Trump Jsut Called on Iranian to 'Rise Up and FIGHT' - Signaling The End is Near
Wednesday, September 2, 2026
Donald Trump has now told the Iranian people to “rise up and fight” as he declares Iran’s economy is collapsing and says the United States has “almost total control” of the Strait of Hormuz.
Is this the biggest turning point in the Iran war yet?
Rabbi Pesach Wolicki joins Erin Molan to explain why he believes the Iranian regime is panicking, why Iran’s latest actions around the Strait of Hormuz may have accidentally revealed just how much leverage Tehran has lost, and why Trump’s dramatic shift away from negotiations toward openly encouraging the Iranian people to rise up could signal a major new phase of the war.
Wolicki also explains how he reads Iranian state media to identify what the regime is trying to hide, the tanker story he suspected was propaganda before CENTCOM disputed the Iranian account, and why he believes the Islamic Republic may now be on a path toward collapse.
But there is one major question still unanswered: if Iranians return to the streets, will the United States or Israel actually protect them from the IRGC and Basij?
Later, Erin and Rabbi Wolicki turn to JD Vance, Tucker Carlson and the future of the Republican Party. Wolicki explains why he does NOT expect Vance to distance himself from Tucker’s political movement, why he believes Vance is a true believer in that worldview, and why Republicans could face a major decision heading toward 2028.
