1
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:05,720
Speaker 1: President Trump yet again keeping it sweet and simple. At

2
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: the White House today in the Oval Office, he was

3
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:11,239
Speaker 1: asked about what's happening with Iran, and the President had

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 1: this to say to the press.

5
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 2: We have ships heading to a run right now, big ones,

6
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 2: the biggest of the best.

7
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 3: And do we have talks going on with a run.

8
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 3: We'll see it all works out.

9
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:24,720
Speaker 1: Well, see how it all works out?

10
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 3: Now.

11
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 1: This comes just days after the President had this to

12
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: say inside the Oval Office about Iran as well.

13
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 4: Okay, we have a large armada flotilla, got whatever you

14
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 4: want heading forward Iran right now, even larger than what

15
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 4: we had in Venezuela. It's still in front of the Venezuelan.

16
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: This showing the presence not bluffing. He also over the weekend,

17
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: when asked at mar Lago about what's happening in Iran,

18
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: said this, Why wouldn't.

19
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 5: He say that?

20
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 3: Push you're going to say that, But.

21
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 2: The biggest usabon offleships in the world over there very.

22
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 4: Close a couple of days, and hopefully we'll make a deal.

23
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 3: We don't make a deal then, and we'll find out

24
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 3: whether or not he.

25
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 1: Was right, find out or not whether he was right.

26
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: The President was referencing a Rand supreme leader warning of

27
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 1: a regional war if the US attacks Tehran, and the

28
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: President saying, hey, if we don't make a deal, then

29
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 1: we'll find out whether or not he was right, which

30
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: brings us to where we are right now. With all

31
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: of this, Wikoff has now said that the talks with

32
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: nukes will happen on Friday with Iran.

33
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:36,199
Speaker 3: That's right.

34
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: The US Special Envoyd and the Iranian Foreign Minister are

35
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: expected to meet in Istanbul, marking a potential restart of

36
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: direct engagement between Washington and Tehran after months of stalled diplomacy.

37
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: Several Arab and Muslim countries are expected to send representatives

38
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: to the meeting, which ames discussed the framework for a

39
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: possible nuclear agreement that according to two source is familiar

40
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: with the planning and a US official. Another source described

41
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: Friday's meetings as the best case scenario following days of

42
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: diplomatic efforts to bring both sides back to the table now.

43
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: If it occurs, the meeting would be the first between

44
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: the US and the Iranian representative since talks collapsed last

45
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: year and a twelve day conflict that broke out in June.

46
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: It also comes during a significant US military build up

47
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 1: in the Gulf. President Trump has argued that a swift

48
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: agreement is the only alternative to military confrontation with Iran. Now,

49
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 1: a US administration source said the meeting in Turkey is

50
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: intended to develop an agreement that could in fact prevent escalation.

51
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: The Trump administration is also hoping that Iran will arrive

52
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: prepared to make concessions. The plan talks follow recent mediation

53
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: efforts by Turkey, Egypt, and Katar. They don't want war

54
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: in the Middle East because of instability that it can

55
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: cost for their own countries, and on Monday, the foreign

56
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: ministers of Turkey, Saudi Arabian Egypt held further discussions about

57
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: the proposed meeting. Now, the Iranian state media reported that

58
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 1: the president has ordered renewed negotiations with the Trump administrations.

59
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: In fact, in a speech on Monday to Iran and

60
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: the people they're watching, they said they were quote open

61
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 1: to diplomacy, saying, quote but diplomacy is incompatible with pressure, intimidation,

62
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: and force. We hope that it results will soon become evident.

63
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: A key obstacle also remains unsolved. The Trump administration has

64
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: insisted that any agreement address Iran's nuclear program, its missile development,

65
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: and regional proxy forces. They're the biggest funders of terrorism.

66
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: Hamas and has blocked. Iran maintains that only nuclear issues

67
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: are quote negotiable. In other words, they still I want

68
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: to sponsor terrorist proxies in the Middle East and around

69
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 1: the world. Now, it remains unclear how Witkoff and Iran's

70
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 1: leadership would bridge that divide. Obviously, that's part of the

71
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: art of the deal, and that's part of why the

72
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: President of the United States of America said, I'm not wasting time.

73
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,479
Speaker 1: I'm going to send her military resources to that part

74
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: of the world.

