00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:06,199
Speaker 1: Or at the canopygroup dot com.

2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 2: But we must remember in a time such as this,

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 2: we are not the crazy ones New York City. We

4
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 2: are not the outlandish ones New York City. They want

5
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 2: us to think we are crazy.

6
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: We are saying.

7
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:28,479
Speaker 3: You're fascinating to talk to.

8
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 4: What a weird thing to say? Insert the thou dost

9
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 4: protest too much. Jina City's News Talk AM eleven thirty.

10
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 1: One O three five FM. Look at breaking news.

11
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:56,279
Speaker 4: Ex Prince Andrew has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct

12
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 4: in office according to the BBC.

13
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 1: I have no idea what any of that means.

14
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 4: I have expected it to be like related to the

15
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 4: Epstein files or something, but apparently apparently not.

16
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: It just popped up.

17
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 4: So I'll spend some time in the upcoming segment getting

18
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 4: you up to speed on that. Here on Twin City's

19
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 4: News Talk I Am eleven thirty and one oh three

20
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 4: five FM.

21
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 1: We have a very very busy show today.

22
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 4: We're going to talk about how we're going to war

23
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 4: with Iran, and nobody seems to be aware of this.

24
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 4: I'm not even kidding, Like nobody has been Like none

25
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 4: of the news media has been covering what is the

26
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 4: largest military build up across the board in the Middle

27
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 4: East since the Gulf War. I don't think most people

28
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 4: really have a true grasp because the media just has

29
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 4: not been talking about it.

30
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: But they may be talking about it.

31
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 4: Soon because apparently there could be strikes on Iran that

32
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 4: we take the lead on as early as this weekend.

33
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 1: So I'll get you up to speed on that.

34
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 4: We'll talk about the latest regarding the legislative session.

35
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 1: Also, I'm laughing.

36
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 4: Because as I was going through my prep this morning,

37
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 4: I had stories popping up that ended up relating to

38
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 4: one another and more specifically my commentary. What I'm talking about,

39
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 4: and I'll get into in the seven o'clock hour, is

40
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 4: that the memorial for Renee Nicole Gooden was set on

41
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 4: fire on Tuesday, and there's an investigation that's launched, and

42
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 4: I have my thoughts on what has transpired and that

43
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 4: memorial and the dangers of having a memorial like that

44
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 4: for too long a period of time, and what could

45
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 4: potentially be the negative consequences of that. And then subsequently,

46
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 4: right after I was writing down my notes for that story,

47
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 4: I found another story wherein Democrats are attempting to go

48
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 4: and make these memorials permanent. We do have a Gone

49
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 4: Green update that hopefully we'll get to much later in

50
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 4: the show as well. A lot of ground to cover,

51
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 4: but let's start here from the Wall Street Journal, and

52
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 4: it was really Axios, and I'll share with you some

53
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 4: of the details from Axios. It was really Axios that

54
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 4: broke the initial reporting on this.

55
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: For those that have been paying close.

56
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 4: Attention, and I've been watching over the course of the

57
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 4: past week the military build up as the negotiations with

58
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 4: Iran over their nuclear programs continue. But it was really

59
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 4: Axios that broke the story that is now driving much

60
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 4: of the reporting that's been taking place. The Wall Street

61
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 4: Journal piggybacking off that said, the US is ready to

62
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 4: take action against Iran. President Donald Trump hasn't decided whether

63
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 4: to order strikes, or if he does order them, whether

64
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 4: the aim would be to halt Iran's already battered nuclear program,

65
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 4: wipe out its missile force, or try to topple the regime.

66
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 4: Most of the experts right now are pointing to this

67
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 4: is a regime change that we're looking at, that this

68
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 4: is not about the nuclear weapons program. The protests that

69
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 4: have been taking place, the regime on the brink, in

70
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 4: or on. This might be a tactic, a massive show

71
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 4: of force to bring Oran to the table. Apparently there

72
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 4: are other leaders waiting in the wings, willing and ready

73
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 4: to step up to replace the current Iranian regime. But

74
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 4: most of the analysts right now are pointing to this

75
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 4: not being about the nuclear weapons program and more about

76
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 4: a regime change. And there's a lot that comes with that,

77
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 4: and a lot that we as Americans are going to

78
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 4: have to discuss if that is the case.

79
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: I am in support of this.

80
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 4: I will explain why coming up a little bit later

81
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 4: on in the hour. The options, according to the Wall

82
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 4: Street Journal, include a campaign to kill scores of Iranian

83
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 4: and political leaders with a goal of overthrowing the government

84
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 4: according to US and foreign officials, as well as an

85
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 4: air attack that would be limited to striking targets including

86
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 4: the nuclear and ballistic missile facilities. Both would involve potentially

87
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 4: a week's long operation. And when you consider what took

88
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 4: place with Maduro in venez Whala, that almost felt like

89
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 4: a tea up. Let's test out the discombobulator, see how

90
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 4: successful it is. And of course we know the success

91
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 4: of what took place in that operation some advisors and

92
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 4: foreign leaders, such as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, are

93
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 4: telling Trump that he should use the military pressure to

94
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 4: squeeze more concessions out of Tehran. Israel wants, in particular

95
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 4: to see an end to their ballistic missiles production. The

96
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 4: US military and its stealth technology and stand off precision

97
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 4: weapons has an overwhelming advantage over Iran, whose air defenses

98
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 4: were battled by were battered by Israel last year. Here

99
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 4: is some of the reporting. This is Trey Yinkst on

100
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 4: the ground in Israel talking about the latest yesterday regarding

101
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,559
Speaker 4: the build up of military forces in the region.

