23
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 1: Syrian Dictator for Sure, all of a sudden launched a

24
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 1: horrible chemical weapons attack on innocent civilians, using a deadly

25
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 1: nerve agent Asade choked out the lives of helpless men, women,

26
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: and children. It was a slow and brutal death for

27
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: so many. Even beautiful babies were cruelly murdered in this

28
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 1: very barbaric attack. No child of God should ever suffer

29
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: such horror. Tonight, I ordered a targeted military strike on

30
00:01:55,520 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: the airfield in Syria from where the chemical attack Yeah

31
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: was launched. It is in this vital national security interest

32
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: of the United States to prevent and deter the spread

33
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: and use of deadly chemical weapons. There can be no

34
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: dispute that seal Will used burned chemical weapons, violated obligations

35
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 1: under the Chemical Weapons Convention, and ignored the urging of

36
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: the U N Security counts. Years of previous attempts at

37
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: changing the lad's behavior have all failed and failed very dramatically.

38
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: As a result, the refugee crisis continues to deepen and

39
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: the region continues to destabilize, threatening the United States and

40
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 1: it's lies. Tonight, I'll call in all futif nations to

41
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: join us and seeking to end the slurter and bloodshed

42
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: in Syria and also and caroled of all kinds and

43
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: all types. We ask for God's wisdom as we face

44
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: the challenge of our very troubled world. We pray for

45
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 1: the lives of the wounded and for the souls of

46
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 1: those who have passed, and we hope that as long

47
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: as America stands for justice, then peace and harmony will

48
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: in the end prevail. Good Night, and God bless America

49
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: and the entire world. Thank you all right, Glad you're

50
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: weather us. Happy Friday. That was the President making a

51
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: statement last night after in fact, fifty nine, some fifty

52
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: nine Tomahawk missiles were fired at the very launch pad

53
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: of where these chemical weapons were used by Syria against men, women,

54
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: and children earlier this week. You can hear a very affected,

55
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: very different President Trump there, just like we heard when

56
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: he was meeting with the King of Jordan Abdullah earlier

57
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 1: this week, and that issue came up, and the issue

58
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: of a red line came up over and over again.

59
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: You know, I've got to say it's pretty powerful statement here.

60
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: No child of God should suffer such horror. And the

61
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 1: President said that, and I'm following the comments and the commentary,

62
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: and everybody said, well, the President tweeted out that Obama

63
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 1: shouldn't know what is he doing. Okay, that's a fair thing,

64
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: but that's a fair criticism. He changed his mind after

65
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: seeing dead children that had been gassed. But if we're

66
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: gonna be fair and talk about changing minds and listening

67
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 1: to things that are said to us by politicians, why

68
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: don't we start the program. And I want you to

69
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 1: think about this in the context, especially of the Iranian

70
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: nuclear deal, which allows the Iranians to continue to spin

71
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: their centerfuges twenty five days before we give them inspections

72
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,600
Speaker 1: and and they get heads up on it. We don't

73
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 1: even get to have American inspectors, nor do we get

74
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 1: to inspect everything we want to inspect. And the and

75
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 1: the billions of taxpayer of dollars that he forked over

76
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: to this radical Islamic regime that has declared over and

77
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: over again that they want to destroy America, destroy Israel,

78
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: and they want a worldwide caliphate. That has been their

79
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: goal from the beginning. How right is Obama and his

80
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: insurance assurances that, well, the Iranians now they're they're limited

81
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 1: in getting nuclear weapons. Well, if we're gonna talk about

82
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 1: Donald Trump changed his mind on the issue of whether

83
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 1: or not there should be retaliation in the case of

84
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: the use of chemical weapons against men, women, and children.

85
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: You know, I'm having a hard time understanding the opposition

86
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 1: to this is this, he did everything that Trump said

87
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: he would do in terms of he didn't telegraph the move.

88
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: There's no desire clearly to occupy, but it's a message

89
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: stop using chemical weapons against innocent men, women, and children.

90
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: That there is a line that the world cannot toligrate,

91
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: which is it's bad enough. This ridiculous civil war has

92
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: gone on for seven years with no resolution at all,

93
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 1: being fomented by the way by Putin. Oh for all

94
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: the talk of the conspiracy Trump and the Russians, he

95
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: went dead set against Vladimir Putin last night and what

96
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: the Russians wanted because they have been propping up the

97
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: Assad regime that this entire time for their own political benefit,

98
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,480
Speaker 1: but if we're going to take the words of politicians,

99
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 1: which this is all that CNN and and NBC is

100
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,239
Speaker 1: fixated on, I flipped. I can't believe this is it. Okay,

101
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 1: let's listen to both. Let's listen to President Obama and

102
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 1: then we'll listen to John Kerry, and then we'll listen

103
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: to Susan Rice, and we'll listen to their words assuring

104
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: you the American people that Obama's line in the sand

105
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: got Syria and Assad to give up their chemical weapons,

106
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: which clearly isn't true because he used them again this week. Listen.

107
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: I think it was important for me as President United

108
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: States to send a message that, in fact, there is

109
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: something different about chemical weapons. Uh. And regardless of how

110
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: it ended up playing, I think in the Beltway, what

111
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: is true is Assad got rid of his chemical weapons,

112
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: and the reason he got rid of them was, well, look, uh,

113
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: if or those uh chemical uh stockpiles were eliminated, that's

114
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: a lot of chemical weapons that are not right now

115
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: in the hands of Isle or Nusra, or for that matter,

116
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: of the regime. The President made his decision to strike,

117
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: he announced his decision to strike publicly, and the purpose

118
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: of the strike was to get the chemical weapons out

119
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: of Syria. That's the purpose. We achieved a deal with

120
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: the Russians that didn't wind up in two days of

121
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,239
Speaker 1: strikes that would have sent a quote message but would

122
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: not have removed the weapons. We struck a deal to

123
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: get all of the declared weapons out of Syria. Never

124
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: before in a conflict has that ever happened, that during

125
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: the conflict weapons of mass destruction are taken out of

126
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 1: the zone of conflict. And thank god we did that

127
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: because if we hadn't done that, today Isel would have

128
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 1: those chemical weapons in large parts of the country. Because

129
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 1: in the meantime we were able to find a solution

130
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: that actually removed the chemical weapons that were known from

131
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,640
Speaker 1: Syria in a way that the use of force would

132
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: never have accomplished. Oh, the use of They just they're wrong. Now,

133
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: let's assume there is wrong about Iranian and the Iranian

134
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 1: deal as they are about what happened in Syria. Um. Now,

135
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: I understand the argument that rand Paul I, like Ranpaul,

136
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 1: Ranpaul is a constitutionalist and if there's gonna be further escalation,

137
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: you know, I understand the War Parisact, but you know,

138
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 1: using military forces not a declaration of war. I think

139
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: the hope of the president is this message gets sent,

140
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: gets sent loud and clear. I think the first thing

141
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: that you've got to recognize what happened last night is

142
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: is the President sent a message to the entire world

143
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: and Pyongyang in North Korea, and certainly the Iranians, and

144
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: certainly the Russians you know outside of them, and the

145
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 1: Syrians meaning Asad you know who is really upset about

146
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: what happened last night. Is the world going to sit

147
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 1: back and watch a modern day holocaust where children are

148
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: gassed before our eyes, with the images being shown to

149
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 1: the world, And I guess it's we're just gonna sit

150
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: back and not let and just let that continue to

151
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: happen and not try to stop it. I don't want

152
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: America to be the world's policeman either. I don't think

153
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: we have an ability he as a country anymore to

154
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: fight wars because they always become politicized. But we certainly

155
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: have the military technology and the ability and the strength

156
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: and hopefully the moral commitment that if we see dead

157
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: kids from chemical weapons, maybe we have to do a

158
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 1: little something to stop it, especially considering we were promised, oh,

159
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 1: there's no such thing as chemical weapons inside of Syria that,

160
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 1: of course by Obama and Rice and carry they lied.

161
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,839
Speaker 1: Now let's assume they're just as wrong on Iran. Oh great,

162
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: Now we've got a squared B squared equals C squared

163
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: because you've got radical Islamic terrorists that believe in a

164
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: worldwide caliphate now having nuclear weapons in their arsenal and

165
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: a promise of pledge and a commitment to destroy Israel

166
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: in the United States. That's not gonna work. And by

167
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 1: the way, you know, with all the talk about Russia,

168
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 1: you know, the biggest question coming out of last night's

169
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: missile attack was, well, why did Russian forces on the

170
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,439
Speaker 1: ground failed to deploy this state of the art missile

171
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: defense system that they had at that base, at that

172
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: very air base. They could have at least tried to

173
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,280
Speaker 1: blunt the attack. And I suspect when Trump, you know,

174
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: we we had an agreement where a military to military

175
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 1: agreement that if we're about to hit something, we give

176
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,199
Speaker 1: them a heads up so their soldiers don't die. That

177
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 1: we were committed by by by treaty and agreement to

178
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: do that. Last night, people say, wow, they gave them

179
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: my heads up. Now that's not what happened. But I

180
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 1: think when Trump, when our military talked to their military,

181
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: and Putin got that heads up that a launch was imminent,

182
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 1: that the attack was taking place, wasn't aimed at Russian personnel,

183
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 1: wasn't aimed at Russian assets on the ground. Well, Putin

184
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: didn't want a confrontation in spite of all the rhetoric

185
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: coming out of Russia today, and I think for obvious reasons. Now,

186
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: you know, Kim Jong un congratulates Assad just hours before

187
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: Trump's missile strike. I wonder if he's congratulating him now.

188
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 1: He sent a letter of congratulations to Syrian President Bashar

189
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: al Assad on the seventy anniversary of the country's ruling

190
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: Bath Party, according to Pyongyang's news agency. Well that was

191
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 1: sent just hours before President Trump bore the air strikes.

192
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 1: You know this, the world sees a different America here.

193
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 1: This is not America leading from behind. This is not

194
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: America seeking the U n approval. This is America acting.

195
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 1: This is America taking a moral stand. Uh. Nobody wants

196
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: a long term conflict. Why because it will be politicized anyway,

197
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 1: and we don't have the stature of the stamina. Were

198
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: not stature we don't have the stamina, you know, the

199
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: stomach in Washington to see through in any military conflict

200
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: of victory. Prime Minister net and Yahoo praised Trump back

201
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: Trump on the strike, as he always is a loyal

202
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,319
Speaker 1: and fierce ally of the United States. I don't think

203
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 1: it's by accident that the President recently met and very

204
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 1: very little attention was paid to his meetings with the

205
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: with the King of Jordan Abdullah, and the and the

206
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 1: President and General Alcisi of Egypt and the Crown Prince

207
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: of s out of Arabia, and and of course Prime

208
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: Minister net Yahoo and I've been saying that maybe the

209
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: one good thing that ever came out of the Obama

210
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: years in this ridiculous Iranian deal was the fact that

211
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:15,040
Speaker 1: a new alliance was created, Sunni Arab nations now aligning

212
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: with with the Israelis and partnering to stand up against

213
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: possible Iranian hegemony in the region, which of course is

214
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: their goal. And you know, Vladimir Putin wants his stew

215
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: just as Sad to stay alive. He probably needs to

216
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 1: get him out of Damascus and get him, as my

217
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 1: buddy Ali North wrote me last night, make him Eddie

218
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 1: Snowdon's roommate in Moscow. Alright, so I have insomnia, but

219
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: I've never slept better. And what's changed just a pillow.

220
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 1: It's had such a positive impact on my life. And

221
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: of course I'm talking about my pillow. I fall asleep faster,

Speaker 1: In the next half hour, we'll get to some phone

239
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: calls to some of the other news. There are ongoing

240
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: negotiations as it relates to healthcare. If we get any

241
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: developments on that will let you know. Um, I gotta

242
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: give praise where praises due. I have been very critical

243
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: of Republicans in Washington. I'm still piste off that they're

244
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: going away on a two week vacation, although that might change. Uh.

245
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: And they still haven't got a healthcare bill done after

246
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 1: eight years, which annoys the living daylights out of me.

247
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: But um, they did in the Senate. And I've been

248
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: critical of Mitch McConnell at times, but he did hold

249
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: strong as it relates to not giving a vote on

250
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: Merrick Garland, the number two you know today's Senate confirmation vote,

251
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: Neil gors It's the final vote was fifty forty five.

252
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: It wouldn't have happened had Mitch McConnell not invoked the

253
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 1: constitutional option. Now he had no other choice from there

254
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: was no choice, but you know, he could have caved,

255
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 1: I guess, but the rules don't apply equally, and there's

256
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: no reciprocity from Democrats, so he really didn't have a

257
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: choice anyway. The Republican Senate votes gave every Obama Supreme

258
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: Court nominee the upper down vote everyone every time Sonia

259
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:57,320
Speaker 1: saw to my arty one Elena Kagan sixty seven. Course

260
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: it's fifty forty five. But for the first time in

261
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: a couple of hundred years, for partisan reasons, they filibustered

262
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 1: Neil Gorst's. Neil Gorsts will be on the Court as

263
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: a Monday, So I gotta give credit where it is due.

264
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,120
Speaker 1: I did take a little shot on Twitter today against

265
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: the never Trumper people, because you know, there was so

266
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: adamant that Donald Trump is a liberal. Well, I don't

267
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: think the wall is liberal. I don't think his economic

268
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: plan is liberal. I don't think vetting refugees is liberal.

