This is the cabinet meeting me. I'm 19 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 4: Tony Katz. The show is Tony Katz today. Guys, Glad 20 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 4: you're here. I greatly appreciate it. I thought there was 21 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 4: a deal. I thought there was a deal but then 22 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 4: there was no deal, and then there was a conversation. 23 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 4: Then who knows if there's a conversation. Then there was 24 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 4: a fifteen point plan, and Caroline Levo was like, what 25 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 4: fifteen point plan? What are you talking? Crazy? Talk with 26 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 4: their fifteen point plans. All of a sudden she became 27 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 4: Kevin Meani, that's not right. What do you mean fifteen 28 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 4: point plan talking crazy? Now crazy? I say, oh, man, 29 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 4: if you don't know who Kevin Meanie was, you're gonna 30 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 4: have to I don't know. Just there's some Google or 31 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 4: something you can do and and and learn your you 32 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 4: learn your comic history. And now we've got the cabinet meeting. 33 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 4: We've got Trump talking about all the good things that 34 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 4: have been done against Iran and why it's necessary you 35 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 4: can't allow these lunatics to uh to be in a 36 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,959 Speaker 4: uh to be in charge. And here's Steve Woodcoff saying, hey, 37 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 4: we know what you wanted to do, but uh yeah, nope, nope, nope. 38 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 3: Throughout our meetings with the Iranians, we heard the following 39 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 3: from them, the Iranians have the inalienable right to enrich. 40 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 3: Then we heard they possessed enough sixty percent enriched material 41 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 3: four hundred and sixty kilograms to make eleven atomic bombs. 42 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 3: Finally we heard the following statement, they would not give 43 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 3: up diplomatically, but we could not win militarily. 44 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 4: Now, before we go any further, as Steve Whitkoff, who 45 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 4: is the Middle East Envoy, and he's been doing all 46 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 4: the negotiations, whether it's it's the Middle East and gazen Humas, 47 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 4: or whether it's it's Iran, whether it's it's Russia. I'm 48 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 4: supposed to believe Joe Kent on everything, including its private 49 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 4: conversations with the late Charlie Kirk. I'm supposed to believe 50 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 4: Megan Kelly and Tucker Carlson on everything because they've got 51 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 4: the real inside knowledge. But I've got Steve Whitkoff telling 52 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 4: me that the Auanians said that they were at sixty 53 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 4: percent in richeranium and eed ninety percent for weapons grade, 54 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 4: and all of a sudden, I'm not supposed to believe 55 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 4: that they weren't on their way to a nuclear weapon. 56 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 4: You see, I consider sixty percent to be imminent, and 57 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,799 Speaker 4: I know that there are those on the political left 58 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 4: who are like, well, what is imminence? That's that doesn't 59 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 4: even mean anything. I've got losers on the walk right 60 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 4: that do the same thing. If sixty percent isn't imminent 61 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 4: to some people, well okay, I can't help them. I 62 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 4: guess beauties in the eye of the beholder. But these 63 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 4: are the kinds of weirdos that think imminent is right 64 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 4: after the bomb hits your house. I mean, that's a 65 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 4: stupid way to engage foreign policy. I think that that's 66 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 4: an embarrassing and altogether pathetic way to think about safety 67 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 4: and security. You know, you have a nation that calls 68 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 4: you the Great Satan. You know you have a nation 69 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 4: that wants to inflict arm you have a nation that 70 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 4: already engages in terrorism. You're gonna wait until they're ninety percent. 71 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 4: Just do me a favor. If you're one of those people, 72 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 4: and I don't think you are, but we'll talk about them. 73 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 4: If they're one of these people, I appreciate them letting 74 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 4: us know who they are now, so I never vote 75 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:23,839 Speaker 4: for them or listen to them, because that's that's really 76 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 4: dumb to wait until the after you handle things now, 77 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 4: And I will, in this argument take Steve Whitcoff's word 78 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 4: for it. 79 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 3: In other words, they were again miscalculating the success of 80 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 3: Midnight Hammer, which was a total success. These are incontrovertible signs, 81 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 3: among many other signs, Sir, that their regime had not 82 00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 3: given them negotiating to authority to make a deal by you. 83 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 2: We conferred with you and all the. 84 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 3: Other members of your foreign policy team, Susie Wilds, Pete 85 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 3: heg Seth, the Chairman, Marco Ruvio, Jay d Scott, Pissent, 86 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 3: Chris Wright, John Radcliffe throughout all of these negotiations, and 87 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 3: we were repeatedly rebuffed on everything we asked for it. 88 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 4: I just want to note I'm hearing this for the 89 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 4: first time. I actually saved it. This happened a little 90 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 4: bit earlier, and the cabin meeting is still going on. 91 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 4: But I saved it because I want to share all 92 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 4: the parts of it I can with you. I know 93 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 4: that people will share clips. I think it's important to 94 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 4: hear everything because when you hear everything, you kind of 95 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 4: pick up on things that maybe other people don't. You 96 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 4: notice he goes to that whole list. I don't think 97 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 4: he mentioned Telsea Gabbart. Did I miss that? He goes 98 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 4: to the list of all the people that they conferred with. 99 00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 4: I don't think he said, Telsea Gabbard, should we start 100 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 4: a poll or you know, a pool, not a pole, 101 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 4: a pool. Uh, there's got to be a way to 102 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 4: do this online, producer Land and I'm putting you in 103 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 4: charge of this. How what is the day that Tulsa 104 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 4: Gabbard leaves the administration? Yeah, there's got to be a 105 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 4: way to do this. We need this. The Tulsie TikTok, 106 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 4: the countdown to Goodbye Tulsie. It's not that I think 107 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 4: she's done a bad job. The conversation about her was 108 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 4: would she be willing to provide full intelligence assessments to 109 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 4: the president if it means he's gonna go down a 110 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 4: road that she disagrees with, Because there's clearly roads that 111 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 4: she disagrees with. And now she's not a part of 112 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 4: these things. By the way, it's not even necessarily that 113 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 4: she is a part of these things. But there's this 114 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 4: feel that she's on the ounce. There's this feel that 115 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 4: that that she's she's just on on the on the edges. 116 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 4: There just she's going to hold the job as long 117 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 4: as you can have the job, because what's the point 118 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,679 Speaker 4: of leaving until you're asked to leave? But he did 119 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 4: not mention it. Telsey Gabbard, I. 120 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 3: Have no doubt that we exhausted all efforts on behalf 121 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 3: of the peaceful resolution as you directed, Jared and I 122 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 3: both agreed that the Iranians were there to buy time 123 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 3: until a weaker president arrived. This was a Flaud's strategy, 124 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 3: as your clear direction was to never allow Iran to 125 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 3: obtain a nuclear weapon today for any time in the future. 126 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 2: Against that back. 127 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 3: Drop and our compelling military successes in Epic Fury, we 128 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 3: have had multiple reachouts from the Reasons to. 129 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 4: The president and it means he's going to go down 130 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 4: a road that we want. 131 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 3: To play a role in ending this conflict peacefully. I 132 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 3: can report to you today that we have, along with 133 00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 3: your foreign policy team, presented a fifteen point action list 134 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 3: that forms the framework for EPISIO. 135 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 2: This has been circulated through the Pakistani. 136 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 5: Government acting as the mediator, and this. 137 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 3: Has resulted in strong and positive messaging in talks, as 138 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:17,959 Speaker 3: you just indicated. 139 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 2: To the press. 140 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 4: So there is a fifteen point plan. So when Caroline 141 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 4: Levitt was asked about it, there might have been some 142 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 4: deception there or she didn't know. So there is a 143 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 4: fifteen point action plan now we are told that the 144 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 4: Iranians rejected this. They called it maximalists, unreasonable and one sided. Well, yeah, 145 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 4: that's what happens when we're asking for your complete and total, 146 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 4: nonconditional surrender. The Iranians responded with a five point counterproposal. First, 147 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 4: they want snat. They're looking for some nice like eighty 148 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 4: eighty five percent cacao dark chocolate. That's very very important 149 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 4: to them. Only Fiji water, Only Fiji water at the table. 150 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 4: They like the square bottles. Also a halt to us. 151 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 4: It is rarely aggression and assassinations of Iranian officials. We 152 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 4: want chocolate water. And also, please stop killing us. We're 153 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 4: dying so fast. And I know it's not a thing 154 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 4: to mock, is it? But a what a negotiating standpoint 155 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 4: we start with? Stop killing us? They want guarantees against 156 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 4: future attacks, payment to war reparations and end to hostilities 157 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 4: across all fronts, and international recognition of Iran's sovereignty over 158 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 4: the Strait of Hormuz. Oh that's a I want to 159 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 4: play third base for the Mets. But we don't always 160 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 4: get what we want, now do we? Boo boo? Also, 161 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 4: who the hell is negotiating? Who is negotiating this plan. 162 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 4: I know who's doing it from the American side, who 163 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 4: the bloody heck is doing it from the Iranian side, 164 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 4: Back to Steve Wikoff. 165 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 3: But these are sensitive diplomatic discussions, and you have directed 166 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 3: us to maintain confidentiality on the specific terms and not 167 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 3: negotiate through the news media as others do. I can 168 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 3: say this, We will see where things lead and if 169 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 3: we can convince Iran that this is the inflection point 170 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 3: with no good alternatives for them other than more. 171 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 2: Death and destruction. 172 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 3: We have strong signs that this is a possibility, and 173 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 3: if the deal happens, it will be great for the 174 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 3: country of Iran, to the entire region and the world 175 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 3: bit large. 176 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 5: Your policy of. 177 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 3: Peace through strength is the most effective tool for a 178 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 3: diplomatic resolution gear, just as it was as this policy 179 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 3: was an effective tool in each and every one of 180 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 3: all of the other conflicts you settled in your first year. 181 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 3: Iran is looking for an off ram Following your powerful 182 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 3: threat on Saturday. Your indications that you were willing to 183 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 3: listen to peace proposals have been well received. You have 184 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,599 Speaker 3: instructed us that your preference is always peace and that 185 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 3: we should make that our priority. We have delivered that message, sir, 186 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 3: along with fifteen points to piece. Finally, we have told 187 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 3: Iran one last string, don't miscalculate again. 188 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: Thank you very much. Shit did you in your great job? 189 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 4: Now? One of the things that keeps getting discussed, you'll 190 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 4: note is that, oh man, the Iranians were really good negotiators. 191 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 4: We hear this a lot, and it comes from a 192 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 4: never back down philosophy, which is cultural. They'll say anything 193 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 4: here and then they'll do something different, you know, underneath, 194 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 4: and they'll save face over here. And they're putting out 195 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 4: videos and propaganda videos. None of this is surprising nothing 196 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 4: the Iranians say, because again we don't know who these 197 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 4: people are. We don't know who the leadership is. 198 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 2: There was. 199 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 4: What's his name, that's it Tengsiri, commander of the Islamic 200 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 4: Revolutionary Guard Corps. And he's the guy who said, let's 201 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,679 Speaker 4: close the straight up our moods, or at least make 202 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:55,479 Speaker 4: it difficulty for ships to go through dead. He graduated 203 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 4: up dead. He was in a disclosed location, a private 204 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 4: local dead. Don't these Iranians know, ain't nothing about them 205 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 4: as private. It is clear that between the Israelis and 206 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 4: the United States we know when every bowel movement is 207 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 4: taking place, and we probably know how long it is. 208 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 4: They have no where to run, they have no place 209 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 4: to go to, but they're trying to say face every 210 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 4: single step of the way. This is going to lead 211 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 4: us to the question of what in the world does 212 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 4: a deal because if the regime remains, if their ability 213 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 4: to continue with the Islamic Revolutionary guardcore, if their capacity 214 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 4: to engage in terrorism in any way still exists, even 215 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 4: if we take out the nuclear threat, I'm sorry, we 216 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 4: did not complete the task, and we're going to be 217 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 4: back at this someday sooner rather than later. The President 218 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 4: may see it differently than me and say that, you 219 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 4: know what, but ending the nuclear threat, that's what I 220 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 4: said I was going to do. That's what we did 221 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 4: done here. You're welcome everybody, But who in the world 222 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 4: is actually like engaged in the negotiation from the Iranian side, 223 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 4: Who in the world is actually putting themselves out there 224 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 4: now as a leader? We must be talking to someone, 225 00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 4: that much, I would concur on. But it is clear 226 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 4: that we don't know who the someone is, and that 227 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 4: I think steviates from heritage. Who was on the show, 228 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 4: was here on yesterday. Yeah, I think his argument is correct. 229 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 4: I was gonna say rather impressive. I mean, he's got 230 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 4: an impressive bio. We don't actually know who it is, 231 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 4: and that's because we want this person to stay alive. 232 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 4: We want this person to stay alive. There's someone willing 233 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 4: to talk, and if you let people know who it is, 234 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 4: that person is going to get wrecked. So maybe you 235 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 4: don't let us. You don't let known who it is 236 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 4: until you need to. But if there's a negotiation point 237 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 4: of they get to keep the straight of the straight 238 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 4: of Horror moves and everyone has to pay a tax 239 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 4: in order to bring their oil through. No, no, no, no, no, 240 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 4: that's gonna no. Meanwhile, the USS Tripoli is near there, 241 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 4: and you've got the British Royal Navy that is going 242 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 4: to start making sure that tankers can get through the 243 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 4: strait freely. Does whatever's left of this Iranian fighting force 244 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 4: really want to take on more enemies? Maybe we're gonna 245 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 4: find out. I've got more from the cabinet meeting. Keep 246 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 4: it here. I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Kats today. 247 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 4: The White Plague. I'm so scary that kids off all 248 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 4: of my chin I'm not talking about Jennifer Welch. Oh, 249 00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 4: she's the she's the leftist podcaster. Who is you know, 250 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 4: maybe it wasn't plastic surgery. Maybe she was born that way. 251 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 4: Who am I to judge. I'm not going to judge. 252 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 4: I'm going to note that the things that she says 253 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 4: are just horribly daft. But she is not the White Plague, 254 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 4: although I think that's a great name for her. Tony Katz, 255 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 4: Tony Katz today, good to be with you. The White 256 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 4: plague is on the rise in the US. It's deadlier 257 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 4: than COVID and becoming antibiotic resistant. We're talking about tuberculosis. 258 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 4: How tuberculosis is making a comeback. It's now back to 259 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 4: being the world's deadliest infectious disease. And even though it's 260 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 4: not really a big deal in the US, cases have 261 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 4: been going up since twenty two. Now if you ask 262 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 4: me why, well, let's discuss how this ties in to 263 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 4: a legal immigration, how this ties into allowing people into 264 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 4: the country when you don't vet who they are. You 265 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 4: have people coming from countries that aren't as sanitary, don't 266 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 4: have the advances in medicine, so they deal with diseases 267 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,120 Speaker 4: we have long forgotten about or don't have to pay 268 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 4: attention to on the regular and you see the increases. 269 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 4: This is not surprising. What is surprising is that in 270 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 4: a world where you're not allowed to say China virus 271 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 4: or Spanish flu, you can still say white plague. That's 272 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 4: I think that has to be dealt with because I 273 00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 4: want to know why this is okay. I was told 274 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,959 Speaker 4: specifically that these are the kinds of things that are 275 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 4: bigoted and wrong. Also, we shouldn't take lightly what it 276 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 4: is that tuberculosis is and the problem that could cause, 277 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 4: and how it spreads in the air, how it's becoming 278 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 4: antibiotic resistant. It is something to pay attention to, and 279 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:30,680 Speaker 4: a reminder when the Left says nobody is illegal, they're 280 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 4: cool with the diseases, that's them, not us. This is 281 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 4: Tony Kats today, the cabinet meeting. And you never know 282 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 4: when you're going to learn something from a cabinet meeting. 283 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 4: Tony Kats, Tony Kats today, because President Trump will say anything, 284 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 4: oh is that classified, whatever, let's talk about it like 285 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 4: they'll do every last part of it. No fear. I'm 286 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 4: not saying it's the best thing in the world. I'm 287 00:19:57,040 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 4: just saying he'll do it. But they have been speaking, 288 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 4: and it started with President Trump in a lot of 289 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 4: things to get to and it went to Vice President Events, 290 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 4: then to Marco Ruby. I'll share those things later. You 291 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 4: just heard from the middle as Envoy Steve Whitcoff. This 292 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 4: is Pete heg Set, the Secretary of War, Secretary of Defense, 293 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 4: depending on how you like to say these things. With 294 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 4: the update. That update is here, I'll start kind of where. 295 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 2: You left office. President. 296 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,679 Speaker 6: Thank you for doing the work of the free world 297 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 6: and having the courage to step up and stop the 298 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,160 Speaker 6: Iranian terror regime from holding. 299 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 7: The world hostage. 300 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 4: That's really what it is. 301 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 6: In twenty seven days ago, Iran had a modern military. 302 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 6: Never in recorded history as a nation's military been so 303 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 6: quickly and effectively neutralized. Operation Epic Fury is not an 304 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 6: endless war. It's a decisive campaign with clear objectives to 305 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:04,120 Speaker 6: destroy Iran's military, offensive military capabilities, and ensure they never 306 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 6: obtained a nuclear weapon. This is stuff for the history books, 307 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 6: this is stuff for legacy. Mister President, you are acting 308 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 6: now to ensure future generations. 309 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 5: Do not have to live under the threat of a 310 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 5: nuclear arm Uran. 311 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 4: Great, but could we focus on what's happening and not 312 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 4: focus on the stroke and could we've just not I 313 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 4: hear you. I understand Trump's issues. You gotta do this 314 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 4: thing because you're getting that thing. I live in the 315 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 4: real world. But now let's get into it. Enough enough enough, 316 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 4: I don't deny we have a president who's like, yeah, 317 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:45,719 Speaker 4: we have to do something about this. Let's go do it. 318 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 4: I do. Look at the people who are screaming from 319 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 4: the woke right, well, it's just doing the bidding of Israel. 320 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 4: You are weak, sad, little people. No thanks, the same 321 00:21:57,840 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 4: people as that with a president can't do this. It's 322 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 4: uncaus he needs Congress to declare war. Yes, you do, 323 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 4: but the War Powers Act gives him this right. He 324 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 4: is well within his timeframes of this. There is no question, 325 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 4: which is why you don't see the political left screaming 326 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 4: about the War Powers Act unless they're making little mini 327 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 4: comments on social media to rile up the fools who 328 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 4: follow them on social media. But where are we in 329 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 4: this thing?

