1
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:10,879
Speaker 1: Why from the Hartland and the Crossroads of America. It's

2
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:43,959
Speaker 1: Tony Katz today, So.

3
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 2: I'll ask again for the people in cheap seats, who

4
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 2: in the world are we negotiating with? This is the question.

5
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 2: It's not a rude question, it's not a wrong question,

6
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 2: and it's certainly not the ignorance of people like joy

7
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 2: Behar on the view who want to make the purely

8
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 2: ignorance and all together stupid accusation that the US military

9
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 2: hasn't accomplished anyone.

10
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 3: I don't want to take away from what our men

11
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 3: and women have been doing over there, because what they've

12
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 3: accomplished is incredible. And if we can deter ron at

13
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 3: all three years.

14
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 2: Over the excite our military. That's military.

15
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: I think they do it with they're told far and what.

16
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 4: Have they accomplished?

17
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 5: Why you think they?

18
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 3: I think anytime we can deter Iran, whether it's for

19
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 3: another year, whether it's for I think.

20
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 2: There's a win for this. Obama had a deal in place.

21
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 2: And if you say to me, Tony, it's the view,

22
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: why do you pay attention, It's because it's what liberal

23
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 2: white women pay attention to, which is why they're so terrible,

24
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 2: why they're so misinformed, why they're so broken as people.

25
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 2: And if you think that's offensive, dear Lord, keep listening.

26
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 2: It only gets worse from here. Tony Kats, Tony Katz today, guys,

27
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 2: an absolute pleasure to be with you. We've got the

28
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 2: White House briefing that will be coming up in the

29
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 2: next hour Stephen Yeates, we'll be breaking down what's going

30
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 2: on in Iran.

31
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 4: And possible next steps.

32
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 2: If you ask what the military has accomplished, we have

33
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 2: accomplished what the JCPOA, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action,

34
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 2: the Obama Deal did not actually stopping them, or at

35
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 2: least proving that they were working on nuclear weapons. They

36
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 2: were working on long range missiles. They fired long range missiles,

37
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 2: and now they can't. And that's better. That's clearly better.

38
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 2: My problem is not the Joy Behar program problem. The

39
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 2: Joy Behar problem is that she is such a hateful

40
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: shrew of a huge human being. And if you're upset

41
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 2: with the word shrew, let me say for the record,

42
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 2: I cleaned it up for radio. She can't honestly address

43
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 2: the situation. Her hatred of Trump blinds any possibility, which

44
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 2: is why her and people like her are unserious people.

45
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 2: It's why they cannot be listened to. It's why they

46
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 2: should be mocked, ridiculed, and ignored. They deserve every bit

47
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: of laughter in their face that they get. Joy Behar

48
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 2: is definitively a dumb woman, and the view has no

49
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 2: interest in proactively sharing a story that matters. We know this.

50
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: And as for the woman who is cheering on the military,

51
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 2: cheering on the military is differently being asked the question

52
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 2: what did they do? They did what it is that

53
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 2: Barack Obama refused to do? Barack Obama gave them runway

54
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 2: to a nuclear weapon. We stopped that. It's better. You

55
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 2: know what we haven't done. We haven't ended the regime.

56
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 2: And when I hear that we have a deal with Iran,

57
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 2: I don't know what I'm supposed to do with that information.

58
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 4: What possible deal do.

59
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 2: We have with whom? The guy that they're talking about

60
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 2: is Mohammed Baga gallibaf g A l I b a F.

61
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 2: This was the spokesperson, I should say, the speaker for

62
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 2: the Iranian parliament. Now one could argue what kind of

63
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 2: power the Iranian parliament has, but one can clearly say

64
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 2: this is not the Iyatola, This is not the supreme

65
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 2: leader who decides everything.

66
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 4: And if you say to me, if.

67
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 2: Will we have a supreme leader, it's the son, it's Mojmatah.

68
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 2: Where the hell is that guy? Where the hell is.

69
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 4: That cardboard cut out of a human being? He's nowhere.

70
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 2: Right now, we're dealing with Iato autopen and allegedly this dude,

71
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 2: a guy who served in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps,

72
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 2: was a commander, was the mayor of Tehran. He denies

73
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 2: there any talks going on whatsoever. As a matter of fact,

74
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 2: not only are there not any talks going on, President

75
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 2: Trump is saying that Iran has fired one hundred and

76
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 2: one missiles at the USS Abraham Lincoln, some of them

77
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 2: maybe as of today.

78
00:05:58,560 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 4: This is an aircraft carrier.

79
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 2: We also have the Gerald Gerald Ford is making its

80
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 2: way to crete. If not, they're already because of a

81
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 2: fire that was on board. It's an aircraft carrier. Things

82
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 2: do go wrong, You repair, you move on, hopefully repair quickly.

83
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 2: The Iranians being people who I should say, the Iranian

84
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 2: regime always talking tough. Never a moment where they're not

85
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 2: talking tough. Twenty four to seven, tough guy. Oh there's

86
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 2: no deal, Oh, we're not we're not interested. And then

87
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,799
Speaker 2: you get the Wall Street Journal with a world class

88
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 2: headline of how the Iranians are playing hardball as mediators

89
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 2: push for talks with the US. You're gonna have Steve

90
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 2: Wickoff and some Iranians allegedly meeting on Thursday. Yes, the

91
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 2: Iranians like to make this claim of being tough and

92
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 2: therefore it's hardball. They'd play a lot less hardball if

93
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 2: they were dead. And this is where our conversation has

94
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 2: to be. Our conversation has to be what is victory?

95
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 2: The ignorance of the conversation on the view is what

96
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 2: has the military done. They are proactive to disparaging the

97
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 2: military because they're not actually disparaging the military, even though

98
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 2: they are. What they're doing is disparaging Trump. And when

99
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 2: you disparage Trump, anything that gets in the wake of

100
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 2: disparaging Trump is deemed acceptable.

101
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 4: This is who they are gold in my ear.

102
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 2: The former Prime Minister of Israel stated that we will

103
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 2: have peace with the Palestinians when they love their children

104
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 2: more than they hate us.

105
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 4: This is when the political.

106
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: Right will have peace with the political left, when they

107
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 2: love their country more than they hate Trump. And they

108
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 2: do not at this moment they hate Trump on the

109
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 2: political left more than they love their country.

110
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 4: This is not a debate that we're having.

111
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 2: They stated everywhere all the time, constantly and consistently. They're

112
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 2: not even shy about it. Ugly, ugly people. But we

113
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 2: do have to ask ourselves, how is it.

114
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 4: That we.

115
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 2: Where is the moment where we say, you know what,

116
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 2: this was actually worthwhile? By the way, I can feel

117
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 2: some of you judging me and asking the question of

118
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 2: what would make you say that the political left they

119
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 2: hate Trump more than they love their country. Okay, let's

120
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 2: let Senator Chris Van Holland, Democratic Maryland answer the question.

121
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 4: Henry, let me just put that to you.

122
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 2: Who do you think is telling you the truth?

123
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 4: Casey?

124
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 6: Unfortunately, we've learned that Donald Trump has been lying to

125
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 6: the American people from the start, and he keeps lying

126
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 6: to the American people, which is never a good thing.

127
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 3: You believe officials over the president of the United States.

128
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 6: I believe that based on all the information that's available

129
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 6: and Donald Trump's track record of line, including the big

130
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 6: lie which he told the American people during the campaign

131
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 6: that he was going to keep us out of war

132
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,559
Speaker 6: in the Middle East. He broke that promise. He lied

133
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 6: about Iran being an imminent threat the United States and

134
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 6: Israel launched this strike. He lied about Iran being on

135
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 6: the precipice of getting a nuclear weapon. We know that

136
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 6: because Tulsa Gabbard just testified just the opposite recently. And yes,

137
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 6: we know he's lying when he says that the Iranians

138
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,839
Speaker 6: are talking with us and they're about to give Donald

139
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 6: Trump everything he wants.

140
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 4: Yet now.

141
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 2: That is full on trying to demoralize the American troops,

142
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 2: to moralize the American people, and giving aid.

143
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 4: And comfort to the enemy.

144
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 2: Anything the President is discussing about conversations with the Iranians

145
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 2: should be taken with a massive grain of salts because

146
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,319
Speaker 2: it could all be deception. We are in a fight.

147
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 2: The problem here is not that Chris van Holland is stupid.

148
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 2: The problem here is that Chris van Holland hates you

149
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 2: more than he loves you.

150
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 4: He hates Trump more than he loves the country.

151
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 2: Is there any question now regarding enriched uranium at sixty

152
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 2: percent and US going in and getting it, which is

153
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 2: gonna involve boots on the ground, which is gonna be

154
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 2: a whole noother conversation. Is there any question that the Iranians

155
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 2: do have this capacity that could reach twenty five hundred

156
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 2: miles as they tried to hit the base at Diego

157
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 2: Garcia and could hit the whole of Europe. Is there

158
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 2: any question that the JCPOA was an unmitigated failure from

159
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 2: a fool named Barack Hussein Obama, from the fools who

160
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 2: are the Obama Bros, the Tommy Veters and the Ben

161
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 2: Rhodes who were always wrong on this subject. And is

162
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 2: there any question that Iran is the largest state sponsor

163
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 2: of terror, that they were engaged in supporting the Houthi

164
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 2: rebels in Yemen attacking US and other ships traveling the

165
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 2: Red Sea.

166
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 4: Is there any question.

167
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 2: That the Iranian regime was supporting terrorism in southern Lebanon

168
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,679
Speaker 2: and Hasblah with Hamas where Americans were killed on October seventh,

169
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 2: taken hostage and killed. There's no question, There's no doubt,

170
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 2: not from the honest, but from the hateful, from the file,

171
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 2: from the vicious, from those unwilling to stop with their

172
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 2: hate of President Trump for thirty seconds and recognize their

173
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 2: country means more, they don't believe that, they don't believe

174
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 2: that these people are unworthy of your vote, or your

175
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 2: love or your time.

176
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 4: No harm should befall them.

177
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 2: They just can't be allowed power because Chris van Holland,

178
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 2: mister Margarita himself is a weak weak man, And if

179
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 2: you want to know who he lies to, he lies

180
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 2: to himself because he knows that anything Trump is saying

181
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 2: about possible deals could actually be true, could actually be

182
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 2: on misdirection, could be something said here while he's setting

183
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 2: up something over there. Yes, that is absolutely possible. I

184
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 2: concede that that is possible. But this is warfare, which

185
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 2: is the key differentiator. Isn't it Trump keeping us out

186
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:46,319
Speaker 2: of wars?

187
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 4: Well? I was never somebody who voted for Trump on

188
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 4: that measure.

189
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 2: I live in the real world, where everything is possible,

190
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 2: and things change on a dime, and sometimes.

191
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 4: You have to deal with them.

192
00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 2: I never ascribed to the very, very childlike policy of

193
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 2: no more forever wars. I don't even know what the

194
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 2: hell that means.

195
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 4: No more forever wars should mean you go.

196
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 2: In, you kill everybody in a week, and you go home,

197
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 2: you have lunch. I would suggest pistrawmi. I mean, after

198
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 2: a long week, what would feel better huh. You think

199
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 2: I'm callous, you think I'm cold. No, I am discussing

200
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:23,199
Speaker 2: a strategy and a philosophy that I'm not interested in wars.

201
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 2: I'm interested in ending any threat to the United States

202
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,760
Speaker 2: with ferocity.

203
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 4: I'm very clear on this subject.

204
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 2: And for the people, I oh, sure, you're totally fine

205
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 2: going to war with other people's kids. It's always other

206
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 2: people's kids. And this is why people who say that

207
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 2: can't be in charge, because we need adults in the

208
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 2: room and they are still children, emotionally crippled, wrecked people. Yes,

209
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 2: I'm fully aware I'm sending somebody else's child into war,

210
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,599
Speaker 2: thank you very much. That's how it works. So we

211
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 2: shouldn't go for light and transient causes, and we shouldn't

212
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:03,079
Speaker 2: go half asked. We should go full, we should go overwhelming,

213
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 2: we should go heavy, and no one remains alive from

214
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 2: their side. That's my tank, that's my philosophy. I think

215
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 2: it's a winner. So now we get back to where

216
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 2: we started this thing with the fool Joy Behar, who's

217
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 2: a dumb woman. Quote me, it's fine, what does the

218
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 2: matter what she says? Our question is not what has

219
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 2: the military done? Our question should be did we achieve

220
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 2: the objective?

221
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 4: Did we achieve the objective? And I say to.

222
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 2: You that if any part of the regime remains, then no,

223
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 2: we didn't. You cannot allow the regime to remain. You

224
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 2: can allow no part of the regime to remain. Anybody

225
00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 2: connects to the IOTOL the must be destroyed. Anybody connected

226
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 2: to the IRGC must be destroyed. The IRGC, the Islamic

227
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 2: Revolutionary Guard Court must be broken in.

228
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 4: Two so these people can have their lives back.

229
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 2: Terrorism is not funded and we can stop thinking about

230
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 2: the fucking Middle East. That's an objective that was mine.

231
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 2: I accept that Trump's may be different, and I accept

232
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 2: that I may have to say to him, man, you

233
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 2: got that wrong. But I don't know if that's today.

234
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the way it's going to be.

235
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 2: I don't know if what's being telegraphed is actually true.

236
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 2: I saw a bed two bombers head to the west

237
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 2: while we went east and took out Isfahan, Natans and

238
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 2: four DAU. I don't know right now what's ahead fake

239
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 2: and what isn't. How this will end, I don't know.

240
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 2: I do know that the world without the terrorist regime

241
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 2: of Iran is a better world. I do know.

242
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 4: That's not Israel trying to keep America in this.

243
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 2: It's Saudi Arabia that begged Donald Trump to keep it up. Well,

244
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 2: of course, the Saudis want to get rid of the

245
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 2: Iranian threat and engage hegemonic power in the region.

246
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 4: Everyone's got their reasons.

247
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 2: Ours is to end the terrorist threat, end any possibility

248
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 2: of a nuclear threat, and then think about something else

249
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 2: that involves removing the regime.

250
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 4: That's what I want Trump to do.

251
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 2: If he doesn't, well, then I don't know what the

252
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,680
Speaker 2: object if the objective he had solves anything.

253
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 4: I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Kats Today.

254
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 2: White House briefing is scheduled for today. I'm going to

255
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 2: bet money that that is going to have a little bit.

256
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 4: Of fireworks to it.

257
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 2: You've got the war and Department of Homeland Security is

258
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 2: still not funded.

259
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 4: The Democrats won't do it.

260
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 2: And I gotta tell you, first of all, Tony Katz,

261
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 2: Tony Kats today, how you doing?

262
00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 4: How's your mother?

263
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you that I.

264
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 4: I may have misread a tea leaf.

265
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 2: I expected when the Democrats started saying, well, we'll fund TSA,

266
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 2: but we're not going to fund DICE, and we'll get

267
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 2: these lines moving in. Why won't you find TSA and

268
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 2: why won't you do this? Do that? I thought that

269
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 2: Republicans were absolutely going to get walloped on that. I

270
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 2: thought they were going to get crashed on that.

271
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 4: Well it's been about a week and a half.

272
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 2: Nope. And I gotta tell you, I I could prognosticate,

273
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,119
Speaker 2: and I can take a look at everything, and I

274
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 2: could utilize my sources. I can come up with Okay,

275
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 2: here's where I think things are going. But I made

276
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 2: mistakes before. I'm trying to figure out why this didn't happen.

277
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 2: How here you have Democrats refusing to fund the Department

278
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 2: of Homelands Curity, and they're not even They're not remotely

279
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 2: shy about it.

280
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 4: They're not funding DHS.

281
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 2: They don't care, and they keep moving the goalposts when

282
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 2: it comes to what they want regarding Ice in edity,

283
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 2: Ice can't do this, and ICE can't do that, Ice

284
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 2: can't do the other, and ICE can't do your mother,

285
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,360
Speaker 2: and I well that was just rude. No Ice bad.

286
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 2: They really want Ice gone. They want people who are

287
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,719
Speaker 2: legally in the country to stay in the country. They

288
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 2: want them to be voters.

289
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 4: This is a power play.

290
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 2: It's it's clear and it's obvious, but it's obvious to us.

291
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 2: And so now I'm forced to ask, is it obvious

292
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 2: to others? Am I getting my hopes something? And that's

293
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 2: why I've put myself. I put myself in like I

294
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 2: get a little teary on. I've put myself in the

295
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 2: place of there's no way that's possible that the American

296
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 2: people saw this move from the Democrats, like.

297
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,120
Speaker 4: Oh, those people are full of craft.

298
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 2: There's no way that happened. Because if it did, if

299
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 2: it did, oh my gosh, what else is possible?

300
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 4: And so I brought this up briefly yesterday, and I

301
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 4: wasn't sure if I was going to get into it.

302
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:13,919
Speaker 2: You know, everybody talking about the fact that Republicans are

303
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 2: gonna get slaughtered in the midterms. Now, you know, I

304
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 2: have a path to midterm victory, and right now Republicans

305
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 2: are not taking it the way I want them to

306
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 2: take it. But this idea they're gonna get slaughtered, everything's possible,

307
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 2: and I can read it tee lely Frong, but I

308
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 2: don't know.

