1 00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: It's that time time time, time. 2 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:12,040 Speaker 2: Luck and load. The Michael Verie Show is on the air. 3 00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 3: Pattie O'Brien, expirish assassin, his trademark, A superstitious man. He 4 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 3: leaves a tiny keepsake from his good luck bracelet on 5 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 3: every victim he kills. Scotland Yard would love to get 6 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,239 Speaker 3: their hands on that piece of evidence. 7 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,479 Speaker 1: You think about what the Trump administration has been up to. 8 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 1: So the border is basically closed, We're seeing so few 9 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: people coming over, deportations in earnest and economic policy tariffs. 10 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 2: This guy. 11 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 1: Is doing some pretty amazing things. So here is Steve Whitcoff, 12 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: the US Special Envoy to the Middle East. He was 13 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: on with CNN on some sorry he was on CNN 14 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: with Jake Tapper when he said, we are miles closer 15 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: to ending the war in Ukraine. That war would have 16 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: never ended had there been a second Biden or a 17 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris administration, and the United States would have played 18 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: no part in ending the war. Trump is going to 19 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: will an end to this war, which is good for 20 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 1: the world. 21 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 4: As we understand it, and please correct us if we're wrong. 22 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 4: Putent's demands include one, the complete surrender of Ukrainian forces 23 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 4: in Kursk. That's that Russian region that Ukraine seized. Two 24 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 4: international recognition that Ukrainian territory seized by Russia no longer 25 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 4: belongs to Ukraine. Three limits on Ukraine's ability to mobilize 26 00:01:55,880 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 4: its military and for a halt of Western military aid 27 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 4: to Ukraine, and a ban on foreign peacekeepers such as 28 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 4: French or British soldiers in Ukraine. 29 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 2: Is that accurate? 30 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 4: And if that is accurate, it does sound as though 31 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 4: Putin wants to keep the land that he sees and 32 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 4: then he wants Ukraine to not be able to defend 33 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 4: itself in the future. Is Trump worried that accepting these 34 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 4: conditions might just set the stage for another Russian invasion. 35 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 5: Of Ukraine, Jake, I would not call your description entirely accurate. 36 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 2: Look back before. 37 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 5: This visit, there was another visit, and before that visit, 38 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 5: the two sides were miles apart in where they were. 39 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 5: The two sides are today a lot closer. We had 40 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 5: some really positive results coming out of Saudi Arabia discussions 41 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 5: led by our National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and our 42 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 5: Secretary of State Marco Rubio. I described my conversation with 43 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 5: President Putin as equally positive. So the two sides have 44 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 5: if we've narrowed the differences between them, and now we're 45 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 5: sitting at the table. I was with the president all 46 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 5: day yesterday. I'll be with him today. We're sitting with 47 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 5: him discussing how to narrow it even further. That's how 48 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 5: I would describe it. 49 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 4: Can you tell us where they are right now? The 50 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 4: four points I just outlined might be a meeting or 51 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 4: too old. 52 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 2: Where is Russia right now? 53 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 5: No, I think the four regions are of critical importance here, 54 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 5: and we're in discussions with Ukraine. 55 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 2: We're in discussions with. 56 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 5: All the Stakeholderpean European countries, so that includes France, Britain, Norway, Finland, 57 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 5: the whole, the whole host and we're in discussions with 58 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 5: the Russians too about those regions. We're also in discussions 59 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 5: about all kinds of other elements that would be encompassed 60 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 5: in a ceasefire. 61 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: It's not even two months in. You can hate him 62 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: all you want, and there are people who do, but 63 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: there is no doubt that he is taking action with 64 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: the intention of making the world a more peaceful place. 65 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: There is no doubt about that. Here's Mike Walt's National 66 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: security advisor on Fox News. 67 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 6: I'll take President Trump and dealing with the likes of 68 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 6: she of Kem Jong Un with Putin and others, certainly 69 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 6: ahead of his predecessor. And really, as both President Putin 70 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 6: and Zelensky said on our first call just a few 71 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 6: weeks ago, only President Trump could drive this to an end. 72 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 6: Only President Trump can bring this war to Look, Jackie, 73 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 6: we know who we're dealing with, We know who are 74 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,839 Speaker 6: dealing with on all sides, and we are going to 75 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 6: engage in diplomacy. We are engaging in diplomacy, and that 76 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 6: will involve both carrots and sticks to get both sides 77 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 6: of the table, but to also resolve this in a 78 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 6: way that is permanent and enduring. 