1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: Richard, good morning, very good morning. I've got mid afternoon

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: New Zealand time for the ultimatum to end.

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,120
Speaker 2: Right, so it asked to be then right. Threats being

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 2: traded by the US Iran yes, over this energy infrastructure situation.

5
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:16,919
Speaker 2: At the start of week four of the war. Iran

6
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:20,960
Speaker 2: says it will quote unquote irreversibly destroy essential energy sites

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 2: across the Middle East. This says Iranian missiles are struck

8
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,159
Speaker 2: two Israeli cities, hitting housing blocks and leaving dozens of

9
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 2: people injured. Does Iran have the ability to follow through

10
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: on that threat not clear. T Ihran also fired long

11
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 2: range missiles for the first time, as we've been hearing,

12
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 2: towards the US British base at Diego, Garcia. One of

13
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 2: these missiles fell short, the other was intercepted, but it

14
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 2: raised concerns that Iran had proceeded with longer range missiles,

15
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,160
Speaker 2: pallistic missiles with a range of some four thousand kilometers.

16
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 2: All this has occurred after that deadline set by Trump

17
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 2: on his social media post yesterday giving Iran the forty

18
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 2: eight hours to open the Strait of Hormuz or the

19
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 2: US would quote hit or obliterate Iranian power plants, starting

20
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 2: with the biggest one. First, he said, Iran's biggest plant

21
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: seems to be it's only operating nuclear power plants. User

22
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 2: not clear if that was the reference. Nuclear power plants

23
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 2: have been considered off limits because of the obvious environmental dangers.

24
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 2: As to the state of the war right now, Scott Besanty,

25
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 2: Trump's secretary for the Treasury, was sent out today and

26
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 2: he offered.

27
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 3: This, sometimes you have to escalate to de escalate.

28
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 2: Right, Can someone explain that to me? Yeah? So as

29
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 2: clear as mud basically, at least rhetorically, Iran is showing

30
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 2: no sign of surrendering, as Trump once demanded. US military

31
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 2: is hitting sites along the strata for moves. More American

32
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 2: troops are being sent to the region, with Sebessants saying,

33
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: as well.

34
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 3: As President Trump always does, he's leaving all options on

35
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 3: the table again.

36
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 2: No announced the season yet from Trump, the exit of

37
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 2: Waits as you've been suggesting, But will he take it

38
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: and what level of chaos is left behind?

39
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: Speaking of chaos, US is going to sort the airports,

40
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: are they?

41
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh? Yeah? Can things get much crazier? We've

42
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 2: seen up to a third of airport security agents skipping

43
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 2: work to find other ways of making some money when

44
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:08,519
Speaker 2: they haven't been paid for more than a month, thank

45
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 2: you very much. As we've seen, folks are missing flights

46
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 2: because the security weight lines that some spots mean you

47
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: have to stand the line for three four five hours

48
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 2: to get through the chick ins. So far, travelers are

49
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 2: incredibly frustrated, but philly well behaved. What can you do?

50
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 2: Says one.

51
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 3: I've never seen anything like that, so many people and

52
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 3: it was wrapped around everywhere you could possibly look.

53
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 2: It's because of the partial government shut down. As Dems

54
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 2: and Republicans fight over rules for ICE immigration agents in

55
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 2: the future. Should they wear those awful masks unlike regular police.

56
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: Should they have badges so people know who the hell

57
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 2: they are. Should they be able to barge into people's

58
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: houses without any court warrant? So yeah, here is the

59
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: new idea. Starting tomorrow, ICE agents will be deployed to

60
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: some US airport says the borders are Tom Homan.

61
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 4: I've seen the signed up many airports across the country already.

62
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 4: They do a lot of investigation cro investigation smugger a report.

63
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 2: So from smuggling investigations they would now want pet people

64
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,239
Speaker 2: down and checking your luggage, says Homan.

65
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 4: I don't see an ICE station's looking at an X

66
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 4: ray machine because not trained in that. There are certain

67
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,239
Speaker 4: parts of security that TSA's doing that we can move

68
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 4: them off those jobs and put them in the specialized

69
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 4: jobs help move those lines.

70
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 2: But he says, if they see anyone they think is illegal,

71
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 2: they could arrest them on the spot. This is the

72
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: plan to ease travel chaos. Democratic leader Hakim Jeffrey says.

73
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 3: We believe that taxpayer dollars should be used to make

74
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 3: life more affordable for the American people, not brutalize or

75
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 3: kill them or violently target law abiding immigrant families, which

76
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 3: is what we know ICE agents have been doing.

77
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 2: So yeah, what possibly could go wrong?

78
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: All right, right, we'll see when's the Richard Donald's sitside.

79
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: By the way, Biston also said you can buy Russian oil.

80
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: You buy Russian oil and Iranian oil. Now, how mad

81
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: it's got? Meantime, Trump invoked emergency pals. He's approved twenty

82
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: three billion dollar worth of sales of arms to the

83
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: uae Qwait and Jordan. CBS News Radio has been closed down.

84
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: Six percent of their staff are being laid up. The

85
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: whole radio division eleven hundred is being shutted. This is

86
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: what's the name, Barry, whatever a name is the CBS

87
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: paramount whole thing anyway, They have also been the United

88
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: States been downgraded in the Democracy Watch over the weekend

89
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: the Varieties of Democracies Institute v DEM Research Group out

90
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: of Sweden. Freedom of expression in the US is now

91
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: at its lowest level since the end of World War II.

92
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,359
Speaker 1: Trump promised to manufacturing boom I read over the weekends,

93
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: and Whirlpool people got laid off Whirlpool as in washing machines.

94
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 1: So far since he's become president, the manufacturing boom isn't

95
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: turning out to be quite the boom they thought it was.

96
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 1: They at last count, lost one hundred thousand jobs, so

97
