what's up what's up everybody welcome to a brand new episode of part of the problem this is a big one um we got uh we had fights uh at the white house last night celebrating the 250th anniversary of america and on that same day i i got a nice virus going through my house the joys of having a young family um leave don't ruin denver just uh just leave for the week Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, I won't. Denver comes before anything. Before, poor God, family. But then, of course, Rob, we'll get into this. We have a deal. We have a deal. Well, we have a memo. Okay. We don't have the memo, but we've been told there is a memo. It looks like this, this one might be legit. And there's a ton to break down real quick before we get into that.
You did mention Rob Denver, Colorado coming up soon. This is like really up there with me and Rob's favorite stop of the year, quite possibly our favorite weekend that we did. last year together. So June 18th will be in Grenwood Village, Colorado, and then June 19th and 20th at the Comedy Works downtown in Denver. Really looking forward to that. Do you have some stuff before that, Rob, or after?
On Sunday, I'm back at the Denver Comedy Garage where I filmed my first comedy special. I'm going to be doing the FBI presentation. So even if you're coming out for the shows with me and Dave, I'm doing entirely different material. It's been going great. Unbelievable week in Minnesota. Thank you, people. And then I got Raleigh, North Carolina, Hampstead, and Myrtle Beach coming up next.
PortStore.com. All the dates.
Hell yeah, hell yeah. And of course, ComicDaveSmith.com to come see both of us out at Comedy Works.
I do just want to say, because I watched all that UFC last night and all of its shenanigans and glory and conflicts of interest and whatnot, so I enjoyed it. And the fact that Big Mike got a shout-out makes me think the nation is actually healed.
It wasn't. It did make it worth the whole thing. Look, I've got to say, they were great. Some really, really great fights. And Man, it is hard. No matter where you are, it's hard to not get a little bit. I don't know.
a little bit moved by the fact that like it was at the white house it was the 250th year of america and that the american was such an underdog and won the main event was pretty cool just gotta say pretty cool every time they went to like the old war footage or uh you were watching the band i just kind of felt like guys i love this country can we get rid of the socialism foreign wars and censorship and then we can go back to beefing over all the other small stuff

Chapter 2: How do the U.S. and Iran's narratives about the peace memo differ?
We're not getting that even as part of the deal on Friday. But there has been this this vague kind of notion that, yes, in the future, they might dilute that down and we would verify that they had diluted that down.
right okay but rob what now now again this is not clear this hasn't been confirmed by the iranians that they're going to do that but just like with the money rob what's the concession in there because it's a pretty big one we're away from zero enriched uranium We're not saying that anymore. We're not saying that they can't enrich uranium at all.
We're back to going, could you maybe dilute down the 60% enrichment that you have? Again, this is a major, Rob, you've been following this stuff. This is a major, major capitulation from the starting point. OK, the starting point was this is what the whole fucking war is about. This is what the 12 day war and this war was about.
The pretext for war was that we demand zero percent enrichment and they won't agree to that. We've walked away from that. Forget about the more maximalist demands of Donald Trump. Total surrender. Regime change. Oh, yeah, we've walked away from all of that, too.
I'm just saying, Rob, if you actually look at this through what's being before we even get into, you know, what the claims that Iran's making are in the deal that that the U.S. is denying, even though the U.S. is the one who won't show you the deal. We've already walked away from every single war demand, all in an effort for what? What's the one thing that we get out of this, Rob?
The one thing is the Strait of Hormuz is open. And that was the status quo before the war. We've fought the whole thing to get back to where we started. I don't know. What do you see in here, Rob? Am I getting something wrong?
I haven't seen a word about whether or not Iran's going to be able to enrich. So I think your read is likely right, that we're walking away from them not being allowed to enrich and just looking for them to downgrade their enriched uranium and get rid of the nuclear dust.
But I guess what you're missing here is that if you piss off Iran enough and you start a war with them and you bomb the shit out of the country and you take out their Ayatollah, then they can be trusted. But until you do that, you can't take them at their word. You just have to really piss them off and showcase the fact that they're the enemy.
And once you do that, then when they tell you that they're not going to go ahead and make nuclear bombs, then you can believe them. But prior to the warfare, you can't believe them.

Chapter 3: What are J.D. Vance's views on the recent deal?
Oh, OK. Let's let's go to that and then we'll get to the other element of the deal. Let's go to. Yeah.
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. The document says Iran will never have a nuclear weapon, won't seek one, won't buy one, won't have one. And in 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 than it's ever been in its 47 years. And that's why they're at the table. The huge difference is we did this from a position of strength. President Trump led with military might. That military might will stay as long as necessary.
You know, if the blockade comes off, then you pull back and you allow shipping to flow, just like Iran needs to allow shipping to go through the straits. But we can snap that blockade back at any point and they can't do anything about it. And Iran knows that. And that's why we have the leverage in these talks. And we hope they'll go well. Okay.
Rob. You know, he really is a big, dumb lunghead. I mean, he's, dude, I've met Pete Hegseth. I had beers with Pete Hegseth years ago. And I remember having beers with him. It was after a show at Fox News after the Kennedy show. We went over to the Irish pub next door, a group of us, and we were having beers. And I remember we were all talking.
I remember thinking to myself, this guy's a big, dumb lunghead.
and now he's the secretary of defense and he's still a big like he really is just it's just such an embarrassment for the country this guy is who represents your your war department um so this is what he's got you can't even point to what's better you just go oh obama begged the iranians not to get nukes we bombed the iranians not to get nukes Like, ooh, yours had explosions.

