I can see how the 29 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 8: administration is sort of caught because they can't talk about 30 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 8: the strategy.

We've won, but we've already done a lot 42 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 4: of winning, but we quote haven't won enough. 43 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: What does that mean exactly?

Psalm Chapter eighteen, 52 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 8: verse thirty. As for God, his way is perfect. The 53 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 8: word of the Lord is proven. He is a shield 54 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 8: to all who trust in him. All right, I want 55 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 8: to bring in now Missouri Congressman Mark Alford.

There's a lot of pressure on the administration 58 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 8: regarding this war. What is the best interpretation in your 59 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 8: opinion of what's really happening on the ground and that 60 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 8: because I sort of feel like and tell me if 61 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 8: you agree that the President is really calling on the 62 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 8: Iranian people to write this ship at this point to 63 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 8: sort of rise up and make things happen, right, what's 64 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 8: your take on what needs to happen to get us 65 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 8: out of this sort of straddle that's quite uncomfortable for MAGA. 66 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,920 Speaker 9: Well, Terrence and David, thank you so much for having me. 67 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 9: We arened around.

Secretary Hegseeth is taking the. 70 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 10: Sorry, Dad, and who trained counterinsurgents in Kabble, Afghanistan, and 71 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 10: who still carries the weight of brothers lost to Iranian 72 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 10: terrorist proxies, many backed by the same Iranian regime we're confronting. 73 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 11: Now this fight Operation epic Fury. It hits home. Our 74 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 11: generation understands this fight. 75 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 10: For forty seven years, these barbaric savages in the Iranian 76 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 10: regime have murdered our brothers in arms, my guys, your guys, 77 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 10: our guys through their terrorist proxies and cowardly attacks. Now 78 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 10: they race toward a nuclear bomb to hold the world hostage. 79 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 10: The Iranians have targeted and killed thousands of my American 80 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 10: brothers that race to a nuclear bomb. President Trump will 81 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 10: never allow it, not now, not ever, not on our watch. 82 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 10: The Mulas are desperate and scrambling like the terrorist cowards 83 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 10: they are. They fire missiles from schools and hospitals, deliberately 84 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 10: targeting innocence. Because they know their military is being systematically 85 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 10: degraded and annihilated. Iran's neighbors and in some cases, former 86 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 10: allies in the Gulf, they've abandoned them and their proxies Hesbola, 87 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 10: the Huthis and Hamas either broken, ineffective, or on the sidelines. 88 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 10: Iran stands alone and they are badly losing. On day 89 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 10: ten of Operation Epic Fury, we are winning with an 90 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 10: overwhelming and unrelenting focus on our objectives, which are the 91 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 10: same as the day I gave my first briefing here 92 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 10: on Operation Epic Fury. They're straightforward, and we are executing 93 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 10: them with ruthless precision. One destroy their missile stockpiles, their 94 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 10: missile launchers and their defense industrial base missiles and their 95 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 10: ability to make them. Two destroy their navy, and three 96 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 10: permanently deny Iran nuclear weapons forever. It's a laser focused, 97 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 10: maximum authority mission delivered with overwhelming and unrelenting precision, no hesitation, 98 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 10: no half measures. As President Trump declared yesterday, we're crushing 99 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 10: the enemy in an overwhelming display of technical skill and 100 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 10: military force. We will not relent until the enemy is 101 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 10: totally and decisively defeated. 102 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 11: But we do so, we do so on our timeline 103 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 11: and at our choosing. 104 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 10: For example, today will be yet again our most intense 105 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,799 Speaker 10: day of strikes inside Iran. The most fighters, the most bombers, 106 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 10: the most strikes, intelligence more refined and better than ever. 107 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 11: So that's on one hand. 108 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 10: On the other hand, the last twenty four hours have 109 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 10: seen Iran fire the lowest number of missiles they've been 110 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 10: capable of firing yet, just the bifurcation, just the trend 111 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 10: lines that we talked about on our first briefing. You see, 112 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 10: this is not two thousand and three. This is not 113 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 10: endless nation building under those types of quagmuires we saw under. 114 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 11: Bush or Obama. It's not even close. 115 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 10: Our generation of soldier will not let that happen again, 116 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 10: and nor will this president, who very clearly ran against 117 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 10: those kinds of never ending, nebulously scoped missions. 118 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 11: Those days are dead. 119 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 10: Instead, we're winning decisively with brutal efficiency, total air dominance, 120 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 10: and an unbreakable will to accomplish the President's objectives on 121 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 10: our timeline. We stay locked on the target because here 122 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 10: at the Department of War, that's our job. 123 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 11: Now. 124 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 10: The Chairman and I, having just returned from Dover last night, 125 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 10: our troops and their families and the enormous sacrifice that 126 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 10: they make is certainly heavy on my mind. So I'll 127 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 10: close with scripture, drawing strength from Psalm one point four. 128 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 10: Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands 129 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 10: for war and my fingers for battle. He is my 130 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 10: loving God and my fortress, my stronghold, and my deliverer, 131 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 10: my shield in whom I take refuge. May the Lord 132 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 10: grant unyielding strength and refuge to our warriors, unbreakable protection 133 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 10: to them and our homeland, and total victory over those 134 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 10: who seek. 135 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 11: To harm them. 136 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 10: And Amen, God bless our troops and this mission's chairman 137 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 10: over to you. 138 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 12: Thank you, Miss Strictarian. Good morning everyone, and thank you 139 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 12: for being here. I'm here today to continue the updates 140 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 12: to the American people into those in the room on 141 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 12: Operation Epic Fury. First, let me start with honoring our fallen. 142 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 12: As the Secretary said on Saturday and again last night 143 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 12: at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware, our nation's leaders 144 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 12: honored our returning fallen as they arrived home for their 145 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 12: final time. Last week. I shared a few of the names, 146 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 12: and today I want to share the rest. Major Jeffrey 147 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 12: O'Brien and Chief Warrant Officer three Robert Marzen were the 148 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 12: final two fallen to return home and members of the 149 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,959 Speaker 12: US Army Reserves one hundred and third Sustainment Command out 150 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 12: of Des Moines, Iowa.

It 156 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 12: was clear all the way back then that Ben wanted 157 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 12: to do one thing in his life, and he wanted 158 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 12: to serve his country and be a soldier. And to 159 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 12: the Penningtons, just know how Ben was absolutely. 160 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 13: A great one. 161 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 12: And finally, Major Sourfleet Davis, who returned home this weekend 162 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 12: after sadly passing away from a medical condition while on 163 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 12: duty and kuwait.

The 175 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 12: Joint Force remains focused on three military objectives. Continue to 176 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 12: destroy Iranian ballistic missiles and drone capability in order to 177 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 12: prevent attacks on the US and others throughout the region. 178 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 12: And this means attacking launch sites, command and control nodes, 179 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 12: stockpiles before they can threaten our personnel, our facilities, and 180 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 12: our partners. Second, we continue to strike the Iranian navy 181 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 12: and their capabilities in order to do things like sustained 182 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 12: movement through the Straits of Hormus. And Third, we continue 183 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 12: to start working on and going deeper into Iran's military 184 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 12: and industrial base in order to prevent the regime from 185 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 12: being able to attack Americans, our interests, and our partners 186 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 12: for years to come and project power outside their borders. 187 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 12: This means servicing production facilities, research and development sites, and infrastructure. 188 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 12: Let me turn to the map. We're going to try 189 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 12: digital today to prevent laser injury. Since our last update, 190 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 12: SENCOM continues to make progress across the southern flank. To date, 191 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 12: they've struck more than five thousand targets. US Strategic Command 192 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:21,599 Speaker 12: bombers recently dropped dozens of two thousand pounds GPS penetrating 193 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 12: weapons on deeply buried missile launchers across the southern flank. 194 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 12: We also have struck several one way drone factories to 195 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 12: get at the heart of their autonomous capability, and of course, 196 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 12: alongside our regional partners along the southern flank, continue to 197 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 12: execute intercepts against one way attack drones using fighters and 198 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 12: attack helicopters. Our strikes mean we've made significant progress in 199 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 12: reducing the number of missile and drone attacks out of Iran. 200 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 12: Ballistic missile attacks continue to trend downward ninety percent from 201 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 12: where they've started. Way attack drone have decreased eighty three 202 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 12: percent since the part beginning of the operation, a testament 203 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 12: to our air defenders and our air defense systems, and 204 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 12: as I said, our partners in the region continued to 205 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 12: do great work as well. Second, we're making substantial progress 206 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 12: towards destroying the navy. In the first ten days of 207 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 12: the conflict, were more than fifty Iranian naval ships into 208 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 12: the campaign using a combination of artillery, fighters, bombers, and 209 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 12: sea launch missiles. As Admiral Cooper noted last Thursday, we 210 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 12: struck and sank an Iranian drone carriership and US sent 211 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 12: comp continues today to hunt and strike mind laying vessels 212 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 12: and mind storage facilities. This work will continue. Third, we've 213 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 12: against our objectives. We've begun to target around military and 214 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 12: industrial complex again, focusing on centers of gravity to get 215 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 12: upstream of the shooters out in the field in order 216 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 12: to deny them the ability to continue to generate those 217 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 12: one way attack drones. Let me spend a minute talking 218 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 12: about the Joint Force across the area of responsibility. This 219 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 12: is gritty and tireless work, and I cannot begin to 220 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 12: explain how incredibly proud I am of the extraordinary courage, tenacity, 221 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 12: and grit and professionalism within the Joint Force. Last time 222 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 12: I had a chance to talk about the Army's incredible 223 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 12: logisticians who are out there sustaining the fight. Today, I 224 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 12: want to highlight a few groups of sailors. First, I 225 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 12: want to thank the men and women of the Ford 226 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 12: Carrier Strike Group and their families and let all of 227 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 12: them know how grateful I am for their leadership and service. 228 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 12: The crews on board this strike group have already been 229 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:53,239 Speaker 12: endured months at sea, only to get their deployment extended. 230 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 12: These exceptional Americans, rogered up all supported by their families, 231 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 12: continue to stand the watch, taking the fight to the 232 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 12: enemy over and over again, night after night. Aboard ships 233 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 12: like the uss Ford and the Abraham Lincoln are a 234 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 12: special group of sailors I want to highlight today. These 235 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 12: are the men and women the sailors up on the 236 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 12: roof running operations on the flight deck, with an average 237 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 12: age of the early twenties. These are the unsung heroes 238 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 12: of naval aviation. These young sailors, known for wearing yellow shirts, 239 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 12: are in charge of the catapults, taxiing jets around on 240 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 12: the flight deck, shooting jets off the front end, and 241 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 12: recovering jets off the back end. They are literally involved 242 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 12: with every single movement on the roof on an aircraft carrier. 243 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 12: They are the last ones that a naval aviator sees 244 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 12: before getting shot off the front end and the first 245 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 12: one that a naval aviator sees after safely trapping on 246 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 12: the back end. And just for a minute, imagine you're 247 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 12: standing on that aircraft carrier flight deck. There's thirty knots 248 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 12: of wind in your face. The deck is slippery, covered 249 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 12: in grease. It's noisy. There are propellers spinning, there's jet 250 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 12: blast everywhere, the helicopters are running. Your head is on 251 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 12: a swivel, and you're trying to direct a multi million 252 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 12: dollar fighter into a one foot square box so that 253 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 12: those naval aviators can be shot off into the black 254 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 12: of night to go do America's work. Those jets are 255 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 12: fully loaded with missiles and bombs, and they are a 256 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 12: world class team. Combined with the naval aviation and the 257 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 12: aviators in those jets, this beautiful symphony of American spirit 258 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 12: is the definition of perfectly organized chaos, and these crews 259 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 12: do it every single time the carrier is at work. 260 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 12: Oh by the way, in the middle of the night, 261 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 12: and oftentimes in the pouring rain. These are dedicated young 262 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 12: people who take the road less traveled to serve of 263 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 12: their great nation, doing the deeds that we need them 264 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 12: to do. America's enlisted force is the pride of every 265 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 12: nation's military, certainly ours, and the envy of every other 266 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 12: one as well. Each and every one of them out 267 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 12: there across the Joint Force are extraordinary, and in particular 268 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 12: today I want to highlight the Yellow Shirts, ladies and gentlemen. 269 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 12: Our work continues, it'll continue to be difficult. I ask 270 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 12: every American to keep our deployed force and their families 271 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 12: in our thoughts. Combat deployments can be tough on the 272 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 12: force and the families, and it's important that we continue 273 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 12: to remember that. I remain deeply humbled by the two 274 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 12: point eight million members of the Joint Force, and I'll 275 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 12: end where I started, and that's remembering our fallen and 276 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 12: their families, whose sacrifice will be felt forever. And with that, 277 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 12: I'll take some questions with Secretary. 278 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 10: A beautiful symphony of American spirit, well said mister Chairman Exer, 279 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 10: and I will just note that no other country in 280 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 10: the world is capable of execute what the Chairman just described, 281 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 10: day after day, night after night, unrelenting welcome. 282 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 14: Thank you for sure, Alexandra ingersol One America News. You talked, 283 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 14: mister Secretary, you talked to at the conference in Florida 284 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 14: on Thursday, that there was a ninety percent missile capabilities 285 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 14: degradation and eighty three percent drone degradation. And I know 286 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 14: the Chairman just repeated those numbers. We've seen the most 287 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 14: amount of fighting these past five days. Is there any 288 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 14: update to those percentages? And also are you able to 289 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 14: give any quantification of degradat degradation to the enemy's nuclear capabilities. 