68
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 2: for the Commander in chief. He's going to address the

69
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 2: the enlisted and officers of the Truman and around Norfolk

70
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:04,279
Speaker 2: Naval station.

71
00:07:04,960 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 9: Here we go.

72
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely going to take breaks into it. Where the

73
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 2: President comes, We're going to break to it. The Commander

74
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 2: in chief of the Armed Forces has been out seeing

75
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 2: a life fire exercise. It's kind of his Teddy Roosevelt moment.

76
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 2: The White Fleet. Emerald Masso, you may know the history

77
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 2: better than I do. I think I think Roosevelt actually

78
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 2: reviewed the White The White Fleet went around the world,

79
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 2: and he went around the world because he wanted to

80
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 2: show the global power of the United States Navy. I

81
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 2: believe I believe that Roosevelt reviewed the White Fleet at Narfolk.

82
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 2: Am I do you remember that? Or am I wrong there?

83
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 5: I do?

84
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 10: That's absolutely correct. And you know, he he wanted to

85
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 10: establish an assert power projection and uh, and he invoked

86
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 10: his own personal powers uh and and sent them out,

87
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 10: you know, to the far East. And then he had

88
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 10: to get an Act of Congress to get get you know,

89
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 10: to pay for the fuel to get him back.

90
00:10:58,320 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 5: But yes, he did.

91
00:10:59,559 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 11: Uh.

92
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,719
Speaker 10: He did do a pass and review in Norfolk. And

93
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:12,559
Speaker 10: that was a substantial example of Mahan's influence of seapower

94
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 10: on world history.

95
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 5: In action.

96
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 2: Talk to me about that. Talk to me about how

97
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 2: particularly as naval officers. You're ingrained in Alfred Thayer Mahan.

98
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 2: His the book The Impact of Seapower Punt History is

99
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 2: really the basics of naval doctrine for both the Royal

100
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 2: Navy and the United States Navy.

101
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 12: Sir.

102
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 10: What he did was he instantiated the fact that you know,

103
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 10: ninety six percent of the world's population live on coastlines.

104
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:51,079
Speaker 10: That he instantiated the fact that we require sea lines

105
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 10: of communication for the exchange of commerce, and that those

106
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 10: sea lions needed to be protected. And the only nation

107
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 10: that substantial enough to do that was the United States.

108
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 10: And this was a book that really influenced President Roosevelt Theodore,

109
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 10: the twenty sixth president, where he took it almost as

110
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 10: a biblical mission, statement that this was something that he

111
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 10: had to in fact create, and from that spawned things

112
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,559
Speaker 10: like the Great White Fleet, but also the investment of

113
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 10: navy and really naval aviation.

114
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: All of that.

115
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 10: There's a great book written by a historian named doctor

116
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 10: Dave Winkler on the very first aircraft carrier, which just

117
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 10: celebrated its hundredth birthday a few years ago. But the

118
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 10: USS Langley and the heuristic development of aircraft and launch

119
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 10: and recovery of those aircraft, and of course World War

120
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 10: One scipitated another UH example of studying and raising the

121
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 10: bar and those operations.

122

Speaker 2: special inside baseball footage from the naval operations at the

146
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 2: we'll listen to that. Captain fanel Sonny brought it up

147
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 2: talking about Alfred Thayer Mahan. Why is a young naval

148
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 2: officer when you either go to the Naval War College,

149
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 2: or more likely you take the correspondence courses, why is

150
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 2: it the first war you learn about? It's not the

151
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 2: Revolutionary War, but they take you back to the Peloponnesian War.

152
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 2: Why is the Peloponnesian War against Athens and Sparta such

153
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,480
Speaker 2: an important tool for learning about geopolitics?

154
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 12: Sir? Because it was the first great naval conflict in

155
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 12: our kind of recorded history that talked about how one

156
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 12: nation could defeat another nation through naval power. And so

157
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 12: the study of that and understanding of that, and how

158
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 12: that influenced the development of the Greek city states and

159
00:15:56,560 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 12: how they were able to a smaller force to feed

160
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 12: a larger force, if you will, through power projection is

161
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 12: something that Mahan, you know, studied and and then wrote

162
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 12: about and took that history to us. It made us

163
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 12: understand the value and power of sea power. That was

164
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 12: something that probably people knew before then, but it was

165
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 12: really recorded and taught in in the universities in the

166
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 12: Middle Ages and beyond in the in the in the

167
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 12: Enlightenment that people got to learn about that and understand

168
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 12: what happened in the Peloponnesian Wars, and then you know

169
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 12: then the Romans with their their fleets. So the issue

170
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 12: of the ability to move goods and services via the

171
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 12: sea was also wrapped up in this idea that you

172
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 12: had to have vessels that could fight and win and

173
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 12: defend those commercial vessels. And I think that's really the

174
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 12: long arc of history in terms of naval power. And

175
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 12: Mahon was our teacher for that and still is today.

176
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 12: And as you had previous guests on talked about this

177
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 12: idea that we had to have this ability to project

178
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 12: our fleets around the world, and it wasn't just sending

179
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 12: ships like the Great White Fleet as we just talked about,

180
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 12: went out with sixteen battleships some fourteen thousand officers and

181
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 12: sailors for this long journey. What we learned was is

182
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 12: that we needed to have a system of bases and

183
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 12: refueling and capability to underway replenishment and all of that.

184
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 12: And back then it was coal. Today it's you know,

185
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 12: it's it's diesel fuel and other fuels. But the point

186
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,720
Speaker 12: is is that we had this ability to understand that

187
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 12: the power of naval platforms isn't just to carry our goods,

188
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 12: but it's also they are required to be protected as

189
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 12: they're carrying them.

190
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 2: We're seeing, uh, Paul Morgan, what are we seeing right now?

191
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 2: Is that the osprey coming aboard the Truman.

192
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 13: Yeah, that's that's really interesting. That's a HMX one osprey

193
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 13: because it's a green top.

194
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 2: Wow.

195
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:17,160
Speaker 13: Yeah, that's an ospre.

196
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 9: That's beautiful.

197
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 5: Is President on that?

198
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 2: I don't know? That's sunny masso, that's the question. I've

199
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 2: Morgan was gone by a surprise. They put the President

200
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 2: of the States on that a quite controversial aircraft, I

201
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 2: might add correct.

202
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 10: Although a commandant of the Marine Corps, Mike Hagyes. To

203
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 10: show how safe it was, he had his entire family,

204
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 10: his wife and kids, you know, go on a couple

205
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 10: of flights.

206
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 2: By the way, for all our Marine brethren and somebody

207
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 2: we know and love the the uh, We're gonna do

208
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 2: the two and fifteenth anniversary of the birthday of the

209
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,679
Speaker 2: Marine Corps. Also, that's gonna be a very very special event.

210
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 2: We're gonna give him their entire own day since Amal

211
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:10,479
Speaker 2: Masso you know better, the Marines Bridle as we call him,

212
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 2: the junior Naval Service. So it's it's a very special,

213
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,879
Speaker 2: very special breedo man, very special breedo man or woman. No,

214
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 2: the ouspring. I don't think we're gonna see the Commander

215
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 2: chief get out of there. Go ahead, sir, No, I

216
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:24,439
Speaker 2: don't think so.

217
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 10: But as you know, I grew up at the North

218
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,959
Speaker 10: gate of Camp Pendleton in San Clemente, California, and I

219
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 10: have immense respect for the Marine Corps, as I know

220
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 10: you do as well.

221
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, tremendous Cleo. Let me ask you, why is it

222
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 2: Henry Kissinger's sidekick Graham Allison? They are Kissinger and Graham.

223
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 2: Allison always compared China in the United States to Athens

224
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 2: and Sparta. You know Allison Gray's book Destined for War,

225
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,439
Speaker 2: He talks about the twelve or fourteen times a rising

226
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 2: power and declining power have squared off. I think in

227
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 2: those fourteen times, ten of them have been kind of,

228
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 2: you know, almost global conflicts. Why do people keep harkening

229
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 2: back to the Peloponnesian War all the time?

230
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 14: Man, Well, the Peloponnesian War is Captain Fanel said, is

231
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 14: quite important. But the Thucydides trap stuff, I put it

232
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 14: in the makinder bucket of something that needs to be

233
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 14: thought of properly. And again I don't really buy it

234
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:30,880
Speaker 14: because India is in the same position, and India isn't

235
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 14: about to try to attack the United States in the

236
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 14: same way that the Chinese Communist Party is. And then

237
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 14: if you look at those terms Chinese Communist Party, there's

238
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 14: a word in there communist that isn't in the Indian

239
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 14: Republic's name. So I think it's not necessary that our

240
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 14: rising country is going to attack another one. I think,

241
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 14: you know, this is something innate within the system that

242
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 14: has been governing the land of China. Does it look

243
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 14: like they put the journalists on the osprey? Is that

244
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:02,440
Speaker 14: what we did?

245
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 8: No?

246
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 5: I just I was just I was just telling.

247
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 2: I was just telling the not that we're not we're

248
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 2: not smacked talking the osprey. I just want to make sure.

249
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,439
Speaker 2: But my producer just said, Hey, is that the media

250
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 2: that's coming out of the osprey?

251
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it is.

252
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 2: Cleo. Thanks for putting that out though, clear Cleo, Uh

253
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 2: talk tell the audience what the facility's trap is. Why

254
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 2: is it? It's such an important concept, at least for

255
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 2: uh the Munich uh, the Munich Defense Conference, ma'am.

256
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 14: Because it it sort of justifies, uh, this thing that

257
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 14: you know, anybody tries to to challenge us. It's a

258
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,400
Speaker 14: it's a kind of destiny thing, and it's not nothing

259
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 14: to do with the actual systems themselves, and so you

260
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,919
Speaker 14: don't have to look at China as a as a

261
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 14: system or as a as a regime, the nature of

262
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,359
Speaker 14: the regime. You can just say, oh, well, you know,

263
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 14: it's history and there just happened to be this rising power.

264
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 14: It's it's similar to this kind of reverse opium thing

265
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 14: that I also don't like. It's very effective narrative warfare

266
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 14: on the Chinese side because it pulls you away from

267
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 14: thinking about the actual dynamics. But you know, in terms

268
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 14: of the fentanyl being revenge for the opium War. First

269
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,880
Speaker 14: of all, the US wasn't involved in the Opium War.

270
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 14: Second of all, the Opium War was wrong. And so

271
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 14: it's sort of like saying we have slavery and shinjang

272
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 14: because you had slavery in the US at some point too.

273
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 14: Wrongs definitely do not make it right, you know. And

274
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 14: the third it just it gives this narrative warfare weapon

275
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 14: to give them a pass and at the same time hit.

276
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 2: Do you think do you think the CCP Do you

277
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,959
Speaker 2: think the CCP really makes a difference between Great Britain

278
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 2: at t ivespower in the United States? Don't they just

279
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 2: consider us foreign devils?

280
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 14: I think they use different aspects of unrestricted warfare depending

281
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 14: on what works. So, for example, in the case of

282
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 14: you don't see the sort of fentanyl flood that in

283
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 14: the UK that you do here in the US. But

284
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,880
Speaker 14: what you do see is as a buying up of elites,

285
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 14: including the think tank community, that's giving rise to a

286
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 14: situation where, for example, the Diego Garcia military base is

287
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 14: coming under risk. And I think the weak point there

288
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 14: isn't Mauritius, it's the UK, and it's because of the

289
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 14: way that they've tried to undermine the UK. So I

290
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 14: think they've got, you know, this toolkit as described and

291
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 14: i'm the twenty you know twenty four warfare as an

292
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 14: unrestricted warfare, plus many other that they've invented since then,

293
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 14: and they will use as they like. But one of

294
00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 14: the key, the top three of those warfares is this

295
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 14: sort of psychological warfare. And they'll also got media warfare,

296
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,439
Speaker 14: and that that is these things like the Thucydides trap

297
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 14: or you know, the fentanyl is the opium war things

298
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:52,160
Speaker 14: like that that put you on the back foot and

299
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 14: make it so that you're not looking at China as

300
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 14: its own thing, but you get caught up in these

301
00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 14: other intellectual eddies that can paralyze you or whip you

302
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 14: in circles, or give justification to not just say, hold

303
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 14: on a second, this is absolutely wrong and it has

304
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 14: to be stopped.

305
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 2: By the way, look at that magnificent shot right there,

306
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 2: right next to the Truman The President and I states

307
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 2: Commander in Chief will be there momentarily tay what we're

308
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 2: gonna try to fit in one more commercial break. The

309
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 2: President and I States, I think will be arriving momentarily

310
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 2: going to give remarks to a combination of sailors and

311
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 2: officers and family members and other interested personages. Incredible Day

312
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 2: Navy two fifty a commemoration and celebration of the two

316
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,479
Speaker 1: We'll be right back with more Navy two point fifty

317
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:11,000

00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: Gold Group for standing with rav.

319
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 2: Let's go to Let's go listen to some music from

320
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,639
Speaker 2: the Navy band. I believe the Commander in Chief has arrived,

321
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 2: not on the osprey. I might mention, I'm not digging,

322
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,640
Speaker 2: I'm not dinging the osprey. But it was Cleo Pascal

323
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 2: that did mention that they put the media on it.

324
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 2: Let that be her quote. There is there's commander in

325
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,919
Speaker 2: chief right there. We're coming in.

326
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 5: I mean it is.

327
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 2: Steve Good got to go to bertin group of sad

328
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 2: the Fleet out of Norfolk, Virginia, the Atlantic Fleet. Captain

329
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 2: Fanel and Ermerald Masso myself were Pacific Fleet sailors. The fleet,

330
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 2: the Seventh Fleet, the historic Seventh Fleet that won the

331
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,680
Speaker 2: war in the Pacific, and really traditions of that fleet

332
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,679
Speaker 2: are just amazing. The history of it, the customs and

333
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 2: traditions of it just absolutely extraordinary. Ermald Masso, your thoughts, Yeah,

334
00:26:45,200 --> 00:27:09,159
Speaker 2: we still, Erald Massa, I think we corrected your We

335
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 2: got your microphone work and any any thoughts on this

336
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,199
Speaker 2: as you watch the Commander in Chief, I think has

337
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 2: arrived at the Truman about to address the Atlantic Fleet sailors.

338
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 10: Well, I think that these sailors are hungry for the

339
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 10: type of leadership that he's been providing. And I know

340
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 10: that there's an air of excitement and pride and and

341
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 10: we you know, they love the Navy and there's no

342
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 10: better way to celebrate a birthday than, you know, with

343
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,959
Speaker 10: the Commander in Chief sharing it with him. So I

344
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:48,919
Speaker 10: know that they're they're probably hyper excited about this, and

345
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 10: I know that he will not disappoint.

346
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 2: Emal. We did have a just a demonstrable fact, we

347
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 2: did have an issue with recruiting right for a couple

348
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,479
Speaker 2: of years there it's kind of been sorted out. What

349
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 2: are your thoughts about.

350
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 10: That, Well, this is kind of a big deal and

351
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 10: it really reflects what the remarks of the Secretary of

352
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 10: War express last week to the generals and admirals and

353
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 10: and basically the recruiting was, you know, we didn't we

354
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 10: didn't have a substantial mission. You know, there was no

355
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 10: active war in Iraq or in Afghanistan, and so a

356
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 10: lot of people kind of lost interest in it. But

357
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 10: you know, more specifically, in the absence of recruiting, we

358
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 10: had to compromise some of the standards that were elucidated

359
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 10: by the Secretary of War as being unacceptable fat sailors,

360
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 10: you know, this type of thing. And it used to

361
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 10: be that if you failed to fitness tests, then you

362
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 10: were sent home. And and and what we changed that

363
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 10: to be is because we couldn't afford to lose some

364
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 10: of these sailors because there's nobody in the pipe line

365
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 10: replacing them. We we we didn't send them home, we

366
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 10: just wouldn't promote them. So so this this was a

367
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 10: big departure. And I think a lot of people will

368
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 10: clamor for this to be implemented immediately, if not sooner,

369
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 10: because it was compromising you know, combat readiness and and so.

370
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 10: And now recruiting is better. For the first time in

371
00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 10: a number of years, we're able to make our numbers

372
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,239
Speaker 10: and not do it with fancy NASCAR programs and all

373
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 10: these kind of things. People are here serving for all

374
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 10: the reasons they always served, to learn a trade, to

375
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 10: serve their country, to make themselves better, to see the world.

376
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 10: And uh, and I think we're back in business with that.

377
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 10: That that way forward.

378
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 2: Okay, let's go, let's let's pull in on the Navy band.

379
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 15: Uh.

380
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 2: Here we come right here. I think it's Doug con Ones.

381
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 2: This is in the Navy band. A super bank going on.

382
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 16: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the Chief of Naval Operations,

383
00:30:38,560 --> 00:31:27,760

Speaker 17: remains the pre eminent maritime naval force. Governor, Lieutenant Governor,

394

Speaker 17: and Members of Congress, thank you for being here today.

395
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 17: After seeing today's display of naval power and standing on

396
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 17: this pier surrounded by sailors, marines, family members, and patriotic Americans,

397
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 17: all I can say is that was damn impressive.

398
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 5: Come on, give them ahead. Bravo Zulu.

399
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,719
Speaker 17: To the sailors that participated in today's see demonstration. It

400
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 17: is the honor and privilege of my lifetime to serve

401
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 17: as your seventy nights Secretary of the Navy, especially as

402
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 17: we kick off the Navy's two hundred and fiftieth birthday celebrations.

403
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 17: Thank you, President Trump for your trust and confidence in me.

404
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 17: Mister President, your directive is clear, peace through strength, and

405
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 17: we are executing it. With your one Big, Beautiful Bill

406
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 17: and your Executive Order on Restoring America's Maritime dominance. You've

407
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 17: armed us with the authorities, resources, and urgency to modernize

408
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 17: the fleet, expand our shipyards, rebuild the skilled workforce, deepen

409
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 17: our magazines, and harden the infrastructure that wins wars at sea.

410
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 5: Two hundred and fifty.

411
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 17: Years ago, the Continental Congress made a bold bet. Who

412
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:13,280
Speaker 17: controls the seas controls the future. This was the birth

413
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 17: of our navy, a testament to our historic significance. The

414
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 17: Constitution states Congress law of the power to provide and

415
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 17: maintain a navy. The word maintained means the Navy is

416
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 17: intended to be a permanent, continuous institution of national defense

417
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:32,320
Speaker 17: and warfare. The founders understood the importance of having a navy.

418
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 17: George Washington, in a letter to the Marquis de Lafayette, wrote,

419
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 17: as certain as Knight succeeds the day, without a decisive

420
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 17: naval force, we can do nothing definitive, and with it

421
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 17: everything honorable and glorious. Today, two hundred and fifty years later,

422
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 17: history has proven to be has proven that to be

423
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 17: a superpower, one must be a sea power. Mister President,

424
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 17: your mandate ensures that when the world looks to the seas,

425
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 17: it sees an American flag, and behind that flag stands

426
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 17: a team that is disciplined, lethal, and dominant. Today we

427
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:12,279
Speaker 17: showed the world what American seapower means. Deadly precision, meticulous execution,

428
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 17: raw power, and the will to use it. Secretary Hecseth,

429
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 17: we are restoring the warrio ethos to this department of

430
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 17: the Navy, not by slogan, by by performance. The Truman

431
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 17: right here beside me sustained more than fifty days of

432
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 17: Tomahawk launches and precision airstrikes to degrade or Ran back

433
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 17: to hooty capabilities and protect commercial shipping during Operation rough Rider.

434
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,880
Speaker 17: There are many many missions that we are operating and

435
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 17: executing on very well, including choking off cartel cash flows.

436
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 17: Between Operation Atlantic and Pacific Watch, we've sieved over four

437
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 17: hundred We've seized over four hundred and fifty metric tons

438
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 17: of cocaine worth more than eleven billion dollars. These seizures

439
00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 17: represent live saved. All these operations show us our fleet

440
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 17: is ready to answer the nation's call twenty four to seven.

441
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:06,720
Speaker 5: Three sixty five.

442
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 17: The remarkable success is a testament to the bold vision

443
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,479
Speaker 17: of President Trump, whose leadership is ignited a renewed sense

444
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 17: of patriotism, inserting more Americans to serve. I'm happy to

445
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 17: say the Navy broke its recruiting record four months early,

446
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 17: so help is on the way for the high operating

447
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:32,359
Speaker 17: tempo you've been living through. To our marines standing in

448
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 17: the line with us, your grit and discipline give us

449
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,920
Speaker 17: a fighting force no adversary can match.

450
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:38,400
Speaker 5: Warfighters.

451
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 17: You are the backbone of this maritime strength, keeping our

452
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:45,439
Speaker 17: nation safe and secure and prosperous. You prove every day

453
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:50,359
Speaker 17: freedom isn't free. President Trump thanks you. Secretary, heg says,

454
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 17: thanks you. I thank you, and your country thanks you.

455
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,840
Speaker 17: We appreciate the sacrifice you and your families make, and

456
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 17: we value your underwavering commitment to the mission. Seapower is

457
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 17: a family business. Your sacrifices are not unnoticed and they

458
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 17: are deeply appreciated. They may wear the uniform, but you

459
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 17: share the honor and we share the pride. God bless you,

460
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 17: God bless our Navy and Marine Corps, and God blessed

461
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 17: the United States of America.

462
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 18: Thank you, Secretary of the Navy.

463
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:36,440
Speaker 2: With appropriate remarks. As we say navy band playing, I

464
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 2: don't know that's a Navy band. That might be pipe ting,

465
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 2: because I think that might be the I think that

466
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 2: actually might be the Naval Academy Glee Club, which does

467
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 2: such a magnificent job on these songs of the Navy. Okay,

468
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,680

Speaker 8: I'll get something up.

485
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 2: Your present because people know this is not not exactly

486
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 2: it's not my favorite style of music, but we'll get

487
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,600
Speaker 2: to maybe some maybe have a sea chant here or something. Uh,

488
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 2: Secretary of Navy, I don't know. I think it's I'm

489
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 2: not so sure Pete's down there. It wasn't Pete at

490
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 2: the Navy football game. I gotta get on MO about

491
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,799
Speaker 2: this Army Navy game that's coming up. Navy looks pretty

492
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:46,399
Speaker 2: daggone good heck of a heck of a football team.

