones store, The turmeric, India is the largest global grower of turmeric. And even if you don't get it from turmeric, India's shortage of it will affect the global supply. So it's gonna get even worse if the Suez Canal gets closed off because of the Houthis harassing ships at that choke point in the Red Sea. So now we're talking about, and they promised to do that by the way, in solidarity with Iran.

2:33:36 If that gets blocked, if ships can't traverse the Suez Canal, then my goodness, now we're talking about a real domestic, I mean global crisis. Yeah, PU resin prices skyrocketing there, that's exactly right. So I get turmeric from India and that may not be possible after a period of time. Who knows? As long as this strait stays closed, I'm saying the second and third order effects here are going to be almost unimaginable. So all right, let's talk about force majeure. I'm going to give you a list of the companies that have already declared force majeure. Qatar Energy, as I mentioned, there goes 20% of the world's natural gas. Kuwait Petroleum Corporation, well, can't guarantee shipments. Babco Energies, they're down, declared after a drone strike on one of the refinery complexes.

2:34:39 Shell, LNG trading, declared force majeure because of course, they can't deliver on the commitments of LNG. Total Energies, LNG, OQ, Oman trading, SABIC, Agri Nutrients, S-A-B-I-C, fertilizer shipments to South America and to Asia. Force majeure, you may have ordered the fertilizer, you may have put a down payment on it, you're not gonna get it. Aluminum, Bahrain, Saudi Aramco declared force majeure. There's a major company, a major presence in the Middle East. Refinery operations shut down. ADNOC from the UAE, ADNOC from the UAE, refinery operations also shut down. Katalum, that's aluminum production out of Qatar. Petrochemical Corp in Singapore has had to declare force majeure. Chandra Asri Petrochemical out of Indonesia force majeure.

2:35:42 Yochun NCC in South Korea. Force Majeure on NAPTHA cracker operations. That's not a racial slur, that's a process for NAPTHA. Astrochemicals, South Korea. Cracker is only running at 50% capacity. Sumitomo Corporation in Japan. Force Majeure. The fifth Asian chemical company in a single week. Why? No NAPTHA. Oh. And in India, there's also other force majeures taking place here as well. Other companies impacted by this. The bottom line is the situation is dire. And unless this gets back online, you are not going to see Western civilization function. Here's the reality of this. We have built a civilization on a pipeline that was always vulnerable, but it only functioned with the consent of Iran.

2:36:43 Iran, before Trump launched this war on Iran, Iran wasn't in a position to have, let's say, to have goodwill from much of the rest of the world if it initiated a war. In other words, if Iran had invoked strikes on US military bases in the UAE or Qatar or Saudi Arabia, etc. If Iran had initiated that, then Iran would have been globally condemned, obviously. But when Trump launched the attack and initiated it, and then Iran responded to it, now there's a lot more sympathy for Iran around the world. Because Iran is the victim of a war of aggression that Trump launched. Trump initiated it, despite the fact that he says, Iran has been at war with us for 47 years. And I think he said that Joe Biden or Barack Obama started

2:37:40 the war with Iran 47 years ago or so. It didn't make any sense. I don't know what he was trying to say. Didn't make any sense. But the truth is that the US initiated this war, not Iran. Iran was negotiating in good faith, even as the US was negotiating in bad faith. And thus, when Trump initiated this, War of aggression this illegal undeclared war of aggression against Iran then when Iran retaliated Against the Gulf state nations now a lot of the world looks at that and says well can't blame them Can't blame them because they were attacked first now Iran has been put in a position by Trump where Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz and will continue to harass ships until

2:38:29 Iran has offered a deal that allows it to meet its terms. And that wasn't possible before Trump attacked Iran. So in essence, Trump fell into a trap of putting Iran into arguably one of the most powerful positions in the entire world, where Iran has the balls of Western civilization in its grip and it's squeezing. And all these Western countries, many of them I just mentioned from Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Australia, US, Canada, the UK, France, all of them. They're going to be headed for industrial and energy collapse if the strait stays closed. Now, the US is more resilient than the other countries because the US has its own domestic energy supply. Thank goodness for that, we do need domestic energy.

2:39:17 But there will be so much pressure on the cost or the price of those commodities, and oil is priced globally. It means that American consumers are going to end up paying much more for domestic oil, even though it's our own oil. The prices are going to go through the roof. Oil could easily hit 200, 250, even $300 a barrel if this closure continues to exist. And that's exactly the path that we are on right now. So, in summary, we built a civilization on a supply chain that now is in the hands of someone that we made into an enemy, which is Iran. We made them into an enemy. And at the same time, Trump through his punitive tariff operations, he turned other allies into potential enemies as well. He punished India. He put a 50% tariff on India saying you can't buy oil from Russia.

2:40:17 The same oil that Trump now says, you're allowed to buy oil from Russia because I changed my mind. Because now there's a global oil shortage because I started this war with Iran. So now Russian oil is okay, but a few months ago you get punished for buying Russian oil. See, there's no consistency, there's no plan, there's no foresight in this. The White House says, well, we considered the implications of the Strait of Hormuz. No, you didn't. Or if you're admitting that you did, then you knew you were going to put the American people and all of our allies through this economic hell on a global scale. You knew that and you did it anyway, that's even worse than not knowing.

2:40:58 It's more innocent to say we didn't know, we didn't consider these things. At least that's understandable. If you did consider these things and you did it anyway, then you thrust the world into a horrific situation that will impact billions of people, but will more strongly impact, in fact, the United States and its allies. And the ultimate upshot of this is that number one, the US is going to be driven out of the Middle East. Iran has already destroyed most of the military bases in the Arab Gulf states there, including the Fifth Fleet headquarters. It's rubble or largely rubble at this point. And secondly, the petrodollar is no longer carrying the weight that it once did. So all these nations around the world that had relied on the US for protection, which includes Taiwan, by the way, and included Qatar and included the UAE, etc.

2:41:52 What's their conclusion now? Well, the US can't protect us. And South Korea is realizing, hey, when the US wants to, they're gonna come take our air defense systems away and hand them over to Israel to help defend Israel. And then what are we gonna do here if there's a war with North Korea, right? So everywhere around the world, the message is very clear. that the United States of America cannot and will not protect you. And that having a US military base in your country only makes you a target from Iran or perhaps some other country that is very capable of overpowering the US military. In doing this, Trump has shattered

2:42:34 Decades of diplomatic efforts that tried to establish US leverage in the Middle East. Leverage over energy, leverage against Iran, and the presumption of US projection of power through its naval dominance. And that presumption is what backed the US dollar. Because the US dollar isn't backed by anything else at all. It's not backed by gold or silver or oil or anything other than basically the threat of force largely by the US Navy and its aircraft carriers. The very same aircraft carriers that are limping out of the region now, one of them set on fire. The Ford was set on fire.