290 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 10: Yet, what those numbers represent is a persistent low ability 291 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 10: to respond, which is what we're looking for, right it's 292 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 10: if the if the enemy can simply wait and then 293 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 10: project power, that's problematic, and we've seen some spurts here there, 294 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 10: but ultimately the trend lines, if you look at the 295 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 10: charts that we look at every day, have gone like 296 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,199 Speaker 10: this down to all a flat. That doesn't mean they 297 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 10: won't be able to project, doesn't mean they our air 298 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 10: defenders still don't have to defend. They do, but that 299 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 10: is strong evidence of degradation, along with the battle damage 300 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 10: assessment that the Joint Staff does, which takes time. You've 301 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 10: got to look at imagery and recognize whether something's been 302 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 10: simply degraded or it's been destroyed, or whether an underground 303 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 10: facility has been collapsed or completely obliterated. So there's differences 304 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,959 Speaker 10: in how you evaluate that, but the number staying that 305 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 10: low is a demonstration of the efficacy for sure. 306 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 13: Yeah, thanks, mister secretary. 307 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 15: There's been reports that the new leader Oberon has been wounded. 308 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 15: You know if this is true and what his condition is. 309 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 15: And then another one, President Trump said he had a 310 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,919 Speaker 15: really good call with President Putin yesterday. Will RuSHA be 311 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 15: aiding us in this conflict? And can you share anything 312 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 15: on that? 313 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:53,719 Speaker 10: Well, the President, as I've said before, maintains strong relationships 314 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 10: with world leaders, which creates opportunities and options for us 315 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 10: in very dynamic ways. 316 00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 3: So President said it was a good call. 317 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 10: I was not on it, but those that were said 318 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 10: it was a strong call, reaffirming hopefully the opportunity for 319 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 10: some peace in Russia Ukraine and also a recognition that 320 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 10: as it pertains to this conflict, they should not be involved. 321 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 11: The first question was on. 322 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,479 Speaker 15: The new leader of Iran, those reports that he's been wounded. 323 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 10: Oh, the new leader of Iran, he would be wise 324 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,360 Speaker 10: to heed the words of our president, which is to 325 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 10: not pursue nuclear weapons and come out and state. 326 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 11: As such as far as his status, that's not something 327 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 11: I can comment on right now. Yeah, right here, great. 328 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 16: Mister Secretary Eric Schmidt with a New York Times question 329 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 16: for you. First last week, you talked about this being 330 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,080 Speaker 16: the beginnings of an air campaign that could last three 331 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 16: to eight weeks. Can you give us your assessment on 332 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 16: where we are now? And mister chairman, and any conflict 333 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 16: the enemy or the adversary adapts to the tactics it faces. 334 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 16: Can you talk about the most challenging adaptation the Iranian 335 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 16: military has made to the US military? What challenges are 336 00:20:59,960 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 16: you facing most right now? 337 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: Thank you, I. 338 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 11: Appreciate the question. 339 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 10: Where we are is in a very strong place giving 340 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 10: the President of the United States maximum options, and from 341 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 10: the beginning from this party, we haven't stated how long 342 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 10: it will take. 343 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 11: Our will is endless. 344 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 10: Ultimately the president gets to determine the end. 345 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 11: State of those objectives. Right. But what he's said. 346 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 10: Continually I want the American people to understand is this 347 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 10: is not endless. It's not protracted. We're not allowing mission creep. 348 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 10: The President has set a very specific mission to accomplish 349 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 10: and our job is to unrelentingly deliver that. Now he 350 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 10: gets to control the throttle. He's the one deciding. He's 351 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 10: the one elected on behalf of the American people when 352 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 10: we're achieving those particular objectives, and so it's not for 353 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 10: me to posit whether it's the beginning, the middle, or 354 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 10: the end, that's his, and he'll continue to communicate that. 355 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 11: What we serve him as is give him updates on 356 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 11: a daily basis of exactly where we are so he 357 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 11: can make that determination on the throttle this rum. 358 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 12: Thank you for the question non adaptation, as You're right, 359 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 12: no plan survives first contact with the enemy or Murphy. 360 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 12: They're adapting, as are we. Of course, we have very 361 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 12: entrepreneurial war fighters out there. I'd rather not, for operational 362 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 12: security reasons, tell them what's working, So I'll I'm not 363 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 12: gonna not answer that question based on that. But we 364 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 12: are watching what they're doing, and we are adapting faster 365 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 12: than they are. 366 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 16: Are they more formidable than you anticipated? 367 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 17: General? 368 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 12: I mean, I think they're fighting, and I respect that, 369 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 12: but I don't think they're more formidable than what we thought. 370 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 1: Ok there, Eric Tech, thank you. 371 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 18: Jordan Conrad's from Gateway Pundit Axios reported, citing US and 372 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 18: Israeli sources, that the US's not happy with strikes on 373 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:48,360 Speaker 18: thirty fuel depots in Iran. While this is anonymous sourcing, 374 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 18: you know, it seems kind of congrumed with what President 375 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 18: Trump said yesterday that there's certain spots they don't want 376 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 18: to want to hit relating to the energy of structure 377 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 18: that would take a long time to rebuild. 378 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 1: And you know whether this reporting is sure or not. 379 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 18: What's your message to Americans, those who supported the president 380 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 18: and those who aren't really in favor of this war 381 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 18: and who worry that Israel might be taking advantage of 382 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 18: the US it's backing. And then for mister Chairman, for you, 383 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 18: I wanted to ask, when you say that we're moving inland, 384 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 18: what capabilities does Iran have to shoot down jets over 385 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 18: their land and would that trigger some kind of rescue 386 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,400 Speaker 18: operation that could risk a bigger ground operation. 387 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 10: Well, I would just state by saying, Israel's been a 388 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 10: really strong partner in this effort. Where they have different objectives, 389 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 10: they've pursued them. Ultimately we've stayed. 390 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 11: Focused on ours. 391 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 10: But when Iran has felt is the power of the 392 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 10: world's two most powerful air forces in that particular case, 393 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 10: that wasn't those weren't our strikes or that objective, or 394 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 10: that wasn't our necessarily our objective. But the President has 395 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 10: made it clear to those concerns Earns that we're not 396 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 10: getting pulled in any direction. 397 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 11: We're leading. The President is leading, He's. 398 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,479 Speaker 10: Determining where we want to go, what the outcome will be, 399 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 10: what the end state is, with a very keen eye. 400 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 10: And I understand those concerns because I've heard from a 401 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 10: lot of people who went through I went through twenty 402 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 10: years of those wars, myself worried about getting dragged in, 403 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 10: worried about Mission creep, worried about nation building or democracy expansion. 404 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 10: That's never the perspective the President has pursued on this. 405 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 10: Just because previous presidents and previous secretaries have decided to 406 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 10: just pour more resources and more people in toward some 407 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 10: unguided end state, doesn't mean that's the way the world 408 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 10: needs to look today. In fact, the American people voted 409 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,119 Speaker 10: for a different approach, but with the president also stated 410 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 10: from the beginning was it ron can't have a nuclear weapon. 411 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 10: And it's one thing to say it. It's easy to say. 412 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 10: Anybody can say that, I mean, Barack Obama said that. 413 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 10: But to do something about it takes courage and resolve. 414 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 10: In that courage and in that resolve, you can also 415 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 10: be very scoped in what you're trying to execute To 416 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 10: ensure that the sacrifice of Americans, American treasure, American lives. 417 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 10: All of those properly meet the objective that you're trying 418 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 10: to accomplish. And certainly, as someone I talked out front 419 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,880 Speaker 10: about what the reignings have done to our generation. Yes, 420 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 10: we're clear out about it, but my job is to 421 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 10: keep it scoped given the director to the President to 422 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 10: accomplish the mission. 423 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:27,919 Speaker 3: Thank you for the question. 424 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 12: You know, most of their higher end surf stare missile 425 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 12: systems are not factors at this point in time. We're 426 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 12: able to move around fighters that are moving deeper with 427 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 12: relative impunity. Always some risk out there. I don't want 428 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 12: to say that there isn't and we'll always maintain and 429 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 12: retain capability of doing search and rescue type of things, 430 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 12: but I don't want to get into the details. 431 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 3: But thank you for the question, Jilly. 432 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: Thanks mister Secretary. 433 00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:01,199 Speaker 19: President Trump told our team on the ground early this 434 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 19: morning that the thing that has surprised him the most 435 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 19: during the course of this operation so far has been 436 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 19: the Iranian regime attacking countries that are not attacking them. 437 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 19: I'm curious if that surprised you as well, and general 438 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 19: curious if you were open to the possibility of escorting 439 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 19: vessels through the strait of horror moves, and if you 440 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 19: could describe some of the challenges. 441 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 1: Of doing so. 442 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 10: Big mistake by the Iranian regime to start targeting its 443 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 10: neighbors right away, exposing who they are and what they're 444 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 10: all about, indiscriminate targeting, flailing recklessly at the beginning. I 445 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:46,239 Speaker 10: can't say that we anticipated necessarily that's exactly how they 446 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 10: would react, but we knew it was a possibility, and 447 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 10: I think it was a demonstration of the desperation of 448 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 10: that regime then and that regime now that they still 449 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,880 Speaker 10: think their pathway out is to try to alienate their 450 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 10: Arab partners even more, whove instead decided to come to 451 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,199 Speaker 10: us and have been willing to go on the offense, 452 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 10: have been given us access basing and overflight in a 453 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 10: new partnership that will continue to remake the region the 454 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 10: way that President Trump did with the Abraham Court. So 455 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 10: you're pushing those countries in our in our direction to 456 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,400 Speaker 10: support this effort, further alienating Iran, and I think it's 457 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 10: worth underscoring. I see in the media banners that say 458 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 10: in war expanding or war spread. 459 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 11: It's actually the opposite. 460 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 10: It's it's actually quite contained, and more allies or more 461 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 10: of those countries are coming on side recognizing that you 462 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 10: can't live under a conventional umbrella with nuclear ambitions with 463 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 10: a radical regime like that. Again properly scoping the objectives 464 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 10: in the process, and then you want to talk about 465 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 10: the strange. 466 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 12: Sure on the on the potential if tasked to escort 467 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 12: you know, we'll look at the range of options to 468 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 12: set the military conditions to be able to do that, 469 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 12: and then, like we always do with every potential mission, 470 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 12: come to the Secretary and the President with both what 471 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 12: are the sources required, what is a command and control required, 472 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 12: and what are the risks and how do we mitigate 473 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 12: those risks. So we're looking at a range of options 474 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 12: there and we'll figure out how to solve problems as 475 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 12: they come to us. 476 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 10: But I would reiterate also to add to what the 477 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 10: Chairman said, the truth the President posted last night about that, saying, 478 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 10: if Iron does anything to stop the flow of oil 479 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 10: within the Strait of Horrm moves, they will be hit 480 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,719 Speaker 10: by the United States of America twenty times harder than 481 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 10: they have been hit thus far. 482 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,160 Speaker 11: He goes on to say death fire and fury will 483 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 11: rain upon them. 484 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,280 Speaker 10: You've seen the truth and read it, but he takes 485 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 10: very seriously the condition of that straits. We have capabilities 486 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 10: that no other nation on Earth has, and we're certainly 487 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 10: working with our energy partners across the Administration to control 488 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 10: for that. That's part of that scoping of this. The 489 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 10: world needs to understand. This doesn't have this isn't intended 490 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 10: to be, nor is it something that will expand we 491 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 10: know exactly what we're attempting to achieve here scoped properly, 492 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 10: and the American people can count on that for sure. 493 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 5: Thank you so much, John Terry head Seth. President Trumps 494 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 5: long said that he wants to minimize the loss of 495 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 5: life in war, which wherever it occurs, in whatever country, 496 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 5: which so many people obviously appreciate. Can you detail the 497 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 5: specific measures the Pentagon is taking to minimize civilian casualties 498 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 5: and strikes inside Iran? And secondarily, is the Pentagon prioritizing 499 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 5: replenishment of precision guided munitions, long ranged strike weapons, or 500 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,719 Speaker 5: air defense interceptors And can you share any details on 501 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 5: which systems are being prioritized. 502 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 10: Yeah, seeing it from the inside every single day, including this, 503 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 10: no nation takes more precautions to ensure there's never targeting 504 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 10: of civilians than the United States of America. From the 505 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 10: boat strikes in the Caribbean, where every single strike is 506 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 10: assessed to these to this campaign here, no nation in 507 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 10: the history of warfare has ever attempted in every way 508 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 10: possible to avoid civilian capsualties. And and and frankly, that's 509 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 10: a point that just isn't appreciated enough. 510 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 11: Where things happen. 