75
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 3: Now.

76
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: Ahead of the Istanbul meeting, Witkoff was to travel to

77
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: Israel and meet with the Prime Minister there at Netanyahu's request.

78
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: Witkoff is also scheduled to meet with General Zamir, the

79
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: Israeli Defensive Force chief of staff, who recently briefed US

80
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: military leaders on Israel's planning for a potential conflict with Iran.

81
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: Witkoff will then travel to Abu Dhabi, United Air of

82
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: Emirates for trilateral talks also involving Russia and Ukraine on

83
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 1: Wednesday and Thursday, and Trump's son in law Jered Kushner

84
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,479
Speaker 1: is expected to participate as well. From there, the White House,

85
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: staying busy with Witkoff. Van Kushner said to travel to

86
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 1: Qatar for discussions on Iran with the Qatar's Prime minister,

87
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: and before the meeting, they'll also stop in Istanbul on Friday. Now,

88
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: the foreign ministers were being told from Turkey, Qatar, Egypt, Oman,

89
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: the United Air of Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan are

90
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: all planning to attend. You've got to ask yourself this question. Why,

91
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: Because they're all very concerned about what happens with Iran

92
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: and the instability it can cause in their countries and

93
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 1: also if there's an all out war between Iran and

94
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: Israel or Ran in the US. Right, these are real

95
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 1: problems that they want to make sure don't happen for

96
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 1: them personally. Now, Trump said on Sunday that it remains

97
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: quote hopeful for a deal after Rand's leader warned that

98
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: any US attack could trigger a regional war. But at

99
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: the end of the day, this is all up to

100
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: President Trump. Now, there are some thank goodness in the

101
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: media that understand that present Trump's do an amazing job

102
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: when it comes to dealing with these types of dictators

103
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: and leaders, whether it's Venezuela or Cuba or Iran. Even

104
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: on HBO, Bill Maher giving credit to the President of

105
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 1: United States of America for his leadership, saying this.

106
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 5: You know, we've seen these demonstrations in Iran before, but

107
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 5: this was bigger and more people have died. But I

108
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 5: think maybe more people have died because he said he

109
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 5: was going to help. This looks like a bay of pigs.

110
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 5: To me, This looks like America is going to come

111
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 5: and help you. Where is it this? Remember the courage

112
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 5: in ninety one when they thought they were going to

113
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 5: get help from America. Vietnam could make the same claim.

114
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 5: I mean a lot of people have felt let down

115
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 5: by US. I thought Trump was different. Where are you

116
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 5: on this because all these bodies that I see, these

117
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 5: body bags in Iran, I think a lot of those

118
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 5: people went in the streets because they thought, oh, he

119
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 5: said he's got our back this time.

120
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:56,679
Speaker 3: Where's the help.

121
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 6: Well, the generals have told us that short of sending

122
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 6: in a massive number of troops, it will be another raq.

123
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 5: Well, then what did he mean when he said I

124
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 5: don't know?

125
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 6: But if you look at it from the larger if

126
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 6: you look at it from a larger perspective, because of Israel.

127
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 6: This is one person's opinion. Because of Israel and President

128
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 6: Trump's backing visory, the Middle East is safer than it

129
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 6: has been in twenty years. Absolutely, Sneeze has boss Sneeze.

130
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 3: I gave him credit for that.

131
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 6: No longer looks invincible. And you know, and you know

132
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 6: who is applauding us every step of the way, not

133
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 6: out loud, but the Arab countries.

134
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 5: Look if every one of them, if Venezuela and causes

135
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 5: Cuba to fall, if he somehow gets Venezuela, Cuba, and

136
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 5: Iran all to be not these horrible places they were,

137
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 5: he should get a Nobel Peace Prize.

138
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: He should get a Nobel Peace Prize. I got to

139
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: give credit there to Bill Maher. You heard Senner Kennedy

140
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: laying it out, and he agreed with him. He said

141
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: he was absolutely right. And I wish there was more

142
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: in the media that would actually cover this honestly, the

143
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 1: way that Bill Maher just talked about it. President Donald

144
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: Trump doing another sit down interview talking about a wide

145
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: range of issues, and we're going to get into many

146
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: of those, but one of the ones that was very

147
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: important to the president was dealing with Iran, saying that

148
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: Iran would be foolish not to make a nuclear missile deal.