Chapter 4: How are the Israel-firsters reacting to the peace deal?

All right, let's get back into the show. Okay, the point that we should have made before, and you had a good lead into it there, is that the other thing that all sides are agreeing is in this memorandum of understanding.
By the way, there is something, you know, isn't it interesting, Rob, that the term memo is so common, commonly used, but memorandum, I've said it more over the last two weeks than I've ever said in my entire life. Like, you know what I mean? Like, we even have a slow... like a saying that it's like, Oh, I didn't get the memo. You know, like, that's like a joke. You could make it a bar.
Oh, we're having, we're doing tequila. I didn't get the memo, you know, that you would never just be like, I haven't received the memorandum. You get kicked out of that bar talking like that. All right. Anyway, um, So the other major thing that's in there, conceded by all sides, is that Lebanon's part of the ceasefire and Israel cannot continue attacking Lebanon.
Of course, this creates once again the entire situation we've been watching. By the way, Rob, they're bombing them right now.
the israelis i read one report that there were explosions heard in lebanon i guess i haven't seen that confirmed yet so we'll hold off on on confirming that but israel has said they've made a bunch of public statements already from all types of different uh just saw ben kavir made one where he's like yeah we are not uh we did not sign on to this so we're not part of this which is true rob right like they're not a part of the deal so they but cool so israel's breaking up with us we don't have to break up with them perfect right

Chapter 5: What are the implications of the deal for U.S.-Iran relations?
We get all the 60% enriched uranium. No. Medium and short range missiles. No. Funding of terror proxy groups. No. One thing we got. Opening the Strait of Hormuz. Now, your assignment, Rob, is to spin that into a win in here. I mean, I don't know, ma'am. Tell me what I'm wrong.
This is this is without us getting into the argument of whether or not he's given him 12 billion up front without even that. So now I got to say. In terms of the politics of this. It's an interesting moment. As we've said before, Rob, this has been a dynamic of this whole thing. You have these two groups. There are the people who just support Donald Trump, and then there's the Israel lobby.
And so, of course, right now, it's almost in a way, this is, if you look at what's left in MAGA, that's essentially it. Those are the two groups. All of us have left. So, you know, the Trump coalition no longer consists of Tucker Carlson and Joe Rogan and Theo Vaughn. You know, like that's gone.
But what's left now are the the Mike Cernovich's, the Jack Posabiak's, the Trump supporters and the Israel lobby. And so the Trump supporters are thrilled with this because, first of all, whether they want to admit it to themselves or not, they know that Donald Trump is bleeding over this war, right? They're aware.
They see that they're getting ratioed every day when they try to stand up for him on social media or whatever. And then they also see what the Israel lobby is doing here and how they're but they have no option to turn on Trump. So they have to just celebrate everything he does. So this is the greatest war ever. This is total victory. That's what they're saying.
Now, again, as I've mentioned before, throughout this war, this is a tough thing for me because I'm so disgusted by the way these people are behaving. And yet they're probably the most important people right now. I hate to say it. I hate to admit it. But like I watch I watch Mike Cernovich, somebody who I've liked and respected for years.
I watch him posting on Twitter that this was a huge victory for Donald Trump. And I'm like, I don't want to lose respect for you like this, dude. Like, how can I just watch you just lying to your own people?

