1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: An hour two Sean Hannity Show told free it's eight 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:04,320 Speaker 1: hundred and nine foot one Shawn. If you want to 3 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:06,560 Speaker 1: be a part of the program, we have gone over 4 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 1: in great specificity, great detail, what President Trump has been 5 00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: able to do with Israel in terms of devastating Iran 6 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: and I just I honestly, I go back to where 7 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,120 Speaker 1: I've been for a long time, is if Donald Trump 8 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: cured cancer, the left in this country would would be critical, 9 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: He'd have his critics. They'd be never ending, non stop. 10 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 2: You know. 11 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: Now, the president over the weekend, you know, he was very, 12 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: very strategic in hitting carg Island, all the military targets 13 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 1: except for their oil infrastructure, which by the way, proves 14 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 1: to the Iranians he can wipe them out in terms 15 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: of their economy in a matter of minutes, and they 16 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: can destroy the oil within five minutes if they want. 17 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to do it. The President wanted a 18 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: deal unless you're, you know, a conspiracy theorist that doesn't 19 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: want to believe Steve Whitdkoff who sat there with the 20 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: Iranians and they insisted that they had an inalienable right 21 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 1: to have nuclear weapons and bragging about how they were 22 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 1: you know, had four hundred and sixty kilograms of sixty 23 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,399 Speaker 1: percent enriched uranium, which in seven to ten days would 24 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,839 Speaker 1: be weapons grade ninety percent. I'm not going to spend 25 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: a lot of time on this show arguing with people 26 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: that have learned nothing from history and are just ignorant 27 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 1: and just absolutely you know, married to either an ideology 28 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,759 Speaker 1: or just stupid. I mean, it's really that simple. I'm 29 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: not going to argue it's stupid anyway. So this is 30 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:42,119 Speaker 1: the President describing how everything on Cargo Island was destroyed 31 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 1: except for the oil. 32 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 3: As you know, we attacked Cargo Island and knocked it, 33 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 3: knocked it literally destroyed everything in the island except for 34 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 3: the area where the oil is. I call it the pipes. 35 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 2: We left the pipes. 36 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 3: We didn't want to do that, but that we will 37 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 3: do that. We can do that on five minutes notice, 38 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 3: it'll be over. But for purposes of someday rebuilding that country. 39 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 3: I guess we did the right thing. But it's uh, 40 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 3: it may not stay that way. Just one simple word 41 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: and the pipes will be gone too, but it'll take 42 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 3: a long time to rebuild that. 43 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 2: Now. 44 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: The President also it's not just the United States as 45 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, the United this country now being 46 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: energy independent, we could survive one hundred percent on our 47 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: own with the lifeblood of the world's economy, which is 48 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: why energy has been so critical. Going back years ago 49 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: on the show Grill Here, Drill Now, Save Money, New 50 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: Gingrich started that, and we we champion that with him 51 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: for a long long time on this program. When when 52 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: things started in his first term to go really, really well, 53 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: we started connecting many of you out in this audience 54 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: with companies that were offering high paying career jobs. I 55 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: mean like one hundred thousand dollars to train you and 56 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: all the overtime you can take and a place to live. 57 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: It was insane, and there were plenty of jobs available, 58 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: and people would call us and tell me that their 59 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: lives would transform because of these high paying career jobs. 60 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: And we're gonna now put all of them online again. 61 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: But anyway, the President rightly is pointing out that it's 62 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,239 Speaker 1: not just the United States that needs the straight of 63 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 1: Horror moves open. It's it's all of the rest of 64 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: the world. And now he's saying to you know, uh, 65 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: Western Europe in particular and other countries, no, you help 66 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: protect the straight of horn moves. 