Benny Johnson's Pentagon Sources Predict Cuba Takeover
The U.S. may be on the brink of attacking Cuba.
- 10 minutes
We've been having some conversations
with some people
who can't appear on camera, but I can
and I can tell you what they've told us.
I can tell you that America's going
to change forever.
Trump says that Cuba will be ours
and that that will happen.
Like maybe this weekend, actually.
It's remarkable.
[00:00:18]
So, if you were under the impression
that perhaps Donald Trump's bloodlust
will be sated by Venezuela and Iran,
and that would be it, he'd go back to
being the president of peace or whatever.
Evidently not, because that is
a right wing commentator, Ben Johnson,
saying that he's apparently been talking
to somebody at the Pentagon.
[00:00:36]
He's now claiming that a US operation
to eliminate the Cuban regime do regime
change, followed by nation building.
There could come as early as this weekend.
Now, I don't know if Benny Johnson
was supposed to leak that information.
Maybe the Pentagon wrongly assumed
that he would keep the entire thing on
[00:00:52]
the down low, but he is now speaking out.
- What do you think, Jake?
- First of all, it's amazing.
So the Democrats ignore
online media entirely.
They don't think that it even exists.
They don't.
They're not aware of it.
The Republicans are like, are you a random
blogger somewhere or an influencer?
[00:01:09]
Let us tell you our secret battle plans.
Okay, anyways, but I'm glad to know it.
And guys, the most important part here is,
oh my God, I think we're
actually going to attack Cuba.
That is mental. Mental.
[00:01:26]
That's not the only piece of evidence.
John, give him more.
Yeah.
And it begs the question,
like, Definitionally, how many wars do
you have to be at the same time
for it to count as a world war?
Well, let's think about that
as we go to this next stop,
because you don't necessarily have
to rely on Benny Johnson and you shouldn't
[00:01:42]
because he's a lying grifter or even
his sources in the Pentagon
who might or might not exist and might or
might not know what they're talking about.
Donald Trump has been very clear
that he wants to attack Cuba.
It's basically been a matter
of when rather than if.
And here's an example,
an interview with CNN's Dana Bash.
[00:02:00]
He quickly turned to Cuba,
he said without being asked.
Cuba is going to fall pretty soon,
by the way, but Cuba is going to fall.
They want to make a deal so badly,
and I asked, how so?
He said they want to make a deal.
So I'm going to put Marco over there
and we'll see how that works.
[00:02:17]
But we're really focused
on this one now, meaning Iran.
- We've got plenty of time on Cuba.
- Yeah.
When Donald Trump says they want to make
a deal, I no longer have any understanding
of what that is supposed to mean.
It's every, I guess, a deal
for what the fate of their country is.
[00:02:34]
And again, to be clear,
if you thought, oh, finally, Cubans will
be free to choose their own leaders, nope.
Marco Rubio is going to be installed
as the Viceroy of Cuba or whatever.
There is no democracy anywhere, not even
feeling like it's here anymore either.
[00:02:49]
And he had an interview
with Politico yesterday
where he said, Cuba's going to fall.
We cut off all oil, all money,
or we cut off everything coming in from
Venezuela, which was their sole source.
And they want to make a deal.
And, like not just a deal necessarily.
[00:03:04]
The full, complete conquest of Cuba
seems to be what he's indicating,
as you'll see here.
Cuban government is talking with us,
and they're in a big deal of trouble.
As you know, they have no money.
They have no anything right now.
[00:03:20]
But they're talking with us, and maybe
we'll have a friendly takeover of Cuba.
Well, we could very well end up
having a friendly takeover of Cuba.
What about the boats?
After many, many years?
We've had a lot of years
of dealing with Cuba.
[00:03:36]
I've been hearing about Cuba since I'm
a little boy, but they're in big trouble.
So, so weird.
But but anyway, sources inside the
white House, have said that Trump seems
to think, well, Venezuela was easy,
I guess easy in that they replaced Maduro,
[00:03:55]
just let his vice president take over.
Now they've cut like an
oil deal or whatever.
Screw the Venezuelans.
They again don't get democracy.
And one administration official said
the president is feeling like I'm
on a roll, like this is working.
And then The Atlantic has
an exposé from Vivian Salama.
[00:04:11]
I'm not going to read all the quotes
because it largely gets into
what you've been talking about,
about how he has been convinced
by people in the administration
that he alone can remake the map,
and there is no downside to interventions
everywhere simultaneously.
And he just needs to do it.
[00:04:27]
And somehow that comes into his mind or
out of his mouth as Maga rather than just
this just feels like the Bush doctrine.
This just feels
like this new conservatism.
That's literally all it is.
They're doing massive interventions all
over the globe to set up positive economic
[00:04:43]
deals that benefit the Epstein class here,
and maybe some elites in that country.
I don't understand what the difference is
between this and the Bush doctrine.
No, it's actually much worse.
So let me be clear about a couple things.
First, just to add to the extra evidence
that we're actually going to go to Cuba.
[00:04:59]
Lindsey Graham can't help himself.
He gets so excited
when he gets briefed about war
and he came screaming out of a briefing.
Cuba's next. Cuba's next.
Right?
And I don't know what else he did to.
Anyway, I don't want to think about it.
So, so now, in terms of the Bush doctrine,
what do we we Trump has already attacked
[00:05:19]
eight countries.
Eight.
He has already done more airstrikes
in the first year.
And that was in 2025. Right?
I'm not even counting the war in 26, etc.
