Sarah comes.
[Music] Now, it's Red Eye Radio. Talk about everything from politics to social issues and news of the day. Whether you're up late or you're just starting your day, welcome to the show. From the Unidine America Studios, for Gary McNamara and Eric Carley, Dan Mendes, this is Red Eye Radio. Good morning. We are live and special Saturday night Sunday morning edition of Red Eye Radio.
Of course, you know the breaking news that said the world. By and large except for the Democrats are celebrating the fact that Iran's Supreme Leader is dead.
There is so much to talk about. And of course, your phone calls always welcome.
86690 Red Eye is the phone number. My name by the way is Dan Mendes and for Gary and Eric. They will be back on Sunday night Monday morning. So again, a special live broadcast.
“If you want to a text into the program, you can use your when I fill in for the guys.”
I am utilizing my text line that I use in Nashville, Tennessee on Super Talk, May 9-7. I am a morning show host there on WTN and we do have a text line at 615-7379986. So if you can't call in, well, then you can text in, of course, as well. And I got to tell you that there is so much audio, so many angles to this story. And so I've got a lot to talk about. And again, I want to take your calls as well.
So first of all, the very latest, a very, very big deal in that Iran has now confirmed that their Supreme Leader,
Ayatola Ali Kamini, is dead. He was found under the rubble of his office, Iran, of course, is now confirming that it is huge a bunch of others, by the way, 40 plus in his circle and his regime are also dead.
“And Donald Trump, making the announcement, by the way, I think that we all knew that this was eventually going to happen.”
Donald Trump, making the announcement early on Saturday morning. Our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime, a vicious group of very hard, terrible people. Now, many of them are dead. And that is obviously a good thing. There are celebrations happening all across the world.
Donald Trump, again, as he was talking about his justification for doing what he did, there have been attacks in Iran on multiple fronts. And again, if you listen to talk radio, if you pay attention to the news, then you know exactly what Donald Trump's justification has been. And that is because Iran, many things here at number one, though, is that they were desperately trying to and quickly trying to rebuild their capabilities as far as nuclear weapons goes.
And Donald Trump basically saying, yeah, that's not going to happen.
47 years, the Iranian regime has chanted death to America and waged an unending campaign of bloodshed and mass murder targeting the United States, our troops, the innocent people in many, many countries. I mean, I don't know if you have seen what his going on across the world. But I mean, you want to talk about the United Kingdom, you want to talk about Australia, you want to talk about, of course, like America as well inside Iran, people are celebrating, again, from London to Los Angeles.
The celebration is striking. We got here just moments after initial reports and initial rumors of the death of Ayatollah Khamenei. I just started to trickle from Iran to this diaspora community, and people were jumping in excitement hugging each other, crying saying that basically they've been waiting 47 years for this very day.
“When is the last time you saw people in Israel and Iran dancing on the streets in excitement?”
And when is the last time you've ever heard of a country coming out and dancing? Because they're excited that foreign powers are attacking them. Yeah, you've got millions.
That guy, again, they're in Los Angeles, in a case you missed that part of th...
Of course, everyone knows it's CNN not exactly favorites for Donald Trump.
“They're always perpetually criticizing the president, but you just heard on that report admitting that in Los Angeles,”
which has, if I heard that right, and I've read this before, that Los Angeles actually has the largest contingent of Iranian people outside of Iran. And they are celebrating in the streets Washington, DC, by the way, as well. So millions across the world, going out, they're celebrating because many people, of course, have fled Iran over the years, many people have families there, loved ones, friends, thousands have been killed for protesting the Islamic Republic in Iran and their brutality. Also protesting the economy, the limited rights that people in Iran have everything.
And so Donald Trump, again, justifying why he did what he felt like he had to do. And we'll get into all of the legalities of this as well coming up, but this is part of what Donald Trump had to say.
It has always been the policy of the United States in particular, my administration, that this terrorist regime can never have a nuclear weapon.
I'll say it again. They can never have a nuclear weapon.
“Now, you know that the Trump administration, they were trying to dialogue with Iran, but they honestly didn't seem like they were interested.”
We blasted their nuclear facilities last summer. Donald Trump says, yes, indeed, they were rebuilding. And so right now, Iran is being bombed again. This is the headline from the Daily Mail. Donald Trump promises to hit Iran where they forced that has never been seen before as dozens of U.S. military bases are targeted after Iran launches, quote, the most ferocious offensive operation in history. This is part of what Donald Trump has been saying.
And we sought repeatedly to make a deal. We tried. They wanted to do it. They didn't want to do it. Again, they wanted to do it. They didn't want to do it. They didn't know what was happening. They just wanted to practice evil. But Iran refused, just as it has for decades and decades, they rejected every opportunity to renounce their nuclear ambitions. Can't take it anymore. We do have Iran, listen, I want to say right at the outset of Red Eye Radio pray for our troops, because Iran is attacking our bases across the Middle East. And so we'll continue to keep you updated.