269
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: I don't think Neil Gorsich is a liberal based on

270
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: his background in his history, and Washington Post even said

271
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: in an article they put out that they think his

272
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: track record shows he's more conservative than Scalia. I can

273
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: only hope and pray. Sometimes you don't know. David Suitor

274
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: was probably the biggest disappointment in our lifetime, and probably

275
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: you know, my favorite justice on the Supreme Court now

276
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: is Clarence Thomas by far, and I hope that Neil

277
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: Gorsuch gets into that category. UM and Tom, Clarence Thomas

278
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: and and Justice Kalia. I mean, what they did for

279
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: this country, it's just an enormous service that is immeasurable

280
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 1: in terms of the damage that otherwise would have been

281
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: done by people that don't have the originalist philosophy, that

282
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 1: actually believe in separation of powers and coequal branches of

283
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 1: government and not citing foreign constitutions and legislating from the

284
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 1: bench or you know, coming up with crazy ideas to

285
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 1: justify insane decisions. All right, we'll continue your calls on

286
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: the other side to accountable. Sean gets the answers no

287
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: one else does. America deserves and know the truth about

288
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: Congress Alright now, until the top of the hour eight

289

290
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: maybe break a little format. And we have so much

291
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 1: on the plate. Neil Gorst's confirmed, We've got healthcare still

292
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: being negotiated, debated. I hope they come back from the

293
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 1: two week recess. That's my personal hope we had a

294
00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: terror attack if you missed it in literally in Sweden

295
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: again five Dead will update you in the course of

296

Speaker 1: second and I'll just do the radio show without a producer.

Speaker 1: You go right ahead. You're very welcome. You know. I

306
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: want you to think of one thing, and I don't

307
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 1: want America. What did I say after Iraq? I was

308
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,959
Speaker 1: a big supporter of the Iraq conflict, Iraq war. I

309
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 1: you know, you look at Vietnam. Fifty eight thousand Americans

310
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: are our treasure, our national treasure, our sons, our daughters, fight,

311
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: bleed and die, and then the war gets politicized in

312
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 1: Washington and we don't finish the job. The word One

313
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 1: of the worst things Obama ever did was was pulled

314
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: these troops out of Iraq without finishing the job, which

315
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: created the vacuum for ISIS, and that was his doing.

316
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 1: And then of course the rules of engagement and and

317
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 1: so on and so forth. That's why I got so

318
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 1: angry at these these tweets that were going out today. Well,

319
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:16,679
Speaker 1: Hannity tweeted Parker and ten and I'm like, yeah, okay,

320
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 1: Hannedy did tweet um something about yeah, something about it

321
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 1: says glad our arrogant president is enjoying his taxpayer funded

322
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 1: golf outing after announcing the US should take military action

323
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 1: in Syria. And I'm like, Okay, that's beyond dumb that

324
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 1: they're they're interpreting that as being that I'm taking a

325
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: different position today because I'm not their purpose. They're playing

326
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: Ted Copple to story my tweet. There's this article. The

327
00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 1: point was I was making. He's arrogant, he's lazy, and

328
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: his threats are meaningless. And Donald Trump, who really does

329
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: not want much military conflict, sees dead women and children

330
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: because of chemical weapons, and he decides to do something

331
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: about it. You know how deadly Saren gasses, you know,

332
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: you know, think the gas, the chemical and and what

333
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,199
Speaker 1: it does to people. They have five metric tons of

334
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 1: these things anyway, Americans asking the question, and my friend

335
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: Dr Mark Siegell Sarah saren gas is colorless, it's odorless,

336
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: and it kills people in minutes, and it disperses in minutes,

337
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,439
Speaker 1: meaning it can be blown away in the wind. It works,

338
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: you know, similar to the way pesticides due by blocking

339
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 1: the breakdown of of certain neurotransmitters leading to a rapid

340
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 1: build up of the chemical and the body. And saren

341
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 1: it is much more potent than any you know, insecticide

342
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,119
Speaker 1: that you might use, and it's found in you know,

343
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 1: five hundred times more powerful than cyanide. It is a painful, horrific,

344
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 1: evil way to die. It is potent, and it was

345
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: used again by Syrian president by shot Alissade. So at

346
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 1: some point you've got to say this is evil in

347
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:01,919
Speaker 1: our time. I'm here's the question I have for some

348
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: of you. I know it's not World War two. I

349
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:09,199
Speaker 1: know it's not the equivalent of six million Jews slaughters

350
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 1: and and so many millions of others slaughtered. My father

351
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: fought four years in the Pacific, and I know we

352
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 1: face evil in our time, and radical Islam is certainly

353
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: at the top of that list. But do you really

354
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 1: believe outside to say, the Russians and the Iranians and

355
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: the North Koreans Pyongyang in the Syrian government under Assan,

356
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 1: do you really think the world should just sit back

357
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 1: and watch kids get gassed and not try to do

358
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: something about it. I'm not talking about being a police state.

359
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about being the world's policemen. But I

360
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: am talking about learning lessons here. I am talking about,

361
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,679
Speaker 1: you know what, what is simple right and wrong? You know,

362
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: we look at some of the evil and horror throughout history,

363
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 1: and I don't That's what inspired me to write the

364
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: book deliver Us from Evil, you know, but you look

365
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 1: at some of the evil you look at I wrote

366
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: great detail about this in my book deliver Us from Evil.

367
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: That they were. You know, imagine being a Nazi soldier

368
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: at a death camp, pick anyone that you want to

369
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: pick at those Auschwitz whatever, and your job every day

370
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: is to get people off of trains, trains, keep them calm,

371
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: steal the gold out of their teeth and uh and

372
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: take their clothes, tell them to take in a shower,

373
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 1: and gas them and kill your fellow human beings. That's evil,

374
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: you know, seeing dead children. Gas is pure evil in

375
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: our time. And you know, for all these conspiracy theories

376
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 1: about Russia, well, the number one ally supported that has

377
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: propped up the Assad regime is Vladimir Putin's Russia, you know.

378
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: And you know you gotta understand a Moscow Iranian Damascus.

379
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: You know, you've got this, this trio of terror RR

380
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: is now on the verge hopefully of being unraveled. You know.

381
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 1: They they're that alliance. The one thing that Obama did

382
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 1: not intentionally, of course, is by his embracing the Iranians

383
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 1: and not having the courage to call out radical Islam,

384
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,120
Speaker 1: it created a scenario that was not possible nine years ago.

385
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: And that is an alliance that's been created with Israel.

386
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 1: An alliance that has been created with Israel and the

387
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: saudiast and the Egyptians and the Organians or Jordanians in

388
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: other words, that alliance now and you could see it

389
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: in this past week as the President met with the

390
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 1: President of and the General of of Egypt, President Elsisi

391
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:53,119
Speaker 1: and King Abdallah of Jordan's and prior to that, the

392
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 1: Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. I'm not a fan of

393
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: the Saudis well, I'm not a fan of any of

394
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,479
Speaker 1: these countries. The bravest person in the Middle East, by

395
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:04,360
Speaker 1: the way, is General Alcissi and and his words against

396
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:09,000
Speaker 1: radical Islam, well, you know, echo through the entire world,

397
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 1: having courage that Obama never showed. Um. By the way,

398
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 1: we have special guests in studio today and uh Linda

399
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,359

Speaker 1: date as my father died, by the way, after a

408
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: long and courageous battle with a with an illness. And uh,

Speaker 1: guys came in today. And and we want to just

412

416
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: be strong and hang in there. And it's just the

417
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 1: toughest thing in life when you lose a loved one.

418
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 1: And thank you Sean for doing that. I don't care

Speaker 1: what they say about you. You're all right in my book.

420
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: What do you mean? Just all right? And what you

421
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 1: told me about your friends? You told me they were upset,

422
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: they wanted to keep come see the show, and I said,

423
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,640
Speaker 1: absolutely can. They can come every day until they feel better.

424
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,679
Speaker 1: Do you guys want to come every day? Oh? They're laughing.

425
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 1: They listen every day. They might as will come here

426
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 1: in person, come and watch. I mean, what's the difference.

427
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: I look better in person right when I have you

428
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: so thin, shwan, very thin and smelt and you know,

429
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: like you work out on a regular basis. And your

430
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 1: mother tell about everybody that your mother got mad after

431
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 1: you call me man of Rexic. And first of all

432
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 1: of all, no, no, no, no, no, my mother got mad.

433
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 1: She's she's a rock, she like Gibralta. But she said,

434
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: I can't believe he just called you a fatty didn't

435
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: say you were fat. I said, fatty's in there, and

436
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: where am I? I'm in here? You're not fat at all? Well,

437
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: that's what i'd like to hear. There's actually nobody in

438
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: that room is fat. I mean, I'm just I'm just

439
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 1: saying it to try and be entertaining. You're very entertaining

440
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: after you call me manarexic, because that's entertaining. Okay, But

441
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 1: I work out, and I take care of myself and

442
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: I don't eat. Listen, if I don't had my way,

443
00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 1: I would eat breakfast. I would have sausage and bacon

444
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 1: and eggs and French toast and pancakes every morning when

445
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: do when does the cabbage? And I had my choice,

446
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 1: I would get what I used to get as a kid.

447
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 1: I get like these huge roast beef, lettuce, tomato Mayo heroes,

448
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,159
Speaker 1: and I'd eat the whole thing myself and and for

449
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: me like a normal man. I would have steak and

450
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:50,439
Speaker 1: vegetables and dessert and cookies and candies and and I

451
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: did all of that. I'd love to, but I can't.

452
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: I can't you because I'll be five hundred pounds. But

453
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: you work out now, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.

454
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: It was just something happens to your body as you

455
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: get older that it doesn't metabolize food like it used to. Unfortunately, See,

456
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 1: you want to be an old skinny man, an old

457
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 1: fat man. No, I don't. I want to be in shape,

458
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 1: because you know I do. I do have another job

459
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 1: on television. I don't think I can't go on the

460
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 1: air and be nine hundred pounds, so I'll go on

461
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 1: and be seven hundred. I's how you look good to me, brother, An,

462
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: he's anyway you are. We love you well, Julian, and

463
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 1: with all sincerity, we wish you guys the best. God

464
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: bless you guys. And uh, how are your friends with

465
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: this woman? I have no idea, but they have great taste.

466
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,199
Speaker 1: They have great taste. I agree. All right, let's get

467
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,919
Speaker 1: to our phones here on those Friday as I promised.

468
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,640
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna start with Joseph. He's out in California,

469
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,879
Speaker 1: the home of the thirteen and a half percent state

470
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 1: income tax. What's going on, Hi, Sean, thanks for taking

471
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,199
Speaker 1: much call, you know real quick. I just wanted to

472
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,120
Speaker 1: speak to your audience and let you know that my

473
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: background is that we are Christians from the Middle East.

474
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 1: I have relatives from Iraq, and I have wrote it

475
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: some series where do you ask for? And let me

476
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: tell you that right now, in my opinion, this is

477
00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: the worst thing we can do to attack the series

478
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:04,399
Speaker 1: armed forces because these the Syrian soldiers are fighting against

479
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 1: the terrorists. And I'm not getting it from CNN. I'm

480
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 1: not getting this from Fox News. With all due respected

481
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 1: Fox News. I'm getting this from my relatives on the ground.

482
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: The Christians are going to be the ones to suffer

483
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 1: the most. We did this in Iraq. Remember we took

484
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: sat down out of power. I have relatives that were

485
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: killed by Saddam. We run away from Iraq because of Saddam.

486
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: M John McCain does not have relatives that were killed

487
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: by Saddam. With all due respect to McCain and with

488
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 1: all due respect to you, Shan And I'm gonna tell

489
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: with all due respect, with all due respect to you,

490
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 1: I don't think there's anybody more in the media that

491
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 1: has talked about Christian genocide in the entire region than

492
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 1: us talking about the Ucedes and the Christians and what

493
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: is what has really become a genocide that the world

494
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 1: is ignored. I've talked about it at nauseum. We have

495
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: non Reign and Waya on this program often to talk

496
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 1: about it, and she's pleading with people for help and research.

497
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 1: I agree, and I have heard you speak about the

498
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 1: genefer and I thank you for that. I really want

499
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 1: to thank you for that. But right now, you know,

500
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: I'm a little emotional because what I see happening is

501
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: the same mistakes we ammitted in Iraq. We're going to

502
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: commit them in Syria. But Assad is not a good man.

503
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: But let me tell you something. And if you're comparing

504
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 1: to some of our politicians in America, he's the same

505
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 1: as some of our politicies over here. But compared to Isid,

506
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: compared to a Musta, compared to the alternatives, he's an

507
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: angel from heaven. We don't know for sure who did

508
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 1: this chemical attack. This man is a dog. Excuse me.

509
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 1: We do we do know our hang on, We do

510
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: know who did it. It was Assad. Our intelligence agencies listen.

511
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: I know I've been critical of the leaking, but that's

512
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: a very few people. But our intelligence agencies have been

513
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 1: very firm and in their analysis of where this came from.

514
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,479
Speaker 1: They've even been able to trace the exact location and

515
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: the flight plan of the plane that actually dropped the

516
00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 1: gas on these people, so we know where it came from. Um.

517
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 1: You know, look what's happening here is you've got Moscow, Tehran, Damascus,

518
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: and you've got you know, this trio of terror out

519
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: there that is now close to being unraveled. The only

520
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: other person I think we got to really worry about

521
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 1: at this moment is Pyong Yang. And if if the

522
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: President can somehow repair some of the damage in the

523
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 1: relationship with China in this way, Um, you know, things

524
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 1: can go better. If a Sad goes his Bullah will

525
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: lose their logistics lifeline from Tehran through Baghdad up the

526
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 1: Euphrates River, and there were Euphrates River Valley to Lebanon. Um.

527
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: I was talking to Colonel North about all of this.

528
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 1: So despite Nikki Haley's eloquence and so on and so forth,

529
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,200
Speaker 1: that the Russians will do their level best to block

530
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 1: any meaningful action in the U N. Security Council. But

531
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: look if if if let's say, the Aya Tollers threatened

532
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 1: to to close off the straits of hor Moves or

533
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 1: or any of these other areas, they're all gonna now

534
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,479
Speaker 1: get the Trump treatment. And I have no doubt that

535
00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: the President would have no problem bombing Iranian sights. And

536
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: if Putin wants to really challenge America, well there will

537
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: be consequences for him too. The world was put on notice,

538
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: and I think this new emerging alliances is pretty amazing. Anyway,

539
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 1: eight nine four one, Shawn told free telephone number. You

540
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program. Let's get

541
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: back to our phones, MICUs and Sarah Sota. Hey, Mike,

542
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: how are you good? Sean? Thank you for everything you're doing.