You're either informing the American people 333 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 6: of the truth or you're not. 334 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 7: Because I hear it from. 335 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 5: My people every day. 336 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 6: Behind every headline you write, there's a helicopter crew in 337 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 6: the air. And behind every news banner you right, there's 338 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 6: a battalion on the move. 339 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 5: And behind every fake news story there's an. 340 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 6: F thirty five pilot executing a dangerous mission. 341 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 5: My message in the media is get it right. 342 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 2: This actually isn't something new to me. 343 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 6: Maybe a young guy that's your president, but I'm not 344 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 6: a rookie in this realm. 345 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 2: In two thousand and seven, in two thousand and seven. 346 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 6: I helped lead the surge, the public fight for the 347 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 6: Iraq Surge. Stood and watch people stand in the Senate 348 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 6: and declare the war is lost. 349 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 5: Before you even started. 350 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 4: Who was that? 351 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 5: It was Harry Reid. 352 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 6: That was the Democrats and the media working hand in glove. 353 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 4: Back then it was. 354 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 6: Three years into a war. Now we're three weeks into 355 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 6: in operation. But see, unlike Iraq, this isn't to tie. 356 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 6: This is not parody, this is not chaos. This is success, 357 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 6: pure American success on plan and as the President said 358 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,879 Speaker 6: ahead of Pace, over a ten thousand enemy targets, destroyed, 359 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 6: over one hundred and forty I think, now you're right, 360 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 6: miss President, over one hundred and fifty naval vessels, sunk 361 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 6: underground facilities, destroyed, their defense industrial base and shambles, and overnight, 362 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 6: not only do they not have a navy mister President, 363 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 6: they no longer have a navy commander. 364 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 5: IRGC's navy commander was killed over now you're in operation, 365 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 5: so no navy leader. 366 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 6: Now that he's Here's the thing about the media, though, 367 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 6: if President Trump had not acted, you'd be streaming why not, 368 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 6: And now that he has taken decisive action, you're asking, well, 369 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 6: why did you? 370 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 4: And Trump's next, So he's like, that's true, that's true. 371 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 4: Pete's right, that's totally true. This is why we listen 372 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 4: to all of it, because just as he starts with 373 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 4: way too much in the platitudes, there is nothing wrong 374 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 4: with an excoriating of a media that really does seem 375 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,919 Speaker 4: desperate to say, oh, it's over, Oh it's lost. And 376 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 4: you would think that's just a Democratic party, but I 377 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 4: repeat myself, they're desperate to this idea of it's over, 378 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 4: you've lost, it's done, it's finished. It's nonsensical, it's embarrassing. 379 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 4: They hate Trump more than they love the country every day. 380 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 4: That has to be understood and that needs to be shared. 381 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 4: You can't run a country that way. You can't run 382 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 4: a country that way. You cannot run a nation by 383 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 4: hating an elected official more than you love the people 384 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 4: you're there to serve. You can't start with I hate 385 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 4: the people. Now let me go help them. Can't be done. 386 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 4: So let's say so. And let's notice when they do this. 387 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 4: Let's notice how absolutely brutally hateful they are. This war 388 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 4: is over, this war is lost. It's a cluster. Trump 389 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 4: can't do this, lou You can't win in the Middle East. 390 00:25:55,400 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 4: And well, we should ask ourselves what winning is because 391 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 4: I think I have a different view of it than 392 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 4: President Trump. I think what he sees as a win 393 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 4: is different. 394 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 6: But Baxpeede Hesath, it's the same old tired playbook TDS 395 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 6: in your DNA. But the hard working, god fearing, patriotic 396 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 6: Americans out there no better. 397 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 5: And you alluded to this President. 398 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 2: Obama as president. 399 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 5: Here's a fact that you don't hear on your networks. 400 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 6: But we know many of the Iranian military factories and 401 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 6: bases that we're systematically destroying were paid for by the 402 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 6: paletts of American cash that Barack Obama flew into Tehran 403 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 6: under the Iran deal. 404 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 5: An you might call it an inconvenient truth. 405 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 6: Iran took our money and turned it into weapons and 406 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 6: bunkers and AMMO, And now we're destroying those weapons, and 407 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 6: we're writing. You're writing, mister President, that grievous wrong and 408 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 6: made no mistake. 409 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 5: We had to act, and our objectives are clear. 410 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 6: No nukes, no navy, and a complete dismantling of their 411 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 6: missile program and events industrial base. And as Marco pointed out, 412 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 6: that mission and the VP as well has not changed 413 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 6: since day one. Yet two days ago they shot two 414 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 6: failed missiles on a target four thousand kilometers away. 415 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 5: For years they told the world that their missiles could 416 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 5: only range two kilometers. 417 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 6: Surprise, yet again, Iran live and to the world, I 418 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 6: say in London is four thousand kilometers from Iran. 419 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 5: Washington, d C. Is thirty three hundred kilometers from Venezuela, 420 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 5: another country. President Trump did something about that, partnered for 421 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:40,199 Speaker 5: a long time with Iran. 422 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 4: Am I the only person amazed that Pete Hagsat talks 423 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 4: in metric kilometers are not miles? My only one who 424 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 4: noticed that. 425 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 6: No, okay, sure, So you're telling us that Iran is 426 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 6: not a threat to the world or to the US. 427 00:27:58,920 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 5: President Trump knows whether. 428 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 6: And here's what success actually looks like right now you 429 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 6: mentioned it, miss President. Eight ten warthogs, if you know them, 430 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 6: you love them, and apache helicopter gunships are flying strip 431 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 6: missions inside Iranian airspace and throughout the straight up our 432 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 6: moves at will see. You only send these slow, low 433 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 6: flying close air support platforms. 434 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 5: When the enemy has no meaningful air defenses left. 435 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 6: Their presence is proof that Iran's air defenses are gone. 436 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 6: Their command and control is shattered, their top leaders hiding 437 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 6: in underground bunkers while their mid level commanders are being 438 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 6: crushed in the field, The morale of their fighters plummeting. 439 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 5: And we see that disconnect daily. 440 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 6: They're privately admitting, as you said, mister President, very heavy losses. 441 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 5: We know that President Trump has given us a clear mission. 442 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 6: Our capabilities are only going up in Iran's are plumbing. 443 00:28:56,440 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 5: We are here to win, and we're full Stevens speed ahead. 444 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 4: I think the question, Secretary, he said, this is going 445 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 4: to be what is winning which we still haven't answered. 446 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 4: Somebody on the in the chat rooms, like the military 447 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 4: uses metrics. He's speaking in a cabinet meeting that's going 448 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 4: to Americans. I'm just saying that he used metrics. Was 449 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 4: was kind of jarring. I figured he would he would 450 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 4: break into miles there to make it easier for people 451 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 4: to to understand that was that was where I thought 452 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 4: he would go. That's what I was expecting from him. Now, 453 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 4: that is the latest from the cabinet meeting, and I've 454 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 4: gotten some more to get to. But I do have 455 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 4: some other stories that I want to get to. The 456 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 4: idea we will always be returning to what it means 457 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 4: to win. And this is where if you think that 458 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 4: Americans don't get a say in this, that's where it 459 00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 4: all falls apart. The people that I'm talking about, these 460 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 4: pathetic losers on the woke right, These pathetic losers name 461 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 4: Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut, and they are they are 462 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 4: just absolutely the It's not that they're they're not dumb. 463 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 4: They just are dumb. No, that's not the way to 464 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 4: say that. That's just that that is just rude. Their 465 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 4: positioning is about clicks. Their positioning is about a broken idea, 466 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 4: childlike idea of forever wars. Our positioning is, we're dealing 467 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 4: with this now. What is winning? A fine and legitimate conversation, 468 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 4: deep platform, no one dismiss many and then ask ourselves 469 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 4: what is it that we're looking for? Is is there 470 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 4: a consensus on this? Is there a consensus? Is the 471 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 4: consensus on winning? Well, they don't have a nuclear program. 472 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 2: We won? 473 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 4: Is it? My view, which is that the regime has 474 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 4: to be completely totally destroyed to never return. They cannot 475 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 4: be supporting terrorism, and no part of the regime can 476 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 4: run the country so that people can take over and 477 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 4: actually live free lives. I don't know where America is 478 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 4: on this. You can show me all the polling you want. 479 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 4: You could show me all the polling you want. I 480 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 4: don't know where Americans are on the concept of winning, 481 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 4: what it means to them, what that definition is. And 482 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 4: I think the President is in some ways purposely vague 483 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 4: so he can say, well, this was always my plan toldent, 484 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 4: I think that is probably where it's at. For me, 485 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 4: it's about the ending of the regime in Toto. For 486 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 4: others it might be about the nuclear For others, it 487 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 4: can be about something else. That is different than whether 488 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 4: or not you're going to be amongst these group of 489 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 4: people who are saying America is losing, America's failing, this 490 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 4: is terrible. You're doing Israel's bidding. Those are the people 491 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 4: rooting for failure and rooting for our military to fail. Yeah. 492 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 4: I have no respect for those people, and I don't 493 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 4: think we should make time for them. This is Tony 494 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 4: Katz today. 495 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 8: When the ring camera video surfaced and you could see 496 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 8: who that person was. Just tell me what you thought 497 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 8: when you saw when you saw those images of the 498 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 8: person who who took your mother. 499 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 4: She's just absolutely terrifying. 500 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 8: Okay, it's just totally terrifying. 501 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 4: That is Savannah Guthrie speaking on the Today Show to 502 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 4: hot Acotpy about the disappearance of her mother, Nancy Guthrie. 503 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 4: Tony Katz. Tony Katz today, when she said that she 504 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 4: was doing the interview, I said, they're going to do 505 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 4: it in over two days, and nothing is going to 506 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 4: get more watched. It's gonna be the most watched thing 507 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 4: thus far of twenty twenty six, no question. But it 508 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 4: was only later that I started asking myself, is did 509 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 4: somebody ask her to do the interview. Is this being 510 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 4: done purposefully as a way of trying to reach out 511 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 4: to the potential kidnappers, et cetera. Is anybody asking the 512 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 4: question when the Nancy Guthrie is still alive? I would 513 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 4: be if it was my mother, I'd be operating under 514 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 4: that pretense. Of course, my mother's so live. Gotta go 515 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 4: find it, we got to get it, we gotta follow 516 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,279 Speaker 4: this league. I do that, But I was one. I 517 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 4: was just looking at this like it's very very I mean, 518 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 4: there's nothing more high profiles. I was discussing. So was 519 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 4: this asked, like, is this something they're doing to try 520 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 4: and get someone emotionally or or maybe see if somebody 521 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 4: slips up and they can find information, if the parents 522 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 4: of people who are on TV or in the public eye, 523 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 4: if the family members are really up for debate. So 524 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,880 Speaker 4: the best use of the words that is frightening stuff. 525 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 4: Whether I agree or disagree with Savana Guthrie politically is 526 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 4: meaningless at this stage of the game. It is I 527 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 4: wouldn't want this for anybody. I don't wish this for anybody. 528 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 4: The end, I think that when you get the vote 529 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,240 Speaker 4: of no confidence, as the sheriff did there in Pema 530 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:10,720 Speaker 4: County in Arizona. The sheriff needs to resign, needs to resign. 531 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:21,439 Speaker 4: We'll see, we will see what happens. I just hope 532 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 4: they find your mother. This is crazed. Keep it here. 533 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 4: This is Tony Kats today. Lie from ball Hartbeiner and 534 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 4: the Crossroads of America. It's Tony Kats today.

