Any 29 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: further conditions on the ground can impact op Let's get 30 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: a quick check on the forecast dealing with the region Georgias. 31 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 1: Now is Adrian Hernandez. You've got a specific forecast for 32 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: the Middle East, for our Rand and the surrounding areas 33 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 1: this morning. 34 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 6: Yeah, Brian Glenn, early on this morning. Out in the 35 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 6: Middle East, things are looking actually relatively quiet. You know, 36 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 6: over the last twelve hours we've dealt with some cloud coverage, 37 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 6: but at the very least our troops aren't going to 38 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 6: have to be dealing with any rainfall of any capacity 39 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 6: because things are staying relatively dry. 40 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: Temperature is wise. 41 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 6: We're gonna be anywhere from high fifties a little bit 42 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 6: up higher in elevation, and then the low sixties out 43 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 6: in places like Bagdad and then looking ahead in the forecast, again, 44 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 6: a lot of this is going to be up for 45 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 6: grabs here, but we do have some precipitation or really 46 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 6: some cloud coverage coming back. It is only reflectivity we're 47 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 6: seeing on the forecast here or forecast modeling. 48 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 7: Excuse me. 49 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 6: So this could just be cloud coverage, it could be 50 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 6: just a little bit of rainfall. But regardless, it's not 51 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 6: going to be anything too out of this world. We're 52 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 6: not looking at a washout condition. We're not looking at heavy, 53 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 6: heavy snow anywhere across the Middle East. Just potentially more 54 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 6: cloud coverage for our troops to potentially deal with out there. 55 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 6: But now across the lower forty eight, we're gonna bring 56 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 6: you back here. Tick you out to Kendall, Florida. This 57 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 6: is a look on Sunday. We had some really really 58 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 6: stormy conditions down in southern Florida. We also had wide 59 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 6: out conditions out in Iowa City, Iowa, on Sunday. We're 60 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 6: still going to be tracking the remnants of that system 61 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 6: as it continues to move eastward. Looking at the Ohio Valley, 62 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 6: we got lower temperatures. We are potentially seeing some snowfall 63 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 6: in this region, and then some really really warm southern temperatures, 64 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 6: with temperatures potentially getting up to the nineties out in Phoenix, 65 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 6: and of course was some warmer temperatures down south with 66 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 6: some moisture added on to that. 67 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 8: We'll have a severe weather outlook. 68 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 6: We'll have a large hail threat for portions of Oklahoma City, 69 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 6: and then going into Wednesday, that risk will start to increase. 70 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 6: We'll have a slight risk for Dallas, and the main 71 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 6: threats will be large hail and some damaging wind. So, Brian, 72 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 6: that's a better look at what's going on across the 73 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 6: lower forty eight. Elsewhere, though, things are gonna be looking 74 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 6: relatively calm. 75 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: Back to you, all right, Adrian, I appreciate it. We'll 76 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: see you back on American Sunrise here soon. Thank you. 77 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: You got it all right. Now to our top story. 78 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: This is day three of a widening war operation Epic Fear, 79 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: expanding the US and Israeli forces striking more than two 80 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: thousand targets targets around Iran. Since Saturday, the Supreme Leader 81 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 1: eliminated top commanders gone Iran's retaliating targets, US bases and 82 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,919 Speaker 1: allied nations across the region. Three American service members have 83 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: been killed several others wounded. The conflict now spreads beyond 84 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: Iran's borders, with Hesba law and Iran backed militias joining 85 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: US now, as President Trump saying that the strikes were 86 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: necessary to end Iran's threat and calling on the Iranian 87 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: people to seize what they've called their hour of freedom. 88 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 3: Take a listen, hey, to the great, proud people of Iran. 89 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,359 Speaker 3: I say tonight that the hour of your freedom is 90 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 3: at hand. Stay sheltered, don't leave your home. It's very 91 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 3: dangerous outside. Bombs will be dropping everywhere. When we are finished, 92 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 3: take over your government, it will be yours take This 93 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:05,799 Speaker 3: will be probably your only chance for generations. 94 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: All right? Joining us now is geopolitical analyst Brandon Weikert, 95 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: senior editor at nineteen forty five dot com. Brandon, as 96 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: far as this war enters day three, what's our impression 97 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: of it so far? 98 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 4: Well, it's definitely been relatively effective for the United States 99 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 4: in the sense that we have been able to hit targets. 100 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 4: The Israelis have been able to hit targets within Iran. 101 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 4: We've gotten the Ayatola, as you noted at the top 102 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 4: of the hour, but we haven't gotten the kill shot 103 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 4: in and I don't think we're going to. In fact, 104 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 4: the real news that's not being talked about here is 105 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 4: before the war began on Saturday. Last Saturday, the Pentagon 106 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,559 Speaker 4: assess that we had roughly eight days of armaments for 107 00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 4: in the Sentcom Area of Responsibility AOAR. We have gone 108 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 4: through now, as you note, three days of those eight 109 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 4: days worth, which means next week, next Sunday or Monday. 