Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's that time time time, time.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Luck and load. The Michael Verie Show is on the air.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Pattie O'Brien, expirish assassin, his trademark, A superstitious man. He
leaves a tiny keepsake from his good luck bracelet on
every victim he kills. Scotland Yard would love to get
their hands on that piece of evidence.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
You think about what the Trump administration has been up to.
So the border is basically closed, We're seeing so few
people coming over, deportations in earnest and economic policy tariffs.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
This guy.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Is doing some pretty amazing things. So here is Steve Whitcoff,
the US Special Envoy to the Middle East. He was
on with CNN on some sorry he was on CNN
with Jake Tapper when he said, we are miles closer
to ending the war in Ukraine. That war would have
(01:15):
never ended had there been a second Biden or a
Kamala Harris administration, and the United States would have played
no part in ending the war. Trump is going to
will an end to this war, which is good for
the world.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
As we understand it, and please correct us if we're wrong.
Putent's demands include one, the complete surrender of Ukrainian forces
in Kursk. That's that Russian region that Ukraine seized. Two
international recognition that Ukrainian territory seized by Russia no longer
belongs to Ukraine. Three limits on Ukraine's ability to mobilize
(01:55):
its military and for a halt of Western military aid
to Ukraine, and a ban on foreign peacekeepers such as
French or British soldiers in Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Is that accurate?
Speaker 4 (02:08):
And if that is accurate, it does sound as though
Putin wants to keep the land that he sees and
then he wants Ukraine to not be able to defend
itself in the future. Is Trump worried that accepting these
conditions might just set the stage for another Russian invasion.
Speaker 5 (02:22):
Of Ukraine, Jake, I would not call your description entirely accurate.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Look back before.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
This visit, there was another visit, and before that visit,
the two sides were miles apart in where they were.
The two sides are today a lot closer. We had
some really positive results coming out of Saudi Arabia discussions
led by our National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and our
Secretary of State Marco Rubio. I described my conversation with
(02:53):
President Putin as equally positive. So the two sides have
if we've narrowed the differences between them, and now we're
sitting at the table. I was with the president all
day yesterday. I'll be with him today. We're sitting with
him discussing how to narrow it even further. That's how
I would describe it.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
Can you tell us where they are right now? The
four points I just outlined might be a meeting or
too old.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Where is Russia right now?
Speaker 5 (03:21):
No, I think the four regions are of critical importance here,
and we're in discussions with Ukraine.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
We're in discussions with.
Speaker 5 (03:32):
All the Stakeholderpean European countries, so that includes France, Britain, Norway, Finland,
the whole, the whole host and we're in discussions with
the Russians too about those regions. We're also in discussions
about all kinds of other elements that would be encompassed
(03:52):
in a ceasefire.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
It's not even two months in. You can hate him
all you want, and there are people who do, but
there is no doubt that he is taking action with
the intention of making the world a more peaceful place.
There is no doubt about that. Here's Mike Walt's National
(04:16):
security advisor on Fox News.
Speaker 6 (04:18):
I'll take President Trump and dealing with the likes of
she of Kem Jong Un with Putin and others, certainly
ahead of his predecessor. And really, as both President Putin
and Zelensky said on our first call just a few
weeks ago, only President Trump could drive this to an end.
(04:40):
Only President Trump can bring this war to Look, Jackie,
we know who we're dealing with, We know who are
dealing with on all sides, and we are going to
engage in diplomacy. We are engaging in diplomacy, and that
will involve both carrots and sticks to get both sides
of the table, but to also resolve this in a
(05:02):
way that is permanent and enduring.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Pete hegg Seth talked about the Pitching Bay Committee here,
Pete hegg Seth making the point that peace through strength
is back.
Speaker 7 (05:23):
Well, it all went down because an era of peace
through strength is back.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Just like in his first term.
Speaker 7 (05:29):
President Trump had to deal with the weakness of President
Obama and get rid of ISIS, and he did it
more quickly than anybody else.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
We're sitting on four years of deferred.
Speaker 7 (05:37):
Maintenance from Joe Biden, where in particular, when you talk
about the Houthis, they were allowed for over one hundred
times to shoot at US ships, to shoot at commercial shipping.
Four months ago, when we sent a ship through, it
was shot at seventeen times.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Ships haven't been.