102
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 5: A massive amount of US military equipment continues to flood

103
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 5: into the Middle East in preparation for action against Iran.

104
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 1: Reports to indicate the.

105
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 5: US has moved more than FI fifty fighter jets to

106
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 5: the region over the past twenty four hours alone, Along

107
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 5: with the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group already in

108
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 5: place and the USS Gerald R. Ford on the way,

109
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 5: There are a variety of other US Navy assets in

110
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 5: the Red and Mediterranean seas. While talks on Tuesday left

111
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 5: both sides saying that progress was made, there are still

112
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 5: major questions about Iran's willingness to curb their nuclear program

113
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,039
Speaker 5: or address the growing regional ballistic missile threat. Yesterday on

114
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 5: Fox News, Vice President JD. Vance was asked about the negotiations.

115
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: Agreed to meet afterwards.

116
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 6: But in other way is it was very clear that

117
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 6: the President has set some red lines that the Iranians

118
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 6: are not yet willing to actually acknowledge and work through.

119
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: So we're going to keep on working up. But of

120
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: course the President.

121
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 6: Reserves the ability to say when he thinks that diplomacy

122
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 6: has reached its natural end. We hope it will get

123
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 6: to that point, but if we do, that'll be the

124
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 6: president's call.

125
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 5: The Iranians continue to threaten the United States, from the

126
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 5: Supreme Leader to lower level commanders. The IRGC has promised

127
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 5: to go after American military interest in the event of

128
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 5: escalation in the region. Around's president has tried to strike

129
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 5: a more diplomatic tone on nuclear issues despite the threatening

130
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 5: rhetoric from the rest of Iranian leadership.

131
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 7: We have stated these many times. My own statements are

132
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 7: not important. What matters from an ideological standpoint is the

133
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 7: policy and the fautois of the Supreme Leader. We are

134
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 7: in no way seeking nuclear weapons, whatever form of verification

135
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 7: they want to carry out. We are ready for that

136
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 7: verification to take place.

137
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 5: Here in Israel. Officials reportedly believe war could erupt in

138
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 5: a matter of days and are preparing accordingly.

139
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: So we'll keep on this.

140
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 4: I want to bring you some of the reports out

141
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 4: of Axios also online. Ocin Defender has been posting constantly

142
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 4: regarding the military build up. I want to share a

143
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 4: bit of what he has been posting on x We'll

144
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 4: hear from Ted Cruz and Caroline at the White House

145
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 4: Press Secretary regarding the issue as Trump meets with advisors

146
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 4: on Iran, as the war threat grows. And hey, I

147
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 4: was I was right in my initial assessment. Thank you

148
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 4: to a friend of the show, Ton and others. Apparently the

149
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 4: arrest of King of King Charles's brother, ex Prince Andrew

150
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 4: is Epstein related, so my assumptions on that ended up

151
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 4: being correct.

152
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 3: You're fascinating to talk to.

153
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,560

00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 4: Am eleven thirty and one oh three five FM.

162
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: Good Morning and I Love Your Show.

163
00:08:54,200 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 4: Trump moved closer to a major war with Iran Axios

164
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 4: on top of this story and pretty much before everybody

165
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 4: else Twin Cities News Talk John Justice Glaudia with the

166
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 4: show This Morning Devons and the Master Control Booth Justice

168
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 4: on the iHeartRadio app. We'll get to those in just

169
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 4: a moment. Sources noted that it would likely be a

170
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 4: joint US Israeli campaign, much broader in scope and more

171
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 4: existential for the regime than the Israeli led Twelve Day

172
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 4: War last June, which the US eventually joined to take

173
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 4: out Iran's underground nuclear facilities. In such a war would

174
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 4: have a dramatic influence on the entire region and major

175
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 4: implications for the remaining three years of Trump's presidency. Again,

176
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 4: working off the Axios article, with the attention of Congress

177
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 4: and the public otherwise occupied, there's very little public debate

178
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 4: about what could be the most consequential US military intervention

179
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 4: in the Middle East in the last decade. Listen, you

180
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 4: go to some the reporting here, and I'm looking at

181
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 4: some of the posts from ocint Defender online. For example, yesterday,

182
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 4: one of the busiest days for the US Air Force

183
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 4: in Europe seen in recent history. Close to a dozen

184
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 4: casey one thirty five RT Strata tankers airborne across the

185
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 4: Mediterranean and off the Ghost of Spain, while a steady

186
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 4: line of C seventeen a g Lobe Master threes seen

187
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 4: heading toward and returning from bases in the Middle East.

