World leaders are absolutely furious at Donald Trump, from the President of Mexico, to the Prime Minister of Australia, to the Prime Minister of Japan, to Zelensky in Ukraine, to the Pope. I could keep going on, but Donald Trump has betrayed all of our allies over and over again. And we saw, not only did Japan...
cancel a meeting at the White House that was supposed to take place this week regarding defense spending and defense coordination. Both Japan and Australia intentionally and very abruptly decided not to show up at NATO
because they thought if they showed up at NATO, they would be extorted by the United States to try to manipulate and tamper with their own goals and objectives regarding their defense spending. I just want to go through what has gone down with world leaders. First, let me show you what Pope Leo XIV posted regarding Ukraine, right? In the absence of the United States,
being the leader of the free world. Pope Leo XIV is stepping up. He writes the following. He wrote it originally in Ukrainian, and then he translated it in English. I express my closeness to martyred Ukraine, to the children, to the young people, the elderly, and especially to families who mourn their loved ones. I share your sorrow for the prisoners and victims of this senseless war.
The faith of your people is now being put to a difficult test. Believing does not mean having all the answers, but trusting that God is with us and gives us his grace, that he will speak the final word, and that life will triumph over death.
Look, whether you're religious or not religious, I still think that that's a powerful message delivered in a way that Donald Trump would never deliver a message in support of Ukraine. One of the reasons that the world is absolutely furious at Donald Trump as well is his fake and bogus mineral deal with Ukraine. Remember when he was talking about the mineral deal, the mineral deal.
as our editor-in-chief, Ron Filipkowski, explains. So we go through all of this drama, the machinations and posturing with Trump and Vance at the White House, with Zelensky, to get this big minerals deal done. Then as soon as the ink is dry, weak dumbass Donald Trump lets the Russians seize Ukraine's most valuable deposits of rare earth minerals,
while withholding patriot batteries and of course the corporate news in the united states rather spend the entire weekend and every day talking about mandami uh the new york city mayor candidate who's very popular for talking about trying to make things more affordable right the split screen of as our media is attacking mondami but then praising jeff bezos
absurd and offensive wedding in Venice. What our media and while our media was not covering the disastrous budget bill, but our media was not really covering this with any degree of significance. And if it did, it's a headline like the following from The New York Times.
Russia seizes key lithium field in challenge for U.S.-Ukraine minerals deal. In challenge for U.S.-Ukraine minerals deal? As Michael Weiss correctly puts it, if this agreement were serious, the U.S. would do something about helping Ukraine recapture the field or we would have provided Ukraine with the Patriot missiles we were supposed to underlying the deal.
But I guess where a lot of our weapons and missiles are going to is to protect Israel while Donald Trump threatens and extorts the Israeli courts not to prosecute Benjamin Netanyahu or delay the prosecution or else Trump says he will withhold military equipment to Israel.
The United States depleted 15 to 20% of its THAD missile interceptor stockpiles during the 11-day Israel-Iran conflict. Those costs exceeding $800 million. It'll probably be closer to $2 billion when all is said and done. And you know what our allies are realizing as well, how pathetic and how Donald Trump doesn't understand any geopolitical maneuvering, right? I mean, Iran...
is allied with China, Russia, North Korea, right? And Donald Trump, you know, I mean, by the way, probably may be intentional, right? In the sense that all of this helped Russia because Russia gets its Shahid drones that it uses against Ukraine from Iran. So when Donald Trump is encouraging China to now buy cheap oil,
from Iran. Um, ultimately, uh, Iran gets that money and then builds drones that go to Russia to attack Ukraine. And here's some of the developments that we're learning about as well. Um, China will help Russia build a new seaport and naval base on Lake Dunas love in temporarily occupied Crimea foreign intelligence service of Ukraine says, um,
And as Jane Keefe puts it, and surely China will be helping Russia develop the trillions of Ukraine's rare earth minerals that Russia is now capturing. The one Trump just agreed to jointly exploit. Trump will never stand up to his Kremlin grandma. So do you see what happened here?
Trump did the rare earth minerals deal, promised he would provide Patriot missiles, did not help Ukraine, allowed Russia to take one of the largest lithium deposits in Ukraine. Now Donald Trump does nothing about it. Russia has it and Russia is now working with China and Iran against the United States and our NATO allies. At the same time, we're learning more information that way.
Iran's nuclear facilities were not destroyed. Two data points there that we just learned. Data point one, there was surveillance done of Iranian leadership and audio that was intercepted where top Iranian officials were shocked.
at how little damage the United States strikes did. This was reported with a high degree of confidence by our intelligence officers. And also, as Jennifer Griffin from Fox News reports, new satellite images from Fordow show activity near the bombed ventilation shafts.
