Fox News Turns on Trump After Iran Reversal
Where this was said
Netanyahu's New Nuclear Warning and the Missing Venezuela Billions
At 12:38 · chapter starts 11:37
Just when it seems like the Fox News circus can't get more surreal, Meiselas introduces the next act: Benjamin Netanyahu is reportedly on his way to Washington. According to Israeli media, Netanyahu plans to present Trump with intelligence — from Mossad — claiming Iran has recalibrated its nuclear arsenal. This, despite the fact that just weeks earlier, the Trump administration was claiming to have completely obliterated Iran's nuclear capability. Meiselas calls it Twilight Zone territory — the same nuclear alarm being raised again and again to push Trump toward military action. From there, Meiselas pivots to a Fox News segment on the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, where a guest named Riggs inadvertently admits that Biden's SPR strategy was financially savvy. Meiselas then raises a more troubling question: at least $13 billion received from Venezuela by the Trump administration is unaccounted for, and no one — not the Treasury, not the media — seems to be asking where it went.
According to Israeli media, Netanyahu is travelling to the US to tell Trump that Iran has recalibrated its nuclear arsenal and is on the verge of having a nuclear weapon.
Despite claims in June 2025 that Iran's nuclear program had been obliterated, Netanyahu is reportedly travelling to Washington to tell Trump that Iran is once again on the verge of a nuclear weapon. Ben Meiselas calls it a Twilight Zone repeat of old manipulation tactics.
Ben Meiselas claims at least $13 billion received from Venezuela has disappeared with no clear accounting of where the money went.
A Fox News financial guest admitted on air that the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is at 'tank bottom.' Ben Meiselas argues this is another reason Trump cannot sustain a prolonged Iran conflict — the country is running low on both weapons and oil.
