And you say to me, Tony, 51 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 2: how do I know that name? How have I heard 52 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 2: that before? Wait, I'm not used to that. Does that 53 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: get shot off of an apache? Had to where does 54 00:03:54,480 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: that come from? It's a torpedo. Look out what's known 55 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 2: as the Iris Shahid Solimani with a torpedo, an MK 56 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 2: forty eight. This is a heavy torpedo. It is the 57 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 2: first sinking, according to the Secretary of Defense Secretary of 58 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 2: War Pete Hegseth of an enemy ship by a torpedo. 59 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 3: Since World War II. And for the record, the. 60 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 2: US Department of Defense putting the screen grabs out of 61 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 2: the sinking of this ship going down from what looks 62 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 2: like the periscope of the submarine. For all of the 63 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 2: issues with our navy, and there are many, because we 64 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 2: do not have enough ships. We need to be at 65 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 2: the three hundred and forty number, and we are not 66 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 2: doing a good job of it. And shipbuilding is incredibly important, 67 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 2: not just terry, but cargo and other ships. 68 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 3: We have an absolutely amazing submarine. 69 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 2: Force and we always have, I mean beyond good, beyond 70 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 2: concerning for the Russians and for the Chinese. The Russians 71 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 2: of course having their own submarines, we're that much better. 72 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: This is still a remarkable thing to witness the Secretary 73 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: saying the Iranian navy rests at the bottom of the 74 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 2: Persian Gulf. Combat ineffective, decimated, destroyed, defeated, pick your adjective. 75 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 2: And when you listen to the Secretary, when you listen 76 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 2: to some of his commentaries, you realize that he is 77 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 2: not having a conversation to be braggadocious. He's having a 78 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 2: conversation of pure propaganda. 79 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 5: Sure, Iran will still be able to shoot missiles and 80 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 5: still be able to launch one way attack drones at 81 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 5: civilian targets, and their proxies will attempt to attack our embassies, 82 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 5: bases and soft targets. They are terrorists after all, and 83 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 5: they need to target civilians because they can't fight toe 84 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 5: to toe. But we will find them and we will 85 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 5: kill them. 86 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 6: This is what the fake news misses. 87 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 5: We've taken control of Iran's airspace and waterways without boots 88 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 5: on the ground. 89 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 6: We control their fate. 90 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 5: But when a few drones get through or tragic things happen, 91 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 5: it's front page news. 92 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 3: I get it. 93 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 5: The press only wants to make the president look bad, 94 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 5: but try for once to report the reality. The terms 95 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 5: of this war will be set by us at every step. 96 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 2: That is not for the American media, although I would 97 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 2: say that that Heck Says believes that about the American media. 98 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 2: This is about the IRGC, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, 99 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 2: and reminding them. 100 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 3: That they've lost. 101 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 2: We control your fate, we control everything, We are in 102 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 2: charge all of the rest. 103 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 3: That's what it's about. 104 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 2: It is about letting them know that no matter what, 105 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 2: no matter what, we've got you and there is nothing, nothing, nothing, 106 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 2: you can do about it. This is we are now 107 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 2: into the propaganda part of this war, which is well, 108 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 2: always a part of war. It's always a part of 109 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: the conversation. No one should be surprised by it. Now, 110 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 2: President Trump, as it reports, go weighing backing armed groups 111 00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: to force out the Iranian regime. One of the things 112 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 2: that we've talked about guys repeatedly was that the the 113 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: the success can only happen if the IRGC is cracked. 114 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 2: So you want to make them feel desperate. You want 115 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 2: to make them feel like all is lost. You want 116 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 2: to make them feel like there's there's no possibility for them, 117 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 2: there's no there's no future here. It's all done, it's 118 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 2: all finished. It's it's just a matter of time. Break 119 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 2: their will, right, we can all see that. But as 120 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 2: we've discussed, you're not going to have this fight be done. 121 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:43,839 Speaker 3: You can talk about the airways and the. 122 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: Waterway, Secretary Hanks out, but it isn't done until the 123 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 2: IRGC is broken and the people are then able. 124 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 3: To take their their government. 125 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 2: And for the record, I favor the Iranian people choosing 126 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: their own path, not have the Ayatola, not having these malas, 127 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 2: not having to live under these Islamists. 128 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 3: And I think the. 129 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 2: People who are somehow in favor of the Islamists pretty 130 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 2: disgusting and pretty stupid. 131 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 3: You want to hate America, No one cares. 132 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 2: You want the Iranian people to actually live under a 133 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 2: ruthless Islamist regime. You're disgusting, You're gross, you are obscene, 134 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 2: you are broken. 135 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 3: There's no respect at all to. 136 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: Have for these people, and certainly I'm not about to 137 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 2: have any and neither and neither should you. 138 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 3: But you have to get rid of the IRGC. 139 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 2: So now what we're hearing is that Trump is willing 140 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 2: to support groups inside Iran that would take up arms 141 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: against the weaken government. 142 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 3: Now this brings us to letters of. 143 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 2: Mark, letters of market reprisal. Letters of marketing reprisal is 144 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 2: the ability to hire those who you need to do 145 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 2: certain levels of work, and that work is can be 146 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 2: pretty intense. That work can be pretty aggressive. So this 147 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 2: is nothing new, absolutely nothing new that there could be 148 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 2: some type of force on the ground that isn't made 149 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 2: up of American boots. I'm fine with this. We have 150 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 2: a history of this. This is not we have the history, 151 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 2: i should say, of being able to do this. 152 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,199 Speaker 3: This is not a shock at all. 153 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 2: But as we see, as we have discussed, you cannot 154 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 2: have the success until you take out the IRGC. But 155 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: what is happening now, what is going on now is 156 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 2: we are in the propaganda part of this campaign.

Although the market, you know, 177 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 2: at like midday was up. 178 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 3: Over three hundred points, remember it was. 179 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 2: Down twelve hundred at one point, It was down twelve 180 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: hundred points at one point yesterday and close four hundred down. 181 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 2: And then what do you see today? See the market up? 182 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 2: What do you see from barrel prices of oil? You 183 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 2: see it down a little. It doesn't mean that everything's 184 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 2: gonna work out great. It doesn't mean it's gonna work 185 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 2: out smooth, and so some rough spots ahead. It means 186 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: the initial is over and the market right now says, okay, 187 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 2: this might be a little bit of new normal for 188 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 2: a while. We'll see how it settles out. But clearly, 189 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 2: even with Iran's ability to still shoot missiles and do 190 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 2: some damage here, do some damage there, the United States does, 191 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 2: and this is the world belief does have this well 192 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 2: in hand. Israel does have this well in hand. The 193 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 2: quicker this is done, the quicker the regime is broken. 194 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 2: The quicker the people of Iran are leading themselves to 195 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 2: a better life, the better for everybody. I'm hoping for quick. 196 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Katz today. For people 197 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 2: who pay taxes, you know, because just because you haven't 198 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:03,119 Speaker 2: become as citizen doesn't mean you're not paying. 199 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 7: Tax Actually, most undocumented immigrants pay more taxes than anyone 200 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 7: and we should also mention that less than they're five 201 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 7: times less likely to commit crimes than Americans. 202 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 2: Great, keep saying that, keep saying that. The view like 203 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 2: it's an argument. A Virginia mother was stabbed to death 204 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 2: at a bus stop in Fairfax County. Tony Katz, Tony 205 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 2: Katz today, good. 206 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 3: To be with you. 207 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 2: Forty one year old mother, Stephanie Minter, was found inside 208 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 2: a bus stop multiple stab wounds, pronounced dead. 209 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 3: At the scene. 210 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: They review the surveillance footage and they identify a suspect, 211 00:14:53,920 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 2: a thirty two year old, a Sierra Leone national who 212 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 2: entered the US illegally and had a lengthy arrest history. 213 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 2: Why don't Sonny host In and Whoopy Goldberg now try 214 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 2: and have the same conversation. Go ahead, bring us this 215 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 2: same bull crap, nonsense story.

You're okay 217 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 2: with women being stabbed on light rails like Arena Sarutska. 218 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 2: You're okay with women being stabbed at bus stops. You're 219 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 2: okay with women who are out for a jog getting 220 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 2: beaten to death and their skull crushed in by a rock. 221 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 2: That's Lakenriley. Of course, you're okay with it. What are 222 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 2: you gonna tell me you're not okay with it? Go ahead, 223 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 2: scream yell, complain, Say how dare you? How dare you? 224 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 3: Sonny? We get it. 225 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 2: You think you're above it all. You really think you're smart. 226 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 2: No one else thinks this. Here's what we think that 227 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 2: I can stop. You could stop Sonny hosting Whoopee Goldberg. 228 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 2: We could stop one hundred percent, one hundred percent of 229 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 2: illegal alien crime by removing all the illegal aliens. 230 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 3: Fact, there is no questioning my math. 231 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 2: My argument is sound and complete. If you want to 232 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 2: do this math, it's a weird math that you know, 233 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 2: illegal immigrants commit less crimes than Americans. They're less illegal 234 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 2: immigrants in the country than Americans. So what are we 235 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 2: talking about here? Percentages they commit this percentage of crime, 236 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 2: Americans commit this percentage of crime. I'm not saying that's 237 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 2: good that Americans are committing crimes, but they are American citizens, 238 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: and they have rights, and they live here. Illegal immigrants 239 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 2: should not be here, and we could stop all the crime. 240 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,840 Speaker 2: And I now have at least two women who could 241 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 2: be alive, and a third woman would be alive if 242 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: prosecuted is actually prosecuted. That's Arena Sarutska. Their argument is nonsense, 243 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 2: and it is up to us to not only to 244 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 2: remember their names, but to be discussing this every day, 245 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 2: because normally the conversation goes, moms, your kids are not 246 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 2: safe in these cities where progressives run things, if progressives 247 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 2: have their way, Look what the Biden administration did, you know? 248 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 2: I was on Newsmax earlier today and what I said 249 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 2: was is that when you take a look at the 250 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 2: massive illegal immigration that the Biden administration allowed, they were. 251 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 3: Either trying to suicide the country or murder the country. 252 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 2: And I've seen other people talk about this before, and 253 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 2: I think it's the right argument. You could decide whether 254 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 2: it was trying to suicide the country or murder the country. 255 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 2: But that's what they did, proactively keeping borders open, allowing 256 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 2: people into the country. 257 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 3: She'd never been in the country. 258 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 2: They put American lives in danger, they put other lives 259 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 2: in danger. 260 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 3: They're the ones with blood on their hands. 261 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 2: Joe Biden might be enjoying retirement, but his hands are bloody. 262 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 3: He did this. He's guilty. 263 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 2: Joe Biden is guilty, The administration is guilty. Kamala Harris 264 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 2: is guilty. They did this. Now you could say to me, hey, Tony, 265 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 2: other administrations didn't do a good job at the border, 266 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 2: and we will agree. 267 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 3: A lot of people with a lot of blood on 268 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 3: their hands. 269 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,199 Speaker 2: I am saying for the four years of Joe Biden 270 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 2: it was purposeful. Only in the last six months did 271 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 2: get a little bit better, because after all, there. 272 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 3: Was an election to lose. 273 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: They did this purposefully, and it's up to us to 274 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 2: clean up the mess. The arguments for people like Sunny 275 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 2: Houstin and Whoopy Goldberg are daft, ignorant, foolhardy arguments meant 276 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 2: to make liberal white women. 277 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:04,719 Speaker 3: Clap like circus seals. 278 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 2: That's it, but white women, liberal white women clapping like 279 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 2: circus seals is not a policy. It's nonsense. It's not smart, 280 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 2: it's not bright. And I'm sorry if liberal white women 281 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 2: are offended. But right now you're a serious problem if 282 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 2: you're not in favor of removing illegal immigrants and keeping 283 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 2: yourself safe. Usually it's about keeping your kids safe. This 284 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 2: is about you, mom. When do you start giving a 285 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 2: damn about you? And why do I care more about 286 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 2: you than you care about you? 287 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 3: That seems silly, but I do, and I wish you 288 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 3: cared more. This is Tony kash today, and he knew. 289 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 8: Full well and evidence indicated by his own admission that 290 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 8: there was not operational control of the border. My question 291 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 8: for you, Madam Secretary, is do you believe that many 292 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 8: of the victims behind you represented behind you and the 293 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 8: thousands of others of victims federal poisonings otherwise, would have 294 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 8: been alive today if the policies of the current administration 295 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 8: had been in place and enforce under the previous administration 296 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 8: under Biden. 297 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 9: In my organs, I do, sir, I believe that many 298 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 9: of these victims of their situations were preventable. 299 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 3: They didn't have to happen. 300 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 8: And this direct assault by my college on the other 301 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 8: side of the aisle on Ice, right, is this not 302 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 8: an environment created significantly by they themselves. When you have 303 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 8: the Minnesota governor calling ICE enforcement the modern day gestapo, 304 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 8: you have the Minneapolis mayor saying telling Ice to get 305 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 8: the f out of Minneapolis. When you have the Illinois 306 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 8: governor claiming the United States is essentially becoming Nazi Germany. 307 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 8: When you have a House Minority leader Jeffaries calling for 308 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 8: people to quote fight President Trump's enforcement agenda in the 309 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 8: streets end quote, does that not create the environment that 310 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 8: they decry right now? Undermining ICE and endangering citizens, the 311 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 8: various citizens you have behind me who expect us to 312 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 8: do our job and secure the order and secure our communities. 313 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:08,360 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's I can't believe the way that they abuse 314 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 9: these law enforcement officers who take an oath to go 315 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 9: out and to protect this country and put their lives 316 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 9: on the line, and many times live in these communities 317 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 9: they live. 318 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 2: That is Congressman Jip Roy asking questions the Secretary of 319 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 2: Christy Nome as she is testifying in front of House 320 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 2: Judiciary talking about oversight. 321 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 3: Me.

