Summary
The HITO boys dive into the failed peace talks between the US and Iran headed by JD Vance. Trump responded to the failure by announcing a US blockade of the already blocked Strait of Hormuz. It seems Trump is willing to subject the American people to maximum suffering, whether it be higher gas prices or more new tariffs — there's nothing he won't do to make things more expensive for no reason. No matter which way you slice it, it seems like the world will be a worse place because of the US and Israel's unprovoked and unpopular war. Israel is also fighting a separate war in Lebanon and despite calls for ongoing negotiations, neither war seems to have an end in sight.

| 0:00.0 | Guys, you're not going to believe it. |
| 0:01.3 | What? |
| 0:01.8 | J.D. Vance did not bring peace to the Middle East. |
| 0:04.2 | Oh my God. |
| 0:04.9 | All my hopes were stored in that one man right there. I thought he could really do it. I thought he could bring his wit and his charm and his relatability all the way over to Pakistan where these negotiations were happening. And I thought that he would just melt the heart of the Iranian negotiator. Jady Vance dripping in charisma. the most relatable guy in government right now. |
| 0:21.9 | Hashtag relatable. |
| 0:22.9 | Somehow he couldn't get the job done. |
| 0:24.8 | We said, of the Iranian negotiator. JD Vince dripping in charisma, the most relatable guy in government right now. Hashtag relatable. Somehow he couldn't get the job done. We sent our brightest mind, our most, our most skilled negotiator. Don't forget, I believe Jared Kushner and Steve Whitkoff were also involved in this delegation. But JD Vance will lead in the way, the vice president of the United States, elected by the people, the world's greatest minds when it comes to the Middle East were there. Jared Kushner and J.D. Vance. |
| 0:40.3 | He's the greatest mind we've ever produced. And somehow he just, he didn't manage to get it done. |
| 0:44.2 | And that makes me think that this problem is intractable. We're never going to solve it. Exactly. |
| 0:47.2 | We may be in this war, guys. |
| 0:48.6 | I don't want to say it, but forever. |
| 0:50.5 | Guys, it might be another forever war. |
| 0:53.3 | I just, I can't believe J.D. |
| 0:54.6 | Vance didn't bring peace in the Middle East. |
| 0:55.7 | No, I can't. |
| 0:56.3 | It's really is quite a shame, right? Forever. Guys, it might be another forever war. I just, I can't believe J.D. |
| 0:54.6 | Vance didn't bring peace to the Middle East. No, I can't. It's really is quite a shame, right? And something that everybody expected to happen. Yeah. J.D. Vance kills the Pope. Katie Vance visits the Pope, kills the Pope. J.D. Vince drops the college football trophy when he was visiting Ohio State or when Ohio State came to the White House or whatever. |
| 1:11.1 | And now he's dispatched to the Middle East and somehow. Somehow he doesn't bring peace to the situation. Well, I don't think it's coincidence that J.D. Vance goes and he does these peace talks and then all of a sudden Trump is like, we're blocking the straight of four moves. Everywhere this guy goes, it's an international disaster tour that he's been on since he won the vice presidency. It's actually genuinely insane. How can one man be so unlucky? J.D. Vance fumbled these negotiations so hard that Trump's like, I'm going to blockade a blockade. He has such negative aura that everywhere he goes, international disasters follow. Yeah. It's just, it's ridiculous. Didn't he also like, oh, God, was he visiting India? Like right before like that war broke out or something like that? It's insane. And with the Pope, it's like Jady Manx goes and he kills the Pope. Yeah. And now Trump is beefing with the current Pope. What is like what's going on? I swear to God, everything that comes out of this news cycle is fake. They also carted him out after the Minneapolis killings by ICE. Yeah. He was the one to publicly defend the administration and it was just another fucking disaster. |
| 2:03.4 | The way that J.D. |
| 2:04.1 | Vance continuously messes things up for this administration makes me think that he might be like a left-a-sleeper cell. It has to be. Like, there's no other way. I've never met a man. Not met me. I've never seen a man get out there in public and be so unlikable, yet be in such high office, like, I guess, right? |
| 2:18.4 | Like, Ron DeSantis, charisma's luck, he didn't make it that far. |