So far, I have not heard of any, and I'm on Twitter, and I'm on Instagram on all of the various news sources. I have not yet seen any reports of any U.S. casualties, however, Iran is certainly defending themselves.
“That's what they would call it. And I would say, yeah, that's what Iran is going to do. They're going to defend themselves as far as what they see”
as an unjust and unwarranted attack. Obviously, Donald Trump feels like this is a warranted attack. There are reports, by the way, of civilian casualties in Iran. By the way, after you saw the attack this morning as the Trump administration doing what they needed to do, this was, by the way, the attack in Iran. It was multiple fronts all across the nation. We have taken out military, a military strategic, air bases and communications and missile launchers, that kind of thing.
Iran, by the way, they decided that they were going to attack American interests across the Middle East. Of course, we'll talk about that as well. You know, there's no real shock that the Democrats are criticizing a Donald Trump, but we'll get into that as well. Iran ended up launching drones at, of course, Israel, because it was America and Israel, who launched these attacks against Iran. So Iran launched drones at Israel, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Iraq.
They again firing at our military installations and our allies as well.
I do find this amazing that with all of these retaliatory attacks, there were no combat casualties.
The damage, at least initially speaking, the damage was minimal, which does show you that we did some serious damage to their military abilities.
As far as this headline from the Daily Mail, the story reads that the massive...
This is how the Daily Mail puts where we are right now, a Donald Trump promising to strike Iran with a force that has never been seen before.
“After the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps announced they had attacked nearly 30 US military bases across the Middle East here on Sunday morning.”
The targeted attacks on American assets and the destabilized region of part of Iran's self-proclaimed most intense offensive operation in history. The Islamic State Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Kamani, a black smoke, was seen rising from a US base in Erbil International Airport in northern Iraq at sunrise after the IRGC promised their most ferocious counterattack. This is something that is going to be going on for quite some time. We have a Peter Ducey Fox news other media outlets as well.
“Saying that Donald Trump and the Trump administration, this bombing is going to be relentless. Donald Trump posting on truth social was a couple of hours ago saying Iran just started stated that they are going to hit very hard today.”
When they have ever been hit to before, he says they better not do that. The president basically saying Iran is threatening to hit our bases as hard as they ever have.
He says they better not do that because if they do, we will hit them with a force that has never been seen before Israel also announcing in the early morning hours of Sunday that it had begun a new strike wave targeting Iran's ballistic missiles. Iran's aerial defense systems after Iran launched drones and missiles that Tel Aviv, which were intercepted and shot down in response.
“The IRGC said it was carrying out a sixth wave of extensive missile and drone attacks on 27 US military bases.”
The extent of the damage is not yet clear. So the bombing continues Israel bombing Iran, Iran bombing Israel, Iran bombing American interests in the Middle East, Iran also bombing what they see as our allies in the Middle East. And there is a lot to talk about. Number one, now that Iran's supreme leader is dead in my opinion justifiably. So what's next? One of the big questions that a lot of folks are asking and it's a, you know, it's a genuine question. It's a great question. Who is going to take over next?
And you've got the IRGC, the military apparatus of the Iranian government, Donald Trump has said that they need to, this was last night, when he was announcing the attack, Donald Trump saying that they need to lay down their arms. So the question is now really what will the military apparatus of Iran's government do? So far we do have a lot of celebrations going on inside of Iran. But I think a lot of people are questioning now, okay, what is going to be next? And obviously there is going to be a lot of bombing.
Tonight we're going to cover a number of different things. Number one, what is next for Iran and when will all of this bombing stop will keep you updated on what is going on with our, the attacks on our US military bases.
Here's the other part that is incredibly scary. We all know that Joe Biden's wide open border has left America vulnerable.
We know that we more than likely, if not, it is an actual fact that we do have Iranian sleeper agents in America. Listen to this headline. Again, from the Daily Mail, they've got a lot of good stuff there. Iranian sleeper agents have infiltrated the U.S. How an XFBI boss is warning, imminent tear attacks on American soil and how exactly will they strike. The legacy of Joe Biden is going to live on for generations to come and make no mistake. I have no doubt that Donald Trump and, you know, our FBI, our CIA, our local law enforcement, they're looking at all of this.
They understand the threats.
And now the question is, are we safe here at home? So there's a lot of legit worries amidst all of the celebrations that are happening across the world across America.