But I mean there 542 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 4: are a couple of things to get to, a couple 543 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 4: of things to dig into. Let me bring in Ed 544 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 4: Morrissey of hot air dot com, where he is the 545 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 4: coppo to Tuoty Coppo over there. You have been doing 546 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 4: a fair amount of writing, young man, as you off do. 547 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 4: And I was going through some of the lists of 548 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 4: your writings. And before we get into what's going on 549 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:53,359 Speaker 4: with No Kings and what the Left has presented itself as, 550 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 4: whether it be regarding a ran or regarding a Department 551 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,240 Speaker 4: of Homeland Security and it's funding there as we still 552 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:04,760 Speaker 4: have four hour line getting to airports. Pentagon is ramping 553 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:08,839 Speaker 4: up for a final blow. What final blow? I mean, 554 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,839 Speaker 4: we've come to the place where we keep hearing this 555 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,439 Speaker 4: is the last straw, this is the last moment. Oh no, wait, 556 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 4: I'm going to give you a chance to talk to us. 557 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,440 Speaker 4: Is this Trump in a level of magnanimous like I 558 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 4: don't want to have to do this, or is this 559 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 4: Trump just playing a game and knowing that it's all 560 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 4: going to have to come to quite literally ending the IRGC. 561 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,839 Speaker 9: I think it's the latter, and I think that the 562 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,359 Speaker 9: delay that you've seen in the ultimatum regarding the strait 563 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 9: of her moves has been to allow him to assemble 564 00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 9: enough assets to do this final this final blow plan. 565 00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 9: This is from Axiosi's Barack Revide, who is reporting on 566 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 9: this at about the same time that they were doing 567 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 9: the televised cabinet meeting today the live cabinet meeting, and 568 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 9: he's reporting that there's. 569 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 7: Probably gonna be boots on the ground. 570 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 9: It will probably not be in the mainland, though it 571 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 9: will be on either Cargo Island and or other islands 572 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 9: that are actually within the Strait of hor Moves are 573 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 9: very close to it that Iran uses to control the 574 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 9: traffic that goes through the strait. Some of these are 575 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 9: disputed islands by the way, UAE claims sovereignty over a 576 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 9: couple of a couple of these islands, but Iran still 577 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 9: controls them at this point. And the question is which 578 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,439 Speaker 9: island will we actually land on? Will we actually put 579 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 9: boots on the ground, or we just simply going to 580 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 9: destroy all the facilities on a particular island, Or we're 581 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 9: going to see Carg Island, which is a long term 582 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 9: strategic target because that's where the Iranians export their oil, 583 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 9: or are we going to focus on the strait itself 584 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 9: and try to make sure that they. 585 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 7: Can't impact traffic. 586 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,319 Speaker 4: So let's talk Carg Island, because we had talked about 587 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 4: this on the show a couple of weeks ago, and 588 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 4: what the moves when we talked about it separately, and 589 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 4: you actually wrote about our conversation. I appreciated that if 590 00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 4: that they're going to send the USS Tripoli, which right 591 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 4: now we're told based on just as search is at 592 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 4: Diego Arcia in the Indian Ocean and making its way 593 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 4: it might have already left and be closer. Now, if 594 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 4: you're going to send twenty five hundred troops with the 595 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 4: USS Triple, if you're gonna send four thousand troops on 596 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,319 Speaker 4: these amphibious warships, it seems odd to me at the 597 00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 4: time that you would be talking about sending troops that 598 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 4: would take you ten to fourteen days to get there. 599 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 4: If you want to take carg Island, it's a sealed team. 600 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 4: It's something else Boom you take carg Island. Now, Steve 601 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 4: Yates of Heritage Foundation has been very clear that you 602 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 4: can't just take it. There might be some entrenched interest 603 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 4: there that'll be a little more difficult than we may realize. 604 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 4: What that doesn't mean, it's not insurmountable. It was the 605 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 4: idea of I'm not going to buy into it's going 606 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 4: to take you fourteen days to send troops over there, 607 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:45,799 Speaker 4: and you're not going to make a move earlier the 608 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 4: Deception game. It didn't work out that way. That was 609 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 4: my thought process at the time. But they really are 610 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,800 Speaker 4: setting them and it really is taking this level of time, 611 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,240 Speaker 4: and no matter how you slice it, whether it's carg 612 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,280 Speaker 4: Island or something else, it is now officially a boots 613 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 4: on the ground conversation. So somewhere someone has to do 614 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 4: the math. I do the math of what do you 615 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 4: do to get rid of the IRGC, because that's my 616 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 4: take on winning. They do the math of what can 617 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,959 Speaker 4: the American people tolerate? What is the appetite for such 618 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 4: a thing. So walk me through what it is you're 619 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 4: hearing and where you are on what is the appetite 620 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 4: for boots on the ground in a foreign conflict. 621 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 9: Well, I think they're trying to stretch out Iranian defenses. 622 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 9: I think carg Island is so obvious that probably whatever 623 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 9: defense assets they have right now, the Iranians are probably 624 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 9: focusing on defending card by opening these things up, and 625 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,240 Speaker 9: it's not like these are mysteries. I mean, the islands 626 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,879 Speaker 9: are there and everybody knows that they're there. But by 627 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 9: opening these up as potential targets, the Uranians now have 628 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 9: to stretch whatever depenses they have across multiple potential landing points. 629 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 9: This is sort of similar to what we did with 630 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 9: the Germans and World War Two. During D Day, we 631 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 9: kind of fainted at the the uh at Kla and 632 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:07,359 Speaker 9: ended up in Normandy and uh And and froze there. 633 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 9: Not just their frontline units, but also the reserve units 634 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:15,320 Speaker 9: were held in reserve for KLA because Hitler was convinced 635 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 9: that we were coming in in Kalay. The The issue here, 636 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,239 Speaker 9: I think is that the Auran Justice simply doesn't have 637 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 9: a whole lot of defensive assets. Israel says that they 638 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 9: killed most of the naval command which was controlling these 639 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 9: assets at a meeting overnight last night, including the UH 640 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,880 Speaker 9: the IRGC naval commander who was actually doing the straight 641 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 9: up hermu's operation. And so I think what you're seeing 642 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 9: is this. 643 00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 7: Sort of ramp up. 644 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 10: Now. 645 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 9: You talked about whether or not Trump was, you know, 646 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,239 Speaker 9: trying to get a deal or trying to are just 647 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 9: trying to stall. He's probably trying to do both, you know. 648 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 9: I think that it would be great if he could 649 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 9: just get the IRGC to to to quit, and so 650 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 9: he's been doing that. 651 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:02,400 Speaker 7: But most of this I think has been a stall. 652 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 9: And I would say that looking at it today, I 653 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 9: would expect them to try to go after the. 654 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 7: Smaller islands first. I don't know the smaller but the 655 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 7: ones that. 656 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,879 Speaker 9: Are closer to the actual strait because Trump has been 657 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,359 Speaker 9: doing sort of an escalation. Trump and Israel, we should 658 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 9: say both has been doing a sort of escalation as 659 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 9: this war has gone on. They have been taking out 660 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 9: military targets. The IRGC has been aiming at everybody in 661 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 9: the region and going after commercial assets. So we started 662 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:36,280 Speaker 9: going after commercial assets, say went after more commercial assets. 663 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:38,760 Speaker 7: And I think what he's doing is he's saying. 664 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 9: Every time you escalate, we're going to escalate more, and 665 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 9: we're going to escalate on your directly at your interests. 666 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 7: And I think that this is another thing. Maybe carg 667 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 7: Island is the ultimate. 668 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:55,440 Speaker 9: Target here, but he may hold that in reserve for 669 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,040 Speaker 9: yet another escalation after whatever it is, it's going to 670 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 9: come at the end of the ultimatum that expires like 671 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 9: it's more night. 672 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,399 Speaker 4: Excuse me talking to Ed Marssey off hotair dot com. 673 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 4: Grab yourself a quick drink.

Ed Marscy talking to Ed marsseyf 679 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 4: hotair dot com. There's this, there's definitely a piece a 680 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 4: large piece of the political left that wants Trump to fail. 681 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 4: They are engaged in a full on demoralization of American troops. 682 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 4: And I put Centator Chris Murphy of Connecticut front and 683 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 4: center of this group.

It is the why 697 00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 4: it is it? And I don't. I don't make this 698 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:29,680 Speaker 4: argument for them, but I do make this argument for 699 00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:31,720 Speaker 4: long on the wok right. It's as if they want 700 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:37,440 Speaker 4: us to lose. They want us to stop walk away, 701 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 4: keep the Iranians regime intact, and learn our lesson that 702 00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 4: we shouldn't be doing these things. I concern myself that 703 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 4: there are people who pay attention to this, specifically twenty 704 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 4: to twenty nine year old men, that younger male demo. 705 00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 4: I concern myself that that's this is what they're following. 706 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:01,759 Speaker 4: If they were following Nick Point to the extent that 707 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 4: they were, and they're following this, this is bad stuff 708 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 4: for the future of America. 709 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 9: It is, and I mean this is I had a 710 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:18,919 Speaker 9: conversation with Professor Gerald Steinberg earlier today about international law 711 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 9: in American law in regards to wartime, and basically international 712 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 9: law is a myth. 713 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 7: But this is the basis of what all this is. 714 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 9: Well Trump is this is Trump's the illegal war, and 715 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 9: we have to make sure that you don't do illegal wars. 716 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 9: There's plenty of room to discuss the wisdom of this choice, 717 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:40,759 Speaker 9: but there's no this isn't an illegal war. There's no 718 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 9: such thing really as international law. There is just simply 719 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 9: agreements between nations about how they want to operate, and 720 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 9: most of those don't have the force of law. Because 721 00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:54,840 Speaker 9: they aren't in treaties that have been at least in 722 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,440 Speaker 9: terms of the United States, they are entreaties that have 723 00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:59,360 Speaker 9: been ratified by the Senate. 724 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 7: They don't have a force of law inside the United 725 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:03,239 Speaker 7: States either. 726 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 9: They certainly don't have There's really no legal basis for 727 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 9: any of this. And if there were, if there was 728 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,840 Speaker 9: such a thing as international law, Iran would have been 729 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 9: in violation of it for the last several decades because 730 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,640 Speaker 9: it was a signatory to the Non Proliferation Treaty and 731 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:22,400 Speaker 9: pursued nuclear weapons anyway. So in one sense, this is 732 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,280 Speaker 9: law enforcement. This is a law enforcement action. It's about 733 00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:29,839 Speaker 9: twenty years overdue, and it reached a critical mass at 734 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 9: this point in time. Donald Trump saw Iran as a 735 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:37,280 Speaker 9: clear and present danger, which is the quasi illegal standard 736 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,399 Speaker 9: here for initiating military action. And he's not the first 737 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 9: president to put Iran in that position. Fact, every American 738 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 9: president has talked about the threat that Iran poses to 739 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 9: America and America's interests. Donald Trump is simply the first 740 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:52,799 Speaker 9: president who's actually done something about it. 741 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 4: The other people who seem to want to see a 742 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,520 Speaker 4: loss here is because they hate I argue that the 743 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 4: political left hates Trump more than they love their country. 744 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:09,560 Speaker 4: I don't know where I'm off base that in that argument, 745 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 4: Trump losing means their power. Trump losing means their opportunity, 746 00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 4: and we see it in a multitude of ways. But 747 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:22,359 Speaker 4: the left's response to this is that let's bring back 748 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,799 Speaker 4: No Kings, which was successful for them when they did 749 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 4: it the first time, and now their plan is to 750 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:32,240 Speaker 4: bring back No Kings. They're going to have the big 751 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 4: rally in Saint Paul, a place where you used to live, 752 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 4: and they're going to bring out Bruce Springsteen, Joan Bias, 753 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 4: and Jane Fonda. This is the Octinegerians or the Octagerians 754 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 4: fight back. This is uh, you know, everybody has to 755 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 4: bring not only their own lawn chair, but their own oxygen. 756 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:55,719 Speaker 6: This is. 757 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 4: These are the people who mocked us because Kid Rock 758 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 4: did a halftime show, and you're bringing out Joan Biaz 759 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 4: because Peter, Paul and Mary were already too busy playing 760 00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 4: the local home. 761 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 7: Already too dead. Actually only one of them is still around. 762 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:16,879 Speaker 4: I didn't know which one, So I just I don't 763 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 4: know which one of he is either to be saying 764 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 4: only one of. 765 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:20,920 Speaker 7: Them is still extant at the moment. 766 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:24,759 Speaker 9: And by the way, what are the ticket prices for 767 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 9: Bruce Springsteen's concerts, Because of late it's been in the 768 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 9: high three digit category amid the high three digit category 769 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 9: to get tickets to his you know, ordinary average guy 770 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:42,279 Speaker 9: concert populous. He's very much populist, except when it comes 771 00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:44,719 Speaker 9: to his ticket prices. And this has been actually an 772 00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 9: ongoing issue with Springsteen's concerts. Anyway, Only the rich, only 773 00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 9: people who are wealthy, can actually afford to attend these 774 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 9: things so they can feel, they can feel like they've 775 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 9: put on their donearees and you know, have a working 776 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,960 Speaker 9: man ex. I mean, the whole thing is you know, 777 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:06,279 Speaker 9: it's a it's a fougezy, it's it's this is it's 778 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 9: a it's a pretense. It's a conceit. I think conceit 779 00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:10,960 Speaker 9: is actually the best word for this. It's a conceit. 780 00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 9: And the idea that you're going to drag Jane Fonda 781 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:17,880 Speaker 9: last scene complaining that she didn't get a chance to 782 00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 9: do the Robert Redford, uh you know memorial at the 783 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:25,280 Speaker 9: Oscars because she did four films with them and Barbara 784 00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 9: Streisan only did one. These people are have become caricatures 785 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 9: of themselves. I guess I think they're gonna have Bernie 786 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:35,320 Speaker 9: Sanders there, right. 787 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:38,800 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean, if you're gonna have just the oscagenarians, 788 00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 4: you gotta have you gotta have Bernie Sanders. 789 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,040 Speaker 9: He's the second youngest of the people that are appearing 790 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:45,800 Speaker 9: in these in these events. 791 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 4: The event runs from two thirty to three forty five, 792 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 4: and jello will be served. 793 00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:54,520 Speaker 9: It's gonna be a country Kitchen Buffet, which is just 794 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 9: which is just on the four ninety four loop, by 795 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 9: the way, folks, and just get yourself over on the 796 00:49:58,880 --> 00:49:59,799 Speaker 9: four ninety four loop. 797 00:49:59,880 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 7: And and the Country Kitchen Buffet is the after show. 798 00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:05,200 Speaker 4: Don't forget to try the green beans now with fresh 799 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:05,800 Speaker 4: news sauce. 800 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:10,840 Speaker 7: Yeah no, this is very much old sauce. 801 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 9: This is the sixties.

Remember the music? You can be in 804 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 9: the retirement home. But you're hitting the point. 805 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 4: They're engaged in a retrospective of what they think made 806 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 4: them valuable instead of actually doing something valuable. One hundred 807 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 4: thousand people show up. Do we believe that this translates 808 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,520 Speaker 4: to power come November? 809 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:47,840 Speaker 9: I don't think so. I mean, it's hard to say. 810 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:50,760 Speaker 9: It won't be this. This will not be the catalyst 811 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 9: of this.

But that's it. I mean, this 815 00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:05,399 Speaker 7: is a. 816 00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 9: This is a demographic that's already set, crystallized, fossilized. I 817 00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 9: guess at this point it is not an expanding demographic. 818 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 9: This is This is a nostalgia tour for old revolutionaries 819 00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:21,719 Speaker 9: who are bitter in the fact that. 820 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 7: They've basically wasted their lives on it. 821 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:26,520 Speaker 4: I didn't have it on my bingo card that no 822 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 4: Kings would be brought to you by Prune. 823 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:33,040 Speaker 7: Juice, Ensure brought to insure. 824 00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 4: Yep, soon we'll see Phyllis still a talking about Poladen. 825 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 7: Well, that would also be a neat trip. 826 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:41,799 Speaker 2: Yes, she is also bad. 827 00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 4: I know, I knew that one.