Legit question?

Now, 683 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:10,359 Speaker 2: those numbers came out before the hit on Iran, and 684 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 2: what you are now going to see is the unfavorables 685 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 2: climb back. It's not even a question. You see this 686 00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,320 Speaker 2: over in a couple of weeks and the regime gone 687 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:30,360 Speaker 2: see even more favorables. I mean, we should all be 688 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 2: perfectly clear that you make a move like this as 689 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 2: you head towards a midterm where Republicans are behind the 690 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 2: eight ball anyway, because of traditional movement, in how people 691 00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:50,880 Speaker 2: vote and in engaging this. This attack on the Iranian 692 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 2: regime is fraught, but it's the right thing to do. 693 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 2: So it's a conversation of leadership over political expediency. And 694 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 2: I think that's a way Republicans need to engage it 695 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 2: because it happens to be accurate. 696 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:09,320 Speaker 3: But it is fraught. A lot can go wrong, a lot. 697 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 2: Now you've already killed the Ayatota, You've already been able 698 00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,280 Speaker 2: to destroy a large amount of their leadership. A lot's 699 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:19,759 Speaker 2: gone in your favor. Well, right now we have six 700 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 2: dead Americans and it's horrifying. Agreed, But you don't spend 701 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,880 Speaker 2: your days counting like that. That's how the left is 702 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:30,560 Speaker 2: going to do it. What is the better tomorrow? What's 703 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 2: the better future? If there's anything the administration needs to sell, 704 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 2: it's that and a future that has a terrorist not 705 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:39,719 Speaker 2: being paid to be terrorists. 706 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 3: That's a better future for me and for you, and 707 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 3: for the left and for the. 708 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 2: Progressives and for those COMMI low lifes whether they know 709 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 2: it or not, but they're commies. 710 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 3: I mean, what actually do they know? I'm Tony Katz, 711 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 3: this is Tony Katz Today. 712 00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 14: They can't death to America fund other radical terrorists who 713 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 14: attack our country and are seeking to destroy Western civilization itself. 714 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 14: These terrorists seized our embassy and took sixty six Americans 715 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 14: hostage in Tehran. They slaughtered two hundred and forty one 716 00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 14: US service members with a truck bombing in Beirut. They 717 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 14: killed and maimed hundreds of American service members in Iraq. 718 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,280 Speaker 14: And this is just a small fraction of their blood 719 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 14: soaked record. Prior leaders have been too weak and ineffective 720 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:34,959 Speaker 14: to address this threat. Some like Barack Hussein Obama even 721 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 14: sent palettes of cash that ultimately financed this terrorist crusade 722 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:43,840 Speaker 14: against the United States and our people, while signing stupid 723 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 14: and naive deals that put Iran on the path of 724 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 14: developing nuclear bombs. After years of endless appeasement and empty 725 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 14: statements from politicians on both sides of the political isle, 726 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 14: in this town, President Trump is finally the man of action. 727 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 3: That is Caroline Levitt. 728 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 2: This is the White House Press briefing happening as we speak. 729 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 2: Tony Katz, Tony Kats to say, good to be with you. 730 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:07,840 Speaker 2: Let me bring it back to Caroline. 731 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 3: Levitt of Americans. 732 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 14: We'll look to this moment as the moment where the 733 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 14: specter of a nuclear arm irand armed Iran ended. At 734 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 14: the beginning of Operation Epic Fury, launched last weekend, President 735 00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 14: Trump laid out clear objectives to the American people on 736 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 14: what the US military seeks to accomplish through these major 737 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:32,720 Speaker 14: combat operations. Number one, destroy the regime's deadly ballistic missiles 738 00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:36,839 Speaker 14: and completely raise their missile industry to the ground. Number two, 739 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 14: annihilate the Iranian regimes navy, and so far we have 740 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:45,239 Speaker 14: destroyed more than twenty Iranian ships, including their top submarine. 741 00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 11: Last night using a torpedo. 742 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 14: For the first time since World War II, there is 743 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 14: not a single Iranian ship underway and the Arabian. 744 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 11: Gulf Straight of Hermus or the Gulf of Oman. 745 00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 14: Number three, Operation Epic Fury will ensure the regime's terrorist 746 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 14: proxies in the region can no longer destabilize the region 747 00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 14: or the Free world and attack our armed forces, and 748 00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:11,760 Speaker 14: thus far Iran's proxies are hardly putting up a fight. 749 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 14: Number four, This mission will guarantee that Iran can never 750 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 14: obtain a nuclear weapon. It's safe to say that thus far, 751 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 14: Operation Epic Fury has been a resounding success, American forces 752 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:28,880 Speaker 14: have struck more than two thousand targets, destroying hundreds and 753 00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:33,080 Speaker 14: hundreds of ballistic missiles, launchers, and drones. As the Department 754 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 14: of War said this morning, we expect to have complete 755 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,920 Speaker 14: and total dominance over Iranian airspace in the. 756 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:41,880 Speaker 11: Coming hours, clearing the skies for our brave. 757 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:46,400 Speaker 14: Warriors to continue achieving these noble and long sought after objectives. 758 00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 2: So we now know what the purpose of this press 759 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,879 Speaker 2: briefing was from the America, be sure to set the 760 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,879 Speaker 2: goals and the parameters for why we are there and 761 00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 2: what we're trying to achieve. That's what Caroline Levitt just did. 762 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:03,080 Speaker 2: There will it take? That's a different conversation nuclear sites. 763 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,840 Speaker 14: Yet, the terrorist Iranian regime has remained fully committed to 764 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 14: rebuilding its nuclear program. 765 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:12,719 Speaker 11: How do we know this? Because Iran has pursued this path. 766 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:16,239 Speaker 14: Of war and violence despite President Trump dispatching two of 767 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:20,360 Speaker 14: his top and most trusted negotiators to engage in exhaustive 768 00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:23,760 Speaker 14: and good faith negotiations to try and reach a deal. 769 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 11: And the world knows this. 770 00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,719 Speaker 14: President's preference is always peace and diplomacy. 771 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 3: First. 772 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 14: Look no further than the eight additional global conflicts he. 773 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:35,800 Speaker 11: Has ended in the past year as proof. 774 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:41,320 Speaker 14: Unfortunately, the terrorist Iranian regime refused to negotiate in good faith. 775 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 14: They chose this path of violence and destruction, and they 776 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,960 Speaker 14: are reaping the consequences of their horrible decision. 777 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,799 Speaker 3: The regime did what they always have done. 778 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:54,200 Speaker 14: They'd lied, They delayed, They tried to string the United 779 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 14: States of America along. They wanted to buy themselves time 780 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:01,520 Speaker 14: to continue building ballistic missiles and other deadly weaponry that 781 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 14: could harm our US personnelit and troops in the region, 782 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:10,240 Speaker 14: and to continue aggressively pursuing their unacceptable nuclear ambitions. US 783 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:14,239 Speaker 14: negotiators offered to lift crippling sanctions on Iran and even 784 00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:18,000 Speaker 14: provide nuclear fuel to Iran at no cost to support 785 00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 14: a civil nuclear power program. They additionally had the opportunity 786 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 14: to accept US support as an investor in potential projects 787 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:30,360 Speaker 14: to develop peaceful nuclear energy together under a mutually agreed 788 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 14: upon framework. Yet in response, Iran would have to forfeit 789 00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:36,799 Speaker 14: their enrichment capacity once and for all. 790 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:38,600 Speaker 3: But Iran rejected. 791 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:42,600 Speaker 14: They accepted none of these generous and unprecedented offers by 792 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:43,600 Speaker 14: the United States. 793 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:45,360 Speaker 3: Simply put, they. 794 00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 14: Refuse to say yes to peace and their refusal made 795 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:52,280 Speaker 14: clear that their number one priority was building a nuclear 796 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:56,840 Speaker 14: weapon with which to threaten the United States of America, again, 797 00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 14: the country they have been chanting death to for uarly 798 00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 14: five decades. 799 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 11: Let me state this. 800 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 14: Again clearly, Iran rejected the path of peace because the 801 00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:09,000 Speaker 14: terrorist in charge of this regime wanted to build nuclear 802 00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:14,000 Speaker 14: weapons to use against Americans and our allies. President Trump 803 00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 14: made the determination, a courageous determination and decision. 804 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,239 Speaker 11: That the path the United States. 805 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 14: Was on with Iran had only one outcome, massive death 806 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:27,760 Speaker 14: and destruction at the hands of a nuclear armed terroristic regime. 807 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:31,160 Speaker 14: That path of death and destruction and threats against the 808 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:36,560 Speaker 14: American people have ended with Operation Epic Fury. Operation Epic 809 00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:39,360 Speaker 14: Fury has forged a new path that will better ensure 810 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,240 Speaker 14: the security of the United States and our people. 811 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:44,879 Speaker 2: I'm in favor of it, but this is the wrong 812 00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:49,080 Speaker 2: way to talk. It's not done. Don't do mission accomplished stuff. 813 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,200 Speaker 2: We saw this from George Bush. It was a mistake. 814 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 2: Stop making the mistakes. Don't be stupid people. We are fighting. 815 00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:59,879 Speaker 2: We will fight until it is over. We will fight 816 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:03,719 Speaker 2: until we win. We will win. We will stay at it. 817 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 2: This President is committed our military is the best trained, 818 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:09,000 Speaker 2: and that's that that's the way. 819 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:12,399 Speaker 14: You handle this who possessed the most sophisticated capabilities this 820 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 14: world has ever known. Forty nine incounting of the most 821 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:20,240 Speaker 14: senior Iranian regime leaders, including the Supreme Leader, have already 822 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:23,720 Speaker 14: been wiped off the face of the earth. Make no mistake, 823 00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 14: killing these brutalists, brutal terrorists is good for America and 824 00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:31,799 Speaker 14: makes the world a much safer place. I want to 825 00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 14: also extend our prayers and condolences to the families of 826 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:38,200 Speaker 14: the six US military service members who have been lost 827 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 14: in Operation Epic Fury. These heroes represent the very best 828 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,520 Speaker 14: among us. They laid down their lives in defense of 829 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:49,000 Speaker 14: our country, and we will never forget their legacy or 830 00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 14: their sacrifice. As the President said, we grieve for these 831 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,920 Speaker 14: American patriots and their families as we continue the righteous 832 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:56,919 Speaker 14: mission for. 833 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 11: Which they gave their lives. 834 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:01,920 Speaker 14: President Trump intends to attend the dignified transfer of these 835 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:06,200 Speaker 14: American heroes to stand in grief alongside their families. I 836 00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:09,480 Speaker 14: understand the Department of War is working on scheduling this transfer, 837 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:13,040 Speaker 14: and we will provide updates at the appropriate time.