110 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:13,479 Speaker 4: If this tempo continues, the Sentcom aoar's stockpiles will be 111 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 4: depleted of critical interceptors and land attack missiles the Tomahawks, 112 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 4: which means if we want to continue the war, if 113 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 4: the Iranians don't surrender, and I don't think they're going to, 114 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 4: then we're going to have to pull critical stockpiles out 115 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 4: of the Indo pey Com Area of Responsibility, leaving our 116 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 4: troops and our allies in Asia completely vulnerable to any 117 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 4: kind of Chinese intervention. Therefore, this war, I think is 118 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 4: not going to end well for the United States if 119 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 4: we don't get a conclusion within the week to the conflict. 120 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 4: And I don't see any conclusion on the horizon. 121 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting when we all got the notifications 122 00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 1: on Saturday morning early that US floor has struck ran 123 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: and we were engaging in this battle along with Israel. 124 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: I had to go back and think about, well, what 125 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: was said in the State of the Union, what has 126 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: been the messaging from this administration prior to that point. 127 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: And we were all under the assumption that we were 128 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: still negotiating and that there was still an option. But 129 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: now we find out that this had been planned for months, 130 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: that they were going to do that. I don't think 131 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: they ever had plans to finalize their negotiations. I thought 132 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: they knew from day one they were going to make 133 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: a strike, well on a run. 134 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 4: And this is what I've been saying every time I'm 135 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 4: on your show. When the issue of negotiations came up, 136 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 4: I said it was a ruse. This is exactly what 137 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 4: the Trump administration did last year in the run up 138 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 4: to the Twelve Day war. Is they promised that, hey, 139 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 4: we're going to go and get negotiations, and then at 140 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 4: the last minute, the Israelis and the United States then 141 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 4: went on the offensive. I think it's important nderstand how 142 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 4: we got Iyatola Kamani. You know, I'm not a fan 143 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 4: of this regime. Happy to see the Kamani and the 144 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 4: regime go away. But how we got here was we 145 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 4: told Kamani right before we clipped him that we're going 146 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 4: to sign a temporary cease fire and continue negotiations on 147 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 4: March first. And then the Iatola, who was hiding out 148 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 4: in his bunker, said okay, fine, we're going to do that, 149 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 4: and then he revealed himself coming out of the bunker. 150 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 4: We knew he was there, and we were able to 151 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 4: kill him that way. So we've been using diplomacy as 152 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 4: a canard to allow for us to target the regime's 153 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 4: key leadership. But that's going to have very deep impacts, 154 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 4: Brian on our diplomacy and the rest of the world. 155 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 4: Who could possibly trust the United States or at least 156 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 4: the Trump administration when they say, hey, we want to 157 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 4: go make a deal mister Kim jungun or mister Putin 158 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 4: or mister g and then suddenly, looking back at the 159 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 4: recent history, these leaders realized, wait, if we go make 160 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 4: a deal with these guys, they might try to blow 161 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 4: us up. This is not good for American honor or 162 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 4: for America's diplomatic strategy globally. 163 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: It is sometimes branded it's really hard to figure out 164 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: when you see videos online or these massive crowds on 165 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: the streets in Iran, are that that are celebrating, You 166 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 1: don't know if they're celebrating the death of their leader 167 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: or they're they're angry. And I sent a video to 168 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: a very good friend of mine that grew up in Iran, 169 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: sent him the video and said, what are they saying? 170 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: He said, Man, they're still chatting death to America. They're 171 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: upset that their leader was killed. What's some of the 172 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,479 Speaker 1: feedback that you're seeing online as well? Are the Iranian 173 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: people are they happy this guy has gone? Or are 174 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: we being misled and they're actually upset. 175 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 4: Iran is a country of almost one hundred million people. 