Trump PANICS as Generals HIDE NUCLEAR CODES?!!

Donald Trump was blocked from accessing. the nuclear codes by the chairman of the. Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Dan. Caine, this past weekend as Donald Trump. was ranting and raving like a lunatic. and panicking in the situation room. And. the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Dan. Caine, apparently told Donald Trump, "Get the hell out of here. We're not. giving you the code. Stop talking about. nuclear weapons." Now, this is according. to the Mirror. The source that they cite. is a former CIA analyst. And I'm going.

to show you in a moment what this former. CIA analyst says that his sources told. him about this moment in the White House. where the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Dan Caine, told Donald Trump, "Stop talking about nuclear weapons. You. can't access the nuclear codes." And. now, while this may seem like a. salacious story, and perhaps it is, when. you see what Donald Trump has been doing. with nuclear testing and with nuclear.

weapons over the past few months, it's. actually not that far-fetched. And so, before sharing with you what this CIA. analyst is saying that his sources tell. them, cuz you may go, "Come on, Ben. Does this CIA analyst really have these. sources?" Before showing you that, let. me just show you Donald Trump's own. words over the past 6 to 9 months, and. let me share with you the words of. Donald Trump's Under Secretary of State. for arms control.

also talk about how they are. interpreting Donald Trump's command that. nuclear weapons testing occur in the. United States immediately. And I know. with all of the distractions that Donald. Trump throws everybody's way, this is. one of those stories that, you know, just happened on a random Wednesday, if. you will. But Donald Trump claimed that. China and Russia were involved in. nuclear testing. What they were involved.

in was testing regarding weapons capable. of delivering nuclear arms and nuclear. material, but there wasn't actually a. nuclear test where the underlying. nuclear material itself was used cuz. that would probably register with our. intelligence community. And so, Donald Trump again, just not just. shooting from the hip, but hearing. things and then. interpreting it in a way that's so. dangerously wrong. So, before sharing. with you this incident that allegedly.

occurred this weekend, first let me. share with you what this guy, Thomas. DiNanno, who's Donald Trump under sec-. Donald Trump's under secretary of state. for arms control, he said that the. United States has not yet decided how to. implement Donald Trump's order to resume. US nuclear weapons test. We're still. assessing it. We've made no decision. specifically on how or what any testing. program would look like. Now, you would.

think that this would be a front-page. story, right? You would think everybody. would know about it. Uh-uh. But, let me. show you the clip. Let's play it. >> Thank you, Senator. Look, I. couple points to make. Number one, we're still assessing. We've made no decision specifically on. how or what that any testing program. would look like. So, that's. pre-decisional. Um, if the administration comes to that. decision, I'm sure we'd happy to come. back and talk to you. >> And what that is in response to is what.

took place in October of 2025 when. Donald Trump was aboard Air Force One. And Trump's like, "Yeah, we're going to. do testing." Here's what Donald Trump. said. Let's play it. >> Are you talking about literally resuming. underground nuclear detonation tests? >> You'll find out very soon, but we're. going to do some testing, yeah. Other. countries do it. If they're going to do. it, we're going to do it. >> Okay, but can't clarify what you mean by. resume. >> I'm not going to say yet. I mean, I know. exactly what we're doing, where we're. doing it, but other countries are doing. it. If other countries do it, we do it.

>> And throughout the end of last October, he kept on saying this over and over. again. Nuclear testing, he said, "Xi. Jinping, Putin, they're telling me. they're doing nuclear testing, so I got. to do nuclear testing." Here, play this. clip. >> About resuming nuclear testing, what. prompted you to do that right before the. meeting? >> Yeah, but it had to do with others. receiving nuclear testing. We have more nuclear weapons than. anybody. We don't do testing. You know, we've. halted it years many years ago, but with others doing testing, I think.

it's appropriate that we do also. >> Any details around the testing, sir, like where, when? >> We won't be It'll be announced. You. know, we have test sites. It'll be. announced. >> And here is how a military intelligence. officer, Scott Ritter, former military. intelligence officer, described the. situation of what went down there. Let's. play this clip. >> My take is that the United States of. America is governed by one of the. dumbest men in the world. who doesn't understand the the power of.

words. Um, and before he speaks on topics such. as this, he should probably get better. briefed. This is a man who was told that the. Russians had carried out two nuclear. tests. One of the Burevestnik nuclear-powered. cruise missile, and the other of the. Poseidon nuclear-powered underwater. drone. Um, both of these are, you know, nuclear capable, meaning they. can carry nuclear warheads. Uh, but the. tests were of the nuclear propulsion.

