1
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: The Charlie Kirk Show starts now.

2
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 2: War out of President has just issued a truth social

3
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: from the White House saying this based on conversations with

4
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 2: Prime Minister Sharif and Field Marshall, I meaner a Pakistan

5
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 2: and wherein they requested that I hold off the destructive

6
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 2: force being sent tonight to Iran and subject to the

7
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 2: Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the complete, immediate and

8
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: safe opening of the straight upore moves, I agree to

9
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 2: suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period

10
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 2: of two weeks. This will be a double sided cease fire.

11
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 2: The reason for doing so is that we have already

12
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 2: met and exceeded all military objectives and are very far

13
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 2: along with a definitive agreement concerning long term peace with

14
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 2: Iran and peace in the Middle East. We received a

15
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 2: ten point proposal from Iran and believe it is a workable.

16
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 1: Basis on which to negotiate.

17
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 2: Almost all of the various points of pass contention have

18
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 2: been agreed to between the United States and Iran, but

19
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 2: a two week period will allow the agreement to be

20
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 2: finalized and consummated on behalf of the United States of America.

21
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 2: As President and also representing the countries of the Middle East.

22
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: It is an honor to have this long term problem

23
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 2: close to resolution. Thank you for your attention to this matter,

24
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 2: President Donald J.

25
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:30,199
Speaker 1: Trump.

26
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 3: It is training at around ninety dollars today after closing

27
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 3: near one hundred and ten yesterday, a drop of by

28
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 3: more than fifteen percent.

29
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: And this is a big deal. One of the reasons,

30
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: Daga and you're seeing.

31
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 4: The oil price tumbling is because Trump has made it

32
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 4: very clear that one key provision that has to be

33
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,559
Speaker 4: agreed to by the Iranians is to open up the Strait.

34
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 5: Are saying that oil tankers passing through the strait have

35
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 5: been stopped because of Israel's cease fire breach.

36
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 6: See that that going on.

37
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 2: Asked President Trump if he's okay with that, if he's

38
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 2: okay with Iran charging a toll, and his answer was

39
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 2: quite stunning.

40
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: He said, maybe it will be a joint venture.

41
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 7: And I said, a joint venture between the US and Iran,

42
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 7: And he.

43
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 8: Said, yes, it's a beautiful thing. It's a beautiful thing.

44
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 6: Maybe we'll do that.

45
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 9: The President has told us not to use those tools.

46
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 9: He's told us to come to the negotiating table. But

47
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,679
Speaker 9: if the Iranians don't do the exact same thing. They're

48
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 9: going to find out that the President of the United

49
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 9: States is not one to mess around. He's impatient, he's

50
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 9: impatient to make progress. He has told us to negotiating

51
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 9: good faith, and I think if they negotiating good faith,

52
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 9: we will be able to find a deal with That's

53
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 9: a big if, and ultimately it's up to the Iranians

54
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 9: with how they negotiate.

55
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: I hope they make the right decision. I think go

56
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: breaking with oh faith.

57
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 10: No, they're not.

58
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 11: I think they go up breaking at all.

59
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: It's faith.

60
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 6: I think it's been very bad, very bad, not good

61
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 6: at all.

62
00:02:58,560 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: Maybe we may go to a fred.

63
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:01,679
Speaker 11: I don't know what Spain's doing.

64
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 2: They've been very banned in NATO.

65
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 11: They get protected.

66
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: They don't want to pay.

67
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 11: Their fair share, and they've been that way for many years.

68
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: That includes ten separate points.

69
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 12: Some of them include the US guaranteeing a non aggression

70
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 12: pack with Iran, continuing Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz,

71
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 12: acceptance that Iran can enrich uranium for its nuclear program,

72
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 12: removal of all primary sanctions on Iran, removal of secondary sanctions,

73
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 12: an end of all UN Security Council resolutions against Iran,

74
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 12: an end to the IAEA's resolutions on Iran's nuclear program,

75
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 12: compensation payment for Iran and it's war damage, withdrawal of

76
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 12: US forces from the region, at a ceasefire on all fronts.

77
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 5: This is now new video we're getting in of vessels

78
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 5: in the Key Waterway and at some point you can

79
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 5: see these rock islands sitting right along the passageway for

80
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 5: tankers and ships like that one there. We believe that

81
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 5: some of these islands are still armed by Iran's regime.

82
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 5: We also believed some of these islands were hit directly

83
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 5: on behalf of the US military and Israel's air force

84
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 5: as well.

85
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: Our troops, our.

86
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 7: American warriors deserved a credit for this day, but God

87
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 7: deserves all the build tens of thousands of sorties, refuelings

88
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 7: and strikes carried out under the protection of Divine Providence,

89
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 7: a massive effort. Iran begged for this ceasefire, and we

90
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 7: all know it. Operation Epic Fury was a historic and

91
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 7: overwhelming victory on the battlefield, a capital v military victory.

92
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 7: You see, had Iran refused our terms, the next targets

93
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,359
Speaker 7: would have been their power plants, the bridges and oil

94
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 7: and energy infrastructure targets they could not defend and could

95
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 7: not realistically rebuild. It would have taken them decades, and

96
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 7: we were locked and loaded.

97
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 9: Every day is a battle for your mind, raging information

98
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 9: coming from every angle, but the will to deceive.

99
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 8: I fear not.

100
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 13: You found the place for truth, the voice of a

101
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 13: generation that still has the will to believe in the

102
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 13: greatest country.

103
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 8: In the history of the world.

104
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: This is the Charlie Kirk Show.

105
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 6: Fuck a lot.

106
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: Here we go on.

107
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 14: All right, Welcome to the Charlie Kirk Show. It is

108
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 14: April eighth, twenty twenty six. We are here at the

109
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 14: y re Fi Studios in Phoenix, Arizona.

110
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 8: Welcome Blake.

111
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 6: Howdy.

112
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 14: Blake's deep in thought. Already lots of news. I mean,

113
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 14: I don't think that is a chakra for any of

114
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 14: you in the audience.

115
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 8: Tons of news. Obviously, we have.

116
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 14: A tentative, as Jade Vance says, a fragile piece that

117
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 14: has been struck, a two week piece deal with Iran.

118
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 14: But already we are seeing fractures and fissures.

119
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 8: This might not last, not last till the end of this.

120
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 14: So we're going to see if this two week peace

121
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 14: deal last at the ends of the show. We don't know,

122
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 14: so let's just go through all the facts. So a

123
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 14: peace deal was reached about ninety minutes before the eight

124
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,720
Speaker 14: pm Eastern deadline that President Trump had set where he

125
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 14: was going to the famous truth now basically end a civilization.

126
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 14: I personally didn't think that that ever met nuclear weapons.

127
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,080
Speaker 14: We talked about that on the show yesterday. Nevertheless, it

128
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,840
Speaker 14: got through. The message got through. There was actually an

129
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 14: interesting tweet by a friend of the show, Will Chamberlain,

130
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 14: who basically said thank you to all of the people

131
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 14: that were assuming the worst, because it actually may have

132
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 14: helped convince Iron to come to the peace table, the

133
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 14: peace negotiation table. There was obviously intermediation going on on

134
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 14: behalf of Pakistan and the prime minister there, But I

135
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 14: think it's important also to note that.

136
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 8: China played a huge role in this.

137
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 14: China exerted a force at the last minute on behalf

138
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 14: of I think by way of the Prime Minister of Pakistan.

139
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 14: I think it's safe to say China is probably one

140
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 14: of the beneficiaries of the cut rate oil that Iran

141
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 14: was pumping out into the marketplace. So China wanted this

142
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 14: deal to get done. Probably also because China has an

143
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 14: interest in the long term stability of the existing regime

144
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 14: or the framework that still exists, and other reasons. So

145
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 14: watch China in all of this. I just don't want

146
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 14: to make that very clear. That was reported by the

147
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 14: New York Times that China played a huge role at

148
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 14: the end there.

149
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 8: So we have this ten point plan.

150
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,239
Speaker 14: The White House is reporting that it is a different

151
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 14: ten point plan than.

152
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 8: The one that we have been previously seen that.

153
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 15: Plan.

154
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 16: We have allegedly a ceasefire to negotiate based off of

155
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 16: our frame fifteen point plan and their ten point plan

156
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 16: that is allegedly different than the one they'd given us before.

157
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 14: Yes, So what is also interesting here is what happens

158
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 14: to the Strait of Horn Moves. Okay, so previously oil

159
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 14: tankers were able to navigate the straight freely. That was

160
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 14: what was the previous status quo. Now it looks like

161
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 14: what could be the case is that there will be

162
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 14: tolls exacted upon tankers that go through the strait. President

163
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 14: Trump has told Jonathan Carl that that could be more

164
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 14: of a joint venture.

165
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 8: That sounds like something he'd get on board.

166
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 14: It does sound like something he'd get on board with

167
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 14: let's team up to do tariffs.

168
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, tariff.

169
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 14: So why this is noteworthy is again the previous status

170
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 14: quo you go through freely. Now you got to pay

171
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 14: a toll. Maybe it's a joint venture US and Iran

172
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 14: partnering in that. Maybe Iran just charges them unilaterally. We're

173
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 14: not sure how this is going to shake out, but

174
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 14: it is a massive new precedent to be set. Means

175
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 14: there could be tolls exacted on straights and canals all

176
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 14: through the world if this ends up taking place. So

177
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 14: that's something that we need to keep a lookout for

178
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 14: in the future.

179
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 8: It's relatively nominal.

180
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 14: And if you get peace and you get the straight

181
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 14: back opened and you get tolls, I suppose that a

182
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 14: deal a lot of people would probably be willing to make.

183
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 8: All right, Well, where we're at now.

184
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 16: Though, But the big problem now is we say this,

185
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 16: there is a ceasefire. It is time to last for

186
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 16: two weeks while they negotiate, But as we said, it

187
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 16: might not last till the end of this program because

188
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 16: it's not one clear if.

189
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 8: It's going on right now.

190
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 16: Well, there is still a lot of reports of explosions,

191
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 16: missiles being fired at Israel at Kuwait, at other targets.

192
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 8: And then this is.

193
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 16: Also a big one. There is a disagreement over the

194
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 16: scope of the ceasefire. In addition to the air campaign

195
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 16: and missile campaign against Iran and in the Gulf, there's

196
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 16: also been an Israeli ground operation and bombing operation in Lebanon,

197
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 16: in fact that I believe it's killed more people than

198
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 16: the Iran missile exchanges.

199
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 8: And Iran and Pakistan.

200
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 16: Claim that that part of the conflict is covered by

201
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 16: this ceasefire, but Israel claims it's not, and now just

202
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 16: breaking in the last few minutes, the United States says

203
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 16: it's not, and that's a pretty big point of disagreement.

204
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 14: Well, and why this matters is because now Iran is

205
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 14: reportedly threatening tankers that are trying to navigate the strait.

206
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 14: So the strait is for all intents and purposes once

207
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 14: again closed. Now a few tankers I believe got through earlier,

208
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 14: but it is now halted. Those that movement has been

209
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 14: halted because they are claiming Israel has violated the terms

210
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 14: of the ceasefire. But we just don't know if Hesbealah

211
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 14: and southern Lebanon was included at all. So there's disagreements

212
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 14: on that. We've got a lot to unpack here. There's

213
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 14: I think a really important press conference. It's going to

214
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 14: be had at one pm Caroline Levett White House Press Conference.

215
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 14: So we are going to be throwing to that live

216
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 14: later in the hour two because there's a lot of

217
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 14: details that remain unclear. What are the details of the

218
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 14: new ten point plan, how much does it reflect the

219
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,959
Speaker 14: previously reported ten point plan. What's gonna happen with the

220
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 14: Strait of horn Moose? Are we really seriously looking at

221
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 14: charging tariffs and tolls to navigate the strait. There's a

222
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 14: lot to unpack here, but I think most importantly this

223
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 14: is what's gonna happen. And Blake and I were talking

224
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,079
Speaker 14: about this right before the show started. Everybody's going to

225
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 14: declare victory, right, so we're seeing reports that they are

226
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 14: waving Iranian flags in Tehran and that they are claiming victory.

227
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 14: Pete Hegseth gave a press conference this morning claiming victory

228
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 14: with a capital V. Sometimes in war there is not

229
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 14: really a clear victor, and I.

230
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 8: Think that's one of the This is one of those instances.

231
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 14: Would Iran have preferred to not been bombed and have

232
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:54,319
Speaker 14: eighty to ninety percent of their military apparatus destroyed, their

233
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 14: manufacturing apparatus destroyed, of course, but would could you make

234
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 14: the argument that this was a bit of a pyrrhic

235
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 14: victory on behalf of the United States in the sense that, yes,

236
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 14: we had have air superiority, we decimated much of their

237
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 14: military industrial complex, but the strait was open before and

238
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 14: now that remains in question. And if we remove sanctions

239
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 14: on a Ran in oil and energy and other products

240
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 14: that they make from its petroleum, will Iran emerge stronger

241
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,199
Speaker 14: in the wake of this, And that's a huge potential here.

242
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 16: I spoke with a friend of mine who's good on

243
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 16: foreign policy stuff, and he says, the likely long term

244
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 16: goal here, probably to get a permanent peace deal, might

245
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 16: have to be you would agree, which Auran has been

246
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 16: fighting for for Basically, the ideal deal we could make

247
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 16: is they actually do back off from their nuclear deal,

248
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,839
Speaker 16: but in return we do fully regularize our relationship with them,

249
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 16: which means you remove sanctions, you normalize trade, and yeah,

250
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 16: you let them toll the straight. They're saying it might

251
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 16: be one dollar per barrel for oil going through it,

252
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 16: So that's not that's about you, maybe like a three

253
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 16: four percent tax tariff on all oil going out, But

254
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 16: I think.

255
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 8: You have to say.

256
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 16: We said at the outset, the best way to sell

257
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,679
Speaker 16: this war is if it is the last war of

258
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 16: the US fights in the Middle East, And the only

259
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 16: way that's going to happen is if we have a

260
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 16: government in Iran we can treat as a normal country.

261
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 14: Well, and there does remain so, and we want to

262
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:21,679
Speaker 14: get into this in the next segment. There was a

263
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 14: massive report out of the New York Times by two

264
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 14: relatively trustworthy reporters, and we could some of it could

265
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,079
Speaker 14: be fake news. It's apparent to me that the story

266
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 14: has been worked by those mentioned in it. But that's

267
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 14: Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan of the New York Times.

268
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 14: They have a really a breathtaking expose of how this

269
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,080
Speaker 14: war got underway, and we're going to break that down

270
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 14: for you and explain what that means moving forward. But

271
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 14: in the meantime, I want to tell you about Strong Cell.

272
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 14: Strong Cell is a great partner of this show.

273
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 17: Here.

274
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 14: It is a little two ounce bottle with delicious I

275
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 14: would call it orange, but maybe mango, something citrusy. It's

276
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 14: just orange cellular function booster. It's got NADH. Now here's

277
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 14: the deal. A lot of you have probably heard of

278
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 14: NAD and you're taking NAD. Not NADH so bad for absorption,

279
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 14: or you're taking it encapsule form also not good for absorption.

280
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 14: NADH better for absorption, and this is a liquid formula

281
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 14: better for absorption. So this is gonna really outperform a

282
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 14: lot of the other let's just call them other NAD

283
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 14: products on the market. This is an amazing, amazing breakthrough product.

284
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 14: It gets it straight to your cells. And here's the

285
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 14: best part. It's got a ninety day risk free money

290
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 14: Lots of news coming in. Apologies, we're taking it all in.

