This morning, two tankers have been hit by Iran
in the Strait of Hormuz.
One oil tanker,
one LPG tanker.
Also, the IRGC released video footage moments ago
of how it just struck down another MQ-1 drone
belonging to the United States
flying over the Strait of Hormuz.
You have the IRGC spokesperson
delivering this warning right here
that they are still capable
of expanding the war geographically.
There is room to expand IRGC spokesperson,
Mojave Explains.
He says Iran will introduce new weapons
with new capabilities
and strike objectives
that have never been targeted before.
The world will see the power and precision of our weapons
and the world will be amazed with all that going on.
Donald Trump is posting things like this in this morning.
He says,
Trump says Breitbart only outlet that covers him fairly.
And then Donald Trump writes,
the White House is not instituting an assault
on the free press,
something which I cherish.
It is instituting an assault on the fake news,
something that has grown like cancer
in our beloved United States of America.
It is corrupt, purposeful, pervasive,
fully coordinated, and totally out of control.
It is a threat to our national security
and must be stopped now.
Thank you for your attention to this matter,
Donald J. Trump.
Trump views any criticisms of his,
his horrific regime as far-left propaganda.
And he says it is a national security threat,
implying that he will, what,
use the military against news that he doesn't like?
In any event,
the entire White House TV press pool,
consisting of Fox, NBC, CBS, and ABC,
in solidarity backing CNN, MSNOW, and Politico,
which have all been banned from the White House,
they are saying they will not be covering,
Trump events with the press pool for the foreseeable future,
unless Trump allows CNN, MSNOW, and Politico back in.
That means there's not going to be any press pool video footage
of Donald Trump from the White House
as he heads to the UN this week.
And so the press over there standing in solidarity
with each other, with all of this going on,
with oil prices surging, with diesel prices surging,
with small businesses, all businesses getting crushed right now.
It's the American consumers.
American people are feeling the psychological torture
from the Trump regime.
No wonder Donald Trump's latest approval has now hit 29%.
This is the first poll from a major polling entity
showing Donald Trump's approval in the 20s.
And we're going to be seeing a lot more of this.
America Research Group, ARG,
has Donald Trump's approval at 29% with 68%
of Americans disapproving with this as the background.
Donald Trump sent his sycophants on Propaganda Network,
state regime media, Fox, for example.
And small business administrator Kelly Loeffler,
who's a billionaire, she married a billionaire,
she dismisses record high diesel prices
and says that Americans really are just so happy right now
about this war in Iran that they're willing to pay
a lot more money for gas.
And diesel.
This is what the small business administrator is saying.
By the way, she's out there.
Her main initiative right now, I kid you not,
is doing a reality TV show with Nicki Minaj,
the small business million dollar challenge
where they tape small businesses.
They video them like going through obstacles
and challenges or something.
Here, play this clip of Kelly Loeffler.
Look, I think small businesses are looking through this right now.
They obviously, prices are elevated.
There's nothing more important to the price.
The president than getting these prices down.
That's what he's working on every single day.
But we cannot have the largest state sponsor of terrorism
having their thumb on oil prices indefinitely.
He's taking care of that.
Small businesses are in growth mode.
That's the bottom line.
You see it in small business optimism
that during the vast majority of President Trump's second term,
where small business optimism continues above its 52-year average.
We saw that last month.
We saw it the prior month.
And we see small business in investment mode
because of the tax cuts.
Because we're deregulating,
taking the weight of trillions of dollars of regulation
that the Biden administration heaped.
Then you have the Pyongyang political TV network over here
with Harris Faulkner and Tammy Bruce,
Donald Trump's U.S. mission to U.N. deputy.
And they're like, all the diesel issues,
all the price problems,
it was all Biden's fault.
Here, play this clip.
This clearly is a war that never should have happened
and would not have happened
if the president had been in charge.
When this emerged.
But now he has a chance.
But we had Biden.
We did.
And so now we're still dealing with the aftermath of that.
That's when.
And they send out Brooke Rollins,
the agriculture secretary,
to go on propaganda's Benny Johnson show.
When she boasts, she goes,
look at what a great job we've done
dismantling the administrative state.
We've kicked off 6 million people
who relied on services to help feed their children.
Shouldn't we be?
Shouldn't we be celebrated for that?
These are truly evil people.
When Trump won, they'd begun to roll it back.
But this is the magic of Trump too,
is we figured out, learned our lesson in Trump won.
We had four years to prepare
and then we're able to come back
and just start deconstructing the administrative state.
So we've moved almost 6 million people
off of the SNAP program.
