Topic: Uss Enterprise

CNN's Aaron Burnett reports that the U.S. Air Force has readied 20 "Massive Ordnance Penetrator" (MOP) bombs built by Boeing to target Iranian underground bunkers. Despite the bombs weighing 30,000 pounds, officials are already planning upgrades to ensure they can reach deeper facilities. The hosts link this buildup to reports of Iran developing missiles capable of hitting the USS Enterprise in the Persian Gulf.

The hosts speculate that the aging USS Enterprise may be intentionally sunk in the Strait of Hormuz to create a pretext for war, noting it is cheaper than dismantling the nuclear vessel. They compare this potential scenario to the plot of the TV series "Rubicon," which involved sabotaging American vessels for economic gain. Historical precedents like the Gulf of Tonkin and the sinking of the Maine are cited as examples of similar "scams."

The hosts acknowledge executive producers and donors, including a veteran who served on the USS Enterprise during Operation Praying Mantis against the Iranian Navy. The segment concludes with a performance of the "Gitmo Nation National Anthem," a recurring musical feature of the show.

The USS Enterprise, an aging nuclear-powered aircraft carrier slated for decommissioning, has been deployed to the Straits of Hormuz. The hosts speculate that the ship's eight nuclear reactors make it a high-risk asset that could be used in a "false flag" operation to justify military action against Iran. Historical precedents like the USS Maine and the Gulf of Tonkin incident are discussed.
