    FIXED AUDIO: Hawk and Mr. Global Discuss the Iran War's Impact on Oil and Gas

    Hawk and Mr. Global discuss the Iran War and the global impact on Oil and Gas. A few more weeks of this could plunge the world into a global recession, and there is no end in sight at this point. Rumors of Iran placing mines in the Straight of Hormuz are running rampant, all governments are lying and making up false narratives to further their own political agendas and nobody can be trusted as a legitimate source of truth. A truly dystopian time we are living through right now both in the United States and also in the world. Like Iran and Israel, the United States is no longer trustworthy for information. The Trump administration has demonstrated how willing they are to lie to further Donald Trump's political agenda of remaining in power, avoiding accountability as it relates to the Esptein Files and in all likelihood staying out of prison in the long term.

  2. Trump Gutted the FBI's Counterterrorism Unit

    Trump Gutted the FBI's Counterterrorism Unit

    Trump's DOJ purge has removed approximately 300 FBI agents, most of them counterterrorism and counter espionage specialists, since the start of the second term. Cash Patel fired 45 of them directly, while thousands more have left the broader DOJ, gutting decades of institutional knowledge and expertise. Former FBI agent and national security contributor Christopher Olirri calls it an "institutional decapitation," warning the country is now dangerously exposed to sophisticated foreign adversaries. The timing could not be worse. Iranian state radio recently broadcast a series of random numbers in Farsi, believed by counterterrorism officials to be coded messaging to activate sleeper cells worldwide. A joint DHS, FBI and counterterrorism memo warning state and local law enforcement about heightened terrorist threats tied to the Iran conflict was blocked from distribution by the White House at the last minute. That five-page bulletin contained specific guidance for spotting and stopping attacks against American civilians. Hawk also covers the ISIS-inspired bombing attempt at Gracie Mansion in New York City, where two men lobbed incendiary devices that failed to detonate at an anti-Muslim protest organized by Jake Lang, who has since been exposed for attempting to contact who he believed was a 15-year-old girl. Lang is a prominent Trump and ICE supporter. The FBI agents and DOJ prosecutors who were fired were not volunteers on Trump-related cases. They were assigned by superiors. The retribution purge targeting anyone connected to the January 6th investigation, the Mueller probe, the Mar-a-Lago documents case, or Jack Smith's work has left national security dangerously undermanned.

    Lindsey Graham Says He Tricked Trump Into Starting the Iran War

    Lindsey Graham claims credit for pushing Donald Trump into an unauthorized war with Iran by using word association games and flattery. This conflict has escalated rapidly as the US and Israel utilize advanced artificial intelligence to pick bombing targets and assess battle damage. Despite the lack of an imminent threat or a clear exit strategy, military strikes have already resulted in the death of Ayatollah Khamenei and other senior Iranian officials. Iran has retaliated by targeting US radar installations across the Gulf region, successfully degrading defense systems in multiple countries. At home, American citizens face the consequences with gas prices surging toward $5 a gallon. Within the Republican party, internal friction grows as Dan Crenshaw loses his primary for being insufficiently aligned with the MAGA movement. Donald Trump now threatens to block all legislation unless the SAVE Act is passed, even as a record number of GOP members choose to retire rather than serve in the minority. While global tensions rise and Trump suggests Cuba may be the next target, the focus remains on a war that many argue was entirely avoidable.

    We Cannot Trust American Media

    Hawk examines the recent suppression of a Department of Homeland Security and FBI intelligence memo intended for state and local law enforcement regarding increased domestic threat levels. This five page document warned of potential Iranian proxy or sleeper cell activity within the United States following the initiation of war on February 28th. A separate classified report from the National Intelligence Council suggests that even a large scale military campaign would likely fail to oust the clerical and military establishment in Iran. Despite reports of significant missile and drone strikes hitting Tel Aviv and U.S. military bases in the region, mainstream American media outlets remain largely silent on these developments. This lack of coverage coincides with major media organizations and social media platforms paying millions to Donald Trump to settle various legal disputes. The ownership of major news outlets by billionaires and individuals with specific geopolitical interests has led to a climate of self-censorship and a failure to provide a complete picture of the conflict. This behavior reflects a concerning trend of obeying in advance to avoid conflict with the current administration.

  5. Russia Is Helping Iran Kill American Troops and Trump Won't Say a Word

    Russia Is Helping Iran Kill American Troops and Trump Won't Say a Word

    A Washington Post exclusive reveals Russia has been supplying Iran with targeting intelligence on US military assets, including the locations of American warships and aircraft operating throughout the Middle East. Three anonymous officials familiar with the intelligence confirmed Russia began passing this information to Iran shortly after the war started, effectively neutralizing early US and Israeli strikes that had specifically targeted Iranian radar and air defense systems designed to locate American forces. Six US troops have been killed and others wounded by Iranian drone attacks, with Iran having launched thousands of one-way attack drones and hundreds of missiles at US military positions, embassies, and civilians. The joint American-Israeli campaign has struck over 2,000 Iranian targets including ballistic missile sites and naval assets. Despite this, Iranian forces continue hitting precise targets, which analysts say is itself evidence of Russian intelligence support filling the void left by destroyed Iranian tracking capabilities. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth this week said Russia and China were "not really a factor" in the conflict, a claim this reporting directly contradicts. Russia's Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declined to comment. China, meanwhile, appears to be watching from the sidelines while strengthening economic relationships globally. Hawk connects the dots on Trump's longstanding deference to Vladimir Putin, his 2018 Helsinki comments trusting Putin over US intelligence agencies, and the uncomfortable political position now facing Republican lawmakers asked to condemn Russia while American soldiers are dying.