79 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: Pete hegg Seth talked about the Pitching Bay Committee here, 80 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: Pete hegg Seth making the point that peace through strength 81 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 1: is back. 82 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 7: Well, it all went down because an era of peace 83 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 7: through strength is back. 84 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 2: Just like in his first term. 85 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 7: President Trump had to deal with the weakness of President 86 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 7: Obama and get rid of ISIS, and he did it 87 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,119 Speaker 7: more quickly than anybody else. 88 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 2: We're sitting on four years of deferred. 89 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 7: Maintenance from Joe Biden, where in particular, when you talk 90 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 7: about the Houthis, they were allowed for over one hundred 91 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 7: times to shoot at US ships, to shoot at commercial shipping. 92 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 7: Four months ago, when we sent a ship through, it 93 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 7: was shot at seventeen times. 94 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 2: Ships haven't been. 95 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 7: Able to go through for over a year without being 96 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 7: shot at. Freedom of navigation is basic, it's a core 97 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 7: national interest, and Trump has said we will restore that 98 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 7: and we will be unrelenting. I'm going to be very clear, 99 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 7: this campaign is about freedom of navigation and restoring deterrence. 100 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 2: The minute the Houthies say we'll. 101 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 7: Stop shooting at your ships, we'll stop shooting at your drones, 102 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 7: this campaign will end. But until then it will be unrelenting. 103 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 7: We got the reports last night, Maria. The Houthi capital 104 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 7: felt like an earthquake, a dozens and dozens of precision 105 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 7: heavy munitions dropping precisely on the targets that we wanted 106 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 7: to hit. Sending a very clear message, and the message 107 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 7: is clear to Iran as well, and the President said 108 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 7: it in his truth. Your support of the Houthis needs 109 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,039 Speaker 7: to end immediately. 110 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 2: We will hold you. 111 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,799 Speaker 7: Accountable as the sponsor of this proxy, and I echo 112 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 7: his statement, we will not be nice about it. This 113 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 7: is not the Biden administration. The message is clear, we 114 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 7: will come after the Houthis until they stop shooting at 115 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 7: our ships, and the Iranians better stay out of it. 116 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: Precisely, what else is President Trump up to? Oh, just 117 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: closing the border here he was talking to Cheryl Atkinson. 118 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 8: We have ninety nine percent improvement from Biden and that 119 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 8: was his better you know, he started around the election 120 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 8: working a little bit harder, and they got a little 121 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 8: bit better. Was horrible still, so we're comparing it to 122 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 8: his best time, comparing it to the worst time. It's like, 123 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 8: it's not even you can't calculate it. How much better? 124 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 8: So we have now the best border we've ever had, 125 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 8: and we did that in a period of five weeks. 126 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 8: Pretty amazing. 127 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 9: Actually, does that imply that we don't need to add 128 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 9: a bunch of money and forces. In fact, maybe you 129 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 9: could draw down or reappoint the force and manpower that's 130 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 9: down there, and we don't need new laws and new money. 131 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 8: Well, you don't need very many new laws, because I 132 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 8: did it without new laws. I did it twice without 133 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 8: new laws. I had the best border ever and now 134 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 8: I think we're going to beat those numbers. Actually think 135 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 8: these numbers might be slightly better, and we're going to 136 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 8: get them better yet. And I said during the speech 137 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 8: on Tuesday night, I said that you didn't need new anything, 138 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 8: you just needed a new president for that. 139 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 2: I said, closed the boom, they closed the border. He 140 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 2: could have done the same thing. 141 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 8: I think he wanted open borders better. 142 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 2: The Michael Varies Show continues to use use no, it's 143 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: just delightful. 144 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: On the show today we've talked about the Sundays, the 145 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: Sunday talkers, the political shows. 146 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 9: And. 147 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: The bureaucrats, the Democrats and the mediocrats are all working 148 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: together along with the school teachers and the professors and 149 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: the Chinese to undercut the Trump administration and the difference 150 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: between Trump too point zero in the first term is 151 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 1: this time we got we got a team of folks, 152 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: a real team of folks that each in their own way, 153 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: are doing what Trump wants done, not serving their own agenda. 154 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: Do I need to remind you who the Secretary of 155 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 1: State was, who was a former excellent president who was 156 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 1: running his own Do I need to remind you about 157 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 1: pomp Mike POMPEII, no, I don't.

