Speaker 1: Hey, there's folks. It is Saturday, February twenty eighth, and
Speaker 1: while you were sleeping, your country went to war with that.
Speaker 1: Welcome through this Saturday, February twenty eighth, Amy and TJ.
Speaker 1: And Robes. This is a morning now. We are waking
Speaker 1: up a lot of people are just finding this out,
Speaker 1: including members of Congress. That Operation Epic Fury is underway.
Speaker 1: The US has attacked Iran, and Robes. This is different
Speaker 1: from last time.
Speaker 2: Yes, and we had been hearing about the threats of this.
Speaker 2: I don't know that any of us were anticipating waking
Speaker 2: up this morning to that news. Certainly, I can speak
Speaker 2: for myself saying I wasn't I had I even popped
Speaker 2: up and you said, babe, were at war. That's a
Speaker 2: fairly ominous thing to hear on a Saturday morning after
Speaker 2: just the last couple of months.
Speaker 3: And yet according to President Trump, necessary.
Speaker 1: It's necessary. It's what he says. But this is a
Speaker 1: much different justification than we've heard in the past. Now, folks,
Speaker 1: we are hopping on here, yes on a Saturday morning,
Speaker 1: because just wanted to give you a quick update. There's
Speaker 1: going to be news coverage. You're going to see all
Speaker 1: day long. But we just want to get you caught
Speaker 1: up on what happened overnight. And as we're recording this, Robes,
Speaker 1: this has only been going on for the past five
Speaker 1: or six hours. That in fact, the US began a
Speaker 1: major military operation against Iran overnight in coordination with Israel.
Speaker 1: And while as we are recording, Robes and the President
Speaker 1: used the word war, we're at war. And right now,
Speaker 1: missiles are flying all over the Middle East. Missiles are
Speaker 1: flying into and out of Iran. We are getting reports
Speaker 1: early of some of the first reports of deaths associated
Speaker 1: and the President is also warning us Robes that there
Speaker 1: could be American deaths and casualties as a part of this.
Speaker 1: This sounds like not just a quick, one and done
Speaker 1: hit type of thing. It sounds like he's preparing us
Speaker 1: for a more protracted and a wider ranging, if you will,
Speaker 1: conflict in that twelve day war we had last summer.
Speaker 2: Wow, stomach was in knots just hearing you describe all
Speaker 2: of that. And the President has been warning people in
Speaker 2: Iran that bombs will be dropping everywhere and that when
Speaker 2: the dust settles, he said, Iranians should then overtake their government. Now,
Speaker 2: as you might imagine you just pointed out Iran is
Speaker 2: retaliating launching missiles at Israel where air raids sirens have
Speaker 2: been going off. Look, I can't imagine what the Israelis
Speaker 2: have been through just over the past several years, and
Speaker 2: now to be at war with Iran and having incoming
Speaker 2: missiles from that part of the world.
Speaker 1: It's crazy to think they're used to this as almost
Speaker 1: a way of life. To a certain degree. They know
Speaker 1: what to do. Here come the sirens. We know where
Speaker 1: to go, we know what to do. And explosions are
Speaker 1: being heard in Israel, and they will tell you most
Speaker 1: of those are familiar. We know those sounds of the
Speaker 1: interceptor system knocking down so many of the missiles and
Speaker 1: drones that have been sent their way. This is where
Speaker 1: we are, folks. And you said it, Robes, don't anybody anticipating, No,
Speaker 1: it's yes. He's been talking about it. If he's talking
Speaker 1: about it for weeks, is it ever going to happen?
Speaker 1: He's gonna make a decision. I guess we should have
Speaker 1: all been on standby. This could happen at any time.
Speaker 1: But Robes, to wake up. Here we go again on
Speaker 1: a Saturday morning. People are waking up in this country,
Speaker 1: dealing with weather, with travel, with Epstein, with everything that's
Speaker 1: been coming at us, and you wake up and go,
Speaker 1: wait what, We're at war? And that's and robes a
Speaker 1: lot of people, including members of Congress. You're gonna wake
Speaker 1: up on a Saturday, folks like wait, what.
Speaker 3: That is wild to think about? And the big question
Speaker 3: is why?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 3: And why now?