309
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 4: If that's the case. Let's discuss this thirty days from that.

310
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz. So what does it mean to be

311
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 2: at war? What does warfare actually look like? And let's

312
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 2: discuss the art of deception when it comes to warfare.

313
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 2: I mean it's a huge part of things. I get

314
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 2: that we may not like it. I get that the

315
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 2: American press can't stand it. But if you did what

316
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 2: the American press said to do, you would lose everything,

317
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 2: all the time, everywhere. Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, Good

318
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 2: to be with you. Steve Yates joins me right now.

319
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 2: He is the Senior Research Fellow on China Natural Security

320
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 2: Policy and is at the Young Fellow Asian Study Center

321
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 2: with the Heritage Foundation, and sir, good to be with you.

322
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 2: We were talking a little bit before we joined the

323
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 2: radio show about what it is that we're seeing from

324
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:30,439
Speaker 2: President Trump when there is this conversation about how he

325
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 2: is speaking to the Iranians and how the Iranians offered

326
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 2: him a gift on it was about oil and natural gas.

327
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 4: I don't know what the gift is.

328
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 2: You take a look at the Wall Street Journal and

329
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 2: they've got the headline a wannabe strong man rises in

330
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 2: Iran as Trump seeks a deal maker and this is

331
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 2: Mohammed Bager Galibaf, who is the spokesperson or the speaker

332
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,159
Speaker 2: I should say, of the Iranian in a parliament.

333
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 4: Now, I think the first question is who.

334
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 2: Made this guy as somebody who could speak for the

335
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 2: Iranian people? And then the follow up is how can

336
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 2: the president make a claim that he's talking to a

337
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 2: Ran about a deal and ending nuclear weapons this and

338
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,400
Speaker 2: ending the war that when you've also bragged that you've

339
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 2: killed the entire leadership.

340
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,479
Speaker 7: Well Tony, I think what makes it difficult for us

341
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 7: is that a lot of these things are true at

342
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 7: the same time. Number One, we don't really get to

343
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 7: know who the president is talking to yet, because to

344
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 7: publicly identify that person is to put the world's biggest

345
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 7: bullseye on them by islam As terrorists and the remnants

346
00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 7: of the regime that are not yet cowed by getting

347
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,880
Speaker 7: mowed over by major military operations. And the President talks

348
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 7: about this gift, I too sort of smile and wonder

349
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 7: what this possible gift is. But what it sounds to

350
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 7: me like in tradecraft is that you have someone you're

351
00:21:58,280 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 7: talking to, but you need to know are they the

352
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 7: real deal? And if they do something for you that

353
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 7: you can verify is done and is a value. It's

354
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 7: sort of like an earnest deposit on credibility. Then you say, well,

355
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 7: if they can move those resources, they could open.

356
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 8: Up this ceilane or whatever it was the test that

357
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 8: was given.

358
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 7: Then you know you're dealing with a credible counterpart who

359
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 7: has some measure of influence. And it seems like the

360
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 7: President is feeling his way across the stream, stepping rock

361
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 7: by rock in doing that, and so people might not

362
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,879
Speaker 7: like it. People might want instant answers. I deeply, deeply

363
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 7: doubt the instant information is durable and useful information, and.

364
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 8: I think that's necessary under the current circumstances.

365
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 2: Now, this idea that all warfare is deception, right, that's

366
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 2: unsue of the art of war.

367
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 4: This infuriates the American people because.

368
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,199
Speaker 2: What we want is information. What we want is answers.

369
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 4: I can go to my.

370
00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:00,919
Speaker 2: Phone, I can turn on any part of the internet

371
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 2: anywhere if you will, and I can get.

372
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 4: Intant information, but I don't have information here.

373
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 2: And how the political left and how the media looks

374
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 2: at this and shares this is we're being lied to.

375
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 4: We had cenator Chris Van Holland.

376
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 2: We're being lied to about this, lied to about the other,

377
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 2: live to about he's talking to you, lied to about

378
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 2: the thing which I considering it's giving aid and comfort

379
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 2: to the enemy. How standard is this throughout our history

380
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 2: regarding what the American people are told and what is well?

381
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 7: I mean, if you go deeper and just talk about

382
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 7: Western civilization, it goes back thousands of years. And if

383
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 7: we were talking with Victor Davis Hanson number one, it

384
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 7: would be a very long conversation, but it would also

385
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 7: be very well researched on what was going on in

386
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 7: those ancient cultures with exactly tradecraft, in use of power

387
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 7: and in warfare and political warfare, deception, manipulation, all these

388
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 7: things are very very important parts of comprehensive warfare.

389
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:56,959
Speaker 8: And it's the way our enemies operate.

390
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 7: It's the way that Chinese Communist Party operates, It's the

391
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 7: way the Islamist regimes operate.

392
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,119
Speaker 8: They use all of these tools. I want to stop

393
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 8: you that from terms, if you're gambling.

394
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 2: I want to stop you there for a second because

395
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 2: you said something that I don't think people comprehend, and

396
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 2: I want a little more understanding.

397
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 4: Of they operate.

398
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 2: This way you brought up the communist Chinese Party and

399
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 2: brought up into the Islamist How do they operate? And

400
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 2: when you say they operate this way, who are you

401
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,320
Speaker 2: comparing them to the United States or other forces that

402
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 2: we have fought before?

403
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 7: Right, Well, I would say when you're talking about the

404
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,439
Speaker 7: Chinese Communist Party and say the Islamist regime that's in Iran.

405
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 7: The Islamists that we have faced before and after nine

406
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 7: to eleven, they don't really fuss about about is what

407
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,639
Speaker 7: they're broadcasting true.

408
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 8: They only look at is it useful? Is it moving

409
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 8: or manipulating a target? Is it dividing an enemy?

410
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 7: And if I can divide and distract my enemy, then

411
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 7: I have a net advantage without having.

412
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 8: Had the fought fire a shot.

413
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:06,679
Speaker 7: So they use comprehensive tools, whether it's economic influence and coercion,

414
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 7: information influence and coercion, and then also have the use

415
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 7: of force, whether it is it's civilian in addition to

416
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 7: military targets.

417
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 8: We however, try.

418
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 7: To be better and I admire that impulse and it's

419
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 7: a good impulse.

420
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 8: It's part of our checks and balances. But especially since the.

421
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,919
Speaker 7: Vietnam era, we have tried to conduct warfare and ways

422
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 7: that are constraining so that we will limit the kind

423
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 7: of public statements that our leaders put out because we

424
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 7: don't want them deceiving us, and we shouldn't want them

425
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 7: to deceive us. But the problem is when you live

426
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 7: in globalize and instant information, you don't speak to only

427
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 7: one audience. So consider this like playing poker and I

428
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 7: get to hold my cards close to the chest, but

429
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 7: yours have to be faced up on the table because

430
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 7: you've chosen to live in a free and open society.

431
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 7: Free and open society is good, but it's also very

432
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 7: very vulnerable to manipulation and attack, and at a time

433
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 7: of crisis, you at least have to be aware of

434
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 7: that and try to figure are their options that can

435
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 7: make us less vulnerable, and are there ways to make

436
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 7: them less cloaked and have to.

437
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 8: Show some of their cards.

438
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 7: And that's where some of the tools we're using in

439
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 7: this campaign come back into that category of making a headfake,

440
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 7: maybe giving out different information to try to draw them

441
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 7: off guard, and having them in negotiations. At the same time,

442
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 7: we don't believe them and we might just as well

443
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 7: hit them.

444
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,159
Speaker 2: Talking to Steve Yates, Senior Research trail for China and

445
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 2: National Security policy at the Heritage Foundation Heritage dot org.

446
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 4: So we can't be sure that anybody's being spoken to.

447
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 2: We had all the conversation about President Trump, if you

448
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 2: don't come to the table in two days, we're going

449
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 2: to hit all the power plants, and then saying all right,

450
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,479
Speaker 2: we'll give it a five day reprieve. But he had

451
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 2: never hit a power plant, So who knows how what

452
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 2: that was. But I hear the political left telling me

453
00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 2: that this would be a war crime. It is this

454
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 2: constant going at President Trump. Is this a Trump phenomenon

455
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 2: or is there always been a bit of oh, the

456
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 2: administration's lying to you. I mean, I'm asking you more

457
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 2: of a political question. I am maybe a historical question here,

458
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 2: But this seems, even in a world of the left

459
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,439
Speaker 2: hating Donald Trump, very new and very much to me, and.

460
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 4: Aid and comfort to the enemy, conversation.

461
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,480
Speaker 8: Well, it is all of those things.

462
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,679
Speaker 7: And I remember twenty plus years ago being in the

463
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 7: White House and being subjected to all all of these

464
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 7: kinds of things back in that day, At that time,

465
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,120
Speaker 7: George W. Bush wasn't seen as a warm and cuddly

466
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:44,000
Speaker 7: man of August stature. And kind of compassionate conservatism.

467
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 8: That was the brand. He was called Hitler.

468
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 7: All kinds of accusations of war crimes were thrown at

469
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 7: him and everyone who worked for him. In national security.

470
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 7: It's on steroids with Trump, for sure. And the oddity

471
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 7: of it is that Donald Trump is doing things that

472
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,199
Speaker 7: should actually be in alignment with what a lot of

473
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 7: these forces would want.

474
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:04,400
Speaker 8: He is trying to avoid.

475
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 7: Destruction of the civilian infrastructure, trying to avoid civilian casualties.

476
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 7: And if you get the scope of these major military operations,

477
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 7: number one, they're amazing in terms of their lethality and

478
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 7: effectiveness militarily, but also they're pretty amazing in avoiding mass

479
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 7: civilian casualties while hitting a wide geography that's actually pretty cautious.

480
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 8: And then his willingness to pull back and talk.

481
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 7: With people that other people would refuse to talk to

482
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 7: that opens up a chance for de escalation that others

483
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 7: would have rejected. So in a lot of ways, he's

484
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 7: much more careful and pragmatic than any of his critics

485
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 7: would ever give him credit for.

486
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 2: When we talk about the pulling back, and this is

487
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 2: where I become concerned that it's possible that I have

488
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 2: a different objective than the president. My objective is to

489
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 2: end the regime so there is no more terrorist threat

490
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 2: of any kind that includes nuclear threat. It's an all

491
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,959
Speaker 2: encompassing conversation. But no more funding of Hesbel and Juma's,

492
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 2: no more funding of the Huti Rebels, no more or

493
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 2: funding of cells that could be right here in the

494
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 2: United States and other places. It's overdone and complete. And yes,

495
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 2: you allow the Iranian people, these Persians to go about

496
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 2: living their lives and creating their life.

497
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 4: For President Trump, he sees the world differently.

498
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 9: Right.

499
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 2: It is for me what I coined years ago is

500
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 2: these are the two rules of trump Ism. The first

501
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 2: rule of trump Ism is Trump wins. And the second

502
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 2: rule of trump Ism is that a deal can always

503
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 2: be made as long as it adheres to the first

504
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 2: rule of trump Ism, which gives me pause. It gives

505
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 2: me real concern. As you see it, your conversations, your insight,

506
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 2: what do you think the president's real goal is?

507
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 7: Well, first, I would say that I agreed completely with

508
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 7: the Tony Katz theory of the universe as you've just

509
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 7: described it, and the theory of how the president operates.

510
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 8: Of course, he's more complex than that.

511
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 7: When we use these simplistic distillations to try to understand

512
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 7: and make points, and those are valid, and there's more

513
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 7: to what he's doing than just those things. But broadly speaking,

514
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 7: what you described is exactly why people get concerned, nervous,

515
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 7: why they wonder whether they're getting complete information. Some people

516
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 7: pathologically unwilling to accept the information they're given. But we

517
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 7: have to have to try to step back, and that's

518
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 7: the hardest thing in the world to do, because we

519
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 7: are addicted to instant information and belief that we have

520
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 7: instant knowledge and reality. When these are evolving situations, and

521
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 7: President Trump likes to operate in shifting sands sands, he

522
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 7: might have made shift.

523
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 8: That's where he finds his deals, that's where he finds

524
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 8: his leverage.

525
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 7: But ultimately he is changing the tectonic plates the world.

526
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 8: Is moving around on.

527
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 7: And so when I get concerned about it, at least

528
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 7: I just remind myself. Broadly speaking, the Middle East has

529
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 7: never been in a better position to have a more

530
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 7: stable next decade or two than since the Abraham Accords

531
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 7: and whatever comes out of this.

532
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 2: Yes, and I agree that the Abraham Accords is the

533
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 2: start of everything.

534
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 4: It can all be brought.

535
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 2: Back to that Steve Yates from the Heritage Foundation before

536
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 2: I Let you Go. Is there a consideration from Trump?

537
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 2: The War Powers Act, the price of oil? Do these

538
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 2: things move him to wanting to wrap things up more

539
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 2: than the idea of the regimes.

540
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 7: And I don't think President Trump needed any motivation to

541
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 7: try to want to want to wrap things up. It

542
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 7: has been his impulse, his DNA for four plus decades,

543
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 7: and he's been on television talking about it forever. And

544
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 7: so the idea that he would ever put himself at

545
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 7: risk of being in a forever war, as we like

546
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 7: to call them, is basically zero. And so we're in

547
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 7: a period where we've been going for a month. We

548
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 7: don't see clearly exactly how this land. But I don't

549
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 7: think it's the War Powers Act, and I don't which

550
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 7: gives sixty to ninety days slack, so we're still well

551
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 7: within that. And I don't think it's sort of the

552
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 7: concern of the markets, although he's really sensitive to markets.

553
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 7: And so that's why I believe some kind of a

554
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 7: deal and a de escalation is coming in the next

555
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 7: week or two, or a major major hit is coming

556
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 7: in the next week or two, and no matter what

557
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 7: happens when we deescalate Israel and our Arab allies and

558
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 7: perhaps others, they're going to be mowing the lawn in

559
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 7: this region while we're there to come in as needed

560
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 7: going forward. But I don't expect America to be the

561
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 7: everyday maintenance crew for this region.

562
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 4: I've never heard the term in warfare mowing the lawn.

563
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 2: That's going to get used right there, Steve Yates follow

564
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 2: my Twitter X Steve Yates y A t E.

565
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 4: S from the Heritage Foundation.

566
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 2: I appreciate you being here, sir. More is coming up.

567
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 4: I'm Tony Katz.

568
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 2: So as you know, ICE, Immigration Customs Enforcement, they showed

569
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 2: up at the airports, they got the crowds moving.

570
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 4: You went from have lines of four.

571
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 2: Hours, five hours plus two lines that.

572
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 4: Disappeared, Tony Kats, Tony Kats today, good to be with you.

573
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 2: And at CNN it was like, well maybe it was

574
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 2: just a slower travel day.

575
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 4: That's that's insane. But it's so CNN and people are

576
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 4: angry about it.

577
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 2: The left is outraged that we would use ICE in

578
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 2: this way. Meanwhile, people are talking ICE saying thank you,

579
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 2: and what is ICE doing.

580
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 4: ICE officers.

581
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 2: Are handing out bottles of water. Huh. I know a

582
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 2: guy he's on the radio.

583
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 4: From what I'm told, incredibly handsome guy.

584
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 2: He is the kind of guy that you look at

585
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 2: and you're like, I want to carry that guy's babies.

586
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 4: And that's the men. And he said on radio, you

587
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 4: know what Republicans should do.

588
00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 2: Republicans they should they should grab bottles of water, then

589
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,319
Speaker 2: food and go to airports in their estates where there

590
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 2: are the little lines are two hours, three hours, four

591
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 2: hours long, and they should hand out the water and

592
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 2: hand out the sandwiches and say, hey, sorry, Democrats are

593
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 2: doing this to you. We've been voting to fund DHS.

594
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 2: They won't do it. It's just so ridiculous and now you

595
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 2: have to suffer. And I'm so sorry for that, but

596
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 2: I just want to make a little bit easier. We're

597
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 2: trying our best. Please, please please call your center, call

598
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 2: Democrats to tell them to stop this madness. They didn't

599
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 2: do it. Ridiculous. If you ask me, ice is handing

600
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,600
Speaker 2: out bottles of water. And the question asked, well, where'd

601
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:57,879
Speaker 2: they get the water? I don't know, the store. This

602
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 2: is the waste of money. We got billions of dollars

603
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 2: being spent to medicaid fraud. But it was a couple

604
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:08,320
Speaker 2: of bottles of water from Costco that broke the camel's back. Gotcha.

605
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 2: Republicans missed a moment. They should have been doing this.

606
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,799
Speaker 2: They should have been talking to people. They should have

607
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:22,359
Speaker 2: been hands on to show America how hands off the

608
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 2: reality and the dangers and the problems that.

609
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 4: They're creating for America. Democrats are.

610
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 2: This is what we said. Somebody listened, just not the

611
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 2: right group. I'm Tony Katz.

612
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 1: Line from Vall Hartland and the Crossroads of America. It's

613
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:50,839
Speaker 1: Tony Katz today, So getting ready for.

