1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: President Trump yet again keeping it sweet and simple. At

2
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: the White House today in the Oval Office, he was

3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:10,879
Speaker 1: asked about what's happening with Iran, and the President had

4
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: this to say to the press.

5
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 2: We have ships heading to a run right now, big ones,

6
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:16,920
Speaker 2: the biggest of the best.

7
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,280
Speaker 3: And do we have talks going on with I run.

8
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 3: We'll see it all works out.

9
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 4: Well, see how it all works out.

10
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 5: Now.

11
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: This comes just days after the President had this to

12
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: say inside the Oval Office about Iran as well.

13
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 2: Okay, we have a large armada flotilla, got whatever you

14
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 2: want heading forward Iran right now, even larger than what

15
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 2: we had in Venezuela. It's still in front of the Venezuelan.

16
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: This showing the presence not bluffing. He also over the weekend,

17
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: when asked at mar Lago about what's happening in Iran,

18
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: said this, Why wouldn't he say that?

19
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 2: A push you're going to say that, But we have

20
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 2: the big us been off of ships in the world

21
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 2: over there very close a couple of days, and hopefully

22
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 2: we'll make a deal. We don't make a deal then,

23
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 2: and we'll find out whether or not he was.

24
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 4: Right, find out or not whether he was right.

25
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: The President was referencing a rand supreme leader warning of

26
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 1: a regional war if the US attacks Tehran, and the

27
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: President saying, hey, if we don't make a deal, then

28
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 1: we'll find out whether or not he was right, which

29
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: brings us to where we are right now. With all

30
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: of this, Wikoff has now said that the talks with

31
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: nukes will happen on Friday with Iran.

32
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:35,839
Speaker 4: That's right.

33
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 1: The US Special Envoyd and the Iranian Foreign Minister are

34
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: expected to meet in Istanbul, marking a potential restart of

35
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 1: direct engagement between Washington and Tehran after months of stalled diplomacy.

36
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: Several Arab and Muslim countries are expected to send representatives

37
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: to the meeting, which ames discussed the framework for a

38
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: possible nuclear agreement that according to two source is familiar

39
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: with the planning and a US official. Another source described

40
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: Friday's meetings as the best case scenario following days of

41
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 1: diplomatic efforts to bring both sides back to the table now.

42
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: If it occurs, the meeting would be the first between

43
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: the US and the Iranian representative since talks collapsed last

44
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: year and a twelve day conflict that broke out in June.

45
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: It also comes during a significant US military build up

46
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 1: in the Gulf. President Trump has argued that a swift

47
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: agreement is the only alternative to military confrontation with Iran. Now,

48
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: a US administration source said the meeting in Turkey is

49
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 1: intended to develop an agreement that could in fact prevent escalation.

50
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: The Trump administration is also hoping that Iran will arrive

51
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: prepared to make concessions. The plan talks follow recent mediation

52
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: efforts by Turkey, Egypt, and Katar. They don't want war

53
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: in the Middle East because of instant ability that it

54
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: can cost for their own countries, and on Monday, the

55
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: foreign ministers of Turkey, Saudi Arabian Egypt held further discussions

56
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: about the proposed meeting. Now, the Iranian state media reported

57
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: that the president has ordered renewed negotiations with the Trump administrations.

58
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: In fact, in a speech on Monday to Iran and

59
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: the people they're watching, they said they were quote open

60
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 1: to diplomacy, saying, quote but diplomacy is incompatible with pressure, intimidation,

61
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: and force. We hope that it results will soon become evident.

62
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 1: A key obstacle also remains unsolved. The Trump administration has

63
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: insisted that any agreement address Iran's nuclear program, its missile development,

64
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: and regional proxy forces. They're the biggest funders of terrorism.

65
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: Hamas And has blocked. Iran maintains that only nuclear issues

66
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: are quote negotiable. In other words, they still want to

67
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: sponsored terrorist proxies in the Middle East and around the world. Now,

68
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: it remains unclear how Witkoff and Iran's leadership would bridge

69
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: that divide. Obviously, that's part of the art of the deal,

70
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,119
Speaker 1: and that's part of why the President of the United

71
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: States of America said, I'm not wasting time. I'm going to

72
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: send her military resources to that part of the world.

73
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 6: Now.

