My name's Mackenzie and I started to go fund me for the adoptive mother of a nonverbal, autistic child. The mother had lost her job because she wasn't able to find adequate care for this autistic child. So she really needed some help with living expenses, paying some back bills. So I launched a GoFundMe to help support them during this crisis. And we raised about $10,000 within just a couple of months. I think that the surprising thing was by telling a clear story and just like really being very clear about what we needed.

2:04We had some really generous donations from people who were really moved by the situation that this family was struggling with. GoFundMe is the world's number one fundraising platform trusted by over 200 million people. Start your GoFundMe today at GoFundMe.com. That's GoFundMe.com. GoFundMe.com.

He is lying now and saying that the United States is sending warships along with many other nations in order to stop Iran from continuing to block the straight of horror moves. This is likely news to these many other nations who have not made such a commitment. In fact, they are furious at the United States for launching this unlawful and disastrous invasion of Iran that has now embroiled the entire world in a war. You can see the panic oozing through Donald Trump's meltdown post this morning.

3:06Let me just show you what he is posting. Donald Trump writes, many countries, especially those who are affected by Iran's attempted closure of the horror moves straight, will be sending warships in conjunction with the United States of America to keep the straight, open and safe. So pause there. So we're sending the Navy into the straight of horror moves, Donald. Or are you just making that up? You're just making that up. And now you're saying that all these other nations will be joining our Navy and going into the straight of horror moves. They're not doing that. So when they read your messages, you just look utterly pathetic. Now this may work to your dwindling megabase here in the United States. But when you post things like this, it just makes the United States look so utterly weak just like you. Trump goes on to write, we have already destroyed 100% of Iran's military capability. But it's easy for them to send a drone or two,

4:07drop a mine or deliver a close-range missile somewhere along or in this waterway no matter how badly defeated they are. Okay, they have not been badly defeated. Their military capabilities have not been 100% destroyed. How do we know that? Because we see their attacks on the surrounding Arab nations where there are United States interests day in and day out. I'll get to more of that in a moment. Donald Trump then goes on to say in this post, hopefully China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK and others that are affected by this artificial constraint will send ships to the area so that the Hormuz straight will no longer be a threat by a nation that has been totally decapitated. They have not been totally decapitated. They had a relatively smooth transfer of power to the new Ayatollamon Jabba.

5:08We saw all of their top leadership marching in a parade at the end of last week. They've never actually been rallying more closer together than they are right now based on the actions by you and Netanyahu. You've turned any possible support for the United States away right now. And you also don't even understand the way world alliances work. The fact that you're lumping together China and Japan and South Korea and France and the UK and others, but this is going to be your coalition. You think this makes sense. You do realize that in Iran right now they are letting Chinese ships go through these straight of Hormuz because they are allied together. The same way Russia is allied with Iran and Iran is getting material support from Russia and likely China in this war against the United States and against Israel. Don't you see that that's what's happening? Are you too dense or are you just a liar about everything or probably just both here?

6:15Then Donald Trump goes on to continue to say in the meantime the United States will be bombing the hell out of the shoreline and continually shooting Iranian boats and ships out of the water. One way or the other we will soon get the Hormuz straight open safe and free. Don't you think you should have planned this? I don't know before your unlawful invasion of Iran. And then when you use language like we're going to bomb the hell out of the shoreline, don't you realize that it's language like that? And it's conduct like that that turns the entire world against you that makes you lose any type of public support you potentially can have. Don't you see that that's what rallies the Iranian people around the current Islamic Republic regime because they're thinking either we're going this direction you know with the current Islamic Republic and with Iran as is or we're going with the Epstein class.

7:16We're going with a guy covering up child sex trafficking who's talking about obliterating us and blowing us up to hell and we've seen what Israel did in Gaza. We see what they're doing in Lebanon. We see what they're doing right now. We see what the United States and why would we want to go with you? Don't you see that that's actually what's happening and you're solidifying the Islamic Republic regime right now when in war you probably want to try to make friends not enemies and build support and coalitions you don't get that do you Donald. You take a look what's happening right now videos being released as Donald Trump is posting that videos are being released showing large black smoke plumes rising from attacks carried out by Iran's unmanned aerial vehicles on oil faceted facilities. At the Fujara port in the United Arab Emirates take a look this is like their biggest oil port right here. You can see right here the local government confirms that Iranian drones targeted the area but they say that it was damaged from falling debris.