493
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:47,919
Speaker 2: I think some of the media is getting to play

494
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 2: some of the other people in the presidential party obviously

495
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 2: coming down. That's a shot you have there we're awaiting, uh,

496
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 2: the introduction. I believe its next is going to be

497
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 2: the Commander in Chief of First Lady Commander Chief going

498
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 2: to give his remarks. We're pretty close to being on time.

499
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 2: Give them the fact had to go out to the

500
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 2: Virginia Capes and do the exercise, the naval warfare exercise.

501
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 2: Just want to give a compliment. I really want to

502
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 2: thank the United States Navy for giving us that footage

503
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 2: in real America's voice, all the work and to tell

504
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,439
Speaker 2: you about how great the rev and the war room

505
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 2: team are. I think we got to go ahead, or

506
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 2: got really the signal that this is actually going to happen.

507
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 2: Basically Thursday, when it was kind of locked in. I

508
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:32,280
Speaker 2: think the President was going to go down to Norfolk

509
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,400
Speaker 2: speak before, but they changed the schedule round. The President

510
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 2: has wanted to do this as Admiral Masso and Cleo

511
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:43,440
Speaker 2: and Captain Fanev talked about the Great White Fleet, the

512
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:48,360
Speaker 2: review by President Roosevelt and really the rise of the

513
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 2: United States is a global power in the Spanish American

514
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 2: War and how that was. Decisions were made in the

515
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:58,320
Speaker 2: late nineteenth century about building a global navy, and Teddy

516
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,239
Speaker 2: Roosevelt was famously as an I think under Secretary of

517
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 2: the Navy took a bunch. It took a lot, made

518
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 2: a lot of moves to make that happen the Navy

519
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:10,279
Speaker 2: as an institution, and he didn't ask permission. He just

520
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 2: went ahead and did it. Getting ready now, I think

521
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:16,359
Speaker 2: that's Monica, Ambassador Crowley getting ready for the President United

522
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 2: States to come. We're going to jump to that live

523
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,760
Speaker 2: here momentarily, still members of his party and others coming

524
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,439
Speaker 2: down making sure they gets see. I think a lot

525
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 2: of corors do we have Steve Gruber? No, Gruber. Of course,

526
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 2: getting a signal down there right now is very hard,

527
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 2: as you can imagine given all the communications going on.

528
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 2: You talk about institutions, One of the most impressive institutions

529
00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:44,719
Speaker 2: and mankind's history has been the Royal Navy. What the

530
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 2: Royal Navy did to really build and expand the British Empire.

531
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:55,480
Speaker 2: And that's what's so incredibly impressive about the United States Navy. Come,

532
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 2: Captain Morgan, you're still with us, Paul, You've had to

533
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 2: basically lead young men and motivate young men as a

534
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,799
Speaker 2: helicopter pilot and doing are the things you had to

535
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,919
Speaker 2: do in your detachment, your squadron. Talk to me about

536
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 2: recruiting now today, young sailors, what is the pitch to

537
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:19,399
Speaker 2: a young sailor, a young seventeen eighteen year old kid

538
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 2: in thinking about coming into the United States Navy.

539
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,440
Speaker 13: You know, that's a really interesting question. A lot of

540
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 13: my son's friends, my son at the v and I,

541
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 13: their naval officers, Marine Corps officers. A lot of them

542
00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 13: left early and as soon as they could.

543
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 9: That's over.

544
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:41,480
Speaker 13: They're now deciding to stay and their message. I'm sixty

545
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:43,560
Speaker 13: eight years old. My message is going to fall on

546
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 13: deaf ears. But the young officers and the senior enlisted

547
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 13: I have a story to tell now that's very, very positive,

548
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,799
Speaker 13: and I think the impact of recruiting is going to

549
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 13: be great. I would like to address Admiral Masso's comments

550
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:03,360
Speaker 13: about air deats and how professional they were. He clearly

551
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 13: never cruised with me, so I just wanted.

552
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:05,919
Speaker 9: To lay that out there.

553
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:07,359
Speaker 5: One last thing.

554
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,799
Speaker 13: The president only flies on white top aircraft. So the

555
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,920
Speaker 13: osprey is green top. The sixty that you saw as

556
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 13: a white top, that's what they call the white tops.

557
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:20,240
Speaker 13: They're the presidential birds.

558
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 2: Explain that to people. Explain that for a second, about that,

559
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 2: about what that means.

560
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:28,400
Speaker 5: Well, the white Tops.

561
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,360
Speaker 13: I did a tour as the chief pilot at the

562
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 13: Sikorski factory for three years, and we did all the

563
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 13: maintenance on the Presidential Age threes. I wouldn't even look

564
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 13: at them, Steve. I mean, they're just they're so nice

565
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 13: and they're so pristine, but they are maintained to a

566
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 13: standard that's really unbelievable. And the HMX one guys, who

567
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 13: are the Marine Corps pilots that fly them, they just

568
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 13: show up and take parts. Nobody even questions. It's a

569
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:54,120
Speaker 13: beautiful thing. And so the white Tops are special airplanes.

570
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 13: I did my initial night vision goggle calls with HIMX

571
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:01,440
Speaker 13: one and it was in green board cists. So I

572
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 13: didn't mean to disparate to be twenty two.

573
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 5: I'm so sorry it was I didn't.

574
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:05,399
Speaker 9: Know that that went.

575
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,120
Speaker 5: No, no, no, it was it.

576
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 2: Was Cleo that put in the kill shot on the media. Okay,

577
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 2: let's go, let's do it, let's go live.

578
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:45,320
Speaker 21: My goodness, Well, good afternoon. How are we doing, Sailors

579
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,120
Speaker 21: the absolute best of America. I'm honored to be at

580
00:44:57,160 --> 00:45:00,399
Speaker 21: the world's largest naval base. Now I'm the only thing

581
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:03,319
Speaker 21: between you, the first Lady and the commander of Chief.

582
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 21: So I'm gonna keep this very brief. Looking out at

583
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 21: all of you, I know.

584
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:09,080
Speaker 8: You know why.

585
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 21: The President always says we have the strongest, most powerful,

586
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 21: most lethal, most ready military on the planet, and he's

587
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 21: gonna make sure.

588
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:19,439
Speaker 8: We keep it that way.

589
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 21: This is the perfect way to mark two hundred and

590
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 21: fifty years of the United States Navy. You know, President

591
00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 21: Trump has made our mission clear, America first, and peace

592
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 21: through strength with common sense at every turn. At the

593
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 21: War Department, it is the War Department. We're committed to

594
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 21: that core mission of peace through strength, and for the Navy,

595
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 21: that means more sailors, more subs, more ships, and more

596
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 21: munitions for all of them.

597
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 5: The Navy and the.

598
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 21: Marine Corps embody the resilience of our country. Nobody, nobody

599
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,280
Speaker 21: in the world does it better than the United States Navy.

600
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 21: Always remember this.

601
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:05,720
Speaker 5: Fact.

602
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 21: You're not civilians. You are different sailors, seals, marines. You

603
00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:17,319
Speaker 21: were set apart for a distinct purpose. Your diversity is

604
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:21,520
Speaker 21: not your strength. Your strength is your unity of purpose,

605
00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 21: your shared mission, your love of country. Generation after generation,

606
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 21: battle after battle, ship after ship, sailor after sailor, you

607
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 21: have set the tone. The story began with John Paul

608
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 21: Jones when he declared, I have not yet begun to fight.

609
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:44,160
Speaker 5: Today.

610
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 21: We have a commander in chief who fights for all

611
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:51,879
Speaker 21: of you and fights for our country every single day.

612
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,799
Speaker 21: A commander in chief who guarantees that you, the warfighters,

613
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 21: have everything you need on the high seas to deter

614
00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 21: our end enemies and if necessary win overwhelmingly. We have

615
00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:10,280
Speaker 21: a president who appreciates your dedication. He appreciates your service,

616
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 21: your sacrifice, and that of your family as well. And

617
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,880
Speaker 21: as I always tell every service member, every.

618
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 5: Sailor, I see, he has your back.

619
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,040
Speaker 21: So war fighters, on behalf of every one of the

00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:11,040
Speaker 2: heggses right there, we're waiting. Secretary Navy Pete. Amazing talk,

630
00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:14,160
Speaker 2: very motivational this week. I think you got people's attention,

631
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,840
Speaker 2: Abro Masso did did the secretary were your flag officer?

632
00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:19,800
Speaker 2: Did you get the flag officer's attention this week?

633
00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:22,959
Speaker 5: Well, I don't know.

634
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 10: That it was a function of getting their attention. I

635
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 10: think that he wanted to speak from the heart on

636
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:33,359
Speaker 10: some things that he wanted to address versus standards, and

637
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 10: he wanted to return to a warrior ethos, And I think, yeah,

638
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 10: I think I think people paid attention. They got it.

639
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 10: They are smart men and women, and they know how

640
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 10: to proceed from here. So I think it was a

641
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 10: solid message, well delivered, and it left no doubt into

642
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:57,479
Speaker 10: what his strategic intent is for the behavior of all

643
00:48:58,040 --> 00:48:59,240
Speaker 10: battlegroup staffs.

644
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:04,799
Speaker 2: You know, as we go forward, perfect hangover second, we're

645
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 2: about to have the Commander in Chief and the first

646
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:10,400
Speaker 2: lady Navy band will strike up the Commander Chief's the

647
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:12,920
Speaker 2: counters song, and then we'll go President Trump's going to

648
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 2: give remarks. If I know President Trump, I believe he

649
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 2: may go off with the glass. What we say away

650
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 2: from prepared remarks, things going to be very enthusiastic. He's

651
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 2: wanted this day to come for a long time. Sonny,

652
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,359
Speaker 2: You're so right about Teddy Roosevelt, Captain Finul, President Trump

653
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 2: and his enthusiasm. I think the very first Steve Gruber

654
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,799
Speaker 2: said it best today had that Steve Gruber felt like

655
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:36,680
Speaker 2: a twelve year old. He was so excited to see

656
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 2: this kind of operation, to see the pride of the sailors,

657
00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:42,439
Speaker 2: to see the pride of the fleet, to see not

658
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:45,320
Speaker 2: just the weapons but the precision that the Navy training

659
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 2: has where officers and analysta has just been absolutely incredible.

660
00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:53,879
Speaker 2: And I'm sure the President has that enthusiasm as with him.

661
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,479
Speaker 2: This is something he's wanted to do for a long

662
00:49:56,560 --> 00:50:01,240
Speaker 2: time and actually is doing it very close to where

663
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:05,879
Speaker 2: Teddy Roosevelt reviewed the Great White Fleet, which was really

664
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,440
Speaker 2: America sending a signal to the world. We are a

665
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 2: global power, and we intend to comport ourselves as a

666
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 2: global power, and we're going to put the resources necessary

667
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 2: to become a global power. So it's been an extraordinary

668
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 2: day so far. President there. Normally beforehand, when you see

669
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 2: the President, he's always runs a few minutes later. On

670
00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 2: this he's more than likely talking to enlist the men

671
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 2: and some of the crew. He always does a meet

672
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:37,360
Speaker 2: and greet beforehand where he will meet people from the

673
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 2: local community. It's pretty extraordinary because given the fact you

674
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:41,719
Speaker 2: got to think about a speech and you're about to

675
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:45,959
Speaker 2: address not just ten thousand people live, but the entire world,

676
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,600
Speaker 2: and both our allies and our enemies will be watching

677
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:54,480
Speaker 2: this speech. The president always takes time to spend x

678
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:58,320
Speaker 2: amount of time beforehand to do a meet and greet,

679
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,239
Speaker 2: meet local people, etc. I'm sure right now he is

680
00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:04,360
Speaker 2: talking to some of the some of the sailors of

681
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:08,960
Speaker 2: the of the Truman. Captain Fanel, give it. Give me

682
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:11,440
Speaker 2: your assessment so far. We're getting ready for the address

683
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:16,040
Speaker 2: by the Commander in chief to the assembled enlisted, me

684
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,040
Speaker 2: in and crew of the ships at the naval station.

685
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:19,399
Speaker 2: How do you think it's gone so far?

686
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,440
Speaker 12: Well, I think it's a fantastics team and on this

687
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,480
Speaker 12: issue of spirit and pride in our nation and our

688
00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:30,440

00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:34,160
Speaker 12: was sevent.

691
00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:40,840

Speaker 22: Was officially established.

699
00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 23: Generations of sailors have kept America free because of their

700
00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:57,000
Speaker 23: presence on the high seas. Your strength, bravery, and sacrifice

701
00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 23: inspires us all. The President and I just attend an

703
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:15,520
Speaker 23: very best of our Navy. For me, it brought the

704
00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:21,680
Speaker 23: back phone memories of my visit to the USS George H. W.

705
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:23,680
Speaker 22: Bush in twenty eighteen.

706
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:28,839

707
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:34,120
Speaker 23: sailors I met on that vessel. I witness the enduring

708
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:39,800

Speaker 25: no one should ever want to start a fight with

785
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:14,400
Speaker 25: the USA. They won't fight. We're putting out a lot

786
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:16,120
Speaker 25: of fights. So do you see that we're going to

787
01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:17,280

01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:18,400
Speaker 5: Number eight.

789
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:23,360

01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:37,840
Speaker 25: I'm solving them, we solve seven. We have another one

797
01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:40,600
Speaker 25: that's taken three thousand years and we're pretty close.

798
01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:42,960
Speaker 5: But I don't want to talk about it until it's done.

01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:20,400
Speaker 25: motto that captures the spirit of America's navy.

805
01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:21,800
Speaker 5: It's very simple.

806
01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:27,080
Speaker 25: The words give them hell, and we do give them.

807
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:30,200

808
01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:35,440
Speaker 25: generation of American sellers have done. You've conquered raging oceans

809

Speaker 25: and brave ferotia storms to vanquish America's enemies or the

810
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:44,400
Speaker 25: high seas and distant shores. You've beaten mighty warships into

811
01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 25: twisted wrecks of steel. You've splintered vest our matters and

812
01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:53,800
Speaker 25: sent the mangled pride of Empires sinking into oblivion. You've

813
01:01:53,840 --> 01:01:59,000
Speaker 25: surged the water's thick danger blood brine, and through it all.

814
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:02,280
Speaker 25: The United States Navy has kept the stars and stripes

815
01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:07,080
Speaker 25: soaring high and proud above those big, magnificent waves. You

Speaker 25: You're so lucky because the American sailer never quits, never fails,

823
01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:30,720
Speaker 25: and never ever lets us down.

824
01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:31,959
Speaker 5: They've never let us down.

829
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 25: Surface warriors are the reason America's enemies tremble at the

830
01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:54,760
Speaker 25: side of a Navy ship Hayes gray or underway the

831
01:02:54,800 --> 01:03:00,480
Speaker 25: Insinus carrier, cruiser or destroyer breaks across the horizon. Every

832
01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:05,320
Speaker 25: tyrant and adversary on the planet knows their choices very simple.

833
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:09,440
Speaker 25: It's leave America in peace or be blown up in

834
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:17,200
Speaker 25: fire and fury never seen before. All over the world,

835
01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:20,720
Speaker 25: people know of the skill, nerve, swagger. It's your attitude.

836
01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:24,120
Speaker 25: Of the boldest and most daring pilots on the sea.

837
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:27,800
Speaker 25: The US Naval aviators and I just got to witness

838
01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:31,960
Speaker 25: it with Milania. They land screaming jets on pitching decks

839
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:34,720
Speaker 25: in the dark of night, with no room for era.

840
01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:37,280
Speaker 5: There is no room for era. The greatest pilots in

841
01:03:37,320 --> 01:03:37,760
Speaker 5: the world.

842
01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:41,880
Speaker 25: And while Navy pilots rain down pain from above, the

843
01:03:41,920 --> 01:03:46,440
Speaker 25: greatest adversaries fear the daring deeds of our silence service below.

844
01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:03,400
Speaker 25: They prowl and strike from crushing depths, unseen, undetected, and unstoppable.

845
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:08,600
Speaker 25: They are our brave submariners. Where are the submariners there?

846
01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:11,960
Speaker 5: And they are brave.

847
01:04:14,160 --> 01:04:16,600
Speaker 25: The most lethal weapon in the world, I will tell

848
01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:19,480
Speaker 25: you nobody knows where it is and what it carries.

849
01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:23,520
Speaker 25: Is nothing that carries weaponry like that. And we're twenty

850
01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:25,959
Speaker 25: five years ahead of any other country when it comes

851
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:26,640
Speaker 25: to submarines.

852
01:04:26,720 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 5: Nobody's even close. Nobody can match us.

853
01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:33,560
Speaker 25: No roll call of Navy warriors would be complete without

854
01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:38,080
Speaker 25: recognizing some of the fiercest and most elite commandos in

855
01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:42,080
Speaker 25: the history of war. They are the toughest, and there's

856

01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:52,000

941
01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:54,280
Speaker 25: you have to be today in Congress if you're gonna

942
01:09:54,320 --> 01:09:57,160
Speaker 25: make it. I also want to recognize all of the

943
01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:59,120
Speaker 25: newly epinned chief petty officers.

944
01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:01,479
Speaker 5: You got a lot of them here today. I had

945
01:10:01,479 --> 01:10:02,320
Speaker 5: to approve it.

946
01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:07,840

Speaker 5: Thank you, Navy chiefs.

949
01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:15,840
Speaker 25: Let's also express the gratitude of our entire nation to

950
01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:19,479
Speaker 25: every Navy veteran who has come out to honor this

951
01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:23,760
Speaker 25: big anniversary. We see so many veterans I saw backstage.

952
01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:26,400
Speaker 25: I was shaking hands with veterans all over the place,

953
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:30,200
Speaker 25: and they are great, and they're respected, and they're loved.

954
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,960
Speaker 5: Thank you very much. Stand up if you'd like. Thank

955
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:43,080
Speaker 5: you very much. They're really loved. I saw it backstage.

956
01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:46,679
Speaker 5: I saw so many veterans in my hand. Will never

957
01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:49,559
Speaker 5: be the same. Thank you very much.

958
01:10:49,600 --> 01:10:52,040
Speaker 25: A great honor and a very special thanks to the

959
01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:56,360
Speaker 25: countless Navy families who support our sailors with such love

960
01:10:56,360 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 25: and devotion. None of what are and think of this.

961
01:11:00,840 --> 01:11:03,800
Speaker 25: Without them, you wouldn't be celebrating. Many of you would

962
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:06,320
Speaker 25: not be doing very well. Male or female, you wouldn't

963
01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:08,360
Speaker 25: be doing very well. So we want to thank our

964
01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:12,200
Speaker 25: family members, right, all of them, parents, husbands.

965
01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:15,320
Speaker 5: Wives, thank you, Thank you very much.

966
01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:21,559
Speaker 25: From the American Revolution until today, the story of the

967
01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:25,720
Speaker 25: US Navy is a tale of loyalty, sacrifice, and commitment,

968
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:29,760
Speaker 25: stretching back two hundred and fifty years. So we're celebrating

969
01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:32,840
Speaker 25: to fifty. I almost thought I wouldn't get to do

970
01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:38,040
Speaker 25: that because I was president in twenty sixteen and then

971
01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:43,080
Speaker 25: they rigged the election on me, and then.

972
01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:44,680
Speaker 5: We caught them. Didn't the way we caught them, but

973
01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:46,800
Speaker 5: you know, we had to run it again. I'd ranted again.

974
01:11:46,840 --> 01:11:48,920
Speaker 25: And I got two fifty, and I got the World Cup,

975
01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:50,000
Speaker 25: and I got the Olympics.

976
01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:51,120
Speaker 5: Can you believe all of it?

977
01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:57,240
Speaker 25: In my first term, I was the one that got

978
01:11:57,280 --> 01:11:57,920
Speaker 25: the Olympics.

979
01:11:57,960 --> 01:11:59,639
Speaker 5: I was the one that got the World Cup.

980
01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:02,960
Speaker 25: And I said, you know, the sad part is maybe

981
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:05,120
Speaker 25: i'll go. Maybe I won't even be invited because it

982
01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:07,880
Speaker 25: won't be during my term. I would say, if we're

983
01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:09,599
Speaker 25: a Democrat, that might not be invited.

984
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:11,439
Speaker 5: They don't love me exactly too much.

985
01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:13,800
Speaker 25: And then when this happened, now, all of a sudden

986
01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:15,880
Speaker 25: they got all three. But you know what's the most

987
01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:19,799
Speaker 25: important two hundred and fifty years is the most important

988
01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:21,559
Speaker 25: above World Cup, above Olympic.

989
01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:23,760
Speaker 5: But we got them all.

990
01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:30,160
Speaker 25: Come and in June fourteenth next year, we're going to

991
01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:33,840
Speaker 25: have a big UFC fight at the White House, right

992
01:12:33,880 --> 01:12:34,960
Speaker 25: at the White House, on.

993
01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:36,200
Speaker 5: The grounds of the White House.

994
01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:44,040
Speaker 25: When the Continental Congress formed a fleet of just two

995
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:48,400
Speaker 25: ships in October seventeen seventy five, many scoffed at their

996
01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:51,960
Speaker 25: chances against the most powerful empire on earth, that was

997
01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:55,839
Speaker 25: the most powerful ever relatively speaking.

998
01:12:56,479 --> 01:12:58,840
Speaker 5: We had two ships. We had nothing other, but we

999
01:12:58,880 --> 01:12:59,679
Speaker 5: had great heart.

1000
01:13:00,880 --> 01:13:03,240
Speaker 25: They didn't know the audacity and the grit of the

1001
01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:04,200
Speaker 25: American sailor.

1002
01:13:04,240 --> 01:13:05,160
Speaker 5: They had no idea.

1003
01:13:05,240 --> 01:13:07,759
Speaker 25: The War for Independence gave us some of the greatest

1004
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:11,720
Speaker 25: American heroes of all time, including the father of the

1005
01:13:11,840 --> 01:13:13,440
Speaker 25: US Navy, Captain.

1006
01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:14,839
Speaker 5: John Paul Jones.

1007
01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:18,840
Speaker 25: You know that one of far stronger British ship demanded

1008
01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:23,320
Speaker 25: his surrender. Jones yelled back that timeless battle cry. Right now,

1009
01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:26,760
Speaker 25: I have not yet begun to fight. Don't ask me

1010
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:27,160
Speaker 25: for that.

1011
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:27,840
Speaker 5: Think of that.

1012
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:31,080
Speaker 25: I can just see it. He's a wise guy. He's

1013
01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:32,120
Speaker 25: asking I haven't.

