Video: Rick Scott: More Bombing Needed in Iran Until Regime Change

Rick Scott: More Bombing Needed in Iran Until Regime Change

Oct 23, 2026

The Capitol Signal segment reports on Sen. Rick Scott’s Oct. 23, 2026 appearance on Fox Business, where he argued that while U.S. and Israeli strikes have devastated Iran’s economy and degraded its military, further bombing will be required to eliminate its remaining capabilities and achieve regime change. Scott described Iran’s leadership as intent on destroying the U.S. and Israel and cited briefings received during his recent trip to Israel, Cyprus, and Greece. He defended President Trump’s military decisions as necessary to protect American lives and praised the Israeli Defense Forces. The report is based on Scott’s direct quotes with no additional named experts or opposing viewpoints. Graphics or B-roll are not referenced in the transcript; the throughline is that the campaign against Iran is incomplete and will take time.

Steve Forbes urges Trump to destroy Iran's oil exports and arm dissidents to topple regime

Aug 5, 2026

Steve Forbes opens by criticizing President Trump's announcement of negotiations with Iran aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz and addressing its nuclear program, arguing it signals weakness. He claims Iran's regime has not changed, retains goals to destroy Israel and the US, and is exploiting US midterm-election concerns over oil prices. Forbes asserts the regime believes it is winning despite damage, leveraging control over the Strait of Hormuz and Houthi actions in the Red Sea. He calls for completing destruction of Iranian targets, blocking all export routes including seizing Kharg Island oil facilities, and arming military dissidents to convince them the US is committed to regime change. Forbes dismisses Libya-style chaos concerns, stating Iran is currently the source of regional instability.