67 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: Here's what he said. 68 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 4: We are talking to other countries about working do this 69 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 4: for the policing the straight and I think we're getting 70 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 4: good response and we do that straight and we know 71 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 4: that's good. Remember as an example of many cases that 72 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 4: NATO countries, we're always there for NATO. We're helping them 73 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 4: with a great it's got a. 74 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: Notion have been within us. 75 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 4: Does it affect us if we've helped them? It'd be 76 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 4: interesting to see what country wouldn't help us with a 77 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 4: very small endeavor, which is just keeping the straight up 78 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 4: and why aren't we maintaining harbor straight? 79 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 5: But I's trow you there for China and many other countries, 80 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 5: why aren't they doing it? And that's because we had 81 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 5: week leadership, to be honest with you, But I'm bringing 82 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 5: it up down because I think even long term, I 83 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 5: think it's something that by the countries should help us 84 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:34,679 Speaker 5: with something that we don't need and these countries learning 85 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 5: and yet for years it's like for years we've been 86 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 5: maintaining and. 87 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 6: Doing a great job. 88 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 5: And now that the war is, now that. 89 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 4: They've been adminished in terms of military there military has 90 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 4: been greatly diminishing. I think it's a good for other 91 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 4: countries to come in. I were really up commanding that 92 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 4: these countries come in and protect their old territory because 93 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 4: you their journor, it's the place from which they get 94 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 4: their energy, and they should come and they should help us. 95 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: Now, the other story that we are monitoring and watching 96 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: is the president with Cuba. Now, the anti Castro Cubans 97 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: tried to actually burn down their local Communist party headquarters 98 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: over the weekend. I would tell you any day this 99 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: week if Cuba fell, it would not shock me. 100 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 2: I know. 101 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 1: The President is obviously dialed into what's going on in 102 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: this conflict with Iran and wants to get this wrapped 103 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 1: up as soon as possible. I don't know if if 104 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: if this four hundred and sixty kilograms becomes an issue 105 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: of a risk of getting into the wrong hands, and 106 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: at that point it gets a little bit more complicated 107 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: keeping the Strait of Hormoso open as complicated watching internally 108 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: because Joe Biden and Kamala Harris allowed all these unvetted, 109 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: you know, illegals into the country, including known terrorists from 110 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: you know, over to their countries, including countries with terroritize 111 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: that's a big worry, big concern for everybody, but we're 112 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: getting there anyway. Ambassador Nathan Sales is with us. He 113 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: was in the first Trump administration Ambassador at Large for 114 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 1: counter Terrorism and by the way, acting Secretary of State. 115 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: He played a massive role in the maximum pressure campaign 116 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: against the Iranian regime and its terror proxies, and in 117 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: twenty two was sanctioned by Iran. Today he talks to 118 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: us about Iran, carg Island, and Cuba. Ambassador, First, your 119 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: thoughts on Cuba before we get into the whole Iranian 120 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: situation where we are just a little over two weeks 121 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: into this. 122 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 7: Well, Shan, thanks for having me. Things are looking better 123 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 7: for the freedom loving people of Cuba and pro democracy 124 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 7: elements in Cuba today than they have in recent memory. 125 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 7: That's not to say that the communist dictatorship is going 126 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 7: to collapse inevitably. Nothing is inevitable in geopolitics. But the 127 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 7: regime is weak and its needs a little bit of 128 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 7: a push, and maybe the long suffering people of Cuba 129 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 7: will find liberation at hand. What's that push look like, 130 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 7: who knows. It's impossible to predict, but the pressure that 131 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 7: this administration has been putting on the Cuban economy. And actually, 132 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 7: let's take a step back. Cuba has been putting pressure 133 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 7: on its own economy for the past two generations because 134 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 7: that's what communism does. It destroys markets, it destroys innovation, 135 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 7: it destroys risk taking in the private sector. So Cuba's 136 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 7: economy is weak and going to fail even without help 137 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 7: from the United States. But what this administration has been 138 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 7: doing is cutting off the economic lifeblood from other countries, 139 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 7: and that's oil Venezuela, and oil is no longer flowing 140 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 7: to Cuba, and the administration has clearly messaged to other 141 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 7: countries you're going to be facing American repercussions if you 142 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 7: continue to subsidize the Cuban regime with free or heavily 143 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 7: discounted oil. So I think the pieces are now in 144 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 7: place for maybe finally some change in Havana. 