Our editor-in-chief Ron Filipkowski puts it best. Inflation is up, prices are rising, interest rates are up, GDP is down, we are going to war with Iran. But the good news is Donald Trump had two new flagpoles put up at the White House yesterday, and that's what he was bragging about. Have you seen these gigantic polls on the North and South Lawn of the White House?

Donald Trump held a press conference where he used construction workers as props to talk about the gigantic flagpoles he's putting in front and the back of the White House, which looks like a total eyesore. And as one commentator puts it, whether there is a new Mideast war or not is based on the whims of an attention-seeking toddler. So Donald Trump is asked,

while he has these construction workers behind him about war with Iran. And Donald Trump's response is, maybe I do it. Maybe I don't do it. Maybe I don't even know. Maybe I'm going to do it. Maybe I don't. I don't even know. Here, play this clip. Will you strike the Iranian nuclear component? And what time exactly, sir? Sir, would you strike it? Would

Would you please inform us so we can be there and watch? I mean, you don't know that I'm going to even do it. You don't know. I may do it. I may not do it. I mean, nobody knows what I'm going to do. I can't even believe that is a real clip that I am showing you. Donald Trump then posts great poll numbers for Trump. And then maybe he thinks poll numbers are polls, like actual physical polls going up. My polls are going up.

And he's talking about the gigantic flag polls because all of his polls are going down, down, down. The worst polling in American presidential history, essentially, whether it's Quinnipiac, whether it's YouGov, whether it's APNORC or even Fox. Donald Trump's polling is like the worst ever polling.

While he's putting flagpoles up, we also learned that the U.S. is moving its military assets into the Middle East, making them vulnerable to Iranian attack. The U.S. military has moved some aircraft and ships from bases in the Middle East that may be vulnerable to any potential Iranian attacks, two sources say, as Trump is, quote, getting comfortable with taking

Strikes on Iranian nuclear facility sources say, and they say that he's approved the strikes, but he's still waiting to give the order. But he's approved, in theory, the strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities using American planes. Now, Donald Trump was talking about war with Iran at a bizarre press conference he held yesterday with the Juventus press.

Italian football club who was there for the FIFA games. That's why they were in the United States. I'm not sure why they were in the Oval Office while Donald Trump was talking about war with Iran with the Juventus football club behind him because he's an attention-seeking toddler. No offense to attention-seeking toddlers, but

Then Donald Trump lies and claims that the Iranians were begging to take a visit to the White House, which Iran then denied and said, we definitely do not want to be at the White House. Donald Trump is an absolute liar. Here's Donald Trump saying that Iran wants to be at the White House with Juventus behind him. Play this clip. In the end, they decided not to do it. And now they wish they did it.

And they want to meet, but it's a little late to meet, but they want to meet and they want to come to the White House. So they can come to the White House. So we'll see. I may do that.

But it's a shame it wasn't, could have been done the easy way. Now, as you know by now, Donald Trump fled the G7 on Monday. He was not there for the working session on Tuesday. He missed key meetings with President Zelensky of Ukraine, Prime Minister Modi of India, President Claudia Scheinbaum of Mexico.

After I release this video that you're watching, I'm going to do another video on how furious India is with Donald Trump because he keeps lying and making up that he negotiated the ceasefire and mediated it between India and Pakistan. But let me show you here Prime Minister Modi speaking with French President Emmanuel Macron.

mocking Donald Trump for doing social media posts about war and things like that. Modi goes to the French president. Nowadays, I hear you fight on Twitter. Here, watch this. Do you see them laughing at the United States? Trump is quite literally the laughingstock. Here's more photos that Donald Trump and others have been posting about his flagpole.

Well, you know, Donald Trump, nice that you're talking about flagpoles in front of the White House. Again, looks like a complete and utter eyesore. You know what Donald Trump did not address? Two soldiers deployed in the Middle East died in the past 48 hours. OK, and Donald Trump has not spoken about that at all. But why would he?

Donald Trump hasn't spoken about the four U.S. soldiers who died in Lithuania. The Lithuanian government gave them a respectful and solemn send-off. Donald Trump totally ignored it because he says if he doesn't address it, he could just pretend it never happened.

Two United States soldiers died at the border. One lady died as a result of an Abrams tank falling on her following the military parade. Dozens of Americans have died in disastrous storms in the past two months. Donald Trump has not acknowledged any of that. He just thinks if he ignores the suffering and pretends it's not happening, then it will just go away. What?