2:43:14 apparently by its own sailors who have to now sleep on the floors and tables. And it's basically not battle worthy at this point. And besides, they're giant floating targets anyway. So all of that has been shattered. So what does that mean for the future of the petrodollar? It means the petrodollar is toast. It means we are now witnessing the beginning of the end of the American empire that we have all known for our entire lives. It's over. Because it relied on forcing everybody around the world to use the dollar because if you don't, we're gonna bomb you, we're gonna kill you, we're gonna assassinate you, etc. Iran just showed that if you take a stand and say no and hold your ground, the US military is just a paper tiger. Can't actually control the state of Hormuz, begging other countries to come in and help save our Navy. And other countries are saying no.

2:44:06 And actually, years earlier, Russia arrived at the same conclusion. Russia said no, because of course, the West wanted to pillage Russia, wanted to overthrow Putin and basically rob that country of its natural resources. Russia is sitting on the largest reserves of energy of any country in the world. Russia is massive. It's a massive, you know, geopolitical state, sitting on a massive supply of energy, and also aluminum and fertilizer, all kinds of other things. We wanted to steal all of that, that was evident from US leaders. They said we want to destroy Russia and go in and take all their energy, pillage the country. That's been the plan for Iran all along. We want to overthrow their leadership and go in and pillage their country. And now Russia and Iran have said no, we won't let you do that.

2:44:59 We don't care how much you try to bomb us. We don't care how many soldiers you throw at us via Ukraine. We don't care. And yes, they're showing a story there. Will the Iran war trigger a dollar crisis? Absolutely it will. Because folks, wish we had more time. The force majeure that has been declared that I just mentioned, that is going to spiral into the financial sector. And we're already seeing record defaults in private equity, private credit is hitting massive defaults right now. We're already seeing limits on withdrawals from lots of financial organizations, BlackRock included and others. This is going to cascade through the system. And because the Western financial system is already highly leveraged with derivatives and money backed by nothing, and a lot of currency printing that will cause continued devaluation of the dollar.

2:45:56 Then where we're going to end up here is in a cascading financial collapse of the Western banking system and Western currencies. Japan is already on the brink of a currency collapse. The EU also in deep trouble right now and the dollar, although it may be the most resilient, it doesn't have permanency in this world without the continued threat of force projection by the US Navy and that's been shattered as well. The bottom line of where all this is going, I'm sorry to say, I didn't want this. I opposed the war from the very start. I mean, before it started, I was saying don't do this. This is a bad idea. But the American people are going to end up impoverished. The American people are going to lose their ability to afford food in many cases. They're going to lose many of their investments. We will see bank failures. We will see bank bail ins. And we will see the great taking accelerate.

2:46:55 And people will lose everything that they once worked for and saved. And as all of this is happening, Trump will never take the blame for it. He will blame someone else. He will say, it's Russia's fault, it's Iran's fault, it's whoever's fault other than himself, even though he made the call. So when you are poor and starving and homeless because you can't afford rent, Trump will tell you it's your fault cuz you didn't support his war. Think about that. That's how crazy it's actually getting here. So look, what can you do? What can you do to insulate yourself from all of this as much as possible? Number one, I already mentioned, stockpile some food if you can. Learn to grow food, become as self-reliant as possible. Get off the grid as much as you can.

2:47:45 And in my opinion, although don't take this as financial advice, I think you need to get out of the banking system. Whether that means gold and silver or private crypto, whatever is your choice, that's up to you. That's your research, that's your decision. But if you stay in the banking system with a lot of excess cash, if you stay in the stock market, if you stay in bonds, in my opinion, you're gonna get decimated as this wave continues to accelerate. These are going to be the most dire consequences that Western civilization has ever felt. And sadly, we have an incomprehensible president right now who is absolutely committed to the path of total economic destruction of the United States of America. That's just a fact. And he's doing it in order to appease a foreign nation. He's putting Israel first and throwing America under the bus. And if he cannot reverse course on this, then in my opinion,

2:48:43 He needs to be removed from power through impeachment or 25th Amendment or some other process. Otherwise, the American people will suffer drastically for years to come. And we could end up in a situation of domestic civil revolts, mass hunger, food insecurity, even kinetic uprisings in certain areas of the country, especially the blue cities, for example. So let us pray that that doesn't happen. Let us pray that Trump comes to his senses and if he doesn't, we need somebody else at the home. Cuz this is not working. What he's doing is not working. But those are my conclusions and my opinions. And I say God bless America. I want America to do well, but we're on a bad track right now. So thank you for watching. I'm Mike Adams here on the Alex Jones Show.

2:53:32 Mike, I'm listening to you as I drive. Your analysis is dead on and I'm learning a lot. Can't wait till Michael Yan is on Thursday. He's an expert, as you know, on global choke points for predicting this. But if you look at the globalist above Trump, obviously he's been manipulated in a useful tool here. Just like Lutnick, microcosm's son, running his company bet against the tariffs that Lutnick wrote for the billions in insurance money. The globalists have wanted a great reset. They want a global crash. And so they released COVID. to derail Trump's last administration. Now, this war is definitely that, I predicted it. So we need to study all the investments that the insiders have made at the White House and really expose that because there's no doubt that the higher-ups knew what was happening. They were warned by Tulsi Gabbard and by Joe Kent and others in the months and weeks before.

2:54:23 So how do we get that message out to the American people and to Trump and pull back from this, something that was designed to empower Israel, the greater Israel, but basically implode the United States in the end, which is part of Israel's larger plan, their own admissions. Mike Adams, thanks for hosting. Please give me your take. All right, thank you Alex for that question and you're exactly right. So this is being engineered as a great taking. So remember that all these commodities will cascade into the financial reset and a financial collapse that will cause most Americans to lose some significant portion. But who gains that? It's those who are positioned to take advantage of the financial collapse situations like what George Soros did to the UK years ago.

2:55:09 Somebody profits from a financial collapse or even a currency collapse. And what I'm saying to people at a grassroots level is there are methods to avoid getting severely harmed. There are ways to avoid losing your life savings in that. That's one level. So, gold and silver, maybe private crypto, etc., or just owning land, owning actual physical things like diesel fuel will become extremely valuable. But to answer Alex's question at the higher level, yeah, this is engineered and it's sad that Trump fell into it. I think Trump was given bad intelligence. Obviously, it was crafted to deceive him, to say that Iran was an imminent threat when clearly it wasn't.

2:55:52 Joe Kent has confirmed that with his resignation letter today. Tulsi Gabbard has also previously confirmed that as well. Iran never posed an imminent threat to the continental United States. But Israel and other globalist sources, of course, they fabricated intelligence and so they managed to convince Trump that he had to order this attack. So I think, Alex, what we're suffering from here is that Trump has once again allowed himself to be surrounded by bad faith actors who are insulating him from reality. And I think Robert Barnes would agree with this as well, that his inner circle doesn't let him interact with the real world or what used to be MAGA.