We gave notices 963 00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 14: to leave immediately the countries where these Americans were within, 964 00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:56,400 Speaker 14: and unlike the previous administration, we actually have a number. 965 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:59,640 Speaker 14: We actually have identified the number of people in the 966 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,480 Speaker 14: region and who have requested help. We are in direct 967 01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:05,000 Speaker 14: contact and engagement with them. And you have to keep 968 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:07,880 Speaker 14: in mind there's a few thousand people who have requested 969 01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:10,880 Speaker 14: assistance to come home in comparison to the millions who 970 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:13,760 Speaker 14: we understand are in the region. So we will help 971 01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 14: every single American who wants to come home if they're 972 01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:18,320 Speaker 14: making that request of the State Department. 973 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 16: Americans who call the State Deverment hotline as recently as 974 01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:24,960 Speaker 16: last night, we're being told we can't help you. 975 01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 11: You have to make your own plans. 976 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:29,360 Speaker 14: Well, the line was updated, and I expect every single 977 01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 14: person in this room to report on that accurately so 978 01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:35,560 Speaker 14: that information can be relayed appropriately to your audiences and 979 01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,120 Speaker 14: to the American people. I think as journalists, you all 980 01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 14: have a responsibility to let them know that the line 981 01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 14: has been updated accordingly with the proper guidance, because I 982 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:46,080 Speaker 14: saw many people in this room very quick to do 983 01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 14: selfie videos with the line yesterday, but not so quick 984 01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:51,800 Speaker 14: to report on the corrected message today. So that is 985 01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 14: something the administration quickly worked to address, and we have 986 01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 14: fixed that problem. However, we're also pointing to people to 987 01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:01,360 Speaker 14: the website again to register so that we know exactly 988 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 14: where you are, so when there are commercial flights moving 989 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:07,800 Speaker 14: into that area, when there are chartered flights moving into 990 01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:09,560 Speaker 14: that area, we can get Americans on planes. 991 01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:12,120 Speaker 2: As it breaks us down a little bit, the argument 992 01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 2: being made by the leftist press corps is we can't 993 01:01:15,520 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 2: fault you. We can't go after how you're handling taking 994 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:28,919 Speaker 2: out the Iranian regime. So let's go at you on this. 995 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:33,400 Speaker 2: People are still out there now. If you had given 996 01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:36,480 Speaker 2: the warning, you would have given the warning to Iran. 997 01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:42,800 Speaker 2: If you had made other moves, you might have given 998 01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:49,040 Speaker 2: them too much information. I don't disagree that you've got 999 01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 2: people out there, American citizens out there. But if the 1000 01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:56,160 Speaker 2: argument is, hey, register here, register there, we're coming to 1001 01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,320 Speaker 2: get you. We've got the flights, we'll coordinate this, we'll 1002 01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 2: do that good. What the left is doing is trying 1003 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 2: to figure out where their angle is. That was not 1004 01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 2: a comparing it to Afghanistan, not an honest question at all. 1005 01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:17,760 Speaker 14: Eliminate Auran's ballistic missile threat, destroy their naval capability, distrupt 1006 01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:21,720 Speaker 14: missile and jone production infrastructure, sever their pathway, and end 1007 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:23,960 Speaker 14: their pathway to nuclear weapons. 1008 01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:26,280 Speaker 11: And I can report, as you all saw from. 1009 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 14: The Pentagon today, that thus far this operation has been 1010 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 14: remarkably successful. Again, we're moving towards complete and total control 1011 01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:37,600 Speaker 14: of Iranian airspace. We have continuous twenty four to seven 1012 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:42,200 Speaker 14: strike operations ongoing. We've had more than two thousand targets 1013 01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 14: that have been struck. Nearly two thousand munitions have been employed. 1014 01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 14: The first twenty four hours of this campaign were described 1015 01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,240 Speaker 14: nearly as twice the scale of the two thousand and 1016 01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:53,240 Speaker 14: three Shock in Awe campaign. 1017 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:57,240 Speaker 11: And we've seen that our the enemy, the Iranian. 1018 01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:03,160 Speaker 14: Rogue regime, talatory strikes against the United States, and the 1019 01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:06,400 Speaker 14: threat reduction has reduced significantly. If you look at the 1020 01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:10,439 Speaker 14: Iranian ballistic missile launches, they're down eighty six percent from 1021 01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:11,440 Speaker 14: day one levels. 1022 01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 2: We should be clear, they still are able to launch, 1023 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,680 Speaker 2: and they still are doing damage in places. 1024 01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:18,919 Speaker 3: They still are a gene taking place. 1025 01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:22,480 Speaker 11: They are weakening day by day, and that is good. 1026 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 3: That they're weakening day by day. 1027 01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:28,640 Speaker 2: That is not necessarily proof of they can't do anything else. 1028 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:31,640 Speaker 3: They did just President. 1029 01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 2: Shooting at Turkey, which is certifiably insane. 1030 01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:38,240 Speaker 3: Terrorists of the Iranians. Hell they've been and I even 1031 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 3: know where they're shooting to. 1032 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:40,600 Speaker 11: It's taking out a terrorist. 1033 01:03:40,760 --> 01:03:42,520 Speaker 2: What is what is this idea that we would have 1034 01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:44,600 Speaker 2: that somehow they really are aware of what they're doing, 1035 01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:46,480 Speaker 2: point that you're just having the skill set. 1036 01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:50,360 Speaker 18: In the States wouldn't mind seeing that the government overthrown. Certainly, 1037 01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:53,280 Speaker 18: President Trump has talked about wanting to see Iranians overthrow 1038 01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,520 Speaker 18: of the government. As a president considered it all kind 1039 01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:59,120 Speaker 18: of how he views a US role, if any, in 1040 01:03:59,160 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 18: Iran post home. 1041 01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:03,000 Speaker 14: I think it's something the President is actively considering and 1042 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:07,040 Speaker 14: discussing with his advisors and his national security team. But again, 1043 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:10,240 Speaker 14: right now, the focus, minute by minute, hour by hour, 1044 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:14,000 Speaker 14: day by day is on ensuring the quick and effective 1045 01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:15,840 Speaker 14: success of Operation Epic Furity. 1046 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:20,440 Speaker 3: Sure, go ahead, you got the US munition stop. I 1047 01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:24,640 Speaker 3: don't even know who speak because I question I. 1048 01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:26,600 Speaker 11: Want to ask you about the US munitions dot file. 1049 01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:28,800 Speaker 3: President Trump posted on your social. 1050 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:30,680 Speaker 19: On Monday that the US still has a good supply 1051 01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:34,000 Speaker 19: of weapons, but that we still we're not where we 1052 01:04:34,040 --> 01:04:34,480 Speaker 19: need to be. 1053 01:04:35,160 --> 01:04:36,160 Speaker 3: What does he mean by that? 1054 01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:39,800 Speaker 19: And does President Trump then want to ask on Congress 1055 01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:44,520 Speaker 19: to pass the supplemental to increase funding for missile interceptor 1056 01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:46,920 Speaker 19: systems like the ones being used to defend US bass 1057 01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:49,640 Speaker 19: in the Middle East from Iranian missiles. 1058 01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:52,520 Speaker 14: I don't have any updates for you on congressional asks 1059 01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:54,520 Speaker 14: from the President. As you know, under this president, we 1060 01:04:54,600 --> 01:04:57,480 Speaker 14: have significantly increased our defense budget, which is a good 1061 01:04:57,520 --> 01:04:59,200 Speaker 14: thing for the United States for. 1062 01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:01,520 Speaker 11: Our national security and for protecting our homeland. 1063 01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:05,280 Speaker 14: With respect to munitions, ammunition, weapon stock piles, the United 1064 01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 14: States of America has more than enough capability to not 1065 01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 14: only successfully execute Operation Epic Fury, but to go much further. 1066 01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:16,680 Speaker 14: And we have weapons stockpiles in places that many people 1067 01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:19,400 Speaker 14: in this world don't even know about. However, the President 1068 01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:22,280 Speaker 14: in that post was pointing out that unfortunately, we had 1069 01:05:22,280 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 14: a very stupid and incompetent leader in this White House 1070 01:05:25,120 --> 01:05:27,920 Speaker 14: for four years who gave away many of our best 1071 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:31,320 Speaker 14: weapons for nothing, for free to another country very far away, 1072 01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:33,760 Speaker 14: by the name of Ukraine. So the President was pointing 1073 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 14: out how that was a nonwise decision. But nevertheless, don't 1074 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 14: doubt the strength in the might of the American military. 1075 01:05:40,040 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 14: And I will also add President Trump has rightfully been 1076 01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:46,520 Speaker 14: calling on defense contractors in this country to rapidly and 1077 01:05:46,560 --> 01:05:49,920 Speaker 14: aggressively produce American made weapons because they are the best 1078 01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:53,320 Speaker 14: in the world. And the President always likes to get 1079 01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:55,600 Speaker 14: things done as quickly as possible, and so he's been 1080 01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:58,200 Speaker 14: quite vocal in his efforts to try to speed up 1081 01:05:58,240 --> 01:05:59,040 Speaker 14: our defense industry. 