  6. A Federal Judge Just Declared ICE Masked Agents Unconstitutional

    A Federal Judge Just Declared ICE Masked Agents Unconstitutional

    A federal judge in the Southern District of West Virginia issued a ruling that should be making national headlines but isn't. Hawk walks through the full 34-page opinion by U.S. District Judge Joseph Godwin, who found that ICE agents wearing masks, operating from unmarked vehicles with no license plates, and making warrantless civil arrests violate the Fourth and Fifth Amendments of the U.S. Constitution. The case centers on Anderson Jesus Urquilla Ramos, a 21-year-old Salvadoran national with a valid driver's license, lawful work authorization, and a pending asylum application, who was pulled over in West Virginia on a pretext stop. Masked federal agents in an unmarked vehicle with no license plate detained him without a warrant, without identifying themselves, and without legal justification. Judge Godwin's opinion traces the Fourth Amendment back to its founding-era roots, the colonial outrage over British general warrants and writs of assistance, and applies that history directly to modern ICE enforcement tactics. The ruling draws on James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Justice Brandeis, and citations ranging from Marbury v. Madison to Katz v. United States. The opinion concludes that a law enforcement practice whose only operational effect is the elimination of accountability is not a safety measure. It is a constitutional deficiency. Hawk also highlights the Fifth Amendment due process violations and the habeas corpus petition that brought the case before the court. This is Fourth Amendment education at its finest, delivered through one of the most clearly reasoned federal opinions in recent memory.

    Hawk Discusses the IRAN WAR with ANGRY MALE VET

    Please Follow Angry Male Vet Here: SubStack: https://angrymalevet.substack.com/ YouTube: @AngryMaleVet TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/discover/angry-male-vet Hawk and Angry Male Vet cut through the noise on the U.S. war with Iran, four days in and already without a clear objective, an exit strategy, or a definition of what victory even looks like. The conversation covers how Netanyahu and Trump pushed the U.S. into military conflict with Iran while Gulf allies opened their airspace and stayed out of offensive operations entirely. Rubio's admission that the U.S. knew Iran strikes were coming and did nothing to stop them draws sharp scrutiny from a combat veteran's perspective. The discussion covers the depletion of U.S. and Israeli interceptor missiles, Iran's deliberate strategy of using cheap drones and missiles to drain stockpiles, and what happens when the Iron Dome starts running out of ammunition. The purging of senior military leadership, including the firing of Iran cyber experts by Kash Patel just 36 hours before the war began, raises serious questions about institutional knowledge inside the Pentagon and FBI. Pete Hegseth's performance as Defense Secretary, Dan Cain's appointment as Joint Chiefs Chairman over 43 active generals, and Tim Pool's presence at Pentagon briefings paint a picture of an administration running on perceived loyalty rather than competence. The AIPAC money trail, the Tom Malinowski primary story, and Mark Kelly's shifting position on the war powers resolution expose how a foreign lobbying organization controls votes in both parties. The call to action is clear: contact representatives, reject AIPAC money, support the March 28th No Kings protest, and register voters for 2026.

  8. Authoritarian Theocracy in Iran, Afghanistan and Here In The US

    MAR 4

    Authoritarian Theocracy in Iran, Afghanistan and Here In The US

    The death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei at the hands of the United States marks the end of nearly four decades of authoritarian theocracy in Iran. Hawk reads and analyzes a piece from The Atlantic by Karim Sadjadpour examining Khamenei's life, his ruthless consolidation of power through the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and how the Islamic Republic of Iran was built on three ideological pillars: death to America, death to Israel, and the forced covering of women. Drawing direct parallels to the Taliban in Afghanistan, Hawk walks through the Taliban's systematic oppression of women since retaking power in 2021, from banning girls from school after age 12 to prohibiting women from appearing in public without a burka. The comparison extends to white Christian nationalism, Project 2025, and the Heritage Foundation, examining how fundamentalist religion across Islam, Christianity, and other faiths has long been weaponized by insecure men to control and silence women and girls. The IRGC's role as Khamenei's political and economic power base mirrors how Trump has used loyal institutions to consolidate control. Eric Hoffer's observation that mass movements require belief in a devil, not God, applies as much to MAGA's targeting of immigrants, trans people, and the left as it did to Khamenei's America. The Iranian government's killing of 7,000 to 10,000 protesters over economic grievances, while spending on proxy wars instead of healthcare, parallels Republican cuts to Medicaid and SNAP alongside a $200 billion ICE budget. Khamenei lived by death to America and death to Israel. Those are exactly the forces that killed him.