145 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 2: What do you think that looks like? 146 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: Because I can imagine if in fact, the Cuban people 147 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: are free, I could see a lot of you know, 148 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: make Cuba make a great again flags and this will 149 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: be a liberation long in the making, because they, like 150 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: the people in Venezuela, have been suffering in poverty when 151 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: both nations can be extraordinarily wealthy. I mean, the geography 152 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: of Cuba, with all of its waterfront and ocean front property, 153 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: is just spectacular. I could see immediately American investment and 154 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: worldwide investment in building out resort after resort after resort, 155 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: and property values soaring, and also the quality of life 156 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: of the Cuban people going through the roof in ways 157 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: that they never dreamed of, you know, a year ago. 158 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 7: I think that's right. And Cuba has a number of 159 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 7: extraordinary resources that would position it to become an economic powerhouse. 160 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 7: And you mentioned the landscape and the geography. I think 161 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 7: the most important resource Cuba has is human people. The 162 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 7: intellectual capital of the Cuban people, much of which is 163 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 7: now residing in the United States. The entrepreneurs, the innovators, 164 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,479 Speaker 7: the risk takers. They don't want to live under communism, 165 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 7: and they got out and a lot of them came 166 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 7: to Florida, a lot of them came to Miami. Imagine 167 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 7: what Cuba would look like ten years from now with 168 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 7: those entrepreneurs, unleashed by democracy and freedom to invest in 169 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 7: their homeland and turn it into something extraordinary. You don't 170 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 7: need a heavy handed government bureaucrat to dictate outcomes. They're 171 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 7: all you need is freedom and the resources and innovative 172 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 7: capabilities of the Cuban American diaspora, and great things would happen. 173 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: All right, Let's move on to Iran and carg Island 174 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: and in the Northern Persian Gulf. It's about thirty four 175 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: miles northwest of the mainland. The island service as a 176 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: terminal for nearly all of Iran's oil exporting and they 177 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: have a loading capacity of about seven million barrels. I 178 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: think the President rightly and cleverly hit the military targets 179 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: on the island, but did ignore the oil infrastructure, but 180 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: he made it very clear that that would be an 181 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: easy target. How important is this strategically and does it 182 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: in any way you think impact whoever is in charge 183 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: of Iran they're thinking in terms of stopping the free 184 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 1: flow of oil through the straight of Horror moves? 185 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 7: Well, I think it's very important, and it's a direct 186 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 7: response to the play that we've been seeing from the 187 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 7: Iranian regime over the past week and a half, and 188 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 7: that is to hold the world's energy markets hostage by 189 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 7: shutting down shipping in the straits of Horror moves. I 190 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 7: think it's twenty million barrels a day transit the Strait, 191 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 7: which is a substantial percentage of the world's supply, and 192 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 7: that's really been cut to a trickle because of Iranian 193 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 7: attacks on civilian shipping. And that shouldn't come as a 194 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 7: surprise that Iran would attacks civilians. That's what terror regimes do. 195 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 7: That's why I ran as the world's worst state sponsor 196 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 7: of terrorism. So the ad ministry's response is to say, well, 197 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 7: we can take a hostage too, and that strike on 198 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 7: Friday after the markets were closed, By the way, that 199 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 7: strike on Friday evening sent a very clear message we 200 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 7: have the capability to creator your economy. We're not doing 201 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 7: it because that's not the outcome we want. We don't 202 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 7: want death and destruction beyond what is necessary to achieve 203 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 7: our military and political objectives. But that should have sent 204 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 7: an extremely clear message to the Ayatola as a supreme leader, 205 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 7: if he's even conscious right now, that we're not messing around. 