Speaker 2: President Trump is saying that it is because Iran has
Speaker 2: refused to make a deal regarding its nuclear ambitions, and
Speaker 2: so he's you know, yes, he's been warning Iran publicly
Speaker 2: for weeks, and he warn of US involvement if protesters
Speaker 2: weren't killed. We remember that as well, and then protesters
Speaker 2: were killed, and he didn't follow through. He actually backed down,
Speaker 2: even when he said he felt like Iran was backing
Speaker 2: down from killing protesters. So it seemed like that situation
Speaker 2: was diffused. And then yes, all of a sudden, we
Speaker 2: wake up this morning and Trump has decided to, along
Speaker 2: with Israel, attack Iran.
Speaker 1: And he did let everyone know that. He put out
Speaker 1: at two thirty am Eastern time, an eight minute long
Speaker 1: video in which he was making a I guess it's
Speaker 1: a mini speech. It went eight minutes, but He did
Speaker 1: not go off of his prepared remarks really as we're
Speaker 1: used to the presidencying announcing that this was going on,
Speaker 1: and the justification for it, which we should mention Robes,
Speaker 1: is a much different justification and a much different objective.
Speaker 1: Last time it was about just shutting down nuclear ambition.
Speaker 1: He has flat outset regime change is what's wanted through
Speaker 1: this one, and he the onus on the Iranians. They say, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're doing this for you, Now take your government. He
Speaker 1: is flat out saying this is a move to change
Speaker 1: the regime in Iran. That, dear lady, is going to
Speaker 1: be a big deal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because once you take out a government sometimes it's
Speaker 2: part of your responsibility to then build.
Speaker 3: The new government back up.
Speaker 2: But you're hearing Trump and the speech, and we'll get
Speaker 2: into the exact wording that he used. Yes, say we're
Speaker 2: doing this for you. You've been asking us for years.
Speaker 2: Now I'm the president who's actually going.
Speaker 3: To do it for you.
Speaker 2: But you have to be ready to step in, pick
Speaker 2: up the pieces and rebuild your own country.
Speaker 3: That has never really ever happened before.
Speaker 2: When a country is in shambles, typically it needs that nation,
Speaker 2: especially the one who broke it down to help build
Speaker 2: it back up.
Speaker 3: And we've always said as.
Speaker 2: A country, we're not into nation building, but we're certainly
Speaker 2: into regime change.
Speaker 1: Apparently, Yeah, we're just getting Venezuela squared away right now
Speaker 1: and now here. I swear rose when this I first
Speaker 1: saw this, I thought, no, this is not what's happening.
Speaker 1: We don't think at least I said, wow, is Ayatola?
Speaker 1: How many gonna be over in Brooklyn at the MBC
Speaker 1: with Madua here in the next war crimes. Yes, this
Speaker 1: is not the suggestion at all, and they are absolutely
Speaker 1: telling will not be any boots on the ground related
Speaker 1: to this operation. But the question starts to get asked
Speaker 1: by the security exports robes, how are you going to
Speaker 1: change regime? How are you gonna do this without having
Speaker 1: military on the ground. You can't just do air strikes
Speaker 1: and think everything's gonna be okay. You got to get
Speaker 1: in there, and they're saying we're not going to get
Speaker 1: in there. So let's go with what the president did
Speaker 1: lay out roads, which is much different than what he
Speaker 1: laid out before. But this was a video he posted
Speaker 1: two thirty in the morning. Uh, he's standing there by
Speaker 1: himself no tie, blue suit, white shirt, and with a
Speaker 1: bright brand new white USA had on um and delivering
Speaker 1: this nobody else around him. He stayed to his remarks
Speaker 1: in this prepared speech. I didn't see him ad live
Speaker 1: much at all.
Speaker 3: No, No, he stuck to his notes.
Speaker 2: And it was a little bit of a It felt
Speaker 2: like a little bit of an ominous setting. Seemed like
Speaker 2: he was all alone on this stage. It was podium
Speaker 2: with a darker background. Yes it was. It definitely felt ominous,
Speaker 2: and it was pre taped. I don't think it was
Speaker 2: at two thirty in the morning that he put this
Speaker 2: out here, But so what an interesting time to release
Speaker 2: this video it was.
Speaker 1: I think he released it the operations start at maybe
Speaker 1: an hour hour and a half before they're saying. But yeah,
Speaker 1: he gets the word out there, and it sounds like
Speaker 1: and again, these are important. We're not going to read
Speaker 1: the whole thing to you, but these were the important
Speaker 1: nuggets here and robes he does. He sounds like he
Speaker 1: is preparing us for a larger scale engagement than we
Speaker 1: saw the last time.
