Good morning to your friends. Hope you are doing well. Welcome on into a hum day Wednesday, April 15th of 2026. Breezy, Les, humid, high of 86 today and shaping up to be a really good day. You know who you don't want to be today? Who's that? Swallwell. Oh my goodness. Lord have mercy. You know, I'm just going to say that it's not funny. These allegations are becoming more and more horrifying. And do you know what really pisses me off about the whole Swallwell thing? Is it the Democrats knew all along that this was an issue? They have known for years how much of a scuzz this guy was. I mean, people apparently, and I was listening to Fox News on my way in and apparently, you know, you got all these people in California Democrats who knew all about these allegations. They did nothing. It's Joe Biden all over again. I mean, it's the same thing. And these Democrats have the audacity to start now coming at us with the 25th Amendment. Oh yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. I mean, these people, the hypocrisy is, I mean, I wish I could say that it's stunning, but it's not. But man, when you when you start just putting all of these stories together and put them into the context of today's headlines, it's like really so the Democrats, they are pearl clutching over Donald Trump posting an AI generated photograph, not a photograph, but a picture of him as Jesus. And now they're saying, oh my gosh, we got to implement the 25th Amendment. These same people stood by during, of course, the insanity of Joe Biden for four years. And they stood by while Eric Swalwell was raping women. Well, they also used Obama in Jesus iconography all over the media. Yeah. Oh yeah. Absolutely. That is a great point, Sam. Halo. What was that on the cover of Time Magazine? The Halo picture? Oh yeah. He's looking. Oh, it's just nauseating. Absolutely nauseating. And you know, can I just say this? And I this this may raise the ire of some people. But would you say, and I might be over my skis on this, but would you say that Donald Trump posting that AI generated picture of him as Jesus? Would you say that tracks? Yep. Joe. What do you mean it tracks? That is something very Trumpian. That is something Donald Trump would do. Okay. So the same thing with the halo rendering of him as master chief. So in other words, and I said that on the first day, but I felt badly about that because it feels blasphemous. Okay. And that's fine, Joan. And you're right. But it's a very Trumpian thing to do. That is very Donald Trump thing to do. So you've got the left screaming about how the 25th Amendment. Oh my gosh, look how he's acting. Really? Yeah. It pretty much tracks. That's what Donald Trump does. And I mean, there's a lot of things that I love about Donald Trump and there's some unforced errors that he does as well. And you take the good, you take the bad, you take them all, then there you have the facts of life. Did you see Madison Cawthorne's tweet? No. There are more. Isn't that interesting that he came up the first day? I talked about this the first day, Madison Cawthorne, where it's like somewhere Madison Cawthorne is feeling very vindicated right now. I actually mentioned it to Andy Ogles as a matter of fact when he was here too. He's, by the way, Madison Cawthorne now getting married, I guess. Good for him, whatever. So, yeah, I mean, of course there's more. I mean, Tim Burchett, same thing. We talked about Tim Burchett, how he has been talking about some of these members of Congress who clearly are compromised. I think it's like Eric Swalwell. And can I just tell you, I don't even, I was planning on covering this today. I guess, Sam, you're telling me there's, and Joan, there's another victim that has now come out and said that he raped her. Oh yeah. Is it the same one we talked about yesterday? No, this is a new one. She came out yesterday. She's a former model or a current model. And she said that he spiked her drink. They were supposed to be going to their hotel room, his hotel room to pick up paperwork before they went to a political event. Oh, it's that whole picking up paperwork thing. Yeah, I'm air quoting for people not watching on Super Talk TV. She said she had. Well, and the other controversy is Ruben Gallego is being accused of being the man in the video where he's pulling the woman on the bed in the hotel room. Wouldn't surprise me. He says it's not him. Because he denies it. But they're very close friends and he keeps saying, oh, we were all fooled by his second life. Oh, BS. Yeah. Gallego is a senator or a congressman? Arizona senator. Arizona senator. You want to hear what he had to say? Yeah, go ahead, Joan. You hear this and then when you're close to somebody and you know, you know his wife, you see this, you see that relationship, you know that like it maybe just isn't true. Yeah. And here you go. Here's another one. You hear this and then when you're close. Oh, that's the same one. Here you go. I did ask him and he lied to me. He lied to me. Yeah, sure. This man led a double life. This man led a double life. He lied to us. He lied to his family, like to his constituents. Yeah, but he was his best friend. But I mean, Swalwell said that Gallego was his best friend in the whole world. I think is what the quote was. Yeah. So if all the press knew about it, how did his very best best friend in the whole world not know it? My own personal feeling on this is guys talk and and and Gallego more than likely knew about these things. I obviously can prove it, but if it was common knowledge in the Republican Party, or I