Alldee. "Botus für alle." Donald Trump and Magar Republicans are in full terror after Donald Trump surrendered to Iran as I noted earlier. Donald Trump is no longer even trying to do a deal with Iran in the United States.

Instead, Donald Trump's latest threats are Iran. You've got to make a deal with Oman or else. And then we're going to take credit for that deal because Trump is incapable of making a deal. Americans did not want to be involved in this catastrophic war ever.

Donald Trump promised it was going to be a complete victory, despite the fact that Americans did not want to be in this catastrophic war and America saw the entire country put through a daily humiliation ritual as Donald Trump would threaten war crimes on Iran, then back out, threaten war crimes in Iran, and back out. And threaten more war crimes and back out.

And now our economy is suffering, Trump, though, continues to manipulate the markets. And Magar Republicans are out there in panic mode. I'll show you. And Trump cabinet members right now, like Brooke Rollins, you know, she's out there in Minnesota.

“And she's like, we delivered, we got rid of the crazy woke huh?”

We got rid of the crazy woke huh? We anti woke. This is what you're doing right now with everything that's going on right now. We've got rid of the eight work in there, Brooke here play this clip. With my boss President Trump and what he was trying to figure out was if we've got a,

we got a, we got a, we got a deliver on our promises. We promised a smaller government, we promised to deregulate. We promised tax cuts. We promised to get rid of all the crazy woke. And then she was like, hey, everybody give us applause because Trump has done more

for farmers than anybody. Well, maybe he's done more bailouts for farmers after bankrupting the farmers. But this is what the Trump administration officials are doing now here play this clip.

And the biofuels industry has never had a bigger backer, a more vocal backer.

Then my boss President Donald Trump, this spring he announced, I think this may be due for another applause, this spring he announced the highest renewable volume obligation RVO's in the history of the program. How about that? Yeah, that's a big deal for this state, a big deal.

Then they send out Dr. Oz and Dr. Oz is like, when I'm lying to you and you know I'm lying to you and I know that you know I'm lying to you and on and on and on, that's how countries collapse.

“Yeah, we know that's what's happening here.”

Play this clip. Texas, I think there's a bigger problem here. And this is not fraudwaisted and abused by itself. This is corruption on the underlying system. When you corrupt the practices that right out the foundation of the boat that we're all

in together and we start taking on water because they're pointing fingers.

But when everyone is doing it, which is maybe the most important quote from this press

conference, not said by any of us up here, that's a real pathology because then if you're not part of the corrupt system, you're a fool. When I'm lying to you and you know I'm lying to you and I know that you know that I'm lying to you and on and on and on, that's how countries collapse. Thank you.

Oh, and then you have a Magari public in a Senator don't let him even consider call them self-assentress. John Cornin say there's nothing that he and the GOP can ever do for survivors and yes, they didn't want Todd Blanche confirmed because he's covering up the Epstein files and then he further tormented them.

But Cornin's like, there's nothing we can do. And we know because you're all part of the Epstein class. You are involved in the cover up of the Child Sex Trafficking Ring by not releasing the Epstein files and confirming Blanche in my opinion. Here play this clip right here.

Senator, you're democratic colleagues seem to think that this is your vote. Yes, on financials can have a chilling effect once survivors of sexual assault and things like that. Would you respond to them? They were frustrated that you didn't give them a person to it.

So what happened to them is a tragedy, and we know that people have been convicted of trafficking in crimes and Epstein is no longer no longer with us. But I don't believe there's anything we could do to suede them at this point, but we need to continue to help them every way we can, but I just think that's one of those things that cannot be remedied by a no vote.

And let me just show you what some of the polling looks like for Trump out today. The aggregate of this stuff from Harry Enten Donald Trump, the worst position ever right now according to Enten's aggregate, you're playing this clip. President Trump thinks his own polls are good. He has simply put not on planet Earth.

He is on some planet far, far, far, far away, and a galaxy far, far, far away. I mean, just look at this. It has been a steady decline, like a slide going into the sea. You know, you go back January, 2025 plus six, may have 25 minus seven. September of 2025 minus eight, December of 2025 minus 13, April of 2026 minus 17.

And now in an average of polls, he is 21 points underwater. This is the lowest he has been in term number two.

The bottom line is this, Trump is at record lows for himself in term number two.

