1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Welcome. It is Verdict with Center Ted Cruz. This is

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: obviously one of those shows that neither of us wanted

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:08,799
Speaker 1: to do, but it's an important one to get you

4
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,959
Speaker 1: information about what has happened and this horrific terrorist attack

5
00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: in New Orleans and also what looks to be some

6
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,760
Speaker 1: sort of attack in Las Vegas outside of the Trump

7
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: Hotel there. Senator, this has a connection obviously to Texas.

8
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 1: Many of us were celebrating New Year's Eve. You were

9
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: down at mar A Lago. I was with my family

10
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: at the beach, and then we see and wake up

11
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,559
Speaker 1: to this news breaking. And I want to timestamp this

12
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: for people to understand when we're recording this. We're recording

13
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: this at nine thirty Eastern time on Wednesday, so much

14
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: of this may change, So I just want you to

15
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,639
Speaker 1: know when we started this, but I want to get

16
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,080
Speaker 1: your initial reaction to what we've witnessed.

17
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 2: Well, we're less than twenty four hours out from the

18
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 2: United States once again saying a significant terrorist attack on

19
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 2: US soil. At three point fifteen and morning New Year's Day,

20
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 2: forty two year old sham sad Din Bahar Jabbar, who

21
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 2: is a US citizen a Texas resident, he drove a

22
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 2: white pickup truck into people celebrating on Bourbon Street. Jabbar

23
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 2: was born in Beaumont, Texas. He resides in Houston, your

24
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 2: hometown and my hometown, and he was an Army veteran.

25
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 2: As we talked today, fifteen people have been killed and

26
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 2: several dozen more have been injured. And I will say,

27
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: as is the nature of any fast breaking crisis and

28
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 2: fast breaking news story, the news that is available is

29
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 2: rapidly moving. It is changing. So we're going to talk

30
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: about what's happening, what we know now, but with the

31
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 2: caveat that, we can fully expect the information we know

32
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: on this to change and very possibly changed significantly in

33
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 2: days and weeks to come. We're less than twenty four

34
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 2: hours out from this attack, but what we know now

35
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 2: is deeply, deeply disturbing. It has been reported that this

36
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: Army veteran drove the pickup truck deliberately into a crowd

37
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 2: of revelers with the intent of killing and harming as

38
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 2: many people as possible. It's also been reported that the

39
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 2: pickup truck was flying an ISIS flag and that Jabbar

40
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 2: was inspired by ISIS. Simultaneously, we have a Tesla cyber

41
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 2: truck that exploded in front of the Trump Hotel in

42
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 2: Las Vegas, killing one injuring several. The one who was

43
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 2: killed was the driver. It is not confirmed that those

44
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 2: two are linked, but both occurred early in the morning

45
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 2: on New Year's Day, and America is now dealing with

46
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 2: the aftermath of one or potentially two terrorist attacks, finding

47
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 2: out who's responsible, finding out if additional actors were responsible.

48
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: There have been multiple reports of additional individuals potentially placing

49
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 2: IEDs and at this point, the entire country is reeling

50
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 2: from this attack.

51
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,679
Speaker 1: It is really sad. And this goes back to the

52
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: bigger concern that we've worried about on this show and

53
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: talked about, and it's something that I think so many

54
00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: Americans felt. You had a wide open southern border. You

55
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: had a lot of people that have been able to

56
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: come across the southern border that were caught that were

57
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: on the terrorists watch list. You have law enforcement that,

58
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty fair to say, is stretched extremely

59
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: thin when you're having to deal with a wide open

60
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: southern border and what is coming across that southern border,

61
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: and this individual being an American citizen and being a Texan,

62
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: as you described, But the real problem can be that

63
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: we are stretched so thin with so many possibilities out there,

64
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: that this is one of those examples of when we've

65
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: had this open door policy. Law enforcement is doing the

66
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: maybe in many cases, the best they can, and they

67
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: just don't have the time or the resources they need

68
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: to focus in on these types of threats.

69
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 2: Well, that is tragically correct, and on this podcast we

70
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 2: have been predicting for months now that the odds of

71
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 2: a major terrorist attack in the United States were higher

72
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 2: than they have been at any time since September eleventh,

73
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 2: and unfortunately, this morning's tragic events confirms that now in

74
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 2: this instance, the facts are still coming out. What we

75
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 2: know about Jabbar according to the Army Liaison's Office and

76
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 2: what he has told what they have released. He served

77
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 2: in the Army from two thousand and six to twenty twenty,

78
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 2: including approximately nine years of active duty service. He held

79
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 2: specialties in HR and IT. He was born in Beaumont, Texas.