I'm sorry secretary of Mark Wayne mull and 832 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:09,080 Speaker 4: for having been in business in his life. Tony Katz, 833 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 4: Tony Kats today, good. 834 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:10,799 Speaker 2: To be with you. 835 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:17,919 Speaker 4: Mark Wayne Mullen, who he told this joke it wasn't 836 00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:20,279 Speaker 4: so much of a joke. Before he was elected to 837 00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:22,360 Speaker 4: the Senate, Mark WAYN. Mullen was a low level MMA 838 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,720 Speaker 4: fighter and a plumber. That's right, we have a plumber 839 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 4: protecting us from terrorism. Now he worked for a super Mario. 840 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:34,680 Speaker 4: Why not Mark Wayne. It's not a good joke. And 841 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:39,360 Speaker 4: people took this and said, you know, the amount elites 842 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:46,759 Speaker 4: hate the working class is something else. And then people said, 843 00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:48,799 Speaker 4: why are we making fun of Mark Wayne Mullen, who, 844 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 4: as the story goes, Mark Wayne Mullen took over his 845 00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 4: family's business because his dad was ill and then turned 846 00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 4: it into something great. So I don't know his whole 847 00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 4: story there, But as someone noted, wait a second, Alexandria 848 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:12,879 Speaker 4: Acosio Cortez was a bartender. What in the world is 849 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 4: this that we make fun of Mark Wayne Mullen, but 850 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 4: we don't make fun of Acosio Cortez. And then I 851 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:24,840 Speaker 4: saw this post for a guy named Alan Parsa, AOC 852 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 4: graduated with honors from Boston University with double degrees in 853 00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:31,520 Speaker 4: economics and international relations. Mark Wayne was the only senator 854 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,920 Speaker 4: without even a bachelor's degree, and that's why it's okay 855 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 4: to make fun of him. The elitism still shines because 856 00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:42,520 Speaker 4: there are two things that this tells us. First, that 857 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 4: an economics degree from Boston University doesn't teach you anything 858 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:51,800 Speaker 4: about economics. Because if Acosio Cortez has an economics degree 859 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,680 Speaker 4: and she believes in the Green New Deal, she doesn't 860 00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:59,800 Speaker 4: know anything about the economy at all. And the degree 861 00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:03,120 Speaker 4: is nothing more than a shields from any bit of criticism. Well, 862 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 4: you don't have a degree in economics, and it teaches 863 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 4: us the second thing, the more important thing. The college 864 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:14,720 Speaker 4: degrees should not be seen as the indicator of talent, intellect, 865 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:21,040 Speaker 4: or decency. The college degree is nothing more than the 866 00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:29,359 Speaker 4: shield against criticism. The college degree comes from saying all 867 00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:31,279 Speaker 4: the things that the college wants you to say, not 868 00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,800 Speaker 4: because you actually have a mastery or an understanding of 869 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:37,479 Speaker 4: the subject at hand. You want my proof, David Hogg, 870 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:43,319 Speaker 4: I'm done here. College degree doesn't make you decent. You 871 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:49,520 Speaker 4: think sheepskin makes someone smart. We've seen what they put 872 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:52,840 Speaker 4: out the colleges put out kids who can't do an 873 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:59,040 Speaker 4: interview without their parents present, people who actually said gender 874 00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:06,320 Speaker 4: studies was a good major. But the elitists won't stop leading. 875 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:11,319 Speaker 4: They really do hate everybody else. Sad what they do. 876 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:17,400 Speaker 4: I'm Tony Katz. Three more things Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, guys, 877 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 4: an absolute pleasure to be with you. These are stories 878 00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:25,920 Speaker 4: that should be headlines, but don't always make it to 879 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,359 Speaker 4: the headlines. I think it's important to share them with you. 880 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:35,279 Speaker 4: The government shutdown still continues, where you have the Democratic 881 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:42,160 Speaker 4: Party overjoyed that they're creating long lines, overjoyed that they're 882 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:46,360 Speaker 4: making things difficult. They think that this is a winner. 883 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:52,600 Speaker 4: They think that this is a great, great position to 884 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:56,800 Speaker 4: be in, and they're saying so. They're not even shy 885 00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 4: about it. There's this Democrat on News Nation. 886 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,560 Speaker 11: You will keep this going until Republicans agree to that? 887 00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:07,080 Speaker 11: Will you keep this going to Stillmate? Going into your 888 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 11: republicans agree? You will keep this going until Republicans agree 889 00:56:11,040 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 11: to that? Will you keep this going to Stillmate? Going 890 00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 11: into Republicans agree? 891 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:22,280 Speaker 4: Why not? Because it's ridiculous, because you're impacting lives. Listen. 892 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 4: I am not a fan of the TSA. I'm not 893 00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:29,360 Speaker 4: shy about this, but they're not getting paid and it's wrong. 894 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,520 Speaker 4: They're not getting paid because you won't fund DHS. Well, 895 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:37,600 Speaker 4: we're willing to fund TSA separately. Kid, you don't get 896 00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 4: to play like that. And so we're clear your strategy failed. 897 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:45,360 Speaker 4: Now I thought your strategy was going to work because 898 00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:48,799 Speaker 4: I thought Republicans took too long to fighting it. They 899 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 4: took too long to build out what is clear, which 900 00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 4: is you, the Democratic Party, are keep people from getting paid. 901 00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:04,440 Speaker 4: You're creating the long lines, you're creating the issues, you're 902 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:07,799 Speaker 4: creating the discontentment at airports where things are already bad. 903 00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:12,360 Speaker 4: You Democrats are doing this. And then they started the 904 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 4: Republicans didn't move fast enough on tying them to it, 905 00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:21,880 Speaker 4: hanging around their necks because Republicans are ridiculous. So then 906 00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 4: I stated that Democrats coming in with the strategy of 907 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 4: well we'll find tsay, yeah, that's it's going to have 908 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,440 Speaker 4: movement and then you'll have some kind of deal. Republicans 909 00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 4: missed their moment. And what has happened. Democrats don't have it. 910 00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 4: They don't they don't have They have not been able 911 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:51,800 Speaker 4: to win this fight. I know this because we're still 912 00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 4: in it. Republicans all of a sudden grew a spine. 913 00:57:55,720 --> 00:58:01,880 Speaker 4: Oh honey, Democrats don't have the arguments with the people. 914 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:09,720 Speaker 4: They're not winning this And yet more and more Democrats. 915 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 12: I think not paying TSA agents is not advancing our 916 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 12: ability to undermine support for Donald Trump and the Republican Party. 917 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 12: And that's just a logical thing, because it's not nineteen 918 00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,400 Speaker 12: thirty two or what the hell it is. That's a 919 00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 12: very logical problem. 920 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:32,919 Speaker 4: So is this Democrat Adam Smith actually saying, wait a second, 921 00:58:34,040 --> 00:58:37,400 Speaker 4: if we don't pay these people, it's not like it helps. 922 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:44,560 Speaker 4: But listen to what he said again. You see we 923 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:47,640 Speaker 4: take it as oh, they're admitting that not paying them 924 00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:54,000 Speaker 4: doesn't help them. But listen to what it is he 925 00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:58,560 Speaker 4: thinks will help him and help Democrats. Oh, I think 926 00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 4: you got to hear this more than us. 927 00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 12: I think not paying TSA agents is not advancing our 928 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:09,960 Speaker 12: ability to undermine support for Donald Trump and the Republican Party. 929 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:14,720 Speaker 4: I think not paying TSA agents is not advancing, not 930 00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 4: advancing what new. 931 00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:21,160 Speaker 12: Ability to undermine support for Donald Trump and the Republican Party. 932 00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:27,080 Speaker 4: Oh, so you want to pay TSA agents because you 933 00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:29,400 Speaker 4: think you're losing a battle, and the real battle is 934 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 4: undermining support for Trump and the Republican Party. It's not 935 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,840 Speaker 4: we called it again. This is starting to becoming way 936 00:59:40,880 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 4: too easy. Guys, did we or did we not? Say? Ice, authoritarian, Epstein? 937 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 4: These are the three subjects that the Democrats are running 938 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 4: on for the midterms. It has nothing to do with policy, 939 00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:55,400 Speaker 4: It has nothing to do with philosophy. It all has 940 00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 4: to do with hate Trump. How do you got Trump? 941 00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,080 Speaker 4: How do you attack Trump? How do you tie Trump? 942 00:59:59,160 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 4: How do you do this? 943 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 2: Rump that? 944 01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 4: Trump? It's all Trump, all the time, trumpety Trump, Trump Trump. 945 01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 4: We said that. I did an entire event a couple 946 01:00:08,200 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 4: of weeks back. I had a right there on the 947 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:16,400 Speaker 4: big screen for people, Ice, authoritarian, and Epstein. These are 948 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:19,240 Speaker 4: the three pillars that the Democrats are going to be 949 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 4: running on. And here's Congressman Adam Smith, if you hear 950 01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:25,920 Speaker 4: it again, making the. 951 01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:29,960 Speaker 12: Argument, I think not paying tsa agents is not advancing 952 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:32,920 Speaker 12: our ability to undermine support for Donald Trump and the 953 01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:36,640 Speaker 12: Republican Party. And that's just a logical thing, because it's 954 01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 12: not nineteen thirty two or what the. 955 01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 13: Hell it is. 956 01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:45,000 Speaker 12: That's a very logical problem. 957 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:48,920 Speaker 4: Why push a policy when you can attack a guy. 958 01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 4: The Olenski rules for radicals are well in effect. Kids 959 01:00:57,320 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 4: pick the target, personalize it, freeze it, and polarize it. 960 01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:05,400 Speaker 4: That's what's happening. And as for those people on the 961 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 4: long lines, as for those people dealing with the TSA problems, 962 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,880 Speaker 4: they're speaking to reporters and they're being clear. I think 963 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:17,400 Speaker 4: this is clean. They're a producer landing. But finger on 964 01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:18,800 Speaker 4: the dumb button justin case. 965 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:21,960 Speaker 10: I'd like to see our congressmen stand in this line 966 01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:25,960 Speaker 10: and see if they enjoyed like the normal everyday voters do. 967 01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:30,280 Speaker 10: So remember this when you vote in November about who 968 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:30,840 Speaker 10: caused this? 969 01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 4: That would be the Democratic Party. That would be the 970 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 4: Democratic Party. Now he is right about one thing, and 971 01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:45,480 Speaker 4: there is a very very large miss going on, because 972 01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:48,439 Speaker 4: what we said was that the Republicans should be out 973 01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:50,840 Speaker 4: there handing out bottles of water, handing out food and 974 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:54,120 Speaker 4: apologizing for what Democrats are doing to them, doing to 975 01:01:54,160 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 4: the people. There was a story that Nancy I don't 976 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:04,640 Speaker 4: know if this is true. Nancy mass I think has 977 01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 4: made some very serious midsteps missteps over the last week. 978 01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:22,400 Speaker 4: Nancy Mace, it's reported, was heading to an airport where 979 01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:27,360 Speaker 4: of course people are waiting on lines for hours, and 980 01:02:27,400 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 4: she was escorted to the front of the line. There 981 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:40,000 Speaker 4: you are, Congresswoman. And there was also a video of 982 01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:43,200 Speaker 4: Congresswoman w. Wasserman Schultz doing the same thing front of 983 01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:48,520 Speaker 4: the line. She states that the video is a misrepresentation. 984 01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:52,440 Speaker 4: Last week, she flew through New York and waited in 985 01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 4: the standard TSA line like everybody else. She believes all 986 01:02:55,800 --> 01:03:03,760 Speaker 4: members of Congress should do the same. And she also 987 01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 4: said that this is not a DHS escort. She has 988 01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:09,080 Speaker 4: a Capitol Police escort because she gets thirteen hundred death 989 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:11,880 Speaker 4: threats a year, so she needs to travel with security 990 01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 4: for her protection. I don't actually deny that that could 991 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 4: be happening to her, so she wants to be clear 992 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:20,640 Speaker 4: that she is not trying to cut the line. I 993 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:25,080 Speaker 4: think it is really important for every member of Congress 994 01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:29,400 Speaker 4: to stand in those lines, just like I thought it 995 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:31,520 Speaker 4: was important to reach out and be at your airport 996 01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 4: in your state, in your city, in your municipality, and 997 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:40,520 Speaker 4: be helping people and understanding what they're going through. The 998 01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:44,040 Speaker 4: first person to cut the line, which will be Bernie Sanders, 999 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:49,160 Speaker 4: by the way, that's the person who gets hilified. The 1000 01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:54,320 Speaker 4: people struggle. The people suffer because if your incapabilities and 1001 01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:58,520 Speaker 4: you get whisked right through. Goes back to that elitism 1002 01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 4: conversation regarding Jimmy Kimmel, and it is absolute elitism over 1003 01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:17,600 Speaker 4: there at Loyola where you have the murder of Sheridan Gordon. 1004 01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:23,360 Speaker 4: Sorry Gorman, I apologize, g R M A N. She 1005 01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:26,160 Speaker 4: was murdered by an illegal immigrant. And by the way, 1006 01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 4: you have not read the name wrong. The name of 1007 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:33,280 Speaker 4: the illegal immigrant is Jose Medina. Medina. That's the that's 1008 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 4: the actual name. The Loyola School paper right Loyal University Chicago, 1009 01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:49,680 Speaker 4: they wrote an article about this. The original headline read 1010 01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:52,840 Speaker 4: a legal immigrant a charge and murder of Sheridan Gorman, 1011 01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:57,640 Speaker 4: DHS involved. They changed it to immigrant man charged and 1012 01:04:57,760 --> 01:05:01,360 Speaker 4: murder of Sheridan Gorman, DHS and involved. Why did they 1013 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:06,480 Speaker 4: change the headline. They changed the headline because, according to 1014 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:10,600 Speaker 4: the editor in a note that was put on the paper, 1015 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:14,040 Speaker 4: the headline didn't reflect the most important elements in the story, 1016 01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:17,439 Speaker 4: and it was taken down minutes later to prevent any 1017 01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:22,040 Speaker 4: further harm to affected communities and community members. And you're like, 1018 01:05:22,080 --> 01:05:26,320 Speaker 4: what does that mean. Additionally, they write in the body 1019 01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:28,760 Speaker 4: of the original post, we described the man who was 1020 01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:33,320 Speaker 4: charged as an illegal immigrant, quote unquote, using language provided 1021 01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:36,200 Speaker 4: by the Department of Homeland Security. That language does not 1022 01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 4: align with the associated press style, nor does it align 1023 01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:43,880 Speaker 4: with the values of this newspaper. No humans existence is illegal, 1024 01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:49,840 Speaker 4: and we quickly changed our wording to reflect that. The 1025 01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:57,280 Speaker 4: college newspaper changed the headline discussing the murderer of a 1026 01:05:57,680 --> 01:06:02,520 Speaker 4: was she nineteen nineteen year old woman who did nothing wrong. 1027 01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:06,080 Speaker 4: They changed the headline because it could have been offensive 1028 01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:08,760 Speaker 4: to call him an illegal immigrant when he was in 1029 01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:19,840 Speaker 4: the country illegally. There's broken, and then there's broken, and 1030 01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:27,240 Speaker 4: then there's that. And it is up to us to 1031 01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:30,280 Speaker 4: ask ourselves where are we sending our kids? And it's 1032 01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:32,720 Speaker 4: up to university students to say, where in the world 1033 01:06:32,720 --> 01:06:36,400 Speaker 4: do I want to go? Why in the world would 1034 01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:39,480 Speaker 4: you want to go to a school that is so 1035 01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:44,160 Speaker 4: unbelievably cowardly and so protective of murderers that they would 1036 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:47,480 Speaker 4: rewrite a headline because illegal immigrants is the most insulting 1037 01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:53,400 Speaker 4: thing there. It's like the aldermen there in Chicago. Oh, 1038 01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:58,240 Speaker 4: wrong place, wrong time. She probably startled him. Rod Blgoevitch, 1039 01:06:58,320 --> 01:07:01,720 Speaker 4: the former governor thinks that this this was a gang initiation. 