543
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: I got about forty they were all yours. Go. I'm

544
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: a retired military officer from the Air Force and I've

545
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: been involved with NBC New the Biological and Chemical for

546
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 1: a long time. I know what it is like to

547
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: suit up. The question I'm asking is the gentleman who

548
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: just called. I don't think he has the understanding that

549
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: we had a chemical weapons convention. No one is to

550
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: be stockpiling or making these nerve agents. Uh. Susan Rice

551
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: even said that there was no longer chemical weapons, and

552
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: then Russia even said there wasn't these are these are

553
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 1: a very very serious issue. It could affect the whole world,

554
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 1: including our troops that are presently over in that area.

555
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 1: I don't think people understand how bad chemical weapons. You

556
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: just don't die right away. You suffer and suffer and suffer.

557
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: I would not want to see the children in our

558
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: country suffer, including the old people. America listen, America's I

559
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 1: don't want occupation, I don't want a protracted war. I

560
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: don't want boots on the ground. But I don't want

561
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 1: America to lose all sight of what is moral and

562
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: right and decent in life. And dead children killed and

563
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: tortured and murdered with chemical weapons. That's a line that

564
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 1: that I can't, that we cannot as a country ignore you.

565
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,959
Speaker 1: It's like ignoring a modern day holocaust and sitting there

566
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 1: while I'm happy. Whatever the hell with everybody else. America

567
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: has has to have moral clarity, alright. Eight nine one,

568
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 1: Shawn told free telephone number. You want to be a

569
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 1: part of the program, h John Hannity Tuesday. Syrian dictator

570
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: for Sure also launched a horrible chemical weapons attack on

571
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 1: innocent civilians, using a deadly nerve agent ASAD choked out

572
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: the lives of helpless men, women, and children. It was

573
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 1: a slow and brutal death for so many, even beautiful

574
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 1: babies were cruelly murdered in this very barbaric attack. No

575
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: child of God should ever suffer such horror. To night,

576
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: I ordered a targeted military strike on the airfield in

577
00:33:55,680 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 1: Syria from where the chemical attack was launched. It is

578
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 1: in this vital national security interest of the United States

579
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:13,800
Speaker 1: to prevent and deter the spread and use of deadly

580
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 1: chemical weapons. There can be no dispute that Seill used

581
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 1: burned chemical weapons, violated obligations under the Chemical Weapons Convention,

582
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: and ignored the urging of the U N Security counts.

583
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 1: Years of previous attempts at changing the slot's behavior have

584
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: all failed, and failed very dramatically. As a result, the

585
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: refugee crisis continues to deepen and the region continues to destabilize,

586
00:34:55,640 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 1: threatening the United States and its allies. Tonight, I'll call

587
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: in all civilized nations to join us and sinking to

588
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:12,840
Speaker 1: end the slurter and bloodshed in Syria, and also to

589
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: end carrolls of all kinds and all types. We ask

590
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: for God's wisdom as we face the challenge of our

591
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 1: very troubled world. We pray for the lives of the

592
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 1: wounded and for the souls of those who have passed,

593
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,320
Speaker 1: and we hope that as long as America stands for justice,

594
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 1: then peace and harmony will in the end prevail. Good Night,

595
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 1: and God bless America and the entire world. Thank you,

596
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: all right. That was the President last night announcing why

597
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 1: he took the action that he did against Syria. I

598
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: thought a very powerful statement by the President. And obviously

599
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: things have changed and the world is taking notice that.

600
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 1: Among our many top stories today, we have Neil Gorsage

601
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 1: is now a Supreme Court justice. Also the battle over

602
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 1: healthcare and the negotiations continue, according to sources I have

603
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 1: on the ground. Will have an update later in the

604
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,359
Speaker 1: program on Susan Rice and the unmasking of people. And

605
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: now apparently Peter King, the congressman from New York, is saying, well,

606
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,400
Speaker 1: that's because they were looking at personal information having nothing

607
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 1: to do with national security. And we'll have more on

608
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 1: the terror attack in Sweden that took place earlier today.

609
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: Joining us now former Speaker of the House, New King

610
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 1: ridges with us as the speaker. Um. I watched the

611
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 1: President decisively take action last night, and I felt that,

612
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 1: you know, if the world is not going to respond,

613
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 1: two weapons of mass destruction, chemical biological agents being used

614
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: against men, women and children, and we don't send a

615
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 1: message that this is not something the world can accept.

616
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,720
Speaker 1: And he was willing to go against Russia, the ally

617
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,439
Speaker 1: of Syria to do this if this is and show

618
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 1: that we have a very different mindset in the White House.

619
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:05,919
Speaker 1: I don't know what will well. I think that that's

620
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 1: one of the reasons he had to do it. He

621
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 1: was faced with a terrible act, and an act which involved,

622
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:16,320
Speaker 1: as he put it, beautiful babies and children and women. Um.

623
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 1: He issued a strong condemnation, the Secretary of State issued

624
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,919
Speaker 1: a strong condemnation. But then you got to a point

625
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,799
Speaker 1: of saying, Okay, how's that different from Barack Obama? And

626
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,799
Speaker 1: if he had done nothing by this weekend, all the

627
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,280
Speaker 1: talk shows would have been that he's as weak as Obama.

628
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 1: And so I think he calmly had General um h

629
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 1: Armic Master and in the Secretary of Defense matters figure

630
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:48,359
Speaker 1: out an appropriate combat capability for a direct, immediate, relatively

631
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 1: narrow strike. And as he had said all through the campaign,

632
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,720
Speaker 1: the key is not to announce it, let it happen,

633
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 1: then describe it. Uh. And I thought it was very

634
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 1: telling that it didn't negotiate or asked the Russians for permission.

635
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,760
Speaker 1: They told the Russians on a military to military basis,

636
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,239
Speaker 1: we're coming in. You need to get out of the way.

637
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 1: Uh And the Russians did get out of the way.

638
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 1: So I thought it was as the first step. It

639
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 1: reminded me a great deal. In the newsletter I'm writing today,

640
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 1: um a game which productions is on the compared the

641
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 1: parallel between what happened with Ronald Reagan and the Gulf

642
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: of Sidra where we shot down to Livian aircraft and

643
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: sending a signal that we were back, and what Trump

644
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 1: did this week in sending the signal that we're back.

645
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 1: In both cases you have presidents following week liberal Democrats

646
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,959
Speaker 1: who talked a lot but did nothing. And in both

647
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 1: cases it sent a signal to the world of action,

648
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: not just talk. And I think in that sense that

649
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,719
Speaker 1: Trump has probably rattled a lot of people. Well, I

650
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:53,240
Speaker 1: think certainly North Korea, China, certainly Iran was watching. Here's

651
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,640
Speaker 1: what's fascinating. I wanted you to answer this question after

652
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 1: I played these cuts for you through the prism of

653
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:02,720
Speaker 1: the promises that the president then President Obama made about

654
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,800
Speaker 1: this horrible deal with the Iranians that this will prevent

655
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 1: them from getting nuclear weapons. Because I'm gonna play back

656
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,880
Speaker 1: to back here both Barack Obama and John Kerry saying

657
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,800
Speaker 1: that President Assad of Syria got rid of chemical weapons

658
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,399
Speaker 1: because of the Red Line. Listen to both of them.

659
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 1: And by the way, Susan Rice even said, but we'll

660
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: just play these two. I think it was important for

661
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 1: me as President United States to send a message that

662
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,720
Speaker 1: in fact, there is something different about chemical weapons. Uh.

663
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:35,280
Speaker 1: And regardless of how it ended up playing, I think

664
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: in the Beltway, what is true is Assad got rid

665
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,880
Speaker 1: of his chemical weapons, and the reason he got rid

666
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: of them was, well, look, uh, if or those uh

667
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 1: chemical uh stockpiles were eliminated, that's a lot of chemical

668
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 1: weapons that are not right now in the hands of

669
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 1: Isle or Nusra, or for that matter, of the regime.

670
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 1: The President made his decision to strike, he announced his

671
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 1: decision to strike publicly, and the purpose of the strike

672
00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: was to get the chemical weapons out of Syria. That's

673
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:16,359
Speaker 1: the purpose. We achieved a deal with the Russians that

674
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,120
Speaker 1: didn't wind up in two days of strikes that would

675
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 1: have sent a quote message but would not have removed

676
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: the weapons. We struck a deal to get all of

677
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: the declared weapons out of Syria. Never before in a

678
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:33,720
Speaker 1: conflict has that ever happened, that during the conflict weapons

679
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,800
Speaker 1: of mass destruction are taken out of the zone of conflict.

680
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: And thank god we did that, because if we hadn't

681
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 1: done that, today Aiel would have those chemical weapons in

682
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 1: large parts of the country. Very telling how wrong they were. Now,

683
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 1: let's assume that they're wrong on a ran for a minute,

684
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 1: and the Iranians Mullah's radical Islamis get nuclear weapons because

685
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,359
Speaker 1: of this ridiculous deal using the billions that Obama gave him.

686
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 1: That First of all, one of the things I think

687
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 1: that motivated uh Trump and motivated his team was that

688
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 1: both the Syrians and the Russians had lied. Remember, the

689
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,319
Speaker 1: Syrians had promised that they had gotten rid of all

690
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 1: the chemical weapons. The Russians promised that they had investigated.

691
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 1: In a sense, the Russians put their honor on the

692
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 1: line and said, trust us, we're telling you that the

693
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:26,360
Speaker 1: Syrians are now free of chemical weapons. So you had

694
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 1: clear evidence that both governments had lied. You then had

695
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: this terrible attack, killing children and babies, and and and women,

696
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:38,719
Speaker 1: um and and saring gas is a horrible way to die. Uh,

697
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 1: and so um, I think it was in that context

698
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 1: that they operated. There. There are two parts. That one

699
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 1: is liberals have a capacity to lie to themselves endlessly

700
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,760
Speaker 1: about reality. Whether it is Chamberlain lying about Adolf Hitler,

701
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 1: whether it is the Clinton administration lying about North Korea. Uh.

702
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,759
Speaker 1: This this wilful self to exception. And of course, the

703
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 1: the Iranian dishonesty UH dwarfs the uh Syrian dishonesty in

704
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: terms of John Kerry and Barack Obama just being totally distant.

705
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 1: You know, I think they probably lie to themselves. I

706
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 1: think they may even believe the lies because that's so

707
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: deeply embedded in their psyche. Uh. But what you have now,

708
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 1: and I thought it was a fascinating week. You you

709
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 1: had the President of Egypt come in, You had the

710
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 1: King of Jordan come in meeting with the president talking

711
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:36,520
Speaker 1: about the Middle East. You know, both those conversations included Assad,

712
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:41,440
Speaker 1: included Syria. You have the President taking a decisive action. Uh.

713
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 1: He takes it and announces it while he is in

714
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:51,879
Speaker 1: dinner involved with uh the Chinese Prime minister who's there

715
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 1: for dinner. Uh. So to whatever today the Chinese. One

716
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: of the signal signal that the US was back and

717
00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 1: that we were strong and that we were doing things

718
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 1: would hardly have been more vivid um and I think

719
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 1: you'll notice it around the world. There have been very

720
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:10,360
Speaker 1: positive reaction. Saudi Arabia has been positive, Jordan has been positive,

721
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,800
Speaker 1: Turkey has been positive, most of the Europeans have been positive.

722
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 1: Egypt has been positive. So there's a there's a pretty

723
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 1: big reference. The Iraqis came out today and we're positive

724
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: there's been a pretty big referendum saying you know, if

725
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: you're not Syria, Russia or North Korea, you probably Iran.

726
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 1: You probably think this is a pretty good idea. All right,

727
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 1: hang on, we'll continue more with Speaker Gangwich on the

728
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,080
Speaker 1: other side of this break care as we continue on

729
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:36,840
Speaker 1: this Friday. All right, as we continue with former Speaker

730
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:38,920
Speaker 1: of the House, New King Ridge is with us um

731
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,359
Speaker 1: your reaction as some of the other news that's going

732
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:45,720
Speaker 1: on today. Neil Gorst's, of course, the constitutional option used

733
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:49,440
Speaker 1: by Mitch McConnell and the Republicans in the Senate. I

734
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:51,239
Speaker 1: give them a lot of credit for standing up to

735
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 1: what was the first partisan filibuster in over two hundred

736
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,839
Speaker 1: years on a Supreme Court justice. So by the way,

737
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 1: you know, it's really funny. Schumer closes is out and

738
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,239
Speaker 1: the wallstre Journal is a great job with a toy

739
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,360
Speaker 1: on this. He closes out his final speech talking about

740
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: the bipartisanship of the founding fathers. Well, Jefferson presides over

741
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: the Senate for four years as the Vice President. Jefferson

742
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 1: writes Jefferson's Manual, which is the original rule book of

743
00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 1: parliamentary procedure. In Jefferson's era, there was no cloture. It

744
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 1: was all done by simple majority. And in fact, Jefferson,

745
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,360
Speaker 1: we are told during this period they didn't keep records,

746
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:30,240
Speaker 1: so we don't know for sure, but we are told

747
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,919
Speaker 1: that if you talk too long, Jefferson was simply ruled

748
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 1: that you aren't being Germaine and shut you up. I mean,

749
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 1: so when when people say, oh, look at the filibuster,

750
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 1: I'm writing a piece on this for next Tuesday as

751
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 1: my my newsletter next Tuesday that because it turns out

752
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,920
Speaker 1: it is Calhoun in defense of slavery who develops the filibuster,

753
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:50,759
Speaker 1: not until eighteen forty one. What do you think of

754
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:54,160
Speaker 1: getting rid of culture as it relates to the legislative

755
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:57,719
Speaker 1: movement in the Senate. I favorite, I didn't favorite till

756
00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 1: I started doing this historical research. The con stept of

757
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:04,920
Speaker 1: a supermajority to end debate occurs in nineteen seventeen. From

758
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 1: from seventeen eighty nine to nineteen seventeen, we did not

759
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:13,319
Speaker 1: have the requirement for a supermajority. In nineteen seventeen they

760
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 1: formalized the system. It's lasted exactly a hundred years, and frankly,

761
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: it's made it very hard for the Senate to function. Now.

