1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: Look, the Ukrainians have between four and one thousand a million 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: casualties dead and wounded. They're now allowing sixty year olds 3 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: to come into their military. I mean, what is your 4 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: assessment as you've watched MSNBC and CNN frame it all 5 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: throughout the afternoon and seeing the live conduct, I would 6 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,799 Speaker 1: say conduct both at the initial walk up on the 7 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: podium and then in that little room. What is your 8 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 1: assessment of the corporate media here as actually just reporting 9 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: instead of trying to become a participant. 10 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 2: They've done. 11 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 3: They're trying to continue what they've done for the last 12 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 3: four years, being basically spokes the comms department for the 13 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:45,520 Speaker 3: Democrat or the Left Party or the anti Trump faction 14 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 3: in America. They don't want to see a confident Trump, 15 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 3: a strong America. Firs Trump on his red carpet waiting 16 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 3: for the Russian leader to come to him. 17 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 2: They heeded seeing the two of them getting into the beast. 18 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 3: Can you imagine Putin's Trump doesn't speak Russian? 19 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 2: Putin can't. Probably there's no one in there that speaks Russian. 20 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 3: That signals to me, especially when you bring wit Cough 21 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 3: and Rubio into the meeting, that there's going to be 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 3: a deal on the table. At some point, some form 23 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 3: of a deal will come out of this. And the media, 24 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 3: the legacy media and I include Fox and that hate 25 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 3: that idea. They don't want any part of peace between 26 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 3: Russian in Ukraine right now. 27 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: Last thing Eric after the meeting is there's going to 28 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: be a historic joint press conference in Anchorage at the 29 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: Joint Base Elmendorf Richardson with a President Putin and President Trump. 30 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: What is your give us your best guess. How do 31 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: you think that's going to roll out? Given the confrontational 32 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: nature we've seen from most of the corporate media so far, I. 33 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 3: Would say the biggest I would call it a win 34 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 3: if they come out and Trump says, look, we've spoken, 35 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 3: We've hashed out some details. 36 00:01:57,840 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: We will now. 37 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 3: I think the most brilliant move is not inviting Zelensky 38 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 3: because he would have ruined this whole thing. 39 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: He would have just mucked that whole thing up. 40 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 3: Not inviting, But maybe Trump says something like, mister Putin 41 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 3: and I've agreed to speak with the Zelenski and the 42 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 3: Ukrainians to see if we can finalize some of these deals. 43 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 3: I don't know if there's Russian minerals on the table, 44 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 3: or mineral deals on the table. We're taking them from 45 00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 3: Ukraine and we give him to Russia territory. Who knows, 46 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 3: but I think bringing Steve Witcoffin and Marco Rubio tells 47 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 3: me that there is some framework of a deal that 48 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 3: they're gonna Maybe they won't announce it, but they'll at 49 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 3: least tell us that there is some sort of framework 50 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 3: that they will bring in Ukraine and possibly you know, 51 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 3: the EU as well. I'm not sure you need them, 52 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 3: but maybe them as well. So I'm very optimistic on 53 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 3: something being another meeting happening. 54 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: Fantastic, Eric. Where do people get you over the weekend? 55 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: What's your social media handle? I know you're gonna have 56 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: a lot to say, historic weekend at the Moor for 57 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: this trip. Where do people go. 58 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 2: At Eric Bowling? 59 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 3: Just everywhere on YouTube, on x Instagram, Facebook at Eric 60 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 3: Bowling And I'm available to you guys at all times. 61 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 3: Steve manning the war room and just really fortunate we 62 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 3: were able to watch this historic moment together. 63 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: Thank you, brother, appreciate you you. Eric Bowling, Derek Bowley 64 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: show that precedes us with the fast audience. 65 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 4: Thank you. I want to welcome all the. 66 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: Folks in Eric's audience to stick around for the war room. 67 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: Now we've got two of our correspondents there. We've got 68 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: Brian Glenn and Jack Thesoviak. I want to give a 69 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: concise cold open for these two gentlemen, and then. 70 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 5: We're going to go live to Anchorage. 71 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 6: So if you were to paint a picture of what 72 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 6: perfect looks like coming out of Alaska today, what does 73 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 6: that look like in your mind? 74 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 7: Look, it's not for me to negotiate a deal for Ukraine, 75 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 7: but I can certainly set the table to negotiate the deal. 76 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 7: And our next meeting will have President Zelenski and President. 77 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: Putin and probably me. 78 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 7: I'd like to focus on doing our country, but you know, 79 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 7: I get these interruptions. I've solved six wars in six 80 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 7: months when you think about it, and that's from Pakistan 81 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 7: to India. 82 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: That was going to be a terrible one. 83 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 7: Plane's being shot down, that was getting ready to flare, 84 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 7: and then nuclear powers and so many others, and you know, one. 85 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 8: Hundred and twenty three other countries signatories of the International 86 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 8: Criminal Core Convention. This man would be arrested as soon 87 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 8: as he lands here. He's being welcomed for conversation, so 88 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 8: the expectations are pretty high for that gift ready to 89 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 8: Vladimir Putin. I think the participation of not a one 90 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 8: on one now, but a kind of multilateral between the 91 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 8: security chiefs indicates that Donald Trump really wants to see 92 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 8: if there's anything to be had on this critical topic 93 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 8: of a Ukraine peace deal before anything broader conversation occurs, 94 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 8: before a conversation occurs on economic issues. Maybe there's some 95 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 8: tangential issues, maybe some arms control could be discussed, but 96 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 8: by and large, this is a conversation about Ukraine, seeing 97 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 8: if there's anything to be had there. Maybe this conversation 98 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 8: doesn't go forward if there's not some sort of ground 99 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 8: to close there. 