291
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 14: There's a new truth from President Trump that I want

292
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 14: to get here, says numerous agreements, lists and letters are

293
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 14: being sent out by people that have absolutely nothing to

294
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 14: do with the USA Roun negotiation. In many cases they

295
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 14: are total fraudsters, Charlatan's and worse, they will be rapidly

296
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 14: exposed after our federal investigation is completed. There is only

297
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 14: one group of meaningful points, and we will be discussing

298
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 14: them behind closed doors during these negotiations. These are the

299
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 14: points that are the basis on which we agreed to

300
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 14: a ceasefire. It is something that is reasonable and can

301
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 14: easily be dispensed with. It is very much like fake

302
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 14: new CNN last night headlining a source that had no

303
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 14: power or authority to write a letter claiming great authority

304
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 14: President Donald J.

305
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 8: Trump. So a lot of back.

306
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 14: And forth about what the actual source is here, Blake

307
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 14: who what the ten points are? Again, just to underscore

308
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 14: the point, to make it extremely clear. They're calling it

309
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 14: the foundation for a negotiation, not that the points have

310
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 14: been agreed to. President Trump says, many of the points

311
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 14: have already been sort of sorted out, but there remains

312
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 14: some sticking points. Obviously, I think that it has to

313
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 14: be a different deal than what was previously reported because

314
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 14: the previous one was completely unworkable. There was things that

315
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 14: we would never agree to in that previous ten point plan.

316
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 14: So President Trump doing his best to clarify this. Okay,

317
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 14: I want to get into this New York Times expos

318
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 14: because everybody that I know was sending me this thing yesterday.

319
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 14: It was going all around basically, and Blake fill fill

320
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 14: in the gaps that I miss here. It explains that

321
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 14: bb net and Yahoo, in an extraordinary moment, was essentially

322
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 14: presented his case in the intel behind his pitch to

323
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 14: attack Iran.

324
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 8: But he did it in the situation room.

325
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 14: He did it in the situation room before Obviously, all

326
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 14: this happens in February, which, as far as I'm aware,

327
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 14: is the first time a leader of a foreign government

328
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 14: had done something like that inside the situation room. Gathered

329
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 14: around the table was obviously President Trump, his chief of Staff,

330
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:13,400
Speaker 14: Susie Wiles, Pete Hegseth, Marco Rubio, jd Vance apparently couldn't

331
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 14: make it back in time for this initial meeting.

332
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 8: Who else am I missing?

333
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,719
Speaker 14: John Radcliff from the CIA Raisin Cain joint chiefs. So

334
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 14: there it was an extraordinarily small meeting, but with all

335
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 14: the firepower in the US military, with bb net Yahoo

336
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 14: doing a pitch in the situation room, and he presented

337
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 14: four points basically that he thought that they could do

338
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 14: a decapitation move take out the leadership, that they could

339
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 14: essentially wipe out the military of Iran really successfully. But

340
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 14: then points three and four were more controversial.

341
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 16: Basically, Blake, I don't know if you want to could

342
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 16: quality claim it was a four point plan. It was

343
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,640
Speaker 16: take out as you said, take out the Ayatola, take

344
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,679
Speaker 16: out the military. But then he had this boulder claim

345
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 16: that there would be able to line uprisings within Iran,

346
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 16: either invasions by Kurds or just dissidents within the country.

347
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,479
Speaker 16: And then point four there would be a full regime

348
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 16: change to a secular leader who would be pro Western

349
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 16: and friendly to the United States.

350
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 14: This is where it gets really interesting. So gathered around

351
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 14: that table where the characters I just mentioned, they meet afterwards,

352
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 14: then jd. Vance makes it back, gets a briefing. Now

353
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 14: he's part of this discussion, and essentially John Radcliffe, Marco Rubio,

354
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,880
Speaker 14: and JD. Vance all called bs on zero point three

355
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 14: and four. And Raisin Kine made an observation that I

356
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 14: think is one of those things that is going to

357
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 14: linger in our collective consciousness for a long time. He said,

358
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 14: the Israelis tend to over sell and underdeliver. Their intel

359
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 14: is inflated. So what happened is they go around the

360
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,639
Speaker 14: table again they meet. I think basically within that week,

361
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 14: jade Vance said, you know what I think, Sir President

362
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 14: Trump asked for ever his opinion. Jadevan says, you know what,

363
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 14: I think, Sirrh's a bad idea, but if you do it, I'll.

364
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 8: Support you for a number of reasons.

365
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 14: Marco Rubio says, if you want to go in for

366
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 14: points one and two, then I think you should do it.

367
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 14: But if you think three and four are going to happen,

368
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,360
Speaker 14: you shouldn't. Because he called it BS, but he used

369
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 14: the real world word raising. Kaine is sort of described

370
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 14: as this guy who's not offering his opinions necessarily on

371
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 14: whether he thinks it's right or wrong, but he's gives

372
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 14: the details to the question the president asks.

373
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 8: And I think there's some reticence there.

374
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 14: Susie Willer said, you know, basically described it's not Yeah.

375
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 16: What stands out here if you read it, is, at

376
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 16: least in this report by the New York Times, which

377
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 16: is presumably based on all the people a bunch of

378
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,439
Speaker 16: the people involved in these conversations talking to the New

379
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 16: York Times or their staff talking to the New York Times,

380
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 16: no one is really willing to take ownership for launching

381
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 16: the war other than the president himself. The narrative told

382
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:01,640
Speaker 16: in this story is almost everyone on the president is skeptical,

383
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 16: but the President.

384
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 8: Wants to go for it, right. That is the story

385
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:05,120
Speaker 8: they tell.

386
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 14: So it's obvious to me that the story has been worked.

387
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 14: But we have not seen much pushback from the administration

388
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 14: saying it's not true. We haven't seen pushback from the

389
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 14: staff saying it's not true. We haven't even seen, as

390
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 14: far as I am aware, that any pushback from the Israelis.

391
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 14: So I would say the basic structure of this agreement

392
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:26,880
Speaker 14: is true, and it reflects other things that I'd sort

393
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 14: of heard privately about who was rushing in or who

394
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 14: wasn't rushing into this thing.

395
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 8: I think the takeaway for me is a couple things.

396
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 14: But namely, there's been a lot of debate whether or

397
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 14: not President Trump got quote unquote dog walked into this war.

398
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 14: My conclusion, based on this report in this expose, plus

399
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 14: all of the footage that we've seen of President Trump

400
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 14: throughout the years, is that no. I think maybe there

401
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 14: was confirmation bias, you can make that argument, but President

402
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 14: Trump seems to have basically made the decision that he

403
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,479
Speaker 14: wanted to do this. He's wanted to hit Iran for

404
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 14: a long time. And I will say this, this is

405
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,439
Speaker 14: my last point, and they'll get your take, Blake, do

406
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 14: not underestimate the significance of Iran attempting to assassinate President Trump,

407
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 14: whether they actually did attempt it or signaled their intention

408
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:22,640
Speaker 14: to do it, that will leave an incredible, indelible imprint

409
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 14: on anybody's psyche. And I think you take that back

410
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:32,159
Speaker 14: to the fact that the older Americans remember being insulted

411
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 14: by Iran, the Iranian hostage crisis and the like, and

412
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 14: it's been a thorn in the side of the United

413
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 14: States for long enough that I think President Trump was

414
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 14: the man who wanted to make the decision. Whereas you

415
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 14: get younger generations like JD. Marco, they were less enthusiastic.

416
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 16: Blake, your take, I think that's very possible, and you

417
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 16: want to be careful with that, or I am taken

418
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 16: back to when we overthrew Saddam Hussein, which a lot

419
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 16: of the argument from the left was Bush did thistly

420
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 16: for sentimental reasons that his dad hadn't taken out Saddam

421
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 16: and that was why he'd lost reelection, and he had

422
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 16: to go back and finish the job. There was a

423
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 16: lot of there was a big lobby to overthrow Saddam

424
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 16: well before nine to eleven happened, like nine to eleven

425
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 16: essentially just offered the excuse to do it. And if

426
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 16: you're correct, that's kind of the feeling I get here.

427
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 16: You are the president has thought about Ron for literally decades.

428
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 8: He does remember the hostage crisis.

429
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 16: Those are things that would all motivate him, but that's

430
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 16: not necessarily the best reason to launch a war, which

431
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 16: was really expensive and risky.

432
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 14: And I think there's a couple other takeaways here. I

433
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 14: do think there is a possibility here with after Venezuela,

434
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 14: maybe there was a sense that this would be a

435
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 14: greater risk, but the glory would be even greater as well,

436
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 14: and that we could get in get out quickly. I

437
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 14: think other people like Jade Vance, Marco Rubio Ratcliffe had

438
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:00,119
Speaker 14: a little bit more hesitancy because this is a lie.

439
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 8: This is a line that's worth emphasizing.

440
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 16: It also reports in the same article that he called

441
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 16: Tucker Carlson and he said it's going to be okay.

442
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 8: Tucker has why and he says, because it always is

443
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,919
Speaker 8: Tocsin Islamabad begin on Friday. You see how let's go.

444
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 14: Jonathan Kieperman joins US now.

445
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 18: From the dollars convertibility into gold ended in nineteen seventy one,

446
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,199
Speaker 18: gold was fixed at about thirty five dollars an ounce.

447
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:29,640
Speaker 6: Fast forward to.

448
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 18: Today, and the US dollar has lost over eighty five

449
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 18: percent of its purchasing power. Gold, on the other hand,

450
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 18: has increased in value by over twelve thousand percent, and

451
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,120
Speaker 18: that's why central banks are buying gold at record levels.

452
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 18: It's also why major firms like Vanguarden Blackrock hold significant

453
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,959
Speaker 18: positions in gold, and it's why we encourage you to

Speaker 8: You might know him as Lomez.

524
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 14: good insight. And we wanted to have him on because

525
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 14: so much has been made about the Maga fracturing over

526
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 14: the conflict in Iran, and we're not through it yet.

527
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,920
Speaker 14: We're not through the straight of horn Moose. Yet we're

528
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 14: not through this yet. I don't think so, Jonathan, welcome

529
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 14: back to the show. It's so good to have man.

530
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 19: Blake and Andrew. It's great to be here. And I

531
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 19: appreciate the praise. I always love hearing that from you guys,

532
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 19: So I could get used to hearing that every day.

533
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 14: I try to, you know, it's it's got to take

534
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 14: you back on We've.

535
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 16: Got a visual here running from left to right, like

536
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 16: no hair, medium hair, extremely large amount of hair.

537
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: This is after peptides. Okay, they have peptides for this,

538
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: so listen.

539
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 8: I just got a haircut, not long ago. Okay, whatever

540
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 8: you say, Andrew.

541
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 14: So Jonathan, let's just get your viewpoint first of all

542
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 14: on where we're at with the ceasefire, and then we'll

543
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 14: get into the way the movement has reacted to it.

544
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean, you know, just to set the table

545
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 19: for for your listeners. You know, this is something I

546
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 19: talk about quite a lot on the show with with

547
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 19: Chris Rufo. We have a show on the Blaze and

548
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 19: we've been talking about the Iran war, and I share

549
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 19: I think your guys' perspective, not to speak for you both,

550
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 19: which is that I was always skeptical of this as

551
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 19: a military operation.

552
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 1: It was unclear to me what the objectives were.

553
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 19: It was a bit unclear to me how we were

554
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 19: meant to achieve those objectives and certainly what the day

555
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 19: after was might look like. And I was also maybe

556
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 19: primarily worried that this would distract from domestic priorities. There's

557
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 19: a domestic agenda that we want to see this administration

558
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 19: not just continue to pursue, but achieve it at a

559
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 19: significant rate as we head into the midterm. So I

560
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 19: want to see us refocus our efforts on that. But

561
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 19: I will say I was never a doomer about this war,

562
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 19: and I think, you know, like everybody today, I'm going

563
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 19: to claim some kind of vindication, maybe prematurely, but that

564
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 19: is just to say that I never bought the sort

565
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 19: of catastrophe scenario that many people was selling. I think

566
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 19: what we saw yesterday, even if this ceasefire doesn't hold

567
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 19: permanently right now, even if these negotiations take several weeks

568
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 19: to get going and start to produce results, that at

569
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 19: least the markets oil prices to god nose dive yesterday

570
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 19: after this was announced. The stock market is on a

571
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 19: historic upward trend now after these announcements suggest to me

572
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 19: that there was always a way out of this, that

573
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 19: Trump at any moment could essentially fold the hand.

574
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: Okay, and that might not sound well.

575
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 19: To the administration administrative boosters, but it's that's really what

576
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 19: Taco means, I think, is a willingness when you know

577
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 19: the cards aren't your favor, to just fold the hand.

578
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 19: And so if that's what this means here, that Trump

579
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 19: is going to hold fold the hand and we just

580
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 19: cut our losses and can get out of this. While

581
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 19: in the grand scheme of things, it might not be

582
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 19: a high point for this term, it's not going to

583
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 19: be I don't think the catastrophe that many have been

584
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 19: selling online. So that's that's one part of it. And

585
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 19: I think the other thing I learned, or that we're learning,

586
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,560
Speaker 19: and that has been clear all along, but maybe certain

587
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 19: people have neglected in this equation is that Iran as

588
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 19: a rational actor. Okay, we may not like them, we

589
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 19: may not like what they do, we may not like

590
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 19: their point of view and some of the geopolitical objectives

591
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 19: that they pursue, but they are motivated by survival, and

592
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 19: when you're dealing with a counterpart who is motivated by survival.

593
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 19: You can predict what they want and what they will

594
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 19: respond to. They will respond to certain kinds of incentives,

595
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 19: and I think we are seeing that here with the ceasefire,

596
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 19: as imperfect as it may be. And what this all

597
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 19: redounds to, in my view, is that we actually have

598
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 19: a lot of optionality here. We're in a situation where

599
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 19: there's a lot of opportunity to maneuver and negotiate, and

600
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 19: this is really, of course, where Trump shines at the

601
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 19: negotiation table. So I'm cautiously optimistic that this could result

602
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 19: itself and more or less, from a domestic political standpoint,

603
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 19: be forgotten by let's say mid June, which would be

604
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 19: I think ideal and set us up for mid terms

605
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 19: rather well.

606
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, and I think I really agree with that.

607
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 14: I was never a doomer on it. I've always been

608
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 14: skeptical about this war. I you know, Blake likes to say,

609
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 14: and I agree with it, that you can always start

610
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 14: a war, you can't always decide when end it. But

611
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 14: I would say that as far as ending a war,

612
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 14: we had more, as you say, optionality here than a

613
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 14: lot of other scenarios that you could imagine, and we

614
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 14: kept saying like Trump could simply just declare victory and

615
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 14: get out. Yeah, I mean essentially that's what he was

616
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 14: kind of positioning, I believe, with the straight of horn

617
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 14: Moos saying, Hey, we don't get any of our energy

618
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 14: from there. It's your guys' problem, NATO, if you guys

619
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 14: want the straight open and I think we're going to

620
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 14: kind of see some of that when it comes to

621
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,840
Speaker 14: whether they're tariff or whether it's a joint venture, whether

622
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 14: we allow Iran to, you know, put a toll on

623
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 14: these tankers that go through.

624
00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 8: Not ideal.

625
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 14: It sets a bad press and I think for energy

626
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 14: and trade throughout the world.

627
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 8: But it's also not a doomsday scenario.

628
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,920
Speaker 16: I think if the president, I think the one thing

629
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 16: he seems consistently fixated on is.

630
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 8: The nuclear weapon part.

631
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 16: I think if you can credibly claim I have made

632
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 16: it so this will never happen or it will take

633
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 16: an extremely long time to happen.

634
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 8: I agree he's ready to accept a lot of other things.

635
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 8: I totally agree.

636
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 14: I think what's going to happen out of this, and

637
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 14: then I'll throw to you, Jonathan, is the negotiations that

638
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 14: are going to go on in Islamabad on. So apparently

639
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 14: starting Friday, there's some question of whether or not security

640
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 14: is such that JD Vance can participate. But Jared Kushner Witkough,

641
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 14: I think they are going to demand that there are

642
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 14: actual American forces or observers or whatever that goes.