762
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,359
Speaker 1: I know the senators won't like that because they're used

763
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 1: to the relative power that it gives individual senators. But

764
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 1: from the country's standpoint, I think it might be good

765
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,800
Speaker 1: to go back to operating the way it did under Jefferson.

766
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 1: And I said, ironically, you know, it's Schumer who's quoting

767
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,000
Speaker 1: the Founding Fathers because he doesn't know anything about history.

768
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,960
Speaker 1: But the Founding Fathers had a Senate which operated on

769
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 1: a simple majority. But you know, you know, the great

770
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 1: irony and all of that is you got show more

771
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: all over the place depending on who's in power at

772
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 1: any particular moments. So but you know what, the Democrats

773
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 1: don't play by the same rules. I mean Republicans, they

774
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 1: allow an up or down vote for somebody like Elina

775
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: Kagan as Sonia saw to Mayora Ruth pader Ginsburg, knowing

776
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:02,439
Speaker 1: they're getting a left wing radical activists on the court.

777
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: That same courtesy is not extended to the Republicans. So

778
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 1: I don't think they have any option. Democrats don't play fair,

779
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,399
Speaker 1: don't play by the same rules. So any argument that

780
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:12,360
Speaker 1: all this is going to come back to haunt you

781
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 1: is meaningless. But it would really alter the legislative side

782
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,680
Speaker 1: of this if in fact they could do healthcare without

783
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 1: worrying about reconciliation or needing culture right. Well, it's exactly

784
00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 1: and by the way, an easy way to think of

785
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 1: it is this, Republicans look for principles to explain rules.

786
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:31,759
Speaker 1: The Democrats look for power to explain rules. So Democrats

787
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,400
Speaker 1: change rules to fit the needs of power. The Republicans

788
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 1: get trapped into arcane arguments about about principle that have

789
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: no relationship to power. So one of the places that

790
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,319
Speaker 1: I am most offended by the Center rules is the

791
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 1: whole idea of reconciliation for healthcare, that that simple principle

792
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 1: that you have to fit into some weird straight jacket

793
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,359
Speaker 1: in order to pass something with with fifty votes plus

794
00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,840
Speaker 1: the vice president. That principle has totally screwed up trying

795
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,439
Speaker 1: to write a serious health bill because they keep trying

796
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:03,360
Speaker 1: to fit it uh into an arcane Washington legislative mess

797
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:05,799
Speaker 1: that simply doesn't work. And all of it's a myth.

798
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be that way. I keep hearing

799
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,759
Speaker 1: that there's these ongoing negotiations as it relates to healthcare,

800
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,799
Speaker 1: and they might be close to a deal. Um, it's

801
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 1: not going to be ideal, especially from my perspective. Um,

802
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 1: but at this point, is it something you start and

803
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 1: then begin the process of making it better and better

804
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,399
Speaker 1: or is it better to wait and and as you say,

805
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,799
Speaker 1: take away the whole culture debate an issue altogether. Well,

806
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:32,520
Speaker 1: if if I mean, I'd like to get it done

807
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:34,840
Speaker 1: as quickly as possible for a lot of different reasons,

808
00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:38,399
Speaker 1: one of which is, just as Obamacare keeps collapsing, it's

809
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 1: gonna hurt more and more people. Mean, there there are

810
00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:44,279
Speaker 1: now entire communities that have no effective insurance, and and

811
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 1: so there's a very profound reason to try to get

812
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,359
Speaker 1: this thing fixed. But at the same time, I would

813
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,839
Speaker 1: say to conservatives. It is never going to get better

814
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 1: than the House bill. You're not going to go to

815
00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,400
Speaker 1: the Senate under the current rules and get a better

816
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 1: deal than you're gonna get in the House. So, uh,

817
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 1: concertings need to be aware that I need to think

818
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 1: very carefully because the end game is not the House,

819
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,279
Speaker 1: it's not even the Senate. The end game is a

820
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 1: conference committee of the two bodies to send something back

821
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,400
Speaker 1: that can then be passed by both bodies and go

822
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,840
Speaker 1: to the President. Unless you think about that first, you

823
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 1: have no idea what what you're doing in all right,

824
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:20,880
Speaker 1: Mr Speaker, you're back from vacation. Are you still on

825
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 1: vacation working? Oh no, No, I'm busy with work right

826
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,879
Speaker 1: here in Washington, d C. Oh. I'm glad you're back. Well,

827
00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 1: hopefully we'll see it tonight on TV. Mr speaker, thank

828
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:31,799
Speaker 1: you so much. Eight nine four one Sean toll free

Speaker 1: telephone number. We continue all our stories today, the latest

830
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 1: on the serious strike. When we get back the terror

831
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 1: attack in Sweden once again, we'll have an update on

832
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:43,640
Speaker 1: that when we continue. Susan rice Gate healthcare debate continues.

833
00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 1: Neil Gorst He is on the Supreme Court as a Monday,

834
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:52,279
Speaker 1: we'll continue America Desserts and know the truth about Congress

835
00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 1: alright now till the top of the hour. One Shawn

836
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,360
Speaker 1: is our toll free telephone number if you want to

837
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 1: be a part of the program. So there was another

838
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 1: terror attack, more tragedy in Sweden, and this another car

839
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 1: bomb attack, and you have example after example. We have

840
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: gone over the statistics about how migrant crime and violence

841
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:17,520
Speaker 1: has been soaring all over Europe and in Germany and

842
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: in France, and in Great Britain and in Belgium, and

843
00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:24,360
Speaker 1: the statistics are shocking, and you talk about it. For example,

844
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 1: of the two D fifty one thousand criminal suspects across

845
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaker 1: the state in Germany, uh one and seven. Of the

846
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:35,239
Speaker 1: two D and fifty one thousand more foreign, and a

847
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,399
Speaker 1: lot of those were asylum seekers, and many of them

848
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 1: were refugees. In other words, this is a preview of

849
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:43,360
Speaker 1: coming attractions of America doesn't get control of its borders

850
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 1: and vet refugees that come from countries and cultures that

851
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 1: directly contradict our culture, our values are more rays as

852
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 1: a society. And I know some come with the best

853
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,319
Speaker 1: of intentions and they want to They certainly want to uh,

854
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 1: assimilate in the country, and they want the benefits of America.

855
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,160
Speaker 1: But you know, let me start with you. Remember, here's

856
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:06,640
Speaker 1: another attack in Sweden today. And remember when Donald Trump

857
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:10,680
Speaker 1: went out there and declared that, hey, pay attention, there

858
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:13,920
Speaker 1: are attacks in Sweden, and the media mocked him and

859
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 1: made fun of him and said, oh, he got that

860
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:18,239
Speaker 1: from Tucker Carlson. This is what he had said at

861
00:50:18,239 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 1: the time. Here's the bottom line. We've got to keep

862
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:24,600
Speaker 1: our country safe. You look at what's happening. We've got

863
00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:29,480
Speaker 1: to keep our country safe. You look at what's happening

864
00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:35,600
Speaker 1: in Germany. You look at what's happening last night in Sweden. Sweden,

865
00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:39,880
Speaker 1: who would believe this? Sweden, they took in large numbers

866
00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:43,680
Speaker 1: to having problems like they never thought possible. You look

867
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,480
Speaker 1: at what's happening in Brussels. You look at what's happening

868
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:51,280
Speaker 1: all over the world. Take a look at Nice. Alright,

869
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,680
Speaker 1: So the media made fun of it. Later that week,

870
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,560
Speaker 1: there was another attack in Sweden, and it had been

871
00:50:56,600 --> 00:51:00,080
Speaker 1: happening all throughout Europe, but the media just jumped on

872
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,920
Speaker 1: on Donald Trump. Now we also knew on this program

873
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 1: because Ammy Horowitz went to Sweden and literally was attacked

874
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 1: by immigrants when he was trying to interview them. Listen,

875
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 1: do you think that Sweden has a responsibility to adapt

876
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:19,279
Speaker 1: to the immigrants culture coming in? Definitely should a woman

877
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,880
Speaker 1: when they come here, address you know modestly, you know,

878
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 1: with pants and with with sleeves. Is that important if

879
00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:33,000
Speaker 1: you come drinking? Be obviously everybody he said, dist you know,

880
00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:39,160
Speaker 1: offer sometimes I said, we go to scare scar. Is

881
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:43,400
Speaker 1: it dangerous here? Sometimes? Sometime? Yeah. We found out exactly

882
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:46,280
Speaker 1: how dangerous when while we were setting up a shoot

883
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,560
Speaker 1: at a neighboring location, we were approached by five minute

884
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,760
Speaker 1: told to leave. While my crew took off, I stayed

885
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,920
Speaker 1: to simply ask why we had to leave because I

886
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 1: was still wired. We have the sound of what happened next,

887
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,279
Speaker 1: but how do we the problem to film here? I

888
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:12,839
Speaker 1: don't want to know why? What's the what's the why? Anything? Look?

889
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:15,160
Speaker 1: Look show me, let me show me what you got.

890
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:26,400
Speaker 1: I let you let go, I don't let go help.

891
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,480
Speaker 1: I was not the first person assaulted by gangs of immigrants,

892
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:37,440
Speaker 1: nor will I be the last. But women are taking

893
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 1: the brunt of the explosion of violence across Sweden. Alright,

894
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 1: So that was AMMI Horowitz and he joins US now

895
00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 1: along with Patrick pull Amy is a documentarian, Patrick national

896
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:52,839
Speaker 1: security correspondent for PJ Media and Amy this was you

897
00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:57,440
Speaker 1: literally now have made numerous trips. You joined the refugees

898
00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:00,239
Speaker 1: that we're going into Europe at one point. Then you

899
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 1: did go to Sweden, you did talk, you did go

900
00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:05,239
Speaker 1: to these migrant camps, you did talk to a lot

901
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:09,080
Speaker 1: of people, and you are chronicling the violence long before

902
00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:11,760
Speaker 1: the president made his remarks. And then the terror attack

903
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,440
Speaker 1: that happened that very weak, and then of course the

904
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,840
Speaker 1: one that happened today. Yeah, listen, I take no joy

905
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 1: in being president. I really don't. But the handwriting has

906
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 1: been on a wall, not just not just in Sweden

907
00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:28,880
Speaker 1: but all over Europe. Uh. It's it's clear, it's absolutely

908
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:32,479
Speaker 1: crystal clear. This, this violence that we're seeing is due

909
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:37,319
Speaker 1: to the increasing immigration into the European countries. Well, uh

910
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,440
Speaker 1: is not an offense. And and even today you were

911
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:43,200
Speaker 1: here calls for people in Sweden saying this has nothing

912
00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:46,520
Speaker 1: to do with the immigration policy. Uh, it's it's it's

913
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:49,240
Speaker 1: it bores the pathological and there really is no answer

914
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:52,360
Speaker 1: to it. I don't fully understand it. Yeah, Now, Patrick

915
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,560
Speaker 1: Pool we've been chronicling, You've been chronicling all of all

916
00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:59,320
Speaker 1: of the danger that exists for the citizens all across

917
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:02,759
Speaker 1: Europe as a result of the migrant crisis. And we

918
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:05,480
Speaker 1: have our own statistics here in this country. And the

919
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:08,880
Speaker 1: President has been trying to institute some type of vetting

920
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:12,800
Speaker 1: of refugees from overseas and extreme vetting for people to

921
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:15,719
Speaker 1: come from countries whose values directly contradict ours, and he

922
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:19,080
Speaker 1: has met fierce resistance and a strategy of judge shopping

923
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:24,279
Speaker 1: so that they can stop his his constitutional authority and

924
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 1: statutory authority of protecting the country, which is his main mandate. Sean.

925
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:33,840
Speaker 1: I recall here, just right after Thanksgiving, we had a

926
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:37,880
Speaker 1: ramming attack, just like we saw in Stockholm today, just

927
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 1: a couple of miles from you, on the campus of

928
00:54:40,120 --> 00:54:43,960
Speaker 1: Ohio State University. And the suspect in net case was

929
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:47,920
Speaker 1: a Somali refugee who would come to the United States

930
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 1: just a couple of years ago, and that kind of

931
00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 1: illustrates the problem. Sean. You might recall back last summer

932
00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 1: we talked about and I actually ran the numbers in Europe.

933
00:54:57,040 --> 00:55:00,400
Speaker 1: We were looking at a terror attack every four hours

934
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:03,759
Speaker 1: um and we talked about that on your program. Now

935
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:07,920
Speaker 1: we're seeing a terror attack nearly every day. Uh. This

936
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 1: week we've had St. Petersburg, we had an incident in

937
00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:15,440
Speaker 1: Paris were a refugee through a Jewish woman off the balcony.

938
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:19,160
Speaker 1: We had the ramming attack in Israel. Yesterday they killed

939
00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:22,040
Speaker 1: an id F soldier. Uh, there was a snabbing attack

940
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:26,200
Speaker 1: in Australia. In today we have Stockholm, and yet the authorities,

941
00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:29,040
Speaker 1: not just in Europe but even through the United States. UM,

942
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 1: there's just no recognition of how bad the problem is.

943
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:36,920
Speaker 1: We know how bad the problem is because we have

944
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 1: the statistics and illegal immigration is not far behind either.

