Kaboom. That was the sound heard around the world this weekend as U.S. precision strikes targeted three Iranian nuclear facilities. But while the military operation achieved its objectives with remarkable efficiency, the political fallout has been anything but clean.
In our latest episode, we unpack the U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites, the firestorm in Congress, and why media spin is clouding national security judgment. From the War Powers Resolution to the specter of a nuclear Iran, it's a raw look at the realities behind the headlines.
💥 Is this decisive action—or political hypocrisy exposed?

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Well, ladies and gentlemen, what a weekend.
If you were actually at home onthe weekend, the only thought
you might have had was kaboom,kaboom to Iran, kaboom to the
United States, kaboom to theWest.
Doesn't matter what angle youthought, you thought kaboom.
You see, there are too manypeople out there today waking up
(00:21):
, rolling out of bed and sayingyou know, it's the end of the
world as we know it.
Once again, steward donaldtrump is the be-all and end-all
when it comes up to the end ofthe depth.
He's an autocrat.
He does whatever he wants.
He's running the united statesinto the ground.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,blah, blah.
Yeah, if you were listening tothe talking heads on Sunday, it
(00:45):
was wall-to-wall coverage of theinfamous attack on three
nuclear sites in Iran.
What's incredible was thepresident hardly and I'm saying
hardly got a high five fromanybody on the left, john
Fetterman being an exception.
Every Democrat, almost fromwall-to-wall criticized.
(01:05):
Now there were a handful, likeDebbie Wasserman Schultz your
good friend there, stuart whoactually was positive about it,
and a few others were positive,but they're not going to get the
media attention Because seefrom CBS to CNN to the rest of
those crackpots Donald Trump isthe Hitler incarnate.
He's an autocrat.
He did unconstitutional things,which, unfortunately, has been
(01:29):
proven to be false.
Moreover, how interesting it isthat past presidents, from
Clinton to Obama, have committedthese type of attacks on
foreign soil and no one dared toquestion it.
What a surprise.
Welcome back, everybody, to theRant Network.
I'm David Solomon, he is StuartPrisgall.
(01:50):
We do this every Monday,wednesday, friday noon.
We call it the Rant Network.
What we do here is simple it'sunedited, it's uncensored, it's
unfiltered, and we are sounapologetic it's actually sad.
We don't even really care, wedon't do anything with this.
We rant, we record, we play itat noon Eastern, and you get to
hear the quirks of modern life,politics and so much more.
So sit back today, folks,because today, being Monday,
(02:15):
june the 23rd, the world's adifferent place.
And rather than people focusingon the success of a mission,
rather than people understandingthe geopolitics behind the move
made by Donald Trump, whenpeople do not understand that
the Middle East is not yourkindergarten, but gang warfare,
(02:37):
tribal warfare, and it's notdiplomacy that works, stop
believing in this diplomacy,that that's the thing that has
to work.
What works, folks, is peacethrough strength, and even that
word, peace, is a little bitloose, but let's call it calm
through strength.
Stuart, what was your opinionon the weekend?
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Well, let's start off with Kaboom, all right.
The War Powers Resolution iswhat this rant is actually about
.
Of 1973, it's been used byUnited States presidents since
then, and the first presidentwho used it was Ford right To
(03:20):
evacuate forces from Vietnam.
Then Reagan used it to deploytroops to El Salvador, clinton
did it for the bombing of Kosovo, obama did it for action in
Libya, bush authorized Iraqresolution, used it again in
2002.
And then 2019 pushed for theend of the military involvement
(03:45):
in Yemen.
Let's first start the WAR Act.
The WAR Act is specificallydesigned for the President of
the United States to utilize itas he see fits, with a narrow
scope, and that he must notifyCongress within 48 hours.
Sorry, aoc, you're a crackpot.
(04:07):
That's what the C stands for.
And that he must notifyCongress within 48 hours.
Sorry, aoc, you're a crackpot.
That's what the C stands for,because there is no basis for an
impeachment.
However, aoc, I'm now startingto question whether or not,
under the other act which I'mgoing to let you look up, david
that if you preach againstamerica as a member of
government, you've no longerfulfilled your obligation on
(04:31):
upholding the constitution ofunited states.
