Trump’s BLUFF IS CALLED and GIVES FULL LICENSE to IRAN!!
Donald Trump is panicking all morning. and he has issued a full general license. and absolute waiver to Iran allowing. Iran to sell its oil and petrochemicals. and other natural resources to the rest. of the world using US dollars. Now, Donald Trump talked a very tough game. yesterday. He threatened that he was. going to kill all of the Iranian. negotiators. This morning we see massive concessions.
coming from Donald Trump and then he. quickly turned his attention to. the reflecting pool and now they are. draining the reflecting pool once again. in Washington D.C. Donald Trump is. blaming the algae infestation on vandals. and Antifa. You can't make this stuff. up. And from what we're hearing and. everybody in D.C. is saying, while they. are draining this reflecting pool, people are saying they've never smelt.
such a noxious and disgusting smell. before. Between the algae, the hydrogen. peroxide, and all of the lining, it's mixed to. form this putrid odor that's making. people want to vomit next to it. I just. sincerely hope that that's the least of. the problems because, you know, this. seems like. there could be major major issues with. all of the chemicals that were put in.
there the same way I've been flagging. all of the asbestos that likely exists. when Donald Trump tore down the East. Wing. I think we'll hear about this in. years, maybe longer, about all the. carcinogens in the air right outside the. White House when they just tore it down. like that. We're focused on that here at. the Midas Touch Network, of course. So, here's what happened first thing this. morning. The Trump administration issued. a 60-day general waiver suspending US.
sanctions on Iranian crude oil, petroleum, petrochemical products, and. more, allowing Iran to sell its oil on. the global market, including to the. United States through August 21st, 2026. The Treasury Department's OFAC general. license authorizes related banking, insurance, shipping, and other. transactions necessary to facilitate. those sales, while excluding. transactions involving Cuba, North.
Korea, and Russian-occupied regions in. Ukraine. It is notable that based on my. reading of the law, you require congressional approval to do. this because it also involves Iran's. nuclear program, but Donald Trump. doesn't ever respect the law, and Maga. Mike Johnson has turned our House of. Representatives and Congress into the. Russian Duma, so that's what's going on. there. As Javier Blas, he's been really.
good covering this, he writes, "Crucially, the general license not only. allows importers of Iranian oil to pay. Tehran, including via previously. sanctioned entities, but also to do so. in US dollars. For 60 days at least, Washington is allowing Tehran back into. the dollar club to repatriate its. petrodollars, and this rolls back 40. years plus of American oil sanctions to. Iran." This will likely turn Iran into. one of the wealthiest nations in the.
world, and I think we will start to see, and we are seeing already this morning, Iran take advantage of that. They've. been prepared. They've had a plan, and. we have seen lots of tankers, lots of. those VLCCs, um leaving through the Strait of Hormuz. now, but what we're really seeing the. majority of them, Iranian tankers, VLCCs, Chinese link tankers, and even. Iran's top energy executive who was in.
Switzerland for these negotiations said. as of yesterday, Iran had been able to. transfer and get out of the Strait of. Hormuz over 25 million barrels. We. believe that number is going to become. closer to 40 million barrels. Now, Iran's foreign minister, Araghchi, actually held the Switzerland talks as. making major progress, although he makes. very clear with respect to the.
reciprocal obligations owed to the. United States, any of the benefits. flowing to the United States, that comes. later. Specifically, once Israel leaves Lebanon. and once there is a true ceasefire in. Lebanon. So, the way Iran structured. this deal, starting with Article 1, is. that the US has to go commitment for. commitment, and the US needs to pass a. series of tests, and then Iran will.
