Donald Trump is closing down the White House all day today to the press.
As Iran is refusing to even allow him to surrender, Donald Trump is saying Iran, you can
control the straight of Hormuz. Can you please just open it up and Iran's like nope, UOS reparations?
“You need to make sure that Israel leaves Lebanon and you need to get the United States”
military out of the region. Then maybe we'll consider opening up the straight of Hormuz. Donald Trump's like, "Please can I try to say face and Iran's like, no, we're not going to let you do it." And Iran hit another tanker yesterday in the straight of Hormuz.
The Houthis hit hard in eastern Saudi Arabia in jubal, another aromco facility was hit very hard there. The Houthis struck hard in northern Yemen and other areas of Yemen against the Saudi back hoops there. And so Iran's saying absolutely not just look at Donald Trump's press schedule for today.
Close 8am, 930, 1232, 245, 630 p.m. The American people are demanding answers. What the hell is happening, right? Donald Trump gave that, I don't want to call it an interview. He called up his personal stenographer at Axios Barak Ravid and said, "We're just going
to play it low key with Iran right now. We're not really even negotiating. We're going to do semi-negotiation." And we're just going to let it be because if we do nothing, then Iran is definitely going to just fall.
That's the new line from the Trump regime.
“We're going to go low key with this right now and just let things evolve naturally and”
we'll just see what happens. I mean, by the way, Donald Trump's just been looking awful.
He's last couple of weeks, I mean, he's always looked awful.
But remember how he looked a few weeks back. And then yesterday, he was that bed minister in New Jersey. He was doing this weird stuff with some like the gold coin thing that he hands out or some fake gold coin. You see Natalie Harp in the background right there.
That's Donald Trump's human printer. Other people call her his other things. Some people say caretaker, some people say other thing. But that's Donald Trump, you see the him there with Eric. He's doing what the hell is Donald Trump even doing there.
And then because he looked so awful, he was posting all of these AI images of himself because if you look at how he really looks, it's bad. So here's an AI image he posted of himself and Gary player at bed minister. He's like, with the great Gary player today at bed minister, that's not what you look like.
And folks, those bruises that are on both of his hands and on his neck, they're spreading all up his arm right now. Zoom in right there. He is physically and cognitively declining quickly. And I know corporate news doesn't want to talk about it.
Oh, we can't talk about, no, we'll talk about it here. That this dude is cognitively and physically declining quickly. But he posted the following as well, 51 years of bad behavior, Iran has no money. He posts on social media and then he very quickly starts to post a photo of the 10th hole at the golf course.
The 10th hole at Trump International Golf Club, Palm Beach County, Florida, the hell are you posting? The American people can't afford homes, they can't afford groceries, they can't afford gas, you're talking about low-king, the negotiations with Iran or you're not even negotiating, you're doing a quote, "Semi-negotiation is what you told Barak Ravid, while we see the
hootheous control of the Red Sea, Iran controls the straight of hormones. You look utterly lost and confused and scared. But you're showing what the 10th hole of the International Golf Club looks like while you griffed in the Oval Office and we're just learning even more disturbing details about the extent to which he's grifting, like we know he's made billions of dollars.
That's a undisputed fact, grifting from the Oval Office and all of these quid pro quo deals with foreign countries and with companies and 21,000 stock trades. He has all the insider information, he manipulates the markets during the war and then he engages in all of these trades, but when you zoom in a little bit too on the crypto
money, what he brought in like $1.4 billion on crypto, take a look at this investigative
piece from the times, so from that $1.4 billion most of its anonymous.
“We don't know who gave Trump that money and that's what we know about that $1.4 billion.”
I'm willing to guess and go ahead and let me here again, I'm just giving you my opinion that it's actually a lot more money than $1.4 billion, but that $1.4 billion is mostly
Anonymous, but when we find out like the New York Times did where some of tha...
from, here's where $100 million came from, so the president's recent financial disclosure
“shows that he collected $1.4 billion for his crypto business last year, the majority from”
anonymous sources, but here's $100 million from someone who refers to himself as a business man, but there are lots of red flags here. The curious case of Guren Bobby Zow shows the ease with which investors with shady backgrounds and unknown motivations can funnel money to the president, the word investors also and business man doing a lot of work there in New York Times.
During the World Cup soccer final in New Jersey last month, Zach Wood Coff, co-founder of Trump's crypto company, the son of Steve Wood Coff, who is not appointed to be a diplomat, but is negotiating with a runner or semi-neg-- or not doing anything, but he's the guy who goes to Russia when he sees Putin, he puts his hand on his heart, he's like the scummy landlord dude from New York City, real estate who had, in my opinion, not the greatest reputation
out there, he would talk about it, he'd show up with guns to like collect rent and Harlem,
“I think there were stories about him, like, okay, so he's Trump's real estate guy from New”
York, and he's now like the main negotiator with no foreign policy background anyway, his son, Zach, was chilling with this guy, Bobby Zow, at the luxury box, at the World Cup in New Jersey, two years earlier, that man, Guren Bobby Zow was a failed hardwood flooring retailer in Britain, who had come under investigation there for money laundering and presided over the collapse of a small crypto startup. Then seemingly out of nowhere, he became one of the biggest
buyers of tokens from Mr. Trump's company world liberty financial, dropping a total of $100
million dollars through a new firm called Aqua One. Wow, do the, do the Republicans care,
where, where, where, where's, where's all those, uh, oversight Republicans, right, all those who were talking about Hunter Biden, Hunter Biden, this Hunter Biden, that, you want to actually look at real stuff and want to talk about real stuff by the way, too. I don't want to lose sight, there's so much that floods the zone with this despicable creature in the oval office, but you got to talk about what's going on in big bend also, the national park in Texas, West
Texas, right by the Rio Grande. So the Trump regime is basically using eminent domain to see them to seize massive amounts of territory, right by big bend national park to build kind of like a performative wall and to put all of this electronics or valence there saying that this is going to stop immigrants coming into the United States like there's very little immigration at all that comes through that area almost none and they're using eminent domain to seize all of
this land from West Texas. They're destroying this beautiful landscape so that Donald Trump could give billions of dollars to his contract buddies to just demolish this national park. It's actually horrific when it's going on and it removes access to the Rio Grande, it removes access to water and it's just taken away people's land over there. It's James Tolerika who's running for
“Senate calling it out saying what the hell are you doing? Speaking about what the hell are you doing?”