Some of it's welfare to work.
Some of it's getting rid of illegals
and some of it is the fraud.
But 6 million people out of,
40 plus million, that's a pretty good chunk.
And I'm really proud of that work.
So thousand people arrested,
lots of people now sitting in jail.
Criminal enterprises have been uncovered.
DOJ has been an incredible partner,
but there's still a lot of work to do.
What an abomination that an illegal can come here
and get on these federal benefits.
On the topic of breaking news,
what if I told you picking the wrong Medicare plan
isn't just a money problem.
It could take years off your life.
That's not a guess.
I just saw this study out of Yale.
that shows how picking the wrong Medicare
plan can really affect your lifespan. Makes sense when you think about it. A plan can sound fine or
look good on paper until you actually get sick. When health issues arise, it matters how easily
you can access the care that you need. And not all plans are created equal. Even if a plan has a few
doctors in network, that doesn't mean they will be able to see you when you need it the most.
That is why you need to talk to Chapter. Chapter is the only national Medicare advisor
that compares every plan nationwide. They look at your providers, your prescriptions,
and what matters most to you and your situation to help you find the best plan for you.
If you're already on the right plan, they'll tell you. If not, they'll help you fix it.
Your Medicare plan shouldn't be the thing standing between you and your best possible life.
Call Chapter.
Call Chapter today at 82-Medicare. That's 82-Medicare.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump continues his posting spree this morning. Donald Trump posted,
Russia has unfortunately lost control of its diesel oil industry due to its war with Ukraine.
A large number of their diesel refineries have been blown up and are at least temporarily
out of commission. This ridiculous and never-ending war with Ukraine must be ended.
The President of the United States, Donald Trump, has said that he will not be able to
the whole world suffers as 25,000 people, mostly soldiers, are being killed each month.
What a shame, DJT. You ran for the presidency of the United States, claiming you would reduce
electricity prices by 50%, that gas prices would be $2 a gallon, that groceries would be more
affordable, that Americans would be able to afford homes, that there would be no more never-ending
wars initiated by the United States. You ran for the presidency of the United States, claiming you
And that you would be able to solve the Russia war in Ukraine in 24 hours after the election.
You said you had a great relationship with Putin and a great relationship with Zelensky. You knew
them. You said you had the perfect words. You weren't going to tell people during the campaign,
but you had the perfect words to bring peace. You promised that to the American people,
but it turns out, surprise, surprise, that you, the ultimate bankruptor who bankrupted all of
these casinos and all of the businesses and defrauded everybody, you, the sexual predator
found civilly liable for sexual assault, you, the felon, someone who's literally a criminal who was
involved in business record crimes, you who has been found to inflate and deflate all of the
numbers of your assets in order to defraud various entities, surprise, surprise, you lied.
And now your response, your plan, your great words is to say, what a shame, what a shame. Oh, but then
it's time to say, what a shame, what a shame.
It's more fraud from Donald. This is what he posted this morning. The United States is working
on a massive deal with respect to the purchase of potash from Belarus. Potash like a fertilizer.
The pricing would be for substantially less than we are currently paying to Canada. Very good news
for our farmers and ranchers. Thank you for your attention to this matter, Donald Trump. So you
got to attack Canada and say, we're not going to get our potash from them, which we do. We're going
to go to and do a massive deal with Donald Trump. We're not going to get our potash from them,
but we're going to do a massive deal with Belarus, an ally of Russia. By the way, Belarus does a lot
of business with Iran. Okay. Which wouldn't that go against your economic D-Day, any country that
does business with Iran, but you're going to do massive economic D-Day means we're doing massive
deals with Belarus. And we want to do massive deals with Russia based on what Trump's planning.
And we're going to give Xi Jinping the greatest state welcome ever.
For any state leader. You had Melania Trump this morning, by the way, posting, and here's what
we're going to, it's going to be meticulous. We are rolling out the red carpet for Xi. It's going
to be beautiful. She did this whole post about that. Anyway, I digress, but going back to
Donald Trump talking about, we're doing a massive deal with Belarus to screw over Canada. Okay. Well,
what does the president of Belarus, Lukashenko have to say? This is from Nasa Niva, Belarus paper.
So Wes, there's nothing to supply. On September 21st, Lukashenko received a report from the
chairman of the state customs committee, Vladimir Olvatsky. During the conversation, he touched
upon, among other things, the prospects of supplying Belarusian fertilizer to Western markets. And
basically what they say is we've already committed all of our potash to China and elsewhere as a
result of prior sanctions. We don't have potash to give Western countries at this point. So you'll have to wait.
