We're going to continue to do exactly what we're doing.

So you can have the ceasefire, but we control the Strait of Hormuz.

And we're not going to agree to anything that deviates out of the negotiating framework.

And that's where we are at this present moment.

and now you have gulf states and european countries saying they believe the soonest there can ever be a resolution we're talking about six months from now europe's running out of jet fuel maybe two three weeks longer of jet fuel uh there are going to be food shortages very soon

The Strait of Hormuz, basically no different right now than what was going on during the war.

The bombs aren't dropping right now and the missiles aren't flying, but the Strait of Hormuz is effectively being controlled by Iran.

Some tankers are still getting out and are passing the blockade.

We're not getting good information from our CENTCOM about what's happening.

know they're spiking the football like they've achieved some great result the wall street journal did an article the other day yesterday that the people now in charge at every level of the iranian military the national security structure at the ayatollah level from mojaba all the way to the irgc to the national security are far more deeply entrenched

less compromising people than all the people who the Trump regime killed.

You still have the Islamic Republic in control.

And yet the Trump regime spikes the football as though this has some amazing accomplishment and that Donald Trump's social media post is what did it.

Like, I just wanted to break down that full dynamic about what- Yeah, but Ben, you're forgetting, totally new regime, you know?

okay so ever all the people you just mentioned may still be in power they may be the more hard-line people uh who took over these positions positions were killed but instead of kamene's uh him being alive now his more hard-line son is uh in power i think we have to acknowledge uh the total totally new regime and these people are way better you know this is just i'm being sarcastic obviously i know occasionally i get brett like why are you saying that being sarcastic

It's so classic Trump though, isn't it?

Because he starts these things, he sparks chaos and it's something that he's done really his entire life.

And then like, you could kind of tell he kind of gets bored with it or he realizes that it's not exactly going well and he wants to bail on it in the middle, but he's already so far in and he's already caused so much chaos that you can't just stop what you're doing in the middle of it.

And then the whole world is left to pick up his mess.

We've seen it with the tariffs.