945
00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 1: And you know, it's amazing to me as we debate

946
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:47,920
Speaker 1: these very simplistic methods of protecting our homeland. You know,

947
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: I don't understand where the fierce resistance is when you know,

948
00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:55,320
Speaker 1: when I sit through a security briefing that Obama himself

949
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:58,280
Speaker 1: should have been sitting through in in Texas with those

950
00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:01,200
Speaker 1: brave men and women that secure borders, and they describe

951
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:05,839
Speaker 1: a seven year period of time where crimes including the

952
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:10,040
Speaker 1: most heinous, including some murders and some rapes, some petty crimes,

953
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:13,400
Speaker 1: a lot of drug crimes, are are perpetrated against just

954
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:16,359
Speaker 1: the people of Texas. You would think people would take

955
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:18,760
Speaker 1: notice and realize, you know what, protecting our border, vetting

956
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:20,960
Speaker 1: people before they come in here is just simple, basic

957
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 1: common sense. You know, when you interview the mothers who

958
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 1: lost their sons or the fathers that lost their sons

959
00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:29,960
Speaker 1: and daughters because of illegal immigrants that had even been

960
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 1: in jail before. And I think of one father in

961
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 1: particular who lost his son and his son was working

962
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: overnight in a convenience store and then we find out

963
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:39,960
Speaker 1: that the guy was an illegal immigrant that had spent

964
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:42,280
Speaker 1: a lot of time in jail for kidnapping and raping

965
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 1: a woman, kidnapping her for an entire week. To me,

966
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 1: unless you're the victim, I guess it's easy to sit

967
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:50,759
Speaker 1: on the sidelines and say, oh, let's let's let's be

968
00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:55,720
Speaker 1: kind and loving. And this is racist and xenophobic. I mean, um,

969
00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:59,120
Speaker 1: you're seeing and chronicling real violence. Both of you are

970
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 1: mean in your document. Nies. Yeah, listen, here's the thing,

971
00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:05,040
Speaker 1: and I think you hit it on the head. The

972
00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:09,520
Speaker 1: issue is why is the left condemning the reaction that

973
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,439
Speaker 1: we're having, And the reason is very confusing at all.

974
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,960
Speaker 1: It goes against their narrative of cultural relativity. And if

975
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:19,120
Speaker 1: you're gonna say that bringing in large amounts of let's say,

976
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,720
Speaker 1: refugees from Syria is gonna have a delarious offenior society

977
00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:26,520
Speaker 1: that's specifically going against their narrative cultur relativity. How can

978
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 1: you say that we're all the saying. They're saying every

979
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:33,880
Speaker 1: single culture, moral difference between the culture is the problem

980
00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:37,840
Speaker 1: bringing in more as Syrian is lava refugees, refugees or whatever.

981
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:43,720
Speaker 1: So that's why they're so so certainly, Yeah, we're losing

982
00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: to you on a Patrick, Why don't you pick it up.

983
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 1: We'll give your last thoughts here, then we'll get to

984
00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:50,280
Speaker 1: our phone calls eight D nine one, Sean, go ahead, Sean.

985
00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:53,320
Speaker 1: Last night I ran the numbers, and since January twenty,

986
00:57:53,640 --> 00:58:00,160
Speaker 1: we've admitted another one thousand, three h Syrian refugees. And

987
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:05,040
Speaker 1: and we know that this extreme vetting process has massive holes.

988
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:07,280
Speaker 1: And as we saw in the case served with the

989
00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 1: Ohio State Atchech, I mean that refugee, Somali refugee had

990
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:15,640
Speaker 1: been subjected to extreme vetting. Three years later, he's running

991
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:19,440
Speaker 1: down people on you know, one of our largest college campuses.

992
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:22,760
Speaker 1: This is a problem that's not going away. It's expanding,

993
00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 1: and that's what we're seeing in Europe here this week.

994
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:28,000
Speaker 1: You know, we could just warn people so much. I mean,

995
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,360
Speaker 1: we're sitting here on the sidelines and and we get

996
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:33,040
Speaker 1: brutalized all over social media because we want to keep

997
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 1: the American people safe. I mean, we'll give you the

998
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:36,960
Speaker 1: last word. I think we've got a better line. Yeah, Well,

999
00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:40,720
Speaker 1: hopefully the reality is just like like I said before,

1000
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,880
Speaker 1: it goes against the narrative of the left, that of

1001
00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 1: cultural relativity, and therefore they cannot fit abide by us

1002
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,280
Speaker 1: saying as a problem with bring in refugees. If all

1003
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:53,280
Speaker 1: culture the same, all cultures have the same morality, there

1004
00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:56,280
Speaker 1: shouldn't be any problem with bringing in here refugees. That's

1005
00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:59,240
Speaker 1: the problem. That's the narrative that they're they're they're portraying,

1006
00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,640
Speaker 1: and that's the narrative have to flit against. Al Right, guys,

1007
00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:04,439
Speaker 1: thank you both for all that you're saying and taking

1008
00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:07,000
Speaker 1: a strong stand there. Well. The full coverage of the

1009
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:10,440
Speaker 1: very latest on Hannity Tonight tent Eastern on the Fox

1010
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:16,560
Speaker 1: News Channel, bringing jobs back to America and getting America

1011
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 1: back door Shaw al Right, News round up information overload,

1012
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:26,320
Speaker 1: busy newsday today. If you're just joining us, getting in

1013
00:59:26,360 --> 00:59:28,760
Speaker 1: your car headed on home, Happy Friday. I don't even

1014
00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:31,960
Speaker 1: think we have time for our Friday concert series with Florida,

1015
00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:34,400
Speaker 1: Georgia Lime. We'll try, We'll think about it. Neil gore

1016
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:36,920
Speaker 1: Citch is now on the U. S. Supreme Court the

1017
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:42,080
Speaker 1: Constitutional option. Major props. Kudos to uh Mitch McConnell and

1018
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:44,440
Speaker 1: the Republicans in the U. S. Senate. I mean, I'm

1019
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:46,280
Speaker 1: very critical when they don't have a backbone, so I

1020
00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,000
Speaker 1: might as well say they did everything right here, starting

1021
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:52,080
Speaker 1: with not going forward with Merrick Garland, which would have

1022
00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:54,800
Speaker 1: been a disaster. Other big news were following up on

1023
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 1: the serious strike from last night, very successful decisive action

1024
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 1: by President Trump. The hell Care bill is not dead.

1025
01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 1: My hope is they come back during their two week

1026
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:07,160
Speaker 1: recess and try and get this done. Considering if they

1027
01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:09,000
Speaker 1: come back on the twenty four, they've got to deal

1028
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,360
Speaker 1: with a quote government shutdown crisis on the twenty eight,

1029
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:15,760
Speaker 1: so that wouldn't be good timing. And we are also

1030
01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 1: as you know, from the last hour, we were talking

1031
01:00:18,880 --> 01:00:21,720
Speaker 1: about what was happening in the terror attack in Sweden,

1032
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:24,120
Speaker 1: but one thing we can't get off the table today

1033
01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:26,800
Speaker 1: is the follow up to the Susan Rice scandal. I

1034
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:29,960
Speaker 1: mean it just at this point the admission, I mean

1035
01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:33,840
Speaker 1: Peter King now coming out with his his information, and

1036
01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:36,520
Speaker 1: others now saying they weren't interested, that this wasn't the

1037
01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:39,320
Speaker 1: amasking by Susan Rice that she admitted to, which he

1038
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:41,440
Speaker 1: didn't admit to two weeks ago when she said she

1039
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:44,600
Speaker 1: knew nothing. The fact that she is unmasking people that

1040
01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 1: had nothing to do with national security proves the point

1041
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:49,960
Speaker 1: that I've been making for a long time. Under the

1042
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 1: guise of national security, this was an attempt to literally

1043
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:59,120
Speaker 1: weaponize the intelligence gathering of our agencies and politicized intelligence

1044
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:01,800
Speaker 1: for political purpose. The reports at the center of the

1045
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:05,840
Speaker 1: unmasking controversy were detailed, and as Peter King said, they

1046
01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:09,760
Speaker 1: almost resembled a private investigator's file. And he goes on

1047
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:13,160
Speaker 1: to say, you know, according to him, he's being familiar

1048
01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:17,400
Speaker 1: with the documents. He said, the information about their everyday lives. Well,

1049
01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 1: why would that need any type of unmasking? What Peter

1050
01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:23,920
Speaker 1: King is saying, and he's on the House Intelligence Committee,

1051
01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:26,840
Speaker 1: he said, it's sort of like a divorce case. Whether

1052
01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:30,160
Speaker 1: the lawyers are hired, investigators are hired just to find

1053
01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:33,120
Speaker 1: out what the other person's doing morning until night and

1054
01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:35,440
Speaker 1: then you try to piece it together later on. Well,

1055
01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:37,040
Speaker 1: what is he saying there. He's saying that it has

1056
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:39,840
Speaker 1: nothing to do with national security. He's saying this is

1057
01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:43,440
Speaker 1: an abuse of intelligence gathering. He's saying that this was

1058
01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 1: done for personal vendetta reasons, and that is information about

1059
01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:50,160
Speaker 1: the everyday live so they were talking with orhere they

1060
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:53,720
Speaker 1: were meeting, where they were going to eat, really nothing

1061
01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:58,320
Speaker 1: of any substance of value, unless you're just trying to, uh,

1062
01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 1: you know, lay out a dacier in somebody, sort of

1063
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:04,200
Speaker 1: like in a divorce case where a lawyers are highed

1064
01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:06,040
Speaker 1: or investigating a high to just find out why the

1065
01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,080
Speaker 1: person is doing the morning to night and then you

1066
01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:10,800
Speaker 1: try to piece it together later on. Alright, So joining

1067
01:02:10,880 --> 01:02:12,560
Speaker 1: us now to get into this one of our other

1068
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:15,440
Speaker 1: top stories tonight, Susan Rice, Where does this go? Lieutenant

1069
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 1: Colonel Buzz Patterson, Remember he carried the nuclear football for

1070
01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:21,880
Speaker 1: President Clinton and worked with Susan Rice for two years.

1071
01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:24,880
Speaker 1: Kirk Weeby is with US former senior analysts for the

1072
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:27,480
Speaker 1: n S A. Nick Irvine is with us, author of

1073
01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 1: Way of the Reaper, my greatest untold missions in the

1074
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:34,439
Speaker 1: art of being a sniper, former Army ranger. His unit,

1075
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:37,200
Speaker 1: by the way, is currently in Syria. And uh, thank

1076
01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:39,840
Speaker 1: you all for being with us, um buzz, because you

1077
01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:44,360
Speaker 1: worked with her and you said he's dishonest and based

1078
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:46,920
Speaker 1: on what she said two weeks ago, now that we

1079
01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:50,080
Speaker 1: know she's admitted to unmasking and requesting the unmasking of

1080
01:02:50,200 --> 01:02:54,280
Speaker 1: Donald Trump and transition team members, and then Peter King's comments,

1081
01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 1: what do you interpret from that? Well, you talked about

1082
01:02:57,400 --> 01:03:00,840
Speaker 1: before yesterday time. She's just the political operative um and

1083
01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:04,200
Speaker 1: she's very just honest led throughout her career, going back

1084
01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:06,120
Speaker 1: to my time in the White House having to work

1085
01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:07,880
Speaker 1: for her. You know, she's just lying about whether or

1086
01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:11,920
Speaker 1: not the embassies in Kenya and Tanzania had appropriate amount

1087
01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:14,959
Speaker 1: of security. Of course, she stall outside bomb and killed

1088
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,480
Speaker 1: hundred people in those embassies. She's also the person to

1089
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:21,440
Speaker 1: eventum Donald's I'm sorry Bill Clinton not to take some

1090
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:24,240
Speaker 1: of them laden that a testied back. You know what

1091
01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:27,840
Speaker 1: happened to that place five years later. So she's beat

1092
01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:29,640
Speaker 1: the political opposity. In fact, if you go back and

1093
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,520
Speaker 1: look at her educational background for someone who brings to

1094
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,640
Speaker 1: be a national security expert. Her degrees um are actually

1095
01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:40,240
Speaker 1: in philosophy in history, and she's been running point policy

1096
01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:44,360
Speaker 1: campaign for Democratic candidates in president now on on the

1097
01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 1: base though uh they're very flimsy liberal arts degrees. All right,

1098
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:49,720
Speaker 1: let me go to you because I think what you're

1099
01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,040
Speaker 1: saying is really really important. I mean, she's probably the

1100
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,240
Speaker 1: least qualified, but approves our point. She's a political operative

1101
01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:58,200
Speaker 1: through and through always has been. Never had the background

1102
01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:01,000
Speaker 1: or experienced actually do this job and do it right,

1103
01:04:01,040 --> 01:04:03,400
Speaker 1: and it answers a lot of questions about how things

1104
01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:06,680
Speaker 1: have spuns so out of control and spiraled out of control.

1105
01:04:06,960 --> 01:04:09,600
Speaker 1: All right, So, as a former analyst Kirk for the

1106
01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:13,480
Speaker 1: n S A, can you can you you know this process?

1107
01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:17,200
Speaker 1: We're talking about raw intelligence gathering and we're talking about

1108
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:22,360
Speaker 1: individuals within an administration purposely seeking out that information about

1109
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:25,840
Speaker 1: political opposition a candidate Trump and a president elect Trump

1110
01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:28,560
Speaker 1: and his transition team. Um, can you think of any

1111
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:31,760
Speaker 1: reason why they would do this other than it being political?

1112
01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:37,760
Speaker 1: Absolutely not? Uh? Sean it Uh, it's absolutely clear to

1113
01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:42,200
Speaker 1: me that that there's a conspiracy at work here. I know,

1114
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:45,320
Speaker 1: people don't like that word. But ever, if there ever

1115
01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:48,560
Speaker 1: was one, we're looking at it. It would take three

1116
01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:53,200
Speaker 1: to five people working with her to pull this off.

1117
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:59,720
Speaker 1: In terms of getting people to break their personal obligation

1118
01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:05,320
Speaker 1: ooths to uphold the constitution. We have people actually processing

1119
01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 1: voice data phone calls. And when I say processing, that

1120
01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:14,440
Speaker 1: means listening to it, usually through headphones, and then typing

1121
01:05:14,440 --> 01:05:19,680
Speaker 1: out the conversation or a summary of a conversation, any

1122
01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:25,560
Speaker 1: share able form, probably a computer software something like Microsoft

1123
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,840
Speaker 1: Word or a government equivalent, and putting it in a

1124
01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:32,560
Speaker 1: database to be shared with others. Now, what we've heard

1125
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:36,960
Speaker 1: is that there are so many restrictions and constraints and procedures.

