0:58My name's Mackenzie, and I started a GoFundMe for the adoptive mother of a nonverbal
1:05autistic child. The mother had lost her job because she wasn't able to find adequate
1:11care for this autistic child.
1:13So she really needed some help with living expenses, paying some back bills.
1:19So I launched a GoFundMe to help support them during this crisis.
1:23And we raised about $10 ,000 within just a couple of months.
1:30I think that the surprising thing was by telling a clear story and just like
1:36really being very clear about what we needed.
1:38We had some really generous donations from people who were really moved by the situation
1:43that this family was struggling with.

1:58Now we're learning that actually multiple aircrafts have been hit by Iran.
2:03It's not just the F -15E, which we reported about earlier.
2:07There is a second combat plane that was hit and also two helicopters that were
2:13hit. This other plane that was struck down, it is a A -10 Wartog that
2:20crashed near the Strait of Hormuz.
2:23This is in addition to the F -15E that was shot down over Iran.
2:28So two aircraft shot down, A -10 Wartog, as well as the F -15E.
2:35Also, it's being reported that two helicopters were hit as well.
2:42The damage we're still assessing, but does indeed seem significant.
2:48It's the U .S. Air Force's HH -60G Pave Hawk Combat Search and Rescue helicopters
2:57that were involved in the search and rescue efforts for that F -15E Strike Eagle
3:03that was down today over Southern Iran.
3:06I mean, you just think about it.
3:08You had Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth saying that we've got air superiority, that no
3:13one can hit our jets.
3:14We loiter over Iran and we rain down death is what Donald Trump and Hegseth
3:20said. And we're seeing the exact opposite of that today.
3:24You know, it's notable as well because earlier Central Command, U .S.
3:29CENTCOM, posted the following fact check, as they were calling it, claim.
3:34Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says it downed an enemy fighter jet over the Kashem
3:42Island in the Strait of Hormuz.
3:44Then they go, fact, all U .S.
3:47fighter aircraft are accounted for.
3:49Iran's IRGC has made the same false claim at least half a dozen times.
3:55But now it's been confirmed that basically four different types of aircraft have indeed been
4:01hit in a very short period of time.
4:04In essence, CENTCOM is lying and the other data seems to be accurate, which is
4:09what we've been saying for quite some time.
4:12And it is horrifying that we continue to get lies from the Trump regime.
4:17And then we have to continue to discover what's really happening.
4:21Again, F -15 and A -10 Warthog and two of the Combat Search and Rescue
4:27HH -60G helicopters have indeed been hit.
4:32So Donald Trump was called by NBC and he was asked, well, does this change
4:38the circumstances of what's taking place?
4:41Downing of the U .S.
4:42jet won't affect negotiations with Iran, Trump tells NBC News.
4:47But I mean, the status of the negotiations is Iran told the mediators again, over
4:53and over and again. And today they said it one more time.
4:56Iran telling mediators, we do not want to meet U .S.
5:01officials in Islamabad in the coming days.
5:03We're not meeting in Pakistan.
5:05The current round of efforts by regional countries led by Pakistan to try to reach
5:11a ceasefire. fire between the U .S.
5:13and Iran has reached a dead end, mediators told the Wall Street Journal.
5:17You didn't have to read the Wall Street Journal to know that.
5:20You could have been watching the Midas Touch Network where we've been saying that mediation
5:24and negotiations never started. The Trump regime went to Pakistan, asked for help.
5:29Pakistan reached out to the old foreign minister of Iran and said, hey, can you
5:33maybe try to convince the current foreign minister and the current regime?
5:37As those discussions were happening, Trump and Netanyahu tried to assassinate the old foreign minister
5:43and killed the guy's wife, blew up the guy's home, killed the guy's wife and
5:47family. That guy's in severe condition.
5:49Setting aside that, Iran said, we're not negotiating.
5:52Iran says, here are our non -negotiables.
5:54We're always going to keep our ballistic missiles.
5:56We're always going to now take control of these trade -off removes.
5:59Do not touch our drones.