206 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 7: And so hopefully the market will respond to this, and 207 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 7: hopefully the Iranian regime will start to back off of 208 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 7: the campaign of terror that has been waging against ships 209 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 7: for the past ten days. 210 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's very very critical. I quick break 211 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: more with Ambassador Nathan Sales. He served in the first 212 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: Trump administration as Ambassador at Large for counter Terrorism and 213 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: acting under Secretary of State. More with him on the 214 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: other side than your calls coming up this Monday, eight 215 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,719 Speaker 1: hundred and nine four one, Sean. If you want to 216 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: be a part of the program, the. 217 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 8: Radio show, the mainstream media love State, this is the 218 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 8: Sean Hannity Show. 219 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 1: All right, we continue Ambassador Nathan Sales's with us now. 220 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: He served in the first Trump administration as Ambassador at 221 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: Large for counter Terrorism, acting under Secretary of State. As 222 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: we analyze what is happening in Iran and Cuba on 223 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: the verge of collapsing. I've never in my lifetime and 224 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: I'm not a big supporter of war. 225 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 2: I'm not. 226 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: And however, after I interviewed Steve Wikoff, I realized what 227 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: the President realized and what he had to factor in, 228 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: and that is they were seven to ten days away 229 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: from being able to enrich uranium to weapons grade in 230 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: that short period of time. And that's when Steve Wikoff 231 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: publicly said, and that's when I kind of got the 232 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: impression this was going to be a go because the 233 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: President had been amassing a huge military presence in the region. 234 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: Is once they were hell bent on getting nuclear weapons. 235 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: I'd believe that, you know, unfortunately for President Trump in 236 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: this sense, but fortunately for. 237 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 2: We, the American people. 238 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: It's you know, how do you ever calculate how many 239 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: lives likely down the road are saved because he prevented 240 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: a nuclear arm torn With all my heart, I believe 241 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: in my soul that if they got this weapon, they 242 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: would use it, but you're never going to be able 243 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: to quantify that. But I don't think he had any 244 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 1: short in this matter. And I just think the media 245 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: has been brutally abusively corrupt, bias and unfair, and people 246 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: with their agendas nauseate me. 247 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 9: Well, that's the. 248 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 7: Nightmare scenario that Iran, the world's worst state sponsor of terrorism, 249 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 7: gets the world's deadliest weapon and they would use it. 250 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 7: That doesn't necessarily mean they would use it to detonate 251 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 7: a bomb over Tel Aviv, but they could use it 252 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 7: in other ways. They could use it to threaten the 253 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 7: United States and threaten Israel and threaten our allies in 254 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 7: the region. They could use it to cause the mere 255 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 7: existence of it to sow confusion and chaos and doubt 256 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 7: about the strength of the American security commitment to our 257 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 7: allies in Europe. So no question, Iran cannot have a weapon. 258 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 7: And the fact that the regime was doubling down on 259 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 7: enrichment tells you everything you need to know about their priorities. 260 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 7: They're not enriching uranium because they want nuclear power. They're 261 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 7: enriching it because they want to preserve a pathway to 262 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 7: a bomb. It's obvious, and at a certain point you 263 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 7: have to say, all right, negotiations are our first option, 264 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 7: and we would like to negotiate a peaceful end of 265 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 7: this program. But ultimately it's up to the Iranians if 266 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 7: they're going to take the olive branch. And the regime 267 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 7: decided not to take the olive branch and they got 268 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 7: the arrows instead. 269 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: Spectacular that they learned nothing from Operation Midnight Hammer to 270 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: me anyway, ambassadorselves, we appreciate you being with us. 271 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 2: Thank you. Eight hundred nine one. Shawn is her number. 272 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: If you want to be a part of this program. 273 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 6: The Sean Hannity Show, a Thermonuclear Mma Assault on Facing News. 274 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 8: Hannity's on right now. 275 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 1: All right, twenty five now to the top.

