Trump PANICS as he GETS GHOSTED in QATAR!!!!
Donald Trump is panicking as he and his. envoys have been ghosted in Qatar. Iran. meant what they said. They said they are. not showing up to Qatar for further. discussions about the memorandum of. understanding after the United States. began striking Iran on Friday and over. the weekend in violation of the MOU. And. Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson. said, "How many times did I need to. repeat we are not going there. We have.
nothing to discuss right now as long as. the United States violates the MOU.". Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson. moments ago said, "We had not planned. any meetings with the American side at. any level over the next few days. So, there isn't even anything for us to. cancel. We don't want to go there. We. don't want to be around them." What is. likely to take place in Doha tomorrow.
maybe the US wants to have discussions. with the Qatari side, but all we've said. in Iran is. "Keep releasing the frozen sanctioned. money to us. Keep complying and maybe. we'll meet with you in the future." Now, if you take a look at what's happening. in the Strait of Hormuz and the actual. data, there are no ships that are going. through that lane that the United States.
tried to open, which they've referred to. as the Omani lane. All of the ships that. are leaving the Strait of Hormuz are. going through the IRGC route, the Iran. route, and there are far less ships. coming in than ships leaving. So, while. Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary. Besson and the Trump regime are clearly. manipulating the market, I'm trying to. just show what's actually happening. And.
there's a reason why the crack spreads. are so big right now, meaning the price. of Brent crude, you know, when you see. the price of oils going down, that's the. price of Brent crude. It's a kind of. futures market, if you will, on the. price of crude, like the actual crude. from the source. That's different from. the refinery prices, the gas that you. are getting. And it's why gas prices are.
still high, because the refiners believe. that there's probably a bunch of. shenanigans that are going on with the. crude pricing to try to bring that down. And now Trump wants the refiners to. bring their price down, but and while. there probably is some price gouging. going on, although certainly much more. under the Biden administration than. right now, the reality is what the. reality is in the Strait of Hormuz, despite the markets being manipulated. So, you have Doug Burgum, Donald Trump's.
Interior Secretary. He's now, I guess, one of the main people speaking about. this catastrophic and unlawful war and. the MOU. Even state regime media Fox is. like, "Yeah, but they're not meeting. with you. Like, what's going on here?". And watch what Doug Burgum says here. Play this clip. >> He's got all the cards, and the Iranians. can try to play it out, but I don't. think that's going to work out for them. >> But it is working out for them. They are. playing for time. It is taking a great. deal of time.
People ask all the time, "Why is it. dragging on?" They're playing for time. successfully. >> Well, I think again, when we take a look. at the length of conflicts in history, this has been so short compared to. others. And and President Trump, as he's. demonstrated just even a few weeks ago, if they're not willing to negotiate, he. can go back to you know, a different. approach. Because again, the key here, having a terror group having a nuclear. weapon, it's not really have like a. country. It's a terrorist group because. terrorist group would use that and it.
and if it's be the first time in the. world history where a terrorist group. willing to use a nuclear weapon would. have one. President Trump has basically. averted World War III. >> But I guess the Trump regime plan is to. send out a bunch of Truth Social posts. They're going to. Their their policy, it's not a policy at. all and being sarcastic is Donald Trump. sends social media posts and then. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent while. trying to promote this disastrous Great. American Fair that Fox keeps on doing. says, "Did you see Donald Trump's very.
powerful Truth post?" Donald Trump told. the gas companies, "Lower your prices. now.". Okay, weren't these the people who. Donald Trump was consulting with about. conquering Venezuela? You. you have to do a truth These are your. buds. These are the people y'all collude. with. Watch what Bessent says. Play this. clip. >> We've got a chart of how quickly the. prices went up and how they followed. crude and we're going to hold them.
accountable on the other side. President. Trump talked about it the the past week. He had a very powerful Truth Social. yesterday. So, I would encourage all the. gasoline retailers. Some of them are. owned by big oil. Some are independent. Some are international convenience. chains. I would encourage them to be. good actors especially in the 250th. anniversary cuz we're watching. >> Oh, and I I I guess I guess they and the. other oligarch friends aren't giving uh. money for the ballroom anymore. Remember. when they promised, "It's going to be my.
rich friends and I'm going to buy the. ballroom." Yep, Trump is using a $500. million no-bid contract to build the. White House ballroom. The secret. agreement was routed through a White. House office that typically handles. repairs and furnishings and is exempt. from a competitive bidding requirement. The Washington Post is currently. reporting right now. Now, while the Trump regime is getting. ghosted in Qatar, Donald Trump received some bad rulings,
uh good rulings for the constitutional. standpoint, rulings that went against. some of Donald Trump's fascist. positions, and some rulings in favor of. Donald Trump. Um but uh the big ruling. saying that the birthright citizenship. provision in the 14th Amendment in the. Constitution provides for birthright. citizenship was a 6-3 decision by the. Supreme Court. Although it seemed that. four of the right-wing justices believe. that the Constitution doesn't provide. for birthright citizenship, although it.
was a 6-3 decision uh in favor of. birthright citizenship, Kavanaugh sided. with the majority because he just said, "I don't believe the Constitution. provides for birthright citizenship, but. Congress passed the law in the 1950s. that uh Donald Trump wasn't allowed to. override by an executive order." So, actually a pretty troubling outcome that. four Supreme Court justices don't abide. by the clear text of the Constitution of. what the Constitution is. But here was.
