Donald Trump was having a meltdown at midnight as he fears for his life that Iran wants to kill him and kill his family in Tehran. Billboards have been going up across the city with signs like this. It says, hey terrorists, get ready to die. And it's photos of Melania, Ivanka, Donald Trump, Jared Kushner, Barron, and others. There are billboards like this with a MAGA hat and blood splattered everywhere. Hey, terrorists, get ready to die.

1:04Ben Meiselas:Then there's billboards like this of Donald Trump drowning in a sea of blood that appears to be choking him. You will drown in the sea of blood. Donald Trump's hands, meanwhile, all day yesterday, his body continuing to rot in front of our faces. So what was Donald Trump doing at midnight last night? He was posting videos of Trump coins. He was posting the word draconian. He was posting a random repost of someone named Uncle Barney 1966, who says the SAVE Act is very straightforward. before then, earlier, he was posting and then reposted that he basically wants to be applauded because there have been 18 people killed in Iran in four months, which is less than the Afghanistan war, which was 20 years and 2 ,000 dead.

1:59Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump wants applause for that. And of course, we know that Donald Trump is certainly under counting or under reporting the casualty amounts that have taken place in this catastrophic war in Iran. The Trump regime is saying, you know, a lot of these injuries are very minor. They go, minor concussions. There's no such thing as a minor concussion when your base, when your containerized barrack gets hit by a ballistic missile. Our service members have what's called a traumatic brain injury. That's not a minor concussion, but that's what the Trump regime is saying. how utterly disrespectful, how utterly just horrific that is to treat our troops that way.

2:45Ben Meiselas:And that's why we're actually seeing our service members in the region sending in photos, leaking photos of how precise Iran has been able to strike these barracks in these United States bases in the Arab nations. Iran's been able to strike radar systems, early warning detection systems, other defense systems, the U.S. running out of munitions. But Donald Trump is posting photos of himself at the FIFA World Cup with him and Gianni Infantino. And he wants Gianni Infantino to now lead the United Nations is one of the stories that came out. And so again, Trump making the FIFA World Cup about himself when nobody wanted him to be anywhere near him.

3:32Ben Meiselas:Did you see this photo of the Spanish goalkeeper basically ignoring Donald Trump on the stage and then giving a big hug to Prime Minister Carney? But Donald Trump posting images and messages while we're in this catastrophic war, while the American people are suffering. Why permanent daylight savings time may be better for your health. Or Donald Trump posting AI images, which purport to be Iranian women holding AI signs that say, stop killing us with AI tears. Perhaps what that's actually referring to is Donald Trump killing Iranian girls in Manab and killing Iranian civilians as well because the United States under the Trump regime has engaged in many war crimes there.

4:21Ben Meiselas:Also, as Donald Trump panics and fears for his life and as he fears that Iran's threatening to kill him, Baron Melania, Ivanka, and others, and as Iran's working with the Houthis in Yemen have been able to pretty much effectively shut down the Bab al-Mandab Strait, basically having a blockade at the Bab al-Mandab Strait as it relates to Saudi tankers. You know, Donald Trump promised MBS, the crown prince of Saudi Arabia, all of these things in exchange for MBS, given Donald Trump and Donald Trump's companies a lot of money. There was a quid pro quo, in my opinion, that obviously took place between MBS, the crown prince and Donald Trump.

5:08Ben Meiselas:And Donald Trump's security umbrella simply failed, utter failure, utter fraud in the Middle East. So what's Donald Trump doing right now for Saudi Arabia? Well, not sure you heard this yet, but Donald Trump has now formally and officially approved on his own, I guess, a landmark agreement with Saudi Arabia that will provide Saudi Arabia with a civilian nuclear program and potentially open the door for Saudi Arabia to engage in uranium enrichment, which many people and experts say Saudi Arabia will be able to fairly quickly if they want to turn into weapons grade. So I'm just trying to get this straight right now.

5:55Ben Meiselas:MBS gives Donald Trump a lot of money, gives Donald Trump a lot of business, gives Donald Trump a lot of personal pecuniary gang, Trump hotels, all of these things. Donald Trump's security umbrella fails in the Middle East. Iran is able to shut down the Bab El-Mandab Strait with the Houthis, that is, the Houthis in Yemen. Saudi Arabia is now reeling and struggling right now. So Donald Trump then says, we're going to give you, Saudi Arabia, the ability to do a nuclear deal with us and nuclear proliferation in Saudi Arabia. When mostly all of the hijackers in 9-11 came from Saudi Arabia. I mean, Do you remember, though, what Donald Trump said when they were doing the Live, which was the Saudi golf tournament at the Trump clubs?

6:48Ben Meiselas:Remember what Donald Trump used to say? Nobody's ever got to the bottom of 9-11. Nobody knows who actually did it. Donald Trump spreading 9-11 conspiracies to protect his Saudi friends consistently is what he did. And now they get the reward right after killing American journalists, after having a lot of the hijackers in 9-11. they get nuclear weapons because we have a weak, fragile psycho in the White House who cares about himself and throws us all under the bus. Here's what Donald Trump said, just so you know, at his golf course. Here, play this clip. You're so closely associated with the city of New York.