I barely I 278 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: I didn't know the the Oscars were on last night. 279 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: My understanding is I think they're moving after I guess 280 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: being on ABC since the seventies. My recollection Linda is 281 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: that they're moving to YouTube at some point. 282 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 2: Is that true? 283 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 6: Yeah? 284 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 10: I just heard that too, because I don't know that 285 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 10: much about it, And in prepping for today's show, I 286 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 10: was like, Okay, so twenty twenty nine, they are leaving 287 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 10: ABC after how many years? Since nineteen seventy six they've 288 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 10: been on ABC. 289 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: Right years ago, I would have been inclined to at 290 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: least tune into it. You know, there was a point 291 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: when when Hollywood had a stature, they had a certain 292 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: class about not everybody in Hollywood. It was woke, left wing, 293 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: you know, insane the way they are now and it's 294 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: just it's just it has evolved into an unwatchable hate 295 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: fest and I wouldn't even bother tuning in. 296 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 2: It just is not worth it. 297 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: I've been watching the series ad by Roma Downey and 298 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: her husband Mark Burnett. It's actually on Fox Nation dot Com. 299 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: It's a great series. I don't know if you watched it, 300 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: and I have. It's really good. It really is well. 301 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: First they have the Bible, the history of the Bible. 302 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: You watch that version, and then it leads it starts 303 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 1: with the Crucifixion all the way through the acts of 304 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: the Apostles. It's pretty cool, uh, and the early days 305 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: of of of the Christian faith. 306 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 2: It's it's pretty fascinating. 307 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 10: Watch Passion of the Christ this time of year. 308 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's well. 309 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: I'll watch it at least once a year, sometimes twice, 310 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: sometimes more. And The Chosen is a great series. I've 311 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: watched that at least five times start to finish. I 312 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 1: can't wait for the you know, yeah, uh huh. I'll 313 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 1: watch like an episode of a night, you know, until 314 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: I finally get through all the seasons. Some nights I'll 315 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: sneak in two episodes because I don't want to stop 316 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,959 Speaker 1: watching it, so nobody watches. Here's Jimmy Kimmel, for example. 317 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 1: I guess he was given out one of the awards. 318 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 2: I guess. 319 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: Conan O'Brien, you know, from all I read this morning, 320 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: there was there's a lot of hate trumpet this thing, 321 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 1: and it's just not a surprise. But it's not funny either, 322 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: and is this not worth anybody's time? That's the worst part. 323 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: They have rendered themselves irrelevant, and even the mainstream media 324 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: is writing about its lack of relevancy. Anyway, here's Kimmel. 325 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 9: As you know, there are some countries whose leaders don't 326 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 9: support free speech. I'm not at liberty to say which 327 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 9: let's just leave it at North Korea and CBS. Fortunately, 328 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 9: fortunately for all of us, there is an international community 329 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 9: of filmmakers dedicated to telling the truth, oftentimes at great risk, 330 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,679 Speaker 9: to make films that teach us, that call out injustice 331 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 9: and aspire us to take action.

They 355 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 11: had the highest rate of women who are in stem careers. 356 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 11: We're kicking women out of the military, out of university. 357 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 11: We're saying that DEI means women can't be hired for 358 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 11: high positions in the sciences. So we're we're marginally better, 359 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 11: and we're doing it for Christianity. They're doing it for Islam. Right, 360 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 11: So it's like we don't get told those things because 361 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 11: it would take it would it would take away the 362 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 11: kind of American exceptionalism narrative. 363 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: Okay, you want to you want to break that down 364 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: for me.

I'm like, okay, I would be interested in 371 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 10: what sources and what facts you have to back up 372 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 10: what you're saying, because to say that there's the death 373 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 10: penalty for getting abortion, if you want to kill your baby, 374 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 10: there are plenty of places you can do it. There's 375 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 10: a lot of say people out there, and there's a 376 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 10: lot of states that let you do it. 377 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: So have a A Supreme Court codified the use of 378 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: the abortion pill, which is from basically the first trimester, 379 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: so let's start there. That's nationwide. That's why it's not 380 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 1: the issue that it once was. To say that fast, 381 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: oh my god, I said, I want to make sure 382 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: that it's rare and legal, legal and rare. 383 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 2: And I would say early the word early to yeah. 384 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 10: Now they're like, hey, if your kid's walking, you know, 385 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,360 Speaker 10: it's still okay you to take them out. I mean 386 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 10: the idea that you can have a nine month child healthy, 387 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 10: alive next to you on the table, and you're allowed 388 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 10: to kill it. That's not abortion, that's murder. 389 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 6: Guys. 390 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 2: That is a child. That isn't fanticide. 391 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: That is a child that is capable of living outside 392 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: the womb on its own. But it doesn't matter that, 393 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: just the absurd claims. And here's the thing. I you know, 394 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: I've spent a little bit of time, not much, but 395 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 1: a little, and you watch these people that spread these 396 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: these falsehoods and these conspiracies, and here's the sick part. 397 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,719 Speaker 1: They're actually very good at spreading their lives. I know 398 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: that may sound a little contradictory. They make it so 399 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: convincing that if you are in I'll use Russia's term, 400 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: I'll steal it from him, a low information voter, a 401 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 1: low information person. Overall, you're going to believe the lie, 402 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 1: the conspiracy theory, and they're going to be really convincing 403 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:31,199 Speaker 1: selling it to you. And that's the scary part. All right, 404 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: let's get to our busy phones. Jim and Texas. God 405 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:35,439 Speaker 1: bless Texas.

