🚨Trump’s Tuesday GOES SIDEWAYS…

We have now learned that a second. individual has died of this plague in. Russia. We are also learning that a. hurricane is barreling towards the. Florida panhandle. IRGC continues to strike ships in the. straight of Hormuz and Donald Trump is. posting the following. Fox News spends. more time covering the jihadists and. Democrat candidates than they do the. good oldfashioned Republicans, the.

people that have saved America and are. making it great again. And if you wanted. further proof of how racist and. despicable he is, he goes, "All they. talk about is Democrat jihadists like. Elsad than Donald Trump post. My rallies. are saving the Republican party again. Your rallies at high school gyms or at. the expo center at the state fair campus. in Nebraska where you talk about nuclear.

bombs in Los Angeles in San Diego and. how that's a small price to pay. He goes. on to say, "My rally crowds and. enthusiasm are just unbelievable. Nobody. has ever seen anything like it. Nobody. fills up high school gyms the way you. do, Donald. As I noted at the outset of. this video, a second victim has died. from the Russian plague outbreak at the. infection zone hospital in the Siberia.

area. Marco Rubio has been asked, "What. do we make of the uh latest death uh in. Russia?" And also about Donald Trump's. social media posts. Rubio is with his. counterpart in Iceland right now. And. Donald Trump had made posts saying that. Iceland is part of the United States. He. put the US flag and map over Iceland. And Marco Rubio is like, I'm not going. to talk about social media posts.

They're just social media posts here. Play this clip. >> Second point, we're not talking about. social media posts. I'm here, we're here. meeting with a country we work very. closely together on. We do a lot of. things together and everything's very. positive in our relationship. So on the. first they're just social media posts by. someone who purports to be the president. of the United States beclouding us all. here. Marco Rubio then describes the. Russian suspected plague case by saying. we encourage Russia to be more.

transparent with us here. Play this. clip. >> Cuz depending on what we learn about it, we would know how to respond. uh we. already uh you know have measures in. place to be able to address it if it's. if it's something you know more serious. than what so far has been acknowledged. Suffice it to say we're glad to be aware. of it. We're watching it very closely. hour by hour. We have multiple agencies. not just in the United States but. internationally that are watching it. We. encourage Russia to be transparent and. share more information uh with the world. so that all of us could react. accordingly and appropriately really.

because last time I checked the Trump. regime is trying to work on a deal with. Russia's Luke Oil. Russia's oil company. and the foreign assets and one of these. Trump MAGA billionaires is looking to uh. purchase those assets along with some of. Trump's Middle East oligarch buds. Um, but Chris Wright, Donald Trump's energy. secretary, says that the continuing rise. of diesel and gas has nothing to do with. Donald Trump's catastrophic war in Iran.

It has nothing to do with the straight. of Hormuz or the Red Sea or anything. about Donald Trump for that matter. Chris Wright says it's all because of. Russian refineries being struck by. Ukraine. And you know, part of this also. is Donald Trump so desperately wants to. do deals with Putin. He wants to say, "Well, look, now we need more Russian. oil, so we have to lift sanctions with. Luke oil, and we need to make deals with. the MAGA billionaires that probably end.

up going to uh Donald Trump." This is. what Chris Wright says here. Play this. clip. >> But we're in a crisis right now with a. shortage of diesel because of a conflict. between Russia and Ukraine. uh China. deciding not to export diesel anymore. and we still have reduced flows of. refined products out of the Middle East, although they're on their way up. >> Also, Donald Trump promised he would end. the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. Donald. Trump said that he had magic words as. soon as he got into office. He said he. would tell those magic words to.

