It's the media buzz meter with Howard Kurtz.

This is the media buzz meter podcast, and my guest, Ben Domit, I thought, would be great whether we were blowing up Iran or not.

But let me start with this, man. You are the new opinion editor at the Daily Wire. You're a Fox News contributor. You have

your Big Ben Show podcast. And you and your wife, Megan McCain, just welcome your third child into the

world. How do you get any sleep? I actually, I'm doing okay. The thankfully, God blessed us with a third kid who he came out very, he's the first boy that we've had.

He came out very heavy and heavier than the other than the girls were.

And so it has made him sleep and getting into a good sleep pattern much more consistently.

So last night, I took care of him at 2 o'clock in the morning, which is pretty typical.

And then I got up again at a little before 6, which is normal for me.

And so I'm getting it's better than it normally is at just three months in.

Well, you've had some practice now.

Yes, exactly.

88 minutes before President Trump on Tuesday morning said that he was going to destroy Iran's civilization, it would never come back.

I got the White House email, started posting like crazy,

saying another delay, a two-week delays, but by the fifth one by my count. I don't think

Donald Trump wants to go down in history as the man who destroyed an ancient civilization. I don't

think he ever really wanted to do this.

Agree or disagree? No, I, I don't think that he does at all. And in fact, I think I,

I don't know about you, Howie, but one of the things that I just get so tired of at this stage in the awareness that we have of the president is continued people having just getting getting their, their emotions up around the rhetoric that he uses when it especially when it comes to these kinds of things he talks about launching missiles and bombs in like the terminology I don't mean to be disrespectful he He talks about it like a teenage boy.

You know, like, I'm going to blow you away.

I'm going to wipe you off the map.

I'm going to do all these different things.