This is really for Linda. 410 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 12: You can give up cursing for Lynn. You can give 411 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 12: up cursing altogether. And I'm proof positive that it can 412 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 12: happen because when I left the army in eighty seven, 413 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 12: I had a foul mouth. It was just it was terrible. 414 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 12: And I met my soon to be white and my 415 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 12: buddies will call me up and I'd be on the phone, 416 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 12: and she knew exactly who I was talking to by 417 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 12: the way I was talking, and so I knew I 418 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 12: had to retrain my brain to not curse all the time. 419 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 12: And I was pretty successful at it, and so ended 420 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 12: up working for the SAD Agency here in Texas for 421 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 12: twenty something years and worked with a lady that had 422 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 12: at mouth what I think Linda has, and she surprised 423 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 12: me one day. She goes, I've never heard you curse ever, 424 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 12: no matter what the situation is, I've never heard you curse, 425 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 12: And like, you can do it. It's not that hard. 426 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 12: But Linda, here's support for you. You can do it. 427 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 10: Well, Thank you. I appreciate it. The problem is I 428 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 10: don't want to do it. That's the first that's the 429 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 10: first hurdle. 430 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: Well, here's me, And why have you spent all these 431 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: years proclaiming on this show that you're going to give 432 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: it up for lent, only to fail spectacularly? 433 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 2: Why do we try? 434 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 6: Try? 435 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 10: I want to try for our Lord and Savior. I 436 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 10: just realized that it kind of sucks that I can't, 437 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 10: so I decided to give up something else. 438 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 12: I loved that. 439 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 10: I thought i'd be more successful at. 440 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, you do you hear this song? He's 441 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 2: like a. 442 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 1: Liberal, I'm telling you right now, because she's basically saying 443 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: she has no control over us. All, all right, we're 444 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: moving on. Thanks Jim in Texas. This is just a 445 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: colossal waste of time. Let's say I to Zach in 446 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: South Carolina. Hey, Zach, how are you glad you called? 447 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 9: Hey? 448 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 13: Sean, good talking to you. 449 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 2: Good to talk to you. What's going on? 450 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 13: First off, didn't watch the Oscars, didn't have any interest, 451 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 13: but I tuned into your show regularly. I just want 452 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 13: to make a couple of points today. Something that I 453 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 13: think has been quite overlooked by the mainstream media is 454 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 13: I think nothing our comander in chief does is really 455 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 13: by accident and the Maduro raid and the access to 456 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 13: Venezuelan oil is quite a strategic move from where we're 457 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,439 Speaker 13: standing now that if need be, there's potential that we 458 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 13: have access to that where we wouldn't have had that before. 459 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: I totally agree with you, And this is the beauty 460 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 1: of it all is I think when I Ran is 461 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: all said and done, why do I think there's a 462 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: strong possibility that we will have oil deals with Iran 463 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 1: when all's said and done. I can't predict with the 464 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 1: pinpoint certainty, but I'm hoping you know that that happens. 465 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 13: I agree with you there, and I think there's potential 466 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 13: for a economic boom after this war that is going 467 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 13: to be on something that we haven't seen in many years. 468 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, well you think that what's an unforeseen what? 469 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 13: I think we're gonna uh, the economy is going to boom, 470 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 13: and we're there's going to be a period of time 471 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 13: time we see an abundance. 472 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 1: Of I don't think it's unforeseen. I think it's inevitable. 473 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 1: I do, and I hope it happens sooner than later. 474 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 1: I hope this gets wrapped up sooner than later. It's 475 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: the fact that people any if I would have told 476 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 1: anybody that, you know, seventeen days into this we would 477 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: be where we are today, would you have taken this outcome? 478 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: Because and this is like if you start caring World 479 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: War one, world War two, if you know, if you 480 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 1: look at Afghanistan and a Raq, you know, what do 481 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 1: we conclude at the end of that? It was we 482 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: could never fight wars that way? Ever again, you know, 483 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: having kids stepping over IEDs the way they were, they 484 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: didn't have up armored humvies and so on and so forth. 485 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: And now we now see the next generation of weaponry. 