NEW: Republican Senator Ted Cruz is completely stumped after Tucker Carlson asks him what the population of Iran is.
— Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) June 18, 2025
Tucker: How many people live in Iran?
Cruz: I don't know the population.
Tucker: You don't know the population of the country you seek to topple?
Cruz: How… pic.twitter.com/7ES655jIud

Ted Cruz always was a jerk: https://www.politico.com/story/2016/01/ted-cruz-teen-world-domination-218148
I can just imagine how the AIPAC operatives are burning up the phone lines to their (paid-off) agents of influence (congress, senate, media) at this pivotal moment of history. They’re calling in their markers–it’s one massive margin call this evening.
Caught a couple minutes of Mark Levin’s commentary on Hannity this evening. I could swear that steam was shooting out of this Mo-Mo’s ears like a Warner Brothers Cartoon… he again making the case for war against Iran no matter the cost, irrespective of the ramifications to the USA. I can’t even imagine what Ben Shapiro is doing at this moment–whatever it is you can bet it is against the basic interests of the USA–with his ear tightly pressed against his smartphone as his Mossad handler barks orders. Furthermore, you can rest assured that all of these dumb-fecks who were caught up in the Mossad/Epstein honey trap blackmail operation are being activated to exert any and all influence they possess over our elected clueless knuckle heads in government.
Fox News has gone full 65 IQ retard pro-Iran war in the last 24 hours. And it seems to me that a lot of conservatives are lapping up the propaganda like a Starbucks pupa-chino. It even on first glance, by their coverage, seems like it was Iran who initiated this conflict–and completely ignoring the fact that is was in fact Israel striking the first blow. They are even shaping the narrative of “Boo-Hoo, we’re Jews, see how Iran is being mean to us.” Yet–like I said, conservatives have no common sense ability of discernment. Propaganda works BTW.
Now President Trump is posting that Iran must submit to an “Unconditional Surrender” –holy crap! Like this is going to happen. It must have been a compelling alphabet agency Power Point presentation for him to shift gears like this. Most likely from the identical people who pulled the wool over his eyes over five years ago with the Covid Hoax.
Possible last word for the evening…Pakistan announces support for Iran and will back them up with their nuclear arsenal. And Iran just announced that they have a “Big Surprise” in store for Israel. I wonder if it entails canned sunshine they’ve cleverly kept hidden in their back pockets.
David, you might delete this, but my question goes along with the theme of everything being fake and gay meaning all lies. My memory could be wrong, but do any of you recall the journalist who was caught making up news stories in 1998? I thought for sure, based on memory, that he was a black guy. The Internet has completely scrubbed and replaced that information with a white guy. Does anybody else remember what I am remembering or am I wrong? I’m not turning this into a racial thing as I know several very good Black people. But, if they did scrub this fact, then they did it very thoroughly with 60 minutes interviews, talk shows, etc., with the white guy as the culprit.
Dan Rather was making up stuff about GW. So many of them got caught making stuff up, it’s hard to keep track.
They have been making up news stories since at least Waterloo
Too right! Remember the hurricane where the female reporter was sitting in a canoe wailing about the awful flood and the deep water, and then the family waded by behind her in full view of the camera? Ooops! If it bleeds it leads. And they make sure it bleeds even if they have to make it up. Fake and gay is an apt description for everything in Western society today.
Cruz–and likely every other of our “genius” “representatives”–could have been given the Cliff’s Notes version of Iran but he doesn’t really care; he doesn’t GAF. He only cares about what all of our “representatives” care about: perpetual re-election, massive aggrandizement of wealth (the kind that becomes generational), the constant fawning upon his ‘Official” presence and keeping his name off lists.
Any lists. Creepy lists, or UKR kickback lists, or adrenochrome cocktail lists–whatever!
They must stay squeaky clean, ’cause that’s how they keep the “perpetual” in “re-election.”
Does your personal bunker include all members of your family, Ted?
Just as this issue is anti-MAGA it’s also anti-Tea Party. Shame on Ted as a Tea Party member for forgetting it. This is about foreign entanglements not Israel or Iran.
Does it bother anyone else that our government leaders are so totally clueless about nearly everything? Constantly starting wars with other countries and overthrowing foreign governments with no idea of the culture and the blowback that could occur?
One of my favorite songs from the late 60’s. So prescient and more true today than ever.
Once the religious, the hunted and weary
Chasing the promise of freedom and hope
Came to this country to build a new vision
Far from the reaches of kingdom and pope
Like good Christians some would burn the witches
Later some got slaves to gather riches
But still from near and far to seek America
They came by thousands, to court the wild
But she just patiently smiled, and bore them a child
To be their spirit, and guiding light
And once the ties with the crown had been broken
Westward in saddle and wagon they went
And till the railroad linked ocean to ocean
Many the lives which had come to an end
While we bullied, stole and bought our a homeland
We began the slaughter of the red man
But still from near and far to seek America
They came by thousands, to court the wild
But she just patiently smiled, and bore them a child
To be their spirit, and guiding light
The blue and gray they stomped it
They kicked it just like a dog
And when the war was over
They stuffed it just like a hog
And though the past has its share of injustice
Kind was the spirit in many a way
But its protectors and friends have been sleeping
Now it’s a monster and will not obey
Here is how to explain everything, your Representative and senators , both federal and state, are not elected by the people, they are selected by the controlling PACS and mega donors. That is who they work for, not us. You cannot change that because anybody who is not controlled by them will be prevented from being elected. If you try to call you reps you are ignored and in many cases they, like with Greg Murphy will tell you that he knows more than you do so your opinion is irrelevant.
Yes, the “Electoral Process,” culling out any possibles who may not be willing to ‘play ball’ with the controllers. Personality-wise, politicians are sociopaths, becoming expert at manipulation, deceit and betrayal in their singular rise to power.
As soon as one person believes himself smarter, more capable, more deserving of being in a position of authority so as to make decisions for everyone else, he is lost.
As a young adult I believed that senators & congressmen were a cut above–special people, more intelligent than most, the creme of the crop!
How naive was I?

You don’t purchase the American congress and then don’t use them when needed.
Iran has borders with quite a few of their allies. Russia through the Caspian. Pakistan on their east. China has access through the sea and other friendly countries. So, Iran can be supplied for a long time. Israel lost their refinery in Haifa. I’m told it supplied 80% of the fuel for Israel. Israel’s economy was already suffering because of the Red Sea being restricted. I think Israel made a big mistake. A fatal mistake. I smell nukes. Israeli nukes. US tactical nukes. And then what? World currencies and economies are collapsing soon. What will they do to hide it? Hear anything about Ukraine lately? China is in the process of changing leaders. Wasn’t in the news, was it? I’m as ready as I can be.
Ole Teddy got testy when confronted by reason.Tucker made a fool out of him. Best thing to happen was Tucker getting fired from Faux news.
I normally like Tucker but I don’t appreciate his belittling of Cruz. Is Cruz the ambassador to Iran. Is Cruz supposed to know all the logistics of Iran. Not cool to lower someone so you can exalt yourself.
Tucker did the job of a journalist. Cruz is a big boy and exposed himself. This is a great example of how little our leaders regard people.
