Speaker 2: It's another easy way to do it. All right.

16
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: We've seen President Trump's foreign policy start paying dividends in

17
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: recent weeks. For example, He's fired in ukree is close

18
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: er than ever to becoming a reality after the President

19
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:05,759
Speaker 1: spoke with the leaders of both Russia and Ukraine this week.

20
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 2: There's still a number of steps to get.

21
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: Through before even a partials as far as reach, but

22
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: we now know the two sides are at least open

23
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: to it, and in the Middle East, the President, his

24
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,680
Speaker 1: team and their allies are working to get Americans held

25
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: hostage in that region home, and they secured the release

26
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: today of another American. In a story just the newsbroke,

27
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: the Trump administration and its negotiators, alongside our allies from Qatar,

28
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: were able to secure the release of American hostage Glenn

29
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: Glesman from the Taliban. He was taken by the group

30
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: while traveling through the Middle East as a tourist in

31
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two.

32
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:38,839
Speaker 2: He's been captating for nearly three years.

33
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: The President and his team had previously secured the release

34
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: of two other Americans from Taliban custody, Ryan Corbett and

35
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: William McKenty. We'll have much more in this story in

36
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: just a few minutes because we'll be joined by a

37
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: Katari spokesman to explain the role they played in this

38
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: hostage release. And shortly before the show went on air tonight,

39
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: President Trump signed an executive order to begin closing the

40
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: Department of Edgecation. Here's the President's explanation why he's doing it.

41
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 3: We're going to be returning education very simply back to

42
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 3: the States where it belongs.

43
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 2: And this is a.

44
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 3: Very popular thing to do, but much more importantly, it's

45
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 3: a common sense thing to do.

46
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 2: And it's going to work. Absolutely, it's going to work.

47
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 3: And I can tell you from dealing with the governors

48
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 3: and others in the state, they want it so badly.

49
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 3: They want to take their children back and really teach

50
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 3: their children individually. Probably the cost will be half and

51
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 3: the education will be maybe many, many times better.

52
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 2: Common sense.

53
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: We've heard that a lot lately, and in fact, you're

54
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: beginning to see Americans describe what's going on in Washington

55
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: as common sense. That's the word I think we're going

56
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: to hear a lot more of as the Trump administration

57
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: of the forty seventh presidency unfolds. Now in the room,

58
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: when the President made that signal on the executive order

59
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: and explain what he was doing, was our very own

60
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 1: and my amazing co host, Amanda and Amanda, pretty big moment.

61
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 3: Yes.

62
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 4: Now, the pharmise delivered absolutely another one in the victory column.

63
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 4: He told us exactly why he is looking to close

64
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 4: the Department of Education and return its powers back to

65
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,639
Speaker 4: the States, and it's really kind of hard to argue

66
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 4: with what he had to say. Once you hear this.

67
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 2: Check it out.

68
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 3: After forty five years, the United States spends more money

69
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 3: on education by far than any other country, and spends

70
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 3: likewise by far more money per pupil than any country.

71
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 2: And it's not even close.

72
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 3: But yet we rank near the bottom of the list

73
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 3: in terms of success. It's an amazing stat that's those

74
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 3: are two stats.

75
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 2: You don't want.

76
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 3: The most money spent per pupil and you're at the

77
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 3: bottom of the list. Seventy percent of eighth graders are

78
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 3: not proficient in either reading or in mass seventy percent.

79
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 3: Forty percent of fourth grade is lack even basic reading skills,

80
00:03:59,560 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: can't read.

81
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 4: Damning statistics. Senate really leads you to wonder what is

82
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 4: the Department of Education good for other than investing in

83
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 4: DEI agenda. Those results indicate that it really hasn't been

84
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 4: helping American students for a long time now. And turning

85
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 4: now to congressional leadership here in Washington, d C. We

86
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 4: were talking a little bit about this last night with

87
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 4: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. A congresswoman and former Speaker

88
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 4: of the House, Nancy Pelosi jabbed him a little bit

89
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 4: for caving in and not standing in the way of

90
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 4: the Republican led CR And we also had the news

91
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 4: of the first congressional Democrat calling for a change of

92
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 4: leadership in the Senate, Marilyn Congressman Glenn Ivy went on

93
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 4: record to say Senator Schumer should step down. While Schumer

94
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 4: was also on PBS earlier and he revealed a little

95
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,919
Speaker 4: bit about the current Democrat operation. And I don't entirely

96
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 4: know if he divulged a little too much or not.

97
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 4: But take a listen, you be the judge.