643
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 8: On with this I E. A E or whatever.

644
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 14: Maybe I got the apenim wrong that goes in and

645
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 14: actually removes it, physically removes it and observes the removal

646
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 14: of that. If they can negotiate that in all of this,

647
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 14: You're right, Blake, I think they're going to be willing

648
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 14: to put up with a lot, including removing sanctions.

649
00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 8: This tolls through the strait. Jonathan, you're yeah.

650
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,560
Speaker 19: I just think that you know, Blake's right, and ending

651
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 19: a war is difficult, But what you want in this

652
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,799
Speaker 19: situation is for everybody to be able to walk away.

653
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 19: Both sides need to be able to walk away, saving

654
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 19: face to their own people, their own constituency. Iran can

655
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 19: tell their people that they made the Great Satan blink, okay,

656
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 19: and that's all they need, and they survived. There was

657
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 19: no regime change, so they're still standing. That is a

658
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 19: win sort of regardless of anything else that happens.

659
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:27,799
Speaker 1: From their end.

660
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,279
Speaker 19: From Trump's point of view, the big headline item here,

661
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,879
Speaker 19: and I think really the thing that's motivating him, maybe

662
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 19: even more so than the nuclear material their uranium, is

663
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:38,879
Speaker 19: that he.

664
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: Got the Iyatola.

665
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 19: The Iatola has existed as this sort of bogeyman for

666
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 19: people Trump's age, going back to the Cold War. And

667
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 19: you know, Trump got another notch on his belt. He

668
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 19: got the iyatola. Their military capacity is badly degraded. Obviously

669
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 19: it can still do some stuff like control the straight

670
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,720
Speaker 19: of horror moves, but it's badly degraded.

671
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,280
Speaker 1: If he can get just some.

672
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 19: Compromise, even rhetorical compromise on the uranium stuff, I think

673
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 19: both sides can walk from this. And again, while it's

674
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 19: not a win per se, it's not a huge w

675
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 19: It's not the thing we're celebrating going into midterms. It's

676
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 19: largely forgotten I think in several months.

677
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 14: Yeah, and I just I do think that you could actually,

678
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,440
Speaker 14: you know, spike the football pretty largely in a big way, loudly,

679
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,799
Speaker 14: if you do get the concessions on nuclear And I

680
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 14: think because that has been the one most consistent drum

681
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 14: beat from President Trump when it comes to Iran, you

682
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 14: can't let Iran have nuclear if we get if we

683
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 14: get massive concessions there, but we have to give give

684
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 14: concessions back, for example, on sanctioning.

685
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,319
Speaker 8: Their oil, then that will that would be something that

686
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:51,919
Speaker 8: he could touch.

687
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 16: I think to say to the end, Iran getting nuclear

688
00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 16: weapons is the only thing that keeps us obsessed with them,

689
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 16: even if they're an annoying government. Frankly, even if a

690
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 16: government that funds terrorist activities to it's the new it

691
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:04,439
Speaker 16: makes them evil.

692
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 8: But there's a lot of evil government. I'm just saying.

693
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,920
Speaker 14: They killed upwards of fifty thousand of their own people

694
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 14: during the protests.

695
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 8: Yeah.

696
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:14,400
Speaker 14: And the question is, then, Jonathan, if we remove sanctions

697
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,279
Speaker 14: on their energy and their petrol chemicals and stuff like that,

698
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 14: are we actually going to potentially create a monster out

699
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:22,760
Speaker 14: of our run? I think that would be the one question,

700
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 14: because are they going to be stronger? One of the

701
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 14: questions that we have remaining out of this is are

702
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 14: they weakened? Will the people actually you know, topple the

703
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 14: regime eventually?

704
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 19: You know, this may run counter to you know, most

705
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:39,279
Speaker 19: people's preferences, but I think regularizing relationships with anyone.

706
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 1: Is a good idea. And if we can.

707
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 19: Regularize economic relationships with Iran. Maybe there's some rough water

708
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 19: that we have to pass through and they abuse that

709
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 19: for a period of time, but I think in the

710
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 19: long run, that's the only.

711
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 1: Way out of this.

712
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 19: Okay, we need to have a sort of global landscape

713
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:58,799
Speaker 19: where these countries participate in the broader global economy.

714
00:36:58,960 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 1: That is a win.

715
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,160
Speaker 19: And I think this larger narrative, the larger foreign policy narrative,

716
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 19: the Iran specific story gets captured by what's going on

717
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 19: everywhere else. With Venezuela, We'll see what happens with Cuba,

718
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 19: We'll see what we can strike a deal, maybe with China,

719
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 19: which I know is on the table and coming up soon.

720
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 19: So I think this can all work itself out, and

721
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 19: it isn't necessarily the case that removing sanctions is going

722
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:24,800
Speaker 19: to be some sort of catastrophic moment.

723
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 8: Yeah. I hope you're right, Jonathan. We're going to keep

724
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:28,720
Speaker 8: you for another segment.

725
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 14: I want to talk about the movement because I think

726
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 14: it's safe to say that many on the right were

727
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:41,400
Speaker 14: more viciously attacking President Trump than people on the left.

728
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,919
Speaker 14: Even especially yesterday, we saw it hit a fever pitch

729
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:46,799

775
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 14: talking about the maga media, you know world that helped

776
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:19,880
Speaker 14: create Trump.

777
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 8: Mega media is great unraveling.

778
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 14: Of course, there's a picture of Tucker, Alex Jones, Marjor

779
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 14: Taylor Green, Matt Walsh and Cerno.

780
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 8: Pretty sure, you know, you know.

781
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 14: It is truth to say that this has caused a

782
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 14: massive amount of consternation, hand rigging, and actual attacks on

783
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 14: the president.

784
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 8: Where do we go from here?

785
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:45,400
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean, look, I saw this article earlier, and

786
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 19: that's certainly an important and early faction that supported Trump.

787
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,799
Speaker 19: But this is a huge coalition and it's a big tent.

788
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 19: I'm a big tent guy, and we all have to

789
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,799
Speaker 19: accommodate ourselves to the fact that we are in a

790
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:02,720
Speaker 19: big tent coalition and that consists of, you know, libertarians

791
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 19: and people who are very strongly opposed to the Iran

792
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 19: war and want to see us, from a foreign policy perspective,

793
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 19: retrench and retreat back into America. There are immigration hawks,

794
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 19: of which I count myself among.

795
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 1: There's the culture warriors.

796
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 19: You know, you have young people, old people, and there

797
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 19: are a lot of just diverging interests here and all

798
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 19: of us are in some sense subservient to the interest

799
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 19: and will of Donald Trump. He's the guy at the top,

800
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 19: He's the guy that calls the shots. And sometimes when

801
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 19: you're within that coalition, you're going to get a little

802
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:40,799
Speaker 19: bit of what you want, Sometimes you're going to get

803
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 19: a lot of what you want, and sometimes you're going

804
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 19: to have to compromise and give up on the things

805
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:48,399
Speaker 19: you want because other members of that coalition are going

806
00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 19: to win the argument on any given issue. And I think,

807
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 19: regardless of what's happened here, and I would really strongly

808
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 19: urge even those who are wrongly opposed to what's going

809
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 19: on Iran to consider that we'd be much worse off

810
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 19: if the Democrats win, We'd be much worse off if

811
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 19: Kamala Harris was president, and if the Republicans lose office

812
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 19: in the midterms. I don't believe in the acceleration thesis

813
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 19: at all, which is that you have to lose in

814
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 19: order to win at some point in the future. No,

815
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,760
Speaker 19: you win by winning, You win incrementally within that coalition.

816
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,480
Speaker 19: You make your argument, you try to win on the

817
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 19: issues that matter to you the most, and be willing

818
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:33,799
Speaker 19: to compromise elsewhere, and remember that your ego just isn't

819
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 19: very important in this equation.

820
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,799
Speaker 1: And so what I hope is as this starts to.

821
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 19: Die down, as it becomes a less salient centerpiece of

822
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 19: what's going on in the news every day, and it's

823
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 19: the thing you see when you scroll that will start

824
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 19: to coalesce around more shared objectives. We get back to

825
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 19: this domestic agenda that I was referencing earlier.

826
00:42:57,880 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: So that's my.

827
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,720
Speaker 19: Hope, that's what I think will have And I think

828
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 19: you know, members of this coalition are just going to

829
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 19: have to learn to get along.

830
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 16: So I'm hopeful that you're right, Jonathan, But I guess

831
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 16: I want to sound a note of concern, worry, caution.

832
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 16: First of all, I think you and I both know

833
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 16: this already was a super salient issue before the Iran

834
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:20,279
Speaker 16: War broke out.

835
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:21,360
Speaker 8: We've definitely got.

836
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 16: Voices that are all Israel all the time, all the

837
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,839
Speaker 16: Jews all the time, let's be frank. And on top

838
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 16: of that, it's also some of it's going to be

839
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,800
Speaker 16: difficult to walk back. We have people it wasn't just

840
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:35,879
Speaker 16: people opposed to the war. We had people.

841
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 8: Saying twenty fifth Amendment, use the twenty.

842
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,359
Speaker 16: Fifth Amendment, people saying there's our war crimes, we need

843
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 16: a Nuremberg. We have people honestly sounding very liberal in

844
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:49,440
Speaker 16: their overall statements, I guess, yeah, and they're saying we

845
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:54,439
Speaker 16: shouldn't be criticizing Islam or whatever. But last Levault, there's

846
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 16: a concern I'm seeing where I think there's a lot

847
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 16: of voices on the bigger right that you say, we

848
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 16: want to unite around these domestic goals, but a lot

849
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 16: of stuff is so not policy, not politically driven at

850
00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 16: all anymore. And that's something that really concerns me. It's

851
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 16: when they're very centered on maybe their latest outrage stuff,

852
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 16: but not as much on what are we actually doing

853
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 16: on immigration for example.

854
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 10: Yeah.

855
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,719
Speaker 19: Look, I don't want to sound too Pollyannas here, and

856
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 19: I recognize that some of this is sort of hopeful

857
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:31,560
Speaker 19: thinking and that there are real headwinds facing this coalition.

858
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,680
Speaker 19: And I think some of the impolitic and sort of

859
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,319
Speaker 19: imprudent things that people were saying online, well, a lot

860
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,920
Speaker 19: of that is just sort of siloed off in a

861
00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:44,799
Speaker 19: This is my view. Maybe I'm wrong about this, but

862
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 19: I some of this is just siloed off in the

863
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:51,280
Speaker 19: online mel you that we operate in and we're highly

864
00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 19: responsive to, but doesn't necessarily translate into broader conservative GOP politics.

865
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,320
Speaker 19: That's one, and I think two, you know, I'm operating

866
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,280
Speaker 19: under the asum, which is just I've seen over time

867
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 19: that people have incredibly short memories, and a lot of

868
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,480
Speaker 19: the people who are now in Trump's favor and are

869
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 19: directing policy decisions, you know, six years ago or ten

870
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 19: years ago or whenever it was, we're saying precisely the

871
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,800
Speaker 19: same things about Trump that some of his more recent

872
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,840
Speaker 19: allies are saying about him now with regards to Iran.

873
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,760
Speaker 19: So there's a lot of movement within the collisions. People

874
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 19: say things that are regrettable. I hope cooler heads will prevail.

875
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,600
Speaker 19: I think there is time to subtly sort of walk

876
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 19: back some of the inflammatory rhetoric that's been bandied about

877
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 19: online over the last several months with regards to Iran.

878
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 1: So, look, we have a long way to go.

879
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,560
Speaker 19: The midterms really haven't ramped up yet in terms of messaging.

880
00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 19: I think it's going to be really important for GOP

881
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:53,200
Speaker 19: strategists to take a very hard look of what's important

882
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 19: to this coalition, what can be the shared interests and

883
00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 19: just hammer that stuff over and over and over again

884
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,319
Speaker 19: and try to recreate the sort of enthusiasm that if

885
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:06,360
Speaker 19: people again people don't remember. I mean, it was in January,

886
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:08,920
Speaker 19: the State of the Union speech that was maybe the

887
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:10,600
Speaker 19: high water mark of this first term.

888
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: Everybody was really enthused.

889
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,640
Speaker 19: All of the right things were being said, there was

890
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 19: this sense of coming together over a shared domestic agenda.

891
00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 19: I really do think we can get back to that.

892
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 19: Maybe we lose some people, maybe this war and what's

893
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 19: gone on creates some attrition within the coalition, but I

894
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 19: don't think it has to be a fatal blow.

895
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 14: So Jonathan, can we keep you for a couple more minutes,

896
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:40,400
Speaker 14: do a little podcast exclusive here for Real America's voice

897
00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 14: Jonathan Keeperman, absolute amazing mind and thinker. We're going to

898
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 14: go over the break just a little bit, and then

899
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 14: at one we're expecting Caroline Levitt to start that press

900
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 14: conference going over what is the ten point plan that

901
00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 14: we're actually working from. So many questions that we want

902
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 14: to make sure we tune into that. So more with

903
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:01,319
Speaker 14: Jonathan Keeth for men in just a minute on the

904
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:02,640
Speaker 14: stream and on podcasts.

905
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 8: We'll see you at the start hour.

906
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:22,959
Speaker 18: Two Welcome back to this Real America's Voice news break.

907
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:24,239
Speaker 6: I'm Terrence Bates.

908
00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:27,719
Speaker 18: White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt set to hold her

909
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:31,080
Speaker 18: latest press briefing at any minute now. You're looking live

910
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 18: at the podium where she is set to speak. Here

911
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,120
Speaker 18: the press corps, as you can see, already in place

912
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:40,280
Speaker 18: in anticipating the Press Secretary's arrival. The two weeks ceasefire

913
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,840
Speaker 18: between the United States and Iran will likely dominate today's briefing.

914
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,800
Speaker 18: Before heading into the briefing room. Moments ago, our Brian

915
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:49,280
Speaker 18: Glenn filing this report.

916
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 11: Thanks Terrence.

917
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 8: Here shortly just moments away.

918
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:56,680
Speaker 11: Carol Levitt expected to address the media at one pm

919
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:59,200
Speaker 11: here local time. Now, this will be the first time

920
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,440
Speaker 11: we've officially heard from the Trump administration.

921
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:02,719
Speaker 17: Now.

922
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:07,280
Speaker 11: Earlier today we did have the press briefing at the Pentagon,

923
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,760
Speaker 11: but this will be the first time that Kevin Levitt

924
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 11: will step front on the podium taking questions. And then

925
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 11: this is in wake of that two week pause, that

926
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:20,680
Speaker 11: two week ceasefire the President Trump late yesterday announced that

927
00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:22,959
Speaker 11: he was going to do and of course I would

928
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 11: imagine a lot of the questions will be what does

929
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:30,520
Speaker 11: the ceasefire intel, what does this potential deal look like,

930
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:31,960
Speaker 11: what does life look.

931
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:33,840
Speaker 8: Like after the ceasefire?

932
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:36,120
Speaker 11: And a lot of conversations came up as far as

933
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 11: what our presence is in that region secure not only

934
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,880
Speaker 11: this straight but to make sure that that diplomacy and

935
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:48,680
Speaker 11: stability returns to Iran. And also the fact that Israel

936
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 11: continues to just late last night, really hammer Lebanon, and

937
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:59,280
Speaker 11: so be some questions. I've heard some speculation today about

938
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 11: what does that look like in terms of a ceasefire,

939
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,120
Speaker 11: and that's a part of it, and that will continue

940
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 11: to be something that.

941
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 8: Israel will obey.

942
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 11: But we've got all the details right here coming up

943
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 11: at one o'clock here local time, and we'll cut to

944
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 11: it as soon as Carolyn Levitt steps in front of

945
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 11: the microphone.

