Nothing to see here, folks. Just the decrepit and rotting Donald Trump holding an emergency meeting at the White House with American oil refinery companies that was closed to the press as Donald Trump desperately tries to manipulate the price of oil because gas and diesel are hitting record highs and he is collapsing the economy. That's what's taken place over the past 24 hours. We didn't see Donald Trump yesterday, which is usually a good thing because I hope he can
just rot somewhere else, not in our presence, but he was holding an emergency meeting with American oil refinery companies to try to manipulate the oil price. This as the price of crude is now about to hit $100 a barrel. This as the treasury yields the 10 year, the 20 year, the 30 year, heck, the two year are hitting record highs right now, further putting a massive strain on the U.S. economy and what does Donald Trump do while Trump launches more strikes against Iran and what does Donald Trump target like the sick, disgusting predator that he is. He targets a wedding at a private residential building or complex in Syracount, it was next to a telecommunications tower that was also hit during these strikes, but the wedding party was hit. You had at least five people killed, including at least one child, 68 people were injured.
We were seeing a massive amount of people being brought to the hospital in the area, sickening indeed, and what are Trump regime officials saying? Well you have JD Vance talking about the end times. JD Vance said, I be not shocked if the anti-Christ walked amongst us. And then he also said, I'd also believe that we may be in the end times. That's what JD Vance, the vice president was saying. First, let me show you JD Vance talking about the anti-Christ walking among us. I don't know. Maybe the guy with you in the oval office JD here play this clip. Bad. I think that there are things about the world that make me feel like not shocked if the anti-Christ was walking among us. But again, I try not to focus too much on it. I think that I made more from JD Vance over here talking about the end times as Donald Trump continues these never-ending wars and he's engaged in these heinous war crimes.
Always comforting to have the vice president talk about the end times. Play this clip. What I'm trying to focus on is doing as much of God's work as possible right now. And if that leads to the end times, okay? And then you had Treasury Secretary Besant on Donald Trump's behalf, blaming the horrible economy yet again on Biden and Elizabeth Warren. The Warren Biden economy is what they're going with. No one's buying this crap, okay? Y'all have been in power for like two years. You've ruled like dictators and competent ones. You've destroyed the economy. You made all of these promises. You all made these promises. On day one, things are going to be better. You were going to bring down inflation. You were going to make sure that the US would not get into these never-ending wars. You were going to make housing affordable. You were going to bring back and make manufacturing great. You didn't do any of those things. You've made it far worse than before.
Here's Besant. You can see for yourself just blaming everything on Elizabeth Warren and Biden here. Play this clip. But Warren, so this is the Biden Warren economy. It's Senator Warren placed a lot of the people in the Biden administration. She would say her sock puppets. If you look, study from MIT shows that almost 50 percent of the great inflation came from the out of control spending that went on then. We had a price level problem. We are bringing prices down. Again, if you look, core inflation is very tame and this has to do with the energies. Donald Trump ranting and raiding like a lunatic throughout the day with posts like this. I'm not trying to force Iran to the bargaining table as ABC fake news reported. I couldn't care less if they sign a worthless to them agreement. I like our position now much better with almost total control of the horror moves straight
and their economy totally collapsing. They are just playing out the inevitable. When are the Iranian people going to rise up and fight? DJT, what we're doing that again? Are you going to beam your face and Netanyahu's face into Tehran and think that's going to make the Iranian people rise up like your plan was at the beginning of this catastrophic war when you engage in war crimes then as well against the Lamarid volleyball hall, hall against the Minab Elementary School and other areas in Iran. Sikodonal Trump was also posting more AI videos of himself changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America. He's still doing that. He was making bizarre posts about a woman who was indicted over the World War II memorial of Vandalism. You all know this story. I've reported on it before. Melissa Ferris, 41 years old, clearly suffering from mental health issues. She videotaped herself like urinating on the floor and on the wall and saying incoherent
things and she also vandalized the World War II memorial and Donald Trump's like, look, we found Antifa and it's really someone with mental health issues who needs to be treated but that's the target of the Trump regime because apparently if you go after a two-time Olympic canoeist and David Hurd who fights back and you lose the reflecting pool case, you now need to frame or go after a mentally ill woman who is urinating on a live stream saying incoherent things and that this is who you're going after. This is the federal government is posting about that. I mean so utterly sickening and the person who's responsible for that prosecution, Janine Piro, the federal prosecutor out of Washington, DC posting deranged workout videos of herself. Nobody wants to see any of this. I mean in the past 24 hours alone, you had Kelly Leffler, the Small Business Association. I had, she's a billionaire, married a billionaire and hate small businesses and she's like, I'm