188
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 4: This Israel has raised its alert level, stepping up military

189
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 4: preparations amid the growing indications of a potential joint to

190
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 4: American Israeli attack on Iran in the coming days. According

191
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 4: to sources to a CNN, the Israeli Home Front Command

192
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 4: has been instructed to prepare for a full scale war

193
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 4: with Iran at a high level. Defense alert has been

194
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 4: declared across Israel as well. Yeah, again, the amount of hardware,

195
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 4: that's just a sample of the amount of hardware in

196
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,319
Speaker 4: the region right now. Now again, it's the most military

197
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 4: that we've had in that area going.

198
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: Back to the Gulf War, and it's eclipsed that.

199
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 8: Now.

200
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: Trump came close to striking.

201
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 4: Iran in early January over the killing of the thousands

202
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 4: of protesters by the regime, but when the window of

203
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 4: opportunity passed and the administration shifted to a two track approach,

204
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 4: the nuclear talks paired with a massive military.

205
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: Build up that ensued.

206
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 4: And as I disagree with some of the assessments made

207
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 4: by Axios here, Trump is a negotiator and what he's

208
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 4: doing right now could be a massive negotiation tactic. Put

209
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 4: all this military might on the doorstep of Iran while

210
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 4: you work on substantial negotiations regarding their nuclear program and

211
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 4: even perhaps a regime change from within without military intervention.

212
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 4: If the talks break down, then we have options on

213
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 4: the table. And from what it looks like, the talks

214
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 4: are not going as well as the administration and others

215
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 4: would hope, delaying and bringing so much force to bear.

216
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 4: Trump has now raised expectations for an operation and what

217
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 4: it would look like if a deal can't be reached,

218
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 4: And as Axios is reporting and I just mentioned as

219
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 4: if right now a deal does not look likely, both

220
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 4: sides said the talks made progress, but the gaps are

221
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 4: wide and US officials aren't too optimistic about closing them,

222
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,920
Speaker 4: and there's a lot of speculation that Iran is delaying

223
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,199
Speaker 4: coming to any sort of agreement, trying to call our

224
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 4: bluff while we try to go and call their bluff.

225
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 4: Vice President jd Vance told Fox News the talks went

226
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 4: well in some ways, but in other ways it was

227
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 4: very clear the President has set some redlines and the

228
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 4: Iranians are not yet willing to actually acknowledge or work

229
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 4: through them. He did make it clear that Trump wants

230
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 4: a deal, and it could determine that diplomacy has reached

231
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 4: its natural end. The standoff with Iran has gone on

232
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 4: so long that many Americans, again are likely numb to it.

233
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 4: The media hasn't talking about this at all. It's been

234
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 4: kind of comical. Actually, I put up a post on

235
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 4: social media just over the fact that I don't think

236
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 4: the vast majority of Americans are even aware of how

237
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 4: close we are right now to a war with Iran.

238
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 4: I don't think most Americans are even aware of the

239
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:21,239
Speaker 4: amount of military unless you are actually serving in the military,

240
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 4: or a part of a family who has members that

241
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 4: are serving in our armed forces. The Israeli government, which

242
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 4: is pushing for a maximalist scenario targeting the regime change

243
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 4: as well as it's Iran's nuclear and missile programs, is preparing,

244
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 4: according to the report from Axios, for a scenario of

245
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 4: war within days. There's no evidence a diplomatic breakthrough with

246
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 4: Iran is on the horizon. More and more evidence that

247
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 4: war is eminent now again. As of yesterday, a couple

248
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 4: of posts that I found online regarding this for most

249
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 4: In Defender, Israeli officials assessed the zero hour may just

250
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:00,080
Speaker 4: be days away.

251
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 1: This was yesterday.

252
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:08,680
Speaker 4: Multiple indicators, some undisclosed, pointing to potentially imminent escalations. Israeli

253
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 4: media outlets have been claiming the US is about to

254
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 4: attack Iran. They've been doing this since early January. Osin

255
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 4: Defender went on to write, the Trump administration is preparing

256
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 4: for a major war that would likely consist of a

257
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 4: massive weeks long campaign by Israel in the United States

258
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 4: that would look more like a full fledged war than

259
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 4: the last month and the Pinpoint operation in Venezuela. Again,

260
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 4: according to Axios, the Boss is getting fed up. Some

261
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 4: people around him are warning about going to war with Iran.

262
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 4: But think there's a ninety percent chance we see kinetic

263
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 4: action in the next few weeks Israeli government, which again

264
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 4: is pushing for the scenario of a regime change and

265
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 4: then stopping the nuclear weapon and missile program. Listen, In

266
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 4: my opinion, this is not about necessarily starting a new war,

267
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 4: even though this would be what is taking place, but

268
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 4: ultimately preventing a larger one where our allies are at

269
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 4: a disadvantage with the moves being made in Venezuela, with

270
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 4: what we're seeing right now in terms of expectations on

271
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 4: Taiwan and China, there's a lot of volatility right now.