614
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 2: The White House briefing between the war, between what's going

615
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,240
Speaker 2: on with Department Phone Land security and lack of funding

616
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 2: because Democrats like long lines unhappy Americans because they think

617
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 2: it'll give them power. Hey, I don't want them to

618
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 2: be like this. But here we are Tony Katz, Tony

619
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:08,320

Speaker 2: Oh I should have been here earlier, So wait on

626
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 2: the White House briefing. I will bring that to you

627
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 2: when it happens. But there's a story at a news

628
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:36,400
Speaker 2: nation about investigations going on, and we're not just talking

629
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:43,760
Speaker 2: about the congressional investigation into, for example, the hospices. What

630
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 2: has been uncovered in California regarding the amount of hospice

631
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,839
Speaker 2: centers and sites and companies in Los Angeles. You would

632
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 2: think that everybody is dying in Los Angeles, dying to

633
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 2: be famous joke. And you see that there's just no

634
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 2: way that these companies can be billing as much as

635
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 2: they are and serving anybody. They're not serving anybody, and

636
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 2: no one's there. And people like Nick Shirley make the

637
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 2: videos and these shows up and no one's there.

638
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 4: No one is there.

639
00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:30,280
Speaker 2: So with that you realize that there is a massive

640
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 2: shell game going on, just like what we saw in Minneapolis.

641
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 2: Important to note we don't know of of all the

642
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 2: people involved in this hospice racket.

643
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:49,359
Speaker 4: That's exactly what it is. It's a hospice racket, right, but.

644
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 2: Doesn't seem to be at the first bit of reporting

645
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 2: that they are Somali nationals. I think there is a

646
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 2: real reason to look at those you're letting into the

647
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 2: country and whether or not they want to be Americans

648
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 2: and live the American way of life, or whether or

649
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 2: not their culture is compatible to Western civilization. If you

650
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:14,880
Speaker 2: tell me that's not important, if you tell me that

651
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 2: that's bigoted, I will tell those people to poundstands. I

652
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 2: think it's outrageously important to maintain American safety and security.

653
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 2: But the idea that only from people from Somalia would

654
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 2: engage in fraud, well that was always a nutter of

655
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 2: an idea. There are plenty of people who have nothing

656
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 2: who are not Somali who are involved in the fraud,

657
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 2: waste and abuse in Minneapolis. There just seems to be

658
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 2: a tremendous percentage of people who are from Somalia or

659
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:48,280
Speaker 2: are Somalian descent who were involved in this. Two things

660
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 2: can be true at the exact same time. The facts

661
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,760
Speaker 2: in the data tell a story. If facts in data

662
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 2: to some people are racist, well though some people should

663
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 2: not be considered when having this conversation. I have no

664
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:13,359
Speaker 2: idea who's involved yet with this fraud. What is it

665
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 2: that the government of California knew and when did they

666
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 2: know it? And it could be possible that while Gavin

667
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 2: Newsom is a low individual, he may not be Tim

668
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:30,839
Speaker 2: wallslow because as is reported, at least reported, we may

669
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:36,640
Speaker 2: find out more information. The Newsom administration made a move

670
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 2: on the issue of fraud. Back in twenty twenty one.

671
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom signed legislation placing a moratorium on new hospice licenses,

672
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:50,400
Speaker 2: preventing bad actors from entering the system while strengthening oversight

673
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 2: of existing providers. And you can look at that and say, oh, well,

674
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:55,800
Speaker 2: isn't that nice.

675
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 4: To see from a Democrat? But twenty twenty one, something

676
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 4: else going on?

677
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 2: What was it? What else was going on in twenty

678
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 2: twenty one? I was thinking about my OnlyFans career. No, no, no,

679
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,920
Speaker 2: that was twenty twenty three. What was it that was

680
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 2: happening in twenty twenty one?

681
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:20,280
Speaker 4: That's right, COVID.

682
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 2: Were we going to find that the Newsome administration is

683
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 2: making a claim to something that isn't connected to what.

684
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 4: It is they did that they actually did.

685
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 2: Put a moratorium on things because of what COVID did,

686
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:35,840
Speaker 2: because of these other things.

687
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 4: I don't know. I guess some bit of investigation is going.

688
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:44,959
Speaker 2: To find that out. But when we find out when

689
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 2: we find out that, just like we did in Minneapolis,

690
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 2: that you had these reports given the recognition that there

691
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 2: was fraud. Hey there's a problem. Hey, Hey this is happening. Hey,

692
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,359
Speaker 2: that's happening. Hey, this is an issue. Hey you gotta

693
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 2: do something about this. Hey, we're reporting this.

694
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 4: And the.

695
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 2: Government folk there in Minneapolis and Minnesota did nothing because

696
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 2: they could take the report, but they didn't have anything

697
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,319
Speaker 2: to do with the report, and that was purposeful. Their

698
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,319
Speaker 2: system did not allow them to follow through on when

699
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 2: hearing about an allegation of fraud because the system wasn't

700
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 2: meant to do that. It didn't care if there was

701
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 2: fraud as long as you were writing checks. Well, look,

702
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 2: how good we are. Remember a great difference between the

703
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:41,800
Speaker 2: political right and the political left. The political right views

704
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:45,160
Speaker 2: the success of a program by how many people don't

705
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:48,760
Speaker 2: need it. The left views the success of a program

706
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 2: as how many people are on it. Said differently, the

707
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 2: left views it as how many people use it, and

708
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:55,880
Speaker 2: the right views it as how many people are off

709
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 2: of it.

710
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:57,760
Speaker 4: That's the difference.

711
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 2: That is a very concrete example of a difference between

712
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 2: the political rights and the political left. And there are differences.

713
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 2: Don't tell me about the uniparty nonsense. There are some

714
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 2: things where they are in tandem to the stupidity.

715
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 4: We can agree to such things. I bring this up.

716
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 2: Because the FBI and the IRS are now collaborating to

717
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:35,399
Speaker 2: take a look at funding of domestic terrorism efforts. And

718
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 2: we know that in the issue with Minnesota and smalling

719
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:43,280
Speaker 2: nationals was that money was going back, as City Journal

720
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:51,359
Speaker 2: reported it, to al Shabab, a terrorist organization. So now

721
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,160
Speaker 2: it's a look at what are we setting up in

722
00:42:54,239 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 2: terms of charity, and it's going to Pam Bondi is

723
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 2: saying that part of this would be to root out

724
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:09,359
Speaker 2: all culpable culprits of culpable participants, including organizers and funders

725
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 2: in all domestic terrorism activities, rooting out the fraud, rooting

726
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 2: out the support of terrorism with our dollars. That's that's fantastic,

727
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 2: That's what we should be doing.

728
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:32,760
Speaker 4: That's excellent news.

729
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:37,400
Speaker 2: Is there anybody out there who's going to say that

730
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,439
Speaker 2: it's terrible news, that this is a bad idea. Why

731
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 2: are we doing this? The answer is you better believe it.

732
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 2: There will absolutely be people who think that this is bad.

733
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 2: When Trump said drain the swamp, I looked at it

734
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,919
Speaker 2: like I look at many things and said, Okay, nice

735
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,359
Speaker 2: bit of sloganeering, make America great again. Nice bit of sloganeering.

736
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 2: Make America great again? Is the same thing as hope

737
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:09,120
Speaker 2: and change. It's the same exact thing, which is to

738
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 2: say hope and change. And the reason it works so

739
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,480
Speaker 2: well is that it could mean anything you wanted to

740
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 2: mean anything. What do you hope for? What do you

741
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:28,239
Speaker 2: want to change? Touta make America great again? What do

742
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 2: you want to be great? What does it mean to

743
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 2: be great? Something different for everyone? Simple. I think that

744
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 2: the need for these investigations, the need for searching in this,

745
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 2: the need for digging in on this. If there isn't

746
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:54,319
Speaker 2: a moment of agreement on these kinds of things, then

747
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 2: what is there actually a moment of agreement on it?

748
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 2: We can't agree on the eye idea that we don't

749
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 2: want billions of dollars going to terrorist organizations in name

750
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:13,280
Speaker 2: the African nation or to domestic terrorists. Maybe the problem

751
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 2: is we have a political party that wanted to refer

752
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 2: to American citizens as the terrorists.

753
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 4: Where is that story? Did you send it to me?

754
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 2: What traduction to land or was it here?

755
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 4: It is it is from zero Hedge.

756
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:40,839
Speaker 2: Biden era intel assessment targeted white moms and homemakers as

757
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 2: potential domestic terrorists. This a twenty twenty one intelligence assessment

758
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 2: titled women advancing white, racially and ethnically motivated bolent extremism,

759
00:45:54,360 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 2: extremist radicalization and recruitment. Oh you're a suburban white woman

760
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 2: for Trump terrorists. Oh you are going to a school

761
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:13,799
Speaker 2: board meeting terrorist. That's that's who they are. That's who

762
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:18,120
Speaker 2: the left is. Do they focus on the things that

763
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:21,239
Speaker 2: matter most to us or do they focus on preventing

764
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,560
Speaker 2: others from speaking so they can.

765
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 4: Go about winning elections.

766
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 2: When Trump said dre in the swamp, I took it

767
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:34,440
Speaker 2: as just a statement of Okay, that's.

768
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 4: A that's a disaligne.

769
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:40,799
Speaker 2: It's just one of those things knowing that there was

770
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 2: a swamp, but not actually knowing exactly how ugly it

771
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 2: all is, and it is all outrageously ugly. Getting rid

772
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 2: of fraud, getting rid of the abuse of the system,

773
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 2: getting rid of those people in these agencies who want

774
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,239
Speaker 2: to look at moms who happen to be conservative and say, well,

775
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 2: we label you a terrorist, so we saw you.

776
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's all good stuff.

777
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,760
Speaker 2: And I would remind President Trump that even with everything

778
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:12,680
Speaker 2: else going on, these are the things that are lasting things.

779
00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,440
Speaker 2: Removing these people from the Intel community, removing these people

780
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 2: from the State Department, removing any of these agencies or

781
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 2: sub agencies or outlets or groups that utilize our dollars

782
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 2: against us and message against us, and rooting out the

783
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:31,560
Speaker 2: fraud and the fraudsters, and throwing the American citizens in

784
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:35,520
Speaker 2: jail who are guilty, and deporting those who aren't American citizens.

785
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,280
Speaker 2: And then we should punish the countries who sent them,

786
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:42,919
Speaker 2: you know, as a lesson. Waiting on the White House

787

790
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 2: These are things that should be headlines, but because with

791
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 2: everything going on, they may not be headlines, just may.

792
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:03,560
Speaker 4: Not get there. Oh, there it is. There's my story.

793
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,600
Speaker 4: Let's start with the Seattle Seahawks.

794
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:12,680
Speaker 2: And you're saying to me, Tony, what why Washington state

795
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 2: tax free state? There's no income tax in Washington. This

796
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 2: changes because leftists ruin everything.

797
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 4: You've already had. Howard Schultz Starbucks leave.

798
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:34,360
Speaker 2: Now they've decided to approve a millionaire tax, because why

799
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 2: not take your time and your energies and tax people

800
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:48,439
Speaker 2: just because you can, you know, for the lulls, As

801
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 2: the kids would say, why not. That's what they did

802
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:58,000
Speaker 2: in Washington State, a nine rate applying to everybody earning

803
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 2: more than a million dollars annually. And the governor, Bob

804
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:05,480
Speaker 2: Ferguson is like, I'm gonna sign that. But the general

805
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:10,239
Speaker 2: manager of the Seattle Seahawks is like, yeah, about that.

806
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 2: About that. We're trying to keep a winning football team

807
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:22,960
Speaker 2: here and we're trying to do our best to sign

808
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:23,880
Speaker 2: good players.

809
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:28,920
Speaker 4: And if you have this facocta.

810
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:34,120
Speaker 2: Stupid tax, it's gonna make our life very difficult because

811
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:40,560
Speaker 2: people are not gonna wanna play here. They've been utilizing that,

812
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 2: Hey we're tax free for years, and now people are like, well,

813
00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 2: you're not gonna be able to do that anymore. They're

814
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:51,800
Speaker 2: gonna have to pay more to get players. It's gonna

815
00:49:51,880 --> 00:50:02,920
Speaker 2: hurt them financially. So I have recently deemed myself although

816
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,520
Speaker 2: I have asked, and this is a true story, I

817
00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,480
Speaker 2: have asked. I said, I want to be named in

818
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:10,920
Speaker 2: my state Indiana, although I'm willing to do it for

819
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 2: the Midwest. If other governors would like to name me,

820
00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 2: If Governor Stanton, Oklahoma, where we're on KRMG would like

821
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:21,280
Speaker 2: to name name me the ambassador to bring in business

822
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:24,440
Speaker 2: from loser states. Originally I wanted to be named the

823
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 2: Indiana Ambassador to New York for grabbing business from normal people.

824
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 2: All right, I'm gonna need a better name, but go

825
00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:33,799
Speaker 2: with me on this. I go to New York, I

826
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 2: walk into businesses and I say, seriously, what's wrong with

827
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 2: you all? What are you doing here? Stop being in

828
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:45,680
Speaker 2: New York? This place is stupid. But the bagels, Tony,

829
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,319
Speaker 2: would you shut it? You can ship the bagels in

830
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:55,560
Speaker 2: until they're all gone. Come to my Indiana and actually

831
00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:58,799
Speaker 2: be in a place where there's a workforce, where there

832
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:03,120
Speaker 2: are decent people, where the housing is inexpensive, and most importantly,

833
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 2: you can keep your money.

834
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 4: Come on, that's my pitch, that's my whole pitch.

835
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 2: And I want to be the ambassador. And now I

836
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 2: mentioned a Governor stint or On in in Detroit, bad

837
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,840
Speaker 2: that's not gonna happen. We're on in Illinois, but that's Pretzker. Sorry,

838
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:24,320
Speaker 2: Peoria that's not gonna happen. We're on in Saint Louis.

839
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 2: I don't even know who the governor is in Missouri.

840
00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 2: Who's the governor of Missouri. Maybe we can make that

841
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,280
Speaker 2: happen in Missouri. We're on a couple other places.

842
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:32,280
Speaker 4: We're on in North.

843
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,919
Speaker 2: Carolina on WBT, but that is not gonna happen right now.

844
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 2: So right now it's just Indiana and Oklahoma.

845
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:39,080
Speaker 4: Boy has got a start where he starts.

846
00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:44,400
Speaker 2: I think you already have Indiana trying to get the

847
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,840
Speaker 2: Chicago Bears to come to Indiana, which is a no

848
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:57,080
Speaker 2: freaking brainer. It's a no brainer. You have Chicago, which

849
00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 2: just passed they're putting in place a new hospitality tax

850
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 2: to attract more tourists. So what are they doing. They're

851
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:09,279
Speaker 2: raising the taxes on a hotel room from seventeen and

852
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 2: a half percent to nineteen percent, and they think they're

853
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 2: gonna get more tourism that way. Well, why would you

854
00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,800
Speaker 2: ever go to Chicago for an event. You're insane to

855
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:28,239
Speaker 2: go to Illinois for an event. Come to Indiana, Come

856
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:32,320
Speaker 2: to Oklahoma, Come to North Carolina, all right, the governor,

857
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:36,960
Speaker 2: but everything else. Come to North Carolina. There are places

858
00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:42,200
Speaker 2: you can go. So the Bears are discussing the possibility

859
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:47,040
Speaker 2: of moving the team to northwest Indiana, a town called Hammond, where.

860
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,440
Speaker 4: This amazing opportunity is and can be built.

861
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 2: And some people, because it's Hammond, want the Bears to

862
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:54,799
Speaker 2: change their name from the Bears to the Eggs so

863
00:52:54,840 --> 00:53:00,000
Speaker 2: they could be called the Hammond Eggs.

864
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:04,840
Speaker 4: Okay, Chicago Bears it is. But why just the Bears.

865
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,200
Speaker 2: The Cubs, the White Sox, the black Hawks, the Bulls

866
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:10,880
Speaker 2: come to Indiana? What are you doing?

867
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:13,280
Speaker 4: What are you doing?

868
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:17,080
Speaker 2: By the way, Oklahoma, they've got the Okay see Thunder,

869
00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:19,720
Speaker 2: Maybe they'd like another pro team. What are you doing

870
00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:23,440
Speaker 2: staying in a state that hates you? So to the

871
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 2: Seattle Seahawks, what are you doing? What?

872
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 10: Hi?

873
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:34,160
Speaker 2: My name's Tony Katz from the Great state of Indiana.

874
00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:37,359
Speaker 2: How can we help you? We're gonna be We're gonna

875
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:42,040
Speaker 2: be six million people. We're gonna have fourteen professional teams.

876
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,879
Speaker 2: That's what it's gonna be. And by the way, there's

877
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 2: a lot of issues with building out stadiums and giveaways

878
00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:52,799
Speaker 2: and stuff like that. I think that the system that

879
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,719
Speaker 2: we how we've gone about doing this with the Bears

880
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:57,840
Speaker 2: is really interesting. Because the Bears have real skin in

881
00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:01,239
Speaker 2: the game. Not perfect, but much better than I thought

882
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:01,680
Speaker 2: it would be.