MAGA Mike Johnson learning about it in. real time this morning. Play this clip. >> jurisdiction of the United States and. our citizens at birth under the 14th. Amendment's citizenship clause. What's your reaction to that? >> Well, uh. >> This is real time. >> I need to read the opinion, okay? But uh. obviously that's I mean, you could say. that's a textualist originalist view. Uh however, I I do think that um this has been. grossly abused in recent years, okay?
>> And then MAGA Mike Johnson was asked. while Donald Trump is flailing in the. White House today and refusing to sign. the housing bill and saying that it's a. big yawn and he doesn't care about the. housing bill. Magamike Johnson says, "Look, housing. affordability is just a very complicated. issue for Donald Trump, very very. complicated. And I I'm sure he doesn't. get into all the weeds, but he also. knows everything." Here, play this clip. >> is the president has a lot going on and. I I think it's safe to say he's not read. through every line of that piece of.
legislation. It's a lot to it and and a. lot of great things and he and I have. spoken about it quite a bit. He. understands all the dynamics here. What. he was saying. and legislation. But what he was saying. is in comparison to ensuring election. integrity, which is which is now. represented by the Save America Act, um. nothing is as important because you. cannot maintain a constitutional. republic unless you have free and fair. elections. The government of, by, and. for the people is ultimately and. foundationally dependent upon that. That's what the president is saying. We.
all agree with that. And by the way, so. do the American people. Now, that's not. to say that there are not also. incredibly important issues and the cost. of living and affordability is among. them. It's top of mind. I I've spent 6. hours in the Oval Office. in the just in the last few days. I. think 4 hours on Thursday, over 2 hours. yesterday. We talked about all this in. great length. The president certainly. understands the importance of affordable. housing. As he's noted yesterday, he. knows as much about housing as anybody. because that in many respects was part. of his portfolio and career.
>> Now, the humiliation ritual for the. Trump regime continues and frankly, the. humiliation ritual for all of us. outside of the White House in the. Washington D.C. Mall, you still have. that Great American Fair, State Fair. that Donald Trump absolutely destroyed. Today's main attraction, you have. Michael Knowles, this kind of right-wing. MAGA propagandist, debating a. 10-year-old girl. in a MAGA hat about Salem witch trials. in front of maybe 12 people. And the.
argument from Knowles, and again, he's. like an ultra-MAGA guy, the one area. where the Salem witch trials went a. little too far is I would say they. weren't organized enough. They had. random judges burning these ladies. I. don't know if they were guilty or not. That's what's going on in the Washington. Mall right now, justifying the Salem. witch trials but saying the issue was. the some of some random judges, but we. don't know. It's possible they really. were witches those women, those girls. Here, play this clip.
>> But the one area where the Salem witch. trials went a little far is I would say. they weren't organized enough. So, you. have these like random judges, you know, kind of burning these ladies. I'm not I. don't know if they were guilty or not. But I think more if it were more. formalized, built up a little bit more, maybe with like any a grand inquisitor. or something, that would have been a. better way to do it. I am so impressed. I could. >> By the way, he's doing this debate with. a little 10-year-old girl right here.
What in the and saying that girls should. be burned in the Salem witch trials? Just take a look at the crowd. Madeline. Pelts got a good view of the crowd right. here. Let's play it. >> Why? >> Because. well, I think it was Babe Ruth or Jackie. Robinson that said. baseball. >> And then, as Donald Trump and his regime. are getting ghosted in Qatar, they send. their propagandists out there to attack. Canada. Yeah, blame Canada, right right.
out of the South Park playbook. Blame. Canada. And now you have this MAGA. Republican Congressman Michael Guest. saying, you know, a real big national. security threat right now is that the. Canadians are letting in North Korean. spies and Iranians into the United. States. And so, Canada poses a massive. security risk. Here, listen to what he. says. Let's play this clip. >> See, as we see a larger percentage of. individuals who are watch listed or. apprehended coming into the country. through the northern border.
And so, we see that many of the. individuals apprehended at the northern. border are not from our hemisphere. Many. of them are adversarial nations, China, North Korea, Iran, countries that do not. share the same values that we do in. America. And so, that is why it is. important that we remain focused again. on what is happening also on the. northern border because it presents a. different set of challenges to our. border patrol. Again, a much larger area. to patrol. have the barriers.