Actually, 161 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,119 Speaker 1: let's start with five point ten. The little terror advocate 162 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: graduated from Colombia still hanging around there. Who's the big 163 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: Hamas agitator? 164 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 2: Well, not just a student. We're going to do more. 165 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 10: In fact, every day now we're approving visa revocations, and 166 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 10: if that visa led to a green card, the green 167 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 10: card process as well. 168 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 2: And here's why. It's very simple. 169 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 10: When you apply to enter the United States and you 170 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 10: get a visa, you are a guest and you're coming 171 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 10: as a student, you're coming as a tourist or what 172 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 10: have you. And in it you have to make certain assertations. 173 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 10: And if you tell us when you apply for a visa, 174 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 10: I'm coming to the US to participate in pro Hoomaus events, 175 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 10: that runs counter to the foreign policy interest in the 176 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 10: United States of America. 177 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 2: It's that simple. So you lied, you came. 178 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 10: If you had told us that you were going to 179 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 10: do that, we never would have given you the visa. 180 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 10: Now you're here. Now you do it, So you lied 181 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 10: to us, You're out. It's that simple. 182 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: It's a misrepresentation. If if you've been nominated for a 183 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: cabinet position that's going to require FBI. I'm just going 184 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: to require Senate approval, confirmation, and you lie about a 185 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: material fact when the FBI does their background check, not 186 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: only will you be prevented from serving in the cabinet, 187 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: you could be prosecuted. Ask Henry Quaar. Henry Quaar was 188 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: the mayor of San Antone and he was being nominated 189 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: for Health and Human Services in the Clinton administration. And 190 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: Quaar had a mistress on the side. And when the 191 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: FBI and he answered the question, no, he did not. 192 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: And when the FBI did the investigation, it turned out 193 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: not only was she his mistress, she was basically a 194 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: second wife. This thing had been going on, and it 195 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: was it wasn't real hard to catch him. He had 196 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: quite the reputation as a ladies man. He was prosecuted 197 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: for that. So Rubio, I'm sorry that was not on 198 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: with Margaret Brennan. I got my details wrong. 199 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 9: That was. 200 00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: What's her name, Kristen Welker. Oh, I don't like her. 201 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: On NBC's Meet the Press. This is Rubio with Margaret Brennan. Rubio, 202 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: I can't say it enough. I'm not a Rubio fan boy. 203 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: He's trying to make me one. He's doing a great job. 204 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 2: Listen to this. 205 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 11: I want to ask you about a decision you made 206 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 11: to revoke a student visa for someone at Columbia University 207 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 11: this past week. The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes, 208 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,839 Speaker 11: the administration needs to be careful. It's targeting real promoters 209 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 11: of terrorism, not breaking the great promise of a green 210 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 11: card by deporting anyone with controversial political views. Can you 211 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 11: substantiate any form of material support for terrorism, specifically to 212 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 11: Hamas from this Columbia student or was it simply that 213 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 11: he was espousing a controversial political point of view. 214 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 2: Well, not just the student. We're going to do more. 215 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 10: In fact, every day now we're approving visa revocations. And 216 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 10: if that visa led to a green card, the green 217 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 10: card process as well. 218 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 2: And here's why. It's very simple. 219 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 10: When you apply to enter the United States and you 220 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 10: get a visa, you are a guest and you're coming 221 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 10: as a student, you're coming as a tourist or what 222 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 10: have you, and in it you have to make certain assertations. 223 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 2: And if you tell us when you. 224 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 10: Apply for a visa, I'm coming to the US to 225 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 10: participate in pro Hoomas events that runs counter to the 226 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 10: foreign policy interest in the United States of America. 227 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 2: It's that simple. So you lied, you came. 228 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 10: If you had told us that you were going to 229 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 10: do that, we never would have given you the visa. 230 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 10: Now you're here, Now you do it. You lied to us, 231 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 10: You're out. It's that simple. 232 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 11: But is there any But is there any evidence of 233 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,839 Speaker 11: a link to terrorism or is it just his your 234 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 11: point of view? 235 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 10: Yeah, they take over I mean do you not. I mean 236 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 10: you should watch the news. These guys take over entire buildings. 