13m HEADLINE RUNDOWN
  • This is day 9 of the Iranian war that didn’t have to happen.
  • I was pleasantly surprised by how many people reacted to Frank Wrights comments on Friday’s show.
  • I received and email just this morning about it.
  • The developments that are occurring in the Iran theatre here, you have to do serious dudiligence on this stuff.
  • There are people out there spouting things as if they are factual and they simply aren’t.
  • What is happening here is what I have been telling you for 2 decades now.
  • Xerxes, does anyone remember this guy?
19m WAR AND WAR POLICY
  • What does Tomi Lahren know about war policy?
  • What does Levin know about war policy?
  • He was basically crying last night because finally Israel has taken out the great Ayatollah.

THE COALITION FORCES –

  • What is this nonsense?
  • It won’t be long before they are all called The Allieds.
  • Oil is about to spike yet again.
  • You are not allowed to take out oil and gas infrastructure. That is the gentleman’s promise to each other when a war breaks out.
  • Bush had to go in there and take Saddam because he was setting infrastructure on fire.
  • NO ONE is supposed to set oil infrastructure on fire, PERIOD!
  • So the Tondgouyan Oil Refinery was hit.

HEADLINE: Does Trump have a plan to avert an oil crisis that could end his presidency, or is it all just chaos and reckless brinksmanship? The pundits say chaos. Here’s another take. by Jeff Childers

  • The calculous was made to break the agreement to force the IRGC out of business.
  • We always operate from is this a JUST war or not?
  • By striking the Tondgouyan refinery, Trump just shattered that implicit agreement, and it’s now lying on the desert sand in shards. The markets are not taking it well. Neither are some Trump supporters.
  • Who doesn’t get hit by sanctions?
  • What is going to happen to global oil markets?
  • If they keep going up, it has nothing to do with how much oil the United States has.
  • We should be and could be self-sufficient but oil is traded on the global market.
  • There is now talk, I don’t know if this is a leak on purpose, but there is talk about the US forces taking the island of Kharg.
  • What is on Kharg Island one might ask?
  • It is a oil filling station. Miles upon miles of oil pipelines. Kill Kharg you don’t just damage Iran’s economy, you cut off the entire lifeline.
TKD DISCUSSES CONVERSATION AFTER MASS
  • What is every American discussing and worrying about?
  • The War in the Middle East.
  • American women are worried about their sons and the draft.

SEGMENT 2

PERSIAN GULF
  • That left the French having to scramble a half dozen of their ships to the Mediterranean.
  • This is chaos.
  • The United States made China an industrial power.
  • Ever seen a doppler radar station?
50m HEADLINE: Iranian Regime Names Khamenei’s Son as New Leader by Jacki Thrapp and Omid Ghoreishi
  • Mojtaba Khamenei had been seen as a frontrunner in the lead-up to the announcement by the assembly that is constitutionally charged with choosing the Islamic Republic’s next leader. His father was killed in one of the first strikes launched by the United States and Israel against the Islamic Republic on Feb. 28.
  • The position of supreme leader gives Mojtaba Khamenei the final say in all matters of state in the Islamic Republic.
  • Hours before Iran’s announcement, U.S. President Donald Trump, who has said that he will be involved in picking Iran’s next leader, warned the Iranian regime that if their appointed successor is not approved by the United States, “he’s not going to last long.”
  • This is not making America Great Again Mr. President.
56m AUDIO/VIDEO: Karoline Leavitt w/ Maria Bartiromo on Fox – Boots on the Ground in Iran – It has been mostly and air campaign up until now. It has been and President Trump wisely doesn’t remove options off of the table. The President as Commander in Chief wants to continue to assess the success of this operation. It is not part of the current military plan right now but the President likes to keep all his options on the table.
  • I see from an administration that you don’t want to show your hand.
  • You don’t want to talk about how far you are actually willing to go.

