1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,880 Speaker 1: All right, glad you with us three hundred one days. 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: You we the American people, you get the finals, say yeah, 3 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: a tipping point election, that's an understatement. All right, So 4 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:12,440 Speaker 1: just a few moments ago, we're going to start it 5 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: at its beginning, the President in the Oval office, Prime 6 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 1: Minister of Greece with him, addressing the issues involved with 7 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:25,800 Speaker 1: the killing of Solomony, the impeachment, Hoaks, etc. Let's listen in. Yeah, 8 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 1: A lot of questions are being asked in Washington and 9 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: across America about what evidence you had the Kasam Solomoni 10 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 1: was planning attacks against American targets. What can you tell 11 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,520 Speaker 1: us about what you knew prior to order the attack? Well, 12 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: number one, I knew the past. His past was horrible. 13 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: He was a terrorist. He was so designated by President Obama, 14 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: as you know, and he wasn't even supposed to be 15 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: outside of his own country. He was so right there. 16 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: But that's in a way the least of it. We 17 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: had an attack very recently that he was in charge 18 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: of where we had people horribly wounded dead. In fact, 19 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,279 Speaker 1: the number now as of this morning, I believe it's 20 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: too dead. And that was he was traveling with the 21 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: head of Hezbollah. They weren't there to discuss a vacation. 22 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: They weren't there to go to a nice resort someplace 23 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: in Baghdad. They were there to discuss bad business. And 24 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 1: we saved a lot of lives by terminating his life. 25 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: A lot of lives have saved. They were planning something, 26 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: and you're going to be hearing about it, or at 27 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: least various people in Congress are going to be hearing 28 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: about it tomorrow. Our Secretary of State covered it very 29 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 1: well a little while ago. I saw him, saw his 30 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: news conference, Mike, and if you want to mention a 31 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 1: couple of things in addition to what ives here said. 32 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: But we had tremendous information. We've been following him for 33 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: a long time, and we followed his path for those 34 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: three days, and they were not good stops. We didn't 35 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,279 Speaker 1: like where he was stopping. They were not good stops. 36 00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: We saved a lot of lives, Mike, indicating there was 37 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: active plotting that put American lives the arrest and I'm confident, 38 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: I think the President's confident too, that the actions of 39 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: the president took saved American lives, saved lives of Iraqi Muslims, 40 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: as well. It was the right thing to do, and 41 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: our Department Offense did an excellent job executing the mission. 42 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: And as you know, he killed at least six hundred 43 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 1: and Native Americans put the number is much higher than that. 44 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,799 Speaker 1: He's also very much roadside bombs and all of the 45 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: horrible explosives that you see. He was a big believer 46 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: and sent him everywhere. He was somebody that we did ourselves. 47 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 1: That we did a lot of countries a big favor, 48 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: and I've been I've been hearing from countries they were 49 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: extremely happy with what we did. And if you look 50 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: inside Iran itself, there were plenty of those leaders that 51 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 1: were happy because they feared him and didn't like him 52 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 1: in many cases. Could you also to clear up, mister President, 53 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: whether Irani and cultural sites would be on any future 54 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: target less? Well, as I said yesterday, it was very interesting. 55 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: Are allowed to kill our people, They're allowed to maim 56 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: our people, They're allowed to blow up everything that we have, 57 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: and there's nothing that stops him. And we are, according 58 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: to various laws, supposed to be very careful with their 59 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: cultural heritage. And you know what, if that's what the laws, 60 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 1: I like to obey the law but think of it. 61 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: They kill our people, they blow up our people, then 62 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: we have to be very gentle with their cultural institutions. 63 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 1: But I'm okay with it. It's okay with me. I 64 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: will say this. If Iran does anything that they shouldn't 65 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: be doing, they're going to be suffering the consequences and 66 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: very strongly in alligation. Well, don't forget. In our case 67 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: it was retaliation because they were there first, they killed. Look, 68 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: I don't have to talk about him for eighteen to 69 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: twenty years. He was a monster. But just in the 70 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: very short period of time, two people dead, people badly injured, 71 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: and then before that there were other attacks, and look 72 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: at what he was planning. So that'll be discussed tomorrow morning. 73 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: Right now it's classified, and that'll be discussed tomorrow with 74 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: Mike Pompeo and the Joint chiefs of Staff. Has prepared 75 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: for attack. We're prepared. We're totally prepared, and likewise, we're 76 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: prepared to attack if we have to as retribution. Mister 77 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: President of Iran's leader said that any response to the 78 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: ceremony of killing would be quote proportionate. What would the 79 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: United States do when the event of any uranios so again, John, 80 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: if you look at what's going on, hours was an attack. 81 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: Based on what they did. We weren't the first one out. 82 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: He killed an American. Now two people are dead from 83 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: the same attack, and some people very badly wounded. And 84 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: that was one of his smaller endeavors. You look over 85 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: his past, his past, he's been called a monster, and 86 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: he was a monster, and he's no longer a monster. 87 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: He's dead, and that's a good thing for a lot 88 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: of countries. And he was planning a very big attack 89 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: and a very bad attack for us and other people, 90 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: and we stopped him. And I don't think anybody can 91 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: complain about it. I don't hear too many people other 92 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: than politicians who are trying to win the presidency. Those 93 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: are the ones that are complaining. But I don't hear 94 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: anybody else complaining. You a monster. But well, that's everybody 95 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 1: to each his own I mean, I disagree one hundred percent, 96 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: and I'm sure he does too, but he has a 97 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: public to take care of it. I guess that's for 98 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 1: his own reason. But I'm actually surprised to hear that. 99 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: But that's okay, I'm government say it. I'm going to 100 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: make a fee with Greece. So Greece and I and 101 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: my people, and we have a whole group of people. 102 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: And as you see, they've brought a lot of great 103 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: representatives from Greece that we've been dealing with. We have 104 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 1: a tremendous Greek population, over three million people, as I 105 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 1: understand it, that's fantastic. I think, I know, I really 106 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: feel I know most of them. I think I know 107 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: all of them, come to think of it, but it's 108 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: a great population. In the United States, we're going to 109 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: be meeting, we're going to be talking, we're going to 110 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 1: be negotiating, and we're going to be making a lot 111 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: of deals. Let we have a really great relationship with 112 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: Let me add something to that. Greece is interested as 113 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: a president in participating in the F thirty five program. 114 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: As you know, we are already upgrading our F sixteens. Yeah, 115 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: and that program will be completed in twenty twenty three, 116 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. So we're very much interested in participating 117 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: in the F thirty five program after that. And I'm 118 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 1: sure that the US will take into consideration the fact 119 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: that this country is coming out of an economic crisis 120 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: in terms of structuring the program. In the best possible 121 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: way for my country. That's true. And you know they 122 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: just signed a very big renovation of existing aircraft. They 123 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: have great aircraft, but it's gotten a little bit tired 124 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: and they've done a renovation that's going to bring it 125 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: up to brand new and we look forward to doing that. 126 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: A couple of our great companies are doing it. How 127 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: a possibility, it's not something people mind. Actually, well, it's 128 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: something that I want to I mean, eventually, they have 129 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: to be able to defend themselves and take care of themselves, 130 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: and it's something ultimately that I want to see. We 131 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: don't want to be there forever. We want to be 132 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: able to get out. I didn't want to be there 133 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: in the first place, to be honest, and everybody knows that. 134 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: That was when I was a civilian. I said it. 135 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: But we were there and they made a decision, and 136 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: I disagreed with that decision very strongly. But we're there now. 137 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: We've done a great job. We've gotten rid of the caliphate. 138 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: One hundred percent of the caliphate is gone, and which 139 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: is Isis. We have thousands of ISIS prisoners that we're 140 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: keeping right now under lock and key, and we want 141 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: Europe to take many of these prisons because they came 142 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: from Germany, France and other places. Probably a few from 143 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: Greece and Affair as well. None from good. So far, 144 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: you're lucky. You're lucky. But we have a lot of 145 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: We have a lot of people right now in prison 146 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: Isis fighters that are tough fighters, and they are where 147 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: they should be. So I think we've done a fantastic job. 148 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: But eventually we want to be able to let Iraq 149 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: run its own affairs, and that's very important. So at 150 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: some point we want to get out, but this isn't 151 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: the right point. The other thing is if we do 152 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: get out, you know, we've spent a tremendous amount of 153 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: money on building airports and building it's one of the 154 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: largest embassies we have in the world, and we want 155 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: to be reimbursed for the various costs that we have 156 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: had and they're very significant. But we'll work something out, 157 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: and I talk sanctions, but I'm only talking sanctions if 158 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 1: we're not treated with respect. We have to be treated 159 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: with respect we deserve. I'll tell you what. I'll tell 160 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: you with what we did with what excuse me, wait, wait, 161 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: wait one second. With what we did with isis and 162 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 1: this was done during my administration because it was a 163 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,959 Speaker 1: mess before we got here. With what we did with 164 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: isis we've done the Middle East and we've done a 165 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: lot of other countries a tremendous favor. Yeah, go ahead 166 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: with Burtish problem. Gag in Lydia instant please. And I 167 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: knew we're in live to talk to you. We are 168 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: talking to him and we're talking to Yeah, we're talking 169 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: to when you're talking about Olivia. We're discussing with President Rowan, 170 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: We're discussing with many other countries. I just spoke with 171 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: the Chancellor of Germany with Angela and we talked about 172 00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 1: that subject specifically Olibya, what's going on. We'll be talking Russia. 173 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: They are involved. A lot of countries are involved with 174 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 1: respect to Libya, and it's right now a mess. But 175 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: there are a lot of countries and they all want 176 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: to know where we stand, and they do now know 177 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,559 Speaker 1: where we stand. We have a very distinctive stand and 178 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 1: we have meetings set up and we're going to see 179 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: if we can work out some kind of a plan 180 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 1: for peace. I think it's important one point, one one 181 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: point on this issue. I think it is important to 182 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: point out that the agreement signed between Turkey and Libya 183 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: infringe upon greeces sovereign rights and essentially cause a great 184 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: concern and instability in a region which is already highly problematic. 185 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: So we'd be very much looking to go support to 186 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: make sure that these types of provocative agreements are not 187 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: being put into place. And I think we should refrain 188 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 1: in general in the Eastern Mediterranean for any sort of 189 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: activity that inflames passions and that doesn't, you know, promote 190 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: regional peace and secure. So we'll be very much looking 191 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: forward to your goal support on this issue because it 192 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: is a very important issue to my country, Christer President. 193 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: The Iraqi government says it expects US forces to leave 194 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: the country after the letter that it received. General Mark 195 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: Milly said, by mistake yesterday, what do you say to 196 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: the Iraqi government about the possibility of US forces leaving 197 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: based on that letter? Well, I don't know. I think 198 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: about that letter. The letter was sent, and I understand 199 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: it was an unsigned letter, so I could maybe let 200 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: Mike speak to it. I don't know if that letter 201 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: was a hoax or was it unsigned or what it 202 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 1: wasn't the Iraqi government is saying they're taking you at 203 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: the word they expect us forces complete. Well, I think 204 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: it's the worst thing that could happen to Iraq if 205 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: we leave, that would mean that Iran would have a 206 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: much bigger foothould and the people of Iraq do not 207 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: want to see a Ran running the company that the country. 208 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: That I can tell you, So we'll see how it 209 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: all works out. I know it's going to work out 210 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: well for us because at some point we want to 211 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: be able to get out. We want to bring our 212 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: soldiers back home. I will say that we have had 213 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: tremendous support from the people of Iraq appreciating what we've done, 214 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: and they don't want to see Iran go into Iraq, 215 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: but their neighbors and over a period of years, something 216 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: will happen. We'll see what that is. But the what 217 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: was said yesterday I didn't know about I really don't 218 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: know about it. What is that, Mike? What exactly? What's 219 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: the un and the media knew that was, but they 220 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: don't want to. Yeah, the Iraqi people understand that we're 221 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: there to help them stand up their sovereign. The Iraqi 222 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 1: people were not happy when the suggestion was made yesterday 223 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: that we were thinking about leaving at some point they 224 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: were not happy, but at some point we will want 225 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: to leave. See you go ahead. But trial, yeah, whatever 226 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: it is. It's a hoax. The impeachment is a big hoax. 227 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: It's a it's become a laughing stock all over the world. 228 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: There was nothing done wrong. The two articles that were 229 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: sent are not even serious, and by the way, they're 230 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: not a crime. The Republicans voted approximately one hundred and 231 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: ninety six to nothing. This was not supposed to be partisan. 232 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: It was never meant that way by as they would say, 233 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: the founders. So it's turned out to be a totally 234 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,199 Speaker 1: partisan hoax, which hunt and frankly, it's been going on 235 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 1: from before I came down the escalator with our great 236 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: first Lady. I mean, this has gone on for three 237 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: years and probably longer than that. And it'll be very 238 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: interesting when the final tabulation is set and when the 239 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: facts are released, because a lot of people are working 240 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: on those facts right now. It's a big deal. It's 241 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: in many ways, the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on our country. 242 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: It's one of the great hoaxes ever. It started with 243 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 1: an illegue document that turned out to be false. The 244 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: fake document that you know so well, the dossier as 245 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: they call it, and it went on from there. It 246 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: was set up by a bunch of dirty cups and 247 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 1: others working with all Right, there's the President with the 248 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: Prime Minister of Greece inside the Oval office. It's ending 249 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: there in a second. We're on a little bit of 250 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: a time crunch here. You know what, nobody speaks better 251 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: for the president than the President himself. We'll take a break, 252 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: we'll come back, we'll react to that. We got a 253 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: lot of news to get to on both the big 254 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: issues of the day, the death and reaction of the 255 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: predictable reaction of the mob and Democrats over Solomony, the 256 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: impeachment disaster unfolding for Pelosi, and much more.

I know different opening monologue. It is 262 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: so it is, he's so dead on accurate, and you 263 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: know it's just different. It's I wouldn't want to be 264 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: the spokesperson for Donald Trump big as you can't and 265 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: that job a press secretary is just a different position.