237 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 10: They vandalized college, they shut down. 238 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 11: I'm asking about this justification for the revocation of his visa. 239 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 11: Was there any evident? 240 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 10: So was the negotiator on it, negotiating on behalf of 241 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,239 Speaker 10: people that took over a campus, that vandalize buildings, negotiating 242 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 10: over what that's a crime in and of itself that 243 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 10: they're involved in, being the negotiator of the spokesperson this, that, 244 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 10: and the other. 245 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 2: We don't want it. 246 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 10: We don't need these people in our country that we 247 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 10: never should have allowed him in the first place if 248 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 10: he had told us, I'm going over there, and I'm 249 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 10: going over there to become the spokesperson and one of 250 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 10: the leaders of a movement that's going to turn one 251 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 10: of your allegedly elite colleges upside down. People can't even 252 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 10: go to school, library buildings being vandalized. 253 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 2: We never would have let him in. We never would 254 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 2: have let him in to begin with. 255 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 10: And now that he's doing it and he's here, he's 256 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 10: going to leave, and so are others, and we're going 257 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 10: to keep doing it. And by the way, I find 258 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 10: it ironic that a lot of these people out there 259 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 10: defending the First Amendment speech alleged free speech rights, of 260 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 10: these Hamas sympathizers, they had no problem, okay, pressuring social 261 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 10: media to censor American political speech. So I think it's 262 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 10: ironic and hypocritical. But the bottom line is this, if 263 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 10: you are in this country to promote Hamas, to promote 264 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 10: terrorist organizations, to participate in vandalism, to participate in accent 265 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 10: rebellion and riots on campus, we never would have let 266 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 10: you in if we had known that. 267 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 11: And now that we not only pro Palestinian people who 268 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 11: are going to have their visas remote provoked or other 269 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 11: points of view as well. 270 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 10: No, I think anybody who's here in favor, but we 271 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 10: want to get rid of trained that I gang members, 272 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 10: they're terrorists too. The President designated them, asked me to designate, 273 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 10: and I did, as a terrorist organization. We want to 274 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,800 Speaker 10: get rid of them as well. We don't want terrorists 275 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 10: in America. I don't know how hard that is to understand. 276 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 2: We want people. 277 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 10: We don't want people in our country. They're going to 278 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 10: be committing crimes and undermining our national security or the 279 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 10: public safety. It's not simple, especially people that are here 280 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 10: as guests. 281 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 2: That is what a visa is. 282 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 10: I don't know what we've gotten it in our head 283 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 10: that a visa is some sort of birthright. 284 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 2: It is not. 285 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 10: It is a visitor into our country, and if you 286 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 10: violate the terms of your visitation, you are going to leave. 287 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: We are a nation divided. There are people in this 288 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: country who have, either by O mission or CO mission, 289 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: made it possible for horrible people to come to this 290 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: country and do great damage to our people and our treasury. 291 00:15:55,040 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: And what you're finally seeing is a movement to change that. Folks. 292 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: Pinch yourself you're not in a dream. But if this 293 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: won't last forever, these are special times. We will look 294 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: back on these as the house in days. Trust me, 295 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: Michael Berry, The Michael Berry Show, Oh yes, it being 296 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: in Saint Patrick's day. My favorite Irish groups Davy Arthur 297 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: and the Furies. Don't email me and say no the Chieftains, no, 298 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: if drop kick Murphy's okay, but do you know anything 299 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: about the Furies? 300 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 6: No? 301 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: I just like the one I already know. Okay, Well 302 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: a lot time. Spend some time with the Furies and 303 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: get back to me, because they're fantastic. Last year, California 304 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: became the first state in the nation to offer healthcare 305 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: to illegal aliens. 