98
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 5: We are mobilizing in New York. We have people going

99
00:04:54,920 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 5: to the Republican districts and going after these republic Bokans

100
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 5: who are voting for this and forcing them to face

101
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 5: change their vote or face the consequences.

102
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 4: So I don't know, it sounds like a whole lot

103
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 4: more excuse making. And that's what we've been hearing from

104
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,840
Speaker 4: a lot of Democrats. And yet the approval rating John

105
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 4: for President Trump, I believe it was at forty nine

106
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 4: percent today, which is the highest it has ever been

107
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 4: in either one of his terms.

108
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, there's a lot going on in terms of success.

109
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: And I think you know today the Education Department's a

110
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: checklisting yep. But earlier in the day, when you bring

111
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: home a hostage. She's been on the ground for three

112
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 1: years in captivity of Taliban. That's not exactly on the list,

113
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: so you know, always is at a priority. But he

114
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: surprises us from all different directions. And I think one

115
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 1: of the things that we're beginning to understand as we

116
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: look at the Russia Ukraine negotiations, as we look at

117
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: what went on with the Taliban today and what we

118
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 1: looked at not too long ago with Israel and Hamas.

119
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: Katar a long time ally in the Middle East. It's

120
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: a tiny country, but it has a long shadow of diplomacy.

121
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: It's helping us in so many different ways right now.

122
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: And I know in a second we're going to turn

123
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 1: to one of the chief advisors to the Katari Prime

124
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: minister to explain what happened.

125
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 2: But Qatar keep an eye on what's going on there.

126
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: Earlier in the year, they were getting children back from

127
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: Russia that had been kidnapped from Ukraine and exchanging Russians

128
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 1: who are kidnapped by Ukraine.

129
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 2: They're making bridges all across.

130
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: The country now and I think the all of the world,

131
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 1: and they're going to be one of the secret sauces,

132
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 1: I think to the Trump administration's negotiating strategy. They've done

133
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 1: so much already, all right, as we promise, right, I

134
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: mean that all the way from Doha, the capital of Qatar,

135
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: the advisor to the Katari Prime Minister and the chief spokesman,

136
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 1: doctor Majid Al I'm sorry, hello Sarah.

137
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 6: Again.

138
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 2: It is good to have you on, sir. What a

139
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 2: great honor.

140
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 1: This is another major victory obviously for the Trump administration.

141
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: But again, Qatar in the background doing really important diplomatic work.

142
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 2: Don't get a lot of.

143
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 1: Credit until something like this happens, but every day you

144
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: guys are playing a role. Tell us how this Taliban

145
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: release came to be.

146
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 6: Well, John, we've been working on this for so many

147
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 6: months now.

148
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 7: We know this is the process that ended.

149
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 6: Up with Corbett and McKenty being home with their families.

150
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 6: And we continued working with the interim government in Afghanistan

151
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 6: and with the administration in Washington.

152
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 7: And since President Trump came to power, we're told.

153
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 6: Hey, let's see what we can do to bring George

154
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 6: back home to his family also, and we started immediately

155
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 6: working on that talking to the interim government. We know

156
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 6: this administration is brave enough, it's bold enough to take

157
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 6: the necessary decision. They said, listen, we're willing to talk

158
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 6: to actually to the Taliban to get George back home.

159
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 6: And this is exactly what happened. Adam was here and

160
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 6: Ohan and he made the meetings and then we went

161
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 6: immediately to Kabul on a Katai airplane where there are

162
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 6: diplomatis were ready to facilitate the meeting between the envoy

163
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 6: and the interim government and met with the Foreigner minister

164
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 6: over there and he discussed with him. The discussion, you know,

165
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 6: took a lot of issues on how to work together

166
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 6: for the benefit of the American people and the Afghan people.

167
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 6: And obviously, as soon as the meetings ended, George was

168
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 6: shaking hands.

169
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 7: With Adam, you know, hanging staff from both the.

170
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 6: US and the Qatari side, and immediately got on the

171
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:27,320
Speaker 6: plane where two physicians were on how medical team were

172
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 6: waiting for him on the plane. They immediately checked his health,

173
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 6: texted vitals and we were very happy to report that

174
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 6: he was in good health when he got on the plane.

175
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 6: He came here to Doha where he is now on

176
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 6: a fly to the United States hopefully within you know,

177
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 6: ten to fourteen hours, he'll be againn I to do

178
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 6: with Alexander after two years, two years lost for that

179
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 6: family that we hope they can again.

180
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 4: Now, Yeah, amazing, that's going to be another amazing moment

181
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 4: here in Washington, Sir. He's been gone for over two years.

