1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,960 Speaker 1: The US, Israel, and Iran agreed that a ceasefire is 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:08,040 Speaker 1: now in effect, but the contradicting each other and themselves 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,040 Speaker 1: in terms of what's actually been agreed to and what's 4 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: happened what happens now Tonight. The speaker of Iran's parliament 5 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:19,319 Speaker 1: claims three clauses of its workable proposal to Trump have. 6 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 2: Already been violated. 7 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,960 Speaker 1: That includes new Israeli strikes today in Lebanon, which Israel 8 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:26,599 Speaker 1: has refused to stop. 9 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 3: Iran also claims its. 10 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,319 Speaker 1: Right to nuclear enrichment was laid out very much in 11 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 1: a ten point plan accepted by Trump, but the White 12 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 1: House suggested a ten point plan reported today by Iranian 13 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: state media was well just an early draft. 14 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 4: Vance. Is set to attend face to face talks with 15 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 4: Ron along with the Trump Special Envoy Steve Whitcoff and 16 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 4: his son in law, Jared Kushner, in Pakistan on Saturday. 17 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 4: Iron's delegation is expected to arrive tonight. The President posted 18 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 4: overnight that the United States military will be remaining in 19 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 4: the region in place, as he put it, quote, until 20 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 4: such time as the real agreement is reached is fully 21 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 4: complied with if for any reason it is not, which 22 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 4: is highly unlikely, he writes. 23 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 5: Then he levels the new threat. 24 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 4: The shooting starts, bigger and better and stronger than anyone 25 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 4: has ever seen before. 26 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 6: Clear it up in any kind of actual ceasefire agreement. 27 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 7: I think with horrible administrations that's the case. Normally, you 28 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 7: have a text and all the sides look at it 29 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 7: and change sentences or words or phrases. This latest ceasefire, 30 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 7: which evidently was at the initiative of the US administration 31 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 7: and they used Pakistan to break it about, seems to 32 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 7: have been off the cuff, and it seemed to have 33 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 7: included a full se session of all hostilities to include Lebanon, 34 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 7: but evidently Israel wasn't consultant enough or. 35 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 3: Agreed to disagree. 36 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 7: So this is why we have a ceasefire that never 37 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 7: took hold, that no sides are living up to except 38 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 7: the US military, which is where we are now. 39 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 8: I think there's a lot of concern that it's clearly 40 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 8: a very tenuous, fragile ceasefire at this moment, and I 41 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 8: think one of the biggest concerns as we're waking up 42 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 8: this morning is just how much confusion there is as 43 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 8: to what was exactly agreed upon when both sides announced 44 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 8: that they were joining this two week seasfire. You mentioned, 45 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,679 Speaker 8: you know what's happening with these Israeli attacks on Hesbola 46 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,119 Speaker 8: and Lebanon is a crucial, crucially sticking point. 47 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 5: I think one of the biggest. 48 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 8: Parts of the ceasefire was Iran agreeing to reopen the 49 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 8: Strait of Horrmus. You heard the White House Caroline Love 50 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 8: at the Press Secretary arguing yesterday that they had seen 51 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 8: some traffic ticking up in the street, but that was 52 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 8: very minimal. 53 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 5: Aron later said that. 54 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 8: They were closing it because of those ongoing attacks in Lebanon, 55 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 8: and really coming down to what we heard the Vice 56 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 8: President argue, was just a fundamental misunderstanding of whether or 57 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 8: not Lebanon was exactly in the agreement, and so that 58 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 8: has created a lot of consternation and of course something 59 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 8: we have to see how that is going to be resolved. 60 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 8: You did hear the Vice President just after that clip 61 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,399 Speaker 8: you played. He went on to say that Israel might 62 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 8: be checking themselves when it comes to their attacks on Lebanon. 63 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 8: We'll have to see if that's actually what the path 64 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 8: forward is here, if Israel will be the one to 65 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 8: seize those attacks to try and ensure that the strait 66 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 8: is reopened and this ceasefire remains intact. But I think 67 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 8: another big part of all of this, Kate, is also 68 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 8: again what are exactly the points that they are basing, 69 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 8: you know, using as the basis for the negotiations that 70 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 8: are set to kick off in person in Islamabad this weekend. 71 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 8: One of the things that was most notable to me, 72 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 8: I know that you know, shortly after that ceasefire proposal 73 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 8: was agreed to Tuesday night, you saw aaran their Supreme 74 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 8: National Security Council putting out this statement that included what 75 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 8: they argued were the ten points, something CNN reported on. 76 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 8: The President I was told was very livid about that statement. 77 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 8: He tried to characterize the CNN's statement, ex the CNN 78 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 8: reporting on that statement as fake. But we have not 79 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 8: seen any type of language. We have asked repeatedly now 80 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 8: from the White House and our sources, what are the 81 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 8: ten points then that this is based on. You heard 82 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 8: the White House Press Secretary yesterday say the ten points 83 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 8: that have been flying around. They had a run and 84 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 8: initially given the United States ten points. They threw that 85 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 8: in the garbage. Now they're using a separate ten points 86 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 8: as the basis for these talks, but again we have 87 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 8: not seen those, and we still are wondering exactly what 88 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 8: the fifteen point plan, what the specifics of that are, 89 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 8: and so there's so much confusion around this. From my 90 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 8: conversations with my sources in that building behind me, they 91 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 8: do tell me they are confident that the talks this 92 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 8: weekend will continue and they are hoping that can kind 93 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 8: of clear a lot of this up and be the 94 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 8: start of potentially several intense negotiations to come. But again, 95 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 8: very fragile this morning, and a lot of questions about 96 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 8: how this is actually going to