1040 01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 4: I don't know if he's right or he's wrong about that. 1041 01:07:07,280 --> 01:07:09,280 Speaker 4: He's done more hard time than me, so maybe he 1042 01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:15,520 Speaker 4: knows things. But it is This is a great example 1043 01:07:15,520 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 4: of how broken, how disastrous the Left is, and how 1044 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:29,680 Speaker 4: much they have wrecked younger people. I mean, these people 1045 01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:35,720 Speaker 4: are adults, they are in college. But you apologize to 1046 01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:40,400 Speaker 4: the murderer for saying illegal immigrants. Your classmate was killed 1047 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:43,400 Speaker 4: and it could have been you, and tomorrow it might 1048 01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:52,800 Speaker 4: be you. We're talking about murder, and you think the 1049 01:07:52,840 --> 01:07:55,720 Speaker 4: issue is illegal immigrant. He is an illegal immigrant. The 1050 01:07:55,760 --> 01:08:00,160 Speaker 4: word is illegal immigrant. Yes, people can be ill illegally here, 1051 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:03,160 Speaker 4: and the idea that no human being is illegal correct, 1052 01:08:03,280 --> 01:08:09,120 Speaker 4: but they might do illegal things. This is a great 1053 01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 4: example of how the left lies about language, and they 1054 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:16,400 Speaker 4: do this to self soothe, because this way they're protected 1055 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:25,519 Speaker 4: from hard conversations week shallow, ugly, hateful. I would use 1056 01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 4: more words, but I'm not sure these Loyola students are 1057 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:33,200 Speaker 4: really required to study any vocabulary at all. I'm Tony Katz. 1058 01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:36,480 Speaker 4: This is Tony Katz. Today there was a really interesting thread. 1059 01:08:37,200 --> 01:08:42,760 Speaker 4: I should post this at Tony Katz dot com It 1060 01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:48,840 Speaker 4: was a thread on the Twitter x written by Mikail Kodokowski. Me. 1061 01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:53,280 Speaker 4: I'm Tony Katz. Tony Katz today, ex political prisoner in Russia, 1062 01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:58,160 Speaker 4: leader of the Russian opposition. I don't know him. One 1063 01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:00,840 Speaker 4: hundred and seventy seven thousand followers on the Twitter X. 1064 01:09:02,479 --> 01:09:05,919 Speaker 4: And he writes, and I also read some secondary accounts 1065 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:11,120 Speaker 4: where they're able to back this up, and there is 1066 01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:17,160 Speaker 4: this is the accounting of how the Russians have handled 1067 01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 4: the war against Ukraine. You're like, Tony, I don't care 1068 01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:24,240 Speaker 4: about the war against Ukraine. I'm not talking about funding here. 1069 01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:28,880 Speaker 4: I'm talking about are we all fully aware of what 1070 01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:32,800 Speaker 4: the Russians have lost? The human costs? Now, we did 1071 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:35,400 Speaker 4: discuss when we were discussing this, you know on the 1072 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:38,840 Speaker 4: regular that the Russians just throw bodies at this thing. 1073 01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:40,719 Speaker 4: They don't care what bodies they throw. They're just gonna 1074 01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:47,120 Speaker 4: throw bodies at the thing. But according to Kordokowski, the 1075 01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:51,280 Speaker 4: internal documents say that more than twenty eight thousand soldiers 1076 01:09:51,320 --> 01:09:55,320 Speaker 4: were assigned to a single Russian division in twenty twenty four. 1077 01:09:56,560 --> 01:10:00,559 Speaker 4: For those of you who know things military, the argument 1078 01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:03,639 Speaker 4: made here is that a wartime strengthenonics seen fourteen thousand, 1079 01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:09,080 Speaker 4: which would mean that an entire division's worth the personnel 1080 01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:12,559 Speaker 4: was lost in one year, which would being killed, wounded, 1081 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:17,200 Speaker 4: beyond returned, captured, or missing. And it starts going through 1082 01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:21,040 Speaker 4: the numbers. This thread starts going through the numbers, and 1083 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:24,840 Speaker 4: you realize that how Putin is running things in this 1084 01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:28,400 Speaker 4: war against Ukraine, where he is just losing human beings 1085 01:10:28,479 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 4: left and right. This is how Progorsian pregosion was. The 1086 01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:40,120 Speaker 4: guy who run the Wagner group and basically mercenaries. They 1087 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,479 Speaker 4: would have this core group of guys, then they would 1088 01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:45,200 Speaker 4: get all these extra bodies and let the bodies be expendable. 1089 01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:49,880 Speaker 4: But those bodies were guys who were convicts. They didn't 1090 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:51,600 Speaker 4: really know. They're like, stay in jail, or come do 1091 01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:56,839 Speaker 4: this and take your chances. Putin is just grabbing people 1092 01:10:56,880 --> 01:10:59,559 Speaker 4: off the streets a mosca or whatever. They don't know anything. 1093 01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:02,680 Speaker 4: They're not trained. There is no training happening. They don't 1094 01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:05,600 Speaker 4: even understand where they're at. They're just here, fire the 1095 01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:13,000 Speaker 4: gun that way. They have made no advancements what soever. 1096 01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:24,280 Speaker 4: They've advanced over two years fifty kilometers. You may travel 1097 01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:29,839 Speaker 4: more than that for your community. They are losing bodies 1098 01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:32,720 Speaker 4: and it is ugly. This is Tony Kats. 1099 01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:44,040 Speaker 1: Today Live from Vall Hartland and the Crossroads of America. 1100 01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:47,439 Speaker 4: It's Tony Katz Today. Oh, you gotta love a good 1101 01:11:47,479 --> 01:11:51,320 Speaker 4: cabinet meeting. We've got war with Iran, You've got Democrats 1102 01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:54,839 Speaker 4: not funding the Department of Homeland Security, the everyday stuff, 1103 01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:58,599 Speaker 4: and a cabinet meeting on top of it. This is 1104 01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:02,679 Speaker 4: going to be a joy and a treat or maybe 1105 01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:05,679 Speaker 4: we'll learn something. Tony Katz, Tony Kats Today, guys, good 1106 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,160 Speaker 4: to be with you. Thanks for being here. I greatly 1107 01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:12,200 Speaker 4: appreciate it. I don't know what kind of deal we 1108 01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:14,439 Speaker 4: think we have with the Iranians. I don't know why 1109 01:12:14,479 --> 01:12:18,240 Speaker 4: anybody would think we have a deal with the Iranians. Well, 1110 01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:21,080 Speaker 4: they rejected the fifteen point plan, and then it was 1111 01:12:21,120 --> 01:12:24,080 Speaker 4: Caroline Levitt saying what fifteen point plan? And then it 1112 01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:26,840 Speaker 4: was oh, there might be a fifteen point plan. I 1113 01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:30,840 Speaker 4: don't know. And part of the issue is is that 1114 01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:34,080 Speaker 4: you've got everybody in their influencer you know, with their 1115 01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:36,920 Speaker 4: influencer hats and the influencer classic and I know what's happening, 1116 01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:40,280 Speaker 4: and here's what's going on. Guys, everything right now is 1117 01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:43,680 Speaker 4: a massive amount of misdirection. I'm still trying to get 1118 01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:47,280 Speaker 4: an answer to a basic question, what is the desire 1119 01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:52,879 Speaker 4: here a deal or the end of the regime, because 1120 01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:56,080 Speaker 4: I'm interested in the end of the regime, so therefore 1121 01:12:56,160 --> 01:13:01,919 Speaker 4: any deal could actually stick. No of terrorism, no creation 1122 01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:07,360 Speaker 4: of nuclear weapons. The Iranians become Persians again, and everybody decides, hey, 1123 01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:10,639 Speaker 4: let's go to a ran On vacation, which there could 1124 01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:14,400 Speaker 4: definitely be some tourism going on. Anything without the Islamic 1125 01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:18,200 Speaker 4: Revolutionary guardcore, anything where it's not an Islamic regime. That's 1126 01:13:18,200 --> 01:13:20,880 Speaker 4: what's solid, that's what's good. This is what I favor. 1127 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,760 Speaker 4: The end of terrorism is what I favor, But I 1128 01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:28,440 Speaker 4: don't know if that's what Trump favors. Now, for clarity, 1129 01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:31,679 Speaker 4: I'm not saying that President Trump's okay with terrorism. It's 1130 01:13:31,680 --> 01:13:36,600 Speaker 4: not my argument. His goal may very well be no 1131 01:13:36,680 --> 01:13:41,120 Speaker 4: more nuclear weapons. We're done here, no nuclear capability whatsoever. 1132 01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:45,240 Speaker 4: We're done, We're finished with complete goodbye. Next, get the 1133 01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:49,000 Speaker 4: straight back open. The oil prices come down. Everybody's happy. 1134 01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:51,519 Speaker 4: Look at me, Look what I did, exactly what I 1135 01:13:51,520 --> 01:13:53,880 Speaker 4: said I was gonna do. No forever wars no matter 1136 01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:57,960 Speaker 4: what people like Marjorie Taylor Green, that magnificent loser, go 1137 01:13:58,120 --> 01:14:01,599 Speaker 4: about claiming all of the the Tucker puppets were totally 1138 01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 4: wrong and absolute fools done. Maybe that's his goal. The 1139 01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:10,719 Speaker 4: first rule of trump Ism, as Trump wins. The second 1140 01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:12,639 Speaker 4: rule of trump Ism is that a deal could always 1141 01:14:12,680 --> 01:14:14,679 Speaker 4: be made as long as it adheres to the first 1142 01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:17,679 Speaker 4: rule of trump Ism. I knew what I was voting 1143 01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:22,320 Speaker 4: for when I voted for him three times. I'm aware 1144 01:14:23,439 --> 01:14:26,479 Speaker 4: no one I should only hope by now, guys, none 1145 01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:27,920 Speaker 4: of us are playing for ten. None of us are 1146 01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:33,479 Speaker 4: playing make believe we know what we know what it 1147 01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:37,320 Speaker 4: is that we voted for. We know his own personal issues. 1148 01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:40,679 Speaker 4: We don't know his own personal limitations. But we also 1149 01:14:40,760 --> 01:14:43,439 Speaker 4: know the successes that we can get. And I weigh 1150 01:14:43,479 --> 01:14:46,240 Speaker 4: the successes against the insanity, and I take the successes, 1151 01:14:46,880 --> 01:14:49,240 Speaker 4: and I don't let the insanity drive me crazy. I 1152 01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:52,559 Speaker 4: push back on them. But it's still better than anything 1153 01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:58,760 Speaker 4: the progressives are giving us. By multitudes, it's better than 1154 01:14:58,760 --> 01:15:02,880 Speaker 4: anything the progressives are go giving us. That you know, 1155 01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:09,600 Speaker 4: we're into the real politique. Here was it real politique? 1156 01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 4: This is the way things are, not necessarily what we want, 1157 01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:17,000 Speaker 4: but the way they are, and how do we work 1158 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:19,160 Speaker 4: within that, and how do we strive to make it 1159 01:15:19,240 --> 01:15:24,280 Speaker 4: just a little bit better? Actually, everything about this really 1160 01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:27,439 Speaker 4: brings me back to my I won't say it's my 1161 01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:30,560 Speaker 4: original thesis, but for me, in terms of guiding principles, 1162 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:36,160 Speaker 4: the idea of incrementalism, there are indeed places and moments 1163 01:15:36,200 --> 01:15:38,600 Speaker 4: where I am an all or nothing guy, and I 1164 01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:40,759 Speaker 4: think that if we're all honest about our personal lives 1165 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,760 Speaker 4: or professional lives, we have that moment where we are 1166 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:49,599 Speaker 4: all or nothing. In the main, I'll take a little 1167 01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:52,000 Speaker 4: bit here and a little bit there, and just try 1168 01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:53,600 Speaker 4: and grow it a little bit the next day, and 1169 01:15:53,680 --> 01:15:56,760 Speaker 4: a little bit more the next day, bit by bit, 1170 01:15:57,160 --> 01:16:01,320 Speaker 4: and peace by peace, heading to where we want to be, 1171 01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:07,080 Speaker 4: heading in that direction, because I think that is you know, 1172 01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:10,120 Speaker 4: some people may call that the pragmatic course. I think 1173 01:16:10,160 --> 01:16:15,000 Speaker 4: that's actually conservatism. I think that's the rational play. Not Hey, 1174 01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:16,680 Speaker 4: this is the world I dream of. This is the 1175 01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:18,559 Speaker 4: world as it is, And how do we get it 1176 01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:20,240 Speaker 4: a little bit better? And how do we get it 1177 01:16:20,280 --> 01:16:20,920 Speaker 4: a little bit better? 1178 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:21,040 Speaker 14: Do? 1179 01:16:21,120 --> 01:16:23,200 Speaker 4: I think I could take thirty nine trillion dollars worth 1180 01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:26,559 Speaker 4: of debt and reduce it to zero overnight. No, but 1181 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:29,720 Speaker 4: can we take thirty nine and make it thirty? Can 1182 01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:31,600 Speaker 4: we take thirty nine and make it thirty? Yes? I 1183 01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:34,400 Speaker 4: know I'm talking about trillions. Can I make it thirty five? 1184 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:37,080 Speaker 4: At least? Can we drop it by four trillion dollars? 1185 01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 4: Can we just start? That's That's really where I'm at. 1186 01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:49,120 Speaker 4: Here are the guiding principles, right, that's the conservatism. You 1187 01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:52,120 Speaker 4: can say that I'm a small l liberal, like a 1188 01:16:52,120 --> 01:16:56,799 Speaker 4: classical liberal. I could go with that as well. And now, 1189 01:16:56,960 --> 01:17:00,160 Speaker 4: how do I get people to come with me on 1190 01:17:00,200 --> 01:17:03,200 Speaker 4: this journey, this adventure of this philosophy and get a 1191 01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:06,960 Speaker 4: little bit better each time? With Trump, I get a 1192 01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:09,320 Speaker 4: little bit better than anything the political left can give me. 1193 01:17:09,720 --> 01:17:15,080 Speaker 4: Anything the political left can give me. That doesn't mean 1194 01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:18,000 Speaker 4: I agree with everything. It doesn't mean you agree with everything. 1195 01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:22,559 Speaker 4: And sure as hell means that when I think he's wrong, 1196 01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:26,080 Speaker 4: I say, so, what does it matter? He's got to 1197 01:17:26,120 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 4: call me a name. Somebody else is gonna be mad 1198 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:32,760 Speaker 4: at me. So what that is inconsequential to what it 1199 01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:35,559 Speaker 4: is We're trying to do. What it is we're trying 1200 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:39,800 Speaker 4: to get done. So when it comes to Iran, I 1201 01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:42,120 Speaker 4: want to get rid of the regime completely. I want 1202 01:17:42,120 --> 01:17:45,840 Speaker 4: the IRGC broken into never to reconstant and recover. I 1203 01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:49,679 Speaker 4: want a free Iran, which means no support of terrorism 1204 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:53,040 Speaker 4: and no nuclear weapons. Better for me, better for you, 1205 01:17:53,160 --> 01:17:55,719 Speaker 4: And we get to stop talking about the Middle East, 1206 01:17:55,960 --> 01:17:59,639 Speaker 4: which would be awesome. So I'd be overjoyed. We got 1207 01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:01,800 Speaker 4: a lot of places to talk about, starting with the 1208 01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:08,679 Speaker 4: United States. Let's do that. Trump different Trump sees it differently, 1209 01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:14,400 Speaker 4: and maybe his philosophy is what we are what we 1210 01:18:14,479 --> 01:18:18,800 Speaker 4: can do is just get rid of the nuclear weapons program. 1211 01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:21,040 Speaker 4: They're not gonna be able to reconstitute that. That's what 1212 01:18:21,040 --> 01:18:23,400 Speaker 4: we said we were going in for. That's what we 1213 01:18:23,479 --> 01:18:28,240 Speaker 4: got done. That's it. Goodbye. And when you see oil 1214 01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:32,479 Speaker 4: prices as you see them where the West Texas crewed, 1215 01:18:33,520 --> 01:18:35,479 Speaker 4: it's back over ninety dollars a barrel, and the Brent 1216 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,080 Speaker 4: crude is well over one d one hundred and five 1217 01:18:38,200 --> 01:18:41,479 Speaker 4: hundred and six. And it could end differently, like like 1218 01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:43,240 Speaker 4: when you see it right now as you're hearing this, 1219 01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:47,000 Speaker 4: it could be in a much different place. Trump once 1220 01:18:47,080 --> 01:18:48,680 Speaker 4: up to at least back down in the eighties and 1221 01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:51,639 Speaker 4: back into the seventies, and gas that's at an average 1222 01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:54,240 Speaker 4: four dollars and seven cent. Well, no, it's three ninety 1223 01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:58,920 Speaker 4: eight across the country on average, so four dollars gas 1224 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:01,719 Speaker 4: back down to three dollars. Well, it's a lot easier 1225 01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:05,840 Speaker 4: to win reelection, I should say, win the midterms that way, 1226 01:19:06,840 --> 01:19:12,439 Speaker 4: a lot lots easier. And maybe that's enough for him. 1227 01:19:13,280 --> 01:19:15,360 Speaker 4: But the president held the cabinet meeting. I'm going to 1228 01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:17,439 Speaker 4: share with you as much of the cabinet meeting as 1229 01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:19,559 Speaker 4: I can. I don't know what's going to get said. 1230 01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:23,040 Speaker 4: I'm gonna do this with you. But you've got so 1231 01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:26,400 Speaker 4: many people and in so many ways engaged. How does 1232 01:19:26,439 --> 01:19:30,160 Speaker 4: Marco Rubio see it? What's going on with Secretary of 1233 01:19:30,240 --> 01:19:32,320 Speaker 4: Kennedy Health and Human Services? What are we going to 1234 01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:34,000 Speaker 4: hear from the Department of War? What are we going 1235 01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:36,560 Speaker 4: to hear from from the DOJ And Pam Bondi And 1236 01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:39,879 Speaker 4: by the way, Pam Bondi. Still there is Lori Chavez DeRemer, 1237 01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 4: who is accused of getting on with a staffer, a 1238 01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:46,160 Speaker 4: Secretary of Labor. She's showing up. What is Chris write 1239 01:19:46,200 --> 01:19:48,080 Speaker 4: the Secretary of Energy? You have to say, do they 1240 01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:51,200 Speaker 4: have anything interesting to say? Or is it everything's going great? 1241 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,680 Speaker 4: Mister President you're doing a great job, mister President. Well done, 1242 01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:59,120 Speaker 4: mister President. All that crap that I hate, the sickophan 1243 01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:03,480 Speaker 4: stuff is the worst part of this administration. It's the worst. 1244 01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:08,879 Speaker 4: Don't blow smoke. Tell us what's going on, give the update, 1245 01:20:09,160 --> 01:20:14,799 Speaker 4: give the advice, move on. Less blowing smoke, more blowing 1246 01:20:14,880 --> 01:20:17,120 Speaker 4: up the regime until they're gone. I mean, we're there. 1247 01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:20,559 Speaker 4: You decided to go in. I just believe in ending 1248 01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:25,400 Speaker 4: the job, finishing the job, ending the regime. I think 1249 01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:29,439 Speaker 4: it's better for everybody. And I kind of am stunned 1250 01:20:29,479 --> 01:20:32,800 Speaker 4: by the people who don't see that. I wonder what 1251 01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:35,720 Speaker 4: they think is better or is it just in that 1252 01:20:35,840 --> 01:20:40,240 Speaker 4: influencer class, just complaining is better.