There are some very legitimate questions that also have to be answered. It does look like this strike on Iran and the strikes that are continuing. It does look like they have been successfully. It does look like they have done serious damage to not only Iran's Islamic regime or Islamic Republic, but also. It looks like from a military standpoint, we have also a done extensive damage. You know, one of the things that I'm going to end this segment with this is the difference between the Democrats handling of Iran and the Republicans. First of all, let's not forget that you have both Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
“They were asked about Iran and Iran's aggression towards not only Israel, of course, but the entire Middle East. And remember, remember what her answer was.”
What's the message to Iran? Don't. That's President Biden said, just don't. Exactly. One word, pretty straightforward. And how did Iran respond to that one word? Well, we all know what Iran did to Israel. We all know that Iran has been funding terrorism all across the world. And, you know, Donald Trump has been saying this for years about how he wanted to treat Iran.
Don't.
“Nope. That was Kamala Harris. What did Donald Trump say? This is what Donald Trump said. I'm going to bomb the **** out of him. Yeah, it's true. I don't care. I don't care.”
They've got to be stopped. And that is exactly what Donald Trump has been trying to do and that really started in force at 24 hours ago. Will we turn next right here on Red Eye Radio?

To Red Eye Radio 866-90 Red Eye, we are live it is Saturday night Sunday morning and a special live broadcast of Red Eye Radio. Of course covering all of the breaking news in Iran. And one of the very legit questions is okay.
Is okay. By the way, I would call that a good start. Now, I'm here to tell you that my friends in Nashville who listen to me every single day, I'm here to tell you that my opinion has not changed.
“I believe I've said here on Red Eye Radio before, which is I'm not a regime change kind of guy.”
I'm incredibly worried about what will happen next, what could happen next. Because it doesn't look like Iran's military is going to lay down their weapons, at least that's not what I'm seeing as of yet. So that's number one. Number two, again, the very real challenge of who is going to take over in Iran next, because there's all kinds of different groups that are out there.
And what is going on right now outside of the guard, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, is going to be a power vacuum.
And we all know what happens when they're power vacuums. So as the world is celebrating, they're very legitimate questions that need to be answered.
We'll regime change actually work this time.
You're a part of the story, also the school of school, just like the rats and then the head of the building.

The story is really like the story of who just understood it. The government in Iran did have also been killed. And by the way, the more that Iran tries to strike back it.
American assets in the Middle East or our allies in the Middle East. The more Donald Trump is going to continue to bomb the living crap out of Iran. And so the more that he bombs the living crap out of Iran. Yeah, the more we're going to see these clerics and higher ups in the government fall. There's also a guy named in that you maybe you've heard of this guy maybe not,
but Reza Palavi. Now he is a son of the last Shah. He is very secular in nature. And he is somebody who is a proponent of a democratic Iran. There's a lot of people in America who really do want this guy to be the new leader of Iran.
Here's the problem.
The problem is like if you live in America and you are obviously westernized because you live in America.
You're Iranian, but you live in America, you're Iranian American, whatever. You want Palavi because you still have family in Iran. You still have friends in Iran. Maybe someday you dream of going back to Iran. And you dream of a more westernized Iran.
Well, Palavi would be your guy. You know what the problem is? There's not a huge ton of support for Palavi in Iran. And the IRGC, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, not exactly overwhelmingly supportive of this guy.
Here's the other problem. And I realize the friends, I know that I'm getting into the weeds on this. Trust me when I say I could get a lot of weedier on this because there's all kinds of various groups inside of Iran as well that could be at some point battling it out. With guns and weapons and killing of civilians,
it could get really ugly in Iran.
But the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, or the IRGC,
they could splinter as well. So we really don't know what's going to happen in Iran. They're going to have to figure something out. The government's going to have to figure something out and will continue to watch. You know, part of it depends on who ultimately is left standing in Iran.
Because as I just mentioned, a few moments ago, the bombing will continue. The bombings will continue. Follow me on X, at the end of the show. I just played you a garbage take from some absolute moron from Hollywood.
Tim Heidecker, whatever his name is. There are legitimate concerns here. As I just mentioned, there are legitimate concerns.
“Here's the thing though, is that there are legitimate concerns.”
And then there are garbage takes like the ones that you're going to see from TDS written.
Hollywood types and also some Democrats as well.
You know, the world is indeed celebrating.
“Not only in the Middle East, but across the world.”
There are, of course, the Democrats who have their complaints. This is Senator Mark Kelly and he has some very familiar complaints. Hey folks, this morning the United States, while this administration launched a major attack on Iran. As I see this, hey, there's no real plan here.
And often these things do not go the way. People think they do, especially the people that don't serve in the military. You know, like this president. You know, often there are the ones that think every solution is to drop a bomb. And by the way, this is the guy that got sort of got us into this mass anyway.
He in his first term, he, he ripped up the Iran nuclear deal, which then put the Iranians on a path to further enrich uranium. Did that strike the summer that operationally was a success strategically, as we see now, not so much. So let's go through some of these because a lot of that is BS,
but he has the audacity to say,
well, you know, basically Donald Trump never served.