1082 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:01,920 Speaker 2: I heard this early, and I said, this is the 1083 01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:04,320 Speaker 2: craziest conversation. I ever heard the idea that we don't 1084 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 2: have enough ammunition is insane. I'm like, this, is this 1085 01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:11,640 Speaker 2: a leftist talking point that somehow we don't have enough 1086 01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:15,160 Speaker 2: ammunition to have this fight? Because if we don't, I say, 1087 01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:17,760 Speaker 2: let's make sure we don't ever fund Planned Parenthood again. 1088 01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:22,000 Speaker 2: Let's find a good ten to fifteen leftist programs and 1089 01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:23,800 Speaker 2: stop the funding of them to make sure we've got 1090 01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:27,800 Speaker 2: enough bullets. You always have to have enough bullets. Bullets first, 1091 01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:32,080 Speaker 2: that's what you need to have. And if we're gonna 1092 01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:33,480 Speaker 2: have a question now, but whether or not we've got 1093 01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:36,240 Speaker 2: enough bullets, we need to go get some bullets. So 1094 01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:40,320 Speaker 2: a couple programs, lefty programs, gotta go, gotta go. Let 1095 01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:42,280 Speaker 2: me bring it back to Caroline Levett real quick. 1096 01:06:42,280 --> 01:06:44,720 Speaker 6: In the United States air strike at girls at elementary 1097 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:46,800 Speaker 6: school and kill one hundred and seventy five people. 1098 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:48,000 Speaker 3: Not that we know of. 1099 01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:51,600 Speaker 14: Sean and the Department of War is investigating this matter. 1100 01:06:51,680 --> 01:06:53,920 Speaker 14: And I would just tell you very strongly, the United 1101 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:57,280 Speaker 14: States of America does not target civilians, unlike the rogue 1102 01:06:57,280 --> 01:07:01,800 Speaker 14: Iranian regime that targets civilians, kills children, that has killed 1103 01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:04,600 Speaker 14: thousands of their own people in the past several weeks 1104 01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:08,880 Speaker 14: and uses propaganda quite effectively, and unfortunately many people in 1105 01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:11,480 Speaker 14: this room have fallen for that propaganda. So I would 1106 01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:14,240 Speaker 14: caution you from pointing the finger at the United States 1107 01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:17,040 Speaker 14: of America when it comes to targeting civilians, because that's 1108 01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:17,959 Speaker 14: the idea. 1109 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,160 Speaker 2: That the school was targeted by the US or Israel. 1110 01:07:20,240 --> 01:07:24,040 Speaker 2: The other reports were it was an Iranian missile that misfired. 1111 01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,560 Speaker 2: I'll wait for the investigations to take place. We've got 1112 01:07:27,560 --> 01:07:30,480 Speaker 2: more from the press briefing, and Caroline Levit keep it here. 1113 01:07:30,640 --> 01:07:31,880 Speaker 3: This is Tony Katz today. 1114 01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:36,360 Speaker 20: Would that happen in conjunction with court or subsequent two? 1115 01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:40,200 Speaker 14: That is something that is definitely underway, and of course 1116 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:40,520 Speaker 14: we're going. 1117 01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 3: To use that. 1118 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:42,960 Speaker 2: And I think the questions about how are you getting 1119 01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:45,760 Speaker 2: people out? Are you adding other flights? I do think 1120 01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:49,040 Speaker 2: that's all legitimate. I think Magatcha is trying to compare 1121 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:49,920 Speaker 2: it to Afghanistan. 1122 01:07:49,960 --> 01:07:51,320 Speaker 3: It's too gross for words. 1123 01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:55,760 Speaker 2: Caroline Levitt was absolutely correct not to answer the hypothetical 1124 01:07:55,840 --> 01:08:00,960 Speaker 2: question because that would be a policy conversation, right what 1125 01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:07,440 Speaker 2: happens when some remnant of the regime is still in 1126 01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:11,520 Speaker 2: power and you're like Okay, that's enough now for the record, 1127 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:14,160 Speaker 2: that's not enough for me. I don't want any part 1128 01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 2: of the regime to be in there, Not for a 1129 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:23,559 Speaker 2: second do I want any part of the regime to remain. 1130 01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:30,120 Speaker 2: So this is, of course, the question that you can't 1131 01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:37,160 Speaker 2: really answer. This is the question that is most difficult 1132 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:41,160 Speaker 2: to answer. Tony Katz, Tony Kats today, I don't even 1133 01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:42,800 Speaker 2: know if the radio show has come back yet or not, 1134 01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:47,640 Speaker 2: but I only hope so. So I was kind of 1135 01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:51,040 Speaker 2: really deep in thought there about what she had said 1136 01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:53,200 Speaker 2: and wanted to go over it, want to make sure 1137 01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:54,280 Speaker 2: I had it. 1138 01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:55,400 Speaker 3: Right in my head. 1139 01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:58,799 Speaker 2: I think that this is when I discussed that America 1140 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,720 Speaker 2: should be discussing what we're doing Iran. What is success 1141 01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:04,760 Speaker 2: is a big one, And you heard her lay out 1142 01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:06,200 Speaker 2: a list of things. We're gonna do this, We're gonna 1143 01:09:06,200 --> 01:09:08,839 Speaker 2: do this, we're getting this, we're getting right, they're setting 1144 01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:12,559 Speaker 2: this now, they're setting this now. 1145 01:09:12,640 --> 01:09:14,639 Speaker 3: You could argue, well, you should have have set before. 1146 01:09:15,280 --> 01:09:17,920 Speaker 2: I'm less concerned about that, but that's me on a 1147 01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:18,679 Speaker 2: personal level. 1148 01:09:19,640 --> 01:09:27,519 Speaker 3: But if success is a member of the Iyahtolas. 1149 01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:29,599 Speaker 2: Regime being in charge and these people still not being 1150 01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:32,719 Speaker 2: free and in any level terrorism is still being paid 1151 01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 2: for or financially supported or supported in general. 1152 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:38,839 Speaker 3: Nope, that's not success. 1153 01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:44,400 Speaker 2: But one could argue that what it is is it's 1154 01:09:44,680 --> 01:09:49,439 Speaker 2: another step that we have taken to getting there. That 1155 01:09:49,479 --> 01:09:55,320 Speaker 2: doesn't really satisfy, does it. It doesn't. But when I 1156 01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,240 Speaker 2: heard her say it, I said, that's the right answer, 1157 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:00,680 Speaker 2: But it is not necessarily an answer. The question was 1158 01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:03,479 Speaker 2: the right answer for her, because the job of the 1159 01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:05,759 Speaker 2: Press secretary is not to answer that question at all. 1160 01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:10,280 Speaker 14: Ram to give themselves immunity within their country alongside their navy, 1161 01:10:10,360 --> 01:10:14,240 Speaker 14: so that inside their country they could continue to create 1162 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:17,880 Speaker 14: nuclear weapons and nuclear bombs, which would of course pose 1163 01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:21,600 Speaker 14: a risk to Americans in the region and even Americans 1164 01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:22,639 Speaker 14: one day here at home. 1165 01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:24,120 Speaker 3: And then another point. 1166 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:27,680 Speaker 14: On this is the President found that through these extensive, exhaustive, 1167 01:10:27,840 --> 01:10:31,439 Speaker 14: failed negotiations with Iran, that they were hell bent on 1168 01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:34,400 Speaker 14: death and destruction. So again, the President was not going 1169 01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:37,120 Speaker 14: to be just another president on a very long list 1170 01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:40,120 Speaker 14: who sat back and stood by and passed the bulk 1171 01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:44,000 Speaker 14: of this direct threat to the next administration. The President 1172 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:46,800 Speaker 14: had a feeling, again based on fact that Iran was 1173 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 14: going to strike the United States, was going to strike 1174 01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:51,640 Speaker 14: our assets in the region, and he made a determination 1175 01:10:51,760 --> 01:10:53,280 Speaker 14: to launch Operation Epic Fury. 1176 01:10:53,479 --> 01:10:57,519 Speaker 2: And so here's the question for those on the left 1177 01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:01,000 Speaker 2: who make this statements, make this that there was no 1178 01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:06,040 Speaker 2: imminent threat. Let's say they don't believe what Caroline Levitt 1179 01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:09,599 Speaker 2: just said, and they don't believe that Iran was getting 1180 01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:16,320 Speaker 2: ready to strike. At what moment would you have believed it? 1181 01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:20,240 Speaker 2: Is the threat imminent when we catch wind of it 1182 01:11:20,280 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 2: through our intelligence or some other nation's intelligence apparatus, or 1183 01:11:24,200 --> 01:11:28,719 Speaker 2: is the threat imminent just at that moment before impacting Cleveland, Ohio? 1184 01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:36,320 Speaker 3: When is it imminent? And so I really dismiss. 1185 01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:40,000 Speaker 2: This what I considered to be a lot of silliness 1186 01:11:40,240 --> 01:11:43,760 Speaker 2: on this idea of imminent, because it would seem that 1187 01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:49,640 Speaker 2: the left think's imminent is right before boom, and I 1188 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:55,360 Speaker 2: think that's way too late to do something. I think 1189 01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:58,120 Speaker 2: after Beirut, after the taking of hostage in seventy nine, 1190 01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:00,000 Speaker 2: we owed it to them to take them out. 1191 01:12:00,600 --> 01:12:03,280 Speaker 3: I'm glad it's happening. This is Tony Katz Today. 1192 01:12:08,840 --> 01:12:12,760 Speaker 1: Live from vall Hertbeyer and the Crossroads of America. 1193 01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:15,679 Speaker 3: It's Tony Katz Today. 1194 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:20,799 Speaker 2: So earlier today, Secretary Hegseth and General Cain, the Chairman 1195 01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:24,320 Speaker 2: of the Joint Chiefs, held a press confidence They've. 1196 01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:26,200 Speaker 3: Been doing this now in the mornings. 1197 01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 2: Tony Katz, Tony kats today, good to be with you. 1198 01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:33,000 Speaker 2: Updates and what's going on with the actions in Iran. 1199 01:12:34,360 --> 01:12:38,200 Speaker 2: And you know, on that first day, it was okay, 1200 01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:41,559 Speaker 2: here's what we did, here's why we did it, and 1201 01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:45,760 Speaker 2: Hegseth being Hegseeth, everything was very Trump did this and 1202 01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:48,240 Speaker 2: Trump did that. I'm not a fan of that kind 1203 01:12:48,320 --> 01:12:52,280 Speaker 2: of presser. What I'm a fan of is the troops 1204 01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:55,400 Speaker 2: did this, and the troops did that. President Trump gave 1205 01:12:55,439 --> 01:12:58,679 Speaker 2: the order, and here's what we did. When you put 1206 01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:02,080 Speaker 2: it all on Trump did this, and Trump's leadership in Trump. 