1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: Hammer and Nigel do you believe these characters are weirdose? 2 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, Hammer said news to start the segment, six US 3 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:14,080 Speaker 2: crew members on a refueling tank or crashed after a 4 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 2: mid air collision with another aircraft, all confirmed dead. That 5 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 2: is the you know, that's going to bring the US 6 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 2: total kill in action during this war the past few 7 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 2: weeks to thirteen during Operation Epic Fury. Now, that's a 8 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 2: difficult maneuver from what I understand, if you're in the 9 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 2: Air Force or the Navy. Mid air refueling right. The 10 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,279 Speaker 2: other aircraft that was involved was able to land safely. 11 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 2: But this was just a disaster. It was over Iraq, 12 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 2: right right. 13 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,279 Speaker 3: And I know what the you know, Sentcom and the 14 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 3: Department of War and the Trump administration is going to say, 15 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 3: when there is going to be a war, there are 16 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 3: going to be casualties. I understand that. But it doesn't 17 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 3: make it any when you see those bodies coming back 18 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 3: in a casket and it's the dignified transfer and it's 19 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:10,839 Speaker 3: just a gut wrenching thing. That's somebody's son, that's somebody's daughter. 20 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 3: This was not a hostile act. This happened over friendly 21 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 3: conditions here, just a bad accident that took place, but 22 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 3: it doesn't make it any easier. Here is the Secretary 23 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 3: of War, Pete Hegseith. 24 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,639 Speaker 1: As the President warned, an effort of this scope will 25 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: include casualties, war as hell and always will be. A 26 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: grateful nation honors the Americans we have lost thus far 27 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: and those injured the absolute best of America. May we 28 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: prosecute the remainder of this operation in a manner that 29 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: honors them. No apologies, no hesitation, epic fury for them 30 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: and the thousands of Americans before them, taken too soon 31 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: by Iranian radicals. 32 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: That was a press conference earlier this morning from Pete Hegzif, 33 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 3: the Secretary of War, along with the Joint chiefs of Staff, 34 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 3: General Kine, and you may have heard in the news 35 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 3: at the top of the hour more troops on their 36 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 3: way to fight for this Fox News confirming the US 37 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 3: Defense Department is sending the USS Tripoli, a marine amphibious 38 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 3: ready Group, and the thirty first Marine Unit to the Mideast. 39 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: So you're looking at around twenty two hundred marines and 40 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 3: three of these big warships, the Tripoli, San Diego and 41 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 3: New Orleans, all on their way, along with some elite 42 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 3: maritime teams. 43 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 2: Does this count as boots on the ground or is 44 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: this all you know? They're on these ships off the 45 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 2: coast or in the water or whatever. 46 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 3: Feels like it's all ships on the water at this point. 47 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 3: But still that's some firepower coming in, big time. Deal. 48 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 3: Let's go back to that press conference early this morning, 49 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 3: because this was around eight am. And I do like 50 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 3: the fact that they've been having these press conferences. I 51 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 3: feel like we've been getting something out of these, unlike 52 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 3: a lot of press conferences where they just speak to speak. 53 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 3: Here a Secretary of War Pete hegseeth on the leadership 54 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 3: situation with Iran. 55 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: His leadership is in no better shape, desperate and hiding. 56 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: They've gone underground, cowering. That's what rats do we know? 57 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: The new so called not so supreme leader is wounded 58 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: and likely disfigured. Oh, he put on a statement yesterday 59 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: a week one actually, but there was no voice and 60 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: there was no video. It was a written statement. He 61 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: called for unity. Apparently, killing tens of thousands of protesters 62 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: is his kind of unity. Iran has plenty of cameras 63 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: and plenty of voice recorders. Why a written statement, I 64 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: think you know why his father dead. He's scared, and 65 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: he's injured, he's on the run, and he lacks legitimacy. 66 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: It's a mess for them. Who's in charge Iran may 67 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: not even know. With every passing hour, we know, and 68 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: we know they know that the military capabilities of their 69 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: evil regime are crumbling. 70 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 2: It'd be awesome if the new supreme leader is like 71 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 2: so disfigured it looks like the elephant man. 72 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 3: I would love that. 73 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 2: I'm not an animal of a human being. I'm a man. 74 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 3: You do a pretty solid elephant. I'm not gonna lie. 75 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 3: There are rumors that it's a coma situation. I've heard 76 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: rumors that maybe a limb has been blown off of 77 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 3: the new Ayatola of Rock and Roller. I don't know, 78 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 3: but uh, I'm in favor of the US doing what 79 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 3: needs to be done. I've already gotten a lecture and 80 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 3: been yelled at for hoping bad guys meet their maker, 81 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 3: so I probably better be careful what I say here. 82 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 2: Better tiptoe better. 