176 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 4: It's a multi ethnic and multicultural society. It's actually a 177 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 4: lot like the United States in that way. Some people 178 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 4: are happy Kamani's dead, many others are not. A lot 179 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 4: of the people, no matter who they are, what their 180 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 4: politics are, in Iran, are very upset that we're bombing them. 181 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 4: And in fact, many of them are probably wondering, Okay, 182 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 4: you got Kamani. Why hasn't this ended yet? And so 183 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 4: I would not put my money on the idea that 184 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 4: the Iranian people are just gonna overthrow these leaders. The IRGC, 185 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 4: the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, took operational control over the 186 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 4: country last summer during the Twelve Day War. The Iyahtola 187 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 4: was a figurehead. Killing him made us feel good. It 188 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 4: was cathartic release after forty plus years of hostility. But 189 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 4: it doesn't actually end the conflict or weaken the regime. 190 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 4: And that's another thing. The regime has not been weakened. 191 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 4: It has been degraded, but the leadership remains in place, 192 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 4: the key leaders and the people who've been killed, they've 193 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 4: been replaced with even in some cases, deadlier, more ambitious, 194 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 4: bolder people. So this is not having the intended effect 195 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 4: the Trump administration's policies here, which leads me to the 196 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 4: last point I want to make here before we go 197 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 4: on to the next thing, which is the mismatch of objectives. 198 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 4: We have three objectives regime change. We're getting rid of 199 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,839 Speaker 4: the nuclear weapons and getting rid of Iran's ballistic missile threat. 200 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 4: Iran's regime has one objective survival, and they know that 201 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 4: by next Sunday, next Monday, our arsenal in the region 202 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 4: is depleted. And then we're scrambling trying to figure out 203 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 4: how we're going to continue the war. We are not 204 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 4: going to achieve right now at least two out of 205 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 4: those three objectives. We might get them to reduce the 206 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 4: nuclear weapons issue, which is what they were promising to 207 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 4: do already, but getting rid of that regime so far 208 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 4: is not happening, and getting rid of those ballistic missiles 209 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 4: will never happen now because the Iranians can't. Meanwhile, the 210 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 4: Iranians win just by hanging on. 211 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, Bradon, Let's get to the reaction of MAGA that 212 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: we've seen online, and it's it is very mixed. You know. 213 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 1: We know that on the campaign it was promised no 214 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: new wars, no regime change. But also President Trump has 215 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: always emphasized that they cannot have a nuclear weapon. That's 216 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: been pressed from really the very beginning in twenty sixteen 217 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: when he ran. What have you seen the reaction? What's 218 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: the overall consensus from MAGA about this escalation. 219 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 4: Well, there's always a core contingent of MAGA that will 220 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 4: that loves what Trump does, no matter what he does, 221 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 4: no matter what if it's a reversal or what the 222 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 4: trust the plan crowd, but that is an incredibly shrinking 223 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 4: group of MAGA supporters the rest of us. And I 224 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 4: was an og MAGA guy in twenty fifteen when he 225 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 4: came down. I organized the scholars and writers for Trump 226 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 4: letter back then. So I know I have a very 227 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 4: good pulse on MAGA, and most of the MAGA people 228 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 4: I know are confused and confounded. Why is he doing this? 229 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 4: This was unnecessary? You know, I was on Bannon's show 230 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 4: yesterday and Eric Prince was on before me, so I 231 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 4: got to hear some of his comments, and Eric Prince, 232 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 4: who's one of the leading supporters of Trump, said what 233 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 4: I've been feeling and many MAGA people feeling, why did 234 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 4: we do this now? There was absolutely no reason to 235 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 4: initiate this now. And now you know, as Colon Powell 236 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 4: told George W. Bush before the Iraq invasion, you break it, 237 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 4: you own it. And this notion that, well, don't worry, 238 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 4: there's no ground troops doesn't matter. We're owning it. This 239 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 4: is Trump's mess now, and he doesn't have a way 240 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 4: to clean it up, and this really could blow back 241 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 4: on him in many different ways, and it may weaken 242 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 4: MAGA even more. 243 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: Well, think about this for a second, Brandon, I know 244 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: we got to wrap up We're just months away from 245 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: really kicking getting into the campaign season for the midterms. 246 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,440 Speaker 1: If this was to get even messier, that could turn 247 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: off a lot of voters. They simply would not come 248 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: out and vote. That is a fact. 249 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 4: I think that's already going to happen. I've already priced 250 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 4: in the idea that we are going to see a 251 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 4: Democrats sweep in November, which means they're going to try 252 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 4: to impeach Trump and everybody around him. And at this 253 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 4: time they are claiming that there might be some kind 254 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 4: of violations of the Constitution. So their impeachment could very 255 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 4: well hold muster here, especially if the Republicans don't have 256 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 4: the numbers in Congress to stop it. 257 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, Brandon, thank you so much. I appreciate I how 258 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: you put in some long hours. Thanks for getting up 259 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: this morning with us.