David shown the attorney, the legality of the 302 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: actions we took in against Solomoni. You know one thing 303 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: I do want to be very clear about here, in 304 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: a pretty strong message to a rand. Just to bring 305 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: you up to speed, we now have deployed six nuclear 306 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 1: capable B fifty two bombers. They're right there in the 307 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: Middle East, sent by our Pentagon heavy bombers to a 308 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 1: British base in the Indian Ocean. And these are nuclear 309 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: capable bombers at Diego, Garcia, within striking distance of the 310 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: Persian Gulf, but perhaps maybe out of range of Iranian missiles, 311 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: but we're not so sure. But obviously the president, as 312 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: he said in his press conference in the Oval Office 313 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: with the Prime Minister of Greece, yeah, we're prepared for everything. Now. Well, 314 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: it's really frustrating to me, and this has developed this 315 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 1: idea that there's only two options here if you take 316 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: out solomony, which everybody admits. I mean for David Petraeus 317 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 1: to say what he said that this was bigger than 318 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: been lauding them. Now, Baghdaddy is a big deal. Now 319 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: if you follow the events in the Middle East and 320 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 1: you understand the Cood forces of Iran, their elite fighting forces, 321 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: and you understand that this guy goes back to the 322 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: foundation of the forming of his Bolah and the Party 323 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 1: of God, the terrorist organization responsible for the deaths of 324 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 1: thousands and thousands of people. And you know, none of 325 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 1: this should be really hard to understand. It's not that 326 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: difficult to know that this is a huge, huge step 327 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: forward to make in the world a safer place with 328 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 1: all the evil that we know exists in it. We 329 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 1: are talking about the number one state sponsors of terrorism 330 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: around the globe. Yeah, and they had one hundred and 331 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: fifty billion in Obama Biden dollars to use to advance 332 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: their sick, twisted, ugly ideology and regime goals and the 333 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: desire for hegemony in the Middle East. We know all 334 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 1: the proxy wars they fight, We know the funding of 335 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 1: terrorism that's killing so many people. We know they killed 336 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: all these Americans in Iraq. We know that they've been 337 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 1: trying to disrupt the lifeblood of the world's energy supply, 338 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: oil by taking tanker's hostage in the narrow Straits of 339 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: Horn moves, hitting the Saudiast unprovoked and thinking they can 340 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: get away with it, never mind shooting out of the 341 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: air American drones. But once Americans were killed, as we 342 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: know happened on the twenty seventh of December and other 343 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: military injured, that was the line in the sand. The 344 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 1: President drew look he could. Frankly, he's shown more restraint 345 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: than I think I might have shown if I was 346 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: ever in that position. You shoot out an American drone, 347 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: you better expect this is going to be the consequence 348 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,960 Speaker 1: of that. And we now have the Defense secretaries come 349 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: out today confirming it was days away from an attack, 350 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: our intelligence saying that we were days away from a 351 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: major attack. And obviously it was going to be led 352 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: by Solomani. Remember he's the head of the Kud's forces 353 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: of Iran. He was in Baghdad airport by the way. Interestingly, 354 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: I'm told he always flew commercial. Now you might think 355 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: it's dumb, but it's not that dumb because he probably 356 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: knows that, even though we knew he's on the plane, 357 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,679 Speaker 1: that we're less likely to take the plane out of 358 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: the sky because America actually puts value on human life. 359 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: It's like we see all the time, you know, these 360 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: rockets being fired into Israel from Gaza. Where do they 361 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 1: fire them from hospitals and schools? Why do they do that? 362 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: It makes that much more difficult for the Israelis that 363 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 1: care about human life to fight back, so they use 364 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: them as shields part of their tactics. But you know 365 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: the idea that you only have two options here, Well, 366 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: you either do nothing because otherwise you're gonna really tick 367 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: them off and they might retaliate. Well, they've been at 368 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 1: war with US since nineteen seventy nine. That argument is ridiculous. 369 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: They've been at war with US nine eleven Commissioner report. 370 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 1: They were at war with us. We weren't at war 371 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: with them. Now, war defined does not necessarily mean boots 372 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: on the ground in Iran. As a matter of fact, 373 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: I'm dead set against that, and nor do I think 374 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 1: it's even necessary at any point here. Let's assume they're 375 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: stupid enough to retaliate. Okay, Well, what have I been 376 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: advocating after, of course, the politicizing of wars in Vietnam 377 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: and Iraq and Afghanistan. We start wars, we send our 378 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: national treasure to go fight them, risk their lives, die 379 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: in these wars, lose their limbs in these wars, come 380 00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 1: back disfigured from these wars. And then Washington and says, 381 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: never mind, that's why we can't do this anymore. To 382 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: our fighting force, the greatest fighting force on the face 383 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: of the earth, you know, and those that are saying, well, Hannahy, 384 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: you've been critical. You've been critical of our intelligence community 385 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: for three years. Linda, how many times have I made 386 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 1: the distinction between the ninety nine percent of the world's 387 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 1: greatest intelligence community and the one percent. I've gone out 388 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: of my I've bent over backwards to make sure that 389 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: people understand I appreciate the good work of our intelligence services. 390 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 1: And you brought your family on the air, and I 391 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: brought my family on the air. That's correct, the two 392 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: deity I was not deity. The deity with the two 393 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: FBI guys. All my families in law enforcement got it 394 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: out of my way. And well, well now you're gonna believe. Yes, 395 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: our intelligence they they followed this guy, tracked them, and 396 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 1: they had them right in their sights, and they took 397 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: the shot. And the world's better off. But does that mean, well, 398 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: now it's boots on the ground. Another another prolonged, protracted 399 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 1: conflict with President said today he's not going to do 400 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: that now. The options available and what I have been 401 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 1: saying for a long time, the next generation of weaponry, 402 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 1: both offensive and defensive. I liked the idea, and it 403 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: happened in this That's how we beat the Caliphate back 404 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 1: in Syria. And we did it by pushing buttons with 405 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: unmanned drones and other means, and we pushed, we literally 406 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,400 Speaker 1: wiped out the caliphate. Oh, that could have happened under Obama. Now, 407 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:42,199 Speaker 1: Obama had these rules of engagement that put innocent people 408 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: in jail that we've talked at, like Clint Lorentz for example, 409 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: and I love it. You know, well you can't fire 410 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: until fired, U pop, but you got two seconds to 411 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 1: make up your mind if it's the right moment of fire. 412 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: That's not a good option for military people. Unfortunately, when 413 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: you start wars and killed people, that's why you know 414 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 1: the outrage. Well, the president said he might take out 415 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 1: some of the cultural sites. Now the President addressed that 416 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: in his press conference today, goes, you know, it's interesting 417 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: they kill Americans and we're like ben out of shape 418 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: over cultural sites but apparently illegal. He said, I'm no, 419 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: I like to obey the law. We'll do it the 420 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: right way, but when you really think deeply about it, 421 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: I'm more concerned about American lives here. And it's like, Wow, 422 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: your priorities are screwed up some of these people, and 423 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: you know, if can we fight every war. No, but 424 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 1: if you shoot out our drones, if you take hostage 425 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 1: the world's oil supply and try to influence the supply 426 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: of the world's oil, the lifeblood of every economy, and 427 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: you try to take hostage these tankers in the Straits 428 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: of hor moves and you hit the Saudies for no reason. 429 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: I hate the Saudies myself. I've been the most outspoken 430 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 1: against Saudi Arabia and Sharia law anybody I know on 431 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 1: radio or TV. You don't get to kill Americans in 432 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: Iraq and not expect to get him back. Remember those 433 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: people inside that Baghdad embassy, they were our fellow Americans. 434 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 1: Their lives were in peril, their lives were in jeopardy. 435 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: The President said, Benghazi not happening on my watch. Well, 436 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: what the hell do you think that that Solomani with 437 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: the leader of Hezbola was doing. You think he was 438 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: there to pick out a time share? I don't think so. 439 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: So the idea that we're going to allow them to 440 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: kill Americans abroad and American interests abroad, that's not an 441 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: acceptable option for me. Now they know there's a new 442 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,959 Speaker 1: sheriff in town, and you're saying, well, what if they 443 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 1: were taliate. But my answer is, well, they've got three 444 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: huge refineries in Iran, and I'm betting I don't know 445 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 1: for sure, but I'm betting that our military has the 446 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 1: capability of wiping those suckers out in ten seconds flat. 447 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 1: They know what they're doing. We have the best of 448 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 1: the best, and we got to continue to develop that 449 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: next generation of weaponry so that we can't let Washington 450 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: swamp creatures send our kids to war, put them on 451 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: the battlefield and then say never mind, or put handcuffs 452 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 1: on them like Obama and Biden did, or say, oh, 453 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: let's bribe the dictators, let's pride the Mullahs of Iran. 454 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: How much goodwill did that bias? Because that idiotic deal 455 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: literally only was lasting ten years, never had any place 456 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:38,360 Speaker 1: anytime inspections, no American inspectors at all. It's expiring now anyway, 457 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: So it's meaningless because they never stopped the nuclear program 458 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: to begin with. The naivea tay of those appeasers. Now, 459 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: I would think the nuclear sights would probably be a 460 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 1: target that the president would be looking at. I'm guessing 461 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: I have no knowledge of what the President's going to 462 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: do in spite of fake news CNN claiming all the 463 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: time that I have you know, we actually do work 464 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 1: in real news. Here. We proved in the last three 465 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 1: years we were right. They were wrong. They lied, they 466 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: spewed lies, they advanced conspiracy theories. They they went with 467 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 1: the biggest hulks ever. There's you know, they have to 468 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 1: ignore quid pro quo Joe and zero experience hunter and 469 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: say the president's call with Ukraine that never mentioned money. 470 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: The five meetings after that never discussed money or aid 471 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 1: in any way, shape, manner, or form. But that's what 472 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 1: they're sticking to. Impeach a president and say if the 473 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: president does what every other president has done and invoke 474 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 1: executive privilege so he can get real advice from real 475 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 1: top advisors, somehow we're gonna impeach him for that. This 476 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: is sick. You know. There's there's articles out one of 477 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 1: us on stripes dot com, a military website. They go 478 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:57,439 Speaker 1: into great detail about the brutality of Solo Money and 479 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 1: his cud's forces and how US soldier. They described one 480 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: particular incident with this guy, Brian Castner's his name. He 481 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: combs over an armored vehicle mostly intact. Aside from entry 482 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:15,479 Speaker 1: and exit holes tipped with you know, molten copper that 483 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: had since cold. And I'm reading directly from the piece. 484 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: The US soldiers who had been inside had already been 485 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: metavac near Kirkuk in the summer two thousand and six, 486 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,719 Speaker 1: leaving the Air Force bomb technician along with the vehicle 487 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 1: pulls a blood simmered under the Iraqi sun near the 488 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: one soldier near. Listen to this near what what? What 489 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: one soldier left behind? Listen to this? There was still 490 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: one foot left in the hum v Castner said again 491 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: Stripes dot com. The targeted US killing of Solomani, the 492 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: head of the Iranian Elague Cuds Force, as heightened tensions 493 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: with the US and Iran, but it also resurfaced solo 494 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: Amani's legacy in Iraq, where sophisticated weapons and tactics that 495 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: he oversaw menaced US troops. It would be our fellow citizens, 496 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: our family, where US troops leaving a trail of dead 497 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: and wounded US service members. The vehicle, the Castor inspected, 498 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: was eviscerated by an explosively formed e FP, an explosively 499 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: formed penetrator. It's a weapon of Iranian engineering, salted across 500 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: the battlefields whatever I ran backshite militias and fighters had gathered, 501 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 1: such as Kirkuk and other cities in Baghdad. The weapons 502 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: compact but potent, are deployed against armored vehicles in a 503 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: similar way to traditional IEDs, but the Iranian ones are 504 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: much deadlier, more effective, Castner said, shaped like a coffee can, 505 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: but a little bit smaller, slightly conca and the device 506 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: is packed with plastic explosives that turn a copper plate 507 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: into a molten slugs that barrel through several inches of armors, 508 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: sending molten shreds tumbling through the bodies and vehicle parts. 