1014
01:13:31,880 --> 01:13:34,040
Speaker 5: Even begun to fight. And he knocked the hell out

1015
01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:37,800
Speaker 5: of him. In the War of eighteen twelve, Captain James.

1016
01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:41,200
Speaker 25: Lawrence shouted his final words to his crew as blood

1017
01:13:41,240 --> 01:13:45,759
Speaker 25: streamed down from his mortal wounds. Fight her till she sinks,

1018
01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:48,439
Speaker 25: he yelled, don't give up the ship.

1019
01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:49,760
Speaker 5: Don't give up the ship.

1020
01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:54,040
Speaker 25: These are all incredible, very very famous statements now with

1021
01:13:54,160 --> 01:13:56,240
Speaker 25: years and time, very famous.

1022
01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:58,360
Speaker 5: Don't give up the ship. I say it all the time.

1023
01:13:58,880 --> 01:14:01,200
Speaker 5: You're a little behind us. They don't give up this ship,

1024
01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:04,439
Speaker 5: and we win. We all not a win today.

1025
01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:07,360
Speaker 25: That eternal creed is written into the hearts of every

1026
01:14:07,640 --> 01:14:08,599
Speaker 25: sailor in the fleet.

1027
01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:12,680
Speaker 5: America's navy never ever gives up the ship, right, we

1028
01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:14,719
Speaker 5: never give it up. Another titan of.

1029
01:14:14,640 --> 01:14:19,559
Speaker 25: The early navy was the great Commodore Author Sinclair. He

1030
01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:23,439
Speaker 25: defeated the French in the Caribbean Battle, and then he

1031
01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:26,519
Speaker 25: went to work on the Barbary pirates off the coast

1032
01:14:26,520 --> 01:14:30,080
Speaker 25: of Tripoli and raided British forces when they were so

1033
01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:33,200
Speaker 25: powerful in eighteen twelve, the War of eighteen twelve.

1034
01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:36,479
Speaker 5: He raided them. He was knocking them out one by one.

1035
01:14:36,680 --> 01:14:39,920
Speaker 25: Everyone said, where does this guy come from? And we're

1036
01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:43,559
Speaker 25: all descendants when you think of it. Commodore Sinclair went

1037
01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:46,599
Speaker 25: on to become the commanding officer here at the Naval

1038
01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:50,439
Speaker 25: Station Norfolk, right here where he founded a nautical school

1039
01:14:50,479 --> 01:14:55,320
Speaker 25: for offices that eventually became the one and only US

1040
01:14:55,760 --> 01:15:06,280
Speaker 25: Naval Academy. And I'm gonna be at your Army Navy

1041
01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:07,120
Speaker 25: game this year.

1042
01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:13,400
Speaker 5: Who am I going to root for? You may be surprised.

1043
01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:16,840
Speaker 5: That's gonna be great. We're gonna be here.

1044
01:15:17,160 --> 01:15:21,919
Speaker 25: Generations of the Commodore's descendants are forged their own towering

1045
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:25,160
Speaker 25: legacies of service and the Navy. And we're joined today

1046
01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:31,439
Speaker 25: by his fifth great grandson, Commander Link Mustin. Where is Mustin?

1047
01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:34,760
Speaker 25: Commander Mustard, where are you? He said, Wow, look at

1048
01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:39,879
Speaker 25: this handsome guy. That's good genetics. He's got good genes.

1049
01:15:40,640 --> 01:15:44,680
Speaker 25: Thank you very much, commander, thank you for continuing a

1050
01:15:44,720 --> 01:15:47,080
Speaker 25: family tradition that has endured for.

1051
01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:49,720
Speaker 5: Two and a half centuries. Can you believe that?

1052
01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:50,320
Speaker 22: Huh?

1053
01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:52,600
Speaker 5: I wonder if they were as good looking as you.

1054
01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:55,839
Speaker 5: I doubt it. You just got better with age, right.

1055
01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:59,599
Speaker 25: Congratulate as that young man, your boy, well, he beats you,

1056
01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:04,360
Speaker 25: beat you. That's what we want to see over the generations.

1057
01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:08,559
Speaker 25: Our navy sailors raised Old Loriy above the streets. Vera Cruz,

1058
01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:12,120
Speaker 25: sent the Spanish fleet to its watery grave in Manila

1059
01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:16,799
Speaker 25: Bay and buried the vicious German wolfbacts at the bottom

1060
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:20,160
Speaker 25: of the sea. Those were vicious, vicious wolf packs.

1061
01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:22,840
Speaker 5: They were brutal. They were hitting us hard.

1062
01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:24,920
Speaker 25: And then we came up with the answer, didn't we

1063
01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:26,599
Speaker 25: We came up with the way to knock them out,

1064
01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:28,599
Speaker 25: and we were knocking them out so fast they didn't

1065
01:16:28,640 --> 01:16:29,240
Speaker 25: know what to do.

1066
01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:30,760
Speaker 5: It was really the end.

1067
01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:34,759
Speaker 25: Once we discovered the secret through some brilliant minds.

1068
01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:37,760
Speaker 5: A lot of them are descendants of the people here

1069
01:16:37,880 --> 01:16:40,000
Speaker 5: right now. In every era of.

1070
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:43,080
Speaker 25: Conflict, the Navy has never failed to hunt, kill and

1071
01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:45,559
Speaker 25: to win, never failed, never failed.

1072
01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:47,000
Speaker 5: In World War.

1073
01:16:46,880 --> 01:16:51,599
Speaker 25: Two, Admiral Bull Halsey's motto hit hard, hit fast, hit often,

1074
01:16:52,120 --> 01:16:55,200
Speaker 25: and that is exactly what the sailors do. One of

1075
01:16:55,240 --> 01:17:00,320
Speaker 25: those warriors was submarine Commander Eugene Fluky, who said more

1076
01:17:00,439 --> 01:17:03,439
Speaker 25: Japanese tonnage to the ocean floor than any other man

1077
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:06,559
Speaker 25: in history. I don't like to talk about it too much, now,

1078
01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:09,519
Speaker 25: you know, they've been a nice al abbat anybody from

1079
01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:14,040
Speaker 25: Japan here right now. We'll get off the subject immediately,

1080
01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:17,839
Speaker 25: but think of it. Sent more tonnage to this bottom

1081
01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:22,000
Speaker 25: of the sea. One after one, brought the famed USS barb.

1082
01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:25,360
Speaker 25: He destroyed a Japanese tanker and a carrier with a

1083
01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:26,760
Speaker 25: single salvo, to his.

1084
01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:31,240
Speaker 5: Men's chagrin. They were very concerned about it.

1085
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:33,120
Speaker 25: They didn't think we could do that, And he just

1086
01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:38,080
Speaker 25: knocked him out one after another and again torpedoes were flying.

1087
01:17:38,160 --> 01:17:41,479
Speaker 25: But his greatest feat came when he spotted thirty enemy

1088
01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:44,200
Speaker 25: ships at Port off the coast of China.

1089
01:17:44,280 --> 01:17:46,000
Speaker 5: You know that the very famous story.

1090
01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:50,639
Speaker 25: Commander Fluki ordered his men to their battle station, slipped

1091
01:17:50,640 --> 01:17:53,719
Speaker 25: into the Harbor and sank six vessels at one time

1092
01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:59,360
Speaker 25: before taking off into the beautiful, wild blue ocean. He

1093
01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:03,000
Speaker 25: received for Navy Crosses, the Legion of Merit and the

1094
01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:05,280
Speaker 25: Congressional Medal of Honor.

1095
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:07,240
Speaker 5: That was a brave guy, and.

1096
01:18:07,280 --> 01:18:11,799
Speaker 25: Recognition of the incredible achievements of the USS bar bunders Command.

1097
01:18:12,320 --> 01:18:15,560
Speaker 5: This December, we will lay the keel of a brand.

1098
01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:20,360
Speaker 25: New Virginia class submarine bearing that same legendary name, and

1099
01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:21,920
Speaker 25: his grandson.

1100
01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:24,840
Speaker 5: Tom will be there to pick it up.

1101
01:18:24,880 --> 01:18:27,200
Speaker 25: Tom is with us today and I want to thank

1102
01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:29,719
Speaker 25: you for keeping that great legacy around.

1103
01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:36,760
Speaker 5: Where is Tom? I'll look stand up Tom. Great good Tom.

1104
01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:37,360
Speaker 5: Thank you.

1105
01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:43,720
Speaker 25: That's good genes too, Tom, that's good stuff. Thank you

1106
01:18:43,800 --> 01:18:47,080
Speaker 25: very much both for being here from Midway to the

1107
01:18:47,160 --> 01:18:51,679
Speaker 25: Coral Seae to Leyte Gulf American Sellers for the most

1108
01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:55,280
Speaker 25: epic naval battles in history, and at Normandy, the Navy

1109
01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:58,400
Speaker 25: led the greatest armada ever formed to deliver the single

1110
01:18:58,479 --> 01:19:03,519
Speaker 25: largest invasion force the world has ever seen. One of

1111
01:19:03,560 --> 01:19:07,640
Speaker 25: the sailors who did it was Felix Maurizio, who were

1112
01:19:07,720 --> 01:19:11,160
Speaker 25: listed at age eighteen and trained right here in Norfolk Chain,

1113
01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:16,880
Speaker 25: right here on d Day June sixth, nineteen forty four,

1114
01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:21,760
Speaker 25: Felix band an amphibious landing craft that did six harrowing.

1115
01:19:21,400 --> 01:19:24,760
Speaker 5: Runs to Omaha Beach. You all know about it. These

1116
01:19:24,760 --> 01:19:26,080
Speaker 5: are all famous fights.

1117
01:19:26,720 --> 01:19:30,040
Speaker 25: He delivered hundreds of American troops into the battle, including

1118
01:19:30,080 --> 01:19:33,839
Speaker 25: his brother sal Felix lost so many of his friends

1119
01:19:33,840 --> 01:19:34,439
Speaker 25: that day.

1120
01:19:34,280 --> 01:19:35,160
Speaker 5: But he kept fighting.

1121
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:38,280
Speaker 25: He kept going out there, getting more soldiers, getting more

1122
01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:40,160
Speaker 25: of everything.

1123
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:41,519
Speaker 5: He just kept coming.

1124
01:19:41,560 --> 01:19:44,120
Speaker 25: They couldn't stop him, and went on to serve in

1125
01:19:44,160 --> 01:19:49,479
Speaker 25: the Pacific under the Great Admiral Nimitz. In February nineteen

1126
01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:52,799
Speaker 25: forty five, he spent his twenty first birthday landing marines

1127
01:19:52,880 --> 01:19:55,720
Speaker 25: on the blood soaked sands of Ewo Jima, one of

1128
01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:58,960
Speaker 25: the bloodiest toughest battles ever.

1129
01:20:00,360 --> 01:20:00,719
Speaker 5: Battle.

1130
01:20:01,280 --> 01:20:04,960
Speaker 25: Six months later, he was abroad the USS Talladega in

1131
01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:05,880
Speaker 25: Tokyo Bay.

1132
01:20:06,360 --> 01:20:07,760
Speaker 5: When Japan surrendered.

1133
01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:10,639
Speaker 25: They said, I don't think we want Felix hitting us anymore.

1134
01:20:11,320 --> 01:20:14,240
Speaker 25: And he retired as a Chief Petty Officer in nineteen

1135
01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:19,439
Speaker 25: sixty six. This year, Felix celebrated his one hundredth birthday,

1136
01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:23,040
Speaker 25: and he is here this afternoon as a living testament

1137
01:20:23,080 --> 01:20:25,439
Speaker 25: to the glory of the United States Navy.

1138
01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:51,320
Speaker 8: Wow, that's great.

1139
01:20:51,880 --> 01:20:54,280
Speaker 5: He looks good. Phelix, you look better than I do.

1140
01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:57,360
Speaker 5: I'm not I'm not happy about this, Felix.

1141
01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:01,080
Speaker 25: Now they don't want to mess around to them, and Felix,

1142
01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:02,679
Speaker 25: we salute you, thank you very much.

1143
01:21:02,840 --> 01:21:03,280
Speaker 5: Credible.

1144
01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:07,960
Speaker 25: One hundred years in Korea, American sailors and Marines carried

1145
01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:12,240
Speaker 25: out the Daring Landing and Incheon and flew more than

1146
01:21:12,320 --> 01:21:15,679
Speaker 25: a quarter of a million combat sorties.

1147
01:21:15,360 --> 01:21:18,639
Speaker 5: Against the enemy. It was an amazing effort.

1148
01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:23,320
Speaker 25: In Vietnam, the Navy unleashed Operation Rolling Thunder and deployed

1149
01:21:23,360 --> 01:21:26,519
Speaker 25: a brand new unit, the Navy Seals to tear up

1150
01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:32,120
Speaker 25: make Congriver Delta. Problem with Vietnam. We you know, we

1151
01:21:32,160 --> 01:21:34,360
Speaker 25: stopped fighting to win. We would have won easy. We

1152
01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:36,960
Speaker 25: would have won Afghanistan easy. We would have won every

1153
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:40,759
Speaker 25: war easy. But we got politically correct. Let's take it easy.

1154
01:21:41,840 --> 01:21:45,120
Speaker 25: It's we're not politically correct anymore. Just so you understand,

1155
01:21:45,240 --> 01:21:45,599
Speaker 25: we win.

1156
01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:46,880
Speaker 5: Now, we win.

1157
01:21:50,280 --> 01:21:54,360
Speaker 25: We don't want to be politically correct anymore. And history

1158
01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:57,240
Speaker 25: will never forget that it was the Seals who stormed

1159
01:21:57,240 --> 01:22:01,920
Speaker 25: the compound that Osama been and put a bullet in

1160
01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:05,479
Speaker 25: his head. Remember that, and please remember I wrote about

1161
01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:09,360
Speaker 25: Osama bin Laden exactly one year ago, one year before

1162
01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:12,599
Speaker 25: he blew up the World Trade Center, and I said,

1163
01:22:12,640 --> 01:22:16,400
Speaker 25: you gotta watch Osama bin Laden. And the fake news

1164
01:22:16,439 --> 01:22:18,719
Speaker 25: would never let me get away with that savement unless

1165
01:22:18,720 --> 01:22:21,000
Speaker 25: it is true. But I said one year before to

1166
01:22:21,080 --> 01:22:23,599
Speaker 25: Pete heck Saith, I said, one year before Wisby.

1167
01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:27,920
Speaker 5: In the book, I wrote, whatever the hell the title.

1168
01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:30,280
Speaker 25: I can't tell you, but I can tell you there's

1169
01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:32,519
Speaker 25: a page in there devoted to the fact that I

1170
01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:36,240
Speaker 25: saw somebody named Osama bin Laden and I didn't like it,

1171
01:22:36,280 --> 01:22:38,920
Speaker 25: and you gotta take care of him. They didn't do it.

1172
01:22:38,960 --> 01:22:41,080
Speaker 25: A year later he blew up the World Trade Center.

1173
01:22:41,160 --> 01:22:43,719
Speaker 25: So we've got to take a little credit because nobody

1174
01:22:43,720 --> 01:22:44,800
Speaker 25: else is going to give it to me.

1175
01:22:44,880 --> 01:22:45,880
Speaker 5: You know the old story.

1176
01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:49,680
Speaker 25: They don't give you credit, just take it yourself. And

1177
01:22:49,720 --> 01:22:52,839
Speaker 25: it was the US Navy that dumped his wretched corpse

1178
01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:56,040
Speaker 25: off the decks of the Carl Vincent to sink into

1179
01:22:56,120 --> 01:22:59,679
Speaker 25: the dark abyss. The Navy's central role in the defense

1180
01:22:59,720 --> 01:23:03,280
Speaker 25: of our liberty continues to this day. Just a few

1181
01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:07,160
Speaker 25: months ago, the Ohio class guided missile submarine played an

1182
01:23:07,200 --> 01:23:11,639
Speaker 25: indispensable part in one of the most spectacular military feats.

1183
01:23:11,680 --> 01:23:12,679
Speaker 5: The world has ever.

1184
01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:18,120
Speaker 25: Seen the obliteration of Irans nucleosytes in Operation Midnight Hammer.

1185
01:23:18,160 --> 01:23:19,160
Speaker 5: How did that work out?

1186
01:23:19,200 --> 01:23:19,679
Speaker 26: Pretty good?

1187
01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:19,920
Speaker 11: Right?

1188
01:23:26,960 --> 01:23:30,000
Speaker 25: And we shot thirty tomahawks, you know that leak on

1189
01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:31,679
Speaker 25: top of after the B two?

1190
01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:32,360
Speaker 5: How about that?

1191
01:23:32,439 --> 01:23:35,879
Speaker 25: The B two is what they did, those beautiful flying wings,

1192
01:23:36,720 --> 01:23:39,320
Speaker 25: what they did. They hit every single target they hit

1193
01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:43,200
Speaker 25: and just in case, we shot thirty tomahawks out of

1194
01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:46,439
Speaker 25: a submarine, every one of them hit two. So I

1195
01:23:46,439 --> 01:23:49,360
Speaker 25: would say Iran was not particularly thrilled they were going

1196
01:23:49,400 --> 01:23:52,160
Speaker 25: to have a nuclear weapon within a month and now

1197
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:53,800
Speaker 25: they can sort the operation.

1198
01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:54,160
Speaker 5: All over again.

1199
01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:55,920
Speaker 25: But I hope they don't because we'll have to take

1200
01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:57,519
Speaker 25: care of that too. If they do, I let them

1201
01:23:57,560 --> 01:23:59,720
Speaker 25: know that you want to do that, it's fine.

1202
01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:01,600
Speaker 5: We're going to take care of that, and we're not

1203
01:24:01,640 --> 01:24:02,559
Speaker 5: going to wait so long.

1204
01:24:02,800 --> 01:24:05,120
Speaker 25: It should have been done long before I came along.

1205
01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:08,240
Speaker 25: You know that I had the pilots of the B

1206
01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:11,000
Speaker 25: twos in my office, the famous Oval office.

1207
01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:13,600
Speaker 5: I had them in the B twos.

1208
01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:16,719
Speaker 25: They came in to the White House and we talked

1209
01:24:16,720 --> 01:24:18,439
Speaker 25: about it, and they said, you know, sir, for twenty

1210
01:24:18,479 --> 01:24:23,560
Speaker 25: two years, our predecessors and us trained.

1211
01:24:23,200 --> 01:24:25,439
Speaker 5: For that hit for twenty two years.

1212
01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:28,840
Speaker 25: They were training to take out the nuclear potential of Iran,

1213
01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:31,639
Speaker 25: he said, But it was only when you came along

1214
01:24:31,720 --> 01:24:34,400
Speaker 25: that we did it, and they were so happy that

1215
01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:36,240
Speaker 25: they did it. But they've been training for that hit

1216
01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:39,439
Speaker 25: for twenty two years, but no president wanted to do it.

1217
01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:41,960
Speaker 25: They would have had a nuclear weapon within a month,

1218
01:24:42,040 --> 01:24:45,760
Speaker 25: probably within a month or shortly thereafter, and speaking to

1219
01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:48,920
Speaker 25: them would have been much more difficult. In recent weeks,

1220
01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:53,400
Speaker 25: the Navy has supported our mission to blow the cartel.

1221
01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:54,920
Speaker 5: Terrasts the hell out of the water. You see that,

1222
01:25:02,160 --> 01:25:04,200
Speaker 5: and you know there are no boats in the water anymore.

1223
01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:06,599
Speaker 5: We can't find any. We'll have a hard time finding them.

1224
01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:11,120
Speaker 5: But you know, it's a pretty tough thing we've been doing.

1225
01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:12,679
Speaker 5: But you have to think of it this way.

1226
01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:16,759
Speaker 25: Every one of those boats is responsible for the death

1227
01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:22,120
Speaker 25: of twenty five thousand American people and the destruction of families.

1228
01:25:22,680 --> 01:25:24,320
Speaker 25: So when you think of it that way, what we're

1229
01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:28,840
Speaker 25: doing is actually an act of kindness. But we did

1230
01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:32,040
Speaker 25: another one last night. Now we just can't find any.

1231
01:25:32,080 --> 01:25:34,639
Speaker 25: You know, it's the old story. We're so good at

1232
01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:36,519
Speaker 25: it that there are no boats.

1233
01:25:36,600 --> 01:25:37,960
Speaker 5: In fact, even fishing boats.

1234
01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:40,200
Speaker 25: Nobody wants to go into the water anymore, sorry to

1235
01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:44,200
Speaker 25: tell you that, but we stop. We're stopping drugs coming

1236
01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:46,760
Speaker 25: into America, if that's okay. We're stopping drugs at a

1237
01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:50,599
Speaker 25: level that nobody's ever seen before. Last year we lost

1238
01:25:52,040 --> 01:25:55,599
Speaker 25: I believe, three hundred thousand people. And that's not talking

1239
01:25:55,640 --> 01:25:57,280
Speaker 25: about the destruction to families.

1240
01:25:57,320 --> 01:25:59,040
Speaker 5: Every one of us knows families.

1241
01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:02,160
Speaker 25: That have been destroyed because the son, daughter, even mothers

1242
01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:05,120
Speaker 25: and fathers are destroyed by the fentatyl pouring in and

1243
01:26:05,200 --> 01:26:09,080
Speaker 25: drugs pouring in. Well, they're not coming in by sea anymore,

1244
01:26:09,120 --> 01:26:11,519
Speaker 25: so now we'll have to start looking about the land

1245
01:26:11,680 --> 01:26:14,200
Speaker 25: because they'll be forced to go by land. And let

1246
01:26:14,240 --> 01:26:15,800
Speaker 25: me tell you right now, that's not going to work

1247
01:26:15,800 --> 01:26:18,839
Speaker 25: out well for them either. And it was the Truman

1248
01:26:19,160 --> 01:26:23,400
Speaker 25: Carrier strike group that unleashed American fury on the Houti

1249
01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:33,040
Speaker 25: terrorists in the Red Sea. And as you know, they settled,

1250
01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:36,240
Speaker 25: but they settled because they made the Saint Mundus.

1251
01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:38,599
Speaker 5: We've never been hit like that ever before.

1252
01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:43,280
Speaker 25: And earlier this year conducted the single largest airstrike from

1253
01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:45,200
Speaker 25: an American carrier in history.

1254
01:26:45,280 --> 01:26:46,360
Speaker 5: That was the largest ever.

1255
01:26:47,520 --> 01:26:50,240
Speaker 25: I want to express my personal thanks to every single

1256
01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:54,240
Speaker 25: sailor who contributed to these phenomenal victories.