Thanks so much for having us. 267 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: Good to have you on with us this morning. We're 268 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: tracking the White House, We're tracking the markets in the 269 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: latest in the Middle East, So join the conversation on 270 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: Getter YouTube and rumble. Now to the markets. Wall Street 271 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: is about to react to the events in the Middle East. 272 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: Let's go straight to the business and market analysts. Seth DNS. Seth, 273 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: good morning. What should investors expect as we head towards 274 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: a very interesting Monday morning opening? Bell? 275 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 10: Yeah, Brian, this is not uncommon when you see geopolitical 276 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 10: unrest for markets, especially going into a weekend and leading 277 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 10: into a Monday market open, for there to be a 278 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 10: large market sell off. Now, the question really is, and 279 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 10: I think we'll know this by we'll call it ten 280 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 10: o'clock this morning, as to whether or not this sell 281 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 10: off is going to be a continuous process throughout the. 282 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: Day or was this. 283 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 10: Investors institutional investors repositioning their cash capabilities to invest in 284 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 10: different stocks. Right, we saw over the weekend and in 285 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 10: early morning kind of pre market trades oil and gas 286 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 10: defence stocks, some of those starting to climb. So the 287 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 10: sell off that we saw over the weekend in and 288 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 10: effectively pre markets, this really could be a repositioning of 289 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 10: cash as the market becomes slick cyclical. Now, one thing 290 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 10: I will point out, we saw that the ten year 291 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 10: Treasury dropped below four percent on the yield. That's a 292 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 10: big development because ultimately that means that could have positive 293 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 10: impact on mortgage prices and other things. 294 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 8: But I think right. 295 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 10: Now markets will be in a reactionary mode to get 296 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 10: cash on the sidelines, ready to deploy, depending on how 297 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 10: long this whole series of events lasts. 298 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: Now, when you got the notification seth on Saturday that 299 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: this whole war and exactly what it is started, what 300 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: was your initial reaction as far as long term? Because 301 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: I look at the momentum that we've had with the 302 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 1: economy when we talk about inflation, the rate coming down, 303 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: and the foodability. You know that now things have really subsided. 304 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: Now that we're entering an esculator with Aran, how much 305 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 1: would this set us back as far as something if 306 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,479 Speaker 1: something really was to get messy in this escalation, how 307 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: much of effect that would have on the market in 308 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: our economy? Like pump the price of gas. You know 309 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: it's way down, but are we looking at a spike 310 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 1: going into summertime? Yeah? 311 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 10: You know, Brian, there's a couple of things to consider here, 312 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 10: and of course my reaction was multifaceted, right as a first, 313 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 10: as a human looking at any type of conflict, it's 314 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 10: painful to see, but recognizing too that national security is 315 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 10: a must. All of that to say, I think that 316 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 10: there are a couple of key things that you think about. 317 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 10: One is your long term trajectory kind of shifts a 318 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 10: little bit. Instead of thinking by three six twelve months, 319 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 10: you kind of go into a three six twelve days 320 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 10: and you start to think about what is going to 321 00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:00,719 Speaker 10: be the immediate reaction on currency exchanges? What does this 322 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 10: do to the next FED meeting? My senses is that 323 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 10: if you were thinking that the FED is going to 324 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 10: cut rates in the next meeting, probably not going to 325 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 10: happen now, just because a lot of this is going 326 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 10: to have to stabilize out. So I think it changes 327 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 10: the reactionary window of your mind when you're thinking about 328 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,640 Speaker 10: your money in the markets. Because there's so much uncertainty, 329 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 10: you can get yourself bogged down in trying to overthink 330 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 10: the things you can't control. 331 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: Beth Benson, thank you so much for joining us. I 332 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 1: know you'll have a quick you'll have a sharp eye 333 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 1: on that bill when it opens up a little bit 334 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: later this morning. Thanks Brian, Thank you all right, Now, 335 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,959 Speaker 1: a quick word from one of our sponsors.

