Speaker 1 (00:03):
Welcome to the Brian Mud Show. Thanks for listening. Passion
plus talent is unstoppable.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
It's time for today's Top three takeaways. Hello, Hello, happy
for Friday to you. Let's talk a little bit about
what open means, what was accomplished, and also what comes next.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
My top three takeaways for you on this Friday.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Before I get to that top takeaway, a little hikeem
Jeffreys for your morning.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
Look on Joel's face a little too early for hakeem.
You want to? You want that?
Speaker 2 (00:48):
That's really yeah, A little hikem for you House minority
leader in this reckless war of choice and billions of
dollars are being spent to drop bomb in Iran while
Republicans are.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Unwilling to spend a time to make life more affordable
for the American people.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
You go, I am not capable of saying more than
a few words without pausing because I'm highly inauthentic, and
I have to read the script.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
And the other thing that is great about that cadence
is good but pretty good, it wasn't it. Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Yeah, Now I can get down the second life politician
thing very well. Like I need the teleprompter to be
able to see which direction I'm supposed to go. H. So,
by the way, the teleprompter is the reason I went
to radio. I haven't told that story in a very
long time, but quite quite literally, I had a television
and internship. All the way back. I anticipated I was
(01:52):
going to do television, and then when I was instructed
back in that era that you're going to read from
a telepri I'm like, the heck I am.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
The big thing was editorial control.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
It's like, you know what, if I could have editorial
control over that teleprompter, then then maybe I could work
well you did, so literally the way that went down
is you mean to tell me that if very if
I do a good job and everything works out and
I get behind the the you know, anchors, charrier, that
I am going to have to read from a teleprompter
(02:27):
that I may or may not have any editorial control over.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I quit the internship right then and there, and I
kid you not, And that's actually what took me to radio.
So yeah, no, I people who don't have game need teleprompters.
Is there's nothing wrong with it, you know, to keep
you on track.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
I mean Trump is.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
At its best actually when he's paying attention, and it
is on track with this teleprompter is to get too
far off the reservation. But for the people that have
no game and have to have that teleprom that is.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
That's a ag. Let's see San Diego.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Yes, So a couple things about that first, hold on
not spending money to improve forward to build the reason
that quote hit me here, I want to play this again.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Pew pointed Democrats to Israel.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
That is the man formally knows the frank Confederate. He's
been making a lot of sense. Here's a chem again.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
In this reckless war of choice, and billions of dollars
are being spent to drop bombs in Iran, while Republicans
are unwilling to spend a dime to make life more
affordable for the American people.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
How do you spend money to make life more affordable?
This is the next great thing about the economic illiteracy
of the left. Remember how we had the American Rescue Plan.
Biden gets in, We have next to no inflation and
literally was running a one point one percent and he
did two things and Democrats along with him that ended
(04:00):
up leading to the forty plus year high historic inflation.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
What was it?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Number one? Opened the borders. But the thing that was
the gasoline all over this country. All that artificial spending
is so called American Rescue Plan. Because we spent all
this money, what did that do? That drove up demand
artificially while also watering down the value of the US dollar.
(04:26):
So if your dollar's worthless, and if you're creating artificial demand.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
What's going to happen? Inflation?
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Quite literally, what he said would cause higher inflation. The
government spending money to improve affordability, it does not exist.
That is the oxymore run, the government can reduce taxes,
can reduce regulations that could make life more affordable. The
(04:56):
government can't spend money to make things more affordable.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
It's not the way it works.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Oh my gosh, and these people want power again. So
let's talk a little bit about what open means. A
ceasefire deal with Iran continue to hold through day two,
increasing the likelihood that what we've seen take place militarily
is actually the extent of what will take place militarily
with Iran during Operation Epic Fury. I'm actually optimistic this morning,
(05:26):
Like I feel pretty good about how things are trending.
I know, the news cycle, whatever else you get through
two days in a ceasefire.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
History is pretty good about these things.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Meanwhile, intention remains on the standoff over shipping through the
straight of horror moose, of course, and mainly that American
forces remained positioned in an offensive posture until Apartment of
Peace deals in place. Also, our NATO allies have offered
what if they offered they is put out that statement
saying they were going to offer.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Assistance with it. Still I haven't seen it.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I think they offered words yet again and more hollow
words that they would help ensure the safety of shipping
through the straight ofform moose, Useless, effeckless, whatever you want
to call those people. So stakes are high as peace
talks are planned this weekend between the US and I Ran.