1257
01:26:54,280 --> 01:26:56,759
Speaker 5: We only know victory. We're only going to know victory.

1258
01:26:57,600 --> 01:27:00,760
Speaker 5: We don't want to know the other word. We want

1259
01:27:00,760 --> 01:27:01,320
Speaker 5: to know victory.

1260
01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:03,479
Speaker 25: We're gonna have great victories in the years to come,

1261
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:06,960
Speaker 25: well at least for almost three and a half years.

1262
01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:09,280
Speaker 25: We're gonna have great victories. I want to thank a

1263
01:27:09,320 --> 01:27:11,880
Speaker 25: group of women from North Carolina. Look at these great

1264
01:27:11,920 --> 01:27:13,000
Speaker 25: will you stand up leave?

1265
01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:16,680
Speaker 5: These beautiful women have followed me.

1266
01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:21,800
Speaker 25: This is number one hundred and fifty one.

1267
01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:24,679
Speaker 5: You could call a rally. This is sort of a rally.

1268
01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:27,599
Speaker 5: Let's face it, this is a rally. This is a.

1269
01:27:27,560 --> 01:27:30,400
Speaker 25: Speech of love. We're all we all love our country.

1270
01:27:30,880 --> 01:27:34,200
Speaker 25: But that group is from North Carolina. They're up to

1271
01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:37,559
Speaker 25: about one hundred and fifty one visits, have a whole

1272
01:27:37,600 --> 01:27:40,479
Speaker 25: group of them. I never see their husbands. I don't

1273
01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:43,519
Speaker 25: know what's going on with their husbands. I assume do

1274
01:27:43,560 --> 01:27:46,360
Speaker 25: they still love you? The husband's yes, good. But I

1275
01:27:46,400 --> 01:27:48,240
Speaker 25: want to thank you one hundred and fifty one. They've

1276
01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:51,920
Speaker 25: been following me since twenty sixteen, and you look even

1277
01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:54,320
Speaker 25: better now than you did then. But I want to

1278
01:27:54,360 --> 01:27:56,599
Speaker 25: thank you very much. I say, really group, they love

1279
01:27:56,640 --> 01:27:58,880
Speaker 25: our country. They like Trump, but you know what they

1280
01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:01,240
Speaker 25: really do. They love our country and we have the

1281
01:28:01,320 --> 01:28:04,240
Speaker 25: right policy. Right, we have policy. We don't want crime,

1282
01:28:05,120 --> 01:28:08,320
Speaker 25: We don't want men playing in women's sports, we don't

1283
01:28:08,320 --> 01:28:12,240
Speaker 25: want transgender for everybody. We don't want to have open

1284
01:28:12,320 --> 01:28:15,679
Speaker 25: borders where millions of people come into our country from jails,

1285
01:28:15,720 --> 01:28:21,080
Speaker 25: from prisons, from mental institutions and insane asylums, drug.

1286
01:28:20,800 --> 01:28:22,480
Speaker 5: Dealers, murderers.

1287
01:28:22,560 --> 01:28:27,439
Speaker 25: Eleven thousand, seven hundred and eighty eight murderers were allowed

1288
01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:28,639
Speaker 25: to come into our country.

1289
01:28:28,680 --> 01:28:30,200
Speaker 5: A lot a lot of them are gone.

1290
01:28:30,680 --> 01:28:33,280
Speaker 25: And by the way, Washington, DC is a safe place

1291
01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:35,919
Speaker 25: right now. It went from one of the most dangerous

1292
01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:36,960
Speaker 25: cities in our country.

1293
01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:37,760
Speaker 5: Can you believe that?

1294
01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:42,000
Speaker 25: To probably the safest among the safest in our country.

1295
01:28:42,040 --> 01:28:47,360
Speaker 5: Nobody's being hit anymore. It's very safe. And I want

1296
01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:47,800
Speaker 5: to thank you.

1297
01:28:47,840 --> 01:28:49,519
Speaker 25: A lot of the people here have helped a lot

1298
01:28:49,520 --> 01:28:52,000
Speaker 25: of the people in the audience are people that have

1299
01:28:52,439 --> 01:28:53,280
Speaker 25: straightened them out.

1300
01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:55,880
Speaker 5: It took twelve days. Think of that.

1301
01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:59,160
Speaker 25: Now we're in Memphis. We're doing the same thing in Memphis, and.

1302
01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:00,000
Speaker 5: We're going to Chicago.

1303
01:29:00,360 --> 01:29:02,439
Speaker 25: You know, we have a governor that thinks it's wonderful.

1304
01:29:02,479 --> 01:29:05,200
Speaker 25: When fifty people in a short period of time were

1305
01:29:05,280 --> 01:29:09,559
Speaker 25: murdered in Chicago, over two hundred people were hit, and

1306
01:29:09,640 --> 01:29:13,440
Speaker 25: so we send in the National Guard.

1307
01:29:13,680 --> 01:29:15,840
Speaker 5: You know what, we send in whatsever necessary.

1308
01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:18,719
Speaker 25: People don't care, they want to they don't want crime

1309
01:29:19,040 --> 01:29:21,639
Speaker 25: in their cities, and we're doing it, and we're doing

1310
01:29:21,680 --> 01:29:24,439
Speaker 25: it well. We're doing it like nobody's ever done it before.

1311
01:29:24,720 --> 01:29:27,040
Speaker 25: So I just want to tell you you're very close to DC.

1312
01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:31,400
Speaker 25: The restaurants are thriving. The restaurants are dying. They were

1313
01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:33,080
Speaker 25: closing one after another.

1314
01:29:33,200 --> 01:29:34,120
Speaker 5: Now they're thriving.

1315
01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:38,360
Speaker 25: They're opening up beautiful new restaurants. Washington, DC is safe.

1316
01:29:38,360 --> 01:29:40,120
Speaker 25: And I even went there and had dinner the other

1317
01:29:40,240 --> 01:29:43,400
Speaker 25: night and I said, right smack in the middle of

1318
01:29:43,439 --> 01:29:46,720
Speaker 25: the street. Secret Service was thrilled, and I gave a

1319
01:29:46,720 --> 01:29:50,599
Speaker 25: news conference. It's a safe place now, Washington, DC, it's

1320
01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:53,520
Speaker 25: always going to be our nation's capital is always.

1321
01:29:53,160 --> 01:29:55,320
Speaker 5: Going to be safe. We're never going to let that

1322
01:29:55,439 --> 01:29:56,040
Speaker 5: happen again.

1323
01:29:56,120 --> 01:29:59,280
Speaker 25: What happened there one of the most beautiful places that

1324
01:29:59,360 --> 01:30:02,639
Speaker 25: were doing a big beautification program. It'll take me very little,

1325
01:30:03,040 --> 01:30:06,559
Speaker 25: very short, but we're doing a beautification program to go

1326
01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:09,040
Speaker 25: along with the security and safety. We're getting rid of

1327
01:30:09,080 --> 01:30:13,840
Speaker 25: the graffiti, the potholes, the broken medians between roads. We're

1328
01:30:13,880 --> 01:30:15,880
Speaker 25: doing a real job and you'd be proud of it.

1329
01:30:15,920 --> 01:30:17,200
Speaker 25: I think everybody here.

1330
01:30:17,120 --> 01:30:17,720
Speaker 5: Is proud of it.

1331
01:30:17,760 --> 01:30:21,360
Speaker 25: Frankly, it's our nation's capital and that has to be clean, beautiful,

1332
01:30:21,360 --> 01:30:25,760
Speaker 25: and safe. The US Navy always stands for America. As

1333
01:30:26,040 --> 01:30:28,400
Speaker 25: your commander in chief, I will always stand for you.

1334
01:30:28,520 --> 01:30:30,920
Speaker 25: I promise you that you know that. That's why you

1335
01:30:31,040 --> 01:30:34,360
Speaker 25: voted for me in numbers that nobody's ever seen before.

1336
01:30:35,439 --> 01:30:38,160
Speaker 25: And I want you to know that despite the current

1337
01:30:38,439 --> 01:30:42,800
Speaker 25: Democrat induced shutdown, we will get our service members every

1338
01:30:42,880 --> 01:30:43,479
Speaker 25: last penny.

1339
01:30:43,479 --> 01:30:48,120
Speaker 5: Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it. You'll worry

1340
01:30:48,120 --> 01:30:53,719
Speaker 5: about Do not worry about it. It's all coming.

1341
01:30:53,720 --> 01:30:57,639
Speaker 25: It's coming, and even more because I'm supporting the across

1342
01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:00,519
Speaker 25: the board pay races for every sailor and service member

1343
01:31:00,560 --> 01:31:06,320
Speaker 25: of the United States. En course, but we have to

1344
01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:08,719
Speaker 25: take care of this little gnat that's on our shoulder

1345
01:31:08,760 --> 01:31:10,840
Speaker 25: called the Democrats. They want to give all of our

1346
01:31:10,880 --> 01:31:13,920
Speaker 25: money to illegal aliens that pour into the country. And

1347
01:31:13,960 --> 01:31:15,640
Speaker 25: you know I have a bigger heart than they do.

1348
01:31:15,760 --> 01:31:17,680
Speaker 25: But the problem is When you do that, they come

1349
01:31:17,720 --> 01:31:20,000
Speaker 25: in by the minions. Everybody wants that, so they can't

1350
01:31:20,080 --> 01:31:23,840
Speaker 25: do it. But I've also pledged the largest ever investment

1351
01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:28,559
Speaker 25: in our military's history. We're spending over one trillion dollars.

1352
01:31:29,040 --> 01:31:32,360
Speaker 25: We've never had anything like that before, one trillion dollars

1353
01:31:32,400 --> 01:31:37,000
Speaker 25: on our military. And that includes along with your Secretary

1354
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:39,080
Speaker 25: of the Navy and Pete Hegseth, we're going to be

1355
01:31:39,080 --> 01:31:42,080
Speaker 25: building lots of ships and doing a lot of things

1356
01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:46,559
Speaker 25: that you haven't seen happen for thirty five years. We'll

1357
01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:50,320
Speaker 25: soon revitalize our once great shipyards with hundreds of billions

1358
01:31:50,320 --> 01:31:53,320
Speaker 25: of dollars in new investments and people coming from all

1359
01:31:53,360 --> 01:31:56,520
Speaker 25: around the world, and they're going to build chips in America.

1360
01:31:56,680 --> 01:31:58,160
Speaker 5: We want to build in America.

1361
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:01,679
Speaker 25: And as I told our General and admirals last Tuesday,

1362
01:32:01,760 --> 01:32:03,200
Speaker 25: we are getting woke as.

1363
01:32:03,080 --> 01:32:07,160
Speaker 5: The hell out of our military. It's gone. It's truly gone.

1364
01:32:08,479 --> 01:32:10,240
Speaker 5: I don't know that it was ever really here. I

1365
01:32:10,240 --> 01:32:12,120
Speaker 5: think some of the top people had it. I knew

1366
01:32:12,160 --> 01:32:12,720
Speaker 5: a few of them.

1367
01:32:12,720 --> 01:32:16,760
Speaker 25: They were really they were major losers, but they were

1368
01:32:16,800 --> 01:32:22,240
Speaker 25: losers unlike our great General, the Chairman of the Joint

1369
01:32:22,280 --> 01:32:25,759
Speaker 25: chiefs of Staff, who may be here. Dan Raisin Kane,

1370
01:32:25,800 --> 01:32:28,200
Speaker 25: you know Raisin kin. When I heard his name, I said,

1371
01:32:28,200 --> 01:32:31,080
Speaker 25: that's the guy I'm looking for. But he's been an

1372
01:32:31,120 --> 01:32:33,719
Speaker 25: amazing warrior, and you know, he was the one headed

1373
01:32:33,840 --> 01:32:38,320
Speaker 25: up the attack on Iran and everything he's touched has

1374
01:32:38,360 --> 01:32:39,080
Speaker 25: turned out great.

1375
01:32:39,160 --> 01:32:40,240
Speaker 5: He knocked out Isis.

1376
01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:42,439
Speaker 25: So I was told it would take four to five

1377
01:32:42,520 --> 01:32:45,280
Speaker 25: years to beat Isis when he came on board.

1378
01:32:45,560 --> 01:32:47,760
Speaker 5: He did it in four weeks. We knocked him out

1379
01:32:47,800 --> 01:32:52,240
Speaker 5: in four weeks. One of the Isis caliphate is Dan

1380
01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:56,599
Speaker 5: Kane here. He is you know why because he's working

1381
01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:00,519
Speaker 5: so one thing, we don't have to worry about him.

1382
01:33:00,840 --> 01:33:03,000
Speaker 25: But he is a fantastic man as the man I

1383
01:33:03,040 --> 01:33:05,040
Speaker 25: wanted right from the beginning, I said, if I ever

1384
01:33:05,120 --> 01:33:07,120
Speaker 25: do this again, and if I could get lucky enough

1385
01:33:07,160 --> 01:33:09,760
Speaker 25: to win, because we have a base like nobody in

1386
01:33:09,880 --> 01:33:11,960
Speaker 25: history has had, I said, I'm going to pick Raisin

1387
01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:14,320
Speaker 25: Caine as the chairman, and.

1388
01:33:14,320 --> 01:33:16,120
Speaker 5: That's what we did, and he's been incredible.

1389
01:33:16,160 --> 01:33:19,680
Speaker 25: We will not be politically correct when it comes to

1390
01:33:19,720 --> 01:33:23,480
Speaker 25: defending American freedom. That's why we have renamed the Department

1391
01:33:23,520 --> 01:33:26,320
Speaker 25: of Defense at Department of Wars, I said, And we

1392
01:33:26,400 --> 01:33:30,320
Speaker 25: have changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to

1393
01:33:30,439 --> 01:33:31,520
Speaker 25: the Gulf of America.

1394
01:33:31,600 --> 01:33:31,960
Speaker 22: That was it.

1395
01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:38,639
Speaker 5: That was an easy one, you know, for years, I've

1396
01:33:38,640 --> 01:33:41,160
Speaker 5: looked at it and I edited it up, and I figured,

1397
01:33:41,400 --> 01:33:43,400
Speaker 5: we have ninety two percent of the frontage.

1398
01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:45,559
Speaker 25: I say, how come we call it the Gulf of Mexico.

1399
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:48,400
Speaker 25: I mean, I wouldn't say that Mexico is thrilled with me,

1400
01:33:48,479 --> 01:33:49,280
Speaker 25: But what are you going to do?

1401
01:33:49,360 --> 01:33:52,040
Speaker 5: It's the Gulf of America. And I love it now.

1402
01:33:52,080 --> 01:33:55,080
Speaker 25: I was watching the other night a report and they said,

1403
01:33:55,200 --> 01:33:58,920
Speaker 25: very routinely, in the Gulf of America. This is you know,

1404
01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:01,519
Speaker 25: just went on to talk about They didn't do it

1405
01:34:01,560 --> 01:34:04,519
Speaker 25: with a smirk or a smile. They in the Golf

1406
01:34:04,560 --> 01:34:07,960
Speaker 25: of America. It's called the Gulf of America now and

1407
01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:11,040
Speaker 25: nobody's playing games with it. We got sued by the

1408
01:34:11,120 --> 01:34:15,280
Speaker 25: Associated Press and they lost. In fact, the judge was

1409
01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:17,759
Speaker 25: so good he said, he's calling it the Gulf of America.

1410
01:34:17,840 --> 01:34:20,840
Speaker 25: He's got all the approvals. You have to do that too.

1411
01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:23,559
Speaker 5: To the very liberal Associated Press. They got thrown out

1412
01:34:23,600 --> 01:34:23,960
Speaker 5: of court.

1413
01:34:24,680 --> 01:34:27,000
Speaker 25: In fact, they're almost not allowed to cover me anymore

1414
01:34:27,080 --> 01:34:27,720
Speaker 25: because of that.

1415
01:34:27,840 --> 01:34:31,320
Speaker 5: It's a big hit. So I'm very proud of that.

1416
01:34:31,479 --> 01:34:34,960
Speaker 25: Under our leadership, the spirit of the American forces is

1417
01:34:35,080 --> 01:34:38,360
Speaker 25: soaring like it has never soared before. I think right

1418
01:34:38,400 --> 01:34:41,880
Speaker 25: now we have more spirit than we've ever had before.

1419
01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:44,960
Speaker 5: After years of recruiting.

1420
01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:48,679
Speaker 25: Shortages, we couldn't get guys or gals to become sellers.

1421
01:34:49,400 --> 01:34:52,599
Speaker 5: One year ago, they didn't want to be a seller. Oltho,

1422
01:34:52,600 --> 01:34:54,479
Speaker 5: I must say. Once I said we're gonna run a

1423
01:34:54,479 --> 01:34:55,920
Speaker 5: lot of people, it made it better.

1424
01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:58,120
Speaker 25: But let's go back two years, and it was even

1425
01:34:58,160 --> 01:35:02,439
Speaker 25: worse because there is no hope. We had this horrible,

1426
01:35:02,520 --> 01:35:06,200
Speaker 25: horrible president who had no clue what the hell was happening.

1427
01:35:07,080 --> 01:35:08,920
Speaker 5: The chances of him walking down.

1428
01:35:08,760 --> 01:35:14,640
Speaker 25: Those stairs successfully were not good. And I have to

1429
01:35:14,680 --> 01:35:19,400
Speaker 25: be careful because one day I'm gonna probably fall. Now

1430
01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:22,679
Speaker 25: the North Carolina whom said that will never happen to you.

1431
01:35:23,600 --> 01:35:26,000
Speaker 25: I always say walk down the steps nice and saw

1432
01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:28,840
Speaker 25: you ever know I do not. I don't have to

1433
01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:32,320
Speaker 25: bop down to says walk nice and slowly. But we

1434
01:35:33,080 --> 01:35:34,080
Speaker 25: have a waiting list.

1435
01:35:34,120 --> 01:35:34,639
Speaker 5: Think of this.

1436
01:35:34,920 --> 01:35:37,120
Speaker 25: We have a waiting list for people wanting to get

1437
01:35:37,120 --> 01:35:42,840
Speaker 25: into the United States Navy, the Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Marines,

1438
01:35:44,520 --> 01:35:45,200
Speaker 25: Space Force.

1439
01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:48,320
Speaker 5: All we love Space Force. But think of it.

1440
01:35:48,360 --> 01:35:51,839
Speaker 25: We have a waiting list for every branch of government

1441
01:35:51,920 --> 01:35:55,760
Speaker 25: now and that includes police environment. They didn't want to

1442
01:35:56,920 --> 01:35:58,880
Speaker 25: Nobody wanted to be a policeman. Now they want to

1443
01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:00,759
Speaker 25: be a policeman. Now they want to be in the Navy.

1444
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:03,400
Speaker 25: They want to be in the Air Force so badly,

1445
01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:05,479
Speaker 25: the Marines, the.

1446
01:36:05,520 --> 01:36:07,479
Speaker 5: Army, they want to be in all of it. They

1447
01:36:07,520 --> 01:36:08,400
Speaker 5: love Space Force.

1448
01:36:08,479 --> 01:36:10,760
Speaker 25: I love Space Force because I created Space Wars.

1449
01:36:10,800 --> 01:36:11,519
Speaker 5: That was my thing.

1450
01:36:12,320 --> 01:36:13,760
Speaker 25: Then it's going to turn out to be one of

1451
01:36:13,760 --> 01:36:19,720
Speaker 25: the most important. But one year ago our country was dead.

1452
01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:23,479
Speaker 25: We had a dead country. People say, sir, you shouldn't

1453
01:36:23,479 --> 01:36:25,720
Speaker 25: say that. It's two strets of with Tarle. We had

1454
01:36:25,760 --> 01:36:28,720
Speaker 25: a dead country, and today we have the hottest country.

1455
01:36:28,360 --> 01:36:31,519
Speaker 5: Anywhere in the world by far. One year Think of it.

1456
01:36:31,560 --> 01:36:34,200
Speaker 5: One year ago we were dead.

1457
01:36:36,320 --> 01:36:40,240
Speaker 25: The King of Saudi Arabia said to me President, one

1458
01:36:40,280 --> 01:36:44,320
Speaker 25: year ago, we thought we lost America. We thought it

1459
01:36:44,400 --> 01:36:47,280
Speaker 25: was a dead country. And now you have the hottest

1460
01:36:47,320 --> 01:36:48,599
Speaker 25: country anywhere in the world.

1461
01:36:48,640 --> 01:36:52,519
Speaker 5: He said that, I use this term, and I'm pleased

1462
01:36:52,520 --> 01:36:53,080
Speaker 5: to say that.

1463
01:36:53,120 --> 01:36:58,439
Speaker 25: Twenty twenty five was the Navy's single best recruiting year ever.

1464
01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:05,439
Speaker 5: Not bad so you went from those embarrassing headlines of

1465
01:37:05,479 --> 01:37:08,280
Speaker 5: a year ago. Think of it. Nobody wants to go

1466
01:37:08,400 --> 01:37:10,439
Speaker 5: into the navy. How does that make you feel?

1467
01:37:11,439 --> 01:37:11,639
Speaker 8: Now?

1468
01:37:11,640 --> 01:37:13,840
Speaker 5: You have a different problem. You know what the problem is.

1469
01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:15,160
Speaker 5: Everybody wants you job.

1470
01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:19,559
Speaker 25: I like that better right now, but nobody's gonna take

1471
01:37:19,600 --> 01:37:22,800
Speaker 25: your job. You were with us when it was not

1472
01:37:23,080 --> 01:37:26,559
Speaker 25: as nice, it wasn't as nice. Those are the people

1473
01:37:26,600 --> 01:37:29,200
Speaker 25: I like the best, too, the people that were with

1474
01:37:29,280 --> 01:37:31,799
Speaker 25: me when it wasn't looking so good, like these ladies

1475
01:37:31,800 --> 01:37:34,799
Speaker 25: from North Carolina. They were with me when it wasn't

1476
01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:39,120
Speaker 25: looking that good. A lot of fake scandals were created,

1477
01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:43,120
Speaker 25: all fake. One of those eager new recroach is eighteen

1478
01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:49,040
Speaker 25: year old Aidan Rollins, a recruit like I'm so proud of.

1481
01:37:57,040 --> 01:38:01,240
Speaker 5: Turn to carry on that tradition. When he enlisted in April.

