"United States is bombing Iran again. I mean, you've been bombing Iran for months now. Is this just the new normal for the American people? No, well, we're in Vietnam for 19 years. We're here for four months. I don't understand constantly like, hey, this stupid war that you don't like. What about..."

[0:00] United States is bombing Iran again. I mean, you've been bombing Iran for months now. Is [0:04] this just the new normal for the American people? No, well, we're in Vietnam for 19 [0:08] years. We're here for four months. I don't understand constantly like, [0:14] hey, this stupid war that you don't like. What about that other one? We might get there someday. [0:20] That's not how you sell stuff. I thought you were like a carnival parker. The point is to [0:24] get people on your side. But anyway, Trump was probably off his game because it was Caitlin [0:30] Collins, who has a supernatural ability to get under his skin. And it's hard for him to focus [0:37] because he's enraged by her and how good she is at her job. And he's also, let's keep it real, [0:42] desperately horny the entire time. So we can't expect much out of him in that interaction. [0:48] We also, it's become clear, can't expect much out of him when it comes to Iran generally. [0:52] So we're gonna give you the full update on what's going on. He has actually changed his mind on [0:57] something. Let's see if I agree with him, but first more. They don't have any military. [1:02] There's not a thing they can do about it. All they have is fake news because they have the fake news [1:06] would rather see us lose the war than win the war, which is really treasonous, [1:12] which is really treasonous in a certain way. So we're doing another very major attack tonight. [1:18] They wanna make a deal, they came back. We made a deal two days ago and they wanna make a deal. [1:23] They've been negotiating for 47 years, but nobody's ever hit that militarily. [1:28] We're hitting them very hard. Thank you very much everybody. Thank you. [1:31] Thank you guys. [1:35] All you soy boys, you don't understand real strength. You say something and then you immediately [1:40] move on. No follow questions. I'm gonna state this and she might ask me a tough question. She might [1:47] make me look like a doof. Please, somebody get me out of here. Anyway, that guy is so terrified of [1:53] Caitlin Collins, my God. Okay, but so 47 years we've been negotiating. I'll remind you, [2:00] we didn't negotiate for quite a while. You know that at one point the negotiations led to the JCPOA [2:05] and then that was it for a couple years. That was good. They weren't working on nukes. We had people [2:12] on the ground looking into it and the Strait of Hormuz, no drones, no missiles. You could just take a boat [2:20] and go through it. He sort of glossed over that part. I think Caitlin Collins might have brought it [2:24] up if you've given her a chance. That said, I didn't know that accurately reporting on the war [2:30] in Iran was treasonous. In that case, let me redo this. I'm so happy that we won the war in Iran [2:38] after four to six weeks like Donald Trump said that we would. Isn't that great? No, [2:44] we are stuck in the dumbest foreign policy groundhogs day ever. You saw some of it right [2:51] there that we made a deal two days ago. They're desperate to make a deal. [2:54] Then why are we fighting them again? You've said that they've been desperate for literally months. [2:58] They're not coming off as desperate. You're coming off as slightly desperate, but they seem kind of okay [3:04] with what's going on. That said, we are gonna hit them pretty hard. That'll probably do it. [3:09] I bet. Yep, that's that's gonna be I bet. I bet we're gonna drop a bomb tonight and then [3:15] the war is over. I'm gonna put all of my money on poly market and cal sheet that that will be the [3:22] outcome. So anyway, no, he's wearing a forever war. That's it's just it's a forever war. He's [3:28] being pretty clear about that. Not with us, not with Caitlin Collins, but with Congress. [3:32] He sent a letter and he was like, hey, a couple of days ago we actually restarted the war. So [3:37] I have another 60 days that I can do this before you can say anything about it. [3:42] And I don't think that's how the law is supposed to work. I'm pretty sure it's just the overall war. [3:48] I don't think that you can declare a ceasefire that isn't a ceasefire and we keep bombing each [3:52] other during it. And then we start bombing each other more and then you're like new war. [3:56] I don't think that's how it works necessarily, but it is pretty clear that we're just gonna keep [4:01] doing this literally forever. That said, obviously I was critical yesterday of his plan to toll ships [4:09] going through the Strait of Hormuz. I was critical of it yesterday and two weeks ago when he said it [4:14] and a month ago when he said it and two months ago when he said it. And I swear to you, I will be [4:19] critical of it when he says it in nine days. But for now, he's changed his mind, which is good. [4:25] He released this. I think this is the first book in a trilogy, I'm pretty sure. But the important part [4:32] is blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, ship traffic, blah, blah, blah. We totally control it except [4:36] that ships are getting blown up and everything. But then he says, based on highly productive [4:42] conversations with Middle East