And there's a really good chance that what open means
to you and what open means regarding the stray of
(06:22):
horror moose are a little bit different. And there's also
a good chance that in general, you couldn't care less
about the finer points of what the definition of an
open straight of horror moose is. You mainly just don't
want to be paying four bucks for gas. But of
course the two are currently interconnected and yesterday, the tangled
(06:42):
web of ceasefire diplomacy became much clearer as to what
the definition of open, according to Iran currently means. This
came from the CEO of the Dabi National Oil Company
that happens to be the United Arab Emirates state owned
oil entity, in other words, a credible authority. He addressed
(07:04):
the current state of this trait as this. He said,
this moment requires clarity. So let's be clear. The Strait
of Foremoose is not open. Access is being restricted, conditioned
and controlled. That is not freedom of navigation. That's coercion.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
So in other words, technically the strait is open, as in,
if you want to take your ship through, you're welcome to. However,
you're going to be potentially inspected by the IRGC and
they are probably going to demand some form of palm greasing.
That is the coercion he's referring to, so I running
and Revolutionary Guard Court coercion is the standard of open. Predictably,
(07:46):
most shipping companies want a lot more certainty than that,
and that's why only nine ships made it through the
strait yesterday. If you're a glass half full kind of person,
that was progressed yet again because only two to three
had made it through prior to the ceasefire. Only seven
went through on day one of the ceasefire. So we
did see more get through, including importantly an energy tanker.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
We didn't have that in the first day, but.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Still we're only seeing eleven point seven percent of the
traffic in terms of cargo getting through that straight that
we ordinarily would have had yesterday. Now, unless you're down
with the IRGC's safe passage policies, you're still not shipping.
This is also why oil ticked higher to ninety eight
(08:33):
dollars a barrel yesterday and also kind of why we
ended up seeing oil ticked to over one hundred this morning.
By the way, in real time, this will make it
feel a little bit better Joel back.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
In ninety eight.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Okay, yeah, so it is that not really worse than
it was yesterday at this morning. So that said, the
key to the next phase of diplomacy Israel ending attacks
against hez Blot and Elebanon took a big step when
Prime Minister Benjamin and Yahoo announced that he had directed
his cabinet to negotiate with the Lebanese government about the
(09:05):
disarmament of Iran's largest terror proxy in the country. And
so that takes us to our second takeaway today, which
is what was accomplished. And now I bring to you
the SoundBite from one senator formerly known as the Frankenfeeder,
who's made the recovery from that stroke. This is the
the Fetterman, which see Waters.
Speaker 4 (09:26):
Last night, Pew pointed out eighty percent of Democrats view
Israel and negative like that's that's insane. You know, that's
our special ally, that's that's the only place in the
region that has the kind of values and the kinds
of way that we live.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
True all of that.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
So Senator Fetterman had previously told Sean Hannity before Jesse Waters,
but he remained the only elected Democrats supporting President Trump's
Iranian war and seesfire policies and the whole of Congress.
By the way, he said that the Iranians only respond
(10:04):
to power and that President Trump's actions have made the
world safer. He also added this to those on the
left riddled with TDS, suggesting that simply posted awards on
social media now amount to a war crime, because you know,
that's one of the things that Democrats are talking about.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
It's a war crime.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Trump saying that he was going to end these civilization.
Now you can just post something like that that itself
is a war crime. Fetterman's response. Every single thing Iran
has done is a war crime, and he was talking
(10:44):
about that over the course of forty seven years. Every
single thing they've done, it's war crime. He said, we
are the force for good in the world. Well done,
Frank Confeedter. So it's unclear if if we will end
up at some point, I mean the offensive with Operation
Epic Fury from here. But the further we go into
(11:05):
the ceasefire, the better the chances that it will hold
will be. But here is the scorecard yet again of
what has been accomplished. Because it's easy to lose sight
of what has happened. We struck twenty and this is
with Israel twenty one thousand targets in Iran. We destroyed
(11:25):
over two thousand IRGC operatives. We took out the IRGC's headquarters.