2:56:30 Or, go on social media. Instead, Trump is fed a specific diet of bad information that says, Trump, you're the hero, keep bombing, it's gonna make you the most popular president ever, which hasn't worked out. And secondly, that if you don't destroy Iran, that we're all gonna be destroyed within a matter of weeks. But Israel's been saying that for decades. It's the same claim decade after decade. So yeah, this is a giant trap. Trump fell into it. He went along with it. He didn't have to. He made a choice to order this war. And as a result, now we are all about to fall into a trap that has been set by the globalists for massive, massive confiscation of financial assets.

2:57:18 And the level of destruction here, I mean, I wish I could get Aaron Day on too to talk about CBDCs. Because the level of destruction here is going to, people are going to panic into the CBDCs in order to get government bailouts. That's what's gonna happen. And then they're gonna roll out the surveillance grid with the CBDCs. Hey, you're gonna get this free money to help you with your food bills because food prices have doubled. But you're gonna have to sign up for the CBDC that tracks and monitors everywhere that you spend your money. And then if you post something that we don't like on social media, then you'll be locked out of your wallet and you won't be able to buy groceries. That's where this is going. So it's all been engineered, Alex is right. It's all been engineered from the globalist level to trap people in a system of total enslavement. And the big picture, which I'll talk about on Thursday, is this is a human replacement agenda for the rise of the AI robots to replace human cognition and human labor. Ultimately, this is mass culling of humans on planet Earth, massive depopulation.

2:58:17 So there you go. Thanks for the question. And stay tuned, folks, one minute break and then the show continues. All right, good morning, Goyim. Welcome back to InfoWars. My name is Elijah Schaefer. You might know me as the host of Slightly Offensive on RIF TV, and it's an absolutely fire afternoon. The news cycle is basically just riding itself. I mean, on one hand, you have Trump invoking the Holocaust. We're here, people. Look, I hate this idea of calling people anti-Semitic who are against this war in Iran, because technically the Persians are Aryans, number one, and the Israelis are not even actually real Jews. The Palestinians are Semites too, and so if you're anti-Semitic, then you're both anti-Palestine, anti 30% of Israel. So we've got to cut the crap here. There's a video posted today by AF Post, who's pretty reliable. They posted a clip of Trump

2:59:09 And the funny thing is he's talking and he says something insane. We are at the level of disinformation. We are at the level of manipulation that we are no longer telling people we won. We're no longer telling people that this is mission accomplished soldier like George Bush said. Listen to this video. Trump legitimately starts saying, look, hey, actually Iran is like Hitler for real. Iran is like Hitler, which of course is supposed to make you think that like, yeah, remember the Holocaust? We gotta go kill some brown kids in Iran surrounded by mountains, doesn't affect you in any way because, well, the Holocaust. Listen to this video, if we could play it here for a moment. And I want you to listen carefully exactly what he's saying. We're gonna break it down in just a moment. Let's play it. With Iran, and they all acknowledge that Iran can't have a nuclear weapon. You yourself say, these are horrendous people.

3:00:03 These are the worst people and going back to Hitler, right? Going back to Hitler. These are the worst people. That's a long time ago. And there's been nothing close. Every problem, every so many deaths, 90% of the people that got blown up by landmines, the landmines, they loved them. You know, Solomony, we killed him. If we didn't it might be a different story because he was a horrible person, but he was a very powerful person and leader smart But we killed him if we didn't I think you'd have it I did but I think would have maybe a different situation Wow Very nice Trump

3:00:42 You're sitting there in your house, Goyim, just walking around saying, I can't afford my food. And just like that loud announcement they used to play in the forest there in Vietnam, you guys remember that? That girl that would speak English, she would say, hello, you are a bad guy, GI. Your country don't love you, GI. your country don't love you, GI. You will die in the jungle, GI. And we used to laugh at that stuff, be like, all the communists, the propaganda, they think we're stupid. We're white Americans, we're a great country, we're a fantastic nation. We beat World War I, we beat World War II. And you thought this is the propaganda from illegitimate regimes. And now

3:01:25 X in the mainstream media right now in terms of the Iran war, essentially is just mirroring Vietnamese propaganda. And now you get the same thing. Except now it's not in a Asian voice and they're not directing the GI. They're talking to you, the goyim, the cattle, and they're basically saying, they're like, yeah, you want to go to a war in Iran, don't you goyim? You love seeing your kids die, don't you goyim? You love dying in the deserts of the Middle East, don't you goyim? Don't worry about your high gas prices, goyim. Your government loves you, goyim. And at the same time, I'm asking you,

3:02:02 This revisionist history BS, where all Americans have been taught to think of our history as we had a revolution. And then there was some civil war where we ended racism. Let's not talk about those hundreds of years of nation building, where white men built the country, Christian men. Let's skip all that stuff. Let's go right to the fact that we were racist, you racist white hypocrite. And then they jump, what happens next? World War I happened. We talk a little bit about Franz Ferdinand or whatever it is that goes out there. And then we just talk about World War II. And then World War II is what, 70, 80, some people say 97 million people killed.

3:02:40 But no, we're not allowed to talk about the white people that died. We're not allowed to talk about the North African people that died. We're not allowed to talk about Manchuria and Japan and their experiments. Oh, sushi. That's what we think of Japan today, even though they were objectively worse than Hitler in a lot of ways. They're the cute little dancing weirdos. We got to focus on one part of World War II. And that's Hitler, guys, because the Jews were targeted. Yeah, okay, so what? Tens of millions of white people died? Those are white people. And you would think, well, we would care about white people dying in America or the history of dying, if what?