511 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 10: That need to be investigated, we will investigate to the 512 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 10: to the to the question shouted in the back that 513 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 10: it's not open source is not the place to determine 514 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 10: what did or did not happen. We take things very 515 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 10: very seriously and investigate them thoroughly, which takes time. 516 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 11: Uh and and which is why it does take time. 517 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 10: But ultimately, unlike Iran who targets civilians indiscriminately, who we've 518 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 10: seen in the intel, moving rocket launchers into civilian neighborhoods, 519 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 10: near schools, near hospitals to try to prevent our ability 520 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 10: to strike. 521 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 11: That's how they operate. 522 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 10: And then they set you know, the targeting of drones 523 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 10: and missiles toward civilian targets, hospitals, hotels, airports we've sent. 524 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 10: COM has been very good about putting that information out. 525 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 10: That's how terrorist regimes fight. They target civilians. 526 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 20: We do not. 527 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 10: And I can tell you this, this is this administration 528 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 10: and this Pentagon focuses on that very very closely. 529 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 13: Go ahead. 530 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 21: This morning, the Iranian government is saying a lot. They 531 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 21: continue to say they're prepared for. 532 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 22: A long war. 533 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 21: If that's the case, what could you tell the American 534 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 21: people as far as the steps the Department of War 535 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 21: is taking to make sure our troops half the protection 536 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 21: and the resources they need us a mission continues. 537 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 10: I think there's one thing I can sleep quietly at 538 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 10: night knowing is that we're giving every resource humanly possible 539 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 10: to our troops on the front lines to ensure they're protected. 540 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 10: In fact, as I said in that first press briefing, 541 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 10: even before we set the offense, we set the defense. 542 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 10: We made sure we had the ability to defend, and 543 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 10: then we moved as many Americans off the bases and 544 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 10: into other places as possible. So as this progresses, that 545 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 10: the Chairman or the question was asked to the Chairman 546 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 10: about how the enemy adapts. 547 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 11: Of course, we adapt to in. 548 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 10: Real time and to watch our warriors iterate on air 549 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 10: defense and interdiction, on drones and missiles and how we 550 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 10: get after it. It's incredible how they refine the tactics, bring 551 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 10: in new assets, to find different ways of getting at 552 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 10: emerging technologies. So that is one of the things where 553 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 10: Laser focused on every day. Yes, we're going on offense 554 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 10: more effectively than any country in human history, but we're 555 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 10: also ensuring that in every way possible, we're defending the 556 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 10: best Americans we have who wear our uniform. 557 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 11: No doubt, let's do one more. 558 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 17: Thanks Secretary, he accept The President has indicated that maybe 559 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 17: the operation will wrap up sooner than he thought it 560 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 17: was going to. What's the plan once the US stops 561 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 17: military action. Will the US play a role in the 562 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 17: aftermath or will they leave Iran to sort it out? 563 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 10: Ultimately, the aftermath is going to be in America's interests, 564 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 10: our interests. We won't live under a nuclear black mail 565 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 10: scenario of conventional missiles that can target our people, which 566 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 10: is why the objectives have been scoped from the beginning, missiles, 567 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 10: missile production, defense, industrial base, Navy, all in service of 568 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 10: ensuring they don't have have nuclear power projection capabilities. That's 569 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 10: what matters to President Trump, that's what matters to the 570 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 10: American people, and ultimately that's why we're so laser focused 571 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 10: on ensuring those objectives and those objectives the loan are met. 572 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 23: Thank you, appreciate, thank you. 573 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 7: You were listening to a press briefing at the Pentagon 574 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 7: involving the Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and the Chairman 575 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 7: of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Kine. Secretary of 576 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 7: Hegseth basically laying out the current mission and successes of 577 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 7: the operation in Iran, saying that the missile production and 578 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 7: launching capabilities of Iran have been largely eradicated. Also, the 579 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 7: drone processing capabilities have also been eradicated. Let's bring back 580 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 7: in doctor Gina, David Brody as well as Congressman Mark Alfred, 581 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 7: who has been gracious enough to stick around for U 582 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 7: to break down what we just heard. 583 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 3: Congressmen, want to start. 584 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 7: With you, is the messaging that you're hearing publicly from 585 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 7: the Secretary similar to the messaging that you and your 586 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:10,360 Speaker 7: colleagues are hearing privately in briefings from the War Department. 587 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,720 Speaker 9: Yeah, thanks, Terrence. Yeah, it is, and it's a message 588 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 9: of confidence. That we have the strongest military in the world. 589 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 9: No one can match our capabilities. I think what you 590 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 9: heard from the Secretary of War and from the Chairman 591 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 9: of the Joint Chiefs is a matter of confidence, but 592 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:27,359 Speaker 9: not cockiness. 593 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 20: We know that we have a ways to go. 594 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,280 Speaker 9: We know that Iran is holding on with some capabilities, 595 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 9: especially in the drone sector, but we know that we 596 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 9: can outperform them. This is not going to be an 597 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 9: overnight operation. But President Trump made it clear yesterday that 598 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 9: we do have the strongest military and as you heard 599 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 9: the Secretary of War say, no one can do what 600 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 9: we can do when it comes to protecting the Straits 601 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 9: of Horror moves that is a priority for this administration Trump. 602 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,799 Speaker 9: President Trump did make it quite clear you don't want 603 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 9: It's kind of like the old saying don't mess with tech. Well, 604 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,800 Speaker 9: don't mess with the United States of America, or we 605 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 9: will finish the job. I think we've been holding back 606 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 9: a little bit on some of our capabilities. But if 607 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,839 Speaker 9: they do try to choke the Straits of Horrormuz, which 608 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,799 Speaker 9: I think about eighty five percent of the oil from 609 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 9: that region goes through, would be devastating. 610 00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 20: You see the choke point now of some. 611 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 9: Of those ships backed up and causing just on the 612 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 9: speculation of oil and refiner reproduction. You've seen the price 613 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 9: of gas go up. Now, Democrats love that because they 614 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 9: are concentrating on this whole affordability issue. But I think 615 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 9: the average American realizes that we have Iran on the ropes. 616 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,320 Speaker 9: This is the time to finish off this terroristic regime 617 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:47,840 Speaker 9: that has threatened, killed, maimed, and really brutalized not just 618 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 9: the Mid East for forty seven years, but the entire world. 619 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 9: Now is the chance to make substantive change in that 620 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 9: part of the world. 621 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, there's been certainly a degree of transparency in terms 622 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 8: of this administration wanting to constantly communicate with the American 623 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 8: people about their rationale, motives, and some plans for this war. Congressman, 624 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 8: But did this particular briefing give you any insight that 625 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 8: maybe you didn't have before. Did it speak to any 626 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 8: of the questions that the America first contingent of MAGA 627 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 8: is asking, Is there anything redefined here? Do you feel 628 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 8: like this was just more of a reiteration of important points. 629 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 9: Well, I think the points about the drones, especially from 630 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 9: the chair of the Joint chiefs talking about how these 631 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 9: drone capabilities are still sustaining with the Irans, the Iranians, 632 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 9: but that we have the capabilities to keep fighting and 633 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 9: to eventually knock these out. Also, the point that was 634 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 9: reiterated by the Secretary of War that part of this 635 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 9: mission is to make sure that we eliminate any manufacturing 636 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 9: cape abilities that the Iranians could come back with to 637 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 9: regenerate and reinvent some of their ballistic missiles once those 638 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 9: are wiped out, the long range and the short range. 639 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 9: That is going to be a check off of one 640 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 9: of the missions and objectives that this administration has had. 641 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:20,320 Speaker 9: The other part is the manufacturing and capabilities of drones. 642 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 9: Drones have really, in the last ten to fifteen years 643 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 9: have changed the scope of warfare. We've seen that in 644 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 9: the illicit war of Russia on Ukraine. We've seen the 645 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 9: technology that's been available. We are gearing up production here 646 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 9: in the US. In fact, in our district, everyone is 647 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 9: talking about drone warfare and anti drone capabilities, and so 648 00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,399 Speaker 9: that's an important part. I think we'll learn a lot 649 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:50,360 Speaker 9: from this endeavor as well, not just removing the kinetic 650 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 9: capability from Iran and that illicit regime, terroristic regime, but 651 00:37:55,160 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 9: also lessons that we learn from capturing and some of 652 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:05,399 Speaker 9: these capabilities that they have, and learning the technologies that 653 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 9: we may not have. 654 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 4: Congressman a couple of notes that I took here. Pete 655 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 4: hagg Seth said, We're in a very strong place. This 656 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 4: is not endless, this is not mission creep. I thought 657 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 4: it was interesting. Basically he was saying Trump is going 658 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,839 Speaker 4: to decide when this ends. The President will decide when 659 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,759 Speaker 4: this ends, which I thought was illuminating. He did say 660 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 4: the aftermath will be in America's interest, but obviously that 661 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,359 Speaker 4: is going to be a question that will eventually come 662 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 4: to to me. What struck me most of all, quite frankly, 663 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 4: was Psalm one that Pete haig Seth went there with 664 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 4: the Bible. And the reason to me that significant is 665 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,920 Speaker 4: that Aroan sees this war in religious terms. We know 666 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 4: that the fact that the Secretary of War would now 667 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 4: quote the Bible Psalm and he literally said, Praise be 668 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 4: to the Lord, my rock, who trains my hand for war, 669 00:38:58,560 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 4: my fingers for battle. 670 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 1: I can guarantee you that is going to be. 671 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 4: Making headlines across the country in terms of a potential 672 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 4: religious war here once again Iran. 673 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 1: It's a religious war for Iran. 674 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 4: We know that, but the fact that the Secretary of 675 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 4: War said this, I think is significant. 676 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 20: Well I do too, And of course, a man after 677 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 20: God's on heart. 678 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:23,280 Speaker 9: David when he wrote that, was under extreme persecution from Saul, 679 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 9: who wanted him dead, and he knew that God was 680 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 9: on his side and was eventually going to survive that 681 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 9: and eventually become king. Look, I make no apologies for 682 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 9: living in a Christian nation. I love it that we 683 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 9: have a Christian in leadership as Secretary of War. I 684 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 9: do think we have to be careful about how we 685 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 9: frame these because we do need the majority of America 686 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 9: to be with us in this endeavor to eliminate the 687 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 9: capabilities that Iran had, and we're aiming towards building a 688 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,799 Speaker 9: nuclear weapon that could not just strike Israel, but also 689 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:03,840 Speaker 9: strike the United. 690 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 20: States of America. I know, I believe in God. I 691 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 20: believe in Jesus Christ. I believe that. 692 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,840 Speaker 9: We are here as a nation the providence and protection 693 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 9: of God Almighty, and so that is part of our legacy, 694 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 9: our history, and our future. I don't blame the Secretary 695 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,720 Speaker 9: of War for quoting scripture especially from. 696 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 20: David who was under persecution. But we do have to 697 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 20: be careful, I. 698 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 7: Think, Congressmen, as always, we appreciate your time. We appreciate 699 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 7: you sticking around to discuss what we just heard from 700 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 7: the Secretary of War and the Chairman of the Joint 701 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 7: Chiefs of Staff. 702 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 3: We also know you have a busy Dasa. We'll let 703 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 3: you go. 704 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 7: Good luck to you and your colleagues who are there 705 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 7: in Deral for this legislative retreat. Have a great rest 706 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 7: of the. 707 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 3: Day, sir, Thank you too, Always a pleasure to talk 708 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 3: to you, Gina. 709 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,399 Speaker 7: David, let's bring in rapt correspondent David z Or Now. 710 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 7: He was at the briefing. You may have even seen 711 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 7: video of him sitting there in the audience. David, can 712 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 7: you break down some of what we heard for us? 713 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 7: Obviously there's a lot to unpack here, your initial takeaways. 714 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 24: Good morning, entering the eleventh day of operations and epic 715 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 24: fury and the IRGC vowing to only hit Israel with 716 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 24: two thousand pound rockets going forward. Here the focus for 717 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 24: Pete Hegset here was a comparison of his time in 718 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 24: Iraq and how much this means to him. You know, 719 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 24: the media has been very critical of Pete Hegset said 720 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 24: he gave the Nazi salute the other day in the 721 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 24: sixty minutes interview, which was really scathing for him. But 722 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 24: I think it really hits home for him, and he 723 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 24: shared his time in service in Iraq and he understands 724 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,279 Speaker 24: the conflict and that this is not going to be 725 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 24: one of those long drawn out wars as far as 726 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 24: they are going to continue today, I thought it was 727 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:05,800 Speaker 24: really interesting they honored Ben Pennington by the way. I 728 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 24: think he was with Space Command of Colorado. Also Soortlely Davius, 729 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:11,480 Speaker 24: who was returned. 730 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 3: He died. 731 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 24: He passed away serving forty six of New York's forty 732 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 24: second Inventry Queens, New York. But there was a lot 733 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 24: to unpack here. Questions from the press today involved which 734 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 24: I thought was a great question, are we going to 735 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 24: escort vessels through the straits of Hermuz Now? They went 736 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 24: on a detailed explanation of the naval operations and another 737 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,120 Speaker 24: two or three ships taken out, over fifty taken out today. 738 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 24: But you know, what would it look like going forward? 