proceed if. 97 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 6: I mean Iran is now in control the straight of 98 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 6: her moves they were not previously, they didn't have official 99 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 6: con roll over it. Certainly the Irani nuclear program, obviously, 100 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 6: they've suffered huge losses in terms of infrastructure and ballistic 101 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 6: missiles and the like. They're still obviously able to shoot 102 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 6: down some US planes and they're able to fire drones 103 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 6: and others at neighboring countries, but their nuclear program or 104 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 6: their nuclear desires remain, and the regime seems the same 105 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 6: and or perhaps more hardline, less experienced. Do you believe 106 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 6: Iran is in a stronger position now than before the 107 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 6: war in a strange way, not a. 108 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 3: Strange way, in an obvious way. 109 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 7: They're strategically they have a position of strategic strength going 110 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 7: into the negotiations. The US had a big strength stick, 111 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 7: it brandish for years, it's military. 112 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 3: They used it. 113 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 7: The dreadful has already happened, and now what Ron realizes 114 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,799 Speaker 7: that it can take that punch. Additionally, Iran has found 115 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 7: a big stick of its own. Up until now it 116 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 7: it hesitated using, which is control of the Straight of Horboes. 117 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 7: And don't forget even though it's closed now, even when 118 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 7: it's putatively open under the seafire, Iran says they're only 119 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 7: going to let through about twelve ships a day. So 120 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 7: Iran is found a piece of hyper strategic deterreds to 121 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 7: replace the three pillars that lost before. And finally, you're 122 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 7: quite right, Anderson. The new government that we put into 123 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 7: place as a result of decapitation is far more militaristic 124 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 7: and far more hardline. So any type of deal the 125 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 7: US can get out of this now is going to 126 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 7: be far worse than the deal we could have gotten. 127 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 3: On February twenty seventh, given. 128 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 4: What we have seen in Lebanon today and to increase 129 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 4: a toxic iSER organ is there. 130 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 9: Any concern that Magnan who is trying to kill the ceasefire? 131 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 10: Of course there should be a concern. I mean Nanya 132 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 10: who reportedly convinced Trump to start this war to begin 133 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 10: with something you've tried with other presidents in the past. Well, 134 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 10: Nanna who was somehow meeting in the situation room, according 135 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 10: to the reporting. And the United States and Israel have 136 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 10: had different objectives from the beginning, which is a huge 137 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 10: flag and has always been. And even when you get 138 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,679 Speaker 10: down to the details of how the Flimsay deal came together, 139 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 10: yesterday the Pakistani Prime Minister, who has been acting as 140 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 10: a mediator of the negotiations, specifically mentioned the ceasefire would 141 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 10: also take effect in Lebanon. And then within hours of 142 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 10: the seasfire, Israel launched the largest waves of attacks on 143 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 10: Lebanon in weeks and claimed Lebanon wasn't a part of 144 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 10: the ceasefire. Then jade Vance claimed today it was all 145 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 10: somehow a misunderstanding. 146 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 5: All sounds pretty sketchy to me. 147 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 11: Maya, I would emphasise these are really baby steps right 148 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 11: now there's no real indication that the strait is going 149 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 11: to reopen, and it seems like a flimsy ceasefire to say, 150 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 11: what's obvious. 151 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 9: I mean, Anderson, there's no indication that the Strait of 152 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 9: Horror Moves is open at this time. The Iranians have 153 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 9: said that it is closed, that they closed it once 154 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 9: again after IS began carrying out these very deadly strikes 155 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 9: that we saw in Lebanon today, strikes that even France 156 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 9: is condemning as indiscriminate tonight, the French president calling them indiscriminate. 157 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 9: What we have seen is that two Iranian vessels apparently 158 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 9: went through the strait earlier in the day and one 159 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 9: Chinese vessel went through. 160 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 5: That's according to the Iranians tonight. 161 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 9: You know, ship tracking data from a marine tracker is 162 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 9: showing no evidence of any ships passing through this strait. 163 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 9: And as you heard from the Vice president. 164 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 5: There, he has said that if the Iranians. 165 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 9: Don't open this straight, it's going to be problematic for 166 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 9: the United States, and whether the US keeps up its 167 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 9: commitments to this ceasefire that it doesn't carry out strikes 168 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 9: inside of Iran. So it really just seems like We're 169 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 9: in a very untenuous position here. 170 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 5: Something's going to have to change. 171 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 9: Either Iran's going to have to reopen the straight, the 172 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 9: US is going to have to pressure Israel not to 173 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 9: carry out strikes against Hezbala, or perhaps we see a 174 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 9: return to war. 175 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 12: And there are numerous items on the Iranian plan that 176 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 12: there's just no way we can accept. For removal of 177 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 12: all US forces, right to enrich, right to control the 178 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 12: Strait of Formus, and apparently they're even going to charge 179 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 12: in cryptocurrency to navigate the strait. I mean, they want 180 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 12: to turn this into their Panama Canal. So there's a 181 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 12: lot of very tough negotiating that's going to have to 182 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 12: take place. But you do see the leverage that Iran 183 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 12: is able to wield by this control of the Strait 184 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 12: of Formose and it could lead to President Trump insisting 185 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 12: that Prime Minister net and Yahoo cees operations in Lebanon. 