launching a reality show where we're going to highlight, just stop reality shows. I don't want you to launch reality shows. Just do your damn job. This is government. Just behave like people are supposed to behave as public servants, right? You had that. I don't want to play that clip. It annoys me. Then there was Sean Duffy, Transportation Secretary. He's like, we're going to talk about Sydney Sweeney's boobs on his reality show with his wife. He's like, and all of the woke people don't like when I talk about that. But that's what you got to talk about women. It's creepy. It's weird. I don't know why you're talking about that. You're the transportation secretary. It's not a woke thing to be like, hey, can you focus on freaking transportation and stop making reality shows? Then you have Janine Piro doing that. And then you have Treasury Secretary, Bessent. I don't want to see the Treasury Secretary out there in general all that much. When Janet Yellen was the Treasury Secretary, we had other Treasury Secretaries. I didn't see the Treasury Secretary saying we were to range things, especially about
like wars. Why is Bessent even out there? This guy. Bessent went on state regime media last night and he says, the Iranian regime is over and they know it. They know it. You better negotiate with us, Serran, or we're going to keep on grinding you into the ground. Grinding you into the ground. You have to understand that this Trump regime is a group of predators. And if we just hurt you and inflict pain and torture you, then will you do a deal with us? No, quite the contrary. Listen to what Bessent says over here. Play this clip. And they are either going to have to come to the table and be ready to negotiate that they cannot have a nuclear weapon that they have to give up their holiday in risk uranium, and they have to stop with their terrorist proxies that they have to stop terrorizing their neighbors or this will continue. And I believe that between the kinetic action that our great military did for six weeks,
the blockade, and the greatest effort at financial isolation in the history of the world, history of the world, we are going to grind them into the... And Bessent's like in my life, I've killed so many poisonous snakes. You grow up and you slash the throat of the poisonous snakes. And that's what we're doing in Iran. We're slashing their throats. What are you talking about? You're the Treasury Secretary, dude. What the hell is this routine? You live in a pink house. You live in a replica of Barbie's Malibu mansion, except your pink mansion was in Charleston. That's how Carolina. I'm not making this up. You lived in the pink house. Stop with the snakes and that this and that. He also pretends to be a farmer. You know his stick where he goes, and I'm a farmer. So I can relate to the high prices. No, you're a private equity billionaire who, by the way, ran your fund into the ground,
but made your money off of basically taking people's fees undeservedly when you destroyed your fund. And now you're running the United States government after having a very unsuccessful fund of your own. Your MAGA arc is the same MAGA loser arc we see over and over again. But here he is acting all tough. Well, we're going to take off the neck of the snake. Dude, shut the hell up with these people. What's wrong? What is wrong with these actual sickos here? Play this clip. Sean, look in my life, I have killed lots of poisonous snakes. So as I said in that interview with the Great Larry Cudlow, that where I grew up, never swamped, we had a lot of poisonous snakes coming in the yard and we cut their heads off. It was with a machete, with a boat paddle, with a rink. And once ahead is severed, the tail can keep or the remainder of the body can keep squirming, but it eventually stops squirming. But for a while, it doesn't know what's dead. The head still poisonous, you're buried ahead and that's what we are doing to this regime.
We are going to isolate them economically and they will have no choice. And meanwhile, in Venezuela, you actually have the opposition party as well as the Delcy Rodriguez ruling party supporters, not Delcy, but the supporters are all coming out against this Donald Trump imperialistic exploitation of Venezuela along with Alejandro Benton Court, one of these bully chico's as they are called, these rich Chavistas who made all of their money, you know, basically exploiting the people of Venezuela. And you know, look, I've gone over this deal so many times that it's a fraudulent deal. There's not really 65 million barrels that the U.S. is going to have access to that. The Venezuelan oil doesn't go to our strategic reserves. It's the material and the consistency. It's sour, it's dense, it's viscous, it's not going to work. We're going to have to have hundreds of billions of day, like tens of billions of dollars in infrastructure and investment and U.S. oil companies don't want to really get involved
in that. They haven't gotten involved in that. That's why the Trump regime created a Trump state-owned Pentagon-controlled oil company. That's called communism and it's illegal because our Congress needs to approve it with Hegsiff. That's taking a stake with this Alejandro Benton Court in the Venezuela reserves. Again, patently illegal and the people of Venezuela are just absolutely livid. Germania Rodriguez-Poleo says, LOL, the White House really thought that we, Venezuelans, were going to stay silent about this. Sorry not sorry for rooting your plans to quietly align with this thug. America, meat, Alejandro Benton Court right there. And this is what Ricardo Houseman, former Venezuelan planning minister had to say on CNN, play this clip. This smells horribly. This is really a clptocracy in Caracas dealing with a clptocracy in the U.S. This is not in the interest of the Venezuelan people.