1126
01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:40,240
Speaker 1: How in the world would that happen with the cooperation

1127
01:05:40,440 --> 01:05:43,480
Speaker 1: of a small number of people. Well, it has to

1128
01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,680
Speaker 1: be Remember remember Sarah Carter's reporting on this is that

1129
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:50,960
Speaker 1: they loosen the rules as of eleven as it relates

1130
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:54,600
Speaker 1: to unmasking. And then I think the the change in

1131
01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 1: the language and the ability to share with sixteen additional

1132
01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:02,120
Speaker 1: agencies fourteen days before brock Obama left office that allowed

1133
01:06:02,160 --> 01:06:05,320
Speaker 1: the widespread dissemination of this information. And I think we

1134
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:08,600
Speaker 1: know because they wanted to create this narrative about Russia,

1135
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:11,320
Speaker 1: and and obviously they did it. But if somebody went

1136
01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:14,280
Speaker 1: into a secure area, and I think this is most important, Kirk,

1137
01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:18,320
Speaker 1: and they did seek to get information, raw intelligence and

1138
01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:20,720
Speaker 1: listen to it. And let's say it was on a

1139
01:06:20,760 --> 01:06:24,160
Speaker 1: political opposition party or a transition team, and they did

1140
01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:28,880
Speaker 1: unmask the individuals involved. How frequent was that an occurrence

1141
01:06:28,920 --> 01:06:34,360
Speaker 1: when you were there? Um, I cannot speak to that directly, Sean,

1142
01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:39,720
Speaker 1: as I did not work directly in that particular area.

1143
01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:43,360
Speaker 1: But I would tell you that the whole purpose of

1144
01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:48,320
Speaker 1: the intelligence community is to answer to a specific list

1145
01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:54,840
Speaker 1: of national intelligence requirements n r L N s r

1146
01:06:55,080 --> 01:06:59,320
Speaker 1: l S, National second Requirements listing. These are put together

1147
01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:03,960
Speaker 1: by bureau crats at the most senior levels, including representatives

1148
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:06,960
Speaker 1: of the White House, to ensure that the military, that

1149
01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:09,680
Speaker 1: the political people get what they need. In the way

1150
01:07:09,720 --> 01:07:12,120
Speaker 1: of intelligence. You just don't pick up the phone and

1151
01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:14,160
Speaker 1: say hey, I need this now. You might be able

1152
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:16,959
Speaker 1: to get away with that in a wartime scenario where

1153
01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:19,600
Speaker 1: you have stuff moving quickly, but when you have a

1154
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:24,720
Speaker 1: standing requirement to monitor something over weeks and months, as

1155
01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:28,280
Speaker 1: we know what happened here with the Trump transition team,

1156
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:31,800
Speaker 1: going back what a year. We know there would have

1157
01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:35,600
Speaker 1: to be a standing requirement unless you have people cheating

1158
01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:38,080
Speaker 1: the system. And you're saying also that it had to

1159
01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:40,800
Speaker 1: be the This had to be at the level of

1160
01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:45,240
Speaker 1: either say Brennan or Clapper. It had to be with

1161
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:50,040
Speaker 1: their knowledge and approval. It's it's not possible without right, right,

1162
01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:53,280
Speaker 1: And and what are the odds that the president got

1163
01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:59,640
Speaker 1: briefed on all of this? Not good? It's not good

1164
01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:02,800
Speaker 1: that he You mean he probably did well, he got

1165
01:08:02,800 --> 01:08:05,400
Speaker 1: briefed about the cheating, but not that, not when it

1166
01:08:05,480 --> 01:08:09,080
Speaker 1: was happening. No, it was all hidden. Yeah, probably true?

1167
01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:12,120
Speaker 1: All right? You know, Nick, I know as the your

1168
01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:15,640
Speaker 1: greatest untold missions the art of being a sniper. Uh,

1169
01:08:15,680 --> 01:08:18,760
Speaker 1: you fascinate me. I mean the fact that you can

1170
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:23,200
Speaker 1: have that calm under pressure and and do such important

1171
01:08:23,240 --> 01:08:27,679
Speaker 1: work that save so many American troops in their lives. Um,

1172
01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:30,960
Speaker 1: do you use a lot of intelligence gathering in the

1173
01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:35,519
Speaker 1: process of doing that job? Correct? Exactly? Tons of it?

1174
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:37,880
Speaker 1: All right? So you know something a little bit about

1175
01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:41,320
Speaker 1: this process? Well, can you tell us? Uh? From my

1176
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,799
Speaker 1: job and what we do is there's something called building

1177
01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:46,640
Speaker 1: a pattern of life, and we do that to two

1178
01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:50,240
Speaker 1: bad guys, terrorists, and that involves, you know, watching and

1179
01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:52,760
Speaker 1: listening to everything that they do day in and day out,

1180
01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 1: day until night for a certain amount of time until

1181
01:08:56,439 --> 01:08:59,479
Speaker 1: we get a certain pattern on that individual in case

1182
01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:01,400
Speaker 1: I have to go out or my team has to

1183
01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:04,439
Speaker 1: go out and intercept that target by a long range shot,

1184
01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:07,240
Speaker 1: are by up close and personal, we know exactly what

1185
01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:09,800
Speaker 1: that person is going to be at what specific time.

1186
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:12,400
Speaker 1: They've built a pattern of life, and that's you can

1187
01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 1: you can change it up whatever way you want to.

1188
01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:16,320
Speaker 1: But it's kind of hard to beat this system. And

1189
01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:20,360
Speaker 1: we do that to two bad guys. Yeah. How how

1190
01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:23,519
Speaker 1: far is the longest shot you kill? Shot you've ever made?

1191
01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:27,479
Speaker 1: My furtherest shot ever made was on the steel target

1192
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:29,680
Speaker 1: at two thousand and twenty two yards one point one

1193
01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:33,000
Speaker 1: two miles my furthest shot in combat was just over

1194
01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:37,960
Speaker 1: a half a mile five yards over. Wow, unbelievable. UM,

1195
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:41,280
Speaker 1: you know how real when we watch movies like American Sniper?

1196
01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:45,519
Speaker 1: How real is that? Um? I think it captures the

1197
01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:47,840
Speaker 1: mindset and the position many of the guys are put

1198
01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:50,120
Speaker 1: in when they do get out. Um, we talk about

1199
01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:52,640
Speaker 1: the v A and healthcare system and stuff like that.

1200
01:09:52,680 --> 01:09:55,639
Speaker 1: I have a guy, UM, a former team leader who's

1201
01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:58,320
Speaker 1: currently going through that transition into the v A, And

1202
01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:01,600
Speaker 1: there's an ongoing process right now um from being molested

1203
01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:03,880
Speaker 1: by the v A. And this guy still you know,

1204
01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:08,800
Speaker 1: practices his medical and treatments to patients, and my guy,

1205
01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:12,479
Speaker 1: amongst and other guys have been molested by him. Um.

1206
01:10:12,520 --> 01:10:14,080
Speaker 1: These are the type of things that we go through

1207
01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:16,240
Speaker 1: when we come back, and I think American Sniper does

1208
01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:20,080
Speaker 1: capture that mentality and the demons that we all face. Well. No,

1209
01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:23,000
Speaker 1: in other words, if if literally you spend a year

1210
01:10:23,800 --> 01:10:29,439
Speaker 1: and you're you're in that stress situation seven six those days,

1211
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:32,240
Speaker 1: and then you go back home, it's like you've entered

1212
01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:34,840
Speaker 1: a new world that you don't even barely remember in

1213
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:38,639
Speaker 1: many ways, and all that adrenaline doesn't stop pumping through

1214
01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:42,280
Speaker 1: your body and whatever thoughts create, whatever feelings that you've

1215
01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:45,240
Speaker 1: been living on you know. Oh yeah, my best friend

1216
01:10:45,439 --> 01:10:49,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Gray, former Delta first, former Army ranger as well. Um,

1217
01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:51,080
Speaker 1: he put it the best way I've ever heard it.

1218
01:10:51,479 --> 01:10:54,400
Speaker 1: We've been trained in condition to operate in a hectic,

1219
01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:57,839
Speaker 1: violent environment and be calm under becalm in that environment.

1220
01:10:58,080 --> 01:11:00,559
Speaker 1: We get back home into a calm environment, and we

1221
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:04,960
Speaker 1: don't know how to integrate into that two. I mean,

1222
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:07,160
Speaker 1: if you add up the numbers, we estimated about two

1223
01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:11,200
Speaker 1: and fifty thousand guys have had real big struggles because

1224
01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:14,439
Speaker 1: of long deployments, many deployments, and it's been very hard

1225
01:11:14,479 --> 01:11:16,519
Speaker 1: on everybody. All right, guys, I want to thank you all.

1226

1232
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:35,479
Speaker 1: alive even though the House Republicans are now on recess.

Speaker 1: We'll have more on Susan Rice, and then more in

1241
01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:07,479
Speaker 1: get to our phones in the meantime. Roman is in Texas. Roman, Hi,

1242
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:11,360
Speaker 1: how are you glad you called? Happy Friday? What's going on? Sean?

1243
01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:14,040
Speaker 1: It's hordered to talk to you. I had two questions

1244
01:12:14,120 --> 01:12:16,360
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you, first off being what are

1245
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:18,360
Speaker 1: you going to move out of New York down here

1246
01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:22,040
Speaker 1: to Texas? I'd move tomorrow, but my job keeps me here,

1247
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,000
Speaker 1: and um, it just is what it is right now

1248
01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:26,759
Speaker 1: for this part of my life. I listen. I certainly

1249
01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:30,040
Speaker 1: hope one thing. You know, if I die in New York,

1250
01:12:30,080 --> 01:12:33,320
Speaker 1: they take another bide at the apple, they get ten

1251
01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:36,160
Speaker 1: percent of whatever money I've saved. After they've taken ten

1252
01:12:36,200 --> 01:12:40,840
Speaker 1: percent my entire working adult life and the government takes

1253
01:12:40,880 --> 01:12:44,439
Speaker 1: now hopefully I live beyond when Donald Trump gets rid

1254
01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:47,679
Speaker 1: of the state tax. But you know, it's really sad

1255
01:12:47,720 --> 01:12:51,360
Speaker 1: that New York is has broken down, dilapidated and decrepit

1256
01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:55,880
Speaker 1: as it has become, especially the infrastructure, and they have

1257
01:12:56,400 --> 01:12:58,800
Speaker 1: you paid, you know, twelve dollars. If you cross a

1258
01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:02,120
Speaker 1: bridge or a tunnel New York each way, and they

1259
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:04,760
Speaker 1: still can't fund the bridges and tunnels, then you have

1260
01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:06,639
Speaker 1: a ten percent income tax and you have a city

1261
01:13:06,640 --> 01:13:09,320
Speaker 1: tax on top of it A three. I mean they

1262
01:13:09,320 --> 01:13:11,680
Speaker 1: take you every which way in sideways and if you

1263
01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:14,639
Speaker 1: go to Texas, the infrastructure is a thousand times better.

1264
01:13:14,800 --> 01:13:18,439
Speaker 1: Does that make sense to you? Oh? Yeah? Hey? And

1265
01:13:18,520 --> 01:13:21,880
Speaker 1: on my second question, uh, I'll always hear you tell

1266
01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:24,479
Speaker 1: us what you think should be on our healthcare bill.

1267
01:13:25,240 --> 01:13:27,680
Speaker 1: But I kind of wonder what what would be the

1268
01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:30,599
Speaker 1: perfect healthcare bill that would collaborate all the ideas from

1269
01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:33,280
Speaker 1: all the different coalitions in the Republican Party. That would

1270
01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:36,360
Speaker 1: I know it wouldn't be the best overall, but what

1271
01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:38,760
Speaker 1: do you think would be guaranteed the path get all

1272
01:13:38,800 --> 01:13:41,160
Speaker 1: the different coalitions to go for it. I don't know. Look,

1273
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:43,360
Speaker 1: I know they're still working on it. I know that

1274
01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:46,880
Speaker 1: those of us that are conservative believe in the free market, competition,

1275
01:13:47,280 --> 01:13:51,799
Speaker 1: buying across state lines, portability, health care savings accounts, especially

1276
01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:54,200
Speaker 1: for younger people, that they can build up this fund

1277
01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:58,360
Speaker 1: their entire life that's tax deductible. UM. I love the idea.

1278
01:13:58,400 --> 01:14:03,160
Speaker 1: I've really bought into these medical cooperatives with catastrophic care,

1279
01:14:03,280 --> 01:14:07,759
Speaker 1: like like Dr Rumber is doing down in in Wichita, Kansas.

1280
01:14:07,760 --> 01:14:09,599
Speaker 1: I just think there are a million ways to tackle

1281
01:14:09,680 --> 01:14:12,120
Speaker 1: this that can work. You know. Look, but at the

1282
01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:14,040
Speaker 1: end of the day, this is what we need. We

1283
01:14:14,080 --> 01:14:16,360
Speaker 1: don't need a top down system. We need a free

1284
01:14:16,360 --> 01:14:19,920
Speaker 1: market system. We need as much competition as possible. We

1285
01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:22,760
Speaker 1: need to Look, I know, the President, We're not gonna

1286
01:14:22,760 --> 01:14:25,680
Speaker 1: have people that are having heart attacks but don't have

1287
01:14:25,720 --> 01:14:28,920
Speaker 1: health insurance being turned away. It's not gonna happen. Um.

1288
01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:31,280
Speaker 1: Then it gets into the issue. Why should somebody that

1289
01:14:31,439 --> 01:14:34,559
Speaker 1: is fifty years old, takes care of themselves, is is

1290
01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:37,880
Speaker 1: fit and works out and lives a healthy lifestyle, doesn't

1291
01:14:37,920 --> 01:14:39,720
Speaker 1: drink too much or smoke too much. Why should he

1292
01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:41,760
Speaker 1: be in the same rate pool as somebody that you

1293
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:44,799
Speaker 1: know eats himself to death, drinks himself to death, smokes

1294
01:14:44,840 --> 01:14:47,880
Speaker 1: themselves to death, and doesn't do any exercise. So it

1295
01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:49,920
Speaker 1: gets complicated. I mean, at the end of the day,

1296
01:14:49,960 --> 01:14:51,720
Speaker 1: I don't think anything is going to be perfect. But

1297
01:14:52,120 --> 01:14:55,040
Speaker 1: it was much better before, it was much cheaper before.