186 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 12: In fact, I think one reason why you saw such 187 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 12: intense operations today was Israel taking advantage of whatever remaining 188 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 12: time they have to degrade Hbolla as far as they can, 189 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 12: and they have done a great deal of that to 190 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 12: ensure that they can't threaten Israel the way that they 191 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 12: have in the past. 192 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 13: There's a lot of bad faith negotiation and a lot 193 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 13: of bad faith you propaganda going on. I think this 194 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 13: comes from a legitimate misunderstanding. I think the Iranians thought 195 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 13: that the ceasefire included Lebanon, and it just didn't. We 196 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 13: never made that promise, We never indicated that was going 197 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 13: to be the case. What we said is that the 198 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 13: ceasefire would be focused on Iran and the ceasefire would 199 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 13: be focused on America's allies, both Israel and the Golf 200 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 13: are of states. Now that said, the Israelis, as I 201 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 13: understand it again, I'm supposed to get a fuller report 202 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 13: when I get on the plane, have actually offered, to 203 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 13: be frankly, to check themselves a little bit in Lebanon 204 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 13: because they want to make sure that our negotiation is successful. 205 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 13: That's not because that is part of the ceasefire. I 206 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 13: think that's the Israelis try to set up us up 207 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 13: for success. And we'll, of course see how that unfolds 208 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 13: in the next few days. But look, if Iran wants 209 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 13: to lead this negotiation fall apart in a conflict where 210 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 13: they were getting hammered over Lebanon, which has nothing to 211 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 13: do with them, and which the United States never once 212 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 13: said was part of the ceasefire. That's ultimately their choice. 213 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 13: We think that would be dumb, but that's their choice. 214 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 14: This is the primal scream of a dying regime. 215 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 15: Pray for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on 216 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 15: these people. 217 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: You've not got a free shot. 218 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 14: All these networks lying about the people. The people have 219 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 14: had a belly full of it. 220 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:14,839 Speaker 2: I know you don't like hearing that. 221 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 15: I know you've tried to do everything in the world 222 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 15: to stop that, but you're not going to stop it. 223 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 14: It's going to happen. 224 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 2: And where do people like that go to share the 225 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 2: big line? 226 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 16: Mega media? 227 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 17: I wish in my soul, I wish that any of 228 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 17: these people had a conscience. 229 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 15: Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? 230 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 15: If that answer is to save my country, this country 231 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 15: will be saved war. 232 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 16: Use your host, Stephen k Back. 233 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 15: It's Thursday, nine April in the year ver Lower, twenty 234 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 15: twenty six. Eric Bone's going to join us in a moment. 235 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 15: We're going to talk about markets and talk about this 236 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 15: current situation and the I think the Iranians have just 237 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 15: put a tweet. 238 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 2: A while ago. 239 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 15: I don't know one of the guys that says we're 240 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 15: negotiating with them that there's been so many violations of this. 241 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 15: There's been so many violations of this that it's you know, 242 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 15: the ceasefire is about to not hold. 243 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 14: I totally don't understand. I'll be blunt. 244 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 15: I just don't understand what the Vice President was talking 245 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 15: about right there. The Israelis, America's greatest ally, have not 246 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 15: set us up for success in any part of this war. 247 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 15: And I think we need to be blunt now with 248 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 15: the American people and also with the people across the table. 249 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 15: I think communications, particularly communications of objectives' goals, all of 250 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,199 Speaker 15: it would behoove us. 251 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 14: And no, the Israelis are not setting us up for success. 252 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 15: That would not be the case, and they need to 253 00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 15: be part of this, you know, global settlement of the 254 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 15: least things were put down, the weapons. I just don't 255 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 15: see us getting to assigned document. This is not going 256 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 15: to be like depan on the decks of the Missouri. 257 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 15: The reason is in the Wall Street Journal reports this. 258 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 15: I'm not saying it's a fact, but it's definitely a 259 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 15: fact in their mind. The Iranians think they're winning. They've 260 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 15: shifted the center of gravity to the Persian Gulf. 261 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 14: As we told you two and a. 262 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 15: Half weeks ago, they have taken the straight horror moves 263 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 15: and still have some sort of control of this bowling 264 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 15: to be here. I think twelve ships have gone through 265 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 15: versus one hundred and twenty five. We may come down 266 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 15: to a simple fact that the United States Navy and 267 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 15: combination with the Air Force and others, may have to 268 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 15: go and just open up the straits as the straits 269 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 15: have been open for decades and decades and decades. You 270 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 15: can't be a supplicant to these bandits. You can't be 271 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 15: a supplicate to a theocratic regime that the farther down 272 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 15: the food chain you go of killing. 273 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 2: You're just getting. 274 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 15: Harder and hardercore people because they were formed in this 275 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,839 Speaker 15: incredible World War One type atmosphere they had back in 276 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 15: the nineteen eighties. With Iraq, we've got a very determined enemy. 277 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 15: They're very determined. They're very determined, and they think they're winning. 278 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 15: We have to take away some pieces that they have 279 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 15: to show them they're not winning. 280 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 14: We're going to get into all this this warning, Eric 281 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 14: Bowen's going to join me. Also. We're going to talk about. 282 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 15: Do you do what Napoleon said, when you can't solve 283 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 15: a problem at one scale, you scale it up. 284 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 14: And deal with it. 285 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 15: There is the solution for this in Beijing in the 286 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 15: middle of May, when Donald Trump gets in the room 287 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 15: with she Principal to principle the Chinese camminist Party in 288 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 15: the United States of America. 