6:01We want full reparations and get your military bases out of the Middle East.
6:06And we want security guarantees for Iran, for the Houthis, for the Shiite groups in
6:13Iraq, and for Hezbollah. I mean, they've made it very, very clear what they're saying.
6:20Okay, so going back to what's this NBC headline, I just wanted to make sure
6:24to give you the context when you see a headline.
6:27Downing of these U .S.
6:28aircraft, they just said U .S.
6:29jet, but we know it's four aircrafts right now, won't affect negotiations with Iran, Trump
6:34tells NBC News. In a brief interview, Trump refused to discuss the specifics of ongoing
6:39search and rescue efforts in Iran after an American jet was down, but he expressed
6:44frustration about the media coverage of what is plainly an intense and sensitive military operation.
6:50So Donald Trump could just lie.
6:52Asked if today's events will affect any negotiations with Iran, Donald Trump said it would
6:57not. No, not at all.
6:58It's a war. We're in a war, Garrett.
7:01Garrett was the NBC reporter, Garrett Hawk.
7:04We're in a war, Garrett.
7:05Oh, I thought y 'all were saying it was a special military operation.
7:08I got it. It's a war.
7:09In other words, you need authorization because it was a war that you did not
7:13get. Donald Trump then rushed to social media to post the following.
7:18Keep the oil, anyone? Keep the oil, anyone, is what Donald Trump's been posting.
7:25Just hand Iran more messages that they can show their people to rally them against
7:31the United States. Trump writes, keep the oil, anyone?
7:34And then earlier today, when we first learned about that F -15E that was hit
7:38and shot down, Donald Trump posted, with a little more time, we can easily open
7:43the Hormuz straight, take the oil, and make a fortune.
7:47It would be a gusher for the world.
7:49Donald J. Trump, a gusher for the world.
7:51Now, Donald Trump is losing it in the White House.
7:54He is crashing out right now.
7:56And one of the things that he's doing is, kid you not, he's blasting from
8:02the White House, God bless America, like at full volume right now.
8:08So just, I want you to think about the scene.
8:10He's on loop. He's blasting God bless America while there are these four planes that
8:16have been, or four aircraft, two planes, two helicopters that have been shot down.
8:21Look at the split screen.
8:22As you can see, the search and rescue effort underway, which is not really going
8:27that well. I mean, there's, to be fair, there was one of the pilots who
8:31was found. The other is they're searching for.
8:35When it comes to that other plane, the A -10, that pilot's safe.
8:39The helicopter pilots are safe as well.
8:42But all of those aircraft have been, have been hit.
8:46But let's just look at this, look, look at this side by side as Donald
8:50Trump is blasting God bless America.
8:52This is just so deranged, so demented.
8:55Here, play this clip. Now, I would be remiss if I didn't show you these
9:22clips right here. First, I'll show you Pete Hegseth saying that we will have complete
9:27and total air superiority. Remember when Hegseth said this, play this clip.
9:31The two most powerful air forces in the world will have complete control of Iranian
9:37skies, uncontested airspace. I hope all the folks watching understand what uncontested airspace and complete
9:46control means. It means we will fly all day, all night, day and night, finding,
9:53fixing, and finishing the missiles and defense industrial base of the Iranian military.
9:58Finding and fixing their leaders and their military leaders.
10:03Flying over Tehran. Flying over Iran.
10:07Flying over their capital. Flying over the IRGC.
10:10Iranian leaders. Looking up and seeing only U .S.
10:17and Israeli air power. Every minute of every day until we decide it's over.
10:24Then remember when Donald Trump gave a press conference, what a week or so ago,
10:29where Donald Trump was asked, what do you mean when you say we won the
10:32war? And Trump's like, we can roam free over their skies and nothing will happen.
10:37Here, play this clip. We'll make it.
10:39The war was militarily won in Iran?
10:43What did you mean by that?
10:44He said the war was militarily won in Iran.
10:46What did you mean by that?
10:47Oh, I think we've won.
10:48We've knocked out their Navy, their Air Force.