883
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:03,560
Speaker 4: The Seahawk should move.

884
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:13,319
Speaker 2: And then there is Jennifer Welch, the podcaster, the new

885
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 2: face of the Democrats. She's the Democrats Joe Rogan.

886
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:17,279
Speaker 4: Don't you know?

887
00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 2: And she's there on the MS now Freak Show. I

888
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:26,920
Speaker 2: don't know when this was, but I guess people missed

889
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,560
Speaker 2: this her saying this about jd Vance.

890
00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:33,400
Speaker 11: He is married to a woman of Indian descent. He

891
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,919
Speaker 11: has mixed race children. So to all of the MAGA

892
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,879
Speaker 11: voters out there, if this man will not defend his

893
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:44,439
Speaker 11: wife and will not defend his kids, do you think he.

894
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,440
Speaker 2: Gives a crap about you or anything to do with you.

895
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:54,600
Speaker 2: What is she talking about defending his wife, defending his kids?

896
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:57,320
Speaker 4: You think because he's.

897
00:54:57,160 --> 00:55:02,319
Speaker 2: Married to a woman who's Indian, he doesn't He's not

898
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 2: going to protect his kids. He doesn't love his kids.

899
00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:10,200
Speaker 2: Is this not the official Democrat party position? Just say

900
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:14,400
Speaker 2: anything the anterest Yes, that is their position. That's the

901
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:18,319
Speaker 2: Gennifer Waltz position. I'm Tony Katz, get ready for the

902
00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:24,240
Speaker 2: White House Press briefing. Tony Katz. Tony Katz today getting

903
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:28,240
Speaker 2: ready for the White House Press briefing Tony Katz, Tony

904
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:31,279
Speaker 2: Katz today, good to be here, Good to be with you.

905
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,839
Speaker 2: Before we do, though, I think it's only fair that

906
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:41,400
Speaker 2: I torture you with the most terrific thing that Senator

907
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:43,479
Speaker 2: Corey Booker of New Jersey may have ever said.

908
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:48,200
Speaker 12: Prat that arguably got the most attention in the past

909
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:50,640
Speaker 12: year since Donald Trump has been back in office. Is

910
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:54,879
Speaker 12: California Governor Gavin Newsom. And in many ways he's doing

911
00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:58,160
Speaker 12: the opposite of what you are saying. He is on

912
00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:02,840
Speaker 12: social media mimicking President Trump's style. He is trying to

913
00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:07,239
Speaker 12: fight President Trump the way President Trump fights Democrats.

914
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:10,200
Speaker 4: So Gavin and I are longtime friends.

915
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:15,839
Speaker 13: When we were both at mayoral level, and I told him,

916
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:18,040
Speaker 13: I said, brother, we got a romance because when you

917
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:22,320
Speaker 13: stood up for gay and lesbian couples and married them

918
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:25,200
Speaker 13: against the law, and the whole Democratic Party was saying,

919
00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:27,839
Speaker 13: you're ruining our coming election, because that was when Bush

920
00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:29,400
Speaker 13: was trying to put it on ballots.

921
00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:31,520
Speaker 5: Every day, blamed him for John Carey losing.

922
00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:33,759
Speaker 13: Yes, But yet he stood up for what we now

923
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:35,080
Speaker 13: know looking back was right.

924
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:46,320
Speaker 2: Did he just say romance with Cavinism? You know, people

925
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 2: wonder if the Democrats have a masculinity problem.

926
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:53,840
Speaker 4: What wonder?

927
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:54,279
Speaker 2: No more?

928
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:57,160
Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure.

929
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:03,560
Speaker 2: Good do they hear themselves when they talk?

930
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:09,880
Speaker 4: Do they hear what it is that they say?

931
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:14,000
Speaker 2: Now, there is plenty of news and I have much

932
00:57:14,040 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 2: more to get to. But let me get to two

933
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:22,520
Speaker 2: things as we're waiting on the briefing. First, there has

934
00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 2: now been a vote of no confidence against the sheriff

935
00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:34,080
Speaker 2: in Pma County, Arizona, unanimous vote of no confidence.

936
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 4: They're like, wait a second, how do I know this guy?

937
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:41,320
Speaker 2: This is the sheriff investigating the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie,

938
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:46,960
Speaker 2: the mother of today's show host Savannah Guthrie. This is

939
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:50,960
Speaker 2: so weird, the idea that she just up and disappeared

940
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:53,480
Speaker 2: and no one can find no trace. No this know

941
00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:57,680
Speaker 2: that I accept it at the beginning that maybe they're

942
00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 2: not telling us everything. Again, the concept of miss direction.

943
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,040
Speaker 2: Maybe they were trying to act aloof and maybe lure

944
00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 2: some people or you know, into a into a false

945
00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:07,920
Speaker 2: sense of security. All these kinds of things are possible.

946
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:11,320
Speaker 4: Did they really screw this up?

947
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:13,400
Speaker 2: Because you are left with.

948
00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:18,280
Speaker 4: The overwhelming belief that they screwed this up.

949
00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 2: And now you've got the vote of no confidence and

950
00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:30,800
Speaker 2: he won't he won't resign, he won't go. Well, I

951
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 2: think I think that's going to be a hard thing

952
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:43,959
Speaker 2: to overcome. That if it's a unanimous vote, you don't

953
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:50,280
Speaker 2: have the confidence of the people you're leading, you have

954
00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:55,320
Speaker 2: to leave. And I'll tell you I mean. And then, oh,

955
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:59,000
Speaker 2: did you hear that? They did an interview over the

956
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 2: Today Show with Vna guth three to first. It's our

957
00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:06,800
Speaker 2: first interview and it's gonna play over the next couple days.

958
00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:09,000
Speaker 2: And I said, listen, I'm a morning show host as well.

959
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:10,840
Speaker 2: You guys know I do a morning show in Indianapolis.

960
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:15,680
Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, if that's airing, No, no, nobody's listening.

961
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:16,680
Speaker 4: They're going to watch that.

962
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:19,400
Speaker 2: It is going to be the most watched thing of

963
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:23,760
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six. Savannah Guthrie telling us what she knows

964
00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:25,760
Speaker 2: and now she feels about her missing mother in one

965
00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:29,600
Speaker 2: of the most national stories out there. It blows my

966
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 2: mind that they can't find her. I find it frightening

967
00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 2: that they can't find her. And I do think that

968
00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:42,440
Speaker 2: the sheriff a voter no confidence is okay, you have

969
00:59:42,480 --> 00:59:44,840
Speaker 2: to go. Now this doesn't mean somebody new is going

970
00:59:44,880 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 2: to find her. It doesn't even necessarily mean that the

971
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,160
Speaker 2: investigation is as awful as I may think it is.

972
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:54,200
Speaker 2: Remember I'm not on the inside. But it tells a

973
00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:56,560
Speaker 2: story that people are supposed to have some level of shame.

974
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:02,439
Speaker 2: This brings us to the story about Chris. You think

975
01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:04,959
Speaker 2: this story is just nonsense, I'm telling you this story

976
01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:10,160
Speaker 2: matters quite a bit. Now. In this story, I'm about

977
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:12,760
Speaker 2: to say some very very mean things about a restaurant

978
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:17,360
Speaker 2: called Chili's. And you say to me, Tony, you have

979
01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:19,600
Speaker 2: really are you not aware of what's going on in

980
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 2: the world? Would you trust me on this just for

981
01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:29,360
Speaker 2: a moment. Thank you? Ruth Chris put out a statement.

982
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:36,560
Speaker 2: The statement that Ruth Chris put out was that it

983
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:39,320
Speaker 2: has a new dress code. Talked about it here on

984
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:43,760
Speaker 2: the show Business casual for customers to wear proper tire,

985
01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:47,800
Speaker 2: with diners who don't comply being regulated relegated to the bar.

986
01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:53,160
Speaker 2: Take off your hat when entering the restaurant. You want

987
01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:57,080
Speaker 2: to wear a ball cap at the bar, or you

988
01:00:57,160 --> 01:00:59,840
Speaker 2: go right ahead. You want to wear it outside, But

989
01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,720
Speaker 2: no gym ware, no pool attire, no tank tops, no

990
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 2: clothing with offensive graphics or language revealing clothing are exposed

991
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:16,480
Speaker 2: undergarments and what did I say? Damn straight Rus Chris,

992
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:21,640

1005
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:05,080
Speaker 2: those guys have a standard and standards are good. All

1006
01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:08,680
Speaker 2: of a sudden, you've got these restaurants, these little silly

1007
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 2: restaurants trying to mock Ruth Chris.

1008
01:02:12,640 --> 01:02:17,200
Speaker 4: There's a backlash. What do you mean there's a backlash?

1009
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,600
Speaker 2: Chilis has decided they're going to get in on this.

1010
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:23,280
Speaker 2: The only dress code at Chili's is that you have

1011
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:26,600
Speaker 2: to be dressed yes, and you also have to wear

1012
01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:28,640
Speaker 2: very loose fitting pants so you can get them down

1013
01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 2: fast enough, because Lord only knows what the baby back

1014
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:35,680
Speaker 2: ribs are going to do to your intestines. Now, full disclosure,

1015
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,000
Speaker 2: I haven't been in a Chilies in twenty years. I

1016
01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:40,600
Speaker 2: have no idea. Maybe the baby back ribs are delicious,

1017
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:44,000
Speaker 2: but we do not mock people for having a standard kitten,

1018
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:50,640
Speaker 2: not now, not ever, No, no ah, hell no. Standards

1019
01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:55,800
Speaker 2: are good and Ruth Chris is right. Ruth Chris is right,

1020
01:02:56,120 --> 01:02:58,840
Speaker 2: Chili's is wrong, Athbes is wrong, And if you want

1021
01:02:58,840 --> 01:03:01,960
Speaker 2: to show up someplace in pajamas, with all due respect,

1022
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:10,040
Speaker 2: my dear friends, you are also wrong, wrong, and ridiculous.

1023
01:03:10,600 --> 01:03:12,800
Speaker 2: We'll get come back. We'll play a little bit of

1024
01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:14,720
Speaker 2: the White House briefing. Keep it here.

1025
01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:16,280
Speaker 4: This is Tony Kats today.

1026
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:18,720
Speaker 2: Caroline Love It ready to come out and give the

1027
01:03:18,760 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 2: White House press briefing.

1028
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,760
Speaker 4: I'll cover as much of it here as I can.

1029
01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:26,720
Speaker 4: For the record, it was scheduled to start forty eight

1030
01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:30,360
Speaker 4: minutes ago, so.

1031
01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:31,040
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1032
01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:32,760
Speaker 4: Maybe some last minute wranglings.

1033
01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:36,480
Speaker 2: We will see. But this right here is Caroline Lovett me.

1034
01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:38,680
Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz and the show is Tony Katz today.

1035
01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:45,440
Speaker 2: Let's listen in. And of course she's making it impossible

1036
01:03:45,440 --> 01:03:48,280
Speaker 2: for me to listen in. Don't worry.

1037
01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 4: I have a plan because I'm good like that.

1038
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:58,360
Speaker 2: Thank you so very much a producer, Landon for having

1039
01:03:58,520 --> 01:03:59,880
Speaker 2: the other stream.

1040
01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:03,960
Speaker 14: Go onj of twenty twenty three, Again, another innocent American

1041
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 14: citizen had her life stolen from her because Democrats embrace

1042
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:13,000
Speaker 14: reckless open border policies and reckless sanctuary city policies which

1043
01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:17,680
Speaker 14: put criminals back into Americans sharing any more Americans have

1044
01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:20,600
Speaker 14: to die before the Democrats end this madness.

1045
01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:23,360
Speaker 5: President Trump's position is very clear.

1046
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:26,480
Speaker 14: He wants the federal government opened, he wants the Department

1047
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:28,800
Speaker 14: of Homeland Security funded, and he wants.

1048
01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:30,960
Speaker 5: The Democrats shut down to end immediately.

1049
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:34,360
Speaker 14: The President will also continue to call on Democrat leaders

1050
01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:38,000
Speaker 14: and sanctuary cities and states like JB. Pritzker where this

1051
01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 14: young beautiful girl was murdered, to cooperate with Ice and

1052
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:46,360
Speaker 14: stop releasing illegal alien criminals into American neighborhoods.

1053
01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:47,920
Speaker 15: It is for the safety of every.

1054
01:04:47,760 --> 01:04:50,720
Speaker 14: American citizen, including all of the people in this room.

1055
01:04:51,040 --> 01:04:52,800
Speaker 14: With that, I will take your questions and here in

1056
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:53,840
Speaker 14: our new media seat today.

1057
01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:55,120
Speaker 4: Wow, that was a quick intro.

1058
01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:57,400
Speaker 8: Thanks Caroline, thanks much for being here.

1059
01:04:57,600 --> 01:04:57,920
Speaker 2: Thank you.

1060
01:04:57,960 --> 01:04:58,960
Speaker 8: Having two questions for you.

1061
01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:01,200
Speaker 4: First off, if the learner around.

1062
01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:03,920
Speaker 16: Continues pass this current round of peace talks and with

1063
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:06,120
Speaker 16: thousands of troops on their way to the Middle East,

1064
01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 16: is there a point either a number of ground troops

1065
01:05:08,880 --> 01:05:11,120
Speaker 16: or a number of days at which the President.

1066
01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:12,439
Speaker 4: Will consider No one's going to answer that question.

1067
01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 14: Well, as you know right now, that formal authorization from

1068
01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,600
Speaker 14: Congress is not necessary because we're currently in major combat

1069
01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:23,120
Speaker 14: operations in Iran. The Department of War and the President,

1070
01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:25,960
Speaker 14: as I said, estimated about a four to six week

1071
01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:29,760
Speaker 14: timeline for the full completion of these military combat operations

1072
01:05:29,800 --> 01:05:34,240
Speaker 14: were again on day twenty five today, and as a courtesy, nevertheless,

1073
01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:37,400
Speaker 14: the administration did notify Congress the Gang of Eight ahead

1074
01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:40,160
Speaker 14: of the launch of the operation twenty five days ago.

1075
01:05:40,280 --> 01:05:43,320
Speaker 14: And we've also had our top national security officials go

1076
01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:46,600
Speaker 14: to Capitol Hill to brief lawmakers again out of courtesy and.

1077
01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:47,520
Speaker 15: Out of respect for them.

1078
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:50,800
Speaker 14: So at this moment it's unnecessary, but of course, President

1079
01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:52,760
Speaker 14: in this administration will always abide by the law.

1080
01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:56,240
Speaker 15: Gay you want to follow up, sure, go ahead, say you.

1081
01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:59,000
Speaker 16: Questions in our reporting speak a lot to young voters,

1082
01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:00,880
Speaker 16: many of them voted for Press Trump for the first

1083
01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:03,320
Speaker 16: time in twenty twenty four. You're hoping to have no

1084
01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:05,920
Speaker 16: more wars than to have lower prices. Now with the

1085
01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:08,360
Speaker 16: war taking place and with gas prices going up. Here's

1086
01:06:08,360 --> 01:06:10,320
Speaker 16: what President Trump's message would be to those voters who

1087
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:13,320
Speaker 16: kind of swung into his coalition into a question but

1088
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:14,919
Speaker 16: maybe don't field admistrations going.

1089
01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:15,480
Speaker 2: As they extended.

1090
01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:17,000
Speaker 15: President Trump is doing this for you.

1091
01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:19,280
Speaker 14: He's doing this for young people so that we are

1092
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:21,080
Speaker 14: no longer threatened by.

1093
01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:23,880
Speaker 5: Our rogue terrorist regime in the Middle East that seeks.

1094
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 14: To kill the brave men and women who serve in

1095
01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:27,160
Speaker 14: our country in the Middle.

1096
01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:29,520
Speaker 15: East, many of them young people themselves.

1097
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:31,920
Speaker 14: Young men and women who serve this country honorably in

1098
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:34,760
Speaker 14: uniform and have been threatened, killed, and named by the

1099
01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:38,600
Speaker 14: rogue Iranian terrorrist regime for forty seven years. President Trump

1100
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 14: finally had the courage to step up and do what's

1101
01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:43,880
Speaker 14: right by our national security, our homeland security.

1102
01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:45,120
Speaker 4: As for the.

1103
01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:48,919
Speaker 14: Temporary, short term fluctuation and gas prices. The President has said,

1104
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:53,000
Speaker 14: once these combat operations are over, this administration is going

1105
01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:56,760
Speaker 14: to continue to unleash American energy dominance. We're continuing to

1106
01:06:56,800 --> 01:06:58,680
Speaker 14: do that every day, and we're going to see PEP

1107
01:06:58,760 --> 01:06:59,960
Speaker 14: prices at the pump go back down.

1108
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:02,880
Speaker 2: Just as this should have been the argument the day

1109
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:05,160
Speaker 2: of here's what we're doing, here's why we're doing it,

1110
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:06,439
Speaker 2: and here's how I'm doing for you.

1111
01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:10,320
Speaker 4: This is why it matters. Get people on your side.

1112
01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:13,800
Speaker 4: It would have taken twenty six minutes.

