1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,080 Speaker 1: Last night at the eleventh hour, the President announced that 2 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 1: there had been a negotiated two week cease fire with Iran, 3 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 1: and just to cement the thing, he published on his 4 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: social media accounts the official statement from the Iranian government. Interesting, right, 5 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: So here it is this year official statement of Iran 6 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: dated and it says pay close attention to the words 7 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 1: because the way this statement got reported by CNN very different. 8 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:34,599 Speaker 1: They added a lot of extra to it. All right, 9 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: So here's what the actual statement is. On behalf of 10 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: the Islamic Republic of Iran, I expressed gratitude and appreciation 11 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 1: for my dear brothers, he Prime Minister of Pakistan Sharif 12 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 1: and he Field Marshall Muner for the tireless efforts to 13 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 1: end the war in the region. In response to the 14 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: brotherlyly request of Pm Sharif in the tweet, and considering 15 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: the request by the US for negotiations based on its 16 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: fifteen point proposal as well as announcement by POTUS about 17 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: acceptance of the general framework of Iran's ten point proposal 18 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: as a basis for negotiations, I hear by declare on 19 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: behalf of around Supreme National Security Council if attacks against 20 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: Iran are halted. Our powerful armed forces will cease their 21 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: defensive operations for a. 22 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: Period of two weeks. 23 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: Safe passes through the Strait of Hormus will be possible 24 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 1: via coordination with Iran's armed forces and with due consideration 25 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: of technical limitations. Signed, said Abbas Aragachi, Minister of Foreign Affairs, 26 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 1: Islamic Republic of Iran. It was a pretend Persian accent 27 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: I gave you, by the way, I hope you picked 28 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: up on it. All right, So that's the statement, very clear, 29 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 1: very straightforward. And pay close attention to the fact that 30 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: they are considering the fifteen point proposal, and the President 31 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: said that he accepts for a general framework Iran's ten 32 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: point proposal as a basis for negotiation. All right, That 33 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: doesn't mean we agree to your ten points, right, it's 34 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: a framework for the basis of negotiation. Here's what a 35 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: framework of a basis of negotiation. Okay, let's have a negotiation. 36 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: I agree to your ten points as the basis. Now, 37 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: let's actually negotiate, all right? On point number one? Hell no, 38 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: point number two? Oh oh, hell no? On point number three. Well, 39 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: I don't have enough hells in my no to deliver 40 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: to you. See that's the basis of a negotiation. Okay, 41 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: So that's how everybody should read this statement that the 42 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: president put out. Now here's how CNN described the exact 43 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 1: same statement that I just read to you. Iran claims victory. 44 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: All right, So did you see any part of that 45 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: statement that claimed victory. I didn't think. So says it 46 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: forced us to accept ten point plan. Ron says, it's 47 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 1: achieved a great victory and forced the United States. By 48 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 1: the way, do you notice the great victory is not 49 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,399 Speaker 1: in quotation marks, Like if they actually had somebody from 50 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: Iran in a powerful position who is actually going on 51 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: the record saying that we are claiming great victory. We 52 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 1: claim great victory, then they would have put that in 53 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 1: quotation marks. 54 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 3: No. 55 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: No, no, that's the CNN reporter writing that into his article. 56 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 1: Iran didn't just get a victory, they got great victory. 57 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: Arod says, it's achieved a great victory and forced the 58 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: United States to accept its ten point plan according to 59 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: a statement from Iran Supreme National Security Council. Report by 60 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 1: Iranian state media. Oh well, it was reported by Iranian 61 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: state media. Everybody, so that makes it newsworthy. All right, 62 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: So CNN's argument here is, hey, guys, we're just reporting 63 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: what they reported. We're just reporting what they said. Okay, 64 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: but who's they literal propagandists. This is literally the propaganda 65 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: arm for a terrorist state that is trying desperately to 66 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 1: save face to the rest of the world in wake 67 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: of this ceasefire, where they were begging the United States 68 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: not to continue its bombing campaign. So CNN, by their 69 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: own admission, their excuse for publishing this is that, hey, guys, 70 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: don't blame us, We're just regurgitating propaganda from the terrorists. Okay, 71 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with that. That's totally newsworthy. That's CNN as 72 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: part of the plan in the US has in principle 73 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: agreed to lift all primary and secondary sanctions against Iran 74 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: and to withdraw US combat forces from all bases in 75 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: the region. 