1482
01:38:01,040 --> 01:38:05,000
Speaker 25: His father, Daniel, and navy veteran, was so inspired that

1483
01:38:05,080 --> 01:38:10,280
Speaker 25: he decided to re enlist too. Wow, I'm delighted to

1484

Speaker 25: Your father looks pretty young, Aiden, I mean he's a

1490
01:38:37,040 --> 01:38:43,000
Speaker 25: young looking guy. Every sailor, aviator, submariner, and shipmate in

1491
01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:46,559
Speaker 25: the Navy inherits a tradition of excellence and daring, power

1492
01:38:46,600 --> 01:38:50,879
Speaker 25: and glory unmatched in the long soga of mankind's voyage

1493
01:38:50,920 --> 01:38:55,120
Speaker 25: on the sea. From that first ship, the schooner Hannah,

1494
01:38:55,560 --> 01:38:59,120
Speaker 25: to the awesome side of a modern carrier battlegroup underway,

1495
01:39:00,120 --> 01:39:02,360
Speaker 25: US Navy has always been the iron will of a

1496
01:39:02,400 --> 01:39:05,800
Speaker 25: proud and mighty nation, pushing forward through the currents and

1497
01:39:06,600 --> 01:39:11,320
Speaker 25: over those big beautiful waves, through the spray of raging.

1498
01:39:11,080 --> 01:39:13,880
Speaker 5: Combat and the fog of naval war.

1499
01:39:14,920 --> 01:39:18,200
Speaker 25: America sailors have proven time and again that our Navy

1500
01:39:18,280 --> 01:39:23,120
Speaker 25: does just the best job there is anything having to

1501
01:39:23,160 --> 01:39:25,040
Speaker 25: do with sailing the oceans.

1502
01:39:25,200 --> 01:39:28,839
Speaker 5: Is nobody to compete. We own the skies, we stalk

1503
01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:29,880
Speaker 5: the depths.

1504
01:39:30,120 --> 01:39:33,400
Speaker 25: And we rule the seas like nobody has ever ruled

1505
01:39:33,439 --> 01:39:38,680
Speaker 25: the seas. From Boston Harbor to Hampton Roads, from the

1506
01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:43,120
Speaker 25: Philippine Sea to the Red Sea, from the Water Canal

1507
01:39:43,280 --> 01:39:45,719
Speaker 25: to the vast great Atlantic Ocean.

1508
01:39:46,560 --> 01:39:49,800
Speaker 5: Our sailors have seas triumph upon triumph. We don't know

1509
01:39:49,920 --> 01:39:51,200
Speaker 5: anything about defeat.

1510
01:39:52,439 --> 01:39:57,040
Speaker 25: We heaped honor upon honor and carved greatness and splendor

1511
01:39:57,080 --> 01:40:00,760
Speaker 25: into the pages of history. We only talk about the

1512
01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:03,560
Speaker 25: navy and only use that word splendor.

1513
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:07,440
Speaker 5: We also say victory, because that's the other We have splendor,

1514
01:40:07,479 --> 01:40:08,479
Speaker 5: and we have victory.

1515
01:40:08,520 --> 01:40:13,320
Speaker 25: On gun decks and flight decks, in torpedo rooms and cockpits.

1516
01:40:13,920 --> 01:40:17,240
Speaker 25: They have poured out their blood, sweat, and tears and offered.

1517
01:40:16,920 --> 01:40:20,200
Speaker 5: Their very lives to defend this land. Between the seas.

1518
01:40:20,920 --> 01:40:23,280
Speaker 5: They have crossed icy canals.

1519
01:40:23,160 --> 01:40:27,400
Speaker 25: Leapt from burning records, plunged into frigid water, sword into

1520
01:40:27,479 --> 01:40:32,720
Speaker 25: deadly skies, and slashed across the mine infested bays to

1521
01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:39,600
Speaker 25: claim American victory and to defend, because of liberty, to defend,

1522
01:40:40,040 --> 01:40:45,719
Speaker 25: quite frankly, the American flag. In every era and every

1523
01:40:45,760 --> 01:40:48,799
Speaker 25: part of this globe, our sailors have fought with courage

1524
01:40:48,840 --> 01:40:51,800
Speaker 25: in their hearts, patriotism in their souls.

1525
01:40:51,760 --> 01:40:54,240
Speaker 5: And salt water in their veins.

1526
01:40:54,320 --> 01:40:58,400
Speaker 25: You have that salt water. Don't let the doctors change it.

1527
01:40:58,800 --> 01:41:02,639
Speaker 25: Keep it because there's nothing like it is, no blood

1528
01:41:02,840 --> 01:41:03,120
Speaker 25: like it.

1529
01:41:03,880 --> 01:41:05,439
Speaker 5: And standing before all.

1530
01:41:05,320 --> 01:41:09,360
Speaker 25: Of you today, I know that whatever our nation is threatened,

1531
01:41:09,360 --> 01:41:17,280
Speaker 25: and whenever they need help, whenever duty calls, American sailors

1532
01:41:17,320 --> 01:41:20,439
Speaker 25: will hoist our flag high, and they will rally to

1533
01:41:20,640 --> 01:41:25,120
Speaker 25: Admi Farragut's immortal batter cry, Damn the torpedoes, full.

1534
01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:27,680
Speaker 5: Speed ahead, go, I love my guns.

1535
01:41:28,560 --> 01:41:32,120
Speaker 25: With your help, we will fight, fight, fight, We will.

1536
01:41:31,960 --> 01:41:33,200
Speaker 5: Win, win win.

1537
01:41:33,960 --> 01:41:36,960
Speaker 25: Because of you, our navy and our country will always

1538
01:41:37,000 --> 01:41:41,760

01:42:33,760 --> 01:42:38,599
Speaker 27: That's to me, young man.

1550
01:42:39,560 --> 01:42:42,439
Speaker 5: There's a place you can't go, I said your name.

1551
01:42:43,400 --> 01:42:46,360
Speaker 28: When you're short on your dope, you can't stay.

1552
01:42:47,280 --> 01:42:48,559
Speaker 5: I'm not sure you will.

1553
01:42:48,520 --> 01:42:50,240
Speaker 19: Buy many ways.

1554
01:42:55,479 --> 01:42:56,720
Speaker 5: It's fun to stay in the.

1555
01:42:58,520 --> 01:42:59,840
Speaker 22: See it's hard to.

1556
01:43:04,240 --> 01:43:09,519

01:43:10,080 --> 01:43:11,600
Speaker 19: but it's understand.

1558
01:43:14,439 --> 01:43:18,640
Speaker 27: It's not to stay.

1559
01:43:19,360 --> 01:43:22,719
Speaker 19: You can get you something and they can't have a nail.

Speaker 20: You can do what the bob dumpy young man.

Speaker 2: To the bindancy unto the armed forces. Incredible, incredible day.

1569
01:44:00,040 --> 01:44:02,240
Speaker 2: I was only got to go back and go back

1570
01:44:02,240 --> 01:44:06,840
Speaker 2: to Washington, d c. And deal with the gods of war.

1571
01:44:07,280 --> 01:44:10,560
Speaker 2: Let's bring in Gary Hall. Admire. Hall was on the

1572
01:44:10,640 --> 01:44:15,760
Speaker 2: National Security Council for President Trump and President Trump's first term.

1573
01:44:15,920 --> 01:44:18,680
Speaker 2: Ardmore Hall, You've had an opportunity to see today a

1574
01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:22,360
Speaker 2: historic two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the birth of

1575
01:44:22,400 --> 01:44:25,600
Speaker 2: the United States Navy, and of course wrapped up with

1576
01:44:25,800 --> 01:44:30,800
Speaker 2: a very inspiring talk to the sailors and men of

1577
01:44:30,840 --> 01:44:33,439
Speaker 2: the Truman and the other ships in the fleet that

1578
01:44:33,479 --> 01:44:35,519
Speaker 2: are at Norfolk Naval Station and your thoughts, sir.

1579
01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:39,240
Speaker 29: Well, thank you, Steve. I'm humbled to go after the president. Wow,

1580
01:44:39,560 --> 01:44:42,120
Speaker 29: I have chills right now. I have goose flesh. You

1581
01:44:42,240 --> 01:44:44,880
Speaker 29: send me to the recruiters. I want to sign back up.

1582
01:44:45,320 --> 01:44:47,960
Speaker 29: You know, three great speeches, and I'll tell you the

1583
01:44:47,960 --> 01:44:50,920
Speaker 29: culture of the Navy is different than all the other services.

1584
01:44:51,080 --> 01:44:53,839
Speaker 29: Each service has their own culture. But in the Navy,

1585
01:44:54,120 --> 01:44:57,679
Speaker 29: you cannot order anybody to cheer. You cannot order them

1586
01:44:57,720 --> 01:45:00,920
Speaker 29: to applaud. And their response to this Secretary of Ward,

1587
01:45:01,000 --> 01:45:03,640
Speaker 29: their response to the first Lady, their response to the

1588
01:45:03,680 --> 01:45:06,880
Speaker 29: President is awesome. And those people they just you know

1589
01:45:06,960 --> 01:45:10,719
Speaker 29: that they hate the fact that people love President Trump.

1590
01:45:11,080 --> 01:45:11,280
Speaker 22: You know.

1591
01:45:11,640 --> 01:45:16,519
Speaker 29: The American sailor, they come from ordinary Americans. You know,

1592
01:45:16,200 --> 01:45:20,560
Speaker 29: they're neither liberal or conservative. They're just good all Americans,

1593
01:45:20,680 --> 01:45:23,759
Speaker 29: and they love the President. To see that, it's just amazing.

1594
01:45:24,320 --> 01:45:27,040
Speaker 29: The President mentioned you know, the care sergeant. I commanded

1595
01:45:27,080 --> 01:45:30,679
Speaker 29: a similar ship, you know, one thousand sailors, two thousand Marines.

1596
01:45:30,760 --> 01:45:34,880
Speaker 29: And again, they are genuine Americans. And when they cheer,

1597
01:45:35,040 --> 01:45:38,679
Speaker 29: it's coming right from their heart. And so yeah, sign

1598
01:45:38,720 --> 01:45:39,240
Speaker 29: me back up.

1599
01:45:39,280 --> 01:45:39,599
Speaker 9: Steve.

1600
01:45:39,840 --> 01:45:43,599
Speaker 29: You know, in the promo to this broadcast, I saw

1601
01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:46,439
Speaker 29: a picture of you as Ensign Bannon. And first for

1602
01:45:46,479 --> 01:45:49,080
Speaker 29: our listeners, I want to tell you something. I met

1603
01:45:49,200 --> 01:45:53,479
Speaker 29: Lieutenant Bannon back in nineteen eighty six, eighty seven when

1604
01:45:53,520 --> 01:45:57,240
Speaker 29: he showed up at my squadron. Every wife, every spouse,

1605
01:45:57,280 --> 01:45:59,519
Speaker 29: every girl there swooned and went.

1606
01:45:59,600 --> 01:45:59,840
Speaker 9: Have you.

1607
01:46:01,400 --> 01:46:06,200
Speaker 29: Brother, Oh he is gorgeous. So anyway, and Steve you

1608
01:46:06,240 --> 01:46:10,280
Speaker 29: and I thanks, thanks you. And I joined about the

1609
01:46:10,360 --> 01:46:13,800
Speaker 29: same time. And the reason we joined was, and tell me,

1610
01:46:13,840 --> 01:46:18,000
Speaker 29: if I'm right with you, adventure, opportunity, and I used

1611
01:46:18,000 --> 01:46:23,360
Speaker 29: to phrase association with heroes. And that's exactly why sailors

1612
01:46:23,360 --> 01:46:27,000
Speaker 29: are joining today. They want adventure, they want opportunity, and

1613
01:46:27,040 --> 01:46:31,080
Speaker 29: they want to serve with like minded heroes. And service

1614
01:46:31,280 --> 01:46:33,760
Speaker 29: is the big term right there. So what a great date.

1615
01:46:33,760 --> 01:46:36,400
Speaker 29: Two hundred and fifteen years. I only spent thirty nine

1616
01:46:36,439 --> 01:46:38,040
Speaker 29: years in the navy. I wish I could have spent

1617
01:46:38,080 --> 01:46:38,800
Speaker 29: a couple more.

1618
01:46:40,720 --> 01:46:42,400
Speaker 2: I want to ask you about it. And by the way,

1619
01:46:42,439 --> 01:46:44,880
Speaker 2: I was born right outside an ocean view, right near

1620
01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:48,120
Speaker 2: the Norfolk Naval Station. Of course, family so many family

1621
01:46:48,200 --> 01:46:49,920
Speaker 2: associated with the navy.

1622
01:46:50,360 --> 01:46:50,599
Speaker 8: Uh.

1623
01:46:50,680 --> 01:46:53,719
Speaker 2: And it was reading those inspirational and hearing the stories,

1624
01:46:53,760 --> 01:46:56,960
Speaker 2: the inspirational stories of the Pacific Fleet that always I

1625
01:46:56,960 --> 01:46:58,960
Speaker 2: always wanted to be a naval officer and to go

1626
01:46:58,960 --> 01:47:00,439
Speaker 2: to the Pacific Fleet. And I was blessed to be

1627
01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:03,080
Speaker 2: able to do that. One technical question for you. You

1628
01:47:03,160 --> 01:47:06,559
Speaker 2: were President Trump's on the National Security Council, pretty senior

1629
01:47:06,840 --> 01:47:10,080
Speaker 2: position about alliances. You had been one of the senior

1630
01:47:10,439 --> 01:47:14,439
Speaker 2: officers at NATO outside of your service to the fleet

1631
01:47:14,960 --> 01:47:18,080
Speaker 2: as a pilot. What's the difference you've seen in the

1632
01:47:18,120 --> 01:47:20,000
Speaker 2: cut of the jib of the president and the second

1633
01:47:20,040 --> 01:47:20,960
Speaker 2: term than the first.

1634
01:47:21,920 --> 01:47:26,080
Speaker 29: Well, one he doesn't feel hampered, and two he's doing

1635
01:47:26,120 --> 01:47:29,400
Speaker 29: amazing things. You know, I served for two years at NATO,

1636
01:47:29,560 --> 01:47:31,920
Speaker 29: and you know, the common joke is NATO stands for

1637
01:47:32,000 --> 01:47:34,559
Speaker 29: not at the office or not after two o'clock, and

1638
01:47:34,760 --> 01:47:37,840
Speaker 29: they are you know, those staff. NATO is staff's, it's

1639
01:47:37,840 --> 01:47:40,439
Speaker 29: not four structure. And the fact that President Trump has

1640
01:47:40,479 --> 01:47:43,280
Speaker 29: made them, you know, pony up more of their GDP

1641
01:47:43,640 --> 01:47:48,920
Speaker 29: for infrastructure. That is a big deal because basically, any

1642
01:47:48,960 --> 01:47:52,479
Speaker 29: time anything came up in NATO, and we had all

1643
01:47:52,520 --> 01:47:56,400
Speaker 29: the senior officers represented. If ever there was a question

1644
01:47:56,439 --> 01:47:58,960
Speaker 29: about what to do, everybody bent over to tie their

1645
01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:01,000
Speaker 29: shoes and I would stay in there with loafers. They

1646
01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:04,240
Speaker 29: were all looking for the Americans to take charge, whether

1647
01:48:04,280 --> 01:48:08,160
Speaker 29: it be the fourth of July picnic or an operation

1648
01:48:08,479 --> 01:48:13,160
Speaker 29: at sea, and their forces. We had quick reaction forces,

1649
01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:18,080
Speaker 29: naval forces, and with an exercise once every year, and

1650
01:48:18,120 --> 01:48:20,320
Speaker 29: there were four quarters where you would sign up, and

1651
01:48:20,400 --> 01:48:23,240
Speaker 29: the NATO forces would only sign up on the quarters

1652
01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:27,400
Speaker 29: that they didn't deploy forces. So President Trump has really

1653
01:48:27,479 --> 01:48:31,240
Speaker 29: I think, wakened up the NATO forces that they won.

1654
01:48:31,320 --> 01:48:33,760
Speaker 29: They have to pony up, you know. Two they have

1655
01:48:33,880 --> 01:48:36,600
Speaker 29: to deploy and have the infrastructure to go to c

1656
01:48:37,040 --> 01:48:38,519
Speaker 29: You know, when I work for the President, I used

1657
01:48:38,560 --> 01:48:40,679
Speaker 29: to say, if you go in to see him, one,

1658
01:48:41,120 --> 01:48:43,000
Speaker 29: there's six things I want to tell you. One he's

1659
01:48:43,000 --> 01:48:44,640
Speaker 29: not going to do the same thing and expect a

1660
01:48:44,640 --> 01:48:48,760
Speaker 29: different result, which is you know, withdrawal from Afghanistan. Two

1661
01:48:48,840 --> 01:48:52,400
Speaker 29: he's going to be respectful of taxpayer dollars. And three

1662
01:48:52,479 --> 01:48:55,040
Speaker 29: he's not going to put any American in harms way,

1663
01:48:55,080 --> 01:48:58,559
Speaker 29: whether it be DoD Department of State or NGOs.

1664
01:48:58,840 --> 01:48:59,360
Speaker 2: And the other thing.

1665
01:48:59,360 --> 01:49:01,200
Speaker 29: If you go into the President, he's going to ask

1666
01:49:01,200 --> 01:49:04,320
Speaker 29: you with the project, how much are we paying, how

1667
01:49:04,400 --> 01:49:06,400
Speaker 29: much are why is it important the United States? How

1668
01:49:06,479 --> 01:49:09,519
Speaker 29: much are we pain? How much are other's pain? Burden sharing?

1669
01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:12,280
Speaker 29: And he wants NATO to step up and share the burden.

1670
01:49:15,640 --> 01:49:18,080
Speaker 2: Admiral hangover a second. I want to go to come

1671
01:49:18,120 --> 01:49:21,120
Speaker 2: back to you and want Taje Gil You've had this

1672
01:49:21,320 --> 01:49:24,639
Speaker 2: chance to see this today. The Navy Seals got two

1673
01:49:24,720 --> 01:49:28,160
Speaker 2: great speakers at the beginning and a demonstration of the

1674
01:49:28,240 --> 01:49:32,440
Speaker 2: Navy Seals boarding ships. Your thoughts today, particularly the enthusiasm

1675
01:49:32,520 --> 01:49:33,200
Speaker 2: of the sailors.

1676
01:49:35,120 --> 01:49:36,160
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, that was awesome.

1677
01:49:36,840 --> 01:49:37,120
Speaker 22: Trump.

1678
01:49:37,120 --> 01:49:43,680
Speaker 2: Trump's the man. Trump. Can you hear me? Yes, sir,

1679
01:49:43,720 --> 01:49:46,640
Speaker 2: I got you.

1680
01:49:45,439 --> 01:49:46,040
Speaker 5: Okay, got it.

1681
01:49:46,240 --> 01:49:50,200
Speaker 15: Yeah, Trump's man, He's amazing. Those sailors were fired up.

1682
01:49:50,280 --> 01:49:52,400
Speaker 15: And then I saw him earlier. I was watching the

1683
01:49:52,400 --> 01:49:55,640
Speaker 15: show earlier when he was out on the on the

1684
01:49:55,680 --> 01:49:58,520
Speaker 15: aircraft carrier and they were doing the live fire demonstration

1685
01:49:58,600 --> 01:50:00,679
Speaker 15: with the Sea Whiz and the Navy Seal faster rope.

1686
01:50:00,680 --> 01:50:01,040
Speaker 22: Been there.

1687
01:50:01,920 --> 01:50:03,880
Speaker 2: That was an incredible day.

1688
01:50:03,920 --> 01:50:07,799
Speaker 15: And like Trump said, the naval recruiting in twenty twenty

1689
01:50:07,800 --> 01:50:11,120
Speaker 15: five is the highest ever and that's because of Trump.

1690
01:50:11,360 --> 01:50:14,200
Speaker 15: And that's because of heg Seth getting all the woke

1691
01:50:14,280 --> 01:50:16,920
Speaker 15: stuff out of the military and turning it back into

1692
01:50:16,960 --> 01:50:20,240
Speaker 15: a lethal fighting force as it should be, and using

1693
01:50:20,280 --> 01:50:23,479
Speaker 15: the naval power to restore the freedom of navigation in

1694
01:50:23,520 --> 01:50:27,639
Speaker 15: the Red Sea and defeating the hoodies. The Trump Trump

1695
01:50:27,720 --> 01:50:30,400
Speaker 15: is the man. Pete Haig Seth is doing an amazing job,

1696
01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:34,320
Speaker 15: and the Navy is gonna flourish again. It's going to

1697
01:50:34,360 --> 01:50:37,800
Speaker 15: turn back into a fighting force, and their job is

1698
01:50:37,800 --> 01:50:41,320
Speaker 15: to maintain freedom of navigation across the world, to keep

1699
01:50:41,320 --> 01:50:42,400
Speaker 15: the shipping lanes open.

1700
01:50:46,280 --> 01:50:48,680
Speaker 2: For recruiting, it's very you know, for recruiting for the

1701
01:50:48,760 --> 01:50:50,920
Speaker 2: Navy Seals. It's always tough to get the right people.

1702
01:50:50,920 --> 01:50:52,759
Speaker 2: I know a lot of people want to be Navy Seals,

1703
01:50:52,760 --> 01:50:56,080
Speaker 2: but it's so tough psychologically and physically. And I tell people,

1704
01:50:56,080 --> 01:51:00,760
Speaker 2: the psychological toughness of you guys is unbelievable. What do

1705
01:51:00,800 --> 01:51:03,960
Speaker 2: you think this meant today to a broader audience, particularly

1706
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:07,320
Speaker 2: of young Americans, about the potential for volunteering for the Navy.

1707
01:51:09,960 --> 01:51:11,519
Speaker 15: I think, I think young people are going to be

1708
01:51:11,520 --> 01:51:14,400
Speaker 15: fired up. I think, well, we already see they're already

1709
01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:17,400
Speaker 15: fired up. The The recruitings the highest it's ever been

1710
01:51:17,439 --> 01:51:20,240
Speaker 15: for the Navy, and I think that's that goes across

1711
01:51:20,840 --> 01:51:25,760
Speaker 15: armed forces. But everything Trump in the military is doing

1712
01:51:25,840 --> 01:51:31,479
Speaker 15: right now, it builds enthusiasm, it builds morale, and it

1713
01:51:31,640 --> 01:51:35,760
Speaker 15: gets people motivated to be Americans, like we need to

1714
01:51:35,760 --> 01:51:39,240
Speaker 15: bring back an overwhelming sense of patriotism to America. That's

1715
01:51:39,280 --> 01:51:43,080
Speaker 15: how you depete defeat this this woke mind virus. You know,

1716
01:51:43,360 --> 01:51:47,920
Speaker 15: this ideology that's in America. It's through patriotism and it's

1717
01:51:47,960 --> 01:51:51,519
Speaker 15: through leadership. And Trump is providing the leadership. But Pete

1718
01:51:51,520 --> 01:51:55,559
Speaker 15: Hegseth in power, and he is getting rid of all

1719
01:51:55,560 --> 01:51:58,040
Speaker 15: this crap that's in the military and it's returning it

1720
01:51:58,040 --> 01:52:01,799
Speaker 15: to its roofs. The Department of War. It's a fighting force.