Well, neither did Joe Biden and certainly neither did Barack Obama. So what's your point? Donald Trump has a lot of military advisors around him. And by the way, Senator Mark Kelly, the president has executed a few. Really well executed military operations since he ended up in office a year ago,
little over a year ago now. So whatever your point is there.
“I like how he says, there's no real plan here, really?”
Because we took out the leader of Iran and 40 other officials as well. I mean, what to talk about the nuclear deal? The nuclear deal was a piece of crap and everybody knew it. John Kerry, Barack Obama, basically the crux of the Iranian nuclear deal was Iran would have the ability for secrecy.
And Iran was going to be able to pick and choose when the nuclear investigators were allowed to go into their facilities where they were going to know doubt. And in my opinion, be manufacturing nuclear weapons and enrichment and all the other stuff that they were going to do. In other words, it was based on trusting Iran.
And Donald Trump was like, oh, heck, no, you can't trust Donald Trump. But so Donald Trump, or you can't trust Iran. And so when Donald Trump came into power, one of the first things that he did in the first term was pull us out of the Iranian nuclear deal. I thought that that was very smart because it was based on trust.
And you can't trust the world's number one source of terrorism. You just can't. And you can't allow Iran to say, well, no nuclear inspections today. You come back in a couple months when we've effectively hidden all of the evidence that we are now well on our way to manufacturing nuclear weapons.
I mean, come on, really. Come on, Senator Mark Kelly, you're smarter than why you're really not.
“Also, this was a mission that had multiple fronts, right?”
So we took out military targets. We took out political targets. Connected to the Islamic Republic infrastructure related to the military. Iranian era fields. And so yeah, it does seem to me.
This was definitely a planned, well, thought out and well executed military operation. How about racial matter? What does she have to say? And when you Donald Trump in your baseball hat proclaimed on that weird
taped message today that the Iranian police and the security forces in the
Revolutionary Guard must surrender.
They must lay down their weapons as Donald Trump said this morning at safety. If that was what you wanted to happen because you wanted the domestic security situation to become less dangerous for the Iranian people to rise up and overthrow their government.
If you actually wanted to make that happen instead of just saying it, you as the US government, maybe you as the US government in coalition with other allies that you might have bothered to bring on board. You might have given the Iranian police and revolutionary guard and security services some instructions on how to surrender and lay down their weapons.
So the crazy thing is a number of different things. People have taken to the streets of Iran.
There have been celebrations and I haven't seen the Islamic Revolutionary Guard
opening fire at this point, that's number one. Number two, she also says something about bringing our allies in the region on board. Somewhere some were not somewhere supportive behind the scenes,
Here's the deal.
If we sat around and waited for the Middle East to agree to all of this,
we would never take action ever.
“And by the way, Iran ended up launching drones at Israel and Bahrain”
and Qatar and Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Iraq. And so America and Israel, we had targeted military attacks against their military installations and their government. What did Iran do? They just indiscriminately fired
at other Middle Eastern countries. God, I'm more straight ahead on Red Aurelio. Get in touch with Red Aurelio toll-free at 866. May be Red Aurelio. It's run a radio.

We are alive. And we are covering all things around this morning. Phone number is 86690. Red Aurelio.
If you don't want to call in, then you can always text in.
I use my text line from Nashville, Tennessee, where I am a morning show host. Super Talk 297 WTN. That text line 615-737-9986.
“If you want to text in and give me your thoughts on what is going on in Iran.”
And so we are alive. The Iotola al-Khamani. As you may or may not know, he has now been confirmed dead. I know that you've probably been hearing it all day long. I know that the other thing that was dead, but the difference now is that Iran's government
is actually now confirming that he was found dead in a big old pile of rubble underneath his compound. There he was, I guess, his home office. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard. They are still obviously very active.
Donald Trump is engaged in a war of not only missiles, but also words against Iran. Iran has been saying. And they've been bombing neighboring countries. And of course, they have also been bombing our military bases in the region as well. So if you are prone to prayer, which I am, say a prayer for our troops as this is happening
as we speak this morning, I'll keep you updated on all of the very latest.
What did President Trump say on truth social?
Well, this was a few hours ago when he said that Iran just stated that they are going
“to, they are going to hit very hard today, harder than they have ever hit before.”
He says they better not do that, however, because if they do, Trump says we will hit
them with a force that has never been seen before.
He says, thank you for your attention to this matter. President Donald J. Trump. So there's a lot going on here. One of the questions. And there's a lot of reaction going on across the political and military sphere.
So we'll continue to talk about all of that. One of the questions is Donald Trump on solid legal footing. Now, here we go again with this conversation regarding a Congress. Democrats, of course, they are screaming like they always do that Donald Trump didn't go through Congress.
