1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,840
Speaker 1: The Team forty seven podcast is brought to you by

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: Cozy Earth.

3
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 2: Comfort, style and quality. You can count on Cozy Earth.

4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: Team forty seven with Clay and Buck starts now.

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 2: Going into the weekend.

6
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: Major news coming from Iran, where early early in the

7
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 1: morning US time on Saturday morning, we began to rain

8
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: down a ton of missiles and an attack on Iran

9
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: alongside of Israel wiping out. According to President Trump, forty

10
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 1: nine top Iranian leaders, including Ayatola Kamani, who had been

11
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: in charge for decades. There that attack happening in the

12
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: daylight hours in Iran on Saturday, stunning much of the

13
00:00:55,160 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: Iranian leadership. Maybe Buck, they should have zoomed, but instead

14
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: they all gathered directly together in the daylight hours, and

15
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,839
Speaker 1: now many of them are gone. President Trump is speaking

16
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: as we are coming on with you live from the

17
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: White House, and I think the primary question is who

18
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: will rule Iran. We will get into that quite a

19
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 1: lot going forward, but let me go ahead and hit

20
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: you with the absolute latest comments from President Trump just

21
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: made in the last few moments in the White House.

22
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: These are cuts thirty one. Let's start with this. This

23
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:43,039
Speaker 1: is cut thirty one. As Trump has just updated the

24
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 1: absolute latest moments knowledge from Iran cut thirty one.

25
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 3: Today, the United States military continues to carry out large

26
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: scale combat operations in Iran to eliminate the grave threats

27
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 3: posed to America by this.

28
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 4: Terrible Turm regime.

29
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 3: Following our obliteration of Orens nuclear program and Operation Midnight

30
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 3: Hammer a short while ago, we warned around not to

31
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 3: make any attempt to rebuild at a different location because

32
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: they weren't able to use the ones that we so

33
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 3: powerfully blew up. But they ignored those warnings and refused

34
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 3: to cease their pursuit of nuclear weapons. In addition, the

35
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:29,239
Speaker 3: regime's conventional ballistic missile program was growing rapidly and dramatically,

36
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 3: and this posed a very clear, colossal threat to America

37
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 3: and our forces stationed overseas. The regime already had missiles

38
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 3: capable of hitting Europe and our bases both local and overseas,

39
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,399
Speaker 3: and would soon have had missiles capable of reaching our

40
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 3: beautiful America. The purpose of this fast growing missile program

41
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 3: was to shield their nuclear weapon development and make it

42
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 3: extraordinarily difficult for anyone to stop them from making these

43
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 3: highly forbidden by US nuclear weapons.

44
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, let me, hit a couple more buck, then

45
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: I'll bring you in get your immediate reaction. CIA was

46
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:11,119
Speaker 1: very involved, according to reports. Thirty two, Trump lays out

47
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: the military objectives in Iran.

48
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 4: Right now, our objectives are clear.

49
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 3: First, we're destroying orends missile capabilities, and you see that

50
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 3: happening on an hourly basis, and their capacity to produce

51
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 3: brand new ones and pretty good ones they make. Second,

52
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 3: we're annihilating their navy. We've knocked out already ten ships

53
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 3: there at the bottom of the c Third, we're ensuring

54
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 3: that the world's number one sponsor of terra can never

55
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 3: obtain a nuclear weapon.

56
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 4: Never going to have a nuclear weapon.

57
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,960
Speaker 3: I said that from the beginning, they're never going to

58
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 3: have a nuclear weapon. They were in the road to

59
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 3: getting one legitimately through a deal that was signed foolishly

60
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 3: by our country. And finally, we're ensuring that the Iranian

61
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 3: regime cannot continue to arm fun and directorist armies outside

62
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 3: of their borders. And we thought we had a deal,

63
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 3: but then they backed out, and they came back, and

64
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 3: we thought we had a deal and they backed out.

65
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 3: I said, you can't deal with these people. Got to

66
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 3: do it the right way.

67
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: Okay, and then last cut thirty three four lost lives

68
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: from US service members. Trump says, we grieve for them

69
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: and gives you a projected timeline of how long this

70
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 1: mission will take.

71
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 3: Today, we agree for the four heroic American service members

72
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 3: who have been killed in action, and send our love

73
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 3: and support to their families in their memory. We continue

74
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 3: this mission with ferocious, unyielding resolve to crush the threat

75
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 3: this terrorist regime poses to the American people, and a.

76
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 4: Threat, indeed it is.