1113
01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:18,000
Speaker 2: Nope, twenty two minutes, Nope, seventeen minutes, seventeen minutes tops.

1114
01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:22,480
Speaker 2: This administration doesn't like to do that, and just as

1115
01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:23,800
Speaker 2: a matter of pr it's a mistake.

1116
01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:29,120
Speaker 7: TV has said that Iran has rejected the US's.

1117
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:31,120
Speaker 8: Fifteen point plan to end the war. What's the White

1118
01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:34,480
Speaker 8: House's response to that, And have these talks hit a

1119
01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:34,880
Speaker 8: dead end?

1120
01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:37,600
Speaker 5: They have not. Talks continue.

1121
01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:40,000
Speaker 14: They are productive, as the President said on Monday, and

1122
01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:43,919
Speaker 14: they continue to be. However, I saw a fifteen point

1123
01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,800
Speaker 14: plan that was floated in the media. I would caution

1124
01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:49,760
Speaker 14: reporters in this room from reporting.

1125
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:51,280
Speaker 4: About specul Okay, this is interesting.

1126
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:54,920
Speaker 14: Speculative plans from anonymous sources. The White House never confirmed

1127
01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:57,480
Speaker 14: that full plan. There are elements of truth to it.

1128
01:07:57,600 --> 01:07:59,920
Speaker 2: So this was the Wallshit Journal. Some other places say

1129
01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:03,160
Speaker 2: Iran rejected a fifteen point plan that came out about

1130
01:08:03,160 --> 01:08:07,720
Speaker 2: an hour ago, that they this was rejected by the Iranians. Well,

1131
01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:10,800
Speaker 2: the first question would be by whom who's actually running

1132
01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:14,800
Speaker 2: the show over there? What Carolin Levett is saying is

1133
01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:16,960
Speaker 2: whoa woah. Just because that got said doesn't mean there

1134
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:19,200
Speaker 2: was ever a plan. We never mentioned the plan, We

1135
01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:21,320
Speaker 2: didn't say that there was a fifteen point plan. Just

1136
01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:24,160
Speaker 2: because you're hearing things doesn't make it true. There is

1137
01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:26,679
Speaker 2: a lot of propaganda going back and forth, a lot

1138
01:08:26,720 --> 01:08:28,240
Speaker 2: of trying to manipulate.

1139
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:28,519
Speaker 4: Going back and forth.

1140
01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:31,439
Speaker 2: And for the Iranians, the regime, the objective is to

1141
01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:37,160
Speaker 2: manipulate the press to try and turn the people against Trump.

1142
01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:41,439
Speaker 4: Which is very difficult to do. They're the American press.

1143
01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,760
Speaker 8: What's the US's response to that? What's the US responsible

1144
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:45,559
Speaker 8: for that attack?

1145
01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:47,280
Speaker 15: I'll have to check in with the Pentagon on that

1146
01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:48,439
Speaker 15: and we'll get you an answer.

1147
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:52,080
Speaker 17: Thank you, Caroline too, if I may speak of Johnson

1148
01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:55,240
Speaker 17: today described the conflict as wrapping up, but the eighty

1149
01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:59,160
Speaker 17: secondar Born Division, they're typically deployed at the beginning of conflicts.

1150
01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:02,640
Speaker 2: So does the way how us second Airborne, So the

1151
01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:03,960
Speaker 2: story goes how's been deployed.

1152
01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:06,720
Speaker 14: As I said at the beginning of my remarks, we

1153
01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:12,120
Speaker 14: are meeting our goals of Operation Epic Fury expeditiously. The

1154
01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:16,040
Speaker 14: President likes to maintain options at his disposal. It's the

1155
01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:19,280
Speaker 14: Pentagon's job to provide those options to the Commander in chief.

1156
01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:21,880
Speaker 14: For any specifics on troop deployments.

1157
01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:22,919
Speaker 15: Though, I would point you to the Pentagon.

1158
01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:27,400
Speaker 17: And today Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner reiterated the rest

1159
01:09:27,439 --> 01:09:32,400
Speaker 17: to potentially arrest ICE agents that were sent into assist

1160
01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:35,680
Speaker 17: with these historically long KSA lines. He said, quote, the

1161
01:09:35,720 --> 01:09:39,120
Speaker 17: President cannot pardon you. Does President, seeing Kresner's comments, do

1162
01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:39,960
Speaker 17: you have any response?

1163
01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,439
Speaker 14: The President cannot pardon you for what he's talking to

1164
01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:45,080
Speaker 14: the ICE agents who are handing out water bottles and

1165
01:09:45,120 --> 01:09:47,600
Speaker 14: are helping people move through lines at airports. It's a

1166
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:51,160
Speaker 14: disgraceful comment. The men and women of ICE are great people.

1167
01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:54,200
Speaker 14: I would encourage this lawmaker whose name I don't know

1168
01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:56,800
Speaker 14: and don't care to know, to actually sit down and

1169
01:09:56,840 --> 01:09:58,400
Speaker 14: speak with the ICE agents who.

1170
01:09:58,320 --> 01:09:59,320
Speaker 4: Are a Krasler.

1171
01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:05,719
Speaker 2: We're in work is the DA in Philadelphia and Larry Krausner.

1172
01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:10,960
Speaker 2: She knows the n UH is an outrageous progressive and

1173
01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:15,599
Speaker 2: he's threatening ICE agents. Oh, he's not even shy about it.

1174
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:19,680
Speaker 2: He's like, I'm gonna, I'm gonna come at you and

1175
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:22,519
Speaker 2: I'm gonna arrest you, and I'm gonna I'm gonna punch

1176
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:25,679
Speaker 2: your mom in the mouth and you break the law here,

1177
01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:29,880
Speaker 2: you dirty, dirty Ice agents, and you're gonna you're gonna

1178
01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:33,920
Speaker 2: feel my my wrath, and I'm gonna put you in jail,

1179
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:34,679
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna.

1180
01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:37,880
Speaker 4: Oh, it's gonna be really really bad too.

1181
01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:41,679
Speaker 2: I mean everything about him, says I didn't date much

1182
01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:47,080
Speaker 2: in high school. First, you commit crimes within the jurisdiction

1183
01:10:47,160 --> 01:10:49,200
Speaker 2: that is the city in County of Philadelphia.

1184
01:10:49,680 --> 01:10:50,640
Speaker 8: I prosecute you.

1185
01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:52,559
Speaker 4: That is how it works.

1186
01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:55,679
Speaker 7: No, I don't take a phone call from the President

1187
01:10:55,760 --> 01:10:56,479
Speaker 7: saying let him go.

1188
01:10:56,960 --> 01:10:59,960
Speaker 8: No, the President cannot pardon you. I'll say it again,

1189
01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:01,880
Speaker 8: the President cannot pardon you.

1190
01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:05,320
Speaker 4: And yes, I will put you in.

1191
01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:08,120
Speaker 2: Ancus and I will put you in a courtroom, and

1192
01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:10,320
Speaker 2: if necessary, I will put you on a jail cell.

1193
01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:13,880
Speaker 4: Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly.

1194
01:11:13,479 --> 01:11:15,760
Speaker 2: Love or something. I'm Tony kass.

1195
01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:26,840
Speaker 1: Lie from vall Hartbiner and the Crossroads of America. It's

1196
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:30,160
Speaker 1: Tony Katz today. The markets really do like it when

1197
01:11:30,200 --> 01:11:31,479
Speaker 1: you protect this trait of formose.

1198
01:11:31,680 --> 01:11:35,080
Speaker 2: Oh, they're never so happy as when you're protecting the

1199
01:11:35,120 --> 01:11:36,719
Speaker 2: straits and protecting the oil.

1200
01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:39,200
Speaker 4: And it's just fantastic.

1201
01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:41,320
Speaker 2: And of course the US is saying there's a peace

1202
01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:45,479
Speaker 2: plan with Iran. Now, if you ask me, I'll tell

1203
01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:48,479
Speaker 2: you I have no idea what the heck anybody is

1204
01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:52,200
Speaker 2: talking about at any time of the day when it

1205
01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:55,000
Speaker 2: comes to the idea of a peace plan, when it

1206
01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:58,879
Speaker 2: comes to the idea that somehow magically we are roaming

1207
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:00,760
Speaker 2: free over Tehran.

1208
01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:06,200
Speaker 9: At the city Terran as opposed to Iran. We're roaming free.

1209
01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:10,160
Speaker 9: We can do whatever we want. And as you know today,

1210
01:12:10,320 --> 01:12:12,360
Speaker 9: we were going to have the privilege of shooting down

1211
01:12:12,960 --> 01:12:16,599
Speaker 9: a very big electric generation plant, one of the biggest

1212
01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:19,919
Speaker 9: in the world, and one shot to the right location

1213
01:12:20,479 --> 01:12:23,920
Speaker 9: ends the plant that collapses. And we held off based

1214
01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:25,440
Speaker 9: on the fact that we're negotiating.

1215
01:12:26,720 --> 01:12:28,840
Speaker 17: What do you think was the turning point to make

1216
01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 17: you want to pursue a ceasefire. A few days ago,

1217
01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:33,920
Speaker 17: you know, you said you wanted to continue bombing around.

1218
01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:35,880
Speaker 15: Now you want to pursue peace talks.

1219
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:38,320
Speaker 9: Was there something that they're talking to us?

1220
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:39,400
Speaker 2: And they're talking sense?

1221
01:12:40,240 --> 01:12:42,680
Speaker 9: And remember it all starts that they cannot have a

1222
01:12:42,760 --> 01:12:46,360
Speaker 9: nuclear weapon. Just you know, I said yesterday, they said,

1223
01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:48,680
Speaker 9: what are the top ten? I said, well, number one,

1224
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:51,000
Speaker 9: two and three is they can't have a nuclear weapon.

1225
01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:54,880
Speaker 9: And they're not going to have a nuclear weapon. And

1226
01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:58,080
Speaker 9: we're talking about that. I don't want to say in advance,

1227
01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:00,960
Speaker 9: but they've agreed they will never have a nuclear weapon.

1228
01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:04,040
Speaker 2: They've agreed to that. The question, of course is who

1229
01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:06,599
Speaker 2: is agreed to that? Who possibly has agreed to that?

1230
01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:10,800
Speaker 2: But neither here nor there. The markets here, Oh we've

1231
01:13:10,840 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 2: got peace, and they're like, who market goes nuts? Tony

1241
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:44,639
Speaker 2: the idea that there's gonna be some kind of peace

1242
01:13:44,680 --> 01:13:50,360
Speaker 2: deal when the regime is still in place, if any

1243
01:13:50,360 --> 01:13:52,599
Speaker 2: part of the regime is still in place, if we're

1244
01:13:52,640 --> 01:13:58,200
Speaker 2: dealing with this. Iranian Parliament speaker Mohammed Bagger got it

1245
01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:03,680
Speaker 2: buff he's a hardliner. Oh, but he's a pragmatic hardliner.

1246
01:14:04,160 --> 01:14:04,640
Speaker 4: Stop it.

1247
01:14:06,200 --> 01:14:10,880
Speaker 2: Does he want dead Jews, dead Israel, call America the

1248
01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:14,240
Speaker 2: Great Satan and want to end Western civilization? Yes? Or no?

1249
01:14:14,400 --> 01:14:15,120
Speaker 4: As he waits for.

1250
01:14:15,080 --> 01:14:19,920
Speaker 2: The twelfth Emam, Because if so, it's just a guy

1251
01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:22,840
Speaker 2: with a different hat. That's it.

1252
01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:26,720
Speaker 4: And I don't want us to lie to ourselves.

1253
01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:32,280
Speaker 2: I don't want to pretend that somehow we've done something here.

1254
01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:35,760
Speaker 2: We may have delayed something here, and there is a

1255
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:39,439
Speaker 2: pragmatism to that, but we haven't done something if we

1256
01:14:39,520 --> 01:14:42,320
Speaker 2: haven't ended the regime and their support of terrorism and

1257
01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:46,600
Speaker 2: their pursuit of nuclear anything. And then President Trump yesterday,

1258
01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:52,840
Speaker 2: this was an odd moment in the Oval where he's

1259
01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:56,720
Speaker 2: discussing that they received a big present from the Iranians.

1260
01:14:58,520 --> 01:14:59,439
Speaker 2: They're gonna make a doom.

1261
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:03,240
Speaker 9: They did something yesterday that was amazing. Actually, they gave

1262
01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:07,519
Speaker 9: us a present and the president arrived today and it

1263
01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:11,720
Speaker 9: was a very big present, worth a tremendous amount of money.

1264
01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:14,200
Speaker 2: And I'm not going to tell you what that president is.

1265
01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:16,479
Speaker 2: That meant one thing to me, would deal with the

1266
01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:17,040
Speaker 2: right people.

1267
01:15:18,240 --> 01:15:23,200
Speaker 4: No, it wasn't nuclear related. It was oil and gas related. Well,

1268
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:25,040
Speaker 4: who doesn't like oil and gas?

1269
01:15:25,280 --> 01:15:27,960
Speaker 2: And since this whole conversation is about oil and gas,

1270
01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:30,760
Speaker 2: let me bring it back to the conversation about the

1271
01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:34,160
Speaker 2: Straight of Hormuz. You can't trust the Iranians at all.

1272
01:15:34,200 --> 01:15:35,960
Speaker 2: I love that the Wall Street Journal had a headline

1273
01:15:35,960 --> 01:15:38,120
Speaker 2: and lots of lots of headlines today about how the

1274
01:15:38,160 --> 01:15:41,880
Speaker 2: Iranians are playing hardball. You'll note that the Iranians always

1275
01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:46,720
Speaker 2: play hardball, right, that's how they negotiate. But now they've

1276
01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:48,719
Speaker 2: been punched in the face and they're still playing hardball.

1277
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:50,000
Speaker 2: I think you got to keep punching them in the

1278
01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:54,000
Speaker 2: face until they stop. This is about the Straight of Hormuz,

1279
01:15:54,880 --> 01:16:01,599
Speaker 2: and this story right here about how the British will

1280
01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:07,719
Speaker 2: be in the Strait. The British are sending the Royal

1281
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:12,360
Speaker 2: Navy to lead a coalition to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Now,

1282
01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:17,599
Speaker 2: what exactly did we talk about? Just I think maybe

1283
01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:20,680
Speaker 2: it was a week ago. We discussed the fact that

1284
01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:23,080
Speaker 2: no one should be surprised by any stretch of the

1285
01:16:23,120 --> 01:16:27,960
Speaker 2: imagination that the British weren't a part of or jumping

1286
01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:30,479
Speaker 2: out or chomping at the bit jumping into being a

1287
01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:34,200
Speaker 2: part of this with Iran. Nobody wants to be seen

1288
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:36,559
Speaker 2: as the Johnny come lately. No one wants to be

1289
01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:40,320
Speaker 2: seen as the afterthought. When you're talking about leadership on

1290
01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:43,360
Speaker 2: the world stage and guiding your military is of course

1291
01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:45,599
Speaker 2: how you look strong. And if you're a world leader,

1292
01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:49,080
Speaker 2: a hawk, what an opportunity that is. Let's not kid ourselves,

1293
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:54,719
Speaker 2: let's not pretend. And when you're dealing with the United

1294
01:16:54,720 --> 01:16:58,760
Speaker 2: States in a personality like Trump, these nations actually get

1295
01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:04,040
Speaker 2: a benefit from not succumbing to Trump, not coalescing around him,

1296
01:17:04,040 --> 01:17:08,000
Speaker 2: but rather being tough against him. All politics are local,

1297
01:17:08,400 --> 01:17:11,519
Speaker 2: whether you agree or disagree, leave that to the side.

1298
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:14,679
Speaker 2: Understand how they view it.

1299
01:17:14,680 --> 01:17:15,400
Speaker 4: It's helpful.

1300
01:17:16,600 --> 01:17:18,640
Speaker 2: It's not that Okay, here's how they view it, but

1301
01:17:18,680 --> 01:17:20,400
Speaker 2: maybe here's how they're wrong. In the long run, right,

1302
01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:24,840
Speaker 2: we can debate those out. Understand that it's not all

1303
01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:28,280
Speaker 2: based on what we see. That's what influencers say. But

1304
01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:33,240
Speaker 2: influencers are stupid. Rational people take a look at the

1305
01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:36,680
Speaker 2: conversation and then of course come to a conclusion, but

1306
01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:39,360
Speaker 2: at least understand what's happening around them so they can

1307
01:17:39,439 --> 01:17:44,240
Speaker 2: make that conclusion. These leaders are better off saying, well, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

1308
01:17:44,439 --> 01:17:46,240
Speaker 4: You were not going to be dragged.

1309
01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:48,559
Speaker 2: Into this by you, and we're not here to just

1310
01:17:48,640 --> 01:17:53,360
Speaker 2: clean up your mess. And but now here comes Britain,

1311
01:17:53,400 --> 01:17:56,759
Speaker 2: because remember Britain wouldn't send the aircraft carrier, and then they.

1312
01:17:56,720 --> 01:17:58,559
Speaker 4: Offered it up later and Trump said, well, I don't

1313
01:17:58,560 --> 01:17:59,639
Speaker 4: need your aircraft carrier.