3:03:17 We would care about it if we were a white nation, and we're not. We're multicultural. So then you would think, okay, well, then what would we care about World War II? We'd care about all the people that died. We would think about the brown people that died, the black Americans that died, the white Americans that died. But no, we don't care about anybody else in World War II except for the true victims of the world. the Israeli Jews who were the victims of the Holocaust. We were always just such victims of the entire history. And now because we were victims of World War II, we got to kill all the brown kids and you got to pay for it, Goyim. They're going, look, I don't care. You don't have to be an anti-Semite to look at that and call that baloney. That's just absolutely stupid. And it seems like our government

3:03:59 cares so much more about their nation than they do our own. Now the rumors have been out, right? Netanyahu died, Netanyahu died, Netanyahu died. Well, Mike Huckabee, I don't know if we watched it earlier, released this video. He was with Mike Huckabee. And it feels like we're in a simulation here where he proves that he's not dead. And it's like, Right now the American people are more interested in what's going on with Netanyahu than with Trump. Why? Because we know he's the one that's actually in power. And we know that because the only thing that matters in our history is what's happened to them. American history is Jewish history. American politics is Jewish politics. MAGA equals Zionism. And if you're not a Zionist, then you're not MAGA. Because Trump said Mark Levin

3:04:43 Ben Shapiro is MAGA. The guy who wrote the op-ed in 2005. This has been over 21 freaking years, man, that Ben Shapiro has been conniving, sniveling, stacking coins up with superglue to make his bed frame. Here it's made out of gold. Some people say that it literally has four skins on the tassels. I don't know if that's true. But the truth is, is look, check this out, Netanyahu's alive. Hell yeah, America has still got their president, guys. Watch this. Prime Minister, I want you to know the president asked me to come and make sure you were okay. Yes, Mike. Yes, I'm alive. I checked that and I'm happy to see that but he wanted to make sure because you know you guys get along too well. I know and we shake hands with five fingers in each hand. You know, but I have to tell you I'm alive but I have this card. Oh. And yeah, don't read it.

3:05:40 So it's a punch card. Today I raised two names on the punch cards and you see how many more to go on this batch. You know what the good news is? My name is not on the punch card. Your name is on the list of the good, good guys. Thank you. And what the President and the U.S. forces are doing is incredible. We're very proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with them. And getting rid of these lunatics who would like to develop nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them to every American city, after wiping out Israel, they ain't gonna do that. We're wiping them out. A lot of it. Thank you, Mr. Prime Minister. Good to see you. Thank you, Mike. Thanks. Take care. Thank you.

3:06:32 Netanyahu couldn't just come out and say he was alive. He reminds the American public, I've got the punch card, baby. I have the names of the people that we're gonna kill. And the fact is, if you meet a friend and they're like, I just wanna remind you today, you're not on my list of people I'm gonna murder. I don't feel that's a very good friendship. If your friends have to remind you, hey, by the way, every time you meet, by the way, check out this list. You're still not on my list of people I'm going to murder. Netanyahu isn't being friendly. He's telling Mike Huckabee, Keep sucking me dry. Because I've heard that Netanyahu is getting tired of Lindsey Graham's lips. You know what I mean? Lindsey Graham has been his side chick for the last, what, 15, 20 years since Netanyahu addressed the Security Council at the UN asking in 95 for the US to invade Iran. Now, 2004, Pat Buchanan wrote his book, Where the Right Went Wrong,

3:07:23 directly predicting that the coalition forces in the neocon and the Zionist establishment, they didn't want to invade Afghanistan necessarily. They didn't care about Iraq. They didn't care about Libya. They didn't care about Egypt. They didn't care about Syria. They didn't care about Yemen or Oman. What they wanted was the crown jewel. And that was Iran. He said they are not going to let it go away. You thought that Bush was the end of the neocon establishment? Yeah, well, guess what? The neocons are like cockroaches. They don't die. And the problem with this is I'm not the only one noticing this. Now, if you're around here, people say all types of things. So people like myself and Nick Fuentes and Alex Jones, some people go after Candace or others. They say they lie and she comes with receipts. And then they don't know what to say about Charlie Kirk, so they kill him.

3:08:14 They tried to assassinate Nick Fuentes, by the way, and his assassin was murdered or killed, I should say, by police. Not murdered. He was killed, right? They tried to kill him. They're like, why did you kill Nick first? Well, they tried to kill Nick. And recently, the FBI actually is working with an informant in my company who bugged my office. He was a friend of mine, a family member. And this is public record domain. I'm going to trial the end of the year against the FBI director's girlfriend in this law fair. Think of like the Sandy Hook stuff or the current law fair going on with InfoWars. They've got me in these multi-million dollar lawsuits, secretly recording me, wiretapping me. This isn't the first time. And what are they doing? They're exploiting my life, exploiting my personal life, blackmailing me, blackmailing my friends. And guess what?

3:09:03 Charlie Kirk didn't die for nothing. I'm gonna make sure of that. They're not gonna bully the rest of us. I'd rather be on Netanyahu's punch card than to ever get on my knees like Lindsey Graham does willingly. The only reason why Lindsey Graham has a short haircut is because he was tired of pulling his hair back, putting in a ponytail before he slopped up Netanyahu's sloppy seconds. Who was sucking Netanyahu off first? Yeah, it was Trump. I believe Trump actually might actually secretly be Jewish. And it's kind of weird because his brother went to a Jewish fraternity, which is very weird. And then Mark Levin called Trump the first Jewish president and Trump didn't really rebuttal it. He actually hugged him and said, that's great. Now, why does that matter? It matters because this is a Christian nation. Yeah, we have Jewish people here. If you're Jewish and you watch the show, we're not against you. We're not inherently against other religions. We don't hate Muslims existing peacefully.

3:09:55 But someone like Joe Kent, let's bring this up, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Joe Kent, he's been on my show. He's a nice guy. People say he's a Peter Thiel construct, but that's not, it's besides the point. Joe Kent came out and said, look, I'm done with this too. People at the government level are saying, I came to serve the United States not to leave. Check out this tweet. He said, after much reflection, I've decided to resign. from my position as the director of the National Counterterrorism Center effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation. And it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under POTUS and DNI Gabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America. Yeah, and may he bless America.

3:10:47 Last time I was in Austin, down in the InfoWars studios, we're up here in Dallas right now at the Rift Studios. We're starting back up our stuff. Alex is amazing, right? I respect the hell out of him. Alex helped me get into my career about a decade ago, was the first big voice that amplified me. I'll always say that on the show. He's the real deal. But last time I was at the studio, I remember Alex was sitting there and probably the first time Alex and I hung out, you know, sober, but he's doing good. Now he's healthy, you know, we're good for him. Me too, by the way. Um, so we're both doing a lot better cause you gotta be sharp when you're fighting these people. These are degenerates. These are pedophiles. These are satanic elite. These are Zionists. These are people who hate you. And Alex was sitting there and he looked at me like this. He's like, Hey,

3:11:31 Let's not talk about Israel. I was like, I didn't say I was going to talk about Israel. He's like, yeah, we're not talking about that today. Because I told him, and I was like, OK, fine. Then he comes on my show a couple of months later, and I call him out. I'm like, Alex, as a friend, by the way, as a friend, in a loving way, I'm like, Alex, I think you have PTSD from the Sandy Hook stuff. Kind of afraid to tell people the truth right now about that one topic because you know they're going to crush you. Now, Alex and myself, we did get crushed. People do crush us for telling the truth. But here's the craziest thing. They were able to do that in the past because there's maybe just a few select individuals in the commentator class talking about these topics. But now you have everybody talking about the elephant in the room. Why is it that Israel controls our foreign policy? Why is it that you could be deported from the United States for speaking out against the Zionist objectives and get deported? Why is it easier to get deported

3:12:26 for being a student joining a protest against the war in Gaza than it is to get deported for being a murderer. These are the questions you got to ask yourself. And the real reason why is, Joe Kent says, look, I didn't sign up to serve the United States of Israel, okay? And it's funny, I didn't sign up for this. Well, I didn't sign up for it either, Joe. Joe Kent's nice. And I saw Alex the last few days just being like, look, this is horrible. And I saw him ripping and changing and showing his true colors like, look, we are the Zionist States of America, the United Zionist Federation of America. And I wanna jump down here on this block. I got a screenshot towards the bottom here that says, I was wrong to vote for Trump. And I'm gonna explain that to you guys. I voted for him three times in three different elections. Media Matters put up an article. I was on a show recently with the host of America First, Nick Fuentes.

