What does the CNN investigation reveal about U.S. military bases in Iran?

Jennifer Welch 0:04
There is a bombshell CNN investigation, and it is revealing how the war in Iran has resulted in unprecedented destruction of United States bases in the Middle East. Let's play the clip.
Unknown 0:18
CNN investigation found evidence of unprecedented destruction. We can reveal that strikes damaged at least 16 U.S. installations across eight countries. According to our analysis and sourcing, that's the majority of American military positions in the region, and some of them are virtually unusable now. A U.S. source familiar with the situation told us that they'd never seen anything like this at American bases, that these were rapid, targeted strikes using a technology.

Okay, this is really stunning, especially because we are just now hearing about all of this. And the fact that this president has gone into war at the request of Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel, and he has not had his joint chiefs at the table who advise not to do this, and our investment and all of these military bases come at great cost to the american public we have an out of control deficit we have an electorate that doesn't have health care we have an electorate that's drowning in debt yet we constantly save corporations and bail them out welfare for corporations and then all of this investment that we had to sacrifice for no you can't have this we can't afford it no you can't have that we can't afford it and all of the we support our troops and the u.s military is so badass
Jennifer Welch 1:41
And all of our bases are destroyed. And because Trump and Hexeth and little Marco and Whitcoff and Kushner are so wildly insecure, we can't even have a free press anymore that reports this to us. This is so disgraceful.

How has Trump's decision-making impacted military strategy in the Middle East?

Angie Sullivan 1:56
It is, and you also hear Pete Hexeth from his briefings going on and on against the media when they report and talk about death of American soldiers. He gets mad about that and says it's unflattering to the president. And I was reading an article that the government is trying to buy up satellite images that show the destruction of US bases because they don't want the American public to see it because this war is unpopular to start with. And you add the trillions of dollars that's going to take to rebuild this stuff. It's really a staggering defeat for the United States.
Jennifer Welch 2:36
Yeah. And this was the type of stuff that I remember Benghazi. And you remember all of the meltdowns over the Afghan withdrawal. and Fox News and MAGA people and their selective patriotism and their selective support of military provocation only when that news cycle behooves them, when they can, quote, own the libs. They do not care about these military bases abroad getting destroyed. If it hurts their dear leader, they're fine saying, oh, no, we don't want the First Amendment. No more free press about this. These people believe in nothing. And when you have nihilists running the country. This is what we're getting.

What are the implications of the U.S. military's response to Iran's strikes?

Jennifer Welch 3:21
All of this investment, and I just want to say it again, every MAGA person that every single one of you know that does all this, rah, rah, sis, boom, bah, I support the troops. No You don't. They are selective patriots when it behooves them. They support the troops when it behooves them, particularly when it's they can put some blame on a Democratic leader. And it's just the lying, the hypocrisy and the duplicity of the Republican Party. The Democrats just don't call it out enough. And this is our president this weekend as the war rages on. Play the clip.
Unknown 3:58
Come on, darling. The mother's screaming like crazy. Darling, I love you, darling. Oh, mom, I can't do it.
Jennifer Welch 4:06
all right here he's talking about uh a trans weightlifter and everybody in the crowd is just dying laughing and they think that's just hilarious to pick on uh trans people and to me this is just shows you how low maga is that they want to take the most marginalized members of the world and belittle and demean and use them as political props and use them as a joke. And that's really fun and cruel and neat to these people.

How does the media portrayal affect public perception of military actions?

Jennifer Welch 4:41
And you can make homosexuality illegal. MAGA can do that if they want to.
