Trump SILENT as IRAN STRIKES AGAIN…
Donald Trump is silent as Iran just. struck another tanker in the Strait of. Hormuz moments ago. A VLCC. of Saudi Arabian origin has been hit by. Iran. A very large crude carrier has now. been destroyed. Here is what we are. learning. Moments ago, this was tanker. hit by three anti-ship cruise missiles. in the US-backed southern Omani corridor.
while completing an outbound transit in. the Strait of Hormuz under US escort per. the UKMTO. We saw this ship, the Cedar, kind of. just stop and slowed. We were wondering. what had happened. The location and. timing coincided with its automatic. identification system data from Marine. Traffic showing the Saudi. Arabian-flagged VLCC slowing down. dramatic- -ally. And now we know why.
What is notable as well and quite. surprising after all of Donald Trump's. bluster and bravado. and with all of the US military assets. that were in the region this evening, the US did not attack at all. You had US. fighter jets. You had Apache helicopters. confirmed by the Mensch open-source. intelligence account that we can see as. well mapped out as well over here.
No response at all. And earlier today, you'll recall the Trump regime leaked to. one of their main stenographer. propagandists, Barak Ravid over at. Axios, the sickening language of the. Trump regime is that they would be doing. mowing operations in Iran. That's their. name for the war crimes of continuing to. bomb and attack Iran. should be noted as. well in mowing operations in addition to.
it being genocidal and war criminal. language. When it comes to mowing, the. grass grows back every week or 2 weeks, which is notable as well. Um we're getting additional. uh satellite imagery confirming as well. some of the Iranian strikes from. yesterday. You'll recall our reporting. this morning that the Muwaffaq Salti. base in Jordan was hit hard by Iran, that two MQ-9 Reapers were destroyed.
yesterday by Iran, a UAE base was. destroyed in Iran, and the Prince Hassan. airbase in Jordan was also hit by Iran. Jordan and UAE claim they intercepted. all of the Iranian ballistics and. stopped all of the drones. That once. again appears to be a complete and utter. lie. Also, what seems to be the case is. that the United States expended. somewhere in the range of 80 to 120.
PAC-3 Patriot interceptors yesterday. The United States Trump regime is. already running very low on these. Patriot interceptors and the THAAD. interceptors, and now they can say um. we're down another 100 or so, which is. very very bad, folks, as the munitions. continue to dwindle away. And at this point, Iran could basically. just even send some dummy ballistics. I.
wouldn't even be surprised if that's. what they're doing, or even some dummy. drones in order to try to uh draw some. of this fire. You know, each of those. PAC-3s are like $4 million each. They. get shot up in twos, so every time they. try to shoot one ballistic or a drone. off and it's $8 million or $11 million, so about. million in munitions were expended. yesterday and Iran still struck these US. bases very very hard. No word from. Donald Trump following the Iran strike.
on this tanker as well that just. occurred moments ago. We're also. learning moments ago. I'll do a bigger. video on this in the morning. So please. make sure you check out the morning. videos. I know you check them out but I. have West Coast time of 4:00 a.m. 5:30. and 7:00 and 8:30, at 10:00, 11:30. Please check in. I'm going to be doing. lots of updates here. But we learned. moments ago Army Secretary Dan Driscoll.
has submitted It's the top civilian. position in the army. Army Secretary Dan. Driscoll submitted his resignation to. Donald Trump after months of tension and. infighting with Defense Secretary Pete. Hegseth over army leadership and the. removal of senior officers. So, Driscoll. was the top civilian position within the. army, Army Secretary. The top military. position within the army, Randy George, former Army Chief of Staff was purged.
and fired by Hegseth. That's one of the. reasons why Dan Driscoll wanted to leave. and why he's resigning as well. So the. United States Army is without civilian. and military leadership right now. The. bankruptcy of our military continues and. it should be noted Randy George and his. wife Patty were beloved in the military. He was probably the most distinguished. and well-respected member of.
[clears throat] our military and that's. one of the reasons Hegseth despised him. Here is why Army Secretary Dan Driscoll. resigned according to reporting by Fox. News Jennifer Griffin. She does do a. very good job, Jennifer. The defense. reporting over there is is at least by. her is good. Driscoll brought up. concerns with the administration. surrounding army transformation and. readiness and Heggseth blocking those. efforts specifically by firing the.
generals who were responsible according. to sources familiar with Driscoll's. decision. So back on May 1st, 2025, Army Chief of Staff General Randy. George, the four-star I was telling you. about, he wrote letter to the force army. transformation initiative and they were. focused a lot on learning the lessons. from Ukraine, drone interceptors, anti-drone, uh, drone technologies,
uh, unmanned submersives, the way modern. warfare was being fought. Heggseth. wanted World War II ethos, inject. yourself with more testosterone. Uh, Donald Trump wanted, uh, nuclear. battleships that looked like battleships. from the 1920s and 1930s. He liked the. aesthetic. He doesn't like the way. stealth looks. Donald Trump doesn't like. electromagnetic launchers on aircraft. carriers. He prefers steam catapults cuz. Trump acts like he's an expert in these.
things and Heggseth would go along with. all of that. That created tension also, the fact that Heggseth refused to. promote, uh, black officers and women, um, to one-star uh, ranks and higher and. that he would often purge the military. of black members as well as women. members, um, and Driscoll and Randy. George and people like that despised. Heggseth for doing that and that was one.
of the other tension points as well. Also, Randy George continued his. investigation of the Apache flyover of. Kid Rock's home which was a major. initiative of Donald Trump and Heggseth. Flying Apaches to Kid Rock is a big deal. to this despicable regime Randy George. that he was going to continue to. investigate that. And Hegseth saw that. also as grounds for removal of one of. our most respected generals. Should be. noted that we're down to less than half.
of the four-star generals we had about a. year ago because this Trump regime is. absolutely despicable and they hate the. military. They hate military families. They hate the United States of America, but they do indeed love Russia. Earlier. today, Russia's Finance Minister Anton. Siluanov met with Treasury Secretary. Bessant at the G20. You heard that. right. I didn't misspeak. The Trump. regime invited the Russian Finance.