74
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: A head of the Istanbul meeting, Witkoff was to travel

75
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: to Israel and meet with the Prime Minister there at

76
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: Netanyahu's request. Witkoff is also scheduled to meet with General Zamir,

77
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: the Israeli Defensive Force chief of staff, who recently briefed

78
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: US military leaders on Israel's planning for a potential conflict

79
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 1: with Iran. Witkoff will then travel to Abu Dhabi, United

80
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: Air of Emirates for trilateral talks also involving Russia and

81
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: Ukraine on Wednesday and Thursday, and Trump's son in law

82
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: Jared Kushner is expected to participate as well. From there,

83
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: the White House, staying busy with Witkoff and kush Ser

84
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: said to travel to Qatar for discussions on Iran with

85
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: the Qatar's Prime minister, and before the meeting, they'll also

86
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: stop in Istanbul on Friday. Now, the foreign ministers were

87
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: being told from Turkey, Qatar, Egypt, Oman, the United Air

88
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: of Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan are all planning to attend.

89
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: You've got to ask yourself this question. Why, Because they're

90
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: all very concerned about what happens with Iran and the

91
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 1: instability it can cause in their countries and also if

92
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 1: there's an all out war between Iran and Israel or

93
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: Ran in the US. Right, these are real problems that

94
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 1: they want to make sure don't happen for them personally. Now,

95
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: Trump said on Sunday that it remains quote hopeful for

96
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: a deal after Rand's leader warned that any US attack

97
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 1: could trigger a regional war. But at the end of

98
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: the day, this is all up to President Trump. Now

99
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: there are some thank goodness in the media, then understand

100
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: that President Trump said an amazing job when it comes

101
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 1: to dealing with these types of dictators and leaders, whether

102
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: it's Venezuela or Cuba or Iran. Even on HBO, Bill

103
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: Maher giving credit to the President of United States of

104
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,679
Speaker 1: America for his leadership, saying this.

105
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 3: You know, we've seen these demonstrations in Iran before, but

106
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 3: this was bigger and more people have died. But I

107
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 3: think maybe more people have died because.

108
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 4: He said he was going to help. This looks like

109
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 4: a bay of pigs.

110
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 3: To me, this looks like America is going to come

111
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 3: and help you. Where is it this? Remember the courage

112
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 3: in ninety one when they thought they were going to

113
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 3: get help from America. Vietnam could make the same claim.

114
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 3: I mean a lot of people have felt let down

115
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 3: by US. I thought Trump was different. Where are you

116
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 3: on this because all these bodies that I see, these

117
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 3: body bags in Iran, I think a lot of those

118
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 3: people went in the streets because they thought, oh, he

119
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 3: said he's got our back this time.

120
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 4: Where's the help.

121
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 7: Well, the generals have told us that of sending in

122
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 7: a massive number of troops, it will be another raq.

123
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 3: Well then what did he mean when he said I

124
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 3: don't know.

125
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 7: But but if you look at it from a larger

126
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 7: if you look at it from a larger.

127
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 8: Perspective, because of Israel.

128
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 7: This is one person's opinion. Because of Israel and President

129
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 7: Trump's backing visory, the Middle East is safer than it

130
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 7: has been in twenty years. Absolutely, Sneeze, Boss Sneeze.

131
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 4: I gave him credit for that.

132
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 7: No longer looks invincible. And you know, and you know

133
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 7: who is applauding us every step of the way, not

134
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 7: out loud, but the Arab countries.

135
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 3: Look if every one of them, If Venezuela and causes

136
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 3: Cuba to fall, if he somehow gets Venezuela, Cuba, and

137
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 3: Iran all to be not these horrible places they were,

138
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 3: he should get a Nobel Peace Prize.

139
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 1: He should get a Nobel Peace Prize. I got to

140
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: give credit there to Bill Maher. You heard Senter Kennedy

141
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: laying it out, and he agreed with him. He said

142
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 1: he was absolutely right. And I wish there was more

143
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: in the media that would actually cover this honestly the

144
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 1: way that Bill Maher just talked about it. I wrote

145
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: a book years ago, and after that I stopped writing

146
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: for a very long time. But this week I decided

147
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: to write an op ed that you can read on

148
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: Foxnews dot Com. I'm also going to post a link

149
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: up on social media so you can follow me on

150
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: ex Ben Ferguson's show or on Instagram Ben Ferguson Podcast,

151
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: and you can read the entire article. Now, what made

152
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 1: me decide to write an article is a major issue,

153
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: one of importance, one that Ronald Reagan understood, and that

154
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: is America needs to have dominance in the world when