Speaker 7 (05:52):
Able to go through for over a year without being
shot at. Freedom of navigation is basic, it's a core
national interest, and Trump has said we will restore that
and we will be unrelenting. I'm going to be very clear,
this campaign is about freedom of navigation and restoring deterrence.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
The minute the Houthies say we'll.
Speaker 7 (06:12):
Stop shooting at your ships, we'll stop shooting at your drones,
this campaign will end. But until then it will be unrelenting.
We got the reports last night, Maria. The Houthi capital
felt like an earthquake, a dozens and dozens of precision
heavy munitions dropping precisely on the targets that we wanted
to hit. Sending a very clear message, and the message
(06:35):
is clear to Iran as well, and the President said
it in his truth. Your support of the Houthis needs
to end immediately.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
We will hold you.
Speaker 7 (06:44):
Accountable as the sponsor of this proxy, and I echo
his statement, we will not be nice about it. This
is not the Biden administration. The message is clear, we
will come after the Houthis until they stop shooting at
our ships, and the Iranians better stay out of it.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Precisely, what else is President Trump up to? Oh, just
closing the border here he was talking to Cheryl Atkinson.
Speaker 8 (07:08):
We have ninety nine percent improvement from Biden and that
was his better you know, he started around the election
working a little bit harder, and they got a little
bit better. Was horrible still, so we're comparing it to
his best time, comparing it to the worst time. It's like,
it's not even you can't calculate it. How much better?
(07:31):
So we have now the best border we've ever had,
and we did that in a period of five weeks.
Pretty amazing.
Speaker 9 (07:38):
Actually, does that imply that we don't need to add
a bunch of money and forces. In fact, maybe you
could draw down or reappoint the force and manpower that's
down there, and we don't need new laws and new money.
Speaker 8 (07:52):
Well, you don't need very many new laws, because I
did it without new laws. I did it twice without
new laws. I had the best border ever and now
I think we're going to beat those numbers. Actually think
these numbers might be slightly better, and we're going to
get them better yet. And I said during the speech
on Tuesday night, I said that you didn't need new anything,
(08:13):
you just needed a new president for that.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
I said, closed the boom, they closed the border. He
could have done the same thing.
Speaker 8 (08:19):
I think he wanted open borders better.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
The Michael Varies Show continues to use use no, it's
just delightful.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
On the show today we've talked about the Sundays, the
Sunday talkers, the political shows.
Speaker 9 (08:38):
And.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
The bureaucrats, the Democrats and the mediocrats are all working
together along with the school teachers and the professors and
the Chinese to undercut the Trump administration and the difference
between Trump too point zero in the first term is
(09:02):
this time we got we got a team of folks,
a real team of folks that each in their own way,
are doing what Trump wants done, not serving their own agenda.
Do I need to remind you who the Secretary of
State was, who was a former excellent president who was
running his own Do I need to remind you about
(09:23):
pomp Mike POMPEII, no, I don't. Well, here's Marco Rubio.
This is clip number five point fifteen Ramon, he's on
Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan. When he says, uh,
look they're talking about Khalil my mood a little uh. Actually,
(09:46):
let's start with five point ten. The little terror advocate
graduated from Colombia still hanging around there. Who's the big
Hamas agitator?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Well, not just a student. We're going to do more.
Speaker 10 (10:02):
In fact, every day now we're approving visa revocations, and
if that visa led to a green card, the green
card process as well.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
And here's why. It's very simple.
Speaker 10 (10:11):
When you apply to enter the United States and you
get a visa, you are a guest and you're coming
as a student, you're coming as a tourist or what
have you. And in it you have to make certain assertations.
And if you tell us when you apply for a visa,
I'm coming to the US to participate in pro Hoomaus events,
that runs counter to the foreign policy interest in the
United States of America.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
It's that simple. So you lied, you came.
Speaker 10 (10:31):
If you had told us that you were going to
do that, we never would have given you the visa.
Now you're here. Now you do it, So you lied
to us, You're out. It's that simple.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
It's a misrepresentation. If if you've been nominated for a
cabinet position that's going to require FBI. I'm just going
to require Senate approval, confirmation, and you lie about a
material fact when the FBI does their background check, not
(11:03):
only will you be prevented from serving in the cabinet,
you could be prosecuted. Ask Henry Quaar. Henry Quaar was
the mayor of San Antone and he was being nominated
for Health and Human Services in the Clinton administration. And
(11:24):
Quaar had a mistress on the side. And when the
FBI and he answered the question, no, he did not.