Sounds great, david, right?
Speaker 1 (04:36):
wait, we heard this before.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah, you know what.
But here we go, aoc, the squadbitch in charge, who's literally
should go back to bartending Imean, really, I heard her jokes
about naked turtles.
Was like one of her top drink,uh, caveats.
And you know what?
(04:58):
She doesn't seem to have losther poor, but you know what?
She's not poor anymore, david,because she has made a fortune
on the back of Americans.
You know what her?
You know?
No, no, david, david, she makesa fortune talking trash about
(05:18):
Israel and Donald Trump, and andthat's what we have to now take
a step when do these crazyDemocrats get all their money,
since we got rid of USAID thatwe reported several weeks ago?
Now back to the War Act.
Donald Trump dropped oh, it was27 bunker buster bombs on Iran
(05:45):
over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
I think it was 14, but it doesn't make a difference
of the number.
I think 30 Tomahawk missileswere fired.
It doesn't matter.
He basically leveled threenuclear sites.
Let's go with that.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
You know?
And by leveling the threenuclear sites.
Where is the paper dragoncalled the Ayatollah Khomeini?
He said he would attack at 10o'clock one night after israel
bombed him.
Never happened.
He's gonna threaten to shutdown the oil pipeline through
the port vermouth.
That china's not gonna let thathappen, vermouth vermouth
(06:21):
harmoose, not vermouth.
Vermouth is a drink hey man, Igot addiction.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
You're making fun of me I'm not making fun of you.
Just get the names right,because it's a drink, not a
straight.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
But go ahead, but but but again, where does the left
get out calling something Ididn't hear them bitch about
when osama bin laden took outthat was taken out by obama.
I don't remember congress beingcalled on that in a full
session and every member invitedback.
(06:54):
Do you, david?
That's not even listed on thatlittle mini list that I stole
off the internet because I'm notthat smart.
I need some good Google or chatGPT to get a deeper dive in
this.
But at the end of the day, theWar Act usage has been a key
critical element that manypresidents of the modern era and
(07:15):
I can't really think of onethat didn't use it off the top
of my head, except maybe Bush Jrno, bush Sr didn't use it, I
believe.
I think every other presidenthas since and, that being the
case, no one's ever called foran impeachment of any president
of the United States inprotecting American interests.
(07:36):
Now, when Obama sent billionsof dollars of cash to Iran on a
plane, or we released billionsof dollars by Biden, that would
actually encourage the world'slargest sponsor of terrorism
since 1979 that has killedthousands of Americans, be
(07:58):
something that a party in theUnited States would be opposed
to, unless they are taking moneyfrom these illicit
organizations?
Am I accusing AOC for takingmoney from Iran agents?
Probably.
I think we need to investigateAOC.
I think AOC's finances shouldbe turned upside down inside out
(08:18):
and every single person thatgave her a dollar should be
vetted at this point, because noAmerican should be against
bringing world peace to theworld stage.
This is something that everypresident has fallen short of,
whether it's Obama's red line,whether it was Reagan's threat,
or whether it was Bill Clintontrying to make a second term.
(08:42):
They all seem to walk back thisaction and for the first time, a
president actually took theinitiative and didn't let Israel
blow up the nuclear site.
So, out of all three nuclearsites that were blown up in the
last 20 years, united States gotone, israel got two, and that
gives the world a stage of beingsafer.
(09:04):
Now, if any country in theirright mind wants to sell them a
nuclear weapon like Russia, likeChina I think that would just
put us in a world war, becausewho wants to give a crazy-ass
terrorist a nuclear weapon?
What crazy politician wants toallow a crazy regime that
(09:25):
represents near 20% of thecountry want to have a nuclear
weapon?
No one was ever against freepower, in other words, creating
nuclear power.
This blowing up has nothing todo with iran having a safe,
friendly nuclear environment togenerate energy for its people,
(09:48):
but for a country that likes tostarve its people, chances are
the rumors were true they werespinning to get a bomb to drive
terror around the world and takea seat at a table with threats
and more, more negativity, asthey have since 1979.
What is that?
(10:08):
46 years, david?