100 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 9: If you have press, your word, press, make press, making breast, press, 101 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 9: you rop. 102 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 10: They are both getting into the beast, it appears, so 103 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 10: they're going to be riding together to their meeting. It 104 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 10: is unclear if Vladimir Putin or President Trump could hear 105 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 10: the questions that were shouted out, but one reporter did 106 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 10: ask Vladimir Putin if he would stop killing civilians, and 107 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 10: at that moment you saw him kind of shrug. Again, 108 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 10: we don't know if he heard the question. But boy, 109 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 10: what timing. Concidering that just last night there was a 110 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 10: deadly strike in Ukraine. I believe it it killed and 111 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 10: injured seventeen civilians if I have my numbers correct, so 112 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 10: that killing is still happening. Donald Trump keeps talking about 113 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 10: wanting to end the killing that he claimed its first 114 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 10: and foremost for him. But again, he's welcoming Vladimir Putin 115 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 10: to the United States. I know the US is not 116 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 10: a signatory to the International Criminal Court, but he has 117 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 10: been indicted by the IC. This is not a man 118 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 10: that would be welcomed pretty much anywhere else in the 119 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 10: Western world. 120 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: Correct. 121 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 11: And you know I've organized these meetings before when I 122 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 11: worked for President Obama. This is extraordinary that any president 123 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 11: or prime minister gets into the president. 124 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 10: Has anyone gotten into the beast before? 125 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 11: There is There was one time President of Vieta went 126 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 11: and got Hamburgers with Barack Obama in twenty ten. 127 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 4: I remember that. 128 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 11: But this is very very rare for any leader, any 129 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 11: allied leader, any democratically elected leader, let alone this imperial as. 130 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 10: A former KGB leader. 131 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: And worse, it is worse. 132 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 11: He's the first guy since Hitler to launch a full 133 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 11: scale invasion and occupation in Europe. That is the person 134 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 11: who has been greeted this way that the President just 135 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 11: clapped as he walked up. 136 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 4: And I want to be clear, I. 137 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 11: Support President Trump in trying to end this war. Lots 138 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 11: of my Ukrainian friends applaud him to I support even 139 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 11: engagement with President Putin, even though that's controversial. And look 140 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 11: at that. 141 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 10: Image Loniver Putin's smiling ear to ear, looking almost giddy 142 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 10: inside the presidential limousine. 143 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 11: But I don't support that. 144 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: Just to be clear, this. 145 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 11: Is beyond the call of duty, and I think it 146 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 11: raises mistakes for Trump. If he's doing all this, he 147 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 11: better gets something more than just a future. 148 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 10: Meetings treating him in a friendlier tone than he treats 149 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 10: most of our allies. 150 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 12: Yeah, that's what it seemed like. I mean those images 151 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 12: of him just standing there waiting and then clapping even 152 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 12: before Putin had come up to him, and then the 153 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,719 Speaker 12: haughty handshake. I think the world has just seen two 154 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 12: Americas right now, One America that welcomed a war criminal, 155 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 12: and another America that has a free press in which 156 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 12: journalists stand there and get to ask questions that Putin 157 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 12: never anywhere else he. 158 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 2: Goes Invester Bulton. 159 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 13: You're actually surprised that they are having this kind of a. 160 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 14: Photo op with these aircraft. 161 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, these are very sensitive stealth aircraft. 162 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 4: Everybody on the. 163 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 14: Russian party is a suspected spy. This whole base is 164 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 14: now available to them, at least to some extent. 165 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 2: I don't think it should have been held on the base. 166 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 13: We just had a flyover with a stealth farmer as well. 167 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 15: I mean, it's so embarrassing you're waiting for him to say, 168 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 15: and he looks so nice in his suit.

One of the things that's grabbed the 230 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:07,839 Speaker 1: attention of us monitoring this is the complete unacceptability.

This is not asking questions of what a 237 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 1: free press does. This was throwing invective at a foreign 238 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: leader that President Trump is there trying to make sure 239 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: that not just a ceasefire and not just a peace 240 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: deal in Ukraine to stop the war, but actually the 241 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: beginning of a rock pro chman with Russia. Remember eighty 242 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: years ago today, the Imperial High Command of Japan came 243 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: back and accepted the terms of unconditional surrender. The Emperor 244 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: accepted unconditional surrender, signed that instrument on the I think 245 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,199 Speaker 1: the second of September.

That is just a fact for 250 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: the media to treat President Putin and President Trump like that. 251 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: They do not want peace. What they want is continuation 252 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: of the forever war, and they don't care how many 253 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: Ukrainians get killed in the process.