80
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 2: He deployed in Afghanistan from two thousand and nine to

81
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 2: twenty ten. He was in the Army Reserve from twenty

82
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 2: fifteen to twenty twenty, and he was discharged in twenty

83
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: twenty with an honorable discharge for unsatisfactory participation. That much

84
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 2: we know. We also know that in his truck were

85
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 2: found explosive devices. Explosive devices including two pipe bombs that

86
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 2: were concealed within coolers and wired for remote detonation. That's

87
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 2: according to the Louisiana State Police and the pickup truck.

88
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 2: The pickup truck its origin, there has been conflicting reporting

89
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 2: it so earlier today it was reported that the truck

90
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 2: used in the New Orleans attack came through the Southern border,

91
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 2: and The Daily Wire reported that Early today, Fox News

92
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 2: reported that the truck entered the US two days ago,

93
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 2: but they then updated their story to report that the

94
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:27,679
Speaker 2: truck crossed the southern border on November sixteenth. So November sixteenth,

95
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 2: a month and a half ago, apparently the truck crossed

96
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 2: the southern border. It has also now been reported that

97
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 2: the truck in New Orleans was rented using the Touro app.

98
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 2: The tourou app is a peer to peer app, and

99
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: one of the strange details that has been reported is

100
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,840
Speaker 2: that both the truck in New Orleans and the cyber

101
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 2: truck in Los Angeles, in Las Vegas rather were both

102
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 2: rented using the tourou app. That may simply be a coincidence,

103
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 2: it may be something more. But what has been reported.

104
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 2: The New York Times is reporting that both were rented

105
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 2: using Toro. Toro itself put out a statement that said

106
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 2: that it was quote actively partnering with law enforcement authorities

107
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 2: as they investigate both incidents. They also said, quote we

108
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 2: do not believe that either rent or involved in the

109
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 2: Las Vegas or New Orleans attacks had a criminal background

110
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: that would have identified them as a security threat threat.

111
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 2: It's not clear as we sit here today the full

112
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 2: details of that, but those are the breaking details as

113
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 2: of nine to forty one pm.

114
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: I want to go back to a headline real quick,

115
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: and then I also want to play for everybody what

116
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: Joe Biden said. But this was a headline that you

117
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: and I talked about and warned about, and it was

118
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: from the New York Posts October the twenty third of

119
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, and it said border agents caught three

120
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:04,679
Speaker 1: hundred migrants heirist ties, including ISIS, and it's still incredibly

121
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 1: easy for them to enter the US. This report came

122
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: out October the twenty third, so we're talking a couple

123
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 1: of months ago, and you and I, and that's when

124
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: you really talked about you felt like there was a

125
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: real chance that something like this could happen because of

126
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: the of the of the idea that we have so

127
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: many resources fred all over the place. When you look

128
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 1: ahead to January twentieth and Donald Trump coming in, does

129
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: this now clearly become a top priority on the issue

130
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: of border security because it's a national security issue very much,

131
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: and getting back to doing the way that we used

132
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 1: to deal with whether it was domestic or homegrown or

133
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: foreign terrorism.

134
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,680
Speaker 2: One of the things that is maddening is even to

135
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 2: this day, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and the Democrats

136
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 2: refused to secure the border. Just a few weeks ago,

137
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 2: the Democrats held a hearing in the Senate You Shary

138
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,560
Speaker 2: Committee on the horrors of mass deportations, not on the

139
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 2: need to secure the border, but on how terrible it

140
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 2: was that Trump is going to enforce the law. The

141
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 2: border will be secured. We are three weeks away from

142
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 2: an administration coming in that is going to be I believe,

143
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 2: absolutely serious and incredibly effective securing the border. But every

144
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 2: day that border is open, Americans are at greater risk,

145
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 2: and we're at risk number one from terrorists crossing the

146
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 2: southern border. But number two, we're at risk from law enforcement,

147
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 2: the FBI, the federal government focusing on every other policy

148
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 2: and agenda item other than keeping the American people safe.

149
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 2: You know, I have to say one of the things

150
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 2: that was dismaying is the FBI. Right after this happened

151
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 2: in New Orleans, they went out and publicly said this

152
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 2: was not a terrorist attack. The New Orleans police disagreed

153
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 2: with that statement. The FBI has since gone on to

154
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 2: say they are investigating it as terrorism. But I got

155
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 2: to say, when a truck drives into a crowd waving

156
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 2: an ISIS flag, I don't know what the hell you

157
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 2: call it other than terrorism.