149
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: He also talked about sending a second aircraft carrier to

150
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 1: the region, Trump warning I Ran, don't be foolish and

151
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: get a deal done now. The comments landed hours after

152
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: Axios reported that Trump is considering sending his second aircraft

153
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: carrier strike group to the Middle East. If negotiations collapse,

154
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: either we will make a deal or we will not

155
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: have a deal, and we'll have to do something very tough,

156
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: like last time. Trump told Axos, adding we have an

157
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: armada that is heading there, and another one might be going.

158
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: A US official also confirmed discussions about deploying another strike group,

159
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: ACXOS reported in addition to the USS Abraham Lincoln in

160
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: its strike group. And this is clearly a build up

161
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: that Trump is framed as both leverage and the alternative

162
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: to diplomacy. In that context, Last Time is a direct

163
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: reference to the Operation Midnight Hammer, the US strikes on

164
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: Iran's nuclear sykes roughly six months ago to cap the

165
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: twelve day Israel Iran War, a precedent Trump is explicitly

166
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: holding up as the consequences of Iranian defiance, that threat

167
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: of escalation is colliding with Tehran's declared red lines. Irana's

168
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: publicly insisted negotiations being limited strictly to nuclear enrichment levels,

169
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: not enrichment itself, and has rejected any discussion of missiles

170
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: or regional pro forces that would be them supporting Hezblahamas

171
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 1: and other terrorist organizations. And that's where the fueling of

172
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: the skepticism in Washington as well as an Israel in

173
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: Jerusalem that a comprehensive deal is well maybe not even

174
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: realistic with Iran. The Israeli Prime Minister net Yahoo is

175
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: also set to meet with President Trump today at the

176
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 1: White House, with Iram being the first and foremost issue

177
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: on the agenda. Netnyahu said he has departed for Washington,

178
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:36,679
Speaker 1: adding he will represent the essential principles he argues are

179
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 1: vital not only for Israel, but to everyone around the

180
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: world who wants peace and security in the Middle East. Now,

181
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: this also comes as US Ambassador to Israel, Mike Kakabee,

182
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: speaking before boarding a flight to Washington, Netnyaho's said there

183
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: is quote extraordinary alignment between Israel and the United States

184
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 1: on Iran while stressing the outcome ultimately depends on Tehran's choices.

185
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 1: On the Iranian side, officials moved quickly to reinforce their position.

186
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: The Iranian Foreign minister said Tuesday that Israel is attempting

187
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 1: to sabotage diplomacy and warned US officials not to allow

188
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: outside actors a shape American foreign policy, while also criticizing

189
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 1: new sanctions announced after the Oman meetings took place. Now,

190
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: this isn't all that the President dealt with today. In

191
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: the interview, he also talked about the border and how

192
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: important it is that we have a secure border. Here's

193
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: what President Trump had to say on Fox Business with

194
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: Larry Kudlow.

195
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 2: We have the strongest border in the history of our country.

196
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: We have Democrat people giving us the statistics that no

197
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 2: people have come into a country illegally in the last

198
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 2: seen months. Even I can't believe that totally, but I'll

199
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 2: take it. But essentially, no people have come in. Nobody's

200
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 2: coming through a border. They only come in legally. We've

201
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 2: done an unbelievable job. I don't think we've given any credit.

202
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 2: One of the problems that I find in politics. So

203
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 2: I got elected to a large extent on the border.

204
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,199
Speaker 2: I've done such a good job on the border that

205
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 2: nobody wants to talk about it anymore. Like when I

206
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 2: mentioned border, sir, they don't want to hear about it.

207
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 2: You solve that problem. I don't get any credit for anything.

208
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 2: I mean, I do these things. You would say I've

209
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 2: done a great job at the border, right nobody coming in.

210
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 2: We have a strong border. Drugs are way down, you know.

211
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 2: By knocking out those boats. We have dropped drugs spent

212
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 2: about thirty three percent.

213
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 3: And now we're going to start on land.

214
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 2: We had to do the boats first because they would

215
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,959
Speaker 2: go immediately to the boats. If you hit them on land,

216
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 2: they go to the boat. So we do the boats first.