509 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: It really bad, he said, and by far the most 510 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: dreaded explosive device type he encountered. Because of their deadly efficiency. 511 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: These EFPs killed hundreds of Americans. Well, that would be 512 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: Solomoni's cut force, because they provided the article goes on 513 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: the training and logistics to militants inter rack, along with 514 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: the far reaching EFP supply routes and factories inside the country. 515 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: Now you're gonna tell me that this guy deserved to 516 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: pass because he did that to our American soldiers. And 517 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: what ad Obama Biden? They gave him one hundred and 518 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: fifty billion. I'm sorry, I don't buy into the mindset, 519 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: the thinking, the logic, the mentality here, and I'm saying 520 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 1: no ground war, no troops, no boots on the ground, 521 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: no more banging on doors. The Iranians, if they decide 522 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: retribution is their path of choice, then the president has 523 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: better options based on new advanced military weaponry and technology. 524 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: We ought to use it, and we can take down 525 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: their economy, probably with three powerful strikes just of their 526 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 1: three big refineries. I prefer that method. I prefer we 527 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: never have to send kids ever. The Iranian people they 528 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: want regime chains, that's going to be up to them. 529 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 1: They want to go fight, they can go fight. We 530 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: can find the resistance, maybe get them some weaponry so 531 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: they can win. But short of that, we're just saying, 532 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: you don't get to shoot our drones out. You don't 533 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 1: get to disrupt the world's oil supply. You don't get 534 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: to take tankers hostage. You don't get to kill Americans, 535 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: you don't orchestrate attacks on our embassy. You don't get 536 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: to fund terror is in worldwide and fight proxy wars 537 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 1: and take over the entire region and not expect us 538 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 1: to hit back. Those days are over. The days of 539 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: bribing Mullah's are over. The Benghazi Democrats days are doing 540 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: nothing is over. This isn't that complicated, And no, I 541 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: don't support the ground war. What has happened here, I 542 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: think is frankly, that we lost the element of deterrence, 543 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: the component deterrence that was seen as American will. So 544 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 1: ultimately the President peers to have decided that it was 545 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: necessary to take an action to shore up deterrence to 546 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: show that we were not going to accept it. I 547 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: think the administration understands that there's a serious risk of 548 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 1: consequences here. I think they understand that it's unlikely that 549 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: the Iranian regime is going to now come hand in 550 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: hand to the negotiating table. But the presidents showed restraint 551 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 1: and he put a red line out this Andra. He said, 552 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 1: look at it. If you kill Americans, then I'm going 553 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: to respond. And when not took place, this president responded 554 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 1: and David Betrance, by the way, those were the general's 555 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 1: speaking out. Jackeen Wesley Clark, even not a big fan 556 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: of mine over the years, saying what we've all known, 557 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: what we've all said, we've gone over now the evil 558 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: of who Solomony was. You know, the idea that we're 559 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 1: just we're just gonna let this guy shoot drones out 560 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: of the air, take tankers hostage in the Straits of 561 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 1: hor moves upset and disrupt the world's oil supply so 562 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,959 Speaker 1: they can benefit, hit the Saudia's oil fields so they 563 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: get a higher profit for themselves. Killing Americans in Iraq 564 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 1: with such evil brutality as I've been describing, orchestrating the 565 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: attacks on our embassy, funding terrorism worldwide and fighting proxy 566 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: wars all across the globe. And oh, we're not going 567 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: to hit them because he might get mad. Yeah, well 568 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 1: we ought to be mad. We have a right to 569 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: defend and our American citizens abroad and our interest abroad. 570 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: That is something the world needs to understand. That's the 571 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:13,720 Speaker 1: way it works. Now. The Democrats politically, they're just acting 572 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: as dumb as they always do. And now the President 573 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:21,359 Speaker 1: didn't have the legal action to do this. That's not 574 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:26,319 Speaker 1: true either. They said nothing, not a word when Obama 575 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: dropped bombs in Syria and elsewhere twenty eight hundred times. 576 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:37,439 Speaker 1: It's just you know, more phony feigned selective moral outrage, 577 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 1: and the American people have had it and in many 578 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: ways they again continue to make the case why Donald 579 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 1: Trump should be reelected in three hundred and one days anyway. 580 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: Joining us now, Greg Jared, author of the bestseller witch Hunt, 581 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,320 Speaker 1: New York Times bestseller, David Shone, civil liberties attorney, formed 582 00:34:55,360 --> 00:35:00,320 Speaker 1: a board member with the Alabama Civil Liberties Union. Welcome 583 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: both of you, Greg Jarrett, you wrote a great column 584 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: about this, absolutely positively, and every other legal mind I know, Dershowitz, 585 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,280 Speaker 1: our colleague David Shone here all agree with you. President 586 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 1: had the constitutional authority to act, and he will have 587 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:18,879 Speaker 1: the authority to act further should he need to. It's true. 588 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 1: Article two of the Constitution vests broad, substantive authority for 589 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 1: the President of the United States's commander in chief to 590 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 1: deploy military forces overseas to ensure US national security and 591 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: protect American lives. Solomaney was there in Baghdad commanding terror operations. 592 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 1: He was poised to murder Moore. He had the blood 593 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 1: of hundreds of American soldiers on his hands. He was 594 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: going to do more of it. So the President was 595 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 1: not only authorized under Article two, but he also has 596 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: authority by Congress under what's known as the Authorization for 597 00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: you of military force. It was passed by Congress, and 598 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:07,760 Speaker 1: the last three presidents before Trump used it to wage 599 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: campaigns against terrorists since the nine eleven attacks. So the 600 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: President was well within both his constitutional right as well 601 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 1: as his statutory right to do this, all right, David 602 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: shul let's get your overall view on it. From your perspective, 603 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: Not only was the authorized to do it, it was 604 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: strategically brilliant, and I would go so far est to 605 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 1: say he may have had an obligation to do it. 606 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 1: This is a man we know had multiple blood on 607 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 1: his hands from multiple multiple American victims and others. We 608 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,399 Speaker 1: know that his course, his agenda was his flora through 609 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 1: international terrorism to spread Iran's brand of terrorism. We also 610 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 1: know that we probably the president probably would not have 611 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 1: had to have done this but for John Kerry and 612 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 1: President Obama and the horrible, horrible deal they entered into 613 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: with Iran that licensed them with Let me let me 614 00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:59,959 Speaker 1: ask the legal side of that question, because the press 615 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: in an interview with Rush Limbaugh, now he'll be on 616 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 1: TV with me tomorrow night, but he said Kerry likely 617 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: violated the Logan Act, And my reading of it is 618 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 1: he's probably right I think he's under percent right. You know, 619 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 1: this has been going on for quite a while. We 620 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 1: know that Kerry was over there meeting with them a 621 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, since he was Secretary of State. 622 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: I think there's no question based on all the evidence 623 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: we've seen, the violated Logan Act. Listen, look at what's 624 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: happening propaganda wise. Now, Zarif says he wants to take 625 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: it to the American people. His argument the argument of 626 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 1: a terrorist regime, because he focuses on comments like those 627 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: by elan Omar calling this a war crime and AOC 628 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 1: and the rest of the hate squad. It's absurd. I 629 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 1: like the fact that the terrence now exists again because 630 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,840 Speaker 1: they seem to have been acting with impunity and no 631 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:51,320 Speaker 1: fear at all that there'd be any retribution for taking 632 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: tankers hostage. I mean, we all know strategically the Straits 633 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 1: of Hormuz. You're talking about the lifeblood of the world's economy, 634 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: thirty percent of oil passing through those very narrow straits, 635 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: and for them to think they're going to control that, 636 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: Greg Jarrett, that needed to be pushed back in a 637 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: big way. Although for us it is less strategically important 638 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 1: than ever, because this president rightly has now created a 639 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 1: scenario we produce more oil than any other country on 640 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 1: the face of the earth for the first time. That's 641 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: absolutely correct. President Trump showed remarkable restraint. As General Kenud 642 00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:30,240 Speaker 1: pointed out, you played the sound bite the President didn't 643 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: retaliate with military action months ago when a rand shot 644 00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 1: down a US drone, or attacked oil tankers in the 645 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 1: Gulf of Lmont, or fired rockets into an installation housing 646 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 1: American military personnel. But finally, the Iranian terrorists and solimony 647 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: in charge crossed a line when they fired a rocket 648 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: injuring US troops and killing an American contractor. Then they 649 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:03,320 Speaker 1: laid siege to our embassy in Baghdad, threatening American lives. 650 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:10,360 Speaker 1: You know what, people democrats like Nancy Pelosi who accused 651 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,760 Speaker 1: the President of abusing his powers, Chris Murphy, the Senator 652 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 1: in Connecticut, who said it's illegal to do that. What 653 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:22,120 Speaker 1: they fail to comprehend is that Tehran will continue their 654 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:27,360 Speaker 1: reign of terror until a strong leader and nation hours 655 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: stands up to this malignant terrorist regime. And now it's happened. 656 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: Is there a way to quantify the magnitude of this? 657 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: Look for those of us that have that followed Middle 658 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: Eastern news closely. We've known about Solomoni for a long time. 659 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: We've known about the cut forces for a long time. 660 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 1: We know about the improvised explosive devices that they were 661 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 1: planting all over Iraq, specifically target targeting our troops. David Shone, 662 00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: but maybe you know, but betray us to point out, 663 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 1: even after the killing of Baghdaddy and been lauden, he 664 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 1: thinks it's bigger than both of those killings. And he 665 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 1: would know, and he's one hundred percent right. You can 666 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: see from the reaction just how big it was. But 667 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 1: these pundits who were saying, oh, well, we've created a 668 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 1: riskier situation now, or even ran Paul to say, this 669 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 1: is the end of diplomacy. We had no diplomacy. The 670 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 1: president reached out to them, they weren't interested. All they've 671 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: been interested in doing is building their missile arsenal, and 672 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: now we know their nuclear arsenal also. So this was 673 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 1: a huge hit. And by the way, this unpredictability that 674 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 1: many critics raised is an absolute asset. They weren't expecting this. 675 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 1: It took the Iranians by surprise. Sure, he's going to 676 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: be replaced by someone else. But it's a risky world 677 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 1: up there. The President was aware of the risks, he 678 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 1: knew them, and he had to take the size of 679 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: action just as he did. You know, I look at 680 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: the mindset. It's it's what I keep saying. I mean, 681 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:55,799 Speaker 1: I use the one analogy would fit here. You take 682 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 1: out one of the world's worst dictators, and you know 683 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: they can't. They'll never give Donald Trump credit for anything 684 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,239 Speaker 1: because they just hate him. Which then brings us now 685 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 1: to the Nancy Pelosi debacle, which is, Oh, we have 686 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,239 Speaker 1: an urgency. We've got to We've got to impeach him. 687 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 1: We've got to do it quickly, We've got to do 688 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,880 Speaker 1: it now. We've got to get it over. He's a menace, 689 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 1: he's a threat to our country. But we're not going 690 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,320 Speaker 1: to give it to the Senate until the Senate capitulates 691 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 1: to our demands. Greg jarrett I read a document called 692 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:30,919 Speaker 1: the United States Constitution that defines specifically what the role 693 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: of the House is and what the role of the 694 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:34,959 Speaker 1: Senate is, and I don't see that the House gets 695 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,360 Speaker 1: to say and what the Senate does. Nowhere in the 696 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:40,360 Speaker 1: Constitution does it say the speaker of the House gets 697 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:44,680 Speaker 1: to dictate the trial of an impeachment in the US Senate. 