In short
The episode argues that a new Iran-related deal is a “capitulation” by Donald Trump that worsens U.S. and regional conditions, and that Netanyahu is driving the conflict while trying to sabotage the deal. The hosts/guest(s) claim Trump is lying about Iran’s nuclear/economic impact, Strait of Hormuz control, and costs (e.g., “$300 million to rebuild” vs “$80 million to destroy”), and that unfreezing Iranian funds is justified by Trump while Republicans previously attacked Obama. They also claim J.D. Vance is being set up as a scapegoat. Notable examples include Trump calling Hamas “behaving very well,” Trump saying Iran should have missiles, and Netanyahu reportedly pressuring Trump via right-wing media. Guest backgrounds aren’t specified in the transcript.
Key claims
Netanyahu is “cornered,” the deal won’t hold, and Lebanon/Gaza escalation is tied to Netanyahu’s agenda and Trump’s shifting incentives.

0:35All right.
0:36Angie Sullivan:Donald Trump has capitulated completely to Iran, has us in a much worse situation than we were with the Obama. What have Americans gained from this materially? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. They are suffering because of the incompetence of Donald Trump and because of all of the Republicans. They could have stopped this a long time ago, But they have no courage and no balls. And the heir apparent of the Trump regime is J.D. Vance, who clearly Trump cannot stand. And he has already said if this deal falls through, it's J.D.'s fault. And so now J.D. Vance is trying to pitch this to America. And he just lies through his teeth in video after video.
1:18Angie Sullivan:Here's the first one. As weakened, their nuclear program destroyed their economy in desperate straits. And if they change their behavior, big things are going to happen. Big things. Everything you just said is a lie. Every single thing. Objective lie. $300 million to rebuild. What took us$80 million to destroy. Billion, I'm sorry. To destroy. And they're selling oil on the open market. And now they completely and totally have all of the control of the Strait of Hormuz. knows. This bent the United States over and fucked us so hard. And here's the thing, J.D. Vance knows it. He knows it. They're even saying it on Fox News.
2:02Well, yeah.
2:03Angie Sullivan:Part of the reason they're doing that on Fox News is because Benjamin Netanyahu, which I'll get to in a minute, is starting a huge campaign because this is Benjamin Netanyahu's worst nightmare. But here's J.D. Vance lying more. And he says Trump was joking about blaming him if the deal falls through. Play the clip. President Trump said yesterday that he was going to blame you if the talks of the rap goes sideways. Are you worried that he's going to make you the fool guy? No, not at all. I mean, I think the president was joking, but as he often does. I actually think he's not joking. And the evidence that Donald Trump is setting up a lot of the people who he loves to humiliate in these cabinet meetings, it's a humiliation kink.
2:49Angie Sullivan:Trump is the sadist in the situation and these people are the masochists. And I mean this sincerely. And he enjoys sadistically watching these people debase themselves. And he is setting J.D. Vance up to completely ruin his political career because Trump is bitter that he was in such a desperate situation that Jack Smith had him cornered like a rat and thought that he was probably going to face prison. He was near bankrupt during all of this. Now, of course, he's six,$7 billion richer. But the tech oligarchs kind of had him by the balls and said, you have to take J.D. Vance or we won't back you and we won't give you money.
3:30Angie Sullivan:So he did it. And Trump is petty and bitter. And it wouldn't matter who that person was. But J.D. Vance happens to be so incredibly unlikable. There's nothing authentic about him that I even enjoy. I never enjoy anything Trump does, but I actually enjoy watching Trump humiliate J.D. Vance and setting him up for the fall guy. But I think what's really interesting here, an interesting take on all of this is I do want this war to end. I want it to be over. And this whole war was started at the behest of Benjamin Netanyahu. And Joe Biden and the Democratic Party gave Israel everything they wanted.
