Transcript of Trump Panics as Iran Traps Him New

Donald Trump is spiraling out of control this morning as Iran continues to put the screws in him as they push forward with their 10-point negotiating framework and hold Donald Trump to it by closing the Strait of Hormuz until Donald Trump agrees that the framework that Trump agreed to is the actual framework. And we're seeing right now, uh, the oil markets reacting to the real situation on the ground, not Donald Trump's lies and fraud. Again, a per barrel of oil has exceeded $100. And the market is recognizing that not only was this a taco, a Trump always chickens out, but a total capitulation, a total surrender by Donald Trump and the United States to Iran's 10-point framework where Iran got everything they wanted— enriching uranium, control over the Strait of Hormuz, America has to leave its military bases in the Middle East, full reparations to Iran, and Iran right now is using the Strait of Hormuz as its leverage to enforce those 10-point terms.

And they're saying, you know, good luck if you don't agree with those 10-point terms, we're going to control the Strait of Hormuz for a long time.

Donald Trump is posting the following this morning.

None of these— Donald Trump is lashing out at Europe and NATO right now.

That's Donald Trump's response.

None of these people, including our own very disappointing NATO, understood anything unless they have pressure placed upon them!

Exclamation point. And then he posts a bizarre AI image of himself and Dana White in front of the White House with weird lightning bolts. Because one of the things that Donald Trump is very excited about is bringing the UFC to Washington, D.C. And that's what Donald Trump really wants to focus on as he destroys American power abroad.

Bring the UFC to Washington, D.C.

That's what the American people want.

No, the American people want healthcare.

The American people want to be able to afford homes. American people don't want these wars.

American people want you to release the Epstein files. American people just want to live their lives with normalcy without you destroying it every day. This is just in, um, from a strategic advisor to Iran's parliament speaker, M.B.

Ghalibaf.

His name is Mahdi Mohammadi. And here's what he writes: Only a limited number of hours remain without the complete restraint of America's dogs in Lebanon. There will be no ceasefire or negotiations, and the missiles are ready to fly. The equation of shared destiny among the components of the resistance axis as part of the new regional order following Iran's victory must be solidified, if possible with kind words, otherwise with war. In other words, treat us nicely, Donald, and say nice things about us because we won this war. And that's how we're viewing it in Iran. That's how they view it in Iran. I don't know how else you could view it any other way considering Donald Trump agreed to all 10 of Iran's, uh, 10-point framework, which was basically surrender by Donald Trump. We're learning more about the deal as well, that basically the Trump regime begged Prime Minister Sharif of Pakistan to allow the United States to fully capitulate. Because I guess Trump's plan is, let's agree to the 10-point plan and then we'll claim, oh, we didn't really understand it because M.B. Ghalibaf, Iran's parliament leader, doesn't speak English that well. And so there was reasonable misunderstandings.

And so do you remember when, uh, Prime Minister Sharif of Pakistan posted like, draft for Prime Minister Sharif? And it was like, literally, New York Times is reporting the U.S. literally wrote a social media post on X, which is formerly Twitter. I mean, how pathetic for the Prime Minister of Pakistan to post saying that negotiations were progressing well. And then the US told Pakistan, just tell Iran that we agree with all 10 of their points. And that's ultimately what led to this fake ceasefire that we're in right now. You know, one of the things that Iran is saying is that Donald, you violated multiple points of our 10-point plan. And clearly Lebanon and Hezbollah was— read the 10-point 10-point plan. Let's make reading great again. It said in the 10-point plan that all of the proxy groups of Iran would get security guarantees, including in Lebanon. That means Hezbollah. Also, you know, Prime Minister Sharif, the Prime Minister of Pakistan, he also posted Lebanon is included when he announced a deal was made. And by the way, Iran clearly had Prime Minister Sharif of Pakistan post-Lebanon was included because they knew that what was going to happen right after this was announced was the United States and Israel, or Israel would go and bomb Lebanon.

And yesterday, what, 258 people in Lebanon were killed. It was the biggest massacre in Beirut since the, you know, in recent memory. I mean, close to 2,000 casualties, 258 dead, the suburbs of Beirut obliterated. Here you have the parliament leader, MB Ghalibaf, of Iran. Here's what he just posted moments ago. Lebanon and the entire resistance access as Iran's allies form an inseparable part of the ceasefire. Point 1, 10-point proposal. He's citing the 10-point proposal. So when Donald Trump's out there saying there's lots of different lists that are circulating, we know the realist— no, the list is out there. We know the 10 points. I've been talking about it on the Midas Touch Network every day, and I've been talking about it for 3 weeks because it's always been out there. Point 2, Prime Minister Sharif publicly and clearly clearly stressed that— clearly stressed the Lebanon issue. There is no room for denial and backtracking. 3. Ceasefire violations carry explicit costs and strong responses. Extinguish the fire immediately. And STRONG is in all caps. Can I just say what a humiliating posture the United States is in right now, where you have the parliament leader of Iran wagging his finger and accurately citing a document that the United States agreed to while Donald Trump saying, this guy doesn't know English.

That's what JD Vance said. I don't think he knows English well. Just, just so you know what I'm saying, I showed you a clip of this. This is what the, this is what the Trump regime is going with. Uh, there must've been a misunderstanding in the deal. Cause Ghalib Boff, I don't think he knows English all that well. We know the 10-point plan. Here's what Ghalib Boff said here.

Play this clip.