Maxar collected new high-resolution satellite imagery today that reveals ongoing activity at and near the ventilation shafts and holes caused by last week's strikes on the Fordow fuel enrichment complex in Iran. On today's imagery, an excavator and several personnel are positioned immediately next to the northern shaft.
on the ridge above the underground complex the crane appears to be operating at the entrance to the shaft hole several additional vehicles are also seen below the ridge and are parked along the access path that was built to access the site in the link provided below you can download several images from today which provide an overview of the complex and you can see right there they're putting it back up back to normal and
operational as well. Let me share with you this video of President Claudia Scheinbaum of Mexico.
Slapping back at Donald Trump after Donald Trump has placed sanctions on certain Mexico banks, President Scheinbaum says, without any evidence whatsoever. And President Scheinbaum says Mexico will not be a piñata for the United States. Here's what she says. Play this clip right here. Second, Mexico does not subordinate to anyone. We are a free, sovereign and independent country.
We coordinate, we collaborate, we've said it many times, but we do not subordinate ourselves. Mexico is a great country. And the relationship with the United States is one of equals, not of subordination. As equals. We are not anyone's piñata. Mexico is respected. And that is the position we have taken with President Trump, which has taken the Secretary of Economy with the Secretary of Commerce.
the Secretary of Finance with the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States. So we collaborate, we coordinate, and there's also a lot of collaboration and coordination. But in this particular case... Well, there must be proof. If there is no evidence, then how will it be supported in a process like this? So that is very important, and we will continue requesting the evidence, as in other cases where information has not been sent.
So that is our position. The Ministry of Finance with the National Banking and Securities Commission in communication also with the Bank of Mexico and they will do everything necessary to maintain our financial system. They are very small banks, it must be said. In Tamasetian, the Mexican financial system is very solid, very strong.
Mexico has many actions against money laundering. Now, to finish this point, we move on. You know, and you may say, well, what is she doing? What is what's going on behind the scenes? Well, also, Claudia Scheinbaum is looking more now to China.
looking more to Europe, looking more to others other than the United States as it paves its way in the future. As you know, I'm a dad and well, I've just been having the greatest time ever. Here's the thing, I never knew just how important it was what we give our children.
Typical children's vitamins are basically candy in disguise. They're filled with two teaspoons of sugar, unhealthy chemicals, and other gummy junk that growing kids should never eat. That's why HIA was created, the Pediatrician Approved Superpower Chewable Vitamin. Now, while most children's vitamins are filled with five grams of sugar and can contribute to a variety of health issues, HIA is made with zero sugar and zero gummy junk, yet it tastes great and is perfect for picky eaters.
Hya fills in the most important common gaps in modern children's diets to provide the full body nourishment that our kids need with a yummy taste that they love.
Formulated with the help of nutritional experts, Hya is pressed with a blend of 12 organic fruits and veggies, then supercharged with 15 essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamin D, B12, C, zinc, folate, and many others to help support immunity, energy, brain function, mood, concentration, teeth, bones, and more.
It's non-GMO, vegan, dairy-free, allergy-free, gelatin-free, nut-free, and everything else you can imagine. Hya is designed for kids of all ages and sent straight to your door so parents have one less thing to worry about. Like I said, I'm a dad and I want to make sure that I give my child the best possible vitamins. And that's why I'm so happy to have come across Hya Health. The ingredients are amazing and I don't have to worry about sugar or gummy junk because Hya Health is made without that stuff.

You know, similarly, you had, as I mentioned at the outset, Prime Minister Ashiba of Japan. He skipped the NATO summit, as did Anthony Albanese, the Prime Minister of Australia, who
In Japan, there are elections coming up in its upper chamber where the Liberal Democratic Party, which is led by Prime Minister Ishiba, is expected to take some heavy losses regarding, you know, the way it initially seemed to operate.
appease Donald Trump. The people of Japan don't like that at all is what I'm hearing. And Prime Minister Ashiba's government canceled a meeting with the Trump regime on defense spending that was supposed to take place this week. And they also refused to show up at NATO after Donald Trump, like a coward, abandoned the G7 summit when he was supposed to meet
There with Ashiba, with Anthony Albanese, with Prime Minister Modi of India. Trump bailed on those meetings.
You know, I'll show you what Donald Trump said yesterday, though. He referred to Prime Minister Ashiba as Mr. Japan. And Donald Trump said, you know, look, if we don't do a trade deal with Japan, I'm just going to send a letter to Mr. Japan and I'm going to say, hey, Mr. Japan, you get 25 percent tariffs, Mr. Japan.
Mr. Japan, I think the leader of Japan is named Mr. Japan. Here, play this clip. And then I helped China. I helped China by reducing it. We still don't know. We don't have the clarity on what you're going to do with these expiration of these pauses. July 9th? No, I think I... I thought I just said it. You ready? You're going to send the letters. I'm going to send letters. That's the end of the trade deal. I could send one to Japan.