8:22That's the new thing that all these Arab nations are saying when their buildings get blown up by the Shahid drones they go wasn't a drone. It was the falling debris they're calling the drones the falling debris but you see what's going on right there. Oh and then Donald Trump posts the following as well yet again and intentionally misleading headline by fake news media about five tanker planes that were supposedly struck down at an airport in Saudi Arabia and have no further use in actuality. The base was hit a few days ago but the planes were not struck or destroyed four or five had virtually no damage they're already back in service one had slightly more damage but will be in the air shortly just pause there. One you're likely lying to if you're not why are you giving all of these operational details out there why are you posting all of these images and this is a war. You are giving the other side intelligence what why would you do that even if what you're saying is accurate what why would you say these things.

9:26Then he goes on to say one had slightly more damage none were destroyed but the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal and other low life papers and media actually want us to lose the war and the Wall Street Journal in particular wants us to lose the war. Their terrible reporting is the exact opposite of actual facts they are truly sick and demented people that have no idea the damage they caused the United States of America fortunately has proven by our great conclusive election in 2024 that people understand what is happening. Okay this is the most you want to talk about demented people put up a mirror to yourself everything that Donald Trump says is projection and confession as you know the Wall Street Journal reported how these five US tankers were struck and damaged on the grounds at the princelton air base in Saudi Arabia during an Iranian ballistic missile strike but hey Donald you know what you should probably be posting about as well. How those same types of planes the Casey one thirty five right that was the plane that went down as well over western Iraq the Casey one thirty five where six crew members were killed and it took you almost what a day and a half before admitting that that's what actually took place to the American people when anyone knows the way a Kate well you didn't admit it was sent comb and you haven't even addressed it yet.

10:50But everybody who knows the Casey one thirty five strato tankers know they don't have ejection methods they don't have parachutes if those things go down they're refueling planes so you know we all knew what the likely outcome was but the sent com still wanted to cover it up and I still think they're covering up how that plane fell from the sky in general they're saying it wasn't friendly fire it wasn't hostile fire so what happened it just crashed on its own it's more cover up from sent com and Donald Trump isn't even addressing it. Nothing what's happening not even addressing the casualties no post about that instead he's making fake posts about countries joining us in the straight of hormones just more lies and this as we learned that five thousand marine expeditionary forces are coming in from Japan this marine expeditionary unit is usually the precursor to a ground invasion. Donald Trump said he bombed the carg island in the northern Persian Gulf and their speculation is there going to be a ground invasion there is Donald Trump getting lured into this kind of ground war in Iran which would be utterly disastrous right now what we do know is this war is expanding as well and it's expanding its fronts and so you know you have different kind of points of where this war is taking place obviously in the Middle East

12:16and obviously it's from Russia's invasion of Ukraine at all which took place you know several years ago back from 2022 right and so you have right now Iran's kind of top national security advisor to their parliament a guy by the name of Ibrahim Azizi and he writes by providing drone support to the Israeli regime failed Ukraine has effectively become involved in the war and under article 51 of the United Nations charge. It's harder has turned its entire territory into a legitimate target of Iran while Iran was already targeting Ukraine those Shahed drones were being given to Putin over the past four years to attack Ukraine Ukraine has developed a real expertise in not just kind of the anti drone interceptors you have these drones that intercept drones but also the wherewithal of how to identify and locate these drones how do you use that?

13:16There's new satellite systems so Ukraine's been dealing with Iran and Shahed drones for a very long time and Trump refused to listen to Zelensky's warnings because Donald Trump believes that he's allied with Vladimir Putin while Putin's trying to destroy the United States of America but you see right now with Iran publicly basically saying under article 51 they're basically declaring war formally on Ukraine right now I think that is a big big deal in the sense of kind of formally saying that this war now is in the Middle East and the war in Russia's invasion of Ukraine what's going on there are now basically you know completely united. We knew this we've been saying this for a long time but now it's kind of formalized with what Iran saying under article 51 of the United Nations charter now and by the way Zelensky's trying to help the United States and Trump and Trump's like we don't need your drones we don't need what you're doing you know also in terms of the expansion of this war you have North Korea right now firing around 10 ballistic missiles earlier today toward the sea of Japan.

14:26So it's South Korea saying and North Korea is intensifying it's a furtive posture it's aggressive posture right now after the United States removed its fad and patriot systems from South Korea because as Trump was warned the United States is running out of munitions in the Middle East and so it needs these thad systems because Iran's been striking them in the Middle East and so we basically took the fad and patriot systems promised that there were a lot of war. Promise that we're given to South Korea moved into the Middle East and we also are now refusing to help Taiwan with the 13 12 13 billion dollars in military support and equipment that was congressional delegated to them as well also yesterday smoke was seen rising out of the U.S. Embassy compound in Baghdad Iraq you know it looked like some of the satellite systems on the top of the U.S. Embassy. That were hit by Iranian drones and it looked pretty bad yesterday once again the kind of common line that we've been getting right now from the Arab nations and from the United States is oh it wasn't a drone strike it was actually the debris from the interceptors or it was debris I mean the drone hit the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad last night it was in a heavily fortified area.