1314
01:17:59,680 --> 01:17:59,880
Speaker 7: Now.

1315
01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:07,000
Speaker 2: There was a report about Iran firing missiles at the

1316
01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:12,120
Speaker 2: USS Abraham Lincoln. I think we'll find out more about

1317
01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:17,679
Speaker 2: this to the extent that we do in the days ahead.

1318
01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:22,280
Speaker 2: It was Naval today that had the story, as I

1319
01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:24,400
Speaker 2: saw it, that Iran fired one hundred and one missiles

1320
01:18:24,439 --> 01:18:25,799
Speaker 2: at the USS Abraham Lincoln.

1321
01:18:26,600 --> 01:18:29,280
Speaker 4: Right, we've got a piece deal, but they're still firing missiles.

1322
01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:31,160
Speaker 4: They do what they do.

1323
01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:35,639
Speaker 2: Now, we should also know everything is about telling a story.

1324
01:18:36,160 --> 01:18:40,479
Speaker 2: Firing missiles is different than hitting I know, I know

1325
01:18:40,520 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 2: what you're going.

1326
01:18:41,040 --> 01:18:42,000
Speaker 4: To say, Do I care?

1327
01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:45,080
Speaker 2: No, I'm with you on that, But understand how these

1328
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:48,839
Speaker 2: things project people trying to say face all sorts of things.

1329
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:52,080
Speaker 2: Who knows if they even have the capability of guiding

1330
01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:55,400
Speaker 2: these missiles at this moment, even though they certainly have

1331
01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:58,120
Speaker 2: missiles that can reach targets twenty five hundred miles away

1332
01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:02,040
Speaker 2: like Europe. That got the interest of the United Kingdom,

1333
01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:04,120
Speaker 2: and maybe that's what made them say, Hey, you know

1334
01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:12,280
Speaker 2: what we'll do. We'll lead the mission to reopen the Strait. Now,

1335
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:15,000
Speaker 2: Keir Starmer, because there was a conversation between President Trump

1336
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:17,640
Speaker 2: and Keir Starmer yesterday, what does kirre Starmer get to do?

1337
01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:19,040
Speaker 2: You knew it the minute I brought it up, and

1338
01:19:19,040 --> 01:19:22,360
Speaker 2: you're like, oh, okay, I can see that politically now

1339
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:26,040
Speaker 2: he's leading something. Now, he's taking a position of strength

1340
01:19:26,360 --> 01:19:31,040
Speaker 2: in order to ensure that the world energy supply continues safely.

1341
01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:34,280
Speaker 2: He's not doing it for the United States. He's doing

1342
01:19:34,320 --> 01:19:41,599
Speaker 2: it for the world. Of course, that's different, And of

1343
01:19:41,640 --> 01:19:44,000
Speaker 2: course you would be right to say that's kind of

1344
01:19:44,040 --> 01:19:45,439
Speaker 2: insulting to the US, isn't it.

1345
01:19:45,479 --> 01:19:48,120
Speaker 4: Sure? But does Trump get out of it?

1346
01:19:48,160 --> 01:19:50,280
Speaker 2: What he needs out of it, which is an open,

1347
01:19:51,360 --> 01:19:56,120
Speaker 2: straight up our Mouz absolutely And if Iran should get

1348
01:19:56,160 --> 01:20:03,360
Speaker 2: a little upity with some warships of the British, because

1349
01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:09,040
Speaker 2: the British absolutely have some warships, well then I guess

1350
01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:12,040
Speaker 2: the UK is going to be a little bit involved here.

1351
01:20:12,080 --> 01:20:14,000
Speaker 2: We are trying to do this thing for the world,

1352
01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:16,639
Speaker 2: and you attack one of our ships, Well, the world's

1353
01:20:16,680 --> 01:20:18,840
Speaker 2: not going to stand for that. And Great Britain has

1354
01:20:18,840 --> 01:20:21,720
Speaker 2: always led the world until America kicked our ass in

1355
01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:27,720
Speaker 2: seventeen seventy six. But until then we totally led the world.

1356
01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:32,880
Speaker 2: All politics are local. Once you start taking a look

1357
01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:36,040
Speaker 2: at these things in that wide swath, you realize how

1358
01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:40,759
Speaker 2: this all comes together, and you can make the argument

1359
01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:44,599
Speaker 2: it's kind of insulting that they wouldn't work with us

1360
01:20:45,160 --> 01:20:49,439
Speaker 2: to take out the Iranian threat. Their response is, you

1361
01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:51,280
Speaker 2: didn't come to us to work with us to work

1362
01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:53,640
Speaker 2: on the Iranian threat, so we're not going to be

1363
01:20:53,640 --> 01:20:56,200
Speaker 2: follow the leader. But now they get to be a leader,

1364
01:20:56,920 --> 01:21:00,160
Speaker 2: and after all, that's what they want because they're they're

1365
01:21:00,360 --> 01:21:01,360
Speaker 2: saving face.

1366
01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:02,120
Speaker 4: Two.

1367
01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:06,599
Speaker 2: But the move helps the United States, and the move

1368
01:21:06,680 --> 01:21:11,040
Speaker 2: helps the oil markets. The move makes everybody feel super

1369
01:21:11,240 --> 01:21:17,200
Speaker 2: super duper good. Now, I will admit that from remember,

1370
01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:19,519
Speaker 2: these things will change, and they're changing all the time.

1371
01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:23,559
Speaker 2: West Texas crude this morning was like eighty eight dollars

1372
01:21:23,560 --> 01:21:26,080
Speaker 2: a barrel, and Brent crude was one hundred dollars a barrel.

1373
01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:28,479
Speaker 2: And there was like this eleven dollars. It was like

1374
01:21:28,520 --> 01:21:30,639
Speaker 2: eighty eight fifty or something like that on the Brent.

1375
01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:33,719
Speaker 2: So Brent, I'm sorry, West Texas was eighty eight dollars

1376
01:21:33,760 --> 01:21:36,760
Speaker 2: and fifty cents or so. West Texas crude known as

1377
01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:41,360
Speaker 2: the WTI West Texas intermediate that comes out of the ground.

1378
01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:44,559
Speaker 2: Brent crude comes out of the oceans. That's the way

1379
01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:46,840
Speaker 2: I define it. Somebody who knows more about oil could

1380
01:21:46,840 --> 01:21:48,439
Speaker 2: define it a little bit better than me, but that's

1381
01:21:48,439 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 2: the way I break it down to these two categories.

1382
01:21:51,439 --> 01:21:54,680
Speaker 2: The spread, as I've been covering the stuff on my

1383
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:56,680
Speaker 2: I talk about this stuff on my morning show every day.

1384
01:21:57,880 --> 01:22:01,639
Speaker 2: The spread's usually like three to five bucks. West Texas

1385
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:03,840
Speaker 2: is lower than Brent crude. The difference is three to

1386
01:22:03,920 --> 01:22:07,880
Speaker 2: five dollars usually that's what it is. Now with this

1387
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:09,559
Speaker 2: the spread has been higher, and there's been a while

1388
01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:12,200
Speaker 2: where West Texas was above Brent and now the spread

1389
01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:15,760
Speaker 2: is about eleven dollars a barrel brent crued out of

1390
01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:20,200
Speaker 2: the oceans, more expensive than West Texas crued. I I

1391
01:22:20,280 --> 01:22:22,479
Speaker 2: can't tell you specifically what that means. I'm trying to

1392
01:22:22,479 --> 01:22:24,040
Speaker 2: get an answer to that. And if you guys know,

1393
01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:26,880
Speaker 2: if somebody knows who knows this business, Tony at tonycats

1394
01:22:26,880 --> 01:22:29,880
Speaker 2: dot com, send me an email. I'd love to get

1395
01:22:29,920 --> 01:22:33,599
Speaker 2: you your take on that, on that what that means,

1396
01:22:33,640 --> 01:22:37,479
Speaker 2: and if there's something specific there or if it's just no,

1397
01:22:37,600 --> 01:22:40,080
Speaker 2: it's just because these things are traveling near the oceans,

1398
01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:42,240
Speaker 2: it's just taking a little bit longer, right, we actually

1399
01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:43,840
Speaker 2: categorize it in a different way, et cetera.

1400
01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:46,280
Speaker 4: Right, there could be a bunch of reasons.

1401
01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:51,559
Speaker 2: But the West Texas under one hundred dollars a barrel

1402
01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:54,040
Speaker 2: or back into the eighties has got to make people

1403
01:22:54,120 --> 01:22:57,360
Speaker 2: feel good. And the markets today, you.

1404
01:22:57,320 --> 01:23:00,280
Speaker 4: Know, had the pre Mark it.

1405
01:23:01,840 --> 01:23:06,680
Speaker 2: At like a plus four hundred and the Nasdaq was

1406
01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:11,920
Speaker 2: plus two fifty. They're happy about it. The Dow is like,

1407
01:23:12,240 --> 01:23:16,920
Speaker 2: finally we're getting somewhere, Which brings us to another part

1408
01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:22,040
Speaker 2: of all this that's worthy of note, which is the outrageous,

1409
01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:33,679
Speaker 2: childlike nervous response of the Democrat Party, which looks at everything.

1410
01:23:33,120 --> 01:23:35,320
Speaker 4: And says, this is terrible, and this.

1411
01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:38,439
Speaker 2: Is awful and what a mess, and look at the

1412
01:23:38,520 --> 01:23:42,760
Speaker 2: disaster and look what Trump did and sky high prices?

1413
01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:46,440
Speaker 4: Is that true of tomorrow?

1414
01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:52,000
Speaker 2: The objective being all politics, being local is to take

1415
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:56,200
Speaker 2: whatever the calamity is of the moment and make it

1416
01:23:56,280 --> 01:24:02,160
Speaker 2: the most important calamity. Sometimes times we fall for that.

1417
01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:10,920
Speaker 2: Because we're human, and because these media assets work in

1418
01:24:11,040 --> 01:24:16,680
Speaker 2: such a way to try and take one subject and

1419
01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:21,439
Speaker 2: make it the only subject and it's all you hear,

1420
01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:26,120
Speaker 2: we it can sometimes fall for it. So we're just

1421
01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:28,880
Speaker 2: as human as anybody else. So what's important is that

1422
01:24:28,920 --> 01:24:33,080
Speaker 2: we take a step back. Oil prices have been high,

1423
01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:35,759
Speaker 2: and gas prices are a bucket gallon higher than they were,

1424
01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:39,080
Speaker 2: and in my state of Indiana they're four dollars. It's

1425
01:24:39,080 --> 01:24:43,240
Speaker 2: four dollars a gallon now and four dollars gallon gas sucks,

1426
01:24:44,960 --> 01:24:49,120
Speaker 2: and in other places it's more. Is that going to

1427
01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:53,759
Speaker 2: be the case next week? The Democrat Party on Twitter

1428
01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:58,000
Speaker 2: had the audacity to talk about high gas prices and

1429
01:24:58,080 --> 01:25:03,200
Speaker 2: never once talking about Joe Biden's high gas prices. With

1430
01:25:03,400 --> 01:25:08,040
Speaker 2: Donald Trump, we could argue it is a temporary policy,

1431
01:25:08,400 --> 01:25:11,000
Speaker 2: if only because the War Powers Act would require this

1432
01:25:11,080 --> 01:25:14,439
Speaker 2: all to be done in sixty days. If he's utilizing

1433
01:25:14,479 --> 01:25:17,439
Speaker 2: the Warpowers Act to engage this action, he could take

1434
01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:20,559
Speaker 2: the action. He could has to then notify Congressman forty

1435
01:25:20,560 --> 01:25:23,000
Speaker 2: eight hours, which he did. He has sixty days to

1436
01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:25,760
Speaker 2: conclude the action. He can request an extra thirty days

1437
01:25:25,800 --> 01:25:29,120
Speaker 2: to wind down the removal of the military for their

1438
01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:33,759
Speaker 2: safety and security. That's going to happen. That's going to happen,

1439
01:25:36,040 --> 01:25:40,320
Speaker 2: and then this gets wound down if the Strait of

1440
01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:43,200
Speaker 2: Hormuz is opened again, if there is a level of

1441
01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:46,920
Speaker 2: deal made, even if I disagree with it, because it

1442
01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:51,679
Speaker 2: doesn't involve the removal of the regime, and the West

1443
01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:53,360
Speaker 2: Texas crude, which is.

1444
01:25:53,280 --> 01:25:56,000
Speaker 4: Now at eighty eight drops down to seventy.

1445
01:25:55,640 --> 01:25:57,680
Speaker 2: One, not into the mid sixties where it was when

1446
01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:00,960
Speaker 2: this started, but to seventy one dollars. You might be

1447
01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:04,439
Speaker 2: paying an extra nickel. I might be paying an extra nickele.

1448
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:05,960
Speaker 2: It's not that I want to pay an extra nickel.

1449
01:26:07,320 --> 01:26:11,680
Speaker 2: I am saying it isn't for forever. It isn't because

1450
01:26:11,840 --> 01:26:15,360
Speaker 2: Joe Biden in that administration engage policies that said, we

1451
01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:17,880
Speaker 2: don't care if you're paying too much for gas. It

1452
01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:20,960
Speaker 2: doesn't matter for us because, as Scott Jennings pointed out

1453
01:26:21,080 --> 01:26:24,080
Speaker 2: very well on CNN the other day, Democrats love high

1454
01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:27,880
Speaker 2: gas prices because it helps people move to the wind

1455
01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:28,639
Speaker 2: and to the solar.

1456
01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:31,120
Speaker 4: And Democrats are like, oh, that's not true.

1457
01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:36,879
Speaker 2: Barack Obama stated in the run for president, he stated

1458
01:26:36,960 --> 01:26:44,439
Speaker 2: the words that we have to change how people view

1459
01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:45,759
Speaker 2: these things.

1460
01:26:46,720 --> 01:26:47,400
Speaker 4: We have to.

1461
01:26:49,600 --> 01:26:57,080
Speaker 2: Artificially increase the price of gas, because if we don't,

1462
01:26:59,120 --> 01:27:01,799
Speaker 2: no one's going to use use these other fuel sources.

1463
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:07,120
Speaker 2: So we have to change things around. And therefore, therefore

1464
01:27:07,520 --> 01:27:11,920
Speaker 2: the price of oil, the price of gas will necessarily skyrocket.

1465
01:27:12,680 --> 01:27:15,519
Speaker 2: Don't believe me, Okay, believe him.

1466
01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:18,320
Speaker 10: You know, and and climate change is a great example.

1467
01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:20,960
Speaker 10: You know, when I was asked earlier about.

1468
01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:30,880
Speaker 18: The issue of coal. You know, under my plan of

1469
01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:31,960
Speaker 18: a cap and trade.

1470
01:27:31,720 --> 01:27:39,640
Speaker 10: System, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket, even regardless of what

1471
01:27:39,760 --> 01:27:42,799
Speaker 10: I say about whether coal is good or bad, because

1472
01:27:42,840 --> 01:27:48,240
Speaker 10: I'm capping greenhouse gases, coal power plants, you know, natural gas,

1473
01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:51,040
Speaker 10: you name, whatever the plants were, whatever the industry was,

1474
01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:56,519
Speaker 10: they would have to retrofit their operations that will cost money,

1475
01:27:56,520 --> 01:27:58,280
Speaker 10: they will pass that money onto consumers.

1476
01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:01,720
Speaker 2: Case rested, they were fine with and I've always been

1477
01:28:01,760 --> 01:28:05,920
Speaker 2: fine with your energy costs going up so they could

1478
01:28:05,920 --> 01:28:11,320
Speaker 2: push their green agenda. This is not new. Don't get

1479
01:28:11,360 --> 01:28:13,360
Speaker 2: wrapped up in the idea that this is for forever.

1480
01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:19,400
Speaker 2: That's influencer progressive bull crap talk. We have to ask

1481
01:28:19,400 --> 01:28:23,760
Speaker 2: ourselves what is happening. What is the actual tangible thing.

1482
01:28:25,439 --> 01:28:27,719
Speaker 2: If the British get to the strait of horm moves

1483
01:28:28,320 --> 01:28:30,880
Speaker 2: and oil starts to flow and gas prices come down,

1484
01:28:32,479 --> 01:28:35,960
Speaker 2: what are these lefties screaming about? And you realize what

1485
01:28:35,960 --> 01:28:39,040
Speaker 2: they're screaming about is we don't care how we demoralize

1486
01:28:39,120 --> 01:28:42,080
Speaker 2: US troops or the American people. We don't care how

1487
01:28:42,160 --> 01:28:46,960
Speaker 2: much we actually help the bowie. The morale of the

1488
01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:50,479
Speaker 2: Iranian regime lowlifes. As long as Trump loses, and as

1489
01:28:50,479 --> 01:28:52,799
Speaker 2: long as Democrats get power, they'll say anything.

1490
01:28:54,240 --> 01:28:54,400
Speaker 10: You know.

1491
01:28:54,520 --> 01:28:56,800
Speaker 4: I'm right, I'm Tony Katz.