unlock. later the benefits that flow to the US, which basically it's what's in the JCPOA. originally under the Obama deal to let. the IAEA inspectors in, for Iran to. continue to enrich uranium, but down. blend so it's not weapons grade. Again, everything in the JCPOA. And then, of course, we went to this. catastrophic and unlawful war in the. first place, which we shouldn't have. done. And also, I think Iran realizes,
"Look, let's get our benefits right. now," which basically negates the whole. purpose of the US blockade. Let Iran. make all of this money, and Iran. figures, "Israel's never going to leave Lebanon. Donald Trump is incapable of keeping his. word or following through with the deal. So, let's extract our benefits. immediately. Let's continue to do that. And then inevitably, Israel's going to. breach and Trump will breach, but we. will have gotten in our benefits. I. think that's the calculus. And I think,
look, hope springs eternal. I think. everybody hopes for peace. Me included. But, here's what Israel said this. morning. Netanyahu. posted a video message saying, "The directive from me and the Minister. of Defense, the Minister of Defense in. Israel's named Israel Katz, to the IDF. is clear. We have not changed. Our. forces in southern Lebanon have full. freedom of action to thwart any direct. or emerging threat against them or. residents of the north. The IDF faces no.
restrictions in this regard. I stand. behind them. The entire nation stands. behind them. I remain firm in my. position that we will stay in the. so-called security zone." That's what. they call it in Israel. "In southern. Lebanon for as long as necessary to. protect the residents of the north and. all citizens of the state of Israel.". So, Israel's saying, "Donald, we will. not comply with any of your. deconfliction initiatives. We are. staying in Lebanon." Then his National. Security Minister Ben-Gvir says, "The.
cost of giving in to international. pressure is a heavy one. My position is. instead of ceasefire, we should attack. Beirut." And he also said that he. believes that there should be thousands. of Lebanese mothers mourning and that. would make him happy, apparently. [snorts]. Here is what J.D. Vance said at a press. conference earlier this morning about. Donald Trump continuing to threaten to. kill the Iranian negotiators. J.D. Vance.
is like, "Yo, I'm a millennial. We'd. call this trash talking. Iran does some. trash talking to us? Of course, you got. to expect Donnie's going to trash talk. you back by threatening to kill you and. close the Strait of Hormuz and commit. genocide. That's what do we do in the. United States. We do jokes in war and. peace. LOL JK, that's what the. millennials do. This is what like JD. Vance really said. I mean, it's. terrific. Let's play this clip. Look,
>> um. what what what we told the Iranians. yesterday is when you guys engage in. what us millennials might call trash. talk, you can't expect the President of. the United States not to respond and not. to correct the record. So, when they say. things that aren't true, the President. is going to respond to it. I'm going to. respond to it. Americans are going to. respond to it. When they make threats. that aren't rooted in reality, they have. to accept that the President of the. United States is actually going to set. the record straight. That's all that. happened. So, yes, there was a little. bit of threatening, there was a little.
bit of whining, but at the end of the. day, the talks continued and we made. great progress. >> Did you know that helping dolphins led. to the first essential fatty acid. discovery in over 90 years? It's called. C15 and it's a total game-changer for. aging healthier. Fatty 15 co-founder Dr. Stephanie Venn-Watson discovered C15. while working with the US Navy to. improve the health of older dolphins. It. turns out C15 is a foundational nutrient. that actually strengthens our cells. Without it, we develop cellular. fragility syndrome, a deficiency that. affects one in three people worldwide,
causing our cells to age faster. Fatty. 15 repairs age-related damage and. protects your cells from breaking down. It's actually shown to have three times. more cellular benefits than omega-3. By. activating pathways that regulate sleep, mood, and metabolism, it helps you feel. better now and stay stronger as you get. older. In fact, 70% of customers report. deeper sleep, calmer moods, and better. energy within just 16 weeks. Because. we're all aging, healthy aging needs to. start now and fatty 15 is the. science-backed way to do it. I'm a huge.
fan of fatty 15 and I've personally felt. the benefits. Fatty 15 was developed to. support healthy aging for all, from kids. to parents to grandparents. That's why. award-winning fatty 15 is now available. as pure capsules, delicious apple mint. gummies for teens and adults, and yummy. berry blast gummies for kids. Fatty 15. is on a mission to support healthy aging. for all, including all ages and stages. of life.