And when the FBI did the investigation, it turned out
not only was she his mistress, she was basically a
second wife. This thing had been going on, and it
was it wasn't real hard to catch him. He had
quite the reputation as a ladies man. He was prosecuted
(11:46):
for that. So Rubio, I'm sorry that was not on
with Margaret Brennan. I got my details wrong.
Speaker 9 (11:54):
That was.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
What's her name, Kristen Welker. Oh, I don't like her.
On NBC's Meet the Press. This is Rubio with Margaret Brennan. Rubio,
I can't say it enough. I'm not a Rubio fan boy.
He's trying to make me one. He's doing a great job.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Listen to this.
Speaker 11 (12:13):
I want to ask you about a decision you made
to revoke a student visa for someone at Columbia University
this past week. The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes,
the administration needs to be careful. It's targeting real promoters
of terrorism, not breaking the great promise of a green
card by deporting anyone with controversial political views. Can you
(12:33):
substantiate any form of material support for terrorism, specifically to
Hamas from this Columbia student or was it simply that
he was espousing a controversial political point of view.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Well, not just the student. We're going to do more.
Speaker 10 (12:48):
In fact, every day now we're approving visa revocations. And
if that visa led to a green card, the green
card process as well.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
And here's why. It's very simple.
Speaker 10 (12:56):
When you apply to enter the United States and you
get a visa, you are a guest and you're coming
as a student, you're coming as a tourist or what
have you, and in it you have to make certain assertations.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
And if you tell us when you.
Speaker 10 (13:06):
Apply for a visa, I'm coming to the US to
participate in pro Hoomas events that runs counter to the
foreign policy interest in the United States of America.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
It's that simple. So you lied, you came.
Speaker 10 (13:16):
If you had told us that you were going to
do that, we never would have given you the visa.
Now you're here, Now you do it. You lied to us,
You're out. It's that simple.
Speaker 11 (13:24):
But is there any But is there any evidence of
a link to terrorism or is it just his your
point of view?
Speaker 10 (13:31):
Yeah, they take over I mean do you not. I mean
you should watch the news. These guys take over entire buildings.
They vandalized college, they shut down.
Speaker 11 (13:39):
I'm asking about this justification for the revocation of his visa.
Was there any evident?
Speaker 10 (13:45):
So was the negotiator on it, negotiating on behalf of
people that took over a campus, that vandalize buildings, negotiating
over what that's a crime in and of itself that
they're involved in, being the negotiator of the spokesperson this, that,
and the other.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
We don't want it.
Speaker 10 (13:57):
We don't need these people in our country that we
never should have allowed him in the first place if
he had told us, I'm going over there, and I'm
going over there to become the spokesperson and one of
the leaders of a movement that's going to turn one
of your allegedly elite colleges upside down. People can't even
go to school, library buildings being vandalized.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
We never would have let him in. We never would
have let him in to begin with.
Speaker 10 (14:16):
And now that he's doing it and he's here, he's
going to leave, and so are others, and we're going
to keep doing it. And by the way, I find
it ironic that a lot of these people out there
defending the First Amendment speech alleged free speech rights, of
these Hamas sympathizers, they had no problem, okay, pressuring social
media to censor American political speech. So I think it's
ironic and hypocritical. But the bottom line is this, if
(14:39):
you are in this country to promote Hamas, to promote
terrorist organizations, to participate in vandalism, to participate in accent
rebellion and riots on campus, we never would have let
you in if we had known that.
Speaker 11 (14:50):
And now that we not only pro Palestinian people who
are going to have their visas remote provoked or other
points of view as well.
Speaker 10 (14:57):
No, I think anybody who's here in favor, but we
want to get rid of trained that I gang members,
they're terrorists too. The President designated them, asked me to designate,
and I did, as a terrorist organization. We want to
get rid of them as well. We don't want terrorists
in America. I don't know how hard that is to understand.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
We want people.
Speaker 10 (15:13):
We don't want people in our country. They're going to
be committing crimes and undermining our national security or the
public safety. It's not simple, especially people that are here
as guests.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
That is what a visa is.
Speaker 10 (15:22):
I don't know what we've gotten it in our head
that a visa is some sort of birthright.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
It is not.
