Tom Sauer is a former Naval Special Operations Officer who now works as a political consultant. He joins me for a wide-ranging discussion on the Iran war.
First, Tom tells us about his background. We learn about his time as an EOD officer and the relevance of his skill set to the Iran war. I then ask Tom about Operation Epic Fury. Are we winning? Tom explains why America benefits from maintaining peaceful, orderly shipping lanes. Toward the end of the first half, I ask Tom about the Strait. Is it open? If not, how bad is the situation?
In the second half of the show (available to subscribers), we continue our discussion of the Strait. We then switch gears to discuss the Iranian regime. While not an explicit goal, the war’s proponents obviously desire the overthrow of the Islamic Republic. Are we anywhere near regime change? We then discuss Israel’s role in the war. Was the Jewish State the sole reason President Trump took us into Iran? Is Israel controlling the president with Epstein blackmail, as some, such as Joe Kent, have speculated? Toward the end of the show, we consider the political ramifications stemming from the Iran war. Are the Republicans screwed in the midterms thanks to Epic Fury? Tune in to find out.
