The big phone call coming 31 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 2: today between Putin and Tromp. The astronauts are as we speak, on. 32 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 4: Their way back. Yeah, the two that have been stranded 33 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 4: for nine months. 34 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 2: A strange story about Trump taking secret service away from 35 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:31,199 Speaker 2: some of Biden. 36 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 4: A couple of Biden's kids. 37 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 2: Also concerned this morning over Tracy Morgan after a concerning 38 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 2: scene courtside at the Knicks game last night. And then 39 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: Forever twenty one, Oh, take the forever out of that. 40 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 2: I guess we could call him iconic, can we not? 41 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: But to hear that Forever twenty one is possibly going away? 42 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: Most certainly this was a brand that millennials flocked to 43 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: in malls across America. I saw a headline that said 44 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: Forever no more, certainly a sad head line out of 45 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: many of some troubling news out of the world today. 46 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: And we're going to begin our run overseas where the 47 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 1: ceasefire has not only been broken, but is now being 48 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: described as shattered in the Middle East. This is all 49 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: after Israel's surprise bombardment. It happened earlier today in Gaza. 50 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 2: Now, the air strikes killed at least three hundred and 51 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: twenty six people, women and children among the dead. 52 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 4: That is according to hospital officials there. This is the. 53 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 2: Largest barrage of strikes since the seasfire was put in 54 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: place in January. 55 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,519 Speaker 1: Now Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyah, who says he ordered 56 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: these strikes because of a lack of progress in the 57 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 1: peace talks. Though the first phase of the seasfire did 58 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: result in the agreed upon exchanges of hostages and Palestinian prisoners. 59 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, it seemed to be at least the first phase going. 60 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 2: Had some hiccups, but it did seem to go. 61 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 4: Ahead as planned. But if you weren't looking at the calendar, 62 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 4: might not realize that. 63 00:02:55,880 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 2: First phase actually ended officially March first. So open to 64 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 2: minanya who says there hasn't been much movement in progress 65 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: so in an agreement on the next phase of the ceasefire, 66 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: that's why he moved fired forward with these strikes. 67 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 4: The fear is this morning rolls of course that this is. 68 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: Now full scale war that could. 69 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 4: Be back on. 70 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: It's so sad to see after so much progress was made. 71 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: It's just it's disheartening and was not the news any 72 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: of us wanted to wake up to this morning. All right, 73 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: next up on the run with that sad news potentially 74 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: out of the Middle East. There is hope this morning 75 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: that the three year long war in Ukraine could finally 76 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: be on its way to peace. 77 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 2: Well, this is a big deal this morning and a 78 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 2: big phone call. President Trump will be on the line 79 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 2: with Russian President Vladimir Putin. They're going to discuss the 80 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 2: potential ceasefire with Ukraine. Trump said many elements of a 81 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 2: piece agreement have already been agreed upon with Putin ahead 82 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: of today's call. 83 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: However, Trump says much remains to be figured out before 84 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: a deal is actually reached. Trump took to social media 85 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: he wrote, this each week brings twenty five hundred soldier 86 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: jats from both sides, and it must end now. I 87 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: look very much forward to the call with President Putin, 88 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: very much. 89 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: To the call with President Putin, and Trump said land 90 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 2: power plants will be a part of the conversation about 91 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 2: ending the conflicts, saying the two countries will have to 92 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 2: divide up certain assets. For his part, Ukrainian President Zalynski 93 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 2: remained skeptically accused Putin of dragging out the war, saying 94 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 2: the proposal could have been implemented long ago. 95 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: Could have been, should have been. So I hope you 96 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: can't get meyred down. When I say we, I mean 97 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: they don't get meyerd down in that because when you 98 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: deal with the reality of the situation. This is the 99 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: first time in three years we've even heard that there 100 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: are even talks or willingness to talk. So it is 101 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: progress and we hope this call today will further that 102 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: progress and both sides can come to the to the 103 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: table with hope and an aim towards ending this. There 104 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: was fighting last night, drones back and forth, damage happening again. 105 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's time to end this. 106 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 2: Please make no mistake here. We are talking for there's 107 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 2: a phone call today and after that phone call there's 108 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: a possibility that we could hear something about this three 109 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 2: year war ending. This is a good point here. I 110 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 2: forgot about this rope. We've given the updates about the 111 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 2: pope every single day, its health, but he has penned 112 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: a letter, a letter to the editor that's come out 113 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 2: that he wrote over the weekend, but they just released it. 114 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 4: And our first two stories here were about war, so 115 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 4: this makes me inserted here. 116 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 2: But he said his stay in the hospital, which has 117 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: been a month now, has given him more clarity and 118 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 2: made him more lucid about the absurdity of war. Wow, 119 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: and he made a call for this all to just stop. 120 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: I just got chills from head to ten because nothing 121 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: will bring you to what's really important when you face death. 122 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:46,359 Speaker 1: Everything else is put into perspective. And how interesting that 123 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: the Pope who already had that perspective, now facing his 124 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: own potential demise, or at least seeing that he's close 125 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 1: to it, brought him even more clarity. 126 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 3: Is pretty remarkable. 127 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: He speaks to a parish in Gaza every single day, 128 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: so I know he's focused on the Middle East and 129 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: he feels personally a part of that with that parish 130 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: that he throughout all of this, he has made that 131 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: daily phone. 132 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 4: Call to your point. The fragility of life is what 133 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 4: is in that letter as well. Again, after going through 134 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 4: what he's he's going. 