272
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 4: But Trump clearly wants to maximize his time in office

273
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 4: to bring about peace on the global stage, and in

274
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 4: doing so, he's taking a peace through strength approach. The

275
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 4: time of meek and feckless leadership is over, regardless of

276
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 4: the political or electoral fallout, because this probably would not

277
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 4: bode well when it comes to the elections later this year,

278
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 4: probably would be a strain on the economy. I don't

279
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 4: deny that at all if we got into a war,

280
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 4: depending on how things played out, if the operation ended

281
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 4: up being as smooth as Venezuela, fantastic, But this is

282
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 4: a much more complicated situation fighting back against an enemy

283
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 4: that also has the chance to fight back against our

284
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 4: allies and us as well. But doing the right thing,

285
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 4: meaning you do what is necessary. I have further examples

286
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 4: of this later on, because Trump yesterday, talking about what's

287
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 4: been taking place here in the United States, says he

288
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 4: could possibly issue an executive order on voter ID at

289
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 4: the legislation ends up failing now legally, whether or not

290
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 4: he can actually do that remains to be seen, but

291
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 4: it does go and point to again Trump is eager

292
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 4: to maximize his presidency and is doing what he feels

293
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 4: is necessary, not only on the global stage, but also

294
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 4: within the United States, even at the risk of midterm elections.

295
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 4: So coming up one more item on note Trump meeting

296
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 4: with advisors on IRAN. I'll play you some audio from

297
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 4: Ted Cruz and Carol Line Levett. Also what it would

298
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 4: entail this executive ID that Trump was talking about yesterday,

299
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 4: And moving over to the issue of immigration, the Department

300
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 4: of Transportation is now targeting transit aid for illegal migrants.

301
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 4: I'll give you details on that and we will hear

302
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 4: from you and the iHeartRadio app those talkback's brought to

303
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 4: you by Lyndahl Realty next right here on Twin City's

304
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 4: News Talk Am eleven thirty and one oh three five

305
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 4: FM Heart radio station.

306
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,439
Speaker 8: What threat does Iran pose to America?

307
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 9: None?

308
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 10: Zero?

309
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 11: What threat do they pose to Israel's donors and lobbyists

310
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 11: that pay off our politicians A bunch?

311
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,679
Speaker 9: This is not our war. What are we doing?

312
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: Peace through strength? Baby? What threat does were on post

313
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: to America? None zero.

314
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 4: I disagree with that. Our allies have been threatened for

315
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 4: a long long time. This regime is on the brain.

316
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 4: And if there's an opportunity to bring about regime change

317
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:07,880
Speaker 4: and take the threat of Iran that's been looming there

318
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 4: forever off the table, once and for all, at least

319
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 4: for the foreseeable future, then yeah, I think that we

320
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 4: should absolutely take advantage of that.

321
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: I'll update you further on this.

322
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 4: Trump meets with advisors on Iran as war threat grows.

323
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 4: We'll get to more of your talkbacks as well from

324
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 4: the iHeartRadio app. I do want to update on the

325
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 4: story that broke right as we started this morning. We'll

326
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 4: go to Fox News. According to the BBC, Prince Andrew

327
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 4: arrested it was over ties to Epstein a suspicion of

328
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 4: misconduct in public office after the Trumpet DOJ file drop.

329
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 4: Here is the initial breaking news reporting from Fox News.

330
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 12: So they took the brother of King Charles into custody

331
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 12: on suspicion of misconduct and public office officers reportedly arrived

332
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 12: at the royal estate in eastern England earlier this morning

333
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 12: to make the arrest of the former prince, who turns

334
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 12: sixty six years old today. Andrew is in custody and

335
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 12: investigators are carrying out searches at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk.

336
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 12: Police are releasing this statement in part without naming Andrew,

337
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 12: by the way, saying quote, following a thorough assessment, we

338
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 12: have now opened an investigation into this allegation of misconduct

339
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 12: in public office and offense that carries up to life

340
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 12: in prison in the UK. By the way, we're still

341
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 12: waiting more details of this breaking news, but this comes

342
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 12: after Andrew was stripped of his royal title last October

343
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,960
Speaker 12: over ties to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and after Tim's

344
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 12: Valley police said they were assessing a complaint over the

345
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,199
Speaker 12: alleged sharing of confidential material by the former Prince with

346
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 12: the late sex offender. The former Prince has consistently denied

347
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 12: any wrongdoing. Misconduct in public office refers to quote serious

348
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 12: willful abuse or neglect of powers relating to the role

349
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 12: of public office.

350
00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,159
Speaker 3: We shall see what comes of this.

351
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,199
Speaker 12: Is it developed story, as you guys know, so we'll

352
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 12: keep our viewers updated.

353
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 4: And again that was the initial reporting this morning Prince

354
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 4: Andrew being arrested over ties to Epstein from Fox News.

355
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 4: President Donald Trump met yesterday with top advisors to evaluate

356
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 4: the strategy on Iran's nuclear program. The US and Iran

357
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 4: held the second round of talks on Tehran's nuclear program

358
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 4: Tuesday in Geneva. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, US Special

359
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 4: Envoy Steve Whitcoff, House advisor Jared Kushner, Trump's son and law,

360
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 4: and other officials attended the Wednesday meeting.

361
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 1: A second US official.