77
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 3: We have the strongest and most powerful, by far military

78
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 3: in the world, and.

79
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 4: We will easily prevail.

80
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 3: We're already substantially ahead of our time projections. But whatever

81
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 3: the time is, it's okay. Whatever it takes, we will

82
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:11,360
Speaker 3: always and we have right from the beginning. We projected

83
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 3: four to five weeks, but we have capability to go

84
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 3: far longer than that.

85
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 4: We'll do it.

86
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 3: Whatever somebody said today, they said, oh, well, the President

87
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 3: wants to do it really quickly. After that, he'll get bored.

88
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 3: I don't get bored. There's nothing boring about this. Do

89
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 3: you agree with that, Pete? I don't think there's anything

90
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 3: mister General, I think there's nothing boring about it.

91
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 4: Somebody actually said from.

92
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 3: The media, I think he'll get bored after about a

93
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 3: week or two.

94
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 4: No, we don't get bored. I never get bored.

95
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 3: I got bored. I wouldn't be standing here right now.

96
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 3: I guarantee you that to go through what I had

97
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:43,119
Speaker 3: to go through.

98
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: Okay, buck big picture takeaways? Did anything surprise you? I

99
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: think the biggest question is who's going to end up

100
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: ruling ran right, That's the trillion dollar question at this point.

101
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 2: Well, the first thing is he finally did it. Remember

102
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: that seen in Jurassic Park where he sees the dinosaurs

103
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 2: Ian Malcolm, the character who is played by Jeff Goldbloom,

104
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: and he goes, he did it. The crazy son of

105
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: a son of a gun did it. That's really the

106
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 2: feeling that so many of us who have been watching

107
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 2: this Iran situation for decades now felt like, and in

108
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 2: the best possible way, enough is enough. Trump knows enough

109
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 2: about the negotiations with anyone. He knows when he is

110
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 2: being screwed around, and he knew fundamentally the Iranians, the

111
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 2: Iranian regime, I should say, and it's very important to

112
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 2: separate these things. America has no hostility toward the Iranian

113
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 2: people per se. In fact, we want much better lives

114
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 2: and freedom for all of them. We despise the molocracy,

115
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 2: which was essentially an Islamic faction that took over this

116
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 2: country in ruined it for fifty some odd years. Okay,

117
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 2: so we've had enough of that. And Trump came in

118
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 2: and said, all the deals the fundamental reality that the

119
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 2: Obama administration refused to see, refuse to understand, which was,

120
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 2: you can't make a deal with these people. Sure, you

121
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 2: can negotiate with some terrorists, you can't negotiate with these terrorists.

122
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 2: They were not going to abide by a deal because

123
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 2: they knew if they got full nuclear capability then their

124
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 2: North Korea, then they get to do whatever garbage they

125
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,119
Speaker 2: want and make the world the worst place in whatever

126
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 2: ways they want for the foreseeable future, for generations to come,

127
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 2: because no one is going to take the risk of

128
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 2: a major strike on a country with crazies running it

129
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 2: with nukes at their disposal. This was the realization that

130
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 2: Trump had, and he tried, and he tried, and he negotiated,

131
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: and he wanted to get a deal. And this is

132
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 2: mister deal made on the global stage saying, guys, you

133
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 2: gotta convince me that you're serious about this one. And

134
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 2: what he realized was there was no deal to be had.

135
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 2: And you know, Clay, how many years has it taken

136
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 2: for everyone to go through this. Oh, we gotta figure

137
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 2: out some they don't want to make a deal, and now

138
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 2: they can't. So that's a good thing. Now it's all

139
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 2: over for them. Now they are with the seventy two virgins,

140
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 2: if that's a thing, and they's somewhere else, and we

141
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 2: have the hope of a better and more prosperous future

142
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 2: for the Iranian people. I mean, there were fireworks here

143
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 2: in South Beach and look, I get it. There's a

144
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 2: large Jewish community where I live. I live in a

145
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 2: mostly Jewish enclave of Miami Beach, and everybody around here

146
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 2: was high fiving and think it was things. It's fantastic.

147
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 2: And there were fireworks going off, Clay, and celebration of

148
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 2: this strike. And I have to say, so far, look

149
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 2: at the people that are involved, Look at people in charge.