3:13:20 And he took a pretty controversial approach the last election. And I spoke to him on the phone and he was like, why are you telling your audience to vote for Trump? He's gonna get us in a war with Iran. And I talked to Alex about it. I talked to a lot of people about it and we were convinced like Trump said no, he's not gonna do that. Jadie Vance and Trump dozens and dozens and dozens of times said, yeah, no, no, well, we're not gonna do that. That's out of bounds. And I'm stupid. I'm a stupid retard. I'm not gonna speak for Alex, but Alex and I were wrong. A lot of people were wrong. And Nick Fuentes was right about that. And that people owe an apology to be completely honest. They told me I just got a call right now and the apology department is overnighting a couple apology cards. I think we need a few dozen million to pass out in the Nick Fuentes was right again cards.

3:14:13 And that just shows you a lot of our blindness as commentators and our innocence of still trusting in institutions. No more. I'm done with the institutions. Nick, yeah, I admitted to him. I said I was wrong and Media Matters is like, what the hell? You admitted that you shouldn't have voted for Trump. And you know what? I always say, look, he did drop my espionage wiretapping investigation. I was under investigation from wiretapping for taking pictures of sensitive documents in Nancy Pelosi's office on January 6th. I was being investigated. I had my bank records taken, my phone records taken. By the FBI, I was being tracked and followed. The CNN investigation team calling my old secretaries at church to get any information they could. Why? Because of course, my footage exposed that Ray Epps started the violence. And the FBI didn't like that. And I've been on their hit list for a while. Alex has been on their hit list even longer. But the problem is, is right now, everyone's on their hit list. Nobody at all

3:15:12 is innocent or beyond the ability to be taken down. And it's game time, baby. When Joe Kent, Peter Thiel-Karnstruck says I'm out, this isn't good. This is extremely bad. And you would say, well, what does the Trump administration say to something like that? Did they wake up and just say, Wow, maybe the America's really mad. Maybe we should just stop spending billions and billions of dollars bombing a country that has no point of being bombed right now. Well, no, look what Levitt said. Caroline Levitt, she should stay back in the beauty pageants. You and Erica Kirk need to get back on the stage in bikinis or something like that and stop yip yapping telling us what to do.

3:16:00 Feed your family, you know what I mean? She said there are many false claims in this letter, but let me address one specifically that Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation. This is the same false claim that Democrats and some in the liberal media have been repeating over and over. As President Trump has clearly and explicitly stated, he had strong and compelling evidence that Iran was going to attack the United States first. The evidence was compiled from many sources and factors. President Trump would never make the decision to deploy military assets against a foreign adversary in a vacuum. Iran is the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism. The Iranian regime is evil. It proudly killed Americans, waged war against our country, and openly threatened us all the way up to the launch of Operation Epic Fury.

3:16:43 Iran was aggressively expanding their short-range ballistic missiles to combine with their naval assets to give themselves immunity. Meaning they would have a degree of capabilities that would give them immunity to hold us and the rest of the world hostage. Oh, like they're doing right now? Anyways. The regime aimed to use ballistic missiles as a shield to continue achieving their ultimate goal of nuclear weapons. The president through his top negotiators gave the regime every single possible opportunity to abandon this unacceptable course by permanently giving up their nuclear ambitions in exchange for sanctions reliefs, free nuclear fuel and potential economic partnerships with our country. But they would not say yes to peace because obtaining nuclear weapons was their fundamental goal. President Trump ultimately made this determination that a joint attack with Israel would greatly reduce the risk to American lives. We can end that there. So Caroline Levitt's calling Joe Kent a liar. She's calling him a liar.

3:17:31 She's saying they were a threat to us. Okay, by who? What did Trump say? Who told him they were a threat? Jared Kushner, a Jewish man, who probably also backed it up, they don't have the evidence. Ivanka Trump, who converted to Judaism. So now Trump has these Jewish children that are giving him orders. He's got this Jewish associated brother giving him orders. He's got these Jewish donors, Mary Madoson and the like, who he said, if you take their money, You can't be trusted in 2016. And he said, Marco Rubio, he's a liar, you can't trust him. Then Trump takes 100 million from Miriam Adelson, decides to go to war with Iran. And who's the Secretary of State advising Trump about the surety of going into that place? Marco Rubio, lying Marco Rubio. What the hell happened, Trump? Are you really MAGA or is your base turning on you because you've turned your backs on us?

3:18:27 And these idiots, these grifters, these pathetic deceptive rats, Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, the rest of the neocon establishment, Shabos Kestenbaum. Shabos Kestenbaum, the hell name is that brother? Even if I was trying to be anti-Semitic, I couldn't come up with a more stereotypical name for a traitor to the United States. You sick and disgusting disease ridden rats. Capital letters RAT. It's like Jordan Peterson said to Nick Fuentes, oh my gosh. He's like high on Benzos, Papa Klonas of Pam, accept $20 million from Ben Shapiro, sit back at a two-tone student like, well, you know, you gotta make your bed, bucko. You know, down there, it's kind of crazy because everybody who opposes this war is just a rat. Hey, go to rehab, Jordan. I hope you do.

