Marketing is hard. But I'll tell you a little secret. It doesn't have to be. Let me point something out. You're listening to a podcast right now, and it's great. You love the host.

Gen Z, y'all getting drafted. Okay, maybe not, but there's this new report that they've increased the age limit for enlistments to 42, and they don't care if you've been convicted of marijuana or light drug possession. So the 42-year-old thing is obvious. They want older people to be able to join the military. I wonder why. They're also giving out steak and lobster to our troops. And the best part is the marijuana thing, because I'm like, okay, now they're basically saying we need to open up the pool a little bit wider. That one's targeting Gen Z. But here's the interesting thing. The real concern over the draft... immigrants are worried. Not a joke. This is the report. Young people are kind of like, I'm undraftable because they're just like hikikomori.

If you know what that means, it means they sit at home and play video games all day and they don't go outside. But immigrants are like, uh-oh. And there's a lot of people saying, you know, it would be funny if Biden brought in 20 million illegal immigrants from Honduras, not for the economy, but to just unload them all in Iran. And then as John Bolton would say, this time next year, we'll be eating plantanos and baliera in Tehran. which he never said, but would be absolutely hilarious if Iran just became like new Honduras. But the big news, of course, is, my friends, if you've been following this show, you are not surprised to learn that we are deploying the 82nd Airborne Division, 3,000 more troops to the Middle East.

The speculation being this will be for the occupation of Karg Island, the key oil distribution hub for Iran. And we've been talking about this. We had heard rumors in the area about, you know, people who know other people who see them packing up and getting ready to go. Rumors of deployment. And it appears that it's actually going to happen. As many are saying, this is increasing the probability that we will see boots on the ground in Iran. That being said, Donald Trump has said he's in peace negotiations with Iran.

What are the implications of the U.S. military draft age increase?

And they gave him a truly, truly wonderful gift related to oil and natural gas. But he's not going to tell you what it is. And that's that's good. But I got to be honest, all the while we're being told that things are winding down. But all of the military action we see shows a dramatic escalation. Now, there's another big conspiracy theory. I had talked about this 2019. An oil refinery exploded at 4 a.m. in PA. Several hours later, Donald Trump announced that he was canceling strikes on Iran. At the time, I speculated, could this have been a cyber attack? And Donald Trump pulled back on the attack to avoid an escalation of war between Iran and the United States. I don't know. Interestingly, yesterday, only a few hours after Donald Trump announced postponing the attack in Iran, an oil refinery exploded.
Unknown 3:23
Now, that's just some wacky speculation, right? Except a Saudi X account posted only a few hours before the explosion. that just across the street there would be an oil refinery explosion and then deleted it. But it's too late. The Internet is forever. It was captured and reposted, suggesting there was foreknowledge of this explosion at the plant, which makes one wonder, was this a cyber attack? We're going to talk about that and a whole lot more. Joe Kent says he's willing to testify in the trial of Charlie Kirk, which is being called betrayal.