1207 01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:04,439 Speaker 3: I often wonder whether or. 1208 01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:09,160 Speaker 2: Not military guys, never mind the American populace as a whole, 1209 01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,599 Speaker 2: look at that and say, it's not about you, it's 1210 01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:15,240 Speaker 2: about the people who are doing the fighting. We get 1211 01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:18,479 Speaker 2: that President Trump made the decision, and I don't think 1212 01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:21,920 Speaker 2: there's anything wrong in saying that, But there's a lot 1213 01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:24,120 Speaker 2: of repetition to Trump this and Trump that, and I 1214 01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:26,880 Speaker 2: don't like it when Hegseeth plays the part of Pam Bondy. 1215 01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:33,160 Speaker 2: It's a bad, bad look. But today was different. 1216 01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:33,439 Speaker 10: Right. 1217 01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:36,080 Speaker 2: I don't mind the statements, we're doing this, we're doing that, 1218 01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:37,200 Speaker 2: here's why we're doing it. 1219 01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:39,200 Speaker 3: And you know, you have Marco Rubio, the. 1220 01:13:39,200 --> 01:13:41,880 Speaker 2: Secretary of State, saying that his words got taken out 1221 01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:44,400 Speaker 2: of context because people didn't play the whole clip as 1222 01:13:44,400 --> 01:13:46,400 Speaker 2: he was talking about why we are involved in this 1223 01:13:46,479 --> 01:13:49,000 Speaker 2: and it wasn't Israel dragging us into it. This is 1224 01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:52,920 Speaker 2: what President Trump seemed to correct yesterday in some of 1225 01:13:52,960 --> 01:13:53,800 Speaker 2: his statements. 1226 01:13:54,479 --> 01:13:55,799 Speaker 3: And as I've. 1227 01:13:55,600 --> 01:13:58,040 Speaker 2: Looked at it, I think that whole concept is bunk. 1228 01:13:58,080 --> 01:14:00,240 Speaker 2: It's what it's what the woke right in the left 1229 01:14:00,280 --> 01:14:04,840 Speaker 2: desperately want. It's not reality. Do I think that they 1230 01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:07,439 Speaker 2: saw that Iran was looking to make moves, that Israel 1231 01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:10,479 Speaker 2: was absolutely ready to respond. Did the United States possibly 1232 01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:12,920 Speaker 2: say to itself after hearing all this and seeing all this. 1233 01:14:13,080 --> 01:14:15,640 Speaker 3: You know what, guys, We're in this. 1234 01:14:15,640 --> 01:14:18,639 Speaker 2: This is happening, and now is the moment, and that's 1235 01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:19,519 Speaker 2: all there is to it. 1236 01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:23,000 Speaker 3: When you take a look at the scope, you have 1237 01:14:23,080 --> 01:14:24,759 Speaker 3: to believe that we were prepared. 1238 01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:26,519 Speaker 2: And one of the ways we know we were prepared 1239 01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:28,439 Speaker 2: is that we had already moved the gerald from the 1240 01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:30,719 Speaker 2: Abraham Lincoln into the area. We moved the drail forward 1241 01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:32,960 Speaker 2: into the area. We have the knimits in the area. 1242 01:14:32,960 --> 01:14:35,960 Speaker 2: We were already setting things up. So the idea that 1243 01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:39,080 Speaker 2: somehow we were dragged into it last second doesn't comport 1244 01:14:39,120 --> 01:14:41,880 Speaker 2: with the facts on the ground. And so I never 1245 01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:45,400 Speaker 2: really gave that any credence, just that the left was 1246 01:14:45,439 --> 01:14:48,000 Speaker 2: gonna go wild with that story. The woke right, the 1247 01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:50,160 Speaker 2: Tuckers of the world are gonna go wild with that story. 1248 01:14:51,160 --> 01:14:54,800 Speaker 2: But today, and I want you to hear it for yourself, 1249 01:14:55,960 --> 01:15:03,040 Speaker 2: you had Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of War, a Sectionary 1250 01:15:03,120 --> 01:15:06,519 Speaker 2: of Defense, however you want to refer to him now 1251 01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:11,919 Speaker 2: these days, and he was making a much much different statement. 1252 01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:19,080 Speaker 2: And this has started what is quite clearly the propaganda war. No no, 1253 01:15:19,160 --> 01:15:20,480 Speaker 2: not for the American. 1254 01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:26,320 Speaker 3: Press in Iran. Listen, well, good morning. 1255 01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:32,320 Speaker 5: I stand before you today with one unmistakable message about 1256 01:15:32,400 --> 01:15:41,080 Speaker 5: Operation Epic Fury. America is winning decisively, devastatingly, and without mercy, 1257 01:15:41,760 --> 01:15:44,479 Speaker 5: under the direct command of President Trump. The War Department 1258 01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:50,200 Speaker 5: unleashed this operation early Saturday morning, just four days ago, 1259 01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:54,920 Speaker 5: which means we need to remember two things. 1260 01:15:55,360 --> 01:15:58,840 Speaker 6: First, we are only four days into this. 1261 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:03,160 Speaker 5: Are shifting, dust is settling, and more forces are arriving. 1262 01:16:03,160 --> 01:16:06,200 Speaker 5: It's very early, and as President Trump had said, we 1263 01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:07,720 Speaker 5: will take all the time. 1264 01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:10,160 Speaker 6: We need to make sure that we succeed. 1265 01:16:11,360 --> 01:16:16,200 Speaker 5: Second, we are only four days into this, and the 1266 01:16:16,240 --> 01:16:19,519 Speaker 5: results have been incredible, historic. 1267 01:16:19,640 --> 01:16:22,000 Speaker 6: Really, only the United States of. 1268 01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:26,240 Speaker 5: America could lead this, only US, But when you add 1269 01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:31,480 Speaker 5: the Israeli Defense Forces, a devastatingly capable force, the combination 1270 01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:37,680 Speaker 5: is sheer destruction for our radical Islamist Iranian adversaries. They 1271 01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:42,080 Speaker 5: are toast and they know it, or at least soon 1272 01:16:42,240 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 5: enough they will know it. And we have only just 1273 01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:51,880 Speaker 5: begun to hunt, dismantle, demoralize, destroy and defeat their capabilities. 1274 01:16:52,120 --> 01:16:58,200 Speaker 5: Just four days in, starting last night and to be 1275 01:16:58,240 --> 01:17:02,200 Speaker 5: completed in a few days. In under a week, the 1276 01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:05,760 Speaker 5: two most powerful air forces in the world will have 1277 01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:11,360 Speaker 5: complete control of Iranian skies, uncontested airspace. I hope all 1278 01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:17,520 Speaker 5: the folks watching understand what uncontested airspace and complete control means. 1279 01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:22,200 Speaker 5: It means we will fly all day, all night, day 1280 01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:26,280 Speaker 5: and night, finding, fixing and finishing the missiles and defense 1281 01:17:26,320 --> 01:17:30,759 Speaker 5: industrial base of the Iranian military, finding and fixing their 1282 01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:36,559 Speaker 5: leaders and their military leaders, flying over Tehran, flying over Iran, 1283 01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:42,200 Speaker 5: flying over their capital, flying over the IRGC, Iranian leaders 1284 01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:48,960 Speaker 5: looking up and seeing only US and Israeli air power 1285 01:17:49,880 --> 01:17:54,280 Speaker 5: every minute of every day until we decide it's over. 1286 01:17:55,720 --> 01:18:01,240 Speaker 3: That is not bragging. That is it's a propaganda war. 1287 01:18:01,720 --> 01:18:04,960 Speaker 2: Letting the IRGC know, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp. 1288 01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:10,840 Speaker 3: Know it's over and they have lost. That's what that is. 1289 01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:15,720 Speaker 2: It's not even close to anything else. It is so 1290 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:18,720 Speaker 2: easy and clear to understand. 1291 01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:19,599 Speaker 3: That this is what he's saying. 1292 01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:23,000 Speaker 2: Now there are reports that Trump is looking to hire 1293 01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:28,040 Speaker 2: forces to knock out the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp, which 1294 01:18:28,080 --> 01:18:31,760 Speaker 2: would would make sense in that you can't win this 1295 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,840 Speaker 2: if the IRGC is still in any way, shape or 1296 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:38,439 Speaker 2: form in power. 1297 01:18:38,479 --> 01:18:41,839 Speaker 3: You can't win this. If they are. 1298 01:18:42,840 --> 01:18:49,400 Speaker 2: Somehow still able to exist, they have to be broken. 1299 01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:54,479 Speaker 3: It has to happen. If it does not happen, then 1300 01:18:54,560 --> 01:18:57,120 Speaker 3: you aren't going to be able to win this. 1301 01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:03,760 Speaker 2: You can take out Theanian leadership, and they elected a Iatola, 1302 01:19:03,960 --> 01:19:09,960 Speaker 2: the son of Iatola Kamane, and he is dead. 1303 01:19:11,240 --> 01:19:12,880 Speaker 3: I mean, the Israelis are just. 1304 01:19:14,840 --> 01:19:22,880 Speaker 2: Knocking knocking this out of the park, just absolute destruction. 1305 01:19:23,640 --> 01:19:27,080 Speaker 2: Time and time and time again. The United States and 1306 01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:31,760 Speaker 2: the Israelis are doing an incredible job. But in order 1307 01:19:31,800 --> 01:19:33,760 Speaker 2: to have victory on the ground, you have to have 1308 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:35,920 Speaker 2: the people on the ground being able to rise up. 1309 01:19:36,280 --> 01:19:41,320 Speaker 2: Right now, there are people chanting resistance songs and the 1310 01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:45,280 Speaker 2: IRGC is shooting at them. So you have to break, 1311 01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:50,599 Speaker 2: you have to crack the IRGC. If you can't do that, 1312 01:19:50,760 --> 01:19:54,160 Speaker 2: you won't have it, you will not get the success. 1313 01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:58,680 Speaker 2: Now the US is claiming the destruction of an IRGC 1314 01:19:58,880 --> 01:20:01,800 Speaker 2: command center, and so what are we hearing next That 1315 01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:08,160 Speaker 2: the IRGC is reconstituting in hospitals and schools. Not a 1316 01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:13,200 Speaker 2: surprise if that is indeed the case. Not a surprise 1317 01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:17,800 Speaker 2: if we are to find that they pull the same 1318 01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:21,479 Speaker 2: stuff that Hamas pulls, hiding behind children and the sick 1319 01:20:21,760 --> 01:20:26,040 Speaker 2: and the elderly, because well that's what terrorists do. So 1320 01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:34,559 Speaker 2: this statement from Hegsath is absolutely a propaganda move to 1321 01:20:34,640 --> 01:20:37,600 Speaker 2: be played in Iran to break the will of the IRGC. 1322 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:42,040 Speaker 6: In Iran. We'll be able to do nothing about it. 1323 01:20:43,160 --> 01:20:44,600 Speaker 6: B two's B fifty two s. 1324 01:20:44,680 --> 01:20:49,760 Speaker 5: B ones predator drones, fighters controlling the skies, picking targets, 1325 01:20:50,160 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 5: death and destruction from the sky. 1326 01:20:53,200 --> 01:20:57,519 Speaker 6: All day long we're playing for keeps. 1327 01:20:58,360 --> 01:21:01,559 Speaker 5: Our war fighters have maximum of authorities granted personally by 1328 01:21:01,640 --> 01:21:06,800 Speaker 5: the President and yours truly. Our rules of engagement are bold, precise, 1329 01:21:07,240 --> 01:21:11,400 Speaker 5: and designed to unleash American power, not shackle it. This 1330 01:21:11,640 --> 01:21:15,280 Speaker 5: was never meant to be a fair fight, and it 1331 01:21:15,479 --> 01:21:16,719 Speaker 5: is not a fair fight. 