Trump’s 2 A.M. Posts Spark Controversy Over Russia, Ukraine and the ICC

The transcript presents a critical analysis of Donald Trump’s recent political actions, framing them as dangerously erratic and damaging to global stability and democratic norms. It highlights his controversial posts featuring Mike Tyson, his proposed diesel deal with Russia, and his sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC), which are described as market manipulation and institutional attacks. The text argues that the diesel deal is a minor supply adjustment designed to shield Russia and deter Ukraine from targeting refineries, while also exposing a broader pattern of undermining international cooperation. It further criticizes Trump’s disregard for public safety—such as ignoring a hurricane threat while holding rallies—and his weakening of key institutions like the Federal Reserve and the Supreme Court. Additionally, the rise in Iranian naval attacks in the Strait of Hormuz is presented as a sign of escalating regional tensions, possibly linked to illicit oil shipments. The speaker ties these events to a larger narrative of political decay, warning of a shift toward authoritarianism and chaos. The piece concludes with a promotional push for the book *WTF America*, which is presented as a moral and political reckoning with how the U.S. has deteriorated under current leadership. The tone is urgent, condemning Trump’s behavior as both irrational and self-destructive while calling for public awareness and accountability.

Donald Trump was having a psychotic meltdown at 2am this morning. He was posting photos of himself and Mike Tyson over and over again, photos like this with him and Mike Tyson wearing boxing gloves in front of marine one. With the text, "The boys are back in town," or this, this is the most epic video on Mike Tyson boarding Air Force 1 with President Trump, then random videos of Mike Tyson boxing with text that says, "Let's go with various emojis." This comes on the same day that Donald Trump announced that he was doing a diesel deal with Russia, whereby the Trump regime would be importing 300,000 tons of Russian diesel in October, 500,000 in November, and perhaps a million thereafter, which basically equates to somewhere between two million to four million barrels of diesel, which frankly isn't all that much diesel. If you talk about the global supply, it's less than half a day's worth for the entire world. And we'll talk about it in this video. What this deal with Russia was really about. But it's about saying to Ukraine, "Well, now that we are importing Russian diesel, then you can't target Russian diesel refineries because then you're attacking the United States because we've got this deal with Russia." It was part of a protection racket and a market manipulation scheme. I guess I told you I would wait to reveal that at the end of the video, but I think it's important that I let you know that because as Donald Trump is making these posts with Mike Tyson, and he was running around yesterday with Mike Tyson when he gave that deranged speech in Syracuse, and he was talking about the public execution of Nadal Hassan, that was absolutely my choice. I want a live stream, the execution of Nadal Hassan, and he was sanctioning the ICC. Donald Trump just walking around with Mike Tyson. I mean, I think it was former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said, "We're not a serious nation. We're not serious, and we're very dangerous." Trump has turned the United States into an un-serious predator nation led by a sex predator and vile war criminal and a regime of idiotic war criminals who are destroying the United States. You know the expression, the enemy from within? These are the enemies covering up child sex trafficking rings who are war criminals from within. Let's not freaking mince words. I'll do the plug now for WTF America, the book I did with my brothers, get the e-book, get the hardcover book or the audiobook. We don't mince words. It's dedicated to you. We need to speak with moral clarity right now. I mean, as Donald Trump speaks with filth from that disgusting vile piece of trash mouth of his late last night as he was posting these photos of Mike Tyson, he was whining that he didn't get the Nobel prize in Navi Palais. The former ICC appeals judge. She was one of the main judges on the UN Human Rights Commission, declaring what took place in Palestine, a genocide. The Nobel committee said that awarding the Nobel Prize to Navi Palais was an expression that international law matters and Donald Trump and the magas absolutely lost it. And late last night, look at what he posted. I mean, just look, just physically look at it. Who writes this about anything? And last night it was post after post from that psychotic, filthy piece of trash mouth of that sex predator traitor Donald Trump. He posted, this is the woman who received the Nobel Peace Prize over the great United States of America, who's represented to me, settled eight wars and many other things. I know nothing about this woman. And neither does anyone else. I mean, just because you don't