Well, here's the deal he did. Is a matter of fact.
“Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, contacted the gang of eight on Friday.”
So whether or not you think that bombing Iran was a good idea or not a good idea, you can have reservations about this. But is I have all along because my worry is a number of different things.
Number one is as I've been stating throughout not only the first hour of right
I radio here live on Saturday night, Sunday morning. We don't know what is next for the nation of Iran. So that's number one. But number two, we don't know what's going to happen here at home. Because Iran under the administration of Joe Biden,
they were able to form sleepers cells here in America. And so now there are people far smarter than me who are predicting terror attacks here at home. We'll talk about that straight ahead. But if you're worried that if you're worried is that Donald Trump didn't go
through Congress. He did, again, Marco Rubio contacted the gang of eight on Friday. ABC News, the Wall Street Journal and others. Now reporting that Marco Rubio has given both classified briefings and notification that the attack was going forward.
Now who is the gang of eight? Speaker of the House. House Minority Leader. Same in the Senate. The chair and ranking members of the House intelligence committee
are ranking members of the Senate intelligence committee as well. So that is the gang of eight. So for all of these nervous nellies there within the Democrat party. Oh, he didn't go through Congress. Oh, he's a dick to shut the heck up.
He did. Democrats will also say that President Trump did not have the authority to do what he did. Again, didn't clear it with Congress. Yes, he did have the authority and yes, he did tell Congress.
First of all, you have an I'm not going to do a big deep dive on this.
And I could literally probably go on for an hour just on this, but I'm not going to. But you have the War Powers Act of 1973 that the Democrats are screaming about today. Here are the requirements that are in the 1973 War Powers Act. Presidents must consult Congress in every possible instance, which means, you know, to me there is some wiggle room there anyway.
“He did consult the Democrats and that's what everybody is reporting.”
He must notify Congress within 48 hours. He did. The operation must end. They say within 60 days unless Congress is authorizing it to continue on. I guess there's some sort of another 30 days that can be worked in there.
But the operation must end within 60 to 90 days unless Congress authorizes an extension. But here's the deal. Is that I mean, every single president has basically dismissed the War Powers Act of 1973. My Davis is a famed attorney, a legal commentator for a number of different outlets, including Fox News. And he was talking with Steve Bannon.
Under Article 1 of the Constitution, Congress has the power to declare war. And there's a difference between declaring war and making war. Under Article 2, the president of the United States is the commander in chief and going all the way back to the Federalist papers. Our founders all agreed that the president has the inherent power to repel an invasion or an imminent attack on the United States.
We have not had a declaration of war since World War II.
Right.
“And nobody is actually declaring war here.”
This is a military action, not a war.
And as a military action goes, the president does have the authority. In 1973, Congress passed over President Nixon's veto. They overwrote the veto. And they passed the War Powers Act of 1973. That's been on the book for over 50 years.
The problem for that statute is, is no president. Democrat or Republican has ceded its constitutionality. Every president has said the War Powers Act of 1973 is not constitutional. No president has complied with the War Powers Act of 1973. Any court that has addressed this issue when people have sued the president to try to stop for example President Obama's attack on Libya.
“The courts have said that these are political questions.”
That the courts will not decide, meaning these are questions for the political branches for the Congress. And for the president to fight it out, to figure out who has the power and who does not. Right. And you heard Davis say, you know, Democrat presidents, Republican Democrats. They've all side-sept sidestepped the War Powers Act of 1973.
You had Bill Clinton with his air campaigns in Bosnia and Kosovo, Obama in Libya. At Jimmy Carter with the 1980 Iranian hostage rescue mission, a Republicans have done it as well. You've got, and I'm just Ronald Reagan and the Bush's. But here's the other part. As you heard him just say, the Supreme Court says this is a political question and not a legal one.
So this is going to be an ongoing discussion.
“And by the way, it just to be fair, because I'm of course, you know, criticizing the Democrats for screaming.”
Democrats for screaming about this, but when it's a Democrat president and the Republicans are not in power, Republicans say the same thing. So this is something that is just all part of the conversation.
The Supreme Court has never weighed in.
This is more of a political question. Again, not a legal one, according to the Supreme Court. And here's the other part of all of this. You also have, and I'm getting into the weeds. So just give me 30 seconds. You have the AUMFs, the authorizations of military force.
This does give the president the legal authority to do what it needs to do. It is considered compliant by some with the war powers resolution. But the bottom line here is this. As far as I can tell, Donald Trump is on solid legal footing.
The arguing is always going to happen.
It is a common talking point with that is used by both Republicans and Democrats. And by the way, the Democrats and some in the media are arguing that the sheer scale of this attack. This is a huge attack. I mean, you could tell because my voice just went up like an octave. It is a huge attack.