217
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 2: Now there are no boats. Now we're going to hit

218
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 2: them on the land. We're going to hit them very

219
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 2: hard on land. We've knocked down drugs every one of

220
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 2: those boats. It's nasty, but every one of those boats

221
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 2: that shot down in the seas you've been watching it,

222
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 2: we saved twenty five thousand America lives. So we've done

223
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 2: a great job. The problem is that I'm not sure

224
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 2: that people see it. Maybe we have a public relations

225
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,199
Speaker 2: problem because I don't know that we get it out

226
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 2: the way child, because I don't think anybody has had

227
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 2: a more successful first year as a president than I

228
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 2: have with all.

229
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:19,319
Speaker 3: Of the things we did.

230
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 2: And then in the previous administration, my previous my first term,

231
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,359
Speaker 2: I rebuilt the military and that's why we had venezuela

232
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 2: tremendous success. As you know, we have a massive flotilla

233
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 2: right now going over to Iran. We'll see what happens.

234
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 2: I think they want to make a deal. I think

235
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 2: they'd be foolish if they didn't. We took out their

236
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 2: nuclear power last time, and we'll have to see we

237
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 2: take out more this time.

238
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 7: Do you think a deal with you Iran?

239
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 3: Now?

240
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,959
Speaker 1: The President also talked about the issue with sanctuary cities

241
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: as well. And here's where you had to say about

242
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: the criminals that are being protected by so many liberals.

243
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:01,199
Speaker 7: It just seems to me, in generally, we're large. If

244
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 7: you abide by the immigration laws, stop all this sanctuary

245
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 7: city business, that's the most affordable thing possible you save.

246
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 7: I mean, I look at what's happened in New York, Okay,

247
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 7: what Mayor Adams had to spend. He's spent a fortune

248
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 7: on ten twelve billion dollars maybe fifteen billion dollars because

249
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 7: he was giving money away to illegals, many of whom

250
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 7: are criminal illegals. I mean, it seems to me if

251
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 7: those laws are upheld, if sanctuary cities, for example, are defunded,

252
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 7: as you have talked about Lindsey Graham has talked about,

253
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 7: that's an affordability issue. There are huge savings there and

254
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 7: you can go after the waste for aud of them.

255
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 2: So Lindsey Graham is really hot on getting rid of

256
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 2: sanctuary So I'm backing him one hundred percent. We got

257
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 2: to do it. We're hot, and it's sort of the

258
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 2: Security Act you could call it, but we have to

259
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 2: do it. You know, sanctuary cities are only good for people.

260
00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 2: It's sanctuary for criminals. Okay, they are protecting criminals. Those

261
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 2: states could hand those people over to us, their crime

262
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 2: would go down. We'd get them out of the country.

263
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 2: They can't do what we could do. We can get

264
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 2: them out of the country. They can't do it. But

265
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 2: they're sanctuaries for criminals. They have the word, they have killers,

266
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 2: they have drug lords, they have trend de Iragua all

267
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 2: over the place.

268
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 3: Now.

269
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: President Trump was also asked about the Minnesota fraud scandal,

270
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 1: and here's what he had to say about that.

271
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 7: So you're going to still go after the whole waste fraud.

272
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, in Minnesota. Take a look at Minnesota. So

273
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 2: we think it's at least nineteen billion dollars of fraud, medical,

274
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 2: every fraud.

275
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 3: Somalia has come in here.

276
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 2: What they've done to our country, these people they've come

277
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 2: into our country, and what they've done with that fake congresswoman,

278
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 2: she's so bad.

279
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 3: No, we're going to get to the bottom of it.

280
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 2: We have the best, We have the best people in

281
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 2: the maybe in the whole country. Looking at that, well,

282
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 2: looking at California too, because Californias was But you know,

283
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 2: if we find fifty percent, you know, look, they've been

284
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 2: robbing and ripping off this country for many years, for decades. Right,

285
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 2: if we find fifty percent of what's happened, we have

286
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 2: a balanced budget without cutting anybody.

287
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 3: We have a balanced budget, and we'll find it.

288
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 2: Minnesota's very corrupt, California is very corrupt.

289
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 3: A lot of states are very corrupt.

290
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: You think about the tax issue there, He says, we

291
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 1: have a balanced budget if we can just cut out

292
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: half of the corruption, that's how much is out there

293
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 1: that is being wasted of your tax dollars as we speak.