739 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,280 Speaker 24: What kind of confidence can we give the global markets, 740 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,399 Speaker 24: the reinsurance markets that there's going to be a free 741 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 24: flow of oil as irax production say, is down seventy 742 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 24: percent and exports right now, so that's really critical. But 743 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 24: you know, he went forward and talked about also, you know, 744 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,600 Speaker 24: the cooperation in the Caribbean is on precedent. Did you 745 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 24: know the media was saying and he gave the Nazi 746 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:05,320 Speaker 24: salute at the America Shielded the America Summit. And I 747 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 24: was with Southern Command last week. Not to digress too much, 748 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 24: but you know, Southern Command had over half of the 749 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:15,920 Speaker 24: countries in Central America, South America and the Caribbean vowing 750 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:18,319 Speaker 24: and asking for the US has helped to wipe out 751 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 24: the cartels, an unprecedented thing in the Western Hemitsbury in 752 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 24: the history of our country. And they're focusing on whether 753 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 24: he gave a Nazi salute, and so I think the 754 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 24: media has been very unfair to him. He did, you know, 755 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 24: touch on that a little bit. I think he was, 756 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 24: you know, alluding to that that we have this cooperation 757 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,399 Speaker 24: going on. But where it goes from here, what does 758 00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,919 Speaker 24: it look like on the ground, who will take place 759 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 24: as the leader? You know, the NCRI Amaran Majavi has 760 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,840 Speaker 24: made statements that if she's put into provisional power inside 761 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:51,799 Speaker 24: Iran when our operations are wrapped up, that within six 762 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 24: months she'll have free elections there at a ten point 763 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 24: plan similar to a Bill of rights. And now you know, 764 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,800 Speaker 24: the son of the Shah has been relatively quiet residl Labby. 765 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,439 Speaker 24: We don't know where that stands. But the big question 766 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,880 Speaker 24: is what's in store for Iran going forward? 767 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, and that largely depends, doesn't it at this point 768 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:14,360 Speaker 8: David Zeir, not just on what America does in terms 769 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 8: of military action, but really in terms of what the 770 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 8: Iranian people do. Is the spirit and the will there 771 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 8: to rise up in the ways they need to and 772 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,919 Speaker 8: to maintain that for the amount of time it would 773 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 8: take to really make the changes that would need to 774 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:35,400 Speaker 8: be made to sort of make this whole thing stick. 775 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,360 Speaker 8: For lack of a really really bad layman's term, but 776 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:38,840 Speaker 8: you get it. 777 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 25: Yeah. 778 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 24: I think it's a great question because you know, we've 779 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,440 Speaker 24: seen thousands in the streets in Tehran supporting the new 780 00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:50,279 Speaker 24: Supreme Leader, but we don't see the resistance out in 781 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 24: the streets. We don't see these mats. And now we 782 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 24: see it in foreign countries. We see it in London, Berlin, Brussels, Rome, Stockholm, 783 00:44:56,680 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 24: gythenburg Oslo, Copenhagen, in Paris. In America, we see them 784 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 24: taking to the streets, the people who are exiled from 785 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:08,640 Speaker 24: Iran or escaped with the Shah and other But you know, 786 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 24: we don't see that big turnout on the streets. And 787 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,360 Speaker 24: maybe it's premature. Bombs are still falling. I think we 788 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:16,960 Speaker 24: have to give it a little bit of time. But 789 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 24: Trump's saying operations are your very complete. So will it ferment? 790 00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 24: And what will happen if there's a power vacuum? How 791 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 24: many people are going to be killed? How many people 792 00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 24: are going to be you know, will will the what's 793 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,880 Speaker 24: left of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and now they're double 794 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 24: down and you know, take out the opposition. So it's 795 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 24: very concerning. I think the United States is going forward 796 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 24: and probably have thought this out, but we need we 797 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:47,400 Speaker 24: need a clear explanation of where we go when our 798 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 24: operations are wrapped up. 799 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, David, I want to ask you a question, but 800 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:53,840 Speaker 4: first I want to play a SoundBite from the Secretary 801 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:56,840 Speaker 4: of War from just moments ago talking about the strikes 802 00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,040 Speaker 4: and the idea of nation building and how he nixed that. 803 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:05,239 Speaker 10: Have a look, today will be yet again our most 804 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:09,840 Speaker 10: intense day of strikes inside Iran, the most fighters, the 805 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:15,439 Speaker 10: most bombers, the most strikes, intelligence, more refined and better 806 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 10: than ever. 807 00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 11: So that's on one hand. On the other hand, the 808 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:20,240 Speaker 11: last twenty. 809 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 10: Four hours have seen Iran fire the lowest number of 810 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 10: missiles they've been capable of firing yet. Just the bifurcation, 811 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 10: just the trend lines that we talked about on our 812 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 10: first briefing. 813 00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 11: You see, this is not two thousand and three. 814 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 10: This is not endless nation building under those types of 815 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 10: quagmires we saw under Bush or Obama. 816 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,239 Speaker 1: David, I want to get your take on what he 817 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: said there. 818 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 4: But also I remember the last time Secretary of War 819 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 4: Pete Heikseth took that podium and he talked about total 820 00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,720 Speaker 4: air dominance would be taking place in the next few hours, 821 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 4: within the next twenty four hours. I didn't get that 822 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:07,799 Speaker 4: sense today that there is total air dominance. There's obviously superiority. 823 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 4: I mean, they'll be able to fly over or on 824 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:14,280 Speaker 4: Iranian airspace, but I felt like it was a little 825 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,680 Speaker 4: bit more subdued today. I remember last time, he's like, 826 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,840 Speaker 4: they're toast, it's over. We've got this and now I 827 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 4: feel like they're just dialing back a little bit on 828 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 4: the expectations. 829 00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: David. 830 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 24: I don't have the same recollection or perspective from the 831 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 24: last briefing because they did say, you know, within about 832 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 24: a week we would have total dominance. Now it is 833 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 24: a week later, right, So I think there's more work 834 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 24: to do here, for sure, there's no doubt about that. 835 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:47,160 Speaker 24: And I think that he's on the war fighters mission, right, 836 00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 24: He's not here to make policy for the United States 837 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:53,439 Speaker 24: going forward. And if you heard General Kine talk about 838 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:57,360 Speaker 24: these dedicated sailors from the flight deck teams of the 839 00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 24: Gerald Ford and from the Abraham Lincoln, and these guys 840 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 24: are the best of the best, and their mission is 841 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 24: to keep focused on the mission at hand, to continue 842 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:12,280 Speaker 24: until you know they can, you know, have that total dominance. 843 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 24: I didn't get a feeling that there was a worry 844 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 24: about our long protracted air campaign yet. But we'll keep 845 00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 24: a close eye on that, Dave. And it's very important, 846 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,919 Speaker 24: right so we need that air superiority, and we also 847 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 24: need to know And somebody asked the great question today, 848 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,960 Speaker 24: you know, Cat Jordan Conrads and from the Gateway Pundit, 849 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 24: what happens. If you ask plane is shot down over there, 850 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,279 Speaker 24: if there was something like that happened, do we send 851 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:39,760 Speaker 24: ground troops on the ground and a rescue mission putting 852 00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:43,520 Speaker 24: American you know lives you know on the board, so 853 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 24: you know it's there are questions going forward, but I 854 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,440 Speaker 24: think again they're very laser focused on the mission. 855 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 7: David Zero reporting for us on the ground at the 856 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 7: Pentagon with the very latest after Secretary of War Pete 857 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:00,840 Speaker 7: hank Seth and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of 858 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 7: Staff Dan Kin, just hosted the news conference.

Let's get more reaction and bringing the Chairman 867 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 4: of the American Defense International that would. 868 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 1: Be Van Hip. Van give us some of your takes 869 00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:42,919 Speaker 1: and reactions to what you heard. 870 00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:47,440 Speaker 4: The aftermath question was interesting because we really don't know 871 00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 4: what's going to happen afterwards. 872 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,320 Speaker 1: And also the fact that in terms of when this war. 873 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:54,839 Speaker 4: Finally ends, I mean, I think Pete Haigseth was very 874 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 4: clear it'll end when Trump wants it to end. 875 00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,360 Speaker 26: Good morning, That's exactly right. And you have to go 876 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 26: back to what the president's initial goal to ensure that 877 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:07,720 Speaker 26: Iran an Islamic Terras regime never has a nuclear weapon. 878 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,279 Speaker 26: And also I think what was was sticking in the 879 00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 26: back of President Trump's mind is what those gold Star 880 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:17,600 Speaker 26: families told him, finished the job, finished the job, to 881 00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 26: make sure that this terrorist regime can never ever have 882 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:26,160 Speaker 26: a nuclear weapon. David, I go back to when President 883 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 26: Trump announced Operation Epic Fury, and he spoke to the 884 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:33,400 Speaker 26: Iranian people. He said, stay sheltered, stay inside, stay inside. 885 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:35,759 Speaker 26: He's not told him yet to come outside. I think 886 00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 26: if there were a referendum, seventy five eighty percent of 887 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:42,320 Speaker 26: the people there are freedom loving and they won't freedom 888 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:45,440 Speaker 26: the question. And so I think at some point, and 889 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 26: I hope this is true, I think at some point 890 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 26: President Trump says, come on out of your homes, come 891 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:53,120 Speaker 26: on outside, and we've seen what they can do in 892 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 26: the past. You had to come back to two thousand 893 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 26: and now you had hundreds and hundreds of thousands in 894 00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 26: the streets, and just a few weeks ago too. But 895 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 26: I think I think what the administration is wrestling with 896 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:06,879 Speaker 26: what is the framework when these people do come out, 897 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 26: how do they take their government back? Is what is 898 00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 26: the framework? And so I think that's what the administration 899 00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:16,000 Speaker 26: is wrestling with. I do think the president is holding 900 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,239 Speaker 26: the cards, and I do think the Raney and people 901 00:51:18,280 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 26: are with them. And I got to tell you, I 902 00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 26: think it was a tough decision he made a president 903 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,240 Speaker 26: and me he made a decision that North American president 904 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:28,880 Speaker 26: has made. But I'm going to tell you honestly, but 905 00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:31,439 Speaker 26: I've studied the nuclear program of Ron for many years, 906 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:35,879 Speaker 26: the blistered missile capability. They're enriched uranium activities and they're 907 00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:40,360 Speaker 26: miniaturized nuclear warhead design. David, this president made the right 908 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 26: made the right decision for our children and our children's children. 909 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:48,279 Speaker 4: Man, what do you say to folks in MAGA who 910 00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:50,879 Speaker 4: will say, look, what in the world are we even 911 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:51,719 Speaker 4: doing over there? 912 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:53,759 Speaker 1: Let's just stay out of this type of stuff that 913 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:54,879 Speaker 1: never ends well. 914 00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 4: And the truth of the matter is is that there 915 00:51:58,000 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 4: is going to be a decision that has to be 916 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 4: made when all of this is said and done. In 917 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 4: the aftermath, President Trump says he wants a say. 918 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 1: Obviously he wants. 919 00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 4: To say, and America will have a say, and who 920 00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 4: runs around next? Basically, I mean, if I can just 921 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 4: be very blunt, we're choosing. I know, I know everybody 922 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,919 Speaker 4: talks about the America. The raining people will choose their leader. 923 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:23,719 Speaker 4: That's fine, I get that. But the truth of the 924 00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:27,080 Speaker 4: matter is America has its footprints and fingerprints all over 925 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 4: this and that is raising concerns within some inside MAGA. 926 00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:34,759 Speaker 1: Not all, for sure. I think the majority of MAGA 927 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 1: is with President Trump, but some do have concerns. 928 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 26: Yeah, And I think that's exactly why Secretary Higgsith addressed 929 00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 26: this head on and he said, this is not another rack. 930 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:48,719 Speaker 26: And I think this president adheres to what I call 931 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:52,920 Speaker 26: a combination of the Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon of 932 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:55,840 Speaker 26: philosophy of when you do commit troops and when you 933 00:52:55,920 --> 00:53:00,640 Speaker 26: do engage in a in a military operation, you have 934 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:06,000 Speaker 26: to have a national security interest, clearly defined mission. And 935 00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 26: I have my own test to it as well. You 936 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 26: have to have an extra strategy. How do you get 937 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:13,320 Speaker 26: out of there? And I don't think, you know, I 938 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:16,279 Speaker 26: think this president and Secretary hegg Sith understand that. I 939 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:19,160 Speaker 26: think that's why you saw Secretory hegg Sith say what 940 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:22,240 Speaker 26: he did. But having said that, I think the MAGA folks, 941 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:25,919 Speaker 26: and I mean I was one of the first national 942 00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 26: security of folks in this country to support President Trump 943 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:34,600 Speaker 26: going back to twenty fifteen. But I believe, and I 944 00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:37,840 Speaker 26: think the majority of the American people, including MAGA, believes 945 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:40,239 Speaker 26: that the role of the commander in chief is to 946 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 26: keep the American people safe. And that's the number one 947 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:45,440 Speaker 26: function of the federal government. That's why the states came 948 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 26: together to provide for the common defense. And I think 949 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:51,880 Speaker 26: this president faced a very grim reality because of what 950 00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,200 Speaker 26: Obama and others had done with this Iran deal, which 951 00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:59,640 Speaker 26: would eventually let them have go back to the nuclear activities, 952 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,120 Speaker 26: did not address the missile capability. I think this president 953 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 26: looked at all that and said, you know, a deal 954 00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:08,680 Speaker 26: with this regime, with an Islamic terrorist regime that his 955 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,839 Speaker 26: vow death to America is as worthless as a deal 956 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,279 Speaker 26: that Neville Chamblain cut with the Nazi regime in the 957 00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 26: late nineteen thirties. I think he was faced with that, 958 00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:20,640 Speaker 26: and I think he made the made the right decision 959 00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:22,920 Speaker 26: for future generations of Americans. 960 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 1: Van Hip, great insight. 961 00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:26,520 Speaker 4: We got to have you back because I have a 962 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,319 Speaker 4: question for you next, which is what are you gonna 963 00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:30,359 Speaker 4: do with the oil? But we'll have to come back 964 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 4: to that another time. Van, all the best, sire, Thanks again, 965 00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:36,160 Speaker 4: Thank you, sir.