76 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 2: That's not true, None of that is true. 77 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: But then see they say, the Council said, so don't 78 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: don't blame us if this is fake. We're just reporting 79 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 1: what the council said. Okay. Tomorrow night, CNN is going 80 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: to do a two hour special about people who think 81 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 1: we didn't land on the moon, right, and it was 82 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,039 Speaker 1: really a plot by the Israelis to distract from the 83 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,679 Speaker 1: Epstein files. How did they know about the Epstein files 84 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty nine. Don't ask questions. We're not here 85 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: to deliver facts. We're just repeating what they said. It's news, 86 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: after all, they said it, so that makes it news. 87 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 2: That's CNN. Okay. 88 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: So presidents saw that and he was not too pleased. 89 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: Here here's what he posted. The elect statement put out 90 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: by CNN World News is a fraud and CNN well knows. 91 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: The false statement was linked to a fake news site 92 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: from Nigeria and of course immediately picked up by CNN 93 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 1: and blared out as a legitimate headline. The official statement 94 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: by Iran was just released and posted on truth below. 95 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: That's the statement that we showed you. Authorities are looking 96 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: to determine whether or not a crime was committed on 97 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: the issuance of the fake CNN World statement, or was 98 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: it a sick rogue player. CNN is being ordered to 99 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: immediately withdraw this statement with full apologies for there as 100 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: usual terrible reporting. Results of the investigation will be announced in 101 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 1: their future. President Donald J. Trump furthermore unofficial Trump on 102 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: X No one can believe that fake news CNN put 103 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: out a knowingly false and dangerous statement, pretending it came 104 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: from the upper levels of the Ranian government. 105 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 2: It didn't. 106 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,679 Speaker 1: It was totally made up and posted as a headline 107 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: for purpose of perhaps inflaiming a very delicate situation. It 108 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: was a new trouble making sure from Nigerian CNN just 109 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: got caught cheating, a very dangerous thing to do. The 110 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: rapid response forty seven account said, attention to CNN International, 111 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 1: as the president just said or arounds. Official statement is 112 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: linked to his truth below and posted by the Iranian 113 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: foreign Minister. This alleged statement by Iran is a fraud. 114 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 1: Correct this immediately. Okay, So now what's CNN going to 115 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: do now? CNN claimed that they did nothing wrong. CNN 116 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: claimed that, oh sure it wasn't the official statement from 117 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: the foreign minister, but they got this official statement from 118 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: this other council in Iran. They claimed total victory and 119 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: was at odds by the way with the official statement. 120 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: So what do you do if you're a news organization, 121 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 1: if you're a journalistic endeavor, if you're. 122 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 2: A reporter for a school. 123 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: Newspaper, what do you do when you have two conflicting statements, 124 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: one from this agency and one from this agency, both claiming. 125 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 2: That it's true. 126 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: Well, at the very least, before you publish anything, you 127 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: figure out which one is true. 128 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: At the very least. 129 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: If you want to do less than the least, then 130 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: publish both of them and say, well, they're conflicting reports. 131 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: One side is saying this, one side saying that the 132 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: problem is both sides are on the same side. But 133 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: the one thing you definitely don't do if you're CNN 134 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: is if you publish what the president put out. You see, 135 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: you have to choose to believe somebody here. You can 136 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,239 Speaker 1: either believe the duly elected president of the United States, 137 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: the head of the executive branch of the freest country 138 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: on the planet, the commander in chief of our armed 139 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: forces who is engaged in the high level negotiation for 140 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: a ceasefire. You can believe him, or you can believe 141 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: the terrorists in Iran. CNN chose who to believe. They 142 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: are not