155
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: it comes to what we're putting out. Yes, I'm talking

156
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: about movies. You may remember that Donald Trump also understood

157
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: this about the importance of television and exporting what America

158
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: and freedom actually looks like. We also have other adversaries

159
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: around the world that want nothing more than to silence

160
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: American movies and put their propaganda everywhere. The biggest person

161
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 1: that's looking to do this is China. They're coming after

162
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: our kids to the point where they had to sell

163
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:19,559
Speaker 1: TikTok to American ownership. They understand the value of silencing

164
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: and censoring different things and people, and that is exactly

165
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:29,319
Speaker 1: why this hearing in Washington, DC today is vitally important and.

166
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 4: It deals with a merger.

167
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: Now I'm going to read for you the op ed

168
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: that I have put together and give you a little

169
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 1: bit of commentary throughout, but I hope that all of

170
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: you will take the op ed and this show and

171
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 1: share it wherever you can, because this hearing actually deals

172
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 1: with national security, putting America first and exporting freedom of

173
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: speech and freedom through the arts.

174
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 4: To the rest of the world.

175
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 1: Today in Washington, a critical hearing will help decide the

176
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: future of America's entertainment into street and America's influence abroad.

177
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 1: The question before lawmakers is simple but consequential. Will the

178
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: United States strengthen its own creative companies or weaken them

179
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: just as foreign avisaries use media, culture and capital to

180
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 1: shape global narratives. At the center of the debate is

181
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: a proposed merger between Netflix and Warner Brothers Discovery. This

182
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,439
Speaker 1: should not be treated as just another corporate deal. That's

183
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: why I'm talking about it right now, By the way,

184
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: on this show. It directly affects American jobs, it directly

185
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:41,959
Speaker 1: affects American movie making, and it directly affects US national security.

186
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: Let me explain why. For more than a century, American

187
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 1: films and television have carried our values around the world

188
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: of freedom, creativity, open expression. The cultural influences have been

189
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: one of America's greatest strategic advantages, and today I would

190
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: say that is under real threat. The entertainment industry supports

191
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,959
Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of good paying American jobs. This includes

192
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: writers and actors, camera crews, editors, visual effects artists, set builders, marketers,

193
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: and engineers, and then don't even count all the people

194
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 1: behind the scenes to get hired for social media and

195
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: things like that. Now, I care about these jobs because

196
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: I work with these people each and every day, and

197
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 1: I understand how important is to keep those jobs in America.

198
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 4: These are also middle class jobs.

199
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: I'll give you a great example today, I'm going to

200
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: basically help employ a team of fifteen people. Why because

201
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,359
Speaker 1: of me doing what I'm doing right now. There are cameramen,

202
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: makeup artists, they're editors, their producers. All of these people

203
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: have jobs right now because of the entertainment industry. Why

204
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: on earth would I want to turn that over to

205
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: a foreign country. Not only is it about that, but

206
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 1: it's also about building the economies in different states. All right,

207
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 1: These jobs are spread all over the country. I'm doing

208
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 1: this right now for you from Texas. You've got states

209
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: like California and Georgia, New Mexico, and New Jersey that

210
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 1: are all growing in this area. We know about movies

211
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,839
Speaker 1: that are made in Georgia, for example. There's a lot

212
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 1: of people that are listening right now. Where you live,

213
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,719
Speaker 1: there is a thriving industry. And if you think this

214
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: is like theoretical, you're wrong. Netflix recently committed one billion

215
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: dollars to build a new production studio at the former

216
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: Fort Mama Army Base in New Jersey, a project that's

217
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 1: expected to create you ready for this, more than five

218
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: thousand high paying American jobs. Now, that doesn't even count

219
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 1: all the jobs that come because of what is produced

220
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: there and all the support for when those jobs wrap

221
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: up and the movies or the content is made available

222
00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: to all of us.

223
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 4: You understand, there's a snowball effect here.

224
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 1: That investment turns a former military base into an engine

225
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: of American production, innovation, and employment. And it only happens

226
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 1: when companies have this scale and the stability to invest

227
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: long term, because this is big money we're talking about here. Streaming, however,

228
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: is capital intensive as well. When companies are weak in

229
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 1: or fragmented, that's when I get worried, right, because production

230
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: slow opportunities shrink, that's when the layoffs happen. Scale brings stability,

231
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 1: Stability protects and creates more American jobs. This is a

232
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: no brainer for me. Now, A combined Netflix and Warner

233
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 1: Brothers Discovery would create not only a stronger but a

234
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,199
Speaker 1: more resilient American company. That's me and my ideals as

235
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 1: an American first guy, and it would create an American

236
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: company able to invest consistently in one thing that matters

237
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: the most to me, US production instead of foreign production.