4:14Angie Sullivan:And it wasn't enough because they want to completely expand with this greater Israel project. So they bet on the bigots, the people who want protection. Their argument is we need a safe place for Jews. The government of Israel, separately from the Jewish people, thought, well, we're going to go to these guys because they'll break more laws and they'll do more bad shit. And when you rush to get protection from the people that are knifing other groups, at some point, they're going to knife you. And that's the lesson here. And so Benjamin Netanyahu is spiraling out right now. And here's Trump. Here are Trump's comments just within the last 48 hours, you guys.
4:57Angie Sullivan:This is stunning shit. Pop this up. He said Hamas is behaving very well these days. And I want to remind everybody for about three months now, everybody from the corporate Democrats all the way to the right has had a stage five meltdown about Hassan Piker's statements on Hamas, who is a Twitch streamer. This is the president of the United States that just said Hamas is behaving very well these days. Absolutely no freak out session about this at all. Iran should have missiles. Why not? Well, this is Israel's argument. Israel says Israel has a right to defend itself. Trump is making the argument for Iran, saying Iran has the right to defend itself.
5:38Angie Sullivan:If everybody else has missiles, they should have missiles too. Trump goes on to say, we're going to unfreeze Iran's money. It's their money. Why should we steal their money? Barack Obama unfroze$1.8 billion. Fox News and all of the right-wing nutjobs went into a death spiral for months on end. He additionally said if the war kept going, there would have been an economic catastrophe. so we had to end it. On this point right here, this is where I think we start to get to the meat and potatoes of this issue. The midterms are coming. The economy is going on a decline like this. This shows me that the Republican Party, this fascist regime, is scared of voter turnout.
6:20Angie Sullivan:So that's somewhat comforting that they are listening a little bit to the electorate. That shows that we influenced that statement right there. He goes on to say, some of the guys in the Islamic regime are really nice. And kudos to Iran for hiring a psychologist and a psychiatrist, because that's all you have to do is pile on effusive praise to Trump. And then you can get whatever you want out of him. He says, if Iran didn't open the Strait of Hormuz, our oil reserves would have run out in four weeks, we had to make a deal. Mind you, he had said, you know, a month before, oh, we don't need the oil, we have plenty of oil.
6:56Angie Sullivan:He says, Netanyahu is crazy. They keep keep killing innocent civilians. He needs to be more responsible. This is massive, you guys. This is massive. He went to war for Benjamin Netanyahu. Hillary Clinton was in the news yesterday or the day before saying when I was Secretary of State, I had countless conversations with Netanyahu and the Israelis telling me they're about to fire a nuke at us. You need to start this war. And she said, no, I'd say, well, good luck with that. So MAGA turning on Netanyahu like this is unbelievable considering all of this was done for Netanyahu. And then finally, he says, without me and America, Israel wouldn't exist.
7:45Angie Sullivan:So it goes back to the original thing that I said, when you go to seek refuge with a bunch of bigots and you're a minority group that is seeking safety and refuge. It's really a fool's errand. And this is what the women for Trump are finding out. This is what the Latinos for Trump found out. This is what the blacks for Trump found out. This is what the gays for Trump found out. This is what working class Americans for Trump found out as his polling plummets with working class Americans. Is that not just stunning development about Israel? Well, I think that you're absolutely right. I mean, you hear over and over and over again, this was the only president that was stupid enough to go to war because they told him, oh, you'll be the peace prize winner.
8:31The thing about it is you have the pro-Israeli government on the right that are just slamming this peace deal. Everybody with a pair of eyes knows this peace deal is completely flat. In my opinion, this peace deal will not hold because Iran has required ordered Lebanon to stop bombing Lebanon as part of it, I don't think Netanyahu's going to do it. He's already bombed it since then.
8:59Angie Sullivan:Right. Yeah, he's already bombed it since the signing in Versailles. He's already bombed since then. So this is a mess that Donald Trump got into, and he is not going to be able to get out of it. And something, you know, I have been on watch. When are these Republican politicians going to break the track? It's never happened. Bill Cassidy, who lost his primary, he's saying it's a terrible blunder. Well, you're a fucking coward. But I saw something so interesting. There are more people registering in ruby red Oklahoma as Democrats than Republicans. I think this administration has seen exactly what you said.
