Speaker 7: Welcome my friends to the winds. They addition of Bosner
at least Rush Hour the fastest hour in American media.
And of course the fire hose is on and apparently
we'll stay on for the next three and a half years.
Today's news includes the situation in Iran, and I have
questions about that, a question that I would like to
pose to.
Speaker 4: Many of you.
Speaker 7: Also, the big beautiful Bill is running into what may
be trouble or what may be posturing in the United
States Senate. You have that the Supreme Court ladies and
gentlemen of the United States has weighed in very important case.
Speaker 4: Obama is back.
Speaker 7: I don't even know whether we're going to get to Obama, frankly,
because his remarks is sort of what you might expect
from Obama. What do they really mean? Why is he
saying it? Why is he back? Who knows? Let's start
with the Supreme Court very briefly. The conservative majority of
the United States Supreme Court today upheld a state ban
on prohibiting some medical treatments or one might not think
them of them mistreatments procedures for transgender youth, shielding similar
laws in about twenty other states. It was a six
to three decision. Chief Justice John Roberts acknowledged the fierce
scientific and policy debates about the safety, efficacy, and propriety
of medical treatments in an evolving field. He acknowledged basically
the ideological warfare that has been going on with the
Democrats insistence that minor children be subject to be subjective
to mutilations. Sonya Sotomayorda was so upset about the decision
she closed her dissent what she read aloud from the bench, saying,
in sadness, she dissents. In this case, the treatments this
comes from a Tennessee law prohibits doctors who was supposed
to heal people from prescribing puberty blockers, from offering hormone
therapies that were never meant to do this by the way,
or performing surgeries performing the mutilations to treat the psychological
distresses caused by what we know as gender dysphoria. The
case involved a doctor and three families who sued to
challenge the Tennessee law that prohibited these things. They said
it was discriminatory, and today the Supreme Court ruled, no,
this is the way it is. A government judge. A
federal judge yesterday blocked the State Department of the United
States of America from extending a Donald Trump executive order
that will prohibit playing this game of gender on United
States passports.
Speaker 4: Judge Julia Kobeck.
Speaker 7: Extended the order preventing the enforcement of a policy that
would require all identification documents to indicate the sex that
a person was born with on the passport. The lawsuit
against this policy presented was raised by people like the
a c l U, the a c l U of Massachusetts,
and a private law firm Covington and Burling l l P.
And the judge ruled back earlier that Donald Trump's administration
moved this direction because they were motivated by impermissible animis,
which to me is just ridiculous. From the beginning of
time as we knew it, when people started defining themselves
man and woman. This was, of course, how the entire
societal structures.
Speaker 4: Were built for millennia.
Speaker 7: All of a sudden you had the real animus, which
is the ann against biological science, the animus against of course,
a religious point of view, and believe me, on the
left they are hostile to it. The God actually created man,
God actually created woman in his own image, and so
let's just pretend that men can be girls, that girls
can be men, and go from there. Joe Biden, in
siding with the ideological left, allowed the United States past
ports to become fodder in this this game of gender.
And of course that's not viewed upon by this judge
or any of these other leftist judges as being a
move of animists. It certainly is and was a move
of animus. They had animus toward societal norms that have
been the tradition of mankind. Since there was a mankind,
they view it with animus, and so they thumb their
nose at it, and it was okay for that administration
to act with animis to say no and regardless of
what you think, we're going to force and impose this
view on you. But when President Trump and his administration says,
you know what, no, we're going to follow biological science,
We're going to follow we're going to follow common sense.
You can play these gender games with yourselves if you like,
but when it comes to official government documents, no you can't.
And that is viewed by this liberal judge as having animus.
Impermissible animis what is the impermissible animist too? It's too
liberal ideology which they think should be binding on every
because they believe it, it has become their religion. So
those are two cases that we see in the gender
wars today, wars that are unnecessary, which brings me to
Iran in a curious way. I have a question for
those of you. It's a rhetorical question, of course, but
I want to know, have we been fooled for decades
about Iran? Have we been fooled? Have we been fed
fake news for decades about Iran's military strength. As long
as I can remember, we were treated in.
Speaker 4: The news media's.