know about her doesn't mean anybody else doesn't know about her. And then I'll tell you who else knows about her. Your buddy, the war criminal genocidal maniac Netanyahu, who you said you would attack the ICC for in order to protect Netanyahu who's brought up on war crime charges by the ICC. So Navi Palais who won the Nobel Prize used to be an ICC judge. So what did the Trump regime do yesterday? How do they show what vile freaking thug losers they are? They sanctioned the ICC and they treat it like it is a terroristic organization with the most severe blocking sanctions reserved for the worst of the worst terrorists. They applied it to the ICC. So anybody who works at the ICC will not be allowed to be in the banking system that uses dollars. You know that just erodes confidence in the dollar you freaking idiots treasury secretary Bessent you freaking loser you want to know why the treasury yields continue to surge you want to know why people have lost full faith in credit in the United States. It's crap like this, which is malicious evil and also just idiotic because who would want to be a part of a dollar based system when you behave like this. The United States for better or for worse regardless of what you feel the undisputed fact the post world war to architecture was created by the United States and built in a way heads us wins tails you lose and that was something that frustrated a lot of people about that system only idiotic Trump or somebody who some people suggest are actually working to rip apart the post world were to architecture on behalf of people like Putin some people say that they're entitled to their opinions under the first amendment is ripping that to shreds and who do you think is benefiting Xi Jinping and Putin are laughing you know literally laughing in the faces as the United States rips to shreds the architecture it created post world war two and Donald Trump sanctions the ICC remove sanctions against Russian diesel Trump acts like oh this was the biggest deal ever could you imagine all this diesel coming in no it's not a lot of diesel it's a tiny fraction of a fraction and as many people are rightly pointing out so you get involved in a catastrophic war in Iran to cover up the Epstein files you in Netanyahu slaughter elementary schools in Manab you destroy sports halls in Lamar you kill a bunch of children you lose the war you create the biggest global oil crisis in world history and then you say oopsies not our fault the real issue here is we need to do deals with Russia for diesel and that's what we're going to do nothing says drill baby drill and energy independence like doing a diesel deal with Russia you pathetic losers if how do you support this stuff I don't care what put that you but anyone unless you're like look I get it if you're pro Putin if you're rooting for the ascendancy and of other countries and the decline of the United States but if you live here like like are the people just lost their damn minds I mean I know that Donald Trump's got a record low approval the worst in modern presidential history and I know in Syracuse it's a small room but y'all are freaking clapping in there for Shamu while he eats his little sardine oh look he could speak oh my god he deserves a Nobel Prize I mean what idiotic stuff is this meanwhile late last night look who's coming into the White House Natalie Harp idiot energy secretary Chris Wright Mike Tyson yeah that's that's who's coming into the White House at 1 a.m. then Donald Trump comes back to the White House late last night before posting all that deranged crap I just showed you and Donald Trump for the first time addresses the hurricane E say and Donald Trump says we're watching the hurricane very closely we think we have it under control we're watching it we what do you mean you have it under control you you have the hurricane under control what a stupid word to say it's a category two hurricane with winds that were like 120 miles per hour it is having these massive flash floods it is a deadly hurricane what do you mean you have it under control it's a freaking hurricane it's not something that can be controlled you what are you talking about here play this clip yeah and then Zalinsky was hit back hard against Donald Trump. Yesterday, I mean, Zelensky was saying that Donald Trump used Zelensky's team and negotiators who were in Miami as a smoke screen to do Putin's bidding. Zelensky said that Donald Trump was just delivering a birthday gift to Putin. Zelensky said that Donald Trump looked utterly weak, that it looked like pathetic behavior. Zelensky and Zelensky's administration said we will not stop burning down refineries, but note what Trump's going to say now. Trump's going to say, well, now Russia's refineries are under our protection because we've got a deal with them. And that's actually embedded in Trump's statement, depending on how the capacity of those refineries are. So then Trump's going to say, well, we won't share with you, Zelensky, any of the intelligence or anything else. And now the Trump regime has already deprived Zelensky of interceptors, interceptor