1721
01:52:02,040 --> 01:52:05,240
Speaker 15: Lethality is its job, and that's what they're doing. And

1722
01:52:05,720 --> 01:52:08,439
Speaker 15: that's going to motivate young people to join the military

1723
01:52:08,520 --> 01:52:11,439
Speaker 15: because the military is now the military again. It's a

1724
01:52:11,439 --> 01:52:15,040
Speaker 15: fighting force. It's not you know, they're not all doing

1725
01:52:15,040 --> 01:52:16,920
Speaker 15: all this other stuff that they're not supposed to be.

1726
01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:20,080
Speaker 15: So I think this is going to motivate young people

1727
01:52:20,120 --> 01:52:21,880
Speaker 15: to join the military big time.

1728
01:52:23,960 --> 01:52:28,439
Speaker 2: As Pete said, a precision and ferocity. Guys, hang right there.

1729
01:52:28,479 --> 01:52:30,640
Speaker 2: I want to go. Captain Fanel, We're going to let

1730
01:52:30,640 --> 01:52:33,959
Speaker 2: you go. You're closing thoughts. Are you spent? You dedicate

1731
01:52:34,040 --> 01:52:36,600
Speaker 2: your professional life to the United States Navy from a

1732
01:52:36,680 --> 01:52:40,519
Speaker 2: very young man. You served your country. You were bold

1733
01:52:40,640 --> 01:52:42,599
Speaker 2: enough and brave enough to tell the country what they

1734
01:52:42,640 --> 01:52:46,120
Speaker 2: needed to hear at the very moment, certain administrations didn't

1735
01:52:46,120 --> 01:52:48,880
Speaker 2: want anybody to talk about that. What are your thoughts today?

1736
01:52:50,640 --> 01:52:54,120
Speaker 12: Well, I just joined the chorus of what you've just heard.

1737
01:52:54,520 --> 01:52:57,800
Speaker 12: This is really a spectacular. I'm sitting over here in Switzerland,

1738
01:52:58,040 --> 01:53:02,200
Speaker 12: it's almost midnight, and proud to be here and proud

1739
01:53:02,200 --> 01:53:04,960
Speaker 12: to have watched all this, and I can feel the

1740
01:53:05,240 --> 01:53:08,600
Speaker 12: energy all the way over here. I came into the

1741
01:53:08,680 --> 01:53:12,160
Speaker 12: Navy in nineteen eighty six when I was commissioned, and

1742
01:53:12,520 --> 01:53:15,920
Speaker 12: I came in in the Reagan Top Gun movie had

1743
01:53:15,960 --> 01:53:19,400
Speaker 12: come out. Reagan was president, and I wanted something to

1744
01:53:19,439 --> 01:53:22,240
Speaker 12: do that was meaningful, and I wanted to join the Navy.

1745
01:53:22,800 --> 01:53:26,720
Speaker 12: And I can see in those sailors faces, especially the

1746
01:53:26,760 --> 01:53:31,280
Speaker 12: petty officers today, and I think Admiral Hall said they

1747
01:53:31,320 --> 01:53:34,639
Speaker 12: won't clap, that no one orders sailors to clap. They

1748
01:53:34,680 --> 01:53:40,519
Speaker 12: were happy, they were enthusiastic about their president and their service.

1749
01:53:41,200 --> 01:53:45,280
Speaker 12: And I am so excited to see this, and I'm

1750
01:53:45,320 --> 01:53:48,840
Speaker 12: just looking forward to seeing our Navy grow and for

1751
01:53:48,960 --> 01:53:51,519
Speaker 12: us to become the Navy that we have always been,

1752
01:53:51,880 --> 01:53:56,040
Speaker 12: which is to ensure that every seafaring nation has freedom

1753
01:53:56,040 --> 01:53:59,240
Speaker 12: of navigation, free access to the oceans, and that we

1754
01:53:59,400 --> 01:54:02,600
Speaker 12: defend Erica both from the land and the Sea. This

1755
01:54:02,680 --> 01:54:04,719
Speaker 12: has been a great day and it's been an honor

1756
01:54:04,760 --> 01:54:06,200
Speaker 12: to be here, So thank you very much.

1757
01:54:08,400 --> 01:54:10,599
Speaker 2: Where do people get You've got another great piece about

1758
01:54:10,600 --> 01:54:12,120
Speaker 2: the navy. We're going to have you on this week

1759
01:54:12,160 --> 01:54:15,040
Speaker 2: to talk about talk about that and the challenge of

1760
01:54:15,080 --> 01:54:19,000
Speaker 2: the Chinese Coomist Party war fighting capability. Where do people

1761
01:54:19,040 --> 01:54:20,840
Speaker 2: what's the title of your piece and where do people

1762
01:54:20,840 --> 01:54:21,400
Speaker 2: go to get it?

1763
01:54:22,840 --> 01:54:23,080
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1764
01:54:23,120 --> 01:54:28,559
Speaker 12: The title of the piece is Victory at Sea, the

1765
01:54:28,600 --> 01:54:32,520
Speaker 12: importance of the maritime power against the PRC, And it's

1766
01:54:32,520 --> 01:54:35,880
Speaker 12: an American greatness. I write for American greatness just every

1767
01:54:35,960 --> 01:54:38,680
Speaker 12: few weeks or so when something gets my attention. And

1768
01:54:38,840 --> 01:54:42,960
Speaker 12: this speech today and what the President said last week

1769
01:54:43,000 --> 01:54:46,720
Speaker 12: and Quantico about victory at sea, this is what this

1770
01:54:46,840 --> 01:54:49,600
Speaker 12: is about. Getting back to be able to fight and

1771
01:54:49,640 --> 01:54:51,200
Speaker 12: win wars at sea.

1772
01:54:51,600 --> 01:54:52,240
Speaker 5: We can do that.

1773
01:54:52,720 --> 01:54:56,600
Speaker 12: All the other stuff of humanitarian assistance and showing the

1774
01:54:56,680 --> 01:55:00,920
Speaker 12: flag and and helping other people and and coalitions and

1775
01:55:00,960 --> 01:55:03,800
Speaker 12: all that will come. But if we cannot defeat any

1776
01:55:03,840 --> 01:55:07,360
Speaker 12: other nation navy at sea, then we have failed. And

1777
01:55:07,400 --> 01:55:09,800
Speaker 12: that's what we're headed back to. And I'm so glad

1778
01:55:09,800 --> 01:55:12,560
Speaker 12: that President Trump spoke about that and that we have

1779
01:55:12,880 --> 01:55:16,400
Speaker 12: a new spirit of war fighting and naval war fighting

1780
01:55:16,440 --> 01:55:19,480
Speaker 12: that's coming back to our nation. And as they said,

1781
01:55:19,640 --> 01:55:22,920
Speaker 12: I think the Admiral said and others, I'm ready to

1782
01:55:23,000 --> 01:55:24,480
Speaker 12: sign back up if they'll take me.

1783
01:55:27,400 --> 01:55:30,320
Speaker 2: Captain Fanel, thank you so much. You're fighting a pretty

1784
01:55:30,320 --> 01:55:33,160
Speaker 2: good fight and making sure the public knows understands what's

1785
01:55:33,160 --> 01:55:35,080
Speaker 2: going on. So thank you, honor to have you on here. Sir,

1786
01:55:36,440 --> 01:55:40,800
Speaker 2: thank you. I think we got a guy it's about

1787
01:55:40,840 --> 01:55:43,440
Speaker 2: to make. Captain Sean Spicer joins us. Of course, Shawn,

1788
01:55:43,440 --> 01:55:46,480
Speaker 2: you're a critical part of the first term. Give me

1789
01:55:46,520 --> 01:55:48,560
Speaker 2: your thoughts today. I think you put on the rink

1790
01:55:48,600 --> 01:55:50,560
Speaker 2: at Captain on Tuesday, or have you already put it on.

1791
01:55:50,640 --> 01:55:54,400
Speaker 2: It's just the ceremonies on Tuesday, the ceremonies.

1792
01:55:53,880 --> 01:55:57,320
Speaker 26: On Tuesday, looking forward to it. I saw Secretary Hegseth

1793
01:55:57,400 --> 01:55:59,880
Speaker 26: last night just to confirm we're good to go. I

1794
01:56:00,080 --> 01:56:02,000
Speaker 26: told him I haven't eaten in like four days because

1795
01:56:02,040 --> 01:56:04,400
Speaker 26: I got really worried after his speech, and he said,

1796
01:56:04,440 --> 01:56:05,080
Speaker 26: I said.

1797
01:56:06,880 --> 01:56:09,760
Speaker 5: So, I said, all right, I'm good. I'm good. Yeah.

1798
01:56:09,840 --> 01:56:14,080
Speaker 26: It's by the way, a big win yesterday Navy against

1799
01:56:14,160 --> 01:56:15,760
Speaker 26: Air Force. I'll take a win as a win. It

1800
01:56:15,840 --> 01:56:19,360
Speaker 26: was thirty thirty four to thirty one, we're halfway to

1801
01:56:19,440 --> 01:56:21,400
Speaker 26: the Commander in Chief's trophy once again.

1802
01:56:21,440 --> 01:56:24,160
Speaker 5: So that was good. But look, I thought today was fantastic.

1803
01:56:24,240 --> 01:56:26,480
Speaker 26: The opportunity to celebrate the Navy, the history of the Navy,

1804
01:56:26,680 --> 01:56:29,160
Speaker 26: seeing those sailors down there in the pier get fired up.

1805
01:56:30,120 --> 01:56:31,320
Speaker 22: This is what it's all about.

1806
01:56:31,920 --> 01:56:35,760
Speaker 26: This folks getting appreciated, getting thanked for their service, feeling

1807
01:56:35,840 --> 01:56:40,720
Speaker 26: inspired about what they're doing, and importantly the why Steve

1808
01:56:40,760 --> 01:56:42,400
Speaker 26: you know this? I mean, you can sit around forever

1809
01:56:42,480 --> 01:56:44,480
Speaker 26: and do what you're told, but having that sense of

1810
01:56:44,520 --> 01:56:47,960
Speaker 26: duty and purpose is critical. And what President Trump reminded

1811
01:56:48,000 --> 01:56:50,720
Speaker 26: folks again today was that sense of purpose. And he

1812
01:56:50,760 --> 01:56:52,800
Speaker 26: also made it very clear in a sort of a

1813
01:56:52,840 --> 01:56:55,200
Speaker 26: funny way that look, I'm gonna go out there and

1814
01:56:55,240 --> 01:56:57,120
Speaker 26: be the president of peace. I'm on the cusp and

1815
01:56:57,160 --> 01:57:00,280
Speaker 26: on the precipice of solving eight big wars. But that

1816
01:57:00,360 --> 01:57:02,960
Speaker 26: means that you don't have to fight. That you can

1817
01:57:03,040 --> 01:57:06,040
Speaker 26: continue to train and be ready, but we're going to

1818
01:57:06,080 --> 01:57:07,880
Speaker 26: make sure that we bring peace around the world so

1819
01:57:07,880 --> 01:57:09,520
Speaker 26: that we don't have to use you unless we have to.

1820
01:57:12,840 --> 01:57:14,480
Speaker 2: Captain, Can you hang out for a second, We'll come

1821
01:57:14,520 --> 01:57:15,840
Speaker 2: back to it because I want to ask you some

1822
01:57:15,880 --> 01:57:18,320
Speaker 2: differences between the first and second term. I think we're

1823
01:57:18,320 --> 01:57:21,640
Speaker 2: seeing a much more determined President Trump. There will not

1824
01:57:21,720 --> 01:57:26,000
Speaker 2: be held down by the voices of just conventional of

1825
01:57:26,000 --> 01:57:28,480
Speaker 2: how to think about things conventionally. I want to go

1826
01:57:29,160 --> 01:57:32,360
Speaker 2: Cleo Pascal. I want to thank you for spending the

1827
01:57:32,480 --> 01:57:37,640
Speaker 2: entire day doing this. Your whole theory of the case

1828
01:57:37,680 --> 01:57:41,240
Speaker 2: about the Central Pacific being the strategic pivot, the counter

1829
01:57:41,280 --> 01:57:44,400
Speaker 2: to Mackinder's Heartland theory, I think is brilliant. We're gonna

1830
01:57:44,440 --> 01:57:47,200
Speaker 2: spend a lot more time developing that over the days

1831
01:57:47,200 --> 01:57:51,600
Speaker 2: and weeks ahead. Thank you so much. Closing thoughts and observations, ma'am.

1832
01:57:53,160 --> 01:57:55,960
Speaker 14: It's been a great day and an honor to spend

1833
01:57:55,960 --> 01:57:59,880
Speaker 14: it with you and with the posse watching as well.

1834
01:58:00,080 --> 01:58:02,840
Speaker 14: And just for those of you who aren't in the

1835
01:58:02,960 --> 01:58:07,240
Speaker 14: navy to understand that this affects your daily lives in

1836
01:58:07,360 --> 01:58:12,680
Speaker 14: so many ways. The old saying of trade follows the flag.

1837
01:58:12,760 --> 01:58:15,520
Speaker 14: This is about the economy and economic growth. And I

1838
01:58:15,560 --> 01:58:19,000
Speaker 14: would argue also the currency follows the flag. So when

1839
01:58:19,040 --> 01:58:22,240
Speaker 14: the British Navy was the dominant force in the nineteenth century,

1840
01:58:22,240 --> 01:58:25,280
Speaker 14: the British pound was the global reserve currency, and the

1841
01:58:26,080 --> 01:58:29,680
Speaker 14: US dollar really became the global reserve currency at the

1842
01:58:29,720 --> 01:58:33,960
Speaker 14: same time as the naval power of the US became

1843
01:58:34,120 --> 01:58:38,320
Speaker 14: really evident. They're not totally congruent, but they certainly overlapped

1844
01:58:38,360 --> 01:58:41,280
Speaker 14: to a large degree. So the role of the Navy

1845
01:58:41,520 --> 01:58:46,920
Speaker 14: in preserving core economic straints within the US system is paramount.

1846
01:58:47,520 --> 01:58:53,240
Speaker 14: And you know, the president's speech about rebuilding the Navy

1847
01:58:53,240 --> 01:58:58,280
Speaker 14: and about shipbuilding is incredibly important and heartening. And apart

1848
01:58:58,280 --> 01:59:00,720
Speaker 14: from that, I'll i'd say, is you know, go Navy

1849
01:59:00,760 --> 01:59:01,360
Speaker 14: beat China.

1850
01:59:04,840 --> 01:59:07,640
Speaker 2: Cleo, what's your social media? How do people keep up

1851
01:59:07,640 --> 01:59:09,440
Speaker 2: with you? What are your cordinates?

1852
01:59:09,840 --> 01:59:13,800
Speaker 14: I'm on ex just my name Cleopascal Clo, PSKL and

1853
01:59:13,920 --> 01:59:18,040
Speaker 14: on getter at real Cleo because somebody stole my name.

1854
01:59:21,680 --> 01:59:25,920
Speaker 2: Thank you, ma'am. Admiral Masso. You're an expert in naval warfare,

1855
01:59:26,160 --> 01:59:29,000
Speaker 2: surface warfare. You know everything about the and have worked

1856
01:59:29,040 --> 01:59:32,240
Speaker 2: in the process of getting these great weapons systems and

1857
01:59:32,280 --> 01:59:34,840
Speaker 2: all that, but you really specialize in motivating young men

1858
01:59:34,880 --> 01:59:37,600
Speaker 2: and women. Put in perspective what we saw today, sir.

1859
01:59:38,600 --> 01:59:40,960
Speaker 10: Well, I think that what we saw today is that

1860
01:59:41,280 --> 01:59:44,600
Speaker 10: the two hundred and fifty year amazing journey of Our

1861
01:59:44,680 --> 01:59:48,960
Speaker 10: navy is completely parallel with our nation and it's two

1862
01:59:49,000 --> 01:59:53,240
Speaker 10: hundred and fifty year journey. Everything our nation has acquired

1863
01:59:53,280 --> 01:59:57,600
Speaker 10: and done has really been enabled in a very large

1864
01:59:57,640 --> 02:00:00,600
Speaker 10: way by our Navy. I think to today what we

1865
02:00:00,680 --> 02:00:05,720
Speaker 10: showed our allies and enemies and our own internal sailors

1866
02:00:06,000 --> 02:00:09,240
Speaker 10: in the family is that we are vital. That the

1867
02:00:09,280 --> 02:00:14,760
Speaker 10: President has stepped up and has amazingly supported us. Our

1868
02:00:14,800 --> 02:00:18,880
Speaker 10: future is bright, and there is no better friend nor

1869
02:00:18,960 --> 02:00:24,280
Speaker 10: worse adversary potentially than our own navy, and we showed

1870
02:00:24,280 --> 02:00:26,680
Speaker 10: that in spades today. It was an amazing day, and

1871
02:00:26,720 --> 02:00:29,320
Speaker 10: I thank you for allowing me to participate with you,

1872
02:00:29,800 --> 02:00:33,080
Speaker 10: and I thank you for spending as much time as

1873
02:00:33,120 --> 02:00:35,640
Speaker 10: you did, because no one else put it together like

1874
02:00:35,680 --> 02:00:36,040
Speaker 10: you did.

1875
02:00:38,440 --> 02:00:38,520
Speaker 26: Well.

1876
02:00:38,560 --> 02:00:40,320
Speaker 2: It was easy giving all the guys like you I

1877
02:00:40,360 --> 02:00:42,280
Speaker 2: know in the Navy and how much we love it.

1878
02:00:42,320 --> 02:00:45,080
Speaker 2: But it was an incredible Real America's Voice and the

1879
02:00:45,160 --> 02:00:49,440
Speaker 2: Navy put on such a incredible show of combined operations,

1880
02:00:49,480 --> 02:00:52,680
Speaker 2: and I was really proud the fact since Parker and

1881
02:00:52,720 --> 02:00:54,920
Speaker 2: Rob Saging, the Real America's Voice team, worked so hard

1882
02:00:55,000 --> 02:00:57,400
Speaker 2: on this, the actual the White House in the Navy

1883
02:00:57,480 --> 02:00:59,320
Speaker 2: decided to give us a feed that nobody else had,

1884
02:00:59,320 --> 02:01:02,200
Speaker 2: so Emerald Man, So do you have social media sunny

1885
02:01:02,240 --> 02:01:04,480
Speaker 2: to place people and go get your writings?

1886
02:01:06,000 --> 02:01:08,919
Speaker 10: No, not really. I mean I'm out there in LinkedIn

1887
02:01:09,000 --> 02:01:12,120
Speaker 10: and other places. I'm the president of the Navy Museum

1888
02:01:12,200 --> 02:01:16,680
Speaker 10: Development Foundation and I can be found at EMASO at

1889

Speaker 10: n MDF dot org.

1890
02:01:19,080 --> 02:01:24,280
Speaker 2: So you've got a podcast on Navy history. You guys

1891
02:01:24,320 --> 02:01:26,480
Speaker 2: still got the podcast on Navy history? Where can people

1892
02:01:26,480 --> 02:01:27,000
Speaker 2: go to get know?

1893
02:01:28,560 --> 02:01:28,960
Speaker 8: That'll?

1894
02:01:29,040 --> 02:01:34,400
Speaker 10: Well, we're on a Naval Historical Foundation second Saturday out

1895
02:01:34,400 --> 02:01:37,720
Speaker 10: of YouTube, and we have eighty four pieces of great

1896
02:01:37,800 --> 02:01:40,480
Speaker 10: content that I think people would really enjoy.

1897
02:01:42,680 --> 02:01:44,960
Speaker 2: We'll drive them to them Aromassa. Thank you so much,

1898
02:01:45,040 --> 02:01:49,840
Speaker 2: Cleo Pascal. As always, you're tremendous. Don't ever change in

1899
02:01:49,960 --> 02:01:53,080
Speaker 2: the Real America's Voice Studios in Washington, d C. I

1900
02:01:53,080 --> 02:01:55,320
Speaker 2: want to thank Real America's Voice and all the team

1901
02:01:55,360 --> 02:01:59,960
Speaker 2: in Washington for making this happen to great very blessed.

1902
02:02:00,080 --> 02:02:04,680
Speaker 2: They just have a a a great crew. Let me

1903
02:02:04,720 --> 02:02:06,040
Speaker 2: go back. I want to make sure we get all

1904
02:02:06,080 --> 02:02:10,200
Speaker 2: of our other guests in here. Sean Spicer just give

1905
02:02:10,280 --> 02:02:14,120
Speaker 2: put in perspective today in particularly President Trump's want to

1906
02:02:14,120 --> 02:02:17,200
Speaker 2: do this for a long time. The analogy to Roosevelt

1907
02:02:17,200 --> 02:02:19,120
Speaker 2: the Great White Fleet, we do it that basically the

1908
02:02:19,120 --> 02:02:23,960
Speaker 2: same thing, Hampton Roads, Virginia Capes. And compare President Trump

1909
02:02:24,000 --> 02:02:26,400
Speaker 2: to the first term and what he's trying to accomplish

1910
02:02:26,880 --> 02:02:27,400
Speaker 2: this term.