Speaker 7: Not just American news media, but worldwide with the impression
that Iran's military capabilities were such that if if a
war ever erupted with Iran, there would be terrible consequences
that in fact it might Iran's response to any thing
a war would be so horrific on its neighbors on
the world that we could spiral quickly into a world
war because Iran's military was absolutely top notch. Many of
us are old enough to remember the same thing, the
same impressions about the about Iraq's military back before Gulf
War One. Carlos, you don't remember Gulf War one, you were,
you were probably a twinkle in your mommy's eyes. But
before Golf War, Gulf War one, where the world was
told that the Iraqs military was so lethal that any
attempts to topple the government of Saddam Hussein, any attempt
to take on Iraq's military would result in absolute disaster.
And then when they provoked the United States, under the
auspices of then General Colin Powell Bush forty one, we
went in there and within six or seven days Iraq's
military was totally decimated, to the point that the United
States did something I think was a mistake, and we
let them go. They were what was left of their
military forces were running in the desert. We could have
taken out the entire Iraqi military then and there and
caused Saddam Hussein to be taken out of power, but
we were oh, no, no, no, that's too much. We
won let them let them go, let them go, let
them go. There we proved our point and we did
not take them out. They came back, and hence we
had to have Gulf War II with after the nine
eleven attacks terrorist attacks. We're very concerned about weapons of
mass destruction. They say it's a whole story. They say
Bush lied about them, even though Iran may have hidden
all of that material in Syria and so many anyway,
we let them go. They came back. So my question is,
have we been fed the same lies about Iran what
Israel has done in a manner of yes, yes.
Speaker 1: Sir, yeah, I don't know nothing about all this, but
it's the way you say it. It sounds like a
visuous cycle, you know, like a oh, yes, they're going
to stop and they'n out of nowhere. Boom, they're back
and they have like something new or something they weren't
telling people about, you.
Speaker 4: Know, mm hmmm, Well that's what happened with Iraq. Now
here's the thing with Iran.
Speaker 7: Iran has been resusted yesterday, at war with the United
States of Cold War for forty years. And this whole
forty years, we've been hearing about how formidable the military
of Iran is. Right now, Iran is in a total blackout.
The Israeli military has killed their top military commanders. Think
about this. Think about if we declared war on a nation,
or if a nation struck us, and the first night
of the war they wipe out our senior military leadership.
Speaker 4: It's almost unheard of. It's almost unheard of.
Speaker 7: Israel head. So my question is, and I'd be interested
to know what some of you think about it. You
can email me, catch me up on Twitter, we can,
we'll take phone calls on the Saturday Show. But have
we been overrating around all these years?
Speaker 4: Now?
Speaker 7: President Trump asked Iran, Hey, you guys need to con
you need to unconditionally surrender. They're griping, I don't know,
blah blah blah, blah blah. Where if you dare touch us,
we're gonna We're gonna attack the United States. By the way,
the president's doom day plane was moved from Louisiana up
to Maryland. You know what, the doomsday plane is special
air force plane that can withstand a nuclear blast.
Speaker 1: There be something that we're talking about.
Speaker 7: It's a big plane, it's a yeah, it's a bee.
It's a badass plane. That's to be American badass plane.
And so there's a lot of speculation about that. Maybe whatever.
But the Iranian government has now flown some jets into Oman,
including what may be their presidential jet. People are wondering
whether they're whether the leadership is fleeing.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 7: I don't think anyone knows for certain what's going on there.
But I know one thing. All of a sudden, Iran
is not looking like the big tough guy that everybody
thought that they were. Now maybe maybe they'll mount a comeback.
I am not a military expert. I'm not pretending to
be a military expert. I am just an observer, and
from what I observe, the big bad wolf Iran so
far isn't showing up to the party with a big,
bad wolf appetite. Now that can change. But I just
wonder if we were sold. Was the world sold a
bill of goods about Iran? James Golden snur.

then brag about it. James Goldin's thirdly Princess Diana, of course,
and Lady Benedict, who those of you in the program
heard from the other day on Saturday. We've been chatting
throughout on text the show, and I just want to
read you some of the analysis. Princess Diana says that
Iran was formidable until Israel took them out on a
night one. Now they are cartoons. The problem was that
the Iranians aren't in the military, was frozen in the
nineteen eighties military development due to lack of freedom. Israel
popped them like a Sioux. Fle says, you cannot underestimate
the skill of Israel and ruining them their plan plus
US support, Iran was outsmarted, out played, out gunned. They
were destroyed by Israel and US superiority militarily. And she
wants to say that around put most of their eggs
in deploying terror in the deploying terror elsewhere basket, and
apparently they didn't expect a direct assault on their home territory.