289 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 14: Short commercial break back. 290 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 5: In the world on. 291 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 16: Use your host. Stephen K. 292 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 5: Bath. 293 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 14: Eric Bowling's with us. 294 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 15: We're gonna get more into this about the situation of 295 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 15: you know, we might have to open up destraight ourselves 296 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 15: might come down to that. You can't certainly be like 297 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 15: a supplicant in this situation, and you can't be as 298 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 15: supplicant with America's greatest Ally what they're doing in Lebanon, 299 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 15: there's plenty if that's what they're going to do, there's 300 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 15: plenty of time to do that. Doesn't it mean it 301 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 15: does not need to be done today unless they're trying 302 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 15: to get as much done as possible before the ref 303 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 15: blows the whistle, And in that case it's not acceptable. 304 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 15: We need to drive the the train here because this 305 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 15: is quite complicated and we're in it now. We're in 306 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 15: it now, and we have to win this thing. And 307 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 15: I'm very opposed to this war, and I'm very posed 308 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 15: to the war for exactly the reason we're in it 309 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 15: right now. And you see the New York Times article 310 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 15: which has not been refuted by anybody. Once again, this 311 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 15: was bad information, bad intelligence, pushed by the Israelis. And 312 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 15: if somebody can please give me a counter to that, 313 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 15: I'm open to it. But Tel Aviv Levin and this 314 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 15: crowd have not come up with it. I keep getting 315 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 15: back to forty seven years of being bad guys. Well 316 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 15: you know what, they are, bad guys.

They told us besides the imminent part, they 481 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 15: told us that the massive bombing would lead to a 482 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 15: major uprising, and not to worry about her moves, that 483 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 15: they wouldn't have the military capabilities after the first couple 484 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,919 Speaker 15: of days of strategic bombing to do anything in her moves. 485 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 15: Need to hear that countered by what the facts were, 486 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:45,719 Speaker 15: if those aren't the facts, because that is a major 487 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 15: strategic miscalculation. You know, we've heard seb Gork and other 488 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 15: trauba exquisite intelligence. I'm not saying it, you're not seeing 489 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 15: it now. Just remember whether it's a reality or not. 490 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,160 Speaker 15: These people think, These people think they're winning a think 491 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 15: they're driving the initiative. Now, Eric, you've said oil's funda fundtional. 492 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 15: Why all your guys at the money conference are asking 493 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,640 Speaker 15: about oil is because even President Trump's plan is predicated 494 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 15: upon full spectrum energy dominance. His ability to work to 495 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 15: drive energy prices down led to the Trump massive boom 496 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 15: in twenty nineteen, and it's leaders really led the way 497 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 15: of his his plan in the second term with Scott Besant, right, 498 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 15: and so that requires yesterday, I think I. 499 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:34,919 Speaker 14: Think we got hanging. I think we've got some bad news. 500 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 2: We're okay. 501 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 15: God, yeah, I think we got some bad news yesterday 502 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 15: because I believe the NATO meeting which went longer than 503 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 15: it was supposed to, and I don't believe the NATO 504 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 15: Secretary General came to the sticks. President Trump didn't bring 505 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 15: him into the Oval to have questions, which would normally 506 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,360 Speaker 15: happen if we had an upbeat meeting and had some 507 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 15: positive things to say, because I think they told them, Hey, 508 00:25:58,359 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 15: we just don't have the mill, we don't have the 509 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 15: naval assets to even be a reality here. 510 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 14: We've allowed these. 511 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 15: Guys to lean on us so long that they're sitting 512 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 15: there now and saying, we just we don't have the 513 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,360 Speaker 15: we don't have the resources, we don't have the assets. 514 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 15: So if it stays closed, hangover a second, Eric, ask 515 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 15: you to stay over. If we don't have the assets, 516 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 15: then you've got to keep it open. And the reason 517 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 15: you've got to keep it open or fight to keep 518 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 15: it open, is because it's in your benefit as much 519 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 15: as ours. Because of this, the integrated nature of the 520 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 15: world's energy and oil markets.

They want to talk about oil. 538 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 15: Why they want to talk about oil because energy is 539 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 15: the underlying predicate to an economy.

He's a dear friend and he's doing the 586 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 18: Lord's work over there. But this is going to be 587 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 18: a central issue that we've got to deal with. And 588 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 18: you know, I've been very clear to the administration privately 589 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 18: and publicly that will I very much support what the 590 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 18: President is doing. To try to reset the geopolitical landscape. 591 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 18: President Trump has a long vision about what we need 592 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 18: to do to put pressure on China and Russia and 593 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 18: to kind reclaimed the Western hemisphere and the actions of Venezuela. 594 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 18: But I've been very clear about not wanting a blank check, 595 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 18: that I wouldn't grant or agree to, or vote or 596 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 18: support a blank check, and that I wasn't interested in 597 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 18: boots on the ground unless we've got a very specific 598 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 18: and very concrete target admission that will be in and out. 599 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 18: I've said no more soccer fields. I don't want soccer 600 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 18: fields in Tehran. I didn't want them in Bagdad. And 601 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 18: we've never talked about this team. But in two thousand 602 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 18: and eight I went on a trip over to Bagdad 603 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 18: in the middle of that conflict, and I had a 604 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 18: three star general taking me around showing me soccer fields. 605 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 18: The American people didn't sign up to put menial women 606 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 18: in danger for that sort of thing. Now, the good 607 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 18: news is, I don't believe the President or Secretary of 608 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,479 Speaker 18: Hegseth or the leadership of this administration. 