He is very much underwater despite whatever he is claiming up in his head of his slide

“going into the sea, evocative imagery there from Harry, when did this slide begin?”

When did this slide begin? When it just slide into the sea, we get, I mean, just take a look here. You know, if you one thing, again, if we were talking about just one poll, but we're talking about the average polls, but when we're talking about one poll, is there any poll that has Trump anywhere close to positive territory?

Take a look here, Trump's negative net approval rating. Every single poll that meets CNN standards for publication has had Donald Trump underwater in the negative since March 29 of 2025. Days in a row, it is 494 nearly 500 days in which Donald Trump has had a negative net approval rating.

They're close to positive. Lou Gehrig. He is the Lou Gehrig, the cow rip again of negative rating. But people would say, hey, look, the president had little approval ratings in his first term also.

Not this low, not this low, take a look here, Trump's net approval rating at this point. And term one at this point, he was 12 points underwater. He is now broken the 20 point barrier in the negative minus 20 points.

And you know, I always love a little nugget here goes from minus eight to minus 47 points

with independence. We're driving this. The production of the production of markets say this means about his chances of maintaining control of the house. Yeah, okay.

If you're having a negative 21 net approval rating, no way you're a party controls the house. If this holds until election day, chance to win the house, Democrats now up to an 84% chance up from 73% just a few months ago, Republicans now would just a 16% chance according to catch prediction markets.

Trump's negative net approval rating is Trump. What about even moderate Republicans?

“What do they think amongst Trump's own party Republicans?”

He only has a plus 10 approval down from plus 69 in 2024. I mean, it is a 59 point drop. You're watching what sentence says here. Yeah, okay. So, you know, we often talk about all that conservative base, that market base.

Well, how about where the other GOP lives? That is moderate Republicans capable of a moderate Republicans and in a word, yikes, yikes is the word. Okay, take a look at this, the moderate GOP on Trump. This includes leaners.

This is about 30 to 40% of the party depending on how you exactly look at. Versus common Harris, Trump easily was winning amongst them by 69 points back in October of 2024. Come over to this side of the screen. Look at this decline in the lake, eerie.

I mean, right now we're talking about us, we're talking about just a plus 10 net approval ring. This is within his own party.

“This is within his own party, he's just barely above water.”

Do the quick math of me. That's 69, 10, that's a 59 point drop that is 5 and 9 in the course of under 2 years, so moderate Republicans, abandoning Donald John Trump. Now I want to bring in Democratic Congress member, Raja Christomorthy Congress member,

great to see it as always at the beginning.

I was talking about how, you know, yet again, Congress is in recess, the house is in recess. I mean, you know, yes, there's an election or less than, you know, 100 days and yes, there's usually a summer recess, but when you take as many breaks as magamike as recess, this house of representatives, when we're in this catastrophic war and Donald Trump one day threatens, I'm going to blow the effing S out of a country.

And then he comes up with imaginary fake negotiations that aren't taking place, meanwhile Iran continues to strike the U.S. bases because they don't see it as a ceasefire. I mean, they're not going with his imaginary narratives. I mean, he engaged, he invaded them. And so they're like, yeah, we're in a war.

And now we learned that America is out of attackums and interceptors, not like our stockpiles depleted. But according to some of the latest reporting, it's like, we don't have, the public reporting is almost like, we don't have weapons. And my broader point is like, where's Congress?

Like, this is that the quite literally the job. And it's like, okay, summer, chill.

Well, what's going on is, you know, basically Congress has become a fully own subsidiary of Trump

Inc. And the White House, and at this point, you know, Mike Johnson and the Republicans would just prefer to put his interests above their own constituents interests. And those of the country, you're right, by the way, with regards to the munitions issue, it's pretty serious.

We're not only running low on attackums, we're running low on Tomahawk's, which are our long-range precision fires that would be necessary for holding off adversaries. We're low on SN3 interceptors and Patriots.

“That's what provides our, basically our ballistic missile defense, especially the fads,”

which we're also low on.

And so we're kind of in this situation where we basically expose ourselves, we're lowering

our deterrence, we're inviting aggression. And I think we're sliding towards war. I'm just going to say it. I think we're sliding towards yet another war. And it's not the one we're currently in, but war with other adversaries, because they're

going to take advantage of this situation and make more provocative moves. And that could really escalate very quickly. Well, you know, our adversaries or countries that there is, you know, you know, I, to that point, Donald Trump though almost doesn't see the adversaries as the adversaries as the adversaries.