I asked her if she thinks regime change is now inevitable.
She says that's an open question. Iranian people, empowered thanks Elon,
will determine that likely but not certain. And the last
time Iran was under attack was during the Iran Iraq
War from nineteen eighty to nineteen eighty eight. That's when
they stopped developing militarily. They were under Obama's protection after all. Yes, now,
I would just add, by the way, we have some
calls going to try to get to them on rapid phones.
But I have a few other things that I want
to do while is rarely's doing brilliant things militarily figuring
out how they can get to the highest echelunge of
their enemy's government. The attacks that they did, the pager attacks,
still some of the most brilliant war strategy ever dealing
with terrorism. And you see Israel. What are we doing
in the United States military? Well, our Secretary of Defense
was on Capitol Hill for a hearing today, and let's
just drop in with a few things. Let's start with
number eleven, Senator Jackie Rosen with Defense Secretary Hegseeth.
Speaker 3: I love the military, I served alongside my whole life.
So I'm worried about you tainting it.
Speaker 10: Have you given the order? Have you given the order
that they can use lethal force against Onnor? I want
the answer to be no. Please tell me.
Speaker 5: It's no.
Speaker 10: Have you given the.
Speaker 2: Order, Senator, I'd be careful what you read in books
and believing it except for the Bible. Oh my god.
Speaker 7: That was Actually that wasn't Jackie Rosen, that was Slotkin.
Let's go to thirteen. Here's another excerpt from that hearing.
Speaker 11: Influenced personnel decisions in your department.
Speaker 4: Yes or no, I believe your time is up, Senator.
Speaker 11: Oh, it is not up to you to tell me
when my time is up. Well the time and I
am going to say, mister secretary, you're either feckless or complicit.
You're not in control of your department. You're just unseious.
It is shocking you're not combating anti semitism within your ranks.
It's a digit dangerous and pivotal time in our nation's history.
Thank you, mister Chairman. I yield back, and I don't
appreciate the smirk.
Speaker 3: Sir.
Speaker 11: You are the Secretary of Defense.
Speaker 4: The time of the General.
Speaker 7: Your time was up, lady. That was Jackie Rosan. Fourteen.
Senator Herono from her oh Man.
Speaker 12: From Hawaii, And I'm going to ask you once again
to shoe peaceful protesters in the legs. Would you carry
out such an order from the President, Senator.
Speaker 4: As I've said before, of course.
Speaker 6: I reject the premise of your question and the characterization
that I would be given or are given several orders.
Speaker 4: It's all meant to attempt to smear the commandit chief.
Speaker 12: Considering that the president and his first term actually ordered
such a thing. It is not a premise that you
can reject. He can order it. Do the same thing.
So you're again, oh, I think you would just follow
what the President wants you to do.
Speaker 4: Let's face it, okay. President.
Speaker 7: By the way, as today about around the situation in
Iran outside of the White House, the background noise that
you will hear they put up the most incredibly huge
American flag in front of the White House. Donald Trump
paid for all us out of his own pocket's beautifulnesses
is cut one. You'll hear background noises that this was
still going on going up. But the President took questions
from reporters. Here's one from CNN, and this is how
it went.
Speaker 4: The US response to who you went.
Speaker 13: Look fake?
Speaker 12: Unfortunately nobody watches Is anybody watching CNN?
Speaker 3: Now there's I haven't seen it in a long time.
Speaker 10: So some of your supporters are wary of the US
getting involved in another or at all any legs.
Speaker 3: Do you ever ask a positive question here?
Speaker 4: My supporters are more in love with me today.
Speaker 1: And I'm in love with them more than they were
even at election time where we had a total.
Speaker 4: Landslide.
Speaker 14: We had, you know, we won all seven swing Stats
and CNN report that we.
Speaker 7: Won all seven out of seven, which everyone said would
will be almost impossible.
Speaker 4: We won by millions of votes. We won two.
Speaker 13: Thousand, seven hundred and fifty districts versus five hundred and
five districts.
Speaker 4: Think of that, two thousand and seven hundred and fifty.
Speaker 11: Versus five hundred and five and CNN.
Speaker 4: I think what she might be alluding to.