Zalinsky. He would tell those magic. words to Putin and voila, the war would. be resolved in 24 hours. So now Donald. Trump says it's not the catastrophic war. in Iran, which I promised to resolve in. four to six weeks, that's causing diesel. and gas prices to surge. It's actually. the war in Ukraine, which he promised to. resolve in 24 hours after the 2024. election. Now, nobody wants to be seen. with Donald Trump. I did a report about. that earlier today. Even MAGA Republican. governor from Texas, Greg Abbott, does.

not want to be on stage with Donald. Trump when Trump heads to San Antonio. this week for one of those deranged. rallies. We've been showing you how. these MAGA Republican candidates and. like Rick Jackson who's running for. governor in Georgia is purging Donald. Trump and removing Trump from uh his. campaign website. Here you have MAGA. Republican Congress member Mike Lawler. saying no plans for Donald Trump to. visit this district before the election. Here, play this clip. That. >> in order to get anything done, you need.

somebody who's going to stand on their. own two feet. >> Are there plans then for the president. to come back and campaign again? >> No. >> Okay. All right. >> Now, some breaking news about the. climate. It's a story that hasn't gotten. nearly enough attention. So, since the. war with Iran began, Americans have paid. more than $100 billion extra for. gasoline and diesel. Gas has gone from. under $3 a gallon to nearly $450. And I. I bet it's even more where a lot of you. live. And so, recently, in the middle of. all that, what did the Trump.

administration do? Well, they gutted. fuel efficiency standards. The previous. rules would have pushed new cars to. about 50 m per gallon by 2031. The new. target is under 35. And by the. administration's own estimates, they say. that this will increase fuel consumption. and carbon pollution for decades. Like. they are admitting this in their own. numbers. Let me say that again. In the. middle of a fuel crisis, they made it. legal for new cars to burn more fuel. And you're going to pay for that every. time you fill up for as long as you own.

your car. And it's part of this broader. pattern that we're seeing. While the war. dominates the headlines, the. administration has kept quietly tearing. down climate protections, including. moving to repeal limits on power plant. production, and that one is now being. challenged in court by 25 states and. cities. Meanwhile, a quick comparison. So, Britain has saved nearly 6 billion. pounds on gas imports during the crisis. because of record wind and solar. Clean. energy isn't just about the planet, although that's certainly a big thing. It's about not letting a war overseas.

decide what you pay to get to work. If. anything, the war should show us that we. should be less reliant on these fossil. fuels, not more. I mean, what do you. think? Should our officials be doing. more? Do you think that future. administrations need to focus on. re-implementing these standards? And. what do you think of our climate. segments in general? Let me know in the. comments. All right, Ben, back to you. >> No, and I do need to reflect on how. corporate news is trying to normalize. Donald Trump's horrific statements uh. that he's been making at these rallies. It's one of the main reasons we built.

the Midas Touch Network and why. Independent News is so important. Like. the direct quote that Donald Trump said. in Nebraska yesterday was, "Let them. take out Los Angeles and San Diego. It's. a small price." You can listen to it for. yourself what he said, but this is how. Daniel Dale of CNN characterizes it. This isn't a direct quote from Trump, and I very much don't think it's a. correct paraphrase. Trump has repeatedly.

argued that the consequences of the war, like higher gas prices, are a small. price to pay compared to what an. unchecked Iran could allegedly do. Then. he goes on to say, "It's Trump's fault. You kind of have to be steeped in Trump. rally speak to know what he was saying. last night. Why should any of us be. steeped in Trump rally speak? We hear. his words. They are deranged. He talks. about popping aspirin all of the time.

and how he loves it. He talks about how. he loves data centers in people's. backyards, which he now calls SI. centers. And if you don't like data. centers, you're part of a Chinese SCOP. He claims we're in a golden age. He says. we prices are going down. He says he's. never heard of the word affordability. before and it's a madeup word by the. media, but he also says prices are way. down. He claims he brought in $21. trillion and there's so much money.

that's been brought in that everybody's. going to get these dividend checks with. all of the money. It's all false. It's. all fraud. It's all a lie. Why are you. saying, "Well, the Trump speak is this. this?" No. He's a deranged con artist. He is a fraud. He is a sexual predator. he is a criminal. Just use moral clarity. and call it out. It's not, oh, we have. to be steeped in Trump speak. By the. way, I've been seeing this over and over. again. Like Aaron Blake says, here are. Trump's fuller comments about Los. Angeles and San Diego. My read the small.

price to pay comment refers back to the. costs of war like gas prices, not the. idea of Iran nuking Los Angeles in San. Diego. But Trump speaks so ciruitously. these days. These days in the campaign. he was talking about Hannibal Lectar. He. talked about how he would go into the. showers with golfers or these golfers. would go into showers and they would. look at each other's genitals. And I.