I'm telling you right now what 1003 00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:40,359 Speaker 4: the headlines are going to be. With the headset thing 1004 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 4: religious war it's on. I'm telling you that's happening. We've 1005 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,480 Speaker 4: always looked at this from a Judeo Christian standpoint, as 1006 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:54,080 Speaker 4: relates to spiritual warfare. We know that that God has 1007 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 4: richly blessed America. The fact that Pete Hegseth quoted Psalm One, 1008 00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:03,040 Speaker 4: quoted the Bible. You've got Iran quoting the Koran. 1009 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:05,480 Speaker 1: They believe that this is all. 1010 00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 4: They think they're going to heaven with seventy seven or 1011 00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:11,120 Speaker 4: whatever it is, virgins and all that. You know, they're not, 1012 00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 4: by the way, Gina, I'm telling you, and I think 1013 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 4: you agree with this, that this is being now going to. 1014 00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:21,040 Speaker 1: Be cloaked as a religious war. It's already on Iran side. 1015 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:23,160 Speaker 4: And now the fact that Pete Hegseth has said this, 1016 00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:26,080 Speaker 4: I'm telling you, I think it just took a turn 1017 00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 4: in an interesting sort of way. 1018 00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:32,120 Speaker 8: Do you think that's a bad thing, David Birdie, I'm 1019 00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:34,240 Speaker 8: having trouble perceiving because of some of the things that 1020 00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:38,000 Speaker 8: the Congressman said. Okay, yeah, I didn't think that you did, no, 1021 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:42,439 Speaker 8: But the Congressman said, we have to be very careful here. 1022 00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,680 Speaker 8: Do you have some interpretation of what he meant by that. 1023 00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 4: I think he just feels that God is looking over 1024 00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:52,880 Speaker 4: the United States of America, and the fact that he 1025 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:54,080 Speaker 4: would actually go there. 1026 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 1: I think suggests that there's going. 1027 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 4: To be a lot of that's adding some fuel to 1028 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 4: the I think is what Congressman Mark Golfer was basically saying. 1029 00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,320 Speaker 1: And we have to be careful here on that. Having 1030 00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 1: said that, no, we don't, and what I mean by 1031 00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 1: that is. 1032 00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:14,720 Speaker 4: Straight up Pete Hegseth is absolutely correct that God has 1033 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:17,120 Speaker 4: been watching out for the United States of America. We 1034 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:19,520 Speaker 4: don't go by the Koran, we go from the Bible, 1035 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 4: and that is accurate what he's saying. Having said that, 1036 00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:25,280 Speaker 4: I do think it would could take it to another level, 1037 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,960 Speaker 4: but what he's saying is absolutely accurate. 1038 00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:34,320 Speaker 8: Yeah, it is interesting. I think the minute we shy 1039 00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 8: from the fact that this is a Christian nation is 1040 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:41,120 Speaker 8: the minute we remove God's hand and protection. And so 1041 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,480 Speaker 8: I agree with you, I think we go bullish on 1042 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:45,360 Speaker 8: this terrace it. 1043 00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:47,120 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts, Yeah. 1044 00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean the reality is this is a religious 1045 00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 7: war from the perspective of the Iranians, and God has 1046 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 7: us protected. God has this country protected, and so we 1047 00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 7: are operating in the right place. We are doing what's 1048 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:02,480 Speaker 7: right for the rest of the world and protecting the 1049 00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:04,760 Speaker 7: rest of the world as well as this country. So 1050 00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:09,040 Speaker 7: kudos to President Trump, and kudos to Secretary Hegseth for 1051 00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:13,920 Speaker 7: invoking the Bible in this religious war, because that's ultimately 1052 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:15,920 Speaker 7: what it is. That's just the reality, whether we want 1053 00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:16,960 Speaker 7: to admit it or not. 1054 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 3: Guys. 1055 00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:19,400 Speaker 7: In the meantime, I want to get to a couple 1056 00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 7: of quick headlines to kind of flesh out what we 1057 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 7: just heard from the Secretary, because just moments ago, Secretary 1058 00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:26,960 Speaker 7: Hegseth and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, 1059 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:30,520 Speaker 7: General Dan Kane, wrapped up an update on the battle 1060 00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:34,040 Speaker 7: operations there in Iran, the Secretary laying out the impact 1061 00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:37,000 Speaker 7: of the air strikes on Iran and why this operation 1062 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:38,800 Speaker 7: isn't about nation building. 1063 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:43,720 Speaker 10: Today will be yet again our most intense day of 1064 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 10: strikes inside Iran, the most fighters, the most bombers, the 1065 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 10: most strikes, intelligence, more refined and better than ever. 1066 00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 11: So that's on one hand. On the other hand, the 1067 00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 11: last twenty. 1068 00:59:57,400 --> 01:00:00,640 Speaker 10: Four hours have seen Iran fire the lowest number of 1069 01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 10: missiles they've been capable of firing yet, just the bifurcation, 1070 01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:09,440 Speaker 10: just the trend lines that we talked about on our 1071 01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:13,040 Speaker 10: first briefing. You see, this is not two thousand and three, 1072 01:00:14,080 --> 01:00:18,640 Speaker 10: This is not endless nation building under those types of 1073 01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:21,440 Speaker 10: quagmuyers we saw under Bush or Obama. 1074 01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:27,680 Speaker 7: The issue of Iran will likely be part of the conversation. 1075 01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:30,960 Speaker 7: As Republican lawmakers in the US House are continuing their 1076 01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:34,480 Speaker 7: three day Angle retreat at President Trump's Raw Resort today 1077 01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:37,520 Speaker 7: on Monday, the Commander in Chief address the group as 1078 01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:40,640 Speaker 7: it is working to sharpen the party's messaging leading up 1079 01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:44,320 Speaker 7: to November's midterm elections. During his remarks, forty seven also 1080 01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:48,880 Speaker 7: pressing lawmakers to pass the Save America Hat. House Republicans 1081 01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 7: are also looking to find a way forward on issues 1082 01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:55,440 Speaker 7: like the affordability crisis. The debate over funding for the 1083 01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 7: Department of Homeland Security could ratchet up as travelers become 1084 01:00:59,120 --> 01:01:02,800 Speaker 7: increasingly fresh strated about out of control tsa wait times 1085 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 7: look at this video here, folks shut down and do. 1086 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:09,920 Speaker 7: Staffing problems at the Transportation Safety Administration are already creating 1087 01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:13,920 Speaker 7: massive delays at airports across the country. Passengers in Houston, 1088 01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:17,760 Speaker 7: for instance, have reportedly been dealing with the worst delays 1089 01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:21,280 Speaker 7: as lines consistently have been lasting more than three hours 1090 01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:25,200 Speaker 7: over the past several days, and the two men accused 1091 01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:27,760 Speaker 7: of trying to detonate a homemade bomb during an anti 1092 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:31,400 Speaker 7: Islam protest near New York. Mayor Zor and Mandami's home 1093 01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 7: are facing terrorism charges this morning. The eighteen and nineteen 1094 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,320 Speaker 7: year olds were in federal court on Monday and charged 1095 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:40,920 Speaker 7: with attempting to support the Islamic state, along with the 1096 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:44,280 Speaker 7: use of a weapon of mass destruction and unlawful possession 1097 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 7: of explosive devices, among a long list of charges. One 1098 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:50,520 Speaker 7: of the guys was caught on camera throwing the homemade bomb, 1099 01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:54,720 Speaker 7: which was laced with metal and powerful explosives, at protesters. 1100 01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 7: The good news is the device didn't detonate and no 1101 01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:01,320 Speaker 7: one was hurt. That's check of your headlines. Now let's 1102 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:03,400 Speaker 7: get a quick check of your forecast with Weather Nation 1103 01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:05,919 Speaker 7: Media Religius Tracy Anthony Tracy, good. 1104 01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 27: Morning, Hey, Good morning, Terrence. We are tracking strong to 1105 01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:14,640 Speaker 27: severe thunderstorms once again today. So the outlook area is 1106 01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:18,840 Speaker 27: going to be pretty widespread, as we're talking severe weather 1107 01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:21,320 Speaker 27: from the Great Lakes all the way down through the 1108 01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:23,640 Speaker 27: Texas border. And we're going to have two hotspots right 1109 01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:27,640 Speaker 27: around Chicago and then between Oklahoma City and Del Rio. 1110 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 27: So this is where we could have powerful tornadoes and 1111 01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 27: hail at least for Texas over three and a half 1112 01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:38,240 Speaker 27: inches in diameter. Out west, we're talking blizzard conditions for 1113 01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:42,720 Speaker 27: the Cascades, and out east it is record warmth. We're 1114 01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 27: talking temperatures thirty degrees above average. So that's what's going 1115 01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:49,000 Speaker 27: to fuel these showers and storms over the next couple 1116 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:52,520 Speaker 27: of days, because that severe weather threat will shift farther 1117 01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:56,480 Speaker 27: east for the day on Wednesday. So lots of activity. 1118 01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:58,760 Speaker 27: But one thing we often don't think about is with 1119 01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:01,680 Speaker 27: these warm temperatures all the way up to New England, 1120 01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:04,880 Speaker 27: the northeast is ice jams. We're going to be talking 1121 01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:08,280 Speaker 27: about rapid snow melt with Boston getting up to seventy 1122 01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:10,919 Speaker 27: three degrees today, and so we could have some more 1123 01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:14,040 Speaker 27: localized flooding issues Terrence, over the next few days. We've 1124 01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:16,240 Speaker 27: also been talking about it's kind of that muddy season, 1125 01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 27: so you get a little bit of heat, you get 1126 01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:21,160 Speaker 27: a little snow, and you get kind of all the problems. 1127 01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:25,000 Speaker 7: All right, thank you so much, Tracy. We'll check back 1128 01:03:25,040 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 7: with you tomorrow. I have a great rest of the. 1129 01:03:26,440 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 3: Day, you too, Thank you, Thank you. 1130 01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:31,800 Speaker 7: All right, let's get you back over to David Brodie. David, 1131 01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:33,920 Speaker 7: a lot to talk about this morning. 1132 01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:36,520 Speaker 1: No doubt about it, Tea Bates. All Right. 1133 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 4: President Trump took to the podium yesterday down in Miami 1134 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:42,520 Speaker 4: during a Republican Conference meeting that's still going on today 1135 01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:46,520 Speaker 4: today is day too. He praised ongoing combat operations in Iran, 1136 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:49,680 Speaker 4: calling American objectives in the region pretty well complete, but 1137 01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 4: the job not done yet. 1138 01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 1: Here was the president yesterday. 1139 01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:53,120 Speaker 3: Have a look. 1140 01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:55,360 Speaker 25: Did they have no navy, they have no air force, 1141 01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 25: they have no anti aircraft equipment. 1142 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:01,080 Speaker 13: It's all been blown up. 1143 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:05,280 Speaker 25: They have no radar, they have no telecommunications, and they 1144 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:06,200 Speaker 25: have no leadership. 1145 01:04:06,560 --> 01:04:09,920 Speaker 13: It's all gone. So you know, you could look at 1146 01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:10,520 Speaker 13: that statement. 1147 01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:14,440 Speaker 25: Could we could call it a tremendous success right now 1148 01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:17,280 Speaker 25: as we leave here, I could call it, or we could. 1149 01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:23,320 Speaker 13: Go further, and we're going to go further, all right. 1150 01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:25,600 Speaker 1: Joining us now with analysis is the editor in chief 1151 01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:27,720 Speaker 1: for Just the News. That would be John Solomon. 1152 01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,080 Speaker 4: John, always good to see you, so curious to get 1153 01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,880 Speaker 4: your take on Trump's comments. Also, Secretary of War Pete 1154 01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:34,880 Speaker 4: heggset this morning. 