Mein Name ist Alexandra und ich habe gofundme genutzt, indem ich einen Spendenaufruf darüber gemacht habe für eine Familie. Ich wohne in der Innenstadt von Leipzig und es hat bei uns einen ganz, ganz schlimmen Brand gegeben, Wohnungsbrand, der sich über mehrere Etagen tatsächlich ausbreitete. Wir sind so ein Mehrfamilienblock und mein Freund war derjenige, der gesagt hat: Ey, guck mal, hier gibt es ein Portal, gofundme heißt das. Dann habe ich mir das angeschaut und das war dann der Startpunkt. Also was ich jetzt natürlich erreichen konnte, die Familie hat jetzt erst mal eine Not- unterkunft. Die haben vorher wirklich auch in einem Hotel/Hostel gelebt, sind jetzt seit der letzten Woche in einer vorübergehenden Wohnung, haben jetzt aber die Chance gehabt, wirklich Kinderzimmer zu kaufen. Starte deinen Spendenaufruf noch heute in nur wenigen Minuten auf gofundme.com. gofundme.com für deinen Spendenaufruf. Dies ist eine bezahlte Anzeige von gofundme.

Donald Trump has gone silent since it was revealed that multiple US service members were tragically killed in the Middle East as a result of Trump's escalation in this unlawful and catastrophic war in Iran. Donald Trump has not made any social media posts in the past 24 hours. He has not given any public interviews in the past 24 hours. He has not publicly addressed the fact that multiple US service members have been killed in this war recently. Also, we know that dozens of US service members have been injured. We believe that the extent of those injuries are still being covered up by the Trump regime and CENTCOM. Multiple US military bases were hit hard by Iran. US military equipment, helicopters, drones destroyed by Iran's counterstrikes. No public statements by Donald Trump. In fact, yesterday he was in Bedminster, his luxury golf golf course. He was holding a fundraiser. He was spending time with the right-wing oligarchs, and he was hiding from the press. In fact, he called a lid. He kicked out the press. He was potentially gonna speak with the press, and then it was uncovered that there were these multiple US service member fatalities.

00:02:25

So he kicked out the press. I'll show you what state regime media, which calls itself Fox News, said. When it was discovered that there were these US service member fatalities. And then Trump kicked out the press yesterday. Here, let's play this clip.

00:02:41

And he had argued that this was for the future. And we heard him last month during the ceasefire say that if service members were killed, it would end the ceasefire. Again, that ceasefire is no longer in effect. So the White House has just called a lid, meaning we do not expect to see or hear president make any public appearances for the rest of the day. However, I have met some people here in Bridgewater who say that they are attending a black-tie summer bash at Bedminster. It's worth noting that the president does hold fundraisers throughout, throughout different weekends at many of his facilities.

00:03:16

John.

00:03:17

So we have some photos of Donald Trump at his Bedminster luxury golf club yesterday as US troops were under attack and being killed. We have photos of Paul Ingrassia, Paolo Zampoli. That's who introduced Donald Trump to Melania at the Kit Kat Club in the late 1990s. And his ex-girlfriend, the mother of his child, says that she knows about Melania's dark past and Trump's dark past. Um, that's him right there. He's like an ambassador. Andrew Giuliani are there. They're thumbs up. They're thumbs up while all of this is going on. Also, you did hear a public statement from Pete Hegseth, Defense Secretary, he said, "Godspeed, heroes. Their sacrifice only stiffens our resolve," in response to the news that multiple US service members were killed at an airbase in Jordan. Notably, CENTCOM had previously put out a statement after those service members were killed, and CENTCOM should have known that those service members were killed. And the CENTCOM statement was, "No US troops in the region had been recently killed or captured. And that was in response to Iran saying that there were US troops killed in Syria and in the region. And CENTCOM said, absolutely false.

00:04:45

Now, the last time Donald Trump spoke publicly was at Trump Tower. We have footage of what went down there. That was when he was speaking with Gianni Infantino, the head of FIFA, and Donald Trump, while he was escalating the war, before we knew about those, although we suspected on the Midas Touch network there were fatalities, but before it was publicly reported. Just so you can get a sense of where Donald Trump was speaking in the Trump Tower and how everything he does is fake, like this is the public relations— this is the press room that he kind of manufactured. Just so you can see what it looks like for yourself here, play this clip. Now we're getting additional footage of what went down at the Muwafiq Salty Air Base in the Iranian counterstrike that killed those U.S. troops. Let me just show you some of the footage of, uh, the Iranian strikes. Now we showed you some of that footage the other day when we were, uh, when we suspected here that that's what took place. But let me show you the footage for yourself. Play this clip. And then this open source intelligence accounts did a side-by-side where you can see video from inside and outside of the Muwafiq Salty Air Base at the moment two ballistic missile impacts took place on July 17th.