1332 01:21:17,880 --> 01:21:21,439 Speaker 2: And if you ask me, I approve of everything that 1333 01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:27,160 Speaker 2: just got said there, every last thing that was said. 1334 01:21:27,240 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 2: Then you have General Kine who first addressed those who 1335 01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:41,760 Speaker 2: were killed in combat. Four names have been released thus far. 1336 01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:46,960 Speaker 2: Of those who were killed, you have Captain Cody cork 1337 01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:51,880 Speaker 2: kho r K of Florida, Sergeant first Class Noah Tegians 1338 01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:55,559 Speaker 2: of Nebraska, Sergeant first Class Nicole Ahmer or is it 1339 01:21:55,600 --> 01:22:00,280 Speaker 2: a Moore of Minnesota? And Sergeant Decland Cody of Iowa. 1340 01:22:01,439 --> 01:22:04,040 Speaker 2: That is for the sixth that we know of who 1341 01:22:04,040 --> 01:22:08,599 Speaker 2: have been killed in this attack. And so General Cain 1342 01:22:08,800 --> 01:22:13,200 Speaker 2: started with mentioning and remembering. 1343 01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:14,439 Speaker 3: Them remembers home at Dover. 1344 01:22:14,920 --> 01:22:19,000 Speaker 21: In the coming days, out of respect for the other families, 1345 01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:22,559 Speaker 21: will withhold the release of their names until next of 1346 01:22:22,680 --> 01:22:27,759 Speaker 21: kin notification is complete, and either myself or Admiral Cooper 1347 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:30,679 Speaker 21: will release those names as soon as we can ensure 1348 01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:34,280 Speaker 21: that all of those families have been properly notified. To 1349 01:22:34,360 --> 01:22:37,880 Speaker 21: our gold Star families, to our wounded warriors and their 1350 01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:42,439 Speaker 21: loved ones, we will never forget your sacrifice. Our nation 1351 01:22:42,680 --> 01:22:46,320 Speaker 21: stands with you, and we are eternally grateful for your courage, 1352 01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:50,880 Speaker 21: your resiliency, your devotion to this mission and to our nation. 1353 01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:54,400 Speaker 21: As the Secretary said, we're four days in one hundred 1354 01:22:54,400 --> 01:22:57,960 Speaker 21: and three hours into this campaign. The operation was again 1355 01:22:58,080 --> 01:23:01,800 Speaker 21: launched with clear military objectives to designed to dismantle Iran's 1356 01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:05,160 Speaker 21: ability to project power outside of its borders, both today 1357 01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:09,040 Speaker 21: and in the future. First, we are targeting and eliminating 1358 01:23:09,040 --> 01:23:12,360 Speaker 21: Iran's ballistic missile systems to prevent them from threatening the 1359 01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:17,600 Speaker 21: US forces, partners, and interests in the region. Second, we 1360 01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:22,559 Speaker 21: are destroying the Iranian Navy, degrading its capacity, capability, and 1361 01:23:22,800 --> 01:23:27,879 Speaker 21: ability to conduct operations not just in the Central Command aor, 1362 01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:31,920 Speaker 21: but as the Secretary showed in the video, around the world. Third, 1363 01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:37,599 Speaker 21: we're ensuring Iran cannot rapidly rebuild or reconstitute its combat 1364 01:23:37,640 --> 01:23:42,400 Speaker 21: capability or combat power, and those phases will begin as 1365 01:23:42,439 --> 01:23:47,599 Speaker 21: the campaign continues. As of this mornings, US Central Command 1366 01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:53,000 Speaker 21: is making steady progress a rans theater. Ballistic missile shots 1367 01:23:53,080 --> 01:23:56,680 Speaker 21: fired are down eighty six percent from the first day 1368 01:23:56,720 --> 01:24:00,439 Speaker 21: of fighting, with a twenty three percent decreased just in 1369 01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:03,639 Speaker 21: the last twenty four hours, and their one way attacked 1370 01:24:03,640 --> 01:24:07,320 Speaker 21: our own shots are down seventy three percent from the 1371 01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:12,680 Speaker 21: opening days. This progress has allowed Sentcom to establish localized 1372 01:24:13,120 --> 01:24:17,280 Speaker 21: air superiority across the southern flank of the Iranian coast 1373 01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:23,040 Speaker 21: and penetrate their defenses with overwhelming precision and firepower. We 1374 01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:28,719 Speaker 21: will now begin to expand inland, striking progressively deeper into 1375 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:34,520 Speaker 21: Iranian territory and creating additional freedom of maneuver for US forces. 1376 01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:37,519 Speaker 21: Let me explain a little bit about how we're thinking 1377 01:24:37,560 --> 01:24:41,320 Speaker 21: about staying ahead of the enemy first. Over the past 1378 01:24:41,320 --> 01:24:44,920 Speaker 21: several weeks, Admiral Cooper and the Sentcom team have refined 1379 01:24:44,960 --> 01:24:49,960 Speaker 21: their operational approach to the region. Their planners identified key 1380 01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:54,200 Speaker 21: centers of gravity that would allow a RAND to project 1381 01:24:54,280 --> 01:24:57,720 Speaker 21: power outside of its borders. They thought about how to 1382 01:24:57,840 --> 01:25:04,640 Speaker 21: isolate critical vulnerabilities, determined where with precision, the greatest strategic 1383 01:25:04,720 --> 01:25:08,520 Speaker 21: effect could be achieved. As a result of this, Sentcom 1384 01:25:08,640 --> 01:25:13,240 Speaker 21: is now shifting in day four already from large, deliberate 1385 01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:18,320 Speaker 21: strike packages using standoff munitions at range outside an enemy's 1386 01:25:18,360 --> 01:25:21,920 Speaker 21: ability to shoot at us now and to stand in 1387 01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:28,040 Speaker 21: precision strikes overhead. Aaron as the Secretary said, this is 1388 01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:33,040 Speaker 21: a point of munitions transition from standoff munitions to stand 1389 01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:37,080 Speaker 21: in munitions like joint direct attack munitions, which are GPS 1390 01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:41,559 Speaker 21: aided free fall weapons and other things like hell fires, etc. 1391 01:25:42,360 --> 01:25:45,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got a lot of firepower. Was there some 1392 01:25:45,439 --> 01:25:47,960 Speaker 2: Democrat who said they were worried we were going to 1393 01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:50,880 Speaker 2: run out of bullets, we were going to run out 1394 01:25:50,880 --> 01:25:57,200 Speaker 2: of ammunition. It is such an insane thought. But they're 1395 01:25:57,240 --> 01:26:01,479 Speaker 2: throwing anything. They're throwing anything they can at the idea 1396 01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:03,639 Speaker 2: of oh this is all so terrible, Oh we shouldn't 1397 01:26:03,680 --> 01:26:04,080 Speaker 2: be doing this. 1398 01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:06,120 Speaker 3: Oh this is the worst thing ever. 1399 01:26:07,120 --> 01:26:08,960 Speaker 2: I think that if we're going to discuss whether or 1400 01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:11,439 Speaker 2: not we should be doing this, we discuss it like adults. 1401 01:26:12,280 --> 01:26:14,320 Speaker 3: Do we want to be engaged like this? Yes or no? 1402 01:26:14,479 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 3: I say yes. 1403 01:26:16,080 --> 01:26:19,240 Speaker 2: Other people might disagree, but you don't say, well, we 1404 01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:21,280 Speaker 2: can't do this because we don't have the bullets. 1405 01:26:21,840 --> 01:26:23,800 Speaker 3: That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. 1406 01:26:24,120 --> 01:26:26,080 Speaker 2: And if we don't have the bullets, what we should 1407 01:26:26,080 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 2: do is defund planned parenthood. So we have all the bullets, 1408 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:35,760 Speaker 2: because what's imperative, what is most important is that we 1409 01:26:35,840 --> 01:26:42,120 Speaker 2: have all the damn bullets. There's the idea that we 1410 01:26:42,160 --> 01:26:45,719 Speaker 2: would actually spend our money on anything else in any 1411 01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:48,840 Speaker 2: other way. The only thing that matters is that we 1412 01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:51,719 Speaker 2: have the bullets. And if we don't have the bullets, 1413 01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:54,320 Speaker 2: we got to put an end to every social program 1414 01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:57,280 Speaker 2: democrats are in favor of to make sure we have 1415 01:26:57,400 --> 01:27:05,040 Speaker 2: the bullets. Good gosh, you see, that's an example of nonsense, ignorance, stupidity, 1416 01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:07,519 Speaker 2: and just full on trumped arrangement syndrome hate. 1417 01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:11,320 Speaker 3: We should address this like the grownups that we are. 1418 01:27:13,320 --> 01:27:16,680 Speaker 2: What is valuable here? What is the win here? What 1419 01:27:16,720 --> 01:27:19,040 Speaker 2: do we want out of this? What are the next 1420 01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:21,519 Speaker 2: steps out of this? What is an exit strategy? All 1421 01:27:21,560 --> 01:27:27,120 Speaker 2: good questions. By the way, some things are unknown. You 1422 01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:30,800 Speaker 2: have the president saying five weeks, we'll be there for 1423 01:27:30,840 --> 01:27:35,800 Speaker 2: five weeks. I think that's about setting an improper standard. 1424 01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:39,120 Speaker 2: And you can be done in two and then you say, look, 1425 01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:40,519 Speaker 2: how well we did. We were only done. We were 1426 01:27:40,560 --> 01:27:42,040 Speaker 2: done in two weeks. We said five weeks. 1427 01:27:42,080 --> 01:27:47,200 Speaker 3: My gosh. See the setup. And then if it lasts 1428 01:27:47,240 --> 01:27:47,880 Speaker 3: five weeks. 1429 01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:51,519 Speaker 2: Well, we told you it was gonna last five weeks, right, 1430 01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:55,840 Speaker 2: that's the idea of the buffer. But also you can 1431 01:27:55,960 --> 01:27:59,160 Speaker 2: argue that's giving a timeline to it is a problem. 1432 01:27:59,320 --> 01:28:02,040 Speaker 2: We don't want to give timelines to it. It's done 1433 01:28:02,120 --> 01:28:06,040 Speaker 2: when it's done. And now we have to ask ourselves 1434 01:28:06,040 --> 01:28:09,320 Speaker 2: what is done to me? What is done is the 1435 01:28:09,479 --> 01:28:12,960 Speaker 2: not only the Iotola dead, but the regime completely gone, 1436 01:28:13,080 --> 01:28:17,640 Speaker 2: not coming back, and the people establishing a government for 1437 01:28:17,720 --> 01:28:21,519 Speaker 2: themselves with some help from the United States and other nations, 1438 01:28:21,560 --> 01:28:25,040 Speaker 2: but not in a conversation of rebuilding, but in a 1439 01:28:25,080 --> 01:28:29,120 Speaker 2: conversation of getting things situated that Arab nations and other 1440 01:28:29,280 --> 01:28:32,320 Speaker 2: partners in the region will agree to, and then letting 1441 01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:34,280 Speaker 2: them go to work, and it might be different than 1442 01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:36,599 Speaker 2: this nation or that nation, but it'll be their nation. 1443 01:28:37,240 --> 01:28:40,679 Speaker 2: And as long as you're keeping them away from anything nuclear, 1444 01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:44,280 Speaker 2: you're allowing them to live their lives good. And they'll 1445 01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:46,360 Speaker 2: be squabbles and they'll be other things with other nations. 1446 01:28:46,400 --> 01:28:49,800 Speaker 2: That's going to happen, because these things do happen. But 1447 01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:52,920 Speaker 2: you want the end to the torture, the end to 1448 01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:56,519 Speaker 2: the murders, the end to the sponsorship of terrorism, and 1449 01:28:56,520 --> 01:28:58,080 Speaker 2: there are a lot of other forms of government that 1450 01:28:58,120 --> 01:29:00,280 Speaker 2: can do just to that. That's what I'm I'm looking 1451 01:29:00,320 --> 01:29:03,519 Speaker 2: forward and then we go home. That's my plan. We 1452 01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:06,559 Speaker 2: should discuss as adults what our plan is. But I 1453 01:29:06,680 --> 01:29:09,960 Speaker 2: tell you I favor the taking out of the regime 1454 01:29:10,360 --> 01:29:13,320 Speaker 2: for America's future, and I'm very glad that it happened. 1455 01:29:13,320 --> 01:29:17,120 Speaker 2: But what Secretary Hegseeth was doing today, that was propaganda 1456 01:29:17,400 --> 01:29:21,320 Speaker 2: pushed onto the IRGC to get them to break. You 1457 01:29:21,360 --> 01:29:25,920 Speaker 2: can't stop us. It's already over. It's all over, and 1458 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:27,559 Speaker 2: you lost surrender. 1459 01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:30,599 Speaker 3: Now. I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Kats today. 1460 01:29:30,960 --> 01:29:33,519 Speaker 2: The Texas primaries is where all the eyes were at 1461 01:29:33,640 --> 01:29:37,720 Speaker 2: last night. And Jasmine Crockett, how we will miss thee 1462 01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:42,160 Speaker 2: losing the primary to James tall Rico. 1463 01:29:42,800 --> 01:29:45,360 Speaker 3: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today. 