294
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 1: The President also had this to say about the future

295
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: in this country for Americans when it comes to home

296
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: ownership and interest rates. And also he was asked about

297
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: the FED chair pick.

298
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 3: Take a listen.

299
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 7: Do you know you wanted Kevin Warsh So officially it

300
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 7: was two fridays ago, but when did you.

301
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 3: Well, I made a mistake. He was runner up if

302
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 3: you want to see he was a finalist. Yeah, he was.

303
00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 2: And I made a mistake because I had somebody that

304
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:17,120
Speaker 2: was my Secretary of the Treasury wanted him so badly,

305
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 2: so badly, and you know, I didn't feel good about him,

306
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 2: but sometimes you listen to people, and it was a mistake.

307
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,640
Speaker 2: It was really a big mistake. But I think we're

308
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,119
Speaker 2: going to do something that's really spectacular. And then Biden

309
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 2: renewed him, which was shocking to me. That was bad

310
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 2: because Biden renewed him. I said, oh boy, this is

311
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,200
Speaker 2: loastly because if I win, I'm going to inherit this guy.

312
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 3: For a period of time.

313
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 7: Can I just raise one point?

314
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 3: Well, he has to do his lower interest rates.

315
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 2: Interest rates should be lower, you know, every point is

316
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 2: six hundred billion dollars. Think of that, six hundred billion

317
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,959
Speaker 2: dollars only has to do if we went down two points,

318
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 2: we don't have a deficit anymore. And that's without cutting

319
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 2: and it's just a paper charge, which when you think

320
00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 2: about it, it's a paper charge. We should be the

321
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 2: lowest interest.

322
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 3: Rate in the world.

323
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 2: The reason I bring up the Switzerland because we should

324
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 2: be lower than We should be lower than everybody. You know,

325
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 2: Switzerland's like just about the lowest. If I charge them tariffs,

326
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 2: they would not be doing very well.

327
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 3: They would not be doing very well.

328
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 2: I treated them very nicely, actually, but they would be

329
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 2: and many other countries would not be doing very well.

330
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 2: So I'm being very judicious, to put it mildly, but

331
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 2: this country should have the lowest interest rates in the world.

332
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 3: We keep the world going.

333
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,400
Speaker 2: We allowed you know how many definit when I got here,

334
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 2: Almost every single country in the world that we did

335
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 2: business with made money off of us. We didn't make money.

336
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 2: We had deficits with everybody. And I call that a loss.

337
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 2: You know, a lot of people say, oh, it doesn't matter,

338
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter.

339
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 3: A lot to me. I call it a loss.

340
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 2: So we are losing money with every single country in

341
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 2: the world, just about there are a couple.

342
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 3: I don't know what happened. Maybe we got lucky.

343
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 2: We had the worst negotiators, and we had presidents that

344
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 2: were allows e business people. And you know, I liked

345
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 2: Ronald Reagan. But Ronald Reagan was bad on trade. Everybody

346
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 2: has problems. He was not good on trade. He allowed

347
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 2: Japan to come in and Germany to come in. But

348
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 2: we both like him and he was a good president,

349
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 2: but he wasn't.

350
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 3: Good on trade.

351
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 7: To cut my teeth with him, but Bob Leithheiser would

352
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 7: disagree with you. I don't want to spend too much time.

353
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 7: Reagan was tougher than you think on him.

354
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 3: Only on trade.

355
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 2: I think, well, he had the big, big shootout with

356
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 2: Japan and he folded. He wasn't and they came in

357
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:36,199
Speaker 2: and took our car market.

358
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:37,479
Speaker 3: Can I go back.

359
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:39,199
Speaker 2: I'm a fan of his and I thought he was,

360
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 2: you know, just sort of had a great presence. But

361
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 2: on trade, if you look at every president we have

362
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 2: over the last fifty years, was bad on trade.

363
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 3: Every single one.

364
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 7: Well they didn't understand.

365
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 3: But I'm not bad on trade. I'm real good on trade.

366
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: You're arguing the President talking there not only about trade,

367
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: but also saying that you US should have the lowest

368
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,479
Speaker 1: interest rates in the world. Interest rates should be lower,

369
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: and that means more Americans can afford to buy homes

370
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: and other things. This is the Trump doctrine on full display.