3:19:19 should try to get sober like Alex and I did because benzos are nice, but the war in Iran is going on, you know about that one? Yeah, the war in Iran is going on and Khlonazabim ain't gonna take the pain of a multi trillion dollar extended proxy cold war. I'm sick of this. And Dan Wright, the rest of America is too. This is not an anti-Semitic decision. This is a pro-America decision. I want to reference one or two more things. If we can bring up the tweet here about Levitt, the proof Levitt was a liar. Levitt said that Iran was a threat. These people can't keep their story straight. Levitt said just the other day this post and story should be immediately retracted by ABC. They wrote this based on one email that was sent to local law enforcement. I think this was talking about the attack on California. She says, to be clear,

3:23:18 mess and conundrum that's happened with this Iran war with Joe Kent, the director of the Counterterrorism Center, resigning, calling this recent intrusion to Iran absolutely unacceptable. Caroline Livet, the spokesperson for Trump, who probably would do better as a bikini model, to be honest. I mean, she is hot, but we really want hot women running our country. The whole reason why our founding fathers put an age limit On the office is so that a bunch of sims didn't vote 19 year old only fans models to be the president and senators. We would have i'm sure we're like that as guys Uh, but I guess we got something kind of close anna paulina luna. She has an underwear model We have underwear models think about that for a second Isn't that weird you can go look at one of our congresswomen who's very pro-war iran in her underwear But it's not because it got leaked right usually

3:24:04 If a congressperson had pictures when they're in their underwear or naked or something was because it got leaked, it was blackmail. In 2026, we just got hot chicks posting thirst traps and then getting into office. The hell is going on people? Listen to me, we should go to war with Iran anyways, here's my boobs. By the way, Anna, I don't want to see your boobs. Lindsey Graham's already got a nice enough set, okay? He's a chunky monkey. We all love the way that he serves the foreign state. Mike Huckabee, the rest of them, it's sick. And you know what, you would ask yourself, with all of this, if the director of the counterterrorism center, if every single major patriot that fought for Trump is defecting because we're realizing that we are loyal to the Constitution. Sorry, Trump.

3:24:51 We're loyal to our constitution. We're not loyal to you. And if you defect from the constitution, you're out, bud. And now the influencers, there's a class of influencers that are still on board with this. One of those individuals, his name is Sean Farage. It doesn't matter. Owen Schroeder, a good friend of mine, also a previous host here at InfoWars, put out a really simple tweet yesterday. If we could bring this up. He says, it was 95 degrees in Austin yesterday. It's 45 degrees now. Very, very, very, very controversial statement. Wow, Owen, how could you do that? How dare you? Can we spin this to make you seem stupid? Well, Sean did, a very pro-Trump individual. Owen is not taking a pro-Iran war stance. So instead of disproving anything that Owen said about the Iran war, Sean Farage takes this tweet.

3:25:37 It says apparently Owen Schroeder just discovered what a cold front is. Cold fronts are obviously an Israeli Psyop guys. Okay, first of all, they are. Everybody knows that every time it gets cold and you can't go outside, The Jews are to blame. No, I'm totally joking, okay? That's the point. I have stubbed my toe and blamed the Jews before, but it didn't get me anywhere. At a certain point, you have to realize you can't just blame the Jews for everything. You could, it's possible, it connects in some way, but it's lazy, it's immature, it's not really the most productive or constructive way to win the masses. This whole Wignatt Let's all just wear swastikas and be like Ryan Gosling in that white supremacist movie and SIG Heil Hitler or whatever. It's like that's not gonna do anything. That's not gonna win people over. The reality is you gotta be honest with the public. You gotta tell them Donald J Trump is not the 47th president of the United States.

3:26:33 Benjamin Netanyahu is and people like Sean Farage are so mad that some of us still have decency and credibility to say, look, I did vote for Trump. I told people to vote for him. But hey, guess what? This is an Israeli psyop. So what do they always do? Here's what they do to discredit us. You just tell people like Owen did what the temperature is in the room. And they're like, oh, is that an Israeli psyop too? And the answer is yes. Cold temperatures are a Jewish psyop. No, Sean, you freaking idiot. Sometimes when we say something is Israeli psyop, we hold it off for things that actually are. And the Iran war is an Israeli psyop. If you are believing that the Iran war is being won right now, you are in a psyop. If you believe that we already won the war in Iran, you have been psyop. If you believe Donald Trump controls our country, you have been psyoped. Because I'm gonna tell you this, Trump admitted himself that the reason why we invaded Iran was two reasons.

3:27:28 One of the reasons was that Jared Kushner told him that they were gonna build 10 nukes. Bill O'Reilly backed it up on Glenn Beck show on Blaze TV. Where do you get your information from in Texas? Do you get it from Blaze TV, Mark Levin and Glenn Beck? People who begged Glenn got on his knees and begged BB Net and Yahoo for citizenship. What the hell, mate? You got a problem. You got to trust real sources out of Austin, InfoWars. We're kicking back. Think about this. We've got RIF TV in Dallas, InfoWars in Austin. Is it that all of us are just switching up on Trump? Or is it maybe that the truth is growing and people like Sean Farage are getting paid? Guys, I've been working with the GOP as a lobbyist. I've been working with the GOP as an influencing marketer. I've done a lot of jobs in the background. I'm going to tell you how this works.

3:28:18 The same people that still support Trump today, the people that are supporting the war are being paid by influencer marketing agencies, NGOs and nonprofits. And I'd like to give you a little insight into the background. I'm not gonna violate my NDAs, I'm not gonna get into another lawsuit, but it's fair enough to tell you how it works. The way that it works and the way that they drum up support on X, there are certain groups, there's three primary groups that are influencing marketing agencies. What they do is they take money from an NGO, usually a Protestant Zionist NGO, that is a money front, essentially like a money laundering front to try to change public opinion. What do I mean by this? A wealthy donor will see that, let's say, people are saying that Bibi Netanyahu's dead, and it's hurting the credibility of Netanyahu's government.

3:29:00 A campaign will go out, the company will receive $500,000, like that much money, and for like one days of tweets, and they will be told you need to change the public opinion on Netanyahu. They'll put together a two to three page document that has a goal. It is sent to you in an encrypted document that you have to open up using your email and password. When you open the document up, it says confidential, confidential watermarked all over it. They have your IP address. printed all over the document. So if you share the document with people, it can be traced back to you and you can go to jail or be sued for up to $15 million. And then when you read the document, it has a, it has a PDF reader. That's like, it's like an Asian person's eyesight. You know, you've seen an Asian driver, like what are they seeing? Um, but it's got like an Asian eyes. So you can only see one line at a time as if you're in some sort of a CIA movie and you go and you scroll up, you read one line line bifurcation. And it says what,

3:29:54 Tweet out this and it's a direct message that will say like Netanyahu is alive Everybody is stupid and you know how much money you get for this even if you're a small account you can get up to seven hundred and fifty dollars for one tweet plus two dollars for every 1,000 impressions Now you see people that take the money from these people like DC Drano who's a Jewish entertainment lawyer from LA and who's now residing in another state, sort of posing as a conservative leader. Millions of followers, by the way, one of the most viral tweets of all time is taking, I would say potentially millions of dollars from these people per year, looking at his impression rate. While they're laughing at you, jumping in cash, our soldiers are dying. And I say to people like DC Drano, and I won't say his real name, that's his screen name. I don't wanna dox anyone here. But it's like I say to these people, is it worth it?