Thinks you're with us this morning. 365 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: We want you to be a part of the conversations. 366 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 1: Is join us on Getter, YouTube and rumble. All right. 367 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: As the situation in Iran continues to unfold, the bigger 368 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,239 Speaker 1: question now is what comes next? Joining us now as 369 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: former assistant, there's a Secretary of State Bobby Charles, Bobby, 370 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 1: good morning, Good morning, all right, So what does success 371 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: look like from here on out? You know, I think 372 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: it's important to give a little bit of historical context here. 373 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 1: This will be described as some sort of a hegemonic act. 374 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: But I will tell you this is a cry from 375 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: within Iran, and there has been there have been cries 376 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: from within Iran many times before. This is the first 377 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: time it has actually been answered by the United States 378 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: and by those that are hearing the cries of literally 379 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 1: millions of people ninety one ninety three million people in 380 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 1: Iran who are saying. 381 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 8: We're done with this theocratic tyranny. 382 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 11: And so the first thing I'll just note is this 383 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 11: is us responding to an internal outcry. Just within the 384 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 11: last four or five weeks, they've killed thirty or forty 385 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 11: thousand of their own people. These people are sick and 386 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 11: tired of being crushed. So second big point is I 387 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 11: think this is really ultimately the end of the era 388 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 11: Anian theological tyranny. I don't see how they survive this. 389 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 11: The next thing I would expect is the IRGC, which 390 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 11: is their revolutionary guard, to probably split from within. The 391 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 11: minute that happens, everything changes inside that country. And I'll 392 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 11: also add a couple of simple points. One is we 393 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 11: are using technology I think that we have had for 394 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 11: a long time but have not used before. I will 395 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 11: also note that I think Russia and China will stay 396 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 11: out of this. They will be most concerned because they 397 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,640 Speaker 11: need to be about any internal uprising that this gives 398 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 11: rise to in their own worlds. So I think they're 399 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 11: going to be concerned internally, and that really leads to 400 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 11: the last point, which is that we probably need to 401 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 11: be internally concerned because there are always sleeper cells and 402 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 11: we need to be aware of the potential for internal 403 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:44,640 Speaker 11: disruptions here. 404 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: What do you think that a realistic timeline on for 405 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 1: the Iranian people to develop a new leadership, because I've 406 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: always heard that the existing leadership, or what was the 407 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: existing leadership, was rather deep, and so taking out one 408 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: or two leaders or even forty or fifty may not 409 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: completely get rid of the ideological approach to their government's 410 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: Yeah they. 411 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 11: Are a yeah, so this is a radical Islamic state. 412 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 11: They are unique in their radical and also in their 413 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 11: military capabilities to support their radical ideology. You could argue 414 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 11: that this is going to be a series of one, two, three, four, five, 415 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,640 Speaker 11: six as they get taken out one by one, which 416 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 11: I think would happen, but I don't think that's really 417 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 11: what's a foot. I think what's a foot is a 418 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 11: big strategic change. 419 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 8: We have not seen this in irns. 420 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 11: This is as big a strategic moment I think as 421 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 11: nineteen seventy nine was, which brought these folks to power 422 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 11: in many ways. It has the potential. It does have 423 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 11: the potential to spin out of control. You could see 424 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 11: extended conflict where they basically lose their minds and shoot 425 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:59,360 Speaker 11: missiles everywhere. They have basically mid range and short range missiles, 426 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 11: for which we and the Israelis have a lot of 427 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 11: defenses and the Europeans have some. They do not have 428 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 11: a long range missile, so their missiles are not going 429 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 11: to hit the United States. But I think they could 430 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 11: try to play this out as long as possible to survive. 431 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 8: I don't think that's gonna happen. 432 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 11: I think at the end of the day, or let's 433 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 11: just put it this way, in the final analysis, the 434 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 11: strategic change is really what's afoot and you can change 435 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 11: the deck chairs on the Titanic. But the big event 436 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 11: I think is occurring now. 437 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: I think probably what people are asking at home as 438 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 1: they watch this play out, are we finally done with 439 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: the narrative that Iran has nuclear weapons or they're two 440 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: weeks away from having a nuclear weapon, and that we 441 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: seem to be kind of baited into this conversation so 442 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: many times. After this we finally say we are done 443 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: with this terrorism state of Iran. 444 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 11: I believe that we are on the cusp of that, 445 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 11: and I credit Donald Trump for having had the ten 446 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 11: the courage, the foresight, and the strategic thinking to first 447 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 11: hit the nuclear site and essentially disable it, if not 448 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 11: indefinitely for a long time. And now to respond to 449 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 11: the Iranian people, who, by the way, were supported in 450 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 11: all the European capitals, Canadian capital, here in the United States, 451 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 11: there were big protests in support of them. What's happening, Brian, 452 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 11: is that their desire, their wish, their craving for freedom, 453 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 11: where they have finally said that death itself is not 454 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,400 Speaker 11: a big enough to turrent for them to prevent them 455 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 11: from seeking their freedom. That cry for freedom has been 456 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 11: heard around the world, and really it was heard by 457 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 11: Donald Trump moremediately than almost anyone else. I think he said, 458 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 11: you know what we need to be done with this 459 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,719 Speaker 11: state sponsor of terror who has been pushing for nuclear weapons, 460 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 11: has been pushing, by the way, for long range missiles. 461 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 11: We need to knock them out now and not have 462 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 11: the world be terrorized in the future, and I think 463 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 11: it was brilliant. 