609 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 2: Want to do that. 610 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 18: But we've got a lot of complex issues that are 611 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 18: all coming together at once and as you said. Look, 612 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 18: I believe in you got to pay as you go 613 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 18: for any of this stuff. So put aside the defense 614 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 18: build up question, which we were already wrestling with before 615 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 18: engaging in Iran. Now we've got some requests for somewhere 616 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 18: between one hundred and two hundred billion dollars, and I 617 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 18: got to be on As you know, a bunch of 618 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 18: people from the Budget Committee went over the Pentagon before 619 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 18: this recess, visited with them, and they didn't deliver what 620 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 18: they needed to deliver in terms of specifics as to 621 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 18: what we would use money for to build munitions and 622 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 18: to make sure that the military is as modern as 623 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 18: it needs to be. 624 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 2: We have a job as Congress. 625 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 18: As much as I loved as president, in this administration, 626 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 18: we've got a job to do to hold them accountable. 627 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,719 Speaker 18: By the way, Phis is another issue that I'm going 628 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 18: to be on Monday when we come back. You know, 629 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 18: I'm not agreeing to move forward on FIS unless we're 630 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 18: going to protect American citizens from government spying. So there's 631 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:33,239 Speaker 18: a lot of issues we've got to keep working on. 632 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 15: I want to go back to your trip in two 633 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 15: thousand and eight. I remember you did I think you 634 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 15: did tell me about stort. I believe you took that 635 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 15: trip and they're talking about soccer fields and the amount 636 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 15: of money we're pumping in. That was a couple of months, 637 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 15: I think, before the financial collapse in September of two 638 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 15: thousand and eight, and that got people quite focused on 639 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 15: these wars about what we had to do. Everybody collectively 640 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 15: is pushing for the Trump agenda to work, particularly is 641 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 15: economic agenda, because that drives so much of this. But 642 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 15: we do have to come to a reality check here 643 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 15: that our financial situation is a massive national security issue. 644 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 15: And when people bring this up, they're not saying we're 645 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 15: not supportive. We're trying to say, hey, look, do not 646 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 15: forget this fact of this financial and we are still 647 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 15: in a financial crisis, even giving the what President Trump 648 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 15: investment have is getting traction to reverse the plague gears 649 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 15: of Biden in this financial situation, particularly the Pentagon increase 650 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 15: of up to one point five trillion, And like you said, 651 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 15: people are going to have to deliver here specifically, why 652 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 15: do we need this increase, Where's it going to come from? 653 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 15: Or we're going to cut these other programs which I 654 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 15: think are rife with corruption and fraud. Then let's do it. 655 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 15: But then let's have the stones to see it through. 656 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 15: Chip your thoughts. 657 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, Steve is exactly right. 658 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 18: If I might extend on something you said in the 659 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 18: segment as you're coming into to my joining about energy, okay, 660 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 18: and it's all related. 661 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 2: To give me one second on this. 662 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 18: So last year, you remember, now we're almost a year 663 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 18: removed from the Big Beautiful Bill debates. I was fighting 664 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 18: as hard as I could to drag that thing to 665 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 18: the fiscally responsible direction. 666 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 2: Remember it was in May that I joined. 667 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 18: With three Republican colleagues in the Freedom Caucus to stop 668 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 18: vote down. I voted against the Big Beautiful Bill. Now 669 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 18: I'm getting all sorts of heat from the President, the 670 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 18: White House, from Speaker Johnson, the Senate ship. 671 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 2: What are you doing? You're going to destroy this, We're 672 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 2: going to you know, you're going to ruin the tax cuts. 673 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 18: Say, guys, you're allowing Susan Collins and Lisa mccowske and 674 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 18: a bunch of the you know, squishes in the Senate 675 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 18: to take away the reforms we were putting in place 676 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 18: to be bysically responsible medicaid. But importantly, they were getting 677 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 18: rid of all of the stuff we were doing on 678 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 18: the green new scam subsidies. So we've bought and we 679 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 18: got about half of those green new scam substies put 680 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 18: back in fast forward. Now I'm running for attorney general 681 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 18: a pack in California. A bunch of leftists ran a 682 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 18: million dollars of ads against me in Texas saying they 683 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 18: quote want to end my career. Now, look, I'm going 684 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 18: to win this race for attorney general. But I have 685 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 18: news for them. My career is not ending whether I 686 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 18: win or lose. But I'm going to win because I'm 687 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 18: going to keep fighting these Marxists and these leftists no 688 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 18: matter what they want to take out our ability to 689 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 18: be able to have energy freedom and energy security, which 690 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 18: is at the center of this entire conflict. We've got 691 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:29,359 Speaker 18: to be fiscally responsible. We fought in the Big Beautiful Bill, 692 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 18: but as you and I agreed on this show a 693 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 18: year ago, it wasn't good enough. I supported it in 694 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 18: the end to be a team player, to work to 695 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,760 Speaker 18: get what we wanted to get done for the president, 696 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 18: but we should have gone further. 697 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 2: Now we need to do more. 698 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 18: Now we've got a bunch of more moderates who are 699 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 18: supporting this stupid Dignity Amnesty Act. Those same people are saying, oh, Chip, 700 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 18: we can't vote for more forms like, look, we got 701 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 18: to end the fraud than five months ago, everybody was 702 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 18: on fire about about Minnesota. Where are we talking about that? Now, 703 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 18: end the fraud, end the waste at the get the 704 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 18: reforms we need to get in place. 705 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 2: Come tell us what you need to build up in military. 