1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,040 Speaker 1: Having spoken to people who have reviewed the video. You 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: see the car come crashing through the door. You see 3 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 1: what appears to be shellcasings being ejected through the driver's 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 1: side window as he's firing, and then you see the 5 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: car gets all the way down to the end of 6 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,960 Speaker 1: the hall and then this fire starts. 7 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 2: So it's suggestive. 8 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: That it was a ramming attack for anybody who was 9 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: in the hallway, which happened to be clear at the time, 10 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: a shooting attack for anybody who was an available target, 11 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: which were the security people who shot back. And this 12 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: explosive attack, where it appears at least he was able 13 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: to initiate, ignite, detonate some connection to these explosives that 14 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: were in the back of the vehicle, which if they 15 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: didn't explode, they certainly caused that conflagration that caused that 16 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 1: fire that blackened the hallway, filled the building with smoke. 17 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: And right now as we're sitting here, two things are 18 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: going on. One FBIATF and the Oakland County bomb investigators 19 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,679 Speaker 1: are trying to figure out is anything in the back 20 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 1: of that car something that is still live or explosive 21 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 1: that needs to be dealt with, And structural engineers are 22 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: coming in to see is the structure strong enough so 23 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: that they can move that car out of there and 24 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 1: process at someone Well. 25 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 3: Anderson, we're hearing this neighborhood of fairly upscale town hases, 26 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 3: this kind of courtyard of town has us here in Sterling, Virginia. 27 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 3: Learning a little bit more about the suspect and the 28 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 3: suspect's family. This suspect identified as thirty six year old 29 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 3: Mohammad by Laura Jello, a former Virginia National Guard member, who, 30 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 3: as we've been reporting, serve nearly seven years in prison 31 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 3: after completing guilty to trying to aid the terror group ISIS, 32 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 3: officials at the time saying he was trying to procure 33 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 3: weapons for an ISIS attack. Now, at the specific address 34 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,279 Speaker 3: where we will leave the suspect lived, there is a sign, 35 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 3: a paper sign taped to the front door saying, quote 36 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 3: we do not wish to speak to the press end quote. 37 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 3: I knocked on that door three separate times. Twice a 38 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 3: man answered. The first time, he just pointed to the 39 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 3: sign and said, we really don't want to talk to you, 40 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 3: and then close the door. The second time he answered, 41 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 3: he said, he said, I'm going to try to be 42 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 3: as nice to you as I can about this, but 43 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 3: we really don't want to talk to the media. 44 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 2: He said. 45 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 3: You have to understand we're going through a very tough time. 46 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 3: I asked him if he was the suspect's father. He 47 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 3: did not answer that question, and then a young lady 48 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 3: standing behind him said pretty loudly, seriously, and then they 49 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 3: shut the door. Other neighbors that we spoke to here. 50 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 3: I spoke to five different neighbors who describe a very 51 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 3: large family living at that residence, multiple members of a 52 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 3: family of multiple generations. But they say the family really 53 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 3: didn't interact with neighbors, and the neighbors really did not 54 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 3: interact with them. One neighbor I spoke to who said 55 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 3: he often would walk by the suspect when he would 56 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 3: take his walks in the neighborhood. He said, the first 57 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 3: time he passed the suspect, he said hi to the suspect. 58 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 3: He said, the suspect didn't say anything. He just looked 59 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,399 Speaker 3: to the ground. He said every single time he would 60 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 3: pass them after that, the suspect would just look to 61 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 3: the ground. And, in the words of this neighbor quote, 62 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 3: something about him just didn't sit well with me. Another 63 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 3: neighbor said Anderson, I'm surprised that they released him and 64 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 3: let him come back here. So neighbors here expressing some shocks, 65 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 3: some surprise, some frustration that he was in the neighborhood. 66 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 3: And as we described seeing I've been reporting here tonight, 67 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 3: there was a very grisly scene inside that ROTC classroom 68 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 3: with other students subduing the suspect, in one of them 69 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 3: apparently stabbing him to death. 70 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: Scott Bessett said, the US Navy will be escorting oil 71 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: tankers through the strait. 72 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 4: That was always in our planning that the chance that 73 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 4: US Navy or perhaps an international coalition will be escorting 74 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 4: oil tankers through. There are in fact tankers coming through now, 75 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 4: Iranian tankers. I believe some Chinese flag tankers have come through, 76 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 4: so we know that they have not mine the straits. 77 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 4: My belief that as soon as it is militarily possible, 78 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 4: the US navying, perhaps with an international coalition, will be 79 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 4: escorting vessels through. 80 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 5: Whether if I have fueling tanker crashed after colliding, it 81 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 5: appears with another tanker which ultimately landed safely in Israel. 82 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 5: But there are a lot of questions surrounding Sentcom's statements 83 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 5: which they in which they said that this was not 84 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 5: due to hostile fire or friendly fire, because an Iranian 85 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 5: proxy group based in Iraq has now come out and 86 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 5: taken responsibility for downing that aircraft. Of course, they did 87 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 5: not provide evidence, but these proxy groups, they do, they 88 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 5: do have surface to air missiles, and so it's possible, 89 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 5: for example, that what happened was these tankers were trying 90 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 5: to evade a missile, or perhaps this was just an 91 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 5: incident of a mid air collision of these tankers just 92 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 5: flying too closely together. I mean, there's so many possibilities here, 93 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 5: but the bottom line is that four US service members 94 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 5: are now confirmed to be dead to others, apparently the 95 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 5: search is ongoing for them. Unclear what they're whereabouts and 96 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 5: their condition is. As of this moment. 97 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 6: Between our air force and that of. 98 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 7: The Israelis, over fifteen thousand enemy targets have been struck. 