should say the Democrat Party, we'll probably the Republican Party too. Who knows? The Democrat Party, especially in the state of California, then Gallego most certainly knew as well. I'm not saying that he participated. I don't know if he did or not, but I don't buy for a second that he didn't know. It was on the biography page of Swalwell's 2026 California gubernatorial campaign website that he was his best friend in the whole world. Gallego has his own skeletons in the closet. He left his wife when she was nine months pregnant. He's no he's no old country bumpkin. He left his wife when she was nine months pregnant. Ruben Gallego. I got a longer sound bite real quick. I've got a longer sound bite from Gallego. Why you look that up. This is Ruben Gallego on his relationship with Eric Swalwell. I don't know what's going on with his family, but it's definitely a horrible situation for family. I don't know if it's a cover to attack me right now because they couldn't take back 2024 because they ran a horrible race, but now this is what they want to do. They just want to hurt me as much as possible. Presidents are they who's they Republicans. Okay, but this is the Democrats that are doing this. I mean, Republicans agree, but I mean, everybody knows that this is the Democrats who are getting Swalwell out of the way in the California governor's race so that they don't end up with a Republican governor because they have that jungle primary, right? So this is not, you know, memo to Ruben Gallego. This is not the he can frame it as such. Oh, this is political persecution. This is the Republicans. No Ruben Gallego. This is the Democrats and you know that now the Democrats can sit here and they can they can say, oh, no, it's the Republicans. It's the Republicans. Oh, we didn't know anything about this. Well BS and I have a feeling that this is going to come out more and more. By the way, I do have video, but we're going to find out more and more about who knew what when when it comes to Eric Swalwell. I'll say that. I don't care. We're going to wait. And that's not even a thing right now. The most important thing is I want to protect my family. I want to protect my family's reputation. And this is why we're talking about right now. Did he say that he wants to protect his family's reputation? How do you do that when you apparently, according to Joan, left your wife when she was nine months pregnant? Gallego married Sydney Barron in 2021. They have two children together. He has another child from his previous marriage to Kate Gallego, the mayor of Phoenix. So Ruben and Kate tied the knot in 2010, separated in 2017. She was blocked. Hey football fans, still a legend. Jerome Bennett is here. When I think about football and Pittsburgh, I think about tradition, hard work in moments that last forever. It's a place where the love of the game brings people together. For the first time ever, the NFL draft comes to the steel city. We there for three days of football and the moment draft dreams are realized. The 2026 NFL draft presented by Bud Light April 23rd to the 25th. Register for free entry at NFL.com slash draft access. Hi, I'm Joe Salci. Hi, host of the stacking bench of its podcast. You know what? A lot of us get Texas wrong. Filing your taxes is basically data entry. There's been this trend of people going, oh, it's so cool. I'll file my taxes in August. It's so awesome. Don't worry. I have an extension. It'll be fine. I like totally do it later. Stop. Do your frigging taxes now. That was a really good fashion voice. Did you like it? You do that more frequently, please? Yes, every show for now. Stacking Vegamins, follow and listen on your favorite platform. I'm excited. He said that they were irretrievably broken. She didn't know that. Irretrievably? Irretrievably broken. Okay. She didn't know that. She didn't know that they were broken. She didn't know we were broken. Yeah. Okay. I'm trying to find... Here's more from Gallego. We're not on trips, on vacations, officially, unofficially. You've gone out, presumably, with the congressmen. You've never even witnessed him. I don't know. There was a picture. Apparently, they were roommates together in the house of representatives. There is a picture of Gallego and Swalwell. I don't know if you've seen this. You're on Camels shirtless. It's like we just stop it. Oh, my God. Put your damn shirts back on. Paging in an affair? No. What about? No. How do you explain some of the photos online? I know you addressed one, but there is another one that shows both of you without shirts. I mean, how do you address some of those compromising photos? We were on a beach. I think you were on the desert. You're on Camels, dude. You're on Camels. I don't... What beach has Camels? I don't know. A beach. He just goes, oh, saying, a beach. I think he's in full blown panic in this interview. He's got, well, he is in full blown panic. That is certainly true. Camels. It was a beach and a camel. Now we've got to find out what beach in the Middle East has Camels. There you go. Ruben Gallego. So it was confirmed that he ran off from her when she was nine months pregnant. Washington free beak and had to sue for the information about this. But Kerry Lake, remember when she was running for governor of Arizona? No, governor of Arizona. Yes. Yes. She's former newscaster. Yes. I hope everybody who says they're going to vote for him will hold off until we get the details about why he ran off from his wife when she was nine months pregnant. We don't know if it was spousal abuse. Man, that is messed up. Yeah. Nine