We took out fifty senior officials and probably fifty one
because the sun of the of the dead Iotola, who
is said to be the current Iotola, has still not
surfaced with the living. We killed five hundred command and
(11:49):
control centers controlled by the IRGC, four hundred and fifty
missile launchers, two hundred and fifty UA these, one hundred
and fifty year defense systems, one hundred and fifty naval vessels,
one hundred and twenty radars systems, one hundred air defense
mobile batteries, thirty fuel facilities used by the IRGC, sixteen
fighter jets, seven nuclear facilities use for enrichment, six military airports,
(12:10):
four oil facilities, three gas facilities, all used by the military.
And you mean to tell me the world isn't a
safer place for that. And again, in terms of incoming
and how well we defended ourselves and our allies, Iran
only hit eighty targets eighty one and a half percent
(12:31):
hit rate. So that takes us to my third takeaway today,
which is the next conquest south ward of Congressman Carlos
Jimenez had this to say, They're.
Speaker 5 (12:41):
At the weakest point that they've been in over sixty
seven years. I think the new Trump administration needs to
continue to put the pressure on. Look all of these regimes.
All they will always do when they find themselves in
a week position, they will try to negotiate, and they're
negotiating simply to by time for them to get into
a stronger position so that they can stay in power.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Who is he referring to? What country? Talking about Iran? No,
he's signed about Cuba. Oh, Cuba.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
That's instructive, because what I always say about the Axis powers.
He was talking about Cuba, and you thought he was
sagying about Iran. So the next conquest. Meanwhile, in President
Trump's dream of consciousness known as his Truth social feed,
a particular comment he made gained a great deal of attention.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
And what was the comment?
Speaker 2 (13:29):
He said this, all US ships, aircraft, and military personnel
with additional ammunition, weaponry, and anything else that is appropriate
and necessary for the lethal prosecution and destruction of an
already substantially degraded enemy will remain in place and around
Iran until such time as the real agreement is reached
and fully complied with. If for any reason it is not,
(13:51):
which is highly unlikely, then the shooting starts bigger and
better and stronger than anyone has ever seen before. It
was agreed a long time ago, and despite all of
the fake rhetoric to the contrary, no nuclear weapons and
the straight up horm moves will be open and safe.
In the meantime, our great military is looding up and resting,
(14:16):
looking forward actually to its next conquest.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
America is back.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
The next conquest comment at the end of that post
is what drew the most attention there. And while the
not so great Danes are unnoticed. Because President Trump did
mention Greenland again this week, It's actually quite clear that
it is Cuba that is in question here that is
the next conquest. It's not only part of the Axis
(14:45):
Chinese Russian power network that President Trump is successfully unraveling
from the bottom up. Its government is currently collapsing under
its own communistic weight. It hasn't made the news even
here in South Florida, which I find hilarious because anytime
there there is anything that seemingly could be perceived to
be negative for the Trump administration, our state and local
(15:06):
media seems to be able to find a way to
report that. But when there's actually something that's rather remarkable
that's been happening in Cuba this week that impacts directly
family members taken as political prisoners of South Floridians, Bueler
guess what's been happening in Cuba. This week, the legacy
Castro regime began releasing political prisoners that the US demanded
(15:29):
they release Cuba, and what they have called a humanitarian
and sovereign gesture, said they would release the twenty ten
political prisoners arrested for protesting freedom that they have held.
And as for what comes next to Keueban government has
confirmed talks with the United States, which are being led
(15:50):
by Secretary of State Marco Ruvio, following President Trump's promise
of a friendly takeover. One of the operating ideas about
what comes next is that Cuba effectively becomes a city
state of the United States, kind of if you think
about it this way, America's version of what Hong Kong
is to China.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
So that is the nexus of the next conquest.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
And also what isn't being paid attention to as you
have your local and state news media focused on, I
don't know what are they focused on today?
Speaker 5 (16:24):
Well today Debbie Watserman Schultz owt visit to Alligator alcacra.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
There you go that one. Yeah, they're all hungry and yeah,
uh huh.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
And they peede in their selling. So that now that's
our problem too, I think is what happened there. That's
what they're focused on, not the releasing of political prisoners,
of family members of southwarding ands in Cuba and the
unraveling of that regime.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Why would that be Newsworth It you got
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Dws and and some illegals who pete on themselves