99 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 7: That's well over one thousand a day. No other combination 100 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 7: of countries in the world can do that. So today, 101 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 7: as we speak, we fly over the top of Iran 102 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 7: and Tehran fighters and bombers all day, picking targets as 103 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 7: they choose. As our intelligence gets better and better and 104 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 7: more refined. Looking up, the IRGC and Iranian regime sees 105 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 7: only two things on the. 106 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 6: Side of aircraft, the stars and stripes and the star 107 00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 6: of David. The evil regimes worst mare. 108 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 7: Iran has no air defenses, Iran has no air force, 109 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,359 Speaker 7: Iran has no navy. Their missiles, their missile launchers and 110 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 7: drones being destroyed or shot out of the sky. Their 111 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,239 Speaker 7: missile volume is down ninety percent. There one way attack 112 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 7: drones yesterday down ninety five percent. And as the world 113 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 7: is seeing, they are exercising sheer desperation in the straits. 114 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 6: Of our moods. 115 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 7: Something we're dealing with, We have been dealing with it and. 116 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 6: Don't need to worry about it. We're on planned to. 117 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 7: Defeat, destroy, disable all of their meaningful military capabilities at 118 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 7: a pace the world. 119 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 6: Has never seen before. They're confused, and we know it. 120 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 7: Our response we will keep pressing, we will keep pushing, 121 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 7: keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies. Yet 122 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 7: some of this crew in the press just can't stop. 123 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 7: Allow me to make a few suggestions. People look up 124 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 7: at the TV and they see banners, they see headlines. 125 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 7: I used to be in that business, and I know 126 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 7: that everything is written intentionally. For example, a banner or 127 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 7: a headline mid East War intensifies, splashing on the screen 128 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 7: the last couple of days, alongside visuals of civilian or 129 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 7: energy targets that Iran has hit because that's what they do. 130 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 7: What should the banner read instead? How about Iran increasingly 131 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 7: desperate because they are. 132 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 6: They know it, and. 133 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 7: So do you, if it can be admitted or more 134 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 7: fake news from CNN reports that the Trump administration underestimated 135 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 7: the Iran war's impact on the Strait. 136 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 6: Of Horror moves. Patently ridiculous. 137 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 7: Of course, for decades, Iran has threatened shipping in the 138 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 7: Strait of horror moves. This is always what they do. 139 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 7: Hold the straight hostage. CNN doesn't think we thought of that. 140 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 7: It's a fundamentally unserious report. The sooner David Ellison takes 141 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 7: over that network, the better. Another example of a fake 142 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 7: headline that I saw yesterday, war widening. Here's a real 143 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 7: headline for you for an actual patriotic press. How about 144 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 7: Iran shrinking going underground. You see, Iran's leaders are hiding 145 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 7: in bunkers and moving into civilian areas. The only thing 146 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 7: that is widening is our advantage not to mention our 147 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 7: golf partner's stepping up even more now going on the offense, 148 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 7: and have always been with us on the defense with 149 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 7: collective and integrated air defenses. 150 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 2: Said that the US mil day is essentially aerial superiority naval. 151 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 8: Sepiority over Iran. 152 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 9: Yet we're not. 153 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 2: Escorting ships to the strait of form you why how 154 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 2: did you not plan for this? 155 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 7: We plan for it, why we recognize it because ultimately 156 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 7: we want to do it sequentially in a way that 157 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 7: makes the most sense for what we want to achieve 158 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 7: and ensure that we're sending the right signals to the 159 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 7: world when we do so. So when Chris Wright speaks 160 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,839 Speaker 7: or we speak, it's based on a full assessment of 161 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 7: what we're up against, what we want to say to 162 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 7: the world, how we want them to see and understand 163 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,439 Speaker 7: the conflict. It's like this whole idea of the war widening. 164 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 7: That's what the press wants to make it look like, 165 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 7: like it's widening and chaos, and now we're actually closing 166 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 7: in on grabbing hold of and controlling what objectives we 167 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 7: want to achieve and how we want to achieve them. 168 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 2: Shape. 169 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 7: It's called shaping operations and setting the conditions. But when 170 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 7: you shape the environment, you don't always tell. I mean, 171 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 7: foolish political leaders and foolish military leaders of the past 172 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 7: will hang an exact deadline on it, or here's exactly 173 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 7: when we'll do what we're going to do, or here's 174 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 7: how long it's going to take us. And then if 175 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 7: you meet that, maybe you meet it. But if you don't, 176 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 7: you fail. And if you're far beyond. We know exactly 177 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 7: what we're shaping and why we're sending those signals working 178 00:09:57,920 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 7: across the inner Agency. The straight of Hormor moves is 179 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 7: something we've paid attention to from the beginning, and the 180 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 7: American people who can rest assured we will ensure that 181 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 7: our interests are advanced. 182 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 8: No doubt. 183 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 7: The Force absolutely has placed any minds since the ward started. 184 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 5: Is it ron placing new minds? 185 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 7: We've heard them talk about it, just like you've reported 186 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 7: recklessly and wildly about it, But there we have no 187 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 7: clear evidence. 188 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 6: We have no clear evidence of that. 189 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 9: Thank you here, mister Secretary. 190 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 4: Giving everything that us have accomplished in the last twenty 191 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 4: four hours us up today, how do you define success? 192 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 7: Iron's leadership is in no better shape desperate and hiding. 193 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 7: They've gone underground, cowering. That's what rats do. We know 194 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 7: the new so called not so supreme leader is wounded 195 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 7: and likely disfigured. He put out of statement yesterday a 196 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 7: week one actually, but there was no voice and there 197 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:55,359 Speaker 7: was no video. 198 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 6: It was a written statement. He called for unity. 199 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 7: Apparently, killing tens of thousands of protesters is his kind 200 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 7: of unity. Iran has plenty of cameras and plenty of 201 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 7: voice recorders. 