The only thing 290 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: that has been kind of overwhelming today is obviously the 291 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: warmth between these two leaders, and quite frankly, I think 292 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: the American people and the Russian people remembering what great 293 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: allies they were in the Second World War, the bloody 294 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: conflict of the mid twentieth century. On this day, the 295 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: eightieth commemoration of the surrender of Japan and the ending 296 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: of World War Two. Your observations, the studio people have 297 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 1: been over the top. I mean, it's just it's sickening. 298 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: But even worse is the behavior of the corporatis grundones, 299 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: the in that howling pack of the enemy of the people, sir. 300 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 1: Your observations, Yeah, well, it started with you know, when 301 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: you talked about deportations, they fought that. 302 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 4: You talked about tariff talk, they fought that. 303 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 6: Talked about making DC safe and getting crime off the streets, 304 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 6: they thought that, So why wouldn't you expect that they 305 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 6: wouldn't fight some type of arrangement to get peace between 306 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,160 Speaker 6: these two countries. So they're just going straight in line 307 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 6: of what they've been doing since day one on this administration. 308 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 4: So unfortunately, that's the situation. 309 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 6: I agree with you, it is toxic and it's actually 310 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 6: detrimental to this country. But what President Trump is trying 311 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 6: to do right now is historic, and all these things 312 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 6: that he's been doing in sick story. But to fall 313 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 6: in line and just and push up against everything. Steve, 314 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 6: it's just going that's the playbook right. 315 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: Now, Jack Bisobic, you've been there since early this morning. 316 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 1: Put us in the room, tell us about the air 317 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 1: Force one trip, your observations, what happened, and how do 318 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: you believe this the talks of progressing right now? 319 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 14: Well, Steve, actually, if I could just mention that you 320 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 14: know what you just said there, respond to that. So 321 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 14: I was in that room when the press spray happened, 322 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 14: and that just cut coffee. Any of questions and sounds 323 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 14: really became overwhelming, and you could see that the Russian side, 324 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 14: the Russian delegation is very off put by this because 325 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 14: they're not used to that level of disrespect to a president, 326 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 14: that level of disrespect to a peace process like this, 327 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 14: even me and myself having come up there. You go 328 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 14: into a situation like that, You're standing five feet away 329 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 14: from the President of United States to president of Russia, 330 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 14: the two most powerful people on the planet combined in 331 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 14: one room, and you'd expect to show a little bit 332 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 14: of decorum. Maybe it's my military background from being in 333 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,239 Speaker 14: the Navy, but it would never occur to me to 334 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 14: just start screaming at them, and then Putin as we 335 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 14: were being pushed out, and in fact the security started, 336 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 14: you know, rushing everyone out the room, get out of here, 337 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 14: clear the room. Clearly a line had been crossed. And 338 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 14: I think Putin at one point said something someone was 339 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,239 Speaker 14: telling me. He said enough enough, like in Russian, and 340 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 14: so that really was something that that being said. Though 341 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 14: President Trump turned it into something they could laugh about 342 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 14: because he says, he said, look, you see what I 343 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 14: have to deal. 344 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 2: With another day. 345 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 4: It worked for me. It's another day at the office 346 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 4: for President Trump, right right. 347 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 14: Brian knows bro more than anyone. 348 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: You know, But Brian, the at least the way we 349 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: saw it in this screaming, it was like hectoring. This 350 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,959 Speaker 1: was invective. They were not questions, when are you going 351 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: to stop killing? I mean, this was pure unbridled hatred 352 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:33,719 Speaker 1: is what came through. And then you saw the framing 353 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: device of the studio. And all these experts have been 354 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: wrong on everything. They have the same crowd, you know, 355 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 1: Vinman and McFall, all these losers that have been wrong 356 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 1: on this and actually go toed the Ukrainian people onto 357 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 1: their demise. So it's not questions and that's why I 358 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 1: think it's an insult on American soil for US to 359 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: allow this to happen. They are the enemy the people. 360 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 1: They don't want peace. They want to sit right there 361 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 1: and demonize and demonize Poot. President Trump is trying to 362 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: make in a very difficult situation with quite frankly, the 363 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,719 Speaker 1: Russians winning militarily, and if it wasn't for our money 364 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: and the potential threat of our troops, this thing has 365 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: been over even worse a long time ago. So, Brian, 366 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 1: this is I want to make sure there are understands. 367 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: These were not questions. This was invective that was hurled 368 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,959 Speaker 1: at a world leader at the beginning of a peace conference. 369 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: These people don't want peace. They want to be an 370 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: active participant in stopping peace. Sir. 371 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a great observation. Those are they're just statements. 372 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 6: They're they're they're launching statements and accusations and labeling UH 373 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 6: with with those with those words. And you know what, 374 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 6: You're right, they don't necessarily want peace. But at least 375 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 6: we can all agree that today's press conference, if it 376 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 6: does go to a two person press conference, it could 377 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 6: just be President Trump, who knows I will make it. 378 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 6: But we do know that the questions will be on 379 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 6: topic today. We're not going to get any Gaza questions, 380 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 6: We're not going to get any deporte questions. I don't 381 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 6: think it's all going to be at least on one 382 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 6: topic today, and I think that's one thing we'd all 383 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 6: look forward to. 384 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: Jack put us in the room. Tell us about air 385 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: Force one. What was the trip like you guys, it 386 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: was a pre dawn launch, a long trip, big head winds. 