on our side. They don't even pretend to be. 143 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: They continue to claim that they did nothing wrong. It 144 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: was perfectly well in line with their journalistic standards, except 145 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: for this later in the evening, when you go to 146 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: look for the post that they put out. You got this. Now, 147 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: that's weird. If they did nothing wrong and they follow 148 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: their standard journalistic procedures, why would they then remove the post. 149 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 2: Well, let's let. 150 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: Aaron Burnett explain it all to us, because why would 151 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: she lie breaking news. 152 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 4: Iran's foreign minister just responding to Trump's ceasefire announcement. I 153 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 4: want to read part of it to you, He says, 154 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 4: if attacks against Iran are halted, our powerful armed forces 155 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 4: will cease their defensive operations for a period of two weeks. 156 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 4: Safe passage through the Strait of Horror moves will be 157 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 4: possible via coordination with Aram's arm forces and with due 158 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 4: consideration of technical limitations. Obviously those words are crucial there, 159 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,199 Speaker 4: and the Supreme National Security Council of Iran has also 160 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 4: issued a statement that I have here, and I'll just 161 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 4: share you a couple of the important lines here. One 162 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 4: of them is that the regulated passage through the Straight 163 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 4: of Horror moves under the coordination of the armed forces 164 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 4: of Iran, thereby conferring upon Iran a unique economic and 165 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 4: geopolitical standing, which sounds like in a translation Iran saying 166 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 4: that they see this as acknowledgment that they control the 167 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 4: straight of hor moves. Let's go to Zacharco in our 168 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 4: national security. 169 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,319 Speaker 1: So again, if you can polish a turd and make 170 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: it look as terrible as possible for the United States 171 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: of America Donald Trump by extension, and try to make 172 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: it look as brilliant and wonderful and do the bidding 173 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: of a terrorist state spewing propaganda. Aaron Burnett just did that, 174 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: That's what. And these are all choices, friends. They make 175 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: choices in how they present the news. I make choices 176 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: on how I present the news too. And maybe she's 177 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: making choices because she knows that the vast majority of 178 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: our audience hate Trump and thereby don't want America to succeed. 179 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: Here could be, but at least they should be honest 180 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,959 Speaker 1: about that, right, I mean, you heard the statement. Is 181 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: there anything in there that suggests that the United States 182 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: is conceding in any way whatsoever that Iran now controls 183 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: the Strait of Hormus. No, however, just in terms of 184 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: the reality of the situation, they shut down the Strait 185 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: of Hormos, and now they have opened the Strait of Hormoves, 186 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: whether they've been granted some political acknowledgment or not, which 187 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: they have not the reality of the situation is that 188 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: short of absolutely devastating a huge amount of civilian population 189 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: and engaging our military at a next level that we 190 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: were not yet prepared to engage in, if we could 191 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: negotiate out of it, the reality on the ground is 192 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: their military did in fact shut down the Strait of 193 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: Horror moves, and we have now negotiated for their military 194 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: to open up the Strait of horror moves lest they 195 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:14,080 Speaker 1: be destroyed by our military, which we could do, but 196 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: it would have been much more dangerous and there would 197 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: have been much more loss of life. It would have 198 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: been a bigger military commitment, and for now the president 199 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: was looking for another alternative. Now that's one way to 200 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: report the story, and reON Burnett, of course in CNN 201 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: four reasons only they can explain, decided to report the 202 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: story the way you just saw it, and then they 203 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: had a very important conversation about it. 204 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 4: Curity reporter here, Zachary, what are you learning about this. 205 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 4: We're just getting these dual statements, one from Foreign Minister 206 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 4: Abbas Rajji and also from the Supreme National Security Council 207 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 4: that I just shared. Part of what else stands out 208 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 4: to you here. 209 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, Aaron, the piece of this about the straight of 210 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 3: Horror moves really is the most remarkable thing. I think 211 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 3: that jumps out immediately and says Pakistan has submitted the 212 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 3: same to the American side. Said plan emphasizes fundamental matter 213 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 3: inter Allah, the regulated passage to the straight ofhorm Moose 214 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 3: under the coordination of the armed forces of Iran, thereby 215 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 3: conferring upon Iran a unique economic and geopolitical standing so effectively. 