Speaker 2: Yes, he began with this. The United States military began
Speaker 2: major combat operations in Iran. Our objective is to defend
Speaker 2: the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime.
Speaker 1: Okay, now that's something that's general, that's something we've heard before.
Speaker 1: But we've always been told, right, Brobes, that it's their
Speaker 1: nuclear ambitions, the nuclear ambitions. We can't let them go
Speaker 1: a step further. That's why we had to attack last summer.
Speaker 1: We can't let them go further. This is now sounding
Speaker 1: like a different justification. This next line, for sure, he
Speaker 1: goes back in history for why this moment is why
Speaker 1: this war needs to be launched.
Speaker 3: Yes, this is what the President said.
Speaker 2: For forty seven years, the Iranian regime has chanted death
Speaker 2: to America and waged an unending campaign of bloodshed and
Speaker 2: mass murder, targeting the United States, our troops, and the
Speaker 2: innocent people in many many countries. Among the regime's very
Speaker 2: first acts was to back a violent takeover of the
Speaker 2: US embassy in Tehran, holding dozens of American hostages for
Speaker 2: four hundred and forty four days. In nineteen eighty three,
Speaker 2: Iran's proxies carried out the Marine Barracks bombing in Beirut.
Speaker 2: They killed two hundred and forty one American military personnel.
Speaker 2: In two thousand they knew and were probably involved with
Speaker 2: the attack on the USS coal many died. Iranian forces
Speaker 2: killed and maimed hundreds of American service members in Iraq.
Speaker 2: The regime's proxies have continued to launch countless attacks against
Speaker 2: American forces stationed in the Middle East in recent years,
Speaker 2: as well as US naval and commercial vessels and international
Speaker 2: shipping lines. It's been mass terror and we're not going
Speaker 2: to put up with it any longer.
Speaker 1: And he goes back to our history like you've all
Speaker 1: been agitating us for a long time. This really did
Speaker 1: sound like we've just been keeping these receipts we're adding
Speaker 1: up and finally we're sick of this, and you got
Speaker 1: the wrong president. You're messing with the wrong dude. Yeah.
Speaker 2: It's unclear though what the straw that broke the camel's
Speaker 2: back was, though, because he does, yes, go back that
Speaker 2: far in history to detail all of the transgressions that
Speaker 2: Iran has committed against America. I yet I don't understand
Speaker 2: what this latest thing was that created now now being
Speaker 2: the moment or the knee for an actual attack.
Speaker 1: And we should mention we didn't say the top negotiations
Speaker 1: have been going on the US and Iran have been talking,
Speaker 1: actively negotiating even as late as Thursday. Jared Kushner and
Speaker 1: said the envoy we should know with cough, we should know,
Speaker 1: these are the phusiest two dudes on the planet, along
Speaker 1: with Rubio. Just we're talking. On Thursday, President said he
Speaker 1: didn't like how those negotiations necessarily went, and here we are,
Speaker 1: but wrote the justification now is much much different, and
Speaker 1: he is saying that part of it, yes, is those negotiations.
Speaker 1: But like you just laid out history, he went back
Speaker 1: to the hostage. He said, that is part of the
Speaker 1: justification for today.
Speaker 2: Something happened in nineteen eighty three.
Speaker 1: That's what we're going back to. So he's using this justification.
Speaker 1: He said. They rejected every opportunity to renounce their nuclear ambitions,
Speaker 1: and we can't take it anymore. Instead, they attempted to
Speaker 1: rebuild their nuclear program and to continue developing the long
Speaker 1: range missile that can now threaten our very good friends
Speaker 1: and allies in Europe. Are troops stationed overseas and could
Speaker 1: soon reach the American homeland. That sounds scary. Security experts
Speaker 1: say something else that they don't have that capability and
Speaker 1: they won't anytime soon fine, but still to put that
Speaker 1: line in there. If an American citizen that's hearing that,
Speaker 1: they go, hell, yeah, we got to stop that. We
Speaker 1: can't have those missiles coming over here.
Speaker 2: Yes, but what's interesting is he mentioned our good friends
Speaker 2: and allies in Europe. Are they Why would they then
Speaker 2: not be a part of this strike as well.
Speaker 3: That's an interesting thought.
Speaker 2: If you're closer logistically to said country that is building
Speaker 2: missiles that could reach them, you'd think they would even
Speaker 2: have a bigger vested interest.