1155 01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:40,280 Speaker 1: I mean, clearly, you know, the Secretary of War said. 1156 01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:42,600 Speaker 4: That in essence I'm paraphrasing, but he goes, this war 1157 01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:44,440 Speaker 4: is going to end when Trump wants it to end. 1158 01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:46,320 Speaker 1: I'm just wondering what that looks like exactly. 1159 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 22: Good morning, Well, looks like what a commander in chief 1160 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,920 Speaker 22: does when he's fully in charge of his apparatus, Unlike 1161 01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:54,280 Speaker 22: our last commander in chief, where there was always ambiguity. 1162 01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:57,520 Speaker 22: Were we withdrawing from Afghanistan? Was it in orderly withdrawal? 1163 01:04:58,040 --> 01:05:00,400 Speaker 22: You have a strong sense of what President Trump wants 1164 01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:03,000 Speaker 22: to achieve. First, he gives you the objectives, right, we're 1165 01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:05,160 Speaker 22: going to make sure their millistic missiles can't hit the 1166 01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:07,600 Speaker 22: United States, that they can't harm their own people, that 1167 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 22: they can't develop a nuclear weapon. He then carries out 1168 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:14,040 Speaker 22: those objectives last summer, takes out the nuclear programs progress 1169 01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 22: so that they can't enrich quickly. And now he's going 1170 01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:19,840 Speaker 22: in and making sure that leadership can't use that iranium, 1171 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:22,720 Speaker 22: doesn't don't use the missiles that one day would reach 1172 01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:25,680 Speaker 22: the United States. By the way, the intelligence indicating that 1173 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:28,040 Speaker 22: that was going to happen sooner than twenty thirty five 1174 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:30,760 Speaker 22: the earlier projections. So Trump wasn't going to let that 1175 01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:33,960 Speaker 22: get any closer. He does that, and when those objectives 1176 01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,480 Speaker 22: are fully mad, I think the President will say it's over. 1177 01:05:36,560 --> 01:05:38,760 Speaker 22: And it's time for the Iranian people to come out 1178 01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:40,680 Speaker 22: of their homes and take control of their government, and 1179 01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:43,480 Speaker 22: that will be the next phase of the conflict. Can 1180 01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:48,160 Speaker 22: the Iranian government? Can the Iranian people overthrow their extraordinarily 1181 01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:52,280 Speaker 22: demolished government and their weekend military? Why is ptexsaying TA 1182 01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:54,880 Speaker 22: could be the most intense state. Now that you have 1183 01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:57,960 Speaker 22: air superiority, Now that you have their anti ballistic missiles 1184 01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:01,920 Speaker 22: basically finished off, that you have their leadership handicapped, the 1185 01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:06,360 Speaker 22: communications significantly hampered, you go after the Republican National Guard, 1186 01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 22: which is the most sorry, the Republican Guard, the IRGC, 1187 01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:14,040 Speaker 22: the most powerful element of the Iranian military. It's most 1188 01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:17,200 Speaker 22: feared part of the military, the one that's turned on 1189 01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:19,840 Speaker 22: its people, the one that is targeted the president for 1190 01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:23,760 Speaker 22: assassination and led terror attacks around the world, including maiming 1191 01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 22: thousands of our soldiers. 1192 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:26,240 Speaker 1: They're in bunkers. 1193 01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:29,080 Speaker 22: We now can come in with bigger planes with bigger 1194 01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:32,880 Speaker 22: bombs and drop these bunker buster bombs onto these locations 1195 01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 22: where the IRGC is located and eliminate them and bring 1196 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:39,240 Speaker 22: their forces down. They're forty fifty thousand strong. That's still 1197 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:43,720 Speaker 22: a very capable army. Getting that diminished will really free 1198 01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:46,560 Speaker 22: Iran to a new future. And I think that's the 1199 01:06:46,600 --> 01:06:47,960 Speaker 22: phase of the war we're in right now. 1200 01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:52,800 Speaker 7: How involved do you think the United States ultimately will 1201 01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:54,720 Speaker 7: be in that new Iranian future. 1202 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 22: I think it'll have a hand extended once it's figured 1203 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:00,840 Speaker 22: out who we should extend that hand to. You know, 1204 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 22: Iran is generally a Western nation when you look at 1205 01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:06,760 Speaker 22: its people. They love our television, they love our entertainment. 1206 01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:09,760 Speaker 22: It's just been their theocratic leadership that has created all 1207 01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:12,440 Speaker 22: of this mayhem for the last forty seven years. So 1208 01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:16,520 Speaker 22: Iran is a national, not naturally Western facing country. Once 1209 01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:18,400 Speaker 22: you get the crazy leadership out of the way, and 1210 01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 22: so I think we'll be engaged. I think we'll be 1211 01:07:21,160 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 22: engaged much like we've been engaged with Syria in Venezuela. 1212 01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:27,480 Speaker 22: We probably won't dictate what form of government they have, 1213 01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:30,520 Speaker 22: and we won't get involved in nation building. Those are 1214 01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:34,160 Speaker 22: two things that were terrible mistakes in the Afghan and 1215 01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:38,720 Speaker 22: Iraq wars. But holding our hand out, letting the people decide, 1216 01:07:39,080 --> 01:07:43,440 Speaker 22: creating economic opportunities, and maybe with China included, so that 1217 01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:46,080 Speaker 22: China can get its energy back and feel good about 1218 01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:48,480 Speaker 22: the outcome of this conflict. I think those are the 1219 01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:51,240 Speaker 22: ways that you'll see our diplomacy involved. I just don't 1220 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:54,280 Speaker 22: think we'll be involved in an interim government or you know, 1221 01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:56,480 Speaker 22: remember what we did in Iraq. We actually created the 1222 01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:59,240 Speaker 22: provisional authority that turned out to be a disaster and 1223 01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 22: gave rise to an insurgency that harmed our troops for 1224 01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:04,160 Speaker 22: years to come. So I think it'll be a much 1225 01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:06,920 Speaker 22: more measured engagement, but a clear engagement. 1226 01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:13,880 Speaker 8: John, just the news broke some news actually again as usual, 1227 01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:18,559 Speaker 8: reporting President Trump and his supporters have been targeted by 1228 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:25,840 Speaker 8: four consecutive FBI code named counter intelligence investigations. This was 1229 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:30,439 Speaker 8: not just something that was done under the Biden regime, 1230 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:34,759 Speaker 8: but also it was put into a sort of a category. 1231 01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:38,400 Speaker 8: If you can just explain where even the current FBI 1232 01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:40,880 Speaker 8: didn't have access to. 1233 01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:43,120 Speaker 2: This because of the way it was coded. 1234 01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:47,599 Speaker 8: Can you explain not just what happened and why it happened, 1235 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:51,080 Speaker 8: but how they kept it a secret even from the FBI, 1236 01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:52,719 Speaker 8: even from Trump's FBI. 1237 01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:55,120 Speaker 22: Yeah, these are great questions. 1238 01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:55,400 Speaker 15: Listen. 1239 01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:57,880 Speaker 22: At the end of the day, Genom, what we now 1240 01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:00,519 Speaker 22: know for certain is that for most to the first 1241 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:03,160 Speaker 22: nine years of Donald Trump's political career, for the moment 1242 01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:05,920 Speaker 22: he walked down the escalator to the moment he raised 1243 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,400 Speaker 22: his hand a second time. At the inauguration in January 1244 01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:11,680 Speaker 22: twenty twenty five, the FBI secretly treated him as a 1245 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:14,800 Speaker 22: continuous national security threat. To think about that, the man 1246 01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:18,040 Speaker 22: twice elected by the American people, the FBI deemed to 1247 01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:20,720 Speaker 22: be a national security threat, and as a result, they 1248 01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:25,400 Speaker 22: subjected him to four consecutive code named Connor intelligence investigations, 1249 01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:28,160 Speaker 22: the sort of things that we normally reserve for spies 1250 01:09:28,200 --> 01:09:31,160 Speaker 22: and terrorists. We know about Crossfire Hurricane, that was Russia collusion. 1251 01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:34,320 Speaker 22: We know about Arctic frost. That's one that we recently 1252 01:09:34,400 --> 01:09:38,040 Speaker 22: revealed last fall. In between were two others, Round River 1253 01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:42,240 Speaker 22: and a plasmic Echo, and those two may be the 1254 01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:45,519 Speaker 22: most jaw dropping yet to be revealed. The fbis in 1255 01:09:45,560 --> 01:09:49,520 Speaker 22: the process of classifying that information. But in those circumstances, 1256 01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:52,519 Speaker 22: hundreds of people were targeted, and in some cases they 1257 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:55,479 Speaker 22: were targeted merely by the words they chose to use 1258 01:09:56,200 --> 01:09:58,720 Speaker 22: on air, or on their social posts or in their 1259 01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:03,559 Speaker 22: private conversations, specifically about Hunter Biden, Ukraine and Joe Biden. 1260 01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:07,280 Speaker 22: That is what Round River is going to ultimately expose 1261 01:10:07,880 --> 01:10:10,479 Speaker 22: in the case of the classified documents, you had two 1262 01:10:10,560 --> 01:10:13,920 Speaker 22: presidents that ultimately had documents in their home. One walks 1263 01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:16,800 Speaker 22: Scott free. The other has his home rateed and uh 1264 01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:21,800 Speaker 22: and is treated as a criminal. This continuous assault on 1265 01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:25,519 Speaker 22: the president is the basis of now a grand jury 1266 01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 22: investigation looking at whether the president, whether the president's foes 1267 01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:33,640 Speaker 22: and these agencies engaged in a conspiracy to deprive them 1268 01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:36,160 Speaker 22: of his civil liberties and to deprive not only the 1269 01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:41,519 Speaker 22: President but lawyers, journalists, filmmakers, congressional staffers who worked or 1270 01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:43,760 Speaker 22: supported or did things at the president liked. And I 1271 01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:45,479 Speaker 22: think that's what we're headed. 1272 01:10:45,280 --> 01:10:50,720 Speaker 4: Towards the wisdom of Solomon John breaking new Solomon with 1273 01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:52,679 Speaker 4: us today with the full name John. 1274 01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:55,800 Speaker 1: I understand that was a change on hers certificate. Thank you, sir. 1275 01:10:56,880 --> 01:11:00,720 Speaker 1: Thanks guys. All right, coming up, the son of the 1276 01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:03,320 Speaker 1: late Jesse Jackson didn't seem happy with. 1277 01:11:03,439 --> 01:11:06,200 Speaker 4: The three former presidents that spoke at his father's memorial 1278 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:07,320 Speaker 4: service over the weekend. 1279 01:11:07,439 --> 01:11:09,559 Speaker 1: Now he's calling them out directly. We're going to talk 1280 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:10,360 Speaker 1: about it after the break. 1281 01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:33,400 Speaker 28: Cigre, welcome back to American sun Rise. I'm Emily Finn. 1282 01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:35,000 Speaker 28: It's time out to drain the swamp. 1283 01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:37,800 Speaker 29: And this morning we are flushing out the politicization of 1284 01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:40,600 Speaker 29: a civil rights icon. A moment meant to honor a 1285 01:11:40,640 --> 01:11:44,160 Speaker 29: civil rights icon is now sparking controversy. During his father's 1286 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 29: memorial service, Jesse Jackson Junior took direct aim at former 1287 01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:52,600 Speaker 29: Presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden, saying the 1288 01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:55,439 Speaker 29: three men who spoke at the service didn't really know 1289 01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:58,880 Speaker 29: the man that they were honoring. Jackson Junior said his father, 1290 01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:03,360 Speaker 29: the late Reverend Jackson, was never defined by politics or party, 1291 01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:08,360 Speaker 29: but by his commitment to speaking for the disinherited, the dispossessed, 1292 01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:10,280 Speaker 29: and the disrespected. 1293 01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:11,200 Speaker 28: Let's take a look. 1294 01:12:12,479 --> 01:12:21,280 Speaker 30: I listened for several hours of three United States presidents 1295 01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:32,599 Speaker 30: who do not know Jesse Jackson. He maintained a tense 1296 01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:40,080 Speaker 30: relationship with the political order, not because the presidents were 1297 01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:44,439 Speaker 30: white or black, but the demands of our message. 1298 01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:45,760 Speaker 28: We want to know what you think. 1299 01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:47,920 Speaker 29: Let us know on rumble or get her hop on 1300 01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:50,240 Speaker 29: and let your voice be heard. Coming up, the price 1301 01:12:50,280 --> 01:12:52,960 Speaker 29: of oil is exploding on the markets and almost every 1302 01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:56,080 Speaker 29: American is feeling the pinch. What's really driving this surge 1303 01:12:56,280 --> 01:13:00,000 Speaker 29: We'll talk about it after the break.