I mean, this was an attack northern Iran and southern Iran and just all points in between. We took out their part of their military apparatus, their communications apparatus as well. We've done a lot of damage to Iran. Not to mention, of course, taking out to Ayatollah al-Kamani. The Democrats, and by the way, in some in the media, are arguing that the sheer scale of this attack
Trump's encouraging regime change. I mean, that this is a far bigger attack than we've seen in the past with geopolitical ramifications. So they are saying that because of that, that President does need congressional approval by the way, CNN and other outlets now reporting that bombs are dropping Iranian bombs are dropping in Dubai. One of the things that I want to say is that Iran's response to our bombing,
is actually, I mean, follow me here, Iran's response actually justifies what we've done. Here's the reason I say that is because what we did and what Israel did is we struck strategic military assets in Iran. We struck the leadership in Iran. You know what Iran's doing? They're indiscriminately bombing places like Dubai, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and so on and so forth.
That's the whole point is that Iran, if they had a nuclear weapon and remembe...
Is because they, again, wanted to build a nuclear weapon. We obliterated their nuclear capabilities back somewhere of last year and they were looking to rebuild their nuclear capabilities.
“Apparently, according to Donald Trump and others, they were on their way to that. Did you hear by the way what happened in the United Nations?”
Which is very quickly. So this is the representative. This was earlier today or Saturday. This is the representative from Iran and our own ambassador Mike Walts. I want you to listen very closely.
I advise to the representative of the United States to be polite. It will be better for yourself and the country will represent it.
The ambassador Mike Walts and his response. That is coming up next. My name is Dan Medis. We are live. It is Saturday night Sunday morning and we are covering all the latest and what is going on in the Middle East to phone number is and it remains.
“86690. Red eye 8669073339. Gottlott more straight ahead. This is Red Eye Radio. This morning's USDA Farm Report is brought to you by House products tested, trusted guarantee since 1920.”
Citrus Greenig, a threat to Florida's origin industry is being addressed in part through USDA research. As geneticist Matthew Bete explains, that involves crossbreeding and developing trees at fruit, resisted to both citrus greenig and the vector that causes the disease, which starts at the tree side and root stock levels. We have a lot of information about the science and root stocks interact together to create strong resilient citrus trees that can tolerate plant stresses that lead to improved fruit quality.
Test citrus grows in Florida feature at experimental variety of orange called FF5-51-2 so rounded by grows of a non test variety. Other variety called U.S. early brand. It's very clorotic, very light green, very sick, and very susceptible to the antibody.
“As reflected by missing spaces within the Dodd-Test Grove spots where now dead trees once grew. I'm Rod Bay in reporting for the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C.”
This report brought to you by Senax Fules and Looms. He winds up in for your goals. 866-90-Red Eye on Red Eye Radio. To an eye radio, 866-90-Red Eye is a phone number, Dan Mantis here in Fragarean, Eric. This morning, they returned Sunday Night Monday morning. Every Friday night Sunday morning covering everything that is going on in Iran. Right now, we do still have a bombs dropping across the Middle East. Iran is bombing places like Dubai. We continue our missile brush against the Iranian government, the Iranian missile installations as well.
A lot of saber rattling where the Iranians have been saying that they are going to hit America like something we've never seen before and our allies and our interests in the Middle East.
Donald Trump is saying, "No, you better not do that. We've already shown you what we can do and we can do a lot more." There's a lot of words we have a lot of missiles dropping as well. There's one story that is out there before I get to this audio and what happened in the United Nations on Saturday. There is one story where supposedly there was a girls school in Iran that was hit by a missile. One of our missiles is what the Iranians are reporting with a bunch of girls killed. The reality is there are people inside Iran that are actually saying it was an Iranian missile that actually and we've certainly seen this before. It was an Iranian missile that took out the girl's school and they are trying to blame America.
We've certainly seen Hamas do the same thing when the battle was going on with Israel. So this happened in the United Nations just really quickly as there is a war of words between the representative from Iran and our own ambassador Mike Walts. The United States to be polite. It will be better for yourself and the country will represent it. Thank you. So the representative of Iran is telling us to be polite.
I'm not going to digify this with another response especially as this represe...
Yeah, I mean, look, I mean, obviously he's right and as I've been saying stating throughout the program, there are some very serious concerns with all of this. I know that the president, his heart is in the right place and I understand why he's doing what he's doing.
“There are just some nagging concerns that I've been talking about in covering number one, what is next for Iran and number two, what about threats at home?”
We're going to get into some details coming up next because we know that Joe Biden had a wide open border and because of that it lends the opportunity for some really, really bad people to come into our country and friends. We had four years of that and so now as I said previously in the show, there's a lot of smarter people than me that are saying, you know what here in America.
