Tucker Carlson continues to go nuts on Trump, who responds by calling Tucker kooky, Tucker Carlson. Plus, we get to the latest from the left and their bizarre desire to crap on the military parade.

A lot of updates coming from the United States. What is the United States going to do? But over the course of the last 24 hours, Israel told the Iranians they were going to take their state media offline. They then proceeded to do so in quite colorful fashion. The clip that was making the rounds looked like

this. As you have seen, the sound you heard, the stormy atmosphere of the studio... God is great!
God is great!

How is President Trump demanding Iran’s unconditional surrender?

Ben Shapiro 1:55
In any case, what Israel is doing right now, they have complete air superiority over the entire country of Iran. Not just that. Over the course of the last 24 hours, apparently they also took down via a hacktivist group, a group called Predatory Sparrow, they took down Bank Sepah, which is one of Iran's oldest financial institutions with ties to the IRGC as well as the army. According to iraninternational.com, which is sort of a dissident website that operates, I believe, from outside Iran, several Bank Sepah branches were closed on Tuesdays. Customers told Iran International they were unable to access their accounts.

Why is Tucker Carlson criticizing Trump’s stance on Iran?

Ben Shapiro 2:28
They have 1,800 branches in Iran and others in Britain, France, Germany, and Italy. The United States imposed sanctions on Bank Sepah in 2019. President Trump did that after it withdrew from Iran's 2015 nuclear deal. So the banking system collapsing in Iran, the propaganda system collapsing in Iran, and the military system collapsing in Iran as well. According to Israel Hayom, Israeli Air Force jets struck a manned command center at the heart of Tehran, killing Ali Shadmani. That is Iran's chief of war staff. He was the most senior operational military commander in the country and the closest advisor to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. He had served as the chief of war staff and commander of the Emergency Command Center of Iran's armed forces, overseeing both the IRGC and the regular Iranian army.

Now, he had a very short-lived tenure. He had a really terrible temp job. He actually was appointed to command Iran's armed forces about five days ago because his predecessor, Alam Ali Rashid, was eliminated on day one. So congratulations for the promotion and also condolences for his death. And these are all people working for one of the most evil regimes on the planet, a regime that not only spreads terror throughout the region, is responsible for the murder of hundreds, if not thousands, of American troops across the region, but also happens to repress its own people to an extraordinary degree. So Israel took out a top general. They took the banks offline. They took down the Iranian media. They also were blowing up from the air the F-14 Tomcats that Iran had left over from the pre-revolutionary period.