698 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: Yet Nancy Pelosi, by withholding the articles, is trying to 699 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 1: extort Mitch McConnell and Republicans in the Senate to conduct 700 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 1: a trial with her approval, her oversight. She has no 701 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 1: constitutional authority for that. She well knows it. She doesn't care. 702 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 1: And so you know, I have long argued that the 703 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 1: Senate ought to consider a motion to dismiss, and now, 704 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: of course they we got the motion by Josh Holly 705 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: and Lindsey Graham will join us on Hannity tonight. He 706 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: has his motion that he's moving forward with. Now, if 707 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: my understanding is, and correct me if I'm wrong, that 708 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 1: the Senate, if they're going to have a rules change, 709 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: the parliamentarian will probably say you need sixty seven votes, 710 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: and they can then overrule the parliamentarian change the rules 711 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:39,280 Speaker 1: with a simple majority of fifty one vote. And I've mistaken. 712 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 1: Now you're you're absolutely right. And you know we're into 713 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,440 Speaker 1: the twentieth day withholding these articles of impeachment, which is 714 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:53,840 Speaker 1: unheard of in previous past presidential impeachments. And so Holly's 715 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 1: idea is we'll give him a twenty five day limit 716 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 1: and if if they don't, then we move to dismiss 717 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 1: for lack of Prosecution's that's what happens in courtrooms across America. 718 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,799 Speaker 1: If a prosecutor brings a case, brings charges, but refuses 719 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:16,280 Speaker 1: to prosecute, there is a motion to dismiss for failure 720 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 1: to prosecute, which is then granted. The same should apply here. 721 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,760 Speaker 1: Sounds a lot like summary judgment to me, David Schoen, 722 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,359 Speaker 1: which happens every day. Is Greg points out that's right, 723 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 1: and then you know, look, these rules have been a 724 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 1: work in progress for many years, but Nancy Pelosi is 725 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 1: a couple hundred years too late. In her argument, Alexander 726 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 1: Hamilton addressed the argument about whether the Senate should have 727 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 1: its the right to have conductive trial, whether it's the 728 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 1: best place. This was all debated for a long time 729 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: in the late seventeen eighties. That's central the sixty five 730 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 1: or sixty six, and when the Constitution was ratified, the 731 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 1: Senate was the spot. Now the Senate sets the rules. 732 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi's out of the picture. She can do this maybe, 733 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 1: you know, don't You wish for something and it comes 734 00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 1: true and you're sorry. After the fact. But listen, either 735 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 1: way you want to play it here. If they want 736 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:03,360 Speaker 1: to go with a trial, and that's what they have, 737 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: I think this trial I'm working on a piece now. 738 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 1: This trial should include people who haven't even been mentioned yet. 739 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,799 Speaker 1: This trial should include as witnesses people like the staffers 740 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 1: for Nadler Normizing Barry Burke. Because the investigating the investigation 741 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 1: is always an issue. We have to see how did 742 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: we get here. We have to look at the integrity 743 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 1: of investigation. Now there should be a witness. Shifts should 744 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 1: be a witness if they want to really go all out, 745 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:30,640 Speaker 1: and that's the way it should be in this case. 746 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 1: The integrity of this process has to be examined. And 747 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 1: by the way, I would put on expert witnesses on 748 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: corruption in the Ukraine because it has been a central 749 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 1: tenet of US policy and international policy, emphasized by experts 750 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: over and over again that funds should not be given 751 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,440 Speaker 1: when there's corruption or even the possibility of corruption. And 752 00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 1: that's what happened here. Funds were withheld based on the corruption. 753 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 1: You look at any of the transcripts, that was the 754 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: central guiding principle. Stay right there. More with Greg Jarrett 755 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 1: David shown toll free. It's eight hundred and nine for 756 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,080 Speaker 1: one Sean. You want to be a part of the program. 757 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:06,640 Speaker 1: A full complete coverage of this breaking all these breaking 758 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 1: stories tonight on Hannity. Right as we continue, our attorneys 759 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: Greg Jarrett and David Shona with us. All Right, so 760 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 1: now we've got and this really kind of took me 761 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 1: off today, and I'm thinking, really, this is how we 762 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 1: treat a thirty three year veteran. Now we know that, 763 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 1: you know, the Inspector General said numerous times that James 764 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 1: Coomey lacked candor, that would be lying. We know that 765 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: even in the case of his number one deputy, former 766 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:39,359 Speaker 1: deputy FBI Director McCabe, that he admits he lied. How 767 00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 1: Come they don't get in trouble now they want to 768 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 1: put a thirty three year combat veteran in jail. Your reaction, 769 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:50,360 Speaker 1: David Shone, Well, I mean, he's outrageous. Listen. I listened 770 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 1: to the clips he played with regarding the Komey's actions 771 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:58,360 Speaker 1: and McCabe and so on. Of course, it was intentional. 772 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,439 Speaker 1: Their misconduct was intentional, There's no question about it. Um 773 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 1: And if it weren't, by the way, then why wouldn't 774 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 1: they have corrected the misstatements and omissions to the file 775 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: as a court as Rule thirteen of that court requires 776 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 1: correct That's right. People have and David, they recommended previously 777 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 1: no prison time. Yeah, well there's just probation. Yeah well 778 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:22,839 Speaker 1: now now now they're out for blood. And meanwhile, all 779 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,839 Speaker 1: these other people, we know why nothing ever happens. Yes, 780 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 1: because this is the way the Muller team has responded 781 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:31,719 Speaker 1: and acted throughout from the beginning of the investigation. It's 782 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 1: a personal thing. Their agenda is personal. That's why these 783 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 1: team members never should have been picked. That's not what 784 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 1: the American public expects when they demand the integrity the 785 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:44,560 Speaker 1: criminal justice system. And of course the things like the 786 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:48,879 Speaker 1: combat record are directly relevant to sentencing. It would be 787 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 1: an absolute outrage, horrendous outrage send a person like this 788 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:54,839 Speaker 1: to prison. We have forty five more seconds. We'll give 789 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:58,759 Speaker 1: it to Greg Jarrett. Here's the FBI report on the 790 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 1: interview with Michael Flynn. The report is stated July nineteen, 791 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen. Throughout the interview, Flynn had a very sure demeanor, 792 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: did not give any indicators of deception. Struck and redacted 793 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 1: FBI agent both had the impression at the time that 794 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:20,680 Speaker 1: Flynn was not lying or did not think he was lying. 795 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 1: That should be enough for this case to be dismissed 796 00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 1: against a distinguished general with a thirty three year record 797 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:32,800 Speaker 1: of defending this country. He did not lie. Yet Muller's 798 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 1: unconscionable team accused him of lying and prosecuted him for 799 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 1: lyne and pressured him to plead guilty. Unbelievable developments. And 800 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: I've got a hope. I've got a hope that they 801 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable to me anyway. Yeah, they didn't even think 802 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 1: he's lying. Greg, Jared David Shoon, thank you both, toll 803 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,359 Speaker 1: free eight hundred and ninety four one. Sean you want 804 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program. Will continue. I 805 00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 1: don't understand the flip flop. I don't understand and why 806 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:02,880 Speaker 1: it was so hard to call him a terrorist, and 807 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: I would just like you to explain so, and I 808 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:07,759 Speaker 1: appreciate it, and I appreciate your kind comments. You know, 809 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,319 Speaker 1: all three of my brothers served in the military, which 810 00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 1: and I believe you. I believeers back and I know 811 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 1: you do too. This isn't a change. They're true. The 812 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 1: question is what is the response that the President of 813 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 1: the United States should make and what advances the interests 814 00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 1: of the United States of America. Think about Saddam Hussein. 815 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 1: You want to talk about a bad guy, right, However, 816 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 1: going to war in Iraq was not in the interests 817 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:44,840 Speaker 1: of the United States. We lost thousands of American lives. 818 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 1: It cost us here at home, it has cost us 819 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 1: around the world. It has been a part of this 820 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,239 Speaker 1: cost in the Middle East that has ended up with 821 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:57,920 Speaker 1: millions of people who have lost their lives, who've been injured, 822 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:03,000 Speaker 1: who've been displaced. The question for the president of the 823 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:07,279 Speaker 1: United States is to understand what's going on, have an 824 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:12,239 Speaker 1: overall strategy, and pick an appropriate response. In going back 825 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 1: to Dad as time, he's part of a group that 826 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,719 Speaker 1: is desirist. He is part of a group that's frantastics, 827 00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:24,160 Speaker 1: but of course he is. He's part of a group 828 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 1: that our federal government has designated as a terrorist. The question, though, 829 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 1: is what's the right response. And the response that Donald 830 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,880 Speaker 1: Trump has picked is the most incendiary and has moved 831 00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:42,799 Speaker 1: us right to the edge of war, and that is 832 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 1: not in our long term interest. I don't get it. 833 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 1: It's so frustrating. Megan McCain rightly pressing Elizabeth Warren as 834 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:53,160 Speaker 1: she did on the view. I guess that was from 835 00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:57,600 Speaker 1: earlier today. This is not brain surgery. This is not 836 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:02,839 Speaker 1: that complicated. I went through through all of the deeds 837 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:08,879 Speaker 1: of Solomani. The guys killed hundreds of Americans, and I mean, 838 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 1: with the most gruesome tactics available in Iraq. Has his 839 00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:20,920 Speaker 1: cud's forces were specifically targeting Americans. You don't get to 840 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 1: kill Americans and not get that kind of response. That 841 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:28,040 Speaker 1: is appropriate, that's the appropriate response. You don't shoot out 842 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:32,799 Speaker 1: American drones and expect that you're gonna get away scott free, 843 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:37,400 Speaker 1: or take oil tankers hostage so that you will control 844 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 1: and disrupt the world's supply of oil and energy, the 845 00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:45,239 Speaker 1: lifeblood of the world's economy. You don't get to hit 846 00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:49,359 Speaker 1: the Saudi oil fields to disrupt the same You don't 847 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:52,919 Speaker 1: get to take the oil tankers hostage. You don't get 848 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 1: to kill Americans. You don't get to orchestrate the attacks 849 00:50:56,160 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 1: on our embassy to kill Americans and destroy Americans worldwide. 850 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,160 Speaker 1: We already know that your fun terrorism and the number 851 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 1: one state sponsor a terror. We know you're fighting proxy 852 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 1: wars across the country. We also know that Obama Biden 853 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 1: money gave you more freedom to do it, and no, 854 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:20,200 Speaker 1: you can take out SOLA money and not put boots 855 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:22,160 Speaker 1: on the ground in Iran. As a matter of fact, 856 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:24,880 Speaker 1: I'd be against it. I am against it, and I 857 00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:28,120 Speaker 1: don't think it's necessary. And as a matter of fact, 858 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:32,880 Speaker 1: until because people like Warren and people in her party 859 00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:37,799 Speaker 1: politicize wars that Joe Biden's support, in spite of Joe 860 00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:42,680 Speaker 1: Biden now claiming he didn't, we can't start them, send 861 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 1: our national treasure, risk their lives, lose their lives, lose 862 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 1: their legs limbs, and come back disfigured, just to say 863 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:54,600 Speaker 1: never mind again. That's the whole argument I've been making 864 00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,640 Speaker 1: for a long time now about the next generation of weaponry. 865 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 1: Not to be repetitive here, but that's what this is about. 866 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,279 Speaker 1: This is, you know, and I will tell you it 867 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:10,400 Speaker 1: just people they expose themselves, but the absolute insane people 868 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 1: that they are. You know, I just can't believe. Rose McGowan, 869 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:21,359 Speaker 1: Hollywood star, tweeting an apology to a rand for killing Solomoni, 870 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 1: saying the US is held hostage by a terrorist regime, 871 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:29,919 Speaker 1: meaning the Trump regime in her view, that's what she's 872 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:33,040 Speaker 1: calling it, or the likes of Alec Baldwin, all the 873 00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,960 Speaker 1: predictable characters, Debra Messing, Michael Moore. You know, I don't 874 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:40,759 Speaker 1: spend time on Twitter anymore because it's not worth my time. Now. 875 00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:43,480 Speaker 1: There are people that are really funny, smart, bright, and 876 00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 1: you can get a lot of great information from Twitter. 