306 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 2: Terrible idea. 307 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,439 Speaker 1: Governor Gavin Newsom claimed it would quote only this was 308 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: his word, It would only cost the taxpayer six point 309 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 1: five billion dollars. Well, we know how that always works out. 310 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: In the first year loan, it costs the taxpayer's nine 311 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 1: point five billion dollars, and that number is expected to 312 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:28,040 Speaker 1: grow even larger. Well, guess what happens next. The state's 313 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: Department of Finance is now asking for a billion dollar 314 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 1: emergency loan from the general fund. You see, you have 315 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: to understand that everything in government is a zero sum game. 316 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: Every dollar you spend on X is a dollar you 317 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: don't spend on Why, every dollar you spend is a 318 00:17:54,760 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: dollar you take from taxpayers. Right, So, the day the 319 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: illegal alien shows up, he's paid nothing into the system, 320 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: he starts getting free healthcare. Some of them come here 321 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: illegally for the sole purpose of the free healthcare. I mean, 322 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: it's a good gig. You got free schooling, free healthcare, 323 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: a phone rent, all these goodies, and you're a bad 324 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: person for opposing it. Except you're an adult, so you 325 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: know that what's really happening is money is being taken 326 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: from the core services and being given to illegal aliens. 327 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: The decision is being made. That's why it's called the 328 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 1: Great replacements theory. The great replacement theory says that you, 329 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: the American citizen, are being replaced by illegal aliens because 330 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: they vote the way they're supposed to and their cheap 331 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: labor for the people who want that.

Originally, the state believed the program would need 349 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 13: about six billion dollars, but they now estimate it'll cost 350 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 13: nearly nine point five billion. 351 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 6: This is outrageous. 352 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:18,439 Speaker 1: It is not affordable. 353 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 14: It puts the healthcare coverage for low income citizens in 354 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 14: California at grave risk, and it needs to stop. We 355 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 14: need to take care of our own low income families first, 356 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 14: not provide free healthcare to all the illegal immigrants who 357 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 14: show up. 358 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 13: Republican assembly Member from San Diego carl Do Mayo, echoing 359 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 13: what many Republican lawmakers are feeling. State Senator Roger Nirlow 360 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 13: from Fair Oaks's it's likely other factors like increased drug 361 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 13: costs and more seniors on medical are also contributing to 362 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 13: the budget shortfelt. Still, he says it's unacceptable. 363 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 2: The way that the costs have ballooned. 364 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 7: I believe it's clearly unaffordable, and it comes at the 365 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 7: expense of other budget items that would benefit citizens. 366 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 13: And Governor Newsom recently said on his podcast he still 367 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 13: thinks it makes financial sense to have undocumented immigrants on 368 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 13: the medical plan because if they aren't covered, he says, 369 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 13: they'll still cost the state money. 370 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 2: From emergency room visits. 371 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: New York Post headline, Trump ties for highest approval he's 372 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: ever had, as more Americans say US is on the 373 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,679 Speaker 1: right track than at any time in twenty years of 374 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: this poll. This is the NBC News poll that was 375 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: released Sunday. The same poll that's been conducted for many 376 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: decades now reveals the highest answer to the question being 377 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 1: the US is on the right track. This despite the media, 378 00:21:55,840 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: the Democrats the bureaucrats, the professors, the teachers, all conspiring 379 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: against him, telling you. 380 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 2: It's the end of the world. 381 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: I'll tell you, the single most important thing that Trump 382 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: does is deport illegal aliens and close down the border. 383 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: That's the dirty little secret that Democrats don't want to 384 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: admit is that the public, including a good percentage of Democrats, 385 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: want the illegal aliens deported and they want the border closed. 386 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 2: But they can't admit that. 387 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: They have to keep saying that they're the people of 388 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:42,719 Speaker 1: great mercy and compassion and Republicans are cruel. They have 389 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: to keep telling you because sometimes I think you forget 390 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: how important it is that we have illegal aliens. Otherwise, 391 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: as John McCain said, you pay fifty cents for a 392 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: head of cabbage instead of a nickel, and you don't 393 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: want to pay more for a head of cabbage. I mean, 394 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: you're willing to sacrif Pfeischer kid to a pedophile, getting 395 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: a head on collision by a drunk driver, have your 396 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: job stolen and your house burgled so you can pay 397 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: a little less for cabbage. Right. That's the argument that 398 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,400 Speaker 1: people out of touch, people that don't bear the consequences 399 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: of illegal immigration that's the argument they make. Trump is 400 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: so darned popular because he's tapped into a nerve. He's 401 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: tapped into a wellspring of Republicans and Democrats and independents 402 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: who say, Hey, I might disagree on this or that, 403 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: but I want the illegal aliens gone, and stop telling 404 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: me how good they are for me. Because I got 405 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: hit by one and he didn't have insurance, or my 406 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: wife got hit by one who's a drunk driver, or 407 00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: any number of other problems. You can't go to the 408 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: agency room in Houston and get in to see a doctor, 409 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: even though you're bleeding profusely. You can't get a room. 410 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: You can't get treatment because you've got people out there. 