US to Arabs: Huck You | DeProgram with Ted Rall and John Kiriakou

Political cartoonist Ted Rall and CIA whistleblower John Kiriakou deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM EST.

Today we discuss:

• Mike Huckabee, U.S. ambassador to Israel, prompted condemnation from Arab leaders after he suggested approval for a Greater Israel stretching across the Middle East from Egypt to Iraq. Asked if Israel had the right to the lands from Egypt to the Euphrates River he replied, “It would be fine if they took it all. But…they don’t want to take it over, they’re not asking to take it over,” he added. What if Israel were to ask?

• U.S. stock futures fell after Trump said he’s raising his global tariffs to 10%, and then 15%, following the Supreme Court’s decision to strike down the president’s “reciprocal” tariffs. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures dropped 250 points, or 0.5%. Gold prices jumped.

• It’s the fourth anniversary of the Russo-Ukrainian War.

• France summons the US ambassador to express harsh displeasure at a State Department statement about Quentin Deranque. Foreign affairs minister Jean-Noel Barrot said: “We reject any instrumentalization of this tragedy, which has plunged a French family into mourning, for political ends. We have no lessons to learn, particularly on the issue of violence, from the international reactionary movement.”