Speaker 10 (15:27):
It is a visitor into our country, and if you
violate the terms of your visitation, you are going to leave.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
We are a nation divided. There are people in this
country who have, either by O mission or CO mission,
made it possible for horrible people to come to this
country and do great damage to our people and our treasury.
(15:55):
And what you're finally seeing is a movement to change that. Folks.
Pinch yourself you're not in a dream. But if this
won't last forever, these are special times. We will look
back on these as the house in days. Trust me,
Michael Berry, The Michael Berry Show, Oh yes, it being
(16:19):
in Saint Patrick's day. My favorite Irish groups Davy Arthur
and the Furies. Don't email me and say no the Chieftains, no,
if drop kick Murphy's okay, but do you know anything
about the Furies?
Speaker 6 (16:39):
No?
Speaker 1 (16:39):
I just like the one I already know. Okay, Well
a lot time. Spend some time with the Furies and
get back to me, because they're fantastic. Last year, California
became the first state in the nation to offer healthcare
to illegal aliens.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Terrible idea.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Governor Gavin Newsom claimed it would quote only this was
his word, It would only cost the taxpayer six point
five billion dollars. Well, we know how that always works out.
In the first year loan, it costs the taxpayer's nine
point five billion dollars, and that number is expected to
(17:22):
grow even larger. Well, guess what happens next. The state's
Department of Finance is now asking for a billion dollar
emergency loan from the general fund. You see, you have
to understand that everything in government is a zero sum game.
(17:44):
Every dollar you spend on X is a dollar you
don't spend on Why, every dollar you spend is a
dollar you take from taxpayers. Right, So, the day the
illegal alien shows up, he's paid nothing into the system,
(18:06):
he starts getting free healthcare. Some of them come here
illegally for the sole purpose of the free healthcare. I mean,
it's a good gig. You got free schooling, free healthcare,
a phone rent, all these goodies, and you're a bad
(18:28):
person for opposing it. Except you're an adult, so you
know that what's really happening is money is being taken
from the core services and being given to illegal aliens.
The decision is being made. That's why it's called the
(18:48):
Great replacements theory. The great replacement theory says that you,
the American citizen, are being replaced by illegal aliens because
they vote the way they're supposed to and their cheap
labor for the people who want that. CBS forty seven
in Fresno has the story, we want to make.
Speaker 12 (19:11):
Sure that we protect those hardworking people that contribute millions
of dollars to our economy.
Speaker 13 (19:17):
Along with Speaker Robert Revasa simply members as Maraadosuria and
doctor Jaquina Rambula hosting this roundtable in Fresno Thursday, asking
the community about what resources immigrants may need as the
Trump administration continues to focus on deportations and the border.
Speaker 12 (19:33):
If we think about immigrants in the state of California,
immigrants can contribute billions of dollars into taxes into the
state budget, and so what we need to recognize is
that their contributions are extremely important for us being the
fifth largest economy.
Speaker 13 (19:50):
In the world, and that's state budget now front and
Center for Republicans and Sacramento after the Newsome administration announced
in a memo the state was short on money for
medical the state healthcare plan for low income Californians, including
undocumented immigrants. Originally, the state believed the program would need
(20:10):
about six billion dollars, but they now estimate it'll cost
nearly nine point five billion.
Speaker 6 (20:16):
This is outrageous.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
It is not affordable.
Speaker 14 (20:18):
It puts the healthcare coverage for low income citizens in
California at grave risk, and it needs to stop. We
need to take care of our own low income families first,
not provide free healthcare to all the illegal immigrants who
show up.
Speaker 13 (20:32):
Republican assembly Member from San Diego carl Do Mayo, echoing
what many Republican lawmakers are feeling. State Senator Roger Nirlow
from Fair Oaks's it's likely other factors like increased drug
costs and more seniors on medical are also contributing to
the budget shortfelt. Still, he says it's unacceptable.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
The way that the costs have ballooned.
Speaker 7 (20:53):
I believe it's clearly unaffordable, and it comes at the
expense of other budget items that would benefit citizens.