83 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 3: Tiptoe of the line, because I don't want the management 84 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 3: staff to come in again and yell at me for 85 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 3: saying you can't wish death upon a bad person, but 86 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 3: I wouldn't shed a tear. Let's just say if we 87 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 3: found out the new Ayatola was not breathing oxygen. Here 88 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 3: is Secretary of War Pete Hegsath on Iran's military capabilities. 89 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: Iran has no air defenses, Iran has no air force, 90 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: Iran has no navy. Their missiles, their missile launchers, and 91 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 1: drones being destroyed or shot out of the sky. Their 92 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: missile volume is down ninety percent, they're one way attacked 93 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: drones yesterday down ninety five percent. And as the world 94 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: is seeing, they are exercising sheer desperation in the straits 95 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: of her moods, something we're dealing with. We have been 96 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: dealing with it and don't need to worry about it. 97 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: We're on planned to defeat, destroy, disable all of their 98 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 1: meaningful military capabilities at a pace the world has never 99 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: seen before. 100 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 3: So that's the update. We think they're later may be 101 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 3: maimed or disfigured and they don't have a pot to 102 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 3: pee in, but other than that, they're doing just fine. 103 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 3: And I love the fact they're not taking the foot 104 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 3: off the gas either. Today Nights was supposed to be 105 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 3: the day where it was a twenty percent increase increase 106 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 3: at the bombs being dropped on Iran. 107 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we're going to see a big weekend 108 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 2: ahead of us in those terms. For sure. 109 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 3: There's one more thing the Secretary of War did today 110 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 3: that kind of made me smile a little bit. Crapped 111 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 3: all over CNN Allison. 112 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 1: Or more fake news from CNN reports that the Trump 113 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 1: administration underestimated the Iran war's impact on the Street of 114 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: horm Moves patently ridiculous. Of course, for decades, Iran has 115 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: threatened shipping in the Street of horm Moves. This is 116 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: always what they do. Hold the straight hostage. CNN doesn't 117 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 1: think we thought of that. It's a fundamentally unserious report. 118 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 1: The sooner the Vian Ellison takes over that network the better. 119 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 3: So he's referencing the ownership change that may take place 120 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 3: with CNN. A lot of rumors that Allison would take over, 121 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 3: and he is looking to run it like an actual 122 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 3: business and not a propaganda machine, which may include firing 123 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 3: people like Abby Phillip or Jake Tapper or some of 124 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 3: the other captains of the USSA right. 125 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 2: Or putting guys like Scott Jennings in a main anchor 126 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 2: position in a featured primetime spot, either in the morning 127 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: or at nighttime. 128 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 3: Right and listen, it's not a Republican or Democrat thing. 129 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 3: It's let your big dogs eat. CNN doesn't have any 130 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 3: full time big dogs. You look at their primetime ratings. 131 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 3: They're getting beat by the two am rerun of Hannity. 132 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 3: The first show of CNN's primetime lineup comes in like 133 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 3: in the twenties in the ratings behind the one or 134 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 3: two o'clock in the morning rerun of Hannity's program pathetic. 135 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 3: They're really competing with ms NOW, right, because that's the 136 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 3: other liberal major player in cable news, and ms now 137 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 3: is dusting CNN, so they can't even be the anti 138 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 3: Trump people. Well, so something's got to change. General raising 139 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 3: Kine today announcing that there's going to be a lot 140 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 3: of bombings today. 141 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 4: Today will be our heaviest day of kinetic fires across 142 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 4: the operating area. SANCOM continues to attack ballistic missile and 143 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 4: drone capabilities so that they are no longer a threat 144 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 4: to US forces, our bases, or our partners. They're continuing 145 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,559 Speaker 4: to destroy the Iranian Navy to ensure freedom of navigation, 146 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 4: and this means going after Iran's mind, laying capability and 147 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 4: destroying their ability to attack commercial vessels, and we're targeting 148 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 4: their defense industrial base so they cannot rebuild the capabilities 149 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 4: that can harm America's interest or partners in the future. 150 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 3: So that was General Kine on what we can expect today. 151 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 3: Some bombings already taken place, a lot more still to come.