1298
01:14:55,400 --> 01:14:58,720
Speaker 1: And if we institute and apply these free market principles

1299
01:14:59,080 --> 01:15:02,200
Speaker 1: to the health your system, that competition is going to

1300
01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:06,040
Speaker 1: ensure that we get lower prices, lower premiums, lower deductibles,

1301
01:15:06,120 --> 01:15:08,200
Speaker 1: and better care and a better bank for a Buck.

1302
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:12,760
Speaker 1: Catastrophic plans are inexpensive with high deductibles, and they take

1303
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:16,400
Speaker 1: care of the real emergencies a heart attack, cancerer of

1304
01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:18,920
Speaker 1: a bad accident. But anyway, I gotta take a break.

1305
01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:22,479
Speaker 1: We'll come back, Colonel North and General McInerney as we continue.

1306
01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:26,519
Speaker 1: We know you never want to miss the Sean Hannity Show,

1307

Speaker 1: place in Vermont. So um yeah, and after a few

1312
01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:50,839
Speaker 1: hours of that, you'll be glad you've brought Shawn along.

Speaker 1: To sign up today for Hannity Headlines, go to Hannity

1314
01:15:55,160 --> 01:16:01,840
Speaker 1: dot Com. Tuesday, Syrian Dictator for Sure Alosa launched a

1315
01:16:01,920 --> 01:16:08,400
Speaker 1: horrible chemical weapons attack on innocent civilians. Using a deadly

1316
01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:13,559
Speaker 1: nerve agent. ASSAD choked out the lives of helpless men, women,

1317
01:16:14,439 --> 01:16:18,920
Speaker 1: and children. It was a slow and brutal death for

1318
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:25,920
Speaker 1: so many. Even beautiful babies were cruelly murdered in this

1319
01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:32,800
Speaker 1: very barbaric attack. No child of God should ever suffered

1320
01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:40,160
Speaker 1: such horror. Tonight, I ordered a targeted military strike on

1321
01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:46,240
Speaker 1: the airfield in Syria from where the chemical attack was launched.

1322
01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:52,360
Speaker 1: It is in this vital national security interest of the

1323
01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:56,400
Speaker 1: United States to prevent and to terr the spread and

1324
01:16:56,520 --> 01:17:02,320
Speaker 1: youth of deadly chemical weapons. There can be no dispute

1325
01:17:02,760 --> 01:17:09,240
Speaker 1: that still used burned chemical weapons violated appligations under the

1326
01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:14,760
Speaker 1: Chemical Weapons Convention and ignored the urging of the U

1327
01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:19,920
Speaker 1: n Security counts. Years of previous attempts are changing the

1328
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:26,920
Speaker 1: slots behavior have all failed, and failed very dramatically. As

1329
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:31,680
Speaker 1: a result, the refugee crisis continues to deepen and the

1330
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:39,080
Speaker 1: region continues to destabilize, threatening the United States and its allies. Tonight,

1331
01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:42,400
Speaker 1: I call in all civilized nations to join us and

1332
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:48,720
Speaker 1: seeking to end the slurter and bloodshed in Syria, and

1333
01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:54,400
Speaker 1: also to end carrolls of all kinds and all types.

1334
01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:59,040
Speaker 1: We ask for God's wisdom as we face the challenge

1335
01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:03,519
Speaker 1: of our very troubled world. We pray for the lives

1336
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:07,760
Speaker 1: of the wounded and for the souls of those who

1337
01:18:07,800 --> 01:18:11,720
Speaker 1: have passed, and we hope that as long as America

1338
01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:16,000
Speaker 1: stands for justice, then peace and harmony will in the

1339
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:22,000
Speaker 1: end prevail. Good Night, and God bless America and the

1340
01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:25,759
Speaker 1: entire world. Thank you. All right, that was the President

1341
01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:29,360
Speaker 1: last night from Mara Lago making his statement, and no

1342
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:34,000
Speaker 1: child of God should ever suffer such horror and joining us.

1343
01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:37,800
Speaker 1: Now we have General Thomas McInerney and Colonel Oliver North,

1344
01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:41,040
Speaker 1: the host of War Stories on Fox News and Fox Business,

1345
01:18:41,040 --> 01:18:45,080
Speaker 1: discussing the tactics, the methodology, the message that was sent. Here. Gentlemen,

1346
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:47,439
Speaker 1: welcome back to the program. And Colonel North, let me

1347
01:18:47,479 --> 01:18:50,920
Speaker 1: begin with you about the President's actions last night and

1348
01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:54,880
Speaker 1: responds to the use once again of chemical weapons against

1349
01:18:54,880 --> 01:18:57,400
Speaker 1: innism and women and children. Well, Sean, if you want

1350
01:18:57,400 --> 01:18:59,919
Speaker 1: to send a message, excuse me, you can send flowers,

1351
01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:01,800
Speaker 1: and if you want your message to matter, you can

1352
01:19:01,840 --> 01:19:05,200
Speaker 1: send fifty nine cruise missiles, which is what the President did.

1353
01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:07,839
Speaker 1: And I think the message that was sent was spot

1354
01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:10,799
Speaker 1: on and a little message. If you're listening to Vladimir Putin,

1355
01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:13,880
Speaker 1: if you want your stooge Busher Alisad to stay alive,

1356
01:19:14,040 --> 01:19:16,920
Speaker 1: get him out of Damascus, bring him to Moscow where

1357
01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,599
Speaker 1: he can become a roommate for Eddie Snowden, because they

1358
01:19:19,600 --> 01:19:23,080
Speaker 1: deserve each other. I think that's really well, said General McInerney. Well,

1359
01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:26,400
Speaker 1: it was brilliant, It was decisive. There was no agonizing

1360
01:19:26,640 --> 01:19:29,719
Speaker 1: on it. He told the world that we will do business.

1361
01:19:29,920 --> 01:19:32,679
Speaker 1: We will not accept that kind of behavior. Kim Jong

1362
01:19:32,880 --> 01:19:35,360
Speaker 1: un should be where as well as he did it

1363
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:38,040
Speaker 1: at a dinner when he had the presidency sending a

1364
01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:41,519
Speaker 1: signal about the islands at President g is building an

1365
01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:44,160
Speaker 1: army out there in violation in the national law. So

1366
01:19:44,240 --> 01:19:48,519
Speaker 1: it set the tone. Allah President Reagan of the Trump

1367
01:19:48,560 --> 01:19:51,680
Speaker 1: administration seawan, Well, I think you know, how do you think,

1368
01:19:51,760 --> 01:19:54,519
Speaker 1: Colonel North? I mean, because this, to me was a

1369
01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:56,719
Speaker 1: message that this is a line in the sand, which

1370
01:19:56,760 --> 01:19:58,839
Speaker 1: is what the President had said in the press conference

1371
01:19:58,880 --> 01:20:01,000
Speaker 1: with King Abdullah or Alia this week. This is a

1372
01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:04,719
Speaker 1: lot more than a red line. It's it's way beyond that.

1373
01:20:05,160 --> 01:20:07,760
Speaker 1: And the message to me is that there's a new

1374
01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:10,160
Speaker 1: sheriff in town, and the new sheriff is not going

1375
01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:12,839
Speaker 1: to sit back and watch innocent men, women and children

1376
01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:17,200
Speaker 1: get gassed without reacting or without there being consequences. Now,

1377
01:20:17,320 --> 01:20:19,920
Speaker 1: you know, I know that the President wasn't for this

1378
01:20:20,280 --> 01:20:23,000
Speaker 1: at the time, but to me, I think being in

1379
01:20:23,040 --> 01:20:25,240
Speaker 1: the office seeing those images, you could hear it in

1380
01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:28,280
Speaker 1: his voice both during that press conference and last night

1381
01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:31,720
Speaker 1: that he was deeply moved at what was, you know,

1382
01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:35,000
Speaker 1: crimes against humanity in our lifetime. Oh no, there's no

1383
01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:37,840
Speaker 1: doubt this guy is a war criminal. And and as

1384
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:40,920
Speaker 1: General mcner and he just pointed out, the message goes

1385
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:45,479
Speaker 1: beyond Damascus, the message goes straight to Moscow. And what

1386
01:20:45,479 --> 01:20:48,360
Speaker 1: what we've been seeing happen is that there's been what

1387
01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:52,640
Speaker 1: I call the Troyka of terror among Moscow, Tehran and Damascus.

1388
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,800
Speaker 1: And as of last night, that is very close to

1389
01:20:55,880 --> 01:21:00,160
Speaker 1: coming unraveled because even at point Yang they have no

1390
01:21:00,320 --> 01:21:03,800
Speaker 1: friends other than little dictatorships. Putin is in a very

1391
01:21:03,840 --> 01:21:06,040
Speaker 1: bad spot. Now. I know he sent one of his

1392
01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:09,520
Speaker 1: battle group ships out of the Black Sea into the Mediterranean,

1393
01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:12,360
Speaker 1: but they would be nuts to go after a US

1394
01:21:12,439 --> 01:21:14,439
Speaker 1: vessel at this point. I don't know, I don't see

1395
01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:16,760
Speaker 1: that happening. And and by the way, Russia was was

1396
01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:20,080
Speaker 1: not exactly fully supportive either. You know, they even said

1397
01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:22,680
Speaker 1: earlier this week their support for Syria. Now they've been

1398
01:21:22,720 --> 01:21:26,400
Speaker 1: the biggest booster and protector of of this, this murdering

1399
01:21:26,479 --> 01:21:31,040
Speaker 1: dictator thug assad but they said it's not without conditions.

1400
01:21:31,120 --> 01:21:34,760
Speaker 1: This is not nonconditional support, unconditional support. Looking I don't

1401
01:21:34,760 --> 01:21:37,600
Speaker 1: believe anything I hear coming out of Poofing or he

1402
01:21:37,720 --> 01:21:41,080
Speaker 1: was spokesman. I do know that these people are not fools.

1403
01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:45,080
Speaker 1: And the idea of him being able to be supportive

1404
01:21:45,160 --> 01:21:48,960
Speaker 1: of Poigyang in the in the the business that's been

1405
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:52,000
Speaker 1: going on between poign Yang and Tehran on the development

1406
01:21:52,000 --> 01:21:55,360
Speaker 1: of I C b ms and nuclear weapons just got

1407
01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:57,200
Speaker 1: a wake up call. There has been a wake up

1408
01:21:57,240 --> 01:22:00,840
Speaker 1: call delivered to anybody who wants to who's those kinds

1409
01:22:00,880 --> 01:22:04,040
Speaker 1: of mass destruct weapons of mass destruction anywhere in the world.

1410
01:22:04,400 --> 01:22:06,800
Speaker 1: And so if you're sitting in poy Yang right now,

1411
01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:10,639
Speaker 1: you're thinking, maybe we better rethink this little joint venture

1412
01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:12,880
Speaker 1: that we've got going on with the Aetolis. And this

1413
01:22:12,920 --> 01:22:16,240
Speaker 1: has salutary benefits that go well beyond getting rid of Assad.

1414
01:22:16,439 --> 01:22:18,639
Speaker 1: Best of all, think about what happened in the last

1415
01:22:18,640 --> 01:22:21,280
Speaker 1: ten days. The President of the United States has met

1416
01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:24,040
Speaker 1: with in most cases very privately except for a few

1417
01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:27,639
Speaker 1: moments of the press, King Abdullah from Jordan's Alice al

1418
01:22:27,720 --> 01:22:30,960
Speaker 1: c c from President of Egypt, and he's talked to

1419
01:22:31,080 --> 01:22:34,360
Speaker 1: our allies in the area, to include Israel. Now I

1420
01:22:34,720 --> 01:22:37,800
Speaker 1: can see a scenario developing here when Roca falls and

1421
01:22:37,840 --> 01:22:40,800
Speaker 1: it will when Mostel is liberated, and it will be

1422
01:22:40,880 --> 01:22:43,640
Speaker 1: eventually at horrendous cost. By the way, at the end

1423
01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:45,799
Speaker 1: of the day, somebody is going to have to maintain

1424
01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:48,920
Speaker 1: some kind of peace in Syria. This is a remarkable

1425
01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:52,519
Speaker 1: opportunity because the two men that met with President Trump

1426
01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:55,719
Speaker 1: from that part of the world are capable, with US support,

1427
01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:59,520
Speaker 1: to be able to be the peacemakers and peacekeepers inside Syria.

1428
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:04,759
Speaker 1: At your take, General McInerney, absolutely, Colonel north spot on Sean,

1429
01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:06,800
Speaker 1: all right, let me ask you guys this, what what

1430
01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:09,720
Speaker 1: do you think, if any is the response, because you

1431
01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:12,200
Speaker 1: always got to prepare anytime there's military action that there's

1432
01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:15,040
Speaker 1: a potential that there's going to be some some response.

1433
01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:17,960
Speaker 1: I mean, we see earlier today that a Russian warship

1434
01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:21,240
Speaker 1: is moving into the area. But should we take that seriously? Also,

1435
01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:24,280
Speaker 1: the Russian said, you know, all all games are off

1436
01:23:24,680 --> 01:23:28,440
Speaker 1: and that Russia now has lived and said, the possibility

1437
01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:30,679
Speaker 1: the agreement we had that we would not shoot down

1438
01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:33,559
Speaker 1: each other's planes that is no longer in effect. What

1439
01:23:33,760 --> 01:23:35,559
Speaker 1: if you're the president, how do you react to that?

1440
01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:39,080
Speaker 1: Colonel north Well, Look, the President said a couple of

1441
01:23:39,160 --> 01:23:42,559
Speaker 1: weeks ago in conversation about this whole issue out there.

1442
01:23:42,920 --> 01:23:45,960
Speaker 1: It is now time for things like safe zones. Well

1443
01:23:45,960 --> 01:23:48,800
Speaker 1: that requires somebody besides the United States to police them.