Speaker 13 (21:02):
And Governor Newsom recently said on his podcast he still
thinks it makes financial sense to have undocumented immigrants on
the medical plan because if they aren't covered, he says,
they'll still cost the state money.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
From emergency room visits.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
New York Post headline, Trump ties for highest approval he's
ever had, as more Americans say US is on the
right track than at any time in twenty years of
this poll. This is the NBC News poll that was
released Sunday. The same poll that's been conducted for many
(21:41):
decades now reveals the highest answer to the question being
the US is on the right track. This despite the media,
the Democrats the bureaucrats, the professors, the teachers, all conspiring
(22:02):
against him, telling you.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
It's the end of the world.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
I'll tell you, the single most important thing that Trump
does is deport illegal aliens and close down the border.
That's the dirty little secret that Democrats don't want to
admit is that the public, including a good percentage of Democrats,
want the illegal aliens deported and they want the border closed.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
But they can't admit that.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
They have to keep saying that they're the people of
great mercy and compassion and Republicans are cruel. They have
to keep telling you because sometimes I think you forget
how important it is that we have illegal aliens. Otherwise,
as John McCain said, you pay fifty cents for a
head of cabbage instead of a nickel, and you don't
(22:56):
want to pay more for a head of cabbage. I mean,
you're willing to sacrif Pfeischer kid to a pedophile, getting
a head on collision by a drunk driver, have your
job stolen and your house burgled so you can pay
a little less for cabbage. Right. That's the argument that
people out of touch, people that don't bear the consequences
(23:20):
of illegal immigration that's the argument they make. Trump is
so darned popular because he's tapped into a nerve. He's
tapped into a wellspring of Republicans and Democrats and independents
who say, Hey, I might disagree on this or that,
but I want the illegal aliens gone, and stop telling
(23:44):
me how good they are for me. Because I got
hit by one and he didn't have insurance, or my
wife got hit by one who's a drunk driver, or
any number of other problems. You can't go to the
agency room in Houston and get in to see a doctor,
even though you're bleeding profusely. You can't get a room.
(24:06):
You can't get treatment because you've got people out there.
You've got the entirety of the home depot, parking lot
waiting in the room, in the waiting room at the hospital.
These are the costs of illegal immigration, education, welfare, healthcare.
It's going to bankrupt California and we're not going to
bail them out. I had Carey believe with the worst
(24:30):
thing that ever happened to America was slavery.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
The Michael Berry Show, and the.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Best thing that ever happened to slavery was America and
the Republican part Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was on Fox
News Fox News Sunday with Maria Bartiromo, where he laid
out President Trump's agenda to rebuild America's military.
Speaker 7 (24:57):
Ship buildings, the long range munition, hypersonics, long range drones,
Golden Dome, Southern Border. The President has laid up very
clearly his agenda to rebuild the US military.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
He did it in his first term. He's going to
do it again.
Speaker 7 (25:11):
This eight percent has been highly mischaracterized, Maria.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
It's not a cut.
Speaker 7 (25:15):
It's a reallocation away from Biden priorities toward Green New
Deal stuff, toward President Trump priorities. So we have revived
the warrior ethos inside the military. We're reestablishing deterrence and
per the President's direction, we're going to rebuild the military.
You're going to see a historic investment in the weapons
and modernization required to stand up to our enemies.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
President Trump has committed to that. He's asked me to
be a part of it.
Speaker 7 (25:40):
We're going to work with Capitol Hill to do it.
We're going to be fiscally responsible with taxpayer dollars, Mariam.
We're going to pass an audit we're going to work
with DOGE. We're going to find there's plenty of waste
fraud abuse in the DoD and we're going to find it.
At the same time, we're going to reinvest overwhelmingly in
systems and rebuild this military because our kids and grandkids
require and President Trump's.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Leading the way, not because he wants to get us
into war, but because he believes in peace through strength.
I suspect we will have to engage in some military
activity with the group known as the Huties. They are
(26:23):
so named because that is the name of their their
leader they are. The actual name of the organization is
Ansar Allah. And this organization really came to notice as
(26:45):
part of Yemen's civil war. And what ends up happening
is this group is a group of Shia. They're known
as the Zaidi Shia. And you'll remember the reason Iran
and Saudi Arabia hate each other is the Irani Muslims
(27:10):
are what are called Shia Muslims Shia. The Saudi Muslims
are Sunni Muslims. So Saudi Arabia ended up backing the
government of Yemen when this upstart rebel group, the UTIs
(27:30):
in Yemen was getting backing and training and supplemental servicemen
from Iran, and so you have a satellite war going
on there, much as we did with the Soviet Union
in Nicaragua. So Yemen became a place where the Yamans
were being We're getting firsthand experience and a lot of
(27:52):
money pouring in, and these Hutis started becoming emboldened. So
this terror group kind of like the Somali pirates, just
much better trained, much better equipment, a much better organization.