158
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, And that I think is one of the things

159
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: that's so frustrating, and that moves us also to what

160
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 1: we witnessed today with the closed circuit TV footage of

161
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: this cyber truck that exploded in front of Trump Tower,

162
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 1: killing that driver. We're now being told by authorities there

163
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 1: that they said the driver the electric vehicle parked in

164
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,080
Speaker 1: the valley area outside the hotel's lobby before it exploded

165
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 1: into flames. We've gotten a tweet from Elon Musk saying

166
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: that this was not in fact the batteries or a

167
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 1: malfunction of the car that so many immediately wanted to blame.

168
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 1: This was a Tesla accident that just happened to happen

169
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 1: on the same day as this other attack at the

170
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,719
Speaker 1: Trump Hotel in Las Vegas. They've now said definitively in

171
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,439
Speaker 1: law enforcement, this was not any type of battery issue

172
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 1: or a malfunction. This was clearly done deliberately, and thank goodness,

173
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: no one besides that driver, from what we understand, died.

174
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: There were seven that were injured there, and this is

175
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: now being treated apparently as a other terrorist activity attack

176
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas as well.

177
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 2: Well, that's right, and the details there that there's one

178
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 2: fatality from the Las Vegas explosion, and that was the

179
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 2: driver himself. The driver in New Orleans is also dead

180
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 2: from a shootout with the police. As soon as it happened,

181
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 2: the mayor of New Orleans, LaToya Cantrell, publicly described as

182
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 2: a terrorist attack. The police chief stated the driver's actions

183
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 2: were intentional. This was not a dui situation. According to

184
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 2: the chief, the driver was quote hell bent on creating carnage.

185
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,719
Speaker 2: And yet, as I mentioned, the FBI spokesperson countered the

186
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 2: Merit mayors claim moments later stating it was quote not

187
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 2: a terrorist event. Here, give a.

188
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 3: Listen, this is not a terrorist event. What it is

189
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 3: right now is there improve explosive devices that was found

190
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 3: and we are working on confirming if this is a

191
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 3: viable device or not. As Chief Kirkpatrick said, we're asking

192
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 3: everyone to stay away from Bourbon Street, specifically from Canal

193
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 3: Street to Saint Anne. That is my ask once again,

194
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 3: stay away from Bourbon Street, Canal Street all the way

195
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 3: to Saint Anne until we can figure out what is

196
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,559
Speaker 3: going on. Our goal is provide to additional information at

197
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 3: the eleven am press conference. Thank you so much, and

198
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 3: we will be in touch.

199
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 4: Yes, I will say that we want our community and

200
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 4: our visitors to continue and join. There's so much to

201
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 4: enjoy about New Orleans and we are going to make

202
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 4: sure that our routes and the Superdome are safe today

203
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 4: for the game. And yet we had this tragic event

204
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 4: and we're sorry again to everyone in our community, but

205
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 4: we do want you to gout the day. As we say,

206
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 4: just stay away from.

207
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: Bourbon There's two parts of that center that I think

208
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: are the most frustrating for many people that are listening.

209
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: One the out of touch with reality and you want

210
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: to have faith in law enforcement, but to come out

211
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: in such a hardcore way, so this is not a

212
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: terrorist attack, not being treated like a terisa and people

213
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: are like, what's wrong with you? And the part that

214
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: also went viral after that was a tweet that came

215
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 1: out from the FBI New Orleans and it was them

216
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: having holding this summer a diversity agent recruitment event and

217
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 1: we want to meet you. This was DEI on full display.

218
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 1: We went diversity, inequity inclusion. And people say this statement

219
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: and then that tweet and they say, what is happening

220
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: at the FBI.