486 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: For those that don't want to spend money on the 487 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: future generations of weaponry, you're making a big mistake because 488 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 1: if we don't do it, our enemies will. And I 489 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 1: just understand that there's evil in the world, as evidence 490 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: by the last one hundred years. You know, look at 491 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: the last centrally alone. And I keep referring to that 492 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: some people. That's why I don't want to argue with 493 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 1: people about the war. I'm like, Okay, you have your views, 494 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 1: I'm done talking to you. If you don't think that 495 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: it was imperative to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons. 496 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,679 Speaker 1: I don't really have any room to have a conversation 497 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,719 Speaker 1: with you because it's that simple. To me, it's that basic, 498 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: it's that fundamental. Is it in our best interest to 499 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 1: do it now? While we could do it? It's not. 500 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: War is never a great option, but sometimes your enemy 501 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 1: gives you no choice. Do you want to act now 502 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 1: or later? You see it the same. 503 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 13: Way, absolutely, And I think one thing for that. As 504 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 13: you said, we've been highly highly successful thus far, and 505 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 13: one of the only things that has been less successful 506 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,479 Speaker 13: is the Iranian people rising up to overthrow the regime. 507 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 13: But if we step back from it, it makes a 508 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 13: lot of sense when the top contenders to do so. 509 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 13: The ten to twenty thousand Iranians that were killed in 510 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 13: the protests were the most had the most zeal to 511 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 13: pursue the overthrow of the government. So that population has 512 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 13: been obviously thin significantly. 513 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,959 Speaker 2: And yeah, definitely, don't you know. 514 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: And I just pray that this continues to go as 515 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: well as possible. Every human life is imployed. But when 516 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: you're looking at the potential down the road, and we 517 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: have to see down the road, I mean, Donald Trump 518 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 1: as president doesn't have the luxury to ignore what a 519 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: potentially nuclear armed Duran looks like for your children and grandchildren, 520 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: and the threat that it would the existential threat that 521 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: it would be to America. And so he's got to 522 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: make the hard decisions, and he does it based on intelligence, 523 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,120 Speaker 1: based on his conversations with our brave men and women 524 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 1: in the military. Appreciate it, my friend. I quick break 525 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: right back.

Dina, it's all yours, go 536 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 2: for it. 537 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 14: That's all right, Hey, Sean. I wanted to let you 538 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 14: know that I agree with Linda as far as you 539 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 14: good grief purchasing a dog. There's nine hundred and six 540 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 14: thousand dogs and cats ethanized every year. There's six point 541 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 14: two million that enter the shelter, and a lot of 542 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 14: them don't make it out. But as for somebody that's 543 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 14: been doing rescue for ten years, I can tell you 544 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 14: that there's a lot of joy and rescuing the dog 545 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 14: and from the shelter. 546 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: By the way, I've done that once in my life. Well, 547 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: your dog, I've donated. I've donated to shelters in my life. 548 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: But there's one particular dog that I really wanted. It 549 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: is the most insanely cute dog in the world. And 550 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: at the right time, I will introduce my new dog 551 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: to you. But I shouldn't get excoriated because this dog 552 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: was born too. I didn't buy a dog that you know, 553 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: I said, please breed this dog. I didn't do it 554 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: that way. I just it was for sale and I 555 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: bought it. 556 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 14: I understand that. But if you would have gone to 557 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 14: the rescue page for that breed, you would have probably 558 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 14: found your breed that needs to be rescued. 559 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: Also, why do I get criticized because this dog needs 560 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: a home too. 561 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 14: I just wanted to agree with Linda. 562 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 2: I appreciate you want to annoying me like Linda does. 563 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 2: Great are gonna I tell you're having a great show. 564 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 2: That's ha ha ha you two for two in one hour. 565 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: Good for you, all right, listen if if you find 566 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: yourself still struggling under the Biden Harris economy, things thankfully 567 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: are turning around. I know things are a little tougher 568 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: gas prices, although there's still about six cents a gallon 569 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: lower than there were a year ago