9:40They know the midterms are coming. They know turnout is going to be great. And if you've got fucking crazy ass rural Oklahoma registering as Democrats, that's as bad as it gets.
9:52Angie Sullivan:Yeah, but I have some bad news about that, Angie. In the same primary where everybody where Democratic voter registration was up, there was a ballot, a measure on the ballot for the people to raise minimum wage from$7 to$15, I think. And they voted no. The deficit is so massive with Republicans. I think it's a great move. But if people in these ruby red states are going to get up every day, capitalists with no capital, and go vote against their own interest, and they don't vote to raise a minimum wage, we have to be clear-eyed at how focused these powers are. Because those headlines sound good, but the data never ferrets that out.
10:35Angie Sullivan:It never ferrets that out, especially in places like Oklahoma, where so many incredible progressives are, but they are a massive minority and people in these states will not vote for higher wages, which is just stunning. This happened on Tuesday, you guys. All right. And here are some headlines from national papers on the Iran deal. Pop this up. Trump in defeat, the president went to war triumphant and he and will likely leave greatly weakened. Trump settles for Iran deal that falls short of promises how Trump's operation epic disaster turned the world against America. And so this is where you have to be on watch with Trump.
11:22Angie Sullivan:He's back. I believe he's back from France and he is going to get on an awful up in his bed with, you know, filet of fish and quarter pounders. and he is going to start going on a tear. And what we witnessed, the masterclass in how to have dementia and travel at a G7 summit, it was so horrible. And the fact that we do not have a Congress or senators that are saying this is humiliating, this is embarrassing, he's unfit to lead. The fact that we have a vice president who's out there lying for the administration, writing a book, he's enriching himself. If Kamala Harris would have written a book while she was vice president and gone on The View, it would be a major headline.
12:09Angie Sullivan:Now the headlines are vice president goes on The View. Nobody talks about the fact that he's enriching himself off of the vice presidency because that's just how much the Overton window with corruption has moved and how much the Overton window and the way the corporate media covers this have moved, where they just accept these corrupt baseline issues as normal. And that's a huge problem. But here, back to the Israel point, Netanyahu is really freaking out. And you have Ben Shapiro going on Fox, stage five meltdown. And pop this up. This is crazy. Netanyahu is reportedly trying to influence the final Iran deal by using right wing media figures like Mark Levin and friendly Republican senators to pressure Trump, according to CNN.
12:59Angie Sullivan:The report also says Netanyahu has told Trump that Israel does not consider itself bound by the agreement, despite its requirement for an immediate and permanent end to the war in Lebanon. So this is something that journalist Glenn Greenwald wrote about, that if Mark Levin is clearly like an agent for Israel and should be registered as such. If there were Democrats who were advocating and trying to put on a pressure campaign to change U.S. policy like this, the Republicans would be losing their minds. Yeah, but here's the thing. And you have brought it to the forefront. I think the best in the news space is that the same people line both Democrats and Republicans pocketbooks.
13:50And so that's why you're just not seeing a big outcry. But here's the thing. Israel right now, or the Israeli government right now is so profoundly unpopular. They are profoundly unpopular globally. You have the European Union, Spain, wanting to take charges against Netanyahu to The Hague. I was reading this morning, Netanyahu has to sit for his criminal trial before October, according to the laws of Israel. So my question is, between now and then, what kind of huge meltdown are we going to see from this guy? Because what he's been doing, having his Zionist friends buy up the media, buy up social media, doing all of that, and it's not working.
14:37It's backfiring. So what is, I mean, if you think that I think he has any loyalty to Trump, he doesn't give a fuck. He's going to do whatever the fuck he wants. So I've got my eye on him have for a long time. But now I think it's amped up knowing his window is like five months.
14:55Angie Sullivan:Well, and he has historically gotten out of a lot of these trials. And because he creates catastrophes that allow him to skirt around them. And so I think we have to be aware of the escalation because he's cornered right now and the one guy that he went all chips in on because Trump is so easy to manipulate. And it's interesting. I read online that, you know, Trump has recently been talking about Lebanon a lot. He never gave a shit about civilian deaths in Gaza ever. But he keeps saying what they're doing in Lebanon is wrong. BB's not being responsible. They're taking it too far. They're killing Lebanese civilians.