3:30:50 You sold out your country for $750? That 7,000 number is fake, by the way. That's not what they're getting. They're getting about 5 to 750, some are getting 1,000 per tweet. And then small accounts that have no following get $100 per tweet, plus per performance. You can raise your family in the United States by lying to the American people directly. And that's an opportunity that a lot of people won't pass up. And I'm gonna tell you this confidently and securely on my grave, that the only individuals on X who still support Trump on the Iran war are being either paid by one of these influencer marketing agencies, or they are being paid by an NGO slash nonprofit like PragerU or Turning Point. Why do I know that? Well, Turning Point already has two instances, two, where they came out and they directly countersignaled Charlie Kirk.

3:31:44 They said that Charlie Kirk was pro-Iran war. I have a video here, Charlie tried to warn us. They put out a tweet being like, Charlie said that Iran should be westernized again. Charlie can't speak for himself. Charlie's dead, but I can speak for Charlie, probably better than his widow. What's going on with that? I grieve more over killing a fly in my house than it seems that woman grieves over her husband. And I am not trying to widow shame. There's just, I'm just going to say, I'm not going to accuse her of anything. I feel bad for her. I feel bad for her children, but something is very freaking wrong with that woman's dispensation here. Check out this video. Charlie Kirk did warn us, watch what he had to say before he was shot. I believe in advance of this operation, Epic Fear, and I have evidence we'll talk about later. Let's get into the video.

3:32:36 does have a conventional military. They are a proud and they are a big cunt. Possible case scenario is Iran says, okay, you humiliated us, you killed all of our leaders. We're gonna go make this a regional mess and try to get as many people involved as possible. They're gonna go after Americans, they're gonna go after Saudis, they're gonna go after everybody imaginable just to create a big mess and to try to draw the world into it. Because understand the Iranian people are widely respected and not necessarily are always in sync with leadership. But if and when the people of Iran feel like Persia is being defaced and humiliated and disrespected, we don't know where that is going to go. And that's my final reason why I am always skeptical of military intervention. And when a lot of the sometimes warmongering wing gets too excited, you don't know, actually. You need to have a lot of humility.

3:33:32 Yeah, you do. Charlie was a good friend, rest in peace to a lot of us. He was wrong on Israel for a long time, but he was switching up. I'm gonna touch back on Turning Point, because I have some information that I believe, I think we know why they killed Charlie now. And I wanna drop that here. This is not unsubstantiated hearsay. This is effective reporting and journalism. I helped build the timeline for January 6th with the New York Times. I mean, we don't really trust the mainstream media, but it's always funny. The New York Times trusts me to build a credible timeline of a serious alleged terrorist event. But of course, when I tell people what's really going on, they always say, oh, I don't believe you. It's like, oh, Alex, I don't believe you. And Alex will be like, you're gonna crash a plane into the Twin Towers. Osama Bin Laden is gonna crash a plane into the Twin Towers and then it's still gonna try to take him down. And everyone's like, oh, Alex, you nut job, you Sandy Hook liar. And what happens? Well, planes crash into the Twin Towers. So what's he saying right there is, look, we don't know what's gonna happen. And the thing is, James O'Keefe, the director of O'Keefe Media Group,

3:34:30 Remember he was kicked out of Project Veritas, an organization that was pledged to expose government corruption in the intelligence communities and the surrounding offices. Now there was a man named Matthew Tierman, a Jewish individual, who led a coup against him and got him kicked out and essentially shut the company down. It's still operating on its skeleton, but it's not in effectively where it was before. He shut this down on false allegations. Oh my gosh, a Jew lying? Apparently it happens according to my producer. I didn't know that. I wouldn't say that, that'd be anti-Semitic. However, what happened is, is that he got Matthew Tierman on secret camera recently, proving that he works with the FBI in New York. This is important because not only did Matthew Tierman threaten to kill James O'Keefe,

3:35:14 That's very serious considering Charlie Kirk was killed. But it turns out James uncovered that there was some sort of an operation with the FBI to discredit right wing and conservative media figures, to dismantle conservative or right leaning organizations that went against state objectives. Now when we start to look at the victims of lawfare, when we start to look at the victims of who's been attacked and taken down in the last year. Let's look at this, Candace Owens, the FBI, she reported the FBI, a Jewish man tried to kill her and the FBI arrested him. Charlie Kirk was murdered and we have no answers. An assassin tried to kill Nick Fuentes and thankfully he survived, right?

3:35:51 Now, just recently I had the FBI work with an FBI informant, bug my offices, blackmail my investors, completely shut down my company, which relaunches April 1st, Monday through Friday, 9 p.m. Central. Should watch that Riff TV Rumble and on YouTube. And they also got into my personal life. Now, we don't talk about a personal life on the show, but guys, they got to my family members. That's how vindictive they are. And I talked to a few people. I called some people, right? They've already been going after Alex. We're used to that. I'm like, what does that mean that they're trying to discredit and take down conservative and right-leaning figures that don't meet up with state objectives? Oh my gosh, I'm so freaking stupid. Once Operation Epic Fury started to go, between the time that Charlie Kirk was murdered, the assassination of attempts, and all of these things that take you down my company.

3:36:43 The FBI and these informants said anybody who's against state objectives, aka Israeli objectives, aka ahead of Operation Epic Fury, they prepared for this moment. Guam, stop being stupid. Open up your freaking mind and realize that there was an attempt to discredit every single person, including what did Tucker Carlson say the other day? The FBI, I mean, the CIA is trying to frame him for a crime. And what is all of these ex-Israeli agents saying? Like Shabos Kestenbaum, Larry Loomer. They're going, hey, India's great now. You saw that, Laura Loomer? India's great, but you know what's not great? Tucker Carlson.

3:37:24 Why isn't Tucker Cotarelson good? Yeah, cuz he's against the Iran war. Yeah, that makes sense. Why was Candace Owens, why should she be killed? She's against the Iran war too, and against Zionist objectives. Okay, that's just a coincidence, just two people. Wait, you're telling me they tried to assassinate Nick Fuentes? What is his platform? What the heck Nick Fuentes is against Zionism and Israeli subversion of the US interests, okay? Okay now we're getting three people but come on. There's not anybody else that could be there Then they went after a smaller organization, Rift TV, the whole organization, everybody that worked there, every single person. They created a dossier, a 27-page dossier, lifting my records, getting private tweets from my family, everything, messages, DMs, to destroy my life based on lies. Who was behind that? A Jewish guy. Who was that guy working for last? Matthew Tierman. Who was Tierman working for? The FBI.

3:38:23 And what does it say at the end of the dossier to take down my company? I would like to work with Kash Patel. Please pass this dossier to the FBI. Okay, that's four people, but maybe it's still a coincidence. All right, F it. You mean Tucker, you're saying Tucker Carlson is being targeted too? And let me guess, he's against the war in Iran and he's against the imperialist regime of constant military industrial complex spending. All right, okay, okay, okay. Well, there's one guy dead and five other people threatened to be killed, murdered, destroyed, and blackmailed, all sharing one thing in common.