mean he says the most derange things. imaginable. And this isn't like oh he. just spokeuitously. on some random topic. We're talking. about nuclear weapons and nuclear. annihilation of American cities. Things. that we would hope the president would. be circumspect and choose the. appropriate words and not just blurt out. or word vomit. California's governor. Gavin Newsome just posted the following. Donald Trump's remarks were dangerous,

if not treasonous, putting a target on. two of our biggest cities and one of. America's largest naval hubs in San. Diego. I'm directing the State Threat. Assessment Center to actively monitor. the situation in the event that foreign. actors interpret the president's remarks. as an invitation to target California. Yeah, words have meaning. And I know. that one of the things of Trumpism and. MAGA is to make words and truth and.

facts just all part of just a game, a. dystopian reality show that we're all. non-consensual participants in. But this. stuff has real impacts. When Donald. Trump says and does these things, it has. consequences. And that's why the. American people are suffering. That's. why people throughout the world are. suffering. This is reality. So stop with. the trying to oh it's just Trump speak. It's just Trump speak everybody that's. all it is. I mean take a look at what's. happening throughout the world as well.

I mean Donald Trump and MAGA claims lots. of tankers are getting out of the. straight of Hormuz and what 14 15 maybe. more tankers have been struck and. disabled by the IRGC in the past five to. 10 days. We've been covering each one of. them here. If you look at the satellite. footage from this morning, lots of. people are saying that there's only. about five tankers attempting to cross.

the straight of Hormuz during the. daytime. And we're talking about only. five tankers. And so I know you know the. Trump all this oil is getting out of the. straight of Hormuz. It isn't. And people. are feeling it in all types of ways. I'll just give you one snapshot over. here. An article from Bloomberg this. morning. >> [snorts]. >> The cost of heating oil in Maine is up. 80% from last year. The fuel now. averages $5.96. a gallon, up about 80% from last year,

amid broad increase in prices stoked by. the war in Iran. That implies a cost of. around $1,500. to fill up a standard residential tank. that typically will have to be. replenished a few times to make it. through the winter. And as we head into. the winter, this is becoming evident, not just in Maine, but I'm sure you're. watching this wherever you're watching. Go, yeah, that's I'm not in Maine, but. I'm experiencing things like that, too. So, this is having real world impact.

And yeah, you know, the Saudi Arabian. regime and other Trumpbacked governments. can try to claim that, oh, there's no. strikes happening in, you know, Riyad. There's no strikes happening in Yanbu or. in Jedha or all these areas where the. Midas touch network. We're showing you. the video of more refineries on fire in. Saudi Arabia. We're showing you the. video of Ansaralam moving further east. in Yemen. You may not like that, but. it's not about do I like it or do I not.

like it. As I've said before, a sick. patient would love to be told they're. healthy and that everything's going to. be amazing. But if you told the sick. patient that they'll get sicker and. sicker and sicker, what you have to do. is say, "Here's the sickness. Now, how. do we fix it and it may be difficult to. fix it? It may be hurtful to fix it, but. that's what you have to do when you're a. responsible leader." Not lie to people. all the time. Saudi airports in Jazan. and Nadron, both located in the kingdom.

southwest, were targeted by Ansarala. Um, you know, and we're going to keep on. reporting on this over and over again, you know. And finally, I want to put. this on everybody's radar. You know, if. you're in the Florida panhandle area, if. you're in the south, you may know this. already, but the hurricane threat is. increasing right now. I mean, quite. literally, the perfect storm with the. Trump regime gutting FEMA, Trump regime. gutting federal resources, already all of the increased prices that.

people are paying right now as a result. of the catastrophic war. And then this. um the newest odds that this weather. system in the Gulf becomes a hurricane. are up to 90% with a probability of a. major hurricane at 36%. So likely there. will be a hurricane it being a major. major hurricane 36%. um and we're going to be evaluating it.

when it hits landfall potentially end of. this week. We'll continue to cover it. here on the Midas Touch Network. Hit. subscribe. Let's get to 7 million. subscribers. Thanks so much for. watching.