months pregnant. All right. Well, the parties acknowledged and agree that there was no domestic violence during the marriage or that significant domestic violence did not occur. I think he became friends with Eric's while at the time and romping around on your wife when she's nine months pregnant. Probably. I'm dealing in rumor here. I'm just enjoying Joan utilizing the term romping around. Romping. Romping around. It's like scuzzy. You know what? The folks on YouTube think it's funny that you use the word scuzzy. Did I use the term scuzzy? Yeah. You call them a scuzz. Do you know what? Apparently with Eric Swalwell, any room that he was in would be romper room. Yeah. How's that for some humor at 5.17 in the morning? I think that's why you go leave his wife, Joan. 2016 or 2017. They became friends in 2014 when they were both elected to Congress. There you go. There was a guy named, and I've told this story once before, Fort Wayne, Indiana, Mark Souter. That's where I lived, Fort Wayne, many years ago. You can look that up, Sam Mark Souter. He was a Republican congressman, and he as well had to resign in disgrace when I was in Fort Wayne because of an affair, right? And he talked about how when people go to Washington, D.C. and this will surprise no one, certainly not Joan who worked in Washington, D.C. And so he went down because of an affair. And he said that when people go to Washington, D.C., something happens between the lobbyists and the power and being essentially away from the family. That whole thing, ultimately, it leads people astray. And I'm not going to say exclusively men because obviously women do bad stuff too. But, you know, guys go there and they do these things. And the temptation is all around you. And I think, I forget, this feels very familiar. I must have talked about this or interviewed somebody, whatever. I think I've said this in the last couple of days, but they go to Washington, D.C. They're without their families and they just, they do these things. And I mean, not all men do this, obviously, clearly. But I mean, this is something that we see time and time again. What year was that that Mark Souter had to resign? May 18th of 2010, he would resign from Congress effective Friday, May 21st, admitting to an affair with Tracy Meadows Jackson. We interviewed him on WoWo. I mean, it was all the time. Oh, really? Because he was our congressman, right? Was this the guy that went off on a vacation or something? No, different guy. Different guy. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, Souter, I think he's dead now. But he, you know, good guy. He was led astray and he led himself, you know, is very, is classic, you know, guys, you know, Christian and he spoke a lot about God and Christianity, morality and all that kind of stuff. And then he gets caught having an affair and we're on the morning show at that time, just like, oh God, you know, okay, now, hey, congressman, you want to come on for an interview? No. So anyway, that was a, that was a dark day. Anyway, so these things, you know, they just, I'm not saying they happen. They do happen. I think there's two different parts of this story as more and more women are coming forward about Eric Swalwell. Number one, obviously, is what he did. Number two, the big cover-up. Gallego over here trying to cover up his own possible culpability in all of this. Who knew what when within the Democrat party? And I would also ask, okay, you know what, what about Republicans? Did Republicans know this was going on? Because, I mean, listen, I'm, I'm looking side-eyed Republicans all the time. And so my question would be, did any Republicans know about this? And was everybody just kind of lying in wait until they could take down this useful idiot? Because let's be honest, what, what Swalwell as a useful idiot, Joan, what was he best known for? Trying to take down Donald Trump, right? Yeah, because he was on what, judiciary? Yeah. So I think he was on a couple of different committees, but, but beyond judiciary, remember that he was always on the shows. He was very good at going after Donald Trump, doing whatever he could to try to take down Donald Trump, sell Russian collusion, sell all of the, you know, race-baiting and all that other crap. He was very good at that. Now, why on God's green earth did Eric Swalwell, because he knew that the receipts were out there, Joan. He knew it. Why would he decide then to run for higher office? The arrogance of Eric Swalwell and people of his ilk. It's stunning to me that they just decide, okay, you know what? So what that I've been sending my junk to all of these different women and that there's all of these accusations that are out there. And I've, I've left a trail of indecency, you know, behind me over the past, I don't know, however many years, I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to run for higher office. I mean, here's the other thing. Had he not run for the governorship in California, he would still be doing it and the Democrats would still allow it to happen. So there's a lot of different angles to this particular story. And I know that people are like, oh, it's stories over. This story has not even begun to end. You got more people that are coming out. You got the cover up. Now you're going to have more names dropping. I'd be willing to bet that there's going to be more names dropping. Knives are out for Gallego over here. We had the guy out of Texas. I forget his name now. Gonzalez. Gonzalez, Tony Gonzalez. He was a Tony Gonzalez. Yep. Okay. So he as well has decided to