Chapter 6: What concessions are being discussed in the negotiations?
Like, it's just so my God, like. What are you like? How much did he pay you for the night? Like, I'm sorry, this is just like prostitute behavior. It's one of the greatest strategic blunders in American history. Destroyed his presidency over just nothing. It's got, just cost hundreds of billions of dollars to the global economy. Just horrible. Every level of it, just horrible. But okay.
You got to have some people saying that, man. Trump's got to hear at least a few people saying that. But now, okay, the dynamic is now the Israel lobby is completely turning on him and calling him out. Calling him out for what a failure this is. I mean, it's kind of unbelievable, dude, watching.
I know you alluded to this earlier, Rob, but watching Mark Levin and Ben Shapiro and these types go from just all of a sudden, they're the guys who were always for Donald Trump. And they're attacking anyone else who doesn't trust the plan or who doesn't trust Donald Trump. And you're watching them immediately pivot back.
And so now there's this weird battle between the two groups that have just been driving me crazy the most. And I'm not exactly sure how to play it. I don't know what the writer is. I almost just want to retweet all of them. You know? Like, I saw... I'm not... I didn't post on Twitter for the last couple days, but I saw... Like I saw Mike Cernovich tweet, you know, huge victory for Donald Trump.
And I almost just want to retweet it. Yeah, man, totally. Get this deal signed because thank God. Let's sign it. Whatever the deal is. Yes. Let's sign it. Honestly, I don't even care. Are you giving them 12 billion or 24 billion? Whatever. Give them what you got to give them. Let's get this nightmare over with. It's the best thing we could do. And then you see people like Mark Levin.
Have you seen him? He's posting and he's like, I actually saw Mark Levin actually had some tweets that were going viral. It's the first time I've ever seen it where he's going, hey, how come we can't see the memorandum? If it's so great, why don't we get to see it? And you're like, yeah, good point, Mark Levin. Yeah, you know, like what can I say here?
Do I even want to pick a fight with Mark Levin right now? You're like, yeah, dude, fair, absolutely fair point. We should get to see that thing. But so just watch, man. I mean, look, dude, there's two things, two predictions that I made. that have aged very well. One of them, Rob, was that they're going to go from saying Tucker Carlson and the lesson here is that Tucker Carlson doesn't matter.
And that's why it doesn't matter. Donald Trump's not destroying his whole coalition. And then they're going to pivot to blaming the midterms on Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens and all them. They're already doing that. Levin went on a whole rant about that the other day. And then my other prediction is an obvious one was that
all the israel firsters will turn on donald trump if he doesn't get regime change here that's all this was ever about for them and and look as we've broken down for many many years here and i'm not going to go through the whole thing again but you can find me breaking this all down on the internet all over the place but this was always about israel taking lebanon that's the whole beef with iran

Chapter 7: How does the episode analyze the potential outcomes of the deal?
No? Not that good? How about he's making nukes and he's in with Al-Qaeda? Oh, you're interested now, right? That's all this is. But anyway, I say this. I make this point because... If you understand that, you recognize, are they going to be okay with this deal now? Hey, look, Rob, you know, look, we got them to promise that they're not going to make nuclear weapons.
Why is it that every time Iran makes a deal promising to not get nuclear weapons, every member of the Israel lobby hates that deal and tries to destroy it with everything they have? Why would that be? if their big concern was a nuclear Iran.
Okay, well, once you understand that that's not the concern and it's all about Lebanon, then you go, oh, so the deal is that they get, not only do they get to keep being friends with Hezbollah, but Hezbollah is protected by order of this deal. Now you're gonna start to understand why the Israel lobby is going to fucking flip over this and do everything they can to destroy it.
So to your point, Robb,
Are you saying that Donald Trump is making a deal that protects known terrorists in the United States government?
No, I'm not. I would never make a claim like that, Rob. But I mean, if you've got evidence. All right, guys, let's take a moment and thank our sponsor for today's show, which is Prolon by El Nutra.

Chapter 8: What predictions are made about the future of U.S. foreign policy?
Okay. Let me just say another scenario, right?
let's say there was a hundred year war between us and mexico and um we had just killed so many people on both sides just always at war forever and we couldn't afford to fight the war ever by ourselves so like our friends in europe they they were paying for the war because we were like we really need this help we're in this hundred year war with with uh with mexico
And so many people had died on both sides. I mean, we've killed probably about 20 times as many of their people as they've killed of us, but we've been going back and forth forever and ever and ever. And then Europe, the European countries who were financing us were like, look, this is really unpopular here. We don't want to do this anymore. We've got a peace deal worked out.
And then they sent over a missile and nobody got hurt or anything like that. And they went, please don't respond to this one because we're trying to get this peace deal done. See, that would be really fucking reasonable. But Ben Shapiro doesn't give you that scenario. So instead he goes, but what if Mexico just launched a drone?
As if, because I'm just saying like, and look, it's not a hundred year war exactly or whatever, but you know, whatever. I'm just saying like, maybe those scenarios aren't exactly the same. But if you object to that, then you object to scenarios that aren't exactly the same being used as examples, right? But let me tell you a scenario that definitely ain't the same.
It's not the US and Mexico, two sovereign states that live next to each other that haven't fought a war in 175 years. You know what I mean? That are like, just are cool with each other. And then one of them just launches an attack
against the other one, that's a different scenario than being in the middle of a war that someone else foots the bill for, and then they ask you to not respond to an attack where nobody was hurt. Anyway, I don't know, Rob, what can you even say about that? You know the thing they always say about us? If you ever bring up any of Israel's crimes, they go, moral equivalency.
You're making a false equivalency. But what a false equivalency between this request by Donald Trump in the middle of a war he's conducting on your behalf to Mexico just attacking us. Fucking fraud.
Yeah. If Israel wants to defend itself, then leave us out of it. And if Israel is under the belief that Iran is a bigger enemy and we're in the middle of putting together a ceasefire with the bigger threat and we're telling you, hey, guys, don't mess this up. then yeah, you got to follow our lead.