706 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 18: We'll fund it, but it's got to be real tools 707 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 18: for real military dominance. And I don't want us to 708 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 18: be engaged in endless conflict. That's what next week is 709 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 18: going to be about, having an honest conversation. We want 710 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 18: to back the President's strategic games, but we're not gonna 711 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 18: let the swamp do what it always does and bankrupt 712 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 18: this country while we, you know, pretend that we're you know, 713 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 18: you know, doing something fiscally responsible, when we're in fact 714 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 18: making housing more expensive for higher interest rates, inflation going up, 715 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:31,800 Speaker 18: et cetera. 716 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 15: I'm glad you brought this up because I want to 717 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 15: go We're going to have rosemuy Jinks is going to 718 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,360 Speaker 15: join us in the second hour, which Chip is talking about. 719 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 15: A group of Republicans have put up in with Democrats 720 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 15: essentially an amnesty built. Like we don't have enough problems, 721 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,479 Speaker 15: they're going to join with Democrats and put an amacy build. 722 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,720 Speaker 15: We're going to get to that in a second, because 723 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 15: Laura ingram I thought did a good job last night 724 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 15: over at Fox of peeling Backwaller. But we're going to 725 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,879 Speaker 15: get to that Roch drinks going detail. But this gets 726 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 15: back to the green new scam part of it. You know, 727 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 15: to get Murkowski in these moderates, you got to go 728 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 15: and you got to offer this stuff. And the green 729 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 15: new scam stuff is still out there and President Trump 730 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 15: as a top priority, right, is that that stuff's got 731 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 15: to go to walk me through to get energy, you know, 732 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 15: to really get full spectrum energy dominance and get serious 733 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 15: about this now that it looks like more than ever 734 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 15: that we need to make sure that in the Western 735 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 15: hemisphere we're fully set here so we don't have to 736 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 15: worry about the Strait or her moves. That's really you know, 737 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 15: it's it's it's essentially Europe's problem. 738 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 14: We're there to help. What do you need to do? 739 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,359 Speaker 14: Still in the green new scam that's out there. 740 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 15: I thought all that stuff got taken out before the 741 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 15: big beautiful bill was voted on No last year a 742 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 15: year ago. 743 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 18: It was all of our reforms, to be clear, right, 744 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 18: we had these subsidies were put in place which were 745 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 18: destroying our incentive infrastructure for natural gas powered plans, for 746 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 18: our ability to move oil and gas products, because there 747 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 18: was so much money flowing into wind and solar, which 748 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 18: are inefficient and unreliable. So we were fighting to pull 749 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:11,799 Speaker 18: those subsidies back. Well, we had really good provisions in 750 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 18: there to pull back most of the subsidies, and the 751 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 18: squishes in the Senate, the Democrats pulled them all out. 752 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 18: That's what I stood up and I literally voted against 753 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 18: the big beautiful bill that weekend and took the scorn 754 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 18: from everybody, and we were able to get about half 755 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 18: of those back in. 756 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 2: You have to estimate it a bit. My view is 757 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 2: we need. 758 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 18: To plow forward and remove the remainder of those subsidies 759 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 18: to open up a full true competition. Look if wind 760 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 18: and solar can compete, great, but they're competing right now 761 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,879 Speaker 18: with crony capitalism, with the subsidies that are fueling them. 762 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 18: That undermines our ability to have a more reliable grid. 763 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 18: So that's one thing we need to do The second 764 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 18: thing we need to do is open up nuclear rapid fire. 765 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 18: We are taking way too long to move forward to 766 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:57,280 Speaker 18: get true nuclear moving and running again. That's actually good, solid, 767 00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 18: reliable power. The third thing we got to do is 768 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 18: deal with permitting, and you put all that stuff in 769 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:03,720 Speaker 18: the pot. If we can get the permitting on the NIPA, 770 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 18: the environmental protection guidelines and all of those things, we 771 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:08,920 Speaker 18: can actually move forward and be able to get the 772 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 18: true full independence of what we were. 773 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 2: Capable of doing in America. 774 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 18: If you've got nuclear power, and if you've got unsubsidized 775 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 18: wind and solar, fine use it where it's useful. And 776 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 18: if you've got true natural gas that we're pumping out 777 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 18: in Texas through fracking, then America is unstoppable. Well that's 778 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 18: what we've got to do. Don't follow the European model 779 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 18: where they're now reliant on the rest of the world. 780 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 18: And by the way, this is President's Trump. President Trump's 781 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 18: genius is going after the pressure points here and putting 782 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 18: pressure on Europe, China, Russia, everybody else has to step 783 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,360 Speaker 18: up and go figure it out. Instead of us carrying 784 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 18: the burden of keeping the straits open. That's all on 785 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 18: the back of the shale revolution in Texas. I was 786 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 18: in Midland yesterday. Those people will go produce the energy 787 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 18: we need it. We'll just free Texas up to do it. 788 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 14: Chip, I've said that, and we only got a couple months. 789 00:38:58,200 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 15: I got to hold you through the brake, right, So 790 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,080 Speaker 15: we've been saying that, Hey, the bigger fight we have 791 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,720 Speaker 15: is not in the Middle East, but here in this country. 792 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 15: And one of the biggest fights we have is in Texas. 