systems. Um, and so, you know, he somehow in his. brain. uh. decided that he was going to call these. nuclear weapons tests. No, they're. tests of nuclear delivery vehicles. [clears throat]. uh that are happen to be nuclear. powered. Maybe that's just too many. nukes for Trump's brain to handle. >> [clears throat]. >> But the the bottom line is. you know, he spoke out and said they're. doing tests, so I'm going to order.

tests. Now, here's the important part. He said, "I'm going to order the. Secretary of War." That would be Pete. Buttigieg to carry out a nuclear weapons. test similar to what was done. And. everybody freaked out and thought, "Oh. my god, that means the United States is. going to go and violate the. comprehensive test ban. you know, actual nuclear warheads. And yet today the Secretary of War. carried out his instructions. They. tested a Minuteman 3 missile without a. warhead. They tested the delivery system.

very similar to what the tests that were. done by you know, but we do this all the. time. This isn't the first Minuteman 3. test this year. We've tested a whole range of. Trident D5 delivery systems. And. it should not raise anybody's eyebrows. It shouldn't get anybody's pulse up. But. the. you know, then he turns around and he. says things like we know the Russians. are testing in secret. We know the. Chinese are testing in secret. Well, the. the secrecy are the tests of their. missiles. Of course, they're secret. I.

mean, Russia's not going to broadcast. that hey, today we're going to flight. test the Burevestnik. Although. apparently a NATO ship was monitoring. the test and the Russians didn't do. anything to disguise it. Um. but. you words matter. And so now you're the. Russians and you have to be pragmatic. You have to say, you know, is this guy. just stupid? The answer of course is an. unqualified yes. Um. but. you you can't run your policy based upon. we're just interpreting his words as. stupidity.

This this his words could also be. interpreted to be that the United States. believes that Russia and China are. carrying out secret nuclear weapons. tests and therefore the United States. must be prepared to carry out tests of. its own. But if that's the case, then it. isn't the Secretary of War that's going. to handle that. It'll be a completely. different American agency responsible. for the upkeep of nuclear weapons. And. the Department of Energy. Um and there's. no evidence that we are um. getting ready to do a a nuclear test.

And there's no evidence that the. Russians or the Chinese have been doing. or getting ready. All countries do what are known as. subcritical testing. That is, we test. the. nuclear device model um in a manner that. tests everything except the actual. fission event. We we don't get that. fission event. Um. and then we we, you know, extrapolate. based upon data whether or not the. weapon would work, etc. Everybody does. that. >> Right. Now that I shared that with you,

let me go back to this article in the. Mirror. Trump blocked from accessing. nuclear codes by head of the US. military. Donald Trump is alleged to. have received pushback from a senior. military person in a meeting at the. White House during an attempt to access. the nuclear codes. Here's what the. Mirror says. Donald Trump was blocked. access to the nuclear codes by General. Dan Caine, chairman of the Joint Chiefs. This according to retired CIA analyst. Larry Johnson. He said on the YouTube.

channel Judging Freedom. Um and I think the guy who hosted the. Judging Freedom, that judge used to. appear on Fox all of the time. Um and uh. and Andrew Napolitano. And I always. viewed him as like one of these Fox. people, but I guess that's changed. recently. Um and here he is with this former CIA. analyst Larry Johnson. And here's how. Larry Johnson describes what happens. here. Play this clip. >> And then there was a report out um.

that that they had an emergency meeting. Saturday night. And apparently, well, one report coming. out of that meeting, that's White House, is that Trump wanted to. use the nuclear so-called use the. nuclear codes and the General Dan Cain. stood up and said, "No.". Uh he invoked uh. his his privilege as as the. the head of the military, so to speak. Uh it was apparently quite a blow-up. There are pictures of Cain coming out of.

that meeting with his head down to the. ground. Um so, you know, this. there's some very very bizarre things. going on in DC. >> Well, on Saturday night, excuse. [clears throat] me, Larry, Trump um. said, this is hard to say with a. straight face, but this is what he said, Trump said that the US and Iran would. jointly. excavate. the enriched uranium. >> Yeah. >> And remove it.

Has [clears throat] he lost his mind? >> Uh short answer, yes. Yeah, you know, this. Donald Trump is there is something. seriously wrong with him. In terms of what his his tweeting on. social media or, you know, on Truth. Social uh in particular uh and then the. this the crazy public statements. You. know, go back and look at what he said. on Friday. In the period of. you know, about 30 minutes, he claimed.

that, "Oh, Iran's agreed. There's going. to be peace. A deal is near." It it was. all it was all manipulating the the the. stock market and the commodities. markets. But none of it was true. And Iran, you know, Iran's sitting there. watching what he's saying and is saying, you know, you begin to come to the position that. that you can't trust anything. that is coming out of Donald Trump's. mouth. >> Wow.

