Trump's Day Gets Even Worse….

A series of escalating attacks and geopolitical tensions have intensified in the Middle East and global energy markets. The IRGC confirmed the destruction of the Algea tanker in the Strait of Hormuz after it struck a naval mine, reinforcing Iran’s control over the strait and rejecting U.S. claims that mines have been cleared. In a broader escalation, Iran has successfully shot down three MQ-1 drones in a single week, demonstrating growing capabilities in air defense. Concurrently, key infrastructure in Saudi Arabia—including multiple pumping stations on the vital East-West oil pipeline—has been damaged, disrupting daily crude flows of 5–7 million barrels and raising global energy instability. Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi directly challenged U.S. President Donald Trump, condemning attacks on civilian ships and humanitarian targets, and calling for direct military confrontation. Meanwhile, U.S. jet fuel prices surged to $4.43 per gallon, up 96% since the war began, driving a 23% year-over-year rise in airline fares. This is compounded by the shutdown of the Exxon refinery in Illinois, raising concerns over supply chains. In a separate incident, Israel bombed a Doctors Without Borders bus in Gaza, injuring humanitarian workers. Domestic political controversy intensified as Vice President JD Vance faced criticism for promoting anti-immigrant, anti-healthcare, and anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric during a Kansas speech, including falsely claiming that a protestor was anti-Christian. Investigations also revealed DHS practices involving immigrant detention in "dog cages," drawing widespread condemnation. With Houthi advances threatening Saudi territories and regional powers seeking military intervention, global energy and political instability continue to escalate.

This is a breaking news alert. Trump's day just got even worse. Moments ago, the IRGC announced that yet another super tanker in the strait of Hormuz exploded after hitting a mine in the strait of Hormuz. The super tanker was called the Algea and had entered into that restricted area south of the strait of Hormuz despite prior warnings. According to the statement just issued by the IRGC, the tanker struck a naval mine and exploded with crews unable to contain the fire as flames are engulfing the vessel. The vessel is now completely destroyed. The IRGC reiterated that the strait of Hormuz remains closed and under its control and that the mines have not been swept despite the Trump regime's lies to the contrary. Also, we are now learning that the IRGC was also able to shoot down an American MQ1 drone over the sky of the strait of Hormuz. Yes, this is in Groundhog's day, yet another MQ1 was destroyed and Iran has been able to destroy billions of dollars worth of these MQ1s and MQ9s and other drones, and this follows last week where multiple unmanned submersive drones and unmanned submarine-like drones and also MQ1s, the air drones were able to be struck down by Iran. This is the third MQ1 drone that was shot down by Iran in the past week alone, and more photos are now coming out of Saudi Arabia, the satellite footage over here. We're seeing another Saudi East-West pipeline pumping station that was damaged in the recent attacks. This is a different photo from what I previously showed you. This is a different area. The attack on the East-West pipeline was not merely just one pumping station. Multiple pumping stations have been destroyed. There's really no way the East-West pipeline is going to be able to move crude again for a number of weeks, and that usually moves about 5 to 7 million barrels of oil every single day from the East to the West right there. Now, Iran's president Pzezskiin just gave a speech where he looked at Donald Trump in the cameras and says, "Fight like a man you coward." This is coming from Iran's president Pzezskiin who just wrapped up a very successful trip to the Bricks block where he and other Bricks nation leaders talked about more cooperation with each other. We saw him photographed with President Xi Jinping of China with Prime Minister Modi of India. He also met with the leaders of the UAE of Abu Dhabi. Of course, also meeting with Putin. President Pzezskiin of Iran challenged Donald Trump. If you think that you want to take us on, then bring your military in. Let's go and fight. If you want more, fight man to man. Stop shooting civilian cargo tankers. Stop bombing schools and hospitals and infrastructure. Stop having Senkhan Bragg about blocking 100 civilian cargo ships when this provides food and medicine and other supplies to the people of Iran. And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, we're learning about the US jet fuel price search. Again, we've been talking about diesel, of course, surging. We've been talking about the price of gas surging. You know that by now. Let's not forget about jet fuel. And so when the crude is taken, it goes into these refineries. And the refineries then are producing the gas and the diesel and the jet fuel and all of these things. Well, US jet fuel has now surged to $4.43 a gallon. Up 96% since the war began. And 61% in the last 10 weeks with a 10% rise in the past week alone. As a direct result, consumer US airline fares jumped 23% year over year in August with most of the recent crude oil rally, not even yet in the data. And by now, you know, it's only going to go up even more with the Houthis controlling the Red Sea, Iran continuing to control the straight of her moves, the East West pipeline being shut down. And again, we talked earlier today as well about the Joliet facility, the refinery that Exxon refinery in Illinois. That was shut down as well. It had some technical power outage. We saw the black smoke flaring there, awfully interesting timing that a refinery in Illinois, just all of a sudden started flaring all this black smoke and shut down with all of this taking place. Hmm, I wonder what could have happened there. Well, with the Trump regime, they'll just continue to cover up everything. And meanwhile, with all of the news that I just reported on there, we learned that the Netanyahu regime just bombed a doctors without border bus today in Gaza, a bus operated by the, the doctors without borders carrying ten humanitarian workers was damaged in Gaza Strip when an Israeli air strike targeted a vehicle that was two meters away. That's what we're learning out over there. As the day gets worse, JD Vance, Vice President was in Kansas. He was supporting Roger Marshall, Roger Marshall's the current MAGA Republican Senator there. He used to be an OB-GYN obstetrician gynecologist. And the New York Times recently did an expose how he filed over 700 lawsuits against his patients. He did wage garnishments. He destroyed people's credit if they owed a hundred bucks or thousand bucks. But even hundred bucks, 150 bucks for operations, he would sue all of his patients. And he's of course been a Trump bootlicker. He loves the tariffs against the world that have harmed the people of Kansas. I showed you over the weekend the Kansas state fair debate that he had with Adam Hamilton, who's a pastor. And somebody who I thought gave an incredible debate performance. Let me show you over here as JD Vance got booed during this speech that he gave in Kansas. And JD Vance's speech was basically saying, you know, Adam Hamilton, he may be a pastor, but he's not really really, he's not a real Christian. The real Christians are the ones who rip away your health care and sue the patients. That's what Jesus would have on. Again, JD Vance is just such an utter fraud here. Play this clip. Roger. Oh, I see, I see, I see we have, I see we have a guy who is protesting. Sir, the last. You know, the last, the last time, the last time I gave a speech and we had a guy who was interrupting, he had the common courtesy to bring a Mexican flag so we knew where he stood. Now, this guy, this guy, I'm telling you, ladies and gentlemen, here's what happened is he decided to come in and lie about my very dear friend, Doc Marshall, because the reality is that Doc Marshall has stood up for every day. Did you know that helping dolphins led to the first essential fatty acid discovery in over 90 years? It's called C-15 and it's a total game changer for aging healthier. Fatty 15 co-founder Dr. Stephanie VanWatson discovered C-15 while working with the US Navy to improve the health of older dolphins. It turns out C-15 is a foundational nutrient that actually strengthens our cells. Without it, we develop cellular fragility syndrome, a deficiency that affects one in three people worldwide, causing our cells to age faster. Fatty 15 repairs age-related damage and protects your cells from breaking down. It's actually shown to have three times more cellular benefits than omega-3. By activating pathways that regulate sleep, mood, and metabolism, it helps you feel better now and stay stronger as you get older. In fact, 70% of customers report deeper sleep, calmer moods, and better energy within just 16 weeks. Because we're all aging, healthy aging needs to start now, and Fatty 15 is the signs backed way to do it. I'm a huge fan of Fatty 15 and I've personally felt the benefits. Fatty 15 was developed to support healthy aging for all. From kids to parents to grandparents, that's why award-winning Fatty 15 is now available as pure capsules, delicious apple mint gummies for teens and adults, and yummy berry-blast gummies for kids.