Speaker 7: And CNN yeah, yeah, okay, but CNN does have as
good points. Uh if depending on how you view the
polling news, there's one that's a danger signal. Well, I'll
get into that in a minute. CNN actually polled on
this around. By the way, this question that the C
and reporter asked, you can see headlines.
Speaker 4: There's such dissension, dessension in the base. There's base.
Speaker 7: If he goes to run, if we do anything in around,
it's over the base. The base and who they are
citing are either very well known media commentators and politicians,
but commentators and politicians are not the base. Let's check
in with seeing the names Harry Eton, who did they
have polling on this business with Iraq cut nine? And
this is what the polling reveals.
Speaker 15: And overall, I feel like there's more support for Donald
Trump's positions than is comically acknowledged opposer Iran getting a
nuclear weapon. I mean, look at this, seventy nine percent
of adults agree on that they agree with Donald Trump
and Ron cannot get a nuclear weapon, eighty three percent
of Republicans, seventy nine percent of Independence, seventy nine percent
of Democrats. When you get seventy nine percent of Democrats
and eighty three percent of Republicans agreeing on anything, you
know that that position is the very clear majority in
this country. And so the American public is with Donald Trump.
They definitely opposed in Ran getting nuclear weapons.
Speaker 5: So this is a nuance here. But you know, Trump
and Natanyajoe both arguing that Ron is close to being
capable of making a nuclear weapon. If that is the case,
what is the feeling of Americans as to whether the
United States should get involved in this conflict, right, if.
Speaker 15: You buy Donald Trump's theory of the case. And I
think that's important to note. This is polling from April
for Rans trying to make a nuclear weas and look
at this overall, you get the slight plurality, I mean
it's within the margin amber, but the slight plurality of
Americans actually favor US air strikes compared to forty seven
percent of posing it. Now here's the other Nuggetill note, right,
there's been a lot of talk online and on social
media and in podcasts of a divide within the Republican ranks.
But here on this question if Iran's trying to make
a nuclear up and look at that, sixty nine percent
of Republicans, the clear vast majority of Republicans favor US
air strikes on Oran on their nuclear facilities. But there
is this substantial minority twenty seven percent, who oppose such
an idea. So it's not surprising you're hearing those other
voices Besides Donald Trump out there, there are plenty of
them in the Republican.
Speaker 4: Ranks who oppose striking the US striking.
Speaker 15: Iran if they're trying to make a nuclear weapon. But
the clear majority, The clear majority of Republicans are with
Donald Trump. If in fact Iran is trying to make
nuclear weapons, they do in fact potentially favor US air strikes.
Speaker 7: All right, now, so we take the good news. Now,
I don't play something else this, my friends will get mean.
We can't do the whole thing. We'll just cut twenty six.
Can only do a few moments of it, but you'll
get the drift just right into it.
Speaker 5: Please, where is support for this megabill?
Speaker 14: You know, I'm really really surprised when I look at
polling data.
Speaker 15: I look at it every day, but the amount of
disapproval for this bill, Holy cow, my goodness, gracious. And
you know you mentioned the KFF Paul. We're talking about
twenty nine points underwater on the net favorable rating. But
that matches to Quinnipiac University Poul from last week when
it was twenty six points underwater.
Speaker 14: Oh my god, you need Greg lugain Is to get
that far underwater. And I mean, we're talking about a
negative forty one net favorability rating among independents in the
center of the electorate. You rarely ever see pieces of
legislation or proposed pieces of legislation as I'm popular as this,
but here you see it in two poles, twenty six
points underwater and twenty nine points underwater.
Speaker 7: No good, All right, big beautiful Bell needs some work, guys,
to explain what's going on now? The Sin and the
House are at odds. I don't have enough time to
deal with that today. We'll get into it. The Senate
has cut back the assault cap that the New York
Liberal Republicans want in the Senate, in an astounding move,
has said the Medicaid cuts have to be deeper than
even the House wanted, and even it is, this thing
is turning into it. A lot of this could be
posturing to end up with a solution that passes both.
But we'll get into that. I want to take a
break because I want to get this on telephone calls.

I aboorded was meant to go on and cure cancer.
But maybe all of the infertile women who are spending
tens of thousands of dollars in all these medical resources
to try to have kids that they clearly aren't meant

be trying to cure cancer or do something meaningful with

Speaker 2: James Golden Bose nerdly presents rapid phones.