46 years of being a terroristorganization to the world,
killing americans, british,germans, canadians alike, david,
you know I, I, I, like you saidabout aoc, really doesn't
matter.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
It's's not about AOC story.
Aoc is just a poster child.
It's what?
What's going on in with, withTrump, derangement syndrome?
It's this notion that Trump iswrong.
How dare he?
I'm trying to understand Stuart,really like in the grand scheme
of this world, is what is wrongwith people?
It's backwards, it's upsidedown.
The terrorists can attackbecause they're angry, they're
(10:48):
allowed to do, they're mad.
The colonists, colonialistslike americans, like british,
like french, have ruined theworld and we cannot, you know,
shouldn't, say anything aboutthese, these countries.
Look what we've done in themiddle east.
Look at that.
People.
Get off your fucking high horse.
You may have smoked a littlebit too much weed in harvard and
Harvard and Columbia and allthe rest of those places.
(11:10):
Here's what's the reality.
Iran was on the verge of havingnuclear weapons State.
Again they're on the verge ofhaving nuclear weapons.
Israel went in to stop anattack, not just on Israel, but
on the region.
Again, if you think of whathappened in Chernobyl, stuart,
(11:32):
in the 1980s, when the reactorwent off, what was the range of
the radiation?
It went on for miles.
It went on for miles.
Entire regions were impacted,water was impacted, regions were
impacted, water was impacted,environment was impacted.
So if you drop a nuke or two onTel Aviv and on wherever else
(11:56):
you want to hit, you think it'sonly limited, you think the nuke
is smart enough to know oh wait, wait, here's the border of
Israel and Lebanon, stop righthere.
Oh wait, here's the border ofIsrael and Egypt, stop right
here.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
No, no, no, the red zone was 30 kilometers and
that's what they figured outwith technology from way back
when that's the red zone.
The range was 2,600 kilometersof contamination.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Okay, so let's figure that out 2,600 kilometers of
radiation goes into Europe, goesinto Africa, goes into Asia,
goes into Iran.
It doesn't stop.
But yet here we are ready tosay doesn't matter, it's okay.
What Donald Trump just did onSaturday was very, very simple
(12:48):
Stop or we'll make you stop.
And to call him a bully, anautocrat I love the remark.
Let's take the word of Iranians, and I had this argument with
somebody.
He decided to Facebook messageme about.
Why do we need violence?
Why does the United States needto be violent?
Why does Israel need to beviolent?
And I'm going.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
(13:10):
This has been a group of people, as you said, for 46 years
state-sponsored terrorism.
They've killed people all overthe world, but it's US, israel
that are guilty of violence.
Now, stuart, I got to tell youif it was limited to morons like
AOC, eh, but it's not.
(13:30):
Prime Minister Carney of Canadaand his bitch of a foreign
minister, anita Anand, havedecided to reunite the-.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Be careful, david, they can arrest you.
In Canada, you don't have thefreedom to speak.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Let them arrest me.
Please let them arrest me,because you know what, stuart,
free speech isn't free really.
Because you see, I don't agreethat Mark Carney is sitting here
today and demanding, as theCanadian prime minister, that we
must return to the negotiatingtable.
What negotiation?
Donald Trump called fornegotiation, okay, but then to
(14:04):
say, oh, but Obama gave them theJCOPA, obama gave them the keys
to light the match $1.4 billionof cash.
Biden gave them even more.
And everybody blames trump.
Trump ripped it up, guys.
Enough with the politics.
This is the problem story.
This is politics at its best.
(14:24):
This is childish schoolyardtactics at its best, because the
left will never admit thatthey're wrong.
The left will never admit thatthey got their.
The left will never admit thatthey just put their cards on
their siding with the wrongpeople.
This is the media andpoliticians who have decided
(14:46):
that they are smarter.
You know what's interesting,stuart, is?
Mark Carney has never spent onesecond on foreign affairs in
his goddamn career, but suddenlyhe is an expert on Middle East
affairs.
Okay, once again demanding thatthe US cease and desist.
And, by the way, the thingwhich made me ill and this is
where I tell you why Mark Carneyis a piece of garbage is he is
(15:09):
quick to say we need to evacuateIranian Canadians out of Iran,
but not Canadians stranded inIsrael.