Vance said, "I got another one for you. It's funny. You want to hear another. joke? I was trying to call some of the. nuclear inspectors last night, lol jk, and could you believe it? They were. sleeping at 2:00 a.m. So, we weren't.
really able to get some technical. details in there. Okay, ev- everybody. find this to be funny jokes? Here, play. this clip. >> Also, in terms of when we could see this. entire conflict end, do you think this. can end by the midterm elections? >> Well, look, right now the conflict is in. a ceasefire and our certainly our hope. is that we get to the final deal and a. perm- permanent settlement, but right. now I think we made great progress and. we should all celebrate that. In terms. of when the nuclear inspectors are going. to start, it's funny, we were trying to. call some of the inspectors last night. around 2:00 in the morning. As you can.
expect, not many people are answering. their phone at 2:00 in the morning. I. expect that will happen at the minimum. this week, but we we think even some of. those conversations with the inspectors. and with the IAEA could happen as soon. as today, but um I I haven't checked in. with our team since we made that 2:00. a.m. phone call to some of those. inspectors. >> And then J.D. Vance says, "But let's. talk about what we've done, like. building a house. We set the foundation. We haven't built. the house, but we laid a successful.
foundation. I would say it may be like. this, JD. It's kind of like building the Trump. reflecting pool. You paint it blue, and. then you say there's no algae, and then. when there's problems, you blame the. vandals. You blame antifa. And JD, you. you may actually end up being the. vandals and antifa in this one. Here, let's play this clip. >> Uh we laid a very good foundation for a. successful final deal. The final deal is.
the house. We we set the foundation. We. haven't built the house, but we've laid. a successful foundation to get to a good. place for the American people. >> But JD Vance says at the end of the day, we know that a ceasefire doesn't really. mean a ceasefire. It just means less. fire. And that's what JD Vance has to. say. Let's play this clip right here. >> Two, we also wanted to build a. mechanism, a similar mechanism for. deconfliction for the regional. ceasefire. As the President of the. United States has himself said,
sometimes these ceasefires just mean. you're shooting a little bit less, but. we wanted to make sure that we had the. proper coordination set up so that if. there is shooting, if Hezbollah fires at. Israel, or if Israel responds, if there. are other conflicts that arise in the. region, we're actually talking to each. other and figuring out how to stop the. shooting, how to make the region safer, our allies and everybody else. >> Now, going back to the reflecting pool. for a moment, earlier today we saw. significant law enforcement presence.
around the reflecting pool. The Trump. regime has deputized about 44 different. uh law law enforcement agencies across. the country to work around the clock in. the reflecting pool. Um you see right. over here, Matt Viser posts uh what the. reflecting pool was looking like this. morning. Joe Flood confirms the stench. Reflecting pool is really smelling. badly. Donald Trump posted the following. message of the many statues and. fountains that we rebuilt, renovated,
cleaned, and fixed, the only one that. was vandalized was the reflecting pool, which is being taken care of ASAP. It's. been given a 300-ft long gash. Chemicals. have been illegally placed in the water, and the beautiful new grass field has. been destroyed with gigantic 8647. chemically carved into it, probably. inspired by dirty cop James Comey. Please remember that there is a 10-year. prison sentence for the destruction or. even the attempted destruction of such. things, which will be fully enforced.