877 00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:51,200 Speaker 1: But in terms of watching these predictable players every single 878 00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:56,320 Speaker 1: second of every single day hating Trump, there's nothing Donald 879 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:59,319 Speaker 1: Trump is ever gonna do that's ever gonna please them. 880 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,480 Speaker 1: And the fact that they just they look at how 881 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:07,319 Speaker 1: corrupt this whole impeachment of Trump is. It is. It's 882 00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:11,080 Speaker 1: been a farce from the get go, and to get 883 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 1: there you literally have to bifurcate your brain. Here's my word, Linda, 884 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: I know you love it. Oh, we're bringing it back 885 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:19,920 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty. All night, you have bringing it back 886 00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty because you think about it. You got Joe, 887 00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:27,920 Speaker 1: you know, quid pro quote Joe saying, uh, you're not 888 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 1: getting the billion dollars he's talking about tax dollars unless 889 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 1: you fire the prosecutor that we now know was investigating 890 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 1: his zero experience son who's being paid millions there's your quid, 891 00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:45,239 Speaker 1: your quo and your pro These very same people. They 892 00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:49,759 Speaker 1: don't say a word about Joe or Hunter matter. Oh, Jane, 893 00:53:49,800 --> 00:53:52,279 Speaker 1: you've never been proven to do anything wrong. He's on 894 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:56,200 Speaker 1: tape fragging about the quid pro and quo. What else 895 00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 1: do you need? We've got, We've got. We know they 896 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,839 Speaker 1: got paid them up. It's not hard to figure that 897 00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:04,759 Speaker 1: part out. And we know it goes way beyond in 898 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:09,160 Speaker 1: terms of other countries that Hunter was cashing in on 899 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 1: because of his world famous father, the second highest elected 900 00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:16,440 Speaker 1: man at the time in the country. I just watch 901 00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:20,280 Speaker 1: these people. This is how sick they are. Trump kills 902 00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:24,840 Speaker 1: a guy responsible for killing Americans. They have been asking 903 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,640 Speaker 1: for this hit for a long time. And well they're 904 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:32,439 Speaker 1: threatening us. Well that's the day. In a life of 905 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:36,480 Speaker 1: the Iranian regime. They threatened us every day. They've been 906 00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,800 Speaker 1: at war with us since nineteen seventy nine, since the 907 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:44,800 Speaker 1: Iranian revolution that brought the Ayatollah back from France and 908 00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:48,479 Speaker 1: the fall of the Shah, and ever since then they 909 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:52,760 Speaker 1: have been responsible as the world's number one state sponsor 910 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:56,839 Speaker 1: of terrorism. Well, we you know what part of nine 911 00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 1: to eleven did we forget? What are the nine to 912 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,279 Speaker 1: eleven commissioned report. What did I take out of that 913 00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 1: one major finding? I didn't agree with all of it. 914 00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 1: They were at war with us, We were not at 915 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 1: war with them. Now, I'm not saying war in the 916 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:12,439 Speaker 1: sense that we're going to send boots on the ground. 917 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:14,680 Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I'm against boots on the ground. 918 00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 1: I am saying the United States of America clearly does 919 00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:25,840 Speaker 1: not have the political will to fight wars. Traditionally, and frankly, 920 00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:31,600 Speaker 1: with new technology, wet that that's an outdated mode of fighting. 921 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:37,920 Speaker 1: The best thing we can do is invest research, development dollars, 922 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:41,880 Speaker 1: big time, big league, if you will, into the next 923 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 1: generation of weaponry so we can push buttons. It's like 924 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,759 Speaker 1: a like a war game. You're playing Call of Duty. No, 925 00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: it's it's real life. We want to be judicious and 926 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:55,800 Speaker 1: using it. But we also need to act when prompted. 927 00:55:56,440 --> 00:56:00,239 Speaker 1: Uranians have been begging us to do this. Now they 928 00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 1: know we'll do it. Now there might be retaliation. I 929 00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:08,320 Speaker 1: can't get into the minds of Rohana or the Mullahs 930 00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 1: in Iran or the Ayatollah I have no idea what 931 00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,880 Speaker 1: these people are capable of. I know they're evil. I 932 00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 1: know that if we ever end up in a world 933 00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:19,319 Speaker 1: where they have nuclear weapons, it's gonna be a far 934 00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:24,480 Speaker 1: more dangerous world because they're sick twisted ideology, would literally 935 00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:28,800 Speaker 1: indoctrinate their own children to strap bombs on themselves to 936 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:34,000 Speaker 1: go blow up Israelis or Americans and the promise of 937 00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 1: virgins in heaven. So who knows what they're capable of. 938 00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 1: I believe them when they say they want to wipe 939 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:44,320 Speaker 1: Israel off the map, and I believe so do the Saudis, 940 00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:46,959 Speaker 1: and so do the Emirates, and so do the Jordanians, 941 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 1: and so do the Egyptians because they're now smart enough 942 00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 1: to realize the nature of this threat Israel to the 943 00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:56,760 Speaker 1: point where they're best friends with the Israelis at this point, 944 00:56:57,320 --> 00:57:00,640 Speaker 1: and they're all sharing intelligence, and they're all all working 945 00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:05,719 Speaker 1: towards one specific goal, and that's pushing back against Iranian 946 00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:09,560 Speaker 1: hegemony in the region. Because if you look at a map, 947 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:12,920 Speaker 1: it's not that hard to look at, you know, the 948 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 1: crescent quadrant that they're trying to carve out for themselves 949 00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 1: that includes total control of Iran, Syria, Iraq and even 950 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 1: further Lebanon and elsewhere they want it all. And if 951 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:32,400 Speaker 1: they get it all and they get nuclear weapons. People 952 00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 1: would be then critical, Well, Donald Trump, why didn't you 953 00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:37,440 Speaker 1: take out the leader of the Kud's force. Now that 954 00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:40,240 Speaker 1: we found out you had intelligence, you could have acted upon. 955 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:44,360 Speaker 1: Nothing Donald Trump could have done here that would have 956 00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 1: satisfied the lust and desire and psychosis to take this 957 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:53,720 Speaker 1: guy out. That's just the reality. All right, Let's get 958 00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:57,800 Speaker 1: to our busy telephones. Here. Moses in New Jersey, Moses, Hi, 959 00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:01,120 Speaker 1: how are you glad you called? I'm doing great, Shawan 960 00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 1: Happy new year, my friend. Great to talk to you. 961 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,280 Speaker 1: Happy new year, sir, glad you called? Yes, said you know, so. 962 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:08,560 Speaker 1: One thing I wanted to speak about is it is insane. 963 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 1: How just looking at this from like just on the 964 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,439 Speaker 1: outside as a regular person. You know what I Ran. 965 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 1: They've been embolding the way I see it because of 966 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:20,600 Speaker 1: the fact that the president not only in an election year, 967 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,400 Speaker 1: it's because he's been impeached. Because right now, as an adversary, 968 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:26,480 Speaker 1: what better time to try to go and do all 969 00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:28,880 Speaker 1: these acts that I Ran has been carrying out because 970 00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:32,320 Speaker 1: of this political because of this impeachment. That's that's that's fake, 971 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 1: you know. In an election year. Yeah, Look, I mean 972 00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 1: the world watches. Yeah. I look. I think at some 973 00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:43,000 Speaker 1: point the Chinese president president, she made a calculation and 974 00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 1: was told, if there's a good chance this guy's not 975 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:48,600 Speaker 1: going to get elected, I think the I think he's 976 00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 1: probably misinformed. But I don't know what's going to happen 977 00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 1: in three hundred and one days. But if that's their calculation, 978 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 1: I Donald Trump's a good negotier. I would say, if 979 00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 1: you wait till January of twenty twenty one, the price 980 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:04,880 Speaker 1: went up, I would imagine that probably sealed at least 981 00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:08,840 Speaker 1: the first part of the deal that he's banked with China. Absolutely, 982 00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 1: you know what, because the one thing I see is 983 00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:14,040 Speaker 1: political sabotage coming from the Democratic Party, the same reason 984 00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 1: why they held the USMCA for one entire year, making 985 00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:21,880 Speaker 1: losing probably an entire year worth of economic growth from 986 00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:24,120 Speaker 1: that deal. Even I'm pretty sure that what they could 987 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 1: have figured out or that deal, it could have been 988 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:28,760 Speaker 1: done in about two days, and it could have passed 989 00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:31,840 Speaker 1: it a whole year ago. Well, I'll say this, there's 990 00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:35,280 Speaker 1: no doubt the Iranian economy suffered under the sanctions of 991 00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:38,880 Speaker 1: President Trump, and so too has the Chinese economy, and 992 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 1: the revenues that we've taken in from the tariffs that 993 00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 1: we've now put on the Chinese in particular. Well, it 994 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:48,160 Speaker 1: didn't blow up the stock market, is predicted by many. 995 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:50,400 Speaker 1: Number one. Number two. It gave us at least a 996 00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:53,160 Speaker 1: mini deal on top of the other deals that we've 997 00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 1: gotten done with Canada, Mexico, Japan, Western European allies. And 998 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,760 Speaker 1: you can click that off the list. Is another promise 999 01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:04,680 Speaker 1: made and promised, Captain. Like I said, I'm a free trader, 1000 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:08,480 Speaker 1: but I'm a fair trader. The President doesn't want tariffs. 1001 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 1: The President doesn't want tariffs on American manufactured goods, or 1002 01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:19,160 Speaker 1: American farmers or American energy companies. And he's fighting for 1003 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:22,840 Speaker 1: the long term interests of America and our economy because 1004 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 1: we've been taking advantage of forever. Finally a president saying, 1005 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:28,000 Speaker 1: you know what, this has got to end, no more 1006 01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:32,000 Speaker 1: taking advantage of us. Right as we continue back to 1007 01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:36,160 Speaker 1: our busy telephones, Scott, the swing state of Ohio, we'll 1008 01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 1: be paying very close attention to Ohio and three hundred 1009 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:42,240 Speaker 1: and one day, sir, how are you? I am fine, Thanks, 1010 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:45,240 Speaker 1: and happy New Year to you. Sean, Happy new Year 1011 01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:49,800 Speaker 1: to you. I was calling. I had two questions for you. First, 1012 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:58,240 Speaker 1: I don't understand how people can be upset after this 1013 01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:04,320 Speaker 1: guy arranged for the attack on the embassy. In the embassy, 1014 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 1: as I understand, it is like the in the United States. 1015 01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:12,600 Speaker 1: I mean, that is correct, that that is American considered 1016 01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:15,760 Speaker 1: American territory. That is an attack on America. You're right, 1017 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 1: that is vert. That is one hundred percent true. So 1018 01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:24,720 Speaker 1: they attacked our embassy and we're just supposed to sit 1019 01:01:24,760 --> 01:01:29,840 Speaker 1: back and do nothing. Correct. No, And it's actually worse 1020 01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 1: because if you're a liberal, if you're a Benghazi Democrat 1021 01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:37,919 Speaker 1: or a bribe Mullah Democrat, bribe Themala's Democrat, you think 1022 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 1: that maybe they like us if we give him another 1023 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:42,200 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty billion. You know, Look, the people 1024 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 1: on Twitter are very clever, and it's made the rounds everywhere. 1025 01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 1: You have you have Solomoni asking President Trump, are you're 1026 01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 1: gonna give us one hundred and fifty billion like Obama? 1027 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,560 Speaker 1: And then you have another picture of Trump bandsering saying yeah, 1028 01:01:55,680 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 1: meet me at Baghdad Airport. So that's my second point. 1029 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:05,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I um, it confuses me to a great 1030 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:11,480 Speaker 1: degree as to how anyone thought the giving that regime 1031 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:16,600 Speaker 1: that country one hundred and fifty billion dollars on a 1032 01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:20,280 Speaker 1: wink that they were going to stop producing any kind 1033 01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:26,240 Speaker 1: of nuclear program. I that, like I said, it confounds 1034 01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:30,480 Speaker 1: me to no end that they would believe that, Okay, 1035 01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:34,120 Speaker 1: we'll just give them the money and they'll stop. Well, listen, 1036 01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:37,120 Speaker 1: you know what it is a naivete But it's the 1037 01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 1: appeasement mindset, that's it. It's that simple. We can bribe 1038 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:45,160 Speaker 1: our way to happiness. Doesn't work, all right, eight hundred 1039 01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 1: nine four one Sean, if you want to be a 1040 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:49,720 Speaker 1: part of the program. Doug Collins is here to weigh 1041 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:54,280 Speaker 1: in on the Nancy Pelosi debacle that's unfolding at the 1042 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,520 Speaker 1: top of the hour three hundred and one day's best 1043 01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:01,480 Speaker 1: election coverage. That's our promise coming up next, our final 1044 01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:07,000 Speaker 1: news round up and information overload our practically his actions 1045 01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:11,760 Speaker 1: now put us on the path to another war. He's 1046 01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:16,880 Speaker 1: been erratic and unsuccessful in almost every previous foreign policy endeavor. 1047 01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:19,600 Speaker 1: This one is the most dangerous of all. We are 1048 01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:22,880 Speaker 1: not safer today than we were before Donald Trump acted. 1049 01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:27,560 Speaker 1: We see knew have accomplished what Sully Money was trying 1050 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:31,600 Speaker 1: to do, but so in death he's actually accomplished his goal. Yeah, 1051 01:03:33,160 --> 01:03:35,960 Speaker 1: he's not a good idea unless you're ready for what 1052 01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:40,040 Speaker 1: this is and was an enormous escalation. As I said, 1053 01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:43,160 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if Donald Trump cured cancer or kills 1054 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:47,080 Speaker 1: the world's worst terrorist. Who's killed American doesn't matter in 1055 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:49,280 Speaker 1: their view anyway. Glad you with US News Round Up 1056 01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:52,919 Speaker 1: Information Overload, toll free. It's eight hundred and ninety four one, Shawn. 1057 01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:55,320 Speaker 1: If you want to be a part of the program, Well, 1058 01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 1: I'm looking before me. We have a polar you just 1059 01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:01,360 Speaker 1: heard from Doug Collins on the second cut we played. 