President Barack Obama. Virginia, we are counting on you. Republicans want to steal enough seats in
Congress to raid the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years. But you can stop
them by voting yes by April 21st. Help put our elections back on a level playing field and let
voters decide not politicians. Vote yes by April 21st. Paid for by Virginians for fair elections.
All right. It is seeming increasingly likely day by day that Donald Trump has legitimate plans
to go boots on the ground in Iran or at the very least take Carlisle and write off the coast.
Multiple Republican lawmakers are beginning to slam the administration over this plan or I guess
their lack of plan and how cloudy things are while we're actively mobilizing thousands of
troops to the Middle East thousands of sailors over a thousand 82nd airborne division members.
Donald Trump is asking for $200 billion to continue this war all the while saying that he's one
and that it's over. We're going to break all of this down. Make sure you drop a like. Make
sure you subscribe to the Adam Ockler feed and if you catch the CNN debate that I did last night
or that I posted this morning, I think it's one of the best yet. Make sure you go check it out.
And before we jump into the Republicans criticizing Trump just to back up from the most fundamental
level. Yes, this war is bothersome because of the human cost because of the monetary cost.
Yes, this war is bothersome because it's illegal and unconstitutional, but just from a very
basic fundamental level, I think we all need to be talking more about the fact that it's bothersome
because the United States people, the citizens in the United States should have their interest
represented by the war and should be able to have a choice in our foreign policy.
It is so incredibly undemocratic to run on one thing than pull the rug from the American people
and enact a war, multiple wars and act regime change and then potentially go boots on the ground
when the American people never had any damn say in the first place. The American people should
at least have a say before we go to war. It is the job of the president of the Secretary of Defense,
of the people around the president to provide an explanation to the American people as to why we're
going to war, why we're going boots on the ground, why we're asking for hundreds of billions of
dollars of our taxpayer money. We have been gotten a good explanation and even top Republicans are
saying this, let me lay out the sequence of events. We learned a few hours ago that fresh out of
a new Iran briefing, the H.A.S.C. Chair, Mike Rogers, a Republican, a deep Republican, and that's
the House Armed Service Committee Chair, Mike Rogers, criticized the Department of Defense for not
giving lawmakers more info, quote, we want to know more about what's going on, what the options are
and why they're being considered, he said, we're just not getting enough answers. These are Republicans
saying this, then Conor O'Brien says a little bit later, Senate Armed Service Chair Roger Wicker,
this is a different guy, asked about what the other Roger said about not getting enough info
I ran and he said, quote, let me put it this way, I can see why he might have said that. So now we
have Republican lawmakers who are basically backing up what I was saying during my debate last night
that this administration is all over the place. One day we've won, one day we're still negotiating,
the next day we have to keep inflicting maximum damage because they're almost about to be defeated,
but all the while we're saying we've destroyed their navy and their military, the straight-of-four
moves still cannot be opened. The United States not only is not able to send ships through,
but can't even escort ships through, like we aren't even attempting to escort allied ships
through the straight-of-four moves because Trump, Pete Hague Seth, Marco Rubio, as much as they lie,
they all understand deep down that that would be a suicide mission. No allied ships are being allowed
through the straight-of-four moves. What does that say about how much we've quote-unquote one?
It's also worth pointing out that when people claim it's a huge win that we took out their
Air Force, their Air Force is like ancient. You can look it up, their Air Force is like 40 to 50
years old. One of our planes could run laps around it, it's not a threat. When they say that we've
taken out their navy, their navy is like incredibly obsolete and old and shitty. It's not a win
that we just took out a country's military and radicalize them more. It is not a win that we took
out the 86-year-old with cancer, Hamine, and replaced him with this 30-year younger son that's
not a win. But to continue here, at least three congressional Republicans, including chairs of
House and Senate Armed Services, are hinting strongly that a ground operation in Iran is planned
and could potentially be underway soon. I want to be very clear on the show. We don't know yet what
the plan is. Donald Trump's quote-unquote plan changes on a whim. I don't even know if he has one,
so it could turn out in one week that this does not happen that it goes a different way.
But according to the intelligence we have right now, and according to the way that congressional
Republicans are speaking, it seems like there is going to be boots on the ground operation. I'll
explain in one moment what that could look like, but this is where the really interesting one comes
out. Around noon today, Representative Nancy May says,
South Carolina's sons and daughters to war in Iran. I won't do it. President Trump has been
enormously successful so far. I don't know about that. But we cannot allow the Washington War
machine to turn Iran into another Iraq. That is exactly what is happening. The same people
who cheered on the invasion of another country that started with the letters IRA, they are now
more than happy to go on Fox News and cheer on the invasion of another country named IRA. This time
Nancy May said, Washington's war machine is hard at work. They are trying to drag us into
Iran and make it another Iraq. We can't let them. It's weird because I've been saying on the show
for the past few weeks that we're experiencing a form of mission creep. Mission creep is when the
size scope and scale of the original mission expands and then before you know what you're still
there for years. But it's actually different now. This is not just mission creep. This is like
mission inversion. Basically, whatever the how the original mission was has been completely side
tracked by our new mission, which is to fix the fuck up of the first mission by opening the
straight of four moves. So just imagine this. We go into whatever the operation was and we mess it
up so bad that we now have a new mission to fix that first f up. It's like not just mission creep.