We are now in danger and we're going to talk about that coming up sky Jennings posting this senior Trump administration officials.
“He says are telling me he says that credible intelligence indicated Iran was planning preemptive missile strikes against US military targets in the region and against civilian targets as well.”
We are going to talk about that coming up. We are going to talk about that coming up here to act would have resulted in mass US casualties. That was sky Jennings and that was Donald Trump and his justification for doing what he did and I will tell you again, even though I have concerns about the whole notion of regime change.
I also do understand why the president did what he had to do. Got a lot more straight ahead on Red I radio.
“From the United and America studios. Now for Gary McNamara and Eric Hurley, here is Dan Mendus.”
86690, Red I is the phone number, 8669073339. So we are live by the way, Saturday night Sunday morning. Dan Mendus in for Gary and Eric and they're back on Sunday night Monday morning, but we are live special weekend edition of Red I radio and keeping you. A press and updated of everything that is going on in Iran and across the Middle East is you perhaps know the Trump administration and Israel. They were able to take out Iotola al-Khamani the former now supreme leader of Iran and they are responding to that with bombs dropping in places like Dubai and all across the Middle East.
Our assets you definitely want to pray for our troops tonight and also their dropping bombs Iran is dropping bombs on our allies in the Middle East as well. So there is a lot going on and a super text line is something that I use and my morning show routine on super talk 297 WTN in Nashville, Tennessee. And if you want to listen to that radio program, you can find out more about me at 997wtn.com and also on all of the socials at Dan Mendus show. There is a lot of celebration going on all across the world I've been documenting that for you this is.
This is an Iranian influencer and she is I will tell you one of the more popular ones and you know she she has a message for Donald Trump supporters listen to this. The celebration is striking we got here just moments after initial reports initial rumors of the death of Iotola al-Khamani had just started to trickle from Iran to this diaspora community.
And people were jumping in excitement hugging each other crying saying that basically they've been waiting 47 years for this very day.
When is the last time you saw people in Israel and Iran dancing on the streets in excitement and when is the last time you've ever heard of a country coming out and dancing because they're excited that foreign powers are attacking them.
Yeah, I mean there there is a lot of celebration going on and you know it doe...
I do want to play this audio this is from an influencer from Iran and she is very outspoken against the Iranian regime.
“Iranian here with a message for every single American who voted for President Trump from the bottom of my heart thank you.”
God bless President Trump God bless the US military and God bless America.
We can't wait until Iran is free and we can welcome you back to our country with open arms and be the allies that we used to be before the Islamic regime took over our country in 1979.
“That's it. Thank you. Thank you so much and God bless America.”
Daily mail and it is if you listen at all to talk radio this is not a surprise to you, but it is a reminder headline Iranian sleeper agents have infiltrated the US now X FBI boss warns of imminent terror attacks on American soil and exactly how they will strike.
I said earlier in the broadcast that Joe Biden's legacy will live on for generations with all of the bad guys that he let in through our wide open border for political reasons.
“And so we have of course a lot of illegal aliens coming into our country we've got you know the drug cartels and you know rapists and murderers and all of the things that Donald Trump has said which is all true by the way.”
You may get tired of hearing it, but it is true. But also the sleeper sells a former FBI boss has issued a stark warning over fears Iran could activate sleeper agents in America to carry out terror attacks on American soil as vengeance for Saturday's bombardment. The former assistant FBI director his name is Chris Swecker. He was an assistant FBI director in the mid 2000s saying that he's bullet and other Iran linked groups may feel they have nothing left to lose after Trump unleashed operation epic fury this weekend.
We're telling the Daily Mail we've got a cornered animal here in Iran and if ever we're going to see attacks on the United States this would be the catalyst for that. It is a tinder box he says right now, Swecker said you've got the leadership of Iran in a state of desperation. He added that while Iran linked sleeper sells may previously have hesitated out of fear of US retaliation that may no longer be the case after the joint US and Israeli strikes this weekend. He urged the FBI and the intelligence community to be on their toes and assume there are plans on going for terror attack in the United States. And by the way, a cash betel and others in the in the security arena have said basically the same thing that the terror alert here in our country really is it and it a I'm not going to say a record level, but it is incredibly high.
Marker telling the Daily Mail there is no question that sleeper sells linked to Iran exist in the US you know somebody said to me and it was on the the text line 615737 9986 if you can't call in text in. They've been living here these Iranians sleeper sells they've been living here and they've been enjoying American freedom they've been enjoying the accoutrements of of living in America so you know maybe these asleeper sells from Iran or wherever they may be from maybe they have enjoyed Western culture enough that they won't try to engage in terrorism or terrorist attacks.