793 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 15: We're going to Brandon Hall on a second. They're staying 794 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 15: up till two and three in the morning down in 795 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 15: Austin on the Texas Education Board because patriots are flooding 796 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 15: the zone down there and want to speak and want 797 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 15: to get in front of the microphone. But I'm going 798 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,319 Speaker 15: to get to the other part about your opponent after 799 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 15: the break. But right now, how can we be spending 800 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 15: days making sure that care doesn't influence Texas history is 801 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:36,400 Speaker 15: taught to Texas kids and textbooks. It sounds bizarro, but 802 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 15: we're in a fight and the vote's not. 803 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:39,439 Speaker 14: Even going to be till tomorrow. I don't think, sir. 804 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 18: Yeah, it's ridiculous. I mean, what's happened is is Texas 805 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,839 Speaker 18: is front and Center, the Muslim Brotherhood CARE and all 806 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 18: the organizations Amy mac and Rare have documented there's six 807 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,720 Speaker 18: hundred organizations. They're all funding this push of the Islamification 808 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 18: of Texas, the march of Islam across our state in 809 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 18: the country. And you can't win a war that you 810 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 18: don't acknowledge exists. And we cannot allow Islam to hide 811 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,360 Speaker 18: behind the First Amendment when in fact it is a 812 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 18: political ideology that is designed in its own language. And 813 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 18: then Muslim Brotherhood Memorandum for nineteen ninety one to wage 814 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:12,720 Speaker 18: jihad against the West. 815 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 2: We know this to be true. 816 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 18: We know that it's all been you know, flowing out 817 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,359 Speaker 18: in terms of the Holy Land Foundation twenty five years ago. 818 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 18: What CARE has been up to. I have new legislation 819 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 18: I'm going to introduce next week on CARE. I will 820 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 18: make sure you guys see it first. I can't announce 821 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,760 Speaker 18: it yet, but to go after them. I already introduced 822 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:30,720 Speaker 18: a bill to take away their tax status. I already 823 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 18: introduced the Pause Act build to you know, vent people 824 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 18: for Shree law. But Texas is behind the eight ball 825 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,839 Speaker 18: on this. We need to be much more aggressive. We're 826 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 18: trying to play catch up. The legislation that they've passed 827 00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 18: is fine, but we got to go much further because 828 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,439 Speaker 18: what you're seeing right now is they're using our own 829 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 18: rules against us to indoctrinate our kids. 830 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 14: Chip hangover one side, Chip boyd Dinner for ag in 831 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:56,760 Speaker 14: Texas Next in the world. 832 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 16: Use your host, Stephen k Back. 833 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 15: Conssman Chipp Roy who vened for Texas a g SO. Congressman. 834 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,440 Speaker 15: You used a phrase in the last segment. I can 835 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 15: tell I think it is resonating people. You can't win 836 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 15: a war you don't acknowledge exists. Uh, that's a pretty 837 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 15: good quote about framing about where we are. 838 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 14: So here's the question. 839 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 15: The state of Texas is the jewel in the crown, 840 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 15: and they know that our enemies in this enemies of 841 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 15: the United States of America and US as a constitutional republic, 842 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 15: fully understand that from its history, the mythology, the current 843 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,799 Speaker 15: you know, the current state of its economy, which is 844 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 15: what the sixth or seventh biggest in the world. How 845 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 15: it's a countervailing power to California in our own union, 846 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 15: particularly the way the way it's run and the way 847 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 15: it's governed. The question gets to be for folks, is 848 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 15: you know war room and others? Did it turn out 849 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 15: hundreds of patriots to go to Texas school board and 850 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 15: drive and take their time and money and go there 851 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:09,839 Speaker 15: to testify. And people are lost about care is being 852 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 15: designate a terrorist organization in the state Texas and in 853 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 15: Florida and in UAE and in Katar, right, And they're 854 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 15: kind of sitting there going why is it allowed to 855 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 15: be in Austin, Texas and not just be the organizer, 856 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 15: I mean to bring the speakers, to prep the speakers, 857 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 15: to hold a press conference outside that was ten times 858 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 15: more followed by the left wing media in Austin and 859 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 15: nationally than the Frank Gaffney press conference of the patriots. 860 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 14: So how can that happen? 861 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 15: And what are you prepared to do about it in 862 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 15: Texas to sort this problem out and to win this war? 863 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,839 Speaker 18: Yeah, First of all, we have been behind the curve 864 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 18: on this in my opinion, in Texas and have been 865 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 18: relatively sleep at the switch, allowing people to hide behind 866 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 18: as I said, I see a hide behind. 867 00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 2: The First Amendment. 868 00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 18: You and I are stalar defenders of the Bill of 869 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 18: right in the Constitution. We will fight that battle anytime, anywhere. 870 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 18: But this is a political ideology, and we have to 871 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 18: recognize that because we've got too many people today. I 872 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:13,280 Speaker 18: mean literally, in the conversations I'm having right now Steed 873 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 18: with leadership in Austin, with people around the state, they 874 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 18: always hedge when I say, wait a minute, we do 875 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 18: not want to see more moss being built. We do 876 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 18: not want to see taxpayer funding for these Islamic schools. 877 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:26,799 Speaker 18: We need to stop care. We need to do the 878 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 18: Office of Attorney General has extraordinary power to open up 879 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,399 Speaker 18: and look at the books of nonprofits and NGOs. As 880 00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 18: Attorney General, my first order of business will be to 881 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 18: assemble the team and go immediately on day one and 882 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 18: open up all these books, find where they have connections, 883 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:46,400 Speaker 18: connections to terrorist activities and terrorist groups, pull their charters, 884 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,400 Speaker 18: cut their funding, don't allow those funds to proceed to 885 00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 18: continue to do what they're doing. But the key element 886 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 18: to all of that is the using the bully pulpit 887 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:59,359 Speaker 18: and delivering the message and legally making the arguments that 888 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 18: this is not in fact something that is going to 889 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 18: be protectable as religion. But you got to recognize that 890 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 18: as a political movement designed to tear down our walls. 891 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 18: That goes back to my point, you can't win a 892 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:15,440 Speaker 18: ward that you don't acknowledge exists. People hide behind sharia. 893 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 18: I talk about Sharia too. There's a reason we named 894 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 18: it the Sharia Free America Caucus. 