202 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 6: Why a written statement? I think you know why. 203 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 7: His father dead. He's scared, and he's injured. He's on 204 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 7: the run, and he lacks legitimacy. It's a mess for them. 205 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 7: Who's in charge Iran may not even know. With every 206 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 7: passing hour, we know, and we know they know that 207 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 7: the military capabilities of their evil regime are crumbling. They 208 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 7: can barely communicate, let alone coordinate. They're confused and we 209 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 7: know it. But war in this context and in pursuit 210 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 7: of peace, is necessary, which is why each day, on 211 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 7: bended knee, we continue to appeal to Heaven, to Almighty 212 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 7: God's providence to watch over and give special skill and 213 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 7: confidence to our leaders and to our warriors, to those 214 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 7: warriors who this nation prays for every single day I 215 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 7: hear from all of you out there who pray for 216 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,959 Speaker 7: them every day. Stay on bended knee and pray for them. 217 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 7: I continue to say to them, godspeed, May the Lord 218 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 7: bless you and keep you and keep going. 219 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 2: This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray 220 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 2: for our enemies because we're going to medieval. 221 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 8: On these people. 222 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 10: There's not got a free shot. 223 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 2: All these networks lying about the people, the people have 224 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 2: had a belly full of it. I know you don't 225 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 2: like hearing that. I know you tried to do everything 226 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 2: in the world to stop that, but you're not going 227 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 2: to stop it. It's going to happen. And where do 228 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: people like that go to share the big line? 229 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 8: Mega media? 230 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 11: I wish in my soul, I wish that any of 231 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 11: these people had a conscience. 232 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 6: Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? 233 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 2: If that answer is to save my country, this country 234 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 2: will be saved. 235 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 8: Worry use your host.

Most important, I talked 259 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 2: to Philip Patrick and the team about why may be 260 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 2: the time for you to start to invest in physical 261 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 2: go check it out.

We're going to get to General Kine Maple 263 00:14:35,960 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 2: all next in the worm Co War Room. 264 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 8: Use your host, Stephen k Man. 265 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 2: Okay, Matt Bowl's with us. We're gonna break down the peat. 266 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: We're cutting the General Cane to get a death. As 267 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 2: acinct about the military operations, you know, Pete's Pete Bowls 268 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 2: with me. Pete's Pete. He's always going to lean in 269 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 2: and be aggressive. But I think if you you know, 270 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:33,119 Speaker 2: they're very focused on what's been accomplished from a military perspective, 271 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 2: and that's that's good. I think you can UH derived 272 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 2: from this Matt Bowle that we now have air supremacy. 273 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 2: We're over Tehran picking targets as we want. We can 274 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 2: now use gravity bombs instead of the what is peak 275 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 2: called the exquisite standoff weapons. And one of the reasons 276 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 2: I don't I think we're running out of standoff weapons. 277 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 2: But we've got air supremacy and we're doing targets and 278 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 2: we're bombing, Uh, the the revolutionary and leadership and so 279 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 2: at will number one. Number two is that the new 280 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 2: iatola looks like President Trump put this up on things 281 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 2: on True Social last night. He may be injured in 282 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 2: one of these raids, disfigured. That's why everything you don't 283 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 2: hear his voice, you don't see his face, you just 284 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 2: hear written proclamations. And the third is we're working on 285 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 2: the streets of horror moos now. I think what's most 286 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 2: important about horror moves is what Scott Bessen said. The 287 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 2: Financial Times is reporting of London right now, is reporting 288 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 2: that Italy and France are in direct negotiations with the 289 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 2: Iranians to get ships that are flagged or with cargo 290 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 2: or oil for France or Italy out. We know the 291 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 2: Chinese Communist Party, I think eleven million barrels, and Scott 292 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 2: just said, look, it doesn't look like it's mind because 293 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 2: certain nations are getting through. I think that's the big 294 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 2: takeaways from this briefing this morning. We're gonna get to 295 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 2: Cana in a minute. But Matt Boyle, national political editor 296 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 2: of Breitbart, your thoughts, Yeah, well. 297 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 9: I think that's a succinct assessment. Also, you know, you 298 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 9: kind of gotta love Pete Haig Seth taking you know, 299 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 9: a blow torture, a nuclear weapon to the fake news, 300 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 9: right like, so maybe you know he's he's got one mode, 301 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 9: right which is destroy, right, Like, you know, he goes 302 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 9: in there and he lights up these losers and the 303 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 9: establishment press. But I mean, look, I think the big 304 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,199 Speaker 9: thing that people want to see right now from the 305 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 9: Trump administration is the update on the specific progress, what 306 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 9: still needs to be done and you know where things 307 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 9: stand and what's still is, you know, what hurdles are 308 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 9: still in the way ahead. So I think that's the 309 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 9: information that people are looking for, and you're able to 310 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 9: glean that, I think, Steve. But you know, sometimes maybe 311 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 9: we get a little distracted and destroying the fake news 312 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 9: and they're fake news attacks on the administration and on 313 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:01,719 Speaker 9: the administration's efforts. But overall all, you know, as long 314 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 9: as we get the update on the details throughout the 315 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 9: whole thing, and I think you're able to pick that 316 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 9: out at the press conference this morning, then that's that's 317 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 9: good And it does appear to be good news. 318 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: Let's go back. Let's hear okay, let's go back. The 319 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 2: Reuters is reporting this morning, various voices inside the administration 320 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 2: are saying, hey, this is what we got to do. 321 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 2: Other people saying, this is what we got to do somewhere, 322 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 2: stay the course and keep it going for a couple 323 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 2: more weeks. Others are let's get an off ramp, let's 324 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 2: figure out to sing home news and get off. You 325 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: just mentioned people are looking for as you see it 326 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 2: right now, Matt, how what would you discern as at 327 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 2: this right this moment, right here, what are the military 328 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 2: objectives of this that you know, once accomplished, we can 329 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 2: we can then the president can start making decisions about 330 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,120 Speaker 2: how much longer this thing lasts. 