“So, what, when you say that, I hear that, but I think to myself, who does Donald Trump”

see as an adversary, Canada, Greenland, Spain, you know, Europe, I mean, that's who he sees as an adversary. I mean, I hear you probably implying what's going to happen with China, what's going to happen with Russia, what's going to happen with North Korea as these countries start to see. U.S. is out of weapons, baby, we're going to start making our moves because, you know,

he ran out. So he can't protect, you know, he, no umbrella in Asia, no umbrella over here anymore.

There have Arab umbrellas over, but then I think, you know, Trump's given China, basically

the top semi-conductor chips, I mean, he's given UAE the Blackwell, which they can just basically give to, you know, China and he gives China the other one, the second NVIDIA chip that's basically like the black. So I guess my point is is that, you know, maybe the only calculus for them is just like David, just let him keep on going, he's destroying the whole country.

“You know, I think that this is where I see things kind of potentially breaking down, which”

is that he may not view them as adversaries. They view us as adversaries, and if they act according to their viewpoint, then he could be put into a situation where we're left with no choice, we're dragged into a conflict. And at that point, it doesn't really matter what Donald Trump believes, the reality will be screaming that we have to protect our soldiers, protect our interests, and we may be

in conflict. And so we've got to do the exact opposite of what we're doing right now. We've got to end this illegal and unconstitutional work. And by the way, you know, every day that we fail to win ourselves off the very fossil fuel that they have a chokehold on, namely the Iranians, we're giving them more and more leverage,

which really hurts our ability at the bargaining table to do anything to resolve the situation either. So we can't resolve this militarily, and we're not going to be able to resolve it on proper terms at the bargaining table, the more leverage that we give the Iranians, and the less that we do to win ourselves off fossil fuels, start to develop these renewable

energy technologies and EV technologies, which, unfortunately, the Trump administration is asked, the tune of 2 to 300 projects at the Department of Energy already. It's very focused on gilding, bronze statues, gold, and golden ballrooms, and something about the red bricks that he was talking about yesterday. I mean, you have access to certain information that the public doesn't, you know, that

you see and skips in other places, and so I know there are probably some things. You can share, you can share, but when you say, it appears we're moving potentially towards war in other directions, meaning outside of the one that we're aware of right now. What can, you know, I don't want to leave our viewers totally hanging, you know, with this statement like that, so what can you share about what you know that you feel

comfortable sharing? Well, I think we're, you know, definitely starting to enter a dangerous phase in the Indo-Pacific region, especially with regard to China, China's throwing its elbows militarily

ocean that it claims as its own kind of internal body of water.

“Then of course, there's Taiwan, which Xi Jinping has tasked the People's Liberation Army”

with successfully conquering potentially by 2027. And so we're entering this dangerous phase, where Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party have certain deadlines, are seeing their power start to peak in certain ways, even at the same time that they're seeing our munitions at an all-time low, they're seeing our alliances and partnerships free.

And so it's a very fraught moment where they could say, look, this is the time to strike. We're not going to find a better time than now. And if that happens, you know, Katy Bar the Door, this could be just a catastrophic situation for America. I can only imagine, I mean, you know, they clearly see that we're out of weapons.

I mean, like, I mean, we're out of weapons in the United States of Earth for the trillions of dollars that were funded to the military industrial complex were out of weapons. And not only that, but Trump's been putting the weapons in the wrong thing. He wants to build the Trump, the Trump gigantic ships, you know. And it's like, we're in droneware, fireware, we're in unmanned submersives.

“You want to build ships that look like, what is he's at?”

I love the way the ships look like in World War I and World War II these days. I don't like stealth. I don't like the way it looks. I don't like the way it looks. You know, and it goes to this broader point, you know, it's like, I don't like stealth.

Okay. We don't care if you don't like it. It's stealth. Man, what are you talking about? I don't like aircraft carriers.

I don't like, okay, I don't like the drug. Okay. There's this kind of common sense disconnect.

“And, you know, just let's just switch topics for a second for a moment.”

It's like, you know, we all look at the post-service saying we want to get our mail. The post-service looks at the post-service and says, how can I withhold people's votes from this post-service? Like, no, just give us my freaking mail, man. I just want the mail, stop making this post-service weird.