895 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 2: But it's not just Sharia. And this is an important point. 896 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 18: In the hearing I held as the chairman of the 897 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,920 Speaker 18: sub Committee on the Constitution, I made this point about Sharia, 898 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:34,359 Speaker 18: and my Democrat ranking member acknowledged almost immediately. She said, well, wait, 899 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 18: if you're talking about Sharia, that means all Muslims, that 900 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,799 Speaker 18: means everybody that's practicing Islam. And I let her make 901 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 18: that point. But the reality is Sharia is central to it. 902 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 18: All of this is inconsistent with the West, inconsistent with 903 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 18: our laws. If you don't acknowledge that, how can you win. 904 00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 18: And look, I'll give credit Governor Abbitt had said, look, 905 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 18: we got to stop these dollars flowing to these Islamic 906 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 18: schools through the you know, school choice programs. 907 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 2: That's exactly right. 908 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 18: As Attorney General, I'll defend that, but we got to 909 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 18: go further, and we've got to cut the head of 910 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 18: the stake off. We've got to stop care, pull the charter, 911 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 18: go after any of the elements of the Muslim brotherhood. 912 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 18: But as Amy Mackis pointed out, with rare, there's six 913 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:19,440 Speaker 18: hundred organizations, so care is front facing. They're calling me 914 00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 18: a terrorist, they're calling me a hater, all of those things, 915 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 18: and I don't care. And you know, I think you 916 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:27,160 Speaker 18: got to stand up and fight for this stuff. And 917 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 18: that's what I'm trying to do. 918 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 15: I hope if we make a recommendation. Amy meck is 919 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 15: a senior advisor to you as Attorney General. She is 920 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 15: really a rock star. And her efforts to bring just 921 00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,280 Speaker 15: a video and hear these people in their own. 922 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,959 Speaker 14: Voice, I think is such so powerful. Chip. 923 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 15: Where do people go to follow this more closely? Because 924 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 15: this is heating up now. AG's race I think will 925 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 15: be the even more intense than the Senate race. But 926 00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 15: where do people go to follow you, to find your 927 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 15: travel schedule, to see more and to be given questions 928 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:03,880 Speaker 15: and weigh and measure ship roi. 929 00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,439 Speaker 18: Chiproy dot com. The runoff is on May twenty six. 930 00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 18: I was going to make one point here. My opponent, 931 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 18: Mays Middleton, as a state senator last year, introduced a 932 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,279 Speaker 18: bill SB eight fifty four. That bill was designed to 933 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:18,280 Speaker 18: be something to promote religious liberty and help to developing 934 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 18: cities and entities push religious entities being able to develop 935 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:26,319 Speaker 18: these areas. But in doing so, it was going to 936 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 18: specifically promote the ability of mosques and Muslim oriented and 937 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 18: Islam centered entities to be able to sue local jurisdictions 938 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:36,920 Speaker 18: to stop them if they prohibited these moss from being 939 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 18: built and these Islamic cities like Epic City from being built. Now, 940 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,800 Speaker 18: my colleague, I don't know whether he did it intentionally 941 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:44,919 Speaker 18: or naive, but I know that he tried to dupe 942 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 18: people because he amended the language that was the description 943 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:49,880 Speaker 18: of the bill, but he didn't change the text of 944 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:51,840 Speaker 18: the bill as it moved through the Senate into the 945 00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,960 Speaker 18: Senate Calendar's committee. And the problem here is, Steve, you 946 00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 18: can't be naive and be the Attorney General of Texas. 947 00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:00,319 Speaker 18: You can't go up and do a nice sounding bill 948 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,399 Speaker 18: that's good for religious liberty and then ignore the fact 949 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 18: that you're going to give fuel to the Islamists who 950 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 18: want to remake Texas. 951 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 2: You got to have the smartest lawyers in the. 952 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 18: World working at the Office of Attorney General, and that 953 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:12,479 Speaker 18: starts at the top. 954 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 2: And I've been a prosecutor. 955 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 18: I've been a lawyer, I've been in court, I have 956 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 18: led the office under Ken Baxton. 957 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 2: My opponent has done none of those things. 958 00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,359 Speaker 18: There's no room for on the job training, and so 959 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 18: this is an important issue people need to pay attention to. 960 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,399 Speaker 18: The federal has broke this story yesterday. It's a really 961 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:32,080 Speaker 18: important glimpse into what a naive attorney general could do 962 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 18: to the state of Texas. 963 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,480 Speaker 2: That's why need everybody to turn out. Made twenty thixs. 964 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 14: Was that bill. Has that bill been killed? Those aspects 965 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 14: of that bill been killed. 966 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 18: So that bill got to the calendars, they pushed it 967 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 18: out of committee, got it to the floor. It did 968 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 18: stop and didn't get signed into law, thank god. But 969 00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 18: my opponent should have known better, and again he tried 970 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:55,320 Speaker 18: to dupe people by changing the description but not changing 971 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 18: the bill. He should have pulled the bill and he 972 00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:59,239 Speaker 18: should have ended it. But he was trying to hide 973 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 18: behind religious liberty and not acknowledge that he was going 974 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,759 Speaker 18: to give power to epic city and to those trying 975 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 18: to create Islamic cities. We've got to rethink how we 976 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,000 Speaker 18: deal with all of this because in the for example, 977 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 18: you have prayer time in schools. 978 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 2: Muslims are now. 979 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:14,759 Speaker 18: Going to use that to take over our schools and 980 00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 18: be gone five times a day for prayer on their 981 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 18: prayer rugs pointing to Mecca. 982 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:19,920 Speaker 2: We cannot do that. 983 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,160 Speaker 18: It's going to destroy our today of Christian culture and 984 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 18: our Christian nation. 985 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 15: This fight is I'm telling you, there's a real fight 986 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 15: in Texas. Think about that for a second. In the 987 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 15: great state of Texas, we've got to fight.