331 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 9: Well, I think the biggest question is is what's left 332 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,239 Speaker 9: behind and Iran? Right, so, you know the new US 333 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 9: that the new Ayahtola, the son of the old Iatola 334 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 9: who was killed on the first night UH is disfigured 335 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 9: and you know in serious you know, medical issues apparently 336 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 9: you know, hurting an attack and not even able to 337 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 9: appear on camera or even a voice recording is a 338 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 9: significant development. The So is he going to lead the 339 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 9: country or not? Or is this a temporary thing? It 340 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 9: is you know, an oligarchy around him that's really controlling 341 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 9: and pulling the strengths. Who are those people? What does 342 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 9: this look like. So I think that you know, what 343 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 9: does the you know, I know that they say the 344 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 9: goal was in regime change, Well they change the regime 345 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 9: because they killed the Iyahtola on the first night. So 346 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 9: what is left behind? And does it you know, is 347 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 9: it any better for the American interests if and when, 348 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 9: you know, we walk away? And I'm pretty sure that 349 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 9: the day is coming where we're going to walk away. Secondly, 350 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 9: is the Irans are Are Iran's entire military capabilities disabled 351 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,880 Speaker 9: and disintegrated? Right? Are they able to shoot these missiles? 352 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 9: You know, we've been hearing about Iran having these weapons 353 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 9: for a long time, and then Iran proved it on 354 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 9: the first night. In response, what do they do? They 355 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 9: fired at every Gulf nation? Right, So, in fact, I 356 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 9: do think that the Iranians did more to unite the 357 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 9: Golf countries than anything the West or the Golf countries 358 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 9: have done at all in the last thirty years. And 359 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 9: then in just a matter of weeks here by firing 360 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 9: at Katar and Saudi and UAE and Israel. I mean, 361 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 9: they're all kind of in the bunker together now, if 362 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 9: you will, and responding to this together. So I think 363 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 9: that you know, what does the Iranian missed capability look like? 364 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,400 Speaker 9: And what you know, what is remains of their nuclear 365 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 9: program if anything? And uh you know, are they able 366 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 9: to rebuild it at some point or not? And as 367 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 9: long as that is the addressed and answered and we 368 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 9: know what takes their place, I think it's time to 369 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 9: figure out what are the what does the exit look 370 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 9: like here? Right like? And it does appear to be 371 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 9: a mess military success? 372 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, hangar for one second, let's get to General Kane. 373 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 2: We got about three or four minute thing on Kane, 374 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 2: and I want to have your comments and Neil mccab's 375 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 2: on this. Let's go and play it. 376 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 12: And thank you for joining us today. Before I start 377 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 12: with an update, I also want to address the tragic 378 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 12: loss of our Case one thirty five refueling aircraft yesterday. 379 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 12: The incident occurred over friendly territory in western Iraq while 380 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 12: the crew was on a combat mission, and again was 381 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 12: not the result as Senkammas said, was not the result 382 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 12: of hostile or friendly fire. We're still treating this as 383 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 12: an active rescue and recovery operation, as Sankoma ounce this 384 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 12: morning for airmen have been recovered and the Air Force 385 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 12: and US Central Command will provide updates as information becomes available. 386 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 2: Please keep these. 387 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 12: Brave airmen, their families, friends, and units in your thoughts 388 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,640 Speaker 12: in the coming hours and days. Our service members make 389 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 12: an incredible sacrifice to go forward and do the things 390 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 12: that the nation asks of them. It's a reminder of 391 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 12: the true cost of the dedication and commitment of the 392 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 12: joint Force. We're also aware of a fire on board 393 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 12: the USS Gerald R. 394 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 2: Ford. 395 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 12: We're thinking about the crew there who are injured in 396 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 12: the fire. We believe and hope that everyone will be okay, 397 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 12: and we're grateful for that, and for any further questions 398 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 12: on that, we'd refer you to nabsent or to the Navy. 399 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 12: This morning, we enter the thirteenth day of Operation Epic Fury, 400 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 12: and we continue to make progress towards our military objectives. 401 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 12: As the Secretary said, today will be our heaviest day 402 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 12: of kinetic fires across the operating area. SANCOM continues to 403 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 12: attack ballistic missile and drone capabilities that they are no 404 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 12: longer a threat to US forces, our bases, or our partners. 405 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,479 Speaker 12: They're continuing to destroy the Iranian Navy to ensure freedom 406 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 12: of navigation, and this means going after Iran's mind laying 407 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 12: capability and destroying their ability to attack commercial vessels, and 408 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 12: we're targeting their defense industrial base so they cannot rebuild 409 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 12: the capabilities that can harm America's interests or our partners 410 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 12: in the future. As Admiral Cooper said in his update 411 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:34,719 Speaker 12: on Wednesday, Iranian combat power continues to decline as a 412 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 12: result of the continued strikes. As a secretary talked about, 413 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 12: We've attacked over six thousand targets and our strike packages 414 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 12: continue to launch every hour, and we've maintained an unprecedented 415 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 12: number of sorties up over ahead of Iran. Santcam is 416 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 12: now persistently over the enemy, and a result, we've seen 417 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 12: a reduction in missile in one way attack fires. 418 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 2: As the secretary said, in less than two. 419 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 12: Weeks, we've rendered the Iranian navy combat ineffective and continue 420 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 12: to attack naval vessels, including all of their Solomani class warships, 421 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 12: which were armed with anti ship missiles and anti aircraft weapons. 