00:06:24

Here you can see it for yourself, and this resulted in multiple US service members being killed. And I'm saying multiple because I still don't believe the CENTCOM number they publicly reported too. We believe that number of course is increasing, and we believe the seriously injured, uh, that that number is being covered up as well. But here, let's, let's play this clip. Now, the Iranian army also published a video of their drones that were launching towards the various U.S. military bases yesterday and the day before, and Iran has been able to strike bases in Kuwait, in Jordan, in Iraq, Erbil, in Qatar, in Oman, in Bahrain, in all of the surrounding Arab nations, and in Saudi Arabia. Just let's play this clip. Now here's video of an Iranian Shahed-136 hitting, uh, hitting its target in the Iraqi Kurdistan region. Let's play this clip. And you can see the US C-RAM systems active over Erbil in Iraq with reports of explosions. Play this clip. Now one of the things we're learning is CENTCOM is very worried that the Patriot interceptors and its systems are really not capable of stopping the Iranian ballistic missiles and the Iranian drones at this point.

00:08:58

We know that the US has gone through a lot of its munitions, but even where it has some, uh, PAC-3 or these THAAD interceptors, Iran's been able to calibrate its ballistic missiles in ways that these US Patriot interceptors are really struggling to strike down the movement and the patterns. Of the Iranian ballistic missiles. And maybe the interception rate is like 10-15% right now. And so these Iranian ballistic missiles have been able to, you know, kind of strike with impunity, uh, at this point. And Iran's clearly found big vulnerabilities in the US air bases in Jordan. And that's why Iran's been really focused on hitting Jordan, where they see a lot of vulnerabilities. And there are multiple, air bases and other US bases in Jordan, uh, that Iran has been targeting. And we've been sharing with you, um, some of those, uh, over the past week or so as well. Um, should be noted that, uh, the State Department had to issue this worldwide caution notice right now. The Department of State has advised Americans worldwide, exercise increased caution no matter where you are in the world. That's what happens when you have Donald Trump as your president at this point.

00:10:21

Oil prices, the price of crude has gone up 20% or so in the past several days. We believe that that'll be over $90 a barrel when the markets open, may even approach $100 a barrel straight if Hormuz remains shut down. Iran in response, you know, so the US has been striking all of these bridges, civilian infrastructure surrounding Bandar Abbas, I've been, I've been covering how, you know, it looks like the US is prepping the terrain for a potential ground invasion, basically cut off Bandar Abbas and cut off the coast of Iran from the rest of Iran. That's why the US is destroying— the US is engaged in all of these war crimes, but they're destroying the bridges and the tunnels. The US also had two desalination, two desalination facilities. Iran responded by striking a desalination, two desalination facilities in Kuwait. 90% of the, you know, of the drinking water— more of the drinking water comes from these desalination facilities. So, you know, they're really reaching a tipping point there, you know, in the Middle East. Iran has demonstrated its ability, uh, to, uh, counter-strike very, very hard. Clearly, uh, you know, when Donald Trump said that Iran doesn't have its weapons anymore and we destroyed all of its weapons, they don't have its radar— remember back in March, they don't have anything I mean, that's the furthest from the truth.

00:11:49

Iran's actually even mocking Donald Trump. They're posting photos of him, the Iranian embassy in South Africa. Here you go, the owner of the world's most worthless signature. And it's Donald Trump in Versailles holding up the memorandum of understanding. Or they show this photo, we intercepted all of Iran's missiles, you know, showing that as the USA. Um, you have Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson talking about how the US striking down the Qabahar Maritime surveillance tower, a civilian facility dedicated to maritime safety, was deliberately targeted by the United States as part of its ongoing aggression. They go on to say, and then the US Secretary of War, uh, Pete Hegseth proudly released footage of the tower's collapse. Had he been able, he would likely have broadcast the lethal missile attack of the Manab school and the massacre of these civilians in Lammert with the same chilling pride. Last night, the US attacked power facilities, desalination pumps, pumps at the Bunji Village, Pear, and Jask, leaving more than 10,000 people without drinking water. For a state that once cast itself as a global champion of order, liberalism, and the war on terrorism, proudly displaying images of destroyed bridges and civilian infrastructure has become its only remaining victory.

00:13:11

Yet with the collapse of every bridge, every tower, and every civilian facility, It is not merely steel and concrete that is being reduced to rubble. It is America's moral standing, along with the entire architecture of international law and the civilization claims of the West, that is crumbling before the world's eyes. The question that must now be asked of America and its allies is stark and simple: what is the real difference between what they have done in Kabahar, Minab, Lomard, and Jasko and the very acts of terrorism they once invoked to justify their war of occupation. That statement coming out, um, from Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson. Donald Trump's last post was about a day ago where Donald Trump was attacking Canada for climate-related wildfires and talking about sanctioning Canada and attacking Canada. One more thing to note as well. It was also revealed yesterday, CNN got the scoop that Donald Trump is trying to allow Saudi Arabia to be able to enrich uranium, which it could quickly turn into weapons grade without any oversight by the IAEA. And again, Donald Trump gets a lot of money from MBS, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. Um, and so that was revealed yesterday as well.

00:14:37

While Donald Trump, again, nowhere to be found in the past 24 hours while multiple troops killed, dozens seriously injured or injured. We believe a lot seriously injured, and that's being covered up. And Iran hitting these US bases hard. Let me know what you think. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million subscribers. Thanks for watching. Breaking news right now. My brothers and I wrote a book.
