No Forever War Here: Trump Takes The Gloves Off In Iran

All right, welcome to the Carl Jackson show. This is your daily dose of freedom. Guys, I

got a lot to talk about tonight. No, Ms. Out at DHS. We'll talk about that. Tim Wallace

was on the hot seat. I think Democrats made a big mistake in that Texas Senate primary

picking Tallerico over over Crocket. None of us, I don't think anticipated, anticipated

that, but the video that is coming out on this Tallerico guy, I mean, just absolutely

cray, cray. And so maybe the, maybe the Republicans did a good thing and pulled the wool over

the Democrats' eyes. Also, you have the Republican primary facing up to be a nasty one, although

it looks like Trump is going to get involved. And it looks like he may have already asked

Paxton to set aside so that John Corning can win. I will have to see how that goes because

a lot of people are not excited about John Corning. And I've heard from other hosts as

a matter of fact, that John Corning, even though he outperformed Trump. And I believe

it was 2020 or 20, yeah, I believe it was in 2020 in his, in the state of, in the state

of Texas, for whatever reason, because of COVID, there was a lower, a lower turnout and

so on, etc. So people were saying, I don't know, you should pay attention to those numbers.

So anyway, we'll get into some of that. Also, we're going to honor our fallen heroes.

And I'm going to talk about why this, obviously the big news of the week is still what's happening

in Iran. And guys, I got to tell you, a lot of people are, this is just kind of weirding

me out where people are taking this thing. And I get it, you know, I get it. Nobody wants

to be in a never ending war or war that doesn't have any objectives. But right now, you have

some that are just straight up lying to you in the Democrat Party. And you have some,

and listen, I understand nobody wants to go to war. I totally, I totally get that, I totally

understand that. I think what President Trump is doing is absolutely brilliant, because I think

he's weakening China while at the same time protecting America, protecting our allies

in NATO, and also bringing a new era to the Middle East of peace. And this is something

that I think this guy has wanted to do. And frankly, it's something that I do want

him to do. So you can call me whatever names you want. I think this is brilliant. And frankly,

I think when history, when this, when this war is written about in the history books, Trump

is going to go down as one of the greatest foreign policy American presidents ever. And

it's becoming abundantly clear to me. Obviously, there's aftermath that has to occur in Iran.

We'll get to that momentarily. But let me start here, because I do want to make sure something

happened on the view, Elizabeth Hasselbeck. Elizabeth Hasselbeck was the very first person to

interview me nationally years ago. She would never know me. I mean, it was just, I happened

to write a column. She had me on to interview. So I was in, I went to a local Fox station

to interview with the national station. And she is back guest hosting on the view. And

I want to play this cut for you, because I want you guys to understand there isn't a,

there isn't going to be a forever war in Iran. And the people that are saying that, I just

don't think they're thinking it through because of the way, perhaps wars have been handled

in the past, particularly after 9, 11 or some people that may still, you know, be alive

or thinking of Vietnam and the Korean War and how all of these wars got so political,

we're not doing that right now. There is a major reason why Iran won't be a political

war. And I'll explain. But first, cut number 25, please, Gabe.

So I look at Donald Trump and I look at Netanyahu. And I see two leaders who I think, think

politically, they benefit from war. Netanyahu is facing criminal charges for corruption,

like home. Donald Trump is facing very low numbers and Epstein files that will not

are not and we will not let go away.

I do think it's threefold. One, we have 47 million Iranian women who now have a hope

of freedom. That's a good thing. Okay. We have an disgusting, disgusting, terrorist regime

ended. And the people finally have hope to create their own nation again. Okay. So that's

the hope. When we zoom out and do political realm, okay, which is not my specialty either,

but we have a ton of friends in the military who specialize in this. We see that this is

actually avoiding a boots on the ground war with China when we are able to choke their

oil supply and the president and our military are exemplary in doing so right now. They've

cut the oil supply from Venezuela and they've now reduced it and choked the oil supply

to China in Iran. And now what that does is presumably prevent China from having an absolute

stronghold on the globe. So this is a strategic move geopolitically that we may not fully understand,

but I absolutely trust that this is best for our nation. We should be America.