362
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 4: Did express deep skepticism and said that the talks in

363
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 4: Geneva were a nothing burger, and this goes back to

364
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 4: that initial Axios reporting. Caroline Levitt during the White House

365
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 4: Press briefing yesterday had this to say over the justification

366
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,919
Speaker 4: for potential military action against Iran, on who.

367
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 13: He's talking to what information he's consuming and why a

368
00:20:58,240 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 13: strike might be.

369
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 4: Necessary on an nuclear program he says was obliterated by the.

370
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 1: Last US strike.

371
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 14: Well, there's many reasons and arguments that one could make

372
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 14: for a strike against the against Iran. The President had

373
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 14: a very successful operation as Commander in Chief with Operation

374
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 14: mid Night Hammer, as you know, as you just said,

375
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,919
Speaker 14: totally obliterated Iran's nuclear facilities. The President has always been

376
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 14: very clear though, with respect to Iran or any country

377
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 14: around the world, diplomacy is always his first option, and

378
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 14: Iran would be very wise to make a deal with

379
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 14: President Trump. And with this administration, he's talking to many people.

380
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 14: Of course, his National Security team first and foremost, and

381
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 14: you know who the members of that team are. And

382
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 14: this is something obviously the President takes seriously. He's always

383
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 14: thinking about what's in the best interests of the United

384
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 14: States of America, of our military, of the American people,

385
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 14: and that's how he makes decisions with respect to military

386
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 14: action of any kind.

387
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 13: John, I heard some reporting that Russia is taking part

388
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 13: in war games with Iran, and only.

389
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,840
Speaker 15: A couple hundred miles away from that our mode that

390
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 15: we sent over there.

391
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 9: Do you know anything about that.

392
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've heard the similar reporting as well that there

393
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 4: are Russian assets in the area, there were training exercises

394
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 4: going on. I do not know beyond that though, what

395
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 4: the potential impact would be were we to take military action,

396
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 4: even as soon as this weekend. I want to bring

397
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 4: you the most recent report from CBS News here.

398
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: In just a moment on Twin City's News Talk. Good morning, John.

399
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 10: With consideration with to Iran, I think the most important

400
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 10: thing is hitting their capability to close the Straight.

401
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 3: Of Horne moves.

402
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 10: As if you ask me, that's the biggest thing is

403
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 10: that Straight of Horne moves has got to stay open

404
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 10: because that affects way more people, like you know, a

405
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 10: third of the country there. So definitely got to hit

406
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 10: that Navy and a bunch of the missile sites and

407
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 10: stuff well.

408
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 4: And I trust the administration because I've heard many people

409
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 4: ment exactly that same concern, Tim, and I trust the

410
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 4: administration obviously is aware of that, and we'll make means

411
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 4: and take action to go and protect that because it

412
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 4: wouldn't take much to go and paralyze that straight I mean,

413
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 4: you have one conflict with any ship traveling through the

414
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 4: Strait and suddenly you're going to see nobody's going to

415
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 4: want to travel through there, which could be devastating to

416
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 4: the global economy, to the transfer of oil. So again

417
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 4: I suspect that more than likely the administration is fully

418
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,640
Speaker 4: aware of that as well and will take the needed

419
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 4: action to protect the Strait of Ormuz.

420
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: Let's go in here. From a friend of the show.

421
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 16: Tom, I suspect the Iran situation is yet another show

422
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 16: of forest designed to get another nation to capitulate.

423
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: And it will probably work.

424
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 16: But regardless, it's precisely the type of situation that tentative

425
00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 16: Trump supporters thought we were going to avoid debt deficits

426
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 16: as fur ASDI could see Americans genuinely hurting. Yet here

427
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 16: we go again, intervening halfway across the world. They're going

428
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 16: to have a tough sell painting this as a national

429
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 16: security issue before the midterms.

430
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 4: And I don't mean to take a polly in a

431
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 4: view on this, Tom, I appreciate your comments. What I'm

432
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 4: about to say is not aimed at you at all,

433
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,479
Speaker 4: is just in response to what you said, specifically with

434
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 4: regard to national security issues and selling this before the

435
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 4: midterms and the fact that it might turn trepid Trump

436
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 4: supporters off.

437
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 1: I don't care. I don't.

438
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 4: I trust in my Lord and Savior. Okay, everything happens

439
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 4: for a reason. I don't believe that globally or nationally,

440
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 4: we can continue or could continue on the path that

441
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 4: we've been on. These actions of capitulation, billions, if not more,

442
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 4: of taxpayer dollars being funneled overseas to try to appease

443
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 4: our enemies year after year, decade after decade.

444
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,120
Speaker 1: I'm over it. I'm tired of it.

445
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 4: I'm tired of the threats, the bluster, our allies being

446
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 4: under the threat of attack or being attacked. And if

447
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 4: this administration is willing to do what is necessary to

448
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 4: move forward to shore up peace on the world stage,

449
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 4: to shore up our election integrity by doing a talking

450
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 4: filibuster or nuking the filibuster, regardless of the outcome of

451
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 4: the midterms, so that we can bring about voter integrity.