leadership, I have decided to replace the 20% US reimbursement fee [4:48] with trade and investment deals that the various Gulf states will be making the US. [4:52] Those investments will be massive. Okay, so he announced yesterday that we're going to [5:00] be the guardian angels of the Strait of Hormuz and we're going to declare 20% fee on all the ships. [5:06] And then a day later, he's like, no, but some countries are gonna, they told me they'd invest [5:12] here. Well, that's the same thing. Look, I think both of these are absolute bull crap. [5:16] I don't think either of these things was ever going to happen. They're not doing the investments. [5:19] That's not how investments work, by the way. You do investments when you think there will be a return on [5:24] it. You don't do it because like Trump said he's gonna do a toll. You know that he's not going to, [5:30] it's all a lie. And by the way, he's gonna declare that he's gonna do a toll again. [5:33] I stand by my joke from a minute ago. It's gonna happen over and over and over again. [5:39] And I wanna remind everyone, Donald Trump in his whiny talking about Iran over the past couple days is [5:44] like, I don't like those Iranians. They're scum. You can't trust them. You just said you're doing [5:51] a toll and a day later it's gone and a day later it will be back. It's all nonsense. [5:58] Except I guess that I do buy that we're gonna do more bombing, I suppose. Let's jump into this. [6:03] Well, was the MOU that your negotiators brought back, [6:07] was that side saddle MOU? Was that built to fall apart? [6:11] It was built to test. It was a test. We didn't know. Look, memorandum of understanding when you're [6:20] dealing with sleaze bags don't mean much. We're gonna hit them very hard tonight. [6:25] And we're gonna hit them hard tomorrow. And there's not a damn thing they can do about it. [6:30] They have nothing. They have nothing going other than they have big mouths. [6:33] Hugh, first of all, like Megyn Kelly, you're one of the people that he has very publicly mocked. [6:42] Now I understand you value your career more than your sense of self, your integrity, [6:48] being a man or whatever. But could you push back a little bit? Because yeah, [6:52] we're gonna hit them today. We're gonna hit them tomorrow. They just have a big mouth. [6:56] That's all Trump has. The hitting them doesn't matter. It's not doing anything. [7:01] And Trump was celebrating that memorandum of understanding. It was the best thing ever. [7:08] Stupid Obama couldn't get it, except he did. He got an actual deal and it held for literally years. [7:14] But I was able to get it. Now he's like, we didn't know. It was a test. Hugh, you liked when he did [7:21] that. Now he's telling you it was just a goof. It was a lark. Do you feel anything? Are you capable [7:27] of feeling anything? You know what TYT has always been about? Taking on the corrupt, greedy establishment. [7:33] For us, it's the corporate media. We've been fighting that fight for over 20 years. For the cell phone [7:38] industry, it's the same story. A handful of massive corporations ripping you off. [7:42] That's why we're partnering with Noble Mobile. They're the only wireless company with the same [7:46] mission as ours, to fight back. Their Noble plan offers unlimited data for just $50 a month. [7:52] But here's the best part, for any data that you don't use, you get cash back. Real money you can [7:56] spend however you want. Stop letting your unused data pad the pockets of billionaires. With Noble, [8:02] you take control over your data. And by switching to Noble, you're directly supporting TYT in our mission of [8:07] bringing you honest, independent news. So give Noble a try and make the switch today. Scan the QR code [8:12] on the screen now, or visit go.tyt.com slash plan. That's go.tyt.com slash plan. [8:19] But he just sits there. Yep, I'm sure this will do it. We'll blow them up and they don't have anything. [8:26] Well, except for the capability to bomb ships trying to go through the Straight of Hormuz, [8:30] because that happened. The Defense Ministry for the UAE said that Iranian forces has targeted a pair of [8:36] its tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, killing a crew member by the way. The national tankers [8:41] Mombasa and al-Bahia were targeted by two Iranian cruise missiles. That's weird, because I didn't [8:48] think they've had those for months, but apparently they did. And they hit ships moving through the [8:52] Strait of Hormuz within Omani territorial waters. The attack resulted in the death of one Indian crew [8:59] member, the injury of eight others. The attack also caused material damage to both tankers as a result of [9:04] the fires that broke out on board, which has since been brought under control. By the way, [9:09] it is amazing to me that one of these tankers can survive being hit by a cruise missile at all. [9:13] And I'm glad that it did because I don't want one person to die, let alone even more of them. [9:17] But I don't know if I was one of the other ships being told, okay, so Trump says [9:22] they're the guardian angels and the Strait of Hormuz is open except for running ships and we can go [9:27] through and they just hit two tankers with cruise missiles and killed a person. [9:32] I don't know if I want to go through there. I don't think I'm gonna trust Trump on this. [9:37] I'm pretty sure he only has a big mouth.
