HELL DRIVER | Day 205 | Trump annihilation threat | UN shame | Lapdog Burnham | Morocco votes
MOATS with George Galloway
September 23, 2026
Hell driver. Trump talks annihilation. The UN looks on in shame. Day 205 and the road to war is getting darker. Trump’s annihilation threat throws the Iran crisis back into the danger zone as the world asks whether Washington is bluffing, breaking down, or preparing something far worse.
Speakers Garland Nixon, Margaret Kimberley, Lance, Wayne, Loris, Jack Rasmus, Terrence, Yves, Matt Weinglass
Garland Nixon (0:00)
Good evening, my name is Garland Nixon, and I'm standing in for the great George Galloway. You're watching The Mother of All Talkshows, and we've got a great show ahead. We've got Margaret Kimberley from Black Agenda Report. We've got The Homeless Left's own Matt Weinglass, and of course, the brilliance of our resident economist, I guess, or one of our resident economists, Dr. Jack Rasmus. And we're gonna talk about Donald Trump's rather embarrassing speech yesterday as he humiliated the empire and himself. And of course, as he set the empire on course for a potential tragedy and threatened literally 90 million people with annihilation.
As an American, I'm embarrassed, I'm afraid, I'm concerned, and we're gonna have some really bright people on to talk about this. We're gonna take your calls. We're gonna check out our poll, and I think within this two-hour period, we'll get it all resolved. We'll be right back.

Hello, Garland Nixon, and welcome to the Mother of All Talkshows, where we've got a great show ahead for you. And we're gonna work on things here. We're gonna settle things. We're gonna fix things. We've got a great poll today. Will Trump nuke Iran? No, I mean, it's not a happy poll, but it's an interesting poll because we want to find out what you think right now. We've got Telegram. 32 percent yes, 68 percent no. We've got X says 30 percent yes and 70 percent no. And the YouTube community, 29 percent yes, 71 percent no. I guess that's we're basically 70, 30 so far. We don't have anything from Patreon yet, but it's going to be interesting to see what people think about this. Additionally, we've got the phone numbers. You can be a part of the show and that's an important part of the new media and that is that you can be a part of it. Whether it's you're watching the YouTube show or whatever, you can be in the chat, you can be a part of it. Well, here you can actually call in from the US. It's plus 1-855-50-MOATS or 855-50-66287 in the UK.

And we sit here, particularly in the United States, but worldwide, because there is certainly the threat of a nuclear war. At the conjunction of crises, the American empire has two lost wars. They're in the process and the throes of losing two wars, one in Ukraine and another in West Asia. And you could, to some extent, argue that they're both part of the same conflict, an attempt by the empire to hold on to power that it no longer has. A fight against a modernity, the world is changing. It is the nature of the world that great powers rise and fall, and great powers can fall either comfortably and respectably and peacefully, or in the instance as we're experiencing with the United States in a chaotic, hectic, and quite honestly frightening manner.
We're facing an economic catastrophe, and all of these things are inextricably linked because the economic catastrophe clearly comes as a result of the US empire trying to dominate West Asia, trying to dominate the oil-rich area of the world, so that they can maybe cut off China, control the prices, perhaps get more money, so they can deal with a $43 trillion debt. The US empire is in deep and serious trouble. And of course, and we're going to discuss this too, internal uprising. We're starting to see pushback, mainly because of the economic pain in the diesel prices. And we're seeing moves that would lead one to believe that the imperial powers are concerned about internal uprising. And as a result, we're seeing mass surveillance increase. And of course, there are those of us who believe that President Trump's latest plan for some kind of a imperial Rome style arch, equipped with drones and snipers, would not be aimed at an army from God only knows where that would be marching into DC, at least not a foreign army, that those snipers and drones, etc. may be aimed at quelling internal uprising of people who don't have things like, I don't know, food, jobs, gas, and a place to live. So let's go over President Trump's speech. Yesterday at the United Nations, Donald Trump gave a speech, if you could call it that.
It certainly appeared to be coherent, although absurd, perhaps it was written. I would guess that Stephen Miller, the resident psychopath, who is one of the chief voices in the Trump administration had a hand in this. But let's talk about some of the highlights or I would argue lowlights.