Goes to show you where hisbrain is at.
So when you start putting allthese pieces together from all
these wonderful politicians, youask yourself what the hell is
wrong.
Now, stuart, I'm going to tellyou something.
The Middle East, forgenerations, has been about
(15:32):
tribal warfare.
You can't change people.
Okay.
There are a lot of people therewho that's what they believe in
.
You have a cultural differenceand yet we believe arrogant and
all that we know better in theWest.
We're smarter, we're cultured,we're more advanced.
We're not.
We're actually chaoticallystupid because we've never
(15:55):
spoken their language.
We don't want to understandtheir language.
We would rather play on otherpeople's lives to further our
political aspirations ratherthan do the right thing.
Today, stuart, I got to tell you, thanks to Joe Biden, the
United States is a scary placeto be in.
Not because you know of a lot.
You know of so many of hispolicies One open border
(16:21):
immigration.
Now you now have sleeper cellssitting in the United States.
We have sleeper cells in Canada.
We've let in, by the way, we'velet in thousands of Iranians
too, because God forbid we're tostop terrorists in any Western
country.
We've been bad in the past.
We must pay the price and wewill allow everybody in.
(16:41):
We're not allowed to ask aquestion, because then we're
racists.
Here we are today.
Donald Trump flushed out forcrying out loud.
He flushed out these Iraniansand now he's being blamed for
world disorder.
People, like you said, peopleare scared.
Oh, we're going to close thestreets of Hormuz.
(17:03):
The Iranians don't have thepower to do it.
They've tried in the past, bythe way, stuart, and once again,
the noise that the media pushes, the statements are so full of
shit it's not even funny.
So once again, ladies andgentlemen, when you ask yourself
where the facts are at, stewartwas smart.
He at least went into Googleand chat GPT and asked a
(17:26):
question and got something real.
Most people won't do it.
They would rather listen toMargaret Brennan on CBS, who
will spin stupid lies with marcorubio again, and she will.
And then you know.
And if you watch cnn, oh my god, why didn't trump advise the
democrats?
Why did jimmy carter advise therepublicans when he was sending
in a terrible, uh uh, hoskumess mission into iran?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
you don't do that because loose lips sink ships no
, they they're not obligated toand that was the point that I
started off this rant is nolimitations of what you're
responsible to and when you'resupposed to do it.
At the end of the day, david,these people are expecting us to
do things that they would neverconsider doing.
They believe they have thesecret sauce and everyone else
(18:13):
is wrong, and if you sayanything against them, you know
little debbie.
You know, if she actuallydidn't say anything negative,
that would be shocking no,actually she was on.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
She was on point on this one, but I've got to give
you a last one.
I'll wrap it up with thisstatement okay, stewart, it's
absolutely fascinating to justwatch over the weekend how
people think that the onlypeople who have any moral
morality are the Democrats, orthat the left knows better.
It's absolutely insane tobelieve that this is how we in
(18:47):
society, everything's aboutdivide, divide, divide.
Donald Trump, that's incredibly.
That's how they do it.
You, you know what.
It's incredible how this wholething went down.
No one knew about it and veryfew people were in the know.
And this went successfully.
Iran didn't see it coming.
(19:07):
Iran didn't see it coming.
You flew B.
Two bombers for 18 hours yeah,there and back, stuart.
No, there and back, stuart.
No, stuart, there and back is36.
18 hours there, no one said boo, no one caught any.
No surface to air missile,nothing.
And instead of applauding whatthe United States has done,
(19:30):
condemnation from the UNSecretary General, who himself
is a staunch racist.
All the way to the left, stuart, we are living in fucked up
times With that.
Stuart.
You won't let me continue Withthat.
Ladies and gentlemen, that's itfor the Rat Network.
We'll probably have more crapon Wednesday.
So come on, come on, all right,will you Cheers?
Well, ladies and gentlemen, what a weekend.
If you were actually at home onthe weekend, the only thought
you might have had was kaboom,kaboom to Iran, kaboom to the
United States, kaboom to theWest.
Doesn't matter what angle youthought, you thought kaboom.