Speaker 3: But it's of note. Great Britain not involved. I know
Speaker 3: people ask the question if the UK.
Speaker 2: Had any hand, even from an intelligence standpoint, and nope,
Speaker 2: they had nothing to do with this operation.
Speaker 1: And you know, a lot of them and folks. Right now, again,
Speaker 1: we are recording this just hours after what five or
Speaker 1: so hours after this all started. Right now, news alerts
Speaker 1: are flying, Statements are flying from allies in the region,
Speaker 1: from other countries in the region, from leaders, from ministries,
Speaker 1: you name it, all putting out some kind of a
Speaker 1: statement saying we didn't have anything to do with this,
Speaker 1: we are looking into this, we support this, we are
Speaker 1: against this. Everything is lying and emergency meetings are happening everywhere.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is destabilizing, It.
Speaker 1: Absolutely is, so this next line here, But the President
Speaker 1: has is now laying out the objectives today and for
Speaker 1: this operation, which again Ropes doesn't sound like this is
Speaker 1: going to be a one and done.
Speaker 2: Oh that's right, he says, for these reasons, the United
Speaker 2: States military is undertaking a massive and ongoing operation to
Speaker 2: prevent this very wicked radical dictatorship from threatening America and
Speaker 2: our core national security interests. We're going to destroy their
Speaker 2: missiles and raise their missile industry to the ground. It
Speaker 2: will be totally again obliterated. We're going to annihilate their navy.
Speaker 2: We're going to ensure that the region's terrorist proxies can
Speaker 2: no longer destabilize the region or the world and attack
Speaker 2: our forces, and no longer use their IEDs or roadside
Speaker 2: bombs as they are sometimes called to so gravely wound
Speaker 2: and kill thousands and thousands of people, including many Americans.
Speaker 2: And we will ensure that Iran does not obtain a
Speaker 2: nuclear weapon. It's a very simple message. They never they
Speaker 2: will never have a nuclear weapon.
Speaker 1: We always knew about that part. But he lays out
Speaker 1: so many other justifications and objectives here. We're going to
Speaker 1: wipe out the navy. We're wiped it. The President is
Speaker 1: now talking about something completely different. This is not just
Speaker 1: targeted after the nuclear weapons program and ropes. We have
Speaker 1: seen this morning that initially the US the strikes appear
Speaker 1: to go after military targets, but also there are reports
Speaker 1: plenty out there that the home of the Supreme leader
Speaker 1: there has been targeted as well, that leadership is being
Speaker 1: targeted in Iran. Robes.
Speaker 3: This is as happening right now.
Speaker 1: This is like they have made a decision. It sounds
Speaker 1: like Trump is made to decision to start Iran over,
Speaker 1: to reset Iran by getting rid of a regime that
Speaker 1: folks have been talking about for decades, getting rid of
Speaker 1: regime change in Iran. Regime change in Iran hadn't happened
Speaker 1: yet but till now. But he is doubling down, I think,
Speaker 1: and making a commitment almost. It sounds like in a
Speaker 1: way Robes that how can you back off of back
Speaker 1: down from this? He has to see this through.
Speaker 2: Oh no, when you make a move like this, you
Speaker 2: go in and you have to go in all the way.
Speaker 3: And that's the question.
Speaker 2: Can you do it without He claims he's not putting
Speaker 2: boots on the ground, but can you actually do it
Speaker 2: the way it needs to be done to maintain or
Speaker 2: to at least complete your objective.
Speaker 1: But stay here, folks. He had a warning, a warning
Speaker 1: for Americans in his message said we need to be prepared,
Speaker 1: possibly for casualties in this thing. Also, the President had
Speaker 1: a very direct message for the people of Iran. You
Speaker 1: need to take over your own government. And he had
Speaker 1: an offer for those military and police in Iran as well.
Speaker 1: Stare We continue here on Amy and TJ on a
Speaker 1: breaking news morning. We're waking up the country is on
Speaker 1: a Saturday morning, finding out that the country is at
Speaker 1: war with Iran. Large scale attack been launched by the
Speaker 1: United States and Israel against sites in Iran. Iran roopes
Speaker 1: has begun. How they put out statements saying they were
Speaker 1: going to retaliate. There are a lot of US bases
Speaker 1: and personnel in the region. We are starting to get
Speaker 1: reports that those have come under attack against. Sorry, folks,
Speaker 1: we don't have more definitive information, but it's starting to
Speaker 1: just trickle out. Because this is brand new, this is fresh.