Thank you for your attention to this. matter. DJT. Let's also not forget that. yesterday Donald Trump would not allow. UK's Prime Minister Keir Starmer to. resign in dignity. Donald Trump had to. basically box Starmer before Starmer. gave his resignation this morning, which. he did. This is what Donald Trump wrote. yesterday. Keir Starmer will resign as. Prime Minister. He failed badly on two. very important subjects, immigration and.
energy. Open North Sea oil. I wish him. well. DJT. And with the real issue that. led to the no confidence, as we all. know, there was a lot of issues, but the. Epstein files and specifically enabling. pedo protectors in his government and. then kind of covering it up was kind of. the straw that broke the camel's back, if you will. But Prime Minister Keir. Starmer in a typical British fashion, dignified, resigned with grace. Let's. show you what went down. Let's play this.
clip. >> I have heard the answer of my. parliamentary party. to that question. And I accept that answer. with good grace. Every decision I've taken. has been about putting the country I. love first. That is why I will resign as leader of. the Labour Party. I have spoken to His Majesty the King. this morning to inform him of my.
decision. I will ask the National Executive. Committee of the Labour Party to set out. a timetable with nominations opening on. the 9th of July and completed by the. summer. >> Now, Andy Burnham many believe will now. become the leader of Labour and the new. Prime Minister, although things can. happen. There could be. a contest, but we will we will see. He. writes the following message. Again, dignified, very British. It is good It's. good It's good to see this. Keir has.
given a huge service to our country. I. want to thank him for the leadership and. dedication during such a challenging. period. His decision marks the beginning. of a transition and it is important that. this process is conducted in an orderly. and responsible way. Two other points I. want to make. Now, the State Department. is saying that Marco Rubio who refused. to show up in Switzerland during these. critical negotiations, he'll instead be. traveling to the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Bahrain. He'll be with the.
Gulf Cooperation Council countries to. talk about shared priorities across the. region. So, notice he leaves it to J.D. Vance to actually have the discussions. with the Iran which should be the role. of the State Department while he on the. periphery deals with the GCC countries. that were working with the United States. in the invasion against Iran and those. countries were hit obviously very hard. by Iran. And so, I truly believe that. Rubio works behind the scenes to.
sabotage. the peace process, but you know, I think. that between Rubio and Trump and all. these incompetent people, I want to give peace a chance I don't I. don't want peace. I want peace. That's. what I want. I want peace. I want this. to work. But, I just want to highlight. the realities of also what's happening. And these realities are also reflecting. with James Comer. He was on state regime. Newsmax this morning. And Newsmax was. saying, "It seems like the Qataris. snubbed JD. Are they underestimating the.
power of the United States?" And then. James Comer's like, "Oh, they shouldn't. underestimate our power. We do what we. say and we say what we do. That Donald. Trump does. Yeah, he's the strongest. ever, man. Yeah.". Here's what James Comer says. Let's play. it. >> Congressman, I I looked at some of the. video of the peace talks and even JD. Vance, the vice president, as he's. walking in, the Qatari minister snubbed. him. I don't know if you saw that that. viral video. There's this kind of body. language that they're exuding that they.
think they're the ones in control here. Are they underestimating the power of. the United States, the power of. President Trump, the FAFO when it comes. to Trump that he says what he means and. he means what he says? You just heard. Senator Lindsey Graham talking about. obliteration. President Trump on Easter. Sunday saying that he would do away with. their civilizations. Are they not. comprehending that the president The. president is is not Joe Biden. >> If Iran underestimates President Trump,
they will do that. to their own peril because I think what. we've seen over the the 6 years of the. the Trump presidency is that. he he does what he says. And I think. that again, it's important that people. like Lindsey Graham and and others in. the Senate. get President Trump's back when he says, "Look, we're going to go do whatever it. takes to reopen the the strait and then. ensure that Iran doesn't have nuclear.
weapons because I think Iran sitting. back watching MSNBC and reading the New. York Times thinking, 'Oh, we've got them. here. We're winning this war.'" And. that's not what what's happening. And I. and I'm really happy that uh Trump sent. Vice President Vance over there. I think. he has the right disposition. He's very. intelligent. He's a He's a great student. of history. Uh and and he's negotiating from a. position of strength. And the strength. is has already been demonstrated with. our United States military. as well as the commander-in-chief that.
that will do whatever it takes to to win. this war. >> All right. Thank you. There you have it, everybody. Let me know what you think. about all of this. Hit subscribe.