3:39:00 We are all black women at heart, Candace. I'm kidding. It's that we are against the war in Iran. So this was a planned, coordinated effort. Now, I've been an investigative journalist. I told you, I've been published all around. In CNN, I've been on Tucker Carlson, on Primetime at its height. I've been on every conservative podcast. I've been on every single network. And I was credible my entire life. But now when I say this is what's going on, the establishment says you're a liar and you're a fraud. How about this to the establishment, Caroline Livett, to Donald Trump? How dare you? How dare you mock the blood of our ancestors? We have friends that died in Iraq, in Afghanistan. Those were our dads, those were our moms, those were our brothers, those were our sons. There are parents grieving right now. There are parents crying because their kids are dead. There's seven month old kids, man, twins and a little kid. You saw that soldier? They're gonna grow up without a dad. I'm a dad. I got two beautiful kids. Alex is a dad.

3:40:01 And we're gonna sit here and I'm gonna think about my kids growing up without a father, the devastation that would cause. Kids are growing up without a dad because Lindsey Graham couldn't finish his masturbation session sitting in front of the Israeli flag soaked in the blood of gods and children. He couldn't finish and the Viagra just wasn't working. So we just had to go to another war and kill a couple more Arabs, a couple more Persians for Israel. And I'm sick of it. You know what? I don't think I'm the only one. Let's go down to block D for a second here to the first video. Trump called upon the individuals in NATO. We're working together in a coalition against Ukraine. And he said, please send your boats to the Strait of Hormuz. We need your help. And well, unfortunately, no one wants to get involved. And now he's mad. I thought we won Trump. Now he says we're leaving NATO. Trump says we are leaving NATO.

3:40:57 That's the first video in block D that we're gonna watch right now. Check this out. He's so mad. He's not only turning on his base, he's not only turning on the Republic, he's turning on his allies all in the name of Zionist supremacy. Check this out. I'm disappointed in NATO that we spend trillions of dollars on NATO. Think of it trillions over the years, many trillions of dollars. It's one of the reasons we have deficits and we help other countries. And when they don't help us, I mean, it's certainly something that

3:41:41 We should think about I don't need Congress for that decision as you probably know I can make that decision myself I'd work with some very smart people And I'd always deal with Congress anyway, but I don't need Congress for that decision But you know when you when you say rethink I'm not I have nothing currently in mind, but I will say that I'm not exactly thrilled when we help them with Ukraine, look, Ukraine would have been over in one day if we didn't help. Frankly, Ukraine would have been over in the first day. They had the best equipment in the world. It was our equipment given by sleepy Joe Biden. No charge. No charge. Hundreds of billions of dollars of the best equipment in the world. No charge. I will say that I'm not happy about it.

3:42:32 Yeah, I'm disappointed in NATO. Now some of you guys in the Rumble chat, we encourage you to watch across platforms. InfoWars, you watch on Alex, watch on the Rumble. Please support the show. We need your guys' support. The viewer is the power. Someone asked, a bunch of people asked, are you getting paid? I'm gonna answer you quite frankly, no. At one point I was getting paid, but I'm not anymore. And that's why I'm able to speak freely. I've given up the golden handcuffs. I work for myself. I own this company, Rift. Just like Alex owns his. It's very hard to run because everyone's taking away our money and our opportunities. The first chance they get. I get money from only two places. My own products that I put on my show and donations from the people that watch the show. And that's why I can talk like this. Because nobody's calling me telling me that I can't say what I want. Now, it's not just the fact that NATO is giving up.

3:43:16 We have a video of French President Emmanuel Macron. I know the French, we have a very iffy relationship as Americans. We don't really respect them. But Macron says, look, he's not involved with this. This is a US-Israeli objective. This is not a global objective. That's why I don't think it's gonna be a world war. I call it World War 2.5. Alex calls it World War 4, because the Cold War was World War 3. It's 2.5 to me because it's the proxy before we actually get into one in the next 25 to 30 years. Check out this video from Macron saying, he's against this. It doesn't benefit anyone. Watch. He says, for our nation, our objectives are clear. They have been defined.

3:44:09 The day one on one has not changed. The first is to protect our citizens, our diplomatic and military bases and our interests in the region. The second directive is to stand alongside all our partners, those with whom we are linked by defense agreements alongside whom we will often go in the fight against terrorism for security and for regional stability. And so we have honored our word and we continue to honor it. We are loyal to our partners and we have provided them with a very clear support from the beginning, which is to help them protect their own population. Let's end that there.

3:44:48 So Macron says the obvious, this Iran war is not about our partners. This is not about NATO objectives. We are not protecting the American people. Caroline Leavitt admitted we are not protecting the American people. Joe Kent resigned from the counterterrorism unit and said this war is not about protecting the American people. But Jerry Kushner said it is. But Bill O'Reilly said it was. Jesse Watters said it was. Paid actors, liars, scammers, fraud, I'm done. How about the people that put their lives on line? How about the people that have been willing to go to court and fights and destruction all for the sake of making sure you guys have the truth? And the reason why we're all carrying the same message isn't because we have some backdoor meetings where we want to counter signal the magnet movement. We have meetings. No, we don't. Oh, cause we're all getting paid by someone. No, we're not. We all make our own income from different sources. What we have in common is this. We stand solely against one

3:45:50 One ideology right now, and that is a Zionist terrorist ideology that has infected the United States like a cancer. Now the problem with this is we are at day 18 of really not seeing, I guess about day 18, I mean, is it really day 18 without seeing that in the public? I'll get that right. Maybe it's a little bit less than that. That's crazy if that headline's true. But I want to say, I want to end with this. I've been living in the United States of America for 32 years. I've worked around the world. I worked in China. I've worked in South Korea, worked in Australia and Mexico, El Salvador. I've worked with multiple countries on diplomatic and lobbying missions, in liaisoning. I've worked with the United States government, Democrats. I even worked with Gavin Newsom's campaign in California. I'm gonna tell you that this fight goes far beyond the left and the right. This fight goes far beyond Republican and Democrat. This fight goes way beyond MAGA or neocon.

3:46:43 This is the fight for the soul of America. This is our destiny, our blood right, our blood promise. This is our birthright about whether or not we inherit the country that we want. Whether or not we're able to clean up the streets in our cities, build the infrastructure that we need, get the illegals deported out of our country. Guys, my name is Elijah Shafer. Remember, Never Vance, never Rubio, never Neocon, America first. Thank you guys so much again for watching. Catch my show Monday through Friday 9 p.m. Central on Rumble and YouTube and on X.