Dear Mr. Japan, here's the story. You're going to pay a 25% tariff on your cars, you know. So we give Japan no cars. They won't take our cars, right? Here's the thing. There was a trade deal with Japan that Donald Trump previously did in his first term. We've done this before.
And so the fact that we couldn't do a deal with Japan or we couldn't do a deal yet with India or we couldn't do a deal yet with Europe or we couldn't do a deal yet really with anybody at all. The UK deal is not really a trade deal. The UK deal was dealt with automobiles and aeronautics.
And it said that the three UK Jaguar, Land Rover, and I forget one other UK automobile company, that they would get preferential treatment basically over American car manufacturers. It's so utterly ridiculous. Let's take a look at what President Zelensky has been saying. Zelensky said, "...our institutions are working on the synchronization of the European and Ukrainian sanctions."
We are also fully aligning the European sanctions package targeting the regime in Iran, which includes numerous individuals, companies and entities not only involved in military production and external terrorism schemes against neighboring countries in the region, but also in internal repression within Iran itself. It is one of the most brutal regimes in the world. No surprise that Putin found common ground with it, right?
Zelensky is trying to remind Donald Trump, "Hey, hello, you just struck Iran. Don't you realize that Iran and Putin are allied?" But Zelensky, of course Trump knows. That's why he did what seems to largely be a symbolic attack on Iran that did not take out its facilities so that Donald Trump can claim to be a tough guy while helping Benjamin Netanyahu out in Netanyahu's criminal trial.
It didn't matter whether it was effective or not. It was a way to help Netanyahu. You see what happened here? It was a way to help Netanyahu out in his criminal prosecution. Trump would want to look tough here by taking those images for his Instagram of like the tough guy. And it helps Putin.
Right. Because Iran keeps its weapons. Iran's trade with China increases. Iran gets richer and and Russia gets the benefit of that. That's what went down. And you think I put the pieces together. I mean, you could do the research yourself, but I think I make a compelling case right there.
Zelensky says global sanctions against Russia must now be one of the top priorities. They are a real tool for limiting Russian strategic capabilities. And then President Zelensky also points out that almost all night long, air raid alerts sounded across Ukraine. 477 drones were in our skies, most of them Russian-Iranian Shaheds, along with 60 missiles of various types.
The Russians were targeting everything that sustains life. A residential building in Smila was also hit and a child was injured. Emergency services are responding wherever they're needed. Tragically, while repelling the attack, our F-16 pilot Maxim Utsumeko died. Today he destroyed seven aerial targets.
My condolences to him and his family. Moscow will not stop as long as it has the capability to launch massive strikes. Just this week alone, there have been more than 114 missiles, over 1,270 drones, and nearly 1,100 glide bombs. Putin long ago decided he would keep waging war despite the world's call for peace.
Let me show you this hopeful note right here where over 100,000 people showed up for the LGBTQ pride parade in Hungary after the Trump-aligned authoritarian Viktor Orban banned it in Hungary and said that he would basically attack and torture and harm the people if they showed up to be there for the pride parade. Just watch how beautiful this is. Play this clip.
And finally, let me share with you what my friend, former member of parliament, Charlie Angus, had to say about Donald Trump right here. Here, play the clip. Well, this is so true. I mean, he came to the G7. A
A moment when world leaders came together to try and sort of put some stability in a destabilized world. Instead, we got Donald Trump, who blew the whole thing up and then scrammed out of Canada before he had to confront President Zelensky. Then he went to NATO in Brussels. Again, another key point where the European allies were trying to secure with the world some level of stability with the
increasing violence we are seeing in Israel, Gaza, Iran, the situation with Russia and Donald Trump came in and lit gasoline all over the place and then walked out. So in those, what you saw in between those two pivotal international summits was that Canada said, well, wait a minute, we've
we've got to find a future and it's not with this guy and it's not with the united states you know we have american officials hosting meetings claiming that canada is some kind of terrorist haven uh they're saying that we're sending massive gangs of el salvadorians over the canadian border i mean i'm sorry you've ever visited canada could you show us where we have our el salvadorian gangs i mean i think what next they're going to find weapons of mass destruction
in a bunker in some nice leafy suburb in Canada. The language that Trump is using against Canada is actually having a hugely detrimental effect on American businesses because Canadians are pulling out. Canadians are not traveling there. So I don't know what Prime Minister Carney will do in response to this latest temper tantrum by President Taco. Certainly, you know, when we see that he's throwing around issues like non-existent threats like dairy, it's
It's more of his bad theater, but we've seen the show so many times. We know the punchlines. It's not funny. Nobody gets upset. So I think Canada is just going to have to do what it's going to do. We'll probably have to go back pound for pound, dollar for dollar in trade retaliations as we watch the American economy get weaker and more unsure because who is going to invest right now?
Who's going to start moving product for the American economy when Donald Trump is blowing things up every chance he can get? Well, there you have it, folks. Let me know what you think.