1911
02:02:27,440 --> 02:02:31,960
Speaker 26: Sir, it's a great question. I've been going down this

1912
02:02:31,960 --> 02:02:33,440
Speaker 26: and I'll have more to announce because I actually have

1913
02:02:33,440 --> 02:02:35,600
Speaker 26: a project that I'm working on this to really talk

1914
02:02:35,600 --> 02:02:38,360
Speaker 26: about the difference in all of the areas between Trump

1915
02:02:38,400 --> 02:02:40,520
Speaker 26: one point zero and two point zero. And I think

1916
02:02:40,560 --> 02:02:43,320
Speaker 26: the difference in two point zero, whether it's NATO, and

1917
02:02:43,320 --> 02:02:46,120
Speaker 26: one of your previous guests mentioned that tariffs or the

1918
02:02:46,160 --> 02:02:49,400
Speaker 26: military in particular, think about what he has tasked Secretary

1919
02:02:49,400 --> 02:02:52,640
Speaker 26: of the Navy John Feeling with shipbuilding. So the first

1920
02:02:52,680 --> 02:02:54,680
Speaker 26: time when he came in office, Steve, you know that

1921
02:02:54,720 --> 02:02:56,320
Speaker 26: there's a lot of us getting to know each other,

1922
02:02:56,400 --> 02:02:58,720
Speaker 26: the president getting to know us, the president trying to understand,

1923
02:02:58,800 --> 02:03:00,280
Speaker 26: you know, what his agenda was, how.

1924
02:03:00,200 --> 02:03:00,800
Speaker 8: To get it through.

1925
02:03:01,040 --> 02:03:03,120
Speaker 26: He knew what he wanted, but he didn't necessarily understand

1926
02:03:03,120 --> 02:03:05,360
Speaker 26: the process, and frankly, I don't know that we all did.

1927
02:03:05,360 --> 02:03:08,440
Speaker 26: He came into the second term very clear about what

1928
02:03:08,600 --> 02:03:10,520
Speaker 26: he wanted to do, with the time that he had

1929
02:03:10,520 --> 02:03:12,200
Speaker 26: in the second term. So you look at Tom Pullman

1930
02:03:12,480 --> 02:03:15,920
Speaker 26: the precision which he's carrying out these immigration raids to

1931
02:03:15,960 --> 02:03:17,920
Speaker 26: make sure our country is safer and stronger.

1932
02:03:18,080 --> 02:03:18,840
Speaker 5: But he also is.

1933
02:03:18,800 --> 02:03:21,080
Speaker 26: Doing that in the military. Anytime you listen to the

1934
02:03:21,120 --> 02:03:23,800
Speaker 26: Secretary of the Navy, John Feeling, he's very, very laser

1935
02:03:23,840 --> 02:03:26,600
Speaker 26: focused on shipbuilding. He understands the task at hand, the

1936
02:03:26,680 --> 02:03:28,640
Speaker 26: threats that we face in the future, and he's not

1937
02:03:28,720 --> 02:03:32,840
Speaker 26: wasting any time, you know, putting plans and PowerPoint presentations

1938
02:03:32,880 --> 02:03:35,640
Speaker 26: and taking meetings. It's like he's got his marching orders

1939
02:03:35,680 --> 02:03:37,320
Speaker 26: out there, which is this is what we need to

1940
02:03:37,360 --> 02:03:39,240
Speaker 26: do to take on the threats in the future. I

1941
02:03:39,280 --> 02:03:40,920
Speaker 26: want you to stay laser focused on that. I want

1942
02:03:40,960 --> 02:03:43,040
Speaker 26: you to implement it to get it done. And I

1943
02:03:43,040 --> 02:03:46,360
Speaker 26: think Secretary Feeling has done a phenomenal job of literally

1944
02:03:46,440 --> 02:03:50,120
Speaker 26: taking those orders from the top and executing him making

1945
02:03:50,120 --> 02:03:52,840
Speaker 26: sure that everyone understands what the focus is. And that's

1946
02:03:52,960 --> 02:03:54,640
Speaker 26: what I think the real difference is right now is

1947
02:03:54,680 --> 02:03:57,760
Speaker 26: that President and Trump isn't waiting around. He understands that

1948
02:03:57,840 --> 02:04:00,760
Speaker 26: the threat is real, the threat is now, and he's

1949
02:04:00,840 --> 02:04:03,560
Speaker 26: tasked all of these folks and you look at I

1950
02:04:03,840 --> 02:04:07,600
Speaker 26: know a lot of people who haven't served didn't appreciate.

1951
02:04:07,680 --> 02:04:12,560
Speaker 26: I don't think the message that Secretary Sects gave the

1952
02:04:12,560 --> 02:04:15,840
Speaker 26: other day. This idea of an ethos isn't just about

1953
02:04:15,880 --> 02:04:18,080
Speaker 26: how many push ups you can do or how long

1954
02:04:18,160 --> 02:04:20,720
Speaker 26: you complank for It's a mindset. If you wake up

1955
02:04:20,760 --> 02:04:23,000
Speaker 26: every day thinking I'm going to be ready to fight,

1956
02:04:23,000 --> 02:04:24,560
Speaker 26: I'm going to be ready to defend this country, it

1957
02:04:24,640 --> 02:04:26,560
Speaker 26: kind of permeates everything that you do. You go to

1958
02:04:26,600 --> 02:04:30,760
Speaker 26: your desk, whether you're sitting there working, you know, in

1959
02:04:30,800 --> 02:04:34,560
Speaker 26: a program that's that's death based or death based out

1960
02:04:34,600 --> 02:04:37,120
Speaker 26: on a ship. You understand that there's a purpose to

1961
02:04:37,120 --> 02:04:39,480
Speaker 26: what you do and a readiness to yourself and to

1962
02:04:39,520 --> 02:04:42,880
Speaker 26: your teams that's critical. And what Hegseth did the other

1963
02:04:42,920 --> 02:04:44,480
Speaker 26: day was to reset that mentality.

1964
02:04:44,680 --> 02:04:45,400
Speaker 5: And they say, we're not.

1965
02:04:45,360 --> 02:04:47,880
Speaker 26: Here to hug each other to all get along. We're

1966
02:04:47,920 --> 02:04:51,800
Speaker 26: here to protect this nation. And there is a complete

1967
02:04:51,960 --> 02:04:57,440
Speaker 26: and utter sort of unity of purpose that it stems

1968
02:04:57,440 --> 02:04:59,520
Speaker 26: from the top with President Trump goes down through Secretary

1969
02:04:59,520 --> 02:05:03,320
Speaker 26: of Hegseth down into the Navy to Secretary Feeling and

1970
02:05:03,360 --> 02:05:06,320
Speaker 26: the CNO and everyone else. So I feel like that

1971
02:05:06,720 --> 02:05:12,760
Speaker 26: the sense of unity purpose mission is so much greater

1972
02:05:12,880 --> 02:05:16,480
Speaker 26: this time because President Trump has picked a team and

1973
02:05:16,520 --> 02:05:19,480
Speaker 26: made it clear what those policy are policies are and

1974
02:05:19,480 --> 02:05:20,560
Speaker 26: then said, go do it.

1975
02:05:23,640 --> 02:05:27,440
Speaker 2: Sean Spicer, brilliant. I guess we're gonna have you back on.

1976
02:05:27,480 --> 02:05:29,320
Speaker 2: I want to talk about the tough trade offs they

1977
02:05:29,360 --> 02:05:31,120
Speaker 2: have to come and you talk about shipbuilding as we've

1978
02:05:31,160 --> 02:05:35,280
Speaker 2: talked about the different geopolitical concerns and hemispheric defense all that,

1979
02:05:35,600 --> 02:05:38,080
Speaker 2: there's gotta be some tough decisions made a tough trade OFFFS.

1980
02:05:38,080 --> 02:05:41,520
Speaker 2: But you're absolutely correct President Trump's given marching orders or

1981
02:05:41,520 --> 02:05:44,040
Speaker 2: in this fight to the fleet, All ahead, flank Sean.

1982
02:05:44,160 --> 02:05:46,760
Speaker 2: Where do people get your podcasts? Which I can tell

1983
02:05:46,760 --> 02:05:51,000
Speaker 2: you when I'm on Shawn's podcast, everything goes viral. I

1984
02:05:51,120 --> 02:05:54,320
Speaker 2: just tell my team watch Sewn Spicer. It all goes viral,

1985
02:05:55,000 --> 02:05:56,720
Speaker 2: It all goes some of the stuff I say on

1986
02:05:56,720 --> 02:05:59,520
Speaker 2: the show. Now you going, Sewn Spicer, it's literally top

1987
02:05:59,560 --> 02:06:01,920

1988
02:06:01,960 --> 02:06:02,360
Speaker 2: how you.

1989
02:06:02,280 --> 02:06:03,800

Speaker 2: Where do people go through your podcast and your social media?

1991
02:06:07,880 --> 02:06:09,760
Speaker 26: It's like a Reci's peanut butter cup. You need the

1992
02:06:09,800 --> 02:06:11,760
Speaker 26: chocolate and the peanut butter to make it taste great.

1993
02:06:11,880 --> 02:06:13,800
Speaker 26: So I'll ask the questions, you give the answers, and

1994
02:06:13,840 --> 02:06:16,280
Speaker 26: then it will make it all happen on YouTube.

2007
02:06:45,120 --> 02:06:46,400
Speaker 2: So bravo.

2008
02:06:46,840 --> 02:06:49,360
Speaker 26: The secretary has got me. I told them that you're

2009
02:06:49,400 --> 02:06:51,600
Speaker 26: not allowed to do push ups and blues, and then

2010
02:06:51,640 --> 02:06:55,200
Speaker 26: I watched all the midshipmen and the superintendent yesterday break.

2011
02:06:55,480 --> 02:06:57,400
Speaker 26: You saw that, by the way, right, they broke the

2012
02:06:57,480 --> 02:07:00,240
Speaker 26: Guinness Book of World Record number of pushups. And I

2013
02:07:00,320 --> 02:07:02,040
Speaker 26: was a few minutes late to the game, Steve, and

2014
02:07:02,080 --> 02:07:03,800
Speaker 26: I got to tell you first, I was a little

2015
02:07:04,000 --> 02:07:06,240
Speaker 26: like concerned that I was running behind, but we had

2016
02:07:06,240 --> 02:07:08,360
Speaker 26: some traffic on Rooth fifty getting out there. And then

2017
02:07:08,400 --> 02:07:10,040
Speaker 26: when I realized what they were doing, I was like,

2018
02:07:10,280 --> 02:07:12,480
Speaker 26: it's been goodness.

2019
02:07:13,240 --> 02:07:16,680
Speaker 2: Keep going unbelievable. Navy's got MO and the folks at

2020
02:07:16,760 --> 02:07:18,240
Speaker 2: Army are gonna have their work really cut out from

2021
02:07:18,320 --> 02:07:22,000
Speaker 2: against that Navy time. So Sean, thank you for coming on.

Speaker 2: got an easy job at to sit here in the microphone,

2031
02:07:44,640 --> 02:07:49,560
Speaker 2: just just like passing the basketball to the shooters at

2032
02:07:49,560 --> 02:07:53,200
Speaker 2: Gary Hall, Admirald Hall. You're closing thoughts on all this.

2033
02:07:53,360 --> 02:07:55,080
Speaker 2: I appreciate you coming on. I know you had to

2034
02:07:55,120 --> 02:07:58,520
Speaker 2: travel rapidly to get where you can get up on

2035
02:07:58,560 --> 02:08:02,560
Speaker 2: the show. You've got a great insight to President Trump

2036
02:08:02,640 --> 02:08:06,160
Speaker 2: and particularly how he works in this thinking about national

2037
02:08:06,160 --> 02:08:09,240
Speaker 2: security since you were on the National Security Council for

2038
02:08:09,400 --> 02:08:11,280
Speaker 2: President Trump and worked closely with him for a couple

2039
02:08:11,320 --> 02:08:14,520
Speaker 2: of years. This week is going to be the announcement

2040
02:08:14,880 --> 02:08:18,520
Speaker 2: of the awarding of the Nobel Prize for Peace. Is

2041
02:08:18,520 --> 02:08:20,720
Speaker 2: already a great piece of I think it's a newsweek

2042
02:08:20,760 --> 02:08:23,760
Speaker 2: about how and maybe daily mail also about how it's

2043
02:08:23,800 --> 02:08:27,280
Speaker 2: kind of stacked against him with the Norwegians. But closing

2044
02:08:27,320 --> 02:08:30,959
Speaker 2: thoughts on today and particularly President Trump and this leadership

2045
02:08:30,960 --> 02:08:33,320
Speaker 2: style was seeing right now in his second term.

2046
02:08:34,240 --> 02:08:36,280
Speaker 29: Well, first of all, I was one of the Navy's

2047
02:08:36,280 --> 02:08:39,600
Speaker 29: finest telicopter pilots, and the best pilot I ever flew

2048
02:08:39,640 --> 02:08:41,920
Speaker 29: with was a young guy named Chris Bannon. Had to

2049
02:08:41,920 --> 02:08:45,560
Speaker 29: get that out there. Chris was an awesome co pilot.

2050
02:08:45,600 --> 02:08:49,640
Speaker 29: We made a difference in the war. First of all,

2051
02:08:49,680 --> 02:08:52,800
Speaker 29: the Navy is the away team, so we are deployed,

2052
02:08:53,160 --> 02:08:56,600
Speaker 29: and everybody's been talking about shipbuilding. The President also talked

2053
02:08:56,600 --> 02:09:01,400
Speaker 29: about investing in shipyards, ammo and sailors. Right now, we

2054
02:09:01,480 --> 02:09:03,400
Speaker 29: have the lowest number of ships in the Navy we've

2055
02:09:03,440 --> 02:09:06,480
Speaker 29: ever had. We have ships that have to come into

2056
02:09:06,520 --> 02:09:09,200
Speaker 29: port give their ammunition to another ship before they go out.

2057
02:09:09,560 --> 02:09:11,760
Speaker 29: President Trump's going to solve that and we need to.

2058
02:09:11,960 --> 02:09:15,560
Speaker 29: So I'm grateful for the hammering home of the ship

2059
02:09:15,600 --> 02:09:20,040
Speaker 29: building and the investment in ship shipyards and again where

2060
02:09:20,040 --> 02:09:23,440
Speaker 29: the away team quantity has a quality all of its own.

2061
02:09:23,800 --> 02:09:24,440
Speaker 2: And the President.

2062
02:09:24,480 --> 02:09:27,640
Speaker 29: When you meet the President, and even Bill Maher said, hey,

2063
02:09:27,640 --> 02:09:29,760
Speaker 29: when you're in the White House with him, he's not

2064
02:09:29,840 --> 02:09:33,360
Speaker 29: the guy you see elsewhere. He grew up in construction.

2065
02:09:33,720 --> 02:09:36,080
Speaker 29: I'll tell you when I walked into the Oval Office,

2066
02:09:36,080 --> 02:09:38,040
Speaker 29: he would get up from his desk and walk right

2067
02:09:38,080 --> 02:09:41,000
Speaker 29: over and shake your hand. I mean, he is a

2068
02:09:41,040 --> 02:09:43,600
Speaker 29: man's man. He's a man of the people. He's down

2069
02:09:43,640 --> 02:09:46,400
Speaker 29: and dirty in the you know, in the trenches with

2070
02:09:46,480 --> 02:09:52,280
Speaker 29: all American people, not these politicians that do nothing. So

2071
02:09:52,960 --> 02:09:55,360
Speaker 29: the President, I mean, he's got a grasp on this,

2072
02:09:55,560 --> 02:09:58,000
Speaker 29: and we in nineteen I have to say, in the

2073
02:09:58,080 --> 02:10:00,880
Speaker 29: year two thousand, I was hosted on board Chinese ship

2074
02:10:00,960 --> 02:10:04,240
Speaker 29: and the toast was to the greatest navy in the world,

2075
02:10:04,800 --> 02:10:08,600
Speaker 29: from the fastest growing navy in the world. I tell you,

2076
02:10:08,960 --> 02:10:12,280
Speaker 29: China is our adversary and I hope that we never

2077
02:10:12,360 --> 02:10:16,760
Speaker 29: see American ships underwater due to the Chinese fleet. So

2078
02:10:16,800 --> 02:10:20,440
Speaker 29: we need to build those ships. We need to invest

2079
02:10:20,480 --> 02:10:23,880
Speaker 29: in those shipyards, and we have to arm them completely

2080
02:10:23,880 --> 02:10:29,879
Speaker 29: one with AMO, every ship, every armory. So the President's

2081
02:10:29,920 --> 02:10:32,000
Speaker 29: doing a great job. He's focused.

2082
02:10:34,000 --> 02:10:37,640
Speaker 2: So yeah, we got some to make those tough decisions.

2083
02:10:38,200 --> 02:10:40,240
Speaker 2: We got some tough decisions to make because the defense

2084
02:10:40,280 --> 02:10:42,480
Speaker 2: budget of tree over treeion dollars, You're going to have

2085
02:10:42,520 --> 02:10:45,280
Speaker 2: to make some tough des Look, I'm all for. I

2086
02:10:45,280 --> 02:10:48,879
Speaker 2: think it's the strategic logic of whether it's hemispheric defense

2087
02:10:49,600 --> 02:10:52,120
Speaker 2: and or as I say, you've got to be more

2088
02:10:52,160 --> 02:10:54,920
Speaker 2: confrontational with the Chinese Communist Party. And I realized the

2089
02:10:54,920 --> 02:10:56,760
Speaker 2: new defense we're going to talk about this week. I

2090
02:10:56,760 --> 02:11:00,520
Speaker 2: think the new defense strategy a little bit downplay the

2091
02:11:01,760 --> 02:11:04,400
Speaker 2: issue between the Chinese Commist Party in the United States

2092
02:11:04,440 --> 02:11:06,720
Speaker 2: maybe talks about China as a regional power. It's not

2093
02:11:06,760 --> 02:11:09,440
Speaker 2: a regional power, it's not an East Asia power. It's

2094
02:11:09,480 --> 02:11:12,400
Speaker 2: not just control the South China Sea and the Straits

2095
02:11:12,400 --> 02:11:14,240
Speaker 2: of Taiwan. Oh, they do want to do that. They

2096
02:11:14,280 --> 02:11:16,040
Speaker 2: want to push us out of the Three Island chain,

2097
02:11:16,080 --> 02:11:18,480
Speaker 2: they want to push us back across the Pacific, and

2098
02:11:18,520 --> 02:11:21,080
Speaker 2: they also want to have a dominance in South Asia,

2099
02:11:21,160 --> 02:11:24,240
Speaker 2: particularly around the Indo Pacific, but we'll get into that

2100
02:11:24,360 --> 02:11:26,920
Speaker 2: more this week. Admiral Hall, where do people go on

2136
02:13:12,320 --> 02:13:16,800
Speaker 2: importance of submarines and most importantly this kind of relationship

02:13:16,920 --> 02:13:20,400
Speaker 2: alliance we have with our brothers and sisters in Australia

2138
02:13:20,960 --> 02:13:23,480

Speaker 28: Sure, Thank you very much Steve for having me over

2142
02:13:31,440 --> 02:13:33,440
Speaker 28: on the show on such a moment as occasion, and

2143
02:13:33,520 --> 02:13:38,640
Speaker 28: before I talk of submarines, I want to recognize our

2144
02:13:38,680 --> 02:13:40,800
Speaker 28: men and women in uniform. Today we serve in the

2145
02:13:40,920 --> 02:13:43,240
Speaker 28: Navy both at home, abroad and in the high seas.

2146
02:13:43,760 --> 02:13:46,000
Speaker 2: This display at short force we saw today is.

2147
02:13:45,960 --> 02:13:48,840
Speaker 28: First and foremost a messassage to our current troops but

2148
02:13:48,880 --> 02:13:52,320
Speaker 28: also the future ones enlisting, And in that sense, the

2149
02:13:52,560 --> 02:13:55,880
Speaker 28: Secretary of the Navy Fellon spoke of a very high

2150
02:13:55,880 --> 02:13:59,360
Speaker 28: pace of recruitment, which is I think a commensurate with

2151
02:13:59,840 --> 02:14:05,200
Speaker 28: the both the President Trump's doctrine of reinvigorating and recapitalizing

2152
02:14:05,200 --> 02:14:09,840
Speaker 28: our navy, focusing obviously all of the political and the

2153
02:14:09,880 --> 02:14:14,600
Speaker 28: industrial might of the United States to continue being the

2154
02:14:15,920 --> 02:14:21,200
Speaker 28: greatest naval force the world over in a obviously more

2155
02:14:21,240 --> 02:14:28,160
Speaker 28: perilous world, where freedom of navigation and reassuring allies and

2156
02:14:28,400 --> 02:14:34,920
Speaker 28: deterring adversaries remain and you know, first and foremost a priority.

2157
02:14:35,920 --> 02:14:39,120
Speaker 28: I think today was a very strong message not just

2158
02:14:39,160 --> 02:14:41,800
Speaker 28: sent to the troops, but also sent to our partners

2159
02:14:42,080 --> 02:14:46,480
Speaker 28: and our adversaries. And in that sense, I think to

2160
02:14:46,600 --> 02:14:50,680
Speaker 28: those pundits at home and those allies and partners abroad

2161
02:14:50,720 --> 02:14:54,480
Speaker 28: who have talked a big talk about the US foreign

2162
02:14:54,480 --> 02:14:59,320
Speaker 28: policy being in retreat, the Aucus Alliance, I think is

2163
02:14:59,320 --> 02:15:04,640
Speaker 28: a very strong case against that perceived retreat. And I

2164
02:15:04,720 --> 02:15:08,960
Speaker 28: want to recognize Under Secretary Albert Colby, who was tasked

2165
02:15:09,000 --> 02:15:14,080
Speaker 28: with a very difficult UH review process for a program

2166
02:15:14,120 --> 02:15:18,720
Speaker 28: that President Trump inherited from his predecessor, which brought together

2167
02:15:18,840 --> 02:15:24,160
Speaker 28: the UK and Australia and the US to to project

2168
02:15:25,760 --> 02:15:30,320
Speaker 28: or to continue projecting naval supremacy in in the Indo Pacific,

2169
02:15:30,360 --> 02:15:33,640
Speaker 28: a very large body of water, obviously, and one where

2170
02:15:33,680 --> 02:15:37,200
Speaker 28: they are at any given moment at least six seven

2171
02:15:37,320 --> 02:15:43,400
Speaker 28: territorial disputes between UH China's people liberation, UH Navy or

2172
02:15:43,480 --> 02:15:48,080
Speaker 28: its maritime militia, and and our allies in the region

2173
02:15:48,160 --> 02:15:53,280
Speaker 28: from the Philippines to Vietnam, to Malaysia or Japan, Taiwan,

2174
02:15:53,440 --> 02:15:58,960
Speaker 28: Korea or or Indonesia, and and and so reaffirming our

2175
02:15:58,960 --> 02:16:04,520
Speaker 28: commitment to aucus this forty year program which would build

2176
02:16:05,400 --> 02:16:08,800
Speaker 28: in the US three Virginia class submarines to transfer to

2177
02:16:08,880 --> 02:16:13,520
Speaker 28: Australia and have some sort of a transfer of production

2178
02:16:13,600 --> 02:16:18,800
Speaker 28: and transfer of technology and partnership in collaboration with the UK,

2179
02:16:18,960 --> 02:16:21,640
Speaker 28: the only partner we've ever done a transfer of technology

2180
02:16:21,640 --> 02:16:26,080
Speaker 28: and the nuclear power propulsion realm for Australia to deter

2181
02:16:26,960 --> 02:16:30,080
Speaker 28: first to reassure our friends and allies in the region

2182
02:16:30,600 --> 02:16:35,360
Speaker 28: and also give predictability to our adversaries. Deterrence is the

2183
02:16:35,440 --> 02:16:39,279
Speaker 28: name of the game. Peace through strength is a doctrine,

2184
02:16:39,680 --> 02:16:46,000
Speaker 28: and in fact, stealth is probably today the single most

2185
02:16:46,000 --> 02:16:51,000
Speaker 28: important element of our nuclear triad because in an age

2186
02:16:51,120 --> 02:16:53,920
Speaker 28: of shifting innovations in.