1h10m THE DUDE NATION NUMBERS ARE BACK
  • Checkout the History of the Dude Number under the show menu!
  • Take the census and reclaim your number today.
1h13m ART OF THE DEAL
  • One of the things Trump writes about is when you make a deal, you always ask for MORE than you are actually willing to accept. You always say outrageous so you can and have negotiating room.
  • So you say the building is only worth X you offer Y and then come to the middle and the owner of X feels like he got a good deal.
  • Unconditional Surrender – it won’t be unconditional surrender. That is NEVER going to happen.
  • So am I now an anti-Trump?
  • No
  • I don’t want Trump to fail, no American should want America to fail.
  • We should all want America to thrive.
1h28m AUDIO/VIDEO: President Donald Trump on Air Force One – Unconditional Surrender – I said unconditional. It’s where they cry uncle or where they can’t fight any longer and there’s nobody around to cry uncle. They are rendered useless.
  • I get you have to project positivity and strength but those people in Persia will not become Westerners.
  • This is the worst form of colonialism ever invented.
  • We showed you the poll that the youth of America have turned against Israel.
  • Do the Iranians even want a change?
  • I know we saw some footage of people in the streets but why were they in the streets to begin with?
  • The replacement of one Khomenii with another, is that a win?

AUDIO/VIDEO: President Donald Trump w/ Pete Hegseth on Air Force One – With every passing day we have more and more leverage. We hit them harder and harder and they have less of an ability to defend themselves. I think when you look they are sending out much less. At some point there won’t be anybody left to say I surrender. They apologized to the Middle Eastern states for hitting them. That is really a surrender right there. I don’t want the Kurds going in. I don’t want to see them get hurt and killed. I think the war is complicated enough without getting the Kurds involved.

  • How many people are in the IRGC?
  • Some estimate around 600,000.
  • You are just going to wipe out 600,000 people?
1h29m AUDIO/VIDEO: Senator Thom Tillis on CNN – Stephen Miller Should Be Fired – I think Stephen Miller is one of the, not only does Stephen want to just paint a picture, I think he has outside influence over the cabinet. He is a big problem in this administration. He has been from the beginning. But Noem is a Senate confirmed cabinet member she should have been independent. I belive Markwayne will be. I have a lot of confidence in my friend.

1h42m BARACK OBAMA
  • Remember the whole controversy?
  • Comey and Obama and Rob Blagojevich?
  • Patrick Fitzgerald to his eternal shame, he buried Blagojevich.
  • He was absolutely innocent.
  • If you followed this after the fact, ultimately after they knew they had a friendly judge, Blagojevich resigned and then Obama prosecuted him.
  • He was sentenced to 14 years in prison.
  • Barack Obama was a backstabbing liar and he is still to this day.
  • What ultimately happened.
  • Mrs. Blagojevich sent the information and finally got it to someone in the Trump administration and Trump pardoned him.
  • He finally gets out of jail and what does he say at the press conference?
  • He sings Trumps praise, saying I’m a democrat and NO ONE would help me or even listen to me except Donald Trump.
  • The only reason Jackson Jr tolerated them even being there was because they were former presidents.
  • He has NEVER liked Barack Obama.

HEADLINE: Jesse Jackson Jr. lashes out at Obama, Biden for using father’s memorial service to bash Trump by James Gordon

  • What is the message here?
  • Democrats eat their own!
1h51m HEADLINE: Gen Z is Getting Dumber and That’s Hurting the GOP — and America by Joseph Ford Cotto
  • In February testimony before the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, neuroscientist Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath stated that Zoomers have become the first generation in modern recorded history to score lower than its predecessor. This was across key cognitive measures such as attention span, memory, reading comprehension, numeracy, problem-solving ability, and overall IQ.
  • Researchers point to an environmental cause rather than a biological one. The most frequently cited factor is the overwhelming dominance of digital media in both classrooms and daily life. Experts note that excessive exposure to short-form content such as rapid-fire social media feeds, short videos, and abbreviated summaries discourages sustained attention and deep reading. As a result, the intellectual discipline once built through long-form study is eroding.
  • Remove ALL digital devices from schools.
  • AI is an impediment to learning.
  • The findings have raised serious concerns about long-term economic productivity. A generation that struggles with sustained focus and complex reasoning may face major challenges in innovation, technical fields, and strategic decision-making.
  • Learn a foreign language!
  • This will help keep your mind nimble and flexible and it makes you fire neurons that aren’t usually used or connected. It will keep you sharp.
  • Which is why back in the day you had to take a foreign language in school.