946
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:18,040
Speaker 18: Terrence, Again, that's Brian Glynn reporting just outside of the

947
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,279
Speaker 18: White House. He is now inside the White House in

948
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 18: that press briefing room as the briefing is expected to

949
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 18: get under way quite literally any minute. By the way,

950
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 18: there's also brand new reporting just out that Iran has

951
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:32,440
Speaker 18: now closed the Strait of Horror moves as a result

952
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:36,200
Speaker 18: of continued Israeli attacks on the Islamic regime. So that's

953
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:39,120
Speaker 18: also a storyline that we're expecting to be focused on

954
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:43,680
Speaker 18: during this upcoming press briefing involving Caroline Levitt. In the meantime,

955
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,680
Speaker 18: earlier this morning, the Pentagon sounding off about the ceasefire

956
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 18: agreement and what's next.

957
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 7: Iran's defeat is America's retribution for every American loss to

958
00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 7: Iranian terror, especially those break troops killed by Iranian made

959
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:06,800
Speaker 7: roadside bombs in Iraq that my generation knows so well,

960
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 7: and for the suffering their regime has inflicted around the world.

961
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,040
Speaker 7: Now we have a chance at real peace and a

962
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:17,960
Speaker 7: real deal. The War Department, for now, for now has

963
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,560
Speaker 7: done its part. We stand ready in the background to

964
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 7: ensure Iran upholds every reasonable term and as everyone knows,

965
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:30,600
Speaker 7: nobody makes a better deal than President Trump.

966
00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:32,800
Speaker 6: And a barrage of true social posts.

967
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 18: This morning, President Trump writing, a country slipping military weapons

968
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 18: to Iran will be immediately tariffed on any and all

969
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:44,280
Speaker 18: goods sold to the United States of America fifty percent

970
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:48,240
Speaker 18: effective immediately, and in a separate post forty seven, writing,

971
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,320
Speaker 18: the United States will work closely with Iran, which we

972
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:54,359
Speaker 18: have determined has gone through what will likely be a

973
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:58,680
Speaker 18: very productive regime change. US negotiators, by the way, set

974
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:02,439
Speaker 18: to meet with officials from A on Friday in Pakistan.

975
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:03,720
Speaker 6: In order to continue talks.

976
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:08,760
Speaker 18: President Trump celebrating another election victory this morning after Clayton

977
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:12,320
Speaker 18: Fuller wrote his Trump endorsement to victory in Georgie's fourteenth

978
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:17,839
Speaker 18: Congressional District special election. As expected, Fuller won in a landslide,

979
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:21,440
Speaker 18: beating Democrat Sean Harris with more than fifty seven percent

980
00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 18: of the vote. Fuller will fill Marjorie Taylor Green's remaining

981
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,880
Speaker 18: term in the US House. The traditionally Republican Northwest Georgia

982
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:33,480
Speaker 18: district returns another much needed vote to the GOP's narrow

983
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 18: majority in the House. Despite the winning Georgia, though, House

984
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:41,000
Speaker 18: Republicans can only afford two defections on party line votes,

985
00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 18: assuming that all members are president and voting. Fuller can't

986
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,879
Speaker 18: be too comfortable in that seat, though, as Georgia will

987
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 18: hold another primary for the seat on May nineteenth. Candidates

988
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:55,359
Speaker 18: looking to fill the full two term two year term

989
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 18: excuse me, will be part of that primary. Well, that's

990
00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 18: going to do a your headlines. As always, we appreciate

991
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 18: having you along for the ride.

992
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:02,879
Speaker 6: Again.

993
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 18: At the top of the hour of the moment at

994
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:07,560
Speaker 18: this point that Caroline Levitt takes the podium in the

995
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:09,040
Speaker 18: White House will take you their lives.

996
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:09,800
Speaker 6: Stay tuned for you.

997
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 8: All right, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show.

998
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:29,480
Speaker 14: We are awaiting the start of the White House press conference.

999
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 14: This we don't take all of them on the show,

1000
00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 14: but I think today is a truly important day because

1001
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:40,040
Speaker 14: we're gonna define, We're gonna hopefully learn what the White

1002
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 14: House is defining as victory. Again, you can have war

1003
00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:46,319
Speaker 14: in the modern era where it doesn't it's not as

1004
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 14: clear as like you know, you know, World War two,

1005
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 14: right or Civil War. We're used to these grandiose celebrations,

1006
00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:58,360
Speaker 14: the theatrics of you know, signing a surrender that doesn't

1007
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 14: happen in modern warfare near much. Obviously, we saw it

1008
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 14: in Venezuela where Maduro was captured and taken back.

1009
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 8: I mean that was fairly clear cut.

1010
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:07,600
Speaker 14: But it's not always clear cut, and so you have

1011
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,360
Speaker 14: to define your objectives and you have to then you know,

1012
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,360
Speaker 14: get press conferences up and running into clear victory. This

1013
00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:17,400
Speaker 14: is why I think hegseth you saw him out this

1014
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,440
Speaker 14: morning and explaining why he defines this as a victory.

1015
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:22,920
Speaker 14: And obviously this is part of the pr spin both sides.

1016
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 14: I listen, I think, again to Blake's earlier point nur one,

1017
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,960
Speaker 14: we may not see this ceasefire even hold through the

1018
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:33,440
Speaker 14: end of the show. But I think that given the

1019
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:36,439
Speaker 14: calculus of a current moment, I think the administration would

1020
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:41,399
Speaker 14: be loath to reignite hostilities kinetic operations because I think

1021
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,759
Speaker 14: there is an understanding that Iran is really willing to

1022
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:47,799
Speaker 14: sort of wait out and take the barrage, take the punishment.

1023
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,160
Speaker 14: But here's Pete hegseth st three.

1024
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:55,719
Speaker 7: Iran begged for this ceasefire, and we all know it.

1025
00:53:56,360 --> 00:54:01,759
Speaker 7: Operation Epic Fury was a historic and overwhelming victory on

1026
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:06,800
Speaker 7: the battlefield, a capital v military victory.

1027
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,520
Speaker 14: It was a little bit of defining though military victory.

1028
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,360
Speaker 14: He didn't say it was a political victory. It's not

1029
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,919
Speaker 14: regime change. I think what is going to be very

1030
00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:19,040
Speaker 14: interesting in this press conference as a way that you

1031
00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:21,000
Speaker 14: can see that in the bottom of your screen, it's

1032
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:23,960
Speaker 14: going to be very interesting to see what happens specifically

1033
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 14: with nuclear right nuclear is I think if we can

1034
00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:31,799
Speaker 14: get that chess piece off the board, we can I

1035
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:35,600
Speaker 14: think objectively declare some semblance of a victory and say, listen,

1036
00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 14: maybe the strait is it cleared out.

1037
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 8: Maybe we didn't get regime change.

1038
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:41,719
Speaker 14: Maybe we remove sanctions and they are going to get

1039
00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:44,840
Speaker 14: more money flowing into the Iranian regime. But the aetola

1040
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:48,600
Speaker 14: is gone, most of their main leadership is gone. Maybe

1041
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:51,799
Speaker 14: we'll have to lomaz this point in the previous hour.

1042
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:56,360
Speaker 14: We're going to establish regular relations, normalize relations with whatever

1043
00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,319
Speaker 14: is left intact in Iran. And that's not a bad thing,

1044
00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 14: all right. So I think I'm waiting for clarity. I

1045
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:05,080
Speaker 14: think the world is waiting for clarity. I don't know, Blake,

1046
00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:07,560
Speaker 14: what are you hoping to see because sometimes these press

1047
00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:09,120
Speaker 14: conferences you don't get much specific.

1048
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:10,560
Speaker 8: I think today's going to be a bit different.

1049
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,160
Speaker 16: Well, yeah, I think, as you say, we're going to

1050
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:16,480
Speaker 16: see them define not just what victory is, but hopefully

1051
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:20,920
Speaker 16: set terms for the ceasefire that can hold.

1052
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:22,200
Speaker 8: I think they're probably going to get.

1053
00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:27,280
Speaker 16: Grilled over strikes still happening, over that disagreement over Lebanon,

1054
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 16: and that's probably going to be the most difficult answer

1055
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 16: they can give, because that's going to be what people

1056
00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:36,160
Speaker 16: on to break the ceasefire wide open again. We'll probably

1057
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:39,279
Speaker 16: also have to see how aggressive their posture is on

1058
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:42,040
Speaker 16: if the ceasefire starts breaking down, are they ready to

1059
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:45,040
Speaker 16: fully resume everything. Are we back to the threats or

1060
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:48,319
Speaker 16: do we think Trump is seizing an off ramp aggressively

1061
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:51,960
Speaker 16: where if the ceasefire starts going south, he's still not

1062
00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:56,719
Speaker 16: inclined to raise back up all of America's military operations.

1063
00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:00,640
Speaker 14: Yeah, I mean we know already reporting is that Israel,

1064
00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:03,759
Speaker 14: the leadership of Israel, is not happy with this ceasefire.

1065
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 14: They very much want to be able to continue operations

1066
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 14: in southern Lebanon to take out Hesbelah. I think it's

1067
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:12,360
Speaker 14: also a like I mentioned before, it's a clear indication

1068
00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:15,800
Speaker 14: that Iran sees Hesbela as an extension of the regime.

1069
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,080
Speaker 14: So you know, if there was any doubt, let there

1070
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:21,400
Speaker 14: be no doubt that Hesbela is an extension of the

1071
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 14: regime in Lebanon. And Israel is not happy with this,

1072
00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:26,960
Speaker 14: but they're kind of Trump's got them cornered a little bit.

1073
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:29,200
Speaker 14: So I think that's going to be another question here

1074
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:31,719
Speaker 14: that Caroline Levit's going to have to navigate.

1075
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:33,520
Speaker 8: What are you going to do with Israel?

1076
00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:36,600
Speaker 14: Israel is a X factor question mark on the board.

1077
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:39,800
Speaker 14: Obviously their proximity to Iran is much closer than our own,

1078
00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:43,439
Speaker 14: so that they want to see this regime toppled. There's

1079
00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:47,799
Speaker 14: no doubt in anybody's mind really, So we'll see how

1080
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:50,640
Speaker 14: she handles that. But again, questions on the board nuclear

1081
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:54,400
Speaker 14: straight o' her moves hesbela, can this cease fire hold?

1082
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 14: Is Jade Vance going to be present in Islamabad for

1083
00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:03,080
Speaker 14: the Friday? Pace still negotiations or is there some security concern?

1084
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 14: What is the security concern? So there's a thousand questions

1085
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:09,759
Speaker 14: that she's going to be confronted with, and maybe it

1086
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:13,320
Speaker 14: will be a grilling, But I think I'm most curious

1087
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,400
Speaker 14: to see what is the ten point plan? Are we

1088
00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:17,720
Speaker 14: going to get any clarity on the ten point plan?

1089
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:19,600
Speaker 14: The White House has already said it's a different ten

1090
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 14: point plan than has been reported and circulated.

1091
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,520
Speaker 16: Is funny, health, I don't think there's been any public

1092
00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:29,520
Speaker 16: versions of the ten point plan. Yeah's all different places

1093
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:31,840
Speaker 16: reporting online versions.

1094
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,120
Speaker 14: I think that's why President Trump issued that truth today

1095
00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:37,400
Speaker 14: saying that they're all fake basically, So take it all

1096
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 14: with a grain of salt, keep your wits about you.

1097
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:43,200
Speaker 14: This is all a litmus test all right, this is

1098
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:46,640
Speaker 14: all litmus test. Are you going to catastrophize, are you

1099
00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,800
Speaker 14: going to doom and gloom? Or are you going to

1100
00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:51,240
Speaker 14: keep your wits about you. I'm very proud of us

1101
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,040
Speaker 14: on the show that we've kept our wits about us

1102
00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:55,160
Speaker 14: and we're colling balls and strikes.

1103
00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:57,720
Speaker 8: We're not rushing into war. We certainly are glad that this.

1104
00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:01,960
Speaker 14: One could be on the precipice, on the threshold of

1105
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:03,480
Speaker 14: being over. I think that's a good thing and we

1106
00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:07,080
Speaker 14: should celebrate that. But it is fragile. It is very fragile,

1107
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,040
Speaker 14: and we've got to see right now the strait is

1108
00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:09,880
Speaker 14: essentially halted.

1109
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 8: It's closed.

1110
00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,840
Speaker 14: So is there going to be immediate action taken by

1111
00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:15,520
Speaker 14: the administration to get that reopened.

1112
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:17,360
Speaker 8: We don't know.

1113
00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:19,600
Speaker 14: And I think it's also very telling here we are.

1114
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 14: This was supposed to start at ten well one pm Eastern,

1115
00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:27,440
Speaker 14: this press conference, and we're already at one twelve pm Eastern,

1116
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 14: so it's.

1117
00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:29,480
Speaker 8: Already been delayed a bit.

1118
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 14: We kept this segment open for this press conference today

1119
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:37,160
Speaker 14: and it's delayed, which means there this is a very

1120
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:41,040
Speaker 14: active and moving situation, and I bet we're working with

1121
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:43,120
Speaker 14: wet cement here wet.

1122
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:45,520
Speaker 16: Cement indeed, yeah, and then how quickly does it dry?

1123
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:48,480
Speaker 16: But yeah, did you ever did you ever read Hittriker's

1124
00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:51,880
Speaker 16: Guide to the Galaxy? No, it's I don't know if

1125
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 16: it Maybe it would age badly, it might not be

1126
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:54,240
Speaker 16: funny anymore.

1127
00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:56,160
Speaker 8: It's, uh, it's funny.

1128
00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 16: Watch them.

1129
00:58:56,920 --> 00:58:59,520
Speaker 8: I watched them. Well, well, I'm just with the blackpilling thing.

1130
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,440
Speaker 16: I just the thing you'll remember is that the Hitchhiker's

1131
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,080
Speaker 16: Guide of the of the title, it's this book, and

1132
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:07,200
Speaker 16: it just says on the cover, don't panic.

1133
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:10,000
Speaker 8: And I think that would be good to have on

1134
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:11,880
Speaker 8: a lot of things in the right.

1135
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:14,240
Speaker 16: Maybe we could add it to these pocket constitutions that

1136
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:14,440
Speaker 16: we have.

1137
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:17,200
Speaker 8: Just put don't panic on the particle one, section one.

1138
00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:19,720
Speaker 14: Just to give you a quick market update, though, oil

1139
00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:21,800
Speaker 14: is down eighteen dollars a barrel.

1140
00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:24,960
Speaker 8: It came down at about I think it was about

1141
00:59:24,960 --> 00:59:25,360
Speaker 8: one ten.

1142
00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 14: It settled yesterday, so it's at ninety four dollars a barrel.

1143
00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:32,160
Speaker 14: It's down sixteen percent, which is good news.

1144
00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:33,760
Speaker 8: And then the.

1145
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:37,280
Speaker 14: Markets are surged twelve hundred points. The Dow is up

1146
00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:40,000
Speaker 14: twelve hundred s and P five hundred is up two

1147
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:42,080
Speaker 14: and a half points, up one hundred and sixty seven,

1148
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:45,720
Speaker 14: and the Nasdaq is up three points at six hundred

1149
00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 14: and seventy points.

1150
00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:48,080
Speaker 8: So the markets like what.

1151
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:53,200
Speaker 14: They're hearing, despite some of the uncertainty, despite the fragile,

1152
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,080
Speaker 14: very fragile piece that we've reached.

1153
00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:57,280
Speaker 8: Let's hope that it continues on.

1154
00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:00,360
Speaker 14: Let's hope that Caroline Levitt has some updates for that

1155
01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:04,080
Speaker 14: will lead us to have additional reason for optimism.

1156
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:08,040
Speaker 8: But right now, I think, right now.

