2:58Ben Meiselas:All hell is breaking loose as everything is falling apart on Donald Trump's big day. Iran says there will be no deal signed today after Israel just attacked in Daya, Beirut, a massive Israeli strike derailing the purported deal between the United States and Iran, which was set to be signed today. Also, Donald Trump was going to have that UFC event tonight. Here's what we're hearing from the Weather Channel. UFC Freedom 250 is facing a chaotic weather setup at the White House South Lawn. 60 % chance of thunderstorms, heavy downpours, and wind gusts up to 34 miles per hour, threatening to delay or perhaps totally shut down the outdoor fights.

3:47Ben Meiselas:Rain, 30 mile per hour winds, and mosquitoes on the White House lawn. But more significantly, look at these Israeli strikes taking place right now in Beirut. They are blowing up full city blocks. This is a massive Israeli attack on the eve of a deal that was supposed to be signed today. And Netanyahu is now sending a birthday message to Donald Trump. Netanyahu posting a photo of himself hugging Donald Trump and saying, Happy birthday. Our relationship has never been closer as Israel is quite literally derailing the opportunity of the peace deal that we all expected. We're very skeptical of, though, in the sense that we believe that this exact situation would be happening.

4:33Ben Meiselas:And here you can see these buildings being destroyed in Beirut right now. A diplomat is telling Fox this is a clear attempt by Israel to sabotage Donald Trump's deal and drag the United States back into war. But Netanyahu's message was happy birthday with a photo of him hugging Donald Trump. Doesn't that say everything right there? Meanwhile, Iran's parliament leader, MB Galibov, and lead negotiator in connection with this deal, along with Foreign Minister Aragji, put out the following statement. Israel's violation in southern Lebanon have again proven that it neither has the desire to fulfill its obligations or lacks the ability to do so.

5:17Ben Meiselas:By giving a green light, you cannot achieve excuses. The game of bad cop and a good cop is already obsolete. If you have no will or ability to fulfill your obligations, there is nothing to talk about along the way. And Iran says, no deal. We will not be signing a deal today on your timeline. This is what you wanted. This is what you get. Donald Trump then posts this morning's attack on Beirut should not have happened, particularly on a special day when we are so close to a peace deal with Iran. Israel has the right to defend itself against threats, but the attack it was responding to was very small and meaningless.

5:58Ben Meiselas:Nobody was hurt, injured or killed and should not disrupt this important process. We are very close to a deal that will bring peace to the region, including to Lebanon, and all sides should stand down. There should be no more attacks by Israel anywhere in Lebanon, but there should also be no more attacks by any other party, including Hezbollah against Israel. This could be the beginning of a long and beautiful process. Let's not blow it! Thank you for your attention to this matter. Well, Israel is also saying right now that Netanyahu called Donald Trump and rejected any possibility that Israel will withdraw from Lebanon, that it will withdraw from Syria, that it will withdraw from Gaza.

6:40Ben Meiselas:Israel considers this its territories that it is occupying, and it says it will not leave these areas. And again, Netanyahu posting happy birthday messages to Donald Trump while absolutely destroying the United States foreign interest and our economy. And moments ago, Donald Trump just called up Barack Ravid, his stenographer over at Axios, reporter at Axios. And Donald Trump just said, I mean, dude is actually panicking right now. Trump said, we were supposed to sign the deal this morning and the Israeli strike in Beirut delayed it. I think the signing will take place today. But within the next few hours, he then said, why did Bibi have to do a fucking attack?

7:19Ben Meiselas:I was so pissed off. I let him know he has no fucking judgment. Why did he do that? I conveyed this message to him. I'm very, very unhappy with the strike in Beirut right now. Meanwhile, a member of parliament from Iran is saying, OK, this is what Israel did. We're going to strike back hard. Ibrahim Azizi, the leader of the Iran's parliament's National Security Commission, stated that a strong response is coming in response to the Israeli attack on Beirut. this morning. And he said, if you can't control Israel, then there's no deal happening. The Trump regime needed to have their surrogates out there today to try to dance around this and make the American people think that this is fantastic.

7:58Ben Meiselas:As American people are going bankrupt, on the brink of bankruptcy, and are psychologically tortured, a former failed Fox Weekend anchor who is now the Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, was on Face the Nation. And he was being asked about, how is this deal that you're negotiating supposed to be different than the JCPOA that Obama did without having to destroy the American economy and destroy America's foreign interest? How is this different? And you'll see Hegseth just kind of muttering and stuttering. And he's like, because we used the military. We did it with lethality, which is everything wrong about their approach to everything.