resign. And I think that there's going to be more. I must regale you with my favorite swal well clip on hardball. Okay, go ahead. President used taxpayer dollars to ask the Ukrainians to help him cheat an election. And the complaint that I've heard from just farts and keeps going. Well, you know why that? Do you know why that happened? Because he's full of no. Well, yes, that, but also because, you know, he knew that this whole thing was coming and he was crapping Twinkies. Oh, yeah. Crapping Twinkies. You know, it's funny. I keep waiting for other other hosts to like steal that. Nobody ever does. I wonder why. Anyway, it is 523. Jones got the news that the t-shirt. Exactly right. I need to put it on a t-shirt and a hashtag. All right. Welcome to the program. EJ and Tony. EJ, always great to have you on. Of course, folks know lead economist over at the Heritage Foundation. You've been seeing on Fox News. I'm assuming Fox Business as well. EJ, so many questions. Number one, the blockade of the blockade. Were you surprised that President Trump took this tact after negotiations fell through to basically block the Iranians from taking over the Strait of Hormuz? Well, honestly, Dan, I think I've been surprised at pretty much every step of this entire thing. So maybe I should just start expecting the unexpected, right? Yes. You know, look, part of the problem here is the fact that the only crew that was essentially getting through previously, the getting through the Strait was Iranian crew. Obviously, they're not going to stop their own ships from getting through. So aside from the few other ships that on which they were charging a toll for safe passage, it was primarily Iranian crewed and they were shipping more than before the war. Not only that, but they were obviously doing so at much higher prices. So this was clearly a move aimed at hurting the Iranians financially. But unfortunately, it's also hurting the rest of the world, including us. It is said that Iran is losing something like 435, 450 million dollars every day due to this blockade. Now, that's huge. Obviously, this will impact Iran financially. And talk about number one, do those numbers jive with you? And number two, I think President Trump is looking at this as, you know, this is a great way, even if the rest of the world is going to suffer. And everybody knows that the rest of the world also, I would believe, understands that this could be the quickest way to wrap up this war and try to get Iran in a place where they'll actually negotiate. So in regards to your first question, sure, I think those numbers are perfectly reasonable. I don't see any reason, right? I guess I should say I don't have any evidence to say why those numbers are outside a reasonable range in terms of how much damage it's doing to the Iranians. But again, we got to grapple with the fact that it's hurting us and it's hurting the rest of the world, certainly far more because of these higher oil prices. And we see all of these super tankers that are now coming to the Gulf to fill up with American crude. The problem is that we just don't have enough to meet that demand. We don't have any excess capacity because for four years, Biden did everything he could to strangle America's oil and natural gas industries. Even if we literally exported all of our oil and we never even kept literally any for ourselves, which obviously is impossible, right? But even if we did that, it would only account, it would only be about half of all the crude that was previously flowing through the Strait of Hormuz. So again, it's not a demand that we have any kind of excess capacity with which we could actually meet, unfortunately. So it's just unclear in terms of who is going to cry uncle first and which side this is really going to do more damage to in the long run. Factor in the oil from Venezuela. How much of an impact would that have on our own ability to help supply the rest of the world with oil? So the amount of oil we're getting from Venezuela is relatively small and a lot of that just has to do with the fact that Venezuela in production was down so much by the time we essentially took over, by the time we went in, you know, kidnapped Maduro and elevated, I guess it was the vice president to become president down there. Because the communists had so neglected energy infrastructure for years in that country, they were only producing something like a tenth of potential output. That's not an exaggeration. I mean, they literally just drove that industry into the ground after they kicked out all the American companies and others who actually knew what they were doing there. So that's basically the status in Venezuela and unfortunately it's going to take literally decades to ramp up production there and to rebuild that industry almost from scratch. Now, that's not to say you can't see an increase in output a lot sooner. I would say within just a year or two, not a decade or two, you're going to have some increase in production. But again, to get Venezuela all the way up to their potential, that's going to take many years. Well, and real quick, then I'll get back to Iran, but Chevron has now gone back into Venezuela. They've got a new deal. So I'm assuming that that will increase the opportunity in the years ahead for exports from Venezuela. Now that Chevron is back in the game. Well, that's exactly right. 