1464 01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:49,599 Speaker 2: This guy, by the way, is a peach. I mean, 1465 01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:51,560 Speaker 2: this is James Tallerrico. 1466 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:55,160 Speaker 6: Our southern border should be like our front course. There 1467 01:29:55,160 --> 01:29:57,320 Speaker 6: should be a giant welcome matt out front. 1468 01:29:57,360 --> 01:30:00,760 Speaker 2: And some people are saying, oh, this is taken out 1469 01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:03,519 Speaker 2: of context. He was saying that we should only be 1470 01:30:03,600 --> 01:30:07,400 Speaker 2: welcoming to legal immigration. All I know is I went 1471 01:30:07,439 --> 01:30:12,360 Speaker 2: to his website Jamestolrico dot com. Most of us agree 1472 01:30:12,360 --> 01:30:14,640 Speaker 2: on what should happen. Our borders should be like a 1473 01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:17,360 Speaker 2: front porch. It should have a welcome at outfront and 1474 01:30:17,400 --> 01:30:21,080 Speaker 2: a lock on the door. We can both welcome the stranger, refugees, 1475 01:30:21,120 --> 01:30:23,240 Speaker 2: asylum secrets, and folks who want to contribute to our 1476 01:30:23,240 --> 01:30:26,240 Speaker 2: economy and pursue the American dream, and we can keep 1477 01:30:26,280 --> 01:30:27,400 Speaker 2: people out who. 1478 01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:28,480 Speaker 3: Mean to do us harm. 1479 01:30:28,600 --> 01:30:32,559 Speaker 2: Now, when you say welcome the stranger, and you're echoing 1480 01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:36,360 Speaker 2: the words of Mamdani, I have a hard time believing 1481 01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:41,400 Speaker 2: that you are serious about border security. I think it's 1482 01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:44,760 Speaker 2: something you say. We should be hunting down human traffickers, 1483 01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:47,759 Speaker 2: not moms and babies. We should be stopping a legal immigration, 1484 01:30:48,120 --> 01:30:51,600 Speaker 2: not curtailing avenues for immigrants to legally migrate to America 1485 01:30:51,680 --> 01:30:55,559 Speaker 2: and make our country richer and stronger. I don't think 1486 01:30:55,640 --> 01:30:59,479 Speaker 2: that he's taken out of context here. We should not 1487 01:31:00,200 --> 01:31:03,639 Speaker 2: have a giant welcome matt out front. We should favor 1488 01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:07,800 Speaker 2: legal immigration and not favor illegal immigration. So why not 1489 01:31:07,960 --> 01:31:10,479 Speaker 2: say the words? But you'll note he doesn't say that. 1490 01:31:10,800 --> 01:31:14,400 Speaker 2: He does not say legal and illegal. And when you 1491 01:31:14,439 --> 01:31:18,519 Speaker 2: are not willing to say things clearly, and you're willing 1492 01:31:18,560 --> 01:31:22,599 Speaker 2: to attack Ice constantly and consistently. No one should believe 1493 01:31:22,640 --> 01:31:25,520 Speaker 2: you on the border. But yet this guy is the nominee. 1494 01:31:25,560 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 2: The Republicans will have a runoff between the current Senator 1495 01:31:28,400 --> 01:31:32,000 Speaker 2: John Cornyn and the Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton because 1496 01:31:32,080 --> 01:31:33,040 Speaker 2: neither one of them got. 1497 01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:34,400 Speaker 3: Fifty percent of the vote. 1498 01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:41,080 Speaker 2: No, Jasmine Crockett, gosh, congratulations representative on your new show 1499 01:31:41,320 --> 01:31:42,919 Speaker 2: on MS now or CNN. 1500 01:31:43,560 --> 01:31:49,719 Speaker 3: This is Tony Katz Today. So it was a busy 1501 01:31:49,760 --> 01:31:51,439 Speaker 3: morning on the hill. 1502 01:31:51,680 --> 01:31:54,639 Speaker 2: The Supreme Court is hearing a case on transportation law, 1503 01:31:54,680 --> 01:31:56,719 Speaker 2: and I'm trying to figure out the case they heard 1504 01:31:56,840 --> 01:31:59,040 Speaker 2: yesterday on guns and weed. 1505 01:32:00,120 --> 01:32:02,559 Speaker 3: I cannot make hide nor hair of it. 1506 01:32:02,640 --> 01:32:05,240 Speaker 2: So I've got a little more research to do before 1507 01:32:05,280 --> 01:32:06,800 Speaker 2: I bring in some people to be able to ask 1508 01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:10,519 Speaker 2: the right questions. Tony Katz, Tony Katz Today, Good to 1509 01:32:10,560 --> 01:32:11,400 Speaker 2: be with you. 1510 01:32:11,560 --> 01:32:12,599 Speaker 3: I've got the story. 1511 01:32:13,360 --> 01:32:16,160 Speaker 2: If you are part of tonykats dot com and you 1512 01:32:16,200 --> 01:32:20,360 Speaker 2: get the show sheet every single day Monday through Friday, 1513 01:32:20,920 --> 01:32:24,720 Speaker 2: Shooting Newsweekly has it. It appears the Supreme Court is 1514 01:32:24,920 --> 01:32:30,360 Speaker 2: likely to let marijuana users' own guns. I'm telling you, 1515 01:32:30,400 --> 01:32:33,439 Speaker 2: I need the background. That's the problem here. I don't 1516 01:32:33,479 --> 01:32:38,559 Speaker 2: have the background on this to be able to kind 1517 01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:42,480 Speaker 2: of play how this should go forward. And the conversation 1518 01:32:42,720 --> 01:32:45,519 Speaker 2: is you're somebody who's smoking weed at home, and are 1519 01:32:45,560 --> 01:32:48,360 Speaker 2: you somehow do you give up your first year? I'm sorry, 1520 01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:53,479 Speaker 2: your Second Amendment rights? Is this the argument? So what's 1521 01:32:53,600 --> 01:32:57,759 Speaker 2: interesting is that these guys see it as it seemed 1522 01:32:57,800 --> 01:33:02,880 Speaker 2: like the court was leaning in that direction. And then 1523 01:33:02,920 --> 01:33:06,200 Speaker 2: you even have Vox, which is left leaning. The Supreme 1524 01:33:06,240 --> 01:33:10,599 Speaker 2: Court appears likely to let Stoner's own guns. I got 1525 01:33:10,600 --> 01:33:13,439 Speaker 2: to understand the story before I am able to ask 1526 01:33:13,520 --> 01:33:15,519 Speaker 2: the right questions, to get the right people in here, 1527 01:33:15,520 --> 01:33:17,479 Speaker 2: to be able to explain to us what exactly just 1528 01:33:17,600 --> 01:33:20,439 Speaker 2: happened here. So have you got any thoughts? I'll take them. 1529 01:33:20,640 --> 01:33:22,759 Speaker 2: Tony at Tony Kats dot com love to hear. 1530 01:33:22,600 --> 01:33:23,360 Speaker 3: What you have to say. 1531 01:33:23,760 --> 01:33:27,800 Speaker 2: Remember, I'm a Second Amendment guy, not a gun guy. 1532 01:33:28,680 --> 01:33:32,840 Speaker 2: So in this conversation, I'm very focused on how we 1533 01:33:33,080 --> 01:33:36,080 Speaker 2: view the rights of the Second Amendment and are they 1534 01:33:36,200 --> 01:33:41,720 Speaker 2: ever impeded by other activities that we have deemed to 1535 01:33:41,920 --> 01:33:47,280 Speaker 2: be illegal activities? Is the action of X changing the 1536 01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:51,840 Speaker 2: right of why? If one would ask the question, if 1537 01:33:51,920 --> 01:33:54,920 Speaker 2: you are defending your home or defending your loved ones, 1538 01:33:55,320 --> 01:33:59,080 Speaker 2: and in that defense you shoot and kill somebody, that 1539 01:33:59,200 --> 01:34:02,360 Speaker 2: is seen differently. One would assume then if you were 1540 01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:05,160 Speaker 2: defending your loved ones or defending yourself and you were 1541 01:34:05,240 --> 01:34:09,320 Speaker 2: drunk and killed somebody. So that's my question. What already 1542 01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:11,559 Speaker 2: exists on the books? What is it that we're actually 1543 01:34:11,880 --> 01:34:13,479 Speaker 2: asking here? And I've got a couple people that I'm 1544 01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:15,760 Speaker 2: going to bring to you guys to be able to 1545 01:34:15,840 --> 01:34:19,040 Speaker 2: kind of break that down further. So that happened yesterday. 1546 01:34:19,520 --> 01:34:22,960 Speaker 2: And then you have Christy Nome testifying. She's testifying in 1547 01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:28,280 Speaker 2: front of the House, I believe, a House Judiciary committee 1548 01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:32,240 Speaker 2: about oversight of Homeland Security. 1549 01:34:32,280 --> 01:34:34,479 Speaker 3: So you know that's going to be a very. 1550 01:34:34,360 --> 01:34:38,599 Speaker 2: Contested and angry kind of event with leftists trying to 1551 01:34:38,680 --> 01:34:41,799 Speaker 2: get in all the talking points they can about ice. 1552 01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:46,479 Speaker 3: Then you have what we talked. 1553 01:34:46,240 --> 01:34:51,120 Speaker 2: About earlier regarding the press conference from the Secretary of 1554 01:34:51,120 --> 01:34:55,800 Speaker 2: War Pete Hegseth, Tim Walls, the governor of Minnesota. He's 1555 01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:58,920 Speaker 2: talking in front of Congress about the misuse of federal funds, 1556 01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:05,200 Speaker 2: the fraud. Can I tell you I had the most 1557 01:35:05,560 --> 01:35:10,799 Speaker 2: retweeted or most liked tweet post of my life. 1558 01:35:11,479 --> 01:35:17,720 Speaker 3: The other day. It is weird how things hit. It 1559 01:35:17,840 --> 01:35:23,720 Speaker 3: is very, very strange. And I saw that Tim Walls 1560 01:35:24,479 --> 01:35:26,760 Speaker 3: he had posted. 1561 01:35:27,920 --> 01:35:31,200 Speaker 2: After it was announced that you know, we had engaged 1562 01:35:31,240 --> 01:35:33,960 Speaker 2: these hits on on Iran. 1563 01:35:34,960 --> 01:35:39,880 Speaker 3: He wrote, no new wars. Right, so brave, so brave 1564 01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:42,560 Speaker 3: that he wrote no new Wars. 1565 01:35:43,320 --> 01:35:47,840 Speaker 2: I responded with what's called the quote tweet, and I 1566 01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:49,719 Speaker 2: responded with no new. 1567 01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:57,080 Speaker 3: Fraud, no new fraud. I thought it was a good remark, and. 1568 01:35:57,640 --> 01:36:00,599 Speaker 2: It's it's absolutely something that I favored. I think you favor. 1569 01:36:01,560 --> 01:36:02,960 Speaker 2: Twelve thousand likes. 1570 01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:06,120 Speaker 3: That is the most of my career. 1571 01:36:06,760 --> 01:36:10,120 Speaker 2: I don't I don't understand how the social media works. 1572 01:36:10,240 --> 01:36:14,200 Speaker 2: I really am bamboozled by all of it. How does 1573 01:36:14,280 --> 01:36:18,479 Speaker 2: that connect? I have written things that I think are 1574 01:36:18,640 --> 01:36:25,280 Speaker 2: pure genius. Quite literally Shakespeare would say, bravo, sir, just 1575 01:36:25,280 --> 01:36:29,760 Speaker 2: just go poetry, sunnit worthy. 1576 01:36:30,920 --> 01:36:31,519 Speaker 3: Five likes. 1577 01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:36,519 Speaker 2: I swear to you, I have no idea why these 1578 01:36:36,560 --> 01:36:42,840 Speaker 2: things connect as they do. So Walls is engaged there 1579 01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:47,720 Speaker 2: and I'll share that more with you tomorrow. But the 1580 01:36:47,760 --> 01:36:51,280 Speaker 2: House Republicans held a news conference, and of course there's 1581 01:36:51,280 --> 01:36:54,240 Speaker 2: a lot to talk about because within everything we just mentioned, 1582 01:36:55,760 --> 01:37:04,680 Speaker 2: Warren Iran fraud in Minnesota Ice. Everything leads to the midterms. 1583 01:37:06,040 --> 01:37:08,760 Speaker 2: These people have to win the midterms. So when they're 1584 01:37:08,760 --> 01:37:12,599 Speaker 2: now engaged in these conversations and speaking in front of 1585 01:37:12,680 --> 01:37:16,040 Speaker 2: the press and in front of America, everything has to 1586 01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:19,439 Speaker 2: be midterm directed. And you know that I'm a guy 1587 01:37:19,479 --> 01:37:24,080 Speaker 2: who sees the path if they fight, prove a couple 1588 01:37:24,120 --> 01:37:28,040 Speaker 2: of their economic policies accurate, actually lower some costs they 1589 01:37:28,040 --> 01:37:30,680 Speaker 2: have on gas, and they will again. Gas prices are 1590 01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:33,120 Speaker 2: going to go up. It was up eleven cents nationwide 1591 01:37:33,360 --> 01:37:35,600 Speaker 2: because of what's happening in Iran. You're already seeing a 1592 01:37:35,640 --> 01:37:40,439 Speaker 2: little bit of stabilization in the oil prices. The big 1593 01:37:40,560 --> 01:37:44,760 Speaker 2: jumps went down a little bit. Then I'm down much right. 1594 01:37:44,880 --> 01:37:47,519 Speaker 2: You do have West Texas crude that for the majority 1595 01:37:47,560 --> 01:37:49,559 Speaker 2: of the day was under seventy five dollars a barrel. 1596 01:37:49,720 --> 01:37:51,680 Speaker 2: The Brent crude, which is out of the oceans, was 1597 01:37:51,760 --> 01:37:54,240 Speaker 2: under eighty five dollars a barrel. These days it was 1598 01:37:54,360 --> 01:37:57,800 Speaker 2: over eighty seven. So everything's calmed. 1599 01:37:57,760 --> 01:38:02,560 Speaker 3: A little bit. The futures market this morning was positive. 