  • Trump's Military Options: Is A Strike On Iran Necessary?
    Jun 19 2025

    🎙️ Michael Duncan, Comfortably Smug, and John Ashbrook tackle the Iran question: should Trump strike or seek peace? They explore the 50 years of context—Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution, the 444-day hostage crisis, Hezbollah’s 1983 Beirut bombing (241 US service members killed), and Qassem Soleimani’s IED attacks in Iraq. 🇮🇷 Guest Brian Hook, former Assistant Secretary of State, breaks down Israel’s surgical strikes on Iran’s proxies (Hamas, Hezbollah) and missile capabilities, exposing Iran’s weakened state. Will the Ayatollah take Trump’s off-ramp or face a bunker-buster on the Fordow nuclear facility? 🤔 On the lighter side, they roast Senator Padilla’s flop at a Kristi Noem event, Ilhan Omar’s unhinged ICE rants, and a WNBA brawl targeting Caitlin Clark. 🏀The “No Kings” protests get shredded—labeled anti-military and out-of-touch. Plus, a bizarre clip of a woman claiming she’s in an alternate timeline where Kamala Harris won! 😵‍💫 Question of the day: Does Trump strike Iran or negotiate peace?