452
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 4: Just a number of different issues, deporting those here in

453
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 4: the country illegally, going into cities in a show of force,

454
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 4: even if you're going to face public opposition, ridiculous criticism

455
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 4: coming from the left and insurrectionists, and obstructions, I'm very

456
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 4: much on the side of peace through strength at this

457
00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 4: point in time, and the way that we were doing

458
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 4: things was unsustainable. It was part of the reason why

459
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 4: I support this. Here's the latest is I look over

460
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 4: some of your talkbacks from CBS overnight where we are

461
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 4: now currently with the military build up and how soon

462
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 4: this potential strike against Iran could take place.

463
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 17: The breaking news tonight a potential military strike on Iran

464
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 17: could happen as soon as Saturday. According to top national

465
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 17: security officials, President Trump has already positioned US warships and

466
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 17: fighter jets in the region as nuclear talks continue with Iran.

467
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 17: Senior White House course wanted at O'Keefe has the latest

468
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 17: ed Good evening.

469
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 1: What are you hearing, tony sources tell CBS who.

470
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 15: As the President hasn't yet made a final decision on

471
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 15: whether to strike, conversations about potential military action are described

472
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 15: as fluid and ongoing as the White House waives the

473
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 15: political and military risks of escalation. The President has said

474
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 15: he would consider strikes if Iran doesn't agree to curb

475
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 15: its nuclear weapons program. The Pentagon is moving some personnel

476
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 15: temporarily out of the Middle East region over the next

477
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 15: three days. They're headed primarily to Europe or back here

478
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 15: to the ahead of any potential action or counterattacks by Iran.

479
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,640
Speaker 17: All right, and you mentioned the military assets.

480
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 1: What kind of assets are being sent there?

481
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 15: Well, there are usually at least thirty to forty thousand

482
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 15: US troops in the region. There are at least eleven

483
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 15: warships right now, including the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier

484
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 15: in the region. A second carrier group led by the

485
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 15: USS Gerald Ford, plus three other ships is en route.

486
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 15: Fifty US aircraft flew into the region just today. One

487
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 15: potential military target is Iron's ballistic missile sites. The Israelis

488
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 15: have been raising concerns about the increased development of Iron's

489
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,199
Speaker 15: missile program since a late December meeting with President Trump.

490
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 15: He told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin NANYAHUUO at that meeting

491
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 15: he would support Israeli strikes on Iran's ballistic missiles if

492
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 15: a nuclear deal can't be reached.

493
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 4: And again that's a reporting from CBS News. The parallels

494
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 4: of all of these different stories, they're clear as day.

495
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 4: It really just comes down to a mentality of left

496
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 4: versus right.

497
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: On the global stage.

498
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 4: We've had this mentality of well, we'll just appease our enemies.

499
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 4: We'll let them do a little bit of what they

500
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 4: want to do. They're not all that bad. We'll get

501
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 4: them a bunch of money that way. They want attack

502
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 4: our allies. It's fine with the illegal aliens in the country,

503
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 4: they're not bothering anybody. Sure, we should probably go and

504
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 4: arrest maybe those that have done criminal activity beyond coming

505
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 4: into the country illegally. But we can't go about just

506
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 4: supporting everybody because they're here illegal.

507
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: Some people have been here for a really long time. Listen,

508
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 1: the list goes on and on and on. Voter ID.

509
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 4: Oh, we can't go and have people have to show ID.

510
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 4: Married women won't be able to go and vote if

511
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 4: we do that. They have to show an ID when

512
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 4: you go to the library. But you know this is

513
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 4: different though, This is voter suppression. You get my point, Moorn,

514
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 4: than everybody.

515
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 18: It's Chad and Dellan oll hey, Chaed yep, Tom No,

516
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 18: I voted for that and doesn't do anything with my

517
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 18: support for Trump. Aren't they the people that say death

518
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 18: to America. I'm pretty sure they'd say that, so that

519
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 18: could be a national security risk. But anyways, have a

520
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 18: great day, everybody, drives safe, all right.

521
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 4: The same people that are saying that we shouldn't do

522
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 4: anything about Iran because oh, it's.

523
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 8: All about Israel are the same ones.

524
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 4: That we're saying, all, you know, always should give Ukraine

525
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 4: everything everything.

526
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: It's just hypocritical to it on the idea that Iron

527
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: is no threat. I actually think there.

528
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 8: Would be a huge piece dividend if that regime would

529
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 8: change the amount of money we spend helping other countries

530
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 8: in the area defend themselves from the weird tactical things

531
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 8: that Iran funds.

532
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,040
Speaker 9: Would be much more peaceful over there.

533
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 4: By the way, expect if this strike takes place, expect

534
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 4: a shift in Democrat narratives. I would anticipate and seeing

535
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 4: a lot of Iranian flags suddenly pop up out of

536
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 4: nowhere and more than likely tied to even locally. The

537
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 4: continued pushback against the Ice. The ongoing ICE operations is

538
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 4: the drawdown of Operation Metro Surge continues.

539
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 1: Ted Cruz was.

540
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 4: Asked about this on Fox News, lays out what he

541
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 4: believes the ramifications of a strike on Iran would end up,

542
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 4: meaning he combines this with what's been going on in Venezuela,

543
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 4: Cuba as well.