It's manipulation, speculation, 1364 01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:56,599 Speaker 33: and thievery. 1365 01:15:56,800 --> 01:15:57,320 Speaker 13: That's all it is. 1366 01:15:57,439 --> 01:16:00,080 Speaker 33: David, there is no justification for supplying the man in 1367 01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:03,160 Speaker 33: the world oil markets. We have great reserves of oil 1368 01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 33: and gasoline. Yes it went to almost one hundred and 1369 01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:08,839 Speaker 33: twenty dollars a gallon. Oil prices fell forty dollars yesterday. 1370 01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:11,280 Speaker 33: It's now back in the mid to upper eighty dollars 1371 01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:13,920 Speaker 33: per barrel, which means the price of gasoline across the 1372 01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:17,240 Speaker 33: country should go up about fifty cents. Watch what I'm 1373 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:18,920 Speaker 33: going to tell you right now. The oil companies in 1374 01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:20,880 Speaker 33: America will post record profits this year. 1375 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:22,960 Speaker 13: Because this is thievery. They ought to be a shamed 1376 01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:23,479 Speaker 13: of themselves. 1377 01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:26,439 Speaker 33: There's no justification whatsoever for the oil price is to 1378 01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:29,280 Speaker 33: go to one twenty nine. Listen, America gets four percent 1379 01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:31,560 Speaker 33: of its oil from the Middle East, four percent. This 1380 01:16:31,720 --> 01:16:33,960 Speaker 33: is more important for China and Indian others. It's not 1381 01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:36,400 Speaker 33: that important in the United States. And the strait of 1382 01:16:36,439 --> 01:16:39,320 Speaker 33: horror moves has been gained by Lloyd's of London who 1383 01:16:39,400 --> 01:16:42,679 Speaker 33: canceled insurance policies. Gee, I wonder why that is again 1384 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:45,400 Speaker 33: profit taking by those in London and New York and 1385 01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:49,880 Speaker 33: elsewhere who are profiting wildly from a false increase in 1386 01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:50,519 Speaker 33: the oil price. 1387 01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:53,439 Speaker 13: That's all it is. There is no real justification here. 1388 01:16:53,920 --> 01:16:55,639 Speaker 33: The fact of the matter is we have great reserves 1389 01:16:55,680 --> 01:16:58,080 Speaker 33: of oil and gasoline that's a fat Gasoline should go 1390 01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:00,040 Speaker 33: up fifty cents a gallon based on what's happened. I 1391 01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:03,360 Speaker 33: don't forget my friends. Oil was one hundred and thirty 1392 01:17:03,439 --> 01:17:06,080 Speaker 33: nine dollars a barrel under Joe Biden. I don't remember 1393 01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:09,040 Speaker 33: how Keem Jefferys and Chuck Schimmer throwing a fit over that, 1394 01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:11,960 Speaker 33: do you, because I don't have that in my in 1395 01:17:12,080 --> 01:17:14,080 Speaker 33: my loop here, I don't see it, David. 1396 01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:16,920 Speaker 13: I think I think we're being lied to in the 1397 01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:17,679 Speaker 13: oil companies. 1398 01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:20,320 Speaker 33: There is somebody that Don Trobot to calls billionaire friends 1399 01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:22,600 Speaker 33: in the oil industry to say, stop it whatever, you 1400 01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:24,839 Speaker 33: just stop it, because you're playing games with the American 1401 01:17:24,920 --> 01:17:26,160 Speaker 33: consumer and the rest of the world. 1402 01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:26,760 Speaker 13: That's a fact. 1403 01:17:27,080 --> 01:17:28,920 Speaker 33: And when oil went back down, the market was up 1404 01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:33,240 Speaker 33: three hundred points yesterday. So to the doom of gloom crowd, sorry, 1405 01:17:33,520 --> 01:17:36,679 Speaker 33: no apocalypse yet, stick with it, You'll be fine. 1406 01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 4: So are you surprised that Trump hasn't called this out already? 1407 01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:43,599 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, this has been in the news 1408 01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:46,599 Speaker 4: now for a week or so, and definitely over the weekend. 1409 01:17:46,600 --> 01:17:49,680 Speaker 4: I'm surprised Trump hasn't said, stop with this. We get 1410 01:17:49,720 --> 01:17:54,160 Speaker 4: four percent from over there. These oil companies are gouging consumers. 1411 01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:58,840 Speaker 1: Why hasn't he done something? You should say something, you know, 1412 01:17:59,280 --> 01:17:59,680 Speaker 1: But you. 1413 01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:02,600 Speaker 33: Know, we've watched this our entire you know, there's a 1414 01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:04,840 Speaker 33: little influx somewhere in the little hiccup somewhere in the 1415 01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:07,280 Speaker 33: oil markets. Boom, your price of gas goes up, fifty cents, 1416 01:18:07,280 --> 01:18:09,759 Speaker 33: and then it goes up immediately and then real slowly 1417 01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:10,519 Speaker 33: comes down. 1418 01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:12,080 Speaker 13: I mean, come on, the. 1419 01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:14,000 Speaker 33: Gas is already in the ground, the gas is already 1420 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:17,080 Speaker 33: at the refineries. We've got an increase in Venezuela that'll 1421 01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:18,439 Speaker 33: take a couple of years to ramp up. But they 1422 01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:20,599 Speaker 33: went from seven hundred thousand barrels, they broke a million. 1423 01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:22,080 Speaker 33: They should be at three and a half million barrels 1424 01:18:22,120 --> 01:18:22,320 Speaker 33: a day. 1425 01:18:22,360 --> 01:18:24,200 Speaker 13: That'll take a couple of years to play out completely. 1426 01:18:24,560 --> 01:18:27,080 Speaker 33: The Strait of Hormoz, Yeah, traffic there has dropped, what 1427 01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:30,360 Speaker 33: ninety percent or more, but no ships have been hit there. 1428 01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:31,680 Speaker 13: The United States Navy is going. 1429 01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:34,519 Speaker 33: To offer assistance and guidance to those ships, run them 1430 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:37,920 Speaker 33: through there to make sure they're safe. We've pulverized Iron's 1431 01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:39,360 Speaker 33: industry for missiles. 1432 01:18:39,479 --> 01:18:40,559 Speaker 13: The drones are the concern. 1433 01:18:40,720 --> 01:18:42,640 Speaker 33: These Unmann drones that they can produce for about ten 1434 01:18:42,880 --> 01:18:45,360 Speaker 33: fifteen thousand dollars a pieces, as opposed to a million 1435 01:18:45,360 --> 01:18:50,320 Speaker 33: dollars apiece for a cruise missile, a ballistic missile. It's speculation, 1436 01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:54,760 Speaker 33: it's manipulation. It is and Donald Trump should call him out. 1437 01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:58,360 Speaker 33: He should call him out right now and say listen, Chevron, 1438 01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:03,559 Speaker 33: Shell BP whoever knock it off, because it's clear what's happening. 1439 01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:06,360 Speaker 33: They're playing games, the speculators, the manipulators. 1440 01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:08,760 Speaker 13: And then there's the globalists who just want to knee 1441 01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:10,160 Speaker 13: cap Donald Trump because they hate him. 1442 01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:13,600 Speaker 33: If they can drive up the price of oil artificially 1443 01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:17,080 Speaker 33: or not, they know they impact the midterm elections, including 1444 01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 33: the primaries today in Georgia. I mean, those are things 1445 01:19:20,280 --> 01:19:23,040 Speaker 33: that clearly there are people, I know, it's hard to believe, David, 1446 01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:25,200 Speaker 33: there are people around the world that hate Donald Trump 1447 01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:27,360 Speaker 33: and don't want to see his re ordering of the 1448 01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:30,920 Speaker 33: economic structure like he's done in Venezuela and now Iran 1449 01:19:31,040 --> 01:19:31,840 Speaker 33: and soon Cuba. 1450 01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:33,400 Speaker 13: Cuba's teetering. It's going to fall. 1451 01:19:33,479 --> 01:19:36,599 Speaker 33: We're not a little breath of wind in Cuba's going 1452 01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:39,880 Speaker 33: to tip over the next day or two or a 1453 01:19:39,960 --> 01:19:42,439 Speaker 33: couple of weeks.

The call comes after 1561 01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:57,120 Speaker 8: Trump blasted the United Kingdom for refusing to join the 1562 01:24:57,200 --> 01:25:02,080 Speaker 8: indial strikes on Iran, saying Erica doesn't need allies to 1563 01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:06,760 Speaker 8: join wars after we've already won. The Prime Minister has 1564 01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:10,840 Speaker 8: so far refused to participate in the offensive military action, 1565 01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:15,439 Speaker 8: though Britain has allowed US forces to use British basis 1566 01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:19,720 Speaker 8: for defensive operations in that region. Downing Street says the 1567 01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:22,800 Speaker 8: two leaders discussed the situation in the Middle East and 1568 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:28,680 Speaker 8: ongoing military cooperation, even as tensions between Washington, DC and 1569 01:25:28,800 --> 01:25:33,240 Speaker 8: London remain hi Joining us now with reaction, Former Prime 1570 01:25:33,280 --> 01:25:34,400 Speaker 8: Minister Liz. 1571 01:25:34,280 --> 01:25:37,479 Speaker 2: Trust good morning morning. 1572 01:25:37,880 --> 01:25:41,240 Speaker 8: Tell us your take on how Prime Minister Starmer has 1573 01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:45,120 Speaker 8: been handling the situation and perhaps why he waited so 1574 01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:50,040 Speaker 8: long to join in what other allies might have joined sooner. 1575 01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:55,280 Speaker 36: Well, he's been handling the situation in a very weak way. 1576 01:25:55,880 --> 01:25:58,719 Speaker 36: He is the most unpopular Prime minister in British history. 1577 01:25:59,360 --> 01:26:03,400 Speaker 36: People are not pressed with what's happening. Our ships were 1578 01:26:03,439 --> 01:26:06,400 Speaker 36: not ready to go to the Gulf, which they ought 1579 01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:09,200 Speaker 36: to have been, given that we had plenty of warning 1580 01:26:09,640 --> 01:26:13,160 Speaker 36: of what was happening in Iran. He's dithered over the 1581 01:26:13,240 --> 01:26:17,720 Speaker 36: American's ability to use the Diego Garcia based even though 1582 01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:21,880 Speaker 36: the United States is a key ally of Britain. And 1583 01:26:22,680 --> 01:26:26,639 Speaker 36: he is desperately trying to appease people in Britain who 1584 01:26:26,720 --> 01:26:32,040 Speaker 36: are sympathetic to the Islamists and sympathetic to Iran, and 1585 01:26:32,280 --> 01:26:36,439 Speaker 36: he has been caught between two stools. He has really 1586 01:26:37,120 --> 01:26:42,400 Speaker 36: shane himself to be just incredibly weak and not stood 1587 01:26:42,479 --> 01:26:45,160 Speaker 36: up for what we should be standing up, which is 1588 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:47,080 Speaker 36: backing our American allies. 1589 01:26:48,160 --> 01:26:50,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean to follow up on that. Let's just 1590 01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:54,240 Speaker 4: call it for what it is. Is he afraid of 1591 01:26:54,400 --> 01:26:58,280 Speaker 4: the Muslim backlash in the UK. He called Muslims the 1592 01:26:58,360 --> 01:27:00,839 Speaker 4: face of modern Britain last. 1593 01:27:00,640 --> 01:27:04,519 Speaker 36: Week lose Wow, Well, he is afraid because he has 1594 01:27:04,720 --> 01:27:08,400 Speaker 36: just lost a crucial by election to the Green Party, 1595 01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:13,040 Speaker 36: which is essentially an Islamist communist party. That's who he 1596 01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:16,320 Speaker 36: has lost a by election too. He is worried that 1597 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:19,759 Speaker 36: he is losing the Muslim vote. He's already lost everybody 1598 01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:24,120 Speaker 36: else's vote in Britain, so he is desperately trying to 1599 01:27:24,240 --> 01:27:30,840 Speaker 36: appease them. At the same time he wants wants to 1600 01:27:31,479 --> 01:27:37,799 Speaker 36: appease the European Union. So he has also been sucking 1601 01:27:37,920 --> 01:27:40,880 Speaker 36: up to Macron, He's been sucking up to Chancellor Mertz 1602 01:27:41,479 --> 01:27:45,400 Speaker 36: and he is not showing any sense that he understands 1603 01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:49,800 Speaker 36: what britain strategic priorities are. We are in danger of 1604 01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:55,320 Speaker 36: an attack, another terrorist attack from the Islamists who are 1605 01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:59,439 Speaker 36: funded by the Iranian regime. It is in our interests 1606 01:27:59,439 --> 01:28:03,040 Speaker 36: as well. Iran doesn't get a nuclear weapon. But unfortunately 1607 01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:06,519 Speaker 36: he's not focused on the national interest. He's focusing on 1608 01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:11,599 Speaker 36: appeasing a segment of society that he thinks will count 1609 01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:14,120 Speaker 36: for votes of the next election. And I think that's 1610 01:28:14,160 --> 01:28:16,320 Speaker 36: a disgrace to. 1611 01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:19,040 Speaker 7: Your point, there's no time for weakness, even on the 1612 01:28:19,040 --> 01:28:22,360 Speaker 7: British Isles. An Iranian ambassador in London has said that 1613 01:28:22,439 --> 01:28:26,400 Speaker 7: the United Kingdom needs to be quote very careful about 1614 01:28:26,479 --> 01:28:29,559 Speaker 7: further involvement with the conflict, saying that the Islamist regime 1615 01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:32,400 Speaker 7: would have a right to self defense. If the UK 1616 01:28:32,680 --> 01:28:34,800 Speaker 7: joined in, US's really strikes. 