Brett 0:00
We've got a lot to discuss on today's episode of the Midas Touch podcast. You have Donald Trump praising the Ayatollah after a $28 billion nuclear deal was announced between Iran and Russia. Also, when Donald Trump was not praising the Ayatollah, he was falling asleep during this bizarre Oval Office press conference. donald trump had disappeared for about eight days and since he has surfaced he has not been looking too good in the things that he's been saying even more deranged than before also we saw trump regime cabinet officials one by one falling under brutal cross-examination at senate and house of representative hearings treasury secretary scott besant secretary of state marco rubio agriculture secretary brooke rollins brutal cross exams will show you

What recent developments have occurred in Trump's foreign policy?

Brett 0:51
what went down there also a war powers resolution passed in the house of representatives to block donald trump's unlawful and catastrophic war in iran a procedural vote to proceed on the war powers resolution previously passed in the senate so the actual war powers resolution would need to pass in the senate trump could still veto it but it does send a very powerful message when you have both the house and the senate declaring trump's war in Iran to be unlawful, catastrophic. And we see each day the problems compounding as Donald Trump pretends that there is no war taking place. And of course, since the last time we've done a Midas Touch podcast, we've seen massive escalation with the United States striking areas in the Strait of Hormuz, Iran responding by striking an air base of the United States military in Kuwait and also the international airport terminal
Brett 1:46
In Kuwait, CENTCOM first claimed that there was actually no targets that were hit by Iran, right? A CENTCOM message said everything was great. Our interceptors and the interceptors of Kuwait were able to stop any of the incoming drones and ballistic missiles. We reported shortly thereafter, like, we think CENTCOM's lying. to which I know a lot of people responded, what do you mean, you think CENTCOM's lying? Like, why are you saying things that we're not hearing anywhere else? I'm like, I don't know, I'm watching video of what the airport looks like, and it looks like the airport was hit and it's on fire, and then the next day it was undeniable what happened. At least one person was killed in the airport in Indian National.
Brett 2:27
At least 63 people were injured. That number may be understating things as well. And of course, that follows a US soldier being killed in Northern Iraq, a UK soldier being killed in Northern Iraq. which CENTCOM claims was caused by military training exercises. Also, the US Fifth Naval Fleet in Bahrain was targeted by Iran as well, and American military assets there were significantly damaged. And so the bottom line is we need a War Powers Resolution to block this catastrophic and unlawful war. And with each day that passes, things are just getting worse, and we are now getting very, very dangerously close to hitting kind of rock bottom of the oil reserves. And I know I keep raising this red flag, but we're like a week and a half away from really running out of the kind of threshold number in our oil reserves, where all of a sudden you then see a dramatic spike.
Brett 3:22
So we'll cover that as well. There's also a screw worm outbreak killing cattle. There's a measles and Ebola outbreak that's killing people. And Donald Trump wants to focus on his reflecting, our reflecting pool that he thinks is his pool, that he's turning bright blue, which he keeps on saying is larger than skyscrapers. I don't even understand the comparison. What are you talking about? A horizontal pool is taller than vertical skyscrapers? Just the most ridiculous thing ever. Also, Donald Trump posted moments before we went live that he's definitely canceling all musical concerts in connection with America's 250th birthday, and that it's going to be a disgusting Trump rally. And speaking of disgusting and Trump, Ivanka and Jared Kushner are trying to take over an island in Albania, and the Albanian people are protesting that.