216 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 3: That's reiterated in the tweet as well, saying that at 217 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 3: least for the period of two weeks, the straight of 218 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 3: or Moose will be open effectively, though with coordination via 219 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,319 Speaker 3: the Iranian military. And it's important people to remember that 220 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 3: the stratiform Moose was not controlled in a literal sense 221 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 3: by Iran prior to those US joint Israeli joint military strikes. 222 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. 223 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 1: And again I just want to point out, and I 224 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: hope you caught it that when analyzing the statements, and 225 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: Aaron Burnett said, well, what do you make of it? 226 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: We've got these dual statements here. Their expert reporter immediately 227 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: went to the propaganda's statement that they decided was the 228 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: more compelling document. Why because they can pin the narrative 229 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: that Trump has lost something here all right now. Yesterday 230 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: on the program, I pointed out to you one last 231 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: little nuggative news that we learned at noon yesterday, eight 232 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 1: hours before the deadline, and that was China had been 233 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: brought in to the discussions and brought into the engagement. 234 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 1: It's true the straight of horror moves was wide open 235 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,839 Speaker 1: before this military campaign. Why well, because there's a whole 236 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: bunch of oil and a whole lot of other product 237 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: they could shipped through that straight of horror moves. 238 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:18,199 Speaker 2: Not to us. 239 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: We don't give a crap about it. China does. China 240 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:27,080 Speaker 1: cares big time. China's been suffering because of this. China 241 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,839 Speaker 1: was done. China called whoever is picking up the phone 242 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: over there in Tehran and said, Yo, guys, get this 243 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 1: taken care of again. We all deliver the news however 244 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: we wish to, based on the facts and information we 245 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: have in front of us. Fact check me if you 246 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: don't believe what I'm telling you. But China was a 247 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: major player in this big lee and so now they 248 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: have some relinquishment of these strait of horror moves and 249 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: the military strike there once again. Our marines are right 250 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 1: there and poised and ready to go. But short of that, 251 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: we're going to go for two weeks now and see 252 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: if we can make a permanent resolution. If not, as 253 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 1: President Trump said yesterday, we're just going to be hanging 254 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: around to watch what happens now. The President literally five 255 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: minutes ago posted once again about CNN's atrocious coverage last night, 256 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: because you know, it's a problem if you've got propaganda 257 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: being delivered to the American people and people internationally. Here's 258 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: what he said, Numerous agreements. Listen, letters are being sent 259 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: out by people that have absolutely nothing to do with 260 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: the USA or negotiation. Let me pause here for a minute, 261 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: and let me pretend that I'm a producer or editor 262 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: or some kind of person in authority at CNN, assuming 263 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: they still have standards and practices there, and before they 264 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: go to press on their website or before they go 265 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: live on the air with a news report, they actually 266 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: run it by some channels where tough questions are being asked. 267 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 2: Okay, just pretend CNN does that. 268 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: Since I have that position on a website and I'm 269 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: called upon to ask these questions sometimes, and since I 270 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: certainly have this position as the executive editor of this 271 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: program because I ain't going to say something that I 272 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: don't think is beneficial or fact based to my audience. 273 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: Let me credibly take on that role for a moment. 274 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: All right, I'm your CNN executive Hey erin, Hey guys, 275 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: can we just have a quick meeting here before we 276 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: go to press and publish this article, before we go 277 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: live on the air and talk about these two dueling 278 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 1: statements here. We've got one statement from the Foreign Minister. 