And we have been having it at times to. pull staff from the northern border to. do interior enforcement. So, it's. important that we return staff to the. border so that we can adequately secure. our northern border. >> Treasury Secretary Besson says ignore. what's happening in Qatar. Things are. Things are going great. And actually, during the war, business was booming here. The American. people are doing great. That's what. Besson says. Let's play it. >> During the Iran conflict, the US economy.
powered through it. The economy's been. very strong. We've been creating about. $170,000. I mean, 170,000 jobs a month during the. conflict. And I wouldn't be surprised I. haven't seen the number if this month's. job number is very strong. And more. importantly, I don't think we're going. to get one of these big revisions like. we've had the past 2 years and they. said, "Whoops. We didn't mean it.". >> Mr. Secretary, what about the. >> Then you had Doug Burgum, the Interior. Secretary, after. lying about the catastrophic and.
unlawful war, he then goes and starts. lying with Fox about a. 350-ft slice in the reflecting pool and. that it was criminally caused algae. And. they say, "We've arrested all of these. people." Where Where are the people that. you've arrested? I mean, this is the. It's the dumbest lie, but it's deeply. dangerous because it shows you they're. just willing to lie about everything. When they lie about this, they lie about. Menab and the war crimes they've engaged.
in where they've killed hundreds and. thousands of children in Iran. When. they're willing to lie about this, they're willing to lie about the. justification for getting the United. States into catastrophic war. When. they're willing to lie about a. reflecting pool being sliced up by. vandals who don't exist and they've. never showed any evidence of any of. this, they are easily willing to lie. about the economy and all of the data. that said they're willing to lie about. everything and they do. Here's what Bergmann says, let's play. this clip. >> We were talking during the commercial.
break about the vandalism at the. reflecting pool. I know you have vowed. to go after anybody who has vandalized. There was that 350 foot slice. What do. we know about it? What's the latest? And. do we have cameras up? We have seven. people arrested. >> Well, we we definitely have more cameras. now than before because I guess we'd say. it's unthinkable. This reflecting pool. has been there since 1922. It is. literally part of the Lincoln Memorial. >> [snorts]. >> And so while some people may think it's. cute or interesting to vandalize that,
it's no different than if you walked up. into the Lincoln Memorial and threw red. paint on Lincoln statue itself. I mean, that's you're vandalizing a national. monument. We take that very seriously. and of course the US Park Police part of. the Department of Interior. All of our. great National Guardsmen. I was out last. night. late into the night last night meeting. with National Guardsmen from around the. country. They're teamed up with the US. Park Police to make sure we've got. >> Yeah, hopefully real quick. >> Teddy Roosevelt Museum. >> And then you had again in an obvious.
effort to try to further provoke Iran, you had Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime. Minister of Israel, show up in southern. Lebanon as though he as though he's. Netanyahu the conqueror and he shows up. in Lebanese territory and he walks. around after Israel Katz, that's the. name of the defense minister, says, "We're never leaving Lebanon. We're not. leaving Syria. We're not leaving Gaza.". As Netanyahu says, "There will never be. a two-state solution." And the goal.
here, and Netanyahu says it, is that we. want our Lebanon MOU to destroy the Iran. MOU. Iran will never have a role in the. future of Lebanon at all. And if you look at the Iran MOU that. J.D. Vance entered into and the talks in. Switzerland, it just it's this says the. exact opposite. I'll I'll I'll leave you. with the System of a Down's Serj Tankian. said the following message to. Netanyahu's government. Here, play this. clip.
>> For many years, Israel's government used. AIPAC to lobby the US Congress to. not recognize the Armenian genocide. to prevent Congress from recognizing the. Armenian genocide due to their. relationship with Turkey, their. intelligence sharing with Turkey, etc. Today, the Netanyahu cabinet. decided to recognize the Armenian. genocide of 1915, the genocide that led. Hitler thinking that he could do what he. could do to the Jews in the 1930s and.
40s. Um. the fact that this government is already. committing genocide in Gaza and Lebanon. decided to recognize the genocide of my. grandparents is the worst [ __ ] thing. that they could have done to Armenians. by using our history, our genocide, our. pain to their political advantage. [ __ ]. you. >> Yep, and oh yeah, this just in, Donald. Trump is bragging that the Supreme. Court, one of the rulings by the Supreme. Court, took restrictions off political.
spending. A big win for Republicans and. more importantly, the First Amendment, going off of the Citizens United case. The United States Supreme Court ruled. that there can be a lot more. coordination between. political committees and individuals. And so while there may be campaign. finance caps on individual donations, there's an easy way to get around it. Just tell the individual, "Okay, how. much money you want? Okay, I'm going to. give it to this political committee and.
they'll give you." And we can coordinate. all of this because corporations have a. First Amendment right to infect our. politics with as much money as they. want. And the billionaires and. trillionaires get to buy their. politician. That's just what the First. Amendment said. By the way, the fact. that Trump is putting it in there that. that's a big win for the Republicans or. a big win for America that the. trillionaires and billionaires can. further infect our politics with all of. this money. I mean, seriously. That I mean, that's that's what they're. cheering. They're cheering that on. That.
political candidates are bought and sold. like that. Anyway, hit subscribe. Let's get to 7. million. Thanks for watching, everybody. Want to stay plugged in?