7:28You, of all people, understand the passion surrounding 9-11. What do you say to those family members who protested earlier this week and will be doing so again on Friday? Well, nobody's gotten to the bottom of 9-11, unfortunately, and they should have, as to the maniacs that did that horrible thing to our city, to our country, to the world. So nobody's really been there. But I can tell you that there are a lot of really great people that are out here today. And we're going to have a lot of fun and we're going to celebrate. And money's going to charity. A lot of money's going to charity. And you have really the best players in the world, many of the best players in the world.

8:02And soon you'll probably have all of them.

8:04Ben Meiselas:That's what Donald Trump had previously said. Also yesterday, Donald Trump said that a little thing slipped through into Jordan and a little thing happened to our troops. That's how Donald Trump describes the fact that America's PAC-3, the Patriot Interceptors or THADs, not working effectively. um donald trump blamed slipped through he goes it wouldn't have happened if uh if if the people who were working the systems knew what they were doing just think about from the uh jordanian leadership perspective the humiliation ritual trump puts them through as well and now saying that they don't know how to use the patriot not only does donald trump not give them the munitions needed, but then says they operated it incorrectly.

8:52Ben Meiselas:Play this clip. As far as Iran is concerned, I'll let Pete maybe say a couple of words, but we are doing very well. We are degrading them at levels that nobody thought was possible. They're being degraded really so seriously. They did slip something through in Jordan. And if we had other operators, you know, would have not happened, unfortunately. But we, because we have the best equipment in the world, you know, we've stopped almost everything. But when you let other people do your job, with the United States, we let other people do the job. And sometimes it doesn't work out so well. But we're going to be going and paying our respects at Dover.

9:34Pete, would you like to say just how we're doing here?

9:37Ben Meiselas:Now, Iran is pursuing a pretty clear-cut strategy right here as well. As the U.S. escalates, we talked about the strikes yesterday, the U.S. also hitting an area right near the Parchin nuclear site in Tehran. The U.S. has been hitting all these areas, Bandar Abbas. The U.S. has been hitting the whole kind of coast right by the Strait of Hormuz. But yesterday, U.S. struck hard in Tehran and then hit this place in eastern Tehran or east of Tehran where there is like a nuclear site, nuclear research center in Parchin. U.S. hit there. And Iran has a very obvious strategy right now. You don't have to be that much of a military expert to see what they're doing.

10:21Ben Meiselas:They are striking the various military bases of the Arab nations. They've yet to strike Israel because they believe that the U.S. has worked with Israel to protect it the most with the Iron Dome. but that these Arab nations all have early radar detection systems in order basically to protect Israel, which is behind, you have the Iron Dome of Israel, but then you have the Arab Dome, which Iran is exposing. Look at all of this apparatus, which was basically created to protect Israel. And so Iran is striking the early detection, the radar systems, and other technology that the US has in these Arab nations.

11:01Ben Meiselas:And Iran's been able to precisely strike this. And then, you know, at this point, if Iran wants to escalate more, it will be able to escalate, you know, I think fairly easily. So what do you have? Marco Rubio is at the ASEAN Conference, the Southern South Asian Conference. And Rubio is out there saying, you know, look, we're always down for diplomacy. It's Iran doesn't want to do the diplomacy, but we're always up for it in case anybody's ready, willing, and able, but America stands ready for diplomacy. Really? Donald Trump, the guy who talks about blowing up all of the bridges, destroying the civilization, and then when he's cornered like the rat that he is, then he says, oh, we want to do a deal.

11:47Ben Meiselas:They're doing a deal, everybody. I mean, by the way, one of the reasons that Rubio is saying this is that these Arab nations in the Middle East are absolutely livid and they're like, to the United States. You screwed us over. You're screwing over our economy. You don't know what the hell are you even doing right now? And that's why Donald Trump's like, okay, okay, Saudi Arabia, we'll give you nukes. We'll allow you to enrich. We'll do a nuclear deal with you. Who gave this guy the freaking power to give us? Saudi Arabia nukes? What the hell is even going back? That's where we are right now? I mean, but Qatar is pissed.

12:22Ben Meiselas:UAE is pissed. All of these countries And Iran is making a direct message, by the way, to these Arab nations saying, you know, your kingdoms, your princes, your kings, your leaders over here. You know, they are selling you out for Trump and for Netanyahu. That's the pitch that Iran's making to them. Here's what Rubio had to say for yourself. Let's play. I want to reiterate once again, the United States is always committed to diplomacy. We are open-minded and always willing to engage in negotiated settlements of differences. And that remains true in the case of Iran. Unfortunately, as of now, despite their direct outreaches, and Iran has been reaching out to the United States both directly and indirectly to engage in talks about settling the differences with regards to what's happening in that part of the world, unfortunately so far, even though we have reached agreements, they have not kept their commitments.

13:16And as the president stated earlier today, I guess, yes, today, Washington time, yesterday, our time here now, the problem we're having right now is that they're not serious about talks. If they're serious, we're serious. If they're not, then we will do what is necessary to protect that, our interest and also the interest of our allies.