Speaker 1: We also know ROPE plenty of times when we see
Speaker 1: things happening in Iran. What do they do cut off
Speaker 1: communication so that phone lines and internet and those things,
Speaker 1: it's hard to get information out. But this is right
Speaker 1: now a possible reshaping of the region once again in Americans,
Speaker 1: and American lives could be at risk, and he did.
Speaker 1: The President warned of that in his speech, and I
Speaker 1: guess in an ominous but a direct way, he had
Speaker 1: to acknowledge this.
Speaker 2: Just even this is a Saturday morning shocker, just to
Speaker 2: even hear you recap all of that as we join
Speaker 2: you all once again, and it's just it's hard to imagine.
Speaker 2: I feel like every day you wake up and there's
Speaker 2: some new shocking headline, but this one takes the cake.
Speaker 2: And this is going to clearly change not only the
Speaker 2: region there in the Middle East, but certainly all the
Speaker 2: countries around in our allies. Everyone has to pick sides,
Speaker 2: Everyone has to decide are.
Speaker 3: We doing the right thing?
Speaker 2: We've joined with Israel, and even members of our own government,
Speaker 2: as you pointed out, are waking up and saying, wait,
Speaker 2: what are we doing?
Speaker 3: Who gave the green light to this?
Speaker 2: Does the President even need congressional approval these days?
Speaker 1: Obviously that's going to be the debate. Ah way, he's
Speaker 1: going to be the depay debate robes and legally, what
Speaker 1: does he have the authority to do? That is not
Speaker 1: because there's no way we are going to be able
Speaker 1: to explain it here, because the legal the legal folks,
Speaker 1: the scholars, the experts don't even agree on the power
Speaker 1: he has. In Congress last time they were trying to
Speaker 1: do limit his ability to do things on his own.
Speaker 1: And some will say he has the power to do this.
Speaker 1: Others say, hey, you should have come and talked to
Speaker 1: us ropes. As we are recording, there are members of
Speaker 1: the US Congress who aren't aware.
Speaker 2: They're not awake, they're sleeping, and they went to bed
Speaker 2: thinking that we were not at poor So.
Speaker 3: Yes, we'll continue to read part of what the press.
Speaker 2: President said in his eight minute taped address to the
Speaker 2: nation that he put out at two thirty this morning.
Speaker 2: He said, I do not make this statement lightly. The
Speaker 2: Iranian regime seeks to kill the lives of courageous American heroes.
Speaker 2: May be lost, and we may have casualties that often
Speaker 2: happens in war, but we're doing this not for now.
Speaker 2: We're doing this for the future, and it is a
Speaker 2: noble mission.
Speaker 1: Maybe if Americans believe that. Okay, but he's essentially saying
Speaker 1: we need to put American lives possibly at risk to
Speaker 1: do this, because he's saying it is a bigger mission.
Speaker 1: This next part here roped. We don't exactly know what
Speaker 1: it means. But he spoke to the armed forces there
Speaker 1: in Iran. I got direct message and almost was negotiating
Speaker 1: with him, giving an offer. We don't quite understand how
Speaker 1: it would work.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So he says to the members of the Islamic
Speaker 2: Revolutionary Guard, the armed forces and all of the police,
Speaker 2: I say tonight that you must lay down your weapons
Speaker 2: and have complete immunity, or in the ald time hernative
Speaker 2: face certain death.
Speaker 3: So lay down your arms.
Speaker 2: You will be treated fairly with total immunity, or you
Speaker 2: will face certain death. So he's he's saying that if
Speaker 2: they don't fight back, you be held accountable, Yes, and
Speaker 2: they won't be killed.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just give up your weapons to whom and then
Speaker 1: raise your hand to whom. Who are you surrendering to? Okay,
Speaker 1: maybe that sounds attractive. We don't know how that would work,
Speaker 1: but we don't have boots.
Speaker 3: On the ground rebels. I guess, is that what he's
Speaker 3: saying don't.
Speaker 1: I don't know who are they going to? He didn't
Speaker 1: explain that one.
Speaker 2: Yes, and then so then he goes on to address
Speaker 2: the Iranian people. Finally, to the great proud people of Iran,
Speaker 2: I say tonight that the hour of your freedom is
Speaker 2: at hand. Stay sheltered, don't leave your home. It's very
Speaker 2: dangerous outside. Bombs will be dropping everywhere. When we are
Speaker 2: finished take over your government, it will be yours to take.