I'm not 1259 01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:10,120 Speaker 4: kidding about that.

I saw today 1293 01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:06,799 Speaker 14: on one of the shows where they were interviewing people 1294 01:23:06,840 --> 01:23:08,880 Speaker 14: at the airport, and they're all angry at the Democrats. 1295 01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:11,479 Speaker 14: They're saying they're actually angry at Schumer. I didn't think 1296 01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:15,360 Speaker 14: anyone knew his name. One woman said that Schumor is disgraceful. 1297 01:23:15,400 --> 01:23:18,280 Speaker 14: He's a disgrace to our country. But they're angry at 1298 01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:21,800 Speaker 14: the Democrats. They know what's happening, but they're punishing the 1299 01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:25,920 Speaker 14: American people, including travelers at airports. Hall and the quest 1300 01:23:25,960 --> 01:23:29,599 Speaker 14: to return to open borders and give amnesty to illegal 1301 01:23:29,680 --> 01:23:32,880 Speaker 14: alien criminals. They want to give amnesty to some of 1302 01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:35,599 Speaker 14: the criminals. 1303 01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:37,599 Speaker 2: That came into our country, just about all of them. Actually, 1304 01:23:37,640 --> 01:23:39,880 Speaker 2: if you look at it, they. 1305 01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:43,439 Speaker 14: Love sanctuary cities, which is a sanctuary for criminals. They 1306 01:23:43,479 --> 01:23:45,200 Speaker 14: want to make sure they're taken care of. That's what 1307 01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:47,320 Speaker 14: we're fighting about. That's really what they're fight They don't 1308 01:23:47,360 --> 01:23:50,040 Speaker 14: talk about that, but that's what they're fighting about. They 1309 01:23:50,040 --> 01:23:53,519 Speaker 14: want to protect the criminals. In many case, eleven eight 1310 01:23:53,640 --> 01:23:56,280 Speaker 14: hundred and eighty eight murders, many of them I will say, 1311 01:23:56,280 --> 01:23:56,919 Speaker 14: are gone. 1312 01:23:56,720 --> 01:24:00,439 Speaker 2: Now because of us. We got them out, but you 1313 01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:01,599 Speaker 2: still have some left. 1314 01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:04,040 Speaker 14: Should it never happened, should have never been allowed to 1315 01:24:04,080 --> 01:24:05,080 Speaker 14: come into our country. 1316 01:24:05,920 --> 01:24:07,400 Speaker 2: But we're not going to let it happen. We're not 1317 01:24:07,439 --> 01:24:10,320 Speaker 2: going to let the Democrats get away with this stuff. 1318 01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:11,479 Speaker 2: And people are wise to them. 1319 01:24:11,479 --> 01:24:15,800 Speaker 14: So they need to end the shutdown immediately or we'll 1320 01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:18,519 Speaker 14: have to take some very drastic measures. 1321 01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:22,360 Speaker 4: I have to assume that's what Senator Kennedy wants. John 1322 01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:26,200 Speaker 4: Kennedy out of Louisiana always a catchphrase to make you smile. 1323 01:24:26,960 --> 01:24:29,360 Speaker 4: His argument is, what are we doing with these people? 1324 01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:33,120 Speaker 4: These people are crazy, forget them. Let's go do this 1325 01:24:33,160 --> 01:24:38,040 Speaker 4: whole thing via reconciliation, so real quick. The process in 1326 01:24:38,080 --> 01:24:40,200 Speaker 4: the Senate is you have to open debate and you 1327 01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:42,280 Speaker 4: have to close debate before you get to a vote. 1328 01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:46,240 Speaker 4: The vote can be fifty one right, simple majority, But 1329 01:24:46,360 --> 01:24:50,160 Speaker 4: to open debate and to close debate, you need sixty votes. 1330 01:24:50,320 --> 01:24:58,480 Speaker 4: Cloture clo t ure. That's what it is, parliamentary procedure 1331 01:24:58,600 --> 01:25:04,880 Speaker 4: aimed at bring a debate to an end. Since you 1332 01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:09,120 Speaker 4: can't get over that sixty vote threshold because Democrats won't 1333 01:25:09,120 --> 01:25:14,280 Speaker 4: come on board to be rational people, you can utilize reconciliation. 1334 01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:19,400 Speaker 4: Reconciliation refers to budget items. It could only be utilized 1335 01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:24,880 Speaker 4: when talking about dollars. When it is reconciliation, the sixty 1336 01:25:24,960 --> 01:25:28,799 Speaker 4: vote threshold disappears and you only need the simple majority 1337 01:25:28,800 --> 01:25:31,600 Speaker 4: fifty plus one. Now if Mark Waynemullen can get confirmed 1338 01:25:31,840 --> 01:25:36,920 Speaker 4: with fifty four votes two Democrats coming across, by the way, 1339 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:40,800 Speaker 4: well then it is fair to say you will have 1340 01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:43,240 Speaker 4: enough Republican votes. And even if you get to a 1341 01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:45,519 Speaker 4: fifty to fifty tie, you have the tie break with 1342 01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:47,960 Speaker 4: the Vice President JD. Van's the vice President being the 1343 01:25:48,000 --> 01:25:51,519 Speaker 4: president of the Senate, so you either have President Trump 1344 01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:53,559 Speaker 4: saying the more drastic thing is the removal of the 1345 01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 4: filibuster or I think you go to the cenator. Kennedy way, 1346 01:25:57,280 --> 01:25:59,680 Speaker 4: do the whole thing be a reconciliation, assuming that you 1347 01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 4: can that he's correct about this, and just move past 1348 01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:07,599 Speaker 4: these absolutely pathetic democrats in the Senate. 1349 01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:10,960 Speaker 14: This morning, I want to give an update on the 1350 01:26:11,040 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 14: Operation Epic Fury, which is an appropriate name because we 1351 01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:18,320 Speaker 14: are absolutely obliterating them. 1352 01:26:18,680 --> 01:26:20,439 Speaker 2: Over the past three weeks, we've been. 1353 01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:25,320 Speaker 14: Hitting Iran's military capabilities at a level that few people 1354 01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:28,920 Speaker 14: have ever seen before. People never knew there was such 1355 01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:31,720 Speaker 14: a capability. We had the strongest military anywhere in the 1356 01:26:31,720 --> 01:26:35,200 Speaker 14: world by far. I built it during my first administration, 1357 01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:40,880 Speaker 14: and I used it during my second administration, unfortunately because 1358 01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:43,599 Speaker 14: I'd rather not have to use it. But it's a 1359 01:26:43,600 --> 01:26:46,519 Speaker 14: display of force and precision and skill like nothing the 1360 01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:49,720 Speaker 14: world has really witnessed. Although you get a pretty good 1361 01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:53,120 Speaker 14: witnessing of it invent as well also, and that was 1362 01:26:53,160 --> 01:26:57,719 Speaker 14: a smaller version of what we're doing now. We're crushing 1363 01:26:57,720 --> 01:27:01,679 Speaker 14: their missiles and drone stockpiles. To show the Defense Industrial Base. 1364 01:27:02,240 --> 01:27:06,680 Speaker 14: We've wiped out their navy completely, their air force completely, 1365 01:27:06,760 --> 01:27:11,760 Speaker 14: We've wiped out a large percentage of their missiles and 1366 01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:16,120 Speaker 14: the missile launchers. Without the launchers, you can't the missiles 1367 01:27:16,160 --> 01:27:17,840 Speaker 14: don't do any good. 1368 01:27:18,560 --> 01:27:20,720 Speaker 2: And we've knocked out probably close to. 1369 01:27:20,760 --> 01:27:25,040 Speaker 14: Ninety percent of the launchers, probably more than ninety percent 1370 01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:27,559 Speaker 14: of the missiles themselves, between some of they fired and 1371 01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:29,439 Speaker 14: more than they. 1372 01:27:29,280 --> 01:27:34,439 Speaker 2: Fired we knocked out. We've also destroyed a lot of 1373 01:27:34,479 --> 01:27:35,120 Speaker 2: the factories. 1374 01:27:35,160 --> 01:27:37,000 Speaker 14: Were continuing to do that, but a lot of the 1375 01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:39,920 Speaker 14: factories where they manufactured the drones and the missiles. 1376 01:27:40,439 --> 01:27:41,800 Speaker 2: The drones two are way down. 1377 01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:45,320 Speaker 14: But the reason they're down is they go one way. 1378 01:27:45,400 --> 01:27:47,960 Speaker 14: They don't come back because for the most part, we're 1379 01:27:47,960 --> 01:27:51,559 Speaker 14: shooting them down. But we also are able to We've 1380 01:27:51,720 --> 01:27:54,840 Speaker 14: really done tremendous damage to the places where they make them. 1381 01:27:55,600 --> 01:27:57,639 Speaker 14: And just so we set the record straight, because I've 1382 01:27:57,640 --> 01:28:00,920 Speaker 14: been watching the Wall Street journals, takes and all these 1383 01:28:00,960 --> 01:28:03,080 Speaker 14: stories that get printed, like, oh, I want to make 1384 01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:03,439 Speaker 14: a deal. 1385 01:28:04,320 --> 01:28:07,040 Speaker 2: They are begging to make a deal, not me. They're 1386 01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:10,599 Speaker 2: begging to make a deal. And anybody that saw what. 1387 01:28:10,400 --> 01:28:12,840 Speaker 14: Was happening over there would understand why they want to 1388 01:28:12,880 --> 01:28:16,200 Speaker 14: make a deal. But they say, oh, we're not talking 1389 01:28:16,240 --> 01:28:20,280 Speaker 14: to anybody would know that only a total flynd. They're 1390 01:28:20,280 --> 01:28:22,639 Speaker 14: not fools, they're very smart. Actually, in a certain way. 1391 01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:26,479 Speaker 14: And they're great negotiators. I say they're a lousy fighters, 1392 01:28:26,479 --> 01:28:30,679 Speaker 14: but they're great negotiators, and they. 1393 01:28:30,560 --> 01:28:34,519 Speaker 2: Are begging to work out a deal. I don't know 1394 01:28:34,560 --> 01:28:35,960 Speaker 2: if we'll be able to do that. I don't know 1395 01:28:35,960 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 2: if we're willing to do that. They should have done 1396 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:39,800 Speaker 2: that four weeks ago. 1397 01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:43,240 Speaker 14: They should have done it two years ago, or they 1398 01:28:43,240 --> 01:28:45,240 Speaker 14: should have done it when we first came into office, 1399 01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:50,040 Speaker 14: because two years ago, that free reign under Biden, Sleepy Joe, 1400 01:28:50,840 --> 01:28:53,519 Speaker 14: worst president in the history of our country, what he 1401 01:28:53,600 --> 01:28:56,360 Speaker 14: allowed to happen to our country at the borders, and 1402 01:28:56,439 --> 01:28:59,200 Speaker 14: even with a thing like this, but not just him, 1403 01:28:59,320 --> 01:29:02,320 Speaker 14: every president for forty seven years, every president should have 1404 01:29:02,360 --> 01:29:04,200 Speaker 14: done this. They should have done it a long time ago, 1405 01:29:04,240 --> 01:29:08,040 Speaker 14: because you cannot give lunatics a nuclear weapon. 1406 01:29:08,200 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 4: And you correct, you cannot give lunatics a nuclear weapon. 1407 01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:16,679 Speaker 4: You cannot allow terrorism to fester. You can't. Now, As 1408 01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:19,679 Speaker 4: for this idea of we're trying to make a deal, 1409 01:29:19,800 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 4: and we presented them deals and all, there is no 1410 01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:27,240 Speaker 4: knowing what's really going on behind the scenes. They know 1411 01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:32,240 Speaker 4: and we don't. Now. I think that this bothers a 1412 01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:35,160 Speaker 4: great number of people. I'm not someone bothered by it. 1413 01:29:35,240 --> 01:29:39,040 Speaker 4: I've always accepted the idea that part of the electing 1414 01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:42,880 Speaker 4: of leaders is that their job is to handle the thing, 1415 01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:46,880 Speaker 4: and you don't always get to know everything. Now, when 1416 01:29:46,920 --> 01:29:50,000 Speaker 4: secrets are kept from Americans because things are being utilized 1417 01:29:50,040 --> 01:29:55,519 Speaker 4: against Americans, well that's a different conversation. But I don't 1418 01:29:55,520 --> 01:29:59,880 Speaker 4: need to know everything. I accept the fact that misdirection 1419 01:30:00,120 --> 01:30:02,720 Speaker 4: it takes place, and I think that that has been 1420 01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:08,840 Speaker 4: brought back into the fold of this, of our presentation 1421 01:30:08,960 --> 01:30:14,400 Speaker 4: of our policies in a good, smart and valuable way, 1422 01:30:14,520 --> 01:30:19,280 Speaker 4: it has been important that this take place. Should we 1423 01:30:19,400 --> 01:30:23,439 Speaker 4: have dealt with the Iranian threat before this, absolutely no 1424 01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:26,760 Speaker 4: question that we should have. I should, however, give it 1425 01:30:26,840 --> 01:30:29,920 Speaker 4: the caveat that I think. I don't know if the 1426 01:30:29,960 --> 01:30:31,840 Speaker 4: presidents he certainly won't. I don't know if he knows 1427 01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:35,720 Speaker 4: he even think that he has to, But I give it. 1428 01:30:35,720 --> 01:30:39,080 Speaker 4: It is possible to say that when we were talking 1429 01:30:39,120 --> 01:30:43,679 Speaker 4: about Iran in the eighties and the nineties, maybe though 1430 01:30:43,720 --> 01:30:47,960 Speaker 4: we were massively strong, maybe we were concerned about other things, 1431 01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:50,599 Speaker 4: about what the Iranians could do in their possibilities, where 1432 01:30:50,640 --> 01:30:53,000 Speaker 4: the capabilities were that we didn't note because we didn't 1433 01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:56,640 Speaker 4: have that level of advancement in the technology to know everything, 1434 01:30:57,560 --> 01:31:01,800 Speaker 4: it's possible, possible to give a grace. But as a concept, 1435 01:31:02,120 --> 01:31:04,519 Speaker 4: the Iranians had to be dealt with. This regime had 1436 01:31:04,520 --> 01:31:07,000 Speaker 4: to be dealt with. And now it's getting dealt with. 1437 01:31:08,040 --> 01:31:10,120 Speaker 4: Let's get into this cabinet meeting and hear what some 1438 01:31:10,200 --> 01:31:12,120 Speaker 4: of the other cabinet officials have to say. More is 1439 01:31:12,120 --> 01:31:19,839 Speaker 4: coming up. This is Tony Kats today. So the cabinet 1440 01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:23,400 Speaker 4: meeting continued, and I'm bringing it to you because when 1441 01:31:23,400 --> 01:31:26,320 Speaker 4: Trump gets on a roll, I don't know, it's just 1442 01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:30,080 Speaker 4: such a joy. And sometimes in those stream of consciousness 1443 01:31:30,120 --> 01:31:34,479 Speaker 4: moments he actually learned something about the man Tony Kats. 1444 01:31:34,520 --> 01:31:36,840 Speaker 4: Tony Kats today, good to be with you. And so 1445 01:31:36,920 --> 01:31:39,599 Speaker 4: as he's talking, making the opening statement about what's going 1446 01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:48,519 Speaker 4: on with Iran, he gets into NATO and the UK. Yeah, 1447 01:31:48,560 --> 01:31:52,280 Speaker 4: he's a he's throwing punches as he does, get. 1448 01:31:52,120 --> 01:31:55,840 Speaker 2: Dragged into their wars. Ees. One thing, we're very disappointed. 