licenses, weapons that were promised pretty much everything. And this is going to be the justification for the Trump regime to say, oh, you're continuing to hit the refineries. So now we're going to take and take and take more. That's what this is all setting up for the autumn and winter offensive because let's be freaking clear. Two billion barrels, four million barrels of diesel, not a lot of freaking diesel. And then just the irony of it, right? Donald Trump sanctioned India and implied massive tariffs on India for bringing in Russian diesel like that happened over the past year. Donald Trump's been attacking Europe and saying, you can't. And in some cases, he was making it up. I mean, the big countries in Europe, Slovakia and Hungary were allied with Donald Trump. They were put in the line. And a lot of other European countries, second and third degree may have been getting some Russian oil, but they were moving away from it. And Donald Trump's whole UN speech in 2025 was this. This is what he said. Play this clip. China and India are the primary funders of the ongoing war by continuing to purchase Russian oil. But inexcusably, even NATO countries have not cut off much Russian energy and Russian energy products, which is, you know, I found that about two weeks ago, and I wasn't happy. Think of it. They're funding the war against themselves. Who the hell ever heard of that one? Or how about these interviews of Donald Trump right here? Let's play. If you're going to win, you're going to have to not buy oil from Russia. Europe is my friends, but they're buying oil from Russia. So we can't be expected to be the only ones that are full, full bore. I put a 50 percent tariff on India because they're buying oil from Russia. If oil prices go down or Russia is not selling oil, I've no choice but to settle. I was unhappy with the European Union or, let's say, NATO when I saw that they were buying oil from Russia. Inexcusably, even NATO countries have not cut off much Russian energy. I mean, he's a thug and he is a vial piece of, you know what? Here's what he posted yesterday, too, based on the fact that a huge hurricane storm is coming. It's important to have our wonderful first responders, law enforcement and others focused on that storm. And in no way, thinking about the safety or present of the president of the United States, me, therefore, I will miss the potentially unbelievable game Alabama verse Georgia. But hopefully the game will go on despite the weather. Hopefully the game will go on despite the weather. Who even says that? If it's a bad hurricane, there won't be a game. What do you mean? I hope it goes on despite the weather. Instead, Donald Trump says, I will go to Tennessee, where we have quickly called a big rally in order to get our fantastic congressional candidates, our great senator Bill Haggerty and a woman who will go down as one of the most impactful governors in the state's history. Marsha Blackburn elected. So you're doing rally celebrations while a category two hurricane is hitting nearby. I'm telling you, he hates you. He hates America. He hates this country. He hates this country's allies. He hates it. And his goal is to destroy it. It's simple. I don't have to overcomplicate it. He is a traitor. He is engaged in treason. He is a sex predator. He is a felon. He is a just putrid piece of trash. That's it. There's no, why is he like that? Because he's those things. And he's bankrupted things his entire damn life. If you are put in a new like, who would be the ideal weapon of mass destruction against the United States? Um, who do you think it would be? Meanwhile, you have JD Vance going out and he's in a whole, he's in Ohio. And he's like to the people of Ohio. You may not remember this, but remember how successful Doge was? Remember Vivek Ramaswami? He saved you billions of dollars. Okay, Doge didn't do anything but destroy. And actually, there's been more federal government spending. Vivek quit Doge. Unliterally the first day. All these people lie about everything while they cover up child sex trafficking. Do you see what they're doing? This is what JD Vance says here. Play this clip. Now, you may not remember this, but in the early days of Doge, Vivek saved billions and billions of dollars from going to woke pet projects and do nothing bureaucrats in Washington. And he has promised me that he is going to do the exact same thing from the governor's mansion in Columbus, Ohio. And more from JD Vance, who's like, do you want to live in an America with people who love it or the people who hate it? You all hate it. Everyone of your actions. I can't think of people who hate America more than this group of people. They literally hate it. I'm not being hyperbolic. They absolutely hate it. Play this clip. We don't need to elect Vivek just because he's going to make a great governor. I promise you he will make a great governor for this state. We need to vote to send a message to the Democrats that you need to check the crazy at the door. And so long as the Democratic Party. And we need to send a message that America belongs to those who love it. Not those who hate it. And so long as the Democrats hate this country, they don't get our vote. And they can stay the hell out of Washington. God bless you all. And thank you for having me. I'll do more videos on this as well. But then the Trump regime also they know they hate our court system. So when they go after the Federal Reserve, which they also hate the independence of the Fed, they're going after one of the board of governors, Lisa Cook. And after the Supreme Court said you can't unilaterally fire a governor at the Federal Reserve Board, the Trump regime made up its own court. Okay. So they said, well, we're going to give Lisa Cook process as we prosecute her for mortgage fraud or whatever we claim she did. We're not going to actually bring criminal charges through the DOJ or bring a civil case. No, we're going to create our own court system. I kid you not. They did the thing. Establishment of a committee of inquiry to investigate allegations of false statements by Lisa Cook. So they're setting up a court, a three person tribunal. Trump picks the three people. The court takes place in the White House. The Federal Reserve governor, Lisa Cook has to show up in the White House. She gets four hours to prove that she did not engage in misconduct. And then Trump stooges, tell Trump if she's guilty. And then if she's guilty, Trump says he gets to fire her. And then Trump says, well, Supreme Court, you said that I had to give her some process. So I gave her a process. This is the process. My own court in the White House. Again, I don't care if you're a Democrat or a Republican. Seriously, these are fascist, authoritarian thugs who need to be called out. Meanwhile, in Iran, they're issuing new warnings in the Strait of Hormuz. They go, not only we're going to hit your ships in the Strait of Hormuz, if you're off the coast of Fugera in the UAE, if you're off the coast of Dubai on the other side, on the west side of the UAE, west side, if you're in Qatar off the coast, if you're a stationary tanker, you know, those stationary tanker to tanker transfers where a smaller tanker then goes to the VLCC and hooks up the hose and then tries to push through the oil, you know, we're going to, we're going to destroy your ship too. And they have, they've destroyed a lot of yesterday. They did another one off Dubai the day before that Fugera. And then earlier, they did one in Qatar, 15 tankers in the past few days have been struck in the Strait of Hormuz by Iran ship after ship after ship after ship. And then MB Galabaf wrote the following, he's around parliament leader as Marco Rubio was in Athens this past week. And he gave this speech in Athens by the Acropolis. And he gave a version of history that told the story of the rise of Athens as though it was the movie 300. You may want to know a little bit. bit about the Thucydides trap there. We're talking about the history of the Peloponnesian war. As Xi Jinping was telling Donald Trump, know your Thucydides trap. Stay out of the way. So you may want to actually know the real history. But I digress. We can talk about that for a while. But Rubio said, Western civilization, we need to support each other. Really? It's like you're like going after all of your allies and you have no understanding of history at all. Embigolaboparans, parliament leaders said throughout history, we Iranians have faced those who declared themselves masters of the universe and sought to erase ancient civilizations. They came in flame and fire only to depart in dust and shame. Those who chase Alexander's legacy will share a valerian's fate. You will kneel. And I want to talk about this too, because we've been saying this for weeks now on the Midas Touch Network. And now finally, you have oil experts saying, geez, maybe Midas Touch was right. Kepler's Michelle brohards suspects some golf producers are quietly paying Iran tolls for safe or moose passage. Possibly 10 to 20% of cargo. You think? It's Matt Brunel writes. Some of us have been suspecting this out loud for a few weeks now. Wait until Kepler learns about all the smuggling networks, getting Iranian oil out via Iraq and maybe even Kuwait. Maybe even with the Taliban in Afghanistan. Maybe that's why there are some meetings taking place. Maybe that's what's going on. Or are we still pretending a nation that has secretly moved oil to avoid sanctions for decades has exported zero barrels of oil in two months? Let's get real here. By the way, in WTF America, the very first page is dedicated to you, the Midas Mighty. See you right there. Says for the Midas Mighty and everyone else who wakes up, checks the news and can't help thinking WTF, how did we get here? Literally, how did three brothers with no political background get here? Get the ebook, get the hard cover. They don't want us uncorporate news to promote this. I frankly didn't want to go uncorporate news to promote it, but the publisher thought we should probably do that. But then the corporate is like, we don't want them on. Okay, I don't want to go on anyway. I don't want to be on anyway with you. Anyway, get the hard cover, get the ebook, get the audio.