100%. And so this is definitely really, really going to help. You're going to see that investment pour back in. You're going to see an increase in exploration, in production, in drilling, all of those things. And that's great. And you're going to see the pipelines and the shipping facilities. That's probably the biggest bottleneck. You're going to see all of those things rebuilt in the coming years. But again, these are all things. Next roll with Vernon Davis, the transformative journeys of athletes, artists and entrepreneurs. Ladies and gentlemen, lights out Sean Merriman. I want to be the biggest and the best when I do. And so whatever it takes, I'll get it done in business and everything else. All I do is know how to fight and earn what I want. My man, Malik asks, what actor, comedian would you want to collaborate with? Me, Jamie Foxley, Kevin Hart in a movie. We said it on Vernon Davis podcast. So we'll circle back and be like, yep, it's going to clear. Next roll with Vernon Davis. Follow and listen on your favorite platform. That takes time. And unfortunately, it was not done four years ago. So that's why again, we don't have the excess capacity to meet the surge in demand at this moment. E.J. and Tony is joining us on Super Talk, then in 97. E.J. Some people seem confused by the blockade. So basically, this is my understanding. If it's an Iranian ship from an Iranian port, they're going to get stopped. The U.S. will not interfere with ships transiting from the straight to or from non-Iranian ports. Also, I guess maybe separately, but still impacted. If we see ships that have sanctions placed on them, we'll look at them as well. Fill in the blanks. What else am I missing? I'm not confused by this. I don't know why other people seem to be. Is there anything that I'm missing here? Well, I think part of the problem here is the fact that we keep getting so many conflicting reports. And it's not just news outlets where literally just yesterday, I saw one report that said 20 ships have made it past the blockade. And then another report that said, no, no, it was actually only six. And then a final report that said, no, it turns out it might not have been any. I mean, I just don't know. I mean, which one is it people? The media is reporting on this and the lack of vetting of stories has been absolutely horrendous. Now, some of that probably has to do with the second part, which is that the messaging out of various governments, whether it's ours, whether it's the Iranians, the messaging has been very, very inconsistent. And that's not necessarily an attack on one government or another, because look, this is a war. The situation is on the ground or on the water is incredibly fluid, no pun intended, and things are changing constantly. So I think that's probably part of the confusion as well. Unfortunately, and it's just making it incredibly hard for us to get any solid information out of the region and to actually figure out what the heck is going on so that we can then analyze it and determine, all right, what is the impact going to be of these different events? I thought it was interesting where, so Iran, basically, aside from their own ships and some other select ships, Iran was not allowing any other ships through holding the world hostage. America comes in and we're stopping Iran, but we're letting other ships go through the strait of Hormuz. And so could it be said that with us taking over the blockade, Trump taking over the blockade, that more ships are now able to get through, not less? Again, Dan, it's just unclear. I've seen too many conflicting reports on this to be willing to comment either way. Unfortunately, I mean, look, ideally, yes, that's exactly what would be happening. Ideally, we would be stopping any and all Iranian shipping, and everyone else would have safe passage. That's the ideal scenario. But again, unfortunately, I've just seen too many conflicting reports to know if that's actually true or not. And I get it because I've been talking to you on this station and others for the last couple of months now and oh my lord, you're right. Trying to track down what is actually happening has been frustrating. The Trump administration a while back eased sanctions on Russian oil. Now, this week, the administration came out and reimplemented those sanctions full force. And so a lot of people are accusing the president as they do of flip flopping on Russian oil. He eased the sanctions in the first place because he wanted to help the oil markets and try to keep the price of oil down, the price of gasoline down. Now he is re-implementing those sanctions full force. Talk about why he did it in the first place and why he's doing this now. Well, we basically have this kind of bizarre, codependent relationship, if you will, with oil producers around the world because we're just so dependent on oil. And we are so reliant on low oil prices to try to keep inflation down at this point because there's nothing else really doing it, right? We're still spending, borrowing and printing way too much money, which is creating inflationary pressures. So we're relying on lower input costs via low oil prices to keep things, you know, to keep a lid on inflation. And what has happened with this whole conflict with Iran really is that Russia has been the true winner. Russia was previously having to sell their oil on the black market, essentially, at discount prices in order to get around the sanction regime. And now what they've been able to do is sell at full market price, unsanctioned. And so not only are they selling at a higher price because they're no longer having to sell at a discount, but the actual market price is basically doubled. So they are getting way more per barrel of oil and they're exporting more