But you know somebody's 9/11 high-chackers had been here a long time and they still took out there a terror tax and so for me I would hope and I obviously believe the FBI will do everything they can to prevent these attacks. Swecker again telling the Daily Mail there is no question that sleeper sells linked to Iran exist in America he says we know that they are mainly here to raise funds through different frauds.
He said food stamp frauds and snap fraud just various crimes I mean listen.
So he's stressing this guy's weaker stressing that he does not have current intelligence now that he has retired but based on his experience sleeper sells are lying in wait for an order. Now with Ayatola Al-Qamini having been killed earlier today or Saturday the question is who would that order come from we know the Islamic Revolutionary Guard they've they've actually said they will not go quietly and so that is all part of the discussion he says these people would be awakened to act.
“And more from financing cells into for example committing violence he said terror tax on American soil are unlikely to be highly sophisticated.”
I mean here's the deal is they they could take out a mall a sporting event if they could there's a lot of things that they could do and I don't want to scare folks but you do need to as they say keep your head on a swivel. He says I'm sure that they've been paying attention to what has happened in Iran just now and what's been going on over the past five years or six years.
Here in America attacks we've had you know low level attacks we've had loan wolf attacks and so forth so near the bottom line is they do know how to do what they need to do.
The phone number eight six six ninety red eye eight six nine zero seven thirty three thirty nine so as I said you know you got to keep your head on the swivel. The FBI is on alert they are ensuring that they know where the threats are they're going to be watching for threats and we'll have to see ultimately.
“I'm going to play some audio from and I did play this in the previous hour but I I want to replay this and I'm going to replay this for a reason.”
The reaction from the Democrats by the way coming up in the next hour I'm going to play the open from Saturday night live that's something you've got to hear and you'll probably hear it first here on red eye radio because not a lot of folks out there watch Saturday night live live these days they encounter. And they like to watch the clips but this is Senator Mark Kelly talking about. Donald Trump going into Iran on Saturday. Hey folks this this morning. The United States while this administration launched a major attack on on Iran as I see this hey there's no real plan here.
“So he says that there is no real plan here which obviously is silly and I spoke about this before there clearly is.”
A plan it's was a well executed plan as a matter of fact racial mad out had this to say.
And when you Donald Trump in your baseball hat proclaimed on that weird taped message today that the Iranian police and the security forces in the Revolutionary Guard must surrender.
They must lay down their weapons as Donald Trump said this morning at 2.30. If that was what you wanted to happen because you wanted the domestic security situation to become less dangerous for the Iranian people to rise up and overthrow their government. If you actually wanted to make that happen instead of just saying it you as the US government maybe you as the US government coalition with other allies that you might have bothered to bring on board. You might have given the Iranian police and revolutionary garden security services some instructions on how to surrender and lay down their weapon.
So I ran out of time when I play that particular audio by in the previous hour or so. As far as Donald Trump telling the Islamic Revolutionary Guard what steps to take clearly that is happening behind the scenes of course it is. And right now they are in military strike period the Islamic Revolutionary Guard they've got to feel the heat so they have got to decide. And experience that the firepower of the United States is here and it's going to be here as long as it needs to to be there in Iran. And the crippled military infrastructure of Iran the I'm assuming rapidly diminishing Islamic Revolutionary Guard as well.
They are going to feel the heat they are going to feel the very real possibility of death.
And that is when they will decide to ultimately lay down their arms will have to see if they decide to do that or not and as as feared as the Islamic Revolutionary Guard is.
The reality is we've got a lot of bombs we've got a lot of weapons and clearly we're not afraid to use them.
Probably could have taken some steps to help that happening to make sure they...
She's talking about Donald Trump and this this theoretically this lack of a plan.
“The Donald Trump supposedly has doesn't have which is a plan she says.”
I'm not sure if it's going to make it a plan. I'm deeply concerned that President Trump is breaking his promises to American people yet once again he said it would get us out of four of awards and yet here we go he's putting American lives and national security at risk by these strikes on Iran.
It's clear to me that this is a long planned deeply calculated move by him.
I'm a little confused because she said that Donald Trump has you know a plan you just heard her that that is what the Tammy Duckworth just said this is part of a long planned.
“Deep play calculated move but I didn't mark Kelly just say as I see this say there's no real plan here.”
So Tammy Duckworth says that Donald Trump did have a plan and had went for a long time yet you have Mark Kelly saying as I see this say there's no real plan here.
I don't really understand okay so does he have a plan did he not have a plan whatever he here's my thing.
Donald Trump has been saying for a long time that Iran cannot have nuclear weapons. I'm going to bomb the sh*t out of him. Yeah, it's true. I don't care. I don't care. They've got to be stopped. So yes Donald Trump did have a plan and is now executing that plan. Got a lot more straight ahead. This is Red Eye Radio. I'm getting much with Red Eye Radio toll-free at 8.6 Monday Red Eye.