Speaker 7: Well, we're gonna add to the telephones today. Donna in
Jamaica Queens has been holding on Donna, how are you hi?
Speaker 3: James? I love your show. I listened all the time,
and I think, and this is my personal opinion that
I ran is I think that they're I think that
that that they're just they're fooling everybody. The years, everybody
thought that they were a great power, and all of
a sudden we bomb them or something, and there's a
blackout there that tells you something, that tells you that
they don't have the power that they think they have.
This is my personal opinion for what it's worth. And
unfortunately the only way we know is if we would
go in and bomb them, which I don't know if
that's the why the things do but I think they're
I think they're fooling. I really do.
Speaker 7: Well, let me ask you a question. You just raised
an interesting point. Let me ask you about this. If
we did bomb them, as you said, if we got
engaged and with with Israel, if we did a joint
campaign to take out the remember the remaining underground nuclear
facilities that are in ran, would you object to it
or do you think it would be the right thing
to do?
Speaker 3: Now? Would be the right thing to do, because I'm
tired of their telling us how powerful they are, and
I don't think they are. I think that they're just
their plenty of game with us, and they know it,
and they've been doing it for forty years, and it's
time to stop it.
Speaker 4: It it's time to stop it. Donald.
Speaker 7: Thank you for your kind words. It's so good to
hear from you. Appreciate it. Let's go to New Jersey.
And check in with Linda. Linda, how are you, hey, James.
Speaker 13: I'm doing pretty good. I'd like to say the Iyotola
has been saying death to Israel and death to Americans.
He's been saying it for decades, and we have to
take up their nukes, unfortunately, but it's got to be done.
No boots on the ground though. And I would also
like to say, Curdish Lee, we're for New York City
mayor because he has no kills shelters for people and animals.
Speaker 7: Oh, very nice, Linda, thank you for the call. Let's
run up to Connecticut and check in with Annie. Annie's
calling from Connecticut. How are you Annie?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 7: Annie dropped out there. Well, you know what we're gonna
do with the remaining moments that we have left. There
is one other thing that I would like you to
hear if we have time. I'm just looking for it
right now.
Speaker 4: Do we have time?
Speaker 7: We have just a little bit of time, yes, I know.
I wanted to play the Whoopee Goldberg segment from the
View Today where she's claiming claiming that black people in
America have it just as bad as in Iran.
Speaker 4: Let's just start it glow.
Speaker 10: But Let's just remember too, the Iranians literally throw gay
people off of buildings.
Speaker 3: They don't assert the basic humans. Here's the thing.
Speaker 8: Let's not let's not do that.
Speaker 12: Let's not do that, because if we start.
Speaker 3: With that, we have we have been known in this
country to.
Speaker 4: Tie gay folks to.
Speaker 10: The car where hey, no, but word your rhyme.
Speaker 12: There's another thing hanging black people.
Speaker 2: So it is not even the same.
Speaker 11: I couldn't step No, that's not what you mean to say.
Speaker 4: It is the same.
Speaker 15: No, it's not the year twenty twenty five the United
States is nothing like if I stepped foot wearing this.
Speaker 7: Young Let me just say this. The woman says that
in Iran, and this, by the way, happens in other countries,
they sol gay people of the buildity. That is a
state sponsored, a state mandate. They don't permit homosexuality. The
state doesn't. So she conflates that with some horrible incidents,
that is that have happened here from wicked, horrible individuals.
The state in the United sis States has never sanctioned
that kind of or doesn't sanction that kind of action
toward anyone because of their sexual preference. It's a horrible, horrible,
thing she said there, and then she goes on to say, well,
and they hang black people. Well, yes, folks, let's face facts.
The Democrat Party, which she continues to advocate and promote,
was the party of the lynchings. They were the party
of racial hatred in America. Thankfully, the Democrats are now
designed to running the digital plantation rather than the real plantations. Yes,
they still oppress black people in America, but they don't
lynch them in public anymore the way they used to.
Speaker 4: So whoopee.
Speaker 7: Stop trying to compare the United States of America with Iran. Please,
I don't even know how the executives over there to
these shows or watch the They probably don't watch them.
I mean, would you if you we gotta go. May
God bless protect each and every single one of you,
your families, your loved ones. Love and gratitude for your