135 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: Through all right, next up on the run, Well, this 136 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: seems so petty after what we just said. Because it 137 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: is kind of petty, all right. President Trump announced he 138 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: is ending the Secret Service protection details for Joe Biden's 139 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: adult children, effective immediately. 140 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 2: Okay, so the former president President Biden extended the protection 141 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 2: to his kids through July. He did this just before 142 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 2: he left office. This is something Trump did as well 143 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: for his children, did it for six months before. He 144 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: did this six months before leaving office during his first terms. 145 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 2: I guess this is not an odd thing that Biden did. 146 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: No, the point being, Trump did the exact same thing 147 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: for his kids. So Trump took to social media to 148 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: write this. He said, Hunter Biden has had Secret Service 149 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 1: protection for an extended period of time, all paid for 150 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 1: by the United States sax bear, please be advised that, 151 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: effective immediately, Hunter Biden will no longer receive Secret Service protection. Likewise, 152 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: Ashley Biden, who has thirteen agents, will be taken off 153 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: the list. 154 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 2: Thirteen sounds like a lot. 155 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 3: Sounds like a lot. 156 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 2: But former presidents and their spouses, of course, receive lifelong 157 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 2: Secret Service protection, but that protection ends with their immediate 158 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: family over the age of sixteen when they leave office. 159 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 4: So I wasn't even clear about that. 160 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: Yes, but this is interesting how this all came about. 161 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: Apparently a reporter just randomly asked him if he was 162 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: going to revoke Secret Service protection for Hunter, and Trump 163 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: seemed to be surprised, as if he forgot or didn't 164 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: realize that that had been extended. So he said, you 165 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: know what, I'm going to take a look at that, 166 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: and hours later he made this announcement. So a reporter 167 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: asking him a question prompted this.

When she got up, she made a little joke. 329 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 2: First, she made first two things out of a mile. 330 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 2: She made a reference that this is the one that 331 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 2: went viral. She said, make sure my lighting is right. 332 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 2: She made just some crack. 333 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 4: About the lighting. 334 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: Is my lighting okay, okay, Now everybody. 335 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 4: In the arena cracked in the theater cracked up. 336 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 2: And again we've had some experience, and apparently everybody is 337 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 2: aware that she is very particular. 338 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 4: About her lighting. 339 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: So I actually had the amazing pleasure of interviewing her. 340 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 1: This is many, many years ago, and she does come 341 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 1: with an entourage, not surprising, and among her entourage was 342 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: her own personal lighting director.

No, she has 345 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: a personal lighting director. You cannot take a selfie with 346 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: her unless she approves said selfie. She is very careful 347 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 1: about her image and how it is presented, so she 348 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: was making light of that. At least that was what 349 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: we how we took it. 350 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 2: Okay, yes, she did it to me, but we were 351 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 2: sitting at a vantage point where we could turn around 352 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 2: and we. 353 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 3: Could see that telepropter. 354 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 2: So people are giving her hell about getting up there 355 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 2: and having a diva moment. That moment, folks, was in 356 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 2: the teleprompter. 357 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: It was planned and scripted, and it was absolutely meant 358 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: to be funny. 359 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 4: And it worked. But it's amazing that people were even being. 360 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 2: A little critical, a little harsh kind of a thing. 361 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 2: It was both of those first two things were scripted jokes. 362 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, because she was making fun of the fact that 363 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 1: she is, in fact a diva. Yes, and I don't 364 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: think she would ever dispute that she. 365 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 3: Is a diva. 366 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: I would actually say she would say she's earned the 367 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: right to. 368 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 3: Be a diva. 369 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 2: Yes, and she yes. And I feel honest, I didn't 370 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 2: know that about the selfie thing. I think it's still 371 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 2: up on my Instagram. I had a selfie with her something. 372 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 3: Does she know about it? 373 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 2: Well? 374 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 3: Oh, if she took it you're fine. 375 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 4: OK, yes, you know what. 376 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 2: Now that you say that, it wasn't a selfie. One 377 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 2: of our people took it. They sent it to me 378 00:16:58,280 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 2: later and then I posted it. 379 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 3: So you were a part of the process that I was. 380 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, damn. So I don't feel honored anymore. 381 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 2: Before you let you go on this Tuesday morning, Ron, 382 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 2: something we would like for you to consider it is 383 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 2: your quote of the day. 384 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: It is better to fail in originality than to succeed 385 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: in imitation. We heard a lot about this last night 386 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: from artists. Lady Gaga that was part of her main 387 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: acceptance speech to talk about being original to support people, 388 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 1: and a lot of artists saying when they were told 389 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: no I think we heard was it Sisa talking about 390 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: or Glorilla was talking about it? Just you know how 391 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: great it feels to be finally up here when people 392 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 1: told her to change or to be different, or to. 393 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 3: Do it this way. 394 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 1: When you do it your way and you keep trying, 395 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:42,479 Speaker 1: that's that's true success. 396 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 4: A good quote. 397 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 2: You picked this one today, but I didn't realize it 398 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 2: absolutely went with the theme last night, so many got up. 399 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 2: Authenticity was absolutely a theme last night. So folks take 400 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 2: that one with you. It is better to fall fail 401 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 2: in originality. Again, it is better to fail in originality 402 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 2: than to succeed in imitation. 403 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 1: And with that everyone, we hope you enjoy your Tuesday. 404 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,360 Speaker 1: Thank you for running with us. 405 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 3: I'm Amy Robot. 406 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 2: We have a seven thirty four i'd like to catch. 407 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 4: We'll see y'all back in New York for the next 408 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 4: run tomorrow