1157
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:10,720
Speaker 14: I think a lot of the calls yesterday for the

1158
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 14: twenty fifth Amendment, a bunch of Democrats got together. What

1159
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 14: did the number get up to, like seventy eighty Democrats

1160
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:18,160
Speaker 14: calling for President Trump's impeachment.

1161
01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:22,200
Speaker 8: A lot of that has settled, and today is a

1162
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 8: new day.

1163
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:28,600
Speaker 14: So I'm very very interested to see what is revealed

1164
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:30,120
Speaker 14: in this press conference. I'm going to tell you guys

1165
01:00:30,160 --> 01:00:34,920
Speaker 14: about Hillsdale College. It's America's greatest college. We love partnering

1166
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:38,960
Speaker 14: with them. Hillsdale College was Charlie's favorite college. The Beacon

1167
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:41,640
Speaker 14: of the North, he called it. And Charlie understood. He

1168
01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:47,080
Speaker 14: didn't chase diplomas, he didn't chase the titles. What he

1169
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:50,160
Speaker 14: chased was learning, and you can do that through Hillsdale

1170
01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:53,080
Speaker 14: on their online courses that offer over forty of them,

1171
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:55,720
Speaker 14: and it's a truly amazing resource.

1172
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:02,240
Speaker 8: Is it starting? No? Okay, nope, never mind. Miss.

1173
01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:04,919
Speaker 16: We did get an email from someone who says the

1174
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,880
Speaker 16: press conference is always delayed. Do your homework. I feel

1175
01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:10,520
Speaker 16: a bit seen, I feel a bit called out. I

1176
01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:12,560
Speaker 16: think I think he is correct. They usually are not

1177
01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:13,400
Speaker 16: quite on time.

1178
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:14,440
Speaker 8: I don't know.

1179
01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:17,120
Speaker 14: So one of the frustrations with the show is that

1180
01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 14: Caroline Lovett always does her press conferences during our show.

1181
01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:23,720
Speaker 14: So I'm I'm I'm pretty on to the timing of

1182
01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:25,440
Speaker 14: many of these press conferences and they usually have it

1183
01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:26,120
Speaker 14: started by now.

1184
01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:26,720
Speaker 8: All right.

1185
01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:29,880
Speaker 14: So one of the courses Charlie took was the Genesis

1186
01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:33,240
Speaker 14: Course tot by Hillsdale professor doctor Justin Jackson. It's a

1187
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 14: free online course that explores our relationship with the Lord,

1188
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:39,880
Speaker 14: what happens when that relationship severed, and how to lead

1189
01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:43,640
Speaker 14: to reconciliation. It's a rigorous, real course and it's free

1190
01:01:43,680 --> 01:01:46,640
Speaker 14: to anybody willing to learn. Are you that person? If

1225
01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:37,960
Speaker 14: This press conference to get started, it's important to realize

1226
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:40,640
Speaker 14: what some of the rhinos in the House tried to

1227
01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:42,880
Speaker 14: do while we were all distracted by the war. Well,

1228
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:45,600
Speaker 14: we weren't so distracted that we didn't notice. We had

1229
01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:48,439
Speaker 14: Nick Sorder on yesterday talking about it, and that's when

1230
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:51,280
Speaker 14: I discovered that it wasn't, in fact, called the Dignity Act.

1231
01:03:51,800 --> 01:03:54,840
Speaker 8: It's called the Dignity God Act.

1232
01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:58,760
Speaker 14: They had the audacity, the shamelessness to put a Spanish

1233
01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 14: word on an amnesty bill while we are all distracted

1234
01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 14: with Iran.

1235
01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:06,959
Speaker 8: Let's hear Rep. Maria Salazar in her own words.

1236
01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:09,760
Speaker 1: Twelve we give them dignity.

1237
01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 3: At some point in the future, another legislator will write

1238
01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:16,240
Speaker 3: another law to give them paths to citizenship.

1239
01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:18,080
Speaker 1: Right now, what we need to do.

1240
01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:21,320
Speaker 3: Is to buy peace for these people, allow them to stay,

1241
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:23,840
Speaker 3: to continue working because they are needed.

1242
01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:26,520
Speaker 8: It's just insane.

1243
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:30,320
Speaker 16: It's we actually want an election on saying we're going

1244
01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:33,440
Speaker 16: to enforce the border, we're going to do deportations, and

1245
01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 16: every single time Congress comes up there like cockroaches or something,

1246
01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:39,960
Speaker 16: and they just come out and say, actually, what the

1247
01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 16: people wanted was mass amnesty.

1248
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's the exact opposite.

1249
01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:46,919
Speaker 14: And what I've realized from this is that there will

1250
01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:49,120
Speaker 14: always be a push. It doesn't matter how much the

1251
01:04:49,160 --> 01:04:53,480
Speaker 14: base wants, the moneyed interest in ag, hospitality, other sectors

1252
01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:58,360
Speaker 14: are going to continue pushing for amnesty because they want

1253
01:04:58,480 --> 01:04:59,120
Speaker 14: cheap labor.

1254
01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:01,800
Speaker 16: You literally, you just have to learn to tune them out.

1255
01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:03,720
Speaker 16: You just like they're going to say it. No matter what,

1256
01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:05,680
Speaker 16: they will always say it. So you just have to

1257
01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:07,640
Speaker 16: ignore them. You have to say thanks, you say that

1258
01:05:07,720 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 16: every time.

1259
01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:09,479
Speaker 8: We're ignoring it. So Rep.

1260
01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:13,880
Speaker 14: Maria Alvira Salazar, who should be primary by the way,

1261
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 14: like this woman, I don't care who endorsed her.

1262
01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:18,000
Speaker 8: Okay, I guess she's got a Trump. I don't care.

1263
01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:23,560
Speaker 14: She needs to be primaried because you cannot represent the

1264
01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:27,200
Speaker 14: grassroots and the movement of the Republican Party if you're

1265
01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:30,880
Speaker 14: going to continue pushing garbage amnesty and try and you know,

1266
01:05:31,120 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 14: to quote Ron decantists, don't pee on my leg and

1267
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:37,640
Speaker 14: tell me it's raining. That's exactly what's happening here. Brandon Gill,

1268
01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,880
Speaker 14: who's gonna come on the show tomorrow, said this is

1269
01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:43,040
Speaker 14: an amnesty bill. She fires back said, read the bill

1270
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:46,520
Speaker 14: before you open your mouth. Calling the Dignity Act amnesty

1271
01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:49,960
Speaker 14: isn't just wrong, it's a deliberate distortion. No, what you're

1272
01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:52,720
Speaker 14: trying to do, Calling it the Dignity Act is a

1273
01:05:52,760 --> 01:05:54,919
Speaker 14: deliberate distortion of an amnesty bill.

1274
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:56,120
Speaker 8: And I love that.

1275
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:58,520
Speaker 14: There's a community note on her x feed here. It

1276
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:02,640
Speaker 14: says it grants amnesty, permanent residency DREAMAG, deferred action in

1277
01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:06,840
Speaker 14: legal status, dignity program, halts deportations, wipes three to ten

1278
01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 14: year bands, creates inspected and admitted loopholes, grants Attorney General

1279
01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:15,240
Speaker 14: power to terminate deportation for family hardship. Are you kidding

1280
01:06:15,320 --> 01:06:17,880
Speaker 14: who they're all gonna claim cardship family?

1281
01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:22,000
Speaker 16: Yeah, they're always You can't really give in these flexible

1282
01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:25,040
Speaker 16: definitions of things. We've seen that with asylum. We've seen

1283
01:06:25,040 --> 01:06:26,360
Speaker 16: this with refugee status.

1284
01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:26,960
Speaker 8: We see it.

1285
01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:29,080
Speaker 16: I mean that's also how all the fraud that works

1286
01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:32,280
Speaker 16: in all these blue states. You create a vague category

1287
01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 16: that everyone can claim, and if it's not really aggressively enforced,

1288
01:06:36,600 --> 01:06:38,800
Speaker 16: it quickly breaks down. And we know it won't be

1289
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:41,640
Speaker 16: You have these immigration judges, and if you install a

1290
01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:45,160
Speaker 16: sympathetic actor, you basically have the inmates running the asylum.

1291
01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:46,840
Speaker 16: Everyone's able to claim the benefit.

1292
01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:47,160
Speaker 8: Get this.

1293
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:52,360
Speaker 14: It allows every illegal alien deported by Trump since January

1294
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:55,920
Speaker 14: twenty seventeen to return to the USA. They can apply

1295
01:06:56,000 --> 01:07:00,600
Speaker 14: for their new dignity status Digny DODD from their home

1296
01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:05,480
Speaker 14: country and then return to the USA. It also ups

1297
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:09,640
Speaker 14: caps on certain immigration visas it so it increases our immigration.

1298
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:14,320
Speaker 14: Then it provides funding to lawyers that are going to

1299
01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:16,840
Speaker 14: argue on behalf of these illegals to get back into

1300
01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:22,000
Speaker 14: the country. This is a this behavior betrayal of the

1301
01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:25,000
Speaker 14: American voters. Get this woman out of my party. And

1302
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:27,720
Speaker 14: by the way, I'm gonna have Rich Barris joined maybe

1303
01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:31,000
Speaker 14: tomorrow if he's available, because he's got a backstory on

1304
01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:35,200
Speaker 14: some of this polling that's being circulated around the administration

1305
01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:40,600
Speaker 14: that is warning them against using the words mass deportation.

1306
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:43,280
Speaker 14: I want to hear your your thoughts. Send us an

1307
01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:45,640
Speaker 14: email Freedom at Charlie Kirk right now. Do you like

1308
01:07:45,760 --> 01:07:47,320
Speaker 14: the term mass deportation?

1309
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:48,200
Speaker 8: Do you not like it?

1310
01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:51,000
Speaker 14: Do you understand the rationale behind maybe not using it

1311
01:07:51,040 --> 01:07:53,800
Speaker 14: as much? Okay, I want to hear all your viewpoints.

1312
01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:56,160
Speaker 14: Do you think it's bad PR? Listen, there is an

1313
01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:57,640
Speaker 14: argument to be made that we lost some of the

1314
01:07:57,640 --> 01:08:01,800
Speaker 14: PR wars right mass on on ice agents, that's one

1315
01:08:01,840 --> 01:08:04,240
Speaker 14: of the things that I've heard actually does pull very badly.

1316
01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:06,479
Speaker 8: Okay, well, like.

1317
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:08,960
Speaker 14: Maybe there's some room to maneuver here, but you are

1318
01:08:08,960 --> 01:08:12,480
Speaker 14: not going to convince me that mass deportations and the

1319
01:08:12,520 --> 01:08:16,720
Speaker 14: reclaiming of American culture and sovereignty is not popular across

1320
01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:19,000
Speaker 14: the board. It is one of the issues that has

1321
01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 14: been I think under valued, underappreciated the most in American

1322
01:08:24,560 --> 01:08:28,000
Speaker 14: politics since Trump came down the Golden escalator. He saw it,

1323
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:30,680
Speaker 14: he called it out, and it will and Caroline just

1324
01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:33,320
Speaker 14: walked out. And Trump deserves a massive amount of credit

1325
01:08:33,360 --> 01:08:36,320
Speaker 14: for changing the discourse on that topic alone. And we're

1326
01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,160
Speaker 14: gonna die on that hill. That's the hill you die on.

1327
01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,800
Speaker 14: It's mass deportations in our sovereignty. Let's go ahead and

1328
01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:43,400
Speaker 14: take the Caroline Levitt press conference.

1329
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:47,880
Speaker 20: Legislation that First Lady Milania Trump played an instrumental role

1330
01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:52,360
Speaker 20: in getting past that protects victims from non consensual AI

1331
01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:56,280
Speaker 20: generated sexually explicit images, cyber stalking.

1332
01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:57,360
Speaker 10: And threats of violence.

1333
01:08:57,640 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 20: This is a huge achievement for the First Lady, and

1334
01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:02,439
Speaker 20: I know the President is very proud of his wife's

1335
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:06,040
Speaker 20: efforts in getting this critical legislation passed to protect America's youth.

1336
01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:08,559
Speaker 20: So we thank the First Lady for her efforts, and

1337
01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:12,760
Speaker 20: we hope that others will report on this historic conviction yesterday.

1338
01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:15,800
Speaker 20: With respect to the two week cease fire announced by

1339
01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:18,640
Speaker 20: President Trump last night, this is a victory for the

1340
01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:22,400
Speaker 20: United States of America that the presidents in our incredible

1341
01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:27,400
Speaker 20: military made happen. From the very beginning of Operation Epic Fury,

1342
01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:30,559
Speaker 20: President Trump stated this would be a four to six

1343
01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:35,080
Speaker 20: week military operation to dismantle the military threat posed by

1344
01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:41,040
Speaker 20: the radical Islamic Iranian regime. Thanks to the unbelievable capabilities

1345
01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:44,400
Speaker 20: of America's war fighters, the United States has achieved and

1346
01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:49,440
Speaker 20: exceeded those core military objectives in just thirty eight days,

1347
01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:54,439
Speaker 20: the US military destroyed Iran's defense industrial base, crushing the

1348
01:09:54,479 --> 01:09:58,640
Speaker 20: regime's ability to manufacture weapons that they and their proxies

1349
01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,360
Speaker 20: used to maim and kill Americans.

1350
01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:02,280
Speaker 10: And terrorize the world.

1351
01:10:02,880 --> 01:10:06,240
Speaker 20: Iran's ability to build in stockpile ballistic missiles and long

1352
01:10:06,320 --> 01:10:09,960
Speaker 20: range drones has also been set back by years compared

1353
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:12,240
Speaker 20: to where it was six weeks ago. Prior to the

1354
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:16,759
Speaker 20: launch of Operation Epic Fury. We destroyed the vast majority

1355
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:21,000
Speaker 20: of Iran's ballistic missiles, launcher vehicles, and long range attack drones.

1356
01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:24,679
Speaker 20: Through more than four hundred and fifty strikes on ballistic

1357
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:29,040
Speaker 20: missiles and approximately eight hundred strikes on Iran's drone launching

1358
01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:34,000
Speaker 20: units and storage facilities. In total, more than thirteen thousand

1359
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:36,080
Speaker 20: targets across Iran were struck.

1360
01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:39,839
Speaker 10: Again. This is in the matter of just thirty eight days.

1361
01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:45,799
Speaker 20: Meanwhile, the Iranian navy was completely annihilated. The United States

1362
01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:49,240
Speaker 20: destroyed more than one hundred and fifty naval vessels in total,

1363
01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:55,280
Speaker 20: including sixteen entire classes of Iranian warships. Despite once being

1364
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:58,880
Speaker 20: the largest undersea force in the Middle East, Iran now

1365
01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:04,360
Speaker 20: has zero submarine vessels. Ninety seven percent of Iran's once

1366
01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:08,160
Speaker 20: massive inventory of more than five thousand naval mines has

1367
01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:12,520
Speaker 20: also been targeted and destroyed. Iran's air forces are functionally

1368
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:16,320
Speaker 20: and operationally irrelevant at this point, after the United States

1369
01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:20,400
Speaker 20: maintained total air dominance over their country for weeks on end.

1370
01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:24,679
Speaker 20: To underscore the significance of this, before Operation Epic Fury,

1371
01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:28,439
Speaker 20: the Iranian Naval Air Force would fly between thirty to

1372
01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:32,960
Speaker 20: one hundred flights per day. Today that number is zero.