1060 01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:03,120 Speaker 1: We'll get to the issue of solo money with him 1061 01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:06,439 Speaker 1: in a second. And in a primary in the Great 1062 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:10,520 Speaker 1: State of Georgia, chose the Congressman Doug Collins gets fifty 1063 01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:14,720 Speaker 1: six percent if the primary were held today, and Senator 1064 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:20,240 Speaker 1: Kelly Loffler, who Governor Kemp appointed, get sixteen percent, none 1065 01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:24,200 Speaker 1: of which surprises me. And you know, tried to tell 1066 01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:26,920 Speaker 1: the governor that maybe you want to go with the 1067 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:30,400 Speaker 1: guy that everybody loves in Georgia. Apparently Sean Hannity has 1068 01:04:30,440 --> 01:04:32,919 Speaker 1: zero influence on anybody, in spite of what the mob 1069 01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:36,440 Speaker 1: says in the media. Congressman Collins joins us, Now, how 1070 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:38,760 Speaker 1: are you, sir. I'm good, John. I hope you're doing well. 1071 01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:40,560 Speaker 1: I know you don't like it when I call you 1072 01:04:40,560 --> 01:04:43,200 Speaker 1: a senator, but you know, I kind of felt it 1073 01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:45,440 Speaker 1: was a no brainer in my humble opinion. But I 1074 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:47,520 Speaker 1: guess nobody listens to me. I'm just a dumb talk 1075 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:49,960 Speaker 1: show host. But let me go first to the issue 1076 01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:53,360 Speaker 1: of what Nancy Pelosi's doing here. Because I watched you, 1077 01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:57,439 Speaker 1: I thought you emerged as a star for the Republicans 1078 01:04:57,440 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 1: in the House. You know, as we had to watch 1079 01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:04,080 Speaker 1: the shift show unfolds and hearsay witnesses and witnesses that 1080 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:07,120 Speaker 1: were just offering their opinions, none of which is admissible 1081 01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:09,840 Speaker 1: in court. And the only one fact witness said, yeah, 1082 01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 1: the president wanted nothing and no quid pro quel. Oh 1083 01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:15,760 Speaker 1: it's amazing. Let me look go back on something. Shop. 1084 01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:18,080 Speaker 1: There's another site witness out there there's too cowardly to 1085 01:05:18,080 --> 01:05:21,600 Speaker 1: actually testify, and that's Adam Schiff. Because Adam Schiff, we 1086 01:05:21,760 --> 01:05:24,840 Speaker 1: know had contact with the whistleblower. But yet Adam Schiff 1087 01:05:25,000 --> 01:05:27,480 Speaker 1: hid behind all of this and never would come forward. 1088 01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:30,640 Speaker 1: And you know the only goal he ever had was 1089 01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:33,200 Speaker 1: to impeach this president. So I think it's really interesting 1090 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:35,480 Speaker 1: to see when the facts came out they were not 1091 01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:37,640 Speaker 1: on their side. They continued to push this through because 1092 01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:40,400 Speaker 1: they wanted to have an impeachment on the record, And 1093 01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:46,200 Speaker 1: now the Speaker is playing politics with her quote so solemn, 1094 01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:49,919 Speaker 1: sacred beauty. I think this week when the House comes 1095 01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:51,840 Speaker 1: back in session today and this week, that some of 1096 01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:53,880 Speaker 1: those thirty one folks who are in Trump districts are 1097 01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:57,280 Speaker 1: going to have a real problem with the Speaker playing politics. 1098 01:05:57,280 --> 01:05:59,520 Speaker 1: Was something that she told them was a solemn beauty 1099 01:05:59,560 --> 01:06:01,280 Speaker 1: that they were to be protected on if they just 1100 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:03,600 Speaker 1: went through with this, because all this is the hatchet 1101 01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 1: job of the president United States did nothing more. Well, 1102 01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:08,160 Speaker 1: now the question is what does the Senate do with this, 1103 01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 1: because you know how long this We're now in uncharted 1104 01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:15,720 Speaker 1: waters here, and the Senate I think is getting pretty anty. 1105 01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:19,000 Speaker 1: I mean within seconds, Senator Josh Holly, we had on 1106 01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 1: TV last night, had ten people co signing his bills saying, 1107 01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:26,960 Speaker 1: you got twenty five days otherwise we're going to dismiss this, 1108 01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:29,800 Speaker 1: which I support. The other thing is is now Lindsey 1109 01:06:29,800 --> 01:06:33,800 Speaker 1: Graham is he's going to announce tonight his plan to 1110 01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:37,680 Speaker 1: force the House to either bring the articles or not. Well, 1111 01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:40,480 Speaker 1: what I suspect here is what we've known, and that 1112 01:06:40,680 --> 01:06:43,400 Speaker 1: is they realize this is the weakest case they could 1113 01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 1: ever put forward. But they did in any way out 1114 01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:49,320 Speaker 1: of sort of their lust and desire, their obsession, their 1115 01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:52,920 Speaker 1: psychosis to hurt Donald Trump. Hey do you're exactly right on? 1116 01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:54,760 Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is what happened. I think 1117 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:57,880 Speaker 1: number one, they wanted just to say that they impeach him. 1118 01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:00,480 Speaker 1: They wanted to have that to run home a campaign. 1119 01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 1: To me, it's account. I mean, if you want to 1120 01:07:01,680 --> 01:07:03,640 Speaker 1: just get sort of out there, I mean they've been 1121 01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:07,600 Speaker 1: operating in the House. Is the DNC's political arm all year? 1122 01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:10,080 Speaker 1: I mean, this is nothing but to me, a campaign 1123 01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:12,480 Speaker 1: contribution is what they're trying to do. But when they 1124 01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:14,280 Speaker 1: got over and they started looking at it, they realized 1125 01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 1: this case is weak. We already butchered it in the 1126 01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:17,960 Speaker 1: House and showed them it was weak that they had 1127 01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:20,200 Speaker 1: the numbers there. When he actually got to the Senate, 1128 01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:21,840 Speaker 1: then there we're going to actually gonna be shown for 1129 01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 1: the fause that they are. My question is, though, is 1130 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:26,800 Speaker 1: it's time to the Democratic Party Speaker Pelosi, as I 1131 01:07:26,840 --> 01:07:28,640 Speaker 1: said they I asked that on another interview last night, 1132 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:30,760 Speaker 1: I think it said, Look, this is like the Wizard 1133 01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:32,440 Speaker 1: of Oz. They need to go ask the Wizard for 1134 01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:34,000 Speaker 1: a brain. They even go to ask the wizard for 1135 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:35,560 Speaker 1: a courage. They need to ask the Wizard for a 1136 01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:38,560 Speaker 1: heart because right now they have put this country through 1137 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:43,040 Speaker 1: a turmoil against a president who did nothing wrong. And 1138 01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:44,840 Speaker 1: they owe it to the American people that if you 1139 01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:46,760 Speaker 1: have a case, go make it in the Senate and 1140 01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:48,760 Speaker 1: let it this ship's fall where they make. But right 1141 01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:51,640 Speaker 1: now this shows just a crass political nature of a 1142 01:07:51,720 --> 01:07:54,720 Speaker 1: democratic party that cares more about their own power than 1143 01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:57,480 Speaker 1: they do America, and especially in light of everything going 1144 01:07:57,520 --> 01:07:59,720 Speaker 1: on around the world. We need to get this behind us, 1145 01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:01,919 Speaker 1: get this thing done. Because the president has done nothing wrong. 1146 01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:03,920 Speaker 1: We're probably go say and they say that and it 1147 01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:05,920 Speaker 1: needs to get over with. Well, you would think that 1148 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:09,960 Speaker 1: that happens now. There is an article out today Mitch McConnell. 1149 01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:13,240 Speaker 1: In fact, they're saying in the Hill has the boats 1150 01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 1: to block these demands for witnesses, and that they're just 1151 01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:18,800 Speaker 1: going to follow the same rules that they applied in 1152 01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:23,040 Speaker 1: the Clinton impeachment, which is again that was that consideration 1153 01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:26,920 Speaker 1: was not given by the likes of Jerry Nadler and 1154 01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:31,600 Speaker 1: the compromise corrupt congenital liar, and it was leading the 1155 01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:34,960 Speaker 1: Shift show, and that's Adam Shift himself. So I think 1156 01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:38,679 Speaker 1: that now puts it on another level. So how long? 1157 01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,519 Speaker 1: How long do they get to hold this out here? Well, 1158 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,000 Speaker 1: that's the question. I think that there's a lot of 1159 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:46,040 Speaker 1: you know, going back and forth. I led the Senate 1160 01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 1: to their own rules and how many votes they need 1161 01:08:47,840 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 1: to change the rules. I know that once the articles 1162 01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:52,160 Speaker 1: get there, they can do pretty much anything they want 1163 01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:54,360 Speaker 1: to with fifty one vote before the end. It may 1164 01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:57,040 Speaker 1: be a little more difficult. But look, I respect Senator 1165 01:08:57,120 --> 01:08:59,800 Speaker 1: Graham and miss McConell, Miss McConnell. You know, as he said, 1166 01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:01,920 Speaker 1: or he said, you know, look, you know you're going 1167 01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:03,680 Speaker 1: to hold something back from us that we don't want 1168 01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:05,320 Speaker 1: to start with. Okay, I don't think there's a lot 1169 01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:07,599 Speaker 1: of levers there, But I think it is important today 1170 01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:11,080 Speaker 1: that when Mitch McConnell has the Senator has the votes 1171 01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:14,479 Speaker 1: in hand to do a process in which both remember 1172 01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:18,160 Speaker 1: those are those impeachment rules under Clinton were one hundred 1173 01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:21,559 Speaker 1: to nothing. They passed unanimously. So if they cannot say 1174 01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:24,400 Speaker 1: that they're unfair. The Democrats cannot say they're unfair. What 1175 01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:26,639 Speaker 1: they're trying to have to do is have a redo 1176 01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 1: of what was terribly boxed in the House when you 1177 01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:31,720 Speaker 1: had Jerry Nadler just accept whatever Adam Schiff gave him, 1178 01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 1: and Adam Schiff made it up on the fly. You see. 1179 01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:36,920 Speaker 1: This frustrates me though, because Mitt Romney's out there. Oh, 1180 01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:38,719 Speaker 1: I'd like to be able to hear from John Bolton. 1181 01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:42,519 Speaker 1: They had their opportunity to subpoena Bolton and they chose 1182 01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:46,240 Speaker 1: not to because they know that executive privilege is real, 1183 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:50,080 Speaker 1: and they didn't do it. So my guess is, and 1184 01:09:50,160 --> 01:09:53,439 Speaker 1: my reading of the Constitution is the House impeaches, the 1185 01:09:53,560 --> 01:09:57,080 Speaker 1: Senate puts on the trial at now. House managers will 1186 01:09:57,120 --> 01:10:00,519 Speaker 1: present their case, and the Chief Justice of the sam Court, 1187 01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:03,680 Speaker 1: John Roberts, will preside, But the Senators get to make 1188 01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:06,360 Speaker 1: their rules as it applies to all of this. Okay, 1189 01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:09,640 Speaker 1: that should be established based on the Clinton model, But 1190 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:12,559 Speaker 1: shouldn't the case have been made by the House. And 1191 01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:14,920 Speaker 1: the idea that now the Senate's going to make a 1192 01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 1: whole new case doesn't seem particularly constitutional to me. It 1193 01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 1: is not I think that's the case. Look, so this 1194 01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:25,200 Speaker 1: is I will equivalate this more equivalent case to more 1195 01:10:25,240 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 1: of a civil case than a criminal case. And because 1196 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:29,880 Speaker 1: sometimes you can have in a criminal case there but 1197 01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:31,960 Speaker 1: this is not a criminal case by any sessimented. The 1198 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:35,080 Speaker 1: President did nothing wrong but in a simple action, which 1199 01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:37,120 Speaker 1: is sort of the Maybe the is best you can 1200 01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:40,160 Speaker 1: to come to equate this in the Senate? Is it 1201 01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:43,080 Speaker 1: once the deposition is done, once the transcribed record is done, 1202 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:44,960 Speaker 1: once all of that is submitted to the core, once 1203 01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:47,120 Speaker 1: you're ready for trial, that's all you can go off of. 1204 01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:49,639 Speaker 1: And I think Senator Ruby, I'll actually talked about that. 1205 01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:52,760 Speaker 1: I heard you gave an interview saying we're going to 1206 01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:55,080 Speaker 1: go based on the House Tostry Committee and the complaint 1207 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:57,599 Speaker 1: brought before and the articles that came out and the 1208 01:10:57,640 --> 01:10:59,560 Speaker 1: documents that came from there. That's what they're going to 1209 01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:02,320 Speaker 1: base this. So for the senators and the Democratic senators, 1210 01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:04,360 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer, give me a break. You're not gonna get 1211 01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:06,799 Speaker 1: to retry this case. You're not so supposed to retry 1212 01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:08,880 Speaker 1: this case. You're supposed to say what the House has 1213 01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:12,800 Speaker 1: sent you and then have the hearing, have your trial, 1214 01:11:12,920 --> 01:11:14,600 Speaker 1: and then what's going to happen is we all know 1215 01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:16,800 Speaker 1: what's going to happen. He's going to be acquitted. This 1216 01:11:16,880 --> 01:11:19,080 Speaker 1: is going to be dismissing the Senate, and we're gonna 1217 01:11:19,120 --> 01:11:21,559 Speaker 1: move on. The problem is they can't stand the president 1218 01:11:21,560 --> 01:11:24,599 Speaker 1: who is doing stuff so right and doing things he promised, 1219 01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:27,360 Speaker 1: and they just they're just trying to both the Americans. 1220 01:11:27,360 --> 01:11:29,320 Speaker 1: People are seeing through this, Sean. I think, as you 1221 01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:31,760 Speaker 1: say all the time, spear not, they're seeing through this. Well, 1222 01:11:31,760 --> 01:11:34,040 Speaker 1: I say, let not your heart be troubled. So you 1223 01:11:34,160 --> 01:11:38,960 Speaker 1: got all the Democratic candidates leading Democrats, Tulsey Gabbard, you know, 1224 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 1: saying about the actions in Iraq against Solo Money. By 1225 01:11:42,479 --> 01:11:44,479 Speaker 1: the way, is anyone ever asked the question what was 1226 01:11:44,479 --> 01:11:48,120 Speaker 1: Solo Money doing in a Baghdad airport? He was up 1227 01:11:48,120 --> 01:11:51,120 Speaker 1: to no good. Now our intelligence, according to reports, and 1228 01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:53,920 Speaker 1: I believe them, and you know, I know people are saying, well, 1229 01:11:53,960 --> 01:11:57,360 Speaker 1: now you trust the intelligence community. A Congressman, I could 1230 01:11:57,400 --> 01:12:01,240 Speaker 1: not have been more clear, again again saying the ninety 1231 01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:04,439 Speaker 1: nine percent of good people in both the FBI and 1232 01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:08,720 Speaker 1: any intelligence community. So yeah, I believe our intelligence officials 1233 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:12,400 Speaker 1: and this intelligence take a victory lap, take a bow. 1234 01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:16,679 Speaker 1: It was perfect and the idea that they can't even 1235 01:12:16,880 --> 01:12:20,040 Speaker 1: acknowledge this is a good thing for the world to 1236 01:12:20,040 --> 01:12:23,320 Speaker 1: take this guy out. I have a hard time understanding, well, 1237 01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:25,719 Speaker 1: it's not a hard time understanding when they put party. 1238 01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:28,519 Speaker 1: You know, they talk about all this putting party before 1239 01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:30,559 Speaker 1: the country. What they're doing is putting their party before 1240 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 1: their country and their patriotism and everything else. But let's 1241 01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:35,160 Speaker 1: also remember something because they always go back to this 1242 01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:40,679 Speaker 1: failed attempt by President Obama with the JCOPA, the Joint 1243 01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:44,400 Speaker 1: Process of their nuclear deal, which was a force from 1244 01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:47,280 Speaker 1: day one. It was nothing but an appeasement from President Obama. 