387 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 1: What was it like being on the plane? 388 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 14: Well, Steve, that's exactly right, long trip, you know. But 389 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 14: what's interesting about air Force one is that it can 390 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 14: fly at about forty five thousand feet, so it's ten 391 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 14: thousand feet higher than your typical commercial flight. It also 392 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 14: flies a lot faster, so your air speed is much 393 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 14: much higher, your run, your total time in air is 394 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 14: going to be much shorter than any other trip. 395 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 4: That you're taking. 396 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 14: So we got way up there, extremely cold on the plane. 397 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 16: You know. 398 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 14: So for anyone who thinks that's you know, it's a 399 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 14: cushy ride up there, it was colder on the plane then. 400 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 14: I don't know if Trump turned it down or what, 401 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 14: but it was colder on the plane that it is here. 402 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 14: On the ground right now in Alaska, so maybe he 403 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 14: was just acclimating us. But what's interesting, Steve, is that 404 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 14: the President came back and spoke with us right at 405 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 14: the beginning of the trip. 406 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 4: So once we had. 407 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 14: Taken off, this was not on the schedule, and we'd 408 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 14: been working with the press team with Caroline Levitt and 409 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 14: the incredible team Stephen Chung and all the staff are 410 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 14: here at Bassilor Crowley who's done an incredible job protocol wise, 411 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 14: she was on the trip. And then you have the 412 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 14: various advisors, the secretary's cabinet members that are there as 413 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 14: well a Scott Bessant. But the key, Steve, is that 414 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 14: President Trump came back and he was cautiously optimistic, and 415 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 14: I'll say cautiously optimistic like this because he mentioned a 416 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 14: perhaps twenty five percent chance that the meeting ends early. However, 417 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 14: I would say that it seems that we've gone beyond 418 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 14: that twenty five percent chance, at least as we sit 419 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 14: right now, as we're racking and stacking it. But he 420 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 14: also said we want to cease fire. I don't know 421 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 14: if we'll get a deal today, and so it's certainly 422 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 14: hedging as he went in. But you could tell that 423 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 14: there was a sense of optimism from him. It seemed 424 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 14: as though he knew what he was doing. And of 425 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 14: course he knew that this is a historic accords right here, 426 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 14: the end Anchorage Accords that are taking place. This is 427 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 14: something that he's wanted for a long time, not just 428 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 14: an end to a war, by the way, an overall 429 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 14: a framework, an agreement with Russia. And I was talking 430 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 14: with Steve Ruber about this as well. Look what President 431 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 14: Trump has done. He's working his way through the bricks 432 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 14: nations to get to China, Brazil, India, South Africa, now Russia. 433 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 14: The last letter Briics would be China. So you can 434 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 14: see him working this way to affect a reverse Kissinger, 435 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 14: if you will, to engineer a Sino Soviet split in 436 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 14: our favor. A guest against this ECP. 437 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:40,880 Speaker 1: I want to stay on the top of an Air 438 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: Force one for a second. People don't realize it really 439 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: a military command post. That din has enough space, so 440 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: the president has a small office, there's a small boardroom 441 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: for meetings, and then you've got very cramped seating. But 442 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 1: it's always cold. It's always uncomfortable even for everybody but 443 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: the president. In the president it's a tiny office and 444 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: he's got a cabin up forward if he wants to 445 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 1: catch him sleep, although I don't think i've ever seen 446 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: President Trump use it. Talk to me a minute about that. 447 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: It's essentially a flying command post. It's almost like the 448 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 1: West Wing, which is a old office sitting on top 449 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: of a military command post. Sure, so there's three decks 450 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: to Air Force one. 451 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 14: The highest deck of course, that's your flight deck as 452 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 14: well as a military command center. You've got your intelligence there, 453 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 14: sensitive equipment, so anything that's going on in the world, 454 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 14: anything that could happen, that's all coming in in real time. Obviously, 455 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 14: CIA Director Ratcliffe is with us, so he's directly keeping 456 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 14: an eye on the fact what's rush Is Russia doing 457 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 14: something on the battlefield, he would know that in real time, 458 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 14: given the level of connectivity that Air Force one has. 459 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 14: Then on the second deck, the main deck, that of course, 460 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 14: as you mentioned, the president has his cabin, his quarters. 461 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 14: There's also a small gym by the way. He has 462 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 14: a place where he can sleep, of course, then his office, 463 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 14: plus a full situation room which is an almost identical 464 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,400 Speaker 14: one to one, though a little bit smaller to your point. 465 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 14: Size of the situation room that's in the White House 466 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 14: so effectively, and of course everyone remembers Bush having done 467 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,679 Speaker 14: this on nine to eleven. That plane, because it has 468 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 14: air to air refueling, it can stay in air indefinitely. 469 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 14: If he wants to make an address to the American people, 470 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 14: he can do so because there's a full suite of communications, 471 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 14: two phones on board, one white phone for unclassified calls, 472 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 14: a yellow phone for anything that's classified at a higher level. 473 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 14: He's got full connected tissue. So it's a working plane. 474 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 14: It's a working environment. This is not something where you're 475 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 14: sitting back and relaxing at all. 476 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: We're going to take a short commercial break, Brian Glenn 477 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: when we get back.