8:44Ben Meiselas:Do you think you got a better deal by breaking up the prior deal? And we're learning the terms of this current so-called deal. You're going to give$25 billion to Iran. It's kind of an undisputed term. And probably when you add up all the other investments and loans that are being promised, that number could be close to$300 billion. Iran will still control the Strait of Hormuz. And then it says in 60 days, then we'll begin negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear capabilities. And then rather than have a multilateral organizational structure confirm that Iran is actually getting rid of its nuclear material, it just basically calls upon Iran to downblend on its own.

9:27Ben Meiselas:And it's just based on, you know, just please do it in the current terms that we are seeing. Here is what Hegseth had to say. Let's play this clip. Are you keeping the force posture in place through the 60 days of negotiations and beyond? Oh, we'll make sure the military option is there. And that's the big difference between this and JCPOA and the way Obama did it. Obama, they begged Iran for a deal and we bombed Iran and then put in a blockade and then ran ships through and then have restarted when necessary to ensure that they come to the table for a great deal. So our military posture will be whatever it needs to be to ensure they're compelled over this 60 days through the memorandum of understanding that they live up to what they said they would do.

10:19The document says Iran will never have a nuclear weapon, won't seek one, won't buy one, won't have one. And 60 days, there'll be negotiations to make that final, but they didn't have the threat of military force the way that we do, that Iran respects in a very way that their regime is more devastated, more devastating, excuse me, more devastated than it's ever been in its 47 years. And that's why they're at the table. So the huge difference is we did this from a position of strength. President Trump led with military might.

10:49Ben Meiselas:Then you have these MAGA Republican senators trying to spin it, like Deb Fisher of Nebraska. We did this from a position of strength. You think this is a position of strength? That's what's wrong with you, Magus. This ain't from a position of strength. I believe America's never looked weaker to the world. I mean, you may want to tell yourself that this looks strong, but if you truly believe that, then you've got a lot of issues. Let's play this clip. Let's remember the president's negotiating now from a position of strength. Iran is weak. We have gone in. We've showed the strength of America. And now the president's able to negotiate from a position of strength this time.

11:31It's not going in and just acquisition to what the Iranians want.

11:39Ben Meiselas:Then you have MAGA Republican Senator Tim Scott. And he's like, I get it. Gas prices are too high, but we are about to reduce these prices so damn quickly because of the deal. What, the deal that's not happening? The deal that you keep on talking about? This will be the 40th time of this. Let's play this clip. Obviously, gas prices are just too high and President Trump is making the right decisions in Iran that will lead to lower gas prices in the very, very near future. So I'm excited about bringing those prices down. And let's check in quickly. What's going on at the White House right now? Are they treating the White House with dignity and respect or have they turned it into a literal junkyard circus with lights that are beaming that are preventing pilots from being able to see in this?

12:32Ben Meiselas:I mean, it looks like it looks like some dystopian carnival from a zombie movie. And here's what's going on in the White House, everybody. Yeah. Here, play this clip.

12:52Ben Meiselas:And then you have this, which is just kind of utterly disgusting. This is what's one of the things that's happening in the White House too. A fighter, Josh Hockett, spitting on himself in front of the White House. This is what's taking place in the people's house right now. Okay. This is what's going on, supported, endorsed by the Trump regime. Let's play it.

13:17So what, maybe I was drinking last night. But who wouldn't be? I have a giant black man that wants to knock me out. He has the most knockouts in UFC history. at least do it josh 231 231 the official weight for josh hogan

13:48Ben Meiselas:and ladies and gentlemen if you would please and folks with all of this disinformation out there with all of these lies from the trump regime it's just so important that we have accurate news sources right now and i often get asked ben what do you what type of sources do you use to make these videos and how do you kind of research and study to maintain your objectivity. I use Ground News. I partner with Ground News to stay objective in my reporting. It's an app and website that pulls in thousands of articles from around the world and organizes them into how the left is reporting them, how's the right framing it, how's the center framing it.

14:21Ben Meiselas:And for every story, they give me a color-coded layout to make it easy to see the political bias of each source. I can also see independent news versus news that's related to corporate interests and so i can compare different stories and see how they're being reported let's give you an example you know this morning this article palestinian death toll in gaza top 73 000 officials say as israeli continues to strike despite the ceasefire which we should be calling a fake ceasefire this is being heavily reported on the left and in the center but it's getting almost no like quite literally basically zero coverage on the right.