422 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 12: We've made progress, but Iran still has the capability to 423 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 12: harm friendly forces in commercial shipping, and our work on 424 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 12: this effort continues. 425 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 2: But I want to make something clear. 426 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 12: The only thing preventing commercial traffic and flow through the 427 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 12: straits right now, which there is some through the straits 428 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:36,360 Speaker 12: is Iran. They are the belligerents here holding the straits closed, 429 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 12: although there is some traffic moving through there. We've made 430 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 12: it a priority to target Iran's mind laying, enterprise, their 431 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 12: mind layers, the naval bases and depots, in addition to 432 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 12: the missiles that could influence the straits, and Sencom continues 433 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 12: to attack those efforts, and we continue to make progress 434 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 12: on the industrial base to include factories, weapons, warehouses that 435 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 12: are stored in and we will continue to do so 436 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 12: in the coming days, especially today. 437 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 2: If we were to cut that tighter and start at 438 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 2: day thirteen, Matt Boyle, that's about two minutes in fifteen 439 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,239 Speaker 2: twenty seconds. I think it's one of the reasons that 440 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 2: President Trump really holds General Kin in high regard, because 441 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 2: right there, you've got a bang, bang, bang bang. Here's 442 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 2: exactly what we're doing. We're doing methodically. Here, the results 443 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 2: have been, here's what they got. Your thoughts. Give me 444 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 2: a minute, mat before we go to break on Kane. 445 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think that General Kane has it together. I mean, 446 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,120 Speaker 9: that's that's as detailed as you can get. I mean, 447 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 9: we're two less than two weeks into a war, and 448 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 9: it appears as though, you know, well again without any 449 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 9: ground troops and you know, sent into Iran, we've we've 450 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 9: basically won, right Like I mean, they're they're talking about 451 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 9: like the final bows that they're tye in here and 452 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 9: the final knots that they're figuring out. This is this 453 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 9: is the the end, right like, I mean, there, you know, 454 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 9: there's a little bit left of Iran's naval capability. 455 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,439 Speaker 2: It's the it's this this yeah, this is this is what. Yeah, 456 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 2: this is what I think. Hang on, we're gonna go 457 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 2: to break and we'll bring you back. Matt Bull, National 458 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 2: political editor at Breitbart. It is certainly closing in on 459 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 2: the end of their conventional and nuclear capabilities and industrial base, 460 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 2: et cetera. Now we've got to discuss asymmetric warfare, because 461 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 2: that's that's what they're trying to hang their head on 462 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,439 Speaker 2: in the Gulf in in other places. Matt Bull's with 463 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 2: us name with caves at the White House were packed 464 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 2: this morning. Updates on where the war is also the 465 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 2: war on Capitol Hill for the Save America Act. The 466 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 2: President United States is pretty pretty blunt. Nothing happening. Until 467 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 2: that gets past, we'll see if it's optics are reality. 468 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:50,880 Speaker 2: Next in the War Room. 469 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 8: Use your host, Stephen k. 470 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 2: Okay. Welcome back. Neil McCabe is at the White House. 471 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: We're going to go back to Matt Bowl here in 472 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 2: a moment. Neil, your assessment of what you saw this morning, 473 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 2: General kin Pete hexath An update, looks like the methodical 474 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 2: takedown at the conventional forces of the Iranian government goes on. 475 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 2: And now with air supremacy and the ability not to 476 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 2: use these very expensive standoff weapons but to get in 477 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 2: the old fashioned way and just start dropping them, looks 478 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 2: like making real progress. Accring to General Kine, your thoughts. 479 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 13: Yeah, absolutely, And you know those targets are also moving 480 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 13: into the East, which is more difficult terrain and where 481 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 13: things are where things are buried into the mountains. So 482 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 13: you know, it was a four week program that it 483 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 13: seems to be ahead of schedule. And I think that 484 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,400 Speaker 13: you know, everything on the tactical operation side is working. 485 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:06,199 Speaker 13: The problem is with the strategic and geopolitical because you know, 486 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 13: you have people in the administration who are you know, 487 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 13: watching the midterms, watching the polls, like Matt was saying, 488 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 13: I thought it was really important that this press conference 489 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 13: got some information out because a lot of times, Steve. 490 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 10: It's not what is said, but why it is said. 491 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 13: And why they had to come out this morning and 492 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 13: put out this information was to say, hey, this is 493 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 13: what's going on. 494 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 10: We're making progress. Things are good, you know. 495 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 13: Geopolitically, I was pretty concerned that France and Italy are 496 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 13: kind of like negotiating a separate piece. 497 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 10: But I think that'll all play out in the end. 498 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 2: Well that's in. I think the importance here is that 499 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,719 Speaker 2: we've been advocating. I don't think you can get too 500 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 2: much of General Kine and Armal Cooper. I think when 501 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 2: you talk about military objectives in what the driving force 502 00:28:55,720 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 2: of this is, the you know, the Klausovician, the the 503 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 2: the center of gravity of this fight is is it's 504 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 2: a military operation at the end of the day, and 505 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 2: and where do we stand in the military operation where 506 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 2: we then can say, hey, these target sets, these objectives 507 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 2: have have been met. 508 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 5: UH. 509 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 2: And then obviously you're dealing with the geopolitical and the 510 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 2: UH and the geostrategic and economic and all that. But 511 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 2: right now the most important thing is still to continue 512 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 2: to look through and see these things are being accomplished. 513 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 2: As they're accomplished. I will say in duly note that 514 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 2: in the objectives of General Kine and Sencom, we have 515 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 2: not heard unconditional surrender. We have not heard the to 516 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 2: take away the ability of the regime to do power 517 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 2: projection on their people. That was a that was an 518 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 2: objective last week. It's not an objective now. I think 519 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 2: we're back to the original objectives of this military operation. 