464 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, definitely a strategic move. Let's talk about you 465 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 1: mentioned before some sleeper cells here that could potentially cause 466 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: harm to US citizens on the ground. Here. There was, 467 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: you know, obviously a mass shooting in Austin the other night. 468 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 1: Suspect had paraphernalia wearing a shirt basically with a Ratian 469 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: flag on it and property of a lot. I believe 470 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 1: that's what it said. What's your thoughts on potential sleeper 471 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: cells popping up here in the near future. 472 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,719 Speaker 11: Yeah, so we have There's no question there are sleeper 473 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 11: cells in this hemisphere, and they are tied to Hesbalah 474 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 11: and formerly Hamas and some of the other terrorist groups. 475 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 11: I would say that, you know, we need to keep 476 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 11: our heads about us. These are not likely. They're going 477 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 11: to be watching the news just the way everybody else is, 478 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 11: and they are going to see that for whatever, you know, impulse. 479 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 11: They have to react that Iran is actually probably on 480 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 11: its way down, and so that will probably deter some 481 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 11: of them. The other thing I would say, and I'm 482 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 11: running for governor, them up by double digits ahead of 483 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,400 Speaker 11: the entire field, but I will tell you right now. Governors, 484 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 11: I think should be prepared for looking ahead. That means 485 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 11: obviously state law enforcement. That means interactions with federal law enforcement, 486 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 11: intelligence sharing, regional information sharing, and being prepared if any 487 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 11: event does occur. That event in Texas was I think 488 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 11: kind of a harbinger. I think we need to be 489 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 11: prepared for the possibility that we could get more. 490 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:27,679 Speaker 8: But I also think that we are prepared. 491 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 11: I mean, law enforcement has long been prepared for this, 492 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 11: National Guard is prepared, the military is prepared, and I 493 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,479 Speaker 11: think what I would like to believe is that saner 494 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 11: heads prevail and if you see something, you say something, 495 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 11: and at the end of the day we end up 496 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 11: in a much safer position than we've ever been before 497 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 11: because the Iranian nuclear threat disappears. 498 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. And the local police there responded in 499 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: about I think under a minute. They were there on 500 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 1: the scene.

And Brian, I'm sure you probably 596 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 7: know this area. Most people who've been to Austin know 597 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 7: the Sixth Street area. It's it's an area, you know, 598 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 7: like any college town that's got lots of bars and 599 00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 7: restaurants and that kind of thing. It's where many of 600 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 7: the kids from ut Austin and the University of Texas, 601 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 7: as folks in Texas. 602 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: Called it, go to hang out. 603 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 7: I'm just sad that this sort of thing happens, and 604 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 7: the fact that it happened on the heels of the 605 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 7: attack on Iran, obviously, he's going to raise even more 606 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 7: questions about potential cells that might be here in the 607 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 7: United States. 608 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, my youngest son that goes to Texas Tech sent 609 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: me a message last night, this writer Harrington. He's a 610 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: student there in the Austin area. It was a kind 611 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 1: of a memorial. The barstool Longhorn put out was one 612 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 1: of the victims there the other night, and my son said, Dad, 613 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: and we were just there a couple months ago. That 614 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: very club, and that club, or it's more of a 615 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: bar sports spark type, is one of the nicer sections 616 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: of Sixth Street. There lots of police activity is always 617 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 1: there at night, just for the safety of everyone. And 618 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 1: I will say this. They did respond to this shooting 619 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 1: in about a minute. If I'm not mistaken, it's like 620 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: fifty four seconds. They actually responded. So, Terrence, this is 621 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: the world we live in now, and since we've had 622 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 1: this wide open border. Now obviously this was naturalized married 623 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 1: a US citizen, but you can only imagine how many 624 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 1: more of these radical Islamic terraces that's backspace of what 625 00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: it is, are among us.

Watch what's around you, 632 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 7: Watch who's around you. Make a plan when you walk 633 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 7: in any place, make a plan on how to exit. 634 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: That's just what it is. 635 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 7: That's just what you have to do in this day 636 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 7: and age, particularly in this current environment. All right, Brian, 637 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 7: before I let you go, it is Monday morning, or 638 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 7: before you let me go, because this is your show, 639 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 7: my bad, it's Monday morning, and the question for you 640 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 7: would be, you know where the videos and the transcripts 641 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 7: of Bill and Hillary Clinton's depositions as part of the 642 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 7: Jeffrey Epps investigation, the answer is probably no. House Oversight 643 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 7: Committee Chairman James Comer says the closed door testimony from 644 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 7: Thursday and Friday will be released as soon as the 645 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 7: Clinton's and their lawyers approve it. In the meantime, Congressman 646 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,760 Speaker 7: Comber is out with his own details about the former 647 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 7: president's six hour deposition on Friday. Clinton testified under oath 648 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 7: that he saw nothing and did nothing wrong when he 649 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 7: associated with Epstein decades ago. Committee members also say that 650 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 7: Clinton testified he never saw anything to make him think 651 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,760 Speaker 7: President Trump was involved with Epstein. With all that said, 652 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 7: we are hoping that the video recordings and the transcripts 653 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,760 Speaker 7: of both interviews will be released as soon as today 654 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 7: so that you can. 655 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: Hear the interviews for yourself. 656 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 7: Brian, I'm hopeful, not necessarily optimistic, but I'm hopeful those 657 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:49,880 Speaker 7: videos will come out sooner than later. 658 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: I agree. I agree, and it's nice to sit hear 659 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: former President Bill Clinton kind of telling it during that 660 00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 1: deposition that President Trump had nothing to do with that, 661 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,760 Speaker 1: and the women that have come forward has said President 662 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: Trump has had nothing to do with that, So it's 663 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: kind of nice to hear a little bit of a 664 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: backup on that.