All right. So that was Elizabeth Hasselbeck on the guest hosting on the view. They totally

did not understand what she was saying because these people do not under, if they don't

read about politics, they just yep, yep, yep, yep, like little Chihuahua's. She just gave

a geopolitical breakdown that I think a lot of conservatives, frankly, and or Republicans

may not understand. I think costs are going to come down ultimately because we're not going

to have somebody like Iran bullying people in the streets of where her moose and dictating

what oil can come through and all this kind of nonsense threatening people and all this kind

of stuff. What Trump is doing in the Middle East is absolutely dreaming. And you also had

people like out there. And you know, I like Megan Kelly, but I can't stand what she said

about these heroes. And I want to name these heroes. Excuse me. Major Jeffrey. And fighting

a cold here. So forgive me. Major Jeffrey are O'Brien, 45 of Indiana, Iowa, chief warrant

officer, Robert M. Amarzen, 54 Sacramento, California, Captain Cody Cork, 35 of Winner Haven,

Florida, Sergeant first class Nicole Aimer, 39 of White Bear Lake, Minnesota, Sergeant first class

Noah. And I'm going to butcher this teach jeans T I E T, Gens G E N S 42, Bellevue, Nebraska,

Sergeant Declan Cody C O A D Y only 20 years old of Des Moines, Iowa. Other soldiers were killed by

the Iranian drone strike in Kuwait. These were the soldiers that were killed in the by the Iranian

drone strike in Kuwait. I also want to play another clip for you. I believe this is a clip honoring

the soldiers. Cut 60, 61, 61 gave

you a chance to see a clip of the Iranian drone strike in Kuwait.

Okay, cut number 28. So those were that was obviously one of our warriors, one of our heroes

that died. I want to play cut number 28 for you. This is Elizabeth Hasselback again responding

to comments that Megan Kelly, Megan Kelly had said that that these soldiers did not die

for the United States of America, which is absolutely insane. Cut number 28, please, Gabe.

If I could just say this, number one, Megan Kelly's clip that we ran before saying who those

troops died for, how dare you, Megan Kelly? How dare you, Kyle, a military person who has

sacrificed their lives for our nation in our uniform when they are sacrificing their lives in

our uniform? How dare you tell them or their family's or our nation what they died for?

Oh, you better be sure to come right back. I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid of her.

But I am. I have my heart with my friends in the military. You do not get to authorize who they

died for. So that's let me just do that. So I'm not and I come here. I may vote Republican and

I'm a conservative, but I'm a thinking woman and I have a heart with this war for military.

I'm glad that the leaders there are gone, that they're not flinging women off buildings and

gay people off building. All right. So that's that's Elizabeth Hasselback. And I love that. And

it's okay to have these debates within the conservative movement, but this is an

underbate. And I think she's absolutely right. I don't think you get to tell American heroes

what they died for and who they died for. They didn't die for Israel. They didn't die for Iran.

They did they died for a greater good and they died for the United States of America.

America has eliminated. These people wanted to kill get rid of the big Satan, which is us.

All right. And so we've just eliminated that threat. That's what that's what we've done.

We've made America safer because these people when I gave you the the I mean almost the list was

just insane of all of the US soldiers that have been murdered and mained by the by the Iranian,

the IRCG by the Ayatollah by the by the mullahs of Iran. And so we're fighting we're fighting

for freedom. I mean, it's it's it's as simple as that. And we do have a strategy. We want to make

sure that these people are not a threat to us. We want to make sure that these people the the

Iranian regime are not a threat to our allies. So they died to spread freedom and America was

spreading freedom. And they also died because they were keeping America safe. We have to stop

pretending like the threats against America in at the water's edge. That doesn't mean you get

drawn into these so called forever wars. But let me tell you why this won't be a forever war.

