Why Trump Ignored His Own Generals

from The Fireside · host John, Steve and Adam

Operation Epic Fury and the Ghost Murmur CIA technology are analyzed following the bombshell New York Times report on Trump’s Iran decision. We examine how Benjamin Netanyahu allegedly directed U.S. strategy from the Situation Room while top generals warned of a "farcical" regime change plan. Was JD Vance the only voice of reason, or is this a coordinated leak to protect his 2028 interests? Explore the high cost of the Strait of Hormuz closure and the "Epstein Fury" theories taking over the internet.