221
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 2: Well, the FBI has in far too many instances not

222
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 2: kept their eye on the ball. And that is one

223
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 2: of the reasons that Donald Trump is coming into office

224
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: with an agenda of fundamentally reforming the Department of Justice

225
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 2: and the FBI getting it back focused on its core mission,

226
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 2: ending the weaponization, ending the politicization, and its core mission

227
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 2: includes preventing acts of terrorism. Now, in this instance, the

228
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 2: terrorist in New Orleans was an American citizen, so he

229
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 2: did not cross the border illegally, although apparently has truck

230
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 2: did the truck he used across the border six six

231
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 2: weeks ago. However, we don't know the story of how

232
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 2: he was radicalized. Someone who was an army veteran who

233
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 2: served for many years, who became a self described proponent

234
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 2: of isis. That is something gone profoundly wrong, and it

235
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 2: reminds me of Nadal Hassan. Nadal Hassan, you'll recall, who

236
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 2: murdered fourteen innocent souls at Fort Hood. He was active

237
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 2: duty military and he became radicalized, and during the Obama

238
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 2: iministration that they knew that he was communicating with the

239
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 2: radical Islamic cleric and War Alilaki and asking about the

240
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 2: permissibility of waging jahad on his fellow soldiers, and infuriatingly enough,

241
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:20,359
Speaker 2: the Obama Pentagon they had those communications with Anwar Alilaki,

242
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 2: and they did nothing to stop Nadal Hassan from from

243
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 2: committing that mass murder. That they sat on that information,

244
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 2: and we don't know if there's any of that. We

245
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 2: have no indication that there's any of that information now.

246
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 2: But I will say we're dealing with another individual who

247
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 2: is a soldier who apparently became radicalized, and I think

248
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 2: there's a real need for transparency to figure out what happened.

249
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 2: And I want to play my colleague John Kennedy, Senator

250
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 2: John Kennedy, a good friend of mine. He's down in

251
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 2: New Orleans now. I want to play what he had

252
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 2: to say because I very much agree with with with

253
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: what he brest on the ground today.

254
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 5: I don't want to hear from anybody in the federal

255
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 5: government that they don't have the resources. Now the White House,

256
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 5: the FBI, Justice, Homeland Security are in charge. Now, we're

257
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 5: cooperating with them. I want to give them a reasonable

258
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 5: period of time. There's a lot of information out there,

259
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 5: some of it is actually true. I want to give

260
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 5: them a reasonable period of time, but they need to

261
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 5: saddle up and ride. We need to find out what

262
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 5: happened here, and it's not going to be covered up.

263
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 5: We're going to tell the American people exactly what happened.

264
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 5: I'm not interested in placing blame or saying who is

265
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 5: right or wrong. I just want to catch these sons

266
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 5: of bitches who did this.

267
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: Centater, I think that the sentiment that many are feeling

268
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: is exactly the way it was described by your colleague

269
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: there that the Center from Louisiana.

270
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 2: Well Kennedy's absolutely right. And look, the priority Number one

271
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 2: needs to be keeping people safe. Number two needs to

272
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 2: be catching anyone else involved in this. Where there other conspirators?

273
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 2: Was this a broader plot? Number three needs to be transparency,

274
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 2: figuring out how did this come to pass? Why was

275
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 2: this not prevented? Why did nobody sound the alarm that

276
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 2: this guy was dangerous, That this guy was affiliating with

277
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 2: isis that this guy was looking to commit murder? All

278
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 2: of those are questions that come out. And I said,

279
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 2: number one, though, is keeping people safe. You know, one

280
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 2: of the frustrating things about this attack in New Orleans

281
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,199
Speaker 2: is that there were steel barricades on Bourbon Street that

282
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 2: were installed in twenty seventeen, and they were installed to

283
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 2: prevent terrorist attacks in the area. And had the barricades

284
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:48,720
Speaker 2: been up, they clearly would have minimized the carnage this morning. Unfortunately,

285
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,919
Speaker 2: the barricades were down. The police chief said the barricades

286
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 2: were in the process of being replaced, and I will

287
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: say that is tragic. And look, got we've got bowl games.

288
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 2: They delayed the Sugar Bowl for a day, but we've

289
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 2: got football games across the country. We've got all sorts

290
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 2: of events across the country. We've got the inauguration on

291
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 2: January twentieth, and one of the very important front and

292
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 2: center needs to be keeping people safe and preventing another

293
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 2: terrorist attack. Just because one happened doesn't mean we're not

294
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 2: at risk of another one happening. And that's why we

295
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 2: need to be vigilant number one keeping people safe, but

296
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 2: number two tracking down everyone involved in these horrible atrocities

297
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 2: and then having full, full transparency and doing everything we

298
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 2: can to remove and to apprehend potential ISIS terrorists before

299
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 2: they take more lives.

300
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 1: Can we just talk for a moment about incompetency here,

301
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 1: because that's what everybody is thinking that I think is

302
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 1: listening right now the majority are I certainly am. And

303
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: when I talk about in commency, you just mentioned it.