14:56Ben Meiselas:And so they're just not being educated and told what's really happening out there. And there is a cover up of the genocide that's taking place. And I think that's a big deal. And I want to study how are different people getting their news sources. Ground News has this dedicated blind spot feature. It's a personal favorite of mine, which highlights stories being disproportionately covered on different sides. So I believe in Ground News so much, so I'm going to offer you 40 % off the same vantage plan that I use for my research.

One more time, go to ground.news. MTN or scan the QR code up here. Getting back to my video right now, I want to talk about former President Obama was asked about everything that was going on right now. Here's what Obama had to say. Let's play this clip. It is doubtful that any agreement that arises is going to be significantly different or a significant improvement from the deal that we had in the first place and had worked for a long stretch of time before the United States pulled out of it.

16:17So I'm hopeful that bombing stops and ordinary people are no longer suffering as a consequence of the war. I think in retrospect, it's a reminder that on a lot of difficult foreign policy problems, the notion that we can just bully our way or bomb our way to solutions may sometimes seem appealing. but the fact of the matter is is that taking the time to explore diplomacy and exhaust the possibilities of coming up with deals that don't solve 100 % of the problem but solve 80, 90 % of the problem while avoiding the necessity of going to war. You'd think we would have learned that lesson by now but it seems like every so often And we have to relearn that lesson again.

17:24You can see.

17:25Ben Meiselas:And now MAGA's are also preparing for the midterms. And so what they're trying to do right now is things cannot be worse off in the United States. They're just trying to scare people. And they're trying to do the name calling and the usual MAGA tricks that we've been warning you about. So this is MAGA Republican Congresswoman Lisa McClain. Here's what she has to say. Let's play it. Resonating with the American people. What do you need to do to ensure you don't lose the majority in the House? What is the most important messaging you need to convey to voters coming up to the midterms? Yeah, this is going to be a contrast for America.

17:59It's going to be a contrast election between common sense and crazy. Republicans were common sense. I think males should go in male locker rooms. Females should go in female locker rooms. I actually think we should punish the criminal and take care of the victim. The other side is absolutely crazy. And that is what we need to focus on. Common sense versus crazy.

18:24Ben Meiselas:Or here's what MAGA Republican Senator Katie Britt has to say. Let's play this clip right here. And we're not going to let Democrats who are now run by anti-socialist, literally, I mean, anti, they're run, excuse me, Maria, they are run by anti-Semitic socialists. And we're not going to let those people win the day. Yeah. And so you see the fear mongering and the tactics that they use. back to Pete Hegseth for a second. And Pete Hegseth is being asked a very basic question, which is, you know, so I'm just curious, are we going to put ground troops to get this nuclear material? What's the what is the plan?

19:02Ben Meiselas:What is this deal really about? Watch what Hegseth says right here. Let's play it. It's a it's an important point for those who are members of the U.S. military to understand whether you are saying ground troops would be involved in cleaning up nuclear dust.

19:19You're saying that you're trying to put words on a mask to create a headline. What I'm saying is we have we have plans. No, we have plans for everything. And should the president need a, you know, a compel option? We have compel options and many different types of compel options. But right now we've set the conditions for 60 days to ensure that that material is downblended, destroyed or removed.

19:40Ben Meiselas:Meanwhile, the Kremlin, Putin, is putting out that Putin and Trump agree that Whitcoff and Jared Kushner will travel to Russia again in the near future. And then Putin says in his conversations with Trump, Trump expressed a willingness to exert influence on Kiev and Washington's European partners. Huh. How's that going to work, Donald? You're Mr. Junkyard Boy. You think you can exert influence on Zelensky right now and exert influence over Europe? Really? And that's what you're promising Putin you're going to do? Why don't you try to exert influence over Putin? Okay, why don't you support who America's allies are supposed to be?

20:24Ben Meiselas:The reality is, is that you're not going to be able to exert influence over everybody because you're not influential. The world views you as a sickly, deteriorating clown on your 80th birthday who's quite literally clinically ill. That's how the world views you. Everyone's just hoping that they could possibly ride this out for the next two years before the world becomes totally just obliterated as a result of you and your weakness. But you will always be a stain on the world and the name Trump will forever be associated with probably the worst human being, frankly, ever to one of the worst human beings ever to live.

21:03Ben Meiselas:I mean, Look at the harm that you're causing around the world right now. But J.D. Vance is out there doing his media circuit. And J.D. Vance is saying, do you all see how healthy he is? I've never seen a guy with more energy, with more stamina than Donald J. Trump. Here's what Vance just said. Let's play it. My sense of the president's health is that it's off the charts good. his focus, his energy, his constant grinding. I mean, the presidency is a crazy job. There you have it, folks.