1492
01:28:56,840 --> 01:29:00,120
Speaker 2: This is Tony Katz Today, Speaker Mike Johnson delivering a

1493
01:29:00,160 --> 01:29:04,000
Speaker 2: bit of a SmackDown today Tony Katz, Tony Katz Today, guys,

1494
01:29:04,040 --> 01:29:05,040
Speaker 2: thanks for being here.

1495
01:29:05,400 --> 01:29:07,559
Speaker 4: Talk to me about the murder of Sheridan Gorman.

1496
01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:12,120
Speaker 2: She was killed in Chicago by an illegal Venezuelan immigrants,

1497
01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:15,040
Speaker 2: and Mayor Johnson and some aldermen are like, well, it's

1498
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:17,080
Speaker 2: wrong place, wrong time. Well you know, what are you

1499
01:29:17,080 --> 01:29:20,240
Speaker 2: gonna do? Oh? How dare you speak poorly of immigrants?

1500
01:29:20,280 --> 01:29:23,040
Speaker 2: We're talking about illegal immigrants. We're talking about a murderer here.

1501
01:29:23,680 --> 01:29:25,200
Speaker 2: And Speaker Johnson.

1502
01:29:25,120 --> 01:29:27,599
Speaker 19: And we know that Medina Medina entered the United States

1503
01:29:27,600 --> 01:29:31,200
Speaker 19: illegally on May ninth, twenty twenty three. That's under the

1504
01:29:31,200 --> 01:29:33,719
Speaker 19: Biden administration with their wide open borders policy.

1505
01:29:34,280 --> 01:29:35,719
Speaker 5: We also know he was caught by.

1506
01:29:35,560 --> 01:29:38,400
Speaker 19: Border patrol and let into the country, released into the

1507
01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:42,200
Speaker 19: country like millions of others, and thanks to the Democrats'

1508
01:29:42,200 --> 01:29:47,200
Speaker 19: open border policy, those are indisputable facts. But for that

1509
01:29:47,439 --> 01:29:51,120
Speaker 19: crazy set of policies, this young lady would still be alive.

1510
01:29:52,360 --> 01:29:55,000
Speaker 19: Weeks later, Medina was arrested in a major American city

1511
01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:58,120
Speaker 19: after they let him in again, only to be released

1512
01:29:58,160 --> 01:30:01,840
Speaker 19: onto the streets of Chicago. Why because of crazy Democrat

1513
01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:06,440
Speaker 19: policies he would later take the life of Sheridan Gorman.

1514
01:30:07,040 --> 01:30:09,200
Speaker 19: The irony of all this is that the system did

1515
01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:13,160
Speaker 19: not fail share it and that worked exactly as the

1516
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,519
Speaker 19: Democrats intended. You had Democrats in charge of the White

1517
01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:19,479
Speaker 19: House and in charge in the City of Chicago, open

1518
01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:24,799
Speaker 19: borders policies, sanctuary cities policies. They coddled the criminal, illegal alien,

1519
01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:27,719
Speaker 19: they empowered, They allowed this to happen, and that's why

1520
01:30:27,760 --> 01:30:29,320
Speaker 19: we're so angry about it.

1521
01:30:29,560 --> 01:30:32,600
Speaker 2: I very much appreciate this kind of talk. They did this,

1522
01:30:33,479 --> 01:30:37,000
Speaker 2: their policies did this, and it is the perfect line.

1523
01:30:37,040 --> 01:30:39,639
Speaker 2: It's actually a takeoff of a line Donald Trump used

1524
01:30:39,680 --> 01:30:41,200
Speaker 2: him from the UN in his first term, which I

1525
01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:44,360
Speaker 2: think is his best speech ever in Venezuela. It's not

1526
01:30:44,479 --> 01:30:48,519
Speaker 2: that socialism has been implemented improperly, it's that it was

1527
01:30:48,600 --> 01:30:52,880
Speaker 2: implemented faithfully. That's why it's a disaster, and that's why

1528
01:30:52,920 --> 01:30:54,720
Speaker 2: democratic policies are disasters.

1529
01:30:55,080 --> 01:30:58,519
Speaker 4: Remember that come the midterms. I'm Tony Katz. This is

1530
01:30:58,600 --> 01:31:00,120
Speaker 4: Tony Katz Today.

1531
01:31:01,320 --> 01:31:05,920
Speaker 2: It's more than probable, more than possible. It's probable that

1532
01:31:05,960 --> 01:31:09,640
Speaker 2: you're not familiar with the name Kara Swisher, which is

1533
01:31:09,720 --> 01:31:13,120
Speaker 2: okay because you're not somebody reading the New York Times

1534
01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:18,280
Speaker 2: or watching CNN. Because mostly you love yourself. Tony Katz,

1535
01:31:18,720 --> 01:31:21,400
Speaker 2: Tony Katz today, Good to be here, good to be with.

1536
01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:24,240
Speaker 2: You find everything I do over at Tony Katz dot com.

1537
01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:30,719
Speaker 2: She is a tech reporter. That's how she made her bones.

1538
01:31:31,439 --> 01:31:36,840
Speaker 2: And then she created a recode with Walt Mosberg, who's

1539
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:39,519
Speaker 2: a famous name in that world. And then she did

1540
01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:41,320
Speaker 2: opinion for the New York Times, and then she was

1541
01:31:41,400 --> 01:31:46,240
Speaker 2: back over it at Vox, and she now has a

1542
01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:49,519
Speaker 2: show on CNN. I don't know how she got a

1543
01:31:49,560 --> 01:31:53,480
Speaker 2: show on CNN. I'm not in charge of CNN's programming.

1544
01:31:53,640 --> 01:31:55,960
Speaker 2: If I was in charge of CNN's programming, I would

1545
01:31:56,000 --> 01:31:58,320
Speaker 2: have a show on CNN and they would have ratings.

1546
01:31:58,680 --> 01:32:03,519
Speaker 2: I had said when when Jim Acosta, in the most

1547
01:32:03,560 --> 01:32:08,360
Speaker 2: stunning and pseudo intellectual move ever, he couldn't come to

1548
01:32:08,400 --> 01:32:11,680
Speaker 2: some deal with CNN because they didn't want him to

1549
01:32:11,720 --> 01:32:14,080
Speaker 2: have the show that he had. They wanted to move

1550
01:32:14,160 --> 01:32:17,240
Speaker 2: him to midnight, midnight to two am, and he was

1551
01:32:17,280 --> 01:32:20,439
Speaker 2: making like seven hundred and fifty grand. Now you could argue, hey,

1552
01:32:20,479 --> 01:32:23,000
Speaker 2: in the TV world, that's not much, but in the

1553
01:32:23,080 --> 01:32:25,720
Speaker 2: jem Acosta world, that's more than he deserved.

1554
01:32:26,479 --> 01:32:27,960
Speaker 4: And he was like, I'm not going to do that.

1555
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:32,920
Speaker 4: I'm going to go about starting my own podcast. Okay

1556
01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:36,840
Speaker 4: man go start your own podcast. I'm not here to.

1557
01:32:36,760 --> 01:32:44,080
Speaker 2: Stop you, but for anybody thinking of starting their own podcast, you.

1558
01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:45,200
Speaker 4: Start the podcast.

1559
01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:51,320
Speaker 2: If you're on traditional media, you do not start the podcast.

1560
01:32:53,600 --> 01:32:54,280
Speaker 4: Afterwards.

1561
01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:58,360
Speaker 2: You started before you start it while you have the

1562
01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:01,920
Speaker 2: other thing, so if you lose the thing, you still

1563
01:33:01,960 --> 01:33:05,800
Speaker 2: have somewhere to go. Now, Jim Acosta has more subscribers

1564
01:33:05,800 --> 01:33:07,680
Speaker 2: than I do. He has two hundred and forty eight

1565
01:33:07,680 --> 01:33:13,120
Speaker 2: thousand subscribers on YouTube. That to me is an unbelievable number.

1566
01:33:15,160 --> 01:33:18,160
Speaker 2: His videos get six thousand views, five thousand views. There's

1567
01:33:18,200 --> 01:33:20,880
Speaker 2: one that got one hundred and fifteen thousand views, so

1568
01:33:20,960 --> 01:33:24,519
Speaker 2: he can get some numbers. I cannot tell you if

1569
01:33:24,560 --> 01:33:29,120
Speaker 2: he's making any money. I'm willing to bet that it's

1570
01:33:29,120 --> 01:33:31,200
Speaker 2: not the seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

1571
01:33:32,720 --> 01:33:34,200
Speaker 4: I'm willing to bet that.

1572
01:33:34,400 --> 01:33:38,240
Speaker 2: While indeed, I mean he's doing award winning interviews with

1573
01:33:38,280 --> 01:33:45,200
Speaker 2: Steve Schmidt. My point proven this is all just leftist insanity.

1574
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:48,400
Speaker 2: And if you want to hear about leftist insanity, did

1575
01:33:48,439 --> 01:33:53,040
Speaker 2: you hear this from Jennifer Welch again, who does a

1576
01:33:53,240 --> 01:33:59,040
Speaker 2: podcast talking about jd Vance and his wife Una and

1577
01:33:59,120 --> 01:33:59,759
Speaker 2: their kids.

1578
01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:01,080
Speaker 4: Listen to this.

1579
01:34:01,400 --> 01:34:04,479
Speaker 11: He is married to a woman of Indian descent. He

1580
01:34:04,560 --> 01:34:08,000
Speaker 11: has mixed race children. So to all of the MAGA

1581
01:34:08,040 --> 01:34:10,880
Speaker 11: voters out there, if this man will not defend his

1582
01:34:10,960 --> 01:34:14,960
Speaker 11: wife and will not defend his kids, do you think

1583
01:34:15,200 --> 01:34:18,120
Speaker 11: he gives a crap about you or anything to do

1584
01:34:18,240 --> 01:34:18,479
Speaker 11: with you.

1585
01:34:19,320 --> 01:34:23,360
Speaker 2: Defend his kids from? What? What are you possibly referring to?

1586
01:34:23,400 --> 01:34:25,960
Speaker 2: Her name is Jennifer Welch. She's like this new face

1587
01:34:26,040 --> 01:34:30,800
Speaker 2: the Democratic Party. She is beyond vile. She is the

1588
01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:36,640
Speaker 2: poster child of being a Karen. Whatever affluent suburb is

1589
01:34:36,920 --> 01:34:40,280
Speaker 2: near where you live, that's where she lives. And guaranteed

1590
01:34:40,640 --> 01:34:44,880
Speaker 2: she's on the HOA board. Why you bring up his kids?

1591
01:34:44,920 --> 01:34:46,639
Speaker 2: What do you mean he doesn't care about his kids?

1592
01:34:46,960 --> 01:34:50,719
Speaker 2: What possibly you talking about? You don't think he knows

1593
01:34:50,760 --> 01:34:53,880
Speaker 2: his wife is Indian? He married the woman, and I'm

1594
01:34:53,920 --> 01:34:56,160
Speaker 2: pretty sure he may have seen her in various stages

1595
01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:59,360
Speaker 2: of undress, what with having the children and all. You

1596
01:34:59,400 --> 01:35:02,640
Speaker 2: don't think he noticed? What argument is this?

1597
01:35:03,120 --> 01:35:04,639
Speaker 4: What insanity is this?

1598
01:35:04,960 --> 01:35:07,559
Speaker 2: But this on the political left, as Chris Hayes is

1599
01:35:07,800 --> 01:35:10,840
Speaker 2: in interviewing her, I guess this passes as some kind

1600
01:35:10,840 --> 01:35:11,800
Speaker 2: of rational thought.

1601
01:35:12,840 --> 01:35:16,960
Speaker 4: Jim Acosta was never a journalist. Jim Acosta.

1602
01:35:17,800 --> 01:35:20,360
Speaker 2: Was a leftist who was on CNN and his job

1603
01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:24,720
Speaker 2: was to attack President Trump, not because Jim Acosta is right,

1604
01:35:24,920 --> 01:35:27,840
Speaker 2: but because attacking the president would keep you on the air.

1605
01:35:28,240 --> 01:35:29,920
Speaker 2: And he got offered midnight to two and he's like,

1606
01:35:29,960 --> 01:35:32,000
Speaker 2: I'm not going to do that, and I said at

1607
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:35,040
Speaker 2: the time, I'll take that show right now. I will

1608
01:35:35,080 --> 01:35:38,480
Speaker 2: take midnight to two. I do a morning show in Indianapolis.

1609
01:35:38,560 --> 01:35:41,320
Speaker 2: I got this show right here, I've got eat, drink, smoke.

1610
01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:45,400
Speaker 2: I will take that show right now, midnight to two am.

1611
01:35:45,680 --> 01:35:47,479
Speaker 2: Pay me half of.

1612
01:35:47,439 --> 01:35:50,120
Speaker 4: The seven to fifty, all right, a little more than half.

1613
01:35:50,120 --> 01:35:51,840
Speaker 2: Well, just round it up to four hundred, and I

1614
01:35:51,880 --> 01:35:55,240
Speaker 2: will have better ratings than Jim Acosta ever had in

1615
01:35:55,320 --> 01:35:59,360
Speaker 2: six months at midnight to two now that's eastern of course,

1616
01:35:59,360 --> 01:36:01,960
Speaker 2: that's nine to on the West coast. I will have

1617
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:04,960
Speaker 2: better ratings. It'll be more entertaining show. You will love it.

1618
01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:08,200
Speaker 2: And then you'll pay me what you paid him. You

1619
01:36:08,200 --> 01:36:09,759
Speaker 2: know what, You'll pay me a little bit more because

1620
01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:14,439
Speaker 2: I exceeded the expectation. He wasn't willing to take that deal.

1621
01:36:15,080 --> 01:36:18,760
Speaker 2: Crazy use the platform, then build your other platform. That's

1622
01:36:18,800 --> 01:36:23,080
Speaker 2: the business. Boo boo, that's how it works. By the way,

1623
01:36:23,120 --> 01:36:26,639
Speaker 2: follow me on YouTube, Tony Katzy, sure to subscribe.

1624
01:36:26,800 --> 01:36:29,680
Speaker 4: Jim Acosta two hundred and forty eight thousand subscribers.

1625
01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:32,639
Speaker 2: That is a lot of people living in their mom's

1626
01:36:32,720 --> 01:36:39,679
Speaker 2: basement and angry liberal white women. Kara Swisher, She's got

1627
01:36:39,680 --> 01:36:47,800
Speaker 2: a show coming to CNN. Kara Swisher wants to live forever. Well,

1628
01:36:47,840 --> 01:36:51,920
Speaker 2: so I guess it's about tech, and it's about longevity

1629
01:36:52,040 --> 01:36:55,639
Speaker 2: and how people will will survive and are trying to survive,

1630
01:36:55,680 --> 01:36:56,160
Speaker 2: and that's.

1631
01:36:55,960 --> 01:36:56,840
Speaker 4: What the show is about.

1632
01:36:57,800 --> 01:37:02,840
Speaker 2: Except now she's come out to say that with the

1633
01:37:02,920 --> 01:37:08,799
Speaker 2: new purchase of CNN by Paramount sky Dance, because Paramount

1634
01:37:08,800 --> 01:37:16,240
Speaker 2: skuy Dance, which is owned by Ellison, is purchasing Warner

1635
01:37:16,400 --> 01:37:21,360
Speaker 2: Warner owns CNN. Ellison, Larry Allison, of course, Oracle David

1636
01:37:21,360 --> 01:37:25,360
Speaker 2: Ellison is the Sun. They purchased Paramount, which is of

1637
01:37:25,360 --> 01:37:27,840
Speaker 2: course CBS. They put in Barry Weiss as the editor

1638
01:37:27,880 --> 01:37:31,160
Speaker 2: in chief, and layoffs started to happen. They just ended

1639
01:37:31,160 --> 01:37:34,120
Speaker 2: the whole radio world of CBS. CBS radio was around

1640
01:37:34,120 --> 01:37:36,719
Speaker 2: for almost one hundred years. It is kind of nutty

1641
01:37:37,320 --> 01:37:40,160
Speaker 2: that it took place, but it's also the way things

1642
01:37:40,200 --> 01:37:44,000
Speaker 2: go and people quit and then they were laid off.

1643
01:37:44,880 --> 01:37:45,519
Speaker 4: And it's funny.

1644
01:37:45,520 --> 01:37:48,320
Speaker 2: One of the guys who was laid off said, hey,

1645
01:37:48,360 --> 01:37:51,839
Speaker 2: I got a new job. It's the most liberal outfit possible.

1646
01:37:51,840 --> 01:37:54,360
Speaker 2: It's called Midas Touch and their whole job is to

1647
01:37:54,360 --> 01:37:56,799
Speaker 2: be anti Trump. That's the whole that's their whole purpose.

1648
01:37:57,720 --> 01:38:00,639
Speaker 2: That's where he got a job. So really no change

1649
01:38:00,640 --> 01:38:05,160
Speaker 2: for him because of this purchase, and because of people

1650
01:38:05,200 --> 01:38:09,080
Speaker 2: hating Barry Weiss, who is not a conservative, but she

1651
01:38:09,160 --> 01:38:11,360
Speaker 2: believes in free speech and she actually wants to build

1652
01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:17,360
Speaker 2: a newsroom. Kara Swisher is now saying that when this

1653
01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:19,640
Speaker 2: takeover takes place.

