Multiple IRGC assassinations in Iran. At least one attack with at least two IRGC taken down on surveillance video.

It's on now, apparently. Good luck, Iranian people. Tousi names names of IRGC baddies getting whacked, and what they did. Transcript linked below video.

Tucker Carlson had an expletive-filled kiss off to Donald Trump as he continues to burn bridges within the White House over the Iran War. The former Fox News anchor has been one of most public critics from the right of Trump's foreign policy, coming to a head with the strikes on Tehran. Carlson, appearing on the Jack Neel Podcast, accused Trump of feigning strength by using empty threats against Iran as the war continued on. 'He tried to posture his way out of it,' Carlson said of the President after the initial killing of Ayatollah Khomeini didn't force Iran's surrender....

"You Can't Be A Slave To A Foreign Power— STOP!"TRANSCRIPT SUMMARYThe speakers argue that President Trump recognized the risks of escalating conflict with Iran but responded with public threats rather than a clear military strategy. They claim this made him appear weak, comparing his behavior to someone who boasts instead of acting decisively. Tucker Carlson is quoted criticizing Trump for being overly influenced by others, particularly Israel, and expressing regret for previously promoting Trump based on expectations he now believes were incorrect.The discussion praises Tucker Carlson as an influential commentator and argues that some of his remarks have been taken...

It’s not Israel. It’s not even Iran. Look closer to home. At this point, everyone is familiar with the 14 points of the Memorandum of Understanding between President Trump and remnants of Iran’s power structure. The document appears to use careful, ambiguous diplomatic language, but it actually serves as a raw political instrument. To decipher its true meaning, one must strip away the mannerly phrasing and read it in the plain political lexicon — the language of power, elections, and survival. Article 1 states that midterm elections in America will take place in November 2026. Article 2 specifies that they...

Britta | NoSoup4Knowles @nosoup4knowles: Tucker Carlson claims he doesn't want a violent revolution while simultaneously telling Americans "there's no way for them to nonviolently change the system" Jun 12, 2026 https://x.com/nosoup4knowles/status/2065430772329091266 At the time, the lying Tucker Carlson invented stuff about Bongino too.

This article, “The Powerhouse of Perception” by Ben-Dror Yemini, argues that military strength alone does not determine geopolitical outcomes; public opinion, narratives, and information influence are also forms of power. (ynet) Main points The author notes the huge military gap between the United States and Iran, but argues that weaker actors can still wield significant influence through determination, public support, asymmetric capabilities, and control over strategic chokepoints. He warns against assuming that a short military campaign could easily force Iran to capitulate. (ynet) A central theme is that Israel and the U.S. are losing the battle for international public opinion....

A CSPAN caller who said he voted for President Donald Trump three times delivered a shocking takedown of the president Saturday on Washington Journal. The caller, who identified as Thomas from Hawaii, told host Taylor Popielarz that he now regrets his votes for Trump. “It’s hard for me to say this,” Thomas said. “But I think if I can open up about it in public that it might help others. I wanted to believe Trump was the real deal for a long time — even though I had doubts because I knew enough about his business history to think otherwise....

Tucker Carlson just lobbed a rhetorical grenade at Sen. Ted Cruz, telling a New York Times podcast audience that the Texas Republican is "more morally repulsive" than white-nationalist influencer Nick Fuentes. The comments, which surfaced over the weekend, instantly recharged old arguments inside the GOP over Israel, the Iran war and who poses the bigger danger to the party’s future. Cruz wasted little time firing back on social media, turning what started as a policy beef into an unmistakably personal feud. NYT interview: Carlson singles out Cruz On The New York Times podcast "The Interview," host Lulu Garcia-Navarro put Carlson...

I’m not normally a fan of the New York Times. But I find myself being amazed by Lulu Garcia-Navarro, who yesterday published an exhausting, two-hour long interview with Tucker Carlson. She’s the co-host of a Times’ column called “The Interview.” IMHO, her interview with Tucker Carlson was disturbingly revealing. Richard’s Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber. Put together, it is a searing indictment of a man who presumably is super-intelligent and who has gone down the rabbit hole of delusion and hate. And I take it...