Is. uh did a US did the Navy fire. at this Iranian vessel either to terrify. the crew or or disable it? >> No no, they fired at it. There is a. video showing the the ship firing. We. don't see the impact. The. reports on social media on Telegram and. stipulate that it hit the engine room. Uh disabled the vessel. Now again, it's. important to emphasize this this is an.

Iranian flag vessel. It was coming from. China headed to uh Iran. Uh and it's a container ship, you know, those 40-ft containers that show up on. the back of. uh of trucks that are roaring along the. highways in the United States. That's. what that's what they were carrying. >> I'm Michael Popok, and I got some big. news for our audience. Most of you know. me as the co-founder of Midas Touch as.

Vance when Trump and Vance are out. there, you know, just changing the. negotiating position every single day, and Donald Trump's making these threats, and Donald Trump's blocking the Persian. Gulf blockade, and Donald Trump. continues to threaten the end the.

Iranian civilization, and Donald Trump. agrees to the 10-point framework that. Iran puts forward, where Iran controls. the Strait of Hormuz, has long-term. security guarantees for itself, Hezbollah, and its other [snorts]. proxies, that it could charge a toll in. the Strait of Hormuz, that all sanctions. get removed, that it keeps uranium.". Like, how do you negotiate with Trump. when he says, "I agree to that" and then. posts that he agrees to that and then. just changes his mind and then posts, "No, we're going to obliterate you and. destroy you." Here, play this clip. >> Well, they won't until the United States.

lifts the so-called blockade. and and abides by the 10 points that. Iran presented them with the 2 weeks. ago. So, they're very serious about this and, you know, this is reminiscent of the. negotiations with Russia or the. attempted negotiations with Russia. The. Russians made very clear what their what. their non-negotiable items were and the. United States United States kept.

pretending that oh, they don't mean. that. We'll just that's just they're. just playing a it's a negotiation ploy. So that that's their initial demand and. we'll go back and forth. No, that's you. know, Iran's in the same position. So they're. going to retaliate for this attack on. this ship that was coming from China to. Iran and you know, the escalation will be on. I I look, the. United States is planning to attack. Iran. That's clear. There is no genuine.

desire to have a peace agreement. >> You know what I wanted to share with you. too and again this isn't have getting. enough attention how Donald Trump's. words are having consequences across the. globe. I mean here you have Russians. Ambassador to the United Nations Vassily. Nebenzya. This was back in November of. 2025. He describes Donald Trump's words. about nuclear testing as very serious. In response to our testing of new cruise. missiles and nuclear capable underwater.

weapons, Trump stated that the United. States is considered resuming nuclear. testing. This is a serious statement. The consequences are still unknown and. we must be prepared for such a. development. In other words, now Donald. Trump is threatening you know, to do. this nuclear testing and by the way, the. hearing of the under secretary, that. hearing was a few weeks back. I mean. that was in March during Donald Trump's. catastrophic and unlawful war. But. here's there'll be subtitles so you can.

hear what this Russian Ambassador to the. UN says here. Play this clip. >> President Trump. nuclear rockets. underwater. nuclear weapons. stated that the United States. United States.

>> And here is what this guy Peskov, who's. basically Putin's Caroline Levitt, here's what he has to say about when. Donald Trump was talking about nuclear. testing. When Trump was saying it in October, he goes, "I'd like to recall Putin's. statement, which has been repeated many. times. If anyone deviates from the. moratorium, Russia will act. accordingly." In other words, Russia's. saying, "We hear Donald Trump doing. nuclear tests, so we're going to do. nuclear tests." Here, play this clip.

And then you have all of Donald Trump's. sick offense repeating that nuclear. testing would be great. You had Maga. Mike Johnson saying it. Play this clip. >> I also want to quickly talk about. something that the president said, pretty remarkable actually, that he said. He said that he instructed the Pentagon.

to begin testing nuclear weapons again. for the first time in more than 30. years. It hasn't happened since 1992. Have you been briefed about this? Are. you okay with this move? >> I haven't spoken to the president in. about 48 hours, so I did not know he was. going to say that, but I think it is an. important thing for him to have said. Why? Because we have demonstrated, even. in recent days, that the only way to. maintain peace is to show strength. It's. It's peace through strength. That's one. of our principles that we try to advance.

here every day. We learned that during. the Cold War. We know it's certainly. true now. America is the last great. superpower in the world. We do not have. a peer-to-peer adversary. China is. trying to become that, but in in this. this dynamic that we have now on the. world stage, America has to show. strength, and I think it is an obvious. and logical thing to ensure that our. weapon systems work as they're designed. I have a big Air Force Base in my. district, Barksdale Air Force Base. It's. the home of the Global Strike Command, 2/3 of the nuclear triad commanded.