The Houtis have come to realize that just like the
(28:13):
Somali pirates, if we organize this thing, we can make
a lot of money. Attacking commercial shipping. Well, this commercial
shipping affects US and the rest of the world. Here
is Marco Rubio on NBC's Meet the Press with Christen
Welker talking about how many attacks we're discussing here, this
(28:34):
is a big deal.
Speaker 10 (28:35):
Well, first of all, the problem here is that this
is a very important shipping lane, and in the last
year and a half, last eighteen months to husies have
struck or attacked one hundred and seventy four naval vessels
of the United States, attacking the US Navy directly one
hundred and seventy four times and one hundred and forty
five times they've attacked commercial shipping. So we basically have
a band of pirates, you know, with guided precision anti
(28:56):
ship weaponry and attracting toll system and one of the
most important shipping lanes in the world. That's just not sustainable.
We are not going to have these people controlling which
ships can go through and which ones cannot. And so
your question is how long will this go on?
Speaker 2 (29:10):
It will go on.
Speaker 10 (29:11):
Until they no longer have the capability.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
To do that.
Speaker 11 (29:15):
Well, what does US intelligence tell us at this point?
Because the US had been conducting strikes for some time
but has not.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Stopped the Hoho thies.
Speaker 11 (29:25):
So what's going to be different right now? Do you
have more fidelity in the intelligence that would make this
more successful?
Speaker 10 (29:33):
Well, those strikes were a retaliation strike, so they launched
one missile, we hit the missile launcher, or we sent
something to do.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
This is not a message, this is not a one off.
Speaker 10 (29:41):
This is an effort to deny them the ability to
continue to constrict and control shipping.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
And this is not going to happen.
Speaker 10 (29:49):
We're not going to have these guys, these people with
weapons able to tell us where our ships can go,
where the ships of all the world can go. By
the way, it's not just the US we're doing the
world a favor. We're doing the entire world the favor
by getting rid of these guys and their ability to
strike global shipping. That's the mission here, and it will
continue until that's carried out. That never happened before. The
Biden administration didn't do that. All the Biden administration would
(30:11):
do is they would respond to an attack. These guys
would launch one rocket, We'd hit the rocket launcher.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
That's it.
Speaker 10 (30:16):
This is an effort to take away their ability to
control global shipping in that part of the world.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
That's just not going to happen anymore.
Speaker 10 (30:22):
And it could be will continue until that's finished.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
It could involve ground raids.
Speaker 10 (30:27):
Well, those are military decisions to be made, but I've
heard no talk of ground raids. I don't think there's
a necessity for it right now. I can tell you
that as of last night, some of the key people
involved in those missile launches are no longer with us,
and I can tell you that some of the facilities
that they use are no longer existing, and that will continue. Look,
it's bottom line, an easy way to understand it. Okay,
these guys are able to control what ships can go
(30:49):
through there.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
They've attacked the US.
Speaker 10 (30:50):
Navy one hundred and seventy four times. They've attacked the
United States Navy. We're not going to have people sitting
around with the missiles attacking the US Navy. It's not
going to happen, not under President Trump.
Speaker 1 (31:02):
That's an important caveat, because it did happen under Joe Biden.
The Irani's attacked, the hutis attacked. You know, I get
emails from a lot of you when your kids sign
up for the military or go in as an officer,
(31:24):
and I get emails from you, and I got to
tell you, I always pause for a moment because you're
always so proud your kid that they're willing to do
this very mature thing. And I always think to myself,
(31:45):
does our government honor this kid's service the way I do?
In a way certainly his parents do. Because when you
don't allow our military to engage and give them the
tools and the authority to win, you're putting them You're
putting them in great danger. And I believe that Donald
(32:07):
Trump is determined that if our men and women are
used in combat, they're going to have the tools in
the authority to win. And that is peace through strength.
See that's how Obama and Biden invited bad men to
do bad things. Those men fear Trump. So peace through
(32:30):
strength often means be ready for the fight, and then
you won't have to have it fail to be ready
for the fight and you invite
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Its good good, thank you, and good night.