It's mission inversion at this point. And really quickly, I urge all of you to be using the internet

Here's what Caroline Levitt had to say about this. I may make a whole video about her press
conference a little later tonight. If you want to see that, make sure you subscribe to the Adam
Mochler feed. We're getting very close to two million subscribers. So thank you all genuinely.
Here's Caroline Levitt. President Trump does not bluff and he is prepared to unleash hell.
Iran should not miscalculate again. Their last miscalculation cost them their senior leadership,
their navy, their air force, and their air defense system. Any violence beyond this point will
be because the Iranian regime refused to understand they have already been defeated and refused
to come to a deal. What any violence beyond this point will be because they refuse to understand
they've already been defeated. So they're not fully defeated because there's still a war going on.
What do you mean if there's still violence going on and there hasn't been a defeating of the enemy
yet? What what I think people need to understand is that this is not Venezuela. Donald Trump thought
that if you decapitate the head, the rest of the body will fall in line. That is not what we're
seeing here. Iran is not Venezuela. The reality with Iran is that the IRGC, which is their
military that is very radical and is willing to die till the very last one to protect their country.
They are heavily embedded within the institutions of the country. You can't just kill one person.
You can't just take out an old navy force. You can't just bomb an air force from 50 years ago and
say the regime is gone. You can't just take out the 86 year old leader and say the regime is gone.
The reality is IRGC members when they retire become deeply embedded within the banking system
within the educational systems, within the college systems, within institutions, governments.
The IRGC retirees, people know who they are. They know that these people are radical and they've
done terrible, terrible things. So they're so deeply embedded into the system that you can't really
get it out without a ground war. Now Trump has also floated the idea of securing Carg Island,
which is a small island off the coast of Iran that controls a lot of the oil flow. But in order
to get there, you have to go through the straight-of-form ooze and I don't even know how
boots on the ground operation would be so incredibly disastrous and would cost a lot of lives.
Here's Jesse Ventura talking about this. I think he summarized it very, very well. The former
governor of Minnesota, of course. Well, here's how I feel about it. There's a simple thing as a leader
and you know this having been in the military. Trump wouldn't know it because he's a draft
dodging coward. But anyway, it's this. A war is justified if you're willing to send your kids.
Because how can you send somebody else's kids to a war if you won't send your own? So I'm calling
right now for Baron Trump. Donald Trump's on, you know, after all, he's had three wives. He's
had kids by each wife and nobody's ever served in the military. To my knowledge, a Trump in the last
hundred years has never done military service. Well, Baron, you can change that. In list in the
United States military right now, do something your father didn't have the courage to do. Do
something your father didn't have the patriotism to do. I want to see a Trump in the military.
Everybody in my family is served. So I think I can say that with all due confidence. Come on,
Trump's don't just reap the benefits of this free world. Somebody put on the uniform and that's
you, Baron. And I heard the excuse that Baron might be too tall. David Robinson served on active
duty. He was seven feet tall before he ever went to the San Antonio Spurs basketball team.
Draft Baron. Draft Nick Shirley. Draft Nick Fuentes. Draft Benny Johnson. Draft all of these
people immediately. David Robinson went to the United States Navy military academy. He's one of my
officers not directly, but he would have been. I also want to show you Donald Trump in the
oval office while Pete Hanks was speaking. He looks really bad. I'm not always commenting on his
health because I think his policies speak for themselves, but you can see his face slightly drooping
while his hand is very, very swollen at the bottom. Look at that. Both of his hands are swollen. They
have makeup covering them. I mean, he is really just not looking too solid nowadays to continue here.
He said back in January, we're not afraid of going boots on the ground.
President, does the US, right in the country, mean that US troops will be on the ground? How will that work?
Well, you know, they always say boots on the ground. So we're not afraid of boots on the ground
if we have to have. We had boots on the ground last night at a very high level actually. We're not
afraid of it. We don't mind saying it, but we're going to make sure that that country is run
properly. We're not doing this in vain. This is not, this is a very dangerous attack. This is an
attack that could have gotten very, very badly. Could have gotten very badly. We could have lost a lot
of people last night. We could have lost a lot of dignity. We could have lost a lot of equipment.
The equipment is less important, but we could have lost a lot. And we're going to make sure that
this is proper. So Donald Trump is repeatedly threatening to go boots on the ground. And I think
it's worth just breeding between the lines of what Nancy Mase is saying here. Just walked out of a
House Armed Services briefing on Iran. Let me repeat, I will not support troops on the ground,
even more so after this briefing. They've compared Carg Island being invaded to Iwo Zima,
where 6,800 U.S. troops died. Republicans keep going on Fox News and putting their foot in their
mouth. It's like, it's like these 86-year-old Republicans, like Lindsey Graham, go on Fox News and say,
I want everyone's sons and daughters to go to war except for my family and my immediate surrounding
family. Just so incredibly despicable. I'm going to leave it there. If you appreciate the videos on