This is real, this is not parity. This is what Sean Duffy, the transportation secretary announced last night. I kid you not, this is real. So you know how all the air traffic controllers have left and doge got rid of all of these highly qualified and competent people who were working in
air traffic control, working with airplanes, critical functions, right for safety. What we ran
out of the qualified people because they got fired or pushed out or the working conditions were so bad that they retired. So what Duffy says is in April, we launched a new campaign to recruit video gamers as air traffic controllers and supercharged the entire hiring process to get the best and brightest faster. The results are historic, 94% of hiring goal met fastest time ever to reach target, 2000 higher, the most in a single year, 2000 quote best and brightest and quote candidates
in the pipeline reaching the Academy quicker than any class before them. We're building the strongest, sharpest workforce in aviation history. I'll just play you 24 seconds of this video that he dropped. This is real, this isn't an SNL skit and let me be clear also. I think it is possible
That gamers could perhaps, like, I mean, I don't, I don't have anything I lik...
you know, I'm not a gamer when I was growing up. I played game. I don't, I don't do it anymore. I think that gamers are great people. But just because you're a gamer doesn't mean you automatically
“become an air traffic control specialist. I think most gamers should realize just because you're”
good at grand theft auto. Does it mean that you get fast tracked versus the air traffic controllers who spent all the years and years training when we talk and about this is real. Watch the 20, I'm not going to play the full video. You'll get the just from this 24 seconds here play this clip. You guys are trying to recruit gamers? They probably solve their spatially aware. They do multiple things at the same time. I've been a gamer most of my life. They are looking
for people to play with video games. Okay. Well, that definitely fits me. Yeah, you know, I'm one of it. You can merge gaming with aviation. Why not? It's like the best of both worlds. I actually
encounter the gamer ad. I grew a plan a lot of flight simulators. I've always loved airplanes. Yeah,
simularies making this. And finally, that brings me to Michigan. Got to give a hat tip to this incredible
“speech there by California governor Gavin Newsom. Here's what he said in Michigan. Let's play it.”
Now, we have a crash. Literally have flipped 30 seats from red to blue. We have not lost one. It's all about engineering. It's all about engineering in New Jersey. They're going to win. You have chosen wisely. But the work is again in front of you. So thank you for everything you've done. But more importantly, thank you for what you'll do over the course of the next few days. Because one thing we don't do, we don't run the 90 yard dash. We can't take anything for granted. And this is
the message I want to leave with you. Because what we're up against is ruthlessness. I know what thing or two about it. More from governor Newsom there as well. Let's play it. We're polarized. You feel traumatized by this moment, this invasive species. We have no way out of this. Literally. Yes, not many Republicans disagree with that either. But you're here. Not just for Alex and Sarah, not just for the speaker and waiting, but you're here for each other. And so I just
want to thank you. And I'm here in that spirit as well. We're all bound together. That's just a church. All bound together by a web of YouTube. Many parts one body. You matter. And we care all across this country. People are waking up. We're stepping up. We're meeting the moment. We recognize we have agency. We're not bystanders in the world. We can shape the future. The future is not in one of us. It's inside of us. It's decisions. Not conditions. We'll determine our fate in the future.
Then I'll leave you with this over here. Doctor, I'm dual-el-scied. He was asked a question on meet the press. Watch this incredible powerful answer. Let's play a radical, dangerous,
how do you respond? We always knew they were going to go here. I mean, notice how they chose to use
the my full name in echoes to exactly what they did against President Obama. The end of the day, it's not radical to believe that people should be able to afford their groceries. It's not radical to
“believe that you should have health care in this country. It's not radical to believe that you don't”
think the president should be able to not deny elections or make $2.2 billion off of his role in office. It's not radical to believe that all of us should be able to breathe clean air and drink clean water. Those are the things that I've been fighting for. I believe in in America where all of us can come together to build together, government of the people by the people and for the people. Now they're going to try and paint me as a certain thing given my name. But I also think it's important
for us to recognize that America has a long history of embracing America as a lot bigger than very small people like Donald Trump or J.D. Vance or Mike Rogers want to make it out to be. And so I'm grateful for all that America has given me and I'm grateful for the opportunity now to put myself out there and ask my fellow mischaganders for their stay in our democracy to be able to build in America. That's more just and more equitable. That's more sustainable. That's more empowering.
That's more American than the vision that Donald Trump and J.D. Vance and Mike Rogers have for it. Well, there you have it folks. Let me know what you think. Hit subscribe. Let's get to seven
