Episode description

Colonel Douglas Macgregor joins Jimmy to analyze the chaotic Iran ceasefire negotiations, noting that Trump initially appeared to accept Iran's humiliating 10-point plan (including U.S. troop withdrawal, reparations, and surrender of the Strait of Hormuz) before his press secretary responded to the backlash by claiming that plan was "literally thrown in the garbage."

Macgregor explains that Trump wants to end the war but is trapped by Israeli interests, with Netanyahu's phone call scuttling the inclusion of Lebanon in the ceasefire—proving Israel calls the shots. He warns that Iran holds the strategic initiative, cannot be conquered, and that the rest of the world is moving away from the U.S., with France leading 15 countries to negotiate directly with Iran for Hormuz access without Washington.

Plus segments on the delusional MAGA personalities pushing the Iran ceasefire as a big win for Trump, Trump's own administration's confusion about what, precisely, is in the ceasefire agreement, the battles raging across the country against data centers and Trump's recent major losses in court.

Also featuring Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano!