(09:48):
but for a country that likes tostarve its people, chances are
the rumors were true they werespinning to get a bomb to drive
terror around the world and takea seat at a table with threats
and more, more negativity, asthey have since 1979.
What is that?
(10:08):
46 years, david?
46 years of being a terroristorganization to the world,
killing americans, british,germans, canadians alike, david,
you know I, I, I, like you saidabout aoc, really doesn't
matter.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
It's's not about AOC story.
Aoc is just a poster child.
It's what?
What's going on in with, withTrump, derangement syndrome?
It's this notion that Trump iswrong.
How dare he?
I'm trying to understand Stuart,really like in the grand scheme
of this world, is what is wrongwith people?
It's backwards, it's upsidedown.
The terrorists can attackbecause they're angry, they're
(10:48):
allowed to do, they're mad.
The colonists, colonialistslike americans, like british,
like french, have ruined theworld and we cannot, you know,
shouldn't, say anything aboutthese, these countries.
Look what we've done in themiddle east.
Look at that.
People.
Get off your fucking high horse.
You may have smoked a littlebit too much weed in harvard and
Harvard and Columbia and allthe rest of those places.
(11:10):
Here's what's the reality.
Iran was on the verge of havingnuclear weapons State.
Again they're on the verge ofhaving nuclear weapons.
Israel went in to stop anattack, not just on Israel, but
on the region.
Again, if you think of whathappened in Chernobyl, stuart,
(11:32):
in the 1980s, when the reactorwent off, what was the range of
the radiation?
It went on for miles.
It went on for miles.
Entire regions were impacted,water was impacted, regions were
impacted, water was impacted,environment was impacted.
So if you drop a nuke or two onTel Aviv and on wherever else
(11:56):
you want to hit, you think it'sonly limited, you think the nuke
is smart enough to know oh wait, wait, here's the border of
Israel and Lebanon, stop righthere.
Oh wait, here's the border ofIsrael and Egypt, stop right
here.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
No, no, no, the red zone was 30 kilometers and
that's what they figured outwith technology from way back
when that's the red zone.
The range was 2,600 kilometersof contamination.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Okay, so let's figure that out 2,600 kilometers of
radiation goes into Europe, goesinto Africa, goes into Asia,
goes into Iran.
It doesn't stop.
But yet here we are ready tosay doesn't matter, it's okay.
What Donald Trump just did onSaturday was very, very simple
(12:48):
Stop or we'll make you stop.
And to call him a bully, anautocrat I love the remark.
Let's take the word of Iranians, and I had this argument with
somebody.
He decided to Facebook messageme about.
Why do we need violence?
Why does the United States needto be violent?
Why does Israel need to beviolent?
And I'm going.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
(13:10):
This has been a group of people, as you said, for 46 years
state-sponsored terrorism.
They've killed people all overthe world, but it's US, israel
that are guilty of violence.
Now, stuart, I got to tell youif it was limited to morons like
AOC, eh, but it's not.
(13:30):
Prime Minister Carney of Canadaand his bitch of a foreign
minister, anita Anand, havedecided to reunite the-.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Be careful, david, they can arrest you.
In Canada, you don't have thefreedom to speak.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Let them arrest me.
Please let them arrest me,because you know what, stuart,
free speech isn't free really.
Because you see, I don't agreethat Mark Carney is sitting here
today and demanding, as theCanadian prime minister, that we
must return to the negotiatingtable.
What negotiation?
Donald Trump called fornegotiation, okay, but then to
(14:04):
say, oh, but Obama gave them theJCOPA, obama gave them the keys
to light the match $1.4 billionof cash.
Biden gave them even more.
And everybody blames trump.
Trump ripped it up, guys.
Enough with the politics.
This is the problem story.
This is politics at its best.
(14:24):
This is childish schoolyardtactics at its best, because the
left will never admit thatthey're wrong.
The left will never admit thatthey got their.
The left will never admit thatthey just put their cards on
their siding with the wrongpeople.
This is the media andpoliticians who have decided
(14:46):
that they are smarter.
You know what's interesting,stuart, is?
Mark Carney has never spent onesecond on foreign affairs in
his goddamn career, but suddenlyhe is an expert on Middle East
affairs.