1449 01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:56,719 Speaker 2: I'll say it publicly. 1450 01:31:56,800 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 14: We're very disappointed with NATO because NATO has done absolutely nothing. 1451 01:32:02,400 --> 01:32:04,559 Speaker 14: And I've always said twenty five years ago, I mean 1452 01:32:04,600 --> 01:32:07,439 Speaker 14: I was somebody that wasn't a politician, but I was 1453 01:32:07,479 --> 01:32:11,880 Speaker 14: always involved in politics arounderstood politics. I said twenty five 1454 01:32:11,960 --> 01:32:15,840 Speaker 14: years ago that NATO's a paper tiger, but more importantly 1455 01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:18,360 Speaker 14: that we'll come to their rescue, but they will. 1456 01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:19,200 Speaker 2: Never come to ours. 1457 01:32:20,040 --> 01:32:21,720 Speaker 14: And I want you to remember that we said this, 1458 01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:24,360 Speaker 14: they didn't come to our rescue. Now they all want 1459 01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:28,760 Speaker 14: to help when they're annihilated. The other side is annihilated. 1460 01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:31,800 Speaker 14: They said we'd love to send ships. Actually made a 1461 01:32:31,800 --> 01:32:34,720 Speaker 14: statement a couple of them that we want to get 1462 01:32:34,760 --> 01:32:37,040 Speaker 14: involved when the war's over. No, it's supposed to get 1463 01:32:37,040 --> 01:32:41,719 Speaker 14: involved with the wars beginning or even before it begins. 1464 01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:45,800 Speaker 2: We had the UK say that we'll send this is 1465 01:32:45,840 --> 01:32:46,559 Speaker 2: three weeks ago. 1466 01:32:46,640 --> 01:32:49,439 Speaker 14: We'll send our aircraft carriers, which aren't the best aircraft 1467 01:32:49,520 --> 01:32:52,120 Speaker 14: carriers by the way, the toys compared to what we have. 1468 01:32:52,920 --> 01:32:56,800 Speaker 14: But we'll send our aircraft carrier when the war's over. 1469 01:32:57,479 --> 01:32:59,720 Speaker 14: I said, oh, that's wonderful, thank you very much. 1470 01:33:00,120 --> 01:33:03,639 Speaker 2: Don't bother. We don't need it, and we don't need 1471 01:33:03,640 --> 01:33:04,679 Speaker 2: it and we don't need them. 1472 01:33:05,320 --> 01:33:08,240 Speaker 14: We estimated it would take approximately four to six weeks 1473 01:33:08,280 --> 01:33:12,240 Speaker 14: to achieve our mission, and we're way ahead of schedule. 1474 01:33:13,479 --> 01:33:16,479 Speaker 14: If you look at what we've done in terms of 1475 01:33:16,520 --> 01:33:19,160 Speaker 14: the destruction of that country have been We're way ahead. 1476 01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:22,120 Speaker 2: Think of it. They have no navy, and they had 1477 01:33:22,120 --> 01:33:22,639 Speaker 2: good ships. 1478 01:33:22,640 --> 01:33:25,000 Speaker 14: One hundred and fifty four ships have been shut down 1479 01:33:25,560 --> 01:33:28,560 Speaker 14: and are resting very nicely at the bottom. 1480 01:33:28,280 --> 01:33:30,800 Speaker 2: Of the sea. And we did that in a matter 1481 01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:32,439 Speaker 2: of less than a week. 1482 01:33:33,479 --> 01:33:35,800 Speaker 14: Because we have the greatest military in the world by far, 1483 01:33:36,120 --> 01:33:41,080 Speaker 14: nobody even close, So we estimated it would take approximately 1484 01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:41,400 Speaker 14: for this. 1485 01:33:41,920 --> 01:33:45,000 Speaker 4: Stop him here just for a second, I know, four 1486 01:33:45,000 --> 01:33:46,680 Speaker 4: to six weeks in all this jazz, and then you 1487 01:33:46,720 --> 01:33:48,800 Speaker 4: tell us you're ahead of schedule, but we don't know 1488 01:33:48,840 --> 01:33:52,640 Speaker 4: the schedule. The schedule means in the end of this 1489 01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:55,800 Speaker 4: timeframe we will have done X. And the question, of course, 1490 01:33:55,920 --> 01:34:00,320 Speaker 4: is what is X. This is the key question, the 1491 01:34:00,360 --> 01:34:07,640 Speaker 4: fundamental Is this about the end of the regime or 1492 01:34:07,680 --> 01:34:12,280 Speaker 4: is this just about eliminating nuclear capability? Which one is it? 1493 01:34:13,920 --> 01:34:19,479 Speaker 4: That's the question. And then he got into of course markets, 1494 01:34:19,560 --> 01:34:24,320 Speaker 4: what's going on with oil and how things are affecting Americans, 1495 01:34:24,320 --> 01:34:25,720 Speaker 4: and trade and farmers. 1496 01:34:26,000 --> 01:34:28,640 Speaker 14: Fifty thousand doing a four year period because it was 1497 01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:31,519 Speaker 14: too high number, Well, we hit it in our first year. 1498 01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:34,680 Speaker 14: And I said, well, now we have to take an 1499 01:34:34,680 --> 01:34:37,920 Speaker 14: excursion to Iran, and we have to stop this maniac 1500 01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:44,360 Speaker 14: who's no longer with us, the Supreme leaders, supreme no 1501 01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:47,360 Speaker 14: longer with us, very said, but we have to stop 1502 01:34:47,439 --> 01:34:51,439 Speaker 14: him from blowing up the world, blowing up the Middle East, 1503 01:34:51,439 --> 01:34:52,599 Speaker 14: and blowing up our country. 1504 01:34:52,640 --> 01:34:57,400 Speaker 2: And we did that. And I thought, frankly, I thought. 1505 01:34:57,160 --> 01:34:59,840 Speaker 14: The O prices would go up more, and I thought 1506 01:34:59,840 --> 01:35:01,599 Speaker 14: this stock market would go down more. 1507 01:35:02,120 --> 01:35:04,760 Speaker 2: Hasn't been nearly as severe as I thought. 1508 01:35:04,800 --> 01:35:07,680 Speaker 14: I think they have confidence, and maybe the American President 1509 01:35:08,120 --> 01:35:11,600 Speaker 14: and maybe the people sitting around this table, but Americans 1510 01:35:12,040 --> 01:35:16,160 Speaker 14: finally their taxes this year, receiving record setting refunds. It's 1511 01:35:16,200 --> 01:35:18,000 Speaker 14: been a very big story. Well it should be a 1512 01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:19,800 Speaker 14: big story. I don't think you read about it that much. 1513 01:35:20,479 --> 01:35:24,120 Speaker 14: I speak about it, you know, I speak about it 1514 01:35:24,200 --> 01:35:26,320 Speaker 14: because if I speak about it, at least people here, you. 1515 01:35:26,240 --> 01:35:27,040 Speaker 2: Don't write about it. 1516 01:35:28,320 --> 01:35:31,920 Speaker 14: You don't write about the drug prices going down. 1517 01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:33,760 Speaker 2: It will be going down thirty. 1518 01:35:33,560 --> 01:35:40,120 Speaker 14: Forty, fifty, sixty, seventy percent. Favored nations called most favored nations. 1519 01:35:40,120 --> 01:35:41,960 Speaker 14: We're going to be paying the lowest price anywhere in 1520 01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:44,679 Speaker 14: the world. Before we paid the highest price in the world, 1521 01:35:44,720 --> 01:35:47,280 Speaker 14: Bobby right, And now we're going to pay the lowest 1522 01:35:47,280 --> 01:35:48,000 Speaker 14: price in the world. 1523 01:35:48,160 --> 01:35:49,320 Speaker 2: That's quite a difference. 1524 01:35:49,840 --> 01:35:54,479 Speaker 14: It's the difference of from forty to seventy and eighty 1525 01:35:54,479 --> 01:35:55,599 Speaker 14: and even ninety percent. 1526 01:35:55,640 --> 01:35:56,839 Speaker 2: That's a pretty big difference. 1527 01:35:57,920 --> 01:36:01,559 Speaker 14: But with slashing regulations and is pouring in from all 1528 01:36:01,600 --> 01:36:04,519 Speaker 14: over the world, we have the most investment of any 1529 01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:07,800 Speaker 14: country in history has been put into our country in 1530 01:36:07,840 --> 01:36:08,840 Speaker 14: the last year. 1531 01:36:08,880 --> 01:36:10,599 Speaker 2: And again we had to take a little detour. 1532 01:36:11,400 --> 01:36:15,519 Speaker 14: Won't be long, and soon we had to take a 1533 01:36:15,560 --> 01:36:19,479 Speaker 14: little detour, go to a wren and we had to 1534 01:36:19,479 --> 01:36:22,160 Speaker 14: put out a fire, pretty dangerous fire that could have 1535 01:36:22,160 --> 01:36:24,960 Speaker 14: blown up big portions of the world, if not the 1536 01:36:25,040 --> 01:36:25,519 Speaker 14: whole thing. 1537 01:36:26,520 --> 01:36:28,920 Speaker 4: You can't call it an excursion. You can't call it 1538 01:36:28,960 --> 01:36:32,160 Speaker 4: a detour. When you have dead soldiers and you're putting 1539 01:36:32,200 --> 01:36:35,400 Speaker 4: people on the line, you have to present it better 1540 01:36:35,439 --> 01:36:37,840 Speaker 4: than that. It's just it's gonna help him. Don't get 1541 01:36:37,880 --> 01:36:40,360 Speaker 4: mad at me. It's gonna help him if he just 1542 01:36:40,439 --> 01:36:45,439 Speaker 4: does it. If you would just listen. Oh you could argue, Tony, 1543 01:36:45,439 --> 01:36:47,719 Speaker 4: that's just a personal thing with you. It drives you nuts. 1544 01:36:48,120 --> 01:36:52,599 Speaker 4: You're you're the only person it's driving nuts. I doubt that, 1545 01:36:52,720 --> 01:36:55,880 Speaker 4: but sure. And then the president started to move it 1546 01:36:55,880 --> 01:36:58,840 Speaker 4: around the horn. I believe it started with Vice President 1547 01:36:58,880 --> 01:36:59,280 Speaker 4: of Vance. 1548 01:37:00,360 --> 01:37:03,240 Speaker 7: Yes, circle, thank you. It's good to see everybody proud 1549 01:37:03,280 --> 01:37:03,840 Speaker 7: to be part. 1550 01:37:03,680 --> 01:37:05,360 Speaker 15: Of the seam, proud to be serving the president of 1551 01:37:05,360 --> 01:37:07,240 Speaker 15: the country. They just say a couple of things. So 1552 01:37:07,280 --> 01:37:10,719 Speaker 15: first of all, is the President summarize this very ably, 1553 01:37:11,240 --> 01:37:15,599 Speaker 15: But look the Iranian conventional military, it's effectively destroyed. They 1554 01:37:15,600 --> 01:37:17,560 Speaker 15: don't have a navy, they don't have the ability to 1555 01:37:17,640 --> 01:37:19,360 Speaker 15: hit us like they could have even a few weeks ago. 1556 01:37:19,360 --> 01:37:20,120 Speaker 4: And what that does is that. 1557 01:37:20,080 --> 01:37:21,479 Speaker 5: Gives us options, mister President. 1558 01:37:22,160 --> 01:37:25,080 Speaker 15: Now, there's been a lot of reporting about diplomatic options, 1559 01:37:25,120 --> 01:37:28,320 Speaker 15: about negotiations. There's, of course Pete and his team. There 1560 01:37:28,320 --> 01:37:31,400 Speaker 15: are further military options. But what we have now that 1561 01:37:31,479 --> 01:37:33,360 Speaker 15: we didn't have when the President took over just a 1562 01:37:33,400 --> 01:37:37,000 Speaker 15: little over a year ago, is the ability to use 1563 01:37:37,320 --> 01:37:40,479 Speaker 15: every tool at our disposal to ensure that Iran doesn't 1564 01:37:40,479 --> 01:37:42,880 Speaker 15: get a nuclear weapon. Because when I say options, I 1565 01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:45,680 Speaker 15: think it's important the American people know options for what, 1566 01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:48,760 Speaker 15: and it's options to ensure that Iran never has a 1567 01:37:48,840 --> 01:37:51,479 Speaker 15: nuclear weapon. You talk about people who walk into a 1568 01:37:51,479 --> 01:37:54,280 Speaker 15: crowded supermarket and have a vest on and they blow 1569 01:37:54,360 --> 01:37:56,280 Speaker 15: up the vest and a couple of people get killed, and. 1570 01:37:56,200 --> 01:37:57,200 Speaker 4: That's a terrible tragedy. 1571 01:37:57,240 --> 01:37:59,519 Speaker 15: What happens when what's on the vest it's not something 1572 01:37:59,520 --> 01:38:02,360 Speaker 15: that can kill a couple of people, but can kill many, many, 1573 01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:05,240 Speaker 15: tens of thousands of people. That is the most important 1574 01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:09,360 Speaker 15: American national security objective that exists for any administration at 1575 01:38:09,400 --> 01:38:11,920 Speaker 15: any time is you don't want the worst people in 1576 01:38:11,960 --> 01:38:13,840 Speaker 15: the world to have a nuclear weapon. That's why the 1577 01:38:13,880 --> 01:38:16,600 Speaker 15: President is doing this, That's why the President cares so 1578 01:38:16,720 --> 01:38:19,160 Speaker 15: much about this particular issue. All let's see you talk 1579 01:38:19,280 --> 01:38:22,000 Speaker 15: a little bit about the details of the negotiation. 1580 01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:24,360 Speaker 4: But the last thing I'll say before I turn it 1581 01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:25,360 Speaker 4: over to Marco. 1582 01:38:25,240 --> 01:38:27,760 Speaker 15: Is I'm very mindful, of course, that we have a 1583 01:38:27,800 --> 01:38:30,639 Speaker 15: lot of folks overseas fighting very ably for the United 1584 01:38:30,720 --> 01:38:31,680 Speaker 15: States of America and. 1585 01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:32,919 Speaker 7: Heat and the whole team. 1586 01:38:33,040 --> 01:38:34,120 Speaker 4: We're very proud of them. 1587 01:38:34,400 --> 01:38:37,639 Speaker 15: But they're fighting at a time where we are about 1588 01:38:37,640 --> 01:38:41,040 Speaker 15: to enter, as Christians the most important week of the 1589 01:38:41,160 --> 01:38:44,200 Speaker 15: Christian calendar, the Holy Week that celebrates the return of 1590 01:38:44,280 --> 01:38:46,680 Speaker 15: Jesus Christ to Jerusalem. And so I want to say 1591 01:38:46,680 --> 01:38:49,760 Speaker 15: to all of my fellow American Christians, but particularly those 1592 01:38:49,800 --> 01:38:51,880 Speaker 15: serving in the Gulf, that I wish you all very 1593 01:38:51,920 --> 01:38:56,360 Speaker 15: blessed Easter, a very blessed Holy week, and we continue 1594 01:38:56,360 --> 01:38:58,559 Speaker 15: to stand behind you and continue to support you every 1595 01:38:58,600 --> 01:38:59,120 Speaker 15: step the way. 1596 01:38:59,280 --> 01:38:59,880 Speaker 2: Thank you, sir. 1597 01:39:00,400 --> 01:39:05,320 Speaker 4: Now it we could actually break down for a while. 