I just want the mail to get from point A to point B and receive it and open up my letters. And then I don't need you to have a post-service, you know, ahead of the post-service who's out there, like a political guy who's like, I'm not going to deliver mail on elections. Crazy.

Yeah, it's absolutely nuts. Look, the post-service has already been in decline over the past several years because Trump

installed a guy named Postmaster General DeJoy when he first entered office and Trump

termed one. That guy totally hurt the post-service mail is not arriving on time primarily because of quote-unquote reforms that he put in place, now Trump wants to use the Post-a-Service to essentially withhold election mail, mail and ballots, basically from people that he deems not to be citizens, not to be eligible voters.

Well, guess how he's going to determine that. He's going to first state to turn over their voter roles to the federal government to be screened by Donald Trump and DHS, and once they get screened, then the Post-a-Service will deliver mail and ballots to quote-unquote eligible voters. That is not only illegal under our privacy laws and other protections, but it's also illegal

under the Constitution because the federal government does not have primary authority for elections, and yet he's now using the U.S. Post-a-Service as an instrument for voter suppression. Now, the U.S. Post-a-Service for its part is supposed to stay out of politics completely and the Post-Master General is supposed to do the same.

Instead, he has allowed himself, he's enabled Trump to use the U.S. P.S. in an illegal unconstitutional way. So I'm calling for his removal now, his name is Steiner, Post-Master General Steiner, the same way I did with DeJoy. These guys have got to go, and we've got to get our U.S. Post-a-Service back.

It used to be one of the most trusted institutions in America, and unfortunately, it's also following on hard times, thanks to Donald Trump.

Yeah, and finally, it used to be a trusted organization, the Department of Justice.

I mean, you and I, both lawyers, working at the DOJ after law school, was the biggest honor of the top lawyers when, at some point, trying to want to work at the DOJ, maybe before

of regularity, where a federal prosecutor shows up in court, and the judge basically says,

we trust what you're saying, because you're the DOJ, and you also don't get that benefit when you were on the other side of the DOJ, in a case. But now they're basically viewed as a firm on, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I'm offended, I'm sure they're good firms on Ventura Boulevard out here in California, but you know, like a small Ventura Boulevard, you know, lemon law firm that has been sanctioned

repeatedly by courts for, you know, whatever, for recruiting clients, let's like, I'm going to take the analogy, because they're good lemon lawyers are good small law firms,

they're good firms of Ventura Boulevard, I don't want to offend any target audience there,

but the point is, is that you and I when we would go into court, we would see some firms that were like, man, how this person even passed the bar exam, and then courts would yell

“at these lawyers, and you'd be like, oh my god, is it bad lawyers crazy?”

And the DOJ is that, and it may be even worse than that. And now Blanche is doing settlement, you know, he's doing the order where he says that I'm revoking the prior order, but I'm affirming that Trump gets tax immunity, given that I tax immunity, and that's enough for tilless and corn, and, you know, we narrowed the scope of it. I'm like, what do you mean you narrowed the scope of, you've affirmed that Trump and his

kids and all of the trust get tax immunity from the day of the settlement, going back in time forever. That says expansive as it could possibly be, you didn't narrow anything, but the American people get it, you know, Roger, the American people like, what is this?

“It's a different system of justice, you know, this Ben look, I think there's a system of justice”

now that applies to billionaires and people like Trump, and then there's a system of justice that applies to the rest of us. And I think that just to take another example, let's just look at the Epstein affair, you know, this guy Donald Trump is out there prosecuting, quote, "vandles," who supposedly have ruined the reflecting pool.

And yet he has not filed a single charge or announced a single investigation of anyone beyond Jeffrey Epstein and Elaine Maxwell. And for Maxwell, he's transferred her to a low security prison in the hope that she would quote, unquote, exonerate him for many wrongdoing in the Epstein affair. That is this type of justice that we have right now.

“And I think that goes to what you were talking about with regard to the DOJ and his credibility,”

which is shot, it's completely shot at this point. Thanks to its prioritization of, you know, crazy issues that Donald Trump makes to be the issue of the day, going after his political enemies, going after others who might kind of cross him and not going after the people's business and not trying to even, you know, bring justice to the thousands of girls now middle-aged women who have yet to receive

a single Iota of justice after decades of abuse at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein and others. So this is a very sad moment.