238
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 1: That means more projects made here at home, and more

239
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: investments like the military base that was just bought. That

240
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:14,559
Speaker 1: is amazing for American job. This is all about protecting

241
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 1: what I say is so important to us, our secret weapon.

242
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 1: Our influence around the world through TV, film and content.

243
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 4: Is massive, all right.

244
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: I look at my podcast and it's incredible how many

245
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,840
Speaker 1: people download it in foreign countries. It's unbelievable the reach

246
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 1: that you can have when you create things here. This

247
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 1: is the reason why I say it is a strategic

248
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: national asset. Let me explain why more American movies and

249
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: I'm going back to my OpEd and television reached more

250
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: people globally than any government program or diplomatic initiative. They

251
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: literally shape how the world views the United States of America,

252
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: and it serves a powerful counterweight to authoritarian propaganda and

253
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: regimes around the world. Now on the other side of

254
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 1: this is China. We all know how much influence China

255
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 1: wants to have on our lives. Go back to what

256
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: just happened with TikTok, right, You're terrified of what can

257
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: happen with TikTok because TikTok being owned by China and

258
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: China hating America and trying to have influence, can change

259
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: the algorithms and put out propaganda to undermine America.

260
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 4: We knew that.

261
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: That's part of the reason why the forced sell to

262
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: American assets was so vitally important for a national security standpoint.

263
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: Now China understands this. It's why they tightly control media

264
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: at home and they heavily invest in state back platforms

265
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: abroad because they want foreign influence. We've already seen how

266
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: that censorship works. I'll give you a great example, Top

267
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: Gun Maverick Love the movie. The film was a massive

268
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: global success, bring in billions of dollars in America and

269
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 1: guests who refused to show it. China China refused to

270
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: allow it to be shown in its theaters. Why because

271
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: of a small patch on Tom Crui's leather flight jacket

272
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 1: depicting the flag of Taiwan. No violence, not offensive content,

273
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: not a diet tribe against China.

274
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 4: It was a.

275
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: Patch on a jacket that ninety nine zero point nine

276
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: percent of the audience would never have even noticed. That

277
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 1: single symbol was enough for Beijing to block the film entirely.

278
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: The message was unmistakable, by the way, unmistakable by the way.

279
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: Access to China's markets require you bowing down to them. Right,

280
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: political compliance and self censorship. Ronald Reagan understood the fight

281
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 1: long before streaming even existed. He knew television and storytelling

282
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: were powerful tools in the battle of ideas, literally going

283
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: after the in the Cold War. He understood that foreign

284
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 1: or communist influence over American media posed a real threat.

285
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: That's why he became so famous when he was fighting

286
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 1: communism in California. As Reagan warned, quote, freedom is never

287
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: more than one generation away from extinction. Protecting American culture

288
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,400
Speaker 1: and the cultural leadership became a cornerstone of his presidency,

289
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:21,360
Speaker 1: and that lesson matters more now, I argue than ever before.

290
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: There are also serious concerns about foreign money entering the

291
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 1: American media ecosystem and then national security risks that come

292
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:32,679
Speaker 1: with it. Some company proposals are involving legacy studios that

293
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: would shrink the field from five to four major studios,

294
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: and that's a problem, right, concentrating more power in fewer

295
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: hands and driving up costs for families who just want

296
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: to watch a movie at home. That kind of consolidation

297
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 1: reduces competition, It limits your choice and historically leads to layoffs,

298
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: not innovation. Even more troubling, some of these proposal and

299
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: these takeovers are requiring money to come from overseas, reportedly

300
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 1: backed by twenty four billion, for example, from foreign governments.

301
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: Did you hear I said, foreign governments including Saudi Arabia,

302
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: Abu Dhabi, and Qatar. Now I'm hardly a fan of

303
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: excess regulation, but we have laws on the books for

304
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: reason to protect the American marketplace and the American people

305
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: from foreign manipulation. So let's be clear, twenty four billion.

306
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 1: Twenty four billion from the Middle East is not philanthropy.

307
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: Foreign governments do not invest billions in American media for fun.