520 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 2: Matt Boyle, what about holding together? Are you? Are you 521 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 2: seeing any squeamishness on Capitol Hill. I know there's a 522 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 2: lot of pressure on Bessent. Eric Bowen's going to join 523 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 2: us about the how much is actually being released by 524 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 2: the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. We've got the midterms, and obviously 525 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 2: we have this huge issue next week of Save America. 526 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 2: But just on the war itself, what temperature do you 527 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 2: have of where people are well? 528 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 9: I think that first off, Republicans on Capitol Hill are 529 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 9: very much united in the threats from around and they're 530 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 9: stand with the President on this. At the same time, 531 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 9: there are political consequences here. The you know, the question 532 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 9: is with the gas prices going up and the questions 533 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 9: regarding the straight of her moves, right, like people are 534 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 9: seeing you know, I mean what we had gas price 535 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 9: as well, under three dollars what a couple of weeks ago, 536 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 9: and now they're up a little higher, right because of 537 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 9: all of this. You see the price of oil going 538 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 9: up and down. You see the markets responding, right. So 539 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 9: you know, if this is just a temporary thing for 540 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 9: a few weeks, as the President keeps saying, it's all 541 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 9: going to work out just fine. But you know, again, 542 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 9: the people on Capitol Hill, they're they're concerned about their 543 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 9: re elections, They're concerned about poll numbers, They're concerned about 544 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 9: that kind of stuff, in addition to the threats from 545 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 9: the Islamic Republic of Iran. So you know, that's that's 546 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 9: going to be the big concern moving forward here is 547 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 9: you know, that's why I keep saying the big question 548 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 9: is is what is the exit strategy? What is the endgame? Right? 549 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 9: What does this look like? What is it? You know 550 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 9: that and that you're beginning to get answers to those 551 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 9: questions from the Secretary of War, from the Chairman of 552 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 9: the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and I think from the President. 553 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 9: The President keeps talking about how this thing is almost over. 554 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 9: This thing is almost over, and he's been saying that 555 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 9: for the last several days if you listen to him, right, 556 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 9: So the the you know, getting that from our military 557 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 9: leaders now about what does this look like when it's 558 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 9: over and when we're done in Iran? And what is 559 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 9: the the end strategy look like. I know that Hegseeth 560 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 9: is saying that he doesn't want to put a time 561 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 9: constraint on it. That's that's that's a reasonable point. But 562 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 9: at the same time, it's figure out what is this 563 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 9: end like, what does this endgame look like? And what 564 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 9: is uh, you know, us leaving. 565 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 2: Well, the president has been saying, he has he has 566 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 2: been saying, hey, he has been saying, hey, I want 567 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 2: to make sure we don't leave before this is all done. Right, 568 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 2: there are a set of objectives. What your supremacy itself? Now, yeah, 569 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 2: it's it's it's what you do. And that now the 570 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 2: asymmetric part, the part with the because Bloomberg's got charts 571 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 2: out there, the longer her moos stays closed, and as 572 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 2: we now know, her moos is closed to certain flags. 573 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 2: If you have the Chinese Communist Party flag, you get 574 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 2: out and get the old which I don't understand why 575 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 2: we're allowing that, But greater minds than mind are working 576 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 2: on this. 577 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 7: Now. 578 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 2: We know from the Financial Times that our great allies 579 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 2: in Italy and France are in direct negotiations with the 580 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 2: Iranians to see if they can't get into the into 581 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 2: the the friendly flag business, then get their cargo and 582 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 2: get their oil designated for them out of the Persian Gulf. 583 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 2: Your thoughts on your thoughts on our great alleys. Also 584 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 2: the Arabs, I think it's pretty evident they turned out 585 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 2: to be paper tigers in this situation. That's why you 586 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 2: got Lindsay Graham having a couple of bourbons and branches 587 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 2: and then screaming at the Saudi's that you got to 588 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 2: stop double dealing this, you got to get in this fight. 589 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 2: Your thoughts are yeah. 590 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 9: I the I mean, look, at the end of the day, 591 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 9: what we want to see is the open flow of 592 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 9: commerce through the Strait of Hermus and through all of 593 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 9: the straits in the Middle East and throughout the throughout 594 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 9: the world. And so if we can figure out ways 595 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 9: to get there, that's a good thing. So I get 596 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 9: it why the Italians and the French would be pushing 597 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 9: for this, right like, and why they would be trying 598 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 9: to get their you know, their ships through and and frankly, uh, 599 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 9: you know other nations as well. But the fact is 600 00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:00,040 Speaker 9: is that again the end of the day here, this 601 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 9: needs to be about an exits strategy, right Like, they 602 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,479 Speaker 9: can't stay there forever, right Like, it's not like this 603 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,799 Speaker 9: is not Iraq, right Like, this is not you know, 604 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 9: we're going to be there for ten years and we're 605 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 9: going to have you know, thousands of Americans on the ground. 606 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 9: That's not going to be the case in Iran, right Like, 607 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 9: That's abundantly clear from this administration. So now it's I 608 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 9: think it's we're at the endgame here, right like, what 609 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 9: does the excess strategy look like, What does the strait 610 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 9: of her moves look like? After this? What does the 611 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 9: current leadership in Iran look like? What does the eventual 612 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 9: leadership in Iran look like? And how do we get 613 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 9: out of there? Now that it appears as though our 614 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 9: military targets are mostly taken out and throughout Iran, right 615 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 9: so I think delineating what's left of military targets in 616 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 9: Iran and then figuring out the exis strategy and then 617 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 9: alleviating the economic pressures on the world, and then all 618 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 9: of this is going to sort itself out. And I 619 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 9: think the President's exactly right when he keeps talk the 620 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 9: way he talks about this is that, Okay, the oil 621 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 9: price is going to go up a little bit, because obviously, 622 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 9: when you're at war in the Middle East and commerce 623 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,919 Speaker 9: is disrupted, that happens. But as soon as it's over 624 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 9: and it's wrapped up and the US military is returned 625 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 9: home and we're not there anymore, then not operating inside 626 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 9: Iran anymore, then I think that when we get to 627 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 9: that point and the endgame is clear and we're out, 628 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 9: then I think you'll see commerce basically resume as normal, right. 