A lot of agreement. That's point number one. Point number two, to respond to each of those issues. And I I read it very closely. Let me just say this. I actually wonder how good he is at understanding English because there are things that he said that frankly didn't make sense in some of the context of the negotiations that we've had. But to address the 3 points, first of all, he talked about an attack that allegedly happened on Iran and how that was a violation of the ceasefire. Ceasefires are always messy. An hour after the president announced the ceasefire, the Iranians launched a bunch of missiles. Then the Israelis responded.

All right, now we're hearing from the president of Iran, Pesechki, and here's what he just posted. He said, Israel's renewed incursion into Lebanon is a blatant violation of the initial ceasefire agreement. This is a dangerous sign of deception and a lack of commitment to potential agreements. The continuation of these actions will render negotiations meaningless. Our fingers remain on the trigger. Iran will never abandon its Lebanese sisters and brothers. And again, that responds to another message he posted that the repeated aggression by the Zionist entity against Lebanon is a flagrant violation of the initial ceasefire agreement and a dangerous indicator of deceit and lack of commitment to potential accords. The continuation of these aggressions will render negotiations meaningless. And while they're saying that, just look at the Strait of Hormuz right now. You can see that very few ships are getting through. In any event, here's what a senior Iranian source is telling their state regime media about the ceasefire. In the best-case scenario, here's what Iran's saying: Iran will cap transit through the Strait of Hormuz at fewer than 15 vessels per day, with all passing subject to IRGC approval. Iran says it's mined the entire Strait of Hormuz, so you to take the ship right around the coast.

So it's super close to Iran where they have direct strike range. If they find that there is any violations of a deal that you have to strike with them, where you pay around $2 million per tanker, which was again in the 10-point plan that Donald Trump agreed to. He added that the new IRGC, Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps transit framework, has been officially communicated to regional parties, meaning UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, Bahrain. This is it. Iran is a superpower in the region. That's what they're saying. As a result of the United States catastrophic war, the source said that unfreezing Iran's blocked access is a critical executive guarantee required to uphold the ceasefire and must be delivered within a 2-week window. Remove all sanctions against Iran. Great. Great work, Donald. The war's end must be codified in a UN Security Council resolution on Iran's terms, or Tehran is fully prepared to resume combat against the US and the Zionist regime. In other words, we don't trust Trump to bless the 10-point plan. United States, you're going to have to vote on it in front of the entire world at the United Nations. Tehran insists that during this 2-week period, the US cannot increase its troop presence in the region.

On uranium enrichment, Iran remains committed strictly to the text of the exchanged agreement. That means they enrich uranium. That's what it said in the 10-point plan. That's— go read, go back and read the 10-point plan. It says Iran gets to enrich uranium. That's what Trump agreed to. He agreed to it in public. There will be no return to the pre-war status quo, is what the Iranian regime is saying. And in response to this, Trump goes, okay, time to attack Europe. The US is increasing pressure on its European partners to commit military forces in the Strait of Hormuz. According to information obtained by Spiegel, Der Spiegel, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has informed European capitals that Donald Trump expects concrete commitments within the next few days for the deployment of warships or other military capabilities from Europe. Political pledges such as those made in the days since the start of the war are no longer sufficient. So Donald Trump is saying, send your ships to the Strait of Hormuz right now, or else the United States withdraws from NATO. That's how Donald Trump is reacting to all of this. Meanwhile, you have Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu saying, we Israel still have objectives to complete.

We will achieve them either through agreement or by renewing the fight. Right now here on the home front, uh, our GDP growth for fourth quarter has been revised down once again. So the fourth quarter 2025, it was 1.5%, then 0.7% or 0.7%. Now it's 0.5% in its final revision downward. That was the quarter, remember, when Howard Lutnick, Trump's Commerce Secretary, and Scott Bessant, the Treasury Secretary, said things are gonna be gangbusters, gangbusters. Here's NATO's Secretary General Mark Rutte, who's just been so weak. Here he is saying that a couple of countries are holding back on Ukraine's entry into NATO. One of them is the United States. So Donald Trump's attack right now after losing the war in Iran is to just continue to attack NATO.

Here's Mark Rutte here.

Play this clip right here. NATO summit in Washington, and when NATO was celebrating the 75 years, there was an agreement on the irreversible path of Ukraine into NATO. But also, the fact of the matter is that a couple of countries are holding back, including Germany and Slovakia, Hungary, the United States. So I don't think it is on the table right now.

And so what's the response, though, from EU, France, UK, Spain, Italy, and Belgium? Well, they're calling right now to make sure that Lebanon is is included in any ceasefire agreement. As DropSite reports, a chorus of European voices pressing Israel to extend the US-Iran ceasefire to Lebanon, where Israeli strikes have killed at least 256 people and wounded 1,100 people since the truce was announced on Tuesday. And as all of this is taking place, Donald Trump's focus, in addition to the UFC fights in Washington, DC, his golden ballroom. I want you to watch as a MAGA Republican Congress member, Herdopoulos, is confronted about Trump using foreign steel to construct the Golden Ballroom.

Play this clip.

Uh, right now construction is halted, uh, at the White House, but the New York Times reports this morning that President Trump has championed the U.S. steel industry, promising to strengthen and impose stiff tariffs on foreign metals to shield manufacturing from overseas. Yet the White House has secured tens of millions of dollars worth of donated foreign steel for the $400 million ballroom project. That's according to two people familiar with the plans. How would you feel about, about the new wing of the White House being built with foreign steel?

Well, I, I get news to me, John. That's breaking news. I had not heard that. Obviously, we want to use American steel. America has really strengthened its, its economic power recently because you're seeing so much foreign investment happening here. Let's hope they use American steel. That would make common sense to All right.
