What's up? What's up everybody? Welcome to a brand new episode of part of the problem,

a weekend episode. We don't usually record on Sundays, but felt like we needed to do that

today. I was just busy yesterday and didn't have a chance to record,

but, you know, sometimes that's a little bit better in situations like this, Rob. I know everyone's

always rushing to be first, but which is important in news too, but you know, it's, it's,

I'm kind of glad that we waited another day because the time that we would

have recorded yesterday anyway things have changed quite a bit anyway um so rob this is a shitty way

to be vindicated you know it's a really awful way to be completely proven right um this is uh we'll we'll kind of get into that but

one of the one of maybe the less interesting dynamics in all of this is that the justification

for the 12 day war has just been completely blown up and exposed for for what it is and what a lot

of us called it out at the time to bait so um on on Friday night at around 2 a.m., I guess more accurately described as Saturday morning,

at around 2 a.m., Donald Trump announced what we had all been, you know, what all the signals

were that we're going to war with Iran and that

this is a full regime change war, a regime change war from the sky. We're not invading the

country, but we are bombing the crap out of them and with the stated goal of overthrowing the

regime.

Now, we had been saying, Rob, on the show for a couple weeks now, and in fact, I've made this, you know, a pretty big point to talk about in Donald Trump's State of the Union last

week, that, well, man, this is really his opportunity where he's got to, like, present the

case for war with the round. I mean, he's got to like present the case for war with Iran.

I mean, he's been building toward this war for quite a long time, making major military moves in the region for the last couple months.

And yet the war is very unpopular.

And he's really never given the American people a good reason why we have to fight it.