1654
01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:21,320
Speaker 4: She's going to leave.

1655
01:38:22,600 --> 01:38:27,920
Speaker 2: The moment Paramount's guidance completes the takeover of Warner Brothers, She's.

1656
01:38:29,600 --> 01:38:30,240
Speaker 4: She's leaving.

1657
01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:34,639
Speaker 2: You have no idea what's going to happen. You're going

1658
01:38:34,680 --> 01:38:36,760
Speaker 2: to quit before they have a chance to fire you.

1659
01:38:36,880 --> 01:38:39,879
Speaker 2: That's clearly the way to take this right. That's clearly

1660
01:38:39,920 --> 01:38:43,400
Speaker 2: what it is that Switcher's saying here. She knows she's

1661
01:38:43,479 --> 01:38:47,040
Speaker 2: going to be fired because she knows that everything that

1662
01:38:47,080 --> 01:38:49,360
Speaker 2: she discusses, because somehow she's been allowed to be this

1663
01:38:49,400 --> 01:38:57,920
Speaker 2: opinion person, is all progressive nonsense and nothing that is rational. Now,

1664
01:38:58,040 --> 01:39:04,000
Speaker 2: when CNN hired Chris Lived, I had high hopes for.

1665
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:05,160
Speaker 4: Him as the CEO.

1666
01:39:05,840 --> 01:39:10,439
Speaker 2: His job was to reset CNN into a it's a

1667
01:39:10,439 --> 01:39:14,719
Speaker 2: worthy model, and it didn't work. Lots of resistance, lots

1668
01:39:14,760 --> 01:39:20,400
Speaker 2: of leaks, and then he was let go. It really

1669
01:39:20,479 --> 01:39:23,559
Speaker 2: stinks for him now. Maybe he wasn't the leader that

1670
01:39:23,680 --> 01:39:26,720
Speaker 2: was necessary. I don't know the man, I don't know

1671
01:39:26,720 --> 01:39:30,679
Speaker 2: all the internals, but I do know that CNN wants

1672
01:39:30,720 --> 01:39:35,559
Speaker 2: to be this a progressive outfit claiming to be decent.

1673
01:39:36,960 --> 01:39:39,920
Speaker 2: They don't apologize for pushing Russia, Russia, Russia. They don't

1674
01:39:39,920 --> 01:39:44,040
Speaker 2: apologize for pushing any COVID scams, they don't apologize for

1675
01:39:44,120 --> 01:39:47,960
Speaker 2: hiding Hunter Biden, and they still have the audacity to

1676
01:39:48,000 --> 01:39:52,360
Speaker 2: claim that they're the decent ones. You watch Abby Phillip

1677
01:39:52,439 --> 01:39:55,479
Speaker 2: on her show Abby Phillip Tonight, a show that could

1678
01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:59,320
Speaker 2: have been monumental for CNN in making this pivot, and

1679
01:39:59,360 --> 01:40:03,479
Speaker 2: wouldn't have taken and munch and instead support every leftist

1680
01:40:03,520 --> 01:40:06,599
Speaker 2: on the show attack Scott Jennings all day, all night,

1681
01:40:06,680 --> 01:40:09,360
Speaker 2: all the time, and that guy handles himself like no

1682
01:40:09,400 --> 01:40:16,560
Speaker 2: one you've ever seen. It's super impressive, super duper impressive.

1683
01:40:18,840 --> 01:40:24,120
Speaker 2: CNN hasn't changed a bit. They are still the Jim

1684
01:40:24,120 --> 01:40:29,280
Speaker 2: Acosta place. They're still the Jim Acosta station. If she

1685
01:40:29,520 --> 01:40:32,559
Speaker 2: is indeed telling the truth that she's going to be gone.

1686
01:40:33,160 --> 01:40:36,080
Speaker 2: The question being asked was actually asked by Garrett Seawright

1687
01:40:36,120 --> 01:40:39,040
Speaker 2: in one of the radio trades called Barrett Media Barrettmedia

1688
01:40:39,080 --> 01:40:39,759
Speaker 2: dot Com.

1689
01:40:42,120 --> 01:40:43,240
Speaker 4: It's the right question.

1690
01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:47,960
Speaker 2: Is kro Switcher on her own or other people going

1691
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:53,960
Speaker 2: to follow suit? Will other people quit CNN because of

1692
01:40:54,040 --> 01:40:54,760
Speaker 2: the takeover?

1693
01:40:55,439 --> 01:40:58,759
Speaker 4: And my answer is gosh, I hope so.

1694
01:41:00,280 --> 01:41:04,040
Speaker 2: Good. Let them leave. Do you know how much talent

1695
01:41:04,200 --> 01:41:08,000
Speaker 2: is out there, Tony? You're just talking about yourself. Oh yeah, sure,

1696
01:41:08,439 --> 01:41:10,960
Speaker 2: I'd all be a great opportunity as long as I

1697
01:41:10,960 --> 01:41:15,320
Speaker 2: didn't have to do one of those kinds of shows, right,

1698
01:41:15,880 --> 01:41:20,000
Speaker 2: I know I could do it, like as a host.

1699
01:41:20,240 --> 01:41:26,599
Speaker 2: I'm fully aware that I could do the Hannity type show.

1700
01:41:28,080 --> 01:41:31,160
Speaker 2: I don't think that's what I want. Could I do

1701
01:41:31,240 --> 01:41:35,040
Speaker 2: the Brett Bher kind of show? Yes, I could. I

1702
01:41:35,040 --> 01:41:38,040
Speaker 2: would be more interested in the Tim Russer esque kind

1703
01:41:38,040 --> 01:41:39,639
Speaker 2: of show. And you could argue, isn't that what Brett

1704
01:41:39,640 --> 01:41:42,640
Speaker 2: Baer does? And I would say I would think that

1705
01:41:42,720 --> 01:41:46,760
Speaker 2: there's a little more rigidness to Brettbear's time slot.

1706
01:41:46,960 --> 01:41:49,840
Speaker 4: And I would want a little more expansiveness.

1707
01:41:49,880 --> 01:41:52,799
Speaker 2: So that's where I make the difference, not disparaging Brettbaar

1708
01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:55,920
Speaker 2: in the slightest, but what I really want is late night.

1709
01:41:56,400 --> 01:41:58,360
Speaker 2: You know. It's like, you know, what I really want

1710
01:41:58,400 --> 01:42:00,439
Speaker 2: to do is direct. No, what I would really want

1711
01:42:00,560 --> 01:42:05,040
Speaker 2: is late night for sure. Absolutely. I think there's more

1712
01:42:05,120 --> 01:42:08,479
Speaker 2: room in that space. And I think that if you

1713
01:42:08,560 --> 01:42:14,240
Speaker 2: mix comedy with kind of the the the interview long

1714
01:42:14,280 --> 01:42:18,920
Speaker 2: form interview concepts, Larry King, Oh, who's the guy who

1715
01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:20,800
Speaker 2: ended up taking off his pants in front of people?

1716
01:42:20,880 --> 01:42:26,759
Speaker 2: Charlie Rose, the name Charlie Rose, right, that kind of stuff,

1717
01:42:26,800 --> 01:42:29,519
Speaker 2: like I always wanted to do the longer form meets

1718
01:42:29,520 --> 01:42:33,080
Speaker 2: Playboy after dark with the cigar, with the bourbon, everything

1719
01:42:33,080 --> 01:42:35,280
Speaker 2: else and kind of get kind of get.

1720
01:42:35,080 --> 01:42:39,120
Speaker 4: Into it with with with all sorts of people.

1721
01:42:39,560 --> 01:42:41,599
Speaker 2: That's where I'd like to be a little more comedy,

1722
01:42:42,680 --> 01:42:45,080
Speaker 2: willing to be to laugh, kind of focus.

1723
01:42:45,120 --> 01:42:47,240
Speaker 4: I would say that's where i'd want to be, and

1724
01:42:47,280 --> 01:42:49,200
Speaker 4: I would show I'd absolutely want to want to do

1725
01:42:49,280 --> 01:42:50,120
Speaker 4: and still want to do.

1726
01:42:51,280 --> 01:42:53,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, there's a lot of people out there, and

1727
01:42:53,040 --> 01:42:55,200
Speaker 2: you could probably name one hundred people, you know what,

1728
01:42:55,240 --> 01:42:57,320
Speaker 2: maybe not one hundred. You can name five. You give

1729
01:42:57,360 --> 01:42:58,960
Speaker 2: it five minutes a thought, you'll come up with five

1730
01:42:59,000 --> 01:43:01,479
Speaker 2: people you listen to they'd be like, yep, they would

1731
01:43:01,479 --> 01:43:05,040
Speaker 2: do a great job. There's so much good talent out

1732
01:43:05,080 --> 01:43:07,080
Speaker 2: there that doesn't get the chance. And you say to me,

1733
01:43:07,080 --> 01:43:09,000
Speaker 2: who would want to be on CNN? And what I

1734
01:43:09,040 --> 01:43:11,400
Speaker 2: would say to you is, we don't know what CNN

1735
01:43:11,520 --> 01:43:15,120
Speaker 2: is going to be yet. We don't know.

1736
01:43:17,120 --> 01:43:18,000
Speaker 4: And with a new.

1737
01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:20,439
Speaker 2: Ownership, if you're going to lose these people, there's a

1738
01:43:20,520 --> 01:43:22,800
Speaker 2: chance to remake it into something. It doesn't have to

1739
01:43:22,840 --> 01:43:26,439
Speaker 2: be a conservative something, no, but it could offer up

1740
01:43:26,479 --> 01:43:30,120
Speaker 2: perspectives and ideas and thoughts and simply not be hateful

1741
01:43:31,439 --> 01:43:33,720
Speaker 2: maybe more to the point, and yes, hateful is a

1742
01:43:33,800 --> 01:43:34,439
Speaker 2: huge part of it.

1743
01:43:34,960 --> 01:43:40,240
Speaker 4: Not be so full of crap. CNN is full of garbage.

1744
01:43:40,840 --> 01:43:43,519
Speaker 2: They lie to themselves and they lie to us every

1745
01:43:43,560 --> 01:43:46,559
Speaker 2: single day about them not having a slant and not

1746
01:43:46,600 --> 01:43:51,040
Speaker 2: having a bias at least say so. My name's Tony Katz.

1747
01:43:51,080 --> 01:43:54,439
Speaker 2: I'm a conservative. I don't apologize for a damn thing.

1748
01:43:54,439 --> 01:43:56,439
Speaker 2: And if you don't like it, tell your mother to

1749
01:43:56,520 --> 01:43:59,680
Speaker 2: kiss off. I don't care. This is it.

1750
01:44:00,840 --> 01:44:02,960
Speaker 4: This is who I am, and this is what I'm doing.

1751
01:44:04,360 --> 01:44:06,800
Speaker 2: And if you want to give me Katari money to

1752
01:44:06,880 --> 01:44:10,400
Speaker 2: change my mind, I'm gonna say sorry. There are other

1753
01:44:10,479 --> 01:44:12,800
Speaker 2: guys out there that you might want to go to.

1754
01:44:14,479 --> 01:44:16,519
Speaker 2: This is it, this is the show I want to do.

1755
01:44:16,880 --> 01:44:19,000
Speaker 2: These are the conversations I want to have. This is

1756
01:44:19,040 --> 01:44:23,880
Speaker 2: how I want to engage. And I think that there's

1757
01:44:23,960 --> 01:44:27,800
Speaker 2: room for a whole bunch of stuff. I don't think

1758
01:44:27,840 --> 01:44:31,240
Speaker 2: that you have to not listen to other people, not

1759
01:44:31,320 --> 01:44:33,800
Speaker 2: engage with other people, But I sure sell don't want

1760
01:44:33,800 --> 01:44:36,200
Speaker 2: to engage with other people who are going to start with, well,

1761
01:44:36,200 --> 01:44:38,040
Speaker 2: you know Trump's a pedophile. No he's not.

1762
01:44:38,720 --> 01:44:41,280
Speaker 4: That's crap, and that's the stuff you dismiss.

1763
01:44:41,479 --> 01:44:43,759
Speaker 2: But people who might disagree with the policy of Trumpelly,

1764
01:44:43,960 --> 01:44:47,200
Speaker 2: I'll talk to them. Disagree with the policy of Israel,

1765
01:44:47,240 --> 01:44:52,000
Speaker 2: I talk to them too, Or England or France, which

1766
01:44:52,120 --> 01:44:57,040
Speaker 2: I disagree with many of their policies, specifically immigration policies.

1767
01:44:59,040 --> 01:45:01,439
Speaker 4: There's a great opportun tinnity here. Why would I say

1768
01:45:01,479 --> 01:45:02,000
Speaker 4: no to it?

1769
01:45:02,200 --> 01:45:06,000
Speaker 2: Why would anybody? We don't know what we're gonna get.

1770
01:45:06,720 --> 01:45:08,080
Speaker 4: That's my point about Kara Swisher.

1771
01:45:08,080 --> 01:45:09,639
Speaker 2: She doesn't know what she's gonna get, but she's already

1772
01:45:09,640 --> 01:45:14,160
Speaker 2: out the door, which means she knows what she's giving,

1773
01:45:15,000 --> 01:45:18,479
Speaker 2: and what she's giving isn't needed, what she's giving isn't good,

1774
01:45:19,080 --> 01:45:22,600
Speaker 2: what she's giving doesn't get ratings, and most importantly, what

1775
01:45:22,720 --> 01:45:27,080
Speaker 2: she's giving precludes the importance of honesty, which is what

1776
01:45:27,280 --> 01:45:32,000
Speaker 2: happens when you disagree with your own team. You gotta

1777
01:45:32,040 --> 01:45:35,479
Speaker 2: say so, and you see ann people won't do it.

1778
01:45:36,400 --> 01:45:40,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, let the takeover happen. Show these people the door,

1779
01:45:40,760 --> 01:45:45,280
Speaker 2: and no one is going to miss Kara Swisher. No one.

1780
01:45:45,640 --> 01:45:49,400
Speaker 2: Let me say it again, no one. I'm Tony Katz.

1781
01:45:49,400 --> 01:45:52,839
Speaker 2: This is Tony Katz today. So Meta is found guilty

1782
01:45:53,320 --> 01:45:58,080
Speaker 2: and has to pay three hundred and seventy five million

1783
01:45:58,160 --> 01:45:59,280
Speaker 2: dollars in fines.

1784
01:45:59,400 --> 01:46:01,599
Speaker 4: Tony Katz, Tony kats Today.

1785
01:46:02,240 --> 01:46:05,439
Speaker 2: The claim is that Meta failed to protect kids from

1786
01:46:05,479 --> 01:46:11,280
Speaker 2: sexual predators and misled users. They're appealing the case, but

1787
01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:13,040
Speaker 2: that's not the part I think we should pay attention to.

1788
01:46:13,080 --> 01:46:15,400
Speaker 2: All though we should see how the appeal goes. It's

1789
01:46:15,439 --> 01:46:18,479
Speaker 2: not a court was willing to say to a tech company,

1790
01:46:18,560 --> 01:46:23,120
Speaker 2: to a social media platform, you're not doing enough, which

1791
01:46:23,160 --> 01:46:26,040
Speaker 2: now leads to two things. Number one, What happens when

1792
01:46:26,080 --> 01:46:30,800
Speaker 2: they start doing enough? What gets curtailed? Does that mean

1793
01:46:30,840 --> 01:46:33,439
Speaker 2: your ability to speak gets curtailed? Does that mean the

1794
01:46:33,520 --> 01:46:36,720
Speaker 2: box and all the fake users suddenly go? And if

1795
01:46:36,760 --> 01:46:40,599
Speaker 2: they go, where is their money? Because don't they make

1796
01:46:40,640 --> 01:46:44,960
Speaker 2: a lot of money from that? This case, which isn't

1797
01:46:44,960 --> 01:46:48,120
Speaker 2: getting much play because of course everything happened with I

1798
01:46:48,160 --> 01:46:50,720
Speaker 2: Ran and oil prices and is there really going to

1799
01:46:50,760 --> 01:46:52,200
Speaker 2: be an end to this war? Who in the world

1800
01:46:52,240 --> 01:46:57,800
Speaker 2: could you possibly be negotiating with? This case has ramifications

1801
01:46:57,920 --> 01:47:01,200
Speaker 2: we don't even know yet. Does this cause smaller players

1802
01:47:01,240 --> 01:47:03,599
Speaker 2: to get out of the game? Does it require them

1803
01:47:03,600 --> 01:47:07,880
Speaker 2: to have less users? I'm telling you remember this because

1804
01:47:07,960 --> 01:47:10,480
Speaker 2: we're going to be hearing about this and it's reverberations

1805
01:47:11,320 --> 01:47:15,120
Speaker 2: for a while. Find everything at Tony kats dot com tomorrow. Everyone,

1806
01:47:15,240 --> 01:47:15,599
Speaker 2: take care