1373
01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:36,400
Speaker 20: Iran's ability to fund and support its terrace proxies has

1374
01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:40,080
Speaker 20: been greatly reduced. At this point, Iran can no longer

1375
01:11:40,120 --> 01:11:44,480
Speaker 20: distribute weapons to its proxies in the region, and most importantly,

1376
01:11:44,640 --> 01:11:48,759
Speaker 20: Iran will not be able to acquire nuclear weapons. Prior

1377
01:11:48,800 --> 01:11:52,480
Speaker 20: to the start of this successful operation, Iran was aggressively

1378
01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:56,679
Speaker 20: expanding its short range ballistic missile arsenal. Through these weapons

1379
01:11:56,720 --> 01:11:59,959
Speaker 20: and its navy, Iran was attempting to build a military

1380
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,799
Speaker 20: build up around their country that would pose an imminent

1381
01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:06,120
Speaker 20: and existential threat to the United States military assets in

1382
01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:09,320
Speaker 20: the Middle East, our allies in the region, and ultimately

1383
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:13,639
Speaker 20: the free world. Iran was pursuing this dangerous and aggressive

1384
01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:17,280
Speaker 20: strategy for one reason, to hold the entire world hostage

1385
01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:21,240
Speaker 20: to its terrorist ambitions. The Iranians aim to use their

1386
01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:25,040
Speaker 20: expanded military capabilities as a shields around their country to

1387
01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:29,960
Speaker 20: continue achieving their ultimate goal internally building nuclear bombs. But

1388
01:12:30,040 --> 01:12:33,000
Speaker 20: their murderous and evil plans have been blown up quite

1389
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:37,519
Speaker 20: literally and figuratively. Along with their military, their nuclear program,

1390
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:40,880
Speaker 20: and most of their senior leadership, including the former Supreme

1391
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:43,120
Speaker 20: Leader Ayatola A La Camani.

1392
01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:46,080
Speaker 10: Their command and control structures.

1393
01:12:45,600 --> 01:12:49,280
Speaker 20: Were also massively disrupted after being struck more than two

1394
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:53,000
Speaker 20: thousand times. Many of their remaining leaders are paralyzed in

1395
01:12:53,080 --> 01:12:55,960
Speaker 20: fear and no longer enjoy the freedom to move around

1396
01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:58,120
Speaker 20: their country freely and meet openly.

1397
01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:00,280
Speaker 10: Thanks to the unmatched.

1398
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:02,799
Speaker 20: Excellence of our warriors at the direction of the Commander

1399
01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 20: in Chief, the world has just witnessed a historically swift

1400
01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:11,519
Speaker 20: and successful military triumph. President Trump started Operation Epic Fury

1401
01:13:11,520 --> 01:13:15,320
Speaker 20: with strategic military objectives in the United States has clearly

1402
01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 20: achieved them. As we mark this progress, we also remember

1403
01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:22,559
Speaker 20: and honor the thirteen American heroes who laid down their

1404
01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:26,080
Speaker 20: lives in this noble effort. I know President Trump, in

1405
01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:29,679
Speaker 20: our grateful nation honors their ultimate sacrifice, and we will

1406
01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:32,200
Speaker 20: never forget them, May God bless their families.

1407
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:34,280
Speaker 10: The val valiant.

1408
01:13:33,880 --> 01:13:37,600
Speaker 20: Efforts of all of our incredible service members created maximum

1409
01:13:37,720 --> 01:13:40,840
Speaker 20: leverage for the President of the United States, allowing he

1410
01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:45,080
Speaker 20: and his leadership team to engage in tough negotiations over

1411
01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:47,360
Speaker 20: the past couple of weeks that have now created an

1412
01:13:47,439 --> 01:13:51,040
Speaker 20: opening for a diplomatic solution in long term peace in

1413
01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:54,519
Speaker 20: the Middle East. The President's maximum pressure and the leverage

1414
01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:57,960
Speaker 20: created by the success of Operation Epic Fury led to

1415
01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:01,960
Speaker 20: the Iranian regime asking for an ultimately agreeing to a

1416
01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:06,000
Speaker 20: ceasefire proposal with the United States. Iran could no longer

1417
01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:09,080
Speaker 20: tolerate being bombed or taking the gamble of what was

1418
01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:12,960
Speaker 20: to come. Following President Trump's eight pm deadline last night,

1419
01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:15,960
Speaker 20: Iran has agreed to open the strait of her moose,

1420
01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:18,680
Speaker 20: and as the President said, we have received a proposal

1421
01:14:19,040 --> 01:14:21,240
Speaker 20: from the Iranians that has been determined to be a

1422
01:14:21,320 --> 01:14:24,960
Speaker 20: workable basis on which to negotiate. I've seen a lot

1423
01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:28,360
Speaker 20: of inaccurate coverage today from the media about these negotiations

1424
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:31,320
Speaker 20: and these plans already, so let me be clear and

1425
01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:34,720
Speaker 20: correct the record. The Iranians originally put forward a ten

1426
01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:40,000
Speaker 20: point plan that was fundamentally unserious, unacceptable, and completely discarded.

1427
01:14:40,080 --> 01:14:43,400
Speaker 20: It was literally thrown in the garbage by President Trump

1428
01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:46,840
Speaker 20: and his negotiating team. Many outlets in this room have

1429
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:50,120
Speaker 20: falsely reported on that plan as being acceptable to the

1430
01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:52,160
Speaker 20: United States, and that is false.

1431
01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:54,840
Speaker 10: With the President's deadline fast approaching in.

1432
01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:58,679
Speaker 20: The United States military completely decimating Iran with each passing hour,

1433
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:01,240
Speaker 20: the regime ignored knowledged reality.

1434
01:15:00,880 --> 01:15:02,080
Speaker 10: To the negotiating team.

1435
01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:05,680
Speaker 20: They put forward a more reasonable and entirely different and

1436
01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:09,799
Speaker 20: condensed plan to the President and his team. President Trump

1437
01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:12,400
Speaker 20: and the team determined the new modified plan was a

1438
01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:15,920
Speaker 20: workable basis on which to negotiate and to align it

1439
01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:20,360
Speaker 20: with our own fifteen point proposal. The President's red lines,

1440
01:15:20,439 --> 01:15:25,400
Speaker 20: namely the end of Iranian enrichment in Iran, have not changed,

1441
01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:28,680
Speaker 20: and the idea that President Trump would ever accept an

1442
01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:30,240
Speaker 20: Iranian wish list as a.

1443
01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:32,160
Speaker 10: Deal is completely absurd.

1444
01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:34,880
Speaker 20: The President will only make a deal that serves in

1445
01:15:34,920 --> 01:15:37,640
Speaker 20: the best interests of the United States of America, and

1446
01:15:37,680 --> 01:15:40,320
Speaker 20: he is a negotiating team will focus on this effort

1447
01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:42,840
Speaker 20: over the next two weeks so long as the strait

1448
01:15:42,880 --> 01:15:46,639
Speaker 20: of her moose remains open with no limitations or delays.

1449
01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:51,639
Speaker 20: These extraordinarily sensitive and complex negotiations will take place behind

1450
01:15:51,680 --> 01:15:54,040
Speaker 20: closed doors over the course of the next two weeks.

1451
01:15:54,400 --> 01:15:57,439
Speaker 20: I would strongly advise the media against running with narratives

1452
01:15:57,439 --> 01:15:58,800
Speaker 20: that have no basis in the.

1453
01:16:09,120 --> 01:16:13,880
Speaker 1: Next Great Awakening. It's here, Welcome back to the Charlie

01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:08,160
Speaker 8: Let's go ahead and take that presser once again.

1472
01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:11,679
Speaker 20: The nuclear bomb inside their country is no longer going

1473
01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:13,840
Speaker 20: to be allowed, can no longer happen. Thanks to the

1474
01:17:13,880 --> 01:17:17,120
Speaker 20: remarkable success of Operation Epic Fury over the course of

1475
01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:20,400
Speaker 20: the last thirty eight days, that has been absolutely achieved.

1476
01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:22,240
Speaker 20: And now we're moving into the next phase of this,

1477
01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:25,519
Speaker 20: which is a negotiating period to put some fine points

1478
01:17:25,840 --> 01:17:28,559
Speaker 20: on this into hopefully broker an agreement that can achieve

1479
01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:29,920
Speaker 20: long term piece in the Middle East.

1480
01:17:30,080 --> 01:17:32,559
Speaker 16: Yeah, and then second, what is the President's message to

1481
01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:36,120
Speaker 16: American seniors who have a much higher voter participation rate.

1482
01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:37,760
Speaker 8: And they're likely to a key swing vote in the

1483
01:17:37,760 --> 01:17:38,640
Speaker 8: midterm elections.

1484
01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:42,240
Speaker 20: Well, the President loves our seniors across the country. And

1485
01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:45,040
Speaker 20: as you know, the President signed the one big, beautiful bill,

1486
01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:48,719
Speaker 20: the Working Families Tax Cut, last year, which greatly reduced

1487
01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:52,160
Speaker 20: taxes on Social Security for our seniors. In fact, thanks

1488
01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:55,000
Speaker 20: to the Working Families Tax Cut, nearly ninety percent of

1489
01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:58,559
Speaker 20: seniors will no longer pay tax on their Social Security

1490
01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:01,000
Speaker 20: That's a huge win for our senior and also for

1491
01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:03,600
Speaker 20: our middle class and working families across the country with

1492
01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:05,679
Speaker 20: the no tax on tips provision and the no tax

1493
01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:06,320
Speaker 20: on overtime.

1494
01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:08,960
Speaker 10: Next week is tax Week, You'll.

1495
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:10,919
Speaker 20: Hear a lot from the President about how his policies

1496
01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:13,559
Speaker 20: have benefited the American people. And I'm proud to report

1497
01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:15,439
Speaker 20: that the President will be traveling next week to the

1498
01:18:15,479 --> 01:18:18,920
Speaker 20: great states of Nevada and Arizona to tout this historic

1499
01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:21,240
Speaker 20: accomplishment over the course of the next week.

1500
01:18:21,439 --> 01:18:23,840
Speaker 10: Thank you for being here, Shane Gabe, Thank you, Carol.

1501
01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:27,120
Speaker 13: I bring in state media is saying that Iran is

1502
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:29,600
Speaker 13: now closed off the straightfour moose today in response to

1503
01:18:29,640 --> 01:18:32,799
Speaker 13: his raally tax on Lebanon. What's the White House response

1504
01:18:32,840 --> 01:18:36,240
Speaker 13: to that? And you just listed many military successes. I

1505
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:40,920
Speaker 13: understand that, But strategically, how is the administration arguing that

1506
01:18:40,960 --> 01:18:46,000
Speaker 13: Iran does not have more economic leverage than now than

1507
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:47,040
Speaker 13: it did before the Sorry?

1508
01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:50,320
Speaker 20: Sure, well, with respect to the first reporting out of

1509
01:18:50,400 --> 01:18:52,679
Speaker 20: Iranian state media, the President was made aware of those

1510
01:18:52,680 --> 01:18:56,960
Speaker 20: reports before I came to the podium. That is completely unacceptable.

1511
01:18:57,000 --> 01:18:58,920
Speaker 20: And again This is a case of what they're saying

1512
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:02,280
Speaker 20: publicly is different. We have seen an uptick of traffic

1513
01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:05,360
Speaker 20: in the strait today, and I will reiterate the President's

1514
01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:10,360
Speaker 20: expectation and demand that the strait of Hermose is reopened immediately,

1515
01:19:10,720 --> 01:19:14,160
Speaker 20: quickly and safely. That is his expectation. It has been

1516
01:19:14,200 --> 01:19:16,960
Speaker 20: relayed to him privately that that is what's taking place

1517
01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:19,120
Speaker 20: in these reports publicly are false.

1518
01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:20,000
Speaker 19: Care And the.

1519
01:19:19,960 --> 01:19:23,559
Speaker 13: President yesterday threatened that our whole civilization would die if

1520
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:26,920
Speaker 13: a ceasefire deal wasn't reached, understanding that Iranian leaders have

1521
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:30,360
Speaker 13: previously set death to America. But guys, it appropriate for

1522
01:19:30,439 --> 01:19:33,080
Speaker 13: the President of the United States to use that kind

1523
01:19:33,120 --> 01:19:37,120
Speaker 13: of language when talking about civilian targets. And was a

1524
01:19:37,160 --> 01:19:40,360
Speaker 13: president maki Islam by signing off his true social post

1525
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:43,880
Speaker 13: over the weekend Praise be to Allah? Would that antagonized

1526
01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:45,519
Speaker 13: Muslim analyzed across the world.

1527
01:19:45,960 --> 01:19:49,040
Speaker 20: Well, I understand the questions about the president's rhetoric, but

1528
01:19:49,120 --> 01:19:52,320
Speaker 20: what the President cares most about is results, And in fact,

1529
01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:56,439
Speaker 20: his very tough rhetoric and his tough negotiating style is

1530
01:19:56,479 --> 01:19:58,439
Speaker 20: what has led to the result that you are all

1531
01:19:58,439 --> 01:19:59,280
Speaker 20: witnessing today.

1532
01:19:59,360 --> 01:20:01,479
Speaker 10: Iron public acknowledging.

1533
01:20:01,439 --> 01:20:04,439
Speaker 20: Last night that they have agreed or that they wanted

1534
01:20:04,439 --> 01:20:06,800
Speaker 20: this cease fire with the United States because they no

1535
01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:09,560
Speaker 20: longer could tolerate being bombed by our very powerful and

1536
01:20:09,640 --> 01:20:12,120
Speaker 20: lethal military, and that they have committed to the.

1537
01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:13,720
Speaker 10: Reopening of the Strait of her Moose, which the.

1538
01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:16,439
Speaker 20: President will hold them accountable for, and it's something the

1539
01:20:16,479 --> 01:20:20,439
Speaker 20: administration is closely monitoring in real time. Danny, Should the

1540
01:20:20,439 --> 01:20:23,400
Speaker 20: world not take his work seriously, the world should take

1541
01:20:23,400 --> 01:20:26,880
Speaker 20: his word very seriously and understanding that the President is

1542
01:20:26,920 --> 01:20:30,320
Speaker 20: always most interested in results. And it was the Iranians

1543
01:20:30,320 --> 01:20:32,880
Speaker 20: who backed down, not President Trump. He said that they

1544
01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:35,519
Speaker 20: would face very grave consequences, as you just laid out

1545
01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:37,799
Speaker 20: by the eight pm deadline if they did not agree

1546
01:20:37,960 --> 01:20:39,479
Speaker 20: to reopening the Strait of her Moose.

1547
01:20:39,520 --> 01:20:41,479
Speaker 10: And what did they do last night? They agreed to

1548
01:20:41,520 --> 01:20:44,479
Speaker 10: reopen the strait of her Moose. Danny, Thanks, thanks.

1549
01:20:44,520 --> 01:20:47,960
Speaker 21: Con Would President Trump liked to see Lebanon including this

1550
01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:50,120
Speaker 21: peace deal, because you know that's been increased as Ready

1551
01:20:50,680 --> 01:20:53,800
Speaker 21: strikes on Levenon today with dozens of casualties.

1552
01:20:53,320 --> 01:20:56,400
Speaker 20: Then sure Lebanon is not part of the ceasefire that

1553
01:20:56,479 --> 01:20:59,200
Speaker 20: has been relayed to all parties involved in the ceasefire,

1554
01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:00,040
Speaker 20: as you.

1555
01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:02,719
Speaker 10: Prime Minister net Yahoo put out a statement last.

1556
01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:05,400
Speaker 20: Night in support of the ceasefire, in support of the

1557
01:21:05,479 --> 01:21:08,160
Speaker 20: United States his efforts, and he's also asshored to President

1558
01:21:08,320 --> 01:21:10,559
Speaker 20: they'll continue to be a helpful partner throughout the course

1559
01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:11,479
Speaker 20: of the next two weeks.

1560
01:21:11,880 --> 01:21:13,840
Speaker 21: Is there any thought though that the President might like

1561
01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:16,600
Speaker 21: to see Levanon included in a future date, given that

1562
01:21:16,640 --> 01:21:21,280
Speaker 21: it seems to be causing or potentially undermining the around ceaslaw.

1563
01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:24,120
Speaker 10: Again, this will continue to be discussed. I am sure

1564
01:21:24,200 --> 01:21:25,920
Speaker 10: between the President.