I think Wit Coffin and 507 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: Secretary Mark or Ruby are going to be in with 508 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: Lavrov and another member of the Russian delegation with Trump. 509 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 1: Although they just are with Putin, they already spent some 510 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: time together by themselves. In fact, I revere Eric Bowling 511 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: his media savvy, in his sense of people, and just 512 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 1: good old street smarts. He saw the footage as you 513 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 1: saw it live. Brian Glenn of this of the of 514 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: the greeting of President Trump coming down the red carpet 515 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 1: and in greeting a President Putin, he described it as 516 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: President Trump was the alpha male and that Putin was 517 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: the beta male. Your observations, sir, Yeah, I. 518 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 6: Do think one looks more submissive than the other. And 519 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 6: I think you can look at this the physical height 520 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 6: of both these two individuals. One towers over the other, 521 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 6: that has a certain prominence, a certain language to it, 522 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 6: just by itself. 523 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 4: So I would agree with that. 524 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 6: I think this President Trump when he stands, and we've 525 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 6: seen him do this often when he meets leaders out 526 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 6: at the West Wing right there at the stakeout, when 527 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 6: they come down to meet him, he has a very 528 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 6: presence to him. He stands up straight, he's got his 529 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 6: shoulders back, he's got his head high. He's got his 530 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 6: chin up and that is his stance. He has a 531 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 6: very dominant stance. And so Eric Bowling is sparre on 532 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 6: on this and I think, then you just take the 533 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 6: height differential that's there. That speaks volumes as well. 534 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 5: Okay, I think the word of Branglin too. 535 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 1: So I'm now voted two to one so far, Posso, 536 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 1: you're an intelligence officer. I said, hey, doesn't matter about height. 537 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: That I didn't matter about hi Putin's KGB. And I've 538 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: always said, listen our ally, the Russian people, they've been 539 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: horridly led, first by the Bolsheviks, then by the Soviets, 540 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: and now by the KGB. I mean, they're far from 541 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: being free a great, great, great people and great allies, 542 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: but they've gone through and before that the romanov So 543 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: they've had a bad run for I don't know, a 544 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: couple thousand years, Jack Pasovic, your observations. By the way, 545 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: you got a big shout out from Captain Fanel and 546 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: part of the military engine room, who said Poso is 547 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: dead spot on about the bricks, the Chinese comedies party, 548 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: all of it. But tell me about first Putin? Was 549 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 1: he the beta male? 550 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 4: Today? 551 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 14: Well, Steve here's what was really interesting. And I don't 552 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 14: know if the war room engine room has got this, 553 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 14: so maybe asked Denver, one of the grun dudes, to 554 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 14: pull it. I got the video of I'm standing there 555 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 14: on the tarmac as and I can see Putin come down, 556 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 14: President Trump comes down, they meet, they come together. And 557 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 14: I had heard earlier on that this was going to happen, 558 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 14: that all of a sudden, out of nowhere comes screaming 559 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 14: in a B two bomber with F twenty two escort. 560 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 14: So I've got the video and it's it's millions and 561 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 14: millions of views around the world. Now I look up 562 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 14: from that moment, but I think I'm the only person 563 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 14: who actually went back and caught the expression on Putin's 564 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,959 Speaker 14: face and actually saw his reaction to the B two bomber, 565 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 14: and he certainly did a double take. 566 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 4: You know. 567 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 14: I'm sure Russian intelligence being what it is, they obviously 568 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 14: knew the B twos were. 569 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 4: Going to be in the area. 570 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 14: But when you see and feel the sheer force of 571 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 14: one of those bombers, like when we were here on 572 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 14: the War Room on the fourth of July and they 573 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 14: flew over the White House, it's really something that absolutely 574 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 14: takes your breath away. You feel it in your bones, 575 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 14: you feel it in every single part of your body. 576 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 14: And there's no question that that was President Trump. Kind 577 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 14: of we were joking a little earlier. That's President Trump 578 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 14: opening his jacket up and showing him in the handle 579 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 14: of the business end of his revolver, saying, all right, 580 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 14: let's sit down and talk. 581 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 1: I think that's a long gun jack. You had no 582 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 1: inside baseball, but you and I talked about this last night. 583 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: You said, look, knowing Trump, I think because at the 584 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: time you're saying, hey, I think the Russians are coming 585 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 1: in with you know, they're bringing all these different flights. 586 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: Is a ton of Russian I think business executives, other 587 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: types have come in for this are really a huge contingent, 588 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: not just a Russian media, but really a broader and 589 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:32,719 Speaker 1: bigger delegation from Russia. You said, hey, you know, knowing Trump, 590 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 1: I think because you had been to the July fourth. 