304
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: It is New Year's Eve, Center, and this is when

305
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 1: I get angry. It's New Year's Eve. You have a

306
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: Sugar Bowl game that you've known about for a long

307
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 1: time and New Year's Eve, and you don't have the

308
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 1: barriers up that you know you need to keep people safe.

309
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: Because you say that you're getting them ready for the

310
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: super Bowl. Why wouldn't you have them ready for New

311
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,679
Speaker 1: Year's Eve until the Super Bowl. Why is it that

312
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: it seems like every time we give government the funding

313
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: to do things like this and to protect people, there's

314
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 1: some excuse. And I go back to in competency on

315
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: what we talked about just a few days ago. You

316
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 1: look at the Biden administration and the plea deal they

317
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 1: gave the mastermind of nine to eleven, Khalide Chek Muhammad.

318
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 1: What message does that sind to tear us around the

319
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,439
Speaker 1: world that we will spare your life, we will not

320
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 1: take your life even if you're the master a mind

321
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,919
Speaker 1: nine to eleven. You combine these types of things, and

322
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 1: I think there's many Americans right now, and I say

323
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: this with frustration on behalf of many Americans that feel

324
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:02,679
Speaker 1: like they are not being protected by this administration the

325
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 1: way they should be and were sending the wrong signals

326
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 1: to the terrorists.

327
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 2: At the same time, Well, we've had four years of

328
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,679
Speaker 2: an open door, red carpet invitation for terrorists to come

329
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 2: across our southern border that has made us much much

330
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 2: less safe. We have also had law enforcement, including the FBI,

331
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 2: focused on political and partisan agendas instead of focusing on

332
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 2: the bad guys, stopping the bad guys before they commit

333
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 2: crimes like this. We will find out what information there

334
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 2: was that could have been used to prevent this attack.

335
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,679
Speaker 2: We need to find that out. And even if the

336
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 2: Biden administration refuses to make it public and to be transparent,

337
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 2: I have significant confidence that the incoming Trump administration will

338
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 2: make that information public. And I got to say, look

339
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 2: for everyone who lost, for the fifteen people murdered this morning,

340
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 2: for the families of them, for the three dozen people

341
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 2: who were wounded, some very grievously wounded. I am sure

342
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 2: they are feeling a level of frustration and anger. They're

343
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 2: filling frustration with the city. Why weren't those barricades up.

344
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 2: The barricades should have been up. They were put in

345
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 2: in twenty seventeen. This risk was known New Year's Eve.

346
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,679
Speaker 2: It's not like that's a surprising time for someone seeking

347
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 2: to do something horrible to target people. The eve of

348
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 2: the Sugar Bowl that was another name.

349
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 1: There's a great example of that.

350
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:30,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and listen, one of the real dangers of terrorism.

351
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 2: You can have a big elaborate plot of a dirty

352
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 2: bomb or attacking a nuclear reactor or something, but some

353
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 2: of the most frightening terrorism and Sadly, some of the

354
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 2: most effective terrorism is very low tech. It is driving

355
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 2: a truck into a crowd. It is walking into a

356
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 2: shopping mall wearing a suicide vest. It is you know,

357
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 2: I was living in DC twenty some odd years ago

358
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 2: when the DC sniper was there, and that was two

359
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 2: guys who drilled a hole in the trunk of their

360
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 2: car and drove around DC parked and sat there with

361
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 2: a rifle and just shot people. And I'll tell you,

362
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 2: the entire city was terrified, was on edge, and there

363
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 2: was no no high tech involved in it. And and

364
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,360
Speaker 2: and that vulnerability is very real, which is why we

365
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 2: need a proactive FBI. We need law enforcement that that

366
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 2: that is focusing on the bad guys and and and

367
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 2: not on every political agenda that that that that might

368
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,200
Speaker 2: be the latest fashionable priority.

369
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: I want to wrap up with letting the country hear

370
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 1: Joe Biden. He did address the nation from Camp David

371
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,240
Speaker 1: uh seven o'clock on New Year's Day, as we were

372
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: recording this about two hours after that, and this is

373
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: what Joe Biden had to say, part of it, at

374
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: least about this attack. Take a listen, and I want

375
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: to get your reaction Texas.

376
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,240
Speaker 6: He served in the United States Army an active duty

377
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 6: for many years. He also served in the Army Reserve

378
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 6: until a few years ago. The FBI also reported to

379
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 6: me that mere hours before the attack, he posted videos

380
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 6: on social media indicating that is inspired by ISIS, especially

381
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 6: the desire to kill desire to kill. The ISIS flag

382
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 6: was found in his vehicle, which he rented to conduct

383
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 6: this attack. Possible explosives are found in the vehicle as well,

384
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 6: and more explosives were found nearby. The situation is very fluid,

385
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 6: and the investigation has a preliminary stage, and the fact

386
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:44,360
Speaker 6: is that right right now, excuse me, there you go.