1565
01:21:25,640 --> 01:21:28,120
Speaker 20: And Prime Minister net Yahoo, the United States and Israel

1566
01:21:28,120 --> 01:21:30,080
Speaker 20: and all of the parties involved, but at this.

1567
01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:33,000
Speaker 10: Point in time, they're not included in the Seaspare deal. Jeff,

1568
01:21:33,120 --> 01:21:34,240
Speaker 10: thank you, Thank Caroline.

1569
01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:37,400
Speaker 9: Will the US take part in talks with Iran and

1570
01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:38,799
Speaker 9: Islamabad on Friday?

1571
01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:43,760
Speaker 20: I can announce that the President is dispatching his negotiating team,

1572
01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:46,599
Speaker 20: led by the Vice President of the United States jd Vance,

1573
01:21:46,880 --> 01:21:49,400
Speaker 20: Special Envoy Witcoff, and mister Kushner to.

1574
01:21:49,400 --> 01:21:51,400
Speaker 10: Islamabad for talks this weekend.

1575
01:21:51,479 --> 01:21:53,720
Speaker 20: The first round of those talks will take place on

1576
01:21:53,800 --> 01:21:56,719
Speaker 20: Saturday morning local time, and we know we look forward

1577
01:21:56,720 --> 01:21:57,960
Speaker 20: to those in person meetings.

1578
01:21:58,120 --> 01:22:00,360
Speaker 16: What role does the President see for the new less

1579
01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:03,920
Speaker 16: in monitoring or helping with fist rate of form was

1580
01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:04,479
Speaker 16: twenty four.

1581
01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:07,160
Speaker 20: I think the President commented on that this morning. We're

1582
01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:10,400
Speaker 20: going to continue to monitor it very very closely. We

1583
01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:12,320
Speaker 20: will be helpful in any way that we can. But

1584
01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:14,679
Speaker 20: we fully expect Aron to do this, and the President

1585
01:22:14,720 --> 01:22:15,559
Speaker 20: has made that quite.

1586
01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:15,920
Speaker 10: Clear as well.

1587
01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:20,280
Speaker 20: It's again, as his statement said last night, the ceasefires

1588
01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:23,920
Speaker 20: subject to the safe reopening of the Strait of Hermose. Again,

1589
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:26,760
Speaker 20: this was just determined last night. We understand things take time,

1590
01:22:27,040 --> 01:22:29,639
Speaker 20: but that's the President's expectation and he will hold everyone

1591
01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:29,920
Speaker 20: to it.

1592
01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:34,960
Speaker 10: Sure in the green blazer, thank you, thank you. Sure,

1593
01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:36,880
Speaker 10: and then in front of you, but Andrew, you can

1594
01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:39,120
Speaker 10: go ahead. You're not wearing a green blazer.

1595
01:22:40,200 --> 01:22:40,479
Speaker 15: I am.

1596
01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:42,639
Speaker 10: Actually it was a little round.

1597
01:22:42,479 --> 01:22:45,760
Speaker 22: To me, but go ahead, fair enough.

1598
01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:46,760
Speaker 6: So.

1599
01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:50,840
Speaker 23: Regarding the President's rhetoric when the US invade it Iraq

1600
01:22:50,880 --> 01:22:54,600
Speaker 23: in two thousand and three, George W. Bush said in

1601
01:22:54,640 --> 01:22:58,679
Speaker 23: a message to the Iraqi people that the military campaign

1602
01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:02,040
Speaker 23: was directed quote against the lawless men who rule your country,

1603
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:07,360
Speaker 23: and not against you. Yesterday, the President threatened to destroy

1604
01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:13,040
Speaker 23: Iran's civilization, the entire civilization, not the Iranian government, but

1605
01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:18,040
Speaker 23: the Iranian civilization, the Iranian people. The US has been

1606
01:23:18,080 --> 01:23:21,719
Speaker 23: a moral leader for most of its history by fighting

1607
01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:28,880
Speaker 23: wars against other governments, not against civilizations. How can the

1608
01:23:28,920 --> 01:23:31,599
Speaker 23: President claim that America can ever have the moral high

1609
01:23:31,600 --> 01:23:36,439
Speaker 23: ground if he's threatening to destroy civilizations and not casting

1610
01:23:36,520 --> 01:23:39,480
Speaker 23: wars as fights against other governments.

1611
01:23:40,080 --> 01:23:41,720
Speaker 20: Andrew, I think you should take a look at the

1612
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:44,000
Speaker 20: actions of this president over the course of the past

1613
01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:46,439
Speaker 20: six weeks, and the actions of our brave men and

1614
01:23:46,439 --> 01:23:49,639
Speaker 20: women in our United States military who have taken out

1615
01:23:50,240 --> 01:23:54,040
Speaker 20: the essentially taken out the military of a rogue Islamic

1616
01:23:54,439 --> 01:23:58,000
Speaker 20: regime that has chanted death to America for forty seven years,

1617
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:01,680
Speaker 20: that has killed and maimed of American soldiers over the

1618
01:24:01,720 --> 01:24:05,120
Speaker 20: course of the last five decades. The President absolutely has

1619
01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:08,320
Speaker 20: the moral high ground over the Iranian terrorist regime, and

1620
01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:10,959
Speaker 20: for you to even suggest otherwise is frankly insulting.

1621
01:24:11,120 --> 01:24:15,000
Speaker 23: If Caroline, go ahead with withold your respect go ahead

1622
01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:15,479
Speaker 23: there is.

1623
01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:20,240
Speaker 15: Just given what we've seen in Lebanon today and the

1624
01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:23,439
Speaker 15: increased attacks of Israel, is there any concern that met

1625
01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:26,000
Speaker 15: Yahoo is trying to kill the ceasefire?

1626
01:24:26,360 --> 01:24:28,920
Speaker 20: The President spoke with Prime Minister net Yaho last night.

1627
01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:32,479
Speaker 20: In that private conversation, Prime Minister net Yeah, who related

1628
01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:34,400
Speaker 20: exactly what he said to the world publicly that he

1629
01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:37,639
Speaker 20: supports the President in Israel remains a key ally and.

1630
01:24:37,600 --> 01:24:39,000
Speaker 10: Partner to the United States.

1631
01:24:39,240 --> 01:24:41,400
Speaker 20: They've been a tremendous partner over the course of the

1632
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:44,240
Speaker 20: past six weeks, and we thank them for their heroic

1633
01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:48,439
Speaker 20: efforts as well. And the President had that conversation last

1634
01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:52,040
Speaker 20: night and that was relayed to the world publicly as well.

1635
01:24:52,040 --> 01:24:54,519
Speaker 10: Reagan, go ahead, Carolyn, I have a question for you

1636
01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:55,320
Speaker 10: on Iran.

1637
01:24:55,439 --> 01:24:59,360
Speaker 15: You're a question on the Dignity Act as sure. On Iran,

1638
01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:01,960
Speaker 15: it's been I ordered that the ceasefire was struck after

1639
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:05,439
Speaker 15: the involvement of two unlikely factors, Jdie Vance in China.

1640
01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:08,679
Speaker 10: What role did those parties play in striking a deal?

1641
01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:12,280
Speaker 20: Well, Vice President Vance has played a very significant and

1642
01:25:12,479 --> 01:25:15,240
Speaker 20: a key role in this since the very beginning. Of course,

1643
01:25:15,280 --> 01:25:17,200
Speaker 20: he's the President's right hand band. He is the Vice

1644
01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:19,840
Speaker 20: president of the United States. He's been involved in all

1645
01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:22,040
Speaker 20: of these discussions, and as I just announced, he'll be

1646
01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:27,360
Speaker 20: leading this new phase of negotiations in Islamabad later this week.

1647
01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:29,679
Speaker 10: With respect to China.

1648
01:25:30,200 --> 01:25:33,439
Speaker 20: There were conversations that took place between top levels of

1649
01:25:33,479 --> 01:25:37,599
Speaker 20: our government and China's government. The President has great respect

1650
01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:41,320
Speaker 20: for President She in a great working relationship with him

1651
01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:45,000
Speaker 20: and with that country, and he looks forward to visiting

1652
01:25:45,360 --> 01:25:47,200
Speaker 20: China in just a few weeks.

1653
01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:50,520
Speaker 15: On the Dignity Act, it's getting a fresh push through Congress.

1654
01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:53,840
Speaker 15: It would give some illegal immigrants in the country a

1655
01:25:53,880 --> 01:25:56,840
Speaker 15: path to citizenship. What's the White House's position on this

1656
01:25:56,960 --> 01:25:59,519
Speaker 15: legislation and would the President's sign it if it made.

1657
01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:00,000
Speaker 6: It to his desk?

1658
01:26:00,160 --> 01:26:03,080
Speaker 20: Honestly, Reagan, I haven't spoken to the President about the legislation,

1659
01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:06,120
Speaker 20: but I will have that conversation and we'll get you our.

1660
01:26:06,040 --> 01:26:08,479
Speaker 10: Formal position on it as soon as we can. You're welcome,

1661
01:26:08,920 --> 01:26:09,320
Speaker 10: go ahead.

1662
01:26:09,640 --> 01:26:12,719
Speaker 24: The presidents grew this morning and he was supported.

1663
01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:13,800
Speaker 19: John and the US are on.

1664
01:26:13,920 --> 01:26:17,519
Speaker 24: A venture the charge tolls for ships going through the street.

1665
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:20,959
Speaker 24: Does the President believe that the US should earn revenue

1666
01:26:21,400 --> 01:26:22,880
Speaker 24: from the strait of room US going for.

1667
01:26:23,680 --> 01:26:26,200
Speaker 20: It's something It's an idea the President has floated, as

1668
01:26:26,240 --> 01:26:28,760
Speaker 20: you know, and it's something that will continue to be.

1669
01:26:28,840 --> 01:26:30,599
Speaker 10: Discussed over the course of the next two weeks.

1670
01:26:30,600 --> 01:26:33,840
Speaker 20: But the immediate priority of the President is the reopening

1671
01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:36,800
Speaker 20: of the strait without any limitations, whether in the form

1672
01:26:36,800 --> 01:26:37,879
Speaker 20: of tolls or otherwise.

1673
01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:40,000
Speaker 10: You know, the highly enriched uranium.

1674
01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:43,840
Speaker 24: Has Iran given the administration any indication that it would

1675
01:26:43,880 --> 01:26:48,080
Speaker 24: simply turn over the enriched uranium or is this an

1676
01:26:48,080 --> 01:26:50,720
Speaker 24: expectation the president has that he would have to send

1677
01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:52,519
Speaker 24: in ground troops in order to do that.

1678
01:26:52,760 --> 01:26:54,720
Speaker 20: This is on the top of the priority list for

1679
01:26:54,760 --> 01:26:57,400
Speaker 20: the President and his negotiating team as they head into

1680
01:26:57,400 --> 01:26:58,880
Speaker 20: the next round of discussions.

1681
01:26:59,120 --> 01:27:01,120
Speaker 10: And as I said my opener.

1682
01:27:00,800 --> 01:27:02,600
Speaker 20: That is a red line that the President is not

1683
01:27:02,680 --> 01:27:06,080
Speaker 20: going to back away from, and he's committed to ensuring

1684
01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:06,880
Speaker 20: that takes place.

1685
01:27:07,320 --> 01:27:08,439
Speaker 10: We hope it will be through.

1686
01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:14,480
Speaker 20: Diplomacy they have, Yes, Trevor.

1687
01:27:14,360 --> 01:27:16,439
Speaker 25: The latest news out of Iran is that the air

1688
01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:20,600
Speaker 25: defenses have been activated in several cities, including Ismahan, and

1689
01:27:20,600 --> 01:27:23,400
Speaker 25: that explosions have been hurting as Kumamo, who is vombiting

1690
01:27:23,479 --> 01:27:24,320
Speaker 25: Iran right now?

1691
01:27:25,360 --> 01:27:27,840
Speaker 10: Were those reports just as of a few minutes ago.

1692
01:27:28,160 --> 01:27:30,519
Speaker 20: Okay, so obviously I'll have to go back and check

1693
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:32,760
Speaker 20: with the national security team. I'm standing out here with

1694
01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:34,160
Speaker 20: all of you, but I will do that and we

1695
01:27:34,200 --> 01:27:35,560
Speaker 20: will get you an answer, Okay.

1696
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:39,400
Speaker 25: The civilization question that we've been talking about, and I

1697
01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:41,760
Speaker 25: would just add to that point again, I haven't seen

1698
01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:42,240
Speaker 25: these reports.

1699
01:27:42,280 --> 01:27:43,360
Speaker 10: I'm not verifying them.

1700
01:27:43,600 --> 01:27:45,200
Speaker 20: Not that I don't trust you, Trevor, but I want

1701
01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:46,880
Speaker 20: to go back and check with the experts here at

1702
01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:48,840
Speaker 20: the White House. I would just say, and I would

1703
01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:51,479
Speaker 20: echo what the Vice President said this morning, this is

1704
01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:52,479
Speaker 20: a fragile truce.

1705
01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:54,360
Speaker 10: Ceasefires are fragile by nature.

1706
01:27:54,400 --> 01:27:56,760
Speaker 14: We've seen this with respect to the twenty all right,

1707
01:27:56,840 --> 01:28:00,519
Speaker 14: we're learning a lot that has that Lebanon is not

1708
01:28:00,560 --> 01:28:03,559
Speaker 14: included in the ceasefire, that this is the wrong ten

1709
01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:07,639
Speaker 14: point plan that there's been reported. There's an entirely new one,

1710
01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:09,560
Speaker 14: so much more to get to here. We're going to

1711
01:28:09,600 --> 01:28:11,920
Speaker 14: continue taking that in the breaks really quick. I want

1712

01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:23,439
Speaker 1: The last few years, I've had really bad swelling.

01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:26,040

Speaker 14: We'll be back and the stream will take more of

1731
01:28:58,160 --> 01:28:58,960
Speaker 14: the presston.

1732
01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:05,320
Speaker 10: Kara tolling by the Iranian and the Strait of Formuz.

1733
01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:07,800
Speaker 1: I've heard you talk about a number.

1734
01:29:07,520 --> 01:29:10,759
Speaker 4: Of redlines that President has in this negotiation, but I haven't.

1735
01:29:10,520 --> 01:29:12,760
Speaker 25: Heard you say that Iranian tolling in the Strait of

1736
01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:14,599
Speaker 25: Hormuz is a red line.

1737
01:29:14,680 --> 01:29:17,559
Speaker 1: Would it be acceptable to the United States at the

1738
01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:20,519
Speaker 1: end of all this if the Iranians are able to charge.

1739
01:29:20,320 --> 01:29:21,559
Speaker 6: Poles and the straight of moves.

1740
01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:24,840
Speaker 20: I think the President was very clear and simplistic in

1741
01:29:24,880 --> 01:29:27,840
Speaker 20: his language last night in his truth social post where

1742
01:29:27,880 --> 01:29:30,960
Speaker 20: he said that this ceasefire is subject too of the free,

1743
01:29:31,000 --> 01:29:34,360
Speaker 20: safe and immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuse. That's

1744
01:29:34,680 --> 01:29:37,360
Speaker 20: very plain language and it should be taken at face value,

1745
01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:42,080
Speaker 20: carry Carrie go ahead without limitation including tolls.

1746
01:29:42,160 --> 01:29:44,639
Speaker 10: Yes, Kerry, A good call on you, Tolly.

1747
01:29:44,720 --> 01:29:47,519
Speaker 26: What would the US to allow a RAND to collect

1748
01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:50,479
Speaker 26: tolls in the Strait of Kermespects that's something that we've

1749
01:29:50,479 --> 01:29:52,519
Speaker 26: opposed for in the work years now.

1750
01:29:52,960 --> 01:29:56,320
Speaker 20: Again, that's not something we've said that we've definitively accepted.