Then Biden did in all four years.
And they called Biden a warmonger.
[00:05:35]
Yeah, they called him a warmonger.
And they've done more strikes
in one year than he did in four.
And they said Harris would bring World
War Three, that she would launch wars.
Yeah.
And here they are launching wars
in Iran, Venezuela, Cuba.
They just did a joint military operation
in Ecuador because why not attack
[00:05:53]
all countries at once?
They've done bombings
in Nigeria and Yemen.
We can go on and on. Right?
So, these guys are nuts.
So now back to Cuba.
Okay, so one last thing
on the Bush doctrine.
So Bush was like, okay, hey, we're going
to do the Iraq war and Afghanistan.
[00:06:11]
And that was a disaster.
But even Bush kept it contained to one
area, like what our military has been
worried about and has strategized around
for as long as I've been alive,
is a two front war or two war
in two different theaters, I should say.
Okay.
And so, hey, can we handle something
in Latin America
[00:06:30]
and the Middle East at the same time?
Here, these guys are actively going into
a thing that we have been worried about
our whole lives voluntarily.
Yeah.
Don't forget Noble Mobile
saving you a ton of money.
So a lot of people are signing up now
and beginning to realize what the hell?
[00:06:46]
Why am I paying so much
to Verizon and AT&T?
So your bills only $50 a month, but it
can actually be less because they give
you money back if you don't use your data.
So if you're paying more than $50,
there's no reason to not switch.
It's crazy not to switch because
same phone, same number, same contacts.
Literally nothing changes. Titcomb.
[00:07:02]
Slash switch tt.com/switch.
All right. We'll be right back.
Not like oh, hey, it broke out in China
and it broke out in Latin America.
We don't have a choice.
We're gonna have to fight
on two different fronts, right?
They're like, let's create for no reason
this kind of type of thing.
[00:07:18]
All right, now, guys, Cuba is super weak.
Like, don't get me wrong,
it's not like I think,
oh, if you go into Cuba, they somehow have
some amazing military capabilities
and they're going to shoot down every no.
Right.
So but I'm a gambler and I know the odds
[00:07:36]
of something going wrong.
Okay.
And, and the odds are if you take
enough risk, it is absolutely inevitable.
Okay. It approaches 100%.
So does that mean that we're going
to get involved in a quagmire in Cuba?
Probably not. But I don't know.
[00:07:53]
Are we going to go on the ground?
That's mental.
Like, don't get me wrong,
I don't like these regimes.
If somehow we magically convince
the Cubans through sanctions or blockades
or whatever we did
and whatever was bad was bad.
But now they go, you guys are right.
We're just going to democracy.
[00:08:09]
You don't have to, you know, attack us
and we're going to change our own regime.
We're going to go to democracy instead.
Oh, I would love that. Great.
Wonderful.
I would but but usually
the world is not magical, right?
So what happened in Venezuela
was slightly magical.
[00:08:24]
That was actually a rare piece
of intelligence work where we somehow we
convinced the people under Maduro
to work with us if we took out Maduro.
So now he thinks that's normal.
I actually I'm not sure
I've ever seen that happen before.
[00:08:40]
Right.
What happens normally
is something goes wrong.
And then then you get into
a little bit of fighting
and then you get into a lot more fighting.
And next thing you know, you got troops
on the ground in Iran and in Cuba,
and all of a sudden Venezuela attacks.
[00:08:55]
And then wait a minute,
China goes to take Taiwan
and the whole thing devolves, right.
So, so far, Trump in his life has been the
luckiest person, maybe in the history of
the world, at least that I've ever seen.
He does things wrong
time and time and time again.
[00:09:12]
He does a couple of things right.
No question.
That's how he got to be president.
He's great at grabbing the spotlight.
And in politics
that makes all the difference, right?
So but on everything else he's a clown.
So now my experience is
and we'll see how it plays out,
[00:09:28]
that if you take this many risks,
at some point one of them catches
up with you, and then another one and then
another one, and it devolves dramatically.
So right now things are already bad,
but they have not evolved dramatically.
This is not what I'm talking about.
[00:09:43]
I'm talking about the next level
when something goes deeply wrong,
because we took way too many risks.
And attacking Cuba
would certainly be the most gratuitous,
needless risk of all time, especially
in the middle of a war with Iran.
Yeah, yeah.
[00:09:59]
And I think a related sort
of possibility is,
Things go wrong all the time around Trump.
He just doesn't necessarily
he's not necessarily the person
who pays the consequence for it.
Like his Covid response went wrong.
He's still alive.
[00:10:14]
Hundreds of thousands of Americans aren't.
He wrecks the economy.
He's richer than he's ever been.
Lots of people lost literally everything
and are doing really badly right now.
So it's possible that, you know,
taking Cuba would be relatively easy.
But it also, as you says,
emboldens China to invade territories.
[00:10:31]
It emboldens Putin
to invade another country.
And that could go really badly for people
whose last name, regrettably, isn't Trump.
Yeah.
And by the way, the Russians
and the Chinese are loving this
because especially the Russians,
they're like, oh, you made us deplete
our entire military in the Ukraine.
[00:10:46]
And you thought that was cute.
All right, great.
We can't wait for you to deplete all of
your resources and your military in Iran
and now maybe Cuba and Venezuela.
All right.
I mean, they couldn't have asked
for a bigger gift than this.
Yeah.
Every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets his wings.
[00:11:02]
Totally not true, but it does
keep you updated on our live shows.
