Trump: The Best Israeli President Ever - 99% Approval w/ Israeli’s

Larry Johnson: Ceasefire COLLAPSES! Iran & Israel trade strikes. What happens next?

Israel reportedly spying on U.S. officials is not the headline that surprised us. The real shock is that the Pentagon leak happened at all, and right as quiet diplomacy with Iran may be gaining momentum. We break down the report that U.S. counterintelligence elevated Israel to the highest threat level, why specific negotiators could be targets, and what that tells us about who’s trying to shape the next phase of the conflict.  From there, we follow the thread into the biggest strategic question: are the U.S. and Iran actually nearing a deal with Pakistan acting as a mediator, and with China’s interests hovering in the background? We talk about what Iran may really want (security guarantees, sanctions relief, unfrozen assets), how Trump could try to sell any agreement as a win on the “Iran nuclear weapon” narrative, and why the nuclear story can distract from a larger shift in Middle East geopolitics and regional security architecture.  We also walk through the latest escalation cycle: strikes on Beirut, Iranian missile retaliation, Israel’s response, and why the “ceasefire” feels more like a knife-edge pause than peace. The Houthis’ moves around the Bab al-Mandab Strait and the Red Sea add another layer, raising the stakes for shipping lanes, energy markets, and U.S. military posture.

Netanyahu's Iran Gamble: Scott Horton Breaks Down What's Really Happening

The Iraq War didn’t just “happen” it was sold with a storyline, staffed by specific operators, and justified by a strategy that had been circulating for years. I’m joined by Scott Horton of the Libertarian Institute to unpack the Clean Break doctrine, what it tried to achieve for Israel’s right wing security vision, and how a set of wildly wrong assumptions helped push the US into a war that ended up strengthening Iran instead of containing it. We walk through the mechanics of how the war case was built: exile sourcing, the Office of Special Plans, alternative intelligence streams, and the WMD and terrorism claims that made Baghdad sound like an urgent threat. Then we connect the fallout to today’s Middle East power map, where leaders are still trying to “fix” the original mistake, often by escalating in new arenas. Scott also explains why Israel’s objectives toward Iran can look less like clean regime change and more like limiting Iran’s ability to support Hezbollah and project power into the Levant, even if that means betting on destabilization. From there we shift to the Trump era crisis: ceasefire fragility, Iran’s demand to release frozen assets as a trust test, and the hard technical reality behind the slogans about nuclear enrichment. We also talk about how Lebanon, Gaza, and the West Bank remain active fronts that can sabotage diplomacy at any moment, and what it would take for Washington to actually restrain Netanyahu if a real US-Iran deal is the goal.

Trump: The Best Israeli President Ever - 99% Approval w/ Israeli’s

Trump says he wants a deal with Iran. Netanyahu hints the real goal is regime change anyway. That contradiction is where diplomacy goes to die, and it is also where Americans get dragged into a war they did not vote for. We roll solo and ask the blunt question a lot of people are thinking but few say out loud: is Trump still representing the United States, or is he effectively acting as Israel’s president on the Iran war? We unpack Netanyahu’s media strategy and why he may be one of the most effective political operators in modern U.S. history, able to keep influence across parties and across administrations. From there, we get specific about the Iran nuclear program: what “enrichment” actually means, why civilian nuclear energy and medical isotopes matter, and how redefining enrichment as a weapons program guarantees a stalled negotiation. We also compare the coherence of Iranian messaging with the whiplash of American statements on ceasefires, blockades, and end goals. Then we zoom out to the battlefield map and the economy. The Strait of Hormuz, tanker attacks, and regional retaliation all raise the risk of a wider Middle East escalation and higher oil prices that hit U.S. households fast. We close with the House War Powers resolution, why Washington calls it “symbolic,” and why that should worry anyone who still believes Congress is supposed to decide when America goes to war.

JIM WEBB : Trump- ‘You’re F**king Crazy’: Is There a Trump-Netanyahu Rift?

Trump didn’t just get “frustrated” with Netanyahu. He confirmed he told him, “Are you effing crazy,” and that single moment raises a bigger question: if the White House is truly fed up, why does the region still look like it’s sliding toward wider war? Jim Webb joins me to break down what matters beneath the gossip-cycle headlines. We talk about Israel’s expanding operations in Lebanon, Iran’s promise to respond harder than tit-for-tat, and the messy reality behind CENTCOM messaging and casualty reporting after attacks tied to Kuwait and Bahrain. If you’ve been wondering whether a ceasefire exists when missiles and drones still fly, we define the terms in plain English and map out where escalation pressures are coming from. We also go where Washington loves to hedge: Israel’s nuclear “non-position” and the legal and political incentives that keep it that way, even though everyone on Capitol Hill knows the score. From there, we connect foreign policy directly to your wallet, from fuel shocks and the Strait of Hormuz risk to what prolonged conflict could mean for inflation and household budgets. Finally, we dig into domestic politics, including the Thomas Massie primary and what massive outside spending signals to every other member of Congress. If you care about US military aid, the Israel lobby, ending the Iran war, and how this all hits the midterms, this is the connective tissue.

Larry Johnson: Is Iran About to Test a NUKE?!

A single rumor can move markets and missiles, but only if it fits a strategy. Kyle and Larry Johnson dig into a startling claim: a message reportedly warned that Iran could withdraw from nuclear negotiations, leave the NPT, and then conduct a nuclear “demonstration” to prove deterrence. We walk through what’s confirmed, what’s not, and why the order of events matters if you’re trying to predict the next headline rather than react to it. From there, we map the ceasefire breakdown and the incentives that push everyone toward escalation. We talk blockades, continued strikes, and how Iran’s options change when it believes the rules are one-sided. We also get concrete about the Strait of Hormuz: mines, submarines, drones, anti-ship missiles, and why “the UN will fix it” is not a plan. If you care about Middle East geopolitics, energy security, and shipping lanes, this is where rhetoric meets logistics. We close by turning to Washington: a 2027 NDAA provision that could deepen US Israel military-industrial integration, potentially shifting decisions into darker corners of the defense bureaucracy. Then we zoom out to the battle over memory itself, reacting to comments about “writing history” and tying it to the Iraq WMD era and the stories Americans were never taught.