there. And and our airmen and and all of. those involved in our nuclear arsenal. need to be well practiced, and they. certainly are. They're ready and. prepared, but we need to make sure that. we know that we know that we can. maintain our strength, and I I I think. that's an obvious and logical thing to. do. >> You had J.D. Vance saying it as well. Play this clip. >> Mr. Vice President, could you let us know your understanding. of the president's comments that he. wants to resume. nuclear testing after more than 30. years? Does he mean the warheads.

themselves, the distribution, the. missile silos, and so forth? What's your. understanding of this situation? >> Well, look, I'll answer that very. briefly, but I really do want to focus. on the shutdown that is affecting the. American people. I think the president's. truth speaks for itself. We have a big. arsenal. Obviously, the Russians have a. large nuclear arsenal. The Chinese have. a large nuclear arsenal. Sometimes. you've got to test it to make sure that. it's functioning and working properly. We've been working very closely, even. with nations that we don't have the best. relations with, to try to limit nuclear. proliferation. The president's going to.

keep on working on that, but it's an. important part of American national. security to make sure that this nuclear. arsenal we have actually functions. properly, and that's part of the testing. regime. To be clear, we know that it. does work properly, but you got to keep. on top of it over time and the president. just wants to make sure that we do that. >> And I think it's important to also note, and this doesn't get nearly enough. attention. Right now you have North. Korea doing lots of cruise and ballistic. missile testing and saying we're a. nuclear power, we're a nuclear power. And as expert Professor Robert Kelly.

explains, this Professor Robert Kelly, the reason that North Korea became a. nuclear power was because Donald Trump. ripped up Obama's nuclear deal with Iran. in 2018 and then Donald Trump allowed. North Korea to become a nuclear power. Remember when Donald Trump was talking. all tough? He was talking all tough with. North Korea and he gave Kim Jong-un he. allowed Kim Jong-un to build nuclear. weapons and now it's like. whatever, what can we do? Remember when. Obama would get criticized every time. Kim Jong-un would do like missile tests. it would be like, "Oh my god, we're on.

missile test watch of Kim Jong-un." Kim. Jong-un like tests cruise and ballistic. missiles right now like every day and. brags about having nuclear weapons. Here's what Professor Kelly had to say. Play this clip. >> Yeah, yeah, I think that's correct. I. think the analysis there I think is. accurate and and I think many people who. work on North Korea nuclear weapons. would say that the Iran scenario is. exactly why other rogue states like. North Korea. build these weapons and we can imagine. that others will do so in the future. The fact that Donald Trump walked away. from the Iran deal that was brokered by.

the Obama administration sends a pretty. powerful signal to the North Koreans. that if you negotiate with the. Americans, strike a deal, then the. American administration changes, you. have sort of a partisan transition that. future governments won't feel bound by. that deal and so the only way to have. sort of final security, ultimate. security is to uh. is to nuke up and the North Koreans. can't deliver those weapons really any. other way than missiles, hence all the. missile tests that you saw today and. we've seen for years. >> And here's what former National Security. Advisor John Bolton had to say about.

Iran negotiators now smelling panic on. Donald Trump. Let's play it. >> Panic in the White House. I think they. can see Trump wants out of this. He's just he he's broadcasting it almost. every day. and it gives the Iranians enormous. leverage they shouldn't have. >> And by the way, don't you remember end. of last week Donald Trump saying that he. was going to work with Iranian. excavators to extract nuclear dust from. Iran's nuclear sites and they're like, you know, this guy's crazy. Like, what. are you talking that we're not doing. that? Here, play this clip. >> Somebody said, "How are we going to get.

the nuclear dust?" We're going to get it. by going in with Iran. with lots of excavators because the. beaters remember when fake news CNN. said, "Well, maybe obliteration is too. strong a word. Obliteration, that's so. deep.". >> And then here was Donald Trump boasting. from last June to the present about how. Iran's nuclear capabilities have totally. been obliterated. And now apparently. they haven't been obliterated at all. Here, play this clip.

>> Tonight I can report to the world that. the strikes were a spectacular. military success. Iran's key nuclear enrichment facilities. have been completely and totally. obliterated. We assess that the American strikes on. Iran's nuclear facilities has set back. Iran's ability to develop nuclear. weapons for many years to come. The. [snorts] nuclear threat of Iran that was. totally obliterated. Iran where we wiped. out their nuclear capacity for weapons,

sir. They totally obliterated the. nuclear potential nuclear supply of. Iran. In June we obliterated Iran's. nuclear enrichment capacity. Last summer. I ordered devastating strikes on Iran's. key nuclear facilities and achieving. total obliteration of the Iran nuclear. potential capability, totally. obliterated. >> There you have it.