150
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: You've got secretary of warheg Sat, you got Trump, you

151
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 2: got into Marco Rubio, a secretary of state. We're not

152
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,719
Speaker 2: doing nation building. This is just we're going to pick

153
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 2: apart the tyranny and encourage better things to happen on

154
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,680
Speaker 2: the ground there. And I think that if that is

155
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,560
Speaker 2: the mission and they are able to pull this off. Clay,

156
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 2: you tweeted this, and I agree with you. Trump is

157
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 2: the most consequential president on track to be the most

158
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 2: consequential president certainly since now I said consequential not best

159
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 2: FDR and maybe going back even further, he may be

160
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,439
Speaker 2: the most consequential president since Lincoln. That's really what we're

161
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 2: heading toward right now, my friends, That's the direction this

162
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 2: is going. If he pulls this all off.

163
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: Look, I tweeted, and I really do think it's been

164
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:52,359
Speaker 1: under discussed. I think the assassination attempts that Trump survived,

165
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 1: I think they changed him in a profound way. And

166
00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: I don't know what his second term would look like

167
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: if those assassination attempts hadn't occurred. And I think you

168
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: also have to plug in the attempts to bankrupt him,

169
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: the attempts to put him in prison for the rest

170
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: of his life. I think Trump is operating in a

171
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: fearless manner, and he is deciding to do things that

172
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: aren't designed to be good. For the next six months,

173
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: they're designed to be good for the next sixty years.

174
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: And I mean, I think you can look across everything

175
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,439
Speaker 1: he's doing, whether it's the ballroom that he is building

176
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: at the White House, whether it is the ceremonial arch

177
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 1: that he is putting in at the White House. Heck,

178
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 1: the Redone Kennedy Center that they are rehabbing right now.

179
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 1: Those are physical manifestations in a small way of the

180
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,319
Speaker 1: larger global perspective that he's embarked upon. I mean, getting

181
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 1: rid of Maduro, getting rid of the Ayatola, basically ending

182
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: communism in Cuba in many ways, which is not being

183
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 1: talked about very much yet, but that entire communist regime

184
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: in Cuba. We are right now living through a modern

185
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 1: Berlin Wall coming down moment. Now Here are the challenges.

186
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: As there are great attempts at excellence, the reach can

187
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: sometimes be unreachable. And that is the danger I think

188
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: that is incumbent right now is he's trying to do

189
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: great things. And for anyone who tries to do great things,

190
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: sometimes when you stretch for greatness, there are flaws that

191
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: emerge in that process. And so I think it's fair

192
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 1: to say it's too early. But Buck if you look

193
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:46,080
Speaker 1: at the June attack in Iran, the takeout of Maduro

194
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: in Venezuela, and the early first couple of days opening

195
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: moves that have gone on in Iran. They have been

196
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: basically flawlessly executed. For lost lives, I wish there were none.

197
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: But if you at told people that all those things

198
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: were going to be happening and the cost to American

199
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 1: life would be for service members, I think everyone would

200
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 1: have said that's impossible. Now I think, unfortunately, the toll

201
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 1: is going to grow. I think for everybody out there,

202
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: you need to be watching around you. We just saw

203
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: the shooting that happened in Austin, Texas. Innocent people lost

204
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: their lives. Crazy people are emboldened by the appears like

205
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: quite clearly a terror attack. I don't think they've officially

206
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: said it, but the guy.

207
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,559
Speaker 2: I'm saying it, I know more about this than the

208
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 2: Austin cops looking at it. It's a terrorist attack.

209
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: Okay, it feels like very clearly a terrorist attack to me,

210
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 1: and so again we'll open up phone lines. We'll react

211
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: to you guys. By the way, it's also the eve

212
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: of the primary in Texas. In addition to that attack,

213
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: that took place in Austin. So there are lots of

214
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 1: news stories out there, but Iran is by far the

215
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: biggest story. I'm I was gleeful. I'm not gonna lie

216
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 1: that we took this step because we've seen so many

217
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: half steps. We saw Obama give the Iranians billions of dollars.

218
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: To your point, Buck, we knew they weren't actually going

219
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: to be honest brokers, and so you're just kicking the

220
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 1: can down down the road if you continue to allow

221
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: this group to be in charge.

222
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 2: All that you had to know about this is the

223
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,559
Speaker 2: people in charge thought. All we have to do is

224
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 2: get to the point of double crossing whoever makes a

225
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 2: deal with us, double cross in the international community, get

226
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 2: the full nuclear package going that we that we want,

227
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 2: and then what are they gonna do about it? That's

228
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 2: the you know, they only had to screw us over once,

229
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,680
Speaker 2: and then we have to deal with this for forever, basically,

230
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 2: wait for some internal collapse of a regime that now

231
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 2: has nukes. Look at how that's going to North Korea.