1245 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:49,800 Speaker 1: You know, one of the actual disterminations. There are things 1246 01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:52,400 Speaker 1: that they've been breaking since day one was mister Solomoni 1247 01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:54,360 Speaker 1: was not supposed to travel. That's part of the way. 1248 01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:57,120 Speaker 1: You know, there's been issues here. He's been going all 1249 01:12:57,120 --> 01:12:59,680 Speaker 1: over the world flauning this and for him to be 1250 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:02,879 Speaker 1: in that when our embassy, our sovereign soul was attacked 1251 01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:05,360 Speaker 1: when he was coming back through Syria, when we already 1252 01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:08,559 Speaker 1: know the problems there. This is something that everyone should 1253 01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:11,040 Speaker 1: be able to, the Democrats, Republicans, doesn't matter who you are, 1254 01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:14,400 Speaker 1: you're an American. This man killed nine American lives. My 1255 01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:17,040 Speaker 1: question is is what do they say? What does Democrats 1256 01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:19,040 Speaker 1: go out and say the gold Star families right now 1257 01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:23,760 Speaker 1: who lost loved ones because of this man's murderous terrorism. 1258 01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:26,200 Speaker 1: What I can't I what I can't allow? I look 1259 01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:29,759 Speaker 1: and for those that say, well, it's a buyinary choice 1260 01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:32,360 Speaker 1: here you got on the one hand, if you take 1261 01:13:32,360 --> 01:13:36,280 Speaker 1: out Solo money and there's there's retaliation by the Iranians, 1262 01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:38,400 Speaker 1: that means his boots on the ground. No that no, 1263 01:13:38,479 --> 01:13:40,920 Speaker 1: it doesn't. No, it doesn't mean there's boots on the ground. 1264 01:13:40,960 --> 01:13:42,920 Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I don't support boots on 1265 01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:45,320 Speaker 1: the ground. You want to know why, because these idiots 1266 01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:47,880 Speaker 1: where you work in your swamp there by the way, 1267 01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:51,799 Speaker 1: not you, um, these idiots start wars all the time 1268 01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:55,320 Speaker 1: and then politicize them and say never mind. So the 1269 01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:59,120 Speaker 1: only way I'm willing to accept fighting evil and our 1270 01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:03,559 Speaker 1: enemies and those that bring harm or threaten American citizens abroad, 1271 01:14:03,600 --> 01:14:07,240 Speaker 1: our interest abroad is I like the idea of pushing 1272 01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:11,320 Speaker 1: buttons from Tampa and taking out refineries and Solo money 1273 01:14:11,400 --> 01:14:14,240 Speaker 1: and if need be nuclear sights to me that we 1274 01:14:14,360 --> 01:14:17,280 Speaker 1: have that capability and let's continue to build upon it. Well, 1275 01:14:17,360 --> 01:14:19,000 Speaker 1: if someone who's still a member of the Air Force 1276 01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:21,760 Speaker 1: is someone who knows our capabilities will interact in two 1277 01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:24,360 Speaker 1: thousand and eight. Look, we have the finest military in 1278 01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:27,439 Speaker 1: the world. There's nothing we can't do. And for the 1279 01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:30,120 Speaker 1: Democrats to say, oh, if we kill this, you know, 1280 01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:32,439 Speaker 1: if we take out a terrorist, then we're worried about 1281 01:14:32,439 --> 01:14:34,240 Speaker 1: what a RAN's gonna do to us. I'm not worried 1282 01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:36,519 Speaker 1: about what a RAN's gonna do. Well, here's something you 1283 01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:39,240 Speaker 1: forget that these Democrats and others forget a Ran was 1284 01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:41,719 Speaker 1: gonna do stuff to us. No matter what. They hate 1285 01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:44,160 Speaker 1: us because we're free. They don't hate us for any 1286 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:47,639 Speaker 1: other reason. Rand has been at war with us since 1287 01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:52,240 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy nine. Let's face facts. That is a fact. 1288 01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:56,000 Speaker 1: All right, stay right there, we'll continue. All right, as 1289 01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:58,760 Speaker 1: we continue, Congressman Doug Collins of the Great State of 1290 01:14:58,800 --> 01:15:02,200 Speaker 1: George's with us. This really gets under my skin because 1291 01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:05,439 Speaker 1: we know in the case of General Flynn, they weren't 1292 01:15:05,439 --> 01:15:08,639 Speaker 1: recommending jail time. Well, now I guess in there never 1293 01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:13,400 Speaker 1: ending Russia Gate Hoak saga, we now know they're recommending 1294 01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:17,400 Speaker 1: up to six months in prison for General Flynn. Now, 1295 01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:20,280 Speaker 1: these people go off Scott Free. We know that the 1296 01:15:20,320 --> 01:15:22,840 Speaker 1: FBI didn't think that General Flynn was lying at the 1297 01:15:22,880 --> 01:15:25,479 Speaker 1: time that they interviewed him, you know, when Comey set 1298 01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:27,559 Speaker 1: him up and ragged about it and said, oh yeah, 1299 01:15:27,600 --> 01:15:29,920 Speaker 1: I did something I'd never do or get away within 1300 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:33,120 Speaker 1: the Trump or Obama years, and I sent my guys in. 1301 01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:37,880 Speaker 1: And we've since learned that the Muller's team was basically 1302 01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:40,360 Speaker 1: threatening to go after his family and his own son. 1303 01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:43,479 Speaker 1: So he signed a document saying he lied, and they 1304 01:15:43,479 --> 01:15:46,040 Speaker 1: didn't even think he didn't. They didn't think he lied. 1305 01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:48,080 Speaker 1: So now they're gonna put him in jail six months. 1306 01:15:48,080 --> 01:15:50,320 Speaker 1: This is how we treat people that serve their country 1307 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 1: thirty three years. Congressman, No, it's not. And I think 1308 01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:54,920 Speaker 1: this is some kind of change. And I think one 1309 01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:56,200 Speaker 1: of the things that we got to look at, John, 1310 01:15:56,439 --> 01:15:58,880 Speaker 1: is beyond the shift show, beyond all the n never 1311 01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:01,639 Speaker 1: non fance on. You know what, We've got to get through, 1312 01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:03,320 Speaker 1: and we're going to get through for this president here 1313 01:16:03,320 --> 01:16:05,120 Speaker 1: in the next you know a little bit is we 1314 01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:08,320 Speaker 1: need to go back and from my persaded Chairman Nadler 1315 01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:12,040 Speaker 1: is being completely you know, malpractice. We're not having a 1316 01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:14,080 Speaker 1: hearing on the harvest report. We're not going back and 1317 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:16,719 Speaker 1: doing the things like the transcript that I released earlier 1318 01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:19,720 Speaker 1: last year, the issues on how this all started. It 1319 01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:22,120 Speaker 1: is time for people to be held accountable. My one. 1320 01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:24,320 Speaker 1: There's one two great things that have happened in the 1321 01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:26,920 Speaker 1: last little bit. One, Bill barb became Attorney General last year. 1322 01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:29,960 Speaker 1: He's bought a new sense of urgency to make sure 1323 01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:32,479 Speaker 1: that this doesn't happen again and to punish those who have. 1324 01:16:32,880 --> 01:16:36,400 Speaker 1: And mister Durham is out there now going beyond what 1325 01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:38,840 Speaker 1: we've talked about before. And that's not simply the Comy 1326 01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:41,760 Speaker 1: McCabe cabal, which McCabe makes me, you know, for seeing 1327 01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:44,080 Speaker 1: in anybody or anybody to have him home makes me. 1328 01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:46,360 Speaker 1: We just want to be sick at my stomach. This 1329 01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:48,840 Speaker 1: is a man who lied. He lied to VESTCA, and 1330 01:16:48,880 --> 01:16:50,559 Speaker 1: nobody wants to talk about it, even when it came 1331 01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:52,960 Speaker 1: out in the transcius that he lied about what he did. 1332 01:16:53,280 --> 01:16:55,320 Speaker 1: And he's not being punished for it, but being rewarded 1333 01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:58,080 Speaker 1: for it. So I think when we look at past Clapper, Brennan, 1334 01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:00,880 Speaker 1: these others, now that Durham has his I said, my 1335 01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:03,679 Speaker 1: hope is and I have you know, kept that faith 1336 01:17:03,920 --> 01:17:05,400 Speaker 1: that this is going to be gotten to the bottom 1337 01:17:05,439 --> 01:17:08,160 Speaker 1: of and those who actually perpetrated things against this country 1338 01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:11,920 Speaker 1: and who politicized this under the Obama administration and took 1339 01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:15,479 Speaker 1: down America's trust in our intelligence agentes and in our 1340 01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:18,800 Speaker 1: Department of Justice because they were corrupt. That one percent 1341 01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:20,680 Speaker 1: that you talked about. The ninety nine percent are doing 1342 01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:23,439 Speaker 1: their job every day, but they put a taint of 1343 01:17:24,360 --> 01:17:26,760 Speaker 1: corruption owned those departments, and it's time for that to 1344 01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:28,880 Speaker 1: be rooted out. And I'm looking forward to Durham and 1345 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:30,880 Speaker 1: under the direction of bar and others to get through that. 1346 01:17:31,520 --> 01:17:34,439 Speaker 1: I agree with you, Congressman Doug Collins, great state of Georgia. 1347 01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:36,920 Speaker 1: Thank you, Congressman. When we come back wide open phones, 1348 01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:40,519 Speaker 1: We've got an amazing Hannity tonight, including Lindsey Graham, will 1349 01:17:40,560 --> 01:17:44,000 Speaker 1: have updates on all of these stories and much much more. 1350 01:17:44,600 --> 01:17:46,479 Speaker 1: Oh a lot of other stuff happening in the news. 1351 01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:49,120 Speaker 1: We'll get to all that tonight, nine Eastern Hannity, Fox News. 1352 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:52,280 Speaker 1: Three hundred and one days to go, three hundred and 1353 01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:55,759 Speaker 1: one count them down. Hannity dot Com launching earlier today. 1354 01:17:56,200 --> 01:17:58,519 Speaker 1: Everything you need to know when you need to register, 1355 01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:03,599 Speaker 1: when early voting starts, when absentee ballots need to be 1356 01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:06,040 Speaker 1: brought in. Who's your candidates running? We got it all up, 1357 01:18:06,120 --> 01:18:11,000 Speaker 1: Hannity dot com to aid in your election knowledge. We'll continue, 1358 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:14,479 Speaker 1: all right, Let's go to the media mob and their 1359 01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:19,280 Speaker 1: reaction to the president rightfully taken out. Well. David Petreus 1360 01:18:19,280 --> 01:18:21,639 Speaker 1: thinks it's a far bigger killing than even been lauden. 1361 01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:26,760 Speaker 1: Here's their reaction, predictable reaction today. The United States has 1362 01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:31,040 Speaker 1: reached historic understanding with a run, but we have a 1363 01:18:31,160 --> 01:18:34,360 Speaker 1: historic opportunity to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons. Ron 1364 01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:38,800 Speaker 1: has also agreed to the most robust and intrusive inspections 1365 01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:44,560 Speaker 1: and transparency regime ever negotiated for any nuclear program in history. 1366 01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:48,520 Speaker 1: We rallied the world to impose the toughest sanctions in history. 1367 01:18:49,200 --> 01:18:51,040 Speaker 1: We are following the breaking news here of this historic 1368 01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:56,439 Speaker 1: understanding with Iran. It is definitely in his moment. Is 1369 01:18:57,240 --> 01:19:01,960 Speaker 1: it is a historic agreement, frankly understanding and quote good deal. 1370 01:19:02,120 --> 01:19:04,400 Speaker 1: But there is of course still much work to be done. 1371 01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:06,519 Speaker 1: A lot of what happened today does not happen every day. 1372 01:19:06,560 --> 01:19:09,200 Speaker 1: This was a historic deal on a historic day, even 1373 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:12,320 Speaker 1: though it's not done yet. This historic day and international 1374 01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:16,920 Speaker 1: relations and this potentially historic deal. So it is a 1375 01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:20,800 Speaker 1: very historic deal and it changes. It has the potential 1376 01:19:20,920 --> 01:19:23,679 Speaker 1: if we do the deal on June thirtieth, of changing 1377 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:25,920 Speaker 1: the way global gravity works. Yes, I don't want to 1378 01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:29,120 Speaker 1: let this moment go by. It is a historic thing. 1379 01:19:29,160 --> 01:19:31,960 Speaker 1: We are witnessing world leaders reach a framework for a 1380 01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:36,520 Speaker 1: historic deal. This is the most strictly governed nuclear accord 1381 01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:39,960 Speaker 1: of any nuclear program ever in history. This is a 1382 01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:43,839 Speaker 1: masterful chess player back in the game, and President Obama 1383 01:19:43,880 --> 01:19:46,800 Speaker 1: has done a masterful job. The President has handled as 1384 01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:50,719 Speaker 1: brilliantly in moving that needle. It's an extraordinarily difficult needle, 1385 01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:54,000 Speaker 1: but he's moving it and it's breathtaking to watch. The 1386 01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:57,400 Speaker 1: President has put a plan on the table that controls 1387 01:19:57,439 --> 01:20:01,360 Speaker 1: it for fifteen years. It's a fabulous the piece of work. 1388 01:20:01,439 --> 01:20:04,839 Speaker 1: So this is indeed a historic day. But it is historic, 1389 01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:09,120 Speaker 1: no doubt, an historic day coming up the historic framework 1390 01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:12,240 Speaker 1: indeed an historic day. You bet. We've got more news 1391 01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:15,479 Speaker 1: on today's historic deal with the historic potential deal, and 1392 01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:18,639 Speaker 1: we'll have more on this historic day. Historic news out 1393 01:20:18,640 --> 01:20:22,360 Speaker 1: of Switzerland, they had the Republican reaction to the historic 1394 01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:26,160 Speaker 1: nuclear agreement, and while today's agreement is historic. Probably the 1395 01:20:26,160 --> 01:20:29,759 Speaker 1: biggest breakthrough in this historic agreement today, Iron has agreed 1396 01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:33,240 Speaker 1: to an unprecedented level of inspection. Such a deal has 1397 01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:36,240 Speaker 1: never been negotiated in the history of the nuclear age before. 1398 01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:40,400 Speaker 1: This was a historic opportunity. President Obama announced a historic breakthrough. 1399 01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:44,679 Speaker 1: This is a big historic moment, a major historic moment. 1400 01:20:44,800 --> 01:20:48,439 Speaker 1: How historic is this? And if it's Dixon June, and 1401 01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:50,760 Speaker 1: it should if we at this end of June, this 1402 01:20:50,880 --> 01:20:53,599 Speaker 1: is biggest Nixon goes to China, it changes the game. 1403 01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:56,840 Speaker 1: America is back after a lot of bad years. You 1404 01:20:56,960 --> 01:21:01,040 Speaker 1: just can't make it up. There's nothing, nothing, nothing, in 1405 01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:03,519 Speaker 1: the minds of the mob and the media or the 1406 01:21:03,560 --> 01:21:06,559 Speaker 1: Democratic Party that Donald Trump can ever do right. Nothing, 1407 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:11,880 Speaker 1: And what they have done to first prevent him from 1408 01:21:11,880 --> 01:21:16,280 Speaker 1: winning and then to undo the election and whatever they're 1409 01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:18,800 Speaker 1: capable of this time in three hundred and one days, 1410 01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:22,160 Speaker 1: I can't even begin to predict based on what we 1411 01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:26,559 Speaker 1: now know occurred in twenty sixteen, all bets are off 1412 01:21:26,560 --> 01:21:30,639 Speaker 1: the table. I have no idea what these people are 1413 01:21:30,680 --> 01:21:34,960 Speaker 1: capable of, but this I know, in three hundred one days, 1414 01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:40,040 Speaker 1: regardless of what they do or don't do, you we 1415 01:21:40,479 --> 01:21:43,200 Speaker 1: the people have the chance to shock the world again. 1416 01:21:43,920 --> 01:21:47,120 Speaker 1: I will remind you daily we put up on Hannity 1417 01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:50,400 Speaker 1: dot com today.

It's America, as far as I'm concerned. 1425 01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:23,240 Speaker 1: On the brink, a new green deal that's ninety what 1426 01:22:23,439 --> 01:22:26,960 Speaker 1: four trillion dollars trillion with a tea in ten years, 1427 01:22:27,720 --> 01:22:30,280 Speaker 1: gets rid of you know, the lifeblood of our economy, 1428 01:22:30,360 --> 01:22:36,080 Speaker 1: oil and gas, the combustion engine. Everything else is free, free, free, free, free, unbelievable. 1429 01:22:36,160 --> 01:22:38,240 Speaker 1: Then we got Medicare for all.

They live on a dollar 1442 01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:22,040 Speaker 1: two dollars a day. What about them? Well, you know, 1443 01:23:22,160 --> 01:23:24,599 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest.

They got 1449 01:23:40,720 --> 01:23:46,839 Speaker 1: some pretty, you know, cool stuff military company, service vets heroes. 1450 01:23:47,400 --> 01:23:49,400 Speaker 1: I love those guys, So I'm gonna buy my stuff 1451 01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:54,440 Speaker 1: from them. That's my choice. I'll let you decide. Colin Kaepernick, 1452 01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:56,920 Speaker 1: I have no idea why they want to associate with 1453 01:23:56,960 --> 01:24:00,120 Speaker 1: the guy, but that's their choice.

Does that makes sense? That makes sense? 1458 01:24:09,960 --> 01:24:11,479 Speaker 1: We said. I had been in Strie, Lincoln when I 1459 01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:13,479 Speaker 1: was in the Navy and below it. Then I saw 1460 01:24:13,520 --> 01:24:15,840 Speaker 1: how poor it was, and I thought they respected the 1461 01:24:15,840 --> 01:24:18,040 Speaker 1: Americans there, and they loved us when we were there, 1462 01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:20,439 Speaker 1: and they treated us with respect, and I just couldn't 1463 01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:22,880 Speaker 1: understand why he would do this sort of thing, you know. 1464 01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:25,760 Speaker 1: But there you are. Well, thank you man for the call. 1465 01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:29,960 Speaker 1: Appreciate it. I'm over Kaepernick.