411 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: You've got the entirety of the home depot, parking lot 412 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: waiting in the room, in the waiting room at the hospital. 413 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: These are the costs of illegal immigration, education, welfare, healthcare. 414 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: It's going to bankrupt California and we're not going to 415 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: bail them out. I had Carey believe with the worst 416 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: thing that ever happened to America was slavery. 417 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 2: The Michael Berry Show, and the. 418 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,919 Speaker 1: Best thing that ever happened to slavery was America and 419 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 1: the Republican part Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was on Fox 420 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: News Fox News Sunday with Maria Bartiromo, where he laid 421 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:58,479 Speaker 1: out President Trump's agenda to rebuild America's military. 422 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 7: Ship buildings, the long range munition, hypersonics, long range drones, 423 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 7: Golden Dome, Southern Border. The President has laid up very 424 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 7: clearly his agenda to rebuild the US military. 425 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 2: He did it in his first term. He's going to 426 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 2: do it again. 427 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 7: This eight percent has been highly mischaracterized, Maria. 428 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 2: It's not a cut. 429 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 7: It's a reallocation away from Biden priorities toward Green New 430 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:23,600 Speaker 7: Deal stuff, toward President Trump priorities. So we have revived 431 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 7: the warrior ethos inside the military. We're reestablishing deterrence and 432 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 7: per the President's direction, we're going to rebuild the military. 433 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 7: You're going to see a historic investment in the weapons 434 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 7: and modernization required to stand up to our enemies. 435 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 2: President Trump has committed to that. He's asked me to 436 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 2: be a part of it. 437 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 7: We're going to work with Capitol Hill to do it. 438 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 7: We're going to be fiscally responsible with taxpayer dollars, Mariam. 439 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 7: We're going to pass an audit we're going to work 440 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 7: with DOGE. We're going to find there's plenty of waste 441 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 7: fraud abuse in the DoD and we're going to find it. 442 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 7: At the same time, we're going to reinvest overwhelmingly in 443 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 7: systems and rebuild this military because our kids and grandkids 444 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 7: require and President Trump's. 445 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,959 Speaker 1: Leading the way, not because he wants to get us 446 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: into war, but because he believes in peace through strength. 447 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: I suspect we will have to engage in some military 448 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: activity with the group known as the Huties. They are 449 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: so named because that is the name of their their 450 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: leader they are. The actual name of the organization is 451 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: Ansar Allah. And this organization really came to notice as 452 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 1: part of Yemen's civil war. And what ends up happening 453 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: is this group is a group of Shia. They're known 454 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: as the Zaidi Shia. And you'll remember the reason Iran 455 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 1: and Saudi Arabia hate each other is the Irani Muslims 456 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 1: are what are called Shia Muslims Shia. The Saudi Muslims 457 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 1: are Sunni Muslims. So Saudi Arabia ended up backing the 458 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 1: government of Yemen when this upstart rebel group, the UTIs 459 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:35,919 Speaker 1: in Yemen was getting backing and training and supplemental servicemen 460 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 1: from Iran, and so you have a satellite war going 461 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: on there, much as we did with the Soviet Union 462 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: in Nicaragua. So Yemen became a place where the Yamans 463 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 1: were being We're getting firsthand experience and a lot of 464 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 1: money pouring in, and these Hutis started becoming emboldened. So 465 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: this terror group kind of like the Somali pirates, just 466 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: much better trained, much better equipment, a much better organization. 467 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,239 Speaker 1: The Houtis have come to realize that just like the 468 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: Somali pirates, if we organize this thing, we can make 469 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: a lot of money. Attacking commercial shipping. Well, this commercial 470 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,640 Speaker 1: shipping affects US and the rest of the world. Here 471 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: is Marco Rubio on NBC's Meet the Press with Christen 472 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: Welker talking about how many attacks we're discussing here, this 473 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: is a big deal. 474 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 10: Well, first of all, the problem here is that this 475 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 10: is a very important shipping lane, and in the last 476 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 10: year and a half, last eighteen months to husies have 477 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 10: struck or attacked one hundred and seventy four naval vessels 478 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 10: of the United States, attacking the US Navy directly one 479 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 10: hundred and seventy four times and one hundred and forty 480 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 10: five times they've attacked commercial shipping. So we basically have 481 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 10: a band of pirates, you know, with guided precision anti 482 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 10: ship weaponry and attracting toll system and one of the 483 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 10: most important shipping lanes in the world. That's just not sustainable. 