Where do we hear that? Oh, COVID. Like a miracle, it will all just go away. Just pretend the problems aren't real. Don't effectuate your solemn duty as the president to address these things. You remember the clip I showed you, right? Two days ago where Donald Trump was asked, hey, are you going to call Trump?

Governor Walz of Minnesota, who was a target of the assassin in Minnesota and who was close friends with the state representative, the speaker who got killed by the assassin, as did her husband.

Minnesota's going through a lot, right? So Trump was asked, hey, you're going to call Governor Walz? And Trump's like, why would I call that whack job? He's a wacko. Why would I call him? Remember when Trump said this? Play this clip. Have you called the governor yet or been able to speak to any of them? I don't really call him. He appointed this guy to a position.

I think the governor of Minnesota is so whacked out. I'm not calling him. He's a mess. So, you know, I could be nice and call him, but why waste time? Yeah. That's why this individual is unfit to be anywhere near proximity of leadership. Okay. And again, as I've said...

When I started the Midas Touch Network, I'm not a political guy. I've never even viewed these things, oh, Democrat, oh, Republican, oh, liberal, oh, conservative. Let's just view it as human beings and adult behavior and acting mature and acting responsible and behaving like grownups.

Like that behavior right there is sickening. That shouldn't be, oh, Republicans just behave that way or, oh, Democrats. No, that's just sickening freaking behavior. And Donald Trump's behavior is having real world ramifications on our entire economy.

A massive stagflation warning was issued today. The Fed is now predicting a brutal mix for 2025. Inflation up 3%, growth down 1.4%, unemployment up 4.5%. They're holding interest rates steady for now. They expect maybe two interest rates cuts this year, maybe.

But we should have had multiple interest rate cuts right now. Former President Biden was bringing inflation down to 2%, the Fed target. Then Donald Trump declared a trade war against the world. Here's how Jerome Powell, chairman of the Federal Reserve, put it yesterday playing this clip. Changes to trade, immigration, fiscal, and regulatory policies continue to evolve, and their effects on the economy remain uncertain.

The effects of tariffs will depend, among other things, on their ultimate level. Expectations of that level, and thus of the related economic effects, reached a peak in April and have since declined. Even so, increases in tariffs this year are likely to push up prices and weigh on economic activity. The effects on inflation could be short-lived, reflecting a one-time shift in the price level. It's also possible that the inflationary effects could instead be more persistent.

avoiding that outcome will depend on the size of the tariff effects on how long it takes for them to pass through fully into prices and ultimately on keeping longer term inflation expectations well anchored in contrast donald trump bragging about his poll numbers yesterday next to the poll that's why i think he thinks the poll is a poll

Play this clip.

because we can't let that happen. And I've been saying it for 20 years. And that's not a crazy thought by me. I mean, here's Donald Trump who thinks he talks to Hannibal Lecter. Oh, what happened to Alcatraz? Is Alcatraz week done? What about Trump Gaza? Wasn't he going to build all the hotels there? What would have, you know, the,

The things that this guy has said over the past several months that we cover at the Midas Touch Network that no one else does, really. Here he is yelling at a CNN reporter, asking him a question. Play this clip. Supporters are split on the U.S. response to WHO YOU ARE.

CNN. There's a split, though. Fake news. Fortunately, nobody watches. Is anybody watching CNN nowadays? I haven't seen it in a long time.

Some of your supporters are wary of the U.S. getting involved in another foreign law. And some believe that we should support it. Do you ever ask a positive question? My supporters are more in love with me today and I'm in love with them more than they were even at election time. Just so you see how little respect world leaders have for him, just look at the wink right here with Prime Minister Carney and the French President Emmanuel Macron. Play this clip. I think we got a lot done. Really a lot done.

In fact, UK we signed a big trade deal today and we're working on others, but we had just a really great relationship with everybody. It's really nice. I wish I could stay for tomorrow, but...

They understand. While all of that is going on, here's the Donald Trump ICE agents disappearing human beings. What I'm showing you in this video, people showing up to court, trying to do the right thing, going through their lawful process as ICE agents wait for them in court, grab them, rip them apart from their family. This is happening every day, every week.

in the country, thousands of times a day, the fascist United States of America. No wonder people don't want to come here when this is what will happen to you. Play this clip. I'm sorry.