279 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: The President has published that statement, so clearly that's an 280 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: indication that these are the people that the President has 281 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: been negotiating with. Now this other group that you've got 282 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 1: to put out a statement first of all? Is that 283 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: the only other statement? Or are the other statements coming 284 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: out from organizations, groups and entities in Iran? 285 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 3: Oh? 286 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: There are a couple of more too. Okay, but we 287 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: got this one right. Okay, So let me ask you 288 00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: a question. Who's in charge of Iran right now? I mean, 289 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: who's legitimately negotiating on behalf of Iran? 290 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 2: Do we know? Do you know firsthand? Okay? 291 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: So any group trying to fill the power vacuum in 292 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: the chaos of Tehran, right now where you know, fifty 293 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: or more of their leaders have been killed in these 294 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: military strikes where the government and the power is kind 295 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: of up for grabs right now, any group can sort 296 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: of posture and pretend like they have authority and they're 297 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: in charge. Right, Am I wrong again? I'm just asking 298 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: the questions here. I'm your producer. I don't want to 299 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: go to air if it makes us look bad. So 300 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: why are we going with this statement? Why do we 301 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: think that? How do we know that we're not being 302 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: used as a tool for these guys to try to 303 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: seize power in Tehran? Do you know those things? Does 304 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 1: anyone here think CNN thought this through? Does anyone here 305 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: think that CNN went through any basic standards and practices 306 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 1: before they publish this article? May I just remind you 307 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 1: what that article looks like right now on their website. 308 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: It looks like this standards and practices. There is a 309 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 1: power vacuum right now in this country, in Iran. There 310 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 1: are competing interests and organizations all trying to usurpentake power 311 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: because it is chaotic. Who is the president of the 312 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: United States and his negotiators negotiating with this guy? 313 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:35,199 Speaker 2: How do we know? 314 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: Because the President published the statement, what's the operational statement 315 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: on behalf of the Iranians with regard to this ceasefire? 316 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 1: That statement is How seriously and credibly should we take 317 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: any other statements? Not very much until we have firsthand 318 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: knowledge and understanding that in fact, those other organizations are 319 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: in fact speaking on behalf of the Iranian government, which 320 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: we don't back to the president's statement, and in many 321 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: cases they are total fraudsters, Charlatan's and worse. They will 322 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 1: be rapidly exposed after our federal investigation is completed. There 323 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: is only one group of meaningful points that are acceptable 324 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: to the United States, and we will discussing them behind 325 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 1: closed doors during these negotiations. These are the points that 326 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: are the basis on which we agreed to a cease fire. 327 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: It is something that is reasonable and can be easily 328 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: dispensed with. It's very much like fake new CNN last 329 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: night headlining a source that had no power or authority 330 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: to write a letter claiming great authority. President Donald J. Trump, 331 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: I just want to remind you that when given the 332 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: choice on who to believe, they decided to believe the 333 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 1: terrorists who made Trump and the United States look as 334 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 1: worse as possible of the worst they could possibly make them. 335 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: They make choices in the news business, and that was 336 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 1: certainly a choice. And listen, you have every right to 337 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: believe Aaron Burnett if you want, but just understand there 338 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,400 Speaker 1: are other choices that they made on the program last night, 339 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: like what guests to have on to react to this ceasefire, 340 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 1: and they chose this guy, Chris Murphy. 341 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 4: Please stand out here. One the safe passage that Trump 342 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 4: is saying is going to be provided for two weeks 343 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 4: as part of this kind of the central part of 344 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,199 Speaker 4: it through Hormuz. They're saying it's possible via coordination with 345 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 4: Iran's armed forces, which obviously implies that Iran controls the Strait. 346 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 4: And then from the National Security Council they say this 347 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 4: confers upon Iran a unique geopolitical, economic, and geopolitical standing. 