And notice JD Vance is like, you know, there was another protester during the Republican convention, at least he had the Mexican flag. Remember, I reported that that was all a setup and that that wasn't even a real protester at the Republican midterm convention. Lots of people who were there were saying like, the guy was clearly, you know, appeared to be an actor or someone who was in on what was going on there. Then you had JD Vance implying that the protester, that was at this Kansas event is gay. He was actually representative of the organization and that's why he was unhappy. He's saying that Adam Hamilton's church supported a pride march or supported a group believing that all humans are created equal, whether you're gay, straight, trans, whatever. And that JD Vance is saying nope, Jesus would not like trans people. Jesus doesn't like gay people. By the way, JD Vance thought he was gay in high school. Go read JD Vance. Don't read his book, but he believed he was gay. And then his mom, his mama, his mama, papa, his mama, papa, mama, mama, mama, papa, papa, uh, did like gay conversion therapy or told him he's not gay. I'm not gay. I'm not gay. Then he was anti-Trump and he's like, I'm not, I'm not anti-Trump, mama, papa. You're playing this clip or what Adam Hamilton did. He made sure that his church was a key financial sponsor of something called Pride Fest in Kansas City. He took, that was our little protester friend. He was actually a representative of that organization. That's why it was unhappy. He took the donations from him. Then JD Vance said, you know, when you start putting American homes into the hands of American citizens and you take out the immigrants, that's why we're seeing home prices drop. JD, I'm not sure what world you're living in right now. Home prices are not dropping right now. Okay. And mortgage rates are over 7 percent. The 10 year treasury yield is over 5 percent. The 30 year is approaching 6 percent. People can't afford homes. JD here play this clip. Millions of people who should have never been here to begin with. They've, as they've exited our country, we started to see finally some pressures on pricing come down in the United States of America. Remember under Joe Biden, the cost of a median price tone more than doubled. In four years, the price of a home doubled under Joe Biden. But now for the first time in five years, rents are falling, especially by the way in the cities and the towns where you see the biggest drop in illegal immigration. The reason is simple. When you start putting American homes into the hands of American citizens rather than illegal immigrants, you see that price start to come down and that's what we got to keep doing. Then JD Vance has his own take on Christianity. He's like Adam Hamilton, not a real Christian, not a real Christian. That's radical left wing radicalism. If you want to be a real Christian, you got to rip away people's health care. You got to put immigrants a little dog cages. Remember the reporting I did earlier today that the independent federal watchdog, the inspector general within the Department of Homeland Security, based government entity said that the Department of Homeland Security was putting immigrants in little dog cages so that they can reflect on their behavior issues. I mean, how sick is that? That's how according to JD Vance, real Christian, real Christians put human beings into little dog cages. Rip away their whole care and soul. I'm JD Vance. You're playing this clip. So utterly ridiculous. Meanwhile, on Cerella, the Houthis continue to advance east. They're encircling TIE's city and you see them moving east right now, Saudi Arabia on the ropes. They're begging the Netanyahu regime for help. So you have the commander of St. Comrade Cooper. You have Netanyahu's military officials meeting with MBS and Saudi Arabia to try to figure out a plan to slaughter the Houthis. That's what's going on now. Keep you posted every step of the way.
