When you’re sending Tommy Tuberville and Markwayne Mullin to the United States Senate, something tells me these people aren’t concerned about nuclear launch codes.

What America's most eminent psychiatric experts have warned about Donald Trump for a decade has now come to pass: The US president is a rapidly deteriorating, apocalyptically dangerous, severely psychotic and anti-social personality disordered individual who must be contained and removed from power pronto. He has never been so close to ordering genocide and perhaps nuclear war against one of the world's oldest and greatest civilizations, the Persian.

To channel John Kerry's famous line before a Senate Committee investigating the Vietnam War: Who is willing to be the last person to die in a nuclear conflagration based on the mistake of electing psychopath Donald Trump as president -- twice?

Thank you gentlemen, you are so wonderful. Somehow despite the insanity, you make me feel more at ease.

It is absurd to engage Trump and his Republican martinets in a sophistical argument over war crimes -- regarding which Iranian targets would be acceptable by deeming them more military than civilian, when his war of aggression against Iran, which posed no imminent threat to the US, is itself a violation of international law and a war against humanity.

Not MAGA, REPUBLICAN. There has been no delineation between MAGA and Republican since 2015.

I love this! I follow Steve Schmidt and listen to him every day. I really appreciate the way he speaks. Waj asking him to come on your broadcast was genius! He is speaking in the same voice. I really enjoyed this broadcast.

Thanks guys. Excellent discussion. I disagree with Steve on just one thing: on January 20th, 2029, after our new Dem president has been sworn in and Donald Trump leaves the White House for the last time, I want to see him immediately taken into custody and jailed, pending criminal investigation for treason, fraud and bribery against the People of the United States. No mercy or bail for that evil crook. I will not breathe normally again until the prison door clangs shut on Dumpty’s sorry arse. (Of course, if he croaks before that, disregard.)

As serious as this discussion was, .... I "enjoyed" it, .... because I enjoy intelligence and right against wrong. Very stimulating conversation on this perilous day -- Tuesday, so we're also having elections today, Shawn Harris, to fill Marge's seat.

I've seen Waj before, but not on his own podcast. I believe he said he had gone to a Catholic school? (did I mishear?, cuz he has a Muslim name). And he is an excellent voice imitator!! Will be a long night for me, as I worry about the lives of young soldiers, being sacrificed for trump's EGO. Take trump very seriously!, ... not because he has a genius mind, but because he's has an unsound mind, and can be swayed by the smallest bit of flattery. For anyone's sake, I hope he remains a TACO, and chickens out at last minute, and that hegseth is locked in a closet, drunk, with no way to try to sway trump to bomb, bomb, bomb Iran.

Trump's days are numbered. After the November election that will give both houses to Dems, he will be impeached and removed and subsequently jailed after January 2029 under the next Dem president despite vance's pardon for federal crimes but meanwhile the STATES will have a free shot at his hide and money (and that of his family)..

Do we the people believe there will be free and fair elections? So many seem to assume this will happen; others think, as I do, trump will declare a crisis allowing him to execute an executive order to take over the elections and/or place massive military at the polls or come up with some other stunt. All this is contingent upon trump remaining in power during this Iran crisis in which he is contemplating war crimes in the next hour. How much more or less dangerous do people think jd vance is? I remain aghast at the incompetence of democrats and the cowardice and depravity of republicans.

Thank you for this. Still, with all of the chatter from corporate media, I’m convinced that Jimmy Kimmel doing β€œman on the street” interviews would find most couldn’t point to Israel nor Iran on a map.

We need an elephant in the room tranquilizer to be administered ASAP to the cold blooded mass murderer and madman who is the great pretender if there ever was one. As I write this we only have 2 hrs and 10 minutes for someone with some any shred of sense to lull this maniacal person to sleep for a while(till the 2026 midterms would be nice) till he returns to some semblance of reality. If he goes and hits the button, Iran's ally, Russia, will retaliate for them gladly and nuke Israel and the US.

We have a madman like Nero fiddling in the flames, but no roof he can stand on as he's already torn 1/2 the White House down while the Horsemen of the Apocalypse are egged on cuz these fools think they are going be taken out of action. Hey! Jesus, can you just rapture these assholes outta here like they are fantasizing of in a blink of an eye and actually save the world???

8:21 p.m. ET. Thank you Jesus! Some twisted minds were moved by the better angels you sent by light speed just like the starlight that blinks in surprise and twinks at us, in little glimpses from the other side. Whoo.

You are too top leaders on Substack. And you actually both agree on a huge amount and it is wonderful to see both. They be here.

Elizabeth πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦'s avatar

Ceasefire on both sides declared. This can NEVER happen again NEVER

Thank you gentlemen for all you do, so very glad to see you with Waj Steve, you are both so terrific!

Exciting discussion. A hint of future collaborations, when we walk free in January 2029. Left and center-right. The combination is powerful. The common denominator? Honesty and love of country. This is what success looks like.