308
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 1: They do it to gain leverage influence, narratives, shape what

309
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 1: you see and hear. That's why I say this is

310
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 1: a direct national security concern. So in today's world, influence

311
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: is power, and when American content is weakened, something else

312
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:50,159
Speaker 1: fills the void, and increasingly that content is shaped or

313
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: approved by authoritarian governments. That's the reason why I'm saying

314
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: right now this Netflix Warner Brothers Discovery merger, it doesn't

315
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 1: eliminate competition. It actually strengthens American company and allows for

316
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 1: us to get foreign backed actors out of our studios.

317
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,120
Speaker 1: That's why I say that this merger is important. It's

318
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:17,640
Speaker 1: a vote for American workers, American creativity, and American strength.

319
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: And by the way, Ronald Reagan knew culture influence was

320
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 1: national security and power that, my friends, hasn't changed. So

321
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 1: i'd encourage you call your senator, tell them what you think.

322
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 1: Massive fraud found in California, and many, including Donald Trump,

323
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 1: are warning that it may be bigger than what we

324
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 1: found in Minnesota. Millions of your tax dollars were defrauded,

325
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: in fact, by just one man.

326
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 4: The money was meant to feed the homeless.

327
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: I want you to hear how Fox News talked about

328
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 1: this one individual, the defrauded Americans of more than twenty

329
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: three million dollars. I'll stay it again. This is just

330
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: one person. Listen to the report from Fox News.

331
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 9: Agents moving in today, busting the man accused of stealing

332
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 9: tens of millions of dollars meant for the homeless and

333
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 9: spending that cash on a lavish lifestyle. Corisponding Matt finn

Speaker 9: is live in Los Angeles for you, and you know,

335

00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 9: it is.

337
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, this is it. Behind me, John.

338
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 10: The Feds say this man was contracted with the City

339
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 10: and County of Los Angeles two housand feet up to

340
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,159
Speaker 10: six hundred homeless people, but instead he was misusing tens

341
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 10: of millions of dollars to live.

342
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 8: A luxurious life.

343
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 10: Exclusive Fox video shows the fed's early morning bust here

344
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 10: at the La mansion, Forty two year old Alexander.

345
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 8: Suker was arrested.

346
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 10: Suker's one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars land rover

347
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,720

348
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 10: the City and County of La out of twenty three

349
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 10: million in taxpayer dollars for not only his mansion and car,

350
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 10: but a second home in Greece, luxury vacations, designer clothes,

351
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 10: and private schools.

352
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 11: He was living the high life while the people suffering

353
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,439
Speaker 11: homelessly on the streets with no shelter, no food.

354
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,120
Speaker 8: They're living out in the streets.

355
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 11: People are literally dying, and this guy is out vacationing,

356
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 11: buying homes, buying range rovers, and going shopping.

357
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 10: Prosecutors say Suker was supposed to provide three nutritional meals

358
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 10: a day to the homeless, but during one inspection, Suker

359
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 10: only had canned beans and ramen noodles on hand. The

360
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 10: Fed Saint Lucre lied about various aspects of abundant blessings,

361
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 10: including fake vendors, facilities, and the homeless actually getting meals.

362
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 10: The US Attorney's Office in LA says they are actively

363
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:53,120
Speaker 10: investigating at least twelve other similar fraud cases here in California.

364
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 8: First Assistant US Attorney Bill A.

365
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 10: Sale says there's a tremendous amount of fraud in this

366
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 10: state and that today's bust of one man who missed

367
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 10: US twenty three million dollars a loon may show how

368
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 10: little oversight there is.

369
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 11: California was pushing this money out quickly, a lot of

370
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 11: money went out the door with frankly, very little vetting,

371
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 11: very little checks and balances, and he's one of the

372
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 11: individuals that got it.

373
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 10: The suspect is scheduled to make his first appearance later today.

374
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,159
Speaker 10: He faces up to twenty years if convicted on a

375
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,919
Speaker 10: federal case. The local district attorney is also planning on

376
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 10: prosecuting Sean.

377
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 4: Now this is just the tip of the iceberg.

378
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: In fact, we now have the same man, Nick Shirley,

379
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,479
Speaker 1: who did the incredible job of discovering massive fraud in

380
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,880
Speaker 1: Minneapolis and exposing it to the world that is landed

381
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 1: in California, and he's now saying that's even worse than

382
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 1: anyone else.

383
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 4: Could have imagined.

00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,840