1617 01:28:34,840 --> 01:28:35,639 Speaker 3: In that region. 1618 01:28:36,280 --> 01:28:39,160 Speaker 7: Your take on that, and shouldn't that be a warning 1619 01:28:39,240 --> 01:28:42,479 Speaker 7: sign that Britain and Cure Starmer more specifically need to 1620 01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:44,639 Speaker 7: take a more hardline approach to Iran. 1621 01:28:46,320 --> 01:28:50,400 Speaker 36: Well correct, and we are known by the Iranian regime 1622 01:28:50,520 --> 01:28:54,840 Speaker 36: as little Satan. You know, they are clearly out to 1623 01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:59,840 Speaker 36: destroy Western civilization. Britain is geographically more close to a 1624 01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:03,400 Speaker 36: than the United States is. We will always be a 1625 01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:06,440 Speaker 36: target for this regime, which is why it's so important 1626 01:29:06,920 --> 01:29:09,760 Speaker 36: that we are strong in taking them on. It's why 1627 01:29:09,920 --> 01:29:12,759 Speaker 36: I was very concerned as Foreign Secretary and Prime Minister 1628 01:29:13,320 --> 01:29:16,280 Speaker 36: about the Iran nuclear deal which was going nowhere we 1629 01:29:16,400 --> 01:29:20,400 Speaker 36: saw Biden essentially following the same policy of seeking to 1630 01:29:20,520 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 36: appease Iran. And they can't be appeaced. These are a 1631 01:29:25,040 --> 01:29:30,760 Speaker 36: despotic regime who have Islamist intentions, who are on the 1632 01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:34,080 Speaker 36: verge of getting a nuclear weapon. It doesn't get any 1633 01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:37,479 Speaker 36: worse than that, and that is why Britain should stand strong. 1634 01:29:37,920 --> 01:29:42,400 Speaker 36: I fear we won't under the leadership of Kirstarmer. He 1635 01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:46,559 Speaker 36: is determined to be the last man in the pack. 1636 01:29:46,720 --> 01:29:47,479 Speaker 36: Every time. 1637 01:29:49,840 --> 01:29:52,559 Speaker 8: There's a Liberal Democrat politician calling on the Prime Minister 1638 01:29:52,760 --> 01:29:56,280 Speaker 8: to cancel King Charles the Third's visit to the United 1639 01:29:56,320 --> 01:29:59,040 Speaker 8: States next month. The minarchists scheduled to visit our country 1640 01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:05,320 Speaker 8: to kim commemorate it's two hundred and fiftieth anniversary, but 1641 01:30:05,720 --> 01:30:09,879 Speaker 8: they're seeing America's quote illegal war with Iran is grounds 1642 01:30:10,080 --> 01:30:12,280 Speaker 8: for canceling the visit. 1643 01:30:12,720 --> 01:30:15,960 Speaker 36: What are your thoughts, well, First of all, the king 1644 01:30:16,080 --> 01:30:20,040 Speaker 36: is a constitutional monarch. He does not get involved in politics, 1645 01:30:20,320 --> 01:30:24,799 Speaker 36: and he should visit the United States. It's a key ally. 1646 01:30:24,920 --> 01:30:28,120 Speaker 36: Of course, the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the 1647 01:30:28,200 --> 01:30:31,200 Speaker 36: departure of the United States from Britain is an important 1648 01:30:31,280 --> 01:30:34,759 Speaker 36: moment that he should absolutely visit. But the Liberal Democrat 1649 01:30:34,920 --> 01:30:39,640 Speaker 36: leader is showing exactly the same tendencies as Kirstarmer. The 1650 01:30:39,720 --> 01:30:43,880 Speaker 36: whole concept of international law is deeply flawed. We know that, 1651 01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:47,880 Speaker 36: we know that the UN and courtslight the International Court 1652 01:30:47,920 --> 01:30:51,439 Speaker 36: of Justice are essentially acting at the behest of China, 1653 01:30:52,040 --> 01:30:53,840 Speaker 36: and we need to face up to the fact that 1654 01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:59,400 Speaker 36: we have serious adversaries across the world, China, Iran, Russia 1655 01:30:59,800 --> 01:31:02,760 Speaker 36: working together. We need to take them on. And this 1656 01:31:02,960 --> 01:31:05,880 Speaker 36: is just an excuse. This is an excuse by people 1657 01:31:06,439 --> 01:31:10,120 Speaker 36: who do not want to take on the Islamus and 1658 01:31:10,200 --> 01:31:13,400 Speaker 36: the Liberal Democrats are like an even worse version of 1659 01:31:13,439 --> 01:31:16,200 Speaker 36: the Labor Party, So Frank I wouldn't take anything they 1660 01:31:16,280 --> 01:31:17,080 Speaker 36: say seriously. 1661 01:31:18,600 --> 01:31:21,360 Speaker 1: Liz is a former prime minister. What's your solution here? 1662 01:31:21,479 --> 01:31:22,840 Speaker 1: What needs to be done? 1663 01:31:24,240 --> 01:31:26,840 Speaker 4: How do you kind of if you were there in 1664 01:31:27,080 --> 01:31:30,519 Speaker 4: charge so to speak, what would some of the first 1665 01:31:30,680 --> 01:31:31,720 Speaker 4: order of business. 1666 01:31:31,439 --> 01:31:35,280 Speaker 1: Be there in terms of the Iran war and working 1667 01:31:35,360 --> 01:31:36,040 Speaker 1: with America. 1668 01:31:37,360 --> 01:31:39,799 Speaker 36: Well, first of all, we need to allow the United 1669 01:31:39,840 --> 01:31:43,960 Speaker 36: States to use our bases. We need to rebuild our 1670 01:31:44,080 --> 01:31:47,479 Speaker 36: navy so we've got serviceable ships that can go to 1671 01:31:47,640 --> 01:31:50,960 Speaker 36: the region. And we also need to drill, baby drill. 1672 01:31:51,360 --> 01:31:53,400 Speaker 36: We need to get fracking. We need to use our 1673 01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:56,479 Speaker 36: role and gas reserves so we are a net energy 1674 01:31:56,640 --> 01:31:59,639 Speaker 36: exporter because we have been caught short by this crisis 1675 01:32:00,160 --> 01:32:03,639 Speaker 36: by the high oil prices because of the climate change 1676 01:32:03,760 --> 01:32:07,760 Speaker 36: net zero agenda. So we need to completely change our 1677 01:32:07,880 --> 01:32:11,320 Speaker 36: approach to defense, our approach to oil and gas, and 1678 01:32:11,400 --> 01:32:14,000 Speaker 36: we need to get the British economy growing. The problem 1679 01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:16,880 Speaker 36: we've got, and this is true not just to Britain 1680 01:32:16,960 --> 01:32:20,360 Speaker 36: but also France and Germany, is we've seen huge weakness, 1681 01:32:20,880 --> 01:32:25,439 Speaker 36: economic weakness, energy weakness, and security weakness. And we need 1682 01:32:25,520 --> 01:32:29,920 Speaker 36: to follow President Trump's lead in reviving our oil and 1683 01:32:30,000 --> 01:32:33,560 Speaker 36: gas industry and reviving our economy and spending more on 1684 01:32:33,680 --> 01:32:37,080 Speaker 36: our security that is vital. And this just shows how 1685 01:32:37,240 --> 01:32:41,240 Speaker 36: dangerous a position we're in in Britain. The bomb prices 1686 01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:45,400 Speaker 36: have risen very very fast because international investors are concerned 1687 01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:49,559 Speaker 36: that we simply cannot make our payments because we are 1688 01:32:49,720 --> 01:32:53,080 Speaker 36: so subject to these bikes in the oil price. 1689 01:32:55,479 --> 01:32:58,960 Speaker 7: Liz, I'm curious about your perspective on the current relationship 1690 01:32:59,040 --> 01:33:01,200 Speaker 7: between England and the need the United States. Is it 1691 01:33:01,280 --> 01:33:05,280 Speaker 7: an eroding relationship or is it simply a poor leadership 1692 01:33:05,600 --> 01:33:08,120 Speaker 7: that has this fracture if. 1693 01:33:08,040 --> 01:33:12,479 Speaker 36: You will, Well, the most people in Britain are very 1694 01:33:12,600 --> 01:33:15,880 Speaker 36: pro in the United States, and we know and I 1695 01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:20,320 Speaker 36: know we're celebrating the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary. Of course, 1696 01:33:20,720 --> 01:33:23,599 Speaker 36: many of the great ideas that built the United States, 1697 01:33:24,040 --> 01:33:27,480 Speaker 36: things like the Bill of Rights of Magna Carta, originated 1698 01:33:27,520 --> 01:33:31,120 Speaker 36: on these islands, and we are we have a shared history, 1699 01:33:31,280 --> 01:33:34,479 Speaker 36: we have a shared outlook on the world. The problem 1700 01:33:34,640 --> 01:33:36,800 Speaker 36: is in Britain that we have a very left wing 1701 01:33:36,960 --> 01:33:40,799 Speaker 36: leader in power who believes in mass migration, he believes 1702 01:33:40,880 --> 01:33:45,679 Speaker 36: in international human rights, and he does not share President 1703 01:33:45,760 --> 01:33:51,720 Speaker 36: Trump's agenda, which is about fighting for and saving Western civilization. 1704 01:33:51,800 --> 01:33:55,360 Speaker 36: I mean, Kirstarmer is one of these people that doesn't 1705 01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:58,360 Speaker 36: really like his country very much. You know, he'd rather 1706 01:33:59,160 --> 01:34:03,080 Speaker 36: give rights to do illegal immigrants than to British citizens. 1707 01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:06,400 Speaker 36: So we are under the leadership of somebody who is 1708 01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:09,880 Speaker 36: you know, he's to the left of President Biden. He's 1709 01:34:09,920 --> 01:34:12,840 Speaker 36: a kind of man army for Britain. And what we 1710 01:34:13,040 --> 01:34:16,519 Speaker 36: desperately need is we need new leadership in our country, 1711 01:34:16,960 --> 01:34:20,360 Speaker 36: somebody who is patriotic, who believes in Britain, who believes 1712 01:34:20,400 --> 01:34:26,599 Speaker 36: in Western civilization, and who shares our Anglo American heritage. 1713 01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:29,760 Speaker 36: And frankly, Kirstarmbery is not that person and things are 1714 01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:32,400 Speaker 36: not going to get better until he leaves office. 1715 01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:35,840 Speaker 8: I want to ask you a question of protocol in 1716 01:34:36,680 --> 01:34:40,000 Speaker 8: Great Britain. In the United States, when someone has been 1717 01:34:40,080 --> 01:34:43,600 Speaker 8: a Senator, when someone has been a congressman or a 1718 01:34:43,720 --> 01:34:46,160 Speaker 8: council member or whatever we call them, we title them 1719 01:34:46,280 --> 01:34:48,599 Speaker 8: always for the rest of their lives by their last 1720 01:34:48,760 --> 01:34:51,880 Speaker 8: highest held title. Is that the same in Britain. I 1721 01:34:51,960 --> 01:34:54,040 Speaker 8: want to get that clear before I go to my question. 1722 01:34:54,520 --> 01:34:58,479 Speaker 36: No, it's not at all. No, okay, to lose the title. 1723 01:34:58,680 --> 01:35:02,960 Speaker 36: So oh, the only title I retained is right honorable 1724 01:35:03,000 --> 01:35:04,960 Speaker 36: because I'm a member of the Privy Council. 1725 01:35:05,240 --> 01:35:06,960 Speaker 8: So what I addressed to you is honorable of. 1726 01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:13,400 Speaker 36: The Privy Council, right honorable, right on. But the job 1727 01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:15,439 Speaker 36: title gaze when you don't have the job. 1728 01:35:15,400 --> 01:35:18,559 Speaker 8: Anymore, okay, so we would address you as right honorable. 1729 01:35:20,200 --> 01:35:22,160 Speaker 36: Yeah, so just call me Liz for the person. 1730 01:35:23,479 --> 01:35:26,680 Speaker 8: Just one to be respectful, really quickly, Liz, before we 1731 01:35:26,800 --> 01:35:30,200 Speaker 8: let you go, I want an update on the Epstein 1732 01:35:30,280 --> 01:35:33,320 Speaker 8: files in your perspective. From that, it seems like Great 1733 01:35:33,320 --> 01:35:36,280 Speaker 8: Britain has taken it much more seriously than America. I 1734 01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:39,639 Speaker 8: myself am very frustrated this seems to be completely cast 1735 01:35:39,720 --> 01:35:45,519 Speaker 8: aside in the mainstream media news outlets. What can you 1736 01:35:45,640 --> 01:35:47,840 Speaker 8: tell us about that and what is the perspective of 1737 01:35:47,920 --> 01:35:49,839 Speaker 8: those on the ground who have taken it so seriously 1738 01:35:49,920 --> 01:35:53,000 Speaker 8: in Great Britain when America is rather shoving it off. 1739 01:35:54,840 --> 01:35:58,439 Speaker 36: Well, it is extraordinary that virtually everybody that's been arrested 1740 01:35:58,560 --> 01:36:02,520 Speaker 36: seems to be a brit And we've had Peter Mandelsson 1741 01:36:03,120 --> 01:36:09,360 Speaker 36: Gilaine Maxwell and of course the former Prince Andrew all 1742 01:36:09,680 --> 01:36:14,320 Speaker 36: apprehended about the Epstein files. And you have to understand 1743 01:36:14,360 --> 01:36:18,400 Speaker 36: that Peter Mandelson was at the heart of the labor establishment. 1744 01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:22,519 Speaker 36: He was key to selecting labor members of Parliament. He's 1745 01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:25,920 Speaker 36: very close to Taney Blair, very close to Keir Starmer. 1746 01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:29,000 Speaker 36: So this goes to the heart of the British establishment. 1747 01:36:29,200 --> 01:36:33,080 Speaker 36: And I think there are still questions to answer about 1748 01:36:33,200 --> 01:36:37,320 Speaker 36: who else was involved, how did those networks operate, but 1749 01:36:37,439 --> 01:36:40,080 Speaker 36: also how did they operate in the United States. And 1750 01:36:40,560 --> 01:36:43,560 Speaker 36: I do think it's significant that we've seen people in 1751 01:36:43,680 --> 01:36:47,160 Speaker 36: Britain brought to justice, but we haven't yet seen that 1752 01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:50,400 Speaker 36: happen on any scale in the United States. 1753 01:36:51,640 --> 01:36:53,960 Speaker 8: It is a little shocking for many of us who 1754 01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:56,400 Speaker 8: are just looking at this like it's an alternate reality. 1755 01:36:56,840 --> 01:37:00,320 Speaker 8: Former Prime Minister Liz Truss, we thank you so much 1756 01:37:00,439 --> 01:37:01,000 Speaker 8: for being with that. 1757 01:37:01,080 --> 01:37:03,880 Speaker 1: Thank you, and Liz, just so you know, we'll call 1758 01:37:03,960 --> 01:37:06,080 Speaker 1: you Liz.

And it 1880 01:43:50,960 --> 01:43:54,360 Speaker 4: wasn't even like it wasn't done in animosity towards a teacher. 1881 01:43:54,479 --> 01:43:56,680 Speaker 4: That was kind of like what the school, you know, 1882 01:43:57,160 --> 01:43:59,280 Speaker 4: kind of not I was saying courage, but it was 1883 01:43:59,400 --> 01:44:01,080 Speaker 4: kind of like a a ritual in the school. 1884 01:44:01,320 --> 01:44:03,200 Speaker 3: That's kind of what's the right of passage exactly. 1885 01:44:03,280 --> 01:44:07,639 Speaker 1: It was a right of passage.