1600 01:38:03,000 --> 01:38:04,920 Speaker 3: The markets were up. 1601 01:38:05,960 --> 01:38:09,360 Speaker 2: Yes, they were down four hundred yesterday, agreed, but they 1602 01:38:09,400 --> 01:38:13,160 Speaker 2: were down twelve hundred yesterday and they only closed down 1603 01:38:13,200 --> 01:38:19,000 Speaker 2: four hundred, which is to say that everybody has calmed 1604 01:38:19,040 --> 01:38:20,599 Speaker 2: down a little bit and they're taking a look at 1605 01:38:20,600 --> 01:38:24,000 Speaker 2: what's happening and they're absorbing it. And then you've got 1606 01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:26,719 Speaker 2: Besson saying there's going to be a global fifteen percent 1607 01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:30,040 Speaker 2: tariff that's going to go into effect this week, even. 1608 01:38:29,760 --> 01:38:30,840 Speaker 3: With everything else going on. 1609 01:38:31,680 --> 01:38:33,720 Speaker 2: And I will tell you, and I haven't spoken to 1610 01:38:34,000 --> 01:38:35,800 Speaker 2: any of my economics people yet. I haven't spoken to 1611 01:38:35,840 --> 01:38:38,200 Speaker 2: doctor Wills or Charles Payin or some of the other 1612 01:38:38,200 --> 01:38:39,160 Speaker 2: people that I chat with. 1613 01:38:40,240 --> 01:38:41,280 Speaker 3: I think that. 1614 01:38:41,200 --> 01:38:44,200 Speaker 2: People are going to very much like this idea of okay, 1615 01:38:44,240 --> 01:38:46,680 Speaker 2: it's fifteen percent across the board. Now, we still have 1616 01:38:46,720 --> 01:38:50,040 Speaker 2: different tariffs on automotive and some other things, but there's 1617 01:38:50,120 --> 01:38:53,120 Speaker 2: certainty in that number. And I think one of the 1618 01:38:53,160 --> 01:38:55,080 Speaker 2: things the market and I shouldn't say, I think I 1619 01:38:55,120 --> 01:38:58,200 Speaker 2: think we would all agree one of the things that 1620 01:38:58,280 --> 01:39:03,560 Speaker 2: the market likes is certainty, so they know how to act, 1621 01:39:04,040 --> 01:39:06,559 Speaker 2: they know what's coming, they can work within it. 1622 01:39:07,439 --> 01:39:09,840 Speaker 3: So all of this is still backdrop, and you know, 1623 01:39:09,880 --> 01:39:11,920 Speaker 3: I hate tariffs. I do. 1624 01:39:12,200 --> 01:39:15,400 Speaker 2: All this is backdrop for everything Republicans say between now 1625 01:39:15,400 --> 01:39:19,800 Speaker 2: and November three, because everything plays into the reelection game 1626 01:39:20,160 --> 01:39:24,599 Speaker 2: plays into the midterms. So when they gather as they 1627 01:39:24,640 --> 01:39:28,760 Speaker 2: did with the Speaker of the House, Brian mast is there, 1628 01:39:28,840 --> 01:39:34,439 Speaker 2: Tom Emmer, you've got the majority leader in Steve Scalise, 1629 01:39:34,560 --> 01:39:37,960 Speaker 2: you have the majority whip, Tom Emmer, and oh, I 1630 01:39:38,000 --> 01:39:40,519 Speaker 2: forget her name right there, I'm gonna get yelled at 1631 01:39:40,520 --> 01:39:44,200 Speaker 2: for forgetting her name. They have to be addressing the war, 1632 01:39:44,560 --> 01:39:48,559 Speaker 2: the economy, all of it, to say, our policies are working, 1633 01:39:48,600 --> 01:39:53,200 Speaker 2: and our strength is working. Everything is a midterm conversation. 1634 01:39:53,520 --> 01:39:56,759 Speaker 20: Well, our brave men and women are risking their lives 1635 01:39:56,840 --> 01:40:03,080 Speaker 20: overseas to keep America safe. Democrats here are tearing down 1636 01:40:03,120 --> 01:40:10,479 Speaker 20: our defenses. Nearly every single Democrat voted to shut down 1637 01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:13,880 Speaker 20: the Department of Homeland Security. 1638 01:40:15,000 --> 01:40:16,879 Speaker 11: This wasn't a messaging mistake. 1639 01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:22,720 Speaker 20: It was a deliberate policy choice, and a very dangerous. 1640 01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:24,200 Speaker 3: One in that I love this. 1641 01:40:24,800 --> 01:40:30,160 Speaker 2: I love everything about this right here because I talk 1642 01:40:30,240 --> 01:40:33,120 Speaker 2: about the lack of fight and Republicans and how it's 1643 01:40:33,160 --> 01:40:39,480 Speaker 2: supposed to work, and fighting is not about worrying about civility. 1644 01:40:39,720 --> 01:40:43,960 Speaker 3: People get civility all sorts of wrong. Civility is not 1645 01:40:44,040 --> 01:40:45,200 Speaker 3: the absence of fighting. 1646 01:40:45,720 --> 01:40:48,519 Speaker 2: You have to go at these people who are endangering 1647 01:40:48,600 --> 01:40:52,200 Speaker 2: the lives of Americans. With everything in you, you still 1648 01:40:52,200 --> 01:40:54,880 Speaker 2: haven't funded the Department of Homeland Security. Well, that means 1649 01:40:54,920 --> 01:40:57,400 Speaker 2: that Fentadel can get into the country. That means we 1650 01:40:57,439 --> 01:41:00,960 Speaker 2: don't have the Coastguard doing its job because people aren't 1651 01:41:00,960 --> 01:41:04,439 Speaker 2: getting paid and Lord only knows what terrorist cells are 1652 01:41:04,479 --> 01:41:07,879 Speaker 2: trying to make their way our way. This is dangerous 1653 01:41:07,880 --> 01:41:11,599 Speaker 2: stuff that the Democrats are allowing to happen. These Democrats 1654 01:41:11,640 --> 01:41:14,280 Speaker 2: are going to get people killed. These Democrats have blood 1655 01:41:14,280 --> 01:41:17,599 Speaker 2: on their hands. These Democrats aren't serious about America safety 1656 01:41:17,600 --> 01:41:20,960 Speaker 2: and security. These are democrats don't even care about the country. 1657 01:41:21,040 --> 01:41:22,920 Speaker 2: They don't care about your kids, they don't care about 1658 01:41:22,920 --> 01:41:25,840 Speaker 2: your wife, they don't care about your memhile, these Democrats 1659 01:41:25,880 --> 01:41:26,960 Speaker 2: cannot be in power. 1660 01:41:27,160 --> 01:41:28,280 Speaker 3: They're too dangerous. 1661 01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:34,040 Speaker 2: I want more of that talk. I want them on defense. 1662 01:41:34,400 --> 01:41:37,120 Speaker 2: I want them explaining. As the old adage goes, if 1663 01:41:37,120 --> 01:41:41,080 Speaker 2: you're in politics, if you're explaining, you're losing. So I 1664 01:41:41,360 --> 01:41:43,559 Speaker 2: like this approach very much. 1665 01:41:44,600 --> 01:41:47,760 Speaker 20: Between twenty and twenty one and twenty and twenty four, 1666 01:41:47,840 --> 01:41:52,960 Speaker 20: the Biden administration's open border borders allowed more than three 1667 01:41:53,360 --> 01:41:59,000 Speaker 20: hundred and eighty individuals. I'm the terrorist watch list to 1668 01:41:59,200 --> 01:42:04,759 Speaker 20: be APPREHENDI attempting to cross our borders illegally. We also 1669 01:42:04,880 --> 01:42:10,000 Speaker 20: know that Biden released more than seven hundred Iranians into 1670 01:42:10,080 --> 01:42:16,680 Speaker 20: the interior of our country after crossing our border illegally. 1671 01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:17,760 Speaker 11: Now that's just what we know. 1672 01:42:19,080 --> 01:42:23,519 Speaker 20: President Trump didn't waste one second cleaning up that mess. 1673 01:42:23,920 --> 01:42:27,479 Speaker 20: Within days of taking office, President Trump got to work 1674 01:42:27,680 --> 01:42:34,720 Speaker 20: deporting Iranian terrorists who had entered under Biden. They weren't overseas, 1675 01:42:35,160 --> 01:42:40,280 Speaker 20: they were here on American soil. The job isn't finished. 1676 01:42:41,080 --> 01:42:46,000 Speaker 20: The threat is real, and when the world's leading sponsor 1677 01:42:46,120 --> 01:42:53,200 Speaker 20: of terrorism is promising retaliation, this is the moment Democrats 1678 01:42:53,240 --> 01:42:58,000 Speaker 20: decide to shut down the very agency created after nine 1679 01:42:58,040 --> 01:43:01,519 Speaker 20: to eleven to prevent another attack. 1680 01:43:02,600 --> 01:43:05,680 Speaker 3: I like this approach. I like it a lot. 1681 01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:09,080 Speaker 2: Now I'm a guy who would be very okay if 1682 01:43:11,200 --> 01:43:13,920 Speaker 2: this part of homeland security was gone. I think we 1683 01:43:13,960 --> 01:43:20,639 Speaker 2: could do this all under defense. I absolutely do. Then 1684 01:43:20,760 --> 01:43:25,439 Speaker 2: speaking was Representative Brian mast who, as you know, lost 1685 01:43:25,520 --> 01:43:27,560 Speaker 2: his legs, a man who served. 1686 01:43:27,360 --> 01:43:29,960 Speaker 3: In the military. They bring him up next. 1687 01:43:32,880 --> 01:43:35,840 Speaker 22: Let's start by speaking about our FAIGN service members as well. 1688 01:43:36,800 --> 01:43:42,040 Speaker 22: Representative Zinki and myself. We were discussing this literally heartbreaking 1689 01:43:42,080 --> 01:43:44,400 Speaker 22: to us, and I mean that it's something that can 1690 01:43:44,439 --> 01:43:47,000 Speaker 22: bring us to tears as we think about taps, and 1691 01:43:47,040 --> 01:43:50,000 Speaker 22: we think about that crack of a twenty one gun salute, 1692 01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:53,759 Speaker 22: and you think about seeing our friends, spouse's families handed flags. 1693 01:43:54,000 --> 01:43:57,200 Speaker 22: You know, when you think about those things, it literally 1694 01:43:57,360 --> 01:43:59,559 Speaker 22: it brings you to tears when you think about old 1695 01:43:59,560 --> 01:44:02,040 Speaker 22: friends and we have families that are about to go 1696 01:44:02,080 --> 01:44:04,799 Speaker 22: through that. It's a very serious thing for our country. 1697 01:44:07,360 --> 01:44:10,000 Speaker 3: But what our reflection is also about that is that. 1698 01:44:11,560 --> 01:44:15,760 Speaker 22: We can't even count the number of friends that we 1699 01:44:15,800 --> 01:44:20,599 Speaker 22: have buried because of the hand of Iran. Year after year, 1700 01:44:20,840 --> 01:44:23,320 Speaker 22: there's an estimate that one in six service members that 1701 01:44:23,360 --> 01:44:27,040 Speaker 22: were killed from roughly two thousand and three to thirteen 1702 01:44:27,160 --> 01:44:29,799 Speaker 22: fourteen that window killed by the hand of Iran. 1703 01:44:29,840 --> 01:44:30,719 Speaker 6: Those were our friends. 1704 01:44:32,160 --> 01:44:35,320 Speaker 22: And Finally, and that's why the thanks goes to President Trump. 1705 01:44:35,400 --> 01:44:39,720 Speaker 22: Finally we have a commander in chief that's willing to 1706 01:44:39,760 --> 01:44:45,040 Speaker 22: say that that comes to an end. We're no longer 1707 01:44:45,120 --> 01:44:49,240 Speaker 22: going to face this imminent threat year after year after year. 1708 01:44:50,000 --> 01:44:51,640 Speaker 3: What does that imminent threat look like? 1709 01:44:51,720 --> 01:44:55,280 Speaker 22: What has it been beyond just the last four days, 1710 01:44:55,320 --> 01:44:57,040 Speaker 22: What has it been for the last forty years or 1711 01:44:57,080 --> 01:45:00,120 Speaker 22: the last couple of years that President Trump decides that 1712 01:45:00,200 --> 01:45:03,720 Speaker 22: he needed to act against it. Almost every member of 1713 01:45:03,760 --> 01:45:07,679 Speaker 22: Congress has voted to say that Iran is the largest 1714 01:45:07,680 --> 01:45:11,599 Speaker 22: state sponsor of terror because they're an imminent threat. Almost 1715 01:45:11,720 --> 01:45:17,479 Speaker 22: unanimous votes condemning their continuous support for proxies that are 1716 01:45:17,520 --> 01:45:22,639 Speaker 22: attacking America, our people, our merchant marine fleets, our navy vessels. 1717 01:45:22,680 --> 01:45:26,920 Speaker 22: Almost unanimous votes condemning that, almost unanimous votes calling their 1718 01:45:27,000 --> 01:45:30,919 Speaker 22: nuclear program a massive threat to the United States of America. 1719 01:45:31,000 --> 01:45:35,880 Speaker 22: Almost unanimous votes designating the Iran Revolutionary Guard as a 1720 01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:42,480 Speaker 22: terrorist organization. All of those votes, they weren't almost unanimous 1721 01:45:43,400 --> 01:45:47,799 Speaker 22: for no reason at all. They paint a clear picture 1722 01:45:48,479 --> 01:45:53,000 Speaker 22: of what everybody has concluded to be an imminent threat 1723 01:45:53,160 --> 01:45:55,160 Speaker 22: against the United States of America. 1724 01:45:56,080 --> 01:45:57,840 Speaker 3: Year in, year out. 1725 01:45:58,800 --> 01:46:02,559 Speaker 22: Iran has been an threat against US because they had 1726 01:46:02,600 --> 01:46:06,679 Speaker 22: never faced an imminent response until President Trump. 1727 01:46:08,200 --> 01:46:08,880 Speaker 3: What did they face? 1728 01:46:08,960 --> 01:46:14,120 Speaker 22: Instead, they faced negotiations that told them how much uranium 1729 01:46:14,160 --> 01:46:17,200 Speaker 22: they could enrich when they could reach their nuclear weapon, 1730 01:46:17,240 --> 01:46:23,040 Speaker 22: instead of never literally received palettes of cash. 1731 01:46:23,560 --> 01:46:27,360 Speaker 2: That's what Obama did, And I like this too. Brian 1732 01:46:27,479 --> 01:46:31,439 Speaker 2: mast is making the clear distinction between the weakness of 1733 01:46:31,520 --> 01:46:34,760 Speaker 2: the old and the strength of the new that the 1734 01:46:34,760 --> 01:46:38,200 Speaker 2: weakness failed and led us into more danger, but this 1735 01:46:38,360 --> 01:46:41,040 Speaker 2: strength will prevail and lead us to more peace. 1736 01:46:41,720 --> 01:46:42,439 Speaker 3: It's a good. 1737 01:46:42,280 --> 01:46:45,640 Speaker 2: Message that can resonate. This is Tony Katz today. So 1738 01:46:45,760 --> 01:46:50,080 Speaker 2: all this talk about the tours of Taylor Swift, all 1739 01:46:50,120 --> 01:46:54,120 Speaker 2: this talk about how popular Bad Bunny was or wasn't 1740 01:46:54,400 --> 01:46:58,759 Speaker 2: at the at the Super Bowl, Shakira had a concert 1741 01:46:58,920 --> 01:47:02,160 Speaker 2: in Mexico City. It was a free concert, which you 1742 01:47:02,200 --> 01:47:06,200 Speaker 2: could argue changes things. Around four hundred thousand people showed up. 1743 01:47:07,120 --> 01:47:10,160 Speaker 2: Tony Katz, Tony kats today, good to be with you. 1744 01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:14,200 Speaker 2: All I'm saying is, yes, if it's free, more people 1745 01:47:14,200 --> 01:47:17,559 Speaker 2: are going to show up. If I see fifty people 1746 01:47:17,600 --> 01:47:19,120 Speaker 2: in a crowd, I'm like, you know what, maybe this 1747 01:47:19,160 --> 01:47:19,680 Speaker 2: isn't for me. 1748 01:47:20,360 --> 01:47:26,520 Speaker 3: Four hundred thousand people showed up. 1749 01:47:27,800 --> 01:47:34,559 Speaker 2: At this concert in Mexico City. That is crazy. I 1750 01:47:34,680 --> 01:47:38,400 Speaker 2: also did not know Shakira was so popular. I know 1751 01:47:38,479 --> 01:47:41,559 Speaker 2: the hips don't lie. I just didn't know they brought 1752 01:47:41,600 --> 01:47:44,559 Speaker 2: so many people out into the party. But I am 1753 01:47:44,680 --> 01:47:49,200 Speaker 2: reminded of this by this that in the end, people 1754 01:47:49,240 --> 01:47:52,320 Speaker 2: do not want solitary lives. They want human connection, they 1755 01:47:52,360 --> 01:47:54,880 Speaker 2: want experiences. 1756 01:47:55,400 --> 01:47:57,800 Speaker 3: There is life outside your apartment, and there is life 1757 01:47:57,840 --> 01:48:00,960 Speaker 3: outside your phone screen is true and real. 1758 01:48:01,360 --> 01:48:04,720 Speaker 2: Find everything at Tonycotts dot com tomorrow, everyone, take care,