A round of layoffs is underway at The Daily Wire, Barrett Media has confirmed. The first reports surfaced on Friday afternoon. Political reporter Cameron Arcand took to social media to share that he was included in the round of layoffs enacted. “I was impacted by layoffs today at The Daily Wire, so I am looking for opportunities in journalism/communications here in D.C.,” wrote Arcand. In a statement, The Daily Wire confirmed it was undergoing a round of layoffs. “Today, The Daily Wire made a difficult decision to restructure the organization, which included layoffs to a number of teams,” a company...

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson apologized on Monday for campaigning for President Donald Trump, declaring that he would be “tormented” by the decision “for a long time” to come. During an interview with his brother Buckley Carlson – a Republican Party operative who previously wrote speeches for Trump – Carlson expressed regret for having publicly supported the president, who has repeatedly attacked him in recent months.

Loopy Tucker being tucker (Video)

A lot of us have been wondering if and when Trump would slap down Tucker Carlson. Tucker has been taking potshots—no, firing broadsides—at Trump's policies and the core beliefs of almost every conservative for most of his time as a podcaster. He has essentially called anybody who supports Israel demonic, while implicitly supporting the expansion of Sharia law into the West. He has backstabbed Trump, tried to destroy him and his base, and provided aid and comfort to our enemies. Hasn't Trump noticed? He has... Trump posted a link to Douglas Murray's piece, which absolutely eviscerated Tucker, within about half...

In politics, it is often the people who you think have your back who end up stabbing you there. Nobody knows that better than Donald Trump, who has been stabbed in the back more times than Julius Caesar — yet still survived. While accusing everyone else of being obsessed with Israel, Carlson has obsessed about nothing else. While saying “We’re not allowed to talk about Jews,” he has talked about nothing but Jews. This obsession has culminated in a total derangement over the president’s Iran policy. Carlson and other people in the right-wing podcast sphere pretend to be confused by...

Donald Trump's former counterintelligence official blamed Israel for providing the US with faulty intelligence in the lead-up to the war with Iran and said the president should have continued negotiating with Tehran. Joe Kent, the former Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, said in his resignation letter Tuesday that Iran posed no imminent threat and the war was driven by pressure from Israel. 'Key decision makers were not allowed to express their opinions. There wasn't a robust debate,' Kent told Tucker Carlson on Wednesday. Kent argued that Trump should have created a communication backchannel with Iran and allow Israel to...

Week Three is underway. Every goatherd on the planet knows that the way to beat America is simply to outlast her: "We have all the time," as I quoted yesterday. What is the precise point at which a swift surgical strike (which the US can do) becomes a war of attrition (which the US always loses)? Well, you don't want to be typing "Week Twenty-Three is underway..." Given all the dissent in our comments section, I thought today I would pose a few thought experiments. "I'm just asking questions," as Tucker likes to say: ~First, for the two-points-in-Iowa crowd, is...

Tucker Carlson is warning that the CIA has been spying on him and that he is under investigation for his admitted contacts with the Iranian regime. WOW — Tucker Carlson reveals he is facing a criminal referral by the federal government for "talking to people in Iran before the war"Tucker was in the White House multiple times lobbying President Trump against action there.Who were these "people in Iran" he was talking to — it is left unsaid in this video https://t.co/33xWuXGjue— Jon Levine (@LevineJonathan) March 15, 2026Hmm. This brings up a lot of interesting questions, not the least of which...

By possibly telling the Iranians that President Trump did NOT want to attack Iran, did that give Iranian officials the confidence they could get together for a big meeting, the meeting in which the Ayatollah and other Iranian bigwigs got hit with a massive bombing resulting in the termination of the Ayatollah and many/most at the top including the severe wounding/death of the Son of the Ayatollah aka the Cardboard Ayatollah?Here is more detail of that scenario:This photo is hilarious in hindsight.Trump knew Tucker was talking to Iran.So he invites him to the Oval Office before the strike… knowing Tucker...

Tucker Carlson is not a good friend. Just a few years ago, when the podcaster was pretending to be friends with President Trump, Carlson was caught privately saying of Trump: “I hate him passionately.” In September, another person whom Carlson claimed to be friends with — Charlie Kirk — was shot dead. Carlson used the aftermath of his friend’s assassination not to demand that the suspect in the shooting be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. He didn’t seize the moment to insist that perhaps the radical left dial down its hateful rhetoric against conservatives and Republicans. Nor...