What's the latest on this War 670 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: Powers vote as expected to take place sometime this week. 671 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 12: Yeah, it's going to be very interesting because both Speaker 672 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 12: Mike Johnson and Majority Leader John Thuhne, both Republicans, have 673 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 12: given constitutional air cover to the president with statements that 674 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:57,840 Speaker 12: they put out Saturday morning where they asserted that Congress 675 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 12: had been notified and that the administration was fulfilling its 676 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 12: obligations to notify Congress. And so, you know, the War 677 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 12: Powers Act, you know it's there, it's on the books, 678 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 12: it was passed over President Nixon's veto every president Republican 679 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 12: Democrat has asserted that the War Powers Act is unconstitutional 680 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 12: pretty much because of the back end of the War 681 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:29,319 Speaker 12: Powers Act, where after sixty days or a thirty day extension, 682 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 12: the president has an obligation to pull those troops out. 683 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 12: And so presidents have asserted that you just can't pass 684 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 12: a law telling me that I have to pull troops out. 685 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 12: And it also signals an enemy. Hey, if we hang 686 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,359 Speaker 12: out for ninety days, we're good to go. So you know, 687 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 12: every president has said, including Trump, that the War Powers 688 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 12: Act is not constitutional. However, it is interesting that Rubio, 689 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,479 Speaker 12: the Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, he went to Capitol Hill, 690 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 12: he gave notification to Congress, let people know at least 691 00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 12: the senior leadership. And so we'll see how it plays out. 692 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 12: My look at it now, I'm not an attorney. My 693 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 12: look at it is that even though they haven't accepted 694 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 12: the War Powers Act as legitimate, the White House has 695 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,439 Speaker 12: fulfilled its obligations. 696 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 1: Brian. Yeah, it's always a fine line that they have 697 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: to walk, because you know, if they were to go 698 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 1: and make a full pitch for a war, it gets 699 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: public members if on both sides of the aisle come 700 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 1: together the leak information, why would you want to give 701 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: our enemy any kind of heads up of what we 702 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: could do. I've always thought this whole War Powers thing 703 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:44,120 Speaker 1: was a little I think it compromised national security. To 704 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: be honest with you, But I do think a lot 705 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 1: of the members wanted more, you know, kind of explanation 706 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,919 Speaker 1: why they're doing this, to explain it to them, why 707 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:55,280 Speaker 1: this would be possible. 708 00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 12: Yeah, well, you know the contantutionally, right, we think of 709 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:04,800 Speaker 12: it in three branches, but I think of it as four. 710 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 12: If you consider your House, Senate, Supreme Court, President, the 711 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 12: Supreme Court, and the Senate. 712 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,479 Speaker 8: Their real only power is. 713 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 12: To say no, whereas the initiative can be at the 714 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,840 Speaker 12: House or the President. And so it's like, but the 715 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 12: House has all the great powers taxing, spending, and war, 716 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 12: and so obviously members of Congress in the House they 717 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 12: want to preserve those prerogatives and they expect someone to 718 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,879 Speaker 12: talk to them. I think the White House has gone 719 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 12: out of its way to do that. It's not like 720 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 12: they you know, it wasn't a complete surprise. And it 721 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 12: was also interesting that the Board of Peace was here right. 722 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 8: Before this attack. 723 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 12: So I'm assuming that all of those people who attended 724 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 12: the Board of Peace, all those world leaders, they were 725 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 12: briefed in that something was going to happen. And I 726 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:57,800 Speaker 12: was saying before that the final tell that the attack 727 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 12: was intimate was going to be the Ussgerald R. 728 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 5: Ford being on station. 729 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 12: It turns out that the final piece before the attack 730 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 12: was launched was that General Dan Raisin Kane fired the 731 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 12: director of his staff, EVERL. Clatcher, And so apparently there 732 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:19,760 Speaker 12: was some internal uh internal squabbles or for whatever reason, 733 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 12: but to fire a three star admiral the day before 734 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 12: an attack that seems significant to me. And it turns 735 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 12: out that was the final piece before the attacks went forward. 