348 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: Till you notice what's happening here. Not only is it 349 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 1: Chris Murphy who's invited onto the show, but he's asked 350 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: to react to not the official statement the President Trump 351 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: put out saying, Yeah, this is the guy we've been 352 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 1: dealing with. This is the language of the ceasefire. Here's 353 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: the official statement they're having Chris Murphy react to the 354 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: unverified statement from this group that they don't even know 355 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: if they had any party to the ceasefire. You see 356 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: what's happening here. Do you see how they deliver the 357 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: news to you? Do you see how they try to 358 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: manipulate you with the way they deliver their news. And 359 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: they're all very serious about it. They're very serious when 360 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 1: they promote propaganda, anti American propaganda, which is exactly what 361 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: this is in. 362 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 4: Terms of them regulating passage to the Strait of horror MOUs. 363 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 4: So what do you hear in all this? 364 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 5: I mean, listen, who knows what's going on? Donald Trump 365 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 5: lies every single day. Clearly he's not telling the truth. 366 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 5: But if you accept even part of the Iranian statement, 367 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 5: donald Trump has agreed to give Iran control of the 368 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 5: Strait of Hormuz, that is extraordinary. If you go deeper 369 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 5: into the statement from the Iranian National Security Council, they 370 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 5: claim that Trump has also agreed to Iran's right to enrichment, 371 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 5: to suspend all sanctions against Iran, and to allow Iran 372 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 5: to keep their missile program, their drone program, and their 373 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 5: nuclear program. Well, who knows if any of that is true, 374 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 5: But if at the very least, this agreement gives Iran 375 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 5: the right to control the Strait. That is cataclysmic for 376 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 5: the world. And it is just stunning that that's where 377 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 5: we have gotten to. That Donald Trump took a military 378 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 5: action that has apparently, at least for the time being, 379 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 5: given Iran control over a critical waterway that they did 380 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 5: not have control over before the war. 381 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: Begans all right, so again, and I'm sure you saw 382 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 1: it because you're smart and you get plugged in and 383 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: you know how we deliver the news and analyze how 384 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: the media delivers the news to you. 385 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:38,440 Speaker 2: But you saw what happen. 386 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: First statement from Chris Murphy is well, Trump lies all 387 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 1: the time, so you can't believe anything he said, and 388 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: even if part of the Iranian statement is true, this 389 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 1: is extraordinary. They've completely defeated us, were humiliated on the 390 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: world stage. Trump has done this, Trump has done that. 391 00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 1: And at no point did he say that the Iranians lie, 392 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 1: At no point. No, he saves that characterization and vitriol 393 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 1: an attack to the American president. So you asked Chris 394 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: Murphy right now, and I'd love for Aaron Burnetta, did 395 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: she should have leaned in? He said, well, wait, a second, 396 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: Trump saying this, and this Iranian Supreme Security Council is 397 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:19,919 Speaker 1: saying this. 398 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 2: Who do you believe? Who do you think is lying 399 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 2: that questions never asked. They're not on. 400 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 1: Our side, They're really not, and they're not even on 401 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: the side of truth, and just sort of laying out 402 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: facts and delivering them to you so that you can 403 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: use your brain and your reasoning power to sort of 404 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: sort through it all. Seems to me that when the 405 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: President puts out a statement that is endorsed by and 406 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: signed by the Foreign Minister of Iran. 407 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:49,640 Speaker 2: That's got some weight. 408 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 1: That should probably have a little bit more weight in 409 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 1: terms of what the basis of these negotiations were than 410 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 1: some random thing that the President immediately disabout and said 411 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: wasn't true. But no, then they had hours of discussion. Wow, 412 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: we're not sure, but let's bring in Chris Murphy because 413 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,919 Speaker 1: he'll be really sober and really measured in how he 414 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: analyzes it. Go ahead, Chris Murphy, what's on your mind tonight? 415 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: But ultimately, this is about the people who present the news. 416 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 1: Chris Murphy's going to be Chris Murphy. He is who 417 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: he is. But CNN Aaron Burnett, well, you know, maybe 418 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,640 Speaker 1: it's me. I think that they should have a higher standard. 