591 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: You know, we were on the rooftop of the Willet 592 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: Hotel and it rattled everybody's teeth when the B two 593 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: went through went past. You said, you know, I think 594 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 1: he might bring out some of the big armor in 595 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: an air show, a short air show. Did you how 596 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 1: did you guess that? 597 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 14: Well, you know, Steve, it just kind of made sense 598 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 14: from all of the events that we've been going to, 599 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 14: Like you just mentioned that he's been bringing the B 600 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 14: two out more and more and more lately, and so 601 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 14: it just made sense that here he'd come. You're going 602 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 14: to be at an air force base, why not bring 603 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 14: the B two's back again. And also, Steve, part of 604 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 14: it is the history of US air operations here in 605 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 14: Alaska as pertains to the US and Russia. So not 606 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 14: far from where Brian and I are standing right now 607 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,959 Speaker 14: on this very base. If you go to the cemetery, 608 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 14: there's actually a plot here where there's Russian pilots from 609 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 14: World War II who are a buried. How is that possible, Well, 610 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 14: it's because in the len Lease program, because they couldn't 611 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 14: fly the planes across Europe that's where World War Two 612 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 14: was taking place, they would go round the back door 613 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,959 Speaker 14: across the Bearing Strait. They would have Russian pilot crews 614 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 14: fly into Alaska, then take custody of the American planes 615 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 14: that were flown up here from the lower forty eight 616 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 14: and then pilot goes back to Russia across Siberia, given 617 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:58,959 Speaker 14: the conditions, worries about Japanese navy incursions. There were a 618 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 14: lot of death in this program, and so this is 619 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 14: something that Russian diplomats have brought up a number of times. 620 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 14: And so I've really been thinking a lot about how 621 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 14: that lend lease program, the World War Two partnership between 622 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 14: the United States and Russia really was forged right here 623 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 14: in Alaska. 624 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: We were the Arsenal democracy, and I remember great towns 625 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 1: like Detroit, Wichita, Kansas, all the way across Rosie the Riveter. 626 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: The entire nation turned out to make sure that we 627 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: could supply enough material not just for the Americans and 628 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: the British, but also for the Russian and the Chinese. 629 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 1: Brian Glenn, You've had an opportunity, I think, unlike virtually anybody, 630 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: you've been in the ovault now for dozens and dozens 631 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: of meetings with world leaders from President Trump's trying to 632 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: put together deals, trying to put together relationships, strategic partnerships. 633 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: What do you think, how should we think about what's 634 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 1: going on in the room right now? You know him 635 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: up close and personal, and you've seen with world leaders, 636 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: of course putin being a KGB colonel is a different 637 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: it's kind of his jibs a little different than some 638 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 1: of the folks you've seen. But you've seen President Trump 639 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 1: and the way he rolls. What do you think is 640 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: going on right now? 641 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 6: I think he's playing all his cards. I mean, to 642 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 6: use one of his terms. I mean, I really think 643 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,720 Speaker 6: he is. I think he's calling him out for the bs. 644 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 6: He's calling out his failures in the past. He's calling 645 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 6: out the times that he might have promised something but 646 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 6: did the opposite. I don't think President Trump at all 647 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,799 Speaker 6: is playing games with with Putin. And he's made it 648 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 6: perfectly clear if this does not work out and it 649 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 6: goes south, he's done. He's done with this, and so 650 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 6: he's gonna look him in the eye, just like I 651 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 6: saw him look the South African president in the eye 652 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 6: and he told him exactly what it was. He said, oh, 653 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 6: there was no, we're not we're not killing white farmers. 654 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,320 Speaker 6: And actually, as I roll the videotape and and showed 655 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 6: it low of the lights, showed it right in front 656 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 6: of him. I think he's doing that right now. I 657 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 6: think he's absolutely being very transparent. It's not it is 658 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,760 Speaker 6: personal to him. The fact that he wants to save lives, 659 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 6: but he's he's willing to say it. If it's on 660 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 6: his mind, he's gonna say it. He's not going to 661 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 6: hold back. And then of course doing the press conference, 662 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 6: he's gonna do the same. I mean, whatever we didn't 663 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 6: hear in that bilateral meeting, we're going to hear it 664 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:09,720 Speaker 6: during the press conference. 665 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: So Jack, if you hear that, it's kind of refreshing, 666 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: because if you listen to the corporate media all day 667 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 1: long and Bolton and Vinman and all these guys, they 668 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: bring all the losers from the past they bring up, 669 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 1: they're saying the exact opposite that just even having it 670 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 1: in the United States is a huge defeat for Trump, 671 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,879 Speaker 1: and it shows he's submissive and that, you know, all 672 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: this has been a huge victory so far for Putin. 673 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 1: And you could tell walk on the plane, Putin had 674 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: the chesster cat smile that that Trump is a submissive 675 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 1: one here. He's already given up so much. The most 676 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: he can hope for is maybe another meeting. Give me 677 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 1: your assessment, drafting off Brian of where do you think 678 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 1: we are in starting this and where do you think 679 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: we're going today? 680 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 14: Well, Steve, I do think that President Trump is not 681 00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 14: coming into this with rose colored glasses. He talked about 682 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 14: just when we were on the plane with him this 683 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 14: morning at eight in the morning, when he came back 684 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 14: with that gaggle, the first thing he talked about was 685 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 14: the killing. And you and I both know that even 686 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:14,919 Speaker 14: during the transition team, he would come in to these 687 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 14: meetings and he would talk about after receiving the intelligence 688 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 14: reports of the deaths on both sides, Russian and Ukrainian, 689 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 14: and how this really weighed on him with something he 690 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 14: took very personally that he really and truly wants to 691 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 14: stop this war and wishes that it had never happened, 692 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 14: a war on the European continent. But when it comes 693 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 14: to this idea that he's just going to capitulate, Look, 694 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 14: there's no way that President Trump's going to walk out 695 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,319 Speaker 14: of any deal looking like he capitulated. 696 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 4: It's just not in his nature. 