Ladies and gentlemen, the following segment of the podcast is presented exclusively by Hillsdale College.

Now, in its 175th year, Hillsdale is a truly independent institution.

We're learning as prized and intellectual enthusiasm as valued.

Thank you for listening and my sincere appreciation to Hillsdale for their sponsorship.

Hello, everybody. Mark Limin here. Our number 877-3813811-877-3813811. We will start the program with what is actually the most important issue today.

And we're going to take some head counts here, too, because it's very, very crucial.

Now, if I were you running the mill talk show host, I would not start with Iran, because I figured the minute I mentioned Iran, your eyes glaze over, and you'll go off to the music station, but not the live-in audience.

Why does Iran matter to us?

When you listen to Rand Paul, who a very short time ago was a tour guide for the foreign minister of Iran, who was trashing John Bolton through his surrogate, the southern Avenger, Jack Hunter, real lowlife, trashing me, trashing Lin Cheney.

Too bad Rand Paul doesn't spend as much time trashing the Islamonazi regime that threatens the Nukis.

He didn't want. That's pretty sick if you think about it. I would tell Rand Paul and his ilk, America is not to blame for any of these wars. We react.

I know I'm supposed to start with Kavanaugh. We'll get there. We'll get there. But first things first, I want to tell you about this attack. And why it matters to us, not even because Saudi Arabia is an ally. It matters to us.

Iran, as I read this, used 17 drones and cruise missiles, a combination of both, in a pinpoint, perfect attack, a thousand miles away, on Saudi Arabia's $20 billion.

What is it? And 25 mile square mile, Petro processing center. Several square mile, Petro processing center.

They went after Saudi Arabia's most important facilities. And they hit out every one of them. Pinpoint accuracy.

How Mr. Badoos, does anybody know about this little tiny country called Bahrain that they have a major naval port there? You know that port is home to the United States fifth fleet?

How many of you knew that the United States fifth fleet?

The United States is the most important. And the United States is the most important. And the United States is the most important.

This massive Saudi petroleum facility knocking out, destroying half of their ability to process their petroleum and 5% of the world's fuel. Boom. This is the same country that's talking about ICBMs, which they're clearly perfecting, with nuclear warheads.

Now do I have your attention? Now do I have your attention? And so the media, you know, talk about things that are quasi important. And so this is crucially important.

They can blow out our fifth fleet. And if they use this technology, which shows that they have the ability of pinpoint accuracy. And they will perfect it even more for thousands and thousands of miles away to hit the United States.

With ICBMs and nuclear warheads. Now do you know why it matters to us? Why do we have these code pink Republicans? What I'll call the Iran Wing of the Republican Party, the Iran Wing of the media?