232
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,839
Speaker 2: You've seen a lot of North Korean opposition these days. Yeah,

233
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 2: it was. Trump has has likely saved us from decades

234
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 2: more of you have. They're saying, these are really bad people,

235
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 2: These are really bad people in Iran that he killed.

236
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 2: And I know that sounds very simplicitic to people who

237
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,959
Speaker 2: think they know a lot about geopolitics. I can speak

238
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,319
Speaker 2: the geopolitics think tank language and lingo with the best

239
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 2: of them. Fundamentally, these are evildoers who had nothing but

240
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 2: bad intentions toward their own people, toward the rest of

241
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 2: the world, and they've been doing it. We let them

242
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 2: get away with nonsense for decades. They have the blood

243
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 2: of Americans on their hands in a whole bunch of

244
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 2: different ways. And it's a tinpot, crappy country right now.

245
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 2: I mean the regime is, it's actually a beautiful country.

246
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 2: And you know, Iran in twenty years could be amazing,

247
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 2: the same way that Cuba in like five years, if

248
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 2: they got rid of the people in charge, could be amazing.

249
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 2: We don't have to live this way. It's a little

250
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 2: bit like the crime thing, Clay. The big revelation is

251
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 2: it actually doesn't have to be like this. And the

252
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 2: big revelation from Trump is you can just do stuff.

253
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 2: You don't have to let the guys just keep getting

254
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 2: away with it. You can actually do stuff when you're America.

255
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 2: So we'll see. Is there a risk, Yeah, of course

256
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 2: there's risk. War with Iran, it is a reality right now.

257
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 2: We have an aerial war against the Iranian regime underway.

258
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 2: A long time in coming, but here it is. And

259
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 2: Secretary of War heg Seth has not been holding back

260
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 2: at all. He is addressing everybody on this. This has

261
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 2: cut one. He's saying, look, we didn't even really start this.

262
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 2: We could argue that, but we didn't start this. But

263
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,520
Speaker 2: President Trump's going to finish it. Play one.

264
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 5: We didn't start this war, but under President Trump, we

265
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 5: are finishing it. Their war on Americans has become our

266
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:45,359
Speaker 5: retribution against their Ayatola and his death cult.

267
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: It took the.

268
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 5: Forty seventh president, a fighter who always puts America first,

269
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 5: to finally draw the line after forty seven years of

270
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 5: Iranian belligerents. He reminded the world, as he has time

271
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 5: and time again, being an American means something unbreakable. If

272
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 5: you kill Americans, if you threaten Americans anywhere on Earth,

273
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 5: we will hunt you down without apology and without hesitation,

274
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 5: and we will kill you.

275
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 2: I think that's a good rule. I think that the

276
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 2: American government should take the opinion that if you kill Americans,

277
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,479
Speaker 2: if you pray in our people, we're going to get you.

278
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 2: Pretty straightforward. You're listening to Team forty seven with Clay

279
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 2: and Buck. We were talking about the plan with regard

280
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 2: to Iran, and I said, defang. It turns out that's

281
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 2: exactly what Secretary of Rubio said. Great minds think alike,

282
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 2: I don't even know about this one. Here is Secretary

283
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 2: of Rubio play it.

284
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 6: From what I've been told by the Department of War,

285
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 6: everything is on or ahead of schedule and proceeding on

286
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 6: these objectives. We have every confidence in the world that

287
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 6: these objectives will be achieved. The last point I would

288
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 6: make is, and I said this yesterday, and I repeat,

289
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 6: what's about your You know you're about to see. You know,

290
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 6: we're going to unleash Chang on these people in the

291
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 6: next few hours and days. You're going to really begin

292
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 6: to perceive a change in the scope and in the

293
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 6: intensity of these attacks. As frankly, the two most powerful

294
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,719
Speaker 6: air forces in the world take apart this terroristic regime

295
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,399
Speaker 6: and defang it and take away its ability to threaten

296
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 6: its neighbors or hide behind a zone of immunity that

297
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:25,120
Speaker 6: allows them to develop their nuclear ambitions. This terroristic, radical

298
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 6: cleric led regime cannot be ever allowed to have nuclear weapons.

299
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 2: We just blew up the Iranian flagship Clay with a torpedo,

300
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 2: the first time the US has taken down a ship

301
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 2: with a torpedo since World War Two.

302
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: I saw that for the military history nerds out there.

303
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: I don't even know how many ships Iran has, but

304
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,880
Speaker 1: I don't like they have a very, very long history

305
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 1: of seafaring left in their future.

306
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 2: Here