371
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,880
Speaker 1: And he's also doing interviews with whoever wants to talk

372
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 1: to him, another example of the present being so open

373
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 1: about what he wants for this country. I want you

374
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 1: to listen to what came out from the United States

375
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessen. He had a message to

376
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: the Iranian leadership. It was an official video put out

377
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: by the Department of the Treasury, and I want you

378
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 1: to hear his warning and what he had to say

379
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,199
Speaker 1: about these sanctions and what America is doing.

380
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 8: The Iranian leadership on behalf of the people of Iran

381
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 8: who cannot speak for themselves. Last March, we predicted the

382
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 8: President Trump's maximum pressure campaign against the Iranian regime would

383
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 8: accelerate and economic collapse. Since then, our sanctions efforts have

384
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 8: been effective in slashing oil exports and cutting revenue. The

385
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 8: currency and living conditions are in free fall. The early

386
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 8: warning signs are already flashing in the Iranian economy. The

387
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 8: regime continues to egregiously mismanage its economic resources with additional

388
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 8: subsidies and price controls. The central bank is broke and

389
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 8: printing money. Hyperinflation is next. Rather than building a prosperous Iran,

390
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 8: the regime has chosen to squander what remains of the

391
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 8: nation's oil revenues on nuclear weapons development, missiles, and terrorist

392
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 8: proxies around the world. Civilians are rightly protesting mismanagement and

393
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,719
Speaker 8: economic collapse. President Trump stands with the people of Iran

394
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,640
Speaker 8: and has ordered Treasury to sanction members of the regime.

395
00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 8: Around's leaders have brutally responded to peaceful demonstrations with violence,

396
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 8: from mass shootings in the street to attacks on wounded

397
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 8: victims and hospitals. Today's sanctions target eighteen individuals and entities

398
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 8: that the regime uses to evade sanctions on Iranian oil

399
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 8: and divert proceeds from its energy sales away from the

400
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 8: rightful owners, the Iranian people. Tehran's natural resources belong to

401
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 8: its people and not its brutal dictators. Treasury will continue

402
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 8: to target Iranian networks and corrupt elites that enrich themselves

403
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 8: at the expense of average Iranian This includes the regime's

404
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 8: attempts to exploit digital assets to evade sanctions and finance

405
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 8: cyber criminal operations. Additionally, President Trump has announced a twenty

406
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 8: five percent tariff on countries to continue to do business

407
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 8: with Iran. Our message to the Iranian people is clear,

408
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 8: your demands are legitimate, You are protesting for a noble cause,

409
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 8: and the United States support you and your efforts to

410
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 8: peacefully oppose the regimes mismanagement and brutality. Our message to

411
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 8: the Iranian leaders is also clear. US Treasury knows that,

412
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 8: like rats on a sinking ship, your frantically wiring funds

413
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 8: stolen from Iranian families to banks and financial institutions around

414
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 8: the world. Rest assured we will track them and you.

415
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 8: But there's still time if you choose to join us.

416
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 8: As President Trump has said, stop the violence and stand

417
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 8: with the people of Iran.

418
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 1: Now, what's interesting about that message that you just heard.

419
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:47,479
Speaker 1: There is something I think it's really important. It's we

420
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,119
Speaker 1: know exactly what's happening on the ground, but we also

421
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,400
Speaker 1: know what's happening at the banks. We know what's happening

422
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 1: with the wires and the money transfers, and this administration

423
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: I think is spot on We see the rats as

424
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: they just and the Rats and Iran see that this

425
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,160
Speaker 1: is a sinking ship and they're shipping their money out

426
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: as fast as they can, wiring it out because they're

427
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 1: looking for their exit strategy. That tells you a lot

428
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 1: about where we are right now. Now. That's An also

429
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 1: went on Newsmax and had this to say on Rob

430
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: Schmid's show, Listen carefully the words you use about the

431
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: US pressure on Iran's economy.