697 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 14: It's not anything he's ever done before, and he would 698 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 14: easily be the first person to walk away if it 699 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 14: looked like a bad deal. But what I would say 700 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 14: to the Vinmins and to the Michael mcfowl's and the 701 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 14: John Boltons and all the rest look, Steve, what you're 702 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 14: seeing here is, if I can borrow a phrase, the 703 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 14: primal scream of a dying regime. Because the core focus 704 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 14: point of the power of the Atlanticist axis, the globalist 705 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 14: Atlanticist axis, is of course pitting America and Russia against 706 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 14: each other and trying to foment a war between them. 707 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 14: This is where they brought in censorship. This is where 708 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 14: they brought in Russia Gate. This is where they brought 709 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 14: in the first impeachment, which, oh, by the way, that 710 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:27,400 Speaker 14: was who Adam Schiff and Eric Vinman yet again, and 711 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,399 Speaker 14: so we see these same forces over and over and 712 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 14: over and. 713 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 4: What did it lead us to? 714 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:38,839 Speaker 14: It led us to Victoria Newlans bloodshed, Victorian Newlans quagmire. 715 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 14: They're in Ukraine right now, the Miidan Revolution, to all 716 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 14: of this that's come down to. So this has absolutely 717 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,760 Speaker 14: been something that this small group of powerful people, Steve, 718 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 14: the Atlanticists, these neoliberals, and the neocons have put together 719 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 14: because they don't care about starting World War three. That 720 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 14: means high ratings, that means money for them, eulitary industrial complex, 721 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 14: and that means demonization of a nation, which, by the way, 722 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 14: is again the other most powerful nation in the world. 723 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 4: These are the two most powerful. 724 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 14: Men on the planet right now, sitting down, and I 725 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 14: think that for all of our sakes, it's as President 726 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 14: Trump has always said, it makes a lot of sense 727 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 14: for them to have a good relationship. 728 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 1: Brian Glenn, You've been so close to the President and 729 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: covering this in the White House and Nawle of all 730 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 1: office over the last six months or so. Give us 731 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 1: the thing about Trump, the man and his humanity. I mean, 732 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 1: every time I'm around here and talk to him, the 733 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 1: first thing he brings up is the killing in Ukraine, 734 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: the bloodshed in Ukraine, how the terrain of Ukraine being 735 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 1: so flat that the bullets are stopped by human bodies. 736 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 1: I mean, when he talks about the casualty rates, he 737 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 1: does it very personally. Your your thoughts, sir. 738 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 6: No, absolutely, he does that all the time. Always leads 739 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 6: with the killing. He does not about money that the 740 00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 6: military might be selling weapons to NATO. 741 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:00,080 Speaker 4: He doesn't care about that. 742 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 6: He cares about the people, and even mentions there's no 743 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 6: Americans involved in this. And then this killing, this is 744 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 6: just Russians, and this is Ukraine, and there are may 745 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 6: be a few others in there, but we're not talking 746 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 6: about saving American lives. We're talking about saving humans. And 747 00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,280 Speaker 6: that's what he cares about the most. But I'll extend 748 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 6: that over to this as well, Steve. Anybody that's affected 749 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 6: by a flood or hurricane, a fire, a natural disaster, 750 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 6: he cares about people. He cares about the displacement of people, 751 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 6: people that are suffering, people that have gone through some 752 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:31,720 Speaker 6: rough times. He cares about victims, people, victims of assault, 753 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 6: violent crimes on the city streets of America. 754 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 4: That's what he cares about. 755 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 6: But people seem to pit this thing that he only 756 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 6: cares about the elites, the elites in business in Wall Street, 757 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 6: and no he doesn't. He cares about the American people. 758 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 6: He cares about humans in general. And that's why he's here. 759 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 6: He doesn't need to be doing this. 760 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 4: Where where's any other world leader right now? 761 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 6: They're not here in Alaska trying to get a piece 762 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,920 Speaker 6: deal Trump is. That's what Trump cares about. He cares 763 00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:00,440 Speaker 6: about people, and hopefully today we can make pro agress 764 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,280 Speaker 6: to that. I don't think any of us are gonna 765 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 6: think this is gonna happen today. 766 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 4: Could be I'm not gonna roll that off the table. 767 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 6: But Steve, he cares about people, and we see it 768 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 6: every single day. I'll give you another quick example if 769 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 6: I could. When he leaves on the South Lawn on 770 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 6: his departures on Marine One. He often will walk out, 771 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,280 Speaker 6: go through the press line, answer a bunch of questions. 772 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 6: But then if there's anybody on the other side that 773 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 6: might be interns, staff, people that are just toying the 774 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,239 Speaker 6: White House, he will go down the line and talk 775 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 6: to every single person. It'll be ten fifteen minutes. He's 776 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,920 Speaker 6: going down taking himself. He's a talking to people. That 777 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 6: means he cares about people. He's not doing it just 778 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 6: for clicks or for shows. He cares about the American people, 779 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:42,439 Speaker 6: and you see it every day. 780 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: Guys, hang on for one second. We're gonna take a 781 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:50,240 Speaker 1: short commercial bike break. We're gonna turn to Anchorage, Alaska. 782 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 1: We also have clear Pascal here to help remind us 783 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: of the sacrifice of the American military eighty years ago. 784 00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 13: Today, day of days what America Allies crowds before the 785 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 13: White House await the announcement from the President that the 786 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 13: Chafts have surrendered unconditionally. 787 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 16: I have received this afternoon a message from the Japanese 788 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 16: government in reply to the message forwarded to that government 789 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 16: by the Secretary of State on August eleventh.