because they actually do have excess capacity, unlike us here in the United States. And so their oil revenues have absolutely exploded during this whole thing. One of the things that a lot of people talk about, including yours truly, is from a geopolitical standpoint, Iran selling oil to China. We have, you know, word that, you know, if I remember right, I think it was China or Russia. One of the two was providing weapons to Iran. But the question I have is with the blockade going on now regarding Iranian ships, how does that impact China? Does that impact their oil supply as well? Oh, certainly it does. You know, China was getting a lot of its oil from Iran. And look, Iran was another case where they were having to sell because of sanctions. They were having to sell oil under the table at a discount. And when Iranian crude was the only thing actually getting through the strait, that discount went away and their oil was actually selling at a premium to the global benchmark of Brent crude. So again, they were another one where at least when their crude was flowing through the strait, they were selling for substantially more than they were before and they were selling a lot more. So their oil revenues were also exploding. Now what's happening is all of these nations that used to get their crude, whether it was from Iran or from other nations in the Middle East, now they're having to go elsewhere for it. That's why you have all those super tankers coming to the Gulf. And that is why oil prices everywhere have exploded. It is a global market at the end of the day. And so if you're Japan and you previously got 95% of your oil from the Middle East, now you're knocking on the door of West Texas saying we'd like to bid in your auction for this oil. And that's why prices here at home have exploded as well. Even though we drill so much and we are technically a net exporter, if you include all of the crude products from distillation, things like gasoline and diesel, now there's this huge competition from abroad and that again is driving up prices domestically. E.J. real quick, Saudi Arabia has been worried that Iran would in retaliation block their shipping lanes in the Red Sea and that they'd use the Houthi rebels to do it. Of course, another Iranian funded terror organization. Talk about Saudi Arabia's concerns. Well, Saudi Arabia's concerns are very real. They have already maxed out their main East West pipeline that is transferring oil down from the Gulf down to the Red Sea. And so there's nothing more they can get, right? You can't squeeze any additional juice out of that lemon, so to speak. And that means that now not only is that maxed out, but it is the new single point of failure, you can say, for their export market. And you're right, Iran's proxies have threatened as far as I can see, they have been threatening to cut off that choke point as well, which would be extremely detrimental to the Saudis and not just the Saudis, but a lot of other nations as well in that region. So, you know, these single choke points really are the, I think the biggest point of leverage that the Iranians have and they've been using it sadly, very effectively. All right, EJ, always great to have you on. I know you've got a flight to cash. Thank you very much for your insight on all of this and we'll talk again soon. Hey, my pleasure. Thank you for having me. All righty, 551 Super Talk 997 WTN. Yeah, and I think that the Iranians are being put in a box. I mean, they are in a situation now where they are losing a crap ton of money. And I get what EJ is saying and I would agree that the entire world is suffering from this blockade and these blockades. But I think that for me, my perspective on this is that it does make sense that we take the bull by the horns. We do what we need to do to financially cripple Iran. If we could financially cripple Iran, which is what we're doing, then they are more than likely to come to an agreement regarding their quest for nuclear weapons. As a matter of fact, this is why you have President Trump now saying that in the next couple of days, the negotiations will continue. Stephen Miller from the Trump administration, he was on with Jesse Waters last night. Listen to a panicking, Jesse. You will do very well in life. Ignore the panikins, right? They were the ones who warned of calamity in Venezuela and ended up being one of the greatest single foreign policy, military, geopolitical maneuvers in world history. What you're watching now in Iran with the implementation of this blockade is the total resetting of the American power dynamic for the next 100 years. President Trump is saying we, the United States, have the world's not just the most powerful military, most powerful navy. And whoever controls the seas is able to control the outcomes in any foreign policy showdown. And so President Trump has put Iran in a box. He's played the checkmate move. And so now, no matter what path Iran chooses, America wins. If Iran chooses the path of a deal, then that's great for the world. That's great for everybody. If Iran chooses the path of economic strangulation by blockade, then the world will pass Iran by. New energy routes will be established. New supply chains will be established. Other nations throughout the region, throughout the world, and especially America, will power the world. And Iran will become a footnote. So that's the choice Iran has. And President Trump has put America into a win-win posture. We'll have to wait and see what happens. Full send golf. You guys know how much I really, really love golf.