2h13m HEADLINE: Gen Z is Getting Dumber and That’s Hurting the GOP — and America by Joseph Ford Cotto
  • How do you get Gen Z our of this downward spiral?
  • Introduce them to the Mike Church Show is step number 1.
  • I am the cure for Gen Z.
  • They can’t get back to intelligent discourse and problem solving and simple logic inside that smartphone.
  • They need to get their hands dirty and challenged to SOLVE problems.
  • What do you give a 18 month old to start their ability to cognitively learn?
  • Why do we give children iPads?
  • Have you ever witnessed a child have a full blown meltdown when their devices loses a charge?
  • We did a show 10 years ago on the children’s YouTube the Momo Challenge.
  • Remember that?
  • Momo is a sinister ‘challenge’ that has been around for some time. It has recently resurfaced and once again has come to the attention of schools and children across the country. Dubbed the ‘suicide killer game’, Momo has been heavily linked with apps such as Facebook, WhatsApp, YouTube, and most recently (and most worryingly)… YouTube Kids. The scary doll-like figure reportedly sends graphic violent images, and asks users to partake in dangerous challenges like waking up at random hours and has even been associated with self-harm. It has been reported that the ‘Momo’ figure was originally created as a sculpture and featured in an art gallery in Tokyo and unrelated to the ‘Momo’ challenge we are hearing about in the media.
2h28m HEADLINE: Human brain cells on a chip learned to play Doom in a week by Alex Wilkins
  • A clump of human brain cells can play the classic computer game Doom. While its performance is not up to par with humans, experts say it brings biological computers a step closer to useful real-world applications, like controlling robot arms.
  • Why do we want to make Terminators?
  • Have you seen the one about the fruit fly?