That's 1468 01:24:36,200 --> 01:24:38,920 Speaker 1: I'm just prioritizing in my brain what's more important to me. 1469 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:42,320 Speaker 1: Let's say hi to Joe. He's in the great state 1470 01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 1: of New Joysey. Happy New Year, Joe. Glad you're with us, sir, 1471 01:24:46,840 --> 01:24:49,519 Speaker 1: Hey Sean, I'm about sixty miles south of New Joysey. 1472 01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:54,560 Speaker 1: I'm in New Jersey South. It's always a privilege to 1473 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:57,559 Speaker 1: speak with you and I wanted to tell you, I'm 1474 01:24:57,720 --> 01:24:59,920 Speaker 1: your senator that you had on Fox Lace night kind 1475 01:24:59,920 --> 01:25:03,519 Speaker 1: of stole my thunder. But I just got to applaud 1476 01:25:03,640 --> 01:25:06,160 Speaker 1: him for his courage. I thought he was bold and 1477 01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:08,840 Speaker 1: honest when he said that the left would love to 1478 01:25:08,960 --> 01:25:14,080 Speaker 1: see another Benghazi. That was so courageous and honestly. I 1479 01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:18,559 Speaker 1: strongly believe there's a large political population on the left 1480 01:25:18,960 --> 01:25:21,439 Speaker 1: who would look forward to seeing something like that. Again. 1481 01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:26,240 Speaker 1: I believe the late general was scouting out well. I mean, 1482 01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:30,960 Speaker 1: you literally had a host on Area fifty one Roswell 1483 01:25:31,160 --> 01:25:34,160 Speaker 1: Rachel Matta. But she's losing it. All these people have 1484 01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:38,160 Speaker 1: lost it. They've lost They're so consumed with their rage 1485 01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:40,599 Speaker 1: and hatred. They don't even know how nuts they all sound. 1486 01:25:41,200 --> 01:25:43,400 Speaker 1: But over there Conspiracy TV, they had they had a 1487 01:25:43,439 --> 01:25:48,160 Speaker 1: host tweet out Trump's Benghazi. Then Trump bombs the crap 1488 01:25:48,320 --> 01:25:52,680 Speaker 1: and kills Solomony, and oh they don't they don't like 1489 01:25:52,840 --> 01:25:55,560 Speaker 1: that either. I'm like, oh, okay, because he was the 1490 01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,280 Speaker 1: guy that was orchestrating the whole thing, kind of a 1491 01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:02,240 Speaker 1: good reason to suspect he was that airport. I honestly 1492 01:26:02,280 --> 01:26:05,200 Speaker 1: thought he was scouting the place and feeling testing the waters. 1493 01:26:05,240 --> 01:26:09,559 Speaker 1: For another, the real invasion of the embassy and Trump 1494 01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:13,600 Speaker 1: squashed it. And I'd like to leave whoever's listening some 1495 01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:15,920 Speaker 1: to think about if they think I'm out of my 1496 01:26:16,080 --> 01:26:19,760 Speaker 1: mind thinking on these terms. If Hillary and Obama to 1497 01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:23,120 Speaker 1: turn their back on our military and our civilians, why 1498 01:26:23,160 --> 01:26:26,439 Speaker 1: shouldn't we even think that there are more leftists out 1499 01:26:26,479 --> 01:26:29,800 Speaker 1: there who are just as heartless and callous. Well, I 1500 01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:32,280 Speaker 1: gotta tell you, you know, one't the way to look 1501 01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:35,320 Speaker 1: at this. What if I have a question because I 1502 01:26:35,439 --> 01:26:38,320 Speaker 1: like the idea that you know, if Americans are in jeopardy. 1503 01:26:39,600 --> 01:26:42,960 Speaker 1: Let me backtrack. So the Manghazi heroes, I've gotten to 1504 01:26:43,040 --> 01:26:44,960 Speaker 1: know those guys. We had Mark Geist on the show 1505 01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:48,200 Speaker 1: last week last Friday when I came in. I love 1506 01:26:48,280 --> 01:26:51,880 Speaker 1: those guys. Those guys were in a CIA annex one 1507 01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:57,120 Speaker 1: mile away from the embassy where Ambassador Stevens and others died, 1508 01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:01,240 Speaker 1: and they know what's happening. They know the embassy is 1509 01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:05,040 Speaker 1: under fire, they know fellow Americans are under attack, they 1510 01:27:05,160 --> 01:27:08,040 Speaker 1: know lives are in jeopardy, and they're like, all right, 1511 01:27:08,160 --> 01:27:11,080 Speaker 1: let's go game on, get our stuff and go let's 1512 01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:15,680 Speaker 1: go defend our American family. Now, that to me personifies 1513 01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:20,120 Speaker 1: that defines courage. Then they're told to stand down, and 1514 01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:23,559 Speaker 1: they're like, what, we gotta get over there. Our guys 1515 01:27:23,600 --> 01:27:27,719 Speaker 1: are under fire, now stand down. They're told that, not once, 1516 01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:31,639 Speaker 1: not twice, three times. I think one of the guys 1517 01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:34,639 Speaker 1: said for at least three times they're told stand down. 1518 01:27:35,360 --> 01:27:38,960 Speaker 1: Then they're like, screw you. We're not letting our fellow 1519 01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:42,880 Speaker 1: Americans die. That's not who we are. Now. When you 1520 01:27:43,040 --> 01:27:47,400 Speaker 1: disobey orders, that means they were blowing up without any 1521 01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:52,960 Speaker 1: concern for themselves, their safety, or their career track. They 1522 01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:56,120 Speaker 1: were blowing the whole thing up. And they not only 1523 01:27:56,479 --> 01:28:01,600 Speaker 1: went and defied orders, but they successfully saved dozens of 1524 01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:05,280 Speaker 1: American lives. We would have lost everybody there had they 1525 01:28:05,360 --> 01:28:10,000 Speaker 1: not shown up. The cavalry showed up and they defended them. Now, 1526 01:28:10,720 --> 01:28:15,120 Speaker 1: if Americans are in the embassy in Baghdad and they 1527 01:28:15,160 --> 01:28:18,760 Speaker 1: are under fire, I'm kind of glad to know that 1528 01:28:19,040 --> 01:28:23,320 Speaker 1: this president acted quickly. And from what I'm told from 1529 01:28:23,360 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 1: my sources, the people that were there, when the President asked, well, 1530 01:28:27,280 --> 01:28:30,200 Speaker 1: how soon can we get our troops there to help them, 1531 01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:34,160 Speaker 1: the next words out of his mouth or that's not 1532 01:28:34,360 --> 01:28:39,479 Speaker 1: fast enough. I want it done faster I'm told that happened. 1533 01:28:39,640 --> 01:28:41,760 Speaker 1: One day, I guess hopefully the story will come out 1534 01:28:42,160 --> 01:28:44,519 Speaker 1: and confirm that I'm right again. I'm often right on 1535 01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:48,679 Speaker 1: these things, and they got there. We have the greatest 1536 01:28:48,760 --> 01:28:51,439 Speaker 1: military fighting force on the face of the earth. We 1537 01:28:51,479 --> 01:28:54,320 Speaker 1: have the greatest intelligence gathering capabilities on the face of 1538 01:28:54,320 --> 01:28:57,160 Speaker 1: the earth. The FBI is the premier law enforcement in 1539 01:28:57,200 --> 01:29:01,040 Speaker 1: the world. Well, Hannity, you aren't trusting the people inside 1540 01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:05,360 Speaker 1: the intel community for the last two years here, two 1541 01:29:05,400 --> 01:29:08,120 Speaker 1: and a half years, I'm like, no, I've been pretty 1542 01:29:08,200 --> 01:29:13,320 Speaker 1: clear in delineating between the ninety nine percent and the 1543 01:29:13,439 --> 01:29:18,919 Speaker 1: one percent. When our embassies are attacked, we better protect 1544 01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:23,559 Speaker 1: our fellow Americans and our interests abroad. And the idea 1545 01:29:23,800 --> 01:29:28,120 Speaker 1: that we're going to allow the Iranians to have impunity 1546 01:29:28,479 --> 01:29:32,439 Speaker 1: to kill Americans is not acceptable to me. But Hannity 1547 01:29:32,560 --> 01:29:34,320 Speaker 1: is going to lead to a boots on the ground war. 1548 01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:37,040 Speaker 1: Doesn't need to lead to a boots on the ground war. 1549 01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:40,599 Speaker 1: That's why, for a long period of time on this program, 1550 01:29:40,720 --> 01:29:44,120 Speaker 1: out on Hannity the TV Show, I've been championing one 1551 01:29:44,320 --> 01:29:48,040 Speaker 1: thing with the military, the next generation of weaponry, both 1552 01:29:48,080 --> 01:29:51,959 Speaker 1: offensive and defensive. I hope that explains it to everybody 1553 01:29:52,600 --> 01:29:57,760 Speaker 1: because I meet it. This is an evil, dark, dangerous, 1554 01:29:58,320 --> 01:30:04,200 Speaker 1: horrible world with evil people all around. America not perfect. 1555 01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:08,960 Speaker 1: We're kind of like the light among amidst the darkness, 1556 01:30:09,600 --> 01:30:11,479 Speaker 1: like Israel in the Middle East. You know you got this. 1557 01:30:11,720 --> 01:30:15,439 Speaker 1: There's there's one country. It's been on the fire an 1558 01:30:15,479 --> 01:30:21,439 Speaker 1: attack so often it's unbelievable. Your government and your leadership 1559 01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:24,360 Speaker 1: and the military or has vowed to take action against 1560 01:30:24,400 --> 01:30:30,280 Speaker 1: the United States. The United States violated three principles, Iraqi 1561 01:30:30,360 --> 01:30:34,320 Speaker 1: sovereignty and the agreement that they had with Iraq. They 1562 01:30:34,400 --> 01:30:37,880 Speaker 1: got a response from the Iraqi parliament. They violated the 1563 01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:40,920 Speaker 1: emotions of the people. They will get a response from 1564 01:30:40,960 --> 01:30:45,760 Speaker 1: the people. They killed one of our most revered commanders 1565 01:30:45,880 --> 01:30:49,320 Speaker 1: and most senior commanders, and they took responsibility for it. 1566 01:30:50,040 --> 01:30:53,000 Speaker 1: This is state terrorism. This is an act of aggression 1567 01:30:53,040 --> 01:30:56,599 Speaker 1: against it are and it amounts to an armed attack 1568 01:30:56,600 --> 01:31:00,640 Speaker 1: against it. And we will respond. But we will respond apportionately, 1569 01:31:00,920 --> 01:31:05,120 Speaker 1: not disproportionately, because we are committed to law. We are 1570 01:31:05,200 --> 01:31:08,479 Speaker 1: law abiding people. We're not lawless. Like President Trump, the 1571 01:31:08,600 --> 01:31:12,560 Speaker 1: United States believes that this beautiful military equipment. According to 1572 01:31:12,640 --> 01:31:15,920 Speaker 1: President Trump, that you spend two trillion dollars on these 1573 01:31:15,960 --> 01:31:20,240 Speaker 1: beautiful military equipment. Beautiful military equipment don't rule the world. 1574 01:31:20,680 --> 01:31:23,720 Speaker 1: People rule the world. People. The United States has to 1575 01:31:23,880 --> 01:31:26,880 Speaker 1: wake up to the reality that the people of this 1576 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:30,599 Speaker 1: region are enraged, that the people of this region want 1577 01:31:30,680 --> 01:31:33,960 Speaker 1: the United States out, and the United States cannot stay 1578 01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:36,840 Speaker 1: in this region with the people of the region not 1579 01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:40,040 Speaker 1: wanting it anymore. You know, it's like what we're saying here. 1580 01:31:40,080 --> 01:31:44,679 Speaker 1: Before you know, you got this Javadza Reef, the Iranian 1581 01:31:44,760 --> 01:31:47,519 Speaker 1: foreign ministers saying the US killing is Solomoni is an 1582 01:31:47,520 --> 01:31:50,680 Speaker 1: act of terrorism. No, they're the terrorist group or am 1583 01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:53,800 Speaker 1: claiming in the Mideast that they want the US out 1584 01:31:53,840 --> 01:31:57,320 Speaker 1: of out and Trump needs to apologize. We're not going 1585 01:31:57,360 --> 01:32:01,040 Speaker 1: to apologize. They should apologize, and they're not gonna do 1586 01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:04,040 Speaker 1: that either. They are they are married to a twisted, 1587 01:32:04,120 --> 01:32:07,000 Speaker 1: sick ideology. I wrote in the book Deliver Us from 1588 01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:15,840 Speaker 1: Evil in the last century alone, Hitler Stalin, fascism, Nazism. 1589 01:32:16,520 --> 01:32:21,040 Speaker 1: Now killing feels Cambodia. You got over one hundred million 1590 01:32:21,200 --> 01:32:26,560 Speaker 1: human souls dead, killed in the name of governments and 1591 01:32:26,800 --> 01:32:30,559 Speaker 1: darkness and evil. Now, I know it's hard to admit 1592 01:32:30,600 --> 01:32:32,960 Speaker 1: that there's evil all around you. And maybe you don't 1593 01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:34,720 Speaker 1: want to think about it every second of every day. 1594 01:32:34,760 --> 01:32:37,479 Speaker 1: I know I don't. One of the great things about 1595 01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:41,120 Speaker 1: living in the United States of America's we're free. We're free, 1596 01:32:41,160 --> 01:32:43,240 Speaker 1: and many have paid the price for us to be free. 1597 01:32:43,880 --> 01:32:46,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to lose that freedom. I don't want 1598 01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:50,520 Speaker 1: to lose that moral compass that has that has separated 1599 01:32:50,640 --> 01:32:53,320 Speaker 1: us from so many others because we have saved a 1600 01:32:53,400 --> 01:32:56,320 Speaker 1: lot of people's you know what, all around the world, 1601 01:32:56,439 --> 01:32:59,439 Speaker 1: because we are who we are. Can't save everybody, but 1602 01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:03,120 Speaker 1: we do our best, and we're generous people, and we've 1603 01:33:03,160 --> 01:33:06,439 Speaker 1: saved a lot of lives World War two.
