Summary
Is Trump's Iran Peace Deal Real This Time? Why is Trump Allowed To End The War Now? Trump says he never wanted regime change in Iran. He said the opposite, repeatedly, on day one of the war. Matt and CJ start with the gaslighting and end up somewhere bigger: if Trump only attacked Iran because he was captured, why can he suddenly defy Netanyahu and the whole Israel-first machine without fear? Matt floats a theory about who actually holds the leash, CJ tests it against a couple centuries of how elites really operate, and together they walk through what Trump may have been promised, the three things that will prove whether this peace is genuine, and the outcome nobody in Washington wants to admit. Iran is stronger now. The US is weaker. Every Republican running in the midterms is going to have to explain how that happened. Plus the scapegoat question, the aid hidden inside the Pentagon's budget, and why a country protected by two oceans keeps going looking for fights it doesn't need. https://x.com/matthewcarano https://x.com/KillmerCj https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSuSWVH4XXhPkDgQSpzOTog