15:37Angie Sullivan:This isn't something that the FIFA Peace Prize winner ever speaks about. So if you dig into it, his least favorite child, Tiffany Trump's husband's family, he's a billionaire. The father-in-law of Tiffany Trump is Lebanese, and he's an advisor to Donald Trump. And there's always been this has always been said about Trump. Whoever has his ear last is who is the most influential what comes out of his mouth. I think there's just something interesting to the whole thing too, because, and I don't know how to put all the pieces together, but Kushner's family, really good friends with Bebe. Bebe and Kushner have to be at odds.
16:22Angie Sullivan:Something has to have happened behind the scenes because apparently Kushner and Wyckoff helped broker this deal. Of course, they're going to rat fuck J.D. Vance and peg the whole thing on him. But here is what our little queen is calling critics of the deal. Pop this up. These fools who think I haven't been tough enough on Iran when the stock market just hit a record high and oil prices are tumbling down are either jealous, bad people, or stupid. Make America great again, President DJT. So I don't know if he is feeling his own mortality right now. I don't know who has his ear. But this is a change.
17:12Angie Sullivan:The peace still sucks for America. It's a waste of money, all of those things. I'm glad we're not going to continue to fight Israel's war. It delivers zero materially for the United States of America. All of these bombs, all of the costs delivered nothing for all of the people who were polled and polled and polled. Why'd you vote for Trump? Inflation, inflation. It made everything for our country worse. But, you know, I don't know. I'm just seeing a huge shift in Trump, almost like he doesn't give a fuck anymore. And he used to care like his ego kind of. I want to be the most badass. This capitulation and him kind of embracing it, I don't know.
17:56Angie Sullivan:It's really kind of freaking me out. The cognitive decline could be a factor, but I'm with you. I think that Netanyahu's cornered like a rat. I think Trump is not going to stay on this. I think he is going to do something nefarious because now he's got the prices to contend with, the midterms to contend with. The Epstein files are blowing and going. Like all the things that got him into the Iranian war were now sitting on to the point about Jared Kushner and Tiffany, Trump's husband. Don't I mean, Tiffany's his least favorite child. Ivanka's his most favorite child. So I'm stunned. I mean, that's that's interesting.
18:40Angie Sullivan:It is. Somebody pointed out, I think it was Glenn Greenwald on Twitter. The reason why he started talking and caring about Lebanon is because Tiffany's husband is a Lebanese Christian. And then Tiffany's husband's dad is this big billionaire of Lebanese descent. And he's an advisor to Trump. And so obviously there's always money in it. Anybody with a lot of money can influence him. But I'm surprised that, I mean, Jared Kushner is a pretty big, I mean, hardcore genocidal Zionist, in my opinion. He's the one who made horrific statements like, you know, there's great real estate opportunity in Gaza.
19:17Angie Sullivan:And those are people's homes for for centuries. I mean, just really, really deplorable stuff. So that. I just I don't trust these people like you. I don't trust the peace deal. I think Netanyahu will I do not put it past him to try to do some sort of Pearl Harbor type attack on America. some false flag operation to try to pin it on Iran. I just don't trust him at all. I think he is a maniacal leader of a genocidal death cult who will stop at nothing to stay in power and continue killing Palestinians, Lebanese people, Iranians, and so on. I mean, he just, his thirst for killing is something for the history books.
20:01Angie Sullivan:I mean, it's like, you know, our grandkids are going to sit there and read about Bibi the butcher. I mean, that's, that's the way he is going to be remembered as a man who killed millions of people when it's all said and done. All right. Listen, I would like to dedicate today's book commercial, not today, fascist to none other than the aforementioned B.B. the butcher. So he is a fascist America. We have a chance to continue to fight for our country. The midterms are coming up. We have to show up in record numbers because they are going to cheat. And the only way to overcome that is a massive voter turnout like they did in Hungary because Viktor Orban tried to rig it but it was too big to rig.