629 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 2: Like, and when that happens normal, let's talk about next week. 630 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 2: Please explain to this audience the kabuki theory are we, 631 00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 2: the President said, And I don't think they got it, 632 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 2: because they're talking about bipartisan housing bills, and there's many 633 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 2: things that they're working on that can start to address 634 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 2: certain of the issues about the economy, But it's really 635 00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 2: the president's actions has the biggest impact. President, and correct 636 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 2: me if I'm wrong, he said, Look, I don't want 637 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 2: to hear it. I want to Save America Act. I 638 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 2: want it passed. If you've got to do the talking filibuster, 639 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 2: do it. If you don't have to do that, then 640 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 2: find But I want to pass this is essential for 641 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 2: the midterm elections. And you've heard nothing but thon give 642 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 2: every reason the world why he can't do it, Why 643 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 2: I don't have the votes? Now I think is overnight. 644 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 2: We believe that there's going to be actually putting it 645 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 2: forward next week in some long debate that could take 646 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 2: many days or weeks. What do you know, sir, Yeah, Well. 647 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 9: They're going to start the thing next week. The question 648 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 9: is is will they be able to get the bill 649 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 9: to the President's desk. And so their opening way of 650 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 9: doing it is they're going to do it as a 651 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,760 Speaker 9: question posed by the House right like to the Senate, 652 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 9: and that allows them to get on the bill with 653 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 9: a fifty vote margin. 654 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 2: What hang on, hang on, explain, explain to explain explain that. 655 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 2: Explain technically, what does that mean? So the audience, because. 656 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 9: The House has already passed Yeah, the House has already 657 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 9: passed this, So the Senate rules allow for them to 658 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 9: do it that way rather than to have a sixty 659 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 9: vote motion to proceed onto the legislation. Normally, there's a 660 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 9: number of different sixty vote margins to get on legislation. 661 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 9: To get to final consideration of it, and then to 662 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 9: the final passage is usually a simple majority. But these 663 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 9: are the Senate arcane rules. They're very complicated. So what 664 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,319 Speaker 9: they're going to do is they're going to get on 665 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 9: the bill a motion to proceed basically. But their way 666 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 9: they're doing it is is that it's a question posed 667 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 9: by the House because the House has passed this bill, 668 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 9: the same America Act, and they're going to do it 669 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 9: that way. They haven't done this in a long time. 670 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 9: So that's a way to get around the sixty vote 671 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 9: threshold on the outset of it. The problem is there's 672 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 9: still a sixty vote threshold on the back end, right like. 673 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 9: And this is the issue that Corning Thune all these 674 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 9: guys are standing in the way of they refuse to 675 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 9: change the center rules, right like. So President Trump has 676 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 9: said we should get rid of the filibuster. That's the 677 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 9: filibuster rule, right the sixty vote threshold on the back 678 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 9: end of legislation. So they're getting rid of the sixty 679 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 9: vote threshold actually on the open side of the legislation 680 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,920 Speaker 9: to get on the bill, which is a significant development 681 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 9: by the way, So like that's a good step, but 682 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 9: it's still not enough to get off the to get 683 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 9: the you know, to final passage of the bill and 684 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 9: get it to the President's desk. 685 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:36,840 Speaker 2: So is it. 686 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 9: Klicky theater essentially? 687 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 2: Yes, Like, well, hang on, well no, but it's not 688 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 2: computee theater. Are you saying by getting on the bill 689 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 2: and doing this methodology, we're actually going to have the 690 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 2: Democrats forced to sit there and defend why they they 691 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 2: don't want voter id why they don't want to clean 692 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,400 Speaker 2: up of the voter rules, why they don't want mail ballots, 693 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 2: all those parts of the which they said is this 694 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 2: is voter suppression, it's Jim crowlaw. If we get it 695 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,280 Speaker 2: at the start, are we going to have two weeks 696 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 2: of Tim Kaine and Murphy and these guys being forced 697 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 2: to go to the Senate and yeah, they're yeah. 698 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 9: But the problem still is is that there's still no 699 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 9: legislation going to the President's desk unless they eliminate the 700 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 9: filibuster or they get through it a different way. Some 701 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 9: people have suggested this whole quote unquote talking filibuster thing, 702 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 9: which is you make the Democrats talk until they drop. 703 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 9: The problem for that is is that the Republicans would 704 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 9: have to staff the Senate floor with senators for just 705 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,839 Speaker 9: as long as that goes on for and I don't 706 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:52,319 Speaker 9: know if they can physically do that, right, Like, I 707 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 9: think there's a lot of very old senators like for instance, 708 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 9: John corn And is up for re election. He's seventy 709 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 9: four years old, right, Like, so can he stay there 710 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 9: for three weeks straight? Like? Can can some of these 711 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 9: other older senators do that? Like you know, Chuck Grassley 712 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 9: is a very older guy. I mean, you know, great senator, 713 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:12,919 Speaker 9: but very old guy. 714 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 5: Uh. 715 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 9: You know these guys out in Idaho like Mike Crapo 716 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 9: and and and Jim Rish. I mean they're old guys, right, Like, 717 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,320 Speaker 9: I mean the average the mean age of a senator, 718 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 9: a Republican senator, I believe he is sixty four sixty 719 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 9: five years old, right, And and that's including people who 720 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,399 Speaker 9: are in their thirties and forties, like guys like Tim 721 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 9: she who are really. 722 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 2: Not yeah, hey, in one second, we're gonna go to break. 723 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 2: They sound like mere kids. We're gonna get into this 724 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 2: or is our hold up the ability of the Republican 725 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 2: Senate to step up here anyway? Med Bull on the 726 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 2: other side for the Lord on the hot com, we 727 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 2: will playing the rock God we were joice. 728 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:58,919 Speaker 9: Let let's say sick. 729 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 8: Use your host Stephen k. 730 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 2: Back Okay, Seapack in a couple of weeks.