484 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 10: We are not going to have these people controlling which 485 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 10: ships can go through and which ones cannot. And so 486 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 10: your question is how long will this go on? 487 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 2: It will go on. 488 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 10: Until they no longer have the capability. 489 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:14,239 Speaker 2: To do that. 490 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 11: Well, what does US intelligence tell us at this point? 491 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 11: Because the US had been conducting strikes for some time 492 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 11: but has not. 493 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 2: Stopped the Hoho thies. 494 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 11: So what's going to be different right now? Do you 495 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 11: have more fidelity in the intelligence that would make this 496 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 11: more successful? 497 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 10: Well, those strikes were a retaliation strike, so they launched 498 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 10: one missile, we hit the missile launcher, or we sent 499 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 10: something to do. 500 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 2: This is not a message, this is not a one off. 501 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 10: This is an effort to deny them the ability to 502 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 10: continue to constrict and control shipping. 503 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 2: And this is not going to happen. 504 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 10: We're not going to have these guys, these people with 505 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 10: weapons able to tell us where our ships can go, 506 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 10: where the ships of all the world can go. By 507 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 10: the way, it's not just the US we're doing the 508 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 10: world a favor. We're doing the entire world the favor 509 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 10: by getting rid of these guys and their ability to 510 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 10: strike global shipping. That's the mission here, and it will 511 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 10: continue until that's carried out. That never happened before. The 512 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 10: Biden administration didn't do that. All the Biden administration would 513 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 10: do is they would respond to an attack. These guys 514 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 10: would launch one rocket, We'd hit the rocket launcher. 515 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 2: That's it. 516 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 10: This is an effort to take away their ability to 517 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 10: control global shipping in that part of the world. 518 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 2: That's just not going to happen anymore. 519 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 10: And it could be will continue until that's finished. 520 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 2: It could involve ground raids. 521 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 10: Well, those are military decisions to be made, but I've 522 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 10: heard no talk of ground raids. I don't think there's 523 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 10: a necessity for it right now. I can tell you 524 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 10: that as of last night, some of the key people 525 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 10: involved in those missile launches are no longer with us, 526 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 10: and I can tell you that some of the facilities 527 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 10: that they use are no longer existing, and that will continue. Look, 528 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 10: it's bottom line, an easy way to understand it. Okay, 529 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 10: these guys are able to control what ships can go 530 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 10: through there. 531 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 2: They've attacked the US. 532 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 10: Navy one hundred and seventy four times. They've attacked the 533 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 10: United States Navy. We're not going to have people sitting 534 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 10: around with the missiles attacking the US Navy. It's not 535 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 10: going to happen, not under President Trump. 536 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: That's an important caveat, because it did happen under Joe Biden. 537 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: The Irani's attacked, the hutis attacked. You know, I get 538 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 1: emails from a lot of you when your kids sign 539 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 1: up for the military or go in as an officer, 540 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: and I get emails from you, and I got to 541 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: tell you, I always pause for a moment because you're 542 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: always so proud your kid that they're willing to do 543 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: this very mature thing. And I always think to myself, 544 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: does our government honor this kid's service the way I do? 545 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: In a way certainly his parents do. Because when you 546 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 1: don't allow our military to engage and give them the 547 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: tools and the authority to win, you're putting them You're 548 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: putting them in great danger. And I believe that Donald 549 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: Trump is determined that if our men and women are 550 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: used in combat, they're going to have the tools in 551 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: the authority to win. And that is peace through strength. 552 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: See that's how Obama and Biden invited bad men to 553 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: do bad things. Those men fear Trump. So peace through 554 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: strength often means be ready for the fight, and then 555 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 1: you won't have to have it fail to be ready 556 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 1: for the fight and you invite 557 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 3: Its good good, thank you, and good night.