182
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 4: I have to imagine that this could have happened sooner,

183
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 4: but maybe it couldn't. Why wasn't Why didn't this happen

184
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 4: under Joe Biden? Was there a way without the will?

185
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 2: Why not?

186
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 6: I mean, I don't want to talk about the previous administration,

187
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 6: but I can tell you about this administration and.

188
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 7: I will engage into this.

189
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 6: It's the level of boldness, it's the decisiveness, and it's

190
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 6: the readiness to be open to be engaging on these issues,

191
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 6: as we have seen, you know, with Adam Buller meeting

192
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 6: with the NTAIM government and saying to them, hey, let's

193
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 6: talk it out, let's see what we have to discuss.

194
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 6: And this is why we have this grand gesture now

195
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 6: with the interim government basically deleasing Joge as a show

196
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 6: of good faith and dealing with the Trump administration.

197
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 7: This is what decisiveness gets you. It gets you as results.

198
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

199
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: Also, it helps to have an ally that's always working

200
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: in the region for us and trying to get these

201
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: things done. I don't think Americans realize how much guitar

202
00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: is involved in right now, they're involved in the Russia

203
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: you brain matter, certainly, even creating goodwill between two countries

204
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 1: that are warring by the exchange of children. You were

205
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,839
Speaker 1: at the table all the way through the Hamas negotiations

206
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: and getting many of those hostages released. Can you bring

207
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: us up to speed? Obviously the hostilities resumed this week.

208
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: I know people frustrated, but tell us where things stan.

209
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: Is there the potential for another ceasefire or has that

210
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: moment moved past us?

211
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 6: You know, John Aman, we've been working on right now. Actually,

212
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 6: as we speak, we're working on ten different mediations. You know,

213
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 6: we just had the Presidence of Onanda the DX in

214
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 6: Doha for the first meeting between the two leaders since

215
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 6: the crisis over there. As we said, we're working on Russia, Ukraine,

216
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 6: We're working on Hamas, Israel. All of these mediations. You

217
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 6: know some of them, you hear about some of them.

218
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 6: You don't take a lot of toll in our machine here,

219
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 6: but we're committed to it, and certainly foremost is the

220
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 6: war in Gresident the situation over there.

221
00:10:59,080 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 7: You know, since the.

222
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 6: Staces have begun again, we have a post at more

223
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 6: than five hundred people being killed in that there's a

224
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 6: number that we do not want to see, the numbers

225
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 6: that we cannot even fathom the need for right now,

226
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 6: and this is why we within the daily difficult situation

227
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 6: we have right now, we're continuing to engage.

228
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,199
Speaker 7: Our Prime Minister was on the phone today.

229
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 6: With the Egyptian Foreign Minister and he and they agreed

230
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 6: and said in their communicating their activity that we will

231
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 6: continue working on this and finding avenues of peace. This

232
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 6: is not an easy conflict to mediate. Tensions are very

233
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 6: high on both sides. There's a complete loss of trust

234
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 6: on both sides. We were able, with the help of

235
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 6: the President Trump administration to get the ceasefire and in place.

236
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 6: It lasted for more than forty days. But we need

237
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 6: to go back now to the drawing table and find

238
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 6: the Rice formula. We have course urged both parties to

239
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 6: go back to the agreement that was signed, but we

240
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 6: will not continue in you know, finding innovative ways of

241
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 6: getting back to the negotiation table and making both sides

242
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 6: agree to another ceasefire that will hopefully lead to an

243
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 6: end to this.

244
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 2: War, Sir.

245
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 4: When President Trump took office the first time, a lot

246
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 4: of his naysayers said, he's a businessman, he knows nothing

247
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 4: about diplomacy and foreign policy. He's going to start World

248
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 4: War three, and you know, all of these criticisms against

249
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 4: criticisms against him. Yet we saw the Abraham Accords, something

250
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,719
Speaker 4: that was so historic in that region. And I want

251
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 4: to ask you from your perspective and cutter for his

252
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 4: second term this time around. I know a lot of

253
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 4: people obviously want to see an expansion of the Abraham Accords.

254
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 4: Where do you see more opportunities for that to happen?

255
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 6: You know, Amanda, we've always seen President Trump as a

256
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 6: decision maker. We've always seen him as a pragmatic leader,

257
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 6: and we've always.

258
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 7: Seen him as a deal maker.

259
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 6: And it's just the same with His Highness the end over.