736 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,919 Speaker 1: Brian, Yeah, Noil, you're obviously at the White House right now. 737 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 1: What was the security like for you coming up to 738 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,920 Speaker 1: the complex there in and around the White House? And 739 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 1: maybe he passed by the Capitol this morning with this 740 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:49,879 Speaker 1: enhanced security. Do you did you notice anything different today? Uh? 741 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:53,319 Speaker 12: No, But I will say that that fencing that was 742 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:57,320 Speaker 12: put up before the State, before the State of the Union, 743 00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,160 Speaker 12: you know that that fencing is still that that or 744 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 12: J six fencing, I think that's what you call it. 745 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 8: You know that's still up. 746 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 12: You know, Lafayette Park has been closed for renovations, so 747 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 12: that's not going to be open soon. But tourists we're 748 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:14,880 Speaker 12: here Saturday walking around and you know the gates that 749 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 12: you walk through with the initial perimeter, it's the same 750 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 12: as before. You know, Saturday, I did notice a lot 751 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 12: more police action and a lot more police presence in 752 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 12: the city. 753 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 5: I'm not really detecting that now. 754 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:29,439 Speaker 1: I think that people. 755 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,320 Speaker 12: I guess what you'd say, Brian, is that there was 756 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,439 Speaker 12: already serious security and they think it's good enough right now. 757 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree with you on that. Neil, thank 758 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: you so much for reporting this morning. Well, I'm sure 759 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: we'll see you a little bit later today.

I was coming back to the 781 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 1: Texas event with President Trump and you know, jumping on 782 00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 1: the internet and Nixon, you know, on social media. It's 783 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 1: on your reaction when you first were informed that we 784 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: were engaged in this escalation with arn. 785 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 13: Well, I mean, the first reaction is no surprise, but 786 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 13: then there's kind of like a take a breath for 787 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:38,840 Speaker 13: a second and go, wow, this is really happening. 788 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 5: So it's all kind of combining together. 789 00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:44,759 Speaker 13: Look, you know a lot of people, we talk a 790 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 13: lot about this, Brian, I have a lot to say. 791 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:47,759 Speaker 5: Obviously, she might imagine and guess what. 792 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 13: We have two hours on American Sunmerri to potentially do that, 793 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 13: unless we're preempted by the Pentagon press conference. Today am Eastern. 794 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:58,399 Speaker 13: But there's a lot to say. First of all, let's 795 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 13: start with this peace through strength. Everybody loves to talk 796 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 13: about the peace part. This is the strength part. You 797 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,799 Speaker 13: don't get the peace without the strength. And a lot 798 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,319 Speaker 13: of people just go stop at peace and go, hey, 799 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:11,919 Speaker 13: I don't want any wars, you know, I just don't 800 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 13: want I don't want to go there. 801 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 5: Well, sometimes you have to. 802 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 13: And you know one thing I don't want, Brian, is 803 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 13: in five years, six years, seven years, when there's a 804 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 13: Neville Chamberlain type president in the White House, some sort 805 00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 13: of squishy liberal democrat, and Iran was not taken out 806 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:34,240 Speaker 13: now and their ballistic missile program is now an intercontinental 807 00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:36,799 Speaker 13: ballistic missile program. And in five to seven years we've 808 00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,320 Speaker 13: got a Neville Chamberlain type and we've got major problems 809 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 13: in America because of the situation that is going on 810 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 13: right now. 811 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:47,880 Speaker 5: And here's what I don't want, Brian. 812 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 13: I don't want us to say in seven years, man 813 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 13: Trump had the opportunity and he didn't take it, and 814 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 13: now we're screwed. I don't want that. I don't want that. 815 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 13: I think he had the opportunity. He's got the khutzba. 816 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 5: There's a few other words that I can't say on television. 817 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,280 Speaker 13: And he did it. And he did it. Now everybody 818 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,000 Speaker 13: talked about Trump being strong, this is it. And look 819 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 13: in terms of America, first, let me just be very clear. 820 00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 13: You know, I'm your friendly neighborhood zionist. Okay, let's be honest, 821 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,719 Speaker 13: all right, But here's the thing. There's a couple of 822 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:23,360 Speaker 13: things America. First, why is this non America? First, seventeen 823 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,760 Speaker 13: Americans killed at the Beayroot Embassy or the US Embassy 824 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 13: in Beirut in nineteen eighty three. Nineteen eighty three, two 825 00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 13: hundred and forty one Americans killed by Iran. We're talking 826 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 13: about by Iran.