Okay, once again demanding thatthe US cease and desist.
And, by the way, the thingwhich made me ill and this is
where I tell you why Mark Carneyis a piece of garbage is he is
(15:09):
quick to say we need to evacuateIranian Canadians out of Iran,
but not Canadians stranded inIsrael.
Goes to show you where hisbrain is at.
So when you start putting allthese pieces together from all
these wonderful politicians, youask yourself what the hell is
wrong.
Now, stuart, I'm going to tellyou something.
The Middle East, forgenerations, has been about
(15:32):
tribal warfare.
You can't change people.
Okay.
There are a lot of people therewho that's what they believe in
.
You have a cultural differenceand yet we believe arrogant and
all that we know better in theWest.
We're smarter, we're cultured,we're more advanced.
We're not.
We're actually chaoticallystupid because we've never
(15:55):
spoken their language.
We don't want to understandtheir language.
We would rather play on otherpeople's lives to further our
political aspirations ratherthan do the right thing.
Today, stuart, I got to tell you, thanks to Joe Biden, the
United States is a scary placeto be in.
Not because you know of a lot.
You know of so many of hispolicies One open border
(16:21):
immigration.
Now you now have sleeper cellssitting in the United States.
We have sleeper cells in Canada.
We've let in, by the way, we'velet in thousands of Iranians
too, because God forbid we're tostop terrorists in any Western
country.
We've been bad in the past.
We must pay the price and wewill allow everybody in.
(16:41):
We're not allowed to ask aquestion, because then we're
racists.
Here we are today.
Donald Trump flushed out forcrying out loud.
He flushed out these Iraniansand now he's being blamed for
world disorder.
People, like you said, peopleare scared.
Oh, we're going to close thestreets of Hormuz.
(17:03):
The Iranians don't have thepower to do it.
They've tried in the past, bythe way, stuart, and once again,
the noise that the media pushes, the statements are so full of
shit it's not even funny.
So once again, ladies andgentlemen, when you ask yourself
where the facts are at, stewartwas smart.
He at least went into Googleand chat GPT and asked a
(17:26):
question and got something real.
Most people won't do it.
They would rather listen toMargaret Brennan on CBS, who
will spin stupid lies with marcorubio again, and she will.
And then you know.
And if you watch cnn, oh my god, why didn't trump advise the
democrats?
Why did jimmy carter advise therepublicans when he was sending
in a terrible, uh uh, hoskumess mission into iran?
Speaker 2 (17:51):
you don't do that because loose lips sink ships no
, they they're not obligated toand that was the point that I
started off this rant is nolimitations of what you're
responsible to and when you'resupposed to do it.
At the end of the day, david,these people are expecting us to
do things that they would neverconsider doing.
They believe they have thesecret sauce and everyone else
(18:13):
is wrong, and if you sayanything against them, you know
little debbie.
You know, if she actuallydidn't say anything negative,
that would be shocking no,actually she was on.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
She was on point on this one, but I've got to give
you a last one.
I'll wrap it up with thisstatement okay, stewart, it's
absolutely fascinating to justwatch over the weekend how
people think that the onlypeople who have any moral
morality are the Democrats, orthat the left knows better.
It's absolutely insane tobelieve that this is how we in
(18:47):
society, everything's aboutdivide, divide, divide.
Donald Trump, that's incredibly.
That's how they do it.
You, you know what.
It's incredible how this wholething went down.
No one knew about it and veryfew people were in the know.
And this went successfully.
Iran didn't see it coming.
(19:07):
Iran didn't see it coming.
You flew B.
Two bombers for 18 hours yeah,there and back, stuart.
No, there and back, stuart.
No, stuart, there and back is36.
18 hours there, no one said boo, no one caught any.
No surface to air missile,nothing.
And instead of applauding whatthe United States has done,
(19:30):
condemnation from the UNSecretary General, who himself
is a staunch racist.
All the way to the left, stuart, we are living in fucked up
times With that.
Stuart.
You won't let me continue Withthat.
Ladies and gentlemen, that's itfor the Rat Network.
We'll probably have more crapon Wednesday.
So come on, come on, all right,will you Cheers?