And we'll play the videos after this. Trump has guaranteed this won't be these people are so

disingenuous. Trump has guaranteed this won't be an endless war. You know why? Because the handcuffs

are off. The handcuffs are off. The soldiers can be soldiers. They can go and kill the enemy

without these wack rules of engagement. That ensures this will not be an endless war.

show again. Your daily dose of objective truth and a world of confusion and lies. Okay. I'm

changing that to your daily dose of freedom. As we put videos out there, I believe there's three

types of freedom. I believe that they're spiritual. I believe that there's political. I believe that

there's financial freedom. Those are the freedoms that we're we're fighting for. And I believe

all of those are embodied in the Bill of Rights and in our Constitution. All right. So guys,

let me just share with you. This is why I'm the gloves are often around and and I think that people

I don't know why all of these people that are comparing what's happening in Iran and President

Trump to the previous presidents. It makes no sense. Guys, and I'm not this I'm not an automatic

like just a Trump butt kisser, but I am telling you this guy knows what he's doing when it comes

to foreign policy. This is extremely strategic because again, as I mentioned before, as I mentioned

previous previously in the week, we are we are making things more difficult for China because we're

choking off their oil supply. Obviously they're getting they're getting oil on the cheap or at

least they were from Iran, also from Venezuela. That's not happening anymore. That's going to hurt

them, especially if they want to go try to take out Taiwan. They're going to need fuel. Plus

that obviously their population is absolutely insane. They've got to be able to feed their people.

They got to keep things going to the best of their ability so that people don't turn against that

communist regime. And so Trump is putting a hurting on everybody and they're choking out the

little devil in the desert, if you will, in the Middle East. And that is Iran. We've heard news

now that Saudi Arabia was saying, oh, no, you can't use our airfields. But behind the scenes they

were like, Trump, please, please, please take a run out. So I'm praying that the people of Iran

get their freedom, but also once they get their freedom and they've got to fight for this freedom,

I do, I don't want them to end up becoming a Ukraine, you know what I mean? Where they absolutely

have no weaponry to fight and all this kind of stuff. So hopefully we get the right people in

place. President Trump says he doesn't want regime change. He wants regime placement. He wants

to be a part of the new person coming in. And so that's where we are. Now I told you, it's gloves

off. You guys ever see that movie, Ruse of Engagement? Dave, have you ever seen that movie,

Ruse of Engagement? With, man, that was so good. I think it was Tommy Lee Jones, I believe,

is Samuel L Jackson. And I think Samuel L Jackson was on the roof. And he was fighting in a battle

in Middle East, a firefight. And then he looks down over the ridge because his guys are taking

a bunch of incoming. And then he shocked at what he sees. And it's a little kid that has picked

up arms and just like, and I believe a woman too, if I recall correctly, it's been a long time.

But it was the film is called Ruse of Engagement. So if you ever get an opportunity to see that film,

check it out. It was really, really good in eye opening. You probably can make a movie like that in

Hollywood anymore. But it was certainly good. The bottom line was when he saw that, he was like

unleashed hell on these people that are shooting at my soldiers. And that's exactly what happened.

That's what's happening right now. Guys, for the first time in decades, we are unleashing our

military cut number 33. This is the Secretary of War, Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth,

announces total control of Iranian airspace. I know you've seen this video, but I just want to

line this up for you so you understand that this is not, this is not the war's of old that

is happening. Cut number 33, please. In a few days, in under a week, the two most powerful

air forces in the world will have complete control of Iranian skies, uncontested airspace.

I hope all the folks watching understand what uncontested airspace and complete control means.

It means we will fly all day, all night, day and night, finding, fixing and finishing the

missiles and defense industrial base of the Iranian military, finding and fixing their leaders

and their military leaders. Flying over to Iran, flying over Iran, flying over their capital,

flying over the RGC, Iranian leaders looking up and seeing only US and Israeli air power,

every minute of every day until we decide it's over. And Iran will be able to do nothing about it.

B2s, B52s, B1s, predator drones, fighters controlling the skies, picking targets, death and destruction

from the sky, all day long. We're playing for keeps. Our war fighters have maximum authorities

granted personally by the President and yours. Okay, let's go right to cut number 30,

34 as well, please. This is more of a psychotherapy. We're playing for keeps.

Our war fighters have maximum authorities granted personally by the President and yours

truly. Our rules of engagement are bold, precise and designed to unleash American power,

not shackle it. This was never meant to be a fair fight. And it is not a fair fight.

We are punching them while they're down, which is exactly how it should be.