  • They like the idea of American dominance.
  • I like American dominance too but I don’t think it requires boots on the ground in a foreign country.
  • In the last 48 hours the Democrats must have sent out a memo on the cost of this war in Iran.
  • This is a disaster for him.
  • VP JD Vance seems to be missing in action since the war started too.
  • There is a small contingent of people that aren’t talking from the cabinet and Vance is one.
  • I talked to 4 people after Mass and all of them hate this move by Trump.
  • I don’t know anyone that thinks this is a good idea or this should continue.
  • I trust Trump, yes but maybe he is taking advice from someone he shouldn’t be.
  • Karoline Leavitt was on Maria Bartiromo and she hinted at a draft and not ruling anything out.
  • I want to trust Trump and believe that he is doing this because he has to, but I’m not hearing that from any corner.
  • I don’t know how you wrap this up in 4-5 weeks.
  • You are dealing with the Art of the Deal guy, Bartiromo mentions the draft and Leavitt mentions Trump takes nothing off the table.
  • The imaging is NOT good.
  • Look at what this has done to the Middle East?
  • What American will go to vacation in the UAE now?
  • It is like when Americans went to the music festival in October. They targeted people they thought could be ransomed.
  • Frank Wright talked about the hotel missile struck in Dubai. American Intelligence Agents were in that hotel.
  • How can you travel and know for sure there is no American Intel staying in the same hotel?
  • Earth was not being threatened by Iran!
  • Marco Rubio isn’t explaining why this is a good decision either.
  • Trump ran on discussing the failures of the Bush administration and Obama and all the wars and now he is starting a new war?
  • His clips, his tweets going back to 2011 chastising Obama for doing exactly what he is doing now.
  • He used to understand the failures of neo-cons and now he is just all over it.
  • How does Mark Levin have a policy pass at the White House?
  • I don’t know what happened here.
  • There was no great ideological shift. What happened? Stephen Miller messed up in Minnesota and he is very anti-war so in the last month he faded from existence. I wonder if the Stephen Miller faction has lost power?
  • It was just a matter of weeks when we were all singing USA and we had our toothless mascot in Hughes…and now we have this.
  • It reminds me of the fall of COVID.
  • Are the Zionist this powerful?
3h04m AUDIO/VIDEO: Senator Thom Tillis on CNN – Stephen Miller Should Be Fired – I think Stephen Miller is one of the, not only does Stephen want to just paint a picture, I think he has outside influence over the cabinet. He is a big problem in this administration. He has been from the beginning. But Noem is a Senate confirmed cabinet member she should have been independent. I belive Markwayne will be. I have a lot of confidence in my friend.
  • Stephen Miller is anti-war and he lost control after Minnesota.
  • I think he has fallen out of grace with Trump and he is not listening to him anymore.
  • His lack of influence has caused this Trump 180 on Iran.
  • Here is my theory, someone in the Trump White House knew Stephen Miller was powerful in the WH. Is Thom Tillis, that they have picked Susie Wiles?
  • Did they know they had to get rid of Stephen Miller in order to pave the way for the Zionists that have been waiting in the wings?
  • Marco Rubio has no choice but I think he is getting tired of it all too.
  • I try to give Trump a lot of rope, but when I see things like this I know what Democrats will turn this into and it will be hard to make an argument against that.
  • I am angry at Stephen Miller for thinking this is the time for his and his wife’s personal radio name brand.
  • What is the way out of this?
  • Catholicism is the only way.
  • The longer this goes on, the MAGA program would have worked if the neo-cons and the Zionist got out of the way.
  • If this continues, you will have to go to the American people and beg people not to switch horses in the middle of a war stream.
  • But that is NOT what we all voted for!
  • Sean Hannity spends a lot of time with Stephen Miller’s wife.
3h22m AUDIO/VIDEO: Pete Hegseth Sec of War on 60 Minutes ‘Overtime’ – Unconditional Surrender – It means we’re fighting to win. It means we set the terms. We’ll know when they’re not capable of fighting, there will be a point where they’ll have no choice but to do that, whether they know it or not. They will b combat ineffective, they will surrender. There are a lot of different ways, it is President Trump that will set those terms.
  • I think this just sounds stupid and immature.
  • You sound like a jarhead thinking you can shoot your way to a victory.
  • 96 million people will not become Jeffersonian Democrats.
  • Major Garrett, did you see his face?
  • Democrats haven’t had the best strategy in the last few years but if they figure it out, we are in BIG trouble.
3h32m*** AUDIO/VIDEO: Victor Davis Hanson – What Is Trump Really Doing? – If you get rid of that regime, all good things happen. Then you have no foreign influence. Who is supplying the Iranians with all these drones and missiles? North Korea, China and Russia. Russia has already lost Syria. If we get rid of Iran, China will have no proxy there. That is another thing he wants to do. If you get rid of the Communist regime in Cuba, these are not haphazard moves. It is breaking up this nexus that has been the source of global instability for decades. And the message to Beijing is unmistakable, we are not the America that ran from Afghanistan. This is a new military. One that doesn’t do DEI briefings and drag shows on base. This is one that delivers results.
  • You might have heard of these dictators and leaders that tried to rule the world.
  • What happened to them?
  • Every attempt to run the world from one central location has FAILED!!!
  • It doesn’t matter how many bombs you have, it all comes down to people.
  • This is absolutely delusional!
  • Somehow MAGA has devolved into Trump toppling the Earth and that somehow makes us more American?
  • There will be new enemies through all of this.
  • If I were Putin, I’d be making more nukes.
  • Do the neo-cons realize all of this?
  • What happened to America First?
  • I didn’t suffer through Biden to have THIS happen.
  • The dismissal of Tucker Carlson on an intellectual standpoint was the tell tale sign this administration has lost its way.
  • This is not what MAGA voted for.
  • This is not what Americans want.
  • It is just madness.
3h41m* THE PITT

I finally started watching it the other day, the bar has been set so low this show is getting all manner of academy awards.

They got a white conservative male as the lead actor and then have him perform abortions etc and then they hand out awards for it.