Speaker 2: This will be probably your only chance for generation.
Speaker 1: That is a he's setting up a I mean, is
Speaker 1: that message going to be received with any real sense?
Speaker 1: Or do they think that's a sincere statement? Right? Is
Speaker 1: this the only chance? He's setting this up as I'm
Speaker 1: giving you an opportunity to do something that's been talked
Speaker 1: about for decades. To do it now or you won't
Speaker 1: get another chance.
Speaker 2: Look easy to say, but now, if you're not getting
Speaker 2: boots on the ground, you're not getting that support after
Speaker 2: the bombs go off from America or from Israel. Now
Speaker 2: you have to trust that you'll be able to take
Speaker 2: up arms against your government, that they were disabled enough
Speaker 2: or destroyed enough that you'll be able to rise up
Speaker 2: in what if you don't like that's just a tall order.
Speaker 2: We're gonna give you a head start, but you got
Speaker 2: to finish the job.
Speaker 1: But this next, this last part here, he really went
Speaker 1: a little further road ropes in challenging them, almost like
Speaker 1: I'm giving you once you wont there's on you.
Speaker 2: Yes, he says, for many years you have asked for
Speaker 2: America's help, but you never got it. No president was
Speaker 2: willing to do what I am willing to do tonight.
Speaker 2: Now you have a president who is giving you what
Speaker 2: you want. So let's see how you respond. America is
Speaker 2: backing you with overwhelming strength and devastating force. Now is
Speaker 2: the time to seize control of your destiny and to
Speaker 2: unleash the prosperous and glorious future that is close within
Speaker 2: your reach. This is the moment for action. Do not
Speaker 2: let it pass.
Speaker 1: We chall see it was a weird thing. You've been
Speaker 1: asking for it here it was I don't know. It
Speaker 1: wasn't I don't know. It was a I don't know,
Speaker 1: strange way to go about it. Necessarily, he said, all right,
Speaker 1: give me what you want it now, what you're gonna do.
Speaker 1: The tone sounded I get what he's saying, but it
Speaker 1: sounded that way, all right, you asked for it, Now
Speaker 1: you got it. What you're gonna do? I've done my part.
Speaker 1: Now you all have to do yours. But it doesn't
Speaker 1: sink are we we're not coordinating this? That the ouronans
Speaker 1: on the start of their work week, which has been
Speaker 1: why reported today how kids were going to school, people
Speaker 1: were going about their day. This is the start of
Speaker 1: a fresh day. And did they ask for bombs to
Speaker 1: start dropping and them to start scrambling on this day?
Speaker 1: Do they? I don't know. There is obviously robes the
Speaker 1: faction within that government or within that country that would
Speaker 1: like regime change. You see it on the streets. Yes,
Speaker 1: but the protests.
Speaker 2: The change is scary, Change is hard, and change usually
Speaker 2: means death and chaos, and so yes, that is not
Speaker 2: necessarily something people are prepared to go through to get
Speaker 2: the end result.
Speaker 3: They may want.
Speaker 1: You know what that is it in that it's not
Speaker 1: going to be the title of this episode, but growth,
Speaker 1: death and chaos, And this is not how anybody wants
Speaker 1: to wake up. Nobody wants war and robes. You said it.
Speaker 1: What has been the week? The Clinton's right Epstein.
Speaker 3: Testimony calls for Trump to testify.
Speaker 1: Missing files all these things. Now, this has been talked
Speaker 1: about obviously with Iran for weeks and these negotiations going on.
Speaker 1: But of course you're going to have some people like, wow,
Speaker 1: wag the dog. He really changed the topic.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he did. He certainly did. I mean that is
Speaker 2: I believe what I said to you jokingly. I was like, Wow,
Speaker 2: what a wag the dog moment. I mean, there will
Speaker 2: of course be folks and critics who do say that
Speaker 2: the timing is suspicious. But regardless of what everyone wants
Speaker 2: to think, it is happening right now as we record this,
Speaker 2: and it is going to continue, and as we heard
Speaker 2: the President say, it is going to be massive and ongoing,
Speaker 2: and of course we will keep our eye on this
Speaker 2: developing story in the meantime, though, we appreciate you listening
Speaker 2: to us. As always, I'm Ami Roebuck alongside TJ.
Speaker 3: Holmes. We will talk to you soon