Thus far, Operation Epic Fury has delivered twice the air... Okay, let's go to cut number 35,

depending on, let me know how long this is. Cut number 35, this is General Dan Raisin Kane.

Flip to the map here. Hopefully I don't kill anybody with a laser pointer.

As I mentioned earlier, and for you with the camera right there, my friend, I hope I don't

ricochet off and hurt you. Over the initial days, the U.S. Joint Forces continued to attack

in a trit ballistic missile capabilities, as well as integrated air defense capabilities along

the southern access. Along the northern access, Israel and the Israeli Air Force has predominantly

been working integrated air defense targets along the northern flank, as well as medium range

ballistic missile capability, as well. From the sea, the USS Ford has continued to project

combat power here, as well as the bomber pulses that we talked about in the opening days of this

briefing. Along the southern access, the USS Abraham Lincoln Strike Group has continued to

provide pressure from the sea along the south, eastern side of the coast, and has been a

tritting naval capability all along the strait and up into the Arabian Gulf at a size and scale,

sufficiently to address the targets required. To date, we've hit over 2,000 targets,

as Admiral Cooper said, in his video last night. We've destroyed more than 20 Iranian naval vessels,

including in addition to the frigate outside of the area, one submarine, and effectively neutralized

at this point in time, Iran's major naval presence in theater out there. As the secretary showed

the video for the first time since 1945, a United States Navy fast-attacked submarine has sunk

an enemy combatant ship using a single Mark 48 torpedo to achieve immediate effects, sending

the warship to the bottom of the sea. I want to remind everybody. All right, let's play cut

number 62, because this is that submarine that sunk this Iranian ship. Here's a video that I

believe President Trump may have put out on his true social cut 62. Man! So 80 people,

80 people died, 32 passed away. You have people talking about, oh, this happened way off the coast.

They were in international waters. They were an enemy in international waters. I heard someone say

this today, and I thought it was a good point. International law is meant to curtail the West,

but they never do these people that are so obsessed with international law. Never do anything about

mullahs of Iran or the people in the Middle East that torture and rape women and rape children,

and so international law is about restraining the West. A bunch of wokies is what it is. Nothing

more than that. And so we are the United States of America, Iran, and their military,

IRCG, the Ayatollah, who is now gone, the mullahs, their enemies, their enemies. I mean, it's as simple

as that. But I just want to make the case that, oh, here's another one. Let's go to cut number 38 real

quick. And this was a couple of days ago, but it's still important. Cut 38. The Iranian navy

rests at the bottom of the Persian Gulf. Combat ineffective, decimated, destroyed, defeated,

pick your adjective. In fact, last night, we sunk their prize ship, the Soleimani,

looks like Potus, got him twice. Okay, so now you guys might be thinking, oh man, that's that's

cocky. Guys, this is what war should be like, especially when it comes to the United States of

America. The problem is we politicize it. These people that have this, the vote in both the house

and the Senate to try to curtail the powers of the president as far as the war resolution act

is concerned. It all came to nothing. Thank God, because all these people want to do is politicize

war for the sake of gaining power for themselves. And then we found out today that even more,

I believe that were 30 Iranian ships, ships have been sunk by the US. All right, one, including a

massive drone carrier that was placed on fire. I don't have time to get to the video of that,

but honestly, we an entire ship with, I mean, from what I understand, it could have been of the

thousands of these drones that are inexpensive and very effective, and they could have heard

our soldiers that can hurt civilians and other, you know, our friends, allies, so on, etc.

And we are just taking them out. Iran doesn't have the capability anymore really to fight back.

So all we're doing is making sure that we kill all of the people that were a danger to the United

States of America and our allies and friends across the sea.

Here's something most people don't know. When Warren Buffett was just 13 years old,

he didn't put his money into a savings account. While other kids were earning next to nothing

at local banks, Buffett put $114 into a little known investment. Today, that $114 would be worth

over $15 million, and it wasn't a risky trade, it wasn't even insider knowledge.

It was an account that's been around since 1888, and over the last 25 years, it's averaged 29%

a year. That's what happens when your money is allowed to compound. Compare that to today's

savings accounts, paying less than half a percent, while inflation quietly eats away at your

buying power. Buffett understood early, banks are great businesses, just not for savers.