2187
02:16:55,879 --> 02:16:56,560
Speaker 5: The war.

2188
02:16:58,120 --> 02:17:02,280
Speaker 28: Scenarios that we are seeing in Ukraine and elsewhere, low

2189
02:17:02,320 --> 02:17:10,359
Speaker 28: tech technologies, low tech weapons systems are increasingly threatening very expensive,

2190
02:17:10,520 --> 02:17:16,000
Speaker 28: very complex systems and platforms. And whether it is you

2191
02:17:16,360 --> 02:17:21,880
Speaker 28: unmanned surface drones or underwater drones or aerial drones that

2192
02:17:21,959 --> 02:17:26,240
Speaker 28: are having a major impact on conventional warfare for a

2193
02:17:26,360 --> 02:17:29,960
Speaker 28: very low cost. I might add it is absolutely fundamental

2194
02:17:30,120 --> 02:17:34,440
Speaker 28: that our submarine fleet remains the strongest fleet in the

2195
02:17:34,480 --> 02:17:38,640
Speaker 28: world and continues to grow. And America First does not

2196
02:17:38,720 --> 02:17:44,400
Speaker 28: necessarily mean America alone, far from that. I think AUCUS

2197
02:17:44,440 --> 02:17:47,800
Speaker 28: and reaffirming our commitment to AUCUS sends a message to

2198
02:17:47,840 --> 02:17:51,560
Speaker 28: our NATO partner, sends a message to our allies in

2199
02:17:51,600 --> 02:17:57,160
Speaker 28: the Pacific into Pacific that the US remains a steadfast

2200
02:17:57,160 --> 02:18:02,080
Speaker 28: partner in keeping freedom of navigation and deterring any kind

2201
02:18:02,120 --> 02:18:07,440
Speaker 28: of adversary, whether they're conventional, asymmetric or non state actors.

2202
02:18:07,800 --> 02:18:10,360
Speaker 28: So in that sense, I want to recognize both President

2203
02:18:10,400 --> 02:18:15,440
Speaker 28: and Trump and his Secretary of the War and Secretary

2204
02:18:15,480 --> 02:18:19,480
Speaker 28: of the Navy, but also the under Secretary Colby for

2205
02:18:19,560 --> 02:18:22,879
Speaker 28: having reaffirmed and sent a very strong message in that sense.

2206
02:18:23,800 --> 02:18:27,440
Speaker 2: No, Bridge, Colby's done a great job. Just this defense

2207
02:18:27,520 --> 02:18:30,600
Speaker 2: that is coming out about chining to be a regional

2208
02:18:30,640 --> 02:18:32,880
Speaker 2: problem versus global problem. We'll get to that later in

2209
02:18:32,920 --> 02:18:35,480
Speaker 2: the week. Stan, before I let you go on, give

2210
02:18:35,520 --> 02:18:38,240
Speaker 2: us a minute. You use the term that we've talked

2211
02:18:38,240 --> 02:18:40,760
Speaker 2: about today, but I don't think we've actually highlighted it.

2212
02:18:41,480 --> 02:18:42,840
Speaker 2: And this is why I'm saying there's gonna be some

2213
02:18:42,840 --> 02:18:47,480
Speaker 2: tough decisions and choices made. You use the term naval supremacy.

2214
02:18:48,000 --> 02:18:49,959
Speaker 2: What do you mean by naval supremacy and what does

2215
02:18:50,000 --> 02:18:51,279
Speaker 2: it mean in today's world?

2216
02:18:52,640 --> 02:18:56,199
Speaker 28: So, naval supremacy first and foremost is about freedom of navigation.

2217
02:18:56,800 --> 02:19:01,240
Speaker 28: And this is a big globe where we we exchange

2218
02:19:01,280 --> 02:19:04,760
Speaker 28: and trade goods with all partners around the world. And

2219
02:19:05,000 --> 02:19:09,920
Speaker 28: in centuries prior and even in decades prior, without a

2220
02:19:10,040 --> 02:19:16,160
Speaker 28: strong naval force and a leading globally capable naval force,

2221
02:19:16,600 --> 02:19:21,760
Speaker 28: piracy was a lot more common, and state actors could

2222
02:19:23,000 --> 02:19:27,800
Speaker 28: undermine significantly the trading order. And I think in this

2223
02:19:27,920 --> 02:19:34,160
Speaker 28: global world we need a force that can guarantee freedom

2224
02:19:34,160 --> 02:19:38,000
Speaker 28: of navigation first and foremost. But as we look at

2225
02:19:38,040 --> 02:19:41,840
Speaker 28: the Indo Pacific, such a large body and squath of water,

2226
02:19:42,360 --> 02:19:45,240
Speaker 28: and we see all these island nations that are constantly

2227
02:19:45,640 --> 02:19:50,320
Speaker 28: challenged in their economic exclusive economic zones and territorial waters.

2228
02:19:50,920 --> 02:19:55,080
Speaker 28: Naval supremacy also means projecting far from home base, the

2229
02:19:55,480 --> 02:19:58,959
Speaker 28: ability to deter those that might want to challenge the

2230
02:19:59,000 --> 02:20:03,000
Speaker 28: existing order. And in Indiando Pacific, for the most part,

2231
02:20:03,080 --> 02:20:06,240
Speaker 28: it means you know the people's liberation navy or their

2232
02:20:06,320 --> 02:20:13,400
Speaker 28: maritime militia, whether it is by way of building artificial

2233
02:20:13,440 --> 02:20:18,600
Speaker 28: reefs or whether it is by plowing fisheries near our

2234
02:20:18,680 --> 02:20:23,680
Speaker 28: shores in South America, in the Galapagos, in Argentina, challenging

2235
02:20:24,240 --> 02:20:28,560
Speaker 28: those navies and ways that they're incapable of responding on

2236
02:20:28,600 --> 02:20:34,040
Speaker 28: an equal footing the US Navy, and that US naval

2237
02:20:34,080 --> 02:20:36,360
Speaker 28: supremacy is more important than.

2238
02:20:36,280 --> 02:20:41,280
Speaker 2: Ever stan Where do people go to find out you're

2239
02:20:41,280 --> 02:20:44,120
Speaker 2: writing your thinking social media? Are you old school and

2240
02:20:44,160 --> 02:20:45,160
Speaker 2: don't do social media?

2241
02:20:46,320 --> 02:20:49,000
Speaker 28: So a bit like the submarines that we spend a

2242
02:20:49,000 --> 02:20:52,240
Speaker 28: lot of time trying to connect capital with industry and

2243
02:20:52,320 --> 02:20:55,519
Speaker 28: policy decision making. We try to remain.

2244
02:20:55,240 --> 02:20:56,439
Speaker 9: As stealth as possible.

2245
02:20:56,560 --> 02:21:00,240
Speaker 28: Obviously we have a LinkedIn bait, we have an you know,

2246
02:21:00,280 --> 02:21:02,760
Speaker 28: an ex account, but for the most part is to

2247
02:21:02,800 --> 02:21:06,520
Speaker 28: watch your show and not really post anything. I did

2248
02:21:06,560 --> 02:21:10,920
Speaker 28: post something yesterday in French media about the German submarine

2249
02:21:10,959 --> 02:21:15,440
Speaker 28: manufacturer TKMS going partly public in Frankfurt and what the

2250
02:21:15,440 --> 02:21:19,000
Speaker 28: implications are for those conventional submarines.

2251
02:21:19,040 --> 02:21:20,080
Speaker 5: I do want to say there was.

2252
02:21:20,080 --> 02:21:22,720
Speaker 28: A very good article that came out in the US

2253
02:21:23,040 --> 02:21:27,560
Speaker 28: Naval Institute's website by Lieutenant Commander Jim Hassel, who makes

2254
02:21:27,560 --> 02:21:31,280
Speaker 28: the case that conventional submarines should be incorporated into the

2255
02:21:31,400 --> 02:21:36,400
Speaker 28: US Navy to bring lethality for faster and cheaper with

2256
02:21:36,520 --> 02:21:41,080
Speaker 28: less men service members. And that's certainly one of the

2257
02:21:41,120 --> 02:21:45,359
Speaker 28: policy recommendations that we're putting forth with this administration.

2258
02:21:47,160 --> 02:21:48,600
Speaker 2: We're going to have you on to talk about that.

2259
02:21:48,600 --> 02:21:52,200
Speaker 2: Diesel boat diesel boat, diesel boat submarines and diesel boat

2260
02:21:52,240 --> 02:21:53,440
Speaker 2: skippers will appreciate that.

2261
02:21:53,560 --> 02:21:54,000
Speaker 5: Stand.

2262
02:21:54,320 --> 02:21:55,959
Speaker 2: Thank you so much, look forward to having you back

2263
02:21:56,000 --> 02:21:56,440
Speaker 2: on the show.

2264
02:21:57,160 --> 02:22:01,360
Speaker 9: Thank you again, Steve. Have a great evening.

2265
02:22:01,400 --> 02:22:03,119
Speaker 2: Before we close out today, I got to bring in

2266
02:22:03,879 --> 02:22:08,199
Speaker 2: uh taje. You've been You've answered last call a couple

2267
02:22:08,280 --> 02:22:13,039
Speaker 2: three times in your life. You're my anchorman here today.

2268
02:22:13,080 --> 02:22:14,120
Speaker 2: What was it about, sir?

2269
02:22:16,760 --> 02:22:18,680
Speaker 15: It was about celebrating the history of the Navy two

2270
02:22:18,760 --> 02:22:22,560
Speaker 15: hundred and fifty years. That's pretty amazing. And then Trump,

2271
02:22:22,600 --> 02:22:27,240
Speaker 15: Trump bringing everything back to life, like just breathing new

2272
02:22:27,400 --> 02:22:31,400
Speaker 15: fresh life into the military. And you know, he he

2273
02:22:31,560 --> 02:22:36,320
Speaker 15: topped pete hegseth. And all you need in life is

2274
02:22:36,959 --> 02:22:39,760
Speaker 15: some leadership and guidance. Whether you're a self starter, you

2275
02:22:39,760 --> 02:22:41,160
Speaker 15: need someone else to give it to you. If you

2276
02:22:41,160 --> 02:22:44,160
Speaker 15: have leadership, the correct leadership and the correct guidance, and

2277
02:22:44,320 --> 02:22:48,320
Speaker 15: you're gonna win. And as we can see in the

2278
02:22:48,360 --> 02:22:52,119
Speaker 15: Red Sea under Biden, there was no freedom of navigation.

2279
02:22:52,200 --> 02:22:54,119
Speaker 15: That the Who the hoot He's owned it. They're they're

2280
02:22:54,680 --> 02:22:58,160
Speaker 15: shooting rockets and missiles and drones at ships all the time.

2281
02:22:58,240 --> 02:23:01,279
Speaker 15: And then Trump came in and within sixty days it's

2282
02:23:01,920 --> 02:23:05,520
Speaker 15: back open for business. And that you know, he signed

2283
02:23:05,560 --> 02:23:07,640
Speaker 15: some kind of agreement with the WHO He's Basically they

2284
02:23:07,680 --> 02:23:15,360
Speaker 15: capitulated and shut down their piracy operations. And in the

2285
02:23:15,520 --> 02:23:19,879
Speaker 15: incredible thing is this recruiting numbers are the highest ever

2286
02:23:20,040 --> 02:23:23,160
Speaker 15: for the US Navy. So the leadership and guidance and

2287
02:23:23,240 --> 02:23:26,480
Speaker 15: there to Trump and then he just motivates people wherever

2288
02:23:26,520 --> 02:23:28,560
Speaker 15: he goes. Like I was watching a video of him

2289
02:23:28,560 --> 02:23:30,560
Speaker 15: flying in with their Force ones with F thirty five

2290
02:23:30,600 --> 02:23:33,920
Speaker 15: is flying next to it. It's crazy. He's he's awesome.

2291
02:23:33,959 --> 02:23:36,120
Speaker 15: He know he but he's done this his whole life.

2292
02:23:36,160 --> 02:23:37,760
Speaker 15: You know, I was watching him as a kid in

2293
02:23:37,800 --> 02:23:40,280
Speaker 15: Hollywood and you know he was in home alone. That

2294
02:23:41,360 --> 02:23:45,440
Speaker 15: what his other TV shows and everything. Trump's amazing. He's

2295
02:23:45,440 --> 02:23:48,160
Speaker 15: a man. He's not perfect. He doesn't do everything right,

2296
02:23:48,600 --> 02:23:53,000
Speaker 15: but he's almost perfect. And he's exactly what America needs,

2297
02:23:53,000 --> 02:23:54,119
Speaker 15: and he's exactly what.

2298
02:23:54,080 --> 02:23:54,800
Speaker 9: The Navy needs.

2299
02:23:54,800 --> 02:23:57,040
Speaker 15: He's breathing new life into the Navy. They're gonna build

2300
02:23:57,120 --> 02:24:00,480
Speaker 15: new ships, they're going to refurbish the old ones, getting

2301
02:24:00,560 --> 02:24:03,400
Speaker 15: new weapons, new armament. They're getting rid of the rid

2302
02:24:03,400 --> 02:24:05,000
Speaker 15: of the woke stuff. So they're going to bring the

2303
02:24:05,200 --> 02:24:08,360
Speaker 15: lethality back into our fighting force. And they're getting the

2304
02:24:08,400 --> 02:24:10,640
Speaker 15: most important thing is they're getting rid of DEI. So

2305
02:24:10,760 --> 02:24:13,080
Speaker 15: everything is gonna be merit based. So we're gonna have

2306
02:24:13,120 --> 02:24:17,440
Speaker 15: the best fighting force with the best training, the best equipment,

2307
02:24:17,760 --> 02:24:20,360
Speaker 15: and we're going to be respected and feared around the world.

2308
02:24:20,480 --> 02:24:23,840
Speaker 15: That's that's what our military is there for. Like they

2309
02:24:23,840 --> 02:24:28,959
Speaker 15: guy stand with saying it's about deterrence. Nobody respects an

2310
02:24:29,000 --> 02:24:32,400
Speaker 15: adversary that it's like, you know, half assi, it doesn't

2311
02:24:32,400 --> 02:24:35,800
Speaker 15: bring their A game to the table. So under Trump,

2312
02:24:35,840 --> 02:24:38,640
Speaker 15: he's breathing new life into our military, and our military

2313
02:24:38,680 --> 02:24:39,520
Speaker 15: is bringing back.

2314
02:24:39,400 --> 02:24:40,040
Speaker 26: The A game.

2315
02:24:40,440 --> 02:24:43,680
Speaker 15: We're gonna have the best people, the best training, the

2316
02:24:43,680 --> 02:24:46,520
Speaker 15: best equipment, and nobody's gonna want to mess with us.

2317
02:24:46,800 --> 02:24:49,720
Speaker 15: That's that's deterrence. That's what the military is for. And

2318
02:24:49,760 --> 02:24:53,199
Speaker 15: then the other thing is he said we're gonna start

2319
02:24:53,200 --> 02:24:56,240
Speaker 15: winning again. Like World War One, World War two, we

2320
02:24:56,360 --> 02:24:59,600
Speaker 15: won flat out period, full surrender. Right, that's what it's about.

2321
02:25:01,000 --> 02:25:04,400
Speaker 15: And peace through strengths, So I don't need If we

2322
02:25:04,440 --> 02:25:07,640
Speaker 15: don't need to do that, then yeah, that's what the

2323
02:25:07,640 --> 02:25:09,840
Speaker 15: deterrence is. But if we go to war, we have

2324
02:25:09,920 --> 02:25:14,040
Speaker 15: to win. When when win, none of that nation building

2325
02:25:14,520 --> 02:25:17,320
Speaker 15: and occupying like we're talking about yesterday Venezuela. If we

2326
02:25:17,360 --> 02:25:20,200
Speaker 15: take these boards, that's easy, but we always get bogged

2327
02:25:20,200 --> 02:25:22,240
Speaker 15: down when we do this nation building thing. When we

2328
02:25:22,360 --> 02:25:26,680
Speaker 15: occupy these countries for a decade or more and everything

2329
02:25:26,720 --> 02:25:27,840
Speaker 15: gets screwed up.

2330
02:25:28,160 --> 02:25:29,880
Speaker 2: You go in and win and leave.

2331
02:25:30,040 --> 02:25:30,800
Speaker 15: And that's how you do.

2332
02:25:30,760 --> 02:25:35,640
Speaker 2: It, frocity and precision. As Pete Hexas said the other day,

2333
02:25:35,640 --> 02:25:37,680
Speaker 2: I want to tell people also this thing about people

2334
02:25:37,720 --> 02:25:39,520
Speaker 2: come a peace through strain and peace through straint will

2335
02:25:39,520 --> 02:25:42,560
Speaker 2: look a lot of people just think that means building

2336
02:25:42,600 --> 02:25:45,039
Speaker 2: more arms, having a bigger defense budget, bar and more

2337
02:25:45,080 --> 02:25:48,440
Speaker 2: weapons systems. We saw into Biden and all that spending money.

2338
02:25:48,600 --> 02:25:51,520
Speaker 2: They don't fear you. They don't fear your lethality. And

2339
02:25:51,560 --> 02:25:53,200
Speaker 2: if you don't, if they don't fear that you've got

2340
02:25:53,200 --> 02:25:57,160
Speaker 2: the political will to use it and to take guys

2341
02:25:57,200 --> 02:26:00,480
Speaker 2: down into win, then you're not. There's no peace to strength.

2342
02:26:00,480 --> 02:26:03,920
Speaker 2: Peace too. Strangths means people fear you, and they know

2343
02:26:04,000 --> 02:26:06,760
Speaker 2: that if you're pushed when you bring it. It's like

2344
02:26:06,800 --> 02:26:12,040
Speaker 2: the total obliteration that ended the Twelve Day War. President

2345
02:26:12,040 --> 02:26:15,039
Speaker 2: Trump hit and hit hard and moved on, and the

2346
02:26:15,200 --> 02:26:17,800
Speaker 2: Iranians have kind of never recovered of that. And quite frankly,

2347
02:26:17,840 --> 02:26:21,560
Speaker 2: that was a central building block to what President Trump's

2348
02:26:21,560 --> 02:26:24,320
Speaker 2: gonna face when he gets back. Remember President Trump's leaving

2349
02:26:24,320 --> 02:26:26,040
Speaker 2: here is now going to go back. He gave him

2350
02:26:26,040 --> 02:26:28,560
Speaker 2: a six o'clock deadline. I think they've moved that because

2351
02:26:28,600 --> 02:26:32,640
Speaker 2: of his negotiators, Jared Kushner and Whitcoffer now at the

2352
02:26:32,680 --> 02:26:35,280
Speaker 2: resort town in Eachypt on the Red Sea to start

2353
02:26:35,320 --> 02:26:37,480
Speaker 2: the negotiations, kind of wind this thing up. But you

2354
02:26:37,520 --> 02:26:40,560
Speaker 2: can tell for reports coming out today in Axios, in

2355
02:26:41,080 --> 02:26:43,760
Speaker 2: the Washington Post, New York Times, president Trump's not kidding,

2356
02:26:43,760 --> 02:26:46,400
Speaker 2: writing what's put this deal together? And he's gonna hammer.

2357
02:26:46,440 --> 02:26:50,560
Speaker 2: He's gonna hammer some people bang heads to make it happen.

2358
02:26:50,920 --> 02:26:52,800
Speaker 2: One thing I did notice today. I want to tell

2359
02:26:52,840 --> 02:26:54,959
Speaker 2: the audience. I've said, hey, it looks like President Trump

2360
02:26:55,000 --> 02:26:58,480
Speaker 2: is I mean, really tired of a couple times this week.

2361
02:26:58,600 --> 02:27:01,480
Speaker 2: You see, he's doing so much. He was like a

2362
02:27:01,520 --> 02:27:04,879
Speaker 2: young man today. His energy, his enthusiasm. He fed off this.

2363
02:27:05,000 --> 02:27:06,520
Speaker 2: He's been waiting to do this a long time. He

2364
02:27:06,560 --> 02:27:09,640
Speaker 2: absolutely loved it. You could tell the energy, the enthusiasms.

2365
02:27:09,640 --> 02:27:13,080
Speaker 2: Fun right now. When we leave, he's having fun. When

2366
02:27:13,080 --> 02:27:16,720
Speaker 2: we leave this broadcast, I need a pot of Warpath coffee.

2367
02:27:16,720 --> 02:27:19,240

2377
02:27:46,480 --> 02:27:49,520
Speaker 15: roasted on a perforated drum, so we don't burn it

2378
02:27:49,640 --> 02:27:52,920
Speaker 15: at all whatsoever, so you can just drink it straight black.

2379
02:27:52,959 --> 02:27:55,400
Speaker 15: You don't need to hide the burnt taste with milk

2380
02:27:55,440 --> 02:27:58,720
Speaker 15: and sugar. Just straight black and you can actually enjoy

2383
02:28:06,000 --> 02:28:08,080
Speaker 2: best weapon, the seals. We got the best weapons. We

2384
02:28:08,200 --> 02:28:10,760
Speaker 2: got the best material, the best equipment, the best training,

2385
02:28:10,840 --> 02:28:14,280
Speaker 2: the best leadership. We're the best commandos in the world.

2386
02:28:14,680 --> 02:28:17,360
Speaker 2: But we got nothing but navy brew right off a destroyer.
