The 1.2 Scaramucci War | 6/24/25
The episode covers the dramatic end of the 12-day Israel-Iran war, with President Trump announcing a ceasefire on Truth Social, effective after mutual 12-hour stand-downs. Iran’s weak, symbolic rocket attack on a U.S. base in Qatar, telegraphed to avoid casualties, signals their diminished state. Trump confirms Fordow’s nuclear facility was destroyed, countering Russian claims, and pushes “drill baby drill” to stabilize oil prices. VP JD Vance and Sen. Eric Schmidt praise Trump’s restraint and peace-brokering, while House Speaker Mike Johnson hopes for lasting peace. The Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling greenlights Trump’s deportation plans, despite a rogue judge’s defiance. McIntire reflects on Trump’s divine providence in achieving peace and questions future Middle East policy, warning of recurring strikes without Iran’s regime change.