From a naval perspective, it's the islands of 824 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 18: the Pacific, and over one hundred thousand Americans died getting 825 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 18: across the Pacific. Japan had held a part of the 826 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 18: Central Pacific the size of the continental United States for 827 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:50,359 Speaker 18: thirty years, had thirty years to in place to build defenses, 828 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 18: to scout out the absolute best positions for sniping off 829 00:43:55,680 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 18: people as they came ashore. And those Americans that did that, 830 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 18: that breached the reefs for the first time with the 831 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:07,400 Speaker 18: amtraks and places like Tarowa and making and then moving 832 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 18: along the chain, were men of incredible courage but also compassion. 833 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:18,240 Speaker 18: They encountered civilian populations along the way, places like Saipan. 834 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,879 Speaker 18: When they got to Saipan, that civilian population had lived 835 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,320 Speaker 18: under the Japanese for thirty years. They didn't speak English, 836 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 18: but they were dealt with by the Americans with incredible 837 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 18: compassion and warmth. They're wounded, were treated along with the 838 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 18: Americans and the Japanese wounded. And we are still bringing 839 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 18: Americans home from the Pacific. Organizations like History Flight are 840 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 18: in Taroa now trying to find the Marines that are 841 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 18: still there to bring them home. It's not just the 842 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 18: Marie the relics of the war that you see on 843 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:56,879 Speaker 18: the beaches, the Zeros that are in the forest and in 844 00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 18: the lagoons. When I was reporting few from Yap where 845 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 18: the Chinese are rebuilding that Imperial Japanese runway, you could 846 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,720 Speaker 18: still see the equipment that the Japanese used to build 847 00:45:07,719 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 18: that runway. In the first place. But there are also 848 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 18: still Americans left there in the ground that are slowly 849 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 18: but being brought home with incredible persistence by Americans who 850 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 18: care and who remember. So this is a part of 851 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 18: the world where the blood of Americans and allies are 852 00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 18: soaked into the beaches. And as a result of that war, CNMI, Saipan, 853 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 18: Tinian became part of the United States, and that whole 854 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 18: core the Central Pacific which was under the Japanese mandate 855 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 18: became independent countries but then voted to join the US 856 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 18: in a compactor free association for defense and security reasons. 857 00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:56,319 Speaker 18: So this is the peace that was bought by the 858 00:45:56,360 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 18: lives of those Americans and the ones who survived and 859 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,160 Speaker 18: then came home and just picked up tools and went 860 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 18: back to work and got on with building America. After 861 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:13,280 Speaker 18: they had saved the Pacific is still very much remembered 862 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:16,839 Speaker 18: and still a core part of the gift that they 863 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:18,840 Speaker 18: gave to the US in terms of peace in the 864 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:22,320 Speaker 18: Pacific that has lasted now for eighty years. 865 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 1: Cleo, hang on, I'm going to take him to the 866 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 1: second hour. John Solomon, Amanda Head join us. John. The 867 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 1: symbolism of having this historic meeting today in Alaska on 868 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 1: the eightieth anniversary of the end of World War II. 869 00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 1: Your thoughts, sir, Well. 870 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,719 Speaker 17: It's powerful for many reasons, and the flyover as the 871 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,839 Speaker 17: summit was beginning was a reminder that American military might 872 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:47,360 Speaker 17: is still the most powerful force in the world. But 873 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:50,320 Speaker 17: for me, the more greater symbolism is the difference between 874 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 17: the last time we had a summit in Alaska and 875 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,720 Speaker 17: now in March or twenty one, we had Joe Biden 876 00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 17: get steamrolled by China. I mean, an utter embarrassment of 877 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 17: American superior superiority. 878 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:01,960 Speaker 2: On the world stage. 879 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 17: The Chinese laughed in our face, ridiculed us. We were 880 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 17: wearing masks. What a difference this summit is. It's on 881 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,520 Speaker 17: Donald Trump's terms, on Donald Trump's turf, and it's Vladimir 882 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 17: Putin who needs Donald Trump in America more than Donald 883 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 17: Trump needs in the idea that America's reasserted itself on 884 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,280 Speaker 17: the world stage. I think it's even more remarkable compared 885 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:24,239 Speaker 17: to the last time we had a major summit on 886 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 17: Alaskan soil. 887 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 5: God, I remember that, John's so great to you bring 888 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:30,359 Speaker 5: that up. 889 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 1: The Japanese, the Chinese Commanis party sat there in front 890 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 1: of the world and accused us of everything and blinking, 891 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,399 Speaker 1: and these guys just accepted it. You could tell right then, 892 00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 1: not quite off on the right foot. That was not today. 893 00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: President Trump shows up. Okay, we're gonna take a short 894 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 1: commercial break. We've got John Solomon, Amanda Head, Cleo Pascal 895 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 1: in anchorage. We have Jack Posobic and Brian Glenn. We're 896 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 1: gonna take a short commercial break. We're gonna leave you 897 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,400 Speaker 1: with the Right Stuff. I don't think it be a 898 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:04,360 Speaker 1: better way to end the first hour. The height of 899 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 1: American power in the early nineteen sixties, the Test Pilot 900 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 1: Program and then the Mercury Astronauts. The Right Stuff off 901 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 1: a book by Tom Wolfe, a classic movie by Philip Kaufman, 902 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 1: an Academy Award winning score by Bill Conti. 903 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 5: The Right Stuff. 904 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna take a short commercial break on Real America's voice. 905 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 1: We're going to continue just a moment.