387
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 6: The law enforcement intelligien community are continuing to look for

388
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 6: any connections, associations, are co conspirators, We have nothing, additionally,

389
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 6: report at this time, the investigation is continuing to be

390
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:03,199
Speaker 6: active and no one should jump to conclusions. I've directed

391
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 6: my Attorney General, the FBI Director, the Secretary of Homeland Security,

392
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,679
Speaker 6: head a National counter intelligence to Terrorism Center, and the

393
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 6: intelligence community to work on this intensively until we have

394
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 6: a full and complete information. And once we have that information,

395
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 6: I will share that information as soon as we can

396
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 6: confirm it. Additionally, we're tracking the explosion of the cyber

397
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 6: truck outside the Trump Hotel in Las Vegas. Law enforcement

398
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:39,360
Speaker 6: and the intelligence community are investigating this as well, including

399
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,640
Speaker 6: whether there's any possible connection with the attacking New Orleans.

400
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 6: Thus far, there's nothing to report on that score at

401
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 6: this time. I've directed my team to make sure every resource,

402
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,960
Speaker 6: every resource is made available to federal, state, and local

403
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 6: law enforcement to complete the investigation in New Orleans quickly,

404
00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 6: and to make sure there is no remains thread.

405
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 1: You know, there's part of me that's like, Okay, I'm

406
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: glad that the president's out there saying this. There's another

407
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 1: part of me when he got lost and said excuse

408
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: me while reading that teleprompter, that was just a three

409
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: sixty moment of his entire time in the presidency. The

410
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: reporting that we talked about about his cognitive decline, just

411
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 1: I think it was on the last pod. And yet

412
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 1: this is the guy who is in charge, and you

413
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 1: wonder why some of these things are happening. Well, he

414
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: gets lost in the teleprompter and has to apologize while

415
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,160
Speaker 1: reading a prepared statement, and that's the type of leadership

416
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: we've had.

417
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 2: Well, listen, I am glad the president gave that press

418
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 2: conference tonight. I'm glad he's speaking out. I think the

419
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 2: substance of what he said is right. I wish him.

420
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 2: I wish the Department of Justice of the FBI every

421
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 2: success and very quickly finding anyone involved in this, apprehending them,

422
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 2: focusing on it. There will be times there is no

423
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 2: doubt that the horrible policies of this administration, the open

424
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 2: borders for four years, have contributed to making us less safe,

425
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 2: have contributed to increasing the likelihood of a terrorist attack.

426
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 2: But at this point, look whether whether Joe Biden the

427
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,640
Speaker 2: Democrats intend to be transparent or not, I am confident

428
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 2: the incoming administration will make this information public. It needs

429
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 2: to be public so there can be accountability for where

430
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: where the ball was dropped, because at the end of

431
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 2: the day, this attack was not prevented tragically, and we

432
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:40,479
Speaker 2: need to learn from that and make sure we stop

433
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 2: the next attack. But what I will say tonight is

434
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 2: that our prayers are with the families and loved ones

435
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 2: of those who were murdered earlier. Today, our prayers are

436
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 2: with all of the victims who were injured. We are

437
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,879
Speaker 2: praying for their recovery, We're praying for their safety, and

438
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 2: I'll say to all of you, look, look, stay vigilance,

439
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 2: stay safe, and and tonight you give your kids an

440
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 2: extra hug, and remember your family and those you love,

441
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 2: because it's a dangerous world we live in right now.

442
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: No doubt about it. Our thoughts and prayers are with

443
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: all those in the hospital, dozens and dozens injured in

444
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 1: New Orleans and at least seven injured in what happened

445
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,640
Speaker 1: in Vegas. That suspect is we now know the death

446
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: toll has risen. At this moment, we're recording to fifteen people.

447
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,400
Speaker 1: Pray for those families the center, and I will see

448
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,199
Speaker 1: you back here as well. If there's any other significant

449
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,439
Speaker 1: breaking news, we will make sure that we get it

450
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: to you. But we wanted to make sure we had

451
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 1: this conversation with you as soon as we could tonight,

452
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 1: and be safe everyone, and we'll see you back here

453
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 1: in a couple of days