It's an illegitimate deal that is done by an interim president that pretends to allocate 65 billion arrows of reserves. He should be there just to organize an election and have a permanent president and a prime nationalist make these decisions. She should be ahead. What are they talking about on state regime media Fox with all of this taking place? In addition to having the transportation secretary talk about Sydney, Sweden's breasts, what else are they talking about? Well, glad you ask. The Fox hosts are complaining about low teen pregnancy rates. They're like, why aren't these girls between 15 and 19 having babies anymore? The hell are the, what the hell are you? As I said, all these people are like freaking predators here. Play this clip. Absolutely. We still have 3.6 million births a year, but the problem is teens and young adults.
From ages 15 to 19, the fertility rate is down 7 percent and it's down 70 percent over the last 2 decades, meaning we're telling people that are young not to have babies to wait till they're in a more stable life situation, till they're more financially secure. Maybe they haven't found the right partner to you. And then you have right wing provocateur former ultra mega Milo Yanopoulos, who was basically reported to ice by Laura Lumer after an internal mega spat. He got deported to the UK. And here's what he had to say now that he renounces his mega ship. I'm no longer mega. I don't support Trump anymore because now he came after me. Here's what happened here. Play this clip. Collapse into this ugly, warm mongering, taken as a whole mentally ill heap of crazy, with some of the most unstable and lunatic people, seemingly directing the president's
actions. If I had any clue that anything remotely like this was even possible, I would never have got involved in supporting Trump in the first place. And I'm very ashamed that I did. Should also be noted, and I've done a lot of videos on this as well, after the US struck Iran, Iran responded, Iran struck US bases in Jordan, Bawafak Salty, Prince Hussein, and numerous bases there in Bahrain. They struck as well. Let's just pull up this list right here. In Iraq, maintenance center, equipment warehouses, surveillance system, and fuel tanks, in Jordan, marine facilities, attack helicopters, and drone hangers, the Captain Titan, the Captain Titan, Princesson, and also I believe Mawafak Salty, the US hit the Iran hit US bases in Bahrain, radar systems, fuel infrastructure, US troop positions there in Kuwait, Iran struck
a military pier, weapons hangers, aircraft facilities, and an MQ-9 infrastructure drone there. We believe multiple drones were hit as well. And the Trump regime is continuing just to leak out lies to Barack Grovedo, right Axios, claiming things are going great. They're going according to plan. We got out all of the oil that we wanted from the Strained of War moves. Things are going exactly the way they wanted, and we know it's just more lies from the Trump regime right here in any event. This is what Barack Groved's posting. A US official told me on Tuesday that the new strikes against Iran degraded attack capabilities in the strait and brought and bought us at least a month or lowered the threat levels of commercial ships. A US official set around 40 ships, transited in and out of the Strained of Pramuz on Tuesday, carrying millions of barrels. Millions of barrels. Stop with the lies. There's about three to four million barrels of oil getting out of the Strained of War moves.
Okay, before the war was 20 million barrels. Okay, you want to talk millions, about three or four million barrels. If all this supply is getting out there, then why is the price of crude now hitting $100 a barrel? Why? If there's all this supply, perhaps it's because you're lying about everything. And now all of the fabrications, all of the fraud, it's all catching up. Everything we've been warning about, about tank bottom in the salt caverns and the strategic petroleum reserves, all of the lies that Trump's been saying with the fake deals, the this, the that, it's all caught up. Nobody's believing the deal in Venezuela is going to actually replenish the strategic reserves. We know it's a Trump fraud. We know it's all a lie. And it's, and times run out. Times run out. And so now you're doing emergency meetings with going back to where I started with the refiner's, bringing them into the White House, throwing out the press while you talk about manipulating the market, like the authoritarian communists that you all are in the Trump
regime. That's who they are. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million subscribers. Thanks for watching everybody. Breaking news right now. My brothers and I wrote a book. It's called WTF America.