1751
01:29:56,439 --> 01:29:59,599
Speaker 20: The joint venture is something that was proposed by the President,

1752
01:29:59,680 --> 01:30:01,800
Speaker 20: but he was very clear in his statement last night

1753
01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:05,320
Speaker 20: he wants to see the strait reopened immediately without limitation,

1754
01:30:05,400 --> 01:30:06,760
Speaker 20: and that's something we're going to hold them to.

1755
01:30:07,720 --> 01:30:11,879
Speaker 26: Second question one, family and friends in Iran. I myself

1756
01:30:11,920 --> 01:30:14,360
Speaker 26: am Iranian, and I've been talking to them through the blackout.

1757
01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:14,760
Speaker 9: One of my.

1758
01:30:14,760 --> 01:30:16,920
Speaker 10: Family members yesterday said goodbye to me.

1759
01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:21,200
Speaker 20: So what message should we be sunning Iranians when they

1760
01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:23,639
Speaker 20: message me saying what should they be doing right now?

1761
01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:26,400
Speaker 10: How should they stay safe? Because they really don't know

1762
01:30:26,439 --> 01:30:27,080
Speaker 10: what to do.

1763
01:30:28,479 --> 01:30:31,639
Speaker 20: I think the President's main priority, and my main priority

1764
01:30:31,640 --> 01:30:34,599
Speaker 20: as his spokeswoman, is to make sure that clear messages

1765
01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:37,040
Speaker 20: are sent to the American people, of course, which is

1766
01:30:37,120 --> 01:30:40,760
Speaker 20: my job today. With respect to the Iranian people, the

1767
01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:43,800
Speaker 20: President has taken out the imminent threat that was posed

1768
01:30:43,840 --> 01:30:46,719
Speaker 20: by their military to the United States, to our allies

1769
01:30:46,760 --> 01:30:49,360
Speaker 20: in the region, to our forces in the region, and

1770
01:30:49,439 --> 01:30:52,280
Speaker 20: of course, as the President has long said, he hopes

1771
01:30:52,360 --> 01:30:55,960
Speaker 20: that Iran will be a country of peace, of prosperity.

1772
01:30:55,960 --> 01:30:56,920
Speaker 10: And we're moving into.

1773
01:30:56,800 --> 01:30:59,519
Speaker 20: This next round of negotiations to hopefully come to an

1774
01:30:59,560 --> 01:31:03,760
Speaker 20: agreement with this new regime that will create long term

1775
01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:05,080
Speaker 20: stability in the Middle East.

1776
01:31:05,439 --> 01:31:08,240
Speaker 26: Also that they should stay inside of their homes and

1777
01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:13,040
Speaker 26: also take back their country. So how there's a contradiction there,

1778
01:31:13,080 --> 01:31:14,080
Speaker 26: so how do you address that?

1779
01:31:14,160 --> 01:31:14,439
Speaker 10: Again?

1780
01:31:14,479 --> 01:31:18,160
Speaker 20: We're moving into this next round of negotiations with the

1781
01:31:18,160 --> 01:31:20,320
Speaker 20: remnants of the regime and those that we are speaking

1782
01:31:20,400 --> 01:31:23,679
Speaker 20: with now to hopefully reach a place of peace long

1783
01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,000
Speaker 20: term for the region, and that includes the Iranian people

1784
01:31:26,040 --> 01:31:27,679
Speaker 20: as well.

1785
01:31:27,720 --> 01:31:30,760
Speaker 22: In the blue go ahead, thank you for than the

1786
01:31:30,880 --> 01:31:34,240
Speaker 22: what has issued posted the statement from the Iranian government

1787
01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:36,840
Speaker 22: that the passage in the Strait will be coordinated with

1788
01:31:36,880 --> 01:31:38,080
Speaker 22: the runs armed forces.

1789
01:31:38,439 --> 01:31:41,000
Speaker 10: As of today, who controls the state of straight.

1790
01:31:40,880 --> 01:31:45,080
Speaker 20: Uparmais Again, these statements were put out twelve hours ago.

1791
01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:48,360
Speaker 10: We expect that the strait will be opened immediately.

1792
01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:51,479
Speaker 20: As I said earlier, we have seen an uptick in

1793
01:31:51,600 --> 01:31:53,559
Speaker 20: traffic in the strait, and it's something that we are

1794
01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:56,320
Speaker 20: monitoring minute by minute, hour by hour.

1795
01:31:56,160 --> 01:32:01,840
Speaker 10: As the days go on straight ques one on the.

1796
01:32:01,840 --> 01:32:06,360
Speaker 17: Deportations of Iranian officials and on from the negotiations.

1797
01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:09,280
Speaker 10: Are there still security concerns about vice predate.

1798
01:32:09,040 --> 01:32:13,000
Speaker 17: Demands, how the car and the space talks on Stepwoyd, Collbshare, Kushner.

1799
01:32:13,400 --> 01:32:17,160
Speaker 17: And then two, given the ongoing deportation of General Solamani's niece,

1800
01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:20,720
Speaker 17: does the Trump administration plan to deport more relatives or

1801
01:32:21,439 --> 01:32:23,439
Speaker 17: people in the families of Iranian officials that.

1802
01:32:23,479 --> 01:32:24,000
Speaker 7: Are in the US.

1803
01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:26,840
Speaker 10: Certainly, anyone who is here fraudulently.

1804
01:32:27,240 --> 01:32:30,640
Speaker 20: I understand one of the individuals who their visa was

1805
01:32:30,680 --> 01:32:33,320
Speaker 20: revoked by Secretary of Rubio and they were deported by Ice.

1806
01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:36,000
Speaker 10: They had a fraudulent assilent claim. That's against the laws

1807
01:32:36,040 --> 01:32:36,880
Speaker 10: of the United States.

1808
01:32:37,200 --> 01:32:40,799
Speaker 20: So anyone who is here illegally or fraudulently is subject

1809
01:32:40,840 --> 01:32:43,080
Speaker 20: to our nation's immigration laws and will be removed from

1810
01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:45,320
Speaker 20: our country. And I know this continues to be a

1811
01:32:45,400 --> 01:32:48,400
Speaker 20: top priority for the State Department, working in conjunction with

1812
01:32:48,520 --> 01:32:51,599
Speaker 20: the Department of Homeland Security, with respect to the safety

1813
01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:54,679
Speaker 20: of the Vice President We fully trust the United States

1814
01:32:54,720 --> 01:32:57,080
Speaker 20: Secret Service to do their job to keep the Vice

1815
01:32:57,120 --> 01:32:59,360
Speaker 20: President and the President's negotiating team safe.

1816
01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:02,240
Speaker 10: Do a tremendous job, and we fully trust them to

1817
01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:04,439
Speaker 10: do that. In the back go ahead.

1818
01:33:06,479 --> 01:33:09,040
Speaker 25: President has said to you Bays guys, what's the message

1819
01:33:09,160 --> 01:33:11,880
Speaker 25: the American people regarding Cuban and what can Cubans expect

1820
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:13,080
Speaker 25: in relations to this statement.

1821
01:33:13,560 --> 01:33:16,479
Speaker 20: Well, look, I think when President Trump said that, and

1822
01:33:16,560 --> 01:33:19,240
Speaker 20: he later clarified after making that statement, that he meant

1823
01:33:19,720 --> 01:33:22,920
Speaker 20: the Cuban regime is bound to fall. The country is

1824
01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:27,440
Speaker 20: very weak. They're in a very weak position economically, obviously financially.

1825
01:33:28,160 --> 01:33:30,559
Speaker 20: The Cuban people are fed up with their government, as

1826
01:33:30,680 --> 01:33:33,960
Speaker 20: they should be, and these talks and discussions.

1827
01:33:33,439 --> 01:33:36,120
Speaker 10: Continue to happen at the highest level of our government.

1828
01:33:36,200 --> 01:33:38,439
Speaker 20: I don't have any updates or announcements for you with

1829
01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:40,000
Speaker 20: respect to Cuba policy today.

1830
01:33:41,400 --> 01:33:42,599
Speaker 10: Good to see, Thank you, Caroline.

1831
01:33:42,880 --> 01:33:45,840
Speaker 26: Secretary Hecsas said this morning that US troops would be

1832
01:33:46,120 --> 01:33:49,639
Speaker 26: sticking around. Can you expound upon that what we should

1833
01:33:49,680 --> 01:33:52,639
Speaker 26: expect from US troops in theater for the next two

1834
01:33:52,680 --> 01:33:53,439
Speaker 26: weeks and beyond.

1835
01:33:54,040 --> 01:33:56,680
Speaker 20: I would defer you to the Pentagon for any specifics

1836
01:33:56,720 --> 01:33:59,880
Speaker 20: on assets that have been in place in the Middle East.

1837
01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:02,680
Speaker 20: But take the Secretary at his word, and also the

1838
01:34:02,760 --> 01:34:05,320
Speaker 20: President has reiterated this as well in his own words,

1839
01:34:05,760 --> 01:34:08,160
Speaker 20: that we're not going to move anything immediately. Again, this

1840
01:34:08,360 --> 01:34:10,439
Speaker 20: is a two week seaspire where we hope at the

1841
01:34:10,560 --> 01:34:12,640
Speaker 20: end and we expect at the end we'll have a

1842
01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:15,080
Speaker 20: good agreements between the United States and Iran. But in

1843
01:34:15,160 --> 01:34:18,000
Speaker 20: the meantime, we're going to ensure that our military is

1844
01:34:18,120 --> 01:34:19,080
Speaker 20: always at the ready of.

1845
01:34:19,080 --> 01:34:22,720
Speaker 10: The Commander in chief. Take a couple more in the back.

1846
01:34:23,160 --> 01:34:26,280
Speaker 10: Thank you, Thank you. On NATO, i'll take your question.

1847
01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:31,240
Speaker 5: Can you tell me the United States still considering withdrawing

1848
01:34:31,680 --> 01:34:32,160
Speaker 5: from NATO?

1849
01:34:32,320 --> 01:34:33,320
Speaker 8: Is that so possibility?

1850
01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:35,800
Speaker 20: It's something the President has discussed, and I think it's

1851
01:34:35,840 --> 01:34:37,680
Speaker 20: something the President will be discussing in a couple of

1852
01:34:37,760 --> 01:34:40,960
Speaker 20: hours with Secretary General Ruta, and perhaps you'll hear directly

1853
01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:43,280
Speaker 20: from the President following that meeting later this afternoon.

1854
01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:52,880
Speaker 8: Thank you, everyone up, all right, welcome back. A lot

1855
01:34:53,000 --> 01:34:53,920
Speaker 8: of information there.

1856
01:34:54,520 --> 01:34:56,880
Speaker 14: We're told just to I think hit some of the

1857
01:34:56,960 --> 01:34:59,920
Speaker 14: high water marks here that the straight up horn moose

1858
01:35:00,240 --> 01:35:02,679
Speaker 14: is open for all intents and purposes.

1859
01:35:02,800 --> 01:35:04,240
Speaker 8: The President continues.

1860
01:35:03,840 --> 01:35:07,799
Speaker 14: Demand that demand that the Strait is open safely, securely,

1861
01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:10,800
Speaker 14: and immediately. That was apparently the lynchpin to getting the

1862
01:35:10,880 --> 01:35:14,120
Speaker 14: sea fire two weeks ceasefire accomplished.

1863
01:35:14,120 --> 01:35:15,759
Speaker 8: In the first place, we're told.

1864
01:35:15,640 --> 01:35:19,600
Speaker 14: Lebanon is not a part of the current framework, so

1865
01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:24,800
Speaker 14: Israel's free apparently to continue attacking southern Lebanon and Hezbalad there.

1866
01:35:25,080 --> 01:35:26,960
Speaker 8: We'll see if you're on, we'll see if we'll see

1867
01:35:26,960 --> 01:35:29,160
Speaker 8: if Ron agrees. We are told that JD.

1868
01:35:29,360 --> 01:35:32,640
Speaker 14: Vance is in fact going to be participating in the

1869
01:35:33,439 --> 01:35:37,200
Speaker 14: peace negotiations in Islamabad starting on Friday, along with Special

1870
01:35:37,360 --> 01:35:41,519
Speaker 14: Envoy Wit Coough and mister Jared Kushner. I think those

1871
01:35:41,560 --> 01:35:43,880
Speaker 14: were the big points that there's a lot of questions

1872
01:35:43,880 --> 01:35:47,880
Speaker 14: about America's you know, the moral equivalency because of President

1873
01:35:47,920 --> 01:35:48,719
Speaker 14: Trump's truths.

1874
01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:50,840
Speaker 8: You know, are we any better than Iran? Of course

1875
01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:51,240
Speaker 8: we are.

1876
01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:54,640
Speaker 14: You know, we don't kill fifty thousand protesters on the

1877
01:35:54,680 --> 01:35:56,759
Speaker 14: streets when they're protesting the government.

1878
01:35:58,000 --> 01:36:00,240
Speaker 8: So a lot of insanity there. There was a order

1879
01:36:00,240 --> 01:36:00,679
Speaker 8: there going.

1880
01:36:00,640 --> 01:36:03,599
Speaker 14: Like my auntie from from Iran called me and asked,

1881
01:36:03,680 --> 01:36:07,200
Speaker 14: if you know, if she said goodbye, like listen, like

1882
01:36:07,800 --> 01:36:10,479
Speaker 14: it's so annoying, And the press was very annoying there.

1883
01:36:10,640 --> 01:36:13,000
Speaker 14: She does a great job putting up with their garbage.

1884
01:36:13,040 --> 01:36:14,400
Speaker 14: But yeah, what were your main takeaways?

1885
01:36:14,520 --> 01:36:16,760
Speaker 16: I thought the most interesting thing is they did ask

1886
01:36:16,840 --> 01:36:20,640
Speaker 16: about NATO and the President did express or I should say,

1887
01:36:20,720 --> 01:36:24,280
Speaker 16: leve it. She expressed a lot of disappointment with them.

1888
01:36:24,439 --> 01:36:27,120
Speaker 16: The line was like they had the chance to step

1889
01:36:27,280 --> 01:36:30,519
Speaker 16: up and they failed. I do wonder if we'll see

1890
01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:32,760
Speaker 16: more discussion of that. It could, of course be another

1891
01:36:32,800 --> 01:36:36,360
Speaker 16: play by the president. He's always wanted NATO to contribute

1892
01:36:36,479 --> 01:36:38,960
Speaker 16: more generally, step up for their own defense.

1893
01:36:39,320 --> 01:36:42,800
Speaker 14: Mark Ruta, the Secretary General of NATO, is meeting with

1894
01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:46,120
Speaker 14: the President today, so he's at the White House, and

1895
01:36:46,240 --> 01:36:49,880
Speaker 14: he's been somebody that understands Trump, that seems to have

1896
01:36:49,960 --> 01:36:53,840
Speaker 14: embraced Trump more fully with all of his you know,

1897
01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:57,200
Speaker 14: quirks and idiosyncrasies. So you know, I happen to think

1898
01:36:57,520 --> 01:37:00,360
Speaker 14: that NATO will continue on, our involvement in ATO will

1899
01:37:00,360 --> 01:37:03,639
Speaker 14: continue on. But yeah, this was this was a big

1900
01:37:03,760 --> 01:37:07,680
Speaker 14: blow to that alliance. I think, and and again we

1901
01:37:07,760 --> 01:37:10,080
Speaker 14: could argue Trump calls it a paper tiger. I think

1902
01:37:10,120 --> 01:37:12,000
Speaker 14: it's yet to be seen if NATO is going to

1903
01:37:12,080 --> 01:37:15,920
Speaker 14: live up to its promise or not. More tomorrow.

1904
01:37:17,400 --> 01:37:18,920
Speaker 8: It was nice spending time with you. Able to see

1905
01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:19,080
Speaker 8: then
