Pat Gray is here, on the Blaze Radio Network.

**Pat Gray** (0:14)
Thanks for joining us, another busy day ahead. A lot to get into.
And we're going to start out with exactly where we stand on Iran. We've been back and forth a little bit, but now it's been laid out. We know exactly what's going on, when it will happen, when the end is, what we've been waiting for this. Yes.

**Stu** (0:35)
Okay.

**Jeffy Fisher** (0:36)
Awesome.

**Pat Gray** (0:36)
Here's what President Trump updated us with yesterday.

**Stu** (0:39)
All right.

**Pat Gray** (0:42)
And it goes a little something. They don't have it.

**SPEAKER_7** (0:45)
I'll try.

**Pat Gray** (0:46)
Wait, wait.

**SPEAKER_7** (0:46)
This will work. You're facing an opponent right now in Iran that has refused to submit.
You seem optimistic now that you may be closer to a deal. What's different about this moment now than in other moments where a deal has seemed close?

**Donald Trump** (0:59)
Well, why do you say they refuse to submit? You don't know that. You don't know what's going on.

**SPEAKER_7** (1:03)
They were firing on US ships a few days ago.

**Donald Trump** (1:05)
Yeah, I know. A few days ago. It's a long time ago. You know, in the world of war, a few days ago. No, they want to make a deal badly.
And we'll see if we get there. If we get there, we can't have nuclear weapons, you know. It's very simple. But what's not to submit? So they had a Navy with 159 ships, and now every ship is blown to pieces.

**Pat Gray** (1:23)
Heard this.

**Donald Trump** (1:23)
And lying at the bottom of the war.

**Jeffy Fisher** (1:25)
Yeah, we'll keep hearing them.

**Donald Trump** (1:26)
They had an Air Force, lots of planes, and they don't have any planes. They don't have any anti-aircraft.

**Pat Gray** (1:30)
Heard this.

**Donald Trump** (1:31)
They don't have any radar left. Their missiles are mostly decimated. They have some. They have probably 18, 19 percent, but not a lot by comparison to what they had. And their leaders are all dead.
So I think we won.
Now it's only a question of, look, if we left right now, Iran, it would take them 20 years to rebuild. You would call that, we're in good shape, right? We're in good shape. And now we're doing well. Now we have to get what we have to get. If we don't do that, we'll have to go a big step further. But with that being said, they want to make a deal. We've had very good talks over the last 44 hours. And it's very possible that we'll make a deal.

**Pat Gray** (2:16)
Oh, good. All right. There you have it. Clear as a bell.
We've heard, I think, every one of those items we've heard before.

**Jeffy Fisher** (2:27)
Yes.

**Pat Gray** (2:28)
All of it.

**Jeffy Fisher** (2:29)
And yet it's still 429 at the gas pump when I drive by in the morning.

**Pat Gray** (2:32)
It was only 429?

**Stu** (2:34)
Hold on a second.

**Pat Gray** (2:34)
Hold on.

**Stu** (2:35)
That's interesting you said that. Because I checked GasBuddy this morning, and the oil prices are collapsing. At least for right now. It'll probably spike again later today. Can you put up the graphic there? So look at this. This is interesting. So it looks like some gas stations have gotten the memo while others haven't. This is all within two miles of where we are here in Irving, a 76 cent spread.

**Pat Gray** (2:58)
449?

**Stu** (2:59)
449 at the highest.

**Pat Gray** (3:01)
Down to 373

**Stu** (3:03)
So hang on. Don't fill up on your way to work. Try to get it on the way home. We're in Weimar Republicedville right now, you know?

**Jeffy Fisher** (3:09)
No kidding.
I had a guy pull up behind me yesterday at the Walmarts and the Walmarts was like 376, I think. Something like that yesterday for regular. And he asked me, what's the regular price? What's the regular price? And I was like, dude, it's 376 Okay, fill it up. Fill it up. Fill all your cars. And I was like, okay, thank you.
Appreciate it.

**Stu** (3:36)
Now there was no, it's 440 down to it.

**Jeffy Fisher** (3:38)
Well, he was talking about the price down the street. They just fill it up, bro. It's okay.

**Stu** (3:42)
There was a blockade runner, an Iranian blockade runner trying to make it through yesterday. And the Navy shot out its rudder.

**Jeffy Fisher** (3:50)
Good.

**Stu** (3:51)
Next time, next time it's gonna be more than the rudder. So there you go.