432
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,640
Speaker 8: I see to that, and Rob. The other thing, as Treasury,

433
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 8: who carries out the sanctions, we can see is we

434
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,199
Speaker 8: are now seeing the rats fleeing the ship because we

435
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 8: can see millions, tens of millions of dollars being wired

436
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 8: out of the country, snuck out of the country by

437
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 8: the Iranian leadership. So they are abandoning ship and we

438
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 8: are seeing it come into banks and financial institutions all

439
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 8: over the world. And what we do with Treasury is

440
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 8: we follow the money, whether it is through the typical

441
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 8: banking system or through digital assets. We are going to

442
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 8: trace these assets and they will not be able to keep.

443
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: You go back to the core here. He revealed that

444
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,919
Speaker 1: the Iranian leadership is moving their money out of Iran

445
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 1: their abandoning ship, he said. Treasury, which carries out the sanctions,

446
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: can see it, and we are now seeing the rats

447
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 1: fleeing this ship. We can see millions, tens of millions

448
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: of dollars being wired out of the country, snuck out

449
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,440
Speaker 1: of the country by the Iranian leadership. So the Iranian leadership,

450
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: he's saying, at this hour our abandoning ship. We're seeing

451
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,959
Speaker 1: it coming to banks and financial institutions all over the world.

452
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,640
Speaker 1: And what we do with Treasury said, we follow the money.

453
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 1: The Iranian regime in real time is falling, and Scott

454
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 1: is getting this out for a reason. One main reason,

455
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 1: it's so that the people in Iran understand what's happening.

456
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: We're also saying that there are trucks that look like

457
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: they could hold chemical and buy logical radioactive weapons units

458
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: that have been seen on the streets were being told

459
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: in Iran. There's been more reports of chemical gas used

460
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 1: against anti regime protesters during the last two weeks, and

461
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 1: we keep seeing some of this come out in that

462
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 1: part of the world. Now it's hard to verify because

463
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: the internet's been shut down, and not only is the

464
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 1: Internet been shut down, but so the phones but Iran's

465
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 1: oil revenue stream and is really getting knocked down. And

466
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: then you have the Treasury that's further trying to degrade

467
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 1: the regime's ability to carry out attacks against the US

468
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: it's allies, and they say, not only that, but we're

469
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 1: remaining committed to ol supply, to an oil supply that

470
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: is free from Iran, and they said it will continue

471
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 1: the efforts to disrupt the ongoing issues in Tehran. Again,

472
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 1: this is all about the oil. You take away the oil,

473
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 1: you take away the money, and what happens. It collapses quickly.

474
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 8: In President Trump has been clear Iran must stop sponsoring terror,

475
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,919
Speaker 8: halts its bloody proxy wars, and cease its pursuit of

476
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 8: nuclear weapons. That is why Treasury is taking further action

477
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,880
Speaker 8: to degrade the Ayatola and his regime's ability to finance

478
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 8: terrorism around the world, including its growing influence in Iraq.

479
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 8: Treasury is sanctioning a rogue businessman and his network of

480
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 8: companies and vessels that smuggle Iranian oil disguised as Iraqi

481
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:38,960
Speaker 8: oil to avoid US sanctions. This network generates over three

482
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:44,120
Speaker 8: hundred million annually for Tehran. Smuggling of this nature allows

483
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 8: Iranian oil to be sold to US allies and possibly

484
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 8: to the United States itself in violation of US sanctions.

485
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 8: The United States will apply economic pressure to the maximum

486
00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 8: extent possible to disrupt Iran's access to the finance natural

487
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 8: resources that fuel its destabilizing activities.

488
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: There it is, you notice what Donald Trump's doing here,

489
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:17,120
Speaker 1: Maximum pressure on Iran, maximum pressure using every tool in

490
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 1: his tool belt. Listen to the last thing Besson says here.

491
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:25,920
Speaker 8: Since President Trump retook office, we have implemented a maximum

492
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 8: pressure campaign. In just seven months, we have seen a

493
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 8: significant decline in oil carried by the Shadow Fleet vessels.

494
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 8: We have sanctioned, reduced Tehran's profit margin and made it

495
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 8: increasingly difficult for the regime to export oil. The United

496
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 8: States remains committed to an oil supply free from Iran's

497
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 8: destabilizing influence. We will continue to take action against those

498
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 8: who help fund its global campaign of terror.

499
00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: I go back to this is exactly one I voted

500
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: for President Trump because he's the only one that was

501
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 1: willing to make these decisions, the only one that was

502
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 1: willing to do this.

503
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 3: That's it.

504
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,880