260
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 6: They both men deal makers, both men not pragmatic, and

261
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 6: both men are decisive. And this is why during the

262
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 6: first Trump administration, you know, we had the end of

263
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 6: the longest wall in US history in Afghanistan with the

264
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 6: mediation of Gutad, and now we had ceasefire. Even before

265
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 6: President Trump came into the White House for this term,

266
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 6: he was able to bring through that deal, and this

267
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 6: is why we have great trust in the administration that

268
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 6: will help us and getting a lot of these deals across.

269
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:15,959
Speaker 6: I think one of the main things we have to

270
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 6: say right now is that our region in the Middle East,

271
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 6: and not only our region. If you look at the

272
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 6: world today, if you put your you know, one finger

273
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 6: on the Atlantic Ocean, another finger on the Pacific Ocean,

274
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 6: anything in between is probably conflict one.

275
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 7: Way or the other. There's the failure of the central state.

276
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 6: Are the conflicts internal and external all around the world.

277
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 6: There's a lot that needs to be done, and I

278
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 6: think one of the main things right now is to

279
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 6: stop and put a cap on the conflicts that have

280
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 6: taken so many lives right now, the situation in Raza,

281
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 6: situation in Ukraine, situation in Sudan, situation in Yemen and

282
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,680
Speaker 6: Libya and other places. And we are hoping that with

283
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 6: the Trump administration we can start, you know, putting on

284
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 6: the victory column. As you just said about local politics,

285
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 6: and a lot of these conflicts has done, dusted and

286
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 6: ready to start with the reconstruction and getting people's lives

287
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 6: together and this is something we believe that we can

288
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 6: do in partnership with the United States.

289
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you have already done. I mean, the record

290
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 2: is clear.

291
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: So I want to ask one last question because a

292
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: lot of people probably don't know the role that you've

293
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: played in lessening hostilities and opening the door for Ukraine

294
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: and Russia maybe to get a piecedale with President Trump.

295
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: And it began with the exchange of children back in

296
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: the I think November December holiday time frame here in America.

297
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: You guys are at the table regularly between two countries.

298
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: What is your assessment of where these talks go? Is

299
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 1: there a chance for a sease far or a limited

300
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 1: seas fire in the days ahead?

301
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 6: Now, obviously, John, we've we've been working on this issue

302
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 6: for a very long time, from even the first couple

303
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 6: of days.

304
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 7: When this happened.

305
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 6: How a Prime minister was in Moscow extending a hand

306
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 6: of a mediator and saying, listen, we're ready to mediate

307
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 6: whenever today's a chance to. We were part of the

308
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 6: Grain deal when it happened, and we have reunited the

309
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 6: councils Ukrainian children with their families as a result of

310
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 6: our mediation over there. We are working with the energy

311
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 6: issue right now and securing the energy in the season,

312
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 6: and in both countries, we have seen the momentum that's

313
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 6: taking place in next year.

314
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 7: In Saudi Arabia, we have issued.

315
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 6: In a statement welcoming these efforts and hoping for these

00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 6: in the momentum that was created and we believe that

321
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 6: there is a chance for this conflict, one of the

322
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 6: longest lasting right now that we have seen to end

323
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:50,600

Speaker 1: country did to bring one of our fellow countrymen home today.

Speaker 1: I know we're going to get an opportunity maybe to

330
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: see the Prime Minister of Qatar and Washington soon. We'll

331

332
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:08,960

333
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: giving this very important update TDA. A great hour to

00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: have you on the show.

335
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 7: Thank you very much for having me, John Tody, thank you.

336
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 2: So yeah, that was great, very good.

337
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: All right, folks, we're going to take a quick commercial

338
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 1: break when we come back. Congressman Tim Burch and I

339
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: spent some time earlier today when a man was over

340
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: at the White House. He's got some interesting ideas, including

341
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: he has a build to address that Taliban. He wants

342
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: to cut off the US taxpayer funding to Taliban. He'll

343
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 1: explain why right after these message. Indeed, hey, folks, did

344
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: you know scammers can literally steal your home right out

345
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 1: from under you. The FBI calls at house stealing, and

346
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: it's a growing real estate scam targeting American homeowners.

347
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 2: Here's how it works.

348
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: Criminals forge your signature on one document, use a fake

349
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: notary stamp, pay a small fee, and file it with

350
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: your local recorder's office, and just like that, your home

351
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: title has been transferred out of your name. Then they

352
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: can take out loans using your equity s colado, or

353
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: even sell the property behind your back, and you won't

354
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 1: even know it's happening until you start getting collections or

355
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: for coldure notices months later. So let me ask you,

356
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: when was the last time you checked your home title lock?

357
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 1: If you like me, the answer is never. And that's

358
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 1: exactly what cameras are counting on. That's why I trust