Minister Anton Siluanov to go to the. G20. It's the first time this has. happened in a very long time. Bessant. bragged his meeting with the Russians. The Russians bragged about their. meetings with Iran at the Shanghai. Cooperation Organization. I just want. you to see how much they're mocking us. in Russia and in China and in North. Korea and in many other parts of the. world right now. Treasury Secretary. Bessant threatened economic D-Day.
against any country that does business. with Iran. China responded last week. saying we're going to do business with. Iran. Iran has the red carpet VIP. treatment right now in Kyrgyzstan. in Bishkek where there is the Shanghai. Cooperation meeting. Iran's President Pesheshkian met with. the leadership of Russia. Also the leadership of China while at. the same time the red carpet was opened.
up for Russia in the United States at. the G20 in North Carolina right now in. Asheville. I just want you to think. about it. Here's what they're saying in. Russia's TASS, their state media agency. Um, here's what they said. Um, according. to Peskov, who's the uh Caroline Levitt. for Moscow, for Putin. According to. Peskov, the presidents will also discuss. relations between Russia and Iran. And.
you have Lavrov and other. uh Russian leaders who were at the. Shanghai Cooperation Organization. meeting saying, "We remain committed to. the goals and objectives of developing. our partnership in a wide range of areas. with the Islamic Republic of Iran. That. is why a full-fledged very substantive. conversation will take place." So, that's what's going on between Russia. and Iran in the past 24 hours. But, then. you have Russia's finance minister.
meeting with Bessent, and Bessent rolled. out the red carpet for him. I want to. remind you during Donald Trump's. psychotic Oval Office press conference. today, Donald Trump was asked a question. about how several military leaders have. told Hegg Seth that this prolonged and. catastrophic war in Iran is depleting. our munitions and hurting our readiness. And again, that's one of the main. reasons why Driscoll resigned among. others.
Um, listen to what Trump's response was. Play this clip. >> And then on Iran, several military. leaders have reportedly told Secretary. Hagel that a. a prolonged large-scale operation there. weakens our ability to confront threats. elsewhere, including the homeland. Have. you heard those? >> Well, number one, we have nothing else. in mind. Number two, we're very. respected. Nobody else would be crazy. enough to do it. Number three, we have. so much ammunition and munitions, as. they like to call it, all over the world. that we can always take from if we want.
And. this is a relatively little war for us. This is not a big war. You know where. the money went was Ukraine. The money. was really taken out the ammunition if. you talk about low. We have tremendous. amounts unlimited amounts of mid-grade. and older stuff that's also very. powerful. Unlimited amounts. We're only talking. about what we call the elite the elite. stuff and even that we're in very good. shape but we can always take from other. sources but I don't think we're going to.
need it cuz nobody's going to mess with. us nobody. >> And what a sick answer. Just so you. know, let me break it down for you cuz. he splatters words sometimes and it's. hard to concentrate. He said, "This is a. relatively little war for us. This is. not a big war. You know where the money. went was Ukraine. The money was really. taken out the ammunition if you talk. about low. We have a tremendous amounts. unlimited amounts of mid-grade and older. stuff that's also very powerful. They.
say we used it in Iran. We used very. little in Iran by comparison. Joe Biden gave Ukraine over 300 billion. dollars worth of stuff. So still blaming. Biden and also not denying that we're. out of our munitions our Patriots and. our THAADs. That's one of the reasons. why Donald Trump is not likely even able. to escalate and respond because we're. out of weapons right now. The United. States military is out of weapons. Trillions of dollars that could have. went to health care and making America.
actually a more thriving affordable. better place to live went to the. military industrial complex only for. Trump to bankrupt our military. I want. you to think about that. Also, Donald Trump was asked earlier. today what was the thinking behind. inviting the Russians to the G20 meeting. in Asheville? Like why did you do that? And here's what Donald Trump said play. this clip. >> What was the thinking behind inviting. the Russians to the G20 meeting in. Asheville?
>> Well, we're going to see what happens, but we like getting along with. everybody. One of the reasons that I'm so. successful, I get along with everybody. Thank you, Steve. Well, the Russians are meeting with Iran. right now. That's what's actually going. on. Um should also be noted, Morgan.
Stanley now sharply raising their oil. price forecast. Morgan Stanley lifted. its fourth quarter Brent forecast to. $100 a barrel from $75 a barrel. It's. going to be over $100 soon. That's why. Donald Trump also announced his. fraudulent and frantic Venezuela BS. deal, which I've told you and we exposed. over and over again. Total BS, that. tarry, viscous, highly sour uh oil from.
Venezuela can't go into our strategic. reserves, can't be refined anytime soon. There's not really 65 billion barrels. It's all BS. Um. but Donald Trump can feel like he. may that he's dominating Venezuela. That's what he wants to feel like and he. wants to enrich himself. And when the. markets. uh crash and when the economy gets. harmed, he tries to enrich himself. Trump doesn't care about the national. interest of the United States the way.
leaders are supposed to care about. national interest. Trump just wants to. enrich himself. That's it. He's throwing. America under the bus. He's covering up. child sex trafficking rings. That's. what's happening before our eyes. We're. going to keep reporting on it truthfully. and fearlessly every damn day here at. the Midas Touch Network. Now, pre-order.