544
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 1: It is entirely possible.

545
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 19: Sean that in the next six months we will see

546
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 19: the regimes fall in Iran, in Venezuela, and in Cuba,

547
00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 19: and we could also see governments replace them that want

548
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 19: to be friends with the United States of America. Now,

549
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 19: let me be clear, I'm not being pollyannish about this.

550
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 19: There are a thousand things that can.

551
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: Go on, That's what I said.

552
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 19: But if that happens, this would be the most consequential

553
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 19: geopolitical shift since the fall of the Berlin Wall, since

554
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 19: America won the Cold War without firing a shot. I

555
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 19: spoke with President Trump the day before yesterday, and we

556
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 19: talked in particular about Iran, and I said, this moment,

557
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 19: the regime is teetering, the Iyatola is in his last days,

558
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 19: and I said, do not let this opportunity pass.

559
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: We have an opportunity.

560
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 19: The Iatola routinely chance death to America. This is a

561
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 19: regime that is the leading state sponsor of terrorism on

562
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 19: the face of the planet, is responsible for murdering hundreds

563
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 19: of American servicemen and women.

564
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: The Iranian regime has.

565
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 19: Provided over ninety percent of the funding for HAMAS and

566
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 19: for HESBLA. To see the Mullahs toppled would be a

567
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 19: tremendous advance for the people of Iran, it would be

568
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 19: a tremendous advance answer for the Middle East. But most critically,

569
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 19: it would be a massive improvement in the national security

570
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 19: of the United States. I believe President Trump is providing

571
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 19: the leadership that is necessary and it's making our country

572
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 19: a lot safer.

573
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 20: Hey, John, Max Forvanover and Max, I was going to

574
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 20: give you a talk back, but pretty much everything that

575
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 20: you just said, everything happens for a reason. Everything you

576
00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 20: literally said was correct, and you literally took the words

577
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 20: out of my mouth. And that's why I love listening

578
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 20: to your show. Thank you, Thank you, Max.

579
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,720
Speaker 1: I definitely I appreciate the talkback.

580
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 21: Good morning guys. Corey from Texas, I I agree on

581
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 21: Tom's comment is talkback, but with one caveat that if

582
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 21: this goes well and is over quickly, it's going to

583
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 21: be just fine. Just like Venezuela. And you know, everybody

584
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 21: blew up over that over a week or two and

585
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 21: now you don't even hear about it. So it's a gamble.

586
00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 21: It's got to go well and go quick. It'll be fine.

587
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 21: If not, it could be a mess. On the Mint Terms.

588
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 4: It's interesting because there's such a lack of coverage. There's

589
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 4: been a lack of coverage leading up to what could

590
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 4: be strike on Iran this weekend because of the nature

591
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 4: of what I do. I follow this stuff, and I

592
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 4: can tell you there's just been no discussion. I've been

593
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 4: following this from secondary sources. This was up until the

594
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 4: Axios report and much of the commentary around that Axios

595
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 4: report leading to the Wall Street Journal and now some

596
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 4: coverage on the mainstream media, but even Fox News has

597
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 4: barely touched upon it apart from top of the hour

598
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 4: quick headlines and just a quick overview of what's taking place.

599
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 4: To Corey, I think part of the reason why there's

600
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 4: been so little coverage as one, the administration hasn't been

601
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 4: putting out a lot. Most people are saying the administration

602
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 4: is what fueled intentionally that Axios article, just to sort

603
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 4: of establish a baseline of what this operation against Iran

604
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 4: might potentially look like. But also I think the administration

605
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 4: is hoping that while this would be a longer operation

606
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 4: than what we saw in Venezuela, they're hoping that what

607
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 4: you said takes place, this would be over quickly. In

608
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 4: which case, if it is, there's regime change for the

609
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 4: first time in Iran, and I got a couple of

610
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 4: great talkbacks regarding this. Then it ends up being a

611
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,479
Speaker 4: non issue for the midterms, and we did the right

612
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 4: thing in the end.

613
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 11: Good morning, John. Whether we want to admit it or not,

614
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 11: Iran has been at war with the United States for

615
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:33,760
Speaker 11: the last fifty years. They've killed thousands of US troops

616
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 11: in Afghanistan and other places. I think Trump is going

617
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 11: to give them every opportunity to avoid conflict. But at

618
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 11: the end of the day, if he acts, it's because

619
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 11: of long term piece that he's looking at after he's

620
00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 11: out of office.

621
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 9: Hey, John, it spring from put some future. I think

622
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 9: what they're doing a secret negotiations with the MOLA is

623
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 9: to get him out alive. If they don't accept, and

624
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 9: we'll take them out, we'll also neutralize the Iranian Guard,

625
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 9: We'll protect the straight of Horror moves. This restricts the

626
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:11,920
Speaker 9: full of oil to China and Russia, including the drones

627
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,440
Speaker 9: to Russia, and that neutral or changes the world dynamics,

628
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:16,920
Speaker 9: the world power dynamics.

629
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 4: If you haven't had the opportunity, just if you're curious,

630
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 4: because I find this stuff incredibly interesting.

631
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 3: You're fascinating to talk to.