419 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 1: They're not supposed to be partisan politicians trying to attack 420 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: us and attack our president. But well, our friend Western Lensman, 421 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: is it Western Lensman or mays May's our friend mays 422 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: May's more on x We subscribe to his account. You 423 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: should too. Put together a real nice reminder of how 424 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: Aaron Burnett delivers the news and how the facts shift 425 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: and change to accommodate whatever mood she's in to attack 426 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Here she was before the twenty twenty five 427 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: airstrike against the nuclear facilities. Here she is after those strikes, 428 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: and then here she was before the strike a month ago. 429 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 4: This timeline of Iran being a few weeks away from 430 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 4: a nuclear bomb is in direct contradiction to CNN's reporting. 431 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 4: According to US intelligence assessments, Iran is three years away 432 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 4: from being able to produce a nuclear weapon if they 433 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,360 Speaker 4: wanted to. So the facts on Iran getting a nuclear 434 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 4: weapon do not bear out the claim at the heart 435 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 4: of what has put the world on the verge of 436 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 4: World War Uran's uranium may still be intact and in 437 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 4: Iranian control, four hundred and eight kilograms of it now 438 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 4: enough theoretically, according to experts, to make nine nuclear weapons, 439 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 4: only set back the Iranian nuclear program by months. We 440 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 4: got to call it like it is. It's a big deal. 441 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 4: Sources tell CNN there is no US intelligence that Iran 442 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 4: is building missiles that could soon hit the United States. 443 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:47,880 Speaker 4: That's a really big deal. 444 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 2: Okay, So that's Aaron Burnett. 445 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: That's three different Aaron Burnett's reporting on Iran's capabilities, three 446 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: different ways, each of which to accommodate her desire to 447 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: attack Donald Trump. And it's striking when you see it 448 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 1: side by side again the initial attack against the ren 449 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: nuclear facilities she was railing against. 450 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 4: Because why now, this timeline of Iran being a few 451 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 4: weeks away from a nuclear bomb is in direct contradiction 452 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 4: to CNN's reporting. 453 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 1: Wow, well, god forbid, we contradict CNN's reporting because CNN's 454 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: reporting has a better handle on the intelligence on the 455 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: ground about Iran's capability for a nuclear weapon. It's in 456 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: contradiction to CNN's reporting. I cannot believe they even formed 457 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: those words and put them in a teleprompter. So she 458 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: goes on to say that there's no reporting to suggest 459 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: that Iran is close to getting any kind of nuclear weapon. Now, 460 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: then after the strike, you'll remember the President's had huge success. 461 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: And then they had one anonymous leaker from inside the 462 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: Pentagon saying, oh, I don't think we did much damage 463 00:25:55,119 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: to their nuclear capabilities at all. Remember that. And suddenly 464 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,760 Speaker 1: so that became the story. We did nothing, We didn't 465 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 1: hurt them. They're charging full steam ahead with their nuclear program. 466 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:08,959 Speaker 1: You know, the nuclear program we just told you they 467 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: didn't have and didn't warrant the military strike. 468 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 2: Now, the military strike. 469 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: Was a failure because now they can move forward with 470 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:17,439 Speaker 1: their nuclear program. 471 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 4: Uran's uranium may still be intact and in Iranian control, 472 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 4: four hundred and eight kilograms of it now enough theoretically, 473 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 4: according to experts, to make nine nuclear weapon. 474 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, they Our CNN reporting says that this entire mission 475 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: was useless and not necessary because they're not even close 476 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,640 Speaker 1: to making a nuclear weapon, and that a week later. 477 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 2: They could make nine nuclear weapons. Why didn't we stop them? 478 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: This is CNN. Oh and then right before this latest 479 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: strike where we were trying to knock out their missile capability, Chris. 480 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 4: Is tell CNN there is no US intelligence that Iron 481 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,719 Speaker 4: is building missiles that could soon hit the United States. 482 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: Two weeks after that statement, Iron launched a missile to 483 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: Diego Garcia in Ireland with a base controlled by the 484 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: United Kingdom of the United States. The distance of Diego 485 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: Garcia from Tehran is the same distance to every one 486 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: of our allies in Europe. It's true, can't reach the 487 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: United States, but pretty close. Pretty close. Indeed, that's CNN, 488 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: what a night they had. And again, I just want 489 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 1: to remind you, it's the fog of war. Governments lie, 490 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: they do, including ours.