10:50We've knocked out their anti -aircraft.
10:53We've knocked out everything. We're roaming free from a military standpoint.
10:57All they're doing is clogging up the strait.
11:00But from a military standpoint, they're finished.
11:03So how much longer? Or remember when Pete Hegsip says we negotiate with bombs, we
11:07loiter over Iran, and we can rain down death whenever we want to?
11:12Remember Hegsip said that? Let's play this clip.
11:15The air campaign that we've conducted, that Israel's conducted alongside us, was one for the
11:20history books, truly. And it's because we have a president of the United States that
11:23when he sends his war fighters out to fight, he unties their hands to actually
11:28go out and close with and destroy the enemy as viciously as possible from moment
11:32one. And that's why we see ourselves as part of this negotiation as well.
11:36We negotiate with bombs. You have a choice as we loiter over the top of
11:41Tehran, as the president talked about, about your future.
11:44The president has made it clear that you will not have a nuclear weapon.
11:47The War Department agrees. Our job is to ensure that.
11:50And so we're keeping our hand on that throttle as long as it's hard as
11:54is necessary to ensure the interest of the United States of America are achieved on
11:59that battlefield. Now, I'm also reminded of what Donald Trump said in the past 48
12:03hours, where Trump says, we don't have any money for Medicare, Medicaid, or social services,
12:08or anything like that. We must put all our money into war.
12:12Donald Trump just announced a $1 .5 trillion budget for the Defense Department.
12:18Look at this side -by -side of what, on the one hand, Marco Rubio was
12:22saying about Iran. On the other side, what Donald Trump just said.
12:26Let's play this clip. Imagine in Iran that instead of spending their wealth, billions of
12:31dollars supporting terrorists or weapons, had spent that money helping the people of Iran, you'd
12:35have a much different country.
12:36We have to take care of one thing, military protection.
12:39The United States can't take care of daycare.
12:42That has to be up to a state.
12:45We can't take care of daycare.
12:46We're a big country. We have 50 states.
12:48We have all these other people.
12:50We're fighting wars. We can't take care of daycare.
12:53It's not possible for us to take care of daycare.
12:56Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things.
12:59You also have a French general who recently went on TV in France, and he
13:07said the following about the U .S.
13:09plans to potentially build a runway inside Iran to fly out uranium under active bombing.
13:15He goes, American officials should stop snorting cocaine between meetings.
13:22This is the same general who called joining Trump's war, quote, buying cheap tickets for
13:27the Titanic after it hit the iceberg.
13:30And I guess he's watching the U .S.
13:32White House blasting God bless America while disaster continues to strike.
13:38And he's like, they need to stop doing cocaine in the White House right now.
13:42Again, it's utterly absurd. Also, in response to Pete Hegseth posting, bomb Iran back to
13:48the Stone Age. This is what Trump and Hegseth, this is the message coming out
13:52of the Trump regime as they bomb Iranian bridges.
13:55As Donald Trump says, we're going to hit electric grids and take all of Iranian
14:00oil, right? I mean, the language Donald Trump is using is that of the authoritarian
14:04dictator. I mean, it's heinous and despicable, but that that language is being used in
14:09the name of the United States right now.
14:10And you have Hegseth posting back to the Stone Age.
14:13Iran continues to make these like Lego videos that are mocking Trump and mocking Hegseth.
14:20So they, through all of this going on right now, they release their latest like
14:24Lego video mocking Hegseth. I'm going to show you what they're doing as they go
14:29on their offensive with their messaging campaign.
14:32You can see what's going on right here.
14:33Let's play it. And then folks, we're learning as well that the right now in
15:11Tehran, a significant wave of strikes is currently underway against military and infrastructure strikes, strikes
15:18across the Iranian capital of Tehran.
15:21So in response to all of this, Trump blasting, God bless America, four aircraft shot
15:27down, and now US and Israel intensifying strikes in the Iranian capital of Tehran while
15:33there's still a search and rescue mission for the other pilot taking place from that
15:38F -15E. This is a complete mess, folks, a complete and utter mess.