Until next year, if we want to talk about potash. So that's what Belarus is saying, not just in
response. They've been saying that for a while now, but it's a good way for Donald Trump to attack
Canada because our idiotic, vile predator leader in the United States wants to do more destructive
things to the United States as Canada goes elbow us up. And we see prime minister Carney meeting
with the head of Norway and he met with French president Emmanuel Macron and continues to build
and continues to now become the leader of the free world. Donald Trump then posts, the same people
that said, this is again, all from this morning, before I be early this morning, the same people
that said we'll all be dead in 12 years because of global warming and names since reborn to climate
change because the planet was cooling, not warming and nobody was dead are the people that are now
saying that AI is going to kill us, that robots are going to attack us and everything is a disaster.
This is more of a hoax than even that of Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia,
Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, and climate change. Whoever wins AI wins. We're leading now
over China and everyone else. And I'm going to keep it that way. I'm not going to stifle growth
of something that will be bigger than the industrial revolution or the internet itself.
We will be careful. That's why we have a department of justice and other law enforcement bodies. Really
your own criminal defense attorney leads the justice department, which is now the injustice
department. It's a racketeering enterprise to cover up the child sex trafficking ring. That is the
Epstein files.
But yes, that's what you're saying is going to protect us from, uh, the abuses of AI and data
centers. I'm sure the American people are deeply comforted knowing that this is the regime that
covers up child sex trafficking rings in plain view. Then you have us trade representative
Jamison Greer going on state regime media. And he's like, and look, I think the Chinese have
been great when it comes to Iran. They've definitely steered clear of helping Iran.
I mean, they're literally,
like, do you don't even watch what goes on in the brick summit or what goes on in the Shanghai
cooperation organization or where these alliances, I mean, these people just think that we're just so
utterly stupid. I mean, are they really this stupid or are they this stupid and malicious?
This is the U S trade representative Jamison Greer showing how economic D day is done here.
Play this clip.
Thanks. Is the Iran war making this relationship more complicated?
So it does add a layer of complexity. Uh, that being said,
the Chinese have heard the president, they've heard secretary Besant on Iran. And we have been
very clear that they can't contribute materially, uh, to Iran's, uh, you know, belligerence. Uh,
we have asked them to moderate their oil shipments. Now they buy oil from Iran. Frankly, a lot of that
oil is just not getting out. So whether they want it or not, it's just not available. And the Chinese
have generally speaking, steered clear of the Iran situation. Then you have JD Vance, by the way. Uh,
he takes, uh, questions.
He's ahead of his, uh, North Carolina departure. And JD Vance says, we continue to see a substantial
amount of gas flowing through the Strait of Hormuz. It's great. Things are going really well there.
That's what JD says. Play this clip.
Well, I mean, I think the biggest update that we have, of course, is that we continue to see
a substantial amount of oil and gas flow through the Strait of Hormuz, despite the Iranians
terrorizing ships every single day. Uh, what the president has said is Iran can't have a nuclear
weapon.
Then a reporter says, so how is,
how is Donald Trump's White House press ban not an attack on free speech? And of course,
JD Vance is like, well, Obama did it. Biden did it. They didn't do it. Obama didn't do it. Biden
didn't do it. Just everything you say is Obama, Biden, right? That's what Kelly Loeffler all said.
Oh, Biden. That's what Tammy Bruce said. Biden, Biden. It's all Biden and Obama's fault. It's like
grow the hell up. We're September 21st, 2026. You're two years into this despicable regime. Act
like leaders. Act like leaders. Act like freaking grownups. Here, play this clip of what he said. Let's play.
Special access.
Sir, you talked a lot about free speech over the years. How is this not an attack on free speech?
Well, they can still report on the Trump White House. They can still get the public reports.
They can still, of course, talk to people in the administration and outside the administration.
What the president has said is we're not going to give you special access inside the White House.
The way that I think about it is if you go back to the Biden administration or the Obama
administration, compare, let's say, Politico to Breitbart. And then finally, JD Vance.
Again, just a vile, loathsome individual. He's like, so if you're going to engage in what's
left-wing propaganda, why should we give you special access at all? Here's what he says.
Let's play this clip.
Are negative. That's not representative of the American people. It's not representative of
public opinion. So if you're going to engage in what is effectively far-left propaganda,
why would a Republican White House give you special access?
Left-wing propaganda. I mean, these people are such fools. Fortunately, I think the American people
get it right now. Trump's approval, 29%, like the worst in history.