1598 01:39:06,200 --> 01:39:11,120 Speaker 4: How intentional that was from the Vice president? How purposeful 1599 01:39:11,439 --> 01:39:16,760 Speaker 4: people are going to read into this level of coded right, 1600 01:39:16,840 --> 01:39:19,920 Speaker 4: because that's what they're going to do. Can I just 1601 01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:26,400 Speaker 4: take a moment, very nice gesture, very nice gesture, good reminder, 1602 01:39:26,720 --> 01:39:30,600 Speaker 4: good recognition, zero issue with it whatsoever because I'm not 1603 01:39:30,640 --> 01:39:33,080 Speaker 4: going to read into it. Other people are going to 1604 01:39:33,120 --> 01:39:35,960 Speaker 4: do that, And I say, oh, bless your heart me. 1605 01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:42,400 Speaker 4: It's Easter, and it is for a lot of people 1606 01:39:43,640 --> 01:39:49,640 Speaker 4: very important. It is the basis of their entire belief system. 1607 01:39:50,200 --> 01:39:53,759 Speaker 4: I think noting that, recognizing that, wanting to be engaged 1608 01:39:53,800 --> 01:39:57,760 Speaker 4: with that, that's worthwhile from any elected official. Do I 1609 01:39:57,760 --> 01:40:00,519 Speaker 4: think there was purpose to it? Absolutely? People are going 1610 01:40:00,520 --> 01:40:03,200 Speaker 4: to read into it into the code, sure me. No, 1611 01:40:04,200 --> 01:40:07,160 Speaker 4: I have no issue with that message whatsoever. Keep it here. 1612 01:40:07,280 --> 01:40:09,840 Speaker 4: This is Tony Katz today. So we've been following the 1613 01:40:09,840 --> 01:40:13,840 Speaker 4: cabinet meeting that happened today. Tony Katz, Tony Katz today 1614 01:40:13,880 --> 01:40:18,519 Speaker 4: an absolute pleasure, and the President shared his thoughts is 1615 01:40:18,640 --> 01:40:21,760 Speaker 4: very often a stream of consciousness kind of thoughts. And 1616 01:40:21,760 --> 01:40:23,840 Speaker 4: then it went to the Vice President, Jade Vance and 1617 01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:29,519 Speaker 4: very specific about how we degraded Iranian leadership, destroyed their leadership, 1618 01:40:29,560 --> 01:40:33,960 Speaker 4: degraded their navy, gave a message of happy Easter. And 1619 01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:36,160 Speaker 4: when I say coded, by the way, people are going 1620 01:40:36,240 --> 01:40:38,040 Speaker 4: to look at that. Oh it's a coded message. This 1621 01:40:38,160 --> 01:40:41,240 Speaker 4: was an anti Israel message. It was a pro Israel message. 1622 01:40:42,040 --> 01:40:44,160 Speaker 4: I think he wished the troops are very happy Easter 1623 01:40:44,280 --> 01:40:46,600 Speaker 4: and reminded people that for a lot of people in 1624 01:40:46,600 --> 01:40:49,320 Speaker 4: the United States around the globe, Easter is everything. It's 1625 01:40:49,320 --> 01:40:52,680 Speaker 4: the foundation of their religious beliefs and zero issue with it. 1626 01:40:53,400 --> 01:40:55,479 Speaker 4: I'm gonna let other people read into whatever it is 1627 01:40:55,520 --> 01:40:59,439 Speaker 4: they want, you know, it just it doesn't It doesn't 1628 01:40:59,439 --> 01:41:03,400 Speaker 4: move me to think that I should dig into what 1629 01:41:03,479 --> 01:41:06,400 Speaker 4: is this political meaning here? Can't something just sometimes the 1630 01:41:06,400 --> 01:41:08,559 Speaker 4: cigar is just a cigar. Can it just be a 1631 01:41:08,560 --> 01:41:12,280 Speaker 4: happy Easter message? That's what I choose. And you heard 1632 01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:15,559 Speaker 4: President Trump say I'm very disappointed with NATO, and then 1633 01:41:15,600 --> 01:41:18,679 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, here's the chief of NATO, Mark Root. 1634 01:41:18,960 --> 01:41:21,920 Speaker 4: Are you tte talking Trump up? 1635 01:41:22,640 --> 01:41:25,559 Speaker 13: We have seen with North Korea if we negotiate for 1636 01:41:25,680 --> 01:41:29,040 Speaker 13: too long, you might pass the moment and you can 1637 01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:31,960 Speaker 13: still get this thing done. And North Korea now has 1638 01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:35,720 Speaker 13: to nuclear capability. If you run, would have to nuclear capability, 1639 01:41:35,720 --> 01:41:39,479 Speaker 13: including together with the missional capability. It will be a 1640 01:41:39,560 --> 01:41:43,320 Speaker 13: diary threat, an existential threat to Israel, to the region, 1641 01:41:43,840 --> 01:41:46,680 Speaker 13: to Europe, to the stability in the world. So the 1642 01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:50,120 Speaker 13: president doing this is crucial, and I've seen the balling, 1643 01:41:50,360 --> 01:41:52,360 Speaker 13: but I really hope the American people will be with 1644 01:41:52,439 --> 01:41:54,559 Speaker 13: him because he is doing this to make the whole 1645 01:41:54,560 --> 01:41:55,120 Speaker 13: world safer. 1646 01:41:55,439 --> 01:41:58,320 Speaker 4: And that's the way it has to be focused. It's 1647 01:41:58,360 --> 01:42:00,240 Speaker 4: not that I don't want Israel to be said. If 1648 01:42:00,280 --> 01:42:03,600 Speaker 4: I do, I need to be safe, America needs to 1649 01:42:03,640 --> 01:42:06,800 Speaker 4: be safe. I only move from is it in America's interest, 1650 01:42:06,840 --> 01:42:08,960 Speaker 4: And the answer is, of course, it's in America's interest 1651 01:42:09,160 --> 01:42:12,240 Speaker 4: to take out the Iranian regime. I find it weird 1652 01:42:12,240 --> 01:42:14,240 Speaker 4: that there are people who say, no, oh, it's not 1653 01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:18,439 Speaker 4: an imminent threat. I categorize those people as children. They 1654 01:42:18,479 --> 01:42:22,000 Speaker 4: shouldn't be allowed to operate heavy machinery. They should get 1655 01:42:22,040 --> 01:42:25,840 Speaker 4: a snack and then nap time because they clearly need it. 1656 01:42:26,560 --> 01:42:29,440 Speaker 4: They're not yet adult enough to handle what it is 1657 01:42:29,439 --> 01:42:32,280 Speaker 4: is going on out there, this terrorist threat that is 1658 01:42:32,280 --> 01:42:36,240 Speaker 4: a threat to every American to how Americans move around 1659 01:42:36,280 --> 01:42:41,280 Speaker 4: the globe. It's removal, the removal of the regime, never 1660 01:42:41,320 --> 01:42:45,120 Speaker 4: mind what we're talking about about, eliminating any nuclear possibility. 1661 01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:49,880 Speaker 4: All good, massive wins for all of us. And that's 1662 01:42:49,920 --> 01:42:52,240 Speaker 4: the way it's to be phrased. That it's good for Israel. 1663 01:42:52,280 --> 01:42:57,160 Speaker 4: Well great, their beneficiaries are we the beneficiaries. That's step one. 1664 01:42:58,200 --> 01:43:01,840 Speaker 4: That is step one. While the President moves things over 1665 01:43:01,960 --> 01:43:03,960 Speaker 4: to the Secret Shay of State Marco Rubiez. 1666 01:43:04,840 --> 01:43:07,200 Speaker 16: So the most important job any president has is to 1667 01:43:07,280 --> 01:43:10,080 Speaker 16: keep the American people safe. And every president says it, 1668 01:43:10,120 --> 01:43:11,880 Speaker 16: but we have a president that means it and does 1669 01:43:11,920 --> 01:43:14,880 Speaker 16: something about it. As the President outlined very clearly to 1670 01:43:14,920 --> 01:43:18,040 Speaker 16: the world on the night this operation began. Iran has 1671 01:43:18,040 --> 01:43:21,320 Speaker 16: been at war with the United States for forty seven years. 1672 01:43:21,479 --> 01:43:24,360 Speaker 16: Forty seven years, Iran has been killing Americans and attacking 1673 01:43:24,360 --> 01:43:25,839 Speaker 16: Americans across his planet. 1674 01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:27,840 Speaker 17: And now the President's had an opportunity to do. 1675 01:43:27,800 --> 01:43:28,519 Speaker 2: Something about it. 1676 01:43:28,760 --> 01:43:30,720 Speaker 17: And they all warned about how Iran was dangerous, but 1677 01:43:30,800 --> 01:43:33,080 Speaker 17: they refuse to act. And this President's not someone that's 1678 01:43:33,080 --> 01:43:34,080 Speaker 17: going to refuse to Act. 1679 01:43:34,240 --> 01:43:36,599 Speaker 16: He's not going to leave a danger like this in place. 1680 01:43:36,800 --> 01:43:38,519 Speaker 16: He's going to address it, and that is what he 1681 01:43:38,600 --> 01:43:41,160 Speaker 16: is doing. From the very first night of this operation, 1682 01:43:41,240 --> 01:43:44,080 Speaker 16: the President made it very clear, people like this and 1683 01:43:44,120 --> 01:43:45,519 Speaker 16: now what I'm talking about it is not the people 1684 01:43:45,520 --> 01:43:48,479 Speaker 16: of Iran. The people that run this country are radical 1685 01:43:48,520 --> 01:43:51,960 Speaker 16: Shiah clerics. These are religious fanatics. Look what they are 1686 01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:54,439 Speaker 16: doing now at their weakest point. This is the weakest 1687 01:43:54,439 --> 01:43:56,639 Speaker 16: Iran has ever been. And look at what they're doing. 1688 01:43:56,880 --> 01:44:02,280 Speaker 16: They're attacking embassies, they are embassies, attacking hotels. They imagine 1689 01:44:02,280 --> 01:44:04,200 Speaker 16: what these people would do if they had a nuclear weapon. 1690 01:44:04,240 --> 01:44:06,799 Speaker 17: That is an unacceptable risk for the world. 1691 01:44:07,040 --> 01:44:08,759 Speaker 16: By the way, the President's not just doing a favor 1692 01:44:08,800 --> 01:44:10,360 Speaker 16: to the United States and to our people. 1693 01:44:10,720 --> 01:44:12,040 Speaker 2: This is for the world. 1694 01:44:12,200 --> 01:44:14,320 Speaker 16: He defined very clearly on the first night of this 1695 01:44:14,400 --> 01:44:17,200 Speaker 16: operation what the goal was. We were going to destroy 1696 01:44:17,240 --> 01:44:20,040 Speaker 16: Iran's navy, and that is happening. We were going to 1697 01:44:20,160 --> 01:44:22,160 Speaker 16: If it hasn't already happened, I'll let Peep speak to 1698 01:44:22,200 --> 01:44:24,760 Speaker 16: the specifics of it. We were going to destroy their 1699 01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:26,760 Speaker 16: missile launching capabilities. 1700 01:44:26,800 --> 01:44:28,719 Speaker 17: We're well on our way to achieving that goal. 1701 01:44:28,920 --> 01:44:30,920 Speaker 16: We were going to destroy the factory so they couldn't 1702 01:44:30,960 --> 01:44:32,439 Speaker 16: make more missiles and more drums. 1703 01:44:32,600 --> 01:44:33,759 Speaker 2: And that is moving forward. 1704 01:44:34,160 --> 01:44:36,480 Speaker 17: Every single objective the President. 1705 01:44:36,120 --> 01:44:38,360 Speaker 16: Clearly laid out on the first night of this operation 1706 01:44:38,720 --> 01:44:41,760 Speaker 16: is being effectuated. Again, Petle, speak to the specifics of it. 1707 01:44:42,000 --> 01:44:45,160 Speaker 16: This has been an incredibly successful operation. Every day it 1708 01:44:45,240 --> 01:44:46,559 Speaker 16: may not get covered because you. 1709 01:44:46,479 --> 01:44:47,800 Speaker 2: Know, we're unlike them. 1710 01:44:47,800 --> 01:44:51,639 Speaker 16: We're not bombing embassies in hotels, we're hitting military targets. 1711 01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:55,200 Speaker 16: But every day the Department of War lets the drummer 1712 01:44:55,240 --> 01:44:58,080 Speaker 16: get wicked over every portion of Iran that has these 1713 01:44:58,120 --> 01:44:59,720 Speaker 16: military capabilities, and the. 1714 01:44:59,720 --> 01:45:01,599 Speaker 17: Resis alts are going to bear fruit for the world. 1715 01:45:01,640 --> 01:45:03,280 Speaker 16: The world is going to be a safer and a 1716 01:45:03,320 --> 01:45:07,200 Speaker 16: better place when President Trump's mission here is achieved. And frankly, 1717 01:45:07,240 --> 01:45:09,120 Speaker 16: I think countries around the world, even those that are 1718 01:45:09,120 --> 01:45:11,040 Speaker 16: out there complaining about this a little bit, it should 1719 01:45:11,040 --> 01:45:13,759 Speaker 16: actually be grateful that the United States as a president 1720 01:45:13,760 --> 01:45:14,600 Speaker 16: that's willing. 1721 01:45:14,479 --> 01:45:16,920 Speaker 17: To confront a threat like this and not allow. 1722 01:45:16,640 --> 01:45:19,559 Speaker 2: It to continue to persist. Because these people will. 1723 01:45:19,439 --> 01:45:21,800 Speaker 17: Kill as many Americans as they have a chance to do, 1724 01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:22,599 Speaker 17: and if they have a. 1725 01:45:22,560 --> 01:45:25,080 Speaker 16: Nuclear weapon, as the Vice President pointed out, they could 1726 01:45:25,160 --> 01:45:27,680 Speaker 16: kill millions of Americans in the future, and that is 1727 01:45:27,720 --> 01:45:29,920 Speaker 16: a risk that was not going to continue to exist 1728 01:45:30,120 --> 01:45:30,719 Speaker 16: as long as. 1729 01:45:30,640 --> 01:45:31,439 Speaker 2: We had this president. 1730 01:45:32,240 --> 01:45:35,680 Speaker 4: Now, I did start by saying, I don't like the 1731 01:45:35,760 --> 01:45:39,680 Speaker 4: overlaudatory stuff, the brown nosing stuff of the president. But 1732 01:45:39,760 --> 01:45:44,080 Speaker 4: did Marco Rubio just listen to us? That's how you 1733 01:45:44,280 --> 01:45:48,879 Speaker 4: present it. It is because when he's talking about the president, 1734 01:45:49,400 --> 01:45:51,960 Speaker 4: you can clearly make the line that he's talking about 1735 01:45:52,000 --> 01:45:54,880 Speaker 4: you and me and everyone who voted for him. We 1736 01:45:54,960 --> 01:45:57,320 Speaker 4: made the change. We wanted somebody who would lead. We 1737 01:45:57,360 --> 01:45:59,120 Speaker 4: wanted someone who would take on the threat. We wanted 1738 01:45:59,120 --> 01:46:00,599 Speaker 4: someone who would be the same I said. We wanted 1739 01:46:00,640 --> 01:46:03,200 Speaker 4: someone who would engage in overwhelming force because this is 1740 01:46:03,240 --> 01:46:06,200 Speaker 4: about America. This is for America, for America's safety, for 1741 01:46:06,280 --> 01:46:09,040 Speaker 4: America's security, And we're doing the job. We're hitting the 1742 01:46:09,040 --> 01:46:17,200 Speaker 4: targets where the guy is nearly unrivaled in his capability 1743 01:46:17,520 --> 01:46:21,679 Speaker 4: to explain. And I will admit I think that Trump 1744 01:46:21,880 --> 01:46:27,479 Speaker 4: has come to the realization that Marco is so good 1745 01:46:27,600 --> 01:46:31,200 Speaker 4: at this that even if he feels that Marco might 1746 01:46:31,280 --> 01:46:36,920 Speaker 4: sometimes steal his thunder in the presentation, it's worth it. 1747 01:46:36,920 --> 01:46:42,280 Speaker 4: It's better than creating a rift or creating any tension. 1748 01:46:43,040 --> 01:46:44,840 Speaker 4: Will he keep up with that I don't know, because 1749 01:46:44,880 --> 01:46:47,120 Speaker 4: I really do think he thought Jade Vance was the future. 1750 01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:49,800 Speaker 4: We are so far away from twenty twenty eight is 1751 01:46:49,840 --> 01:46:53,000 Speaker 4: to be believed. But Marco has been a win for him, 1752 01:46:53,200 --> 01:46:55,679 Speaker 4: a win in the press, a win with voters, all 1753 01:46:55,760 --> 01:47:00,439 Speaker 4: the way around, a win, and he did that very well. 1754 01:47:01,160 --> 01:47:05,000 Speaker 4: That's how you address it. What is it that we 1755 01:47:05,120 --> 01:47:07,400 Speaker 4: need to do, why is it that it needs to 1756 01:47:07,439 --> 01:47:11,320 Speaker 4: be done, and how does it benefit us the American people? 1757 01:47:11,720 --> 01:47:14,559 Speaker 4: That's the message. I can't believe we actually have to 1758 01:47:14,560 --> 01:47:17,840 Speaker 4: explain this to people. It blows my mind. Look at us, 1759 01:47:18,120 --> 01:47:20,000 Speaker 4: We have to explain to people why you have to 1760 01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:27,040 Speaker 4: discuss how it helps Americans first and foremost crazy town crazy. Remember, 1761 01:47:27,080 --> 01:47:31,160 Speaker 4: Democrats aren't interested in helping Americans at all. Another story 1762 01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:34,679 Speaker 4: for another day.