632
00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 4: But if you get a chance, just to look at

633
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 4: the maps that have been put forward online and I'll

634
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 4: do a repost on my personal account John Justice j

635
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 4: Owen and the TC news talk account. But looking at

636
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 4: the map of the region and the hardware that we

637
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 4: have over there, it is absolutely incredible to see. To

638
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 4: that point, I want to share this talk back.

639
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 1: Coome on to John See.

640
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 13: I'd just like to give a huge shout out to

641
00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,000
Speaker 13: the men and women that are making this build up

642
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 13: in Europe in the Middle East possible. My nephew was

643
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:03,359
Speaker 13: for a long weekend threw over replaced the cruise from

644
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 13: our local space. I'm just so proud of our men

645
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 13: and women.

646
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, and now it would be the time to put

647
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 4: out a prayer to make sure that our brave men

648
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:19,600
Speaker 4: and women overseas stay safe regardless of whether or not

649
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,360
Speaker 4: we strike or not. They're in harm's way currently and

650
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 4: we pray for their safe return and that if these

651
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 4: efforts do move forward, that the operation would go as

652
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,960
Speaker 4: the administration is hoping now again, whether it is securing

653
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 4: the planet for decades to come with peace through strength

654
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 4: or shoring up our election integrity. As I mentioned earlier,

655
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:45,319
Speaker 4: Trump seems eager to maximize his presidency, saying that he

656
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 4: would issue an executive order on voter ID at the

657
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 4: legislation fails. This is an issue that must be fought,

658
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 4: and must be fought now if we can't get it

659
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 4: through Congress. There are legal reasons why this scam is

660
00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,799
Speaker 4: not permitted. I will be presenting them shortly in the

661
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 4: form of an executive order. He posted this on social media.

662
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 4: In an earlier post on social media, Trump claimed that

663
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,919
Speaker 4: Democrats are not in favor of voter ID laws because

664
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 4: they want to cheat in elections. This was not what

665
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:16,800
Speaker 4: our founders desired. I've searched the depths of legal arguments

666
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 4: and not yet articulated or vetted on this subject, and

667
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:23,279
Speaker 4: will be presenting an irrefutable one in the.

668
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:24,320
Speaker 1: Very near future.

669
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 4: There will be voter ID for midterm elections, whether approved

670
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 4: by Congress or not. Also, the people of our country

671
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 4: are insisting on citizenship, no mail in ballots, with exceptions

672
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 4: for a military disability, illness, or travel, he added. Now,

673
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 4: of course, the latest comments come as the Senate continues

674
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 4: to haggle over the Save America Act. Narrowly passed by

675
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 4: the House last week. Trump and top Republicans arguing that

676
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 4: the revised bill of course is necessary to protect the

677
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 4: country's election process before these mid terms take place. Carolina

678
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,760
Speaker 4: Levitt was asked about this yesterday during that White House

679
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 4: Press of briefing as well. I do want to get

680
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 4: to some of her thoughts here in just a moment.

681
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 4: It's not the first time Trump has said that he

682
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 4: would change elections via executive order. Trump issued a similar

683
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,120
Speaker 4: threat in August. Last month, he signed the executive order

684
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 4: titled Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections, which

685
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 4: sought to require voters to prove their citizenship upon registration.

686
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 4: The order directed the Election Assistants Commission to update the

687
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 4: Federal voter Registration form to include the requirement for documentary

688
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 4: proof of citizenship. That order was challenged in multiple lawsuits

689
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:43,760
Speaker 4: trying to style me the administration's efforts. In a decision

690
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 4: to last April, one federal judge says Trump's attempt to

691
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 4: reshape the election process by executive order exceeded his authority

692
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 4: and listen, I'll leave it up to the courts, hopefully

693
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 4: not an activist judge to go and determine whether or

694
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 4: not Trump has any illegal standing to move forward with

695
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,520
Speaker 4: an executive order on this. My hope is that one

696
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 4: this isn't necessary, and that the Senate does what's necessary,

697
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 4: and that is either nuke the filibuster or go with

698
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 4: the talking filibuster and get the Save America Act pasted

699
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,359
Speaker 4: orright coming up, I will play a couple of those

700
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 4: clips from Caroline Levi at the White House Press Secretary.

701
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 4: The Trumpet administration turning our attention over to immigration is

702
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,319
Speaker 4: pushing a legal change that could block states, cities, and

703
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:33,359
Speaker 4: towns from offering free transportation to illegal immigrants. Plus, I'll

704
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 4: only play a snippet, just a snippet. But rock band

705
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:43,560
Speaker 4: you Two, they've released a tribute song to honor Renee Good.

706
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: I do have a sample of it. Again, I'll just

707
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 1: play you with snippet.

708
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,359
Speaker 4: We'll get back to more of your talkbacks as well

709
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,879
Speaker 4: from the iHeartRadio app. It's all coming up on Twin

710
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 4: City's News Talk Am eleven thirty and one oh three

711
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:53,919
Speaker 4: five FM.

712
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:54,760
Speaker 1: Don't go Anywhere.

713
00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 4: The best part Awaken Up is no last drop