15:47And then just take a look at this footage showing the extensive damage in Lebanon in Beirut southern suburbs Israel is just like level this thing you know the you know Israel says it's going after his bowl but you know they're also attacking these suburban areas and demolishing just demolishing in Israel says that it will now be launching or it's expected to be launching a full fledged ground invasion of southern Lebanon. And so that should be expected soon as well so again I mean you have this war involving the entire world right now spreading call it what you want but you have a war of the entire world that's spreading and meanwhile on the United States side I mean you have people like you know Pete Hegs of the defense secretary saying things like the only thing prohibiting transit and horror moves right now is Iran is shooting the ships otherwise it's open. Yeah so it's closed that's the point genius play this clip.

16:49I'll examine your soul one America news. Can you tell us a little bit more about the state of foremost and when it might be fully operational again and how do we ensure our objective of denying Iran and nuclear weapon if they continue to align with our adversaries. So I'll take it and chime in Mr. Chairman if you'd like at all I want to emphasize what the chairman said about that the only thing prohibiting transit in the streets right now is Iran shooting at shipping it is open for transit should Iran not do that now there's a reason why we chose as one of our primary objectives destroy the Navy we understood the ability to interdict shipping is something Iran has done for four years it's key terrain they've used it as leverage the world is seeing what they'll do to fight back in that context and so we've heard them talk about taking various measures and we're planning for all of them so we have a plan for every option here we're working with our interagency partners and that's not a straight we're going to allow to remain contested or with a lack of flow of commercial goods so we're aware of that

17:53we're laser focused on our military objectives but also want to make sure our partners across this government understand we're working with you to make sure that energy flows and that's an important part and the second question was on the nuclear capability as we said from the beginning their strategy shifted just from defense of their nuclear facilities to a conventional umbrella of so many missiles that no one would challenge their ability to their the opportunity to defeat their missile their nuclear capabilities and it was growing by the day so with Iran at its weakest moment taking going at that ballistic missile capability creates an opportunity to ensure at any point in time that Iran give up their nuclear capabilities or if need be you prevent them from doing it as a president has done once already with operation midnight hammer of littering those capabilities so the conventional side is a huge part at getting at denying nuclear capabilities if you have anything you want to add what about the Donald Trump's old defense secretary Mark Esper what did he have to say here's what Mark Esper Donald Trump's former defense secretary said play this clip

18:57who do you think has more endurance frankly I think the Iranians do I think they have survived or they I believe I'm speculating that they probably think they survived the brunt of US and Israeli attacks in these first two weeks and they managed to to affect the transition of power their institutions remain largely intact there is little fracturing that we can see maybe there's more behind the scenes but little fracturing within those institutions and we haven't yet seen the Iranian people come out on the street to protest yet on on our side obviously we see prices going up the pump we see a lot of concern about the economic pressures what will this mean the White House as it looks to a political lens at times with regard to the midterm election so and we see present Trump sending different messages about what you know now with all of this going on as well you have what what's Donald Trump saying Donald Trump saying the war will end when I feel it in my bones here play this clip

19:59I'm doing something about it and I had to take an excursion we had the greatest economy in history we do we still do oh this will bounce right back when it's over and I don't think it's going to be long when it's over this is going to bounce right back so fast when you're going to know when it's over is when I feel it okay I feel it in my bones will you ask anybody in particular that be some of these a joint decision with people I have great people when I feel it in my bones what does that even mean the thunder objective that's not that's not strategy and your bones have gone bankrupt before many a time you have you have bankrupt bones Donald and then here Donald Trump on the tarmac yesterday enjoying base Andrews in Maryland said oh everyone saying Iran's doing good no they're not no they're not they're doing this bad as you can well doesn't seem that way and it does certainly that it seems that you are doing as bad as you can and it seems that they've exceeded any expectations which actually

21:00should have been known with those expectations should actually shouldn't have exceeded expectations because there was a lot of warnings on what was happening but here's what Trump says that oh Ron's doing wonderful no they're not they're doing bad we're doing good okay okay Donald sure you're going to play this clip I won't give you time but we're way ahead of schedule and can you there you have it everybody let me know what you think kids subscribe let's get to seven million subscribers thanks for watching everybody you might as much drop check out the latest pro democracy sticker packs t-shirts hats sweatshirts and more all that store job might as touch dot com