I want your observations on this. 746 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,760 Speaker 14: Didn't say who he intends to support, but again double 747 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 14: down on who he believes the Republican Party should not nominate, 748 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 14: and that is former President Donald Trump. 749 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,879 Speaker 11: Cornan saying I think President Trump's time is passed him by, 750 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 11: and he adds, I don't think President Trump understands that 751 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 11: when you run in the general election, you've got to 752 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 11: appeal to voters beyond your race. President Trump fed that 753 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:26,800 Speaker 11: fantasy by repeatedly claiming the election was stolen. The President's 754 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:27,920 Speaker 11: actions were reckless. 755 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:31,280 Speaker 15: Do you believe that the president committed impeachable offenses. 756 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,800 Speaker 8: I'm going to listen to the what's presented. 757 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 11: It is our responsibility to get to the bottom of 758 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 11: what exactly happened due to Russian involvement in our election. 759 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 14: This question of whether there are any ties to the 760 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 14: Trump campaign, that's a legitimate area of inquiry, and the 761 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 14: committees engaged in that. 762 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:47,800 Speaker 8: It's not a witch hunt. 763 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 3: It is a. 764 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 11: Legitimate area of inquiry. 765 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 15: We simply do not taking classified documents out of a 766 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:57,440 Speaker 15: secure facility. These creative service dates for himself, which is 767 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 15: I think very very serious is basically something that he's 768 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,359 Speaker 15: admitted to a maturer facts. 769 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 11: And as Monaco is a lifelong public servant, I believe 770 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 11: she's well qualified to service Deputy Attorney General, and I 771 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,719 Speaker 11: plan to support her nomination. I have a lot of 772 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 11: admiration and respect. 773 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 2: For Director Mueller. 774 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,919 Speaker 11: John Corner of Texas told CBS News he simply doesn't 775 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,280 Speaker 11: think Donald Trump can get elected president. 776 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 2: Quite a statement from Senator Cornet. 777 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:25,880 Speaker 14: He won't be supporting former President Trump, and neither should 778 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 14: other Republicans. You believe the former president's time has passed. 779 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:30,399 Speaker 4: I do. 780 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,440 Speaker 10: While Cornyn fought Trump, Ken Paxton has always stood by 781 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 10: the President. 782 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:42,800 Speaker 9: He's done a terrific job for Texas and for our country. 783 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 2: Attorney General Ken Paxton a really great attorney general. I'm 784 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 2: Jim Paxton and I approved this message. Matt Boyle, pretty 785 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:56,760 Speaker 2: hard hitting there, sir. Your observations, Yeah, well. 786 00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 9: I think it's abundantly clear now that in the ten 787 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:03,359 Speaker 9: days since the Republican primary in Texas, John Cornyn has 788 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 9: blown his opportunity to secure an endorsement from President Trump. 789 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 9: At least as it stands right now, all the reporting 790 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 9: suggests that John Cornyn will not be endorsed by President 791 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:20,360 Speaker 9: Trump at least anytime soon. We'll see if that possibly changes. 792 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,759 Speaker 9: You never know with President Trump, right like, so again 793 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 9: I would just say. 794 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 2: Hold it, hold it, hold it. Whoa who whoa whoa 795 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:27,839 Speaker 2: wo hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. You're 796 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 2: giving us a scoop. This is kind of a bombshell. 797 00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 2: Can you just hit rewind or repeat that? 798 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 9: Yeah. I think that it's abundantly clear that John Cornyan 799 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 9: has blown his opportunity to win a Trump endorsement ahead 800 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 9: of the Texas runoff. Again, all the proper caveats here, 801 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 9: this could change at any given moment, but it does 802 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:51,920 Speaker 9: appear as though the President, who was apparently ready to 803 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 9: endorse Sean Cornyan after the primary, after all of those 804 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 9: things came out, many of those things in that ad, 805 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 9: which is a very brutal ad, over the last week 806 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 9: or so, I think the President has given serious pause 807 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:05,799 Speaker 9: to this. 808 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 2: All this. 809 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 9: I have not spoken to the President, so I'm not 810 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 9: speaking for him, but I'm just saying that all indications 811 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 9: are that it does not appear as though the President 812 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 9: will be endorsing John Cornyn anytime soon. In addition to that, 813 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 9: I think that we have now both sides were kind 814 00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 9: of waiting to see if the President endorse somebody for 815 00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:31,840 Speaker 9: the week or so after the primary. Now the campaign 816 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 9: is back in full swing, right, So Cornyin's team is 817 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 9: out running a really stupid ad attacking Ken Paxton for 818 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 9: supposedly stealing a pen a decade ago. And now Pastin's 819 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 9: out with this brutal response, and so the campaign is 820 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:52,360 Speaker 9: back in full swing. Both sides are now campaigning again 821 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 9: after the primary, and as we enter the runoff, and 822 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,239 Speaker 9: again I think that the edge is this is Ken 823 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 9: Paxton's race to lose right like or win, win or lose. 824 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 9: Ken Paxton is the candidate in the driver's seat going 825 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 9: into the Texas Senate runoff John Cornyn. It does not 826 00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:18,600 Speaker 9: appear to have a clear pathway to victory without a 827 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 9: Trump endorsement, and even with a Trump endorsement, the numbers 828 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,319 Speaker 9: are a little bit muddled and we don't even know 829 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,240 Speaker 9: if that would be enough, which I think. 830 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,959 Speaker 2: Also call it hang on your hang on, slow down. 831 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 2: You're dropping bomb shows here.