1444
01:23:49,040 --> 01:23:51,280
Speaker 1: Number two, there ought to be and I know Tom's

1445
01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:54,120
Speaker 1: talked about this a lot. Excuse me, General McInerney has

1446
01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:56,320
Speaker 1: talked about this a lot. Everyone. I got out of hand, sir,

1447
01:23:56,360 --> 01:23:59,840
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, smiling. I think I think this is time

1448
01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:03,320
Speaker 1: for a serious discussion about no fly zones. I mean,

1449
01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:06,360
Speaker 1: these were air delivered munitions that killed all those men,

1450
01:24:06,439 --> 01:24:08,680
Speaker 1: women and children with sara and gas, which is a

1451
01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:11,719
Speaker 1: horrendous way to die. I mean, the president you could tell,

1452
01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:15,400
Speaker 1: was choked up having seen those visions, those images and

1453
01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:18,439
Speaker 1: the vision of all those children choking to death just

1454
01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:21,720
Speaker 1: absolutely appalling. And I believe that the world is going

1455
01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:24,400
Speaker 1: to be behind this president on these kinds of things.

1456
01:24:24,680 --> 01:24:27,160
Speaker 1: There can be no tolerance for it. And as General

1457
01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:29,680
Speaker 1: McInnerny pointed out, and you said it yourself, that this

1458
01:24:29,720 --> 01:24:31,960
Speaker 1: president didn't sit around and give her in the set

1459
01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:35,320
Speaker 1: room with pictures being taken and people staring at the screen.

1460
01:24:35,479 --> 01:24:38,240
Speaker 1: He he took his the advice of his chairman, of

1461
01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:41,040
Speaker 1: his Joint chiefs of Staff, his Secretary of Defense, the

1462
01:24:41,040 --> 01:24:45,719
Speaker 1: battlefield commanders, and he was fifteen cruise missiles. Apparently, by

1463
01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:47,479
Speaker 1: the way, apparently there was one that did not go

1464
01:24:47,560 --> 01:24:49,760
Speaker 1: where it was supposed to. You can bet one of

1465
01:24:49,800 --> 01:24:52,080
Speaker 1: the reactions it's going to be it killed one of

1466
01:24:52,360 --> 01:24:57,080
Speaker 1: Basher Alisad's granddaughters or something. Yeah, you know, General McInnerny,

1467
01:24:57,160 --> 01:24:59,439
Speaker 1: I think that the best thing that happened here is

1468
01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:02,120
Speaker 1: in two things have come true here. Number one, I

1469
01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:05,680
Speaker 1: think it shows that America is back. Another important aspect

1470
01:25:05,800 --> 01:25:09,240
Speaker 1: is we're not telegraphing or military moves. I've always felt

1471
01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:11,519
Speaker 1: that that is a mistake. I know that Senator Ram

1472
01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:14,880
Speaker 1: Paul thinks any military strike is some type of declaration

1473
01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:17,280
Speaker 1: of war. It is not. Um Whether or not there's

1474
01:25:17,280 --> 01:25:20,000
Speaker 1: going to be ongoing action will probably be dependent on

1475
01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:22,240
Speaker 1: how the Syrians and the Russians react to this thing.

1476
01:25:22,320 --> 01:25:25,639
Speaker 1: But you know, if if the world can coalesce behind

1477
01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:30,840
Speaker 1: stopping the use of these types of weapons against innocent civilians,

1478
01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:34,240
Speaker 1: then at the u n as a body is useless,

1479
01:25:34,280 --> 01:25:37,400
Speaker 1: and any other country that doesn't support stopping this type

1480
01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:40,160
Speaker 1: of treatment of human beings, then you're just basically willing

1481
01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:43,200
Speaker 1: to allow a modern day holocaust to unfold before your eyes.

1482
01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:46,679
Speaker 1: Is there any difference. No, You've got it spot on again. Look, Sean,

1483
01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:50,600
Speaker 1: this president didn't go and agonize and go to the

1484
01:25:50,680 --> 01:25:54,280
Speaker 1: Congress and talk to people. He made decisive decisions that

1485
01:25:54,360 --> 01:25:57,479
Speaker 1: are important decisions that needed to be made. And so

1486
01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:01,679
Speaker 1: he is now telegraphing to our advers series. Beware, you're

1487
01:26:01,680 --> 01:26:04,680
Speaker 1: not going to get a second warning. And just like

1488
01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:10,120
Speaker 1: when President Reagan attacked Kadafi in April fifte six, uh,

1489
01:26:10,200 --> 01:26:13,400
Speaker 1: it sent a signal around the world to terrorists. Ali

1490
01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:16,160
Speaker 1: remembers that very well because he was in the NSC

1491
01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:18,840
Speaker 1: at the time. But that sent a clear signal. And

1492
01:26:19,280 --> 01:26:22,559
Speaker 1: that's what I believe that President Trump is doing. He

1493
01:26:22,680 --> 01:26:26,960
Speaker 1: is sending clear signals to our adversaries and particularly radical

1494
01:26:27,120 --> 01:26:30,479
Speaker 1: Islam and the others that there is, as you said,

1495
01:26:30,600 --> 01:26:34,000
Speaker 1: a new sheriff in town. But more important, our values

1496
01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:37,639
Speaker 1: and what we value to our national security or national

1497
01:26:37,640 --> 01:26:41,240
Speaker 1: interest we will protect. We will be a strong ally,

1498
01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:43,760
Speaker 1: you know. General. One of the things you mentioned, of course,

1499
01:26:43,840 --> 01:26:46,120
Speaker 1: was the Olivia raid, uh, and we lost two U.

1500
01:26:46,200 --> 01:26:48,120
Speaker 1: S Airmen, as you know, from an F one eleven

1501
01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:51,280
Speaker 1: that went down during that strike. The wonderful thing about

1502
01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:55,759
Speaker 1: America's technology and the Americans America missiles that were developed

1503
01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:59,960
Speaker 1: way back then. They're really a lifesaver for Americans. Another

1504
01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:02,559
Speaker 1: a point, General to something you know about and we

1505
01:27:02,640 --> 01:27:05,200
Speaker 1: can't talk much about. But there's a very vital air

1506
01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:09,040
Speaker 1: base in Turkey, and that air base, as the General

1507
01:27:09,080 --> 01:27:11,800
Speaker 1: knows and Sean you can probably guess, has some really

1508
01:27:11,840 --> 01:27:15,519
Speaker 1: important stuff at it. And Urdwan has been prancing around

1509
01:27:15,520 --> 01:27:18,320
Speaker 1: and dancing with Putin now for the better part of

1510
01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:20,880
Speaker 1: a year. They set up a joint command center to

1511
01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:22,720
Speaker 1: make sure that they didn't bomb each other and all

1512
01:27:22,760 --> 01:27:25,760
Speaker 1: that garbage. The bottom line of it is Urduwan just

1513
01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:29,080
Speaker 1: got a message last night, Urduans. The message to Urduwan

1514
01:27:29,200 --> 01:27:32,160
Speaker 1: is think twice about what you've been doing, because the

1515
01:27:32,240 --> 01:27:36,040
Speaker 1: dance music just stopped, and and he's got to realize

1516
01:27:36,320 --> 01:27:38,680
Speaker 1: if he wants to stay around, if he wants his

1517
01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:41,719
Speaker 1: country to be halfway tranquil. The outcome of what happens

1518
01:27:41,760 --> 01:27:44,600
Speaker 1: in Syria now, which is a wonderful opportunity, is a

1519
01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:47,519
Speaker 1: consequence of what the president did last night is very

1520
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:49,720
Speaker 1: much going to affect Turkey. All Right, I gotta take

1521
01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:52,559
Speaker 1: a break, care guys, and I really appreciate your input.

1522
01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:54,880
Speaker 1: Don't forget Colonel North on what time you played in

1523
01:27:54,960 --> 01:27:57,640
Speaker 1: airing this weekend. Colonel, Well, we're there in the Okinawa

1524
01:27:57,800 --> 01:28:01,160
Speaker 1: MacArthur and the Hurkan Forest attles of World War two

1525
01:28:01,520 --> 01:28:03,479
Speaker 1: and O'kinala battle, of course, is the last one that

1526
01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:07,439
Speaker 1: was going on right now at this time. All right,

1527
01:28:07,479 --> 01:28:10,280
Speaker 1: thank you for being here, both of you. We appreciate

1528
01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:12,800
Speaker 1: your expertise. But first I gotta remind you, in this

1529
01:28:12,880 --> 01:28:15,120
Speaker 1: day and age, we all have cell phones, and maybe

1530
01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:16,759
Speaker 1: you get a new cell phone you want to donate

1531
01:28:16,880 --> 01:28:20,719
Speaker 1: or resell the old one. Be very careful now. These

1532
01:28:20,720 --> 01:28:24,320
Speaker 1: thieves that purchase old phones, they apply scanning technology to

1533
01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:27,439
Speaker 1: find personal information that they can use to recreate the

1534
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:30,320
Speaker 1: identities and open brand new accounts. If you're gonna get

1535
01:28:30,360 --> 01:28:32,920
Speaker 1: rid of an old phone, take the time the five minutes,

1536
01:28:32,960 --> 01:28:36,040
Speaker 1: remove the SIM card, the SD card, encrypt your data,

1537
01:28:36,160 --> 01:28:39,639
Speaker 1: wipe it clean with bleach bit like Hillary, because it's

1538
01:28:39,680 --> 01:28:48,840
Speaker 1: gonna be time well spent. All right, let's get back

1539
01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:50,360
Speaker 1: to our busy phones. I know a lot of you

1540
01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:53,640
Speaker 1: have been wanting to weigh in on this military action. Uh,

1541
01:28:53,720 --> 01:28:57,160
Speaker 1: let's say hi to Robin Is in Johnston, Pennsylvania. Robin, Hi,

1542
01:28:57,320 --> 01:29:00,679
Speaker 1: how are you glad you called? How are you. I'm good.

1543
01:29:00,720 --> 01:29:04,920
Speaker 1: What's happening? Uh? Crazy world. Yeah, it's really glad that

1544
01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:08,560
Speaker 1: he made these moves. I think this Russian narrative this,

1545
01:29:08,880 --> 01:29:12,280
Speaker 1: you know, the Russians influence this and that. I talked

1546
01:29:12,280 --> 01:29:15,439
Speaker 1: to my friends. You know, influence is a huge word.

1547
01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:18,679
Speaker 1: And you know, even my own husband and his family,

1548
01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:21,479
Speaker 1: who were lifelong Democrats, they didn't know who Podest was.

1549
01:29:21,520 --> 01:29:24,439
Speaker 1: They weren't paying attention to half of that. Influence is

1550
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:28,160
Speaker 1: a big word, and it just frustrates me and the constant.

1551
01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:31,000
Speaker 1: You know, Donald Trump is so nice to Russia. I

1552
01:29:31,040 --> 01:29:33,360
Speaker 1: think Donald Trump was trying to create a segue to

1553
01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:37,080
Speaker 1: have a conversation that was muted and had the opportunity

1554
01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:40,400
Speaker 1: to be progressive and maybe make some headway. I don't

1555
01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:42,479
Speaker 1: know what he's done nice, and I think he just

1556
01:29:42,640 --> 01:29:46,360
Speaker 1: took decisive action to last night and did what we

1557
01:29:46,439 --> 01:29:49,200
Speaker 1: needed a president to do for gold. I mean, there's

1558
01:29:49,280 --> 01:29:52,439
Speaker 1: such a dramatic difference red line in the sand. Okay,

1559
01:29:52,520 --> 01:29:56,000
Speaker 1: you do nothing, you do absolutely nothing, And you know

1560
01:29:56,120 --> 01:29:59,040
Speaker 1: here's a president that said this went beyond the redline,

1561
01:29:59,240 --> 01:30:01,240
Speaker 1: did something. And I'm gonna tell you what a predict

1562
01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:05,320
Speaker 1: is gonna happen. Nothing they're gonna stop using chemical weapons

1563
01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:08,519
Speaker 1: because if they don't stop using chemical weapons, it's gonna

1564
01:30:08,600 --> 01:30:13,080
Speaker 1: happen again. And last night, remember every Tomahawk missile, all

1565
01:30:13,120 --> 01:30:17,920
Speaker 1: all eighteen feet long, two feet wide missile is a

1566
01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:22,000
Speaker 1: thousand tons of AMMO and explosives in this thing. Well

1567
01:30:22,040 --> 01:30:25,360
Speaker 1: that's you know, all of that tonnage got dropped last

1568
01:30:25,439 --> 01:30:28,360
Speaker 1: night in a very short period of time. It is

1569
01:30:28,439 --> 01:30:31,479
Speaker 1: just a pinprick of what America and America's military is

1570
01:30:31,520 --> 01:30:34,400
Speaker 1: capable of. Now, do we want occupation? Do we want

1571
01:30:34,439 --> 01:30:38,759
Speaker 1: ground forces? Is it America's role to to fix the

1572
01:30:38,760 --> 01:30:42,439
Speaker 1: the unfolding civil war in Syria and the and the

1573
01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:45,240
Speaker 1: human wreckage that has been caused by this The answer

1574
01:30:45,280 --> 01:30:48,000
Speaker 1: is no. We don't have the ability to be the

1575
01:30:48,040 --> 01:30:51,360
Speaker 1: world's policeman. But there are certain moments and times in

1576
01:30:51,479 --> 01:30:54,120
Speaker 1: history where it is the right thing to do. And

1577
01:30:54,200 --> 01:30:56,280
Speaker 1: I think there also is a message sent to the

1578
01:30:56,280 --> 01:30:57,720
Speaker 1: rest of the world. I mean, there's been a lot

1579
01:30:57,760 --> 01:30:59,720
Speaker 1: of saber rattling out of Iran and a lot of

1580
01:30:59,760 --> 01:31:02,760
Speaker 1: say were rattling out of North Korea, and I think

1581
01:31:02,800 --> 01:31:05,839
Speaker 1: that now people need to understand that we have somebody

1582
01:31:05,880 --> 01:31:08,599
Speaker 1: that a recognize as evil in our time be will

1583
01:31:08,680 --> 01:31:12,920
Speaker 1: use military action, doesn't agonize over the decision. Uh. In

1584
01:31:12,960 --> 01:31:15,519
Speaker 1: a case that's so black and white like this, you

1585
01:31:15,680 --> 01:31:19,439
Speaker 1: just have to make that choice. Anyway. That's gonna really

1586
01:31:19,439 --> 01:31:21,599
